With Yang Cilin's eight horses, Tang Yinbrown and his party traveled much faster, and in just one day's effort, they arrived at the foot of Longji Mountain, which was originally scheduled to be reached in two days.

The further north and closer to the foot of the mountain range, the more sparsely populated the road from Dragonclaw City to Dragonspine Mountain.

By the time we reached the foot of the mountain, there were hardly any pedestrians in sight, and even the road that had been opened was overgrown with weeds because it was inaccessible, and the horses were struggling to walk on the road covered by branches and tangled roots.

Seeing that the sky was darkening, Tang Yinbrown looked up at the night sky - there was no moon tonight, only a few stars hanging there.

In such a sky, when the afterglow of the sun disappeared on the last day, I was afraid that it would be dark at the foot of this barren mountain, and I and Ah Zi were fine, and it should be difficult for others to distinguish the road conditions.

"We're resting around here tonight."

As soon as Tang Yin's brown voice fell, he heard the sighs of Bao'er and Ah Zhong.

"There is no store in front of the village and no store in the back, and we settle here?" Bao'er's brows furrowed tightly, and she looked back and forth, left and right, "There are woods around here, and it's just a matter of encountering some wild beasts at night, if we encounter an enemy, we won't even have a place to escape." ”

Tang Yin, who had been prepared for a long time, heard that his face was as calm as the night sky, and he replied: "Less than a kilometer further, there should be a clearing, and there is a Dragon and Tiger Inn in the clearing, which is said to be the inn closest to the territory of the beast clan, and we will rest there." ”

After moving forward for a while, I saw a wooden structure standing in front of me at the foot of Longji Mountain.

It was a small two-story building, and except for a door in the center that could only accommodate one person, the rest of the building was so tightly wrapped that there was not even a single window to be seen.

From a distance, there is not a single light coming through, nor can there be any signage about the inn.

If it weren't for Tang Yinbrown's explanation in advance, I'm afraid that no one would dare to say that the building in front of him like a huge black box under the night sky was an inn.

Tang Yinbrown got off his horse, stepped forward, and buckled the wooden door that was half a head shorter than him.

With a creak, a small palm-sized window opened on the door, and a dim light shot out, revealing half of his face.

"Staying in a hotel?"

The man behind the door asked briefly, his tone visibly cold and impatient.

Tang Yinbrown nodded, took a step back and saluted respectfully, "It's troublesome." ”

The man sighed loudly, slammed the window shut, and the wooden door opened in front of the eyes of several people.

Xing Fu led everyone's horses to the back stable, and the others followed Tang Yin Brown Fish into the inn.

"Ten taels of silver for a room. Shochu two two one jar, the food is solved by yourself, the store is not responsible. The man who opened the door walked behind the counter without looking back, chattering and chattering without looking up.

Tang Yinzhong's anger, which he had been enduring just now, could no longer be suppressed at this time, and he took a step forward and shouted loudly, "Ten taels of silver a night? I haven't come across a room at this price in Tokyo's Zuisenlou, so why don't you grab it? It's obviously an inn, and it's not even responsible for eating, so what kind of store is it open? ”

As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed the collar of the man behind the counter.

"Ah Zhong!"

Tang Yinbrown shouted, stepped forward and pulled Tang Yinzhong back, and then turned his head to the man behind the counter and saluted again and again to apologize.

The indifferent expression on the man's face did not change from beginning to end, and his eyelids never lifted, as if he was wearing a mask.

Obviously, he was accustomed to seeing the reaction of a guest like Tang Yinzhong, so he just straightened up again, straightened his collar, stretched out a finger and flicked the non-existent dust on it, and then glanced at Tang Yinzhong with a slanted eye.

After a long time, he sneered twice before he spoke again: "The small shop has been open for decades, and it has always been this rule.

"But I'm ugly in front, my Dragon and Tiger Inn is open at the foot of Longji Mountain, and behind it is the lair of the beast clan, and a few people will come here, presumably they don't know it.

"I can tell you responsibly that I am the only one in this 500-mile radius. I'm packing tickets with a few people and leaving this store, and it's hard for you to find another place to stay tonight.

"Tomorrow night is the night of the full moon, not to mention really bumping into the orcs, the terrible wails from the mountains alone in this night must be enough to scare these two girls.

"It's not an exaggeration to say that I can open a store here in the future, and I think it's not an exaggeration to offer you such a price. Whether you buy it or not, you can do it yourself.

"As for eating, hmph, you have also seen it, I take care of the whole store by myself, and I don't even have a buddy, let alone a cook, where is the person who serves you a few meals?

"This is at the foot of Longji Mountain, not Kyoto in your eastern plains, don't compare your drunken immortal building with my small shop. Since you have the courage to come, you should be prepared to endure hardships, and this sin cannot be endured, so I think it is better to go back as soon as possible. ”

Ah Zhong listened, his face was already blue and red for a while, and he was about to rush up again, but he was pressed in place by Tang Yin.

"The shopkeeper said very much, we will pay for the hotel." Tang Yinbrown said, and gestured to Xiaopeng, who was stunned on the side.

Xiaopeng came back to his senses at this time, nodded hurriedly, stepped forward and took out the silver ticket and respectfully delivered it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's face softened slightly, and he glanced at Tang Yinbrown and said, "Finally, there is still an acquaintance." ”

After that, he took out a string of rusty keys from the cabinet in front of him, threw them on the table, and said, "Upstairs, there are eight rooms lined up on both sides of the cloister on the left, and you can walk slowly." ”

Xiaopeng took the key, and hurriedly ran upstairs to help everyone open the room before Tang Yinzhong had a seizure.

As soon as I walked into my room, I saw a strong musty smell mixed with the smell of dust in the air. Ah Zi covered her mouth and nose with one sleeve, squinted her eyes and came to the bed, lifted the corner of the wet and cold quilt, and saw the gray-black mottled stains and a strong smell on the mattress that should have not been washed for a long time. forced her to put down the quilt silently, came to the hall, and barely found a clean place to sit down, and after a long time, she barely got used to the smell of the room, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that it is impossible to get a good night's sleep tonight.

Thinking like this, Ah Zi sighed, opened the door and walked out of the dark and windowless room.
