Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 152 152: Action (10) [Please vote]

"What's going on, haven't you dealt with it yet?"

It took a long time for the subordinate officials.

Captain Yang's limited patience was exhausted. The horseshoe stepped on the puddle, splashing mud-colored water. He stepped forward on his horse, wearing a ferocious beast's head armor, and looked down at the hunched old man, putting great pressure on the latter, making his shoulders tremble with fear.

"Are these two?"

The official answered truthfully.

Captain Yang glanced at the old man whose face was full of vicissitudes of life and the shriveled and thin shepherd boy. The grandfather and grandson have sunburn scars on their faces from years of exposure to the sun due to hard work, and frostbite on their fingers. The old man wore a broken hat with missing corners, and the shepherd boy wore a large old raincoat.

Looking at it horizontally and vertically, they were ordinary people who couldn't be more ordinary in this world, not the thief he was worried about at all. Yang Duwei relaxed his tense nerves a little, but the anger in his heart had not been completely dissipated.

"You two are not home at this hour. Why are you running around in the mountains?"

The old man moved his lips, and said awkwardly and unjustly: "Master Bing clearly knows that I won't go home unless I wait, it's really..."

He looked at the direction Captain Yang and the others were coming from. He hesitated to speak, but hesitated to speak. Although he did not speak, his cloudy eyes had already fully explained the vicissitudes of life and embarrassment. Captain Yang was furious and snorted: "Are you accusing us of blocking your way, old man?"

The old man said sincerely and fearfully, "Don't dare."

He was terrified by Yang Duwei's words.

The shepherd boy on the back of the cow bit his lower lip, lowered his head and hunched his shoulders, looking pitiful and helpless. Captain Yang did not want to embarrass an old and weak grandfather and grandson in front of so many people. He pointed to the roadside with the hand holding the whip: "You go over there, don't delay me while I'm waiting for business."

Hearing this, the old man felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He nodded and bowed his head and thanked Captain Yang repeatedly, not forgetting to say complimentary and auspicious words.

Probably feeling that he hadn't said enough, he tugged on his grandson's torn trouser legs, indicating that his grandson was also grateful to Captain Yang for his greatness.

Ai Ai, a shepherd boy, couldn't finish half a sentence.

Yang Duwei secretly said that he was unlucky, but he still stuttered.

"Okay, okay, get out of here!"

The old man nodded while struggling to drag the disobedient old cow to the side of the road and out of the way. The tax queue continued to crawl like a snail, and the old cow also carried the shepherd boy, and slowly moved forward under the influence of the old man, until——

"Old man, wait!"

Zhai Le smiled and stepped forward to stop the old man.

The old man's ears didn't seem to be very good. He took a moment to come to his senses and raised his hands to him: "Hello, Master Bing, what are your orders?"

Zhai Le asked: "Is there a jujube vendor in my husband's house?"

The old man was dumb, and although he was very puzzled, he still replied respectfully: "There is no jujube sold at home, but there are two trees planted behind the house, one is an orange tree, and the other is still an orange tree. If Lord Bing doesn't mind, and Don't go here, go and bring it to you."

Zhai Le didn't call the old man to eat oranges. But the old man's enthusiasm made him a little embarrassed.

"Give it to your grandson."

The old man flattered Zhai Le, looked at his grandson, and sighed: "He can eat two, we people are not worthy. If Lord Bing wants to eat, he will send the rest to him. There are also a lot of oranges at home. The peel is dry, so soak the orange peel in some water and drink it, it’s quite delicious.”

Seeing that the old man was very serious, Zhai Le hurriedly stopped him.

The old man looked at Zhai Le suspiciously, like Monk Zhang Er was puzzled, and said: "Master Bing didn't stop me to eat oranges... but to eat dates? But there is no jujube tree in the house, alas—how about you Going forward, maybe someone planted jujube trees."

Zhai Le: "..."

Looking at this scene, Zhai Huan couldn't help but smile.

Zhai Le was thin-skinned. Hearing the laughter, his whole face turned red with embarrassment, and he said angrily and angrily: "Brother, don't laugh!"

