Chapter 183: To Weishui City
Su Xin and Beiming said goodbye to Xu Shaolin and Zong Yue early the morning of the second day, took the things they had prepared for Gu Qingyan and quickly set off towards Weishui City, where the Tibetan Sword Gate was located.
Han Yan and Gu Qingyan were already on the road with a group of disciples, Gu Qingyan was only because this trip was to cultivate feelings and distractions with Han Yan, but her masked face was too identifiable, and it was inevitable that she would be recognized, so she wore a hat on the way.
The two-day and one-night trip is nothing for the people who often travel everywhere, but the weather is hot and the wind is less in the past few days, and every time the sun shines directly after noon, Gu Qingyan, the person who is most afraid of the sun and the most afraid of heat, can't cheer up.
On this day, the noon sun had just passed a little bit, and Han Yan and his party arrived outside Weishui City.
Different from the cities of Yunmo, Xieyang, and Jicheng, the reason why Weishui City can be called a city is mostly because the Tibetan Sword Gate is supported here, and it is necessary to talk about the scale of the city or the people's livelihood.
Let's talk about the origin of the name Weishui City, there is a pure natural moat outside the city gate, when there was no city tower originally, the river and the stone tablet on the bank of the full screen were used as a boundary ruler, and later the sword gate was still rich and rich, and the money was paid to build this city tower.
The name of this river is Weishui, which forms a moat outside, and there is a lake with living water in the city, from which the name of the city comes from.
An arched bridge was erected over the moat, and there were many people coming and going in and out of the city, Han Yan looked at Gu Qingyan who was wilting because of the heat, she hadn't spoken for a long time, so she planned to take a short rest before going to the city.
Looking around, there are two tea shops outside the city that are open to the door, and the business is unusually good, and there is no shortage of customers to be delivered.
Han Yan said to everyone: "Rest at the tea shop before entering the city." ”
When everyone responded, they dismounted one after another, and Han Yan walked towards Gu Qingyan as soon as possible and asked her, "Are you okay?" ”
Gu Qing nodded smokyly, along the way, she relied on drinking water and fanning to cool herself down, obviously it was not summer yet, why did it make her a little stuffy and irritable.
"Let's go to the tea shop to rest first."
"Okay."
Although there are a lot of people in the tea shop, there is a place to shade the sun.
After Han Yan finished speaking, he looked at Lin Rui again and ordered: "Senior brother will take some people into the city first, see the situation in the city and arrange accommodation, and we will go in later." ”
Lin Rui nodded, and the group entered the tea shop, and the guys who sat at a few tables didn't feel anything, after all, this kind of formation has been a lot in the past two days.
They were served herbal tea and some snacks to eat, and the guys were too busy to say anything else and went to greet a new batch of guests.
Lin Rui took some of his disciples to drink a pot of tea, and then set off to lead the horses to the city first, while Han Yan and Gu Qingyan took the other remaining disciples to wait for them to be arranged in the city before entering.
Gu Qingyan wore a hat, watching this person come and go through the white veil, the tea in front of him said that it was herbal tea, but there was still some residual heat, and now he had a dry fire in his body, and he couldn't accept it at all, so he pushed the teacup aside, lay on the table and looked at the direction of Hanyan in a daze.
Han Yan touched Gu Qingyan's hair, this little girl pees like this, as long as she is exposed to the heat, the whole person is like losing her soul, he is used to it, he took the teacup that Gu Qingyan pushed to the side very easily, and asked the guy for an empty cup, and began to pour water from this cup to that cup, and then from that cup to this cup, and so back and forth several times, to ensure that the water temperature was cooler again, and then pushed back to Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan took a sip gently, she didn't feel hot, she was bored, and Han Yan continued to take the next cup, giving her cold water again and again.
The two of them were almost speechless the whole time, but they could see that the other disciples of Qingquan Villa had stars in their eyes, and whispered from time to time, as for what they said, only they could hear it clearly.
After three or two glasses of water, Gu Qing's smoke soul has come back a little, but time has passed.
During this time, Lin Rui took his disciples into the city, so he divided a few people to go around to inquire about some news.
"Find out which sects have arrived." He had to know who he would meet today and who he wouldn't meet.
"Go and inquire about the situation of the Hidden Sword Gate recently." The so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other party can deal with it freely.
"Let's see if there is a secret pile contact in the city, if there is, report it and say that the four girls have gone outside the city." Peach Blossom Stream dark piles are almost everywhere in Nanwan, and they all communicate with each other, no matter whether they know Gu Qingyan's whereabouts or not, they should communicate with each other.
After this command was finished, Lin Rui took the rest of the people to find a place to live first.
Weishui City is not big, and there are only two inns in the whole city, although the number of rooms is not small, but it can't stand the number of people during this time.
