Chapter 9 Mianzhu Post House

Mianzhu is located in the north of Shudu, the territory of the ancient Shu aborigines, after Du Jiameng established the country of Tho, brought some people and horses to pass through this place, some people stayed, and began the exchange activities between Mianzhu and the outside world.

From the map, the Shu Kingdom seems to be very large, but this big is a large water. Because Shu is mountainous, most of the territory is blocked by mountains, resulting in many places can not become a city, most of the Shu people still live in the deep mountains, in addition to these people, the Shu people recorded in the household registration are afraid that there are only about forty or fifty thousand households.

After a day's journey, the sky gradually darkened, and the five of them finally entered Mianzhu City before it was completely dark.

Mianzhu City occupies a small area, but the terrain is dangerous, and the soldiers must fight, and it is the last fortress to attack Shudu; If this place falls, then Shu is equivalent to a naked woman, and can only be disposed of by the enemy.

"Is there a place to stay?"

Looking at the Mianzhu that could almost see the north gate of the city as soon as he looked up, Zhaoyun was a little uneasy, at best, it was just a tribe or village with a relatively large layout, and it was far away from the county seat!

Moreover, I heard what Invincible just said that there are only about 2,000 households in Mianzhu City, and if you want to recruit soldiers, there are only more than 1,500 people at most.

Therefore, there is no problem in saying that Shu is a tribal federation, because the vast majority of soldiers are still selected from the tribe.

Wubian hurriedly stepped forward to cater to him: "Boss, rest assured, although there is no wine shop similar to Qin in this place, there is a post station, which specializes in exchanges between Tho and Shu!" ”

Zhaoyun nodded reassuringly, he had been running around for three days, if he could only lie on the ground in the city, it would be too miserable!

"I'm hungry, so let's eat by the way!"

Wuliang smiled: "The boss is wise, I know that my brothers are hungry!" ”

"That's it, I must be drinking the northwest wind now, I think the new boss is much more reliable than the previous boss!"

Invincible blushed when he heard this, and he wanted to kill his white-eyed wolf brother with a fist.

"Less poor mouth! Watch more, listen more and talk less outside, and when the time comes, if you talk too much and provoke any nobleman, I won't be able to save you! ”

"The boss taught me a lesson!"

Zhaoyun didn't expect the second and third to change it at all, if this oily tone could be changed, it wouldn't be so many people who died.

The post station is very simple, covering an area of less than three acres, two thin and inferior horses are tied to the side of the stable, Shu is mountainous, the horse does not work at all, these two old horses have long been useless, and have become decoration.

"Someone! Come out and pick up customers! ”

Invincible shouted at the door, and the sound was like a huge thunder, so frightened that the old birds outside the city flew in shock; In a moment, a middle-aged bureaucrat ran out of the post station, no, to be precise, he was pushed out of the house by an inexplicable force, and rolled down the stairs with a "gurgling".

A woman in the house shouted, "Don't drive that vixen away, don't come back to sleep!" ”

"It's all said that there are no vixens......" The post officer kneaded his ass and muttered wrongfully.

"Who was making a noise just now? The victim has suffered! ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw five people outside the door, the first one was black-faced and rough-haired, like the king of Hades, and he was not good at first glance, so he was so frightened that he quickly shut up and kept his long mouth: "I'll let you talk more!" I'll make you talkative! ”

Zhaoyun has met these four living treasures since today, and it is not unusual to see that the post official is stupid, and Yao asked, "Post officer, is there still a room?" ”

"Room? Oooh oh! It turned out to be a lodging house! Please please! ”

The post officer hurriedly came up and led the five people into the post house, with a smile on his face, and Zhaoyun was very unaccustomed to seeing it. However, this inn is really small, there are only two rooms in total. With the face of being the boss, Zhaoyun lives in one room by himself, and the other four living treasures live in one.

"Trouble the post officer to prepare some food, we haven't eaten for nearly a day!"

As soon as the post official received the money for the room, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he saw Zhaoyun suddenly asking for food: "I said son, where can I find you food this big night?" ”

Zhaoyun didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly stretched out his hand to the side of the burden, this guy's unspoken meaning, isn't it money?

"Oops!"

But he didn't want him to be careless, a few cases on the couch on the back of his hand knocked down, and the huge package fell to the ground, only to hear a few "crackling" sounds, and all the gold and brass in the bag rolled out, and "hulala" spilled on the ground!

"This ......"

The post officer's eyes are almost falling out, he has grown so big, when has he seen so much money? Who would have thought that this little doll would not only have four bodyguards when she went out, but also brought so much real gold!

