Chapter 152
Half an hour later.
After full of wine and food, Xu Qing drank a sip of water and rinsed her mouth.
"Do you have any more clothes?" Borrow me a set.
Xu Qing stood up and asked aloud.
"Yes, yes, yes." Yu Biao hurriedly nodded, turned his head and said to his wife, "Go and find someone for the adult, the cleanest and best!" The
middle-aged woman nodded and walked quickly into the bedroom inside.
Yes, in the end, she walked out a little twisted.
Xu Qing glanced at it.
This so-called cleanest and best, there is still a patch on it.
Yu Biao and his wife blushed, obviously feeling a little humiliated.
Xu Qing did not dislike, "It's very good, dressed too well is also noticeable." "
The life of shadows is mostly ordinary, like Yu Biao, it is particularly miserable.
Jin Yiwei will be frugal though.
But that, like black money, can't be used at all.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the source of Yulu.
Therefore, no shadow will risk exposure to use Qilu to improve life.
Xu Qing took the clothes, took out a few amounts of silver from his arms, and placed them on the table.
"I thought I bought it."
The tone is firm, and it is not tolerated by the Biao couple.
Xu Qing walked into the room, changed his clothes, and said,
"My horse and the flying fish suit will be temporarily handed over to your care."
Yu Biao and his wife nodded one after another.
Xu Qing didn't say much, found a rag to wrap the embroidered spring knife, and walked out of the tavern.
This village is still some distance from Xianzhou, so you have to hurry early.
Xu Qing said hello, his figure shook, and disappeared in an instant.
.........
The closer to Xianzhou City, the more difficult this road became.
Fortunately, Xu Qing did not get up on horseback, and he moved forward a lot faster by relying on his feet.
About half an hour later.
Suddenly the water vapor ahead became much thicker, and there was a faint sound of water flowing along with the sound of the wind.
Xu Qing stopped, squatted down, splashed some dust on his body, and wiped a handful on his face.
Immediately afterwards, his breath suddenly changed from long to slightly urgent.
It's like a ranger who doesn't get into the flow.
This trip is better to keep a low profile.
Xu Qing slowed down and walked slowly towards the front.
The closer you go, the thicker the fog becomes, and the sound of the rushing river reaches your ears.
Not often.
At the end of the road, a large river about three hundred meters wide appeared.
The geography of this world has changed slightly.
Xu Qing didn't know what kind of river it was, but he estimated what kind of tributary of the big river it was.
On the surface of the river, a rare human voice came.
When Xu Qing heard the voice, he immediately quickened his pace.
"Boat family, wait for me!"
Seeing that the boat was about to leave, he quickly shouted.
The boatman waved the oars in his hand, suddenly stopped the boat, and rocked the boat closer to the shore.
Xu Qing jumped, jumped on the boat, and thanked him repeatedly.
"Thank you."
The boatman was an old man with a wrinkled face, obviously suffering a lot in life, and when he heard this, he smiled and said in vain:
"It's okay, it's not in the way."
Xu Qing nodded silently and sat cross-legged in the stern position.
The boat gradually sailed into the river, drowning in the thick water vapor.
The river is turbulent, and it takes a long time to cross the river.
Therefore, Xu Qing had a small chat with the old man.
"What should the young man be called? How did you get interested in our poor countryman? The old man was swinging his oars, but he was full of breath and looked very relaxed.
"Just call me Xiao Xu, what do you call my husband?"
Xu Qing was smiling, his tone was relaxed, and he looked like a chick who had just entered the rivers and lakes.
The old man laughed: "Old man, I forgot what my name is, for so many years they have called me an old blind man." "
Huh?" Xu Qing raised his eyebrows and asked, "You look very good." The
old blind man sighed, "In the early years, I was blind, married a white-eyed wolf, and ran away with all my belongings in two months, so they all accepted me blind, so they began to call me a little blind, and now that I am old, I naturally began to call me an old blind man."
Xu Qing smiled dumbly, he didn't expect that there was such a story behind this.
"Then again, what is Brother Xu doing here, we don't have anything in this Xianzhou, but the fish smell is a must, especially the chopped pepper fish head, don't mention how delicious!"
The old blind man said with a smile, and he didn't care if Xu Qing answered, and he said it without thinking about himself.
From the customs, to the various cuisines, to which family quarreled again last night....
The old blind man is a talker, or maybe no one has been willing to listen to him carefully for too long, so he talks a lot now.
Xu Qing listened quietly and asked two questions from time to time.
Soon, under his secret guidance, the old blind man talked about the recent events.
"Hey, don't say it, what kind of sacrifice really works!"
"Since their sacrifice is over, the fish that has been broken for twenty days has finally reappeared!"
"Even the old man I harvested a lot that day, and I caught a big fish, which took three days to eat!"
"It's really a god, why are you so mysterious? Throw a few old hens into the river, and there will be so many more fish at once! What a strange thing, old man, I have been fishing fish on this river for more than fifty years, and I have never seen such a strange thing!
The old blind man shook his head and said, suddenly turned his head and asked Xu Qing:
"Brother Xu, you are wandering outside, you must have seen more than the old man and me, do you know what is going on?"
Xu Qing pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head.
He didn't know what the situation was.
Listening to the meaning of the old blind man, those people seem to be sacrificing that soft fragrance lady...
Normal procedure, not much bloody things, throw some poultry and there is a response, but it is really a little mysterious.
But at this time, the old blind man continued: "But that's been three years, and now the sacrifice requires more and more things, from the chickens and ducks at the beginning, to the pigs and sheep in the back, and then to the buffalo, so that it is not the turn of the buffalo..."
Speaking of this, the old blind man
was shocked, and immediately shook his head, trying to shake off the terrible thoughts in his mind.
When Xu Qing heard this, he said lightly: "People?
"Ouch!" The old blind man was shocked and hurriedly made a silent gesture, obviously frightened by this idea.
"Brother Xu, don't you dare to say this nonsense!"
Xu Qing smiled and did not refute.
He looked down at the water to the side, and vaguely could see shadows swimming by.
And at this time.
The water vapor in front of it gradually thinned a lot, revealing the appearance of the shore.
In the sound of the loud water, a rare and noisy music sound, accompanied by inexplicable shouts, like a lost mysterious spell.
Xu Qing raised his head and followed the prestige, his eyes were calm, looking at the shore not far away.
I saw a large group of people dressed in gorgeous costumes with colorful paints painted on their faces appeared, standing on the shore, with a platform protruding into the river in front of them.
Above stood a man dressed as a wizard, surrounded by sacrifices.
There are many kinds of sacrifices, including chickens, ducks, fish, pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep...
And...... Person!
