Three Wonders of Huashan

Chapter 30 I Heard You Are Invincible
The little girl is called Chen Ying, and the little boy is called Chen Xiong, but the little girl hates her father for selling them to old beggars, and she doesn't want to be named Chen anymore.And Yuan Shoucheng was kind to them, so he simply changed their names to Yuan Ying and Yuan Xiong.In addition to Mo Dabao and Mo Erbao who were old and had their legs broken, the other little beggars also included three boys and four girls, all under the age of ten.

Everyone washed up at the inn and had a hearty meal.Yuan Shoucheng hired a carriage and drove towards Huashan.

"Brother Yuan has a dead body lying in the middle of the road." Although the beggars are young, they are used to life and death.I wasn't too scared when I saw the corpse, I just reported it to Yuan Shoucheng.

The corpse was lying in the middle of the road. Yuan Shoucheng turned the corpse over and was surprised to see the face.The corpse was the old beggar.Although Yuan Shoucheng hated the old beggar's viciousness, but the old beggar's body appeared on their only way to Huashan for no reason. He knew that things must not be that simple.Looking around but seeing no one, Yuan Shoucheng felt uneasy. Several people worked together to dig a shallow pit on the side of the road, buried the old beggar hastily, and rushed to Huashan without stopping.

At sunset, only twenty or thirty miles away from Mount Hua, Yuan Shoucheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.He only heard Yuan Ying shouting in a trembling tone: "Brother Yuan has a ghost!" Without Yuan Ying saying anything, Yuan Shoucheng saw the corpse of the old beggar they had just buried in the morning reappeared in front of him.The body was hung upside down from a branch that jutted out into the middle of the road.Where have the people seen such a strange thing, they all gathered together to show their courage.

Yuan Shoucheng bowed his hands and saluted all around, and shouted loudly: "I don't know which senior punished this villain, please show up and see, Yuan will definitely thank you!" Returning birds, no one answered.

Yuan Shoucheng looked solemn, turned his head and said to the group of little beggars: "You all go to the carriage, I will drive the carriage, and we will rush to Huashan overnight." When everyone got into the carriage, Yuan Shoucheng ignored the old beggar's body and shook it Whip, drive away.It's just that the old beggar's body was hanging in the middle of the road, and it was inevitable that he bumped into the moving carriage. There was a bang, although it had been expected, it still shocked everyone.

The night road was very difficult, and Yuan Shoucheng didn't dare to walk too fast.It was midsummer at this time, the weather was extremely hot, and the cabin was even more stuffy.Someone poked his head out to enjoy the cool evening breeze, but Yuan Shoucheng pushed his head back and scolded, "Get out!"

"Oh, run over someone!" A voice rang out, and the carriage was jolted high before falling heavily.Everyone was stunned, Yuan Shoucheng managed to control the carriage, and hurriedly got out of the carriage to check.

"Ouch, ouch, my leg is broken!" It was an old beggar who spoke, and at the moment he was rolling all over the ground with his leg in his arms.Seeing the old beggar now, Yuan Shoucheng felt his heart pounding, and he was relieved when he saw clearly that he was a living person.

"I don't know where senior got hurt? This junior is rich and willing to compensate senior for his loss." Although Yuan Shoucheng has very little experience in the world, he is just an old beggar lying in the middle of the night in the middle of the night, plus all kinds of weird things that happened before. , Thinking with my toes, I also know that this old beggar is not simple anymore.

As soon as the old beggar heard that he was rich, he stood up slipperily, stared at Yuan Shoucheng and said, "Are you rich? How much will you pay me? Do you have 100 taels of silver?" The old beggar rubbed his hands happily.

"Okay, I'll pay the old man 100 taels!" After Yuan Shoucheng finished speaking, he took out a [-] taels of silver note from his pocket and handed it to the old beggar.

"Okay, okay, it's not a loss for the old beggar to come out this time, and it's not in vain for me to carry more than 100 catties and run for dozens of miles." The old beggar was so happy that he took the silver ticket and poked his teeth.

Yuan Shoucheng felt tense when he heard the words "more than 100 catties", but he didn't ask, he just said: "I also lost the money, please get out of the way, old man."

The old beggar stuffed the banknotes into his arms, waved his hands again and again and said, "No rush, no hurry, as I said just now, the 100 taels are my hard work for helping you move your things. You have run over my foot and you haven't lost any money yet." !"

Yuan Shoucheng knew that this matter might not be good, so he gritted his teeth and took out a hundred taels of silver note from his pocket to the old beggar, considering the group of little beggars behind him.

The old beggar excitedly took the silver bill and put it in his pocket, spread his hand, and said: "I made it, I made it, and then I will pay the fee for the old beggar's murder, both the money and the goods. The old beggar will leave immediately, there will be no embarrassment!"

Yuan Shoucheng knowingly asked: "Kill someone? I don't remember when I asked the old man to help me kill someone!"

The old beggar was so angry that he jumped up and cursed: "Are you going to renege on your debt? Look, come and have a look, I have brought all the corpses here."

The old beggar turned around and grabbed the body of the previous old beggar from the grass, and threw it to Yuan Shoucheng's feet. "1 taels of silver, bring it here, and I will let you go there."

"I didn't ask you to kill people. You killed people yourself and asked me to pay the bill. How can there be such a reason in the world!" Yuan Shoucheng was taken aback by the thrown corpse, but he still held on and refused to retreat half a step.

"Are you really unwilling to pay?" The old beggar stared at Yuan Shoucheng with wide eyes, looking like he was choosing someone to eat.

"No money!" Yuan Shoucheng's legs trembled, but his answer was firm.

"If I say that he hooked up with seven or eight thieves and wanted to do the murder and robbing halfway, you wouldn't pay the money!" The old beggar also lost his temper, as if he would not let you go without paying the money.

"This is just the old man's one-sided opinion. How about this, the old man punishes this villain, and the junior will give you 1000 taels as a reward, how about the old man let us go?" Yuan Shoucheng listened to the old beggar's words and did not dislike him. If this is resolved, everyone will be happy.

The old beggar touched the few sparse beards on his chin, contemplated for a long time, and finally reached out to take the bank note, and said: "This business has lost a lot, if I wait patiently for him to kill you, I will come and kill him again." Heck!"

"Senior Gao Yi, this junior is very grateful! Originally, a gentleman has the righteousness to make money, and the senior killed this villain for me, which is considered to have saved my life. Even if I give all the money to the old senior, it will be fine. It's just that I still need to save some money to settle them down, I hope the old man will forgive me!" Yuan Shoucheng also didn't know if what the old beggar said was true or not, if what he said was true, the man's grievances and grievances are clear, and the kindness of saving life will be repaid with his life in the future .

The old beggar waved his hand impatiently and said, "You talk a lot, but you just don't want to give money. How about it, I heard that you are invincible, and you can scare away powerful enemies just by standing. The old beggar wants to be with you Give it a try, if I win, you will give me all the money you have on your body, if you win, the old beggar will personally escort you to Mount Hua!"

Yuan Shoucheng was dumbfounded when he heard it: When did I gain a reputation of being invincible?He looked back at a group of little beggars poking their heads out of the carriage, and touched the remaining 3000 taels of silver bills in his pocket.He could only bite the bullet and agreed to the old beggar's challenge.
