Chapter 95 - The mischief of an evil fox
Chapter 95 The mischief of an evil fox
“Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da...”
Ren Dongteng and Gui Banjiao came here in a gharry, which was smaller than that of Madam Luo. Chan Yi and Huai Hua jumped out of the gharry first to help Madam Luo and others to get over this rough situation. Because they could tell from the situation that He Danggui was in a daze, Childe Feng was wearing a bitter smile with his folding fan hanging with strings of copper cash, and Madam Luo and others were not surprised, but frightened for so many passers-by giving them so much money just now.
Miss Ji handed out all the money, then jogged back from the street with her empty purse. When she saw this, she quickly took down several strings of 1,000 qian, which were hanging upon Madam Luo’s body. The strings of money were too much and too messy, so Miss Ji put them into the empty purse. Then, she took down the money from He Danggui, Mammy Tang, Feng Yang and Guan Bai in order, and put them into her purse, too. Therefore, the purse was full of money again.
Until now, Miss Ji was still confused about this situation and didn’t know that the money was the compensation she handed out before. But she had no time to ask at that moment. She turned her head and called on Chan Yi, then they helped Madam Luo, Third Miss and Mammy Tang getting into the gharry. What a messy street it was! Nobody knew whether the three could bear it or not, given their weak body conditions.
So, in the new gharry, Miss Ji and Mammy Tang quickly exchanged the information to each other. Miss Ji said she handed out money and hoped money could ease the anger. And Mammy Tang said Third Miss saved a boy and got money from his mother and passers-by. Finally, they drew a conclusion that many people who had not been injured got the medical fee and compensation. Now they were touched by Third Miss’s behavior and didn’t want to take this money, so they gave it back. When they praised this, they also sighed Third Miss was lucky not to be hurt after she was trampled by the horse!
Madam Luo was shocked in that accident, so she felt a little dizzy now. However, all the pills that were made by the ‘criminal Taoist nun’ were given to others although they were very useful. So, at this moment, she could only lay down on the soft cushion to take a rest.
At the same time, He Danggui was leaning against the gharry wall. She thought back to the horses flipping out in the two accidents. Apart from the red eyes, there were some little white spots on their tongues when they gasped heavily. She remembered a book recorded the reason that caused this symptom was…
“Hiss-” He Danggui took a deep breath slightly and poked many acupoints to reduce her pain temporarily.
Just now, Miss Ji, who had no idea about what happened just now, helped her into the gharry. Seeing the dirt on her back, Miss Ji was very “kindly” to help her brush the dust off. As a result, He Danggui felt dizzy. Huai Hua, who knew nothing about this, either, saw her cloth was still dirty; therefore, she was also “kindly” to brush the spot heavily. The Zhenqi in He Danggui’s body was so disordered that she almost spat blood. She meditated hundreds of Heart Sutra quickly to control the dangerous situation. When Miss Ji and Huai Hua saw that Third Miss’s cloth was finally clean, they looked at each other and smiled. After all, the Third Miss was too beautiful to wear dirty clothes.
This gharry was not as comfortable and capacious as Madam Luo’s. It was a little crowded with 4 people inside it now. Chan Yi and Huai Hua couldn’t get in, so they stood near the gharry window, waiting for the Miss to solve the problem. In a word, their Miss was very clever, so there was no problem that she couldn’t solve.
Outside the gharry, Gui Banjiao and Ren Dongteng were on their seats to drive. They observed the feelings of the two horses in front of the gharry while they discussed the real reason why the three horses had flipped out.
According to the knowledge of Ren Dongteng in his hometown Fengyang City when he was a child, they drew a conclusion that there was an evil fox in this street. It ate the souls of passing horses and selected the good horses with enough Yangqi. Madam Luo and the First Master Guan’s horses were the best. Especially First Master Guan’s horse, with red mane and white nose. It seemed that it could run 1,000 miles in the daytime and 800 miles at night. It was very pitiful that the horse ended up in this way. That only because the souls of the horses were eaten by the fox, so they flipped out immediately. Compared with the above horses, Third Miss’s were inferior. Since the fox was full, so it let them go.
“Master Gui.” He Danggui whispered through the curtain, “I remember your gharry stopped for a while at the last intersection. What did you stop to do?”
“Oh, at that time…” Gui Banjiao interrupted the discussion with Ren Dongteng and turned to answer, “Because Mammy said that Madam Luo wanted to eat Zongzi sugar and spicy orecchiette snack, so she let me stop. After Mammy went down, she didn’t buy anything when she came back, and then she persuaded Madam Luo that she felt the food outside was insanitary. She told Madam Luo to wait for a while to go back and eat. Madam Luo always listened to Mammy, so we went on.”
He Danggui frowned and thought for a while, then asked, “In the roadside… Were there any wild flowers or weeds? Was there a kind of white flower that smelt fragrant?”
Gui Banjiao recalled, touched his head, then shook his head, “I didn’t notice that. At that time, there were two goats fighting with red eyes. The match was so wonderful that the goats splashed the dust and dug a big hole on the ground. Not only I but also the passers-by stopped to watch.”
On the other side, Feng Yang also returned to his gharry. Then he pulled Ning Yuan’s left hand over instantly and felt his pulse carefully.
