I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 75, Your Circle

In the early morning, the orange-red sun falls, splashing ink on the thousands of mountains and rivers, blending with the thin mist like smoke, covering the mountains and mountains with colorful yarns.

Above the blue sky and under the white clouds, there are goshawks singing, circling past, and suddenly swooping down.

In such an environment, a caravan slowly walked between the mountains and gullies, like ants walking in the mounds.

Squeak!

Behind the caravan, the Fang family's carriage drove by, splashing a little bit of dust and smoke on the cracked ground due to the drought.

"Brother, look quickly, the blade of grass here has jagged teeth!"

"Does that rock look like a puppy?"

"What a big eagle!"

……

The two little girls, Fang Ling and Nannan, since they left the city, have opened the curtains of the car and leaned against the window, looking out curiously, chirping with great interest, like two birds out of the cage.

It's like: this is not a road trip, but an outing.

On the other hand, Fang Xue's nerves were tense, his hands were clenched, and he was staring outside nervously, keeping an eye out for danger, as if he was afraid of being persecuted.

The third lady was a little better, but also a little nervous.

This is not surprising.

When they were in the city, they often heard others say how chaotic and dangerous it was outside, but now that they really went out of the city, they naturally felt uneasy.

In addition, stepping out of the comfort zone and leaving the familiar living environment may cause some discomfort for a while, which is very normal.

"Mother, third sister, don't be afraid, relax!"

Fang Rui smiled, turned around, and secretly patted the back of San Niangzi's hand: "Where is I!"

The third lady's pretty face flushed, Xiafei hid her cheeks while holding Fang Rui's hand.

Fang Xueshi noticed the small movements of the two of them, spat, and turned to look out the car window: "Hey, Brother Rui, look, is there a refugee over there?"

Fang Rui saw that he was indeed a refugee, with a sallow complexion and ragged clothes, like a savage.

In fact, he has better eyesight. Compared with Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi, he has found several refugees one after another along the way.

"The life of these people is hard, they eat grass roots and bark, and they don't stop eating..." Fang Xue sighed, thinking about the rumors.

"Auntie, these people are pitiful, but it's not that simple." The third lady shook her head, with vigilance in her bright eyes.

"Third sister is right. Those refugees are pitiful, but they are only in front of people who are stronger than them. If they are facing weak people, they will rob and even eat..."

Fang Rui shook his head, and didn't continue, "When you are hungry, people eat each other" has never been an exaggerated rhetoric in history books.

Even though he didn't go on, Fang Xue and San Niangzi guessed the rest, they were shocked, and exclaimed in a low voice, and even the two little girls, Fang Ling and Nannan, looked over curiously.

"Let's follow the caravan, don't be afraid. Mother, third sister, look, that refugee is gone!"

This is the advantage of following the caravan. It can avoid some dangers and reduce many unnecessary troubles.

If there were only one or two carriages, there was a high probability that refugees would have come and attacked them, and something unbearable had happened.

Fang Rui was naturally not afraid, but it was also a shock.

It can be said: After leaving the city, the law of the jungle has been brought to the extreme.

"Um?!"

At this time, Fang Rui's ears moved, and he keenly heard the voice coming from behind.

"Hurry up, Uncle Wang, the caravan is ahead, let's hurry up, we will catch up soon!" It was a young male voice, his tone full of excitement.

"My lord, if you weren't serious and refused to give orders to the soldiers guarding the city gate, how could it have been so long? We have already joined the caravan!" The voice was relatively mature, complaining.

"If it was before... Oh, let's not talk about it, Uncle Wang, I know I was wrong, let's hurry up!"

"Okay, young master and madam, sit down!"

……

In the distance behind, a donkey cart gradually caught up.

On the donkey cart, a handsome and handsome young man lifted the curtain and looked forward.

The one driving the donkey cart was a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s with an ugly face and a tumor on his chin. He should be the "Uncle Wang" in the young population.

