Chapter 480 Chapter Seven Beauty Like Jade

In metropolises like Chang'an and Luoyang, they are relatively slow to the subtle changes of the seasons, but in Tongwan City, because it is closely related to the prairie, it reflects the changes in the natural climate without omission.She is like a flat boat in the rolling green sea, making the boat riders feel the vitality of spring. On a bright spring morning, Ba Fenghan, Kou Zhong, and Xu Ziling, who hadn't slept all night, sat lazily in the original seats of last night, facing the constant traffic of cars, horses and pedestrians, enjoying the food provided by Chengzhen's family. A plate of grapes as bright as pearls.

The news of killing the three demons of Heishui spread like a plague, especially Ba Fenghan is the only master outside the Great Wall who dared to challenge Bi Xuan head-on, which caused a sensation in Tongwan. This is faithfully reflected in the attitudes and expressions of the people passing by. Kou Zhong and others returned the salute and greetings from the passers-by with a smile. There is a moment, and there is a moment. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling changed from a Han dog to a great Han hero who killed the evil. Ba Fenghan tossed a grape high, took it calmly, and said while chewing: "Someone will bring my daughter soon."

Kou Zhong lost his voice: "What?" He almost spit out the grapes he was eating with gusto. Ba Fenghan laughed loudly and said, "Don't you know that on the prairie, daughters are the most precious property, followed by top horses. According to Turkic law, whoever disables a person for life, the offender will pay his daughter for compensation." Come out, and those who don’t have daughters will pay other property.” Xu Ziling frowned and said, "Why did you say that someone will send your daughter here soon?" Ba Fenghan shrugged and said calmly: "They."

Kou Zhong scratched his head and said, "They, your grandma's! Who are they?" Ba Fenghan said: "Of course he is someone who wants to ask me to kill someone. What other people can't do, 'Sword Tyrant' Ba Fenghan will definitely be able to do." The two were laughed at by him. Ba Fenghan smiled wryly and said: "Besides Sword Ba, my younger brother has more than a dozen other nicknames that have been imposed on me. Saying it will definitely make you laugh to death. It seems like doing Shi Zhixuan a big favor for nothing." Kou Zhong said with lingering fear: "Shi Zhixuan is really powerful, last night was like a nightmare."

Ba Fenghan nodded and said: "Compared to him, Qu Ao is just like a toddler. I am afraid that the three great masters in the world will not be able to break his seal of immortality and kill him." Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Brother Fenghan has another nickname? I can't bear my curiosity." Ba Fenghan saluted a group of passing young knights, they came to salute them for the third time, and replied: "The decent one is 'Little Grandmaster'." Kou Zhong clapped his legs and said: "Little Grandmaster Ba Fenghan, your writing is described as crumpled, while Jianba is too old-fashioned and lacks new ideas, and Ba Fenghan is the most brilliant, why do you need a nickname?"

Xu Ziling suddenly said a little nervously: "Feng Han's curse is so experienced that someone really offered his daughter here!" The two stopped talking, followed Xu Ziling's gaze to the north end of the long street, and the two pairs of eyes immediately shone brightly. A beauty as gorgeous as the rising sun in the sky came slowly on a horse.Owning her is like owning all the spring scenery of the prairie.The people on the street were all dumbfounded.For the first time, the people around turned their attention away from the three of them. She was dressed like a bride, her jet-black hair was woven into two straight, lively, light and beautiful long braids, and she was tied with a small flower scarf embroidered with diamonds.A pair of clean and crystal-clear beautiful eyes are like the brightest stars hanging in the dark night sky. Against the backdrop of two slender eyebrows, they are like clean and bright Liquan in the desert; coupled with a handsome nose, The two juicy and dewy lips like petals, coupled with the oval face, are becoming more and more glamorous, who can't help but fall in love with them.The two small dimples on the cheeks exude a healthy pink glow, under the reflection of the two long strings of earrings hanging on the small ears and the pearl necklace around the slender neck, they are full of scorching youth, so thick that they cannot be melted. open enthusiasm.

