Chapter 246 Each table has a branch
In the twelfth lunar month, although there is only one city gate, it is colder outside the city than in the city.
Ping'an covered his cold red ears with one hand, and Xile quickly reminded him: "Don't rub it, it will rub your ears off."
Ping An was startled. He wanted to rub it and let the blood flow just now. He said, "Is it true or false?"
"Really, I heard what Wang Bo said." Xile said.
"Bo Wang is confused all day long, do you believe what he says?" Ping An disdained.
"Wang Bo is a native of the north. He followed the old marquis to fight the Tartars outside the pass and followed the marquis to suppress bandits in Shanxi. He lived in the north all his life. If I don't believe him, do you still believe in you?" Xile said.
Ping An and Xile are all from the south. When Mr. Chen was five years old, Yue Li stole a big black dog from somewhere and wanted to stew it with black beans. Mr. Chen took advantage of Yue Li's time to boil water and took the big black dog to escape. Unexpectedly, the big black dog was very spiritual and quickly threw the little master Chen and ran away by himself. Mr. Chen was weak and fainted when he walked to a river. Two children were bathing in the river with bare butts. When they saw a child fainting, they hurried over, soaking the boy's urine, waking Mr. Chen.
These two bare-ass kids are peace and joy.
They are from the same village, and they are related to relatives and their family is poor. Yue Li asked them to be a playmate for Chen Xiao, and their family agreed readily.
Later, there was a plague in their village and the whole village died. They escaped because they lived on the mountain with Shen Xiao. From then on, they followed Yue Li around to look for medicinal materials and walked many places until now they came to the capital.
This was their first winter in the north.
So is Chen Xiao.
Although Mr. Chen practiced martial arts, it was the first time he had experienced such cold weather and had no experience. He thought the clothes sent from the needle and thread room were too thick and not good-looking. He was wearing thin clothes when he left the city. His nose was red and his face turned pale.
"Young Master, these gambling shops say they have never seen these people. Is it because we are looking for the wrong direction?" Ping An asked boldly.
Mr. Chen used his hands to cover his delicate nose, but he didn't expect that his hands were colder than his nose, so he had to do it.
"It's not wrong." Chen Xiao said.
It's definitely not wrong, otherwise Hua Jingyao's people wouldn't have come out here.
It was because of seeing the people from the Princess's Mansion that Chen Xiao was even more sure that as long as those people came to these places, they would definitely leave traces.
In the evening, it became dark, and bright lanterns hung outside the gambling house, with a silhouette of people, making it more lively than during the day.
The three masters and servants who had been waiting outside walked in again. This time, Chen Xiao lost fifty taels of silver and finally heard about a friend.
"It's not our thugs here, but I'm the first time I've seen them. Did you see a family photo when you came? Yes, that's the house. I saw it in the forest behind Fucheng pawnshop. Six or seven people beat one, and after being beaten to death, they threw the person directly into the ice hole. In this cold weather, that person would definitely not survive. The ice hole was frozen again. When the spring began, the body might float up."
Chen Xiao thought of Zhu Lu, who escaped under the water by using the ice hole.
Zhu Lu is a water bandit and has a very good water personality. He can do this, but if he were someone else, he would have died long ago.
"Is the one who was beaten a lame man?" asked Mr. Chen.
"Lame?" the guy shook his head and continued, "I didn't see if it was a lame person. At that time, he was beaten so hard that he could no longer stand up. I couldn't see if it was a lame person. But the man was thin and lonely, and he could fall down as soon as the wind blew, and it looked like someone was chasing debts."
"Is he a thin man?" Chen Xiao frowned. Zhu Lu was not thin, not only not thin, but also thick and strong. It would never be what the guest said. Moreover, Zhu Lu's martial arts are not weak, otherwise he would not be able to escape even if there is an ice hole. Although his injuries are not light, they are not fatal. In other words, although Zhu Lu was besieged by seven masters, he still has the ability to protect himself, but the person mentioned by the guest was only able to be beaten.
They are from the same village, and they are related to relatives and their family is poor. Yue Li asked them to be a playmate for Chen Xiao, and their family agreed readily.
