MTL - Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding-Chapter 160 I'm such a good person
Chapter 160 I'm such a good person
The potholed roads are interspersed in this vast green wild forest.
The weeds on the side of the road are tall and tall, fluctuating with the cold wind, occasionally revealing some white bones.
It's hard to imagine that this is a so-called "official way".
On the road, a post station stood there, full of dust and dead leaves, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.
In recent years, the Dasheng Dynasty has been plagued by disasters, which can be described as "internal and external troubles", and the jurisdiction of this remote northern land is even more powerless.
If the bureaucratic system formed over the years still maintains a certain inertia, I am afraid that it would have fallen apart long ago.
On the way, Ji Que couldn't help asking why Jia Si rich merchant sent things to Fuyun Temple.
Jia Si didn't shy away from it, and directly said that he was going to fulfill his vow.
It turned out that Jia Si had never had a child before, so he went to Fuyun Temple to ask for a child. Unexpectedly, his wish came true. His wife gave birth to six children, so he went to Fuyun Temple to fulfill his wish.
Ji Que remembered a lot of stories because of this, and couldn't help gossiping: "Did your lady stay overnight at Fuyun Temple?"
Jia Si said unhappily: "How is it possible! Brother Ji, do you think I haven't read the scriptures of those monster monks? Brother, I eat more salt than you eat. The child who put his own woman in the temple to stay overnight , can it be your own seed?"
Ah this.
This time, it was Ji Que's turn to be embarrassed.
Hayashi Kaori, who had turned into a cat, nestled in his arms, and couldn't help laughing.
This Jia Si is a wealthy businessman who has traveled far and wide and has good knowledge. How dare he go to a temple where his daughter-in-law is left alone overnight to ask for a child.
Fuyun Temple is a well-known orthodox temple, and the way of begging for a child is also very serious. It is just to ask for a Buddha statue to send a child home to worship. up.
Hearing what Jia Si said, Ji Que suddenly felt that this temple was quite reasonable, and would not charge incense money if it was not working.
Apart from Ji Que and Maomao Lin Xiangzhi, Jia Si's servants and five escorts were accompanying him.
A group of people did not look relaxed.
Because of the white bones on the roadside, in addition to animals, there are also human bones.
When Ji Que went to pee, he even saw two rotting corpses.
Judging from the degree of decay of the corpse, it should be within a month.
From the road, it can be seen that Jia Si, a wealthy businessman, is quite a stingy person. Ji Que saw him secretly eating salted duck eggs alone, and let them eat dry sesame seeds.
The fact that such a stingy person can spend so much money on an **** shows that this journey will not be peaceful.
Compared to the prudence of others, Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi are much calmer and more relaxed.
After walking for a day or two, nothing happened. This land boundary can be said to be too peaceful.
The melodious cry of the night owl and the night came together.
Tonight, there are no stars and no moon, the sky and the earth are dark, coupled with the drizzle in the sky, and the muddy road is slippery, it can be said that it is the most unsuitable for traveling.
Jia Fushang is also a bit old, and although he is riding in a carriage, it is bumpy.
Hearing that the leading bodyguard was going to rest in front, he couldn't help letting out a long breath.
With the help of his servants, Jia Fushang entered the dusty abandoned inn.
It can be seen that this group of people has been running outside all year round, and their movements are very quick. It didn't take long to clean up this abandoned place.
A group of people nested in this not sheltered house and started a fire.
There was a large iron pot on the fire, and as soon as the water boiled, two pieces of dried meat that hadn't been cut much were put in it.
After that, the smell of meat slowly wafted out, adding a touch of warmth to this cold rainy night.
The lead bodyguard was a big man named Yu Zhong. After the broth was almost boiled, he added some dried vegetables into it.
Afterwards, everyone started eating with a bowl of broth and dry biscuits.
Don't say it, this broth, which is ordinary to Ji Que, is really delicious at this moment.
He took a sip of the soup and only a sip of the dry biscuit, and then he simply soaked the dry biscuit in the soup and ate it after soaking it soft.
Halfway through, Lin Xiangzhi also got out and took a few bites.
Jia Si couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Ji is as good at this cat as I am at my concubine."
Lin Xiangzhi was obviously dissatisfied with the word "concubine", so she couldn't help but let out a fierce "meow!", which startled Jia Si.
After eating the broth, the people in the room finally relaxed a lot, talking and laughing.
Ji Que, on the other hand, sat there with Lin Xiangzhi and a cat, without communicating with anyone, looking normal and abnormal at the same time.
There are guys everywhere who go out with a dog and a cat to play. Some of them know how to tame falcons, and they even bring hawks with them, which is very majestic.
But it's the first time seeing Ji Que like this.
