Chapter Seven: The Turmoil in the Post House (I)

The carriage stopped at the door of the post house half an hour later, and after Mo Qinglan saw that Tu'an had handed over two ingots of silver to the post house, the post man pulled a smile and welcomed them in.

If you want to have a place to spend the night when you leave Chuzhuang, the only thing is the post house on the official road. Fortunately, this post house is remote, and in the past, except for messengers who sent letters and exchanged horses, there were few important officials who came and went.

This is also a big reason why Mo Qinglan wants to follow them, firstly, to save his leggiving, and secondly, to rest in a room for nothing. After recuperating her spirits tonight, she has to return to Chuzhuang and Snake Island, and if she doesn't confirm Qin Qian's safety, she can't leave to do her own thing with peace of mind.

When he went upstairs, Mo Qinglan carefully checked it and found that it seemed to be only the three of them tonight, and he was strangely lucky.

Yi Ding saw that there were a few green snakes in the snake basket that Tu An was carrying, but Mo Qinglan, who was dirty and couldn't see the smell of snakes, was a snake people, so he took a look and pulled the carriage to the stable.

Tuan asked for three rooms and asked for a hot bath for Mo Qinglan under Chu Sheng's instructions, and after half a month, Mo Qinglan finally took her first bath, and she was so tired that she almost fell asleep directly in the bathtub.

In fact, after she recovered from her injuries, she washed in the lake near the house on Snake Island once, but after experiencing the cold and soft seepage scene when several water snakes slid over her thighs, she never went into the water again.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and before Mo Qinglan could speak, Tu'an's voice came:

"Hey, my son-in-law asked me to bring you clothes, and I'm in."

After Tuan finished speaking, he pushed the door and walked in, only to see the hot air above the screen, through the screen only saw the blurred head shadow exposed by the edge of the bathtub, he took two steps to the screen, but listened to the other party's words without emotion "Put the clothes on the table, you go out."

"Who do you think you are, just because you want me to serve is not qualified......" Thinking of the snake that had been thrown in his face, Tuan retracted his footsteps and shouted without saying a word.

A sharp light burst through the air from behind the screen, brushing his neck, only to hear the ding, and the second half of Tuan's words fell into his stomach.

He placed his clothes lightly on the table and tiptoed out. Glancing at the sharp dagger on the door, he swallowed his saliva and closed the door, and sighed against the door, only to realize that he was sweating profusely and his hands trembled slightly.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Mo Qinglan shook his head and stood up from the bathtub, the crescent moon jade hanging from the chest of the white snow muscle exuded a radiant brilliance. The candlelight flickered and blurred the face in the mist, but it outlined the bumpy figure very attractively, and only a scar more than two inches long on the back made the scenery worse.

A pair of jade walked out of the screen barefoot, Mo Qinglan looked at the crescent white robe on the table, stretched out his hand, rotated his feet half a circle from the same place, and the clothes were put on neatly, slightly loose, but it also fitted.

The clothes with good texture have a faint fragrance of dragon scales (2), and when you smell it, you can know that it is a man's clothes, Mo Qinglan understood after thinking about it.

She walked to the bronze mirror, and lowered the coiled wet hair, vaguely outlined in the misty yellow lens, only the apricot eyes crystal moon shot Han Jiang was looking through the bronze mirror.

The corner of the bronze mirror is shining the bloody clothes on the stool, revealing a section of earthy yellow envelope......

The hall was empty, and a table on the left side was full of wine and food, and as soon as Chu Sheng sat upright, he looked up and saw Tu An walking down with a resentful face.

"What have you been wronged again? A half-dead snake can scare you silly, and it seems that I am too good to you on weekdays. ”

Chu Sheng said, Qingzhu threw the snake unintentionally, but he didn't expect his own slave to still hold grudges, and he was still too indulgent on weekdays.

"Childe, this guy is acting too perversely, I kindly went in to give him clothes, and was almost killed by him."

Tuan said with a bitter face, thinking of the green dagger pierced the door, and his neck was cold.

