Chapter 11 Horse dealers, wild shop Taoists(1/2)
The snow was swelling, and the north wind was like a knife.
Wei State, Yunzhou.
Fifty miles southwest of Xianmen County, the official road.
A tall man wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat was leading several tall yellow horses, one foot deep and the other shallow, and was struggling forward in the wind and snow.
The man was tall and strong, carrying a sword bag. Although he was braved by the strong wind and snow, holding the hands of several horses, he was very stable and his steps were even more solid and powerful. It was obvious that his skills were on his body.
In this way, the man led his horse to the shelter and stopped.
When he looked up, the cold young man looked like a cold face, and his stubble was messy, but he still had a heroic spirit.
The young man frowned and looked at the howling wind and snow around him, and first shook his head and sighed.
Then he patted a small gray pocket on his waist and took out a yellow gourd out of thin air. He just opened the lid and poured it into his mouth, but there was no drop of wine.
I felt a little helpless for a moment.
He looked at it and saw smoke rising from a cooking stove not far away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he looked back at the several tired horses he was holding, and said with some emotion: "The snow suddenly came, which really caught me off guard. He wanted to pretend to be a horse peddler, so he could have a hidden identity so that Qi Zhenggu would send someone to guard Xianmen County and reveal his hiding, but now he is asking for trouble."
After hearing this, it is not difficult to know that this man is Wang Ze.
As for why I dress up now, I still say.
After the battle at the foot of Jiyun Mountain, he searched for a place to rest and took advantage of Qi Zhenggu's "Innate Wire Cleansing Pill" to replenish his foundation. He then refines the Taoist primordial Qi and returns to his youthful state before leaving the seclusion.
The rest of the clinker will take several months.
When we left the seclusion, it was already winter.
Of course, over the past few months, he has done more than just this.
In addition to his own recovery of his skills, he also gave Qi Zhenggu the Xuanjin Sword Pills, and Haosheng used the Baiyang Sword Technique to sacrifice and refine them, adding some methods.
In addition, Wuyun Dou, who was obtained from the Lu Manager, was probably the one who was deconstructed by the blood-removing and bone-removing demon, and destroyed the secret technique. He tried to tinker with it. Without the magic trick in his hand, he actually practiced it.
The five-color rays are sucked and storing the body, and it is not smooth.
After refining this bag, Wang Ze was quite happy for several days.
After that, he put all his belongings in the Five Clouds Pocket and left the mountains and fields.
After sorting out all the things.
Wang Ze, who was in the Taoist charity, did not want to delay too long. After several preparations, he rushed to Xianmen County.
He was worried that Qi Zhenggu would send people to guard Xianmen County, and he did not dare to dress up as a Taoist. After changing his clothes, he used silver coins to get the identity of a horse vendor and several good horses, so he wanted to pretend to be a horse merchant and go to Xianmen County to find the descendants of Lu Jingsheng.
As soon as the clinker entered Yunzhou, he encountered heavy snow, which caused a lot of trouble.
It’s easy to say something after a few horses.
After all, horses are just a cover-up, and he is not a real horse merchant, even if he raises bad things, it is not a big deal.
The problem is still with him.
Logically speaking, his Taoist cultivation is in his body. Although he cannot even do the skills of eating wind and drinking dew, his innate Yuan Qi is in his body and his ability to withstand coldness and hunger is beyond the reach of ordinary warriors.
Don't worry about this cold winter weather.
It’s a pity that he had killed Lu Manager at the foot of the Jiyun Mountain and used the Jumorao Blood-removing Bone Demon Scroll left by Lu Jingsheng. At that time, he thought it was just a loss of essence, qi and blood, but he knew that the sequelae was really great.
A little bit of demonic qi is like a maggot attached to the bone, and it stays in the essence of his internal qi. Even if it swallows the innate meridian washing pill, it restores its body of Taoist primordial qi, which cannot be worn away.
This devil qi will cause damage to the essence of his flesh and blood, and the cold Yin in this middle will erode the meridians of the body.
Especially in this cold winter, the circulation of qi and blood slows down, and this demonic qi becomes more and more irritating.
This also made him feel very resentful towards Lu Jingsheng's old Taoist.
After several studies, Wang Ze found that it was only possible to stimulate the flow of blood and blood when drinking, so he brought the cup of food with him.
Unfortunately, he has no drinks in his gourd.
Fortunately, it is not long at the moment. I only crossed the mountain road in front of me, and then crossed dozens of miles to point to Yangjiang, which is the Xianmen County City.
He had just looked far away and there seemed to be smoke in front of him, perhaps a place to settle down.
