Water Margin people

Chapter 22 Have you met someone who touched porcelain?

Although the parting was a bit sad, it was quickly washed away by joy. Sun Lei's mood improved greatly when he thought of the colorful world at the foot of the mountain.

After going to town for a big meal, Sun Lei suddenly thought of Lu Zhishen again. Usually, the two of them sneaked down the mountain to drink and eat meat. Now that there is no one on the table, it is inevitable that he misses the one next to him who is always rough and rude. Straightforward guy.

Touching the round hat on his head, Sun Lei didn't like it a little. The hair had only grown for more than a month, and it was still a little short. It was very conspicuous when the hat was taken off.

Seeing a Fan Yangli on the street, Sun Lei bought one directly. This white Fanyang Li looks very good, even a bit fashionable. It is a hat made of white felt wool. The body of the hat is semicircular, and the brim is It is wide and shaped like a lotus leaf, and there is a bunch of red tassels on the top, which can block the sun and wind and rain. You can't see your hair when you wear it. It is really a rare and good hat.

Wearing a Fan Yangli, carrying a whistle stick, and bought a cloak to put on, Sun Lei finally felt a bit like a knight walking in the rivers and lakes.

Sun Lei has already figured out where to go, Tokyo, now the capital of the country, also known as Bianjing, which should be the most lively place in the world, how can I do it without knowing it.

There are two roads from Mount Wutai to Tokyo. One is to go down the mountain from the east and go to Beijing Daming Mansion, and the other is to go down the mountain from the west to go to Taiyuan Mansion and Dongluzhou to go south to Mengzhou, and then go to Tokyo along the Yellow River.

Sun Lei must take a short cut if he wants to go to Tokyo. The road from Daming Mansion is flat, and he can reach Tokyo in just over a month.

After asking about the road, Sun Lei headed south along the main road. Sun Lei already knew that there are not many sutou on the road, so you must have a plan for your journey. If you miss a sutou, you can only sleep in the wild.

After driving for several days, Sun Lei finally arrived at Zhending Mansion, which was the first big city he encountered after descending Mount Wutai.

Sun Lei has money, so he went straight in when he saw Dacheng, and was ready to have a good meal and rest. These days, he had to eat and sleep in the open for the journey, and because many restaurants and shops were opened in remote places, it can be said that he had nowhere to go. There is only one family in the area of ​​more than ten miles. Sun Lei is worried that he will not enter a black shop, and only dare to rest when he encounters a village with a lot of people.

"Hey, this person is not at ease walking in the rivers and lakes!"

Sun Lei sighed, and thought of Lu Zhishen again. If Master Lu was here, he would be able to block open and hidden arrows in front of him.

Zhending Mansion is considered a big city. Since the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were occupied by the Liao Kingdom, the Liao people were eager to move and kept attacking the frontier defense of Hebei Road. Big cities like Zhending Mansion became the safest places, supporting the development of West Hebei Road. border defense.

It is also very common to wear Fan Yangli and a whistle stick on his back. It must be close to the Taihang Mountains. Banditry is also very serious in this area, and passers-by often carry weapons such as whistle sticks.

After entering Zhending Mansion, Sun Lei found an inn with a good location to live in first, asked Xiao Er to bring some food and wine to the room, and went to sleep directly after eating.

Sun Lei is not in a hurry to go to Tokyo alone. Seeing the prosperity of Zhending Mansion, he wants to stay in Zhending Mansion for a few more days. It is fun to see street jugglers and listen to roadside shows every day.

"Da Lang! Da Lang, save my son!"

Sun Lei was eating some fruits bought on the side of the road, and was about to go to the street where he watched juggling yesterday to watch juggling again, when suddenly a ragged old woman ran over and hugged his leg and howled.

When Sun Lei saw that she was an old woman, she didn't dare to move, and she cried out inwardly, this ancient porcelain toucher is here!
"Grandma, I don't know you!"

Sun Lei took a closer look and found that it didn't seem to be Pengci. Before he came, the old woman was sitting on the side of the road with a broken bowl in front of her. She was clearly a beggar.

