Chapter Forty-Seven: Staying (Monday for Recommendation, Collecting,)

As soon as Pang stepped out of the gate of the prefect's yamen, seven or eight sergeants immediately greeted him, led by a tall man with a terrifying scar on his face, and asked Shi Li: "My lord, it's not early now, let's find an inn to rest first!" ”

"Well, well! Let's find an inn to stay overnight! Pang Gang nodded and agreed, and then looked at the sky, it was about the afternoon Shen time, and it was impossible to rush back to Wanghai Fort now, so he had to find an inn to stay overnight and then set off tomorrow morning.

"Goo-goo-goo"

A cry came from his abdomen, and Pang Gang realized that he hadn't eaten for a long time, and that the cup of tea he had drunk in Wei Tongnian all day today was already so hungry that his front belly was sticking to his vest. Looking at the seven or eight sergeants next to them who were leading war horses, the red mandarin duck battle jackets and cotton armor on their bodies had been stained white by the heavy snow but were still standing upright, thinking that they had also accompanied themselves to Qingzhou, and they had not eaten half a grain of water and rice, they couldn't help but feel a little guilty in their hearts, but they smiled boldly on their faces: "Today, this official sent a small talent, please go and have a good tooth sacrifice, and you will eat it this morning!" ”

"Thank you, Lord for your grace!"

Although the military orders were strict in Pang Gang's ranks, the soldiers who were already tired and hungry also smiled happily when they heard that they could have a full meal.

Pang Gang took the reins from Xiaoqi's hand and turned over on the horse, shouting "Drive!" The red horse immediately galloped forward with a powerful wave of hooves, and several sergeants also got on their horses and followed closely behind

Fusheng Inn is one of the famous inns in Qingzhou Mansion, covering an area of nearly ten acres, and it can be said that there are people coming and going, even if it is now in the harsh winter, there are nearly half of the guests in the guest room. Due to the heavy snowfall just yesterday and it has not stopped until now, some merchants in the store who originally needed to hurry have been forced to stay in the store, and the hall was crowded with people who ate and drank to pass the boring time, and the shopkeeper was also so busy that his feet did not touch the ground.

At this time, in a corner of the hall, sat four men dressed in coarse cloth and short clothes with weathered faces on their faces, and on their tables there were only two side dishes of peanuts and broad beans, and they drank slowly with a bowl of the most difficult to swallow turbid wine. At first glance, these people are the low-level people who belong to the boat's foot tooth industry, but the fierce aura that exudes from time to time on their bodies makes people a little frightened at first glance, so that a strange phenomenon appears, although the hall is almost full, but the few tables around them have been empty.

These men had been drinking and not speaking, but their eyes kept drifting in the direction of another table not far away. There were only three guests at this table, an old man in a green robe who looked like a merchant and a young man in his twenties who wore a plain silk jacket and looked ordinary, and there were a few plates of sauced beef, drunken duck, pig ears and other side dishes on their tables, but there was a little uneasy look on their faces.

After taking a sip of wine, the young man said in a low voice, "Uncle Kui, what should we do?" These gangsters are already eyeing us. ”

The old man who looked like a businessman said with a solemn expression: "Young Dongjia, these thieves are only afraid that the comers are not good, since we have been targeted, we must not go out of the city at this time, otherwise I am afraid that my surname will not be able to protect my life!" ”

"How's that for good? We have made an appointment with the Sun family to deliver the goods on the fifth day of the next month, if it is overdue, it will lose a lot of money, and our Ji Bao Zhai will not be able to withstand the twists and turns at this time. ”

"So what?" The old man said with a bitter face: "It's better to lose money than to lose your life." ”

The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Don't we still have seven or eight guys?" They also carry knives, guns and clubs, I don't believe that so many of us can't fight these thieves! ”

The old man was startled and hurriedly stopped, "The young owner can't be reckless, not to mention that we don't know if these thieves have accomplices, just these thieves are not something that our rough guys can deal with, let's still say in this Qingzhou City, as long as we get out of the city, I'm afraid our lives will be difficult to protect!" ”