Before the accident, because of the serious injury and blood surge caused by bumps, Ning Yuan had already spitted blood repeatedly. In addition to cutting down his channels and suppressing the spread of internal injuries temporarily, Feng Yang had no better way at this moment. Even if he wanted to convey his Zhenqi to Ning Yuan for treatment, he also needed to find a quiet place. If he did that in the gharry as they crossed the street, once the gharry shook violently or some unexpected things happened, both of them would be in danger for being attacked by Zhenqi…
As he thought of this, he heard Feng Yan and Feng Yu shouted, “Bad news! 3 crazy horses are dashing against our gharry. All of us should settle our debt today. Let’s join the trip together on our way to the netherworld, and we’ll still be heroes 18 years later!”
So, Feng Yang rushed out of the gharry. He trod on the roof of the other gharry and got to the rear-wheel. Then he pulled the left and right wheels with his hands. With a Qianjinzhui Movement, he bent his knees and dragged the wheels back in his own way. After a while, he was pulled 2 or 3 zhang away to stop the next movement of the gharry, and the loess ground was dragged out of two terrible deep traces by his feet. After that, when Feng Yan and Feng Yu arguing with the coachman, he noticed immediately that the 3 horses looked unusual, so he used blind nailing to seal the main acupoints on their 4 hoofs and let them calm down in the spot.
“Yuan, your injury… seemed to be suppressed temporarily?” Feng Yang whispered incredibly, “What is going on? Your pulse is even smoother than before, but we hurry on the road all day! How are you feeling now? Isn’t this a momentary recovery of consciousness just before death?”
At this moment, Ning Yuan had taken down the bamboo hat, but still wearing the mask with silk engraving above. His eyes were half-closed with tiredness. He then sighed, “I’m afraid it’s too late after so much time delayed.”
Feng Yang couldn’t get a reply, so he pawed Ning Yuan’s eyelids insistently, listened to his heartbeat on his chest, and then sighed, “A people who recovers consciousness before death… Are they just like normal people? Yuan, do you have any unfulfilled wishes now? You name it! I will try my best to make it come true for you!”
Ning Yuan beat the hand that touched his eyelids and blamed weakly, “Don’t be kidding. Didn’t I tell you that I felt better after taking that woman’s medicine... Ah, Luo’s Family is known as medicine, and it really deserves its reputation. I can get treated in Luo’s Mansion as ‘Feng Yang’s friend’. In this way, I can also escape detection. That’s great… And my injury isn’t getting better now; it is only suppressed by medicine temporarily. The longer I suppress it, the more pain I will suffer. So... Chang Nuo, I can only ask you to disguise yourself as me and go back to Daning this time. I can’t find anyone better except you.”
「Feng Yang」 scratched his head as he heard this, and then he said, “I can’t get away from either side. Although I don’t need to deal with things in Caobang Organization every day, I need to go home for a few days occasionally. Yuan, you don’t know that Madam Feng is more disagreeable than you heard about her in the rumor. If I disappear for dozens of days…”
“I’ve got it into consideration, and maybe Ming Yue can disguise as Feng Yang.” Ning Yuan interrupted him, pointed at the handsome boy beside him who dressed up like a manservant, then continued weakly, “Then you can disguise yourself as me to preside over the maneuver on the Drill Ground the day after tomorrow in Daning.”
“What?! You want Ming Yue to disguise as Feng Yang?” 「Feng Yang」 stared at him.
Under the mask, Ning Yuan frowned and nodded, “I wouldn’t make such a bad plan if I have another choice. After all, our action at Caobang Organization in Yangzhou City is the most priority thing. Chang Nuo, I know it’s very dangerous for you to leave Yangzhou City, but at this moment, I can’t come up with any better ways. Because I suspect that Lu Jiangbei probably has recognized me as the Gezhu of Wuying Tower. Maybe his scouts have already on their way to Daning.”
“Recognize you? How could it be possible? Lu Jiangbei doesn’t see your face! You overestimated him and his fellows.” Chang Nuo shook his head and refuted, “I don’t think he is as smart as you say. Chang’s Family and Lu’s Family jointly commanded Escort in Dijing City, while Feng’s Family and Lu’s Family managed the Lu Feng Escort. So, in the last two years, I have used two identities, Chang Nuo and Feng Yang, to establish contact and compare kung fu with him several times. He wasn’t aware of it. Beside that, Lu Jiangbei had once said happily to Feng Yang I played that he would introduce another senior Chang Nuo whose nickname is ‘little overlord’… Ha-ha-ha.” Chang Nuo circled the folding fan in his hand and grinned, “I was introduced to myself. Do you think there is anything more interesting than this in the world, Yuan?”
“Chang Xiaonuo, are you a fat head?” Ning Yuan coughed constantly to get enough breath and continued to blame him angrily, “I’ve said it many times. Don’t show your kung fu in front of people, but you’ve never listened to me. Do you think there are many young seniors like you and me in the world? Compared with you, the Feng Yang that you played is similar to you in age, body, voice, and both of you have great kung fu. Maybe Lu Jiangbei has already suspected you, so he said that to you!”
