Dawntime, Xu YanandMei Sannianghave had the breakfastcarelessly, under the protest of Little Blackwheezing, arrived atwest a town/subduesbigmedicine shopearly.
天亮的时候,徐言与梅三娘草草吃过早饭,在小黑呼噜噜的抗议下,早早地来到了镇西的一间大药铺。
The medicine shopindeedisMei Familyopens, even ifXu Yancanoneshortly, becauseon the signboard of medicine shopwrites‚the Mei Familymedicine shop’fourlarge characters.
药铺的确是梅家开的,即便是徐言都能一眼看得出来,因为药铺的牌匾上就写着‘梅家药铺’四个大字。
The youngapprentice of getting up earlyopens the front door, stretchedto stretch, before the preparationsweptsprinkled the gate, raised the headto see a palefemaleandsloppyLittle Daoist Priest.
早起的小徒弟推开大门,抻了个懒腰,准备扫洒门前,一抬头看到了一个脸色苍白的女子和一个邋邋遢遢的小道士。„Is twothismustsee a doctororget medicine?”Overhangs a smiling facein the youngapprentice of medicine shopapprentice, said: „Ifgets medicine, the formulagivesmebecomes, ifsees a doctor, yourtwomustwait, the misterhas not awaked.”
“二位这是要看病还是抓药?”在药铺学徒的小徒弟撑出个笑脸,道:“如果是抓药,方子给我就成,如果看病的话,您二位可得等等了,先生还没睡醒呢。”„Who the presentstorekeeperis, isWu Kuan?”
“现在的掌柜是谁,是不是吴宽?”WhenMei Sanniangfirst asked that shehas left home for fiveyears, inLi Townalsohas the Mei Familymedicine shop, is the storekeeper in medicine shopmaynot necessarilyoriginal.梅三娘当先问了一句,她已经离家五年了,李家镇上还有梅家药铺,可是药铺里的掌柜可未必是原来的。As soon as the youngapprenticelistensto shake the headimmediately, said: „Ourfamily/homestorekeepersare not surnamed Wu, surnamed Zhou.”
小徒弟一听顿时摇了摇头,道:“我们家掌柜不姓吴,姓周。”Bad, in the Mei Sanniangheartsinks, the storekeeper of Zhou, shedoes not recognize.
糟了,梅三娘心中一沉,周姓的掌柜,她根本就不认得。
The bodymaynot have the certificatestatusthing, Mei Sanniangis a smart person, sheknows that stays here and other storekeepersalsoto no help, might as welltry to findothersolutionas early as possible.
身上可没有证明身份的东西,梅三娘是聪明人,她知道留在这里等掌柜也是于事无补,不如趁早想别的办法。Xu Yansaw that the Mei Sanniangcomplexionknows the situation is not good, heard the youngapprenticeto shake the head saying that again the storekeeperwas not surnamed Wu, explained that thisMei Familymedicine shopchanged the newstorekeeper, Mei Sanniangindeedwas the Mei Familyperson, butothersdid not recognize, was impossibleto give for nothingyourmedicinal herbs, not to mentiondialedto disburse money.徐言看到梅三娘的脸色就知道情况不大好,再听到小徒弟摇头说掌柜不姓吴,更说明这间梅家药铺换了新掌柜,梅三娘的确是梅家的人,可是人家不认得,根本不可能白给你药草,更不用说拨出钱来。Nomoneycannot hire the carriage, without the carriageMei Sanniangpoisonmaybe more troublesome.
没钱就雇不到马车,没有马车梅三娘的毒可就更麻烦了。Two peoplearrive around the medicine shop, Mei Sannianginserted a silverhairpininchignon the top of the headpulled out, herbodydid not havemoney, butbrings the head ornaments, Mei Familywas the wealthy and powerful familyrich merchant, thishairpinwasshe young timefamily membersbuysforher, value not poor, even ifwere plunderedYuan Mountain Stronghold, thishairpinis still always broughtbyMei Sanniangalong.
