    ?

    "Shop, did you send the wrong thing?" The old boy surnamed Zhang said boldly, "We have no friendship with the customer across the way. Could it be that this item was not given to us?"

    "Are there two elderly people living here?" the shopkeeper asked loudly.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang and the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu looked at each other.

    "If it is, the villain did not send it wrong." The shopkeeper said outside, "The two old men opened the door and quickly picked up the things. Xiaoke still has something to do, so he can't wait long."

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu stood up reluctantly, came to the door tremblingly, and opened it.

    The shopkeeper outside the door held a rectangular box in his hand, saw him open the door, put the box in his hand, and said: "Old customer, I have delivered this item."

    As he spoke, he looked back at the opposite room, turned around and left.

    Old Tongsheng surnamed Liu saw that the door of the opposite room was open, and the vicious man who looked like a pig butcher who had stared at him just now was sitting at the door and staring at him.

    He was so frightened that his legs went limp and he almost sat on the ground.

    He hurriedly straightened himself up, without looking at the man, turned around and entered the room with the rectangular box, and closed the door hastily as soon as he entered the room.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang saw him bring in a box, so he kept staring at the box until he took the box and sat next to him.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu put the box on the bed, and the two of them looked at the box. It was an ordinary wooden box with thin white wood boards and no decoration.

    The two of them just stared at the box blankly, without speaking for a while, neither of them dared to open the box first.

    But the box is right here, and it doesn't matter if you don't open it.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang finally put his hand on the wooden box tremblingly.

    The lid of the wooden box was opened, and there was nothing terrible inside, just an ordinary porcelain bottle.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang and the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu looked at each other, wondering why the porcelain merchant on the opposite side gave them a porcelain vase.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu hesitated for a while, and took the porcelain vase out of the box. It was a porcelain vase with a big belly and a thin neck, and it should be a vase used by wealthy people to arrange flowers.

    But what do those porcelain merchants mean by giving them a flower cup?

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu turned up and down and looked at the flower goblet carefully, and the old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang squinted his eyes to take a closer look.

    When the two saw the mouth of the bottle of Huagu, they suddenly yelled "ah" almost at the same time, staring at the mouth of the bottle without speaking.

    The flower goblet is naturally used for arranging flowers, and the mouth of the bottle should not have a lid, but the mouth of the flower goblet given to them by the porcelain dealer is plugged with a cork, which blocks the mouth of the bottle.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang looked at the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu suspiciously and asked, "Brother Liu what does this mean?"

    The weather was not hot at that time, and it was dusk, when it was getting colder in the day, the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu was dripping with sweat on his forehead. He looked at the mouth of the vase and said in a hoarse voice:  "Brother Zhangyou, can't you see the meaning?"

    Seeing him like this, the old Tongsheng Zhang couldn't help feeling frightened, and asked stammeringly, "Liu, Brother Liuwhat do you mean?"

    "Look, brother Zhang, the mouth of the bottle is sealed, so you can't guess what it means?"

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang looked at the sealed bottle mouth in surprise and asked: "Seal the bottle mouth?"

    "This is an idiom, brother Zhang" the old boy surnamed Liu said impatiently.

    "Idioms?" The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang squinted his eyes and thought, "The bottle is sealed. This, is this telling us to keep our mouths shut and not talk nonsense?" The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang suddenly gasped, and raised his head and said.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and nodded.

    "They, what do these people want to do?" the old boy surnamed Zhang asked in fear.

    "Well, who knows, I'll just say that they are not embarrassed or awkward" the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu said as he put the bottle on the bed.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang suddenly pointed to the wooden box and said, "Brother Liu, what's in the box?" He moved his head closer to the box to see clearly.

    After hearing what he said, Tongsheng Liu hurriedly looked into the box. There was nothing in the box, but a tiger-shaped logo was drawn on the bottom of the box.

    "What is this?" Tong Sheng, surnamed Liu, stared at the sign with wide eyes and asked strangely.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang asked: "What?"

    "Like a tiger"

    "Tiger?" The old boy surnamed Zhang shivered in fright.

    "Brother Zhang, what's the matter?" The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu was surprised by his reaction.

    "Liu, brother Liu, let's not take the exam tomorrow"

    "No exam? Why Even if those porcelain merchants wanted to do something, they wouldn't attack us, or they wouldn't have given us the bottle"

    "It's just that I don't want to scare the snake Do you know who they are?" the old boy surnamed Zhang said in fear.

    "Who? Could it be"

    "It's a bandit, and it's a member of Zhang Huanghu, the leader of the big bandit"

    "What? Brother Zhang, how do you know?" The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu was startled when he heard the word Zhang Huanghu.

    "This tiger" the old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang pointed to the tiger logo on the bottom of the box, "It's his logo."

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu looked at the tiger logo at the bottom of the box and was speechless.

    After a while, the old Tongsheng surnamed Liu looked at the old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang who had been silent all this time and said, "Brother Zhang, what shall we do?"

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang glanced at him and said, "We will leave the city as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow morning"

    "Really, really don't take the exam?" The old boy surnamed Liu said unwillingly.

    "Brother Liu, life matters. Zhang Huanghu's people are here. I'm afraid they're going to attack the city in the next few days. If we stay in the city, we're afraid we'll hurt Chiyu, so we're going back." The old boy surnamed Zhang sighed.

    The old Tongsheng surnamed Liu knew that what he said was right, although he regretted it, there was nothing he could do.

    The two of them were frightened that night, fearing that those porcelain merchants would change their minds and kill them to silence them. They sat up all night until the sky was bright, and then they hurried out of the gate and rushed to the city gate.

    Not long after they left, the door of the porcelain merchant's room on the opposite side opened, and the big man who had glared at the old boy surnamed Liu and a short and thin young man came out of the room and walked in the same direction as the two old boys.

    What happened to those two old boys after their birth, the author is not very clear.

    However, the old Tongsheng surnamed Zhang guessed right. Only two days later, Zhang Huanghu's army had already reached the city of Luzhou Prefecture, and the magistrate personally went to the city wall to defend the city with the officers and soldiers.

    Zhang Huanghu's army was unable to attack the city for a while.  However, fires broke out everywhere in the city, and riots broke out. Hundreds of merchants and rogues dressed as scholars came from the city to kill outside the city. They joined forces with the rogue army outside the city and quickly captured Luzhou City.

    The prefect of Luzhou Prefecture, Governor Yu and dozens of students and scholars were all killed or burned to death.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
