() This was not the place that caught Bai Ling's attention the most, but there were twenty or so tables in the lobby of the inn, and almost every table had one or two people sitting on them, but there was a dead silence inside.

No one chatted, no one laughed, no one got up to toast, only a handful of tables with teapots and cups on them—seemingly à la carte.

The little two of this inn stood by the counter with his head buried in his head, not knowing what to look at, not saying a word, and not soliciting customers.

This place looks like it's boring......

Bai Ling turned to leave, and suddenly someone shouted from behind, "Eh-you, you're not, it's who-"

This voice is familiar to Bai Ling.

Bai Ling turned around - sure enough, it was none other than the scar man who made Bai Ling feel that something was wrong in the semicolon of the dart game this morning.

The man approached with a smile and raised his hand to grab Bai Ling's shoulder, but Bai Ling leaned back, and the scar man's hand flew into the air.

The scar man withdrew his hand stupidly, but then smiled again, "Hey, I also said, you were in a hurry to leave in the afternoon, and I didn't ask you where you live or when you will leave." You didn't understand these things, how can I arrange for you to go to Jiangzhou. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly widened his eyes slightly, looked at the inn, and then at Bai Ling, "So little brother, are you planning to go by yourself?" ”

"It's all a matter of eight characters that haven't been skimmed yet," Bai Ling smiled, "I've been shopping around for the past two days, and I heard that this place is full of night markets, so I came to take a look." ”

"I'll tell you." The scar man smiled, "But look at the excitement, I still want to talk to you about going to Jiangzhou next time you come——"

"Forget it tonight," Berlin interrupted, "I'll go back." ”

"Eh, don't go!" The scar man blocked Bai Ling's way, "What do you say, Xu Dahong handed you over to me, I have to give you a good ride, right?" Why do you want to run-"

As he spoke, the scar man was about to grab Bai Ling's shoulders and arms, but Bai Ling dodged left and right, but he dodged several of his reaches.

The scar man let out a funny "hey", his previous actions were indeed not very serious, but this well-known young man was too shameless.

So the scar man frowned, and this time he grabbed Bai Ling's wrist quickly and unexpectedly, and when he was about to succeed, his other hand was suddenly folded from behind.

"Eh

Bai Ling looked up and saw that there was a middle-aged man behind the scar man.

This man was slender and long, and he didn't look far less sturdy than the flesh of a scarred body, but he had a lot of strength in his hands.

He had elongated eyes, eyebrows, and a messy stubble on his chin, and looked to be about thirty or forty years old.

"In broad daylight—" As soon as the man spoke, he suddenly realized that it was almost dark by this time, so he stopped his mouth and changed his words, "There are so many people here, how dare you rob the street in front of you?" ”

"It's not a robbery...... Not a robbery! The scar man said with difficulty, "We know each other, big brother, I don't believe you ask!" You ask! ”

The middle-aged man's eyes looked at Bai Ling, and there was no smile in those narrow eyes, full of solemnity and the majesty of an official.

"It's true, he's a nearby dart master." Bai Ling replied, "Thank you for the rescue." ”

The middle-aged man let go of his hand and pushed Scar Man forward.

The scar man rubbed his arm and looked back at the man with a half-flattering look, "This eldest brother is also here to enlist in the official family?" ”

"Yes, I saw a notice in the south of the city, so I came over to take a look." He whispered.

"Hey, isn't it a waste of your skills to be an assistant soldier for the official family!" Scar Man patted his chest as he spoke, "Our dart bureau has been recruiting temporary dart masters recently, and the same as the official messenger, they are all going in the direction of Jiangzhou and Chuzhou, and the money given is definitely better than-"

"Get out of the way." The middle-aged man glanced at him and whispered.

The scarred man's voice stopped abruptly, and he stepped back to the side in understanding.

The middle-aged man walked steadily to the lobby of the inn.

At this moment, there were no empty tables in the hall, he looked left and right, and finally sat down next to the gold-leafed boy.

Bai Ling's gaze looked back at the inn, which seemed to be eerily silent.

I see...... That makes a lot of sense.

The reason why this area is so quiet is because this inn was requisitioned by the official family tonight to recruit co-operatives to go to Jiangzhou and Chuzhou.

Bai Ling frowned and thought for a moment, and without waiting for the scar man on the side to speak, he followed the middle-aged man's steps into the lobby.

Scar Man let out a snort behind her, but Bai Ling ignored it.

After she entered the house, she looked left and right for a while, and finally sat down opposite the uncle, next to the young man.

The middle-aged uncle glanced at her, then withdrew his gaze and simply closed his eyes.

After a while, Xiao Er came up with a pot of tea and a cup, he put the teapot and cup in front of the young man, and when he was about to retreat, the young man suddenly said, "Eh, shopkeeper, bring two more cups, there are three people at our table!" ”

Xiao Er was about to answer, but the middle-aged man opened his eyes slightly, "Thank you, no need." ”

Bai Ling also followed suit, "Thank you, I don't need to." ”

The boy was a little strange, "...... Are you not thirsty? ”

The middle-aged man didn't answer, Bai Ling thought about it, and remained silent.

"The tea here is too expensive, just such a pot of jasmine costs a tael of silver. But fortunately, they said that the follow-up water does not cost money, so you can drink as much as you want. The young man smiled, "My name is Li Yiru, a native of Shuzhou, what about you?" ”

No one answered.

There was an awkward silence on the table.

The young man frowned in confusion...... Although he didn't speak loudly just now, it was quiet here and here, and the two of them must have heard it.

He looked at the uncle on his left, and then at Bai Ling on his right, and his throat moved.

Then, his gaze suddenly fell on Bai Ling again.

The more he looked, the tighter the boy's brow furrowed.

After a while, he finally hesitated to speak again, "...... Have we met somewhere? You're so familiar, it seems. ”

Bai Ling laughed and said softly, "You fell outside just now, do you remember?" ”

"Oh oh oh ......" the young man reacted, "It turns out that you are also here to enlist in the government to assist in the army, I thought I was late, and I was in a hurry, I am really embarrassed." ”

"It's fine." Bai Ling said softly.

She looked at the middle-aged man in the opposite seat, and the eldest brother closed his eyes again, obviously not intending to participate in any conversation.

After a while, a fat man dressed in a servant's robe walked from the back hall of the inn.

He coughed, "Everyone is here, right?" ”
