Chapter 9: An Inn (I)

The weather in the west is very dry, there are the imprints of wind and sand everywhere, and there are always a few pinches of light blue floating in the vast Yellow Sea.

However, there is also a cool tide.

Even if it is hot, it can't resist the drifting air current, one rapid and one slow, facing the direction of the wind, as if the heaven and earth are blended into a dark gold, and even the slow ripples on the lake surface, layer after layer, rippling with golden light and darkness.

The more the wind blows, the more distinct the wrinkles on the surface of the lake, and the uneasy throbbing surges, as if a thin veil that is difficult to reach is quietly intertwined.

"Oh, do you see that lake, if Brother Xinyun wants to camp and feel the natural atmosphere, then Brother Xinyun can be a pioneer. But if you want to stay in the hotel, go over that small hill, there's an inn, but it's a bit troublesome to sound insulation. ”

Looking at the pair of people whispering on the side as if there was no one else, Chen Guguang couldn't help but quip.

Kua Xinyun tightened the soft heart that wanted to break free, even if he lowered the head of the mantis wrapped in light veil, he could detect her soft thoughts, but he didn't have a good aura for someone.

"I said Big Brother Chen, before you came, you didn't tell your little brother that this journey was so hard, trekking through mountains and rivers all day long, sleeping in the open air, don't forget, there are female dependents among me and the other group. ”

Chen Guguang smiled and touched his sloppy beard with some embarrassment.

I only listened to the soft voice of Liang Lan'er beside me and smiled, "It's not in the way, Brother Yun, Lan'er is not so squeamish." Besides, Brother Chen is already very considerate of us, saying that he is in a hurry, it is better to travel like a tour of the mountains and rivers. ”

"Hey, my younger brothers and sisters still understand our good intentions, that is, someone is old and cheap, and he is good, don't look at his age, he has buried his brothers along the way. Lin Chengwu said with a look of grievance.

"Yo yo yo, isn't this Second Brother Lin, you can't hide things after drinking a little wine, and you threaten Big Guy Chen all day long not to say anything, but you haven't poked out that little. Kua Xinyun didn't eat his set, but looked ridiculous.

"Yes, isn't it a set of silver needle techniques that deceived other little girls?"

"Yes, isn't it just that I drank some horse urine and got drunk and made a private agreement with others for life, and then regretted it?"

"Yes, yes, isn't it just that the head of the Renshou family was forced to kneel with a long knife?"

"Yes, yes, yes, this little thing, can our brothers laugh at you?"

"Hahahahahahaha

Brother Ka, you and I said a word, and shook the matter out and made fun of it, making Lin Chengwu look like he was desperate to find them, and his hands were densely packed with rows of silver needles, looking at the seeping people.

Along the way, it is estimated that only a certain widower is depressed, all kinds of abused dogs, all kinds of disgusted, shrunk to the side and quietly draw circles.

Now that they had decided where to go, everyone couldn't help but quicken their pace, and after a while, they saw the inn behind the small hill.

Seeing a group of people in the dust, a fat guy was at the door and said, "Hey, hey, take a look, come and see." ”

"What's the matter?" Xiao Er stood up, looked at it, and said, "Oh? tell Mr. to go." As he spoke, he looked at it from afar.

"Sir, sir, sir. The fat boy cried out eagerly.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar walked out of the door and said, "What are you shouting, are they here, or are the shopkeepers back?"

The fat guy smiled and said, "There are guests here." ”

The man walked and looked, had an idea, looked at Xiao Er and said, "Don't look blind, hurry, you two hurry up and help carry the luggage."

"Yes, yes. Xiao Er and the fat boy listened to the order, and hurriedly walked up to greet him.

Chen Guguang and these people, except for Liang Lan'er with a horse, all walked all the way, not for anything else, if they were really in a hurry, they were afraid that the little girl would not be able to bear it, so the luggage and everything were always carried by the Ka brothers.

Seeing that someone came to entertain, Chen Guguang did not hesitate, waved his hand and asked the Ka brothers to hand over the luggage and horses to them, and teased the middle-aged man who ushered in him, "Mr. Abacus, what's wrong, why did you come out to entertain today, the shopkeeper?"

Lao Abacus had studied private education for a few years in the early years, although he had been in charge of the account room in this inn for most of his life, but he always liked to be called Mr. by others, and he was familiar with Chen Guguang and his party, after all, all kinds of caravans often came and went here, and the hotel was naturally this inn.

"Hey, Uncle Chen, don't say it, a few days ago, the group of horse thieves who came from nowhere had to loot our inn, this is not the shopkeeper's worry that this group of horse thieves tasted the sweetness and didn't know how to stop, so they went to the town to ask a few swordsmen to guard. ”

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Lin Chengwu heard that there was something to do, and suddenly became interested, "Old abacus, let's count old acquaintances, count it cheap, free of room and board, this little thing will be handled for you." ”

The old abacus arched his hand and said respectfully, "It's best if you uncles are willing to help solve the problem, but you still have to wait for the shopkeeper to come back and get ideas." ”

With that, the group walked into the inn.

"Everyone, work hard, sit down, hey, you two, hurry up and pour tea. The old abacus commanded as he greeted.

