Holy Bone

Chapter 10 Fate!Incredible!

"Truly!—"

"Truly!—"

"At one or two o'clock in the morning, the sky is dry and things are dry, so be careful with the candles."

"clang--"

In Chang County, two watchmen, one holding a lantern and a bang, the other holding a gong, with a hazy half-moon overhead, in the dark, the voices gradually fade away.

Jin An happened to pass by the two watchmen.

Just happened to return to the inn before the curfew at [-]:[-].

The ancients had little night life, and a curfew was imposed at [-]:[-] a.m., prohibiting people from taking to the streets, except for funerals, childbirth, and illness.

And in the event that Xiang Yong, a night patrolman, was caught, he would be punished with a cane of thirty to fifty or more, and he would be punished on the spot.

One more is divided into five points.

One point is almost 24 minutes or so.

One or two o'clock is equivalent to around eight o'clock in the evening.

It is unrealistic for people to go to the brothel in the middle of the night like in ancient TV dramas.The brothel also had to be closed during the curfew, so the literati and pranksters all arrived in advance, and then closed the door all night to recite poetry, compose flowers, wine and play flute until early morning.

Don't ask Jinan why he knows so much.

He also heard from a friend.

The inn where Jin An lives is run by a 30-year-old beautiful woman named Fen Ni Su Rong, who wears a woman's hair in a bun.

Jin An heard from the second in the shop that the shopkeeper was a widow and had arranged for a baby kiss since he was a child. As a result, it was just the first day after the door, and before he entered the bridal chamber, the groom was kidnapped by a group of bandits on the way to the groom's office.

The shopkeeper is also a virtuous woman. Although she only has the name of husband and wife, she has never remarried, and she is willing to wear a bun as a widow.

When Jin An walked into the inn, he happened to see girls, one big and one small, one about 16 years old, and the other under six or seven years old, like a pair of big and small sisters, chatting with the shopkeeper like little sparrows Talk on and on.

The eldest sister has a luggage on her back and a sharp sword in her hand. She seems to be a girl who has been walking away since she was a child, riding a horse and using a sword to travel the world?

My elder sister, Young Sixteen, is in her mature years. She has dark eyebrows and clear eyes, her face is as beautiful as snow-white porcelain, and her legs are firm and firm. Perhaps it is because of her martial arts practice, so she has no excess fat and her breasts are full...

Uh.

It was a boobs girl.

Women who practice martial arts in the rivers and lakes are different from men. They avoid disturbing the balance of swordsmanship due to the dancing of the double cranes, and the enemy finds flaws, so they have the habit of practicing martial arts from a young age.

People are very beautiful.

Just a little colder.

The iron sword in the shuriken makes the whole person look murderous, like a stranger who refuses to be thousands of miles away.

As for the five- or six-year-old child, she looks like a snow-white porcelain doll, and her cute big eyes are more delicate than those with brown contact lenses.

Just at this moment, there was a servant in the store, holding a bunch of baggage, and was about to pass by him. Jin An grabbed the servant and asked curiously, "Your shopkeeper is visiting relatives today?"

Jin An is now considered a half-famous person in Changxian County. The servant did not dare to neglect, and paused to answer: "I heard the two young ladies calling the shopkeeper's aunt, she should be the shopkeeper's niece."

After speaking, the servant pulled Jin An aside secretly, avoiding the shopkeeper's gaze, and then whispered gossip:
"The two young ladies are the daughters of Magistrate Zhang. I only learned today that Magistrate Zhang has two daughters."

"The eldest daughter has been frail and sick since she was a child, so she was sent to the mountains to practice martial arts by the magistrate Zhang since she was a child, and she just returned to Chang County. As a result, she had a fight with the magistrate Zhang for some reason. Then she took her sister with her. I ran away from home. Because I forgot to take the entanglement, I ran away and went to the shopkeeper, and this is the only way I can see it."

"I didn't expect the shopkeeper to be Zhang Zhixian's compatriot by blood. She doesn't look alike at all, and I've never heard anyone talk about it."