"Alas!" The young man sighed hatefully, "What the hell is this world, it's so difficult to even make a deal!" ”

Just as the young man and the old man were quietly discussing, several fierce men sitting in the corner were also whispering, and one of the big men asked a big man next to him who was about forty years old and had a cheeky face: "Big brother, the idea seems to have noticed us, what should we do?" Do you want to keep going? ”

The leader snorted disdainfully: "What are you afraid of, if they don't go out of the city, we will keep consuming with them, as long as they can't deliver on time, we can be considered to have completed the things explained by the employer, if they eat the leopard and dare to go out of the city, hum The meat sent to the mouth of us has no reason to let go, so we are not in a hurry!" ”

Dahan said a little unwillingly: "It's just that if the idea doesn't go out of the city, we will lose a lot of foreign wealth!" ”

The big man at the head reprimanded in a low voice: "Stupid, you don't think about it with an elm brain, and the idea can stay here for a lifetime?" They'll go out one day, and we'll just catch up and kill them when the time comes. ”

A man stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his lips, and said a little angrily: "Damn, we have been poor for a long time, and after making this vote, Lao Tzu will have to find a dozen Qingqi people to comb them up for them after returning to Yangzhou!" ”

"Hehehehehe"

A group of big men all laughed lustfully, and a companion joked: "Little knife, can you open the buds for a dozen Qingqi people, why don't you let my brother help you?" ”

Throughout the ages, no man in this kind of thing would admit that he was a bad man, "Go, go!" The man said angrily: "I don't know how powerful I am, how can I need your kid's help!" ”

Just when these big men were thinking about beautiful things, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves outside, and soon the door of the hall was pushed open, and a gust of snow drifted in with the cold wind, and the guests who were dining were a little caught off guard, and some people couldn't help but shiver when they were filled by the cold wind, which attracted a few curses.

But the curses soon became as dumb as a rooster that had been choked by the neck, for with the sound of heavy footsteps came seven or eight dignified sergeants dressed in majesty. These sergeants entered the hall and stood still with the waist knives at their waists, and finally an officer wearing a Mandarin Duck battle jacket of the Ming army came in.

The officer entered the hall and shook the snowflakes off his body for a while, and then straightened his appearance before revealing his face. This officer is about twenty years old, tall, and has a trace of indescribable majesty and heroism on his delicate face, this is the Pang Gang people who came to the inn to stay.

A deep voice sounded: "Little Er! ”

"Alas, here it is!" Xiao Er, who ran the hall, hurriedly trotted to Pang Gang and nodded and asked, "This military master, are you going to be a top soldier or live in a hotel?" Want something to eat! ”

Pang Gang said lightly: "You quickly let people lead the horses outside to the stable to take care of them, and then serve us some food, if there are any good dishes, quickly bring them up, and then serve a small jar of good wine, the official and his brothers are hungry!" Also, a few rooms will be prepared for us later, and we will rest after dinner. ”

"Master Jun, don't worry, the little one will do it for you." Xiao Er said to Pang Gang with a smiling face, and then sang loudly, "A jar of good wine and a table of good dishes will come soon!" ”

After Pang Gang finished instructing Xiao Er, he looked around, walked to the empty seat next to the men sitting in the corner, his eyes quickly glanced at the four men and then he was stunned, and his majestic gaze stayed on these men for a while, and at this time, the seven or eight sergeants also came to Pang Gang to stand still, and their eyes also looked directly at these men.

Pang Gang and the others didn't care about it, and the few men who were originally in the hall with fierce eyes only felt that the officer's eyes like lightning shot straight into their hearts, and a sinister aura suddenly came to their faces. The man who was originally shouting that he was going to Yangzhou to comb for a dozen Qing people turned out to have a layer of white hair on his forehead, and then looked at his companions, including the man who was the leader, also quickly lowered his head and drank by himself at this time.

Fortunately, Pang Gang only glanced at them a few times and sat down next to them, and seven or eight people sat at two tables each.

Thank you for the cold moon breeze 1985, the madman far away, the favorite Lu Fengxian, and the reward of God is not ** children's shoes, thank you!
