Legend of Shi’En - C65
“I’m hungry, I’m so hungry. I’m going to starve to death. Shifu, hurry up and think of something. Aiyo, I’m so hungry.”
Zhu Xiaochang had been constantly attacking Shi En’s ears from the beginning. There was still an hour and a half before he could board the ship, while the four people in the waiting room were starving.
“It’s all because you lost your money bags, now you can only wait to board the ship and eat their free food.”
Shi En clutched his stomach, and ungracefully lied down on his seat.
What, you’re blaming Xiao Shangzi now, hmph, you owe me a hundred silver, in another second it will not be this price anymore, hmph, if you dare yell at me, quickly return the money to me, I’m going to eat dinner.
“Damn, when did I owe you so much money?”
An hour ago you borrowed one or two books from Xiao Shangzi, the rest are interest. Hmph, return the money to me.
Seeing the two of them bickering again, Shang Qian quickly stood up to be the mediator. Furthermore, the one who caused everyone to fall into such a predicament was himself, he too felt very guilty. Shu Xiaoxiao realised Shang Qian’s situation, and comforted him a little, then shook his head and laughed bitterly, then went to the counter to complete the procedures for boarding the ship.
Shi En and Zhu Xiaochang no longer argued about returning the money. Since the two of them had nothing to spend, there was no point in continuing to fight.
Suddenly, Shi En saw the people walking around, he had a question in his heart, so he asked Shang Qian: “I say, White-haired Boy, why didn’t you bring Li Tianwang here on the flying ship? This way will save you a lot of trouble, so you don’t have to travel all the way through the mountains. ”
Shang Qian rested his chin on his hands and said softly: “Brother Shi En, taking a flying ship is actually not an easy task, from the moment you stepped into the ship’s field, every single one of our actions were being monitored by this place, the moment they realized that we were doing something strange, they would summon their officials and the guards here to capture us, thus they are all from a clean background, and have status.”
Shi En thought to himself, no wonder, if Li Tianwang had entered, he would have been caught red-handed.
As for the rest of them, their statuses were somewhere between black and white, and although their business might not be glorious, the Great Ming Dynasty Realm had rules for their industry, so the four of them could board the ship.
Shu Xiaoxiao noticed that her eyes were averted, as if she was trying to escape from his and the others’ sight.
The three of them thought it was strange. No matter what Shu Xiaoxiao encountered along the way, he always had a confident look on his face.
Shi En scratched his back and asked: “What’s wrong? What happened? ”
Shu Xiaoxiao was a little unnatural, she sighed, as though she had made up her mind, she suddenly bent down and apologized to the three of them: “I’m really sorry, I bought the wrong date when I bought the tickets, the flying ship will only arrive tomorrow afternoon, so, we might be living on the streets tonight.”
“Ah, little miss, how could you be so foolish …”
Before Zhu Xiaochang could finish his sentence, Shang Qian had already covered her mouth to stop her. Suddenly, she saw Shang Qian pointing his chin towards Shi En, and she suddenly remembered that while Shi En was unconscious, Shu Xiaoxiao’s actions had become abnormal, or perhaps he made a mistake at that time.
However, the main culprit, Shi En, sat on the seat limply and said powerlessly: “It’s better to save some energy to starve.”
He turned his head to find that Zhu Xiaochang was glaring at him, and thought that it was strange, did he provoke her, and not buy the wrong ticket, he asked Shang Qian, “White-haired Boy, do you have any friends here who can stay for the night with them, or maybe borrow some money for emergencies?”
Shang Qian shook his head and said: “I don’t usually like to make friends, so …”
He turned to ask Shu Xiaoxiao, who shook his head.
Shi En then asked Zhu Xiaochang: “What about you, do you have relatives of princes? “Let’s borrow one or two hundred silver taels for emergencies.”
Zhu Xiaochang immediately let out a breath of relief: “No, no, I did have a relative in the Jing Jiang Manor earlier, but he had been stripped of his status.”
That’s not it, that’s not it either. Could it be that the four of them will really be living on the streets tonight? Looking at the snow falling from the sky, Shi En’s heart turned cold.
Suddenly, Shun En caught sight of a familiar figure. That person had a tall nose, thin lips, and a pair of beautiful eyes without any impurities. However, he was not wearing his fish clothes and had changed into a white robe. He had a refined appearance and an elegant temperament. He did not look like he did in the past when he was under the control of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
This was really an old acquaintance!
Shi En faced Shu Xiaoxiao and the others and said arrogantly: “Hehe, at the critical moment, I still have to rely on you, Young Master Shi En. Just wait here, I’ll treat all of you to hot food and a warm inn later, hehe.”
He took a step forward and quickly ran in front of the man, panting as he greeted, “Long time no see, uh, do you still remember me? We’ve seen it before, when Yingtian Fu capture White Lotus Religion followers. ” Shi En suddenly remembered that something had happened. The two of them did not even have the time to introduce themselves, and he did not even know the other party’s name.
He saw Shi En in a daze, looked left and right, slapped his forehead and said: “Oh, such a coincidence, I remember now, aren’t you the expert that knocked out my father with a single palm, ha-ha, are you trying to surrender?”
“…”
Shi En was speechless, thinking to himself, when did I knock the old man out? He was scared by the butler driver, you can’t wrongly accuse a good person.