Over the close-fitting tights, a robe of elegant color is put on, with sleeves reaching to the wrist.About five inches away from the cuffs, there is a wide border pattern embroidered, and the collar is also lace. The trousers are composed of five wide cloth loops of different colors. She is wearing sheepskin riding boots, which are very eye-catching. There was an old man riding around her at the front and back, it seemed that one should be her grandfather, and the other might be a relative like an uncle. All three of them looked at Kou Zhong and the others, obviously aiming at them. Kou Zhong said dreamily: "Now I can understand why girls are the most precious property on the prairie!"

Such a beauty is enough to compete with beauties of the same rank as Shang Xiufang, Shang Xiuxun, Shi Qingxuan, Shi Jixuan, and Song Yuzhi for a day. The three of them became nervous, fearing that she would really come to them, but if not, they would suddenly feel lost and their moods were quite conflicted. The beauty and her party finally came to the street under the stone platform in front of the three of them, and they kicked off their horses at the same time. The three woke up with a start, and it was the first time they deduced from each other's dexterous movements that they were not ordinary people.

The beauty bowed and saluted with a smile, and said in correct Chinese: "Three great heroes, can I sit down and say a few words." The three hurriedly stood up and returned the salute. Kou Zhong humbly replied: "It's our honor, what's the girl's name?" The beauty moved lightly and sat on a chair facing the street. Her "grandpa and uncle" stood behind her like a servant. By this time, of course they knew that each other was right. The three sat down. The beautiful woman glanced around, revealing an extremely charming smile, two dimples of wine rippling on her jade cheeks, white and neat teeth appeared between her fragrant lips, and she said in a soft and sweet voice: "People on the grassland They all call me Mrs. Meiyan, so that people even forget my original name."

The three of them were shocked, thinking of the colorful Yiwu tents outside the city, how could they have imagined that it was actually a beautiful lady, so young and beautiful. Mrs. Meiyan introduced the two people behind her, one is the left elder, the other is the right elder, both of them are expressionless, if it is not they who are being introduced, but someone else. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were full of hostility toward her because they didn't know whether to call them Guan Ping or Duan Zhu's liar, but she sat in front of her with a lively face, but they couldn't condense any bad feelings towards her.

