On Chinese New Year's Eve in Songxi Town, after every household has set off firecrackers, there are only some traces of fireworks burning out on the street.

The streets of the town were silent, there was no one on the street, and it had been snowing heavily for a whole day, but there was no intention of stopping, but it was getting bigger and bigger, accumulating a thick layer of snowflakes on the streets of Songxi Town.

In the middle of the night, five tall travelers suddenly appeared at the end of the town, riding all the way, their faces tired, their hooves stepping on the snow-covered stone slabs, and the sound of "creaking" was incessant.

The rugged man at the head rubbed his frozen red fingers, looked up at the words on the archway, and scratched his head, "Master, we're here...... What is the town of Gong......"

The man behind him helped his forehead, and he had a headache for him, and corrected him in a loud voice: "It's Songxi Town, how did you learn Dayanwen, Songzier can be regarded as a male, you will know that Xizier is next to the stream, and you won't recognize it if you change the word......"

The man "cut", in a strange tone, and muttered in a very heavy accent: "You Yan people are troublesome, there are so many words, who remembers!"

The scribe shook his head, "...... If I remember correctly, the master learned later than you, why is it that the master's face is so strong and vigorous, but you can't even recognize the words?"

He was a little embarrassed, his face flushed, "You just say I'm stupid, it's not happy at all!"

The scribe nodded very seriously, "It seems that you also know that you are stupid, the so-called stupid bird can make up for your clumsiness by flying first, and you will definitely improve your writing of 3,000 big characters a day in the future......"

As soon as the man heard that he was about to start chattering again, he interrupted impatiently: "Master, where are we going to rest today? I see that there is not even an inn open in this town, could it be that we will freeze outside all night?"

The young man behind him looked left and right at the layout of the town on the horse, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chen, when I looked at the public opinion map yesterday, I remembered that there was a post station near here, where is it?" On Chinese New Year's Eve of your Yan people, other inns do not open, and the post station will never rest, right?"

The scribe known as "Mr. Chen" was very accustomed to the young man's almost unforgettable ability, and he replied casually: "Of course not, if the post station is rested, I am afraid that the emperor will be like thunder......

He took out the map from his bag and searched carefully for a long time before he found their current location, his eyes bent, "It's in front, the southernmost part of the town......"

He raised his head, pointed to the southeast direction, was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the map, and muttered, "...... Pine Creek Township ...... Pine Creek... Town...... No wonder...... The post station has actually left the town, this post station was established at the beginning of the town of Songxi Town, and later this town was slowly built with the post station, so it will seem so close to the post station, I said how can it be so strange......

Generally, post stations are built on the outskirts of the city or on official roads, and there is no place in front of the village and no store in the back, usually a post in 25 to 30 miles, like Songxi Town, it is very rare to see a post station near the town, and he will remember it so clearly.

The young man didn't care much about these details, and nodded, "In that case, let's go to the post station to rest for the night before we go." ”

Saying that the horses rushed to the southeast, the others hurriedly followed, and the group took less than half an hour to see the southernmost part of the town, and sure enough, it was out of the town, and there was a second-floor structure house in the south place, surrounded by a big courtyard outside, and the sign at the gate of the courtyard was - Songxi Station, three big characters.

The rugged man was the first to arrive at the door of the courtyard, although the night was very dark, but the snow in the place reflected the whole world and the whole world was bright, and he saw at a glance that there were two men dressed as attendants standing in front of the door.

Before he could ask, he heard a cold shout: "The inn is full today, if you want to stay and eat, go to the inn in the town." ”

The man was stunned for a moment by their hostile tone, and then his anger rushed up, "Lao Tzu is still here today!"

The man stepped forward and was about to push the door, but was blocked by the two of them, and the man with a cold voice narrowed his eyes and said impatiently: "I advise you to get out of here, don't know what to do, beware of giving your life by mistake!"

The man's eyes widened in disbelief, "Heh, the person who dares to talk to the uncle like this, now the grass on the grave is as tall as you!"

The young man behind him saw the man's temper come up, sighed in his heart, grabbed him, and wanted to say that more things are better than less things, and he heard an extremely subtle sound of the blade unsheathed, in the corner of the young man's eyes, he saw the bright steel knife stabbing the man, he quickly pulled the man back, and the two people had already shown their blades, the blade exuded a chill under the snow, and it didn't look like an ordinary post man or entourage.

The young man stared at the look on the faces of the two, and blurted out in a golden and jade voice: "I don't think it's full, but someone is playing ghosts, right?"

The two of them didn't answer the young man's words, and said, "There is a way in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door in hell to break into, so grandpa will give you a ride today!"

As soon as the words fell, the blade swept along with the cold wind that whistled by, and slashed straight at them.

The young man dodged neatly, and the man was even more agile with his hands and feet against the cold man, and sneered loudly: "This wind is strong, you are not afraid to flash your tongue!"

The cold man no longer spoke, but the moves were very ruthless, the moves were all fatal moves, the man saw that the man really wanted his life, the light in his eyes sank deeply, between the two of them fluttering and dodging, the cold man obviously fell behind, the man snatched the knife in the man's hand, and stabbed the man with a force, and the blood soaked the snow at the courtyard gate along the man's body.

The man who faced the young man saw that his companion was killed, and the offensive became more intense under the anger, and the young man began to have the leisure to tease him, and when he got to the back, he found that every move of the man was a killing move, and he felt strange, and he no longer had the leisure to tease the mouse, and kicked him away, and the man fell to the ground in pain in his chest, and the young man walked in front of the man, stepped on the man's neck, and with a force, he heard a "click", and the man no longer moved.