Before Xiao Er, who was called Linshui Inn, let Linrui and them enter the store, he heard the guy inside report outside: "It's full!" Immediately after that, a plaque full of customers hung at the door.
Xiao Er scratched his head embarrassedly, and hurriedly accompanied Lin Rui and the others, and asked them to hurry to the Weishui Inn in the west to have a look.
"It's better for you guests to come early, didn't someone just quit a few rooms, so how many arrangements will you have?" As soon as the front foot stepped into the Weishui Inn to inquire, they saw a group of people passing by them, also carrying bags and swords.
asked about the number of rooms, and counted the people, there is still one less room in this retreat, after all, it doesn't hurt for other people to squeeze in, but Gu Qingyan is a girl, and she must have a separate room.
Lin Rui first set down those rooms, so as not to disappear for a while, and then arranged with the disciples, from the original one room for every three people to one room for every four people, Lin Rui and Hanyan one room, leaving one room for Gu Qingyan, and arranging everyone's luggage, and then discussing the issue of meals with the guys.
"I'm afraid that the inn can't be busy, are there any restaurants and restaurants around?" Lin Rui looked at the lobby full of people and asked the guy.
The guy thought for a while and said, "There is a guest house, not far away, just around the corner, and many sons and gentlemen also go there to eat." ”
Lin Rui nodded, and the guy pointed to the door number of the room in their hands and said, "If a few sons go, they will take the door number and say that they are guests of our inn, and the boss can also send a pot of wine and a dish or something." ”
Lin Rui thanked the guys, and took people to prepare to go to the guest house, and a disciple said with a smile on the way: "Look at the people in this city are also good at doing business, and this son has no shortage of guests, but they are linked with each other to make money together." ”
As he was talking, before he could answer, the guest house arrived, compared to the inn, the guest house felt a lot less people, not just because the restaurant was three floors to separate people, or because of something else?
"A few guest officers, please." The guy has always been enthusiastic, and he invited people, and asked for needs, and he learned that there were many people in Linrui, and they needed a few more tables, but when they looked at the lobby again, they were a little bad to speak.
"This master, these people in our lobby are afraid that they won't be able to disperse for a while, but these two sides are open seats..."The guy pointed to the two sides behind the column in the lobby, there are curtains on both sides, and there are relatively few people, at most four people at a table, which is more spacious than the six people at the table in the center.
Lin Rui observed a circle, and the position was okay, but it looked like there were people sitting at each table, which estimated that it meant that the table had to be shared.
"Can you help us ask if they would like to share a table?"
Seeing that Lin Rui took the initiative to say this, the guy was naturally willing, and he responded again and again, trotted to the private seat, and found the person in charge: "Master, there are a few guests who seem to have the same purpose as you, and they also come to eat, and they want to share a table, I wonder if you can make it convenient?" ”
"Oh?" The man who was called the master put down the wine glass in his hand and whispered, "Which ones are they?" ”
Hearing his tone, the guy felt that there was a play, and gently opened the curtain: "Master, look." ”
From their point of view, they could just see Lin Rui looking at them, and the man raised his eyes and said in his heart: Acquaintance. Let the man lower the curtain, and then say to him, "Invite someone here." ”
"Boom."
With the right words, the guy trotted back happily, told Linrui the result, and invited Linrui over.
Looking closer, Lin Rui recognized who the person sitting opposite was: "Guan Xin." ”
"Brother Linrui."
The two greeted each other, Guan Xin and very enthusiastically invited Lin Rui to sit down, this Guan Xin is the young owner of the Imperial Sword House, because he is younger than Lin Rui, the last time the two met and talked very happily, so there was a little less politeness between each other.
"Let me introduce you, this is Xingchuan, the eldest disciple of Qingya Mountain, and the one in the purple robe is the disciple of his sect." Guan Xin introduced another man with clear eyebrows who was sitting with him.
Lin Rui knew that the people of Qingya Mountain, it is said that this is a master of the world, and he was once a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes, and later retired to the mountains and forests, bringing up his disciples, and his disciples rarely go in and out of the rivers and lakes, and they are basically not related to each other.
Lin Rui looked at Xingchuan and felt that maybe it was because he was practicing in the mountains and forests, and his temperament was clear.
greeted politely, and then arranged for his disciples to sit down.
Guan Xin learned from Lin Rui that Hanyan was also here, but he was still resting outside the city, so he said: "Don't worry, we just waited for the seat to sit down, add some dishes, and when they come, they will almost be served." ”
Guan Xin didn't mind that he and Han Yan had never known each other, so he arranged everything here naturally, and asked his own disciples to adjust their positions, and asked his guys to add dishes, so he was a self-cooked.
Lin Rui saw that it was in order, so he also ordered someone to go outside the city to deliver the letter, Hanyan got the letter, Gu Qingyan was almost rested, and then the group left the tea shop and entered the city.
