20. Beating the satyr

Twenty, beat up pervert

On the third day after Zhou Xuan and his party left Shezhou, news came from Xuanzhou that Zhou Xuanzhi, a salt merchant in Jinling, and his female family members, took over the leader of the Xuanzhou Poetry Association and Deputy Kui. He also said that Hu Yang, the son of Hu Yan, the deputy envoy of Ningguo Army, fought against the Xuanzhou courtesan, and was beaten by his father and apologized to Zhou Xuanzhi. Is a salt merchant so capable?

So there were many discussions, some speculations that Zhou Xuanzhi was the son of Lin Dupu of Fenghua Army, some speculation that Zhou Xuanzhi was the crown prince who visited in private, and finally speculated that he was a new nobleman in the court, a Grand Secretary of Jixian Palace, and a Marquis of Xinzhou.

Zeng Daqian naturally heard these rumors and was overjoyed. Zhou Xuanzhi turned out to be Zhou Xuan, the most elegant minister of the Tang Dynasty. He became rich and rich. Zeng Daqian immediately promoted the Fuqiu tea recommended by Zhou Xuan at the tea party. The slogan was - drink Fuqiu tea with the Hou of Xinzhou and be a worry-free and carefree immortal in the world!

Fuqiu Tea was the second-class Rongcheng Tea, but now it was fryed by Zeng Daqian to two taels of silver per pound. I think it was only three coins per pound at the beginning!

At this time, Zhou Xuan and his party, Che Zi and Ma Xiaoxiao, had already crossed Wujiang. They had rested in Wuyuan County for a day and bought several dragon-tail inkstones. They arrived at Yushan County under Xinzhou at noon on April 28, and after lunch at the inn, they set off for Shangrao County, where the Xinzhou Prefecture, which was located forty miles away.

I feel timid in my hometown. Zhou Xuan is from Guangfeng County, Shangrao City. He is in the Tang Dynasty and is called Yongfeng Town, Shangrao County, Xinzhou. Zhou Xuan is considering whether to upgrade Yongfeng Town to a county?

What surprised Zhou Xuan was that the Shangrao accent, a thousand years ago, was not much different from that in a thousand years later. Wu language sounded very friendly. Zhou Xuan tried to greet the farmer who was farming on the roadside farmland in Guangfeng accent. The farmer asked happily: "Are the distinguished guest from Xinzhou? Where did he come from?"

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "The ancestral home is Yongfeng Town, Xinzhou, and I come to worship my ancestors from Jinling."

Lai Fu came over and asked, "Son-in-law, will you distribute the money?"

Along the way, Lai Fu heard Zhou Xuan say many times that he wanted to benefit his hometown and let the fellow villagers in his hometown live a good life. There were more than 12,000 taels of silver in the carriage. Lai Fu thought that Zhou Xuan would pay the villagers, so he asked this question.

Zhou Xuan laughed and said to himself: "I am not Zhao Benshan, so I will pay for people when I go back to my hometown! I will sincerely do some good deeds for the villagers, rather than doing some small favors." He bowed to the farmer and smiled.

That night, Zhou Xuan rushed to Shangrao County. He did not want to deal with the local government for the time being, and still did not live in a hotel. He took the Lin sisters and the others to stay in the hotel. He was so excited at night that he didn't want to sleep. Although things changed, he had returned to his hometown after all. He could go to Yongfeng Town to have a look tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan suddenly felt a little sad. No matter how good he was in Tang State or how he returned home in glory, his parents and brothers, who had been around for thousands of years, didn’t know that they couldn’t do anything for the person they were closest to, it’s a pity!

Fairy Jingyi saw that Zhou Xuan was feeling a little depressed. Knowing that he had remembered the sad things about the country and the family's destruction, he said, "Brother Xuan, I want to see the night view of Shangrao County, please accompany me to have a walk."

Zhou Xuan said: "Okay, I'm just about to go out for a walk."

Zhou Xuan, the Lin sisters, and the Sanchi couple left the inn and walked towards Dongxin. Zhou Xuan did not recognize the road at all. It was strange that he still recognized the road after a thousand years. The store owner said that the Xinjiang River was half a mile east, and he wanted to go to the banks of Xinjiang River to express the secret feelings of missing the past. No, it was not about the past, but about the future.

After Xiahou Liusu came out after taking a bath, she heard that Zhou Xuan had gone out, so she hurriedly came out to look for him with her maid Yuer. Along the way, Zhou Xuan had been keeping away from her, and she could not make up her mind to throw herself into her arms. Now she has arrived in Xinzhou, and from Xinzhou to Chiling south is Jianzhou. If she doesn't hurry up and figure out Li Yu's decree, it will be too late. That day she vaguely heard Zhou Xuan and Judge Fan talk about the two former places of Fujian Kingdom, "Jianzhou, Tingzhou". Li Yu's secret decree is definitely related to these two states. Although Zhou Xuanmingli said that he went to Jiangzhou after worshiping his ancestors in Xinzhou, it is hard to say whether it is true or not.

