Chapter 231: News from the North

Ah Heng and Xiao Jin still underestimated the spending power of the refugees, they almost asked the best inns in the city, but they couldn't find a room, not to mention that the two of them also pretended to ask these inns for two upper rooms, so that the two of them could live separately.

At the beginning of the day, when they had almost lost all hope, they received a positive answer at a medium-sized inn. The chubby shopkeeper claimed that there was only one room left - Tianzi No. 1 room, which was elegant, spacious and bright, with a good view room, and it was not facing the street, which was an excellent place to be quiet in the middle of noisy. According to the above factors, coupled with the tight supply of housing, the price-shopkeeper raised two fat fingers, as if he knew Ah Heng's net worth-two taels of gold.

Ah Heng was shocked: "So expensive? It's more than ten times more expensive than those high-end inns just now——"

The shopkeeper seemed to have suffered a great insult: "We are a six-hundred-year-old shop, not to mention the elegant environment of Tianzi No. 1 room, spacious and bright—"

Ah Heng hurriedly stopped the other party's chatter, and thought maliciously that the reason why this inn still has rooms is still available is probably because it sold the highest price in the city with ordinary rooms. However, looking at Xiao Jin's tired face, he still handed over the pocket money he had just arrived.

The fat shopkeeper squeezed his eyebrows and said: "Don't worry, you live in this store, you are absolutely at home and worth the money." And the biggest feature of this store is that it has excellent sound insulation, and it is fully equipped with bathing facilities for many people at the same time, and it is equipped with rose aromatherapy."

As a close friend of a young master of Qinglou, how could Ah Heng not understand the meaning of this fat shopkeeper's words, the cheap smile on the other party's face was exactly the same as Fu Tianlou's. He glanced at Xiao Jin weakly, and hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt the other party's introduction, and pulled Xiao Jin to leave with the guys in the store.

The fat shopkeeper pouted, and he could see at a glance that these two people were not husband and wife, and now there were many refugees, most of them were wild mandarin ducks - but although the woman's appearance was ordinary, her waist was extremely attractive, and she was blind in the black light, and this man was blessed.

He weighed the gold leaf in his hand, and looked out of the hall expectantly, to see if he could catch a stupid and rich master again, and strive to take Tianzi No. 2 and No. 3...... The house also sells for a good price. Of course, whoever it is, this must be the last house.

The fat shopkeeper despised his peers who sold their rooms for cabbage, and although the price of the inn was now three times as high as usual, it was nothing compared to the sudden increase in purchasing power, and everyone should have risen to fifty times like him, no, the next one should be a hundred times, the shopkeeper thought to himself.

"Shopkeeper, give me a room," a young girl appeared in front of the shopkeeper prettyly, not bad, but not outstanding, but the enchantment in her bones was the same as the woman just now.

The fat shopkeeper smiled and looked at the other party in an instant, obviously this woman is the same as the two just now, and she is a master who can't wait to move in. He was happy in his heart, but his face was embarrassed: "It's not that the room is nothing, it's just—"

The girl's hand slapped lightly on the counter, and when the white and tender palm was removed, there were four more gold leaves.

The fat shopkeeper was stunned, does this woman know how to read minds, and she hasn't said the price yet?

"Without further ado, I need a room next to the two of them. ”

The fat shopkeeper grinned: "No problem, is it room No. 2 in Tianzi? I'll let someone take you over-" Listening to the other party's meaning, he pondered one or two: Could it be that this girl is here to catch the adulterer? It doesn't look like her age! Could it be the daughter of one of the two just now? It's not right! Then it's probably the pock-faced man and the old cow gnawing the tender grass, alas, it's really the wind of the world -- why don't you have such a blessing!

He slowly picked up the gold leaf, and was suddenly stunned, only to see a leaf pattern appear on the hard ironwood counter under the gold leaf, which was the same as the shape of the gold leaf. He immediately remembered the girl's gentle pat just now, and his heart suddenly shuddered.

......

In the No. 1 room of Tianzi, Ah Heng and Xiao Jin felt hungry after a short rest, and immediately went down to the first floor.

Although the inn can only be considered medium-sized, it has a very sophisticated layout, and the dining area is quite secluded, next to the small garden in the middle of the inn, through the hollowed out windows, you can see the pavilions and flowing water, and even a few rare clusters of evening chrysanthemums, blooming among the withered grass and trees.

There are not many people, only three or five tables.

The two sat down, and Xiao Jin ordered two home-cooked dishes like a housewife, both of which were affordable side dishes. Soon, the meal was complete, the two picked up the dishes and chopsticks, looked at the hot meal, and suddenly looked at each other and smiled very tacitly. Suddenly, a warm feeling spread through the fingertips, and this feeling was very strange, as if they had lived together for decades.

At this moment, they invariably remembered a sentence they had heard in the tribe: a chance encounter is destined for a lifetime. This is a phrase that the kind young patriarch often hangs on his lips. It's just that the world makes people, and that gentle man has been gone for ten years-

Ah Heng lowered his head and picked up the rice vigorously, he ate it very fast, and most of the bowl of rice was lost in a blink of an eye. Xiao Jin looked at Ah Heng's appearance, and suddenly laughed stupidly, at this moment, she had never felt at ease, and she was even willing to chew on this feeling for the rest of her life, even if it was so short-lived.