“Haha, just joking, look how nervous you are, my old man even specially sent people out to find you, it’s just that we don’t know your surname, we just knew that you were going to that ‘Bu Gan House’ and sent people out to receive news that you were going to travel. I didn’t expect me to bump into you, right, I still don’t know your name.”
“My name is Shi En, what about you?”
“My name is Xu Zengshou, you can just call me Shou Tou.”
Shi En rubbed his hands, and shamelessly asked Shou Tou: “Shou Tou, do you have silver taels on you?”
Shou Tou took out his heavy purse and said: “Yes, what’s the matter?”
Shi En continued to shamelessly say, “Then, can you lend me a few taels? I’ll return it to you when I arrive at Yingtian Fu. Shou Tou raised his hand to stop Shi En from continuing. He put the money pouch back and asked: “What did you ask me just now?”
“Can you lend me a few taels? “I’m here …”
“It’s not that. It’s not that.” It’s not that.
“Do you have silver taels on you?”
“Oh, no.”
“…”
Shi En was speechless, and said with a bitter face: “Shou Tou, I really have something urgent to do, I won’t hide it from you, my friend’s purse has been ripped off by a pickpocket, we don’t have any money, and don’t even have a relationship with anyone here, I only borrowed it from you because there’s no way out, if you don’t help me, I think we can only sleep out on this snowy night.”
Shou Tou rested his chin on his hand and thought hard for a while, “No, I still can’t lend it to you. I have something I need to take care of, so I can’t lend it to you or spend it randomly.”
Hearing him say that, Shi En did not know what to say, after all the two of them were merely acquaintances, and the other party still had matters to attend to, so he did not dare disturb him, and turned to return to Shu Xiaoxiao and the rest’s side.
Shi En dropped his head onto Shu Xiaoxiao’s shoulder, causing Shu Xiaoxiao’s face to immediately flush red. She noticed that Shang Qian and Zhu Xiaochang were looking at the two of them with expressions of anger, and immediately wanted to push Shi En away, but she heard Shi En say with grievance: “I’m sorry, I failed, it’s so shameful. I thought I could borrow money to treat you guys to a hot meal, and sleep on a warm bed. Sigh, my heart is really tired.”
Hearing that, Shu Xiaoxiao immediately retracted all of his strength from pushing Shi En’s hand, and gently patted Shi En’s back, and comforted him in a low voice: “It’s fine, I will think of a way to settle this matter.”
After Zhu Xiaochang heard what Shi En said, he could not help but say with arrogance: “Tsk, who asked you to borrow money. Do you think that everyone in the world is as easy to talk to as you are, who can casually lend you money?
Shang Qian felt guilty at the side, he wanted to comfort Shi En a little, but he realized that someone was walking towards them.
“Um, Shi En, I don’t have a way to borrow your money, how about I bring you to a good place, maybe there, you guys can find a solution to the problem, let’s go.” Shou Tou put a hand on Shi En’s shoulder and pulled him out of the waiting room, “You guys should also go together. Xiaochang. ”
When Zhu Xiaochang saw Shou Tou, he immediately punched him in the chest, “Shou Tou, why is it you, still alive?”
When Shou Tou heard him say this, Shou Tou was not angry, but he still maintained his smiley face, “I heard that your little girl escaped the marriage. My sister and her husband have been looking for you everywhere, do you think I should notify my sister?”
When Zhu Xiaochang heard this, his expression immediately became awkward. Especially when she saw Shou Tou take out a familiar phone from his pocket, she panicked: “Shou Tou, what are you doing?
Shou Tou paused for three seconds, and said with a sincere tone: “I used three seconds just now to think it over and over again. You’re right, I have always acted in a simple and crude manner, call my brother-in-law your King Father.”
Zhu Xiaochang hurriedly grabbed onto the hand he was about to press down on, “Why don’t you stop thinking about it, just pretend you didn’t see me before, if you do something too crude, you’ll go berserk.”
Shou Tou shook his head, “Sigh, this kind of behavior is like chasing a girl, it’s the way to go. Every time I look at my phone, I feel like my sister is calling me, asking me to talk to her on the phone.”
Zhu Xiaochang hurriedly covered the phone’s button, and said anxiously: “This is a demon, you can’t be tempted, Shou Tou.”
Shou Tou slapped her hand away in displeasure, and said with a determined tone: “But I already knew what I was going to say.”
Just as Shou Tou was about to press the call button, Zhu Xiaochang took out her phone and smashed it onto the ground. The parts of the phone were relatively weak, they broke the moment they hit the ground.
Zhu Xiaochang clapped his hands and wiped his sweat, then said to Shou Tou haughtily: “This time, everything is quiet and quiet. Hmph, death Shou Tou, let’s see how you will notify my King Father.”
However, Shou Tou did not care about the phone, but smiled: “Aiya, this phone is not cheap, and it’s even the latest version of Black Phoenix Pear, I can’t afford such a small salary.”
Hearing his words, Zhu Xiaochang panicked. She quickly reached into her pocket and her phone disappeared.
“You, you, this phone, is …”
Seeing Shou Tou nod his head, Zhu Xiaochang wanted to cry, but no tears came out. She was actually tricked by Shou Tou, and had smashed her own beloved phone.
