Volume 2: Ten Thousand Flames Soul Domain Chapter 263: The Inn
Without the blessing of aura, Shi Xiao now only relied on his own body to go around the shore of this lake, and walked to the other side of the lake with his legs. In this way, Shi Xiao also spent a lot of time, and when he reached the other side, it was already dark.
When Shi Xiao arrived in front of the wall, he realized that the gate to enter the city was closed at this time, and he could only enter the city until tomorrow morning.
There was an inn not far from the city gate, and Shi Xiao passed by when he was about to enter the city. The gates were closed, and now I had to spend the night in this inn. It's more like an inn than a small village.
One of the shops faces the main road, and behind it is a long courtyard, which is lined with canteens and then houses running backwards. At the end of the courtyard are three small two-story buildings connected together, which must also be the VIP rooms of this store.
A few meters from the entrance of the inn there was a large tree, the thickness of the arms of three people, and the bark was black and looked very old. Under the big tree is a grass hut, and in the grass hut there are several giant beasts that Shi Xiao has never seen. Shi Xiao knew at a glance that these giant beasts had been completely domesticated by the human race here, and they were all lying on the ground strangely, chewing a few yellow grass around them from time to time.
Shi Xiao changed his clothes, and his clothes were also very refreshing, after all, the temperature here was high, even if there was an ice vein, he could still feel the discomfort of his skin being baked by this temperature.
A cool vest and a pair of withered yellow pants, and a pair of sandals have been changed on his feet. Such an outfit, coupled with a slender figure and bare tendons, fleshy arms, and a delicate face, also attracted the attention of many women along the way.
The hotel is open at the gate of this city, and there are a lot of people who can't enter the city at night, so the business of this store is also very good, and the dining hall is also full of people on such a night, Shi Xiao is about to find a quiet place to sit down, and the little guy in the store also hurriedly ran over. first glanced at Shi Xiao, and said with a smile:
"Is this master staying in the hotel or..."
"Stay in the hotel!" Shi Xiao interrupted the little guy's words and said directly.
"Okay, I'll arrange a room for you, you can eat something here first!" After the little guy finished speaking, he turned his head and was about to leave, Shi Xiao looked around and called him over.
"What do you pay the bills here?" Shi Xiao asked.
The little guy looked surprised at first, but then thought about it before he spoke, "You're from another city, aren't you? Our city is traded for gold!"
Shi Xiao took out the shield gold, the little girl's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say it, just swallowed his saliva. Seeing this, Shi Xiao directly threw the shield gold in his hand to the little guy, and said with a smile: "Take it, tip!"
"Hey, you just sit down first, and I'll arrange it for you immediately!" The little guy took the shield gold, let go and rubbed it, put it in his mouth and gritted his teeth, and then said excitedly.
Shi Xiao waved his hand and let this little guy go down. After a few breaths, this little guy also came over with tea, filled the teacup in front of Shi Xiao, and then said:
"Quench your thirst first, I'll arrange a room for you now!"
After saying that, he turned around and left the dining hall directly, and walked towards the door, Shi Xiao took a sip of tea and enjoyed the noisy and lively atmosphere here.
The little guy looked happy and walked towards the door. There is a corridor outside the door, and the style is the same as Shi Xiao's style in the Huang Imperial Capital. The little servant took out the gold coin and looked at it again, then slipped to the right, and walked a few steps into another room.
The room was elegant, with a long wooden counter facing the door, and in front of the counter were tables and stools, but by this time the tables and chairs had been cleaned up, and the chairs were set on the tables.
The little servant looked around, but there was no one to see, except for the candles on the counter. Seeing this, the little girl didn't look for it anymore, so he had to turn around and prepare to leave.
"What's wrong with Xiao Li?" As soon as the little guy left, a crisp voice came from behind him.
When the little guy heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Shopkeeper, this is a terrible thing!
After that, the little guy turned his head and walked directly towards the counter, there was no one at the counter before, but at this time, a fragrant and gorgeous woman was dressed in purple silk clothes, and her delicate facial features were like being painted on her face. A pair of charming eyes, if ordinary people must have been attracted to the past.