两人来到药铺一旁,梅三娘将头顶插在发髻里的一枚银簪子拔了出来,她身上没钱,可是带着头饰呢,梅家是大户富商,这枚簪子是她十几岁的时候家人给她买的,价值不菲,即便被掠进元山寨,这枚簪子也始终被梅三娘随身带着。„Walks, goes to the pawnshop.”
“走,去当铺。”Mei Sanniangis directing the direction, whenfalls the silverhairpin, the money of employmentcarriages and horseswas at least enough.梅三娘指点着方向,当掉银簪子,至少雇佣车马的钱就足够了。Whiletwo peoplewalkin the direction of pawnshop, businessmen of severalleather clothingfur hatappearancehappen tobeforemedicine shopgate, isyoung peoplealsocomes to the medicine shopto get medicineprobably, almostwalkedwithMei SanniangandXu Yanface-to-face.
正当两人朝着当铺的方向走去的时候,几个皮衣皮帽打扮的商贾正好经过药铺门前,为首一个青年人好像也来药铺里抓药,和梅三娘与徐言几乎是走了个面对面。„Youare......”
“你是……”Twogroups of people the wrongbody, thatis the leather clothingyouth of headturns headsuddenly, is frowningto stare atMei Sanniang, the doubtswas saying: „PlumSister San?”
两拨人已经错身而过,那为首的皮衣青年忽然回过头来,皱着眉头盯着梅三娘,疑惑地说道:“梅三姐?”Hears the opposite partyto shout itself, Mei Sanniangthenidentifiedcarefully, long time the followingrevealhappy expression, said: „Youare the third child of Li, expensive/nobleboy!”
听到对方喊自己,梅三娘这才仔细辨认了起来,半晌后面露喜色,道:“你是李家的老三,贵小子!”„You are really Sister San!” The leather clothingyouthis obviously happyextremely, the Qi Kingdomcommon social practiceis valiant, did not mind that whatmen and womengive and receivedo not kiss, hold onMei Sanniangto sayjoyfully: „IsISister San, IamLinoble!”
“你真是三姐!”皮衣青年明显高兴万分,齐国民风彪悍,也不介意什么男女授受不亲,拉住梅三娘欣喜地说道:“是我啊三姐,我是李贵!”„Fiveyearshave not seen, the expensive/nobleboyswere longare so big.”Mei Sanniangsees the acquaintancewarmly, the heartone.
“五年没见,贵小子都长这么大了。”梅三娘看到熟人,心头一暖。LiandMei Familyhave the businessto communicateyear to year, tworelationsare very good, LiGuixiaotimeisrunstowardMei Familyfrequently, followsbehindMei Sannianglike the tagalong, is very intimatewith his Sister San, has not thought that leaves for fiveyears, LiLaosanis a young fellow.
李家与梅家常年有生意来往,两家的关系十分不错,李贵小的时候更是经常往梅家跑,跟在梅三娘后边像个跟屁虫一样,和他这位三姐十分亲近,没想到一别五年,李家老三已经是大小伙子了。„Sister San, youhave not died are really good, Little Cheng?”
“三姐,你没死真是太好了,小城呢?”Mei Familyhas an accidentfiveyears ago, the Linatureis clear, not onlyMei Familythinks that Mei Sannianghad been no longer living, Linoblealsothinks that his Sister Sanhad died, has not thought that meetsinLi Town.梅家在五年前出事,李家自然清楚,不但梅家认为梅三娘已经不在人世了,就连李贵也认为他这位三姐早就死了,没想到在李家镇遇到。Hears the opposite partyto inquireLittle Cheng, the Mei Sanniangcomplexionwas paleimmediatelyseveralpoints, the bodyswayed, withoutXu Yansupported by the arm, perhapsshecanthrow down.
听到对方询问小城,梅三娘的脸色顿时苍白了几分,身子摇晃了一下,要是没有徐言搀扶,恐怕她都能摔倒。„Little Chengdied.” The Mei Sanniangsinkingsoundis saying: „Hisenmity, has reported.”