I thought about finding some wine and preparing it, and then eating a coarse cake to fill my stomach.
By the way, let the horse have some rest. After entering the Xianmen County City, it will always be better to hide it.
So he didn't delay much, pulled the reins and went forward again.
...
Not long after, Wang Zeguo saw a large hotel next to the road.
It was noon after noon, and it was in the wind and snow, and the sky was dark. Although the hotel was opened next to the road, the area was quite large and the courtyard was quite circumference.
There are stables outside, and they are obviously used to passing business.
When I got closer, I only hung a flag that was blown by the wind and snow, filling the storefront with wine. I don’t know if there is any wine.
Although what he has seen and heard along the way, the current Wei Kingdom is not peaceful and the world must be chaotic.
This kind of wild shop that is seeking life on the roadside is probably not simple.
But he is already a skilled martial artsman and has rich experience in the world. Now he has become a member of the immortal family again, and is not afraid of encountering black shops. He just wants to be happy with his own stomach.
When I walked outside the store, I saw no livestock in the stable, and I thought there were no guests.
Wang Ze stepped forward and knocked on the gate of the courtyard.
After a while, a hunchbacked man opened the door to greet him. Wang Ze, who was tall and carrying a sword bag, shrank his head.
But when he saw several horses behind Wang Ze and felt that his business was quite large, he smiled happily again.
"Shopkeeper, is it convenient?" Wang Ze asked.
"Convenient, convenient. What the shop does is to pass through business, so where will it be inconvenient."
The man said flatteringly: "Good man, please come in quickly. I have taken you, horse for you, and then placed it in this stable with good weeds."
After saying that, he shouted to the yard again: "Dear guest is here, why don't you come and greet me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a strong woman pulling open the animal skin curtain and revealing a straight face.
How did you see this woman's appearance?
With his eyebrows and eyes, his waist is like a pottery jar, and his arms are rough as if he is a stick. Although he is covered with a thick layer of greasy powder on his face, he has two ripped rouge, but he cannot see any softness.
When the woman saw Wang Ze, she smiled and showed a yellow teeth like a bowl. "Cheer, please, the charcoal fire inside, it's warm."
"It's easy to say."
Wang Ze nodded and handed the horse in his hand to the man for disposal.
Then he followed the woman into the hotel.
As soon as I entered the store, warmth came. When I looked around, I saw a few tables and chairs in the hall, and a few pottery bowls were stacked on the table.
I think it was just before he came here that a passerby left.
Wang Ze took off his straw hat and straw raincoat, casually found a table and chair to sit down, and asked, "Shopkeeper, what food does it have?"
The woman smiled happily: "Yes, yes, heroes, please sit down quickly, tea and wine. If you want to fill your stomach and have coarse cakes and pheasants, they are all made by your own home. I wonder what the heroes want?"
"I don't know how much wine is in stock in your store?"
The woman smiled again and said, "But I have enough wine. Today, there are quite a few guests in the shop. It is a team of escorts. I am thirsty and I have to go to a few jars to store wine. Fortunately, the shop has prepared a lot, and there are still three jars, which is enough for guests to eat and use."
"It's good to have wine. You will get all three jars of wine and drinks with me. I'm going to eat one jar now. But I'll take the rest away. I'll have three more coarse cakes. I don't want the pheasant. If I can have a meal, it would be great."
"You will not be missing your silver."
The business of a small shop in the wild is not easy, so Wang Ze will not make trouble with this woman.
After sitting down, he put down a piece of silver with ease, and waved his hand and ordered to make arrangements at will.
The woman should have been a long-term businessman, and she knew very well. She received the silver ounce and did not dare to disturb her at all, so she immediately stepped back.
Soon, the woman, who was quite strong, brought three jars of wine from the inner room.
The woman smiled, and while pulling out the seal of one of the wine jars, taking the pottery bowl, and pouring a full bowl of wine soup for Wang Ze.
Wang Ze joked with the store for a few times and then drank a bowl of it.
The wine soup is quite powerful, and it is rare to think it is a craftsmanship.
Especially when the Yuan Qi turned, there was no hidden hand. The little demonic qi in his body was also suppressed, and Wang Ze felt even more relaxed.
"Good wine!"
"It's good for a good man to behave, please wait a moment, but it takes a while to serve the wine and food."
Wang Ze gave up and let the store go.
Soon, the coarse cakes and side dishes were all over. Wang Ze drank it himself. Although the Yuan Qi is in his body now, even if there are a few more jars, it is difficult to get drunk, but he still eats it very happily.
While eating and drinking, he also thought about where he would go in the future.
