Chapter 132: Coming to the Bazaar
The mine was some distance from the village, and Mo Ya drove Mo Yuanyuan in a carriage to a place that looked like a market.
"After this bazaar, a short walk north is the mine, where there are soldiers, civilians like us can't go there at will without being recruited," Mo Ya put her down, and explained uneasily, "You don't look like us, you should be especially careful, don't be caught by them." ”
Mo Yuanyuan nodded, "Don't worry, village chief, I'll be careful." ”
Although Moya was still not very relieved, it was getting late, and although the affairs of the neighboring village had been sent to report to the above, he still needed to be presided over by the village head, so he had no choice but to return overnight.
As the sun sets in the west, night is approaching, and the carriage fades into the dim light.
Mo Yuanyuan waited for the carriage to go away before turning to look at the bustling bazaar, and had a guess in her heart.
This is a worm world, Joseph has no tentacles like himself, plus he has killed people before, although he has done this kind of thing countless times, but after all, this is in a foreign land, it is inevitable that there will be some inconvenience, now he must be hiding in some dark corner of the market, waiting for the arrival of the starship, right?
Walking slowly into the bazaar, Mo Yuanyuan touched the jingling coins in her pocket and felt warm in her heart, which was the village chief who felt all over his pocket before turning out the only few crowns.
In the bazaar, there are vendors on both sides of the road, and Mo Yuanyuan bypassed these crowds of people blocking the street and walked into an inconspicuous alley.
At the end of the alley is a simply decorated inn, which was specially ordered by the village chief, who used to stay here when he came here, and was said to be cheap and clean.
There was only a simple sign at the door of the inn with strange handwriting written on it, and Mo Yuanyuan guessed that it probably meant the hotel.
Step through the wooden gate. Inside was a small yard, with a grass hut on one side, which looked like a stable, and a wooden fence on the other half, in which a few feathered chicks were running back and forth.
Seeing the layout of the courtyard like this, Mo Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows, this is not like a hotel. It's like a householder's house.
"Anyone?" Silence for a moment. Mo Yuanyuan shouted.
"Yes, yes," a loud female voice came from the wooden high-roofed room inside.
Soon. A chubby woman came out of it, "Girl, you...... Stay? ”
The woman's hands were full of white things, and Mo Yuanyuan guessed that she was cooking at this time.
"Yes. Mo Ya introduced me here," Mo Yuanyuan smiled slightly. Try to show the friendly side.
Seeing that she had no antennae, the woman looked up and down suspiciously, and when she heard her say that it was Moya's introduction, she eased the look on her face, and smiled on her cheeks. "Since it was introduced by an acquaintance, it's easy to say. Come on, inside please. ”
Between words. Mo Yuanyuan followed the woman into the house.
In the center of the room is a wooden round table, which has probably been in use for a long time. It has a special sheen formed by friction, and there are several stools against the walls on both sides, and a small table is placed by the window, on which is a budding flower pot is placed, and wisps of fragrance linger in the room.
The woman moved the wooden plate on the table, and Mo Yuanyuan glanced at it, the white ball inside should be dough!
"Girl, you are going to stay for a few days, what do you want?" The woman asked straight to the point as she pulled her into her seat.
Mo Yuanyuan was a little hesitant, to be honest, she didn't know how many days she would have to stay, on this trip, she wanted to find Joseph, get rid of him, avenge those farmers and Judy, and second, she wanted to board the starship and leave here.
She had heard Ji Zexi say before that the insect princess Lilith had a smooth wrist, liked to do things from the overall situation, and had a high interest in the interconnection between the two galaxies.
If she can find Lilith, and Lilith really wants to befriend the Covenant, she will be sent back. Taking a step back, if she doesn't agree, she's sure she'll be out before she is captured. As for the after...... Now she doesn't have the conditions or the ability to think about it so much.
"Can you inquire about the situation in the mining area?" After a moment of silence, Mo Yuanyuan looked at the other side.
The woman frowned, "What do you want to ask?" ”
"I've heard that only the mines have starships here, I want to know when the patrols will come, and how often will the starships come?"
The woman glanced at her, a look of wariness on her face, "Why are you asking this?" ”
Mo Yuanyuan smiled, "There was a big crime in the neighboring village of Moya, all the people in the village were killed, the murderer should be hiding somewhere in the market, waiting for the opportunity to board the starship that came to patrol, I asked this to catch him before he escaped, so that no more innocent people would suffer." ”
The woman's hands shook unconsciously when she said, "Are you telling the truth?" ”
Mo Yuanyuan nodded, "I don't have to lie to you about this kind of thing, this is not far from Moya, and the news should be able to come in a few days." ”
"That murderer is so powerful, can you catch him like this?" The woman looked at Mo Yuanyuan's thin and thin appearance, and her face was full of disbelief.
Mo Yuanyuan laughed when she said, "Don't underestimate me so much, I'm also a good hand in our place." ”
The woman laughed twice and nodded her head meaningfully, but she still didn't believe it in her heart.
"It's a coincidence that you're here at this time, I've heard that the patrol is coming soon, as for the specific time, when someone comes to clean up the market, that's it."
"Okay, then I'll stay until that time," Mo Yuanyuan set the time happily.
Estimating the time, the woman was overjoyed: "We have two crowns a day here, and we are in charge of three meals." You can rest assured, my craftsmanship is one of the best around here, and there are many customers who come to the hotel for my craftsmanship. ”
Mo Yuanyuan twitched the corners of her mouth, she already had a preliminary understanding of the food in their galaxy in the past few days, because of the temperature, there are few types of food here, the yield is low, and the taste is not to mention how delicious it is, everyone is already thankful that they can just be satisfied.
"Then I'm bothering you." Mo Yuanyuan politely handed over the coin.
The woman put the coin in her pocket, she led it to a wooden door on the side, opened the door, and turned sideways to let Mo Yuanyuan in.
"How's it going here?"
Mo Yuanyuan looked around, a wooden hard bed, a small table in the middle, two benches, and the only window was pasted with yellow paper, which made the light in the room not very bright.
The woman walked quickly to the window, and with a brute force, she pushed the window open, and an orange-red afterglow immediately shone in, giving the room a hazy warmth.
"Yes, let's do it," Mo Yuanyuan looked at the window and nodded.
Seeing that she was satisfied, the woman smiled and walked to the door, "My name is Maggie, I'll bring you dinner when it's ready." ”
Mo Yuanyuan looked at the door that was about to close, and suddenly said, "If you see a man who has no tentacles like me, you must inform me, it is a murderer." ”
Maggie shuddered at her, "Oh, got it." ”
The door was closed, and Mo Yuanyuan remembered her scared look just now, and couldn't help but purse her lips and smile. (To be continued.) )
