Chapter 68 Money Bags
Chapter 68 Money Bag
In front of the Zhang brothers was a wide road that was two or three times wider than the streets of Lu Town. There were countless shops standing beside the road, and the people on the street were bustling with shouts of hawking and making a lot of lively. It was simply a replica of the streets of Lu Town during the New Year. No wonder the Zhang brothers misunderstood that they had never seen such a formation on weekdays.
Zhang Xiaohu scratched his head and said, "It's already hot, where does the New Year come from?"
Zhang Xiaohua also smiled and said, "Yes, this Pingyang City is really lively. If you don't come and see it, you really don't know."
Although the things in front of you are very fresh, the two of them came out for a few days and knew that they had seen very little before. Many things were looked in their hearts and slowly digested and accepted. They became accustomed to the lively scene. In fact, Zhang Xiaohua himself did not feel that his speed and vision of accepting new things from outside had gradually exceeded the scope of a thirteen-year-old child. Maybe this is maturity.
After all, Zhang Xiaohu is old and has heard others talk about the prosperity of the outside world on weekdays. He had imagined it in his mind before, but it was based on Lu Town. Although what he sees now is bigger than what he expected, it is also quickly acceptable.
The two of them walked around the crowd with curiosity, looking at here from time to time, and seeing where they were a little restrained at first, but they soon discovered that there were many of these people dressed clearly, but there were also many of them dressed simply like them. Everyone's eyes did not stop too much on them, and even the shops in the street shops were invited to them diligently, so they soon relaxed.
But after leaving for a while, the two of them were stunned again. Why?
They were lost and didn't know where to go? It seemed that they had long deviated from the route guided by the chariots and horsemen.
When they got lost, they naturally had to ask for directions, so the two of them thought about who to ask.
At this time, a young man walked past the back, squeezed through the two of them, and said as he walked, "Borrow light and let go."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua turned sideways casually and lets people pass by. However, when the man walked by, he suddenly stretched out his hand, touched Zhang Xiaohu's waist, and suddenly walked over Zhang Xiaohu's small wallet. At this time, Zhang Xiaohu was still watching everywhere and looking for the person asking for directions. Zhang Xiaohua's senses were so sensitive now. Seeing this situation in the corner of his eyes, he quickly took a step forward, blocked the man's face, raised his hand and grabbed the man's wrist holding the wallet, and said sternly: "What are you doing?"
The young man was about the same age as Zhang Xiaohu. Looking at the child in front of him who was shorter than him, and his hand that caught his wrist, he said casually: "What are you not doing."
Zhang Xiaohua asked: "Then why did you hold my second brother's wallet in your hand?"
The young man sneered and said, "How come this has become your purse? It is obviously in my hands, mine."
After saying that, he shook Zhang Xiaohua's hand hard and tried to pull it out. How could Zhang Xiaohua let him do what he wanted? He tried a little harder on his hand. "Ouch, oh," the young man immediately shouted and begged for mercy, "Give me your life, be gentle, be gentle, your wrist will be broken."
Zhang Xiaohu also noticed something abnormal, and snatched his wallet from the man and opened the bag to see if there was any money lost. When Zhang Xiaohua saw that his second brother had the wallet, he naturally let go of his hand. At this moment, a few more people came from behind, passing by Zhang Xiaohu, Zhang Xiaohua and others, and bumped into two people. Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but wonder why these people were so reckless and had something to worry about, but when someone ran over, Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. The person who stole the wallet just now disappeared. The Zhang brothers looked at each other again. It seemed that the person behind and the person who stole the things in front should be in the same group. After checking carefully, fortunately, they did not lose anything, so the two of them didn't care.
But he also felt distrustful to the people here. Even when he asked for directions, he looked for an old lady who looked kind-hearted. After asking for directions, the two brothers walked forward again. Pingyang City was really not very big. They had been walking for an incense stick, but they had not yet reached the east gate. They were not tired. However, it was too hot and crowded. They were already thirsty. When they walked to a corner, they happened to see a shed selling herbal tea on the side of the road. It was a big bowl of thirst-quenching herbal tea. The two were overjoyed and walked over. One of them drank a big bowl of deliciously, and after paying money, they asked carefully. They were about to leave, but suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua grabbed Zhang Xiaohu and pointed to the person in front and whispered: "Second brother, look at the person in front, is it the one who stole our wallet just now?"
Zhang Xiaohu looked carefully, shook his head and said, "I can't see clearly. When I was stealing the wallet just now, I didn't pay attention. I didn't see what the person looked like, so I was taken away by someone."