Ba Fenghan ignored the gazes of the onlookers gathered around, and said with a smile: "Madam came to see us, what can I tell you?" Mrs. Meiyan looked at Ba Fenghan's face with affectionate eyes, shrugged her shoulders slightly, and said, "Isn't it okay for people to come here because of their fame? Let's meet and talk, not only to increase understanding, but also to see each other on what matters We can work together, right?" Kou Zhong said indifferently: "Does Madam have a Han man named Duan Zhu?" Madam Meiyan frowned, showing a pensive expression, she turned her head and asked the right elder behind her, "Do we have a Han named Duan Xu?" Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were stunned, not to mention that the two elders could also understand Chinese. The right elder took out a three-inch-thick booklet that looked like an account book from his pocket, and flipped through it solemnly. He explained: "There are too many people working for the servants." Elder You finished reading, shook his head and said, "There is no one named Duan Zhu." Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling heard you staring at me, of course they refused to believe it, but they couldn't do anything about pushing her like this. Mrs. Meiyan let out a sweet smile like a silver bell, stretched out her slender jade hands, took the booklet, put it on the table, spread it out and said, "Three, please have a look." The three of them took a closer look, and saw that the booklet was filled with Yiwu characters that the three of them could not understand. Mrs. Meiyan said "Ouch" and "I'm sorry", then turned to the back page, and there were several Han people's names on the left, but Duan Zhu's name was not among them. Elder You said: "This is the bill for Madam's expenses. Anyone who contributes to Madam will have their names listed in the book, with detailed records of work done, remuneration received, daily expenses, etc." Madam Meiyan said softly: "For me, it's just a business, from a country to a gang, so we must live within our means and control costs. Do you think so?" Looking at Ba Fenghan, he pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "There are very few Turkic people who are as elegant as you." Ba Fenghan said with a smile: "Madam probably doesn't have a good impression of Turkic people." Madam Meiyan sighed softly: "People of the Yiwu nationality don't have a good opinion of the nation that worships wolves. Ba Fenghan is an exception." On the prairie, both the Turks and the Khitans worshiped wolves. The banner of the Turkic army was painted with a golden wolf head, which was called Fuli in the war, which means wolf. Ba Fenghan asked in surprise, "Why am I an exception?" The glamorous lady's eyes are shining, making people feel that besides her beauty, she also has extraordinary wisdom, and she is definitely not just a stunner with a charming appearance.She said in a calm tone: "Ba Fenghan has become a figure on the prairie who personally opposes the powerful. When talking about Ba Fenghan, who dares not to say that he is a hero." Ba Fenghan laughed hoarsely and said, "Little brother, how can I afford it?" Xu Ziling said calmly: "Does Madam have a five-colored gemstone?" A smile appeared on the lips of Mrs. Meiyanxiang, and suddenly her left hand came out through the sleeve, and she turned her palm upwards. One was slightly larger than a night pearl, and seven colors flowed in it, and it was brilliant under the sun. Anyone who is not blind will know it. The colored stone, which is a rare art treasure, suddenly appeared in front of the three of them. The slender, gentle and indescribably touching jade palm sets off the multicolored gemstones like foreign objects from the fairy world. This move was unexpected by the three of them, and they were stunned for a moment. Mrs. Meiyan's voice came into the ears of the three of them and said: "If the three of you are not bothered, can you send the five stones to Longquan for me and hand them over to Baiziting?" Kou Zhong frowned and said, "Frankly speaking, madam is someone who is hard to refuse, but I still can't figure out why madam is so sure that my three brothers will accept this proposal." Mrs. Meiyan lowered her jade hand to a height of an inch from the table, tilted her palm, and let the round gem gently roll off the table. The three of them watched with trepidation, for fear that the gem would be slightly damaged due to collision, because any slight defect would also be damaged. unforgivable mistake. Multicolored stones are so precious! Mrs. Meiyan turned her beautiful eyes, cast a glance at Kou Zhong that seemed to have a deep meaning, and said tenderly: "Because for the well-known young commander Kou Zhonglai at home and abroad, it will be a moving journey to Longquan. Not to mention The most important thing is that this stone is the Khitan's national treasure. No matter how much they pay, the Khitan people will not let it fall into the hands of their old enemy Bai Ziting. The Khitan people invited Shiwei people to help out. I heard that Shiwei's two most outstanding Two masters, the two brothers Belegunatei and Bugunatai of Junwawe, are here for this purpose." Ba Fenghan sighed: "Madam's words are as fascinating as Madam's demeanor." Kou Zhong said, "Madam, do you want us to be your bodyguards?" Mrs. Meiyan stood up, shook her head and said: "Now everyone in this street knows that the slave family has handed over the five-colored stones to you, and it has nothing to do with the slave family. See you again." Xu Ziling smiled bitterly and said, "Aren't you afraid that we will steal the treasure for ourselves, or that we will give it to the Khitan people because of our gap with Baiziting?" Madam Meiyan smiled coquettishly, "Then I have no choice but to blame myself for the inhumanity I entrusted to me." After finishing speaking, he and the left and right elders quickly got on their horses and left in such a graceful manner. Kou Zhong stared blankly at the five-colored stone left by Mrs. Meiyan, and