The Dali Temple System of Crossing

Chapter 23
Late at night, the pattering raindrops hit the thick soil, making small pits. The rain mixed with dust waved wantonly, and finally adhered to the green grass, and then was washed away by the raindrops.

Cui Ge sat in the room prepared for him by the post station, staring at an oil lamp in a daze. The wick of the oil lamp was ignited little by little, and the flame gradually went out, and then someone picked it up with "tweezers" to prevent it from going out.

"My lord, it's getting late, go to bed early." A handsome servant whispered in Cui Ge's ear.At the same time, he held a basin of steaming water in his hand.

Seeing this, Cui Ge looked at the servant, and saw that the servant was holding the wooden basin with both hands, and one finger of one hand was broken, which was an old injury. The servant seemed to be struggling to hold the wooden basin.

"Give it to me, you can go down." Trager said, taking the tub.

Seeing this, the servant nodded, and then left the room, closing the door behind him.

Trager put the tub on the shelf and washed his face immediately.Cui Ge would wash his face every time before going to bed, because the wind and dust in a day would always make Cui Ge feel uncomfortable, but he didn't like to take a bath. If it was winter, he would wash his face every four or five days, and in spring and autumn, he would wash his face every two days, only in summer. Once a day, it’s not that Cui Ge is lazy, but Cui Ge thinks that as long as there is no peculiar smell on his body, Cui Ge doesn’t care if he is sloppy, because Cui Ge never cares about other people’s opinions. Ge only lives for himself. If he often cares about other people's opinions, he will be very tired.

The temperature of the water was just right, Cui Ge tried it, then picked up water from the basin and poured it on his face.

At this moment, Cui Ge felt some discomfort on his face, and saw a long hair in the water sticking to his face.

Cui Ge frowned slightly, threw away his hair with a look of disgust, and then washed his face again.

Soon, the bell of Tanzhou City rang again, and Cui Ge was awakened by the bell.

"It's really annoying. In this day without mobile phones, when will it be the end." Cui Ge helplessly turned over from the bed, and didn't need to put on clothes, because Cui Ge didn't take off his clothes when he went to bed last night.

Immediately, Cui Ge went around the station again, and finally found that there was really no clue in this station, so he stopped.However, after Cui Ge lived in this station last night, he found that there was no one coming and going. Even the villagers of Majia Village were indifferent to this station. Even if someone died here, no one came. The crowd watched, as if these villagers didn't even know that someone died here.

As for this strange phenomenon, Cui Ge was very puzzled. Usually, if something happened, normal people would watch and join in the fun.

Immediately, Cui Ge pulled a villager out of curiosity, and asked, "Mr. Lang, do you know if any major events happened in this village yesterday?"

The villager nodded and said nonchalantly, "The master of Tanzhou City died in that post station, and Ma Dahuang's pig was lost, and my cattle who plowed the field were sick."

Seeing this, Cui Ge was speechless. This villager actually regarded death as a trivial matter. Could it be that there are often homicides in this Majia Village?No, if homicides happen frequently, why didn't Zhang Yue mention it yesterday!
But at this moment, the villager gave Cui Ge an impatient look, turned and left.

Seeing this, Cui Ge gave a wry smile helplessly, but this place is no longer suitable for staying for a long time, and he should go back to his own house, otherwise, the king should be in a hurry!

Soon, Cui Ge returned to Tanzhou City, but at this time the sun was setting and it was getting late.

At this time, Cui Ge saw a carriage parked outside his courtyard, and there were four boxes, large and small, in the carriage!And Wang Jiankai was standing at the door talking with an old man.

Seeing this, Cui Ge hurriedly drove forward.

"Thank you, old man. When my master comes back, I will definitely pay a visit." From far away, Cui Ge heard Wang Gunkai's voice.

"You're welcome, you're all neighbors, and you can help if you can. Speaking of which, Cui Jiming lived here for a while 30 years ago and helped me a lot. This is nothing. "The old man said with a smile.

But at this moment, Wang Jukai finally heard the sound of the horse's hooves, followed the sound, and said: "Old man, my master is back."

The old man also looked in the direction of Cui Ge, and then Wang Jiankai and the old man stopped talking.

"Son!"

"Young Lord."

The two said.

Seeing this, Cui Ge dismounted quickly, looked at Wang Jukai and asked, "What is this for?"

Just as Wang Jiankai was about to answer, the old man answered first.

"Old Wuge, who lives just across the street, saw Mr. Xiaolang move here yesterday, so he came here today for a special visit, and brought some small gifts along the way. I hope Mr. Mr. Xiao will accept it with a smile. In the future, the neighbors should take care of each other. "The old man said with a smile.

Seeing this, Cui Ge's face immediately became friendly, and he said: "Please, old man, just now the servants are ignorant and have slighted old man. I hope old man will not blame him."

Just kidding, someone gave gifts, how could Cui Ge be unhappy, Cui Ge was worried that he had no money on the road just now, and now someone sent money, this is the God of Wealth, and he cannot be neglected.

When Mr. Wu saw Cui Ge being so enthusiastic, he was about to leave, but now he was too embarrassed to leave, so he followed Cui Ge inside to sit down.

As soon as Cui Ge entered the mansion, he saw that the whole mansion had taken on a completely new look, completely gone from the desolation of yesterday. It seemed that those beggars were quite reliable in their work!

Cui Ge thought, and then welcomed Mr. Wu into the hall.The hall is the place to receive guests, and it is also the distinction between the front and back yards.Located directly opposite the gate.

"Come here, serve tea to Mr. Wu." Cui Ge smiled and ordered a servant.

Seeing this, the servant's expression turned pale, and he whispered next to Cui Ge's ear: "Master, the mansion has not purchased any items, and there is no tea."

When Cui Ge saw this, he remembered that he had never purchased anything, but since the words had been spoken, Cui Ge could not take them back, otherwise there would be no face left.

However, Trigg was not helpless, and then he whispered to the slave: "Go and pick some peach blossom petals, a pot of hot water, and two teacups! Don't worry about the rest."

After finishing speaking, Cui Ge smiled and said, "Old man, please sit down."

Immediately Cui Ge confronted the old man Wu.

"Old man, don't blame me for the shabby home," Cui Ge said.

It's really shabby, this hall doesn't even have a piece of cloth, it's just an empty place, and this place doesn't even have futons.But fortunately, there is still a low table, which can also receive guests.

"It's okay, no one has lived in this house for nearly 30 years. I still remember that the previous owner was your grandfather. I didn't expect that time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, his grandson is so old, haha." Old man Wu said with a smile.
