Qi Ning kept going all the way, and at dusk, the clouds were thick, and in a moment it rained the size of beans.

It's going to rain, the mother wants to get married, this is also a helpless thing, fortunately, out of a road, there will be a tea shed on the side of the road, this kind of tea shed Qi Ning is seen a lot, some of the road sections that do not go to the village and do not have a store, there are often tea sheds to operate, in order to provide travelers with accommodation.

Qi Ning bolted his horse and entered the tea shed, it was already dark, there were lights lit inside, there were no guests, a fat man was sitting on a chair and sleeping soundly, and a guy on the side was bored and lazy lying on the table playing with the teacup, hearing the movement, the guy looked up and saw that the door curtain was opened, and hurriedly got up to greet him: "The guest officer wants to eat?" Seeing that Qi Ning was dressed up, his face turned cold again.

Qi Ning was dressed as a beggar disciple, his clothes were ragged, and he was drenched in heavy rain, he really looked quite embarrassed, he knew that guy's thoughts, so he naturally didn't care, shook the rain on his body, and said with a smile: "Little brother, help get some hot stomach filling, if you have wine, come some too." ”

The guy didn't move, and the fat man was also awakened, and when he opened his eyes and saw Qi Ning, he got up slowly, and said, "There is food, there is wine, as long as the silver is enough, how much you want." ”

Qi Ning didn't talk nonsense, he didn't have anything else on him, but he had enough silver, he took out the money bag from his arms, and threw a piece of broken silver on the table, the fat man saw it, and immediately smiled on his face, turned his head to look at the guy, and scolded: "Why don't you go and prepare food for the uncle, what are you doing there?" By the way, let's go to a basin of hot water to wash the uncle. ”

The guy hurriedly agreed, and the fat man took the silver in his hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle, later, the food and drink will be sent up immediately, the rain is pouring outside, and I am afraid that I will not be able to stop for a while, do you want to stay here for a night?" There are rooms at the back, which are simple but have no problem sheltering from the elements. ”

Qi Ning asked, "To the southeast of here, how far is the nearest city?" ”

"At least, there are forty or fifty miles of land." The fat man said, "It's already dark, and the uncle wants to rush over?" ”

Qi Ning thought to himself that forty or fifty miles is not close, the key is that the heavy rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and it is not appropriate to go through the rain, although this tea shed is simple, but it is not bad to rest for a night to recuperate, with his martial arts, he naturally will not worry that someone will plot against him, thought for a while, and said: "There is a horse outside, do you have horse material here?" ”

"Uncle, don't worry, the horse feed is sufficient, I'll go over to feed it immediately." The fat man also knew at this time that although he was dressed in rags, he was not a beggar passing by, and he was very enthusiastic.

"If you have work, then prepare a room, and I'll make up here for the night." Qi Ning said with a smile: "There are clean clothes, bring one to change, a lot of your silver." ”

The fat man didn't say a word, and immediately went to get a clean coarse cloth shirt, the guy brought hot water, Qi Ning washed his face, changed into clothes, and soon the guy brought wine and food, and the tea shed on the side of the road naturally didn't have much rich wine and food, but there was wine and meat, which was not bad.

Qi Ning was really a little hungry in his stomach, drinking and eating at the same time, a bowl of rice in his stomach, before he added a second bowl, he heard a sound behind him, looked back, only to see the door curtain was lifted, a tall figure came in from outside the door, the guy immediately greeted him, and asked, "Is the guest officer going to eat or stay?" ”

The man glanced around the room and said in a deep voice, "Get food first, the sooner the better." As he spoke, a man came in.

Qi Ning's pupils contracted slightly at this time, he knew that coincidences often happened in this world, but he didn't expect that some unbelievable coincidences would happen to him, the two people who came in from outside the door, he recognized it at a glance, and the tall man who came first was actually one of the Five Elements Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavenly Tower, and then it was Beitang Feng, the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty, who followed.

That night in Xiangyang, Beitangfeng and his party were besieged by the beggar gang Cao Wei and a group, and then there were assassins who wanted to put Beitangfeng to death.

The local government of Xiangyang and the Shenhou Mansion worked together to search for the whereabouts of Beitangfeng, but obviously did not find it, Qi Ning also thought that once Beitangfeng escaped from Xiangyang, he must go to Xiangyang to find his uncle Qu Yuangu, and use Xianyang soldiers and horses to compete for the throne of the Northern Han Emperor.

But Qi Ningwan didn't expect that these two people would appear here.

If you want to go to Xianyang, you naturally have to go to the northwest of Xiangyang, and the road that Qi Ning is traveling on now is to the southeast to Jianye, and the two directions happen to be diametrically opposed.

He didn't know how these two people could be here for a while, he just felt that there were no strange things in the world, and such an unbelievable coincidence would be encountered by himself.

Beitangfeng's face was a little pale, looking a little depressed, languishing, wearing a coarse cloth shirt, unkempt, no longer as radiant as he had been, and he didn't know whether he had fled for days to do this, or if he deliberately wanted to cover up, after entering the house, Beitangfeng was cautious, swept around, and stared at Qi Ning.