Chu Sheng put down the wine glass in his hand and said unhappily: "I asked you to put down your clothes and leave, did you go to do something else?" ”

Tu An only thought that Qingzhu was a man, so when Chu Sheng handed him his clothes, he specially instructed.

Seeing the picture of Anxin's emptiness, Chu Sheng's face darkened.

Tu An also felt that he had run into an evil in the past two days, he had followed Chu Sheng since he was a child, and he had never experienced any major events in life and death. One day repeatedly planted on a person who didn't know the origin, and Qingzhu made him instinctively feel dangerous.

"Master, we've been delaying here for too long, and the other side must have already found out about the scheme. Why don't we leave at night, anyway, we don't really buy snakes ...... anyway. ”

Tuan leaned his head over, and seeing that Chu Sheng was displeased, he quickly diverted the topic. Although he didn't understand what the big deal was with a man's body, even if he looked at it, the best figure in the world was sitting in front of him.

Chu Sheng didn't speak, his knife-like face suddenly exuded a fierce look, his wrist struck, the wine glass spun rapidly, Tu An quickly closed his eyes, and the whole person froze in place, thinking that he had said the wrong thing, Chu Sheng wanted to punish him.

Hearing the sound of whirring and painful screams behind him, Tuan turned around and looked, and his hands immediately covered his face in fright and shouted:

"Ah......h

Mo Qinglan, who was holding an envelope upstairs and preparing to open it, heard the screams downstairs, opened the door and rushed out.

Snakes, hundreds of poisonous snakes, were swimming in through doorways and windows, blood-red letters reflecting bloodthirsty coldness under the lanterns. Snakes surrounded the two downstairs in all directions, and some even swam up the stairs.

The people at the inn are nowhere to be found.

"Master, master, are you alright?" When Mo Qinglan looked at the situation in the field, he heard Tu'an's voice sound again.

Chu Sheng, who was attacking the poisonous snake with the cups and dishes on the table just now, was bitten on the bare part of his right foot for a while, and suddenly a burning pain spread rapidly along the wound.

He hurriedly sealed the acupuncture points near his bare feet with his hands to reduce the spread of snake venom.

Tu An looked up and inspected upstairs, and when he saw Mo Qinglan, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to say hello, but he didn't expect Mo Qinglan to turn around and enter the house.

"No cowards." Tuan thought that Mo Qinglan was going to escape, and scolded hatefully. Looking at Chu Sheng, who was sitting on the stool, he grabbed another stool and threw it at the snakes, and when they were slow, he quickly squatted down and forcibly pulled Chu Sheng on his back.

"Master, even if you fight for my little life, I will take you out today." Tuan said firmly, his eyes revealing his determination to protect the Lord to the death.

Chu Sheng clenched the few chopsticks in his hand and looked around with heavy eyes.

The cobra that was eyeing the tiger at the moment when Tu'an got up with Chu Sheng on his back, suddenly several attacked at the same time, and when Tu'an opened his legs to dodge, Chu Sheng's chopsticks in his hand shot towards the mirror snake with a fierce killing momentum.

At that time, there was a gust of wind above his head, the cool hair on the sleeves of the white robe brushed his face, and the fragrance of dragon scales mixed with the cold body fragrance of the woman faintly poured into his nose, and his hand shook, and he was in a trance for a while.

(1) Note: Due to the limited cost of financial arrangements for the expenditure of the station, and the actual cost is huge, in order to ensure the normal operation, the early Tang Dynasty was generally presided over by the local wealthy households, and appointed as the post general or catch the post ("catch" that is, to master, preside), responsible for the management of the station, the repair of the building, reception and communication work and the submission of its monthly report, and to make up for the loss of the post station. However, some nimble generals take advantage of the social interaction of the museum to engage in commercial activities, which can not only achieve the purpose of "making up for losses with business", but also be profitable.

(2) Marking: incense name. Song Hongshu "Incense Spectrum Leaf Fragrance": "That is, the thin incense, its fragrance is especially better than the fragrance, and it is also called the dragon scale incense." ”
