Chapter 15: Innkeeper

It is said that Meng Yao has arrived at a suburban inn with the carriage.

After the coachman parked the carriage at the inn, Wu Mengyao immediately got out of the carriage.

She thought a lot along the way. Who is this coachman? For what purpose did you save her? Where are you going to take her?

From the beginning of stepping into ancient times, the post station soldiers, Hancheng boatmen, and Chu State boatmen, these strange ancient people in strange regions, their hideous faces make people's hearts palpitate, and she will not trust anyone.

When the coachman saw her get out of the carriage, he untied the ropes tied to the two horses, handed them to Xiao Er of the inn and sent them to the stables, and led Wu Mengyao into the gate of the inn.

"Hostess, open the best studio." The coachman said to the proprietress .

Sure enough, I didn't have a good heart. Wu Mengyao thought to herself, thinking about how to get out after a while.

"Okay. Brother Da Mao, I also brought a distinguished guest today. The proprietress replied, and as soon as she heard it, she knew that the coachman was a regular customer here. Wu Mengyao knew that the coachman's name was Da Mao.

As he spoke, he walked out of the counter, took Wu Mengyao's backpack from the coachman, and said to Wu Mengyao: "Miss is really beautiful, come with me."

"Lady, where is this?" Wu Mengyao asked.

"This is the Six Cities. You guys just came from Shucheng, right? The proprietress said.

"Oh, probably." Wu Mengyao was noncommittal, because Shucheng and Liucheng were not the cities of Wu Kingdom, she was not familiar with them, so she couldn't associate them with the place names of modern cities, and she couldn't determine their location.

This inn is a two-story wooden room, below is the dining hall, the second floor is the guest room, the proprietress took Wu Mengyao to the innermost room on the second floor.

Pushing the room open, it was a large room with a large wooden bed, a wooden table, and two chairs.

"Do guests want to take a bath? There is a special bath outside. The proprietress asked as she handed over the key to the copper padlock on the door to Wu Mengyao.

"Okay, please take me there." Wu Mengyao said. With that, she opened her backpack, took her underwear and bath towel, locked the door and followed the proprietress to the bathroom.

After taking a bath, Meng Yao changed into simple clothes, went back to the room to make up, and heard the proprietress knock on her door again: "Guest, Da Mao invites you to go down to dinner."

Wu Mengyao was hungry for a day, and thought to herself about your wolf ambitions, so after eating, she promised, "Okay, I'll come down immediately."

Wu Mengyao walked down the stairs to take a look, and saw that the coachman was waiting there with a few men, and when she saw that she could get down, the coachman greeted her and led her over to sit down.

The people at this table were obviously all friends of the coachman, and after seeing Wu Mengyao, they were so surprised by Wu Mengyao's beauty that they quieted down, and they didn't dare to say anything.

At this time, Chen Damao said: "I am a rough person, I will toast everyone first." Today I met a sister on the road, who, like all of us, is a poor and suffering person. From today on, she is my Chen Damao's own sister, and if you are willing to treat her as your own sister, you will drink this glass of wine with me. As he spoke, he picked up a glass of wine and drank it.

As soon as Chen Damao said this, the atmosphere became lively. Because when they saw Wu Mengyao just now, everyone was shocked, and they didn't dare to imagine that they would become friends with such a beautiful and noble woman, let alone call them brothers and sisters.

One of the thin men stood up with a wine glass and said to Wu Mengyao: "Miss, just now our boss Brother Chen Damao has already told us what happened to you, and we all sympathize with your misfortune. You have no home, no relatives, as long as you don't dislike our group of coachmen who pull goods and deliver people, our brothers at this big table are your own brothers and sisters, if anyone dares to bully you, we will fight with him. ”

When Meng Yao heard this, tears burst out of her eyes, and she couldn't cry. It can be said that from childhood to adulthood, she has lived a carefree life, and even traveled to ancient times, Qu Hao sheltered her from the wind and rain, and cared for her. But the two boatmen of the Chu State put her in a dangerous situation of being isolated and helpless, and her life was hanging by a thread. When the coachman rescued her from the clutches of those two men, she thought it was just a different way of being killed. I never thought that Chen Damao and these strangers were so upright and icy spirited, which made her both ashamed and moved.