"Grandma, are you hungry, these are for you!"

Sun Lei thought it was the old woman who wanted to eat, so he was about to pass the fruit in his hand to the old woman.

"Da Lang! Da Lang! Save my son! Save my son!"

The old woman didn't even look at the fruits, she was still crying, and the sad voice made everyone on the street look over.

No matter where, what era, people are always watching the excitement and it’s not too big of a deal. They gathered around in a while, and some mothers-in-law pointed and whispered, as if guessing that Sun Lei was an unfilial son, and his grandmother didn’t take care of him. .

Sun Lei really couldn't argue, he didn't know this old lady at all, so why did he talk about Dalang and his son.

"Grandma, you can use the money to buy food!"

Sun Lei only thought that the old woman was asking for money, so he took out some copper coins and handed them to the old woman, hoping that she would let go and go beg elsewhere.

"Da Lang, save my son, save my son!"

The old woman didn't even look at the money, and continued to cry, her voice hoarse.

"I said old woman, we are strangers, you are not willing to leave even if I give you money, are you trying to blackmail me!"

Sun Lei was a little angry, you asked for food, and I also gave me food and money, so what is life and death?
"What are you doing around here, do you want to be beaten, get out, get out of here!"

Seeing that there were more and more people around, Sun Lei felt so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger. He swung his whistle stick and knocked on the ground, making a gesture to hit him.

"Grandma, don't push yourself too far!"

Sun Lei struck the ground with his whistle stick, and made a dull "dong" sound on the stone slab.

"Dalang, go and save my son, go and save my son!"

Sun Lei wanted to scare the old lady, but who knew it was useless. The old lady gained strength instantly when she saw the whistle stick, and dragged Sun Lei to leave, which was still the direction out of the city.

Sun Lei was very angry, but he still couldn't move the whistle stick. After all, this is an old woman with white hair. Looking at the weather stains on her face, she is probably in her 60s. She is considered a long-lived person in this era. It is estimated that half of his life was lost when he fell to the ground. If this is the whistle stick, he will see the king of Hades.

"Grandma, don't worry about it for a while, I see that you are hungry too, eat something first, and then talk when you have strength."

Sun Lei's heart softened when he saw the old woman's sanity seemed a little unclear, she was crazy, a normal person would be afraid when seeing this whistle stick, but this old woman didn't react at all, her eyes were cloudy, she was probably half-crazy, that's why she recognized the wrong person.

Seeing a stall selling Chaos on the side of the road, Sun Lei helped the old woman and walked over.

"Fuck off the beggar, dirty my table and chairs, and affect my business!"

Seeing that Sun Lei didn't leave her alone, the old woman sat quietly at the table. Sun Lei got up and was about to buy two bowls of Chaos. Who knew that the street vendor who sold Chaos happened to come over and thought it was the beggar old woman who made Sun Lei unhappy. Go, ran over and yelled at the old woman, even waving the sackcloth on her shoulders to hit her.

The old woman was too frightened to speak, and held on to Sun Lei's shirt tightly, as if she had been yelled at like this many times, she lowered her head in fear and almost hid under the table.

"What's wrong with the beggar, can't afford your chaos?"

Sun Lei was on fire and had no place to vent, seeing the arrogance of the stall owner, he took out a handful of copper coins and slapped them on the table.

"Serve me two bowls of Chaos. The skin is thin and the meat is rich. If one is broken or the filling is not big enough or the skin is not thin enough, you can try my whistle stick. I promise you won't be able to get out of bed this month!"

Sun Lei waved his whistle stick, and hit the stall owner fiercely with the sound of breaking wind. The stall owner was too frightened to move, and couldn't dodge. He closed his eyes and the stick fell, ready to cry out in pain, and then rolled on the ground begging for mercy. , who would have thought that the stick would fall lightly on his shoulder like a fallen leaf.

"Remember my request! And the dishes and chopsticks must be washed in hot water."

Only then did Sun Lei put away his whistle stick and helped the old woman sit down.
