Chapter 99: There are pursuers behind

Gu Chao's body is not suitable for riding a horse now, so he can only ride a horse with Ye Sheng, and let Ye Sheng take him. Gu Chao's back arrow wound had not been treated, and Ye Sheng didn't dare to hurry too fast, holding the horse's belly between his legs, and hurried forward with Gu Chao's guidance.

Now looking at the speed of the two people, Guiyang has a nearly week's journey to Kunming, and Ye Sheng can't climb to the sky in one step, walking slowly along the country road, walking from noon to evening. Wearing the stars and the moon, under the dark night, the two hungry people finally saw an inn standing next to the deserted street, the inn was quiet, but there were still lanterns, and the sign of the inn was floating on the flag, 'There is an inn'.

The boss behind the scenes of "There is an inn" is really wealthy, all the way from Jiangnan, whether it is Longgang or Kunming and other places, there are branches of this inn, such a rich guy, I don't know what to eat every day! Ye Sheng touched his flat belly, and he couldn't wait to eat a plate of pork belly in a big gulp now.

Led the horse to the shopkeeper, Ye Sheng supported Gu Chao's arm, and the two of them walked into the empty hall and sat down, Ye Sheng couldn't wait to order five or six dishes, all of which were meat and hard dishes. The innkeeper saw that it was rare to have a single business today, and immediately walked up with a smile, "Are the two of you sharpening or staying in the hotel?" ”

"It's so late, it's impossible to hurry, give us two upper rooms." Ye Sheng smiled slightly, looked at the amiable shopkeeper and asked, "Where is this?" "The two young heroes are running around overnight? Look at the tired and dusty. The shopkeeper smiled and handed over a pot of wine and put it on the table and said, "This is Qujing, where are you two going?" ”

Before Ye Sheng could reply, Gu Chao had already glanced at the wine on the table and said, "Withdraw it." The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile on his face, "This is the rice wine brewed by the small shop, which is given away for free, and no money is required." Gu Chao originally thought that this shopkeeper was going to buy and sell, but now it seems that he is still a good person, Gu Chao nodded, and his entire injured back did not dare to move, for fear of involving the sore spot, "Then bring another pot and send it to the room." Gu Chao got up slowly, glanced at Ye Sheng and said, "Finish eating early and go up early, I still have something to tell you!" ”

"Yes!" Ye Sheng raised his butt in response, and watched Gu Chao slowly go upstairs and enter the house step by step, Ye Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and sat back on the wooden bench, "Shopkeeper, how many dishes did I order?" "This young man, you asked for five dishes." "Oh, that's it, it's really not easy to do, so send three dishes upstairs for my senior brother to enjoy, but the first three dishes must be allocated to me a little."

"Understood!" The shopkeeper smiled and sat next to Ye Sheng in an approachable manner, "Isn't this young man from Kunming?" "How do you know?" Ye Sheng smiled, but the hand under the table had already clenched his fists, if there was an accident, he would start immediately!

"Hey! Needless to say! Some time ago, I walked through several groups of martial arts people on this road! I heard them say that they are going to Kunming Phoenix Mountain to exterminate some Ming religious rebels! Thanks to them, business in my inn has been booming for a few days! ”

"I see." Ye Sheng nodded, unplugged the wine pot and took a sip, the wine tasted light and fragrant but not strong, Ye Sheng filled a glass, and gave the shopkeeper another glass, "The Ming Sect rebels have already been wiped out by chivalrous people such as us, and now everyone is scattered before and after, in a few days, you will definitely have a business of passing through and staying on this road again." ”

The shopkeeper was flattered and watched Ye Sheng pour himself wine with a wine glass, and then a bright smile appeared on his lips, "That's great!" I don't usually have much business on this road! We can only count on these days! Come, young man, I toast you! "Ye Sheng is not wary of this self-cooked shopkeeper, he has been holding back in a lonely environment for a long time, and he must want to say everything.

"Guest officer, your dish is here!" The shopkeeper came up with a plate of dishes, and the shopkeeper immediately ordered, "Xiao Wu, bring three dishes upstairs to the guest officer, and then fry three dishes, count it as mine!" "Oh, no!" Ye Sheng hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, "Shopkeeper, look at you who are cold and lonely, your business is not good, how can you do a loss-making business!" ”

"It's okay! I hit it off at first sight with this young man! Oh, I don't know the name of the young man yet! "My name is Ye Sheng, and I'm a rough man! I don't understand any big truth, but I still have to give money for food! Ye Sheng turned his head to look at the shopkeeper, "Man! Let the kitchen stir-fry three more dishes! Then when I went upstairs to deliver the food, I asked my senior brother to settle the account by the way! The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly in response, he didn't care who paid the bill, as long as the money was not bad.

After running around for a day, Ye Sheng also seemed to be looking for some free time to chat, that Gu Chao was arrogant, although he rode the same horse with him, but it could be seen that he didn't look down on himself at all, if he hadn't been injured and had to do it, I'm afraid he would have already parted ways with himself. This shopkeeper seems to be a gentle and kind guy, and Ye Sheng is also willing to say some words, "You don't know!" At the top of Phoenix Mountain, the Ming Sect rebels we encountered, that was ......"

"Crowded? Meandering like a dragon? The shopkeeper also likes to listen to the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and refills a glass of wine for Ye Sheng, and then pours himself full, "I heard that the Ming Sect is huge, and this time it is the imperial court that unites many sects in the rivers and lakes, right?" "It's nature!" Ye Sheng nodded, "The moment I climbed to the top of the mountain, I saw a sea of people, winding like a dragon, I am the second senior brother of the Justice Gang, so naturally I want to take the lead in setting an example, I only saw me ...... move."

Bang! Ye Shengzheng said that he was rising, who would have thought that the door of the inn was opened, and the shopkeeper was about to hear the wonderful story, but he was suddenly blocked by this violent voice, he was not very happy, looked up, and asked, "Who is it!" "Coming in was a group of soldiers in military uniforms, they were dusty and dusty, and they could see that they had driven a lot of way.

Ye Sheng was shocked, he didn't expect to meet Tang Yan, the little prince's soldiers and horses, here. There were more than a dozen soldiers and horses in this team, and they walked into the inn one after another, and then the leader glanced at Ye Sheng expressionlessly, and asked, "Shopkeeper, have you ever noticed that a man in a green shirt with an arrow wound on his back passed here?" ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, and then shook his head, "Back to a few officials, no." "Are you sure?" The soldier at the head frowned, and put one hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist, "This person is wanted by the imperial court, and the Ming Sect is against the party, if you dare to cover up, you will also be hit on the ground!" The shopkeeper turned pale with fright, and quickly knelt down and said, "I don't!" I really don't! ”

The team leader was relieved to see that the shopkeeper was so afraid of him, and with a smug smile on his face, he said, "I don't think you dare to lie!" Go ahead and cook us ten or eight dishes! We're going to stay here tonight! ”
