Vol. 2 Tokyo Hua Menglu Chapter 34 Chance Encounter in the Journey (I)

Although Wuqiu Town is only a small town with a population of only a few thousand, it is located at the junction of Gyeonggi Road and Hebei and Shandong roads, so it is very lively on weekdays, with endless traffic and pedestrians. Especially the government-run Wuqiu Station in the town, there are almost constant customers all year round, even in this hot summer season, there are still people who come here from time to time to stay in the hotel.

After a day's journey, Sun Tu and Ya'er saw that it was not too early, so they stayed in this post station. There was the money that Chao Gai gave him when he left, and the money he found from Du Hu and the others after killing them that night, so that Sun Tu didn't have to worry about the money at all, and when he entered the inn, he directly asked for a room to rest.

The shopkeeper and the man of this government-run post station were all knowledgeable, and did not despise them because of their young age, let alone inquire more, and settled them down very politely, and then served them with hospitality, and delivered the famous local dishes directly to the room.

After a few days of running, Ya'er, who had just recovered, was really tired, and went to bed early after eating some food. It was Sun Tu, who remembered his thoughts at this time in the dark sky outside the window.

He is thinking about his future, if his memory is good, ten or twenty years later, the thriving Song Dynasty will face a catastrophe, and Shandong, which is in the north, will inevitably bear the brunt, and how should he deal with it? Shouldn't you leave this place of right and wrong earlier and run to Jiangnan to escape the impending military disaster?

But after thinking about it for a long time, Sun Tu didn't make up his mind after all. After all, he is just a powerless ordinary man now, and it is not so easy to escape from Shandong. What's more, I don't know how many difficulties and variables I will encounter when I go to Bianliang this time. Maybe you can only take one step at a time and follow the crowd.

Just when Sun Tu secretly sighed and felt a little weak, there was a sudden noise outside, which made his brows furrow immediately. The upper room that I chartered is not just one room, but a whole cross-courtyard, and it stands to reason that there shouldn't be such a disturbance outside, and it's not good to wake up Ya'er.

Just as he wanted to go out to see what was going on, there was a knock on the door outside. With doubts and dissatisfaction, Sun Tu walked out and opened the courtyard door with a dark face, and then saw the post man standing there with a ashamed face, bowing and saluting again and again: "Guest, I'm really sorry, your upper room has been asked to go by these officials, so I can only wronged you two to move a place." As he spoke, he stepped aside slightly, so that Sun Tu could see the appearance of the four or five people behind him.

These are several richly dressed travelers, in the middle is a handsome, but somewhat pale young man, next to him is a little boy, and several other men who look like domestic slaves are also looking at Sun Tu with condescending eyes.

"What is this? There's a first-come, first-served everything, right? Sun Tu said dissatisfiedly: "I have already paid for the store." ”

Before those people could speak, the guy had already hurriedly explained: "The guest doesn't know, they all have a post ticket in Beijing, and the villain must obey the instructions and invite Haihan." As he spoke, he bent down again and again, and put on a pleading appearance.

Sun Tu realized that this latecomer actually has a background in the government, and he can eat and live for nothing in various post stations across the country with post coupons, and he can also get the best hospitality. This is the strict hierarchy in ancient times, no matter how much money there is, it is nothing in front of the official family.

Since the rules are like this, Sun Tu doesn't want to cause more trouble, so he plans to take a step back. But before he could speak, Xu saw that he was moving slowly, and a man stepped forward and shouted: "What are you still rubbing, hurry up." If you dare to drag it out again, be careful to take you into the government as a villain for punishment! ”

Seeing that the other party was so arrogant, Sun Tu's heart was also angry. But at this time, the young man spoke: "Tong Zhuang must not be rude, and this little brother did not say that he would not give in." Saying that, he also bowed his hand to Sun Tu: "Little brother, forgive me, I really feel unwell and need to recuperate, so I ......"

