Chapter 22: An Inn
"Wait a minute, this girl thought it was secret, but I didn't know that it was completely under my control, and when I got to the inn, someone would clean up this stinky girl. Liang Xiuxiu said, stretched out her hand and made a clenching motion: "When the time comes, she will definitely be worse off than dead." Brother Fan must be mine, and can only be mine. ”
"By the way, did that Miss Li see clearly?" Liang Xiuxiu asked suddenly.
"The slave saw it, but he couldn't see through it, so I think there should be nine products. The little maid looked at her master's face and said cautiously.
"Jiupin? Jiupin is also a master, but unfortunately she doesn't know who she is going to face. Liang Xiuxiu said with a smile, making people shudder: "Hmph, it actually aroused Brother Fan's curiosity, you can't live!"
The young lady who came out of a big family, no matter how stupid she is, will be a little more distracted than ordinary people under the influence of her ears and eyes, Liang Xiuxiu is one of the best, not only deep thoughts, but also good at hiding.
On the second day, the sun was rising, and everyone walked out of the tent one after another, Jian Ning'er looked tired, rubbed her face, wet a wet towel in the lake, and was about to hand it to Fan Yanqiu and wipe her cheeks, but Liang Xiuxiu took the first step, ran to Fan Yanqiu's side, hugged the other party's arm, and kept shaking and coquettish.
"Brother Fan, the grassland is so scary, there is a wolf howling at night, it is really infiltrating!"
Fan Yanqiu patted Liang Xiuxiu's head: "Don't be afraid, there is a bonfire outside the tent, and wolves are most afraid of bonfires and dare not approach." ”
"Oh. Liang Xiuxiu nodded obediently, leaned her head on Fan Yanqiu's shoulder, and snorted coldly at Jian Ning'er not far away, her nose slightly upturned, adding to her cuteness.
The carriage set sail and continued to move forward, the oasis behind it getting smaller and smaller, gradually turning into an emerald on the grassland.
Not long after the caravan left, a group of men and horses came to the oasis, the horses' hooves were bursting, splashing countless dust, on horseback, everyone was covered with cloth, with a steppe scimitar hanging from their waists, and their bodies exuded arrogance, and sharp whistles and shouts came and went.
The leader turned over and dismounted, kicked the ashes of the campfire left by the caravan last night, drew his scimitar, and with a gentle wave of his hand, cut the bonfire frame that had been erected.
The grassland scimitar, the Nanliang Liang knife and the Xichu long knife are the three famous knives in the world, but unlike the upgrading of the Nanliang Liang knife and the Xichu long knife, the grassland scimitar has always been stable.
The other person beside him also turned over and dismounted, walked to the leader, looked very respectful, and smiled evilly: "The big boss, the big family is not happy, it is better to take your brother and rush up, loot the caravan, and save trouble." ”
"Wait, there are our people in the caravan, don't rush at this time, it's not too late to start when the time is ripe. The big boss spoke, his eyes looking into the depths of the grassland.
The grassland desert is full of horses, fierce, hijacking caravans along the way, regardless of the old and young, women and children, are all beheaded, the means are extremely cruel, and the grassland sound horses are mostly the Central Plains people who moved north, in the grassland wind rating is very bad, the northward migration of the horses and horses is called the chariots and horses that seized the Central Plains, in fact, the grassland accommodating the Central Plains people is not smooth sailing, the living habits are different, so that the Central Plains and the grassland people are incompatible, the fundamental reason for the implementation of the rule of law in the book of the Bank of China is this, and finally failed to succeed.
Those Central Plains people who can't live in the grassland can only fall into the grass and start killing people and goods, and the team of ringing horses in front of them is the famous loud horse king Lu Chuan in the grassland, and next to him is the second master Tan Shuguang.
The caravan continued to move forward, unbeknownst to everyone that it had been targeted by the Ringing Horse, and that there were spies in the caravan.
At noon, an inn suddenly appeared on the vast grassland, and a flagpole was inserted in front of the inn, and a canvas was hung on the flagpole, on which were written four big characters - Yuelai Inn, the canvas whirred in the strong wind, as if someone was talking. When you look closer, it is more like an inn than a house, surrounded by low earthen walls, in disrepair, uneven, and mottled.
Inside the earthen wall, there is a sheepfold, covered with dirty mud, Li Yuanhao looked uncomfortable, thinking that it would be good if there was a rain, and the stains on the wool could be cleaned, and her heart was a little more comfortable, in order to resist the urge to wash, she looked up at the sky, and there was only that clean blue in her heart.
Ding Yi didn't understand the reason, and looked at Li Yuanhao's eyes, it was just a piece of sky, and there was nothing special about it.
When the caravan entered the inn, someone came out to greet him, a lame man, dressed in a grassland sheepskin jacket, his fur turned white and yellow, smiling cutely, bending down to Fan Yanqiu.
Fan Yanqiu gently replied: "Thank you, shopkeeper, don't come unharmed." ”
"I can make do with it, but I haven't seen Fan Gongzi for a long time, and I miss it very much. The man known as Shopkeeper Xie turned sideways to make way and shouted to the second floor at the top of his voice: "Stinky woman, Fan Gongzi is here to stay, hurry up and arrange a good room, you can't neglect the distinguished guests." ”
"Come on!" a woman came downstairs, revealing only one face, the other covered by a veil, and the whole picture could not be seen clearly.
The woman led Fan Yanqiu into the inn, Li Yuanhao followed behind, and the shopkeeper Xie beckoned everyone to tie up the horses, lift their feet and land, and make a loud noise, Li Yuanhao couldn't help frowning, it turned out to be a prosthetic leg.
Liang Xiuxiu had already run out of patience when she saw such a dirty inn: "Brother Fan, this place is as broken as a pig's nest, let's not live." ”
The woman who led the way stiffened slightly, and there was a strange light in her eyes when she looked back at Liang Xiuxiu, Liang Xiuxiu was startled, and couldn't help but take two steps back.
Fan Yanqiu hurriedly apologized: "Boss, Xiuxiu is not sensible, don't be surprised." ”
The proprietress smiled, only half of her face smiled, the corners of her mouth were touched, and her eyebrows were raised: "Fan Gongzi said that it was not bad, what this girl said was not bad, Yuelai Inn was like a pig's nest, not as prosperous as the Central Plains." ”
Everyone sat down, and the proprietress drank: "Little lamb, come and serve tea!" lowered her head and wiped the table again, placed the rough mud cup, and said apologetically: "Stupid shopkeeper, clumsy, don't understand the rules, forgive me." ”
Not long after, a shopkeeper wearing a thin shirt appeared with a big black iron kettle, the iron kettle was steaming, due to his short stature, when pouring water, he had to point his toes, after pouring tea, he didn't look at everyone, just glanced at the proprietress obliquely, and then turned around and left.
