Chapter 098: The Shopkeeper Couple with a Story
What happened in Huaisha City, for Liu Zihong, was not even a little twist and turn. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When I saw the jade lion in the evening that afternoon, it didn't eat half of the essence in the manger.
Then Liu Zihong found a variety of potentially lethal poisons from inside, and after repeated questioning, a guy in the inn told the truth of the matter.
It turned out to be Li Si and his group, after being trampled on by Liu Zihong and breaking his leg during the day, he was quite unwilling, so he coerced the shopkeepers, sneaked in, and drugged the jade lion in the night.
Unexpectedly, the Jade Lion was also quite smart, and when he saw a few sneaky people, he knew that the purpose was not pure, so he endured his hunger and didn't eat a bite of those essences.
After the matter was clarified, the shopkeeper also breathed a sigh of relief, although he said that his inn was also responsible, but it was only joint and several liability, and the main responsibility was still those gangsters, it seemed that he had to find a way to give them some color.
"Okay, now I ask, get it some fine forage, even if this thing is in the past, it would be better to have some meat!" Liu Zihong did not embarrass the shopkeeper.
For the guests to be so magnanimous, the shopkeeper was naturally quite happy in his heart, and patted his chest to show that there was absolutely no problem, and he personally watched and fed the horses.
Then, Liu Zihong left the inn, and it was only about half an hour.
When he came back, the Jade Lion had already eaten and drunk enough, and it seemed that there was no problem at all on the road.
The night was very beautiful, and when the gate of Huaisha City was slowly closed, Liu Zihong was already dozens of miles away, and the cool breeze came, which made people feel quite refreshing.
There are a lot of people in a hurry, from time to time you can see people in a hurry, the mount may not be a horse, and there are many strange monsters, Liu Zihong is not strange.
Just picked up the speed, there is no mount that can be compared to the jade lion of the night, and even the people who secretly follow him will be thrown out more than ten miles without knowing it.
After several forks in the road, the trackers who were constantly dividing their troops could no longer disperse, and at this time, Liu Zihong hurried towards the south in a place they did not want to be.
In the past two days, he has also figured out that his goal is too obvious for such a swaggering rush, and in this case, there is no doubt that it is better to keep a low profile.
At two o'clock in the morning, a small town appeared in front of Liu Zihong, also with two red lanterns, but there was nothing unusual about it, and there was not even a sign prohibiting hands, it seemed to be just an ordinary town.
Horses entered the town, and except for an inn and a restaurant, the whole town was already asleep.
The proprietress who was dozing off was quite beautiful, the weather was too hot, and her clothes were quite cool, and she was awakened by Liu Zihong's footsteps, and she woke up in an instant, with a habitual smile on her face.
"Childe lives in the hotel or is it sharp?" The water snake-like body has already been pasted, making Liu Zihong blush, but it makes the proprietress giggle and feel better.
"Simply get some food, and then prepare the room to go to the room, by the way, my horse needs good fines and a separate stable!" Liu Zihong controlled his emotions and sat down, a little afraid to look at the proprietress with the waves on his chest.
When the proprietress saw his appearance, she didn't tease him, and hurriedly arranged things, and after a few words of scolding, a simple man appeared in front of Liu Zihong, smiled, and then went to feed the horses.
"Little brother, do you want to drink some wine?" The proprietress came over with a smile, holding a bottle of good wine in her hand, and shook it at Liu Zihong.
"You can't drink alcohol in the next important matter, please forgive the proprietress for your forgiveness, and you will definitely taste the proprietress 's wine when you pass by another day!" Liu Zihong also smiled and arched his hand and explained a little.
This man has no ill will towards him, but he is just bored and wants to tease him.
"What's important about my brother, can I talk to my sister, there are a lot of monks who pass by on weekdays, and I have a lot of news here?" the woman said, and came up, and the title had changed three times.
"Thank you for the kindness of the proprietress , it's just that this matter is related to the lower division, and it is really inconvenient to talk about it!" Liu Zihong politely refused.
The proprietress didn't care, it was estimated that Liu Zihong didn't know much about the things on the rivers and lakes, so she began to talk about some of the things she heard here.
Liu Zihong didn't break it, just listened quietly, since the other party felt that it was a good choice to live in seclusion here and live an ordinary life, then there was no need for him to say anything to disappoint his fun.
"It's not my sister, I'm bragging, what's the matter, as long as my brother comes to me, sister, I'll protect you!" After a few drinks to herself, the proprietress began to slap the table and talk.
The middle-aged man sitting next to him looked at Liu Zihong with some embarrassment: "Little brother, don't care, my lady is not a bad person, she is in a bad mood, say some rumors, don't take it too seriously!"
"It's okay, I like to talk about some things in the rivers and lakes, I haven't been away from the division for a long time, and I'm still too unfamiliar with the rivers and lakes!" Liu Zihong said with a smile.
The middle-aged man also breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the sky outside, the moon had begun to sink in the west, got up and closed the door, and lit the lantern that was closed.
The proprietress seemed to be a little sober, with an embarrassed smile on her face, but she didn't want to say that she was drunk: "Little brother, we husband and wife have been opening shops here for more than ten years, and the people in the rivers and lakes who often come and go are also very familiar, and some small troubles can still be handled!"
Seeing that the lady said this matter again, the middle-aged man couldn't help but pat his forehead and smiled at Liu Zihong.
"That's natural, just because of my sister's pride, I also want to make a friend!" Liu Zihong also felt that the couple was quite interesting, so he followed the words of the proprietress.
I also poured myself a small half glass of wine, and there was no problem with drinking a little, so I decisively exposed my identity as a rookie, so that the shopkeeper and the proprietress were completely relieved.
The sun rose as usual, and something big happened in Waisha City, and dozens of street thugs were all broken legs and thrown on the street.
The innkeeper was still going to trouble them, but now it seemed that he didn't need to make a move, and then he remembered that the young boy had disappeared from him for half an hour before leaving Huaisha City.
After understanding it in his heart, he couldn't help but feel glad, called the guy over, and after a few reprimands, he didn't embarrass him too much.
The shopkeeper, who already knew the news, had a feeling that he had been shut down by the ghost gate, and he was sweating all over his body now.
If he insisted on not reporting it, maybe he would be lying on the streets of Huaisha City like those guys now, and the passers-by hurriedly bypassed him with contemptuous eyes.
At this time, Liu Zihong was in an inn hundreds of miles away, and he had just finished his morning cultivation, and the proprietress had already come to the door with breakfast.