Fang Rui looked familiar, and suddenly remembered, isn't this the donkey cart we met at the gate of the city?
The other party was ignorant, refused to pay the favor fee, and was in a stalemate with the soldiers guarding the city gate, but he didn't expect that he also followed the caravan to Fucheng?

As the donkey cart approached and noticed the gaze ahead, the young man opened the curtain a little, straightened his waist, and patted the brocade robe on his body, revealing the jade pendant hanging around his waist indiscriminately, showing that the rich man identity of.

Then, slowly, holding Fan'er in hand, he ordered: "Uncle Wang, slow down, mother is a little uncomfortable due to the bumps."

A graceful and mature female voice came from the carriage: "It's too fast, it's a little bumpy."

"Okay, son, madam!" Uncle Wang agreed and slowed down the donkey cart.

"Wow, look, that's a donkey!"

"Not as good as our horse!"

Fang Ling and Nannan looked behind curiously.

"Don't look around, it's a big family!" Fang Xue pulled them over with a somewhat cautious expression.

The third lady is a little better.

In the past, she helped those military chiefs take care of their properties, and she also met some children of rich families, but she didn't catch a cold.

"A big family?! In Changshan City, how can there be any big family?"

Fang Rui shook his head.

After the Taiping army entered the city, even if the big households in the city escaped disaster, they were ruined and declined, and now they are not much different from ordinary people.

'This should be one of them.However, judging from what happened at the city gate and the way the young man held it just now, it seems that his mentality has not changed yet. '

Just like: After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, those old Eight Banners are still poor and fastidious.

'A phoenix on the ground is not as good as a chicken, that is, it just feels good about itself!Besides, what big family, how does it compare with the Lin family and the Xia family?Isn't it also extinct! '

Fang Rui shook his head slightly, not paying much attention to it in his heart, and said casually: "Mother, third sister, don't care too much, just treat it as an ordinary person."

"This is a rich family, how can they be regarded as ordinary people?" Fang Xue's mentality has not yet changed.

"Auntie, brother Rui of our family is a middle-grade martial artist, and he is no worse than a rich family!" San Niangzi lowered her voice in the second half of the sentence.

She glanced at Fang Rui, Qiu Shui's bright eyes were full of admiration and pride: "However, let's live our lives straight, we don't bully others, we don't need to please others, we live in our own way, as long as the well water does not offend the river water."

……

At this time, because the donkey cart joined, someone from the caravan ahead came over.

"Doctor Fang!"

"Chen Guanshi!" Fang Rui nodded slightly in return.

This steward Chen was named Chen Yu, and he had paid the deposit and communicated with the caravan along the way through this person.

After Chen Guanshi greeted Fang Rui, he looked at the young man, and his attitude was obviously more eager: "So it's Young Master Chang. I thought your house wasn't leaving? It seems that there was a delay? Just catch up." what!"

He naturally investigated the backgrounds of the people who followed the caravan.

Fang Rui is an advanced martial artist, that's all, he can only be regarded as average; and this Mr. Chang, just as Fang Rui expected, is a wealthy family who has declined, and a dead camel is bigger than a horse. The guard of Uncle Wang is Rank seven martial artist.

"My family is in decline, so I can't just say 'Master Chang', just call me Chang Qing, or Mr. Chang." Having said that, there is obvious self-confidence in his expression.

However, Chen Guanshi is a veteran of the world, and with a few words of flattery, he made Chang Qing smile.

Of course, he was more enthusiastic about Chang Qing, but he didn't neglect Fang Rui and said a few words.

Fang Rui didn't care either, no matter Chen Guanshi, Chang Qing, or even this caravan, they were just passing by.

'However, the Chang family?I remembered! ' His heart skipped a beat.

At the beginning, after selling medicine in the black market and killing Zhou Changlin and Gao Tong, there was a big family that invited Fang Rui to be a nursing home.

