The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 19

Since Shan Xiongxin left, Duan Wuji's family has returned to a peaceful and normal life. Apart from going to the fields, Duan Yanqing and Duan Changsheng spend their days reading and writing.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu drove the cattle every day, leaving early and returning late, working hard day and night.

Not to mention, this Tieniu is really a diligent kid, he is busy every day taking care of the herd, providing Duan Wuji with a lot of time to practice martial arts.

The more the two little friends got along, the better. Gradually, Duan Wuji learned to play the flute from Tieniu, and when Tieniu was fine, he gradually learned martial arts from Duan Wuji.

At noon that day, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu drove the cattle into the cowshed and went home for lunch. They saw Duan Yannian, the third uncle of the third grandfather's family, sitting in the room.

When Duan Wuji and Tieniu met, they quickly saluted Duan Yannian.

Duan Yannian quickly waved his hand when he saw him. "Wuji, Tieniu, you don't need to be too polite. As the saying goes, is it impolite to be polite at home?"

Duan Yannian patted Duan Wuji's head and said: "Brother, sister-in-law, look how promising this child Wuji is! I haven't seen him for a few months, and this child has grown so tall, he must be taller than his brother now. "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this. "Actually, I'm not much taller than my brother, just a little taller."

Duan Yanqing looked at his youngest son and said with a smile: "Wuji, you should know how many years your brother is older than you, but now you are even taller than him."

Duan Wuji looked at his third cousin and said: "Third uncle, why are you free to come to our house today? What's the matter? Oh, don't leave at noon today, let's have dinner at our house, and let my mother bake it for you. White flour bread, fried bacon to eat."

"Okay! Third Uncle, I just haven't improved my life for many days."

Duan Yannian patted Duan Wuji's head and said.

"Actually, it's not a big deal for me to come this time. It's just that your third grandfather saw you three or four months ago. Let me come and see you. You said it's been several months and you just died at your house." Well, we agreed to stay with the family for a month."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with it, isn't it just that Tieniu has a meal at our house? I can still take care of him."

"What about the cow's food? Isn't that eliminated?"

Duan Yanqing shook his head after hearing this. "The cow has never been fed fodder since it came to our house. It's these two kids who graze the cows from dawn to dusk."

"Really? Brother, you can save yourself.

Wuji, you can come over in a few days, don't let me call you again. "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

After a short time, two large plates of fried meat were brought up, followed by a stack of pancakes.

Duan Yanqing smiled and said to Duan Yannian: "Brother, sit down and eat. My brother's family can't make anything good with this condition."

Duan Yannian laughed and said, "Brother, you can be content, this food is not bad even if you can eat it during Chinese New Year."

After lunch, Duan Yanqing said to Duan Yannian: "Brother, can I borrow your big car?"

"Hey, what's wrong with that? Now the big cart is idle at home. You can use it whenever you plan to use it. Oh, brother, do you use horses? What are you using these things for?"

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Didn't I grow some soybeans and black beans last year, the harvest last year was really good, I harvested more than 2000 catties of these beans alone.

I originally planned to keep it for myself to eat, but this year our family bought rice and noodles, and I can’t eat these things. I plan to sell this new food before it comes out. The current price Also high.New food is worthless. "

Duan Yannian nodded. "Brother, you really know how to count! No wonder you made a fortune."

"Oh, what kind of family is it? It's nothing more than poor calculations."

"Qian Suan Ji? Can Qiong Suan Ji eat meat? It's okay, it's okay, brother, I've convinced you.

Hey, brother, do you want me to help you sell beans tomorrow? "

Duan Yanqing shook his head after hearing this. "No, Changsheng and I are fine. How can we need so many people to sell a bean?"

"Well, that's good, I'll drive the cattle cart for you when it gets dark.

Hey, brother, where are you selling beans? "

"I'm planning to go to Huanglu Town to buy beans tomorrow, the market is really big, and it's easy to sell something.

Besides, the market is not far from our place, only fifteen or six miles away, so it is convenient to go back and forth. "

"Well, then, brother and sister-in-law, I will take my leave. Wuji, you can come over in a few days."

