Chapter 136: The Post Station

An earthy smell rose from the ground.

Huang Dafu rubbed his eyes, lifted the curtain and looked out, it was pitch black.

"What time is it?" Wong Tai Fook asked the groom.

The groom sat in the carriage and observed the road conditions, but fortunately his skills were very good, and there were no bumps along the way.

He looked thin, but his voice was loud, "Master, you can sleep for a while, it's almost dawn."

"Really? I didn't expect me to sleep for so long", Huang Dafu's voice was still sleepy.

Huang Dafu asked again: "Can you know where it is now?" ”

The groom craned his neck to look at the dark sky, and there were no stars, and people at that time relied on the stars like today's satellites.

Nocturnal travelers could not tell the direction or know where they were if they encountered a cloudy day, and people at that time had a lot of imagination about the sky, and there were also special works on the understanding of the stars and moons.

Huang Dafu saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't force him anymore, "Keep walking, it's almost dawning."

The groom suddenly said, "Master, I know where I am."

Huang Dafu said: "Oh, it's so dark, how do you know if there is no light?" ”

"Sir, I smell it with my nose," the groom seemed confident.

Huang Dafu smiled: "I only heard that you can smell delicious food, but you can even smell it somewhere?" ”

"The smell of the earth is also different, and I can naturally smell it."

"Oh?" , Huang Dafu smiled, seeming to be very interested.

The groom continued, "The dirt here has an earthy smell, which is very different from the one we see in Dragon City, and I guess we will be almost at the station."

The smell of the dirt is not a barren place, to say the least certainly, but it is also by no means a place where many people live, and most of the life here comes from the wild.

Where there is cooking smoke, the soil will not be fishy.

"Really?" , Huang Tai Fook is particularly happy, this is the first post station, and the last post station.

There is only one way to Ziyu Pass, and even if there is only this one, you will never encounter convective vehicles, because there are so few people going there, so one post station is enough.

The sky was still gray, and the dawn in the east was not noticeable.

The smile on Huang Dafu's face could not be more obvious, with the gray and white, a dilapidated building slowly appeared on the horizon, a total of three houses, arranged in order, there was no yard, and a few thin horses were tied to the side of the road.

It's a bit too simple, but when I think of the rarity of people here, when I think of the fact that there is no village in front of this place, and there is no shop in the back, even a dilapidated house looks extremely kind.

At that time, most of the post stations could meet people's traffic and daily walking, and the food in them could be stored for a long time, and most of them were not very tasty air-dried foods.

Even if there is no mandatory regulation on the price of dry food, as long as it is not a black store, most of them are reasonable, and they will not start because of the large number of customers.

It is even more impossible for someone to steal a guest, because at that time, people had very little legal awareness, but they strictly followed a set of rules of the rivers and lakes, and they were very spontaneous.

This set of rules is not set by anyone, but the general consensus of the people in the market, it has no provisions, but it is very clearly imprinted in people's hearts.

Even if it was such a humble post station, Huang Dafu walked in with confidence.

He didn't come to eat, he stopped to take a look.

During the journey, people always like to pass by a place to come down and have a look, he pushed open the door and walked in, the dust on the ground, it seems that there are indeed very few people, and the table is also a layer of white ash, he blows it, and sits down.

But strangely, the stool he was sitting on was very clean, and if you looked closely, you could find a layer of marks.

Huang Dafu didn't care about this, and sat down.

Then he yelled for tea.

It took a long time to shout before a person came out, a person who didn't seem to be a stranger.

Huang Dafu felt familiar, but he didn't know him, so he smiled and said, "Boss, we're thirsty, let's have a pot of tea."

The boss was cold, didn't look like a businessman, and didn't have a smile on his face.

"We don't have tea here", the owner said coldly.

Huang Dafu smiled, "There are still those who open shops and don't sell tea?" ”

The boss lowered his head and said, "Wine can also quench your thirst."

"There is wine", Huang Dafu smiled happily, "It is best to quench your thirst with wine".

The boss walked back inside and prepared the food and drinks.

Wong Tai Fook sat with the groom at a broken table by the door.

The groom said: "Master, the boss here doesn't seem to be very good at business, and he doesn't even greet guests."

Huang Dafu patted his belly and said: "Maybe there are too few guests here, and he doesn't greet us rarely."

"But I think he's familiar," he said.

Huang Dafu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Do you think his face is familiar but you don't remember where you saw it?"

The groom nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, that's how it feels."

Huang Dafu thought carefully for a while and said, "I have felt this kind of feeling once before."

The groom blinked, "Which time".

Huang Dafu glanced outside the door and said, "It was that time when I went to a far away place and met a fellow countryman, although I didn't know him either, he had the shadow of someone I knew."

The groom nodded and said, "This is what is often said that one side of the water and soil raises one person, although you have never seen him, but his appearance and expression on his face have the same mark as a signboard."

Huang Dafu suddenly lost his expression, "But I don't have such an indifferent fellow."

Ma Fu said: "Although you don't have an indifferent fellow, sir, you don't necessarily have such an enemy ......."

While they were chatting, the shopkeeper had already come up with wine, a pot of wine, and not even food.

Huang Dafu sneered and said, "If anyone wants to harm us, at least we have to pretend to be a little bit better."

The groom looked a little scared, and said tremblingly: "There is a wrong, there is a debtor, I pull the cart, and it has nothing to do with this fat man."

Huang Dafu couldn't help but say: "You can be so clean, okay, you just pull the car, it has nothing to do with you here."

The groom ran out very familiarly, "Master, then, I'll wait for you outside."

When the groom ran out, the door was immediately closed, and Huang Dafu pouted: "Is it difficult to close the door and let the dog go."

As soon as the door closed, three tall men with iron rods appeared in the room, one of them was tall and strong, and his waist almost caught up with Huang Dafu.

"What kind of person should I be, the angel is too daring, and he actually asked us to deal with a dead fat pig."

Huang Dafu didn't seem to be angry at all, he smiled and said, "Is the angel asking you to put poison in the wine."

The three ghosts looked at Huang Dafu, and their tone was full of disdain, "Originally, we planned to do this, but now we don't need it."

"No more?"

"No need, to deal with you, I don't think there is any need for poisonous wine at all."

Huang Taifu's fat figure always seems to be looked down upon, and they look down on the big round fat man in front of them.

So when Huang Dafu made a move, they regretted it, but it's no wonder that others, they lied to themselves.

They had never seen a big fat man's shot so sharp, and they had never seen anyone use a pair of chopsticks to catch an iron rod thrown over.

Now they've seen it.

Now they're gone.

Sometimes killing is like flirting with a woman, there is a first time, there is a second time, there is a third time......

The first time I was nervous and scared, and every time after that it became fun.
