A few days later, the border town at the junction of Rongshao and Wenyun, Luoyancheng. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shao Suyi and Duan Ziyi, who had traveled westward all the way, entered the city, only to find that they had come by chance to catch up with the monthly gathering in Luoyan City. The streets were full of people setting up stalls to buy and sell or peddle goods, and the people of the two countries were mixed together, regardless of each other. In this summer season, the anxious heat has been turned into a kind of excitement like a New Year.

Because the son's faceless purple clothes and white gauze are too ostentatious, in order to make it convenient to travel, Ziyi changed into a black hat and violet clothes when he left Beijing, with the jade bone and gold ice blade fan in his hand, and he was extravagant, like a child of a family who was studying abroad. Shao Suyi had the heart to cooperate, so he also found a hat to buckle on his head, but he refused to wear it well, and he had to half-hide and half-hide half of his face. Shao Suyi was proud of this, and learned the unruliness of the gentlemen.

"Give."

As soon as Duan Ziyi turned around, he saw Shao Suyi, who had run to ask for directions, coming back, holding two bowls of iced mung bean soup that he didn't know where he bought to cool off. He handed one of the bowls to Duan Ziyi, and the other bowl in his hand dried up in one go, the hat on his head was crooked to the side, revealing a wave of "not knowing the inspection".

"It's a big gathering today, and it can be lively until the evening. From the street to the end of the street, it was crowded with people. Shao Suyi wiped his mouth with his sleeve, although his actions were a little vulgar, but he was more wanton and arrogant when he did it. I guess you definitely don't like to join in the fun, let's take a detour, find a place to eat and rest first, wait for everyone to disperse, and then replenish things and prepare to get out of the customs, what do you think? ”

Everything was said by Shao Suyi, and Duan Ziyi hummed noncommittally. Thirty miles away from Luoyan City, there were no people, and he originally planned to repair here overnight and leave tomorrow. Sitting on the back of the horse and slowly drinking the bowl of mung bean soup, Duan Ziyi handed the bowl back to Shao Suyi's hand, and turned around, "Waiting for you in front." ”

"Hey, wait." Shao Suyi quickly grabbed Duan Ziyi's reins, although Duan Ziyi let him follow him after leaving Beijing, he was still as lukewarm to him as before, but Shao Suyi was uneasy, for fear that Duan Ziyi would leave him and go out first. He took out a few pennies and bribed a street kid to help return the two bowls to the shopkeeper, and as he turned over and jumped back on the horse, showing a mouthful of white teeth and two dimples on his face, "Let's go together." ”

His eyes turned around Shao Suyi, who was pretending to be stupid, Duan Ziyi was silent for a moment, and finally just nodded, signaling Shao Suyi to lead the way, and didn't say anything. This time to go to the Western Regions, Duan Ziyi nominally wanted to search for Fan Chengsheng, a mad demon in the Western Regions hiding in the Kurobna Desert, but in fact, he was in the Devil City in the Kurobna Desert, which is said to appear once every ten years. As Ji Su said, Jing Yao would control the trade routes in the Kurobna Desert in the Western Regions for many years, and had a close and intertwined relationship with the merchants. If there is really any secret hidden in the Kurobna Desert, Shao Suxuan, as the leader of the Jingyao Society, must be better informed than outsiders. Therefore, no matter whether Shao Suyi, who was doing things for Yin Ran, simply came out to play and relax, or intended to follow him to explore the Devil's City, Duan Ziyi would acquiesce to him all the way. Because sometimes, it is safer to keep people around and watch them all the time than to be watched by others.

Shao Suyi, who didn't know that he was listed as a key suspect by the thoughtful Duan Palace Master, was chatting with Duan Ziyi while dangling his horsewhip, while pointing out and evaluating the shops passing by with him, "Ziyi, what do you want to eat at noon?" Rice or pasta? You're going to be out of the customs, do you want to eat Rong Shaoguo's home-cooked food again? ”

"Home cooking? Heh......" I don't know what I remembered, Duan Ziyi sneered and said lightly: "I'm tired, just take a bite." ”

Seeing that Duan Ziyi, who was still talking and laughing with herself, suddenly changed her face again, Shao Suyi chuckled in her heart, looked back and thought about what she had just said, and couldn't help but slap herself secretly. Knowing that this ancestor was delicate and moody, not to mention being lonely, he also rose to an adoptive father like Ning Xilou from a small stall, and suffered all kinds of hardships and stumbled all the way to grow to such a big age. It's so decent, what kind of home-cooked food do you mention to him, isn't this a rush to block others. But the words have already been spoken, and if you want to remedy it, it will become darker and darker, Shao Suyi simply smiled and pretended to have nothing, planning to find a restaurant casually and expose the matter, but when he turned his head, he saw an acquaintance coming down from the carriage in front of him, who was delicate and tall, it was the wife of Zhou Bo, a friend Zhou Bo who Shao Suhui made when he was in Northern Xinjiang, Liu Jiayao.

The last time Shao Suyi saw Liu Jiayao, it was when he practiced for Zhou Bo in Xuzhou Lianxuan Restaurant. At that time, Zhou Bo wanted to take the caravan to Wenyunguo to run business, and before leaving, he asked him to help take care of the business of Liu Jiayao's restaurant. As a result, a bunch of things happened one after another, and when Shao Suhui returned to Beijing from northern Xinjiang, she didn't bother to say goodbye to Liu Jiayao, but she didn't expect to meet her in this small border town. However, Liu Jiayao's face was full of anxiety at the moment, and she didn't notice Shao Suyi behind her, so she hurriedly got out of the carriage and went straight to an inn.

Shao Suyi touched her chin, and thought silently in her heart, Liu Jiayao didn't open her restaurant in Xuzhou, Northern Xinjiang, why did she come here alone. Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Shao Suyi pointed to the inn that Liu Jiayao entered, and turned around and smiled at Duan Ziyi without hesitation. "Ziyi, what do you think of this?"

In the past few days, trivial things such as clothing, food, housing and transportation have been arranged very properly by Shao Suyi. At first, Duan Ziyi refused to be polite twice, but later saw that he really couldn't resist him, so he gradually got used to Shao Suyi worrying about everything. As long as it didn't interfere with his plans for the trip, everything else didn't matter. "Then here it is."

The two of them entered the inn as they spoke, and immediately an enthusiastic shopkeeper came up to lead the horse, "The two guest officers, please, are you sharp, or live in the hotel?" ”

"If you open two upper rooms, you have to be next to each other, and the beds and bedding must be clean. Buy a table of your store's best food and drinks, and bring it to your room. In addition, we will get some hot water for me to wash, and then feed our horses. "The wealthy Shao Suxuan took out a piece of broken silver, shook it in front of the shopkeeper, and threw it into his hands." Do you remember them all? ”

"Thank you for the reward! The little ones are all remembered, remembered! The shopkeeper, who was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, hurriedly welcomed the two of them into the door, nodded and led up to the second floor, "These two upper rooms are freshly cleaned, absolutely clean and tidy!" The two masters looked around, and if there was anything they were not satisfied with, they could be ordered at any time. The small ones will be prepared for you. ”

"Well, go ahead, go ahead." Waving his hand to drive away the shopkeeper, Shao Suyi and Duan Ziyi looked around, although the furniture in the room was a little old, fortunately, the sheets and quilts were still clean and comfortable. Everything is simple when you go out, although the conditions of this small inn are average, but it is much better than sleeping in the wilderness. The two of them were in a hurry for days, and they were really tired. After a brief meal, they went back to their rooms to wash up and rest.
