Chapter 26: Seeing People Talk
Jiuzhen and Aunt Wu sat on the ox cart, full of swords, and food and drinks on the way back and forth.
Wuwang City is more than 3,000 miles away from the Evade Valley, and it takes three days to arrive, and it takes three days to come back. This is six days, so food must be prepared in advance.
The second uncle of boxing, the third uncle of calligraphy, and the fourth uncle of one-armed, were riding horses and driving more than one hundred horses along the way to avoid losing the horses.
The group walked north along the Han River.
More than a hundred horses were in a big scene. After only a hundred miles away from the valley, they met people from nearby villages and were attracted by these horses.
A man came over, flattered the fourth uncle with one-armed arm, and finally said, "Brother Ji, your horse is such a good horse. I can exchange it with you with a tiger, okay?"
The fourth uncle of the one-armed one-armed one's surname was Gongsun. Gongsun was originally named Ji, and finally separated and changed his surname. After the fourth uncle of the one-armed one-armed one came to Xiashigu, outsiders asked about his name, but he could not refuse, so he only said that his surname was Ji.
The fourth uncle, the one-armed one-armed, agreed with a smile, and said, "Okay, no problem, they are all from the villagers. Which one do you want to change to, choose it yourself."
"no."
The fifth aunt sat on the ox cart and objected, "Maco is much more valuable than a tiger. If you want to change it, you have to exchange it for at least two tigers."
Qinghuang is a place where strange beasts are everywhere. There are piles of tigers, so they are naturally not valuable, but horses are rare, so horses are much more valuable than tigers. My fifth aunt is not wrong.
The fourth uncle, the one-armed one-armed, could not make the decision, so the man had to buy two tigers and exchange for a handsome horse.
Another man stepped forward and said to his fifth aunt: "Isn't this a girl from the Zhang family? I haven't seen you for a year. You are younger and more beautiful than before. What kind of fairy beauty medicine did you take?"
The fifth aunt couldn't stop laughing, "Brother Li was joking. Where am I young and beautiful? I'm already an old woman."
"Where are you old? You are so beautiful, who won't praise you when you go out? If anyone's eyes don't eat oil, I'll beat him to death if you're old."
The fifth aunt was even more happy.
The man looked at the horses again and said, "These horses are really good. Zhang family girl, I will exchange a deer for you for another horse and let my child ride it to play. Do you think it is?"
After hearing this, the fourth uncle, who was one-armed, laughed and scolded, "You guy is here to take advantage of us. Elks are less valuable than tigers. If you want to change them, you have to exchange them for at least ten elks."
The fifth aunt said, "What Brother Li said is all about? It's all from the villagers. If you like a horse, just take it away directly. What else can you change? Isn't this apart?"
The fourth uncle, one-armed, was stunned and finally looked at Brother Li and took a horse with empty hands.
The fourth uncle, one-armed one-armed, said to his fifth aunt, "Fifth sister, you are too much."
"I'm not too much. I'm all from the villagers. You are so stingy."
The fifth aunt ignored him and urged Jiuzhen to drive the cattle and continue on the way.
After walking seven or eight hundred miles, it was dark. Jiuzhen and the others found a mountain temple on the side of the road and dealt with it all night.
There was nothing wrong all night, and the next day, they continued to rush on their way. After walking like this for three days, they met two yamen runners from the government.
These two yamen runners were taxed by the government in Wuwang City. Whenever they encountered good things, they always had to collect taxes under various names and search for money.
"Stop."
After stopping Jiuzhen and his group, the two yamen runners looked at the team for a while.
Seeing the horses in herds and the ox carts filled with swords, they looked at each other and it was obvious that this wealth made them very moved.
"Where are you from? Where are you going?"
The second uncle of boxing is at the forefront of the team and is responsible for negotiations. The older yamen runners ask about the second uncle of boxing.
The second uncle of Boxing brought a jar of wine and said, "We are all rural people, so we don't have any questions. We won't catch some horses. We are going to go to Wuwang City to sell them, and exchange them for some oil and salt. We are very careful. We also ask the yamen runner to accept it with a smile."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
The yamen runner took the wine jar and looked very happy. He took a sip and said, "Good wine, good wine, you go, remember, don't cause trouble."
"If you don't dare, how dare we cause trouble, thank you, thank you."
The boxing uncle said a few words of thanks and left.
Jiuzhen was quite scared just now and said to his fifth aunt: "I thought these two yamen runners were going to rob us, but I didn't expect to let us go so easily. It seems that these two are pretty good."
The fifth aunt smiled and said, "Do you think they are good things? You are just bullying good and afraid of evil. If you really feel that you can eat us, their teeth are sharper than anyone else."
Jiuzhen was silent and thoughtful.
They rushed to the road for another day, and on the fourth day, they met two yamen runners again, and they stopped Jiuzhen and his group.
These two people were very arrogant. The second uncle of Boxing gave them wine, but they didn't want it, and they fell directly to the ground, with a bad attitude.
Then they sealed the ox carts and some horses, saying that the court was now using troops to the grasslands and was short of horses and swords, and all these things were requisitioned.
After saying that, they threw a certificate-like thing to Uncle Erquan, with the seal of the government on it, saying that this can be used to highlight the family and honor the ancestors when they are posted at home.
Uncle Er took the certificate of boxing, called Jiuzhen in front of him, and said, "Jiuzhen, how are you practicing boxing?"
"It's okay to go back to the second uncle."
"It's okay? I don't believe it. I think you're standing still and getting unfamiliar."
After the second uncle of boxing, he handed the certificate to Jiuzhen, and then sat down and stopped talking.
The fifth aunt, the third uncle of calligraphy, and the fourth uncle of one-armed one-armed are all smiling, as if waiting for something.
Jiuzhen looked around and saw that there were no passers-by on the way, and there was no village in front or shop in the back. It was such a good place.
Jiuzhen walked up to a yamen runner and returned the certificate to him. "My second uncle doesn't want this."
The yamen runner is also a warrior, with the strength of a one-yuan realm.
Of course, simply being in the state of one yuan cannot give them such a arrogant capital. They are arrogant because behind them are the government and the court.
Even if they meet a sect, they can rely on the power of the government and court to oppress others and gain benefits for themselves.
Because ordinary sects lack strength, they naturally dare not offend the government and have to admit defeat.
Seeing that the second uncle in boxing was untrue, the yamen runner dared to return the certificate. He was furious and was about to raise his hand to teach Jiuzhen a lesson. He didn't expect that a fist as big as a casserole would quickly magnify his pupils.
Before he could react, he was blown away by Jiuzhen with one punch.
The seventh posture of the Feng Shen Leg: I walk alone with the strong wind and strong grass.
Before the yamen runner fell, Jiu Zhen used the seventh posture of Feng Shen's legs and stepped on the horse with one foot. Then, with the help of the upward momentum and the power of the wind, he flew into the air in just a moment.
In the air, Jiuzhen met the yamen runner again.