Zhaoyun hurriedly grabbed a piece of copper from the ground and threw it in the post officer's hand: "Take it and get some food, go up next door first!" The men next door are talkative, and they will bring it to me when they are full! ”

It wasn't until the brass fell into his hand that the post officer reacted, said yes again and again, and slipped out as if he had fled, leaving Zhaoyun alone to pack up the things on the ground.

Zhaoyun looked at his departing back, feeling uneasy, and muttered: "Let this guy see it, I don't know if anything will happen......"

But it was said that the post officer escaped from Zhaoyun's room with two ingots of brass, and walked in the corridor in fear; Seeing so much money still can't make him feel relieved, you must know how many years he has eaten as a little post official to only have fifty taels of gold?

Suddenly, a slender wrist as white as a green onion stretched out from the darkness, grabbed the post officer's ear and scolded: "Idiot! Where have you gone? I said you had a vixen outside, why did you run away? Is it a lack of heart? ”

"Yo yo! Lady Lady light, these are human ears, not pig ears! ”

The woman walked out of the darkness slowly, tall and tall, completely incompatible with the short and fat officer, the appearance was mediocre, but there was also a thirty-like appearance, the hair was rough, and it could not be maintained, except for a pair of skillful hands that were as clean as silk, everything else could only be said to be mediocre.

The woman's name is a witch, and she is the wife of a post officer.

The witch puffed up and put the post officer down, and was about to scold, but the boss whose eyes suddenly opened opened scolded, snatched the two ingots of brass from the post officer's hand and scolded: "Idiot, you still dare to hide money!" Explain quickly, is it used to keep the vixen money? ”

"Shhh Be quiet! The post officer's fat face leaned over and snatched the brass from Wu's hand, "This is given by a son who stayed there just now, let me prepare dinner!" ”

"Childe? By whom? The lich twisted the waist of the water snake and sneered, "How long has it been since there have been nobles in this Mianzhu County, and you don't have any points in your heart?" Where is the son who raises his hand to give such a big two ingot of brass? ”

"I really didn't lie to you!" The post officer said with a smile, "That boy is a rich and noble family at first glance, the first time he went out, the family prepared four bodyguards and a lot of money for him, I just took a cursory look, there must be fifty taels of gold!" ”

"Fifty taels of gold?" Wu looked at the post officer in surprise, and quickly covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound, but he still couldn't hide his excitement, and said excitedly: "Then what are you waiting for?" Grab it! Grab it! ”

The post officer scolded: "Phew! You're saying it so easily! The boy has fine skin and tender meat, but the four men are not a good thing at first glance! Combined, you and I are probably no match for that! ”

"Fool! Who told you to use the strong one? Wu smiled, "Didn't you just say that you were going to cook for them?" After the meal is made, put some ecstasy in it, put them all down, and if you raise your hand and take it again, won't the fifty taels of gold be successful? ”

The post officer hurriedly said: "Fart! Tomorrow morning people get up and find that the gold is gone, so they can't find you and me? Do you think fifty taels of gold can be squandered for a lifetime? When the time comes, that boy will gather the family to clean us up, and wait for you to die! ”

Indeed, fifty taels of gold is not much, and this gold must be mixed with brass, and the amount is not high, so it is okay to squander it, but if you expect fifty taels of gold to eat for a lifetime, it is undoubtedly a fantasy.

But Wu is obviously a woman who sees money, and fifty taels of gold can almost make her crazy! He said again: "Listen to me, after you put them down, you took the money, and the next day they asked you to deny you!" said that we have recently made trouble with bandits in the mountains, but it was the bandits who stole it! ”

"This ...... People are not stupid, they are dizzy after eating our food, how can they believe this side of the story? ”

Wu hated iron and said: "Stupid! In the wine! When the time comes, they will say that the wine is strong, and they themselves will be drunk, won't it be? ”

"This ...... Almost! You'll have to come to us then! ”

Wu angrily shouted: "What a pig brain! …… Let's do it, if we don't do it, we will directly kill that boy and blame the four bodyguards! Let's just say that those four bodyguards wanted to make money and kill them! Even if the son's family checks it out, they won't be able to find us! ”

The post officer suddenly realized, and clapped his hands again and again: "The concubine is really a clever plan!" Without further ado, I'm going to prepare dinner! ”

"Wait!"

Seeing that the post officer was leaving, Wu suddenly drank him, the post officer didn't know why, but Wu hid a large copper ingot from his hand, left a small one, and nodded with satisfaction: "This money is enough, you go!" ”

Looking at the satisfied Wu who left, the post officer was dumbfounded and wanted to scold, but when he thought of his ears, he couldn't help but droop his head.

"If you are greedy, you will be! Sooner or later, you'll have to carry it on this! ”