With Qi Ning's martial arts, if he really wants to make a move, he naturally has a great chance of winning against the Fire God Monarch, and it is not difficult to arrest these two people and bring them back to the capital, but Qi Ning has no intention of doing so, once Beitangfeng is really arrested, then a civil strife in the Northern Han Dynasty will disappear, which is not good for the Chu State.

Qi Ning remained silent and didn't look at them, just lowered his head to eat, Beitangfeng saw that Qi Ning was dressed ordinarily, looking like a wolf, so he was slightly relieved.

The fat man had already smiled and said, "What do the two guest officers want to eat?" Do you stay here at night? ”

"Let's get the food first, and don't talk about other nonsense." Seeing that Beitang Feng had already sat down at a table in the corner, Huoshenjun walked over and sat down, and instructed the fat man, "Bring ten catties of wine." ”

The fat man stammered: "Ten catties of wine? Guest, have you finished eating? ”

"Less nonsense." Huoshenjun said in a rough voice: "Uncle wants wine, you can just come up." ”

The fat man smiled and said, "Yes, yes." After hesitating for a moment, he smiled and said: "Uncle, our tea shed has rules, you have to pay for wine before you eat wine, you see?" ”

Huoshenjun opened his eyes wide, reached into his arms, took out a few times, came out empty-handed, and looked at Beitang Feng, but Beitang Feng shook his head, a little embarrassed.

He obviously deliberately wanted to hide his wealthy status, so he didn't wear any valuables on his body.

"Bring the wine first, it won't be less expensive for you anyway." Vulcan Jun looked at the fat man: "When the time comes, it will be doubled." ”

The fat man has been doing business all year round, and his ability to observe words and emotions is naturally extraordinary, and he has already seen it at this time, he smiled and said, "When is the time?" ”

Beitangfeng's face sank, and he couldn't help but scold: "Dog minion, so much nonsense, the last thing Lao Tzu lacks is silver, can you be missing silver?" ”

"Taking the silver is the uncle, my dog slave is doing small business, and I refuse to eat and drink for nothing." The fat man didn't have a good face, he turned around and glanced at the guy, the guy understood, and looked back, Qi Ning saw it in his eyes, but he didn't see it, just eat and drink by himself.

Beitang Feng fled in embarrassment these days, endured all the hardships, and held a belly of fire in his heart, at this time, seeing a small character who opened a tea shed dared to be so rude to himself, he was extremely angry in his heart, slapped the table, got up, and was about to scold, but Huo Shenjun reached out and grabbed Beitang Feng's wrist, Beitang Feng knew what Huo Shenjun meant, snorted coldly, and sat down.

Only then did the Fire God Monarch let go and looked at the fat man, and said, "Shopkeeper, as long as we have a hot meal, since we have promised to repay it twice, this account will not be ruined, you can rest assured." He spoke in a calm tone, clearly suppressing his anger.

Qi Ning knew in his heart that these two people fled all the way, in order to cover up their whereabouts, they could endure it, and they didn't dare to cause trouble easily.

"If you don't have any money, don't talk nonsense here." The fat man raised his hand and said, "Get out of here immediately." ”

Huo Shenjun's face sank, and he sneered: "No one dares to speak to me like this yet, if you are interested, hurry up and prepare wine and food to send over, maybe you can still live." ”

Seeing the fierce look on the tall man's face, the fat man took a step back and sneered: "Open the door to do business, no one has ever seen it, and I have seen more than you are arrogant." When he looked back, he saw that the guy had rushed out with a knife in his hand, and shouted, "Shopkeeper, they want to make trouble here, and they will cut them with a knife." "Stepped forward, stood next to the fat man, holding a big knife, but it was also menacing.

Qi Ning looked funny, thinking that there were ten more people, all with knives in their hands, and they were nothing in front of the Fire God Monarch.

Huoshenjun laughed suddenly, the sound was like a loud bell, the fat man and the guy couldn't help but retreat in fright, Huoshenjun slowly stood up, his eyes leaked a fierce light, a thunder sounded in the air, the sound shook the four wilds, Huoshenjun said coldly: "It seems that you really don't want to live." Slowly raising his hand, Qi Ning saw it out of the corner of his eye, frowning slightly, thinking that although this shopkeeper was snobbish, his sin was not to death, and he couldn't watch the Fire God Monarch kill people here.

He quietly reached into his arms, touched the cold blade, and at this time, he heard a gust of cold wind coming, several people looked at the curtain door, but saw that the curtain was opened, and another figure walked in slowly, seeing the scene in the house, the man didn't pay attention, walked to a table and sat down, raised his hand and put a long sword with a scabbard on the table, his expression was calm, he glanced at the fat man, and said, "Prepare wine and food to be delivered!" He threw a piece of broken silver on the table, glanced at the Fire God King again, and said, "The rest of the silver is their food money." ”

Qi Ning glanced at the man, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, secretly thinking that he should look at the yellow calendar more when he went out, what day is today, how can it be some unbelievable coincidences.