The little servant walked up to the woman, took out the shield gold, and said:
"It was just given by a delicate guest officer, and it looks like he should be the eldest young master from a certain city..."
The woman took the shield gold, put it in her hand and weighed it, the corners of her mouth were also slightly raised, and then returned the shield gold to the little girl, and laughed in a low voice: "What people give you, you will accept it, and tomorrow you will use the gold coins to hurry back to your hometown to marry a daughter-in-law!"
The little girl was stunned for a moment, looked at the woman with a grateful face, and said with a crying voice: "Shopkeeper! The little one has been with you for so long, since I said so today, then I will leave tomorrow, go back and get a daughter-in-law, and then bring my daughter-in-law to come over to do things for you!"
The woman smiled, waved her hand, and then said, "I am afraid that the only one who can make such a generous move is the royal family of Juncheng... You take this, and after dinner, you let him live in the room, and you can't get it... And you can make a fortune..."
The woman took out a sign carved from solid wood with the word 'private room' engraved on it, and handed it to the servant. The little guy was also respectful when he saw this sign, and he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly returned to the canteen.
At this time, Shi Xiao's table was already full of plates, and they were all some high-quality food, and in the case of so many people, Shi Xiao also had to chew slowly. I just took a break from my chopsticks, took a sip of tea, and looked up to see that the little guy from before was also in a hurry.
Seeing the empty plate on Shi Xiao's table, the little girl also smiled and said, "The food in our store is still delicious, right!?"
Shi Xiao nodded, and then handed the wooden sign in his hand to Shi Xiao, and then said: "You are a VIP tonight, so my shopkeeper arranged a room for you, and when you finish eating, talk to me, I will take you over, I don't know..."
The little guy didn't finish speaking, and at this time, several strong men broke into the door, the strong men were dressed in black leather armor, and there were several scars on their faces full of murderous intent, which looked even more dangerous. There were six strong men, and they walked up to a slightly larger table and sat down.
All six of them were armed with weapons behind them, and their weapons were all uniform, all of them were plate axes. The plate axes behind a few strong men were dripping with blood, as if they had just finished killing some living thing. The surrounding guests were also frightened when they saw this, and hurriedly paid the money and left the dining hall.
"Xiao Er is drinking!" a thick voice roared, and then threw the bleeding plate axe behind him directly on the table with a bang.
Seeing this, the little guy on Shi Xiao's side was frightened at first, but he was born as the second child of this shop, so he had to bite the bullet.
"What kind of wine are you drinking?" said the little guy tremblingly.
"It doesn't matter what kind of wine, just good wine, come up quickly, our brothers have a good celebration today!hahahaha!" The strong man let out a rough laugh, and then several strong men also laughed.
The little guy hurriedly ran out, and at this time, the diners here were almost gone, counting Shi Xiao, there were four people who had not left, and they were all quietly eating the food on the table in front of them.
Shi Xiao was also a little curious, weren't all the drinks in this canteen at the checkout counter, why did they go outside.
At this time, Shi Xiao had already wiped out the things on the table, wiped his mouth, took a sip of tea, and prepared to leave. Just as I wanted to get up, a woman walked in, and the woman was the one who had spoken to the little guy before. At this time, the little girl was behind the woman, holding a jar of things, presumably with good wine inside.
When the woman entered, she first glanced at Shi Xiao, looked at each other for an instant, then chuckled lightly and walked towards the strong men.
Before the person arrived, the fragrance appeared, and these strong men smelled a fragrance, and their faces were also happy, and they hurriedly looked at the woman. A pair of thief eyes looked at the woman carefully, as if they wanted to see the woman into their eyes. The corners of his mouth also showed a lewd smile, staring at the woman and smiling innocently.
"A few of them are soldiers of the Guard... Welcome to our store!" The woman smiled, this smile can indeed be described as a smile in the city, if Shi Xiao had never seen Su Xiaomei, he would definitely be fascinated by this smile.
Suddenly, a strong man stood up suddenly, as if he couldn't bear it, with a mimican expression, and shouted:
"The shopkeeper's face is really as rumored... I wonder if the dance is as rumored to be..."