"Hey, please sit down, please have tea. The fat boy and the child put down their luggage and followed another little two to greet the guests.

Kua Xinyun took Liang Lan'er's little hand, and as soon as he entered the inn, he smelled a trace of blood, and observed the inside, one left and one right, and there were two tables of guests each.

There is a person at a table dressed in a strong suit, with a delicate face, unable to distinguish whether it is a man or a woman, calmly drinking wine and vegetables, and turning a blind eye to the visitors;

One table is one old and one young, the old ones are quite good, and the young ones are a little vigilant and look at the visitors, and the smell of blood comes from their table.

Lin Chengwu was very arrogant, and he shared a table with Kua Xinyun and Chen Guguang, while Fei Yishan shared a table with the Kashi brothers, ordered some pasta and mutton, and drank tea and chatted, washing the dust.

"Uncle Chen, is it still the old rule?" The old abacus asked for something, and politely entertained Chen Guguang at a table.

Chen Guguang glanced at Kua Xinyun and said, "The rules are still the same, but I want one more room, and boil more hot water, this time, let's bring a female dependent, let Xiao Er pay more attention." ”

"Good, good. The old man walked away.

Kua Xinyun glanced at Chen Guguang, who nodded, indicating that he had also noticed, and smiled, some things don't matter even if you are cautious, you must take precautions when you go out.

The last time I met Xuan Hongyue, I made a deep impression on Kua Xinyun, and I can't just rely on my enthusiasm to walk the rivers and lakes.

And it also gave him a wake-up call.

Kua Xinyun listened to the wind and showed his edge, and it was good to say that the breath in his body was adjusted to the most stable during this time, if he hadn't taken the initiative to leak it, it was estimated that it would not be easy to detect this listening wind flow when he encountered Xuan Hongyue again.

Thinking about it, he was a little distracted, and looked at the girl in front of him in a daze.

Liang Lan'er unveiled the light veil wrapped around her head, smiled softly, and while sorting out the collar for Kua Xinyun, she seemed to be able to understand his faint worry, although it was not shown on his face along the way, but the slight pity in his eyes, as well as the inadvertent gentle actions, were like a warm current flowing quietly in his heart.

"Ahem," Lin Chengwu coughed with a serious face, "I said, brother and sister, you are too unfriendly to the second brother, although we are not outsiders, but this work of sprinkling dog food can be done in private, otherwise the old widower will always talk nonsense when he sleeps at night..."

Kua Xinyun hadn't said anything yet, the gaze on the table next to him that was about to burn was almost murderous, Lin Chengwu didn't seem to be aware of this unkind gaze, and wanted to continue to say a few words, a dark red big knife had been quietly placed on his shoulder.

"Uh... However, our second brother is a generous person, handsome and chic, suave, strong in martial arts, invincible, invincible, and charming many girls when he walks on the road, how can he care about the intimacy and show affection between your two little lovers, yes, it doesn't exist. It's because I'm so jealous of you that I talk nonsense. ”

After feeling his shoulders loosened, Lin Chengwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the young master was witty enough, otherwise his life would not be guaranteed.

As soon as he raised his head, he felt that the atmosphere around him seemed to be different, Lin Chengwu glanced at Fei Yishan, he wasn't looking at him, well, the boss stared at the door with a serious face, and was thinking about what to happen, when a familiar dialogue came from behind his ears-

"I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to cross this road, leave the road to buy money, dare to say no, Lao Tzu..."

There was a snap, as if someone's head was slapped, and then a scolding voice was heard: "Who are you kid talking to, Lao Tzu hasn't even spoken, why do you want to be the boss when you walk in front?" Also, now that we are horse thieves, can the slogan still be shouted according to the original, waste!"

"Wait for Lao Tzu to teach..."After the man who was known as the boss saw a few people in the inn, he was stunned and said, "Wait for the little brother, I will call Boss Chen, and then teach you a good lesson, this ignorant little egg, with whom Lao Tzu, against you, dare to play prestige in front of Boss Chen, and eat the bear's heart and leopard gall!"

"Big Guy Chen, Big Guy Chen, hey, hey, what a coincidence, again, again, I saw your old man, this is not a day like every other autumn, little brother, my admiration for you is a surging river..."

"Okay, Lao Dong, singing, my ears hurt when I was noisy, and after I finished speaking, I quickly got out of the way, and I want to invite you, I didn't see my daughter-in-law drinking tea, wait a minute, how bad it is to affect my daughter-in-law's mood." Kua Xinyun didn't reply, he was rubbing the soft flesh on his waist with his teeth bared.

Ouch, it really should, who let him swear, saying that walking the rivers and lakes, the chivalrous spirit was not touched, but he provoked a gangster.

Liang Lan'er glanced at him angrily, but seeing his grinning appearance, she was worried about whether her hands were heavy, so she quickly stretched out her white little hand to rub him.

As soon as Kua Xinyun grabbed Lan'er's hand, she was coaxed, and she was coaxed into a smile, so she had time to look at the "old thief", well, she was gray-headed, and she looked like she had lost weight, which was really embarrassing for Dong Chu with more than two hundred catties of meat.
