Chapter 18: The Town
The new book is on the list, and the tubes will support them if they have votes, thank you!
At night, Yin Di, a town, at the gate, two military soldiers with drooping eyelids, barely standing with spears, guarding the gate of the town.
Suddenly, a figure turned on the road in the distance, slowly approaching, he seemed to have walked a long way, a little tired.
"Xiao Yi, wake up, don't sleep, someone is coming. ”
One of the guards shouted in a low voice, waking Xiao Yi up.
Xiao Yi smashed his mouth and snorted: "It's dark, the polder market has been scattered for an afternoon, and there are still people coming." ”
"He came, dressed in a robe and carrying a sword, a samurai. ”
"Samurai?" Hearing that his companion said it was a samurai, Xiao Yi sobered up a little, and looked over, it was indeed a samurai dressed as a samurai, but compared to the samurai he had seen before, this samurai was slightly thin.
"It's the first time I've seen such a thin samurai, so I can't be an inferior person who has stolen the clothes of the samurai adults and dressed them up to pretend to be a samurai. He muttered, straightening up slightly, trying to make a more dignified posture.
"Stop. ”
The person who came stopped and looked at it indifferently, as if a basin of cold water was poured down from his head, and Xiao Yi's "majesty" stopped on his face.
"What's the matter?"
The samurai asked without any expression, and his voice felt a little weak.
"No, it's okay, the villain is fine, my lord, you can go in. ”
Xiao Yi was trembling all over, and he stuttered when he spoke.
"Oh. The samurai nodded, and walked in slowly, as he had come.
When he walked a little farther, Xiao Yi let out a long sigh of relief.
"Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you, you forgot the money in the town just now. ”
"Collect, collect, collect a bird money, we almost died just now, do you know?" Xiao Yi said with palpitations: "This is a real samurai, and it is very powerful, this kind of look, how many people will kill it, at a glance, it almost scared me to pee." ”
This warrior was actually Wang Yue, after leaving the path, he walked for a few days in succession, through the mountains and forests, and finally saw a town with dense houses, so he was ready to come here to take a rest here, this is already outside the Nagisa land, and there is no need to be careful in entering and leaving the city.
As for the identity, with the power of a samurai, he doesn't have to act as a samurai who has traveled the world, and he is also a real samurai, not those who put the name of a traveling samurai in words, and the force is only a warrior and swordsman who is beyond ordinary people.
After entering the town, Wang Yue observed this town, and what he saw was similar to the town in Nagisa in Amu's memory, surrounded by a circle of simple wooden walls that could barely block foreign enemies, hundreds of nearly a thousand houses were densely distributed, and the houses were mostly made of earth and wood, that is, adobe brick houses similar to the earth, and there were only a few relatively good stone houses inside, but it was nothing more than that.
However, although the town is simple, from the traces left on the ground road, Wang Yue can still see its prosperity, here is a radius of dozens of miles, or even farther away, the only polder city location, every few days, there will be a day, all the people around the need, from all over the gathering of people, here to exchange the needs of life, all kinds of traces on the street now, is undoubtedly the legacy of the polder city.
In my impression, there is not much time to use money in this kind of polder, and most of them are barter, and money, that is, bronze slots, is used to buy very valuable items, or to trade a lot of money.
In other words, the bronze slots he collected all the way still have some purchasing power, and it is not a problem to rest here for a while.
At this time, it was night, according to Amu's memory, all cities in this world, in order to prevent thieves, there was a curfew, but the town gate had not yet closed, obviously not at that time, there were still some people on the street, walking in a hurry, occasionally passing by Wang Yue, they were very cautious but indifferent to look at him, especially the robe on his body and the bronze sword on his waist, and then walked away from afar.
The town is not very big, it didn't take much time, Wang Yue has arrived at the center of the town, which is much better than the periphery, the main body of the house is all stone, and the stone is also polished more squarely, although the material is limited, but it has been a little exquisite.
In the center, one of the houses occupies a large area, and there are many houses, surrounded by brick walls, and there is also an arrow tower built inside, which is undoubtedly the residence of the owner of this place, or the most noble person, and all the stone houses around it are built in a row around it.
After a little look, Wang Yue's eyes fell on one of the more special houses, this house also covers an area of not small, and has a second floor, there is a flag in front of the building, there is a text about "wine" on it, from the carriages, horses and livestock staying in front of the house, it is indeed similar to a restaurant, inn, maybe there can be accommodation at night.
"Guest, are you eating, drinking, or staying at the hotel. ”
Seeing Wang Yue approaching, dressed extraordinarily, not dressed as a commoner in the country, a small servant immediately ran out to greet him.
"Eat, also live in the hotel, what is the price of your meal and accommodation?"
"Eating depends on what the guests order, whether you drink or not, but ordinary meals and stays are counted together, and you only need two corners a day. "The little guy flexibly leads the way in front and quotes the price.
