Chapter 36: The Silver Guard
There was a sound of soldiers and horses stepping in the distance, and Ming Mo quietly opened the window, while Kui Cao was still lying in a daze.
First, a column of soldiers dressed in silver-white armor, rustling when they walked, and the sunlight reflected on it and shot in all directions, so that Ming Mo couldn't help but cover it with his hands, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he secretly praised the quality of the armor in his heart, and the soldiers walked neatly.
After a while, I saw several carriages on display in the middle, and the two white horses in front of each carriage were also tall and mighty, and their vests emitted silver light. Ming Mo picked up a bowl of tea next to him: "It seems that this horse is so tall, and its temperament is estimated to be very bad, and the breed must be superior, that is, I don't know how horse trainers tame them." ”
Awakened by the immensity of the scene, Kui Cao walked to the vicinity of the dark and looked out the window. Originally, his eyes were blank and he scolded a few words, after all, people had just woken up, and then they were shocked by the scene, and they were sleepy.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and when Kui opened the door, he saw that it was the shopkeeper. The female shopkeeper said a few words earnestly, and Ming Mo nodded in acquiescence. The female shopkeeper then left.
The carriage stopped, and some of the guards knelt in front of the carriage, waiting for the "nobles" sitting in the carriage to come down. The men stepped on the backs of the guards and walked on the ground.
Shen Mo looked around, looking for the Emperor of Heaven or the National Teacher. Although I don't know what the other party looks like, it's purely my own curiosity. But after searching for a week, he could only see one or two people getting out of the carriage, and he did not dare to judge easily.
The guards were all dispersed, and Ming Mo closed the window and lay quietly on the bed, enjoying the feeling brought by the soft duvet. After a while, there was a burst of talking outside the door.
"Obviously, there is a ...... hanging here" This was a man's voice, and Ming Mo stood up and patted Kui Cao again.
"This is what we invite ......" a woman's voice, but Mingmo's hearing could tell that it was the voice of the female shopkeeper.
"Then let's do it ourselves......" After a while, there was a sound of kicking the door outside, and Nangong Mingmo hurriedly took out his re-refined long sword from the corner. Nangong Kui Cao took off the flying knife in his earlobe, held it in his hand, and was ready to go.
The door was kicked open by a crisp sound, and they were met by two guards in silver armor, both of whom were followed by the female shopkeeper, whose face showed an anxious expression. She glanced at Styx, who nodded.
"You're the security guards hired here?" asked one of the guards, a mixture of disdain.
Ming Mo wiped the sword in his hand, lowered his head and said, "We've been working here for a few years, what? What do you want to do?"
Another guard preemptively said: "The inn here has been contracted by us, please ask two ......"
Ming Mo raised his head and looked at him with sharp eyes: "We all bought this house a long time ago, and this is our private room." ”
The two guards struggled, and finally one of the guards said, "Don't think we don't know, you two don't want strong security guards." ”
Before the words fell, Ming Mo had already put the head of the sword against the guard's neck, Kui Cao clamped the flying knife between his fingers, and his hand was against the throat of the other guard.
The two put down their weapons at the same time, and Ming Mo said, "This is finally okay, right?"
The two guards were so frightened that they fled and said nothing.
The shopkeeper said a blessing to them and left.
Shen Mo yawned, closed the door, and lay motionless on the bed. Kui Cao secretly said: "Motionless is the eighth king." Then he was kicked by Styx Mo, and finally went to rest.
