Forty-fourth Wind and Dust Inn
The two of them stepped on the fern hills, one deep and one shallow, towards the darker forest, and in a short time disappeared in the mottled and intertwined leafy leaves. Strange to say, Hua Youyou followed behind Jiang Wangchen, and did not hear half a hissing insect chirping, and those insects and snakes that annoyed the flower demon seemed to avoid Jiang Wangchen. Hua Youyou was happy in her heart and asked, "Jiang Wangchen, these little insects seem to be afraid of you!"
"Yes, I'll tell you a secret, since I was a child, I found that my body is invulnerable to snakes and insects, and my physical strength and recovery ability are far superior to ordinary people. ”
"Really?" Hua Youyou asked again, "Then you didn't ask your parents why?"
"Why didn't they ask, they just said that I was born and that's it, just reminded me not to tell anyone about it. Later, I asked a few more times, but I still got the same answer, so I didn't ask again. ”
Although he has only known Jiang Wangchen for a few days, and he is a ladyboy with a different path, but the chances of these few days have been a coincidence together, and life and death depend on each other. Between the two people, a deep friendship has been built unconsciously, so Jiang Wangchen told the secret in his heart frankly.
The two of them walked for a long time, and finally left behind the foggy frost and steaming shrubs and jungles, and what appeared in front of them was a clear stream, the gurgling stream flowed over the boulders, kissed the moss, and emitted a beautiful dingdong melody, which played in concert with the crisp song of the forest birds, which was really a good sound. The spring breeze is playful, sweeping through the green shade, with the fragrance of grass, and drying the sticky sweat stains on the body, refreshing the heart. Jiang Wangchen picked up a handful of water with both hands. The stream water enters the abdomen from the lips, sweet as licorice, and cold and moist, and immediately refreshed. Jiang Wangchen poured a few more sips in a row, and finally was very satisfied, lying motionless on the rock.
Hua Youyou tidied up her clothes, slowly ripped off the ears that were tied into her hair, and skillfully made green silk with soft wattles, until the mist and sideburns turned into a waterfall like silk, then stopped, and learned the appearance of Jiang Wangchen scooping water, tasting lightly, feeling cool. The two of them took a break and chatted, and Hua Youyu asked, "Jiang Wangchen, what color do you like the most?"
"What's my favorite color?
Hua Yu secretly rejoiced, and looked forward to it a little: "Why?"
"Because my mother often wears purple clothes, I feel that purple is very warm, and blue is also good, in my heart blue is the vastness of the sky, the endless swimming of the sea. ”
Jiang Wangchen closed his eyes again after he finished speaking, Hua Youyou couldn't wait for his rhetorical question, and said angrily: "You are a stupid wood, why don't you ask me?"
"What do I ask you?"
"Whatever you want, you can ask anything. ”
"There are thirty chickens and rabbits in cages, and eighty-eight of their feet are made, so what kind of materials are the cages made of?"
Hua Youyou didn't want to say anything, so she directly picked up a piece of gravel and threw it at Jiang Wangchen, only to hear Jiang Wangchen's "ouch": "Why are you hitting me with a stone?"
"Is this the question you should ask when talking to a girl?"
Jiang Wangchen asked rhetorically: "Then what questions should I ask when chatting with girls?"
"Forget it" Hua Youyu couldn't get angry, stood up and stomped his right foot, and said, "How long will it take to get to Yancheng." ”
Jiang Wangchen looked at the sky, the sunset was shining, the snow geese were returning to the south, and the sunset was soft and sprinkled with warm afterglow, which was very pleasant. He got up and said, "It's not far away, and the rest of the road is relatively flat, so let's go and enter before the city gate closes." ”
The two set off again, along the grass road by the stream, walked leisurely, and finally stepped on the dusk when the last beam of afterglow was cut, and came to Yancheng, although Yancheng did not have Jiang Wangchen's wanted warrant, but he did not dare to be too ostentatious through the market, the two rushed to the ready-to-wear shop before the end of the market, Jiang Wangchen took off his uniform, changed into a set of civilian clothes, and coiled his hair up, but there were some differences from before, and he really couldn't find the change if he didn't look closely.
The sun sets and the moon rises, the night falls, the lights of the city are on, every city is a river and lake, and the center of the storm of the rivers and lakes is the inn in the city. At this time, most of the shops have closed, but in the Wind and Dust Inn, it ushered in the highest peak of the day, and on the eight immortal tables in the inn, the war has begun. A seven-foot man over there made a big bowl, put down another piece of ham and said loudly: "This Ling family is really big, a hundred days banquet invited half of Yancheng, the major wealthy families, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes are among them." A sharp-mouthed thin man at the next table then interjected: "That's not it, this Ling family controls the mining of Jingyan Stone, and naturally has a wide range of financial resources and rich wealth." The big man replied, "I heard that this time people from the border city will also come to the banquet. ”
The thin man was brought up with interest, and asked in a weird manner: "Isn't He Tianyong, the city lord over there, never associated with the Ling family?"
On the single seat in the corner, a curious traveler asked, "Then why don't these two families get along?"
When the thin man heard this, he replied enthusiastically: "It seems that this old iron is a foreigner, and I heard that this is a conflict formed when they were young. As for what Liangzi is, we ordinary people don't know. ”
The traveler asked again, "Since there has been no contact before, why did the city lord of the border city come this time?"
The thin man picked two peanuts, stopped at the corner of the desk with his right hand, glanced at the corner of his eye, and saw that the people in the inn were looking at him, and it was not good to be silent, so he said: "I really don't know this." ”
Everyone was disappointed by the thin man's indifferent explanations, and they were busy in the midst of a boo.