Because at this time, the person and the cat were sitting there with their eyes closed, their expressions seemed to be carved out of the same mold, and they looked quite suitable.
The idea that a man and a cat are compatible is absurd, but the feeling exists.
After eating and drinking, everyone began to rest.
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi found a dilapidated room to rest.
From here, you can see the wild forest outside through the broken windows of the inn.
The wild forest in the night is deep and deep, and the wind blows the branches, like ghosts baring their teeth and claws.
Such a picture is eerie and terrifying to ordinary people. If it is not for survival, most people in this abandoned post station would definitely not want to stay in such a place.
But Ji Que is different, he quite enjoys this feeling.
He remembered when he played a certain game before, riding a horse named "Grape", walking through desolate or beautiful maps, and seeing various scenery.
This is the taste of travel, the feeling of exploring the map.
After all, human beings have an adventurous gene and like excitement.
Just as Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi washed up and were about to go to sleep, they both looked outside at the same time.
In the rainy night, a sound of horseshoes came along the ground.
Ji Que lay on the ground, wondering: "Thirty-six horses are coming towards us, so it shows that our luck is still bad."
Lin Xiangori replied: "Obviously you are unlucky."
After a while, the bodyguard outside reacted.
"Extinguishing."
"Someone is here, let's put some bright spots on the tricks." The leader, Yu Zhong, reminded.
Jia Si was so frightened that he and his servant ran into the corner, and almost collided with Ji Que who came out.
After that, when the sound of horseshoes got closer, the faces of Yu Zhong and other bodyguards became more and more ugly.
There are too many people here, and they can still ride horses like this on this rainy night, which shows that they are not ordinary bandits.
That is likely to be the last soldier they want to meet.
Finally, the sound of horseshoes stopped outside, and this group of people really came here.
"Who is inside, why are you staying here!"
At this time, a high-pitched voice came from outside the station.
"Passing by your place on a rainy night, there is no one here, so stay overnight, can you bother me?" Yu Zhong replied.
At this moment, eyes shot in from the dilapidated window, apparently to find out.
A moment later, there was only a bang, and the tattered door of the inn was kicked open.
Several men in armor came in, and one of them scolded: "Is it a place where you can stay in an important place for marching?"
Obviously, their bottom line has been found out, what kind of bird is this important, and they are obviously here to find fault.
Yu Zhong replied: "General, we really don't know, so we will leave immediately. My subordinate is Yu Zhong, Li Haitou of the Fengqi Escort Bureau, the general will pass by Tianren City in the future, and he will definitely treat you well."
As he spoke, he wanted someone to pack his luggage.
These people obviously didn't buy it, the man sneered and said, "A dart guard? We'll take the money."
Yu looked at the dark crowd outside, winked at Jia Si, and said, "No problem."
This is a way to make money, at least there is no fear of life.
Jia Si showed embarrassment on his face, but then he saw someone drawing a knife on the opposite side, so he quickly agreed.
At this time, a man in armor looked around and said angrily, "Grandma, there is no woman?"
Jia Si breathed a sigh of relief.
He went out this time and knew that it was dangerous, so he didn't bring his wife and concubine with him. It can be seen that he did the right thing, otherwise.
As a result, at this moment, a guy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks suddenly said: "Brother, it doesn't matter if there is no woman, you know me, I think that's fine."
"Really? Light up the fire and see clearly, I have always been a man and woman."
Hearing this, almost everyone is chrysanthemum tight.
The fire in the room was quickly lit, reflecting faces.
In the light of the fire, the appearance of those soldiers and bandits was also revealed.
As expected, they all looked at Ji Que.
No way, he is born with an aura of bad luck, and he is indeed the fairest and best-skinned of this group of people, so if you don't look for him, look for someone.
"Okay, today we are in a good mood, the money and goods are taken away, and there is only one person, okay."
Saying that, the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks walked towards Ji Que.
Yu Zhong clasped his hands and said, "General, that is"
"Shut up! What, do you want to join us?" the big man in armor scolded.
Yu Zhong and the others looked ugly and didn't dare to gnaw, for fear that if the other party got angry, they would catch them together and play with them.
This group of soldiers are really gangsters, even the men are not spared.
At this moment, they seemed to have foreseen Ji Que's ending, and they couldn't bear to watch it any longer.
Ji Que hurriedly took a step back, and hurriedly said, "Is this not good?"
"What's good?" The man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks wanted to arrest him again.
Ji Que said, "Have you brought any money?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned.
Jia Si was the first to react, and said in doubt: "Brother, you can't be"
At this time, the man who came to arrest Ji Que couldn't help laughing, and said, "I think you look quite serious, I didn't expect you to bring it, of course you did!"