She stood up from her seat, bowed deeply to everyone, and said, "Brother Chen, brothers and sisters, the little woman's name is Wu Mengyao, and her home is far overseas. A few days ago, I accompanied my husband to do business here, but I didn't expect to meet a bad man, kill my husband, and want to hold the little woman hostage. Thanks to Brother Chen's rescue in the sea of fire, the little woman will never forget your life-saving grace. My brothers and sisters regard the little girl as my sister, and the little woman is very moved, and since then the little girl has so many relatives in the world, and she will never be lonely again, thank you. ”

As he spoke, he picked up a glass of wine and said, "I, Wu Mengyao, have made this glass of wine, and from now on you are all my relatives, as long as there is a need, I will do my best."

Everyone was very happy to see Meng Yao say this, and they all stood up and toasted together.

After everyone sat down, Chen Damao said, "Just now you said that your name is Wu Mengyao, and I will also introduce us." Most of our coachmen are from the Chen State, and a few days ago they delivered people to this place in the Chu State, and today because there were two guests who went to the river to take a boat, they met you and the two gangsters on the empty return trip. “

Chen Damao then introduced everyone: "My name is Chen Damao, just call me Damao." The brother who spoke just now is called Ji Zhi, and the one sitting next to him is my own brother Chen Ermao, and the next three are Zheng Guoren, the first one is Zheng Rong, and the one sitting next to Zheng Rong is his wife Li Hao, and the last one is Li Cang, Li Cang is Li Hao's brother. ”

Meng Yao stood up and greeted these brothers one by one, feeling very warm in her heart, these uneducated coachmen, their eyes revealed simplicity and kindness.

Chen Ermao asked the dream ballad; "Just now my brother said that those two gangsters tied you to your shoulders, who are they?"

As soon as Meng Yao heard this question, tears rolled in her eyes again, this painful experience was a pain in the skin.

She relieved her nerves and talked about the experience she and Qu Hao had from Hanyue to after getting off the boat, and when she talked about the process of Qu Hao being pushed down the river by gangsters, her tears couldn't stop flowing.

Seeing her so sad, Chen Damao comforted her and said: "Sister Mengyao, the incident has happened, it is irreparable, you mourn and change, don't be too sad."

Several other people also comforted her, telling her to stabilize first, these two boatmen will not be difficult to find, and in the future, there will always be a day to avenge you.

Meng Yao nodded with tears in her eyes, silently thinking in her heart: There will always be a day of revenge.

After appeasing Meng Yao, everyone began to discuss tomorrow's affairs. Last time, they sent people from Chen to Chu State, this time they sent a batch of rhinoceros skins from Chu State to Zheng State, and now the goods are also ready, just waiting for early tomorrow morning.

After dinner, they each went back to their rooms to rest.

Meng Yao decided to go to Zheng Guo with them, and for her, the real test was about to begin, and she would step into the circle of ancient life alone, integrate and adapt to ancient life.

Since when they left the car that day, the two of them were packed separately according to their weight, Meng Yao put the bag on her back in the room and rearranged it to see what else she had with her. The result of the collation is:

A few bags of compressed biscuits and chocolates, a set of large double field compressible down sleeping bags that have not been used, 500 boxes of antibiotic pills with the outer packaging removed, ten sets of underwear and cotton cloth of ten meters, two sets of clothes bought in Hanyue, one of which is still the men's clothing worn by Qu Hao; Two sets of cashmere sweaters and two sets of autumn pants for men and women, tissues and some portable feminine hygiene products, two mobile phones, one of which is the latest projection phone, two Bluetooth speakers, and two solar mobile phone power banks. There is also a night pearl that Qu Hao used as a toy for her, this night pearl emits a pink light, which is extremely dazzling, and now it has become her most valuable baby, and it is also her last guarantee.

That's all she has now.