“小城死了。”梅三娘沉声说着:“他的仇,已经报了。”„Did Little Chengdie?”Linobleheardis also indignant, cursedseveralthesehatefulmountainbandits, asked: „WhichSister Santhisismustgo, the old manasksmeto leavesomestores, discussedseveralbusiness, Sister San, ifdid not do in hasteIquite a while, Ifinishedto entertainSister San.”
“小城死了?”李贵听闻也是愤愤不平,咒骂了几句那些可恶的山匪,问道:“三姐这是要去哪儿,老头子让我走些商铺,谈几份买卖,三姐要是不急就等我半天,我忙完回来在招待三姐。”ThisLinobleis actually warm, is not falseartificially, seeming likehim is very indeed kindtoMei Sanniang.
这位李贵倒是热情,并无虚伪做作,看起来他对梅三娘的确很亲切。„Iescape from the devil's lair, mustgo homeimmediately.”Mei Sanniangslightlyhesitant, said.
“我才逃出魔窟,要立刻回家。”梅三娘微微犹豫了一下,说道。„Sister Santhisismustreturn to the Pungsancity, good, will wait formealsoto go backa while, when the time comes will seeSister San.”
“三姐这是要回丰山城吧,也好,等过一阵子我也会回去,到时候在去看望三姐。”Linoblealsohas the matterin the body, preparesto say goodbye, hisactuallysmart, discoversin the Mei Sanniangforeheadssomewhatto hesitatehaswhatwords is not goodto open the mouthprobably, moreover a sidepackagedoes not have, immediatelytoldseveralsubordinateservantsput outtento string coins, said: „Sister Sanjustescapedascends to heaven, thismoneyis the expensive/nobleboygives the Sister Santravel expense.”
李贵还有事在身,准备就此告辞,他倒是个机灵的,发现梅三娘眉宇间有些犹豫好像有什么话不好开口,而且身边连个包裹都没有,顿时吩咐几个手下仆人拿出十贯钱来,道:“三姐刚刚逃出升天,这点钱算是贵小子送给三姐的路费。”Mei Sanniangdeclined to receive, two peoplesaid goodbye.梅三娘推辞不过只好收了下来,两人就此道别。Thendid not needto sell the hairpin, Xu Yanhehelaughed foolishly, looked that innext lifewill also really have the honored person, how otherscalledLiGuine.
这下不用卖簪子了,徐言嘿嘿傻笑了起来,看来世上还真有贵人,要不人家怎么叫李贵呢。„Little Daoist Priestbecoming greedy at the sight of money.”
“见钱眼开的小道士。”
The Mei Sanniangmoodalsoimproved, ridiculedone.梅三娘的心情也变好了起来,笑骂了一句。Two peoplefirstarrived at the Mei Familymedicine shopto purchasesomemedicinal herbs, althoughhalf of insufficientantidote, butalso the better than nothing, thenrushed to the carriages and horsesline, hired a carriage, selected the back of the handspaciousdriving a cartperson, prepared the dry rationsin the street, thisleftLi Town, rushed to the Pungsancity.
两人先到梅家药铺购买了一些药草,虽然不足解药的一半,但也聊胜于无了,而后赶往车马行,雇了一辆马车,挑了位手背宽大的赶车人,在街边备足了干粮,这才离开李家镇,赶往丰山城。At leasthalf ofmedicinal herbshave not collected, the greatcity that butQi Kingdomstrategic placePungsancitytyperanks among the bestinQi Kingdom, shouldbe ableto collect the antidoteto be right.
还有至少一半的药草没有凑齐,不过齐国重镇丰山城这种在齐国数一数二的巨城,应该能凑齐解药才对。
The Qi Kingdomhorseis indeed quick, the driving a cartpersonis the experienceis richer, althoughall the waytravel-worn, poursalsosafely and uneventfully, 78days of distances, onlyused more than for sixdayspoint.齐国的马的确很快,赶车人更是经验丰富,一路上虽然风尘仆仆,倒也安然无事,七八天的路程,只用了六天多点。MoreisthoroughQi Kingdom, Xu Yandiscovered the cities that passes throughwill becomebigger, but the citieswill be bigger, the city wallwill be higher.
