After Lilu and the others attacked, in the next few days, Shen Ming and the others did not deliberately speed up or slow down the others, and maintained a normal speed all the way to the southeast.

"Brother Shen, the horse is a little tired, there is a river in front of you, let's rest. ”

Maybe when it comes to cultivation as martial arts, Lin Kuohai is not Shen Ming's opponent, but when it comes to walking the rivers and lakes and his experience in the wild, Lin Kuohai is obviously a lot more professional.

Hearing Lin Kuohai say this, Shen Ming nodded and replied, "It's okay!"

The four of them rode forward for a while, and sure enough, they saw a river flowing down the river in front of them, and the water was crystal clear, like a silver belt standing horizontally in front of them.

Shen Ming got off the horse, found a piece of bluestone at random and sat down, Ah Duoer immediately stepped forward to lead the horse to the river to drink, these days, under the guidance of Ah Qi, although Ah Duoer still has some careful thoughts from time to time, but in the role of a maid, I have to say that she is getting more and more adapted.

Lin Kuohai put the horse by the river and let him drink by himself, then came to sit down next to Shen Ming, looked at Ah Duo'er, who was slowly practicing by the river again, and sighed.

"Brother Shen, this girl is really hard at practicing, these days, I see that she starts practicing as soon as she has free time, such a hard-working person is really rare. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Kuohai sighed with emotion, "Hey, if that kid in my family is half as diligent as this girl, I will be content." ”

For Lin Kuohai's praise, Shen Ming smiled, Ah Duo'er's careful thinking, he had already seen through it, it was nothing more than worried that he was not as good as the half-alluring city, and intended to show the half-alluring city's martial arts in front of him, Shen Ming just saw that she was also kind, so he didn't want to expose it.

Shen Ming said, "What's the matter, Brother Lin's son doesn't practice diligently?"

Lin Kuohai smiled bitterly, "What's more, that kid has good qualifications, he practiced martial arts with me for a while when he was young, but then somehow he became obsessed with reading, if I hadn't forced him to practice, he wouldn't have touched it, and when he went back this time, he would definitely be able to get him out of the study." ”

People have their own ambitions, it's not easy to force them, and Shen Ming doesn't want to comment on this matter, I don't know what to say, but fortunately, Lin Kuohai didn't dwell on this matter, and opened his mouth to divert the topic.

"Half a day's journey to Chicheng, and in the afternoon we have to make some hass, trying to get there before dark. ”

Shen Ming nodded, "Okay, Brother Lin, you are experienced, and the arrangement is." ”

In this way, the two chatted about the past again, most of the time Lin Kuohai was talking, Shen Ming was listening, and asked from time to time, and when they were almost rested, Lin Kuohai stood up and greeted Ah Qi and the two of them by the river.

"It's almost time to rest, it's time to hurry, and try to get to Chicheng before dark. ”

......

Lin Kuohai is worthy of being a perennial dart and has rich experience, Shen Ming and the four of them rode their horses to hurry, and when they arrived at Chicheng, it was almost dusk, and they entered the city just before the city gate was closed.

There are six precepts for people who walk darts in the rivers and lakes, three of which are related to inns.

One does not live in a store that has changed owners, two does not live in a newly built store, and three does not live in a store that provides special services.

Lin Kuohai is naturally no exception, he has been walking darts for many years, and he has a familiar inn to rest.

Joy Inn.

Shen Ming looked up at the signboard of the inn and asked with some curiosity.

"Brother Lin, what is the origin of the owner of this Yuelai Inn? The power seems to be quite big, how can we see the shadow of this inn when we go all the way. ”

Lin Kuohai was surprised: "Brother Shen, you don't even know this?"

Shen Ming asked, "What's the matter?"

Hearing Shen Ming say this, even Ah Duo'er looked at Shen Ming with a strange look, and said that this kind of big thing, even she, a Tubo person, knew it, how could Shen Ming, an authentic Central Plains person, not know.

Aduoer said strangely: "Master, you shouldn't have just come out of that deep mountain and old forest, otherwise how could you not even know about the rivers and lakes Bai Xiaosheng?"

Shen Ming said, "Oh, what's the matter?"

Ah Qi knew Shen Ming's situation, glanced at Ah Duo'er, and talked about Bai Xiaosheng's origin.

Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes, this person's name also began to spread more than 20 years ago, what his real name is unknown, when he debuted, he was known as the middle of the rivers and lakes, no matter how big or small, there was nothing he didn't know.

People in the rivers and lakes, no matter how high or low, there is no one whose martial arts he does not know and cannot break.

This kind of wild talk naturally caused many people to be unconvinced, and many people in the rivers and lakes threatened to teach him a lesson, but the next thing that happened made them completely convinced of this person, and even respected him like a god.

Twenty-seven years ago, that is, in the second year of Tiansheng, a booklet began to circulate on the rivers and lakes, which recorded several famous people in the rivers and lakes, their life history, martial arts paths, and methods of cracking were recorded on it one by one, and the signature of this booklet was Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes.

At that time, it was one thing that most people didn't take this booklet seriously, but they couldn't help but have people with good deeds, and they really killed the people in the booklet according to the method Bai Xiaosheng said, and they really succeeded.

And then, it is conceivable that those who are in the rivers and lakes do not have a few enemies, and the people on the book are killed one after another, and even the first swordsman in the south who has reached the realm of the great master at that time was besieged to death.

The name of Bai Xiaosheng in the rivers and lakes has also been completely spread all over the rivers and lakes through the corpses of these famous people in the rivers and lakes.

And through this incident, Bai Xiaosheng himself is also known as the most unprovoked person in the rivers and lakes, who dares to provoke this method of killing people without seeing blood.

After listening to Ah Qi's introduction, Shen Ming narrowed his eyes, became interested, and had already made a decision in his heart.

Is there anything he doesn't know about the affairs of the rivers and lakes? If you have time, you really have time to meet this person.

"This Yuelai Inn was founded by Bai Xiaosheng twenty-four years ago, no matter what kind of Jiangyang thief you are, or a heroic swordsman, when you enter this store, you have to abide by his rules, the rules are simple, the grievances of the rivers and lakes, you are not allowed to bring them into the inn, at that time, Bai Xiaosheng's reputation was in full swing, naturally no one dared to disobey the rules, and this inn was opened. ”

Lin Kuohai continued to introduce, and when it came to this, he was also a little emotional.

"And the next means are really powerful, Bai Xiaosheng took advantage of the signboard of the Yuelai Inn, and said in the rivers and lakes that anyone who is willing to rename the inn 'Yuelai Inn', and hand over a certain share of the inn's income every year, and abide by the rules he set, the inn will be protected by him, and only choose one in each city, so that there are naturally many followers. ”

Shen Ming said: "I see, it's no wonder that Brother Lin has chosen the Yuelai Inn all the way, but what if someone stays in the inn and stays in the inn in order to avoid the enemy?"

Lin Kuohai smiled, "Then you have to have so much silver, the rent of this Yuelai Inn is more expensive than that of ordinary inns for the first three days, but after three days, the daily rent will double the previous price, so who can rent here all year round." ”

Shen Ming praised: "Good means!"

Lin Kuohai replied: "It's really a good means, Bai Xiaosheng not only made a fortune in the rivers and lakes with this trick, but also won a lot of people's hearts, who doesn't want a stable foothold, even if it is more expensive, so Yuelai Inn has also become the first choice for people in the rivers and lakes?"
