Zhao Rui and Arjuna entered the inn, only to learn that the shopkeeper was a Song man, who had escaped from the hooves of the Yuan army, and got on the ship all the way to Angkor.

After asking Zhao Rui and the others about the current situation in the Southern Song Dynasty, he couldn't help but sigh and said that he was afraid that his business would be affected in the future.

Zhao Rui asked in surprise: "What, you are still doing business in Angkor now?" ”

"Not really! Now the inn is just a place to stay, and the house in Angkor is very cheap, and opening an inn, although you don't earn much, you can also have a good meal. But you don't do business, what are you doing in Angkor? ”

It's no wonder that the innkeeper asked, although there are not many Song people, but if one comes, it must be doing business, and doing business in Angkor is very profitable these years.

Basically, the Song Dynasty is now at the peak of the handicraft industry, and there are many things that Angkor can't make, such as the ground paving that is more popular among the Angkor people, which is the straw mat that was transported from the Southern Song Dynasty for thousands of miles.

Unexpectedly, although Angkor has a relatively large population, it is still relatively backward in production and processing.

"I am an emissary, who has come to visit the King of Angkor." Zhao Rui said with a smile.

"Yikes! It turned out to be a senior official of the imperial court, what a disrespectful and disrespectful! ”

may be because it is convenient to do business, the shopkeeper suddenly became enthusiastic about Zhao Rui, and served tea to the two and chatted non-stop.

The shopkeeper thought that Zhao Rui was a big official of the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Rui did not refute it, after all, he also carried the identity of the prince of the Song Dynasty.

Since he talked about King Angkor, the shopkeeper was also interested, and then told Zhao Rui and the others a legend about King Angkor.

It is said that there is a golden pagoda in the king's dormitory, and the king will go to the golden pagoda every day to rest, saying that there is a hydra spirit in the tower, which is the guardian god, the goddess, and the king must first mate with the snake spirit, and only when the second watch day can he come out and sleep with his wife and concubine, if the goblin does not appear, then the king's death time will come, and if the king does not go to the golden tower, there will be disasters.

"And that kind of thing?"

Zhao Rui was surprised when he heard it, but he only thought that it was just a religious situation.

Regarding the royal etiquette, the shopkeeper couldn't say why, but said a little more about the customs and customs, such as the people here don't wear shoes, the rich people even wear collars for their slaves, and so on.

In the end, I took special care of it, saying that the Angkor people originally respected the people of the Song Dynasty very much, but as the people of the Southern Song Dynasty came to do business in recent years, and they even had a group of people acting as translators, many people also made up their minds about the money of the Song people.

At night, the two opened a room to rest, because Zhao Rui learned that they all slept on bamboo mats in Angkor, so there was no difference between opening one and two rooms.

Ooh!

Although they were mentally prepared, the two of them were still shocked when they entered the room.

This room can be described as a house with four walls, this is an inn, but it is not a building, but a small thatched house enclosed, the earthen walls that have not undergone much care are obviously very primitive, Zhao Rui is also the first time to live in such a house, the straw mats laid on the ground in the house, there is no furniture like tables, chairs and benches at all.

The large bamboo mat on top of the straw mat is also considered a bed.

Living in such a simple room, Zhao Rui felt like a primitive person, looked at Xiao Yi apologetically, and felt that she had suffered with him when she came out.

However, Xiao Yi didn't have a particularly big reaction, looking left and right, as if she was curious about everything about Angkor.

Because of the habit of mixed bathing here, Zhao Rui deliberately asked the shopkeeper to arrange a place to take a bath, so there is now this room close to the water room.

The so-called water room is nothing more than a well, and the outside is a small room surrounded by a dense fence, mainly to prevent small animals from falling into it and polluting the drinking water source, and it is usually locked.

Zhao Rui looked at the key in his hand, it was no different from the one used in the Southern Song Dynasty, I am afraid that this lock was also imported from the Southern Song Dynasty.

The room is stuffy and unbearable, and the air is stuffy with a stuffy earthy smell, which is indeed not comfortable, and now it is the seventh and eighth months of the lunar calendar of the Song Dynasty, and it is also the rainy season in Southeast Asia, the water vapor is steaming, and the hot flashes are unbearable.

Zhao Rui took the key to take a bath first, and poured a scoop of water in the water room, but he always felt that it was not cool, at this time Zhao Rui also understood why the locals would take a bath, and it is estimated that such weather can only be soaked in cold water for a while, in order to really eliminate the heat.

If Cochin still has some tropical rainforest climate, then Angkor's location in the plains is really hot, and Zhao Rui deeply misses modern air conditioning at this moment.

Zhao Rui was not happy to wash, so he returned to the room, handed the key to Xiao Yi, and asked her to wash.

Lying on the bamboo mat, Zhao Rui couldn't fall asleep over and over, so he simply studied the talisman.

The fire talisman that I learned last time was followed by a meditation talisman, and Zhao Rui didn't think it was useful before, so he didn't learn it, but now it's time to learn him.

Perhaps because of the accumulation of a long time, Zhao Rui's Taoist mind method has improved imperceptibly, so this time it is easy to master the meditation talisman without any obstacles.

