Chapter 162: The Station
I couldn't see anything clearly, and it was quiet all around.
The worker standing in front of him was yawning, nonchalantly wiping the table in front of him.
Lin Shuqing was carefully looking around, afraid that she would accidentally fall.
The Taoist priest on the side walked up to her vigilantly and leaned into her ear: "Donor, there is a big smell of blood in this station." ”
Hearing this, Lin Shuqing's back was cold, and she felt that something was blowing on her neck.
"Shall we go, then?"
The two of them were thinking about running, and the one in the back kitchen came up with a dim oil lamp.
"There is nothing to eat, but a ewe was slaughtered in the evening, and the lamb went mad, so he slaughtered it together, and you will eat only mutton."
"But this mutton is not cheap, it costs 70 ......yuan a pound," the cook in the back kitchen said.
The cook was a young man in his thirties, and there were a lot of dried blood stains standing on the apron in front of him, as if to indicate the tragedy of the sheep slaughter just now.
"Your sheep is too expensive, we can't afford to eat it, so we still don't want to eat it, so let's go outside and find something." Lin Shuqing said.
She was absolutely wrong when she first entered this station, and now that she has come in, she feels even more like she is in the scene of a horror game.
It's better to slip away quickly, go out and live outside, even if you run into a beast, it's better than this.
Hearing this, the person who was wiping the table in front of him put the cup in his hand on the table.
There was a bang, and the porcelain in the cabinet shook.
I'm not happy to say this, and call us up at night to entertain us? Where are you in this station? The backyard of your own home, you can come and go if you want? ”
Lin Shuqing saw that the person's face was wrong, so she tried to look around.
I'm going to find a bench or something, and if the fight starts later, she also has a tool at hand, and she won't hold everyone back.
Zhang Liqiang immediately stepped forward to ease the atmosphere: "Look, are we all here?" How can you run? It's just that some people are not used to the smell of sheep in it, and the officials are dissipated and dissipated. ”
As he spoke, he handed over a few pieces of silver.
The guy's hands were hidden under the counter, and Lin Shuqing was worried that he would take out some weapon to hurt people in the next second.
"Boss Zhang......" Lin Shuqing just wanted to say the words of prompting.
Outside, there was a banging knock on the door again.
The man's face was a little puzzled, and he looked in the direction of the courtyard.
A group of people took the opportunity to go out of the front hall and came to the courtyard.
The one who opened the door was still the old post officer.
But the people who came in this time were even more like bad people than the people in this inn.
One by one rode tall horses, with scars on their faces.
Lin Shuqing thought for a moment that he was surrounded, and the tiger came back before he got out of the tiger's den, what should he do.
"Where did you come from? What kind of inn door is knocking on this big night? Did you bring silver? The little official looked at the appearance of several people and said with displeasure.
The seven or eight big men who came in first looked at the courtyard for a week, and after discovering Lin Shuqing and his group in the courtyard, they slowly withdrew their gaze.
"What's the matter, I can't live in this inn yet? What you have is silver! The leader of the big man said arrogantly.
The few people behind him also lit up their weapons, and there was a sense that they would open up if they didn't agree with each other.
Although the atmosphere was a little smoky, Lin Shuqing's group was obviously relieved.
It's good to know that they're not in a gang, and it's not like catching turtles in an urn.
"Several, those who come are guests, it's better to go inside and sit down first." Out of nowhere, a young man dressed in the clothes of a post official came out and persuaded him.
The post officer, who was about to get angry, restrained his face, and was not as arrogant as he was just now.
"The stable is in the backyard, I lead the horse over, the forage is 100 wen for a horse, the front hall can eat, the post station is already full, only the front hall can still live in people, but it costs 200 wen a person." The post official road that opened the door was a little triumphant.
It seems that a few people are going to be forced away at this price......
Lin Shuqing looked at these people, she was completely sure that there was something wrong with this post house at the moment, and she just hoped that this group of people would not leave.
The more people there are, the better chance of winning.
Several scarred men seemed to be a little angry when they heard the price: "Is your forage made of gold?" So expensive? The front hall has to charge such a silver for the floor shop, and you are laying gold bricks? ”
"If you can't love it, if you don't love it, you can get out."
"What about them? Where do they live? The big man suddenly pointed at Lin Shuqing and his group.
"They came first, naturally there was a room, and you came later, no."
"Why did they come first, isn't this room occupied by no one yet! I just watched them walk in, and they haven't entered the room yet, so why can't we live? The big man didn't give up.
Lin Shuqing silently wiped a handful of sweat on the big man.
They hadn't even said they wanted a room, but it was ready for them, and it seemed that they were determined to keep them.
After thinking about it, it must have been done by the Xie family.
It's not that the Xie family has hands and eyes all over the sky, and even the county officials in the county next to them can be killed, let alone a small post station.
She didn't know what she had done to offend the Xie family, and it was really embarrassing to chase her like this!
"Why don't you live, we don't live, let's go first." Lin Shuqing stepped forward and said.
The door of the courtyard is open, and the people who are going to take them go quickly.
As soon as these words fell, everyone looked at her.
"Our post station is not a place where you can come if you want to come and walk if you want!" A faint voice floated from behind him.
Then, the kitchen cook, the work in the front yard, and even a few men in the clothes of the inn floated down from the direction of the roof.
Each of them had two knives in their hands.
The blade shone silver in the moonlight, and the blood on it was dripping slowly.
Good guy, it looks like you just killed someone.
Those big men seemed to have some reactions to why the people in this post house were like this.
Do you know who they are?
A few big men began to mutter: "Big brother, don't you know that we are on the wanted list and want to arrest us for silver?" ”
"Yes, big brother, it seems that we have been yin, I thought we could make money, but we gave money to others."
"What to do? Why don't we kill them? ”
The big man held the knife in his hand and was eager to try.
"Whatever, anyway, I want Lin Shuqing's head, and no one can rob me."
Several men jumped off their horses, knives in hand, ready to go on a killing spree.
Lin Shuqing looked at the situation around her, and was a little worried about her own people.
After all, they didn't come out to fight, and they didn't bring so many weapons.