Xiahou Liusu learned from the shop that Zhou Xuan was heading east, so he took the little maid Yuer to the east. Xinzhou was obviously not as prosperous as Xuanzhou. Shezhou was prosperous, and pedestrians were not very well dressed, and poor people were often begging on the corners of the roadside.

The master and maid searched for a long time but didn't see Zhou Xuan. A young man with a few gangs came towards him. The servants swayed and saw Xiahou Liusu's slender and beautiful appearance, so they deliberately blocked the middle of the road and laughed and refused to let them go.

Xiahou Liusu held Yu'er's hand and let him go, but the young master of red robe stopped and took the lantern from his servant behind him and reached over Xiahou Liusu's head to take care of him. Xiahou Liusu had a sewing fan in his hand, so he quickly covered his face.

The rich young man with red robe had already seen the woman's beautiful melon-shaped face, which was as crystal clear as a jade carving, not to mention her figure, narrow-sleeved spring shirt, eight Hunan skirts, and charming body-

The little maid Yuer stood up and scolded, "What are you going to do? Get out of here quickly, my lady is not easy to mess with!"

Yu'er was telling the truth. Of course, Xiahou Liusu was not easy to mess with, but the rich young man in red robe disagreed and smiled unrestrainedly: "It is a fate to meet a narrow road. Which lady is it? Did she have ever married? The lady and her maid walk at night, was she elopement?"

Xiahou Liusu didn't want to cause trouble and whispered: "Yu'er, let's go back first, Mr. Zhou may not be here."

The master and maid turned back.

The young man with red robe strides from behind and blocks the road again, laughs and says, "The young man is Mr. Zou, his surname is Gong, his name is Junrui. It turns out that the young man is looking for a young man. Haha, the young man is really good at speaking. Speaking of me, Mr. Zou, he is really well-known to everyone in Shangrao County. He is known as a righteous hero, spends money like earth, looks better than Pan An, and is better than Zhou Xuan. The handsome young man is just below."

Xiahou Liusu and Yuer were both stunned and asked, "Zhou Xuan? Which Zhou Xuan?"

The rich young man with red robe waved the folding fan and said, "I am not Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan is the Marquis of Xinzhou. He is said to be a talented man, but his talent is a little worse than that of a young student. The lady followed me to have a long talk all night and knew that what the young student said was true and he was really talented."

Xiahou Liusu said to Yu'er: "Zhou—He is quite famous, and someone here knows him."

A vulgar young man said, "Of course my young master is famous, don't you say it? Everyone in Shangrao County knows. Whose female family is? My young master loves the young lady very much and intends to come to propose marriage." As he said that, he said a whisper to the rich young master in the red robe, as if he was very clever.

Seeing that someone was going to propose marriage, Yu'er couldn't speak up and said, "We are passing by, not from Xinzhou, so we will be exempted from proposing marriage. Let's go out of the way!"

When the young master Zhuba was not a local, he felt at ease. He was worried that it was a female relative of a wealthy family, so he didn't dare to go too far. Then he showed his expression and smiled and said, "You can get married if you are not a local person. Is there a beauty coming from afar, wouldn't it be fun?" He reached out and grabbed Xiahou Liusu's wrist.

Xiahou Liusu dodged and scolded: "Don't force me!"

Yu'er said angrily: "You are seeking death if you dare to touch my lady!"

The rich young master in red robe smiled and said, "It's all I wish to die on the lady." He pushed the little maid Yu'er away and opened his arms to hug Xiahou Liusu.

Xiahou Liusu flashed over again. She really didn't want to cause trouble. If she had done this, Zhou Xuan would probably know about her martial arts. That would be a big problem.

The little maid Yu'er didn't know martial arts and was hugged by the vulgar gang. She covered her mouth with one hand and refused to let her scream. She also directed two other servants to come forward to help the young master Zhu's robes to catch Xiahou Liusu. The vulgar gang said, "Young master, they are from other places, so don't worry about any future problems. You drag them to the abandoned garden there and play with them quickly. Afterwards, they won't dare to speak out. The past few times - hehe, aren't they all okay!"

The rich young man in red robe smiled and said, "This is reasonable." He surrounded two servants on three sides and forced Xiahou Liusu to a dead corner.

A red shadow suddenly floated in front of his eyes. Before the young master could see clearly what it was, he sounded like a "bang", and his chest seemed to be hit by an iron hammer. His body fell backwards, and blood gushed out of his mouth.

Two "pa" sounds, two servants fell to the ground.

The red shadow fell, and Xiahou Liusu pressed her hands above her knees, afraid that the skirt would fly and reveal her bottom when she kicked her legs. She took a step to the vulgar gangster who was holding the fish hostage.

