Chapter 002: Buns (2)
A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, followed by a rumbling sound in the air. Xing Ruyi woke up from his dream, plucked his ears in a daze, looked up, looked at the fox's side face and said, "Is it going to rain?" ”
The fox hummed softly, but his eyes were looking out the window.
Judging by the jolting of the carriage, they must have been traveling on a mountain road at this time. In addition to the smell of plants, the night breeze is mixed with the smell of rotting earth and the smell of dampness before the mountain rain is about to come.
"Is this lightning good-looking?"
"It's not that the lightning is beautiful, it's that there's something strange in the mountains." The fox lowered the curtain and covered Xing Ruyi's ears with his hands: "Sleep, I'll help you cover your ears." ”
"I'm halfway through obedience, how can I still sleep."
Xing Ruyi got up, stretched his waist, and then walked over the fox with his upper body, lifted the curtains that were gently stirred by the night breeze, and glanced out.
"Are there ghosts in this mountain?"
"You feel it too?"
The fox asked with a smile, rubbing Xingruyi's hair.
"Such a strange smell, you don't have to feel it, you can smell it just by your nose. Well, the lightning, although it pierced the night sky, all fell in one place. And this thunder, which also hit the same place. "Xing Ruyi pointed to the place where lightning and thunder fell." There, there are either demons or ghosts, and nine times out of ten they are still evil ghosts. ”
"Are you afraid?"
The fox asked with a smile, a pair of fox eyes narrowing into a hooking line.
Xing Ruyi wrapped his arms around his neck and asked rhetorically: "Your lady and I, do you need to be afraid?" ”
"Whether it's a demon or a demon, we're just passing by. You are not allowed to be curious, and you are not allowed to provoke those things at will! ”
The fox tapped the tip of Xing Ruyi's nose, and Xing Ruyi lazily pretended to doze off and said, "Okay, okay, people know." She is now Mrs. Yin, and she is no longer the shopkeeper Xing in the past. I promise, I'll be safe and well-behaved, and I won't mess with those things. But I have to say this ugly thing first, and if those things provoke me, I will be angry. ”
The fox sighed helplessly. His wishfulness is born with the ability to provoke ghosts. originally thought that this time back to Luoyang, you can go all the way without worry, but now it seems that worry-free is just a delusion.
The night wind rolled up the curtains, and the fox looked at the lightning bolt and thought it was another trouble.
Yang Jiaji did not have the habit of curfew, and the carriage of the fox and Xing Ruyi drove slowly in under the cover of night. It's a shame that there is no one on the street, otherwise seeing an unmanned carriage is enough to attract crowds of onlookers.
Finding an inconspicuous inn, the fox stopped the carriage, lifted the curtain, and helped Xing Ruyi down.
"You go to the inn to rest first, I still have some things to do, I'll be back later."
"What are you going to do?"
"Go see an old friend."
The fox glanced in the direction where the lightning fell.
Xing Ruyi followed his gaze, smiled slightly, and did not continue to ask. She knew that whatever the fox did, it was for her good.
Seeing the fox disappear into the night, Xing Ruyi stretched his waist and walked into the inn.
The inn was deserted, and even the tables were covered with a light layer of dust, and it didn't look like business was doing well. The young man with the hat was sleeping soundly with his head propped up by his hands, which made people feel a little unbearable to wake up.
Xing Ruyi shook his head, walked around the inn, and when he returned to the counter, he tapped his fingers on the table twice.
The young man opened his eyes and saw that it was a fresh face, then closed his eyes again, and muttered: "Go where it's cool, don't disturb the master's sleep." ”
"I would venture to ask, is it important for you to sleep or to entertain guests? If you can't live in this inn, Mrs. Ben and I will change to another home. ”
"Of course I'll sleep with my master...... Are you staying in a hotel? ”
The young man came back to his senses, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.
"Why, this inn won't let you stay?"
"Stay, stay." The young man's face was instantly full of smiles: "Madame, is it a permanent residence, or a short stay?" The longer we stay here, the more discounts we give. Of course, this short stay is also welcome. ”
"It depends on the mood. Do you have any fun, nice places to see here? If so, stay longer, and if not, shorter. ”
Xing Ruyi followed, took out the silver bag he was carrying, and put it on the counter.
The young man only glanced at it, and knew that this person in front of him was a big customer, and he hurriedly replied: "We have a Shuanglong Mountain here, and the scenery is very good." In the west, there is also a Baiyun Temple, which is a place for cultivation, and if the lady likes to be quiet, she can also go and have a look. By the way, the viewer of the White Cloud Temple is still a master of looking, if the lady is interested, she can also go over and ask. ”
"Is there anything good to eat here?"
"Delicious?" The young man pointed outside: "There is a bun shop not far from here." Madame, don't look at it as just a small bun shop, that bun is very delicious. I guess there won't be such delicious buns in the palace. ”
As soon as the young man finished speaking, Xing Ruyi smelled the fragrance of steamed buns. Not to mention, the smell was really tempting, and it made her hungry.
didn't think much about it, and directly pushed the silver bag in his hand to the young man.
"Help me arrange an upper room, a bigger one, a little more spacious, preferably with some views. By the way, clean up and prepare some hot water. Our carriage is parked at the door, please arrange it too. ”
"Madame, don't worry, we promise to let you live comfortably and take care of your carriage properly."
If you have money, you are naturally easy to talk. has money, and this guy's efficiency can definitely be assured.
Just as he was about to raise his feet and go to the bun shop in the young man's mouth, he saw a group of people in soap suits hurrying past the door of the inn.
Xing Ruyi sniffed lightly and smelled a faint smell of dead corpses.
"Are there dead people in this town?"