Sun Tu didn't expect this master to be so easy to speak, but his mentality calmed down, so he nodded and said, "Since there is such a rule, you should give it up to you." But please wait a moment for me to wake up my sister-in-law. As he spoke, he took a deep look at the young man again, and found that the other party's face was indeed not good, and he seemed to be sick.

Seeing that the two sides had reached a settlement, the guy finally put his mind at ease, and quickly followed Sun Tu into the house with a smile, helping him sort out his belongings, and at the same time kept thanking him, saying that today's store money must be returned in full.

When Sun Tu took the package and called Ya'er, who was dazed, to go out, he passed by the official guests who were really staying at him. He immediately found that the young man was a little weak in his steps, and if it weren't for the support of someone beside him, he was afraid that he would have fallen.

It seems that this person is indeed very sick, and it is reasonable to have an upper room to rest and recuperate. When Sun Tu thought of this, his anger disappeared by half, and he moved to a guest room not far away with his companion to settle down again.

After that, he didn't say anything all night, and slept until dawn, when Sun Tu was woken up by the sudden sound of quarrels outside. As soon as he heard the movement, he unconsciously frowned deeply, because the movement actually came from the upper room where he had sold last night.

Looking at the sleeping little girl, Sun Tu didn't wake her up, and got up and walked out of the door to see what was going on. When I came outside, I saw one of the powerful slaves holding the collar of the innkeeper and shouting: "Okay, you still dare to shirk responsibility when such a thing happens!" My young master was fine when he came here last night, why is he unconscious today? There must be something wrong with the food in your store! ”

As soon as he heard this, the shopkeeper was even more frightened, and shouted to the sky: "The guest is wronged, the little one is too late to serve you, how dare you hurt the distinguished guest." The food in our post house has always been clean and clean, and the children are not deceived, so how can there be any problems? ”

"You still dare to fight back, I'll hit you with something that can't open your eyes!" Seeing this, Haonu was even more angry, and immediately slapped him over, directly knocking the shopkeeper's fan to the ground.

And the few guys in front of him were even more frightened at this time, and they didn't even step forward to help their shopkeeper fall to the ground. Seeing that these guys were so deceitful, not only threatening but also making moves, Sun Tu couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately stepped forward: "What are you guys doing?" Your young master was not in good health when he came last night, and I can testify to this, but it has nothing to do with this station! ”

"Hey, it's you kid again, do you also want to be taken by us to see the official?" The slave recognized Sun Tulai at once, and immediately threatened.

"I think it's you who are going to see the official, this is an official-run post station, you beat the people in the official mansion and dare to be so presumptuous!" Sun Tu replied without flinching, and then said, "Shouldn't your top priority now be to diagnose and treat your son-in-law?" What problem can be solved by arguing here? If he really has something to do, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of it! ”

"You ......" The slave was a little speechless when he heard this. At this time, the boy also walked into the courtyard and said, "Uncle Zhuang, what he said is good, let's hurry up and ask Lang Zhong to come and treat the young master." ”

Seeing that even the scholar in front of the young master said this, the rich slave didn't dare to entangle anymore, and immediately pointed to a guy and said: "You quickly invite Lang Zhong in the town to treat my young master, if you come late, be careful of your skin!" ”

The guy hurriedly agreed, and ran out as soon as he smoked. When it comes to the reputation of his own post station, he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

But when he came back soon after, his side was empty, and there was no doctor Langzhong with him, which made the shopkeeper a little anxious: "What about Doctor Liu?" ”

"It turns out that Dr. Liu was invited away yesterday, and now there is no one in the hospital to ......," the guy said helplessly.

At this moment, things are really out of control, and even the scholar who spoke for them as the shopkeeper of the post station no longer knows what to do. And those few slaves even took advantage of the topic to play: "Wow, you still dare to prevaricate us with such nonsense!" As he spoke, he wanted to step forward and make a move......
