(ps: I haven't been to a driving school for a month.,I actually notified me of the exam the day after tomorrow.,Pit daddy, there's wood~But it won't be broken.,The second volume is gradually approaching the **stage.,There's wood~)

These two horses are a good breed, but they are untamable. But somehow in the hands of Wei Xu, he was docile like two sheep.

Liu Shaoyang couldn't help but admire him in his heart when he saw him leading the horse and hurrying so fast, and praised in a low voice: "Brother Wei came so fast, it's really a good skill!"

Wei Xu said with a smile: "I can't do many other things in 'ghost chasing the wind', but I still have the kung fu to lead the way." Otherwise, by stealing those many BMW horses, he would have been arrested and put in prison for an unknown number of years. ”

The two of them summed up and walked towards the liquor store. A guy from the store had already greeted him and asked, "Two masters, are you going to play a tip or live in a hotel?" It turned out that the store had divided the courtyard into two, with a wine store in front and guest rooms in the courtyard behind.

Liu Shaoyang said: "I'll talk about staying in the hotel for a while, let's serve a few drinks and dishes first!" The guy listened to the answer, called a groom, and ordered the two horses to be led to the backyard to bolt, and led Liu Shaoyang and the others in.

The shopkeeper invited the two of them to an empty table, and Liu Shaoyang glanced around. Seeing the more than ten tables in the hall, although most of them had drinkers, there were no soapy men who had just followed.

He secretly thought about it quickly, but said in his mouth: "Little second brother, my two brothers are happy and quiet. It's a bit noisy on the first floor of your shop, so let's go upstairs!"

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, don't you know, although there are four or five private rooms upstairs in the shop, they are all full tonight." It's really unfortunate, and I hope you two will take care of it!"

Liu Shaoyang listened, pretended to be slightly stunned and said, "Okay, then this is here!" As he spoke, he took out a few taels of silver ingots and put them on the table, and said to the shopkeeper: "You take this silver first, just pick up a few good drinks and bring them to me! My brother is not familiar with this place when he first came here, and I will ask you about some things later!"

Seeing that Liu Shaoyang was generous, this guy hurriedly collected the money, and said with a smile on his face: "What did you say, guest officer, I really don't want to go today! If you have anything to say in a while, just ask, I will beckon you to cook food and drink!"

Liu Shaoyang waved his hand, and the guy shouted and went to work. Wei Xu on the side leaned over and said, "Liu Zuo, look at those soap-clothed men, carrying the cloth bags containing the living people, in the private room above!"

Liu Shaoyang said in a low voice: "Brother Wei, I have taken a closer look at those people, and they are not weak in martial arts, not like ordinary bandits who buy and sell human beings. Since we are eating wine on it, we want to go in and save people, but it's not easy to do. ”

Wei Xu looked unimpressed, and whispered: "Liu Zuo, I think this matter is easy to handle." Let's eat the meal briefly, and I'll just need to do a little bit later. When those people are all overturned, you and I will go in to save people, and Liu Zuo will just take a look!"

Liu Shaoyang saw that he was in his chest, and said with a smile: "Brother Wei, your ability, these days have really opened my eyes! ”

While the two were talking, the shopkeeper had already brought a few colors of wine and food. It is full of local steamed stir-fried pancakes and braised pork in Zhongzhou, which is also quite hearty. The two drank a few glasses and ate some hastily, and Wei Xu called the shopkeeper to settle the wine account.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly rushed over, and said with a courteous face: "Two guest officers, are you satisfied with the use of wine and food? It's so late, so you won't leave, right? The little one will go to the back and arrange a place for the two of you!"

Wei Xu said: "My brothers and sisters still have to hurry, you just have to settle the wine money!"

His voice fell, and Liu Shaoyang on the side suddenly said to him: "Brother Wei, it's really not early today." It's inconvenient to travel at night, so let's rest here tonight!"

Wei Xu was stunned when he heard Liu Shaoyang's words, and was about to open his mouth to ask. saw Liu Shaoyang turn sideways and secretly glance at him. Immediately, his mind moved, and he changed his tone and said: "When you say this, I'm a little tired, then according to Brother Liu's meaning!"

Liu Shaoyang turned his head and smiled at the shopkeeper: "Then there is the second brother Lao in front to lead the way, and my brothers will only stay here for one night." The rest of the money will be all your hard-earned money!"

The wine and food that the two of them ate, counting the house money, was far less than one or two silver. And the ingot of silver that Liu Shaoyang just paid was about five taels.

When this guy heard this, he knew that he had met a generous nobleman, and he couldn't help but frown, and he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. Hurriedly asked Liu Shaoyang and Wei Xu to the guest room in the back yard.

The shopkeeper accepted the money very respectfully, and Liu Shaoyang also asked casually as he walked. The three of them went out of the side door and walked into the courtyard behind. Wei Xu pretended to be tired, but secretly looked towards the second floor of the wine store.

Liu Shaoyang said: "Little second brother, our two brothers went to Kaifeng to do business. This time it's the first to be in the past, I don't know how many roads there are to go from here to Kaifeng Mansion?"

The guy thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Guest officer, you are making a big deal at a glance! From our town to Kaifeng, there are two ways to go. One of them is to go west out of Sui County and take the official road in the northwest direction. ”

"This second way is to take a boat at the ferry port in the north and go up the river along the northern branch of the Yellow River to the city of Kaifeng. It's just a small mouth, since the guest officer has horses, if he takes the Yellow River waterway, and now it is the time of the twilight spring, I'm afraid that there is no boatman willing to carry it!"

Liu Shaoyang smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I know." There's one more thing I want to ask you about. To tell you the truth, my two brothers went north this time, just because they brought some silver taels, and they were the first to go here, and they were most afraid of encountering bad people who cut the path. Before I entered this wine shop, I saw a few soap-clothed men who were selling goods, very burly, and they also entered this room. It's just that I didn't see it, so I must have gone upstairs to the private room. If it's convenient for the little second brother, I'll take the trouble to ask where those people are going, so that the two of us can see if we can go together. ”

When the shopkeeper heard Liu Shaoyang's words, his face changed slightly, and he said in a speechless voice: "If the guest officer wants to ask those people, the little ones can know well! There are twenty or thirty people in that group, and they have all lived in the guest rooms in this courtyard for more than ten days. These people are mysterious, most of them go out early and return late, but they are all fierce. Xiao is the most curious on weekdays, and when he brings them tea and water, he occasionally listens to a few words. These people seem to be the characters in the rivers and lakes on Huguang Road, called the 'Flying Eagle Gang'. When I went in to bring them food and drinks after the soapy men came back just now, the group seemed to be very happy, and vaguely said that they had already arrived and were going to leave for the south tomorrow. Therefore, there is no need to ask, they will definitely not go north. ”

Liu Shaoyang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard him say the words 'Flying Eagle Gang', but he pretended to be afraid on his face: "It turned out to be a character in the rivers and lakes...... Since they are so fierce and not the same way, it is better for my two brothers to provoke less, but thank you for the reminder from the second brother!"

The shopkeeper listened to Liu Shaoyang's thanks, grinned and said: "Such a trivial matter is nothing! The little guy who has worked here for many years, and the people in the rivers and lakes he has seen, some of them are righteous and squandering money, and some are living like plague gods." These are like Lei Gong's, let's deal with them less!"

After saying this, the three of them had reached the edge of the guest room in the backyard. Liu Shaoyang and the two were invited to the empty upper room, and the shopkeeper lit the candlestick in the house and cleaned up the inside and out. Said a few auspicious words to the two of them, and then went to the front to greet them again.
