Everyone was anxiously waiting when they saw a luxurious two-horse sedan running towards them. The little Daoist said, "This car came in a hurry, don't come to catch us. "Quickly hide!" The ladies pulled at the little Daoist, panicking as they fled into the courtyard. The abbot saw the car and said, "Don't panic. It was a local taxi. Master Farmer has hired it to help you. " Only then did the girls relax.
When the car came to a halt, everyone was overjoyed when Farmer got out. Farmer said goodbye to the abbot, then said to the girls, "Your feet are broken, and you have difficulty walking. Let's take the carriage. We will be there in less than two days." The girls enjoyed getting on the bus and began to walk during the day.
The abbot of the temple led the crowd and brought the carriage to the right path, waving goodbye. Farmer and the little Daoist also got on the carriage and set off.
The coachman was young and he liked to talk and laugh. He was also very happy to see the girls dressed extravagantly. He chatted with Farmer and said, "I've never had such a fine car before. I'm pulling these rich ladies. "All of you, sit tight. This car is fast." As he spoke, he swung the red tassel whip and urged the horse to gallop.
The coachman then asked, "Master, why do these girls of yours seem like a group of singers? "What are you guys doing?"
Farmer said, "You have good eyes. I'm in the first class. We are going to perform at Mr. Chen's house in Great Elm Village and have a concert. "
The coachman asked, "Why aren't there any gongs and drums?"
Farmin said: "They said that there was no good show in all this, and they asked us to sing a song. That's why I didn't bring any equipment. " The girls were laughing in secret.
On the other hand, they ate horses and slept through the night, and on the second day they entered Guangning's territory. After entering a small village, Farmer said, "The terrain here is flat and the streets are not small. What kind of place is this?"
The coachman said, "This land is called Gouzi. The streets were big, and there was a lot of trading. All kinds of shops were present. I come here a lot. "I know the waiters of the various restaurants."
"How far are we from the elm?" he asked. The coachman said, "About a hundred miles. This is a good ride. If he didn't delay on the way, he would reach there before it got dark. I often go there, too, and I have relatives there. When I got there today, I could still see you guys singing. "
When Fa Ming heard this, he laughed in his heart. The coachman continued, "Is the house you are going to Mr. Chen's house not on the west side of the street? My father-in-law came from the same family as that gentleman and lived on the east side of the street. My name is Chen Jing. She is the niece of that mister. How can that gentleman, full of learning, remember to ask someone to sing a play? "
This is bad," he said. I've got the point. " It didn't make sense what the coachman was thinking. Then he said, "Then mister must have had some bad luck. He had a lady, a very good-looking girl, eighteen or nineteen years old, and she would marry no one. Guess what? A group of bandits came from the village and were taken away. To date, no whereabouts could be found. In order to find a girl, Mr. Chen was willing to spend all his money to send people everywhere. My father-in-law urged me to ask. I know a lot of people in this business. I've also asked around, but no one knows where she is. My sister-in-law, I think, has a child with her.
He would go on. In the car, Miss Chen scolded, "Shut your mouth! "Even if you don't make much money, buy a plug." Opening the tent flap, he stuck his head out and said, "Do you recognize me?"
The driver didn't know why, but he was too scared to look at her. He drew back his neck and whispered, "Your girl is pretty amazing." Farmer and the little Daoist already understood. Miss Chen said, "Jin Zhu, you have made a living by moving from the Tsukiko to the camp. "I wonder how much money we have earned. We should first learn to fart!"