sighed: "Another headache-inducing beauty." Ba Fenghan reached out to pick up the colored stone with his fingertips, brought it to examine about three inches in front of his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Last night, Shi Zhixuan has made me feel that I have been reduced from a hunter to a prey, and now this feeling is even stronger." Kou Zhong smiled wryly and said: "Ma Ji must be lucky, otherwise how could there be side effects and we can't concentrate our energy and time to deal with him." Ba Fenghan smiled and said, "Young Master, do you think this treasure can be exchanged for 80,000 sheepskins from Bai Ziting? This request is not too much! I, Ba Fenghan, will receive a reward for doing things for anyone." Put the colored stones into the pocket of Kou Zhong's sheepskin coat. Kou Chong pressed the five-colored stones through the bag, and said in surprise as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Maybe he hasn't adapted to the water and soil of the grassland, otherwise his brain will not be so dull. Miss's 80,000 sheepskins were bought for Baiziting and Huihe people." , it’s the eldest lady who pays for it, it’s his turn this time.” Xu Ziling said: "If you have money, it may not be immediately available. Will you wait for a year or so?" Kou Zhong stretched out his hand to press Xu Ziling's shoulder, and said triumphantly: "Xiaoling is an honest man after all, his brain doesn't know how to turn around in this matter, Bai Ziting can buy skins from Maji, why worry about shortages." Ba Fenghan jumped up and took back the Xuanxuan Sword that was on the table to shock the prairie, hung it on his waist, and said happily: "It's time to let the horse go for a walk." Kou Zhong took out the five-colored stone without looking at it, put his right hand over his left, stuffed it into Xu Ziling's coat pocket, and said with a smile, "Shao Ling takes the least things, of course you are responsible." Xu Ziling said helplessly: "Don't worry, I don't want Missy to perish like this." There was a sudden sound of hooves, dust rolled at the end of the long street, and more than a dozen galloped horses came. Ba Fenghan sat back in his chair and said casually: "It's from the Black Water Department. As long as the two old brothers reveal their relationship with Tuli, Baobao can pass the test smoothly." When Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling both thought that the black sailors came to find them to settle the account of the three evil spirits of the black water, unexpectedly, all the black sailors rushed to the streets and alleys, shouting loudly along the way, listening to their anxious and nervous tone, the three Although people don't understand Heishui dialect, they can still infer that the announcement will not be good news. ? The people on the street heard the sound and could hardly hear the mood of imminent disaster. They ran around, the street was in chaos, and the calm and peaceful atmosphere disappeared. Two black sailors ran along the street, still yelling those two words, Chengzhen father and son ran out from the factory, the eldest son Muke shouted at the black sailor, the black sailor answered while walking, and then went away quickly. All the sons of Chengzhen retreated back home with pale faces. The three of them stared blankly at Chengzhen, who seemed to have aged a few years suddenly, and said in panic: "It's finally here." Xu Ziling said, "Who's here?" Chengzhen said: "The golden wolf fighters are advancing towards Tongwan, and they can arrive here at midnight tonight at the earliest. We must immediately flee to the mountains for refuge, and hope they won't chase them." The three of them felt their scalps go numb when they heard that it was Jieli who pursued them so hard that they would not let them go. They couldn't help but think that it might be those big food merchants who leaked the news. Ba Fenghan tugged at Chengzhen's sleeves, which he was about to return to the house, and said: "How many days will it take?" Cheng Zhen smiled wryly and said, "How fast can we drag the old and the young, at least two days." Ba Fenghan let go of the sleeves of this old man who was afraid of becoming a Turkic slave. Chengzhen said: "Get out of here quickly, alas! I really envy you." After that, return to the house. The two of you looked at each other, and didn't know what to say for a while, because they abandoned their homes and took refuge in the mountains, how could they feel at ease. Kou Zhong said: "How about we escort them to the mountains." Ba Fenghan shook his head and said: "The only result of doing this is that everyone will die together. If Jieli is still the thousand bodyguards, we will definitely lose in a head-on confrontation. There is still no way to lure Jieli away. Why don't we stay together?" This guards the city." Xu Ziling nodded and said, "Let's do it like this. The matter started because of us, and we should solve it." "Dang! Dang!" The echo of the bell added to the tense situation before the imminent rain. Ba Fenghan stood up and said: "I'll catch a black sailor to ask about Jieli's situation. You are responsible for drawing arrows. Fortunately, we have two good bows, otherwise we wouldn't even be qualified to fight hard." Suddenly the street was full of fleeing chariots and horses, most of them rushed to the north gate, and the three of them were very sad to see. Kou Zhong slapped the table with his palm, made a "bang", and said angrily, "Damn it, I, Kou Zhong, will teach you how to walk around without finishing your meal. It's easy to come and hard to go." Xu Ziling smiled wryly and said, "Don't brag! If we can survive, we are praying for God's blessing, why should we be delusional." Ba Fenghan laughed and said: "I said earlier that hanging out with you is always colorful, and now this prophecy is unfortunately fulfilled again, just to prevent the people of Tongwan from being slaves, so it doesn't matter if you die." The three of them agreed abruptly, determined to fight to the death.
