Chapter 3 The Marquis of Qingliang
Although these people were abominable, they died and everything went away. Jiang Xiaobai couldn't bear to reveal their bodies in the wilderness, so he pulled several corpses and threw them into the pit. However, adhering to the principle of shameful waste, he searched all the money on them, not many, four gold coins, nine silver coins, and more than a dozen copper coins. Seeing the five of them lying in the pit, they didn't feel crowded. Jiang Xiaobai was a little puzzled. Could it be that they were really digging their own graves and digging the pit for five people?
After filling the pit with soil, Jiang Xiaobai became a little hungry. Although the roe deer on the bonfire was still emitting a fragrance, he was afraid of being poisonous and did not dare to eat it anymore. Fortunately, there were still prey, so he peeled a rabbit and roasted it to eat it.
After eating and drinking, sleepiness came. After taking a nap, the sky gradually became brighter. Jiang Xiaobai cleaned up, took a horse and went back.
At noon, Jiang Xiaobai arrived outside Qingliang City. Although his body had only been away for one day, his consciousness had been away for more than twenty years. Everything looked so familiar and so strange, as if it was a different world, and he couldn't help but sigh.
As soon as I entered the city gate, a few children on the roadside saw him, were very excited and shouted: "Little Marquis (Monkey)——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
If it were the past, Jiang Xiaobai would definitely have rushed over and scolded him. If the adults were not there, each person would slap him. But at this moment he smiled slightly, shook his head, ignored these children, and left straight. Looking back on the past, he was very sad.
I passed by a bun shop with several steamers outside. Now I had no business when I was over. There was a middle-aged woman sitting inside looking at the street in a daze.
Jiang Xiaobai was bumping on the road for a long time and felt hungry. He stepped forward and said, "Boss, please give me five buns."
The boss lady was an honest man. She stood up and looked embarrassed and said, "Little Marquis, you are the noble Marquis. We are just ordinary people and we have to support our family. It would be fine if you don't pay back the money you owe. If you owe, our family will really drink the northwest wind."
Jiang Xiaobai said: "How much money do you owe?"
The boss's wife thought about it, raised her three fingers and said, "Not many, only thirty copper coins, but we can't make so much money in a few days."
Jiang Xiaobai was convinced by himself at this time. He even had to buy buns on credit. The key was that he still had so much credit. This feeling was like instant noodles on the earth, which made him feel ashamed. He hurriedly took out a silver coin from his arms and threw it on the table, saying, "Sorry, I forgot! Get me five buns, don't look for the remaining money, even if it's interest!"
A silver coin can be changed into one hundred copper coins. The boss lady was slightly stunned. She looked at him, then looked at the silver coin again, and quickly picked it up and checked the authenticity. She couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw it was true and smiled and said, "I guess the little marquis's nobleman forgets so much, and must have forgotten it. The little marquis is a dragon and phoenix among people. How could it be that little money for me! Xiao marquis, wait a moment, I'll get you twenty buns, all of them are for you."
Jiang Xiaobai said: "No, just five are enough!
The boss's wife didn't insist anymore and brought him five meat buns.
Jiang Xiaobai led the horse and walked while eating. Suddenly, he saw a notice posted around the corner, looking around a few people. He stretched his neck and glanced at it. It was news that Lengyan Palace recruited disciples once a century ago, and only female disciples who had already shown their seals.
Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, thinking that the notice was just perfunctory. Not to mention women who show their seals in Qingliang City, even men, it will take many years to appear one or two. Whether or not this notice is posted is the same effect.
After passing through a few streets and alleys, eating a few buns, you will arrive at the Qingliang Hou Mansion.
The gate of the Hou Mansion was open. As soon as Jiang Xiaobai was about to enter the door, he heard a noise coming from the yard. When he saw that there were more than a dozen people standing in the aisle, he saw two people standing in a fan shape. These two people were none other than Feng Zhengming, the old housekeeper who was almost sold by him. The other was Feng Yan, the son of the old housekeeper.
Both of them had messy hair and bruised noses and swollen faces. They probably had just been beaten by this group of people. The old butler looked angry and said, "I warn you that if you don't leave the Marquis' Mansion, I will report to the official!"
Most of these dozen people, Jiang Xiaobai, are all gangsters from this area, and the leader is named Wu Da.
Wu Da sneered and said, "Report to the official? It is natural to repay the debt. Don't say you report to the official, you will not be afraid even if you report to the King of Heaven."
The old housekeeper said: "You can ask the young master for debts, but this mansion is still given by the late emperor. No one of you can move around, otherwise it will be a blasphemy of the holy power!"
Wu Dadao: "You are scared to me? Is it a shame to blaspheme the Holy Power? You cowards who live in the dignified marquis' mansion, which is a blaspheme of the Holy Power. Don't worry, I am not interested in this marquis' mansion, I will not demolish it. I see that there is no money in the marquis' mansion, so I just take a look. I think the little marquis owed me will not be paid in this life. I just find two things to mortgage it, and it's enough. Who told us to come out and make a fuss? I always take the word "righteous"?"
The old housekeeper said angrily: "You dream that unless you step over my body, you will not even take away the things in the marquis's mansion!"
Wu Da sneered: "You are so loyal to me, the watchdog! Old man, I warn you not toast or eat the punishment."
The old butler was about to speak, but Feng Yan said, "Boss Wu, don't bully people too much. My young master is the marquis of the imperial seal. If you make a big deal, it will not do you any good."
Wu Da seemed to hear the funnyest joke in the world, and laughed: "Marty? Only you father and son still remember that he is Marquis. Go to the street to ask the three-year-old child to see if you still know him, Marquis? I guess they all think he is just a monkey-playing person." After that, he laughed again.
Feng Yan said angrily: "You..." but retorted silently.
Jiang Xiaobai walked over slowly and said as he walked: "It seems that Boss Wu is getting bigger and bigger now, and he doesn't even take this marquis seriously."
Everyone noticed him and turned to look at him. Feng Yan said anxiously: "Young Master, please leave quickly, I'll support you here."
