Chapter 62: Attacked in the Night
At first glance, the inn was very simple, there were no other guests, and there were several men who were dressed in tatters, but looked at them with a smile.
"Quick, go and arrange a room for this girl and prepare food and drinks." Standing in front of the wine cabinet should be the man in charge of the shopkeeper commanded.
Two other men took the order and hurried to prepare, one upstairs and the other in the back kitchen.
calmly walked to the table and sat down, quietly observing the decorations of the inn and a few entertainers, raising his hand to pick up the teapot and pour the tea, but saw that the tea had not been changed for a long time.
She frowned, and subconsciously carried her bags better.
The people of the inn brought up the wine and food, and looked at the dress and bags of the hundred miles of the moon, and the appearance was quite sneaky, and the hundred miles of the moon were not seen, and they happily picked up the chopsticks and moved on the simple dishes, but they did not eat after all.
After eating at the dinner table for a while, Baili Tayue moved upstairs, and the shopkeeper led her to a room.
"Girl, here, please."
"Okay, there's work." The smile responded, and Baili Tayue raised his hand to push the door.
"Hey, girl, after all, this is the mountains, the wind is strong at night, and there are often wild beasts howling, it may seem chaotic, girl, don't be afraid, there are us people, we will guard the peace here."
Hundred miles of stepping on the moon to look at the shopkeeper, raising eyebrows and smiling?
Keeping the peace here? I think you're trying to make some kind of mess, right? Thinking lightly in his heart, Baili Treadon Moon pushed the door open.
"Thank you very much." After saying that, Baili Tayue entered the house and closed the door.
The shopkeeper outside the room looked at it for a while, then turned to look at the other guests at the staircase, with a smug expression.
After entering the house, Baili Tayue put his bags away.
She lit the candle and the room was lit by a fire.
She walked to the window and pushed open the window, looking at Qilin Mountain in the bright moonlight, thinking that she would pick the Qilin grass early tomorrow and leave this place of crisis.
About an hour later, Baili Tayue closed his eyes on the bed, but he did not fall asleep.
A jumble of voices rang out outside the house.
Next, Baili Tatsuki heard the sound of the door of the room being pushed open.
"That girl is probably from a rich family, and she must have something valuable!"
"Quietly, where is her package?"
The voices of several people talking in low voices rang out.
"Don't talk about those, get rid of that girl first, as for the rest, it's not all ours!"
A commanding voice spoke, and then, the shopkeeper who spoke walked quickly to the bedside, and saw Baili Tayue with his eyes closed, looking sleepy.
As soon as he raised his hand, a dagger flickered brightly, and a ray of light was slashed.
She had already noticed that someone had come in and Baili Tayue had already heard the conversation of several people clearly, and when she felt the light of the knife, she secretly exerted force in her hand and gathered internal force.
The shopkeeper chuckled smugly and stabbed the dagger down.
However, the next moment, the dagger stopped in mid-air.
Baili Tayue suddenly opened her eyes and pressed the hand of the shopkeeper, her palm accumulated strength, and the shopkeeper couldn't move for a while.
Then, when the shopkeeper was shocked, Baili Tayue had already gotten up and pressed the shopkeeper holding the dagger on the pillar next to the bed with his backhand.
Seeing this, the two people on the side hurriedly rushed over and rushed to the moon.
The corners of his lips were hooked and a disdainful smile appeared.
With a light gesture, she snatched the dagger from the shopkeeper's second-hand hand, and then flew towards the two people and stabbed them.
"This girl is very skilled!"
As soon as the subdued shopkeeper's voice fell, the two people had been frightened to the ground by the suddenly shaking knife of Baili Tayue, and they sat down one after another.
Why is this incompetent?
Baili Treading Moon still felt that it was not enough to be happy, so he turned around and grabbed the shopkeeper who was leaning against the pillar, and held him with the two people.
"Girl, girl, chivalrous girl, we were wrong, you can spare us."
"This girl hasn't had enough fun, why did you surrender?"
Raising his eyebrows and smiling, he slashed the dagger across the cheeks of several people with a gesture of stepping on the moon, and several people trembled in panic and did not dare to move.
For the incompetence of these mountain bandits who were playing tricks in the inn, Baili Tayue felt particularly bored, but after thinking about it, this Qilin Mountain is so big, it would be good for more people to help find the Qilin Grass after all.
"How many of you, with this ability, dare to attack me at night? I'm afraid that if I reward you with a few more heads, you won't be able to! β
Baili Treading Moon deliberately scared a few people, revealing a ruthless appearance.
"Yes, yes, chivalrous, we were wrong." Several people apologized one after another.
"That's it, I see that you just want money, it's better to go up the mountain tomorrow to help me pick herbs, and when you find me, you will reward you with some silver taels, this is my opportunity to spare your life, if you miss this opportunity, you will be of no use to me."
Continuing to make a ruthless appearance and intimidating a few mountain bandits, Baili Treadon Moon glared at them and said.