Zhang Xiaohua said affirmatively: "It should be right, it's him."
Zhang Xiaohu was a little suspicious: "Are you sure? Don't be wronged. Besides, we have no evidence now, so we can't catch him."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Second brother, what are you doing? She is staring at the girl's purse in front of her."
Zhang Xiaohu looked again, but a girl was walking in front of the young man, holding a pot of unknown flowers in his hand, and a small green purse on his waist kept waving as the girl walked. Wasn't the young man's eyes just staring at the purse?
Just as he watched, the young man accelerated his pace, Zhang Xiaohua quickly threw the small bag in his hand to Zhang Xiaohu and said, "Help me take it, second brother, see how I capture the thief."
At this time, the young thief had already run to the girl, reached out and grabbed her hand, took the purse in her hand, and then ran away. The girl also felt it and shouted anxiously: "My purse, you hateful thief."
But, she was holding a flowerpot in her hand, how could she chase after her? She had to stamp her feet and said in her mouth: "Let you take it first, and turn around and let Uncle San clean up you."
In the girl's annoyed, Zhang Xiaohua, who was brave enough to do justice, arrived and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and help you recover it."
After saying that, he followed the little thief's back and ran and shouted, "Catch the little thief who steals things."
When the little thief heard someone shouting, he looked back and found that it was the person who had just caught his wrist. Thinking about the black green on his wrist, he immediately accelerated his pace, trying to get rid of Zhang Xiaohua's pursuit.
In the little thief's thoughts, this little flower is just a little brat. Even though she is strong, she will be faster than an adult and will be able to run away in a short while.
But Zhang Xiaohua was the exception. After chasing for several streets, the thief was already a little helpless. Looking back, Zhang Xiaohua was still chasing, and the distance was getting closer and closer. Looking around, because he ran far away, the brothers who were protecting him did not come. The thief couldn't help feeling guilty. He turned his eyes and raised his hand and threw the purse in his hand towards an alley. Then he ran in the opposite direction. When Zhang Xiaohua chased him here, he had to pick up the purse first. When he came back, the thief had already crawled into the alley and disappeared.
However, Zhang Xiaohua's purpose was to recover her wallet and did not think about catching the person, so she returned the same way.
Fortunately, the one who chased after him was not too far away. Zhang Xiaohua could return according to her memory and see that the little girl was still waiting in place.
After taking the purse handed over by Zhang Xiaohua, the little girl smiled and said, "Thank you."
Looking at the girl with a braid and wearing red and green clothes, Zhang Xiaohua blushed slightly and said quickly: "It's okay, he wanted to steal our things just now, but this man was very cunning and didn't catch him, so he let him run away."
The little girl said, "It's okay, just get the purse back. Thank you, I'll leave first, there are still people waiting for me there."
After saying that, the little girl smiled at Zhang Xiaohua again, turned around and walked eastward.
Zhang Xiaohu also came over at this time, smiling and exaggerating Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, you are so amazing. You can even get your wallet back, but you are still young. If you fight, you are no match. Let me chase you next time."
Zhang Xiaohua took her small bag and said, "It's okay, second brother, I think I'm very awesome now. I've been chasing for so long just now, and I'm not very tired."
Zhang Xiaohu thought his younger brother was bragging, and did not expose it. He also smiled and said, "That's right, Xiaohua has grown up, of course she is very powerful."
The two of them also walked east while talking and laughing, but by chance, they were behind the little girl.
After walking for a while, the little girl turned around and saw that the two of them were walking behind, she stopped. When the two were approaching, she asked, "It seems that we are going on the way. Where are you going?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "We want to go to Piaomiao Villa."
"Piaomiao Villa?" The little girl was stunned, "What are you doing there?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "We want to learn martial arts."
"Learn martial arts? Go to Piaomiao Villa?" The little girl was even more stunned. "Have you heard that Piaomiao Villa has recruited disciples again?"
However, the little girl said again: "This place is still far from Piaomiao Villa. How do you go over? Do you walk over?"
Zhang Xiaohua blushed a little and said, "Yes, we are here for the first time, and I don't know how to leave."
The little girl smiled and said, "Let's do it, I'm just going to go along. You guys come with me. I'll send you there, just to thank you for helping me get my wallet back just now. How about it?"
Zhang Xiaohua said happily: "Okay, then I thank you too."
Sure enough, a carriage was parked on the side of the road not far ahead. There were already many flower pots on the carriage, but there was still free place on the carriage. After the little girl and the Zhang brothers took the carriage, the carriage slowly walked.
