Chapter 3: It's not easy for the boss to be sincere
That's how life goes. Those hardships that once stood in front of us like a thousand mountains, when they are looked back after a thousand sails, are just ordinary ripples like puddles of water.
There is a curfew in the whole city of Fengdu, which makes the group wait somewhat uncomfortable. Not to mention a restaurant, it's hard to find an inn. All the shops were closed early, and the entire imperial city was as dead as an empty city.
However, this did not dampen the excitement of Little Mushroom, and she ran around Du Yuanyuan's left and right sides, overjoyed, compared to Fluttershy's excitement, Huang Ying was much more lonely and quiet, although she also had a trace of curiosity about Fengdu, but the heavy loss in her heart wiped out all her emotions.
However, the path was chosen by herself. Even if you kneel, you can only walk.
Little Gray also saw that her sister was depressed, and she wanted to comfort her but didn't know how to say it, so she just stayed by her side silently. Fu Rong and Fu Feng and Han Li wandered behind, quite sassy, and they were also looking for restaurants everywhere. No matter what happens later, let's have a good taste of the wine of the ghost world first.
In the huge imperial city, except for the flickering lights and patrolling guards, it seems that there are only a few of them. Du Yuanyuan scratched his head a little, smacked his lips and said, "What's the situation, there is not even a place to open the door, it is difficult for us to sleep on the road." ”
"Brother White."
"Brother Bai! Stop nagging. ”
Xiao Cheng helplessly glanced at Bai Wei, who was chatting with Shi Nu on the side, although Shi Nu was indeed Qiantu's body, but after all, the Yuan Shen had been dispersed, and if it went on like this, he was really a little worried about Bai Wei. The longing for a deceased friend can torment a good person out of his mind. What's more, Shi Nu was right in front of him, even if his face was swollen, he could still vaguely see Xue Qiantu's appearance. This is the real end of the world.
"Quick, help find it." In order to distract Bai Wei's attention, Du Yuan urged.
"Qiantu, I'll look for the inn tavern first, and we'll talk about it later." Bai Wei said to Shi Nu and looked around, "There is a situation." ”
"What?!" Du said vigilantly.
"The exact location of this seat has not yet been discovered."
“……”
When it is, Shone Mushroom stretches out two small bamboo shoot-like arms at Du and shouts, "Daddy hug me, Fluttershy can't walk." ”
"You're going to be fooled by what kind of way! No, I'm not free, didn't I see that I was holding you Uncle Qingye. As he spoke, he also rubbed Xiao Mojun who poked his head out of the placket twice, "Let's not hug her, let's hug you." ”
"Eccentricity." Little Mushroom muttered, "Cut, don't hug and pull down, I'll go to Brother Furong." ”
"Go quickly, little girl, you are good, you have finally done something sensible."
"Dead Daddy!"
Fluttershy turns and runs away, giving up on the darkness and turning to the light. The dark mid-air of the imperial city was filled with strange bird calls, like nightingales and vultures. A few people walked forward for a while, and Du Yuanyuan suddenly stopped moving, and sneered, "Come out, aren't you tired of sneaky." ”
Bai Wei looked around, but he didn't see half a shadow, "Xiao Cheng, who are you talking about?" ”
"Who I say, who knows." Du Yuanyuan froze, and immediately raised his voice and shouted, "Get out!" ”
Immediately, a dark shadow flashed in the corner of the wall on the west side, and in a blink of an eye, it was in front of him.
The man was dressed in pitch black and wore a hood on his head, which obscured his entire face. For a long time, he just poked in front of them silently, without saying a word.
"Say, what are you doing with us?" Xiao Du said coldly.
There was no answer. The man's face was hidden deep under the hood, leaving only a dark shadow.
"Don't say yes." Xiao Du was about to punch him over, but he didn't think about the moment of lightning, only heard a plop, and the man suddenly fell to the ground on one knee, his head was extremely low, his shoulders trembled, and he looked extremely emotional.
This inexplicable move startled Du Yuanyuan and several people, and subconsciously took half a step back.
The moon is dark and the wind is high. The footsteps of the guards patrolling in the distance echoed in unison.
Immediately, the mysterious man slowly raised his head, but under the moonlight, he saw his eyes sparkling and crying.
This made Xiao Du even more surprised, and suddenly, the person who fell to the ground hugged Du Yuanyuan's leg and begged miserably, "This big brother, please take care of the business of the small shop!" ”
…… Du Yuanyuan got stuck, he hadn't seen it before, but it was the first time he had reached this realm. "If you have something to say, get up." As he spoke, he picked the man up, frowned and asked, "Are you a merchant near here?" ”
The man in black nodded hatefully, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and sighed, "Yes, don't hide it from a few guest officials, the little one is the owner of the Ruyi Inn, it has been several months since the curfew in the imperial city, and the family is almost unable to eat, and I have no other skills, I really don't know what to do......" As he spoke, he burst into tears again, and he saw that Du Yuan's heart was not a good feeling for a while, they were all working people, and the officials naturally didn't care about these, it was the people in the city.
"But I've just seen a lot of people entering the city." Xiao Du was puzzled.
"They all came back home, and they are residents of Fengdu." The innkeeper explained, "It's been a long time since I've seen merchants from other places, and even if there is, it's not my turn to be in my small shop, and I used to rely on diligence, and I opened it day and night when others closed the store, earning a few hard-earned money, but now it's ...... Alas! As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Du and them with hopeful eyes, "A few big brothers, let's go to my store for a night's rest, the refreshments don't cost money, and they will be given to you for free." ”
"No, no, you can do whatever it wants, it's not easy for you, anyway, a few of us are going to live in the hotel, and I'm worried that I can't find it, it's just the right time for you to have a thick line." Xiao Du smiled, his eyes flashed, and he half-jokingly said, "Brother, you won't be Sun Erniang's shop." ”
"Huh?" The man in black was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head again and again, "My lady's surname is Wang, not Sun." ”
"Haha." Du Yuanyuan patted him on the shoulder, looking at him very honestly, not like a person who opened a black shop, "Let's go, let's go, we always have to be careful when we go out, you say yes." ”
"Uh-huh! That's what it is. The innkeeper nodded in agreement, "Thank you for your face, please here." ”
There was nothing to say here, and a few people followed the man in black to the west side of the street. The inn is not big, as the boss said, it is purely a small business, but the environment is quite clean, and the cleaning is also neat, it is really a guest no, except for a small two who run the hall, I didn't see other guys.
Seeing that the inn was deserted, Du Yuanyuan crossed his waist and asked, "Boss, do you have any food and wine here?" ”
"Yes, yes." The boss was afraid that a few of them would run away, "A few big brothers want to eat something, I'll do it." ”
"Food, just take a whole bite, but wine, it's good."
"Big brother, don't worry, I don't dare to boast about anything else in my store, but if you say this wine, it is absolutely first-class." The boss beckoned them to sit down and said, "I'll go first and change my clothes, and I'll do the work for a few people." ”
(I'm sorry friends, I thought that the double watch would be resumed on the eighth day of the new year, but the work after the festival is about to come and the wind is full of buildings...... I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise this time, and I have to change it at the end of this month...... In a thousand words, I'm sorry, I always have to save my job first...... Haihan Haihan ...... )