At this moment, in the corner, a deep voice deliberately lowered and said: "It should be that there is a demon clan attacking in the border city, so I came to Yancheng to ask for help." The word "demon clan" has long disappeared from the world of ordinary people for a long time, and today it has been mentioned again, which inevitably seems real and noisy. The inn fell silent for a moment, and the owner of the voice stood up again, it turned out to be a middle-aged man, looking at his dark skin and ragged clothes, it seemed that he had been running around all the year round, exposed to the wind and sun, although the ink-colored sacrificial clothes had been old and faded, but the sun and moon logo embroidered on his arm was still as blue as new, and it turned out to be a missionary of the Illuminati.
The middle-aged man continued: "But it doesn't matter, according to reliable information, the demon clan was repelled by the border guards near Dongdushan. It's just that the border guards have also lost some men. ”
When everyone heard this, it turned out to be just a false alarm, and they chatted freely, and the middle-aged man was not idle, and took this opportunity to throw stabs at the guests, hoping to win over some new believers. Soon the whole inn fell into a hustle and bustle again, and the story of the rivers and lakes continued.
As soon as Jiang Wangchen and Hua Youyou stepped into the inn, a shopkeeper came over, looked at the dusty two, and asked enthusiastically: "The two of you are objectively inside, please, I don't know if the two of you are objectively sharpened or live in the hotel?"
Hua Youyou replied, "Stay in the hotel." ”
The shopkeeper led the two to the counter again: "The shopkeeper, these two guest officers want to stay in the hotel." ”
The shopkeeper had a smile on his face, rubbed his hands, and said: "Two guest officers, I'm really sorry, there is only one Japanese No. 9 room left in the inn at present, I wonder if the two of you can just take a break?"
Hua Youyou said happily: "Okay! Then this ......"
The shopkeeper of "Haole ......" turned the Japanese No. 9 wooden card to the matte surface, hung a "haunted" card, and said to the shopkeeper: "Little Six, take the two guest officers to the Japanese No. 9 room, and go to make a pot of Chun Hongqiao that has just entered this spring for the two of them." ”
Jiang Wangchen whispered behind Hua Youyou: "It's just one room, how can you live?"
The corners of Hua Youyou's mouth were hooked, she smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "It's enough for me to sleep in one room, why isn't it enough to live?"
"Uh......" Jiang Wangchen knew that Hua Youyou was sulking again, and he didn't care, thinking that going to the firewood room at night would be just one night.
Xiao Liu saw that the two were arguing in a low voice, and he didn't dare to disturb, and then looked at the two of them, the man looked young, handsome, and restrained. The woman was dressed in purple, beautiful and dusty, like a fairy descending to earth, and saw her smiling coincidentally, like a spring breeze, and lost her mind for a while.
Hua Youyou said: "Little Liu, can you give us some wine and food first." Primary Six ......"
"Ahh......h Sister fairy, oh no, two objective here please. Xiao Liu came back to his senses in a panic, hurriedly responded, and felt that he was speechless in his mouth, blaspheming the sacredness and purity of the fairy in front of him, and hurriedly bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiao Liu is speechless, and I hope that the two objective Haihan!"
"Sister fairy?this title is not bad, I like it!Xiaoliu, then you will call your sister like this in the future!" Hua Youyou looked at the childish young man in front of him, and was in a good mood, and then looked at Jiang Wangchen next to him and said: "Xiaoliu is so clever, when he grows up, he will definitely like girls, but don't be like some people, like a dull tree, and can't even chat." ”
The corners of Jiang Wangchen's mouth twitched, and he could only hold the grievances in his heart: the eldest husband does not care about weak women.
Xiao Liu naturally understood what Hua Youyou meant, and laughed awkwardly at the moment, and said, "Then invite the two guest officers to come here." ”
The inn is already full, and it has just entered the night, presumably no one will leave, Xiao Liu led the two to a corner of a private seat, there are already two people seated on the elegant seat, but there happen to be two vacant, Xiao Liu smiled brightly, and said to the two people on the seat: "Two distinguished guests, can you just take a moment and set up a table with these two guest officers?"
The young man on the elegant seat didn't agree immediately, looked at Jiang Wangchen and Hua Youyou for a moment, smiled again, and said, "Of course you can!"
Jiang Wangchen hugged his fists and thanked him, and then sat down with Hua Youyou. Xiao Liu asked, "Sister fairy, I don't know what you want to eat." ”
"Do you have any specialties in your store?"
Xiao Liu cleared his throat and said quickly: "Our restaurant's signature dish is double pepper chicken, naturally needless to say, I personally recommend a 'flower cluster' for my sister, this dish is made of fresh squid body with cross carving, dipped in Jitu powder and fried, and finally poured with thick juice, the taste is fragrant and tender, the soup is full of umami, very suitable for appetizers, and then a crispy skin and meaty aroma, spicy 'crispy pig's trotters', as an appetizer that is very suitable." Finally, order a jar of aged osmanthus fragrance, which is the mellow and meaty aroma of wine, happy and free. ”
Hua Youyou said: "Little Liu, I didn't expect you to have a good study of diet......
"Sister Fairy doesn't understand, Xiaoliu had better cook before coming to work in the inn, if you want to be an apprentice, you have to work in the inn for at least two years. ”
"It turns out that there is still such a rule, Xiaoliu will serve the dishes according to the dishes you just said. ”
"Gotcha!" Xiao Liu was recognized by Hua Youyou, smiled and showed two tiger teeth, and said, "I'll serve wine to the fairy sister first, and then go to the back room to prepare wine and food!"
"Give Brother Jiang a pot of osmanthus fragrance, I, if I don't get a drop of wine, just bring me a pot of Tieguanyin." ”
Xiao Liu got the order and happily whistled and retreated.