After speaking, Duan Yannian turned around and left.

After lunch, Duan Wuji drove the cattle to graze the cattle as usual. He practiced martial arts while herding the cattle, and Tieniu also learned from Duan Wuji from time to time.

It wasn't until dark that the two returned home. Duan Wuji and Tie Niu blasted the cattle into the cowshed, and saw a white horse grazing in the cowshed. Duan Wuji recognized that it was the third grandfather's family. horse.

Duan Wuji knew that his uncle must have driven the carriage over.

After Duan Wuji closed the door of the cowshed, he and Tie Niu immediately went straight to the house. When they entered the house, they saw Duan Yanqing and Duan Changsheng loading grain into the cart.

When Duan Wuji saw him, he hurried over to help. Duan Wuji picked up a bag of beans and threw it on the cart.

When Duan Yanqing saw it, he said to Duan Changsheng: "Longsheng, what strength are you doing with Wuji! Even I can't do it."

Duan Changsheng laughed and said: "He eats a lot of bastards, so he can naturally do this. Who among us can compare to him!"

After packing the beans, the family began to eat.

After eating, Duan Wuji quietly pulled Duan Changsheng aside and said: "Brother, tomorrow you will go to sell grain with dad, you have to be more careful, if anyone bullies you, come back and call me, we will not be bullied by others."

Duan Changsheng nodded. "Well, I see."

After speaking, Duan Changsheng went back to his room to rest.

Duan Wuji also returned to his residence with Tieniu.

The two couldn't sleep, so Tieniu followed Duan Wuji to practice martial arts in the yard, and they didn't go back to the house to rest until midnight.

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji was tending the iron cow, when he suddenly saw Duan Changsheng covering his face and crying, he ran over.

Duan Wuji frowned when he saw him. "Brother, what's the matter? Tell me quickly."

Duan Changsheng cried as he said: "Brother, you should go and have a look. Today we are being bullied and miserable. We sold the beans without going through a dental store. We wanted to save two dollars, but it didn't work out." This kid insists on taking [-]% ​​of our money.

I just argued with him for a few words, and the two boys slapped me four times in return, and my face was swollen from the blows. "

"What about our father?"

"Hey, what can my father do! He's sitting by the car crying now."

After Duan Wuji heard the fire, Niu turned his head and said to Tieniu: "Brother, you watch the herd, let me take a look."

After hearing this, Tieniu said to Duan Wuji: "Brother, you go and take me! If you can't beat me, I'm still your good helper. Can't it be enough to let the elder brother drive the cattle back?"

Duan Wuji listened and looked at Duan Changsheng. "Brother, are you okay?"

Duan Changsheng covered his face and said, "I'm fine, you guys go quickly."

Duan Wuji said angrily: "But I don't know Daoer!"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother, you don't know me, you know me, let's go quickly."

Tie Niu led the way, and Duan Wuji followed closely behind, running all the way to Huanglu Town.

Tieniu ran and said, "Brother, what are you going to do with this?"

"How to deal with it? No matter what, I have to subdue them, otherwise I won't be able to vent my anger. Brother, you can just look at me when the time comes, and take action when it's time to do so. You don't have to be polite."

"Okay, let's do that."

After a short time, the two of them ran to Huanglu Town. Tieniu led Duan Wuji straight to the grain market. When he went to the market to look for it, he saw that Duan Yanqing was still crying beside the cart.

Duan Wuji tugged Duan Yanqing with his hands. "Father, don't cry, go back quickly. How much money did they deduct from us?"

Duan Yanqing wiped away his tears and said, "Well, we deducted seven years old money, this is money."

After hearing this, Duan Wuji comforted and said: "Hey, it doesn't matter. I'll be back later, can't it be all right? You drive the carriage and leave quickly, we will catch up with you in a while."

Duan Yanqing nodded after listening.

"Wuji, you are not allowed to fight! We only reason. We convince people with reason."

Duan Wuji listened and nodded. "Father, don't worry, I'll convince them in a while. You hurry up. Hey, dad, who are the two boys who beat my brother?"

