CHAPTER XXVII

Just as Mansha and Cang Wunian were returning the same way, An Ruyue had already seen them in the distance, and after jumping in front of them in three steps and two steps, she happily led the two to the place where they had just found a place to stay.

This is a very ordinary inn, and the name of the inn is also very ordinary, it is called "Shaoyang Inn". One of the reasons why An Ruyue and the others chose such an ordinary inn was that they had been poor for the past two years, and they finally had some money to save money, and they couldn't afford to live in a too high-end inn. Another reason is that if you rent for a long time, the inn also offers discounts, drinks and food are not expensive, and there are people in the inn who take care of the horses.

You don't have to make your own food every day, the house is cleaned, and the horses are raised, no matter how you think about it, An Ruyue feels that this deal is very cost-effective.

The sun was already setting when he entered the inn, but what made Mansha feel strange was that there were still many people outside in this town when the sun was about to set, and there were more stalls on the streets.

Thinking that they had barely eaten today, Mansha and the others sat down in the place where the guests were entertained on the first floor of the inn.

As soon as he saw someone sitting down, he immediately trotted over and asked earnestly, "What do you want to eat?"

An Ruyue looked at Mansha and then at Cang Wunian, and seeing that neither of them meant to speak, she thought about it and said, "Just have a few side dishes." ”

Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I see that these four eldest brothers are extraordinary, don't you plan to have some wine......?

An Ruyue saw that the little two in this shop could speak well, if she had just entered the human world, she would definitely order ten altars and eight altars without hesitation, at the beginning, they were really fooled by a group of seven people, not to mention that the price of the wine was expensive, but it was really not very good to drink, not a little worse than the wine of their Shura clan.

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, An Ruyue smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Little second brother, there is no need for wine, you can just bring us a pot of good tea." ”

The shopkeeper didn't show a disappointed look in his eyes, as if he had long been accustomed to all kinds of guests, so he just heard him say aloud: "Okay! A few guest officers, please wait, the side dishes and tea will be delivered immediately." ”

Just after An Ruyue finished ordering the food, the dining place on the first floor was filled with people one after another, this scene made Mansha a few people a little puzzled, after all, this is an inn, not a restaurant specializing in selling wine and food, isn't it that the food in the restaurants around here is too expensive, and the guests outside come here to eat?

When the shopkeeper came to their table again to bring the side dishes and tea, Mansha asked, "Little second brother, do you usually have so many people who come to eat in this inn?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "A few of them are in a hurry to forget the day, right? Today is the Midyear Festival, and there are many people who come from other small villages to join in the fun, so most of the other restaurants have already been booked, otherwise it will not be the turn to come to our small inn to eat." ”

"Midyear Festival?" An Ruyue and Mansha were both confused.

Seeing that a few people not only did not show a sudden realization, but their faces were suspicious, the shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment, how could there be people who didn't know about the Midyear Festival?

Mansha reacted first and hurriedly said: "Oh, our hometown is far from here, and the customs and names may be different, don't mind this little brother." ”

"Oh...... A few of them shouldn't have come from other countries, our Shaoyang Town belongs to Wansang Country, and the entire Wansang Country relies on the source of the Luo River. It is said that after crossing the west bank of the Luo River is the endless East China Sea, and after crossing the East China Sea and further west, there is Mount Meru where the gods live on the top of the mountain...... "The shopkeeper saw that the guests in front of him didn't seem to know anything, so he couldn't help but talk eloquently.

"Oh, I see. May I ask the second brother, are there any painters in your town who are good at danqing?" Mansha saw that the shopkeeper seemed to be very enthusiastic, so he asked while the iron was hot.

The shopkeeper scratched his head, a little puzzled by how the beautiful lady in front of him could think so out, but after thinking about it, he still replied: "There is a tavern in the easternmost part of the town, and I heard that a foreigner came here half a year, and he often soaked in the tavern for a day. According to those who came and went in the tavern, the foreigner was good at writing and drawing, and if you gave him a pot of Yuquan brew, he would be able to help you draw a small portrait of a person. As for the grass and trees, I don't know if he will be able to. ”

"Okay, I see, thank you little brother. Mansha suppressed the joy in his heart, and took out a few copper coins and handed them to the shopkeeper as a thank you.

The shopkeeper happily took the reward and thanked him, and when he saw that Mansha didn't want to ask anything more, he turned around and greeted other guests.

"Is the king planning to meet that stranger?" Seeing the shopkeeper leaving, An Ruyue leaned closer to Mansha and asked in a low voice.

"That's natural, we have been looking for three years and have no clue, and now it seems that we can only look for those painting masters in the folk to see if we can ask some clues. Mansha replied in a low voice.

After a few people finished eating, Mansha originally planned to go back to the room to rest, but she saw An Ruyue staring at the door of the inn with her eyes, it seemed that she was still childlike, and as soon as she heard about the festival in the world, she couldn't help but want to go out and have a good time.

"Ruyue, go if you want, come back early. Mansa said with a light smile.

"Madame...... It's so boring for me to go alone, why don't you and the young master go with me, anyway, it's still early, it's so lively outside, and I can't rest when I go back to the house now. An Ruyue looked pitiful and coquettish.

Mansha smiled helplessly and shook her head, although she looked like a mortal woman in her early twenties, but after all, she had lived for more than 2,000 years, and she had been the queen of Shura for more than 1,000 years, and she was no longer a girl after all.

Seeing Mansha's hesitation, An Ruyue turned her inquiring gaze to Cang Wunian again, but when she saw Su Pa covered in front of Cang Wunian's eyes, she suddenly realized that her gaze was in vain, how could the little prince see her every move when she was blindfolded.

But to An Ruyue's surprise, Cang Wunian seemed to see her longing eyes through the veil, and actually said lightly: "Then let's go and have a look." ”