Zhai Huan was very insincere: "Yes, yes, if you don't smile, don't smile."

Zhai Le saw that he really didn't smile, so he turned around and asked the old man again.

"Then does the old man make wine at home?"

As a loyal fan of "Water Margin", it is such a rare experience for the novel to be translated into reality. The tax banker was targeting the birthday card. Yang Duwei had the same surname as the heroic green-faced beast Yang Zhi. The birthday card was robbed in Huangnigang, and they were now on a similar mountain road.

At this moment, two grandparents, one old and one young, came to meet them.

It's not that Zhai Le suspected that the grandfather and grandson were gangsters in disguise. If they were really disguised, how could his cousin not see it?

He just wants to gather all the elements of the idol.

As long as the old man's family has a business selling dates and wine, he only needs one of them and he is satisfied. But no one understood his little thoughts, and his brother even laughed at him. The old man looked at the young man who was handsome, well-dressed but mentally ill, and said slowly: "There is no wine sold at home, but my son loves wine when he is here, and he can drink three jars at a time."

Zhai Le pursed his lips in regret.

The old man asked again: "Does Master Bing have any other instructions?"

Zhai Le covered up his disappointment and warned gently: "It's gone, I'll go ahead. The mountain road is slippery, so pay attention to safety."

The old man thanked: "Thank you Bingye for your concern."

After saying that, he took Lao Niu and continued on the road. He didn't dare to get too close to the tax collection team, but he also didn't dare to stray too far from the mountain road for fear that he would get lost when the night got dark. The tax banker's team moved forward, while the grandfather and grandson walked backwards. They walked towards each other, and it took a full quarter of an hour before they separated.

Zhai Huan frowned slightly as he looked at the departing figures of his grandfather and grandson in the distance.

After a while, he borrowed a scout from Captain Yang.

Captain Yang was not very satisfied: "Why?"

Zhai Huan said: "Follow the grandparents."

Captain Yang snorted: "A white-haired old guy and a yellow-haired kid. Are you worried that they are outposts for criminals?"

If you really suspect it's an outpost, just capture and kill him.

Why send scouts to follow and investigate?

Zhai Huan did not say it clearly, but just said in a low voice: "Be careful with the ten thousand year ship. If these two grandsons are really innocent and just appeared by chance, there is no need to disturb them, so as not to ruin the good reputation of the captain. If they have The question is, wouldn’t arresting someone serve as a warning?”

Captain Yang could not defeat these scribes.

They both have pros and cons for a sentence.

Due to the rain, the tax team could not move fast even if they wanted to, so Captain Yang adopted Zhai Huan's suggestion out of caution.

Zhai Le asked his cousin privately: "That pair of grandfather and grandson..."

Zhai Huan knew what he was going to ask and said softly: "I'm not sure if it's them, so I just used the method of scribes to investigate..."

Zhai Le's expression turned pale: "What happened?"

He knew the ways of his cousin, a scribe.

【Eight-day hexagram】

A hexagram can be raised every eight days.

The seemingly unnatural way of being a scribe also has many limitations. For example, it is impossible to specify the object of the hexagram, and only displays the hexagram image, which consumes a lot of literary energy. Due to various restrictions, he usually doesn't use it very much, but he only used it this time out of caution.

He said: "Shui Lei Tun, the beginning is difficult."

Zhai Le swept away the relief on his brows, which was replaced by solemnity: "Tuen Gua, Xia Xia... earthquakes are like thunder, and bumps are like rain. Thunder and rain are coming together, and dangers are everywhere. It's not a good sign..."

1. I’m going to buy some oranges, and you just stand here and don’t move around - the back view (what the father said to his son)

I will only eat two and give the rest to you - Luo Tuo Xiangzi (Grandpa said to his grandson)

You still have two to eat, soak the orange peels in some water and drink it - four generations live under one roof (what the great-grandfather said to his great-grandson)

Tangmei took advantage of Zhai Le, haha.

2. I haven’t studied the I Ching hexagrams and things like mushrooms, so I just scanned them roughly and don’t take them seriously.