He was frightened and shocked. He never expected that this woman could beat him so hard. He said with a stern and timid voice: "Don't come over, or I'll strangle her to death." As he said that, he pinched Yu'er's throat with one hand. Before he could use his strength, he was punched in the face. He could hear the sound of a broken nose bone. Then he slashed his neck with another hand knife and collapsed to the ground.

There was still a gang next to him, and he was so scared that he stepped back, took a few steps, turned around and ran away.

Xiahou Liusu looked at the four guys who were falling to the ground and moaning, rubbed his hands gently, and said to Yuer: "Let's go back quickly, don't let people see it."

Yu'er kicked the vulgar gangster and scolded: "This person is the most hateful. Miss, come and give him a kick, I won't hurt him."

Xiahou Liusu stepped on it, and the despicable gangster screamed, and the shin of the left calf was broken, and she rolled in with her legs in pain.

Xiahou Liusu has a character of not doing anything and keeps going. She kicked the left legs of the red-robed and the two servants, and then took Yu'er's hand and ran back to the inn.

The store owner asked: "What's wrong with the lady? Have you met a bad guy?"

Xiahou Liusu said: "No, it's too dark. I ran back quickly if I didn't find my son."

The shop owner said: "It's better to come back early, the world is not peaceful!"

Xiahou Liusu asked: "Why is it not peaceful?"

The shop owner sighed, but refused to say anything.

The master and maids of Xiahou Liusu returned to the room. After a while, they heard that Zhou Xuan and Lin's sister were back. Xiahou Liusu originally wanted to go to Zhou Xuan's room to bed tonight, but after the incident just now, she felt a little uneasy, afraid that those people would come to the door. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong all night and didn't hear anyone asking for trouble, so naturally she didn't serve the bed.

Xiahou Liusu was very upset. She didn't expect it to be so difficult to throw herself into her arms. She was like an ugly girl who couldn't get married!

Zhou Xuan got up before dawn and practiced a five-animal show.

Three crazy people, Lin Ning also got up and stood on the client's steps to watch Zhou Xuanlian.

Zhou Xuan clasped his fists and said, "I will practice another set of boxing skills, please give me advice." After that, "Huohuohuo" practiced a set of "Five Ancestors' Fist".

When Xiahou Liusu heard Zhou Xuan kicking and punching in the yard, she didn't care about wearing a skirt. She walked quickly to the window with her embroidered shoes. Seeing that Zhou Xuan was so scheming and simple and powerful, she couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth, "I can't tell that he can do something, it can be said that he can be both literary and martial, but this martial arts is not enough for me to fight in two ways."

Zhou Xuan finished practicing the "Five Ancestors' Fist" and asked: "The three-wife couple will give you some advice."

Lin Ning smiled and said, "The master is very good at practicing. If you fight two, there is no problem with three strong men."

Sanchi said mercilessly, "The master is still flirting with flirting. If you really have to encounter someone you have practiced, you will not be able to beat him."

Zhou Xuan was so vigorous, but was said to be a fancy move. He was a little unhappy: "San, you know that you would tell me two tricks but you refused."

Sanchi said: "My master cannot learn this kung fu-fi—"

Zhou Xuan interrupted: "What can't be learned? The fourth brother used to say that you were a boy, but I really can't learn it, but you are not a boy now, right?"

Lin Ning turned back to the room, and the old man with Sanchi blushed and argued: "The master doesn't know anything, and I can't explain this clearly for a while. Should I practice it or let the fourth brother teach you."

Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, "Third brother, you are a waste. I have never seen you practice martial arts after traveling with you for so many days."

Sanchi said: "I didn't see it when I was practicing."

Zhou Xuanxin said, "I didn't see it, but I heard it. You and Lin Ning were very moved last night. You were so happy. I took my wife to travel, and the beauties around me were all watching and couldn't eat it."

Judge Fan came from the inn early in the morning and asked Zhou Xuan where he was today? Zhou Xuan said: "I really returned to my hometown today. Shangrao County is not my hometown. Lord Fan please stay in the county town without having to worry about it."

Judge Fan said: "The lower officials naturally have to follow the young master and the young lady, so let General Qi stay in the inn."

After breakfast, Zhou Xuan and his party set off for Yongfeng Town. Judge Fan called eight soldiers to accompany him to listen.

When he arrived at the border of Chongshan Township, Zhou Xuan knew that this place was called Yangkou Town a thousand years later. Its people were brave and was a martial arts town. It produced fireworks and firecrackers. There was also a more famous temple called "Boshan Nengren Temple". Xin Qiji, a hundred years later, would leave behind poems here and must visit it.

But I saw a few large jars outside the gate of "Boshan Temple". There were monks serving porridge, and there were endless villagers receiving porridge.
