Chapter 13 Tea Station Break
In the past, I fought demons, I also slept in the open air, went to very remote places, and it was common to shed blood and tears, but at that time, with the ghostly shield knife, I always felt that I should do that, so as to be worthy of the choice of the artifact.
It's just that there is only a distance between north and south at the moment, and Yun Qi feels very tormented. In addition to the body being damaged and becoming more and more emaciated and thin, there is also the hard problem of filling the stomach in front of us. Su Chenyi is just hunting game and picking some wild fruits, the taste is really not flattering...
After all, I'm not hungry.
And what made Yun Qi care about it was not this matter, but the monsters that appeared from time to time along the way. Since the small post station on the first day, as long as you stay for more than three hours, there will be demons haunting you, and Su Chenyi will not stay, if you meet it, you will hurry up. Although the mortal realm has not been very peaceful in the past few hundred years, it is the head of the Cangliu genus, and there is no reason for the monster to be so eyeless.
It's just that if you have to say that, Su Chenyi is indeed a person who doesn't practice, and when he walks on the road, he has more momentum than others, and he can't see anything more, and it's normal for those demons to be blind.
Su Chenyi also seemed to be aware of this situation, and every time he stopped, he only stayed for two hours, and then continued to get on his horse and move forward, but he was in the way of the clouds, and he rested more often.
For another three days in a row, Su Chenyi seemed to have rested for less than an hour. Yun Qi saw that his eyes were slightly sunken, his face was a little depressed, and he didn't care much. It's just that he still said at an official road teahouse, "Master, let's stop and have a cup of tea." β
The inn had no dwelling, only a small thatched hut with a bamboo pole in front of it and red rags hanging from it. There are also thick bamboo poles on both sides for tying horses, and in the open space in front of the thatched hut, there are a lot of wooden tables and chairs, about a dozen or so Jianghu knights sit in the middle to rest, and Xiao Er will serve tea and water there.
Su Chenyi glanced behind him, it had been four hours since he last stopped, his stomach was burning, his throat was thirsty, and he was a little lacking in energy, so he nodded in agreement.
It's just that Fang dismounted and walked over with a rope, and a few people couldn't help but look at it more. Su Chenyi is tall, standing tall and thin, with a calm complexion, and even with the bearing of a noble son and an indescribable warmth. Besides, there is a twelve-year-old girl, but the girl looks a little haggard, but she has braids at the back of her head, no headdress, and there is a bit of unruliness hidden in her eyes, which adds a bit of momentum to the ordinary girl.
Xiao Er came over and poured two cups of tea first, and hurriedly asked the two of them to sit down.
Yun Qi pinched his neck, and touched his little belly, this road was really uncomfortable, and I don't know why Su Chenyi didn't say a word, "Master, when will Wancheng in the south arrive?" β
The two tea cups on the table are not exquisite, and there is a small gap in front of Su Chenyi, the brown and black tea cups are also clean, but they don't look very good. He raised his eyes to look at the clouds, picked up the teacup and sniffed lightly, "It will take ten days." β
"For so long..."Yun Qi put his head on the table, holding his arm helplessly. If it was before, it would have been three days to make a trick, how could it be that it would have been ten days since it had been gone, and it would have been ten days! "Master, why don't you practice? Like the master, there is some cultivation, and you can get a trick. β
Su Chenyi chuckled and said no more.
The two innermost people glanced at each other, no longer caring about the people who came suddenly, and the smaller ones were grinning at the corners of their mouths, not knowing what they were thinking. Dressed like this, no matter what their identity is, it has little to do with them. One of them was young, his face was bearded but very eye-catching, and his voice was rough, he took a sip of tea from his cup, the tea was bitter and not sweet, but he didn't care, just quenched his thirst and said, "I heard that the official road in the south has been very uneven recently, so we should be fine in the past, right?" β
The man on the other side was much more gentle, but the coarse linen clothes hid his temperament. The man just chuckled, "Brother Li seems to know only one and not the other. β
There were a few dry tea leaves floating in the teacup, as well as the tea that was brewing green, Yun Qi shook the teacup with it, but he listened to the two people over there.
"What do you mean by that?" The bearded young man leaned closer, as if he was very concerned.
Sven's man touched the money bag on his waist, tied it tightly, and then lowered his voice and said, "It seems that the demon boss in that area touched something that shouldn't be touched, moved his vitality, and needed something to make up for it." The Cangliu group couldn't suppress it, so the monster went rampant and grabbed people everywhere. β
The bearded man listened to it, but he pressed the long sword path that was put aside, "ThisβIsn't this very dangerous?" Big brother, you still let me follow you to the south, don't you want to hurt me? β
Sven Ren smiled again, and subconsciously glanced at Yun Qi's side, the beard didn't know what it meant, and also glanced at it, Su Chenyi only looked at the tea cup, frowned almost imperceptibly, and only took a sip of tea. Sven lowered his voice even more, and said in the ear of the bearded man, "That monster, happy little girl." β
Su Chenyi paused in his hand and glanced at the two people who were talking, this small post station is such a place, the table is next to the table, the stool is next to the stool, although the two of them whispered, the people next to them were silent, and they seemed to be listening to the movement here. At the moment, they couldn't help but glance at the clouds.
Being watched like this, Yun Qi wanted to pretend that he didn't know that there was nothing he could do, so he turned his head and looked around, but he didn't speak.
The beard also reacted, turned sideways, and wanted to lean back against Su Chenyi, "Big brother, what do you mean?" β
Sven shook his head, reached out and dipped the tea in the cup, then wrote the word 'Sui' on the table, and then raised his eyebrows in the direction of Yun Qi. The beard finally understood, and the other people at the table also looked at each other.
Thinking that it was no secret that there was an artifact in the southern stronghold, Su Chenyi glanced around, nine times out of ten, these people were heading towards the southern stronghold, if they were not going to the artifact, they were going to join in the fun. In recent years, there have been more scattered people in the rivers and lakes, and they will go where there is something, they have no ability, but they have to look at jokes, and in the end they may fall into trouble and become a burden.
Yun Ji didn't pay attention to them, thinking about sitting for a while before leaving. However, Su Chenyi was a little worried, but his face was still calm, and Yun Qi glanced at the horses tied side by side, "Master, does this post station sell food?" Why don't we buy some dry food and take it with us? β
Su Chenyi raised her head and put down the teacup, looking at her very indifferently, but she understood the meaning of Yun Qi's words in her heart. Yun Qi stared at him, his eyes were shining, but Su Chenyi didn't speak for a long time, and when Yun Qi was about to go to get the burden and get the silver, he said tepidly, "This is just a tea station." β