Xiao Jin suddenly took a dish with chopsticks and sent it to the other party's bowl, and said angrily: "You...... Eat slowly...... Choke carefully."

Ah Heng was stunned, raised his head, and happened to meet Xiao Jin's eyes full of tenderness and sweetness, and he was stupid for a while. All the worries that came out of thin air dissipated.

......

What they didn't notice was that in a hidden corner, a slightly ordinary-looking girl was slowly eating alone with her head down, even if it was an occasional glance that came over her. She is Lan Xin, but at this moment, her appearance is no different from that of an ordinary woman, and her eyes are even more indifferent. As a secret agent, she only shows up when she needs it.

At this moment, two more people suddenly walked in. Before they could sit down, a loud voice rang out.

I only heard one person: "Orc grandmother, I thought that only our empire had poured blood mold, one bad news after another." It turns out that the tribe of the undead is no better--the Prince of Twilight is ruthless, desperate, and crazy enough, not only controlling the chief senator, disbanding the senate, but also killing the heads of the city of Bruda - I think the undead tribe has produced this kind of madman, and it is not far from the country of death. "This person looks rough and haughty, wears a big ring on his hand, is dressed as a businessman, and has a lot of momentum between his gestures, most of which are wealthy businessmen who are wandering around.

Ah Heng and Xiao Jin's eyes were fixed, they glanced at each other, they had never heard of this news, most of it happened recently. I didn't expect that the God-given Republic thousands of miles away would have undergone such a big change. No wonder Loth let them go so easily!

Ah Heng was not too surprised by this news, after all, not long ago, the Knights of the Templars, the descendants of the Senate, had been destroyed. It is said that after Camerondo's formation was activated, the chief patriarch Hawkins was also punished by God, and most of this person had already been controlled by the dark forces. When he wakes up, if he wants to keep his power, he will have to do what the ambitious Prince Twilight says. With Prince Twilight in such a powerful mole, the gates of Bruda are almost completely open. Ah Heng suddenly remembered his father's fiasco back then, it is said that the Twilight clan's rebellion was a crucial factor in falling short, maybe this conspiracy began more than ten years ago.

Xiao Jin was thinking of the Elder Luoth who adopted her but single-handedly pushed her into the abyss of darkness, and Elder Luoth was the staunchest supporter and guardian of the God-given Republic. If what the rough man said is true, the republican ideals that Elder Lotus has adhered to for decades have evaporated, and where will she go from here?

Immediately, an even more terrifying idea arose for Xiao Jin - if Prince Twilight took control of Bruda City, what would her teacher, Master Odof, be one of the supporters of the republican system, and although he was not satisfied with what the Senate had done, he would definitely not submit to Prince Twilight. Where is he now—captured or escaped from Bruda?

At this time, I heard another person say again: "This is a fortunate thing, without the restraint of the God-given republic, it will only cheapen those orc cubs in the end." I heard that no man's land has gathered an army of 100,000 orcs. Even in the northwest of the empire, the shadow of orc cubs has appeared, and I heard that it is still their palace guard brigade. Alas, it's a pity that the country has lost its famous generals, and the empire will be so difficult from now on!" "This man is extraordinary-looking, elegant, and insightful in conversation, and I can't tell what kind of identity he is!

Rough man: "Yes! Now the wolf city is already very difficult to defend, not to mention the division of troops to the northwest." I really don't know where those blind guys came from, it's really amazing! I guess even if the wolf riding camp is still there, it may not be the opponent of these freaks. They can climb such a high wall with their bare hands, and they can avoid the arrows like a torrential rain, they are really not human!"

Elegant man: "What blindness! They just have eyes as black as ink! However, these guys who popped up out of nowhere are really powerful. I have never heard of such a legion on the mainland.

This time in the wolf city, we have seen it for a long time, these guys rushed to the head of the city several times, if it wasn't for the desperate resistance of the remaining wolf riders, I'm afraid the wolf city would have fallen long ago. Now, all the people of Wolf City are soldiers, and even the guards of us merchants have been requisitioned to defend the city. But I think it's still hanging, and when the orcs also attack, it will be a matter of time before the city is broken--only pity the famous generals since ancient times, such as beauties, and don't let the world see the white head, who let Governor Guo and his old man be killed like this!" he sighed with emotion.

The rough man slammed the table: "The house leak happened to rain overnight, damn, I said that the country is a scourge in the hands of the girls, a stupid girl with long hair and short knowledge, she actually wants to be a female emperor, she doesn't pee and looks in the mirror by herself-"

These words were vulgar, but Ah Heng didn't care at all, his face was already white, and his heart was turbulent...... Your Excellency the Governor...... Actually dead...... Isn't he with his father?

Ah Heng stood up abruptly. Xiao Jin grabbed Ah Heng's palm and shook his head gently. She knew very well the place of the peerless general in Ah Heng's heart, Ah Heng could spare his life for the sake of that father-like man-but she knew that it was useless to be impulsive at this time, he had to be calm--

"Ah Heng, sit down first and listen to what they have to say? Rumors may not necessarily be true - in this world, there is almost no one who can put Yue Wuying and Guo Zizhong to death at the same time!"

Ah Heng then came to his senses, yes, his father-in-law was by the side of the Governor! He forcibly swallowed the apprehension in his heart, sat down again, and quietly listened to what the two of them would say. (To be continued.) )
