The master and servant followed Princess Zhuoya westward with their heads down Luoyang all the way to the west is the capital, between the two big cities there is no more famous city, but there are some small towns.
After walking for two hours, the three men finally stopped their lead-filled legs, for they were already hungry Hou Sanyi sat heavily on a stone pier, and said weakly, "Uncle, let's rest for a while."
Tang Song felt that his stomach was empty, and what was even more terrifying was that there was an unstoppable force that kept draining his disappearing strength.
"Okay, then rest for a while Anyway, there is a town in front of us, maybe we can still ask for a bowl of water to drink" Tang Song looked at the town in the distance where the smoke was rising, and agreed to Hou San's request.
Princess Zhuoya was also very tired and hungry, but she stood aside and gritted her teeth and insisted on not complaining, because Hou San had said, "Our money is used to redeem you" "Hou San, how long will it be before we are from the capital" Seeing Princess Zhuoya's somewhat embarrassed and stubborn face, Tang Song hurriedly diverted the topic.
Hou San looked up at the west, and there was uncertainty in his tone, "Uncle, if you want to go all the way, I estimate that you will enter the suburbs of the capital by this time tomorrow."
"Oh, let's go into town after a while," Tang Song said.
Half an hour later, the three of Tang and Song entered this town called Qingfeng Town.
The town occupies a lot of land, and the main street runs through the town, and there are various shops on both sides of the street, which are dazzling and lively.
Behind the shops on Main Street, you can see a few high walls and tall towers for observation from time to time, and it is clear that although Qingfeng Town is not big, there is still no shortage of rich and noble families.
Walking on the streets fluttering with all kinds of colorful guises, Tang Song, who was ringing the lively sound of bargaining in his ears, suddenly felt the down-to-earth breath of life, and the sting brought to him by the experience of crossing and the memories of his previous life had slowly faded People live for a lifetime, the important thing is only the mentality, not the environment, at least in this world, there are people who care about themselves and care about themselves, which is the most important thing.
"Uncle, are we going or not" Hou Sanhou's anxious voice interrupted the contemplative Tang Song.
The ripples in Tang Song's eyes calmed down suddenly, and he met Zhuoya's concerned gaze and asked, "What are you going to go or not going?"
Tang Song's words made Hou San understand that what he had just said was in vain, "Uncle, the first big family in the town added Ding a few days ago, and in order to thank God, an event to send dolls was held today."
"What kind of doll doll" Tang Song asked Hou San curiously.
"Send a doll like" Hou Sanyi wiped the saliva that almost flowed from the corner of his mouth and said, "A doll made of pure gold" "Pure Gold Doll" Tang Song was also shocked, and couldn't help but sigh at this family's generosity.
The more commonly used currencies of the Great Sui Dynasty are copper coins and silver, which are used more and wider, and the rarer gold is often only a storage that only super large households have.
"What kind of activity is it, how can I get a golden doll" Tang Song understood in his heart that it was easy for a generous person to shake his hand and be a golden doll, but it was not so easy to get this golden doll When it came to how to get the golden doll, Hou San was also asked, and he couldn't say why, so Tang Song waved his hand and said arrogantly, "Let's go, take a look" "Okay aunt" Hou San followed Tang Song's footsteps and walked into the distance.
"Uncle, let's sell the golden doll and eat it again" Hou San's fart looked as if the golden doll was already in the bag of Tang and Song.
Tang Song said angrily, "Hou San, let's not say that we don't know how to get the doll yet, even if we know how to get it, you think it's so easy to get it."
Hou San didn't care after being reprimanded, and still said with a smile, "Uncle, it's not that I praise you, just with your ingenuity, the golden doll is not handy."
Tang Song silently received a slap from Hou San, and said very seriously, "Hou San, you little guy is a little bit bad, you have to correct it, do you know?"
Hou San was puzzled, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
Tang Song said, "The worst thing about you is that you always tell the truth" When the second monk Hou Sanzhang was confused, Princess Zhuoya had already burst out laughing, she had never seen a boast and a detour Hou San realized what Tang Song meant, and smiled hehe Approaching the big family, the number of people gradually increased, basically the closer to the ring outside the gate, the denser the crowded, and the allure of the golden doll can be seen.
Ahem, of course, it is not excluded that there are thieves, apprentices and others who take advantage of the opportunity, of course, the victim's reaction after these two types of people succeed is divided into two types: one is unaware that he is missing the money bag, and the other is the flower branch trembling and screaming Jiaojiao.
Princess Zoya is a beautiful woman, and there are so many people who want to rub oil like flies.
In order to take care of Zhuoya, the master and servant of Tang and Song Dynasty struggled, and finally couldn't walk half a foot away from the ring The ring is relatively spacious, supported by four thick timbers at the four corners, and there is a high red flag waving in the wind at the corner of the ring, which is very eye-catching.
Even more striking than the high red flag is a small table in the ring The table is about three feet high, and the table top is covered with a golden red cloth embroidered with Buddha statues, and on the red cloth is a glittering, simple, and lifelike doll statue The doll is finely made, the materials are sufficient, and the size of the doll all shows its value "The Li family is really generous, look at this golden doll, my eyes are about to dizzy" "That's it, I heard that Master Li is old and has a son, so he spent such a big capital" "Since Master Li came to our Qingfeng Town, he has also accumulated virtue and done good, saving people and administering medicine.
No matter who gets the golden doll today, it is also appropriate to pray for the little master."
"Just that's it" Hearing the words of others, Tang Song can also understand that the reputation of the master's family is still good, at least he is a good person.
Nowadays, everyone is most concerned about how to get the golden doll When the hour came, I saw a middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper walking briskly to the center of the ring.
The housekeeper said loudly, "Folks, I am Ma Dezhao, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, and my lord is grateful to the Buddha for the kindness of the little master, and this ring competition is specially held.
"Wow Wow" "Pure Gold Doll" The saliva from the audience flowed into a river Steward Ma smiled kindly, and then said, "Do you want this golden doll?"
"Think" "I'm going crazy" Steward Ma's words caused waves to rise and fall Steward Ma shook his head and said, "It's not so easy to get the golden doll, you have to pass three levels to kill the generals."
"What do you have to pass three levels" "The generals have to fight."
When many well-mannered scholars heard this, they were suddenly embarrassed, and they wrote poems to guess riddles, and did manual work For a while, the scholars were dejected and disappointed However, Steward Ma's next sentence ignited everyone's hope, "This slasher can use force and mouth."
Facing the enthusiastic eyes of the scholars, Steward Ma explained the detailed rules for breaking through The so-called primary selection is that the housekeeper selects the correct answer from all the people in the audience to come to the stage, and a total of ten people are selected to come to the stage, ten people are together, and the primary election is over.
Ten people on the stage next for the second selection, answer the question to get incense, that is, answer a question correctly to get a branch of Buddha incense, after all the questions are answered, the ten people get the most Buddha incense three people enter the final finals As for the final topic, Steward Ma said, "Confidential" Since the rules are indicated, the steward Ma loudly announced, "The primary election has officially begun" Everyone in the audience stared at Steward Ma with blazing eyes, and everyone was excited to try.
The battle is on the verge of breaking out:
