Chapter 0205: Wilderness Tavern
This wilderness village is restless in the dead of night. The wooden house tavern is not only not deserted, but very lively. Seven or eight treasure hunters who roamed the Northland gathered together, bragged and drank, teased the cook, and filled the hall with joy. Zhou Qingfeng stood in front of the counter of the tavern very uncomfortable, completely confused.
Watching the cook flee back, the bald head Batu calmed down a little. He shouted to Zhou Qingfeng again: "Guest, what do you want?" Don't just roll. ”
Zhou Qingfeng was inexplicable but it was impossible to roll, since Batu and the cook didn't recognize him, he had to wait for it to change and replied, "Is there anything to eat?" ”
"Boiled hand grabbing sheep's head, or?"
"Sheep's head? Isn't it mutton? ”
"The mutton is sold out, and only the head of the sheep remains."
Speaking of which, Zhou Qingfeng was really a little hungry after tossing all night, he nodded and said, "Okay, the sheep's head is the sheep's head." ”
"A boiled sheep's head." Batu shouted at the back kitchen, and shouted to Zhou Qingfeng: "Guest, five taels of silver." ”
You're a fucking robbery, aren't you? I came to patronize this shabby shop in the middle of the night, and you don't recognize me as a friend, even if you don't recognize me, you still have to blackmail me. If you can open your mouth, five taels of silver is enough to buy a whole sheep.
Zhou Qingfeng glared and said, 'This is too expensive'. Batu propped up the counter with both hands, and replied with momentum, 'It's the price, you can eat if you like, and if you don't eat, you will leave'.
The treasure hunters in the tavern were so bored that they muttered and shouted when they found that there was something to be seen. Someone hiccuped and laughed, "Where is this kid from?" Don't you know about the black shop opened by this Mongolian barbarian? Isn't it just to earn this black money when people entertain visitors from all over the world outside this ghost mound? ”
The guy who hiccuped laughed a few times, and then shouted to Batu: "Hey, Mongolian barbarian, is your mother-in-law really not going to sell?" In this barren mountain and wilderness, the uncle hasn't slept with a woman for several days. Let your mother-in-law suck a bird for my uncle, how much does it cost or not with your price? Even if your mother-in-law with a big ass refuses, let your handsome girl come. ”
A room full of treasure hunters counted on this meat joke to pass the time, and the object of the joke was the two women in the cabin tavern. Hearing this, Batu slammed the counter and scolded: "If you are so noisy, you won't go when the Onitsuka opens the valley." ”
With such a threat, the tavern was only a little quieter. Someone glanced at Zhou Qingfeng, and then whispered about the relationship between this young boy and Batu, and even came to this Jedi treasure hunt to die.
Waiting for the noise to subside, Zhou Qingfeng took out a golden bean from his money bag and put it on the counter, estimating that it was worth about five taels of silver. Batu didn't even look at it, and after receiving the golden beans, he waved impatiently and asked Zhou Qingfeng to find a place to sit down. Zhou Qingfeng found a corner location, and after a while, the little maid girl in the tavern came up with a wooden plate, on which was the boss's sheep's head.
The maid girl is probably the same age as Zhou Qingfeng, wearing a bulging leather robe, with a random braid, her eyes are big and bright, and she looks at Zhou Qingfeng with curiosity. She put the plate down, then picked up a small axe from the plate and slashed it at the sheep's skull.
Zhou Qingfeng hadn't eaten this thing, so he watched the hard sheep's brain shell being chopped by an axe, and the hot water vapor inside came out, and there was an indescribable fragrance diffuse. The maid girl looked at Zhou Qingfeng's frightened appearance, smiled with squinted eyes, stuffed a wooden spoon over, and whispered a few words.
Zhou Qingfeng couldn't understand the Mongolian language spoken by this girl, so he could only continue to be stunned. The girl smiled again, grabbed the little axe that split the sheep's skull, and left. When she returned to the back kitchen, another bored treasure hunter tried to grab her thigh, and she immediately pursed her mouth viciously and shook her small axe in demonstration.
The wooden house tavern fell into a chaotic whisper again, Zhou Qingfeng looked at the split sheep brain in front of him, and hurriedly dug the sheep brain inside with a wooden spoon to eat. Maybe he was really hungry, but he thought it tasted good. After eating the sheep's brain, he took out the knife and salt he had brought with him, cut off the skin and flesh of the sheep's face and dipped it in salt.
Food can't be wasted.
Zhou Qingfeng ate silently, and he didn't know what time it was. When he was almost finished, the door of the wooden house was suddenly pushed open, and a cold wind blew outside, mixed with blood. He had a keen sense of hearing, and he had long since sensed the approach of several people outside. When the door opened, he turned his head to look over, only to see several embarrassed treasure hunters entering, one of them covered in blood.
"Barbarian, barbarian, is there any other medicine to restrain corpse poison? Give me a copy, my brother won't be able to hold on. One of the people who came in ran and rushed to Batu behind the counter.
Batu didn't know where to find a wooden box, and said indifferently: "Five taels of gold." ”
"I don't have any money now, I owe it first, I owe it." The person who asked for the medicine reached out and grabbed it, pleading with a pleading face.
But the corners of Batu's mouth curled and sneered: "If you don't have money, you can't have medicine, and I don't take credit here." ”
The person who asked for medicine was immediately furious, "Barbarian, I have spent thousands of taels of silver on you. Now that my brother is dying, what can I do if I owe some money for medicine? I've been lucky these days, and I've found a lot of treasures in the ghost mound, so can't I pay you back? ”
Batu didn't have a good face, and continued to sneer: "If you really find the treasure, take it out and show it to me." The price I bought here is 20% higher than that of others. ”
The man who asked for the medicine obviously couldn't get any treasure, and he pleaded and threatened, and finally had to borrow money from the other treasure hunters in the tavern. But the people here lick their blood with their knives, and they have no deep relationship with anyone, and they will never lend money to others indiscriminately. The person who asked for medicine almost cried bitterly, and the person he knew begged for it, and finally begged Zhou Qingfeng.