As Zhao Rui's fingers finished writing the last stroke in mid-air, and the effect of the meditation talisman worked, Zhao Rui suddenly felt a burst of coolness oozing out of his heart, and his heartbeat was much slower than usual.

The ancients did not deceive me, and their hearts were calm and naturally cool, perhaps it is a truth.

A moment later, Xiao Yi also returned to the room, perhaps because she had taken a bath, and the air was filled with her unique fragrance.

Xiao Yi lightly got on the other side of the bamboo mat and lay down, it is estimated that Xiao Yi is not used to the stuffy environment here, and she can't sleep after turning and turning.

Zhao Rui suggested: "In addition to sleeping in clothes, you can also feel the coolness of some bamboo mats." ”

"Oh, good."

There was a sound of clothes squirming in the dark, and Zhao Rui was already asleep comfortably because of the cold air in his heart.

But Xiao Yi is not much better, except that her clothes are just a little colder.

Early in the morning, Zhao Rui woke up from his sleep, and suddenly felt that he was holding a person in his arms, it was Xiaoyi, who was sleeping sweetly.

She didn't know when she got into Zhao Rui's arms, probably because Zhao Rui used the meditation talisman, her body was cold, and Xiao Yi couldn't leave after she didn't want to get close in her sleep.

Xiao Yi curled up in Zhao Rui's arms, just wearing bandeau pants, her smooth and white calves were shining in the morning light, Zhao Rui's hand holding her was printed on her delicate and delicate back, and the tentacles were soft and smooth.

Zhao Rui couldn't help but feel that his breathing was heavier, his body only moved slightly, and Xiao Yi in his arms was awakened.

"Ah......h

Seeing such an ambiguous posture, Xiao Yi immediately blushed, but she didn't mean to leave, but hid her fiery pretty face in Zhao Rui's arms.

"Young master, I'll cook!"

Just when Zhao Rui's heart was ape, Xiao Yi jumped out of Zhao Rui's arms, and at the same time quickly put on a dress and escaped out of the door.

Xiao Yi kept blushing, and she didn't know how she could run into Zhao Rui's arms when she slept well at night.

After the two of them had breakfast and packed up, they walked towards the imperial city of Angkor.

Most of the people who buy and sell in the market are women, and since there are no tables, they spread a straw mat on the ground with goods to be sold.

Walking through the bustling crowd, the palace was close in front of him, and suddenly he heard a commotion on his side, Angkor was self-contained, Zhao Rui couldn't understand it, and Zhao Rui was still walking forward with his thoughts.

"Hey! Hold it! Say you, from the Song Dynasty! ”

Speaking Chinese was extremely blunt, thinking that he was calling himself, Zhao Rui stopped and turned his head to check, only to see five or six people half-fan-shaped around him, looking menacing.

"You Song man, you stole my things, hurry up and hand them over!"

Zhao Rui was stunned, what is the situation, is this what the shopkeeper said, the kind of Angkor people who specialize in pit the Song people?

Xiao Yi suddenly felt that it was not good, and loudly defended: "I was walking with my young master, when did I steal your things!" ”

"Hmph, quibble! You are a gang, see that you woman is white and pure, and you have done such a despicable thing, hand over my gold jewelry! ”

Zhao Rui and Xiao Yi put a wide cloth on their bodies for sun protection, and these Angkor people couldn't see if they had jewelry, but they just felt that most of the Song people wore gold jewelry, nothing more.

As soon as he heard about gold jewelry, Zhao Rui's face became wonderful, he didn't have anything else on him, but there was gold.

If it is said that ordinary people wear gold jewelry, then Zhao Rui is undoubtedly the ancestor of gold jewelry.

A large number of onlookers quickly gathered here, and five or six Angkor people on the opposite side did not give up, and looked like they were about to make a move.

Zhao Rui chuckled, playfully stretching out his wrist from under the wide cloth, revealing a large gold bracelet four fingers wide, with a thickness of more than one finger, which was terrifyingly thick.

"Is that what you're talking about?" Zhao Rui asked in public.

The current Angkor people were stunned because the size of the gold jewelry was greatly beyond their expectations.

"Or is it this?" Zhao Rui raised his other hand and asked.

Ooh! There was even one of the same!

The expressions of the Angkor people became more and more greedy, and they couldn't imagine that the Song people they met today were a little fat sheep!

"Or is it this?"

Zhao Rui ripped off the fabric, revealing the dog-headed gold necklace around his neck, with natural trachoma, glowing with golden light.

This time, not only were the Angkor people on the other side stunned, but all the onlookers also gasped, just because such necklaces were too rare.

The current Angkor people swallowed their saliva, and suddenly said with a cruel smile: "That's right, these three things are mine, hand them over quickly, otherwise you will feel good!" ”

His accomplices all smiled at the inevitability, the three pieces of jewelry were worth a fortune, and the sale was enough for them to squander for a few years, and the string of dog's head gold was even more superb, maybe they could change their official positions and play with them.

"You're not telling you a lot!"

Xiao Yi was anxious, and said loudly: "These jewelry were originally my son-in-law's, you are lying to good people!" ”

Seeing that Xiao Yi was angry, Zhao Rui pulled her to his side and comforted her softly: "Okay, it's just a group of scoundrels, why bother to explain it to them." ”

This group of people is also a habitual offender, confirmed the target, and immediately pretended to start the performance.