Duan Yanqing pointed with his hand. "Did you see it? It's the two boys over there drinking tea."

Duan Wuji looked along Duan Yanqing's fingers, and saw two big men in their 30s sitting in front of a table drinking tea, and there were two plates of snacks on the table.

After hearing Duan Wuji's words, Duan Yanqing drove the cattle cart away wiping away tears.

Seeing his father walking away, Duan Wuji immediately walked towards these two people.

Tieniu took a quick step, picked up the teapot on the table, and slammed it down on a person's head. With a "pop", the teapot shattered, and blood flowed from the boy's head immediately, scalding his head. This kid screamed strangely, and Tie Niu kicked the kid's belly.

Duan Wuji smiled and nodded when he saw it, and said in his heart that it's okay, if it's black enough, it's up to me.

Duan Wuji chased the moon with a shooting star, punched another person's mouth with one punch, and punched this person's chest with another punch, and at the same time kicked towards this person's feet with a sweeping kick.

These two punches are strong.Hearing only two slaps, the boy was knocked down to the ground, opened his mouth suddenly, and spat out five or six teeth from his mouth, and then opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth.

The boy died as soon as he rolled his eyes.

When Tieniu saw this, he hurriedly said: "Brother, be gentle, don't kill anyone, it's not easy to deal with it."

Duan Wuji smiled. "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, I just suffered a slight injury, and I can't die."

The kid who was kicked down by Tieniu rolled on the spot, and wanted to run when he stood up.

Duan Wuji came to chase the toad with eight steps, rushed to the boy's back, and kicked the boy's back knee.

This kid immediately came to eat shit like a dog, and fell to the ground all at once.

Duan Wuji kicked his waist and eyes, and the kid spit out all the tea he drank just now and even the food he ate in the morning with a wow.

Tie Niu laughed when he saw it. "Brother, it's better for you! My brother is far behind you."

Duan Wuji looked at the kid on the ground and said: "Boy, do you know why I beat you? How dare you fucking beat my brother? Don't you want to live? Come on, take out the money we cheated today."

As Duan Wuji said, he turned the kid over, and pointed at his face, "Pa, pa, pa, that's four mouths."

The boy's face was immediately swollen from the beating, and two teeth spit out.

The boy knew that he had encountered a problem today, so he immediately took out a tael of silver from his pocket and handed it over.

Duan Wuji put the silver into his pocket and was about to leave.The kid pointed. "I said brother, if you dare to leave your name, if you are a good man, you will leave your name."

Duan Wuji sneered and said: "It seems that you are not convinced! Well, then I will leave some marks for you."

As he said that, Duan Wuji picked up the rotten teapot on the ground, grabbed the boy's head, pressed his knee against the boy's neck, and cut off one of the boy's ears with the pieces of the rotten teapot. "

Blood flowed down immediately.The boy's parents screamed in pain.

Duan Wuji became cruel, and stomped on this man's feet twice. Hearing two "clicks", the two feet were broken, and the boy passed out immediately due to the pain.

Tie Niu saw it and smiled and said, "Brother, is the attack hard enough? Doesn't that kid still have two ears? I'll grab one for him too."

As he said that, Niu Tie hugged the man's head and tore it violently, and one of the man's ears was forcibly pulled off.

Niu Tie took out the silver from the man's pocket and put it into his own pocket.

Duan Wuji said to Tieniu: "Brother, let's retreat quickly and follow me."

Duan Wuji took the lead and ran south with Tie Niu.

In a short time, the two of them ran away without a trace.

The two ran out for six or seven miles in one breath, and Tieniu gasped and said, "Brother, are you running in a hurry? Our home is in the north, why are you running south? This is not far from our home. Is it farther away?"

Duan Wuji smiled. "I said brother, don't you understand? We beat someone just now. If we ran back along the same road, wouldn't we tell them the direction of our house? Let them look for it in the south direction, anyway. This is going farther and farther away from our house. When it gets dark, we can go back by another way, won't it be enough?"

Tie Niu listened and nodded.

"Well, brother, you're more thoughtful, okay, let's do it like this."

After dark, the two of them secretly made a detour to their hometown.