When the driver heard this, he revealed his true identity and dared to turn around to take a look. He immediately exclaimed, "You're Little Mei! Where did he come from? You've made people suffer. Father and mother looked forward to you, and relatives and friends looked everywhere for you. " Miss Chen said, "Didn't Master tell you everything? I went to learn to sing. Now go home and sing. No need to look for me anymore, thank you for looking for me. "
The coachman looked again and again and saw that she had no expression of pain. It's just that her face is covered in oil and her clothes are luxurious, and she seems more beautiful than before. Thus, the coachman was convinced. After a while he asked, "Didn't the bandits take you away? How did you learn to sing plays? "
"It was those beasts who took me away," said Miss Chen, concealing herself. These two Masters saved me again. I learned to sing from him. " The coachman was so happy that he thanked Farmer and the little Taoist.
Farmer did not explain, but said happily, "Your relatives are very happy to meet each other, and Miss is very happy to be back home again, worthy of celebration. Find a big restaurant, eat something, rest for a while before leaving. Sooner or later, he would be there today. If I don't reward you at that time, there will naturally be people to reward you. "
The coachman, Jin Zhu, was very happy and said, "Of course." With a flick of the whip, he drove the car into the best restaurant here, the Thousand Li Incense Chicken Shop.
When the car stopped, the waiters in the store unloaded the car, led the horses and horses, and carried the water. They were all enthusiastically busy. The inn owner also stood at the entrance to welcome them. All the girls got off the carriage, and there were quite a few men and women watching. Seeing that the ladies were all handsome and dressed extravagantly, they all whispered among themselves, guessing that it was the Wang Residence's carriage. Someone recognized the golden pillar and said no. No matter how he guessed, he could not guess that it was a group of victims.
Not long after, the owner's three wives and three older ladies went out to receive them. They brought the nine girls inside to receive them. The owner of the shop also ordered people to clean up the room for resting. Jin Zhu, Farmin, and the little Daoist were invited into the living room by the owner. There is no need to elaborate on this.
As for the three tables of sumptuous wine, they were set. The host and hostess separated to accompany him and entertain him warmly. The dishes were alluring, delicious and varied, filling up the table. In the middle of the roast chicken, the color is pure, soft and tender, delicious. Farmer sat at the head of the table with the little Taoist and the golden pillar, and the owner sat with him.
The little Taoist was very happy for a while, drinking wine and eating roasted chicken at the same time. It really was like smoking and drinking. Discipline was not like words. It turned out that both the boss and Jin Zhu were very adept at persuasion. The little Taoist began to eat.
The boss said: "The wine and meat of the Lord Jiu is the model of Buddhism, the heart does not repair the mouth. "He has understood the truth."
Jin Zhu said, "Who can compare to Kowloon Kong Ming who marries his wife and children and helps the nation? "Food is good for the body, but people have the energy." The little Daoist was a man of reason, and the more he listened, the more reasonable he became. As a result, he broke down and ate meat.
After the meal, the girls were allowed into the clean room by their mistress. The little Taoist and the golden pillar were also ushered into the living room to have tea with their boss.
Farmer has a characteristic, everywhere, no matter busy, must make friends, the environment browsing. He got to know Jin Zhu and the owner, Yu Hualong, and was very happy. He had to go out on the street again. After a few cups of tea, he said, "Drink slowly, I will go to your convenience."
The boss said, "The toilet is right next to the street. High Monk, please do as you wish." When Farmer came out, it was just convenient to go to the toilet. A local taxi arrived. When he was done, Farmer was walking down the street, browsing the streets.
The coachman behind him shouted, "Who wants to use the carriage?! This car is cheap. warm hospitality and thoughtful service. "No matter where you go, you will still know." When Farmer turned to look at him, he saw a whip in his hand. He was in his thirties with a sharp head but little brains. His appearance was somewhat unsightly. The car was parked at the side and he was still greeting business. Looking carefully at the car, although it was not big, it was big enough for four or five people.