Ji Que nodded, as if talking to himself: "Okay, they have brought the money."
The next moment, when the man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was about to grab Zhong Ji Que's hand, there was a shrill scream.
The man fell to the ground and rolled over, screaming: "Eyes! My eyes!"
In just an instant, the man's eyeballs rolled to the ground, and there were two very slender paw prints on them.
"what happened!"
"superior"
The leader was about to order his subordinates to bow, but only heard a "meow!", and his whole body froze there.
Lin Xiangzhi landed on his helmet at some point, and a pair of blood-stained paws were pressed against his eyes.
The officer headed by hurriedly begged for mercy: "Be merciful! The hero is merciful!"
Ji Que walked over, imitating the tone of the other party before: "I just heard that you brought money, let me tell you first, I want the money!"
"No problem, no problem."
"Come here, give this master all the valuables on your body."
Ji Que looked around with his hands behind his back, and continued to imitate the tone of the other party: "Grandma, there is no woman?"
The leader whose eyeballs were pinned down cried, "Hero, do you think men are good?"
Ji Queli ignored him, looked at the pile of silver and some jewelry, and said, "Is it all here?"
"There are only so many." The person who should be the adjutant said nervously.
Who would have thought that dozens of them, even with bows and knives, would be picked up by a cat like "the thief is the first to catch the king".
The leader was sweating all over his head, and said to himself, "Unlucky!"
He did a divination when he went out, and it was a sign of good luck.
But it’s okay, this person seems to be looking for money, after all, he seems to be a little kinder than them.
At this moment, Hayashi Kaori meowed a few times.
"They just killed someone not long ago."
After hearing Lin Xiangzhi's words, Ji Que snapped his fingers and said, "Kill it."
As soon as the voice fell, I heard a "huh!".
Lin Xiangori's cat claw slid down and pierced the leader's throat.
After that, I saw her up and down a few times, and there were a few more screaming people on the ground.
"The cat killed a man!"
"Chop it!"
"what!"
"what!"
I saw Lin Xiangzhi's figure was like lightning, and every time he rose and fell, a soldier fell to the ground.
There were soldiers and bandits sneaking up and shooting arrows in the middle, some of them were easily dodged by it, and some of them were broken by her tail and pierced into the enemy's flesh and blood in reverse.
During the rainy night, the torn window paper was soon stained red with blood.
After the soldiers and bandits killed more than 20 people one after another, there was soon the sound of horsemen trying to escape.
It turned out that it was impossible to escape, but Lin Xiangzhi picked up a knife and slashed at once. In the rainy night, only their silhouettes were left on the ground after being chopped down.
Today's Lin Xiangzhi's true strength is close to the three realms of true essence. Facing this group of soldiers and bandits, she doesn't even bat an eyelid.
Finally, when she came back, there were already corpses outside.
Ji Que has already counted the silver, the total is three hundred and sixty taels plus some gold and silver jewelry.
The bodyguards and Jia Siyi were too frightened to speak out, trembling all over.
Seeing this, Ji Que couldn't help explaining: "Everyone, don't be nervous. I'm an honest and responsible scholar. It's reasonable to take a cat for self-defense when I go out, right?"
As he spoke, a hammer fell out of his crotch, and hit the face of the man who had just been caught blind and was pretending to be dead with a bang.
The man's nose was crushed, but he was still motionless, as if he was dead.
Ji Que picked up the hammer, and said kindly: "As everyone said, I am a scholar, and I will inevitably need to repair some things when I am away from home."
Before he finished speaking, a kitchen knife fell out from above, and with a buzzing sound, it pierced into the forehead of the man pretending to be dead.
He could only pull out the kitchen knife with a kind face, wiped it, and explained: "As everyone said, I am a scholar. When I go out, it is inevitable that I have to cook by myself and bring a handle."
With a click, a pair of large scissors slipped down and pierced the nose of the fallen man.
At this time, the man couldn't bear it anymore, sobbed with his face full of injuries, looked at Ji Que with his empty eyes, and cried, "Kill me! Please kill me! I can't take it anymore. "
Ji Que suddenly remembered a question related to himself, and couldn't help but ask: "There is something I want to ask, why do you treat men?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the man had pulled out the scissors from his nose, and pierced them into his neck with a click.
Ji Que couldn't bear it for a while, and sighed: "Why bother?"
As he spoke, he raised his head and found that Jia Si and his group had nestled together, looking at him in fear.
Especially the rich businessman Jia Si, he can't wait to get into the servant's ass.
Ji Que could only touch his head, and explained: "That, everyone, don't be nervous."
As soon as he spoke, everyone's necks tightened, and they looked like frightened ducks, and suddenly became more nervous.
Well, I'm such a nice guy.