越是深入齐国,徐言发现途经的城镇会变得越大,而城镇越大,城墙就越高。Whenheis looking up to more than tenzhang (3.33 m)highgiantcity wallsafter the Pungsancity, on the smallface is surprised.
当他在丰山城下仰望着十多丈高的巨大城墙之后,小脸上全都是惊讶。Whichthisis a city wall, thisclearlyis a mountain.
这哪儿是城墙啊,这分明就是一座山嘛。
The young fellow who small villages and townscomes out, naturallyhas no experience, the cart driver of driving a cartsaidwith a smile: „This is not high, city wall of Great Qiimperial citycalledhigh, the skycollapsed to withstand.”
小村镇出来的少年人,自然没什么见识,赶车的车夫笑着说道:“这可不算高,大齐皇城的城墙那才叫一个高,天塌下来都能给顶住。”Withstands the daywith the city wall, Xu Yandoes not believe that butwithstands the daywith the sea of people, couldbecomes.
用城墙顶住天,徐言可不信,不过用人山人海顶住天,或许能成。Acrosshugecity gate, the pleasantlivelyview, the streetshopstands in great numbers, if the pedestrianweaves, has the peddlerto hawkalong the street, the dialectshoutedprobablyperformsgeneral, is selecting the peddlerlanguage of shoulder polelike the bead, saidonebigslidesXu Yan has not understood, buteating in shoulder poletois fluttering the rich fragrance, has the youngbabyslightlyto depend the bodylitheto shuttle back and forthto keepin the pedestrian, touchesthisracketthatto become lostprobably, actuallyturns the handfrom the familiespocketsalong a purse.
穿过巨大的城门,入眼一片繁华景致,街边店铺林立,行人如织,有小贩沿街叫卖,方言一喊好像唱戏一般,还有挑着扁担的行商语出如珠,说了一大溜徐言是一句没听懂,不过扁担里的吃食到是飘着浓香,更有小小的娃子仗着身小轻盈在行人中穿梭个不停,碰碰这个拍拍那个好像迷路,却翻手从人家衣兜里顺出一个荷包。Thatwas the thief in legend.
哦,原来那就是传说中的贼了。
The Pungsancity was also calledFengdu, the sea of people in city, take toXu Yannoisilybesideslively, deepshock.
丰山城也被称之为丰都,城里的人山人海,带给徐言除了嘈杂热闹之外,还有深深的震撼。
The people in Linshan Townare many, butarrives atthisQi Kingdommost famousbigcityPungsancity, Xu Yandiscovered that Linshan Townin front of the abundantmountain cityunder a weedlikebig tree, did not compare.
临山镇上的人已经不少了,可是一来到这座齐国最为著名的大城丰山城,徐言发现临山镇在丰山城面前就像大树底下的一根荒草,根本就比不了。Perhaps100Linshan Town, arrives inthesehalfFengdu.
恐怕一百个临山镇,都抵不过这半座丰都。Followingtenzhang (3.33 m)wideavenue, the slowed the tempocarriagestopped from time to time, livelyviewall the waymadeXu Yanlook atenough, whenhethenwantedto ask that the Mei SanniangwhyabundantSansongribiggeststorewas not the restaurantinnwhenwas a giantincomparableshipping agency, hefainted from fear the female who returned to the hometownto faintsuddenly, the corners of the mouthalsoremainwisp of bright red.
顺着十丈多宽的大街,早已放慢速度的马车停停走走,一路上的热闹景致让徐言看了个够,待他回头想要问问梅三娘为何丰山城里最大的商铺不是酒楼客栈而是一家巨大无比的船行之际,他忽然惊觉回到故乡的女子已经昏了过去,嘴角还残留着一缕鲜红。