"From here to the Great Elm Tree Road is a long way from here, and I still have to bring Miss Lin from Tianjin with me when I get back. Lady Lin's feet were broken and she walked slowly. Why don't you let the little Taoist take Lady Lin and the other two from Kangcheng to Jinzhou and wait for me at the Three Purities Pavilion. When they got there that day, they still had to rest. Tomorrow I will go out from the elm to meet them. If I walk back to Beijing from the Three Purities Pavilion, I'll have to send two more girls home. There are many benefits to this. "
The more he thought about it, the more reasonable it made sense. Thus, he made up his mind and walked up to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, if you take four people to the Three Purities Pavilion, would you be able to get there today?" The coachman said quickly, "Yes. At most, he would just coax the animals a few more times. Master uses a car? This car is cheap. " Farmer agreed to pay the price, so he paid first. The coachman was very pleased with the money and appeared to be particularly attentive to it.
Farmer took the car back to the shop and called the little Taoist, "Go get Lady Lin and the two people from Kangcheng. Wait for me at the Three Purities Pavilion in this car." I will send them to the big elm tree, from which I will meet you tomorrow at the Three Purities Pavilion. Then we'll walk through the wide city and send the two of them home. There were more benefits. The car was hired and the money paid. All you have to do is walk in a car. To the Three Purities Pavilion to claim my name, the abbot there will naturally receive you. "
When the little Daoist heard that they had to split up, he disagreed in his heart and said, "I will listen to Master." As he spoke, he sized up the coachman. "Get them in the car," Farmer urged.
The little Daoist ran to the back and called out to the three people, "Master told us to take the bus to wait for him at the Three Purities Pavilion." The three of them didn't agree. Miss Lin said, "We don't agree to leave Master and go our separate ways. We have to go with him. " The little Daoist then came to tell Farmer, "Master, they don't agree. "You go ahead."
Farmer came up behind them and said, "For the sake of walking fast, I decided to send two more people home. How could you not listen? This is not the Japanese Concession, it is the Nationalist Region, the territory of the Twenty-eighth Division. What are you all afraid of, walking in a car in broad daylight? "
The little Daoist said, "I don't think the driver is a good man. He had a shifty face and a sharp nose, so it was hard for him to not have evil thoughts on the road. Let's withdraw from him and go together. It's not like we're lacking a day's work.
"Be obedient," he advised. You can't judge a person by his appearance. "Don't even try to be childish." The carriage driver became anxious and also walked over, saying, "The ladies can relax. Walking in broad daylight is not a business trip. I guarantee your safety. " The girls looked at him and turned away.
Lady Lin secretly said, "Look at her appearance, how can I not like her? "He's definitely not a good person." Fa Ming tried to persuade them again, but they all agreed against his wishes. The nine girls could only bear with their tears as they bid farewell to each other. Afterwards, the little Daoist left with the three girls in the carriage. Farmin and the six girls, riding in the carriage with the golden pillars, ran off in the direction of the big elm.
As for the little cultivator's car, once it got out of the ditch and onto the road, it would first walk steadily and quickly. When they reached a fork in the road, the road was narrow and uneven. The car jolted violently. The little Daoist and the three girls felt their stomachs hurt. The little Daoist pointed at the carriage driver and said, "You really don't know how to drive! He didn't know how to find the way either! Torturing us with evil. You said that the road is easy to walk on, what kind of road is that! "
The coachman said, "Don't be angry, Taoist. Just be patient for a while and the road will be easier." After a long walk, the road had not improved. The grass by the roadside was waist-high, making it even more desolate.
The little Daoist reprimanded him, "You are a person who doesn't cause anyone to believe your words. All of you are lying to me! He had walked so far, why was it so hard to leave? You're so bad! If you dare to have any bad intentions, I will tell you the truth: we are all skilled in martial arts, so it will not be difficult for us to beat you. "
Then he took out his sword and said: "What do you think this is? This master will forgive you, but it will not forgive you! "
The three girls were worried that they would blow the matter up and tried to persuade him again and again, "Dao brother, don't be angry. Deal with him and leave. Perhaps we might be able to leave after a while." He then ordered the coachman, "Slow down. We can't take it anymore. "
