Chapter 149: Return to the Garden
In order to avoid Zhao Yunzhen's identity being exposed, everyone did not choose a post house with more convenient conditions to stay in, but continued to hide their whereabouts as a member of the Wujia class.
In the afternoon of this day, the group arrived at a small town called Ningyi.
There is an inn called "Guiyuan Tianju" at the entrance of the town, a separate building, not connected with the town street, clean and tidy, there is also a big shed outside the inn door, and there are many tables, chairs and benches in the open air.
After some discussion, everyone decided to make a point here, eat something, and replenish some dry food in the town before setting off.
When the group approached, Xiao Er came out to arrange seats.
Shi Yong looked around and asked casually: "Little second brother, your store is so big, why do you have to set up an open-air shed outside?" ”
Xiao Er glanced at her, brought the hot tea, and said with a smile while pouring the tea:
"The guest officer doesn't know, it seems that there is going to be a war in the north, and there are many people fleeing to the south these days, so our boss has set up this stall, cooking three pots of porridge every day, and there are refugees who drag their families and have no money to live in the store to eat, and they can also do good deeds."
Shi Yong lowered his head and blew on the surface of the water, "Your boss is really a good man." ”
"Alas! The world is not peaceful, whose life can be good? ”
Xiao Er said, someone shouted over there, he smiled apologetically and left.
Shi Yong pondered this sentence and felt that it made sense.
If you don't give charity to the porridge, you may be robbed and killed......
I'd rather be a peace dog than a chaotic person. People in the shadow of war, in order to survive, what can they not do?
Walking along the way, he may have seen too much, Zhao Yunzhen became more and more silent, and when he heard Xiao Er's words, his big black and white eyes turned red, and he didn't look away.
Small children carry too much on their backs.
Shi Yong felt a little sorry for him.
Obviously he is so small, all this has nothing to do with him,
Shi Yong touched his cold little hand, "Young class master, what do you want to eat?" ”
Zhao Yunzhen: "A bowl of noodles." ”
Shi Yong raised his eyebrows, "Is this enough?" ”
Zhao Yunzhen: "I'm small, I can't eat so much." ”
Shi Yong and Xiao C glanced at each other, and Xiao C was silent.
The prince in the past was not like this, he had to taste anything new, but recently he actually knew how to be thrifty.
Shi Yong smiled, "Do you want to add beef?" ”
Zhao Yunzhen shook his head and remained silent.
Shi Yongchong raised her chin to Wuchan and motioned for her to arrange.
Wu Chan wanted to cut a few catties of beef for these brothers in the team, so she went to ask, but they only ate vegetarian noodles, so she gave up.
The prince eats noodles, and no one is embarrassed to eat meat.
Shi Yong looked at Zhao Yunzhen's body sideways outward, looking at Ningyi's street, and couldn't help but grab his shoulder again, "What are you thinking?" ”
Zhao Yunzhen turned his head and asked, "Why is this town so lively?" ”
Shi Yong glanced out, "It may be a market today, so there are more people than usual." ”
When the words fell, Xiao Er, who was sent over, heard it, and he immediately answered, "The girl is right, Ningyi has a small set every three days, and a big set once a month." Today coincides with the big gathering, and all the guests have come from afar, but you can go shopping and buying. ”
After eating, Wuchan took people out on the street to buy.
Before returning to the room, Shi Yong went to the store to buy some raw meat and fed it to Dahei.
This guy is now raised by her to be fat and strong, walking on the road often scares passers-by, Shi Yong wanted to leave it in the inn, but Da Hei was very reluctant, his body dragged on the ground, and he refused to let go of her skirt in his mouth.
Shi Yong was helpless and knocked on the door of its head.
"Lai Pi Dog, get up, take you with me."
Da Hei obediently got up and shook his hair, and walked in front of Zhao Yunzhen proudly.
Shi Yong couldn't cry or laugh.
Everyone thinks that Zhao Yunzhen is the prince, afraid of him, afraid of him, but there is no high or low in the big black eyes.
There is no difference between Ningyi's market and Da Yan's other markets, Shi Yong accompanied Zhao Yunzhen and Xiao Bing to walk in front, and Geng Yi and others followed silently, cautiously.
Walking and stopping all the way, Zhao Yunzhen's small brows were deeply locked.
Shi Yong didn't know what he was looking at or thinking, he just followed closely.
"Would you like to buy something?"
Zhao Yunzhen shook his head.
"You see there are people selling sugar gourds, do you want to try them?"
Zhao Yunzhen shook his head again and suddenly stopped.
"Let's go back."
Shi Yong asked in surprise: "Don't go shopping?" ”
"There's nothing to shop about."
Zhao Yunzhen lowered his eyes and said inexplicably, "Why do you have to fight." ”
The news of the imminent war in front flew into Ningyi like wings, in this town, there are too many hearsay news, and there are even more rumors to spread rumors, and the people in the small town who are far away from the emperor of the sky also have a lot of complaints about the court and the emperor, and they can't say good things.
Geng Yi originally didn't want Shi Yong and Zhao Yunzhen to know about the war, but now he can't hide it.
So, on this trip, even if he was reluctant, he heard a lot of some of them.
Shi Yong looked at the silent little prince, "It's okay to go back, I'll buy some small snacks and bring them back." ”
Zhao Yunzhen glanced at her, "Children only eat snacks." ”
Shi Yong: "??? ”
When the group returned to the inn, they saw the official government's catcher coming in with a big knife on his waist, and saw the lively crowd surrounding the inn.
Shi Yong and Geng Yi exchanged glances, held Zhao Yunzhen's hand tightly, and walked over from the crowd with Da Hei.
The head catcher is asking the shopkeeper.
"What time does the inn open today?"
"As usual, the miscellaneous servant Yin is getting up to sprinkle and sweep, and the door is opened at the beginning of the morning."
"When did you find out that something happened to the guest?"
"There was a theater troupe to stay in the afternoon today, there were a lot of people, and the guest rooms were not easy to arrange, so I thought about asking the family of five if they couldn't live today. I don't know if I knock on the door. The door was tied from the inside. Xiao Er said that he hadn't seen them go out for a day, so I broke down the door and went in......"
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper's face turned pale and he almost vomited.
"There was blood all over the place, and it scared me."
Catch quickly asked: "You said that this family is a family of five, and it was invested in the store yesterday?" ”
"Yes."
"The person who reported the crime, is that you?"
"Yes."
"You were the first person to see the deceased?"
"No, no, no, it's the second child of our store, Huang Si."
There was a bloody case in the inn, and the people staying in the hotel were afraid of getting bad luck.
For a while, check out of the check-out, and walk away.
Wu Chan had just come back from shopping, and was in a hurry in the room, and when she saw Shi Yong entering the door, she hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand, "While it's not dark yet, let's go quickly and find another place to stay." ”
Shi Yong raised his eyebrows, "Are you still afraid of the dead?" ”
Wu Chan snorted: "I'm not afraid of the dead, but if we are not afraid, others should be afraid of us." ”
That's it.
Shi Yong was silent for a moment and asked her, "Have you ever seen a corpse?" ”
Wu Chan shook her head, "It is said that he died quite miserably." ”
None of the five members of the family were spared, which was naturally miserable.
Shi Yong handed Zhao Yunzhen to her, "I'll take a look." ”