If he remembered correctly, this Chang family seemed to be the first one to find him.

It's just that the feng shui took turns in the back, Fang Rui broke through again and again, stirring up the wind and rain in the dark, dominating the situation; on the other hand, the Chang family declined.

Chen Guanshi didn't stay for long, he greeted Chang Qing and Fang Rui, and told him, "If you encounter refugees on the road, don't do charity, or they will swarm you." After doing some things like that, he returned to the front.

The caravan continued on its way.

Perhaps because he felt that the carriage was too stuffy, Mr. Changqing Chang didn't go in again, and sat down next to Uncle Wang, in the co-driver's seat of the donkey cart.

But with his outfit, brocade clothes and jade pendants, it looks a little funny.

'The rich second generation of Rolls-Royce got on the co-pilot of the donkey cart? ! '

Fang Rui thought of this metaphor, smiled lightly, shook his head, looked away, and continued on his way.

……

It is actually very tedious to drive all the time.

On the way, there was no slap in the face or any enmity. That Mr. Changqing Chang was just a dandy from a poor family. Maybe he was more self-confident and face-saving, but he was not mentally retarded. Fang Rui didn't bring himself to be sarcastic. halo.

Even, while driving in this field, the caravan's nerves were faintly tense, how could they have so much thought and focus on other things?

Fang Rui was relatively relaxed. With his keen senses and his physical strength, he would not be afraid as long as he was not facing hundreds of well-trained and hard-wearing troops.

This is the bottom line.

The ones who are really relaxed and carefree are the two little girls Fang Ling and Nannan.

However, the wild scenery is monotonous, and most of the places are dull yellow, and they get tired of seeing too much. In the middle of the morning, they lost that lively energy and became listless.

Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi are also not in good spirits.

Fang Rui also has a solution.

When encountering an uphill, he would push behind, and let Fang Xueshi, San Niangzi, Fang Ling, and Nannan come down for a walk, or take turns sitting outside in the co-driver's position of the carriage to get some air.

Not only Fang Ling and Nannan, but also Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi will take turns.

When it's time for the third lady, Fang Rui will still do some small tricks, sneaking around, amidst the excitement, it doesn't feel like a honeymoon.

In stark contrast to the five members of the Fang family, Chang Qing at the back kept shouting things like 'it's so boring' and 'I knew it was going to be so hard, so I wouldn't have left'.

Hearing this man's complaint, Fang Rui and the other five felt better for no reason.

That Mr. Evergreen Chang didn't even know that he had become someone else's pleasure, along the way his family's mood-changing product.

……

At noon, a mountain spring stream.

When they arrived at the planned location, Steward Chen came over to inform him that he would rest for half an hour, eat and rest, and then set off on the road again.

People who follow the caravan like Fang Rui, the caravan does not provide food, they have to cook by themselves.

It's also simple.

'Isn't it camping in the wild?I know this! '

Fang Rui skillfully set up the iron pot, found firewood, and lit the fire.

Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi brought ingredients, fried eggs, and boiled dry noodles; Fang Ling and Nannan, two little girls, also helped to light the fire.

With the concerted efforts of the five members of the family, soon, a rich aroma was released.

under the tree.

In the mottled light and shadow, Fang Rui, Fang Xueshi, San Niangzi, Fang Ling, and Nannan sat on the bench holding bowls, eating lunch and talking in low voices. The exhaustion of the morning seemed to dissipate. .

……

the other side.

Chang Qing, Uncle Wang, and another woman, Chang Qing's mother, looked about forty years old, well maintained, with big breasts and fat buttocks, delicate appearance, fair skin, quite pretty.

However, the family didn't seem to prepare pots and pans, only some cold dry food and pastries.

Chang Qing looked over there, even though she concealed herself a bit, she was still the third lady with a beautiful face, she served Fang Rui with gentle eyebrows and eyes, and the whole family enjoyed themselves;

Looking at this side again, I already had some rotten pastries in my hand, I couldn't help but take a deep breath of the aroma wafting in the air, frowning, I took a big bite of the pastries.

