"Huh~ Xu go, let's go to the inn in front of us to rest a little, the horses are tired, and it's not safe to travel at night." He hasn't been off the horse for a day on the weekend, although his body is good, but after a long time of bumps, he is also overwhelmed, for the sake of safety, he still takes the official road, and finally sees an inn, and can't help but speak.

Xu Qu also agreed very much in his heart, he had never been out of such a far door since he was a child, and he couldn't bear such a high-intensity rush at his age, so he hurriedly agreed, "The little one will go to the front to make arrangements first." Then he slapped the horse over the weekend and headed to the door of the inn.

When he arrived at the door on the weekend, Xu went to be the old shopkeeper of the head office in Luoyang City, with so many years of experience in handling things, he had quickly arranged everything, and after getting off the horse on the weekend, there were guys to lead the horse to the stable, and on the weekend only took the small bag containing silver taels from the horse, and walked into the inn.

The inn is very busy, all the way, this is the only one that the two of them have seen is still open, the guys are all spinning, the requirements of the guests are one after another, there are constantly guests leaving, there are also new guests coming, each is dusty.

He saw Xu go to greet him on the second floor, and when he arrived at the table, there were already a few plates of small dishes on it, and a pot of hot wine.

Xu went to see that the weekend came up, quickly patted the stool, let him sit down, and said, "Old shopkeeper, we are lucky, there is an ordinary empty room in the inn, full of wine and food, because there are robbers rampant around, the price is much higher than usual, we have to be more careful when we rush tomorrow." ”

Nodding on the weekend, he plans to pretend to be a down-and-out scholar tomorrow and travel with a servant, take the trail to Chang'an quickly, and give a small amount of money to solve the robbers, those robbers are forced by life, most of them are ordinary people, and they are generally not extremely vicious.

If you take the official road, although the possibility of encountering robbers is small, but if you really encounter it, most of them are people who seek money and kill people, he cherishes his life very much, so he comes up with this strategy, hoping to take the trail to have fewer accidents and quickly reach Chang'an.

After sitting down, he ate a side dish and chatted with Xu about the interesting things of the past 20 years.

Weekend is very fond of the history of the Tang Dynasty, after he got the "Skywalker" navigation, back to this era, for him is simply a favor of God, he has a strong desire to learn, a conversation to remember all the big things, anecdotes.

Just when the two of them were full of wine and food, there was a drunkard who staggered past the weekend, accidentally stumbled, fell next to the weekend, and his hand touched the package he put aside, making the sound of silver colliding, the weekend frowned secretly, stared at him, he seemed to have lost consciousness, lying straight on the floor, let the guy who came from behind carry him to the guest room, he thought to himself, it seems that he is also a guest staying here, but he has a long dream all night, and he will leave early tomorrow, and he can't see if he is deliberately tempting.

Early the next morning, I went with Xu on the weekend, used simple materials to make a little easier, prepared new fresh water and dry food, prepared to go out, and the clothes had already been changed, and asked the innkeeper to buy simple clothes, and when paying the rent, I didn't use silver, but paid a few copper coins, after all, silver was a rare commodity at that time.

went out to get the horses stored yesterday, and the two turned over and got on their horses, and continued to rush to Chang'an.

At the same time, there was also a drunk man yesterday, looking at him who didn't remember himself, but he remembered his appearance clearly on the weekend, and he was relieved to see this, and he understood the truth that wealth was not exposed, especially in this troubled world.

Today's weekend plan to take the trail, asked the innkeeper, because the surrounding area, dense woods, steep terrain, the official road is the most stable, but to detour a lot of detours, yesterday they traveled a third of the way overnight, there is not such a fast speed, listen to the shopkeeper, if it goes well, it will take at least 4 days to get to Xi'an, and then inquire about going to Ma Weiyi.

On the first weekend, I walked on the hill path that was quite stable, and there was nothing to do along the way, but my butt was shaken like a flower, and I didn't feel like I was my own, and I rested for the night by leaning on the tree.

The next day, he was riding a horse on a rugged mountain road, and not long after riding, he couldn't bear it, so he could only jump off the horse and walk with Xu Qu and the two of them.

It's a pity that the times are not good, there are a few strong men like farmers in the mountains and forests in front, and they are still holding farm tools in their hands, and when they saw the two of them coming over the weekend, they jumped out of the forest on the side and shouted, "Robbery!" ”

I couldn't smile bitterly on the weekend, and I also sighed at the difficulties of the people in the troubled times, many people had to come out to rob in order to support their families, and on the weekend I was going to let Xu go to give some money to pass the time, but then I thought that this might not be such a simple robbery on the surface, so I went up with Xu to meet it, instead of running on horseback.

After several people came face to face, the robbers saw that they were so cooperative and it was not easy to move, and it looked like the opening of the eldest brother, and said fiercely, "Hand over all the money on your body!" ”

I had been preparing for the weekend, and there were copper coins in several places on my body, so I pretended to be very distressed and took out half of the copper coins from my chest and handed them over, begging for mercy, "This is all the money I have, please let me and the little servants go." ”

Xu Qu also took out a few copper plates from his body, stepped forward and begged, "Please heroes, don't take away our horses, our family is the only one left to depend on each other." If it were given to you, we wouldn't be able to live. ”

When the robbers saw this scene, they looked at each other, and when they saw that they had taken out all the money on their bodies and given it to themselves, the clothes on their bodies were all sewn and mended, and they were embarrassed to search their bodies.

If it is a modern person, it will definitely sigh, this is a routine, but the ancient people were simple-minded, especially the common people, this trick did work, and the smaller robber among the few people couldn't help but speak, "Otherwise, you will leave some more entanglement, you are all poor people." ”

The two hurriedly pretended to be very distressed, each took out a little copper coin and handed it to them, and did not forget to say with a grateful face on the weekend: "You are really good people, thank you for leaving us horses to drive, it will be my fame in the examination, I must be diligent in serving the people, to repay your kindness." Then he continued to lead the horse.

The big brother-like robber looked suspicious, looked at the copper money in his hand, and always felt that something was wrong.

Soon I don't think about it, if I have the money in my hand, I can go and have a good meal! "Let's go, brothers, let's go drink!"

At this moment, there was a sudden smoke and dust in the distance, as if it was a cavalry, rolling in, only to see that the leader was a one-eyed shirtless man, followed by twenty cavalrymen, all of whom were equipped with standard equipment, and the cavalry who followed the big man was none other than the drunk man he had seen at the inn on the weekend!
