Chapter 138: Fox Pulls the Plow
The morning is misty, the snow is clear, and the wind is calm. The shopkeeper www.biquge.info of the inn got up and opened the door of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, passing by the people lying in the hall, just shaking their heads and sighing, I don't know what is wrong with this world, why there are always some such people recently.
The shopkeeper opened the door and released the turbid air in the room, and the cold air outside instantly squeezed in, driving away the chaotic air in the room. The shopkeeper turned around and lowered the thick felt curtain to block the invasion of the cold.
Just as he turned around and flicked the brass hook of the curtain, a figure behind him flashed out quickly, bringing a gust of wind, and the shopkeeper seemed to be aware of it, and turned around without a figure, and was about to enter, but found that a line of clear and sparse footprints at the door extended into the mist......
Who went out so early in the morning? There was a lot of snow outside, but the man's footprints were not deep...... The shopkeeper didn't dare to think about it, so he quickly put down the felt curtain and walked to the counter to take out the account book to open a business, and suddenly found that there was a silver ingot on the counter, and the shopkeeper put the silver away without moving. Since the old shopkeeper became an apprentice, he has seen all kinds of strange guests in this inn for decades, and he knows the truth of self-preservation. These days, it can be heard from their words that these people are all masters of cultivating immortals and cultivating the Tao, and how can he do things that an ordinary person can afford, as a shopkeeper, he only needs to do business.
"Shopkeeper's. ”
The sudden sound in his ears startled the shopkeeper, and when he looked up, he saw a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, looking at him with a smile.
"The guest officer ...... But the guests who only came to stay yesterday evening?" the shopkeeper was flipping through the ledger, which recorded the check-in time of the two of them.
"Exactly, may I ask the shopkeeper, how far is it from Sangzi Town?"
"Sangzi Town, it's not far, but the official road has to go around the mountain, and there is a hundred and ten miles away, if you pass through the mountain, you will arrive after three mountains. The shopkeeper told the truth.
"How far is the city from here?"
The old shopkeeper smiled and said, "Fange City is much closer, didn't the girl see that my store is called Shilipo Inn, which is just ten miles away from Fange City." When the clouds and mist outside clear, you can see the spire of the Brahma Temple. ”
When Ahri heard this, he opened the curtain and looked at it.
"Alas. Now the fog is too heavy to be seen. The shopkeeper shook his head and said, this girl looks very clever, why is she a little stupid.
Of course, Ahri had seen it, and the nine-tailed fox's eyesight was beyond the imagination of mortals. It turns out that this place is already the outskirts of the city of Van Ge, no wonder the little knife will squat here.
Last night she entered the dream of the little knife, and listened to him cry and tell that his prince had been missing for a long time.
According to him, the prince was fascinated by monsters, and since the Midyear Festival met a monster on the top of a lonely mountain on Vulture Mountain, the prince was not normal. After coming back, he was determined to marry a woman from the mountain, and he was scheduled to marry during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but since they got married, the prince locked himself in the courtyard and no one was allowed to enter. Later, the courtyard gate could finally be opened, but the courtyard was empty, the newly married daughter-in-law was gone, and the prince was gone.
According to his description, the monster has two faces, one is extremely beautiful and the other is extremely ugly, the beautiful side is used to confuse men, and the ugly side must be to eat people.
Ahri was speechless, she still remembered what happened on the night of the Midyear Festival, but this kid was directly stunned when he saw Master Linghua, maybe his memory was confused, and he remembered the two of them as two-headed monsters. However, Ahri also forgot that he had appeared in front of him, fortunately he had a poor memory, otherwise he would have recognized Ahri's appearance when he met.
According to this, after she left Sangzi Town, Jun Muqing was gone, where would he go? Could it be that the man in the Ruyi Pavilion in the capital was really him? Or ......
The little knife thought that his prince was lost by the monster, and he couldn't do anything, and then he happened to hear that there was some fairy grass in the Vulture Mountain, and he thought that the masters of the world would come here, so he waited hard day after day in this inn, hoping to find a capable person and rescue his prince.
It's a pity that it backfired, I lived here for many days, and I saw a lot of people, all of them were wine bags and rice bags that were not even as good as their own, and Xiaodaozi was also very anxious in his heart.
In any case, the knife could not be used in this matter, and it would only be dangerous to keep him around, so Ahri sent him away and promised to return him to an intact prince.
"Girl, girl?" the old shopkeeper called out twice when he saw her in a daze, "Breakfast is almost ready, and the girl is using it below...... I'll send you to your room. "There are these people lying in the hall, and it is really not a place to eat.
"There's no hurry, just send it upstairs later. Ahri opened the curtain again, and the fog outside had cleared somewhat, and the trees in the distance were faintly exposed.
"I don't know when this thick snow will melt. Ahri made a deep shoe print in the snow, and by the time she landed, the snow was up to her knees.
"What, the girl wants to go out and go out to the lively place?" the shopkeeper guessed her thoughts, "The girl asked Sangzi Town and then Fange City, she must want to go to the city for a walk." ”
Ahri nodded, a little disappointed, if the snow was almost melted, she might have an excuse to persuade Lu Gongzi to go to the city. "I think the snow is so deep that even when you enter the city, it must be very deserted. ”
"No, no," the shopkeeper said with a smile, "the girl must be a foreigner, I don't know our customs here, every time you enter the moon, the city market is very lively, the thicker the snow falls, the more lively it is." It just so happened that the store was going to the city today to buy food and vegetables, so why don't the girls take our car with us. ”
"Really?" Ahri was excited, and was about to go back to discuss with Lu Gongzi when footsteps sounded on the stairs behind him.
"What's really fake?" Lu Gongzi asked with an eyebrow.
Ahri euphemistically and firmly expressed his desire to go into the city to have a play, and he wanted to move him by grinding hard bubbles, but who knew that Lu Gongzi readily agreed.
"Really?" Ahri couldn't believe her ears.
Lu Gongzi ignored her and turned to the shopkeeper, "Traveling on such a snowy day, it must not be a carriage, right?"
The guest officer was a connoisseur, and the shop had its own climbing plow, which was pulled steadily and quickly by mule. ”
"It turned out to be a climbing plow. Lu Gongzi nodded and said, "Mules are also good feet, but there are animals that are more suitable for pulling plows than it, what does the shopkeeper know?"
"Childe is talking about horses, although horses are fast, they are not tolerant of weight, and their endurance is not as good as that of mules," the shopkeeper was a little puzzled.
"No, the shopkeeper doesn't know, Qingqiu is rich in a kind of white fox, which is most suitable for pulling a plow on a snowy day. ”