Jin An was also greatly surprised after hearing this.

Think of Zhang county magistrate with dark skin.

The siblings really don't look alike at all.

However, Jin An also noticed a detail, this magistrate Zhang seems to be a cautious person.

He is obviously the county magistrate and the largest official in the county, but he is cautious and cautious. He protects his blood relatives so deeply that no one outsiders knows that Magistrate Zhang has an eldest daughter and a widow sister.

Jin An is not a person who likes to gossip and inquire about other people's privacy. After chatting casually, he noticed a wrap that the little servant was holding in his hand, so he curiously asked the little servant what he was doing at night with a burden.

The little servant didn't hide it, and said truthfully: "Some time ago, a Taoist priest lived in our shop."

"That Taoist priest is wearing a five-color Taoist robe. He has a quirky personality and speaks very little. He is usually taciturn when greeting him, but half a month ago, the Taoist priest in five-color Taoist robe suddenly left without saying goodbye before checking out with us."

"The shopkeeper thought that the Taoist priest would come back, so he kept a guest room for him, but he had been waiting for half a month without any news. The goat had a very good appetite, so he gave it weeds, didn’t eat rotten vegetables, but only ate carrots and peanuts, and the shopkeeper turned pale with anger, and he gritted his teeth every day, cursing that he wanted to eat mutton.”

"No, half a month has passed, and the shopkeeper will not come back when he sees the Taoist priest. It is estimated that the Taoist priest also knows that he can't pay the money for half a month, so he owes the money and runs away, so the shopkeeper plans not to insist on waiting any longer today. , let me see if the Taoist priest has left anything valuable, and by the way, kill the fat goat in the backyard and make a mutton hot pot to get back some money."

"Just as soon as the hot water was boiled and the sheep were about to be slaughtered, the eldest daughter of the magistrate Zhang ran away from home with her younger sister, and both of them came to the store to go to the shopkeeper."

Taoist priest!

Five-color Taoist robe?

Jin An was surprised at first, and then hurriedly asked:

"Does that Taoist priest in five-color Taoist robe look middle-aged with a pair of blue and white ten-square shoes on his feet?" Jin An hurriedly asked, breathing quickly.

The servant looked at Jin An in surprise and asked the young master how did you know?
Do you know this eccentric Taoist priest?
Jin An did not answer, fate!It's amazing!

He thought of the breath-seeing technique of a Taoist priest in five-colored robes, and his ability. He is definitely a master of Taoism, a master with real skills, and he is definitely not that kind of charlatan.

Jin An's head moved.

In these relics, you may also find the other party's last words and letters, and see if the other party has any unfulfilled wishes. Even after his death, this expert still does not forget to save people. He sees what can help the other party. of.

"As for the items left by the Taoist priest, including the goat in the backyard, let me buy them. I will pay for the money that the Taoist priest owes."

Jin An said to the servant.

He is now small and rich, not bad for money.

Hearing this, the little servant was also happy, but he didn't dare to make a decision privately, so he lightly said, "Young Master, please wait for a while, and then hurriedly ran to ask the shopkeeper for instructions.

Soon the little servant ran back.

The shopkeeper agreed!
Jin An took the burden from the servant's hand.

Then, let the servant take him to the backyard to fetch sheep, but don't really make it into mutton hot pot, sheep whip hot pot, sheep egg hot pot.

Just as the servant led Jin An to the backyard, passing by the daughters of Magistrate Zhang in the lobby, the five- or six-year-old Fu Luoli, who was eating her fingers, hid behind her sister and secretly watched Jin An passing by. .

Jin An felt the gaze, blinked at the big-eyed Fu Loli, smiled warmly, and continued to follow the servant to the backyard.

Fu Luoli was amused by Jin An's funny, and made a silver bell laughter.

"What's wrong little sister?"

"Eldest sister, the person who walked over just now is much prettier than the muscular uncles around my mother."

"Don't talk nonsense, little girl! What muscular uncle, those people are the guards to protect the mother."