"This little brother, lend me five taels of gold, and I will definitely pay you back in a few days." The person who asked for medicine looked anxious, but he didn't say his name or give a mortgage, and the so-called repayment of the money was a joke.
Zhou Qingfeng wanted to shake his head and ignore it, but he suddenly saw a branch on the other party's shoulder, which was very special. He pointed to the branch and asked, "Where did this thing come from?" ”
The person who asked for medicine didn't even notice the branch, but he turned his head to pick it off and said as if it were a treasure: "Little brother has a good eye, this thing is a rare ...... from the ghost mound." ”
Zhou Qingfeng sneered, pushed the person seeking medicine away and said, "Stay away from me, don't get too close, and don't take me for a fool." Tell me honestly where this branch came from, and I might be able to help you. ”
The person seeking medicine was also embarrassed when he looked at the branch, he really didn't know where the branch on his shoulder came from? However, after thinking about it for a long time, he said eagerly: "We just escaped from the Thousand Corpses Cave in the Onizuka, and we fought people there. The branch probably got on it when it rolled on the ground. ”
"Give me the branches." Zhou Qingfeng took the inconspicuous little thing and carefully identified it, and asked the person seeking medicine a few words before taking out a small bottle from the backpack he was carrying, and poured out a pill and gave it to the person who asked for medicine. The other party was overjoyed when he smelled the pill, and turned to take care of his brother who was lying on the ground with a black and purple face who had been poisoned by the corpse.
Zhou Qingfeng put the branch on the tip of his nose and smelled it, this thing had a faint smell. When he was in Ehkulen, he had smelled it in the woodland servant named 'Dumb'. He always likes to put some flowers, flowers and branches on himself to dress up. Zhou Qingfeng once noticed that the flowers and trees selected by 'Dumb' were not found at random.
The dog-like 'dog meat' lay at Zhou Qingfeng's feet, and he handed the branch to the other party and sniffed it. The stupid dog immediately snorted a few times, indicating that he remembered the taste.
The treasure hunter who asked for medicine rescued his companion, and hurriedly asked the bald head Batu if there was a vacant room to stay and rest, and the result was that he lived in a single room for ten taels of silver a day, and he also owed no credit. When Zhou Qingfeng heard this, he also went up and asked if there was a room to rest. Batu glanced at him, took him two golden beans, and called the cook to take him to check in.
There was a large two-story courtyard behind the tavern, and the treasure hunter and his companion were placed in one of the rooms. Zhou Qingfeng originally thought that he was going to live in a similar room, but the cook pulled his sleeve and pulled him to the back kitchen and said, "Does the little master remember me?" ”
"Remember, remember." Hearing the cook's question, Zhou Qingfeng finally found a chance to speak, and he hurriedly asked: "Are you the maid beside Sister Zhuo, the night He Zhuo left Fushun, or did you send me that 'listening stone'." Isn't the shopkeeper outside Batu, why can't I remember? ”
Seeing Zhou Qingfeng pull the stone out of the neckline, the cook smiled slightly: "It's not in vain that the heroine has a heart for you, you just remember it." It's just that we no longer work with Master Hezhuo. ”
"What the hell is going on?" Zhou Qingfeng didn't understand at all.
"After Master Hezhuo returned to the Khalkha Ministry, he had a very stiff quarrel with her husband Mang Gurdai. The heroine was sad in her heart, feeling that she had a great enmity but failed to meet a man she could rely on, and finally met a man who was too young. ”
As she spoke, the cook reached out and touched Zhou Qingfeng's face, "I haven't seen you for half a year, but the little master has grown a lot taller." If you hadn't shouted Batu's name in front of me, I wouldn't have recognized the slave. If the hostess met the current little master half a year ago, she would definitely follow you. ”
Due to the labor, the cook's hands were a little rough. However, she was originally Hezhuo's maid, her appearance and figure were not bad, and her smile was quite cute. Zhou Qingfeng grabbed her hand and rubbed it for a while, and then asked, "What's wrong with He Zhuo now?" ”
"Master Hezhuo was grounded by Mang Gurdai and was not allowed to leave him for half a step. We maids were also driven away by Mangguldai, and I was betrothed to Batu to guard the tavern. Batu is also not happy, and has to receive treasure hunters who come here every day. None of the monks were good people, and their gibberish was disgusting. ”
"What are you doing in this tavern?"
"Make money. This tavern is one of the few places to stay near the onizuka, and monks who come to the onizuka treasure hunt must come here. This is nominally the property of Hezhuo Gege, but in fact it is controlled by Bei Zimang Guldai.
Mang Gurdai made a lot of money from these treasure hunters, but he only suffered Batu. He didn't like to do it at all, but if he didn't turn in enough money every month, Mangguldai would punish him. ”
Looking at Batu like that, not only do you not like it, but you are even angry. But in order to make money, you have to forcibly hold back. The cook held a pine oil lamp again, pulled Zhou Qingfeng around the back kitchen, opened a side door and pushed him in. Behind the door was a small room, with a bed leaning against the wall, and the furnishings were clean. The fire in the back kitchen keeps the room warm.
The cook smiled and said, "The little master is here, but I don't dare to let you live with those rough men." This is the room where I live with Sister Batu, so you can sleep here. I'll let my sister accompany you later, she has heard about the matter between you and Master Zhuo, and has always wanted to meet you. ”
There is a place to stay, and Zhou Qingfeng is finally a little relieved.