Seeing that there was a chance to save their lives, several people nodded again and again and hurriedly agreed.
"Okay, chivalrous, we'll do whatever you say." It was an incompetent mountain bandit who succumbed to strong force.
Baili Tayue shook his head and ordered, "Get ready to go." β
Early the next morning, the sun was gradually rising and the sun was bright, kicking off the prelude to today.
Baili Tayue put on a neat dress, changed into a pair of cloth shoes, and took the two people up the mountain.
In his hand, he held a small basket, ready to pick some wild fruits and come back to taste the fun of the farm.
She has lived in the boudoir for a long time, and she is curious about these, especially want to try it.
But her unattainable status is destined to be unattainable.
Now that she has a chance, how can she let it go so easily? Of course, it's about letting yourself go!
Walking for hundreds of miles on the moon, the mountain path, soaked with dew, became very slippery, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall without warning.
Even so, it still didn't make her feel disappointed, but even more excited.
If it were normal times, she could only play the piano and play music honestly, how could she be so nonsense.
However, she can't forget her purpose, she came here to collect medicine and cure diseases.
You can't just play and play, lose your sense of proportion, and harm others and yourself.
"Hey! Do you often go up to the mountains and play casually? Baili Tayue turned his head and said with a smile: "I'm really envious!" Wouldn't it be nice if I could be free? β
The two people who followed behind Baili Tayue did not answer her directly, but blocked her mouth in disguise.
They told her in a stern tone that unicorn grass was hard to find, and that she had to work hard to get one.
Hearing them say this, Baili Tayue did not continue to hang on to his son, quickly squatted down, and began to look for the unicorn grass.
Wild grasses, wild herbs and herbs are all over the ground, and looking for unicorn grass here is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.
It is also in this way that precious herbs can be sold at a good price to compensate for the hard work of the herb pickers.
Baili Tayue took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and put his little hand on the blade of grass, gently Buddha to Buddha.
She started from under a ginkgo tree until she found a pine tree two or three kilometers away.
After searching for two hours, I always dug up a lot of wild vegetables in order to find unicorn grass.
She couldn't help but shake her head as she looked at the basket full of spring, and a trace of anger rose in her heart.
Baili Tayue dropped the basket, sat on the ground, and asked a little irritably: "Are you sure that there is the unicorn grass I need on this mountain?" β
In fact, she knows very well that she should not give up on herself and ask such a mentally retarded question.
But she's been looking for it for two hours! There are only twelve hours in a day.
Her patience is really running out.
Seeing that she was anxious, the two immediately trotted over, beside her, and said in a strange tone: "Miss, we think what you are looking for is not a unicorn grass, but a very rare soul rejuvenation grass." β
"It's hard to find this herb and it grows in harsh environments, so it's not easy to get it."
Hearing this, Baili Tayue immediately jumped up, and a slight smile appeared on his sad face.
Don't you know? She always felt that something was weird, so she used clichΓ©s to verify the authenticity.
Baili Tayue said coldly: "The soul rejuvenation grass you are talking about in your mouth is a red grass without flowers? β
She wanted to say a few more words, disrupt the clue, and let the two guess.
But I didn't want to, the two didn't give her almost at all, they kept chattering, she was right, the soul grass is like this.
Baili Treading Moon was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked them, where does the Soul Returning Grass grow? And how to get it?
The two didn't mean to hide it, and bluntly told her that they grew up under the cliff.
This result made her a little shocked, but she had to get the Soul Rejuvenation Grass.
A hint of gloom flashed in Baili Tayue's eyes, and a shallow smile appeared on her fair and flawless cheeks, which did not reach the corner of her eyes. "Then there are two Lao! When it is done, I will thank you. β
As soon as these words came out, the two suddenly changed their faces, one accused the other of being greedy for money, and the other loudly humiliated the other person.
It's really the good guys and the bad guys, and they are all in charge, pushing the hundred miles of the moon into a troublesome situation.
If she doesn't go, I'm sorry for the man's maintenance and his help.
If she really goes, then the relationship between the two of them may come to an end.
More important than these, she had more important things to do, this soul rejuvenation grass, she had to get it.
Baili Tayue gritted his teeth, took out a gold leaf from his pocket, and handed it to the two of them. "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, when I get the Soul Rejuvenation Grass, I will be grateful."
When the gold leaves are illuminated by the sun, they reflect a burst of strong light, making it impossible to look at it directly.
The hollow design reduces the damage to the eyes and does not make it difficult to see.
To tell the truth, she likes the appearance of gold leaves very much, so she has been staying with her.
In order to get the Soul Rejuvenation Grass, she had to reluctantly cut her love.
After the two took the gold leaf, they no longer continued to make noise, and they didn't know Mount Tai one by one, and praised the hundred miles of stepping on the moon for their refreshing shots.
Then, they took a hundred miles to the moon and came to a place shrouded in mist.
