Chapter 152

At this time, the sun was above the head, and the strong sunlight shone white in the sky and the earth, and a swaying blue smoke evaporated from the ground and the sea, as if a slight click of Mars could ignite it.

Pig Dachang and others who gathered near the construction site to make trouble all went back to take a break.

Therefore, from the Xiaolongwan construction site to the upper side leading to Maowan Village, there are extremely few pedestrians who occasionally pick up carts.

Under the scorching sun, Zhao Qi rode an old horse and trotted all the way, and soon arrived at the entrance of the village.

There is a river ditch and several large willow trees at the entrance of the village, all of which are ancient trees that only two or three people can embrace. A stone bridge collapsed across the river and led to Maowan Village, and along another wide road leading to Yanggong Town. A carriage was parked under the shade of the trees at the bridge. The straw curtains covered on the carriage revealed many watermelons. The big green-skinned watermelon looked very attractive. There was also a seller of ice powder next to it, and a wooden barrel was placed under the tree. Two melon-selling men and young people selling ice powder were sitting on the ground eating dry food and chatting and laughing.

"Little Langjun, it's so hot that I'm still rushing to go, why not come down to rest and buy a watermelon to quench your thirst?" A burly man greeted loudly.

Zhao Qi thought for a moment and strangled his horse under the shade of the tree.

It was only a month since he traveled to the Song Dynasty, and this was the first time he saw a watermelon.

The weather is hot, and Xiao Zhu Baoer and others rarely eat this kind of fruit. They can indeed buy two of them back, so they smiled and asked, "Is watermelon sweet? How to sell it?"

"Three coins per pound, sandy, sweet and fresh, not sweet, no money!" A man quickly stood up and said with a smile on his face.

"Three cents are not expensive. I promised that it's not sweet, but I'm coming to you!" Zhao Qi turned over and dismounted.

"Don't worry, little husband, we have a kill here, you can taste one before talking about it!" Another man took out half a piece of watermelon from a wooden barrel in front of the carriage, pulled out a sharp knife and cut it down and handed it over.

Looking at the watermelon with red soil, black seeds and watery water, Zhao Qi felt saliva come out immediately. He took it with a polite sentence and took it. Sure enough, the water was abundant and sweet. So after a few bites, he wiped his mouth and said, "It tastes good, please help me weigh two!"

"Okay!" The man selling melons quickly picked out two watermelons and praised them.

"Little brother, my ice noodles are delicious too. Do you want to have a bowl?" The young man selling ice noodles next to him couldn't help but say hello.

"You, what do you say to buy it or not? The watermelon of Xiaolangjun has a total of 18 kilograms and 54 cents. Just give him a bowl of it to relieve the heat. You can eat my watermelon as you like..." A man selling watermelon curled his lips and said.

"Okay, let me give you a bowl of me, it's a lottery..." The young man selling jelly quickly opened the wooden barrel and scooped out a bowl of snow-white, tender and crystal clear ice powder, and poured it on sesame paste and rock sugar juice, and stuffed it into Zhao Qi's hand enthusiastically.

Zhao Qi took it after a few refusals, sat under the tree and chatted with the three of them. After drinking the jelly, he thanked and paid the bill. The man selling melons also tied the watermelons with straw ropes and hung them on Zhao Qi's saddle.

"You little boy, go slowly!" Seeing Zhao Qi rolling over and getting ready to leave, the three of them were still enthusiastic about giving advice.

"Thank you, it's delicious, come and buy it tomorrow!" Zhao Qi smiled and knocked on the stirrups, but as soon as the horse walked out of the shade of the trees, the strong sunlight suddenly felt a little dizzy and dizzy.

"It seems that I still have to control myself. This little body is impatient..."

Zhao Qi shook his body slightly and muttered, then stabilized his body and continued to move forward, but then a more dizzy feeling came, and he felt his hands and feet numb and his body was out of control. As soon as the old horse walked up to the stone bridge, Zhao Qi fell from the horse's back with a black thud.

Seeing Zhao Qi fallen, two melon-selling men and ice-selling young man looked at each other, then rushed to the front and lifted Zhao Qi up and threw it on the carriage, covered the straw curtain and drove the carriage away with a wooden barrel..."

"Xiaozhu Xiaozhu, come out soon. Brother Xiaoqi fell and injured on a horse. He was sent to the town to find a doctor!"

The cave was very quiet under the scorching sun. Xiaozhu and A Lian were cutting vegetables and cooking. A child about ten years old rushed into the cave panting and shouting loudly.

"What?" A Lian almost cut her hand, and her face turned pale in an instant. Xiao Zhu was so anxious that she almost fell from tears. She threw down the fire drum and stood up at a loss.

"Where did you see Brother Xiaoqi? Is he seriously injured?" A Lian grabbed Xiaowazi and asked anxiously.

"It was told by a passerby in the town just now. I don't know if the injury is serious..."

Old Mrs. Su, who was sitting under the pergola, stood up anxiously with a crutch, "A Lian, please go to the clinic in the town to see how Qi'er is injured!"

"Then you are at home alone..."

"When is it time to care about me alone? Go quickly and go quickly!"

It was related to Zhao Qi, and Old Lady Su also wiped out her usual steadiness and stomped her crutches so anxiously.

"Then I'll go to the town to find Xiaoqi first. Xiaozhu, go find Sister Xiaomi and ask her to go to the village with you to find some people to help!" Although A Lian was panicked, she was young and thought more carefully. After Xiaozhu left, she hurried to Yanggong Town.

It takes about a moment for two or three miles per week, but A Lian's eyes were red and he almost ran all the way. He arrived at the town almost half of the time. There were not many people in the town at noon, and there were no few people. When she arrived near the Lüshi Pharmacy, she was stopped by a young man wearing a hat at the entrance of the pharmacy and asked her if she was looking for Zhao Dalang from Maowan Village. A Lian was in a panic and nodded without thinking too much.

"Don't panic, little lady. Zhao Dalang was sent by us. After bandaging it, he rested in the backyard. I'll take you there!"

"Thank you, I wonder how Dalang was injured?"

A Lian followed the young man into the alley next to the medicine shop without any warning.

"Don't worry, Dalang just fell and injured his legs and scalp. The doctor said that the injury was not serious and he would be cured in half a month of cultivation. Here..."

The young man explained while leading the way, and walked around dozens of feet in a winding way before walking through a narrow small door into a very deserted yard.

"Where is Dalang?" A Lian stood in the weeds and looked around anxiously.

"Haha, Dalang is in the room, go in..." the young man said in a low voice and pointed at the faint door.

Looking at the desolate scene and the disrepaired house, A Lian suddenly became alert and retreated in fear to leave. However, before he could turn around, someone covered his mouth from behind. Then two big men rushed out of the house, and lifted A Lian, who was struggling hard, into it.