"My lord, how about I go over there and buy some from someone over there?"

"No need! The bowls and chopsticks of ordinary people are not necessarily clean. I feel disgusted after eating it! Our pastry is better, the poor can't afford it. It's exquisite, and it's very beautiful... Ugh!"

……

"Um?!"

Fang Rui suddenly frowned.

"Brother Rui, what's the matter?" Mrs. Fang Xue and the third lady all looked over.

"it's okay no problem!"

Fang Rui shook his head.

There is nothing wrong with them. What really matters is Mr. Chang Qing Chang. What did he see just now?That Uncle Wang secretly pinched Mother Chang's ass!
'But that Uncle Wang, isn't he a guard?Diao Nuqi... Bah, Diao Nu bullying the master?As expected of a big family, your circle is really chaotic! '

Fang Rui complained secretly, with a secretive expression on his face, he looked over at Chang Qing with sympathy, he had a wild father without knowing it, what a pity!

However, this matter has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't bother to care about it.

At this time, the Evergreen Master suddenly put down the pastry in his hand and walked over. When he got closer, the alluring aroma in the air became more and more intense, making him secretly swallow his saliva.

"Little brother, what..."

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"What do you think of my donkey? That's it. I want to exchange it with your horse. I can add money and compensate ten taels of silver..."

Yes, Chang Qing didn't want to buy food, because in his heart, he still felt that the Fang family's bowls and chopsticks were unclean and disgusting.

And buy a horse with a donkey?
The reason is also very simple.

He felt that it would be inelegant for a person as handsome as himself to be paired with a donkey cart. Only by changing to a carriage can he be a little bit worthy of his status.

——Don't ask why you don't just buy horses directly. How can horses be so easy to buy in such a world?Back then, Fang Rui searched the black market for a long time but couldn't find any!
"A donkey, plus ten taels of silver, for a horse, is probably the market price, but where is this, tell me the market price?" ! '

'Besides, am I short of money?Talk to me about money?hehe! '

Fang Rui rolled his eyes secretly: "No change!"

"You...if in the past..."

Chang Qing didn't expect Fang Rui to be so ignorant.

He is a son of a wealthy family, he came here in person, discussed with Fang Rui with nice words, and even generously offered monetary compensation, shouldn't he be grateful to the other party, and give it with both hands free of money?How dare you refuse?
It just doesn't make sense!

"What about the past? Otherwise, let your Wang Bo come and fight me?" Fang Rui showed a hint of amusement on his face.

He just wanted to exercise his muscles and bones, and show his authority by the way.

On the bright side, the identity of an entry-level martial artist is still not enough. It is quite appropriate to show a level seven or eight level and show the talent of a 'normal genius'.

But this thing can't be sold and boasted. It's better to find a stepping stone, such as: that Uncle Wang.

"Hmph, vulgar!"

Chang Qing snorted, swung his sleeves, but turned and left.

This made Fang Rui stunned: "No, shouldn't I call my parents?"How could you go straight away? '

However, after thinking about it later, he figured it out: this Chang Qing, with a temperament like an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, willful, self-willed, and good-faced, because of this, he doesn't want to 'call his parents about something'.

Wait for Chang Qing to leave.

Fang Xueshi asked worriedly: "Brother Rui, you rejected this person, are you okay?"

The third lady also looked over.

"Mother, third sister, don't worry!"

Fang Rui shook his head: "If something happens, it won't be us!"

……

After lunch, continue on your way.

All afternoon was fine.

……

During the night, the caravan arrived at another planned location and camped there.

Because there is relatively plenty of time at night.

Fang Rui called Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi to take out some bacon and have a good meal in the evening.

But at this moment——

"Ow!"

In the darkness, wolves howled one after another and approached quickly.

Here comes the wolf!
