Chapter 270: The plan to enter the mountain is blocked
Xia Sihan bowed his head slightly, "I can also see that the fabrics on their bodies are all of the highest quality, and although the colors are dull, the patterns and brocades are also of the highest quality." And their boots, all of them are leather boots, and they are boots customized by the government. You say, the average businessman wears a sword and official boots? ”
Xia Sihan saw the clue at a glance, and Xiao Jiu was impressed by this owner once and admired it very much.
"Owner, it's not surprising that we can see it when we walk in the rivers and lakes all year round, I can't imagine that your eyes are so sharp."
Xia Sihan just smiled slightly, "I can still see the fabric, but these people are beyond my expectations, they still come out at this time, what kind of business makes them pay so much attention?" ”
Xiao Jiu whispered in her ear, and Xia Sihan's eyes tightened!
"Really?!"
Xiao Jiu nodded, "Just now I took a look at their matching swords, and I was sure that they were the secret guards in the palace, but I am afraid that it is not a business, and it is estimated that they are also here to find the son." But we'd better not go the same way, and look at the tone of their words, which doesn't seem to be so attentive. ”
"Don't count on them, the people in the palace may not want Jin Yan to live."
Xia Sihan knew very well that Murong Zhao had already said that he would send several groups of people to look for him, but how many of these groups of people were from the emperor, and how many were the henchmen of other nobles in the palace?
It's better to ask for others than for yourself, isn't the reason why she came here because she didn't dare to count on them?
Xiao Jiu admired it in her heart when she heard this, from the first time she saw the owner, she felt that this woman was not simple, Xia Sihan's performance surprised her along the way, she really didn't see the wrong person.
The two went upstairs after dinner, Xiao Er sent hot water, and Xia Sihan and Xiao Jiu were finally able to lie down and rest after washing.
"Owner, look at the sky, I'm afraid it will snow heavily tomorrow."
Lying on the bed before going to bed, Xia Sihan got up when he heard Xiao Jiu's voice, and looked out through the window, the sky had begun to fall snowflakes, if it was tonight and all night, he would definitely not be able to enter the mountain tomorrow.
"So I have to wait, but I can't wait too long, anyway, the snow-capped mountains are covered with snow all year round."
Xia Sihan said this, but in fact, he was already anxious in his heart, if he delayed for a long time, Jin Yan was afraid that he would not be able to wait. Her heart sank to the bottom, Xiao Jiu closed her eyes on the side to recuperate, whether she can enter the mountain smoothly tomorrow depends on whether God favors her.
This night, the north wind was howling outside, and although it was warm inside, Xia Sihan's heart was always cold.
Sleepless all night, the first thing she did when she got up the next morning was to open the window, and when she saw the snowflakes flying in the sky, Xia Sihan sighed deeply, it seems that she can't go today.
"Owner, let's repair the inn for a day today, and if it stops tomorrow, we'll set off again."
"Well, that's all there is to it. It's been a few days of hard work! ”
Xia Sihan packed up and followed Xiao Jiu downstairs, the group of businessmen had come down yesterday, and when they saw Xia Sihan and the two coming out, the boss led by them kept staring at them.
"Two little brothers, come over for a drink if you don't mind?"
Xia Sihan and Xiao Jiu glanced at each other, nodded and walked over.
"Listening to the accent of the little brother, it should be from the capital, I don't know what kind of business the little brother does?"
As soon as Xia Sihan sat down, she heard the man ask her.
Xia Sihan just smiled lightly, his face was very humble, and said bluntly: "The two of us came this time to prepare to go into the mountains to find people, don't hide it from the eldest brother, my cousin is in the team of relatives, a few days ago, I suddenly heard that my brother disappeared in the snowy mountains, the two of us want to try our luck and see if we can find our cousin, even if it is a corpse." ”
A trace of sadness flashed in Xia Sihan's eyes as he spoke, and the man sighed after hearing it: "Your brotherhood is admirable, but the snow mountain is dangerous, I'm afraid that that brother is long gone, I advise you not to take this risk, so as not to lose your life in vain!" ”
"What the eldest brother said is true, but our brother has no parents since he was a child, and it was his cousin who helped us, and now he is in trouble, and we can't turn a blind eye."
Xia Sihan's words were sincere, and the man nodded again and again after hearing this, and glanced at each other with his subordinates, and then let down his guard.
"I don't know where the big brothers got rich? When I came in yesterday, I heard that the eldest brother was doing business, and there was still business to do on this snowy mountain? ”
Xia Sihan deliberately pretended to be ignorant, causing the man to laugh, he looked around and pretended to be mysterious: "Actually, I also came to find someone, but this heavy snow covers the mountain, even if you want to find it, you can't get in!" ”
"I see, it seems that this time I am in harmony, this Jade Dragon Snow Mountain has caused many people to be trapped, and I don't know if the court will send someone to rescue, the princess is a daughter, such a big wind and snow, hey~~~"
Xia Sihan's heart tightened, although it was to trap their words, but in the end, it was a feeling, thinking of Li Jinyan, I don't know if he can survive here.
When the man heard this, he didn't speak anymore, but asked for a drink, Xia Sihan didn't dare to be greedy, so he drank two glasses with him in the morning and went out. Standing at the door of the inn, you can see the way up the mountain, and Xia Sihan's heart is tightly pinched.
"You say, with such a big snowstorm, can he survive if he is injured?"
Xia Sihan muttered, Xiao Jiu stood beside her, her heart tingled, and she didn't know how to comfort her.
"East ...... Big brother, we will definitely find my brother, and when the wind and snow stop, we will see if there is anyone familiar with the route who can take us into the mountains. ”
Xiao Jiu's words attracted Xiao Er's sideways, and he hurried over and said: "At this time, I'm afraid that no one is willing to take you into the mountain, it's almost the New Year, look at this ghost weather, who would take such a big risk because of those few silver!" ”
Xia Sihan's eyes lit up, and he turned around and asked the little two: "You mean, there was originally a guide here?" ”
"No, there was a local guide in the team, but he didn't come back. The guy who drank at the back was the guide, but at the moment he would definitely not set off, this guy was so greedy for wine, and the wine he brought was gone in less than half the way, and he couldn't get to the end every time. ”
His words rekindled Xia Sihan's hope, he likes to drink, no problem! She has space to save as much as she wants!
Xia Sihan looked back at the table near the stairs in the inn, Xiao Er was probably talking about that person, right? Yesterday I didn't find such a person.
Xia Sihan motioned to Xiao Jiu, and the two walked over together, only to smell the smell of wine on his body when they got closer.
The person's position was at the bottom of the stairs, which was actually a low stool, and if Xiao Er didn't say it, she wouldn't have seen that there was still a person sitting here.
"Uncle?"
Xia Sihan's voice made the merchants also look over, and she deliberately asked cautiously: "Uncle, may I ask if Uncle can take our two brothers into the mountains to find people, there is enough wine." ”
The drunkard looked at her half-squinted, closed his eyes again, and ignored her at all, just tapped his fingers on the low stool, looking drunk and dreaming of death, making people want to get angry and lose their temper.