"Two slots?"
Wang Yue nodded slightly, this bronze horn, he still has more than forty on him, just for food and accommodation, enough for him to spend more than 20 days, and with this long period of rest, although he can't make up for the fundamental deficiency and make the body reborn, but at least it is enough to basically recover his health, and even practice much stronger than ordinary people.
"Okay, then eat and stay together. ”
With that, the two entered the building.
This inn is quite big, and the business is also excellent, the hall of Nuoda is almost overcrowded, and they are dressed in different ways, but Wang Yue can see that most of them are a combination of several businessmen and a group of guards and men, all carrying all kinds of weapons, the guys are not as good as the warriors and warriors, but they can also kill, and some of them have killed a lot, and there has been a look of indifference for life in their eyes.
There were a lot of people here, and it was night, Wang Yue came in dressed as a warrior, and did not attract too many people's attention, it was still noisy, he sat down on a separate wooden table under the guidance of the small servant, and listened to the discussion of the surrounding merchants while waiting for the food.
"Xinjia, today you sent someone to the checkpoint in Nagisa to see, has that checkpoint been released? Alas, Nagisa doesn't know what happened, but the checkpoint was closed, and now it's been more than ten days, and if I don't switch it again, I haven't pulled these truckloads of goods over, but they are going to rot on the road. ”
"Not yet?" The person who was called the new armor also had a sad face: "I'm worse than you, things are rotten." ”
At this time, a merchant listened and became interested: "What kind of goods are you selling, since they are going to rot, why don't you sell them to me cheaply." ”
Before the words fell, someone around whispered: "Yun Laosan, the local old hyena, has come to pick up the bargain again." ”
"Hmph, Yun Laosan, I just poured everything and fed it to the dogs, and I won't sell it to you. ”
"Hey!" Yun Laosan jumped out: "Then you just wait for it to rot, no one will want to feed the dog when the time comes, I can tell you, the gentleman and daughter of Nagisa don't know who attacked and killed her, this is a big deal, so the Zhu clan is forbidden to go inside and outside, just to prevent someone from mixing in and out." ”
"As long as it's over, they won't switch it at all. ”
"What, such a thing happened in Nagisa, and there are still people who dare to attack and kill the princess of the Nagisa clan?"
"Why don't you dare? Hehe, I heard that Dr. Zhuyi has made a lot of enemies in our Shen country, from the monarch to the doctor, I don't know how many people want to deal with him, he can't support it alone, so he wants to marry the prince of the Zhu family and the little gentleman of the Cai Guoji family, and introduce him as foreign aid. ”
"Everyone, Cai Guo is a big country, although the Ji clan is a doctor of Cai Guo, but it is also a powerful person in Cai Guo's doctor, just a feudal city, there are as many as several cities, and it is next to our Shen Guo, not far from Zhu Di, if the two of them are married, the forces are combined, the whole Shennan, which doctor is not afraid? What is even more terrible is that if something happens to the Zhu family, Cai Guo people can have an excuse to put their hands into our Shen Kingdom, once this kind of thing happens, even the monarch will have a headache. ”
"So, it's too normal for the Nagisa monarch to be attacked and killed. ”
It turns out that there are so many hidden secrets in the attack and killing of the lady of the Zhu family? Although it may not be correct, but in a small town, someone can actually say a reason, and dare to say nonsense, so public, but strange, Wang Yue looked at the source of the sound.
I saw that it was a young man who was not as weak as the crown who spoke, and when he said this, he saw that the people next to him were all paying attention, and his face was very proud, but next to him, there were people who were pulling his robe, but it was obvious that this pig teammate couldn't pull it.
In this scene, Wang Yue smiled knowingly.
At this time, the young man saw that he had attracted the attention of the entire inn, and was about to continue talking, when he suddenly heard the voice of the little man who welcomed the guests outside.
"Ah, it's Lord Yin Qiu who is here, welcome, the villain will go and notify the lord's family to greet ......"
"No, you go from the side. ”
The voice of the person who came was rough, and he had a majesty, waved away the little guy, and after a while, he walked into the inn, and behind him, there were four soldiers.
Wang Yue saw that he was wearing a robe, with a mountain-like coat of arms on his chest, and a Yin character on his left arm, and a sword on his waist, obviously his identity was the retainers of the Yin family here, and his surname was Yin, maybe he was a member of the Yin family.
As soon as Yin Qiu came in, he stood at the door, scanning left and right, as far as his eyes went, the inside was silent, the guests didn't dare to speak, and even stopped eating and drinking.
Yin Qiu glanced around, saw his majesty, and was obviously very satisfied, and finally, his eyes fell on Wang Yue's body.
"Who are you, where did you come from?"
Wang Yue looked at him calmly and replied, "Traveling warriors." ”
"Traveling samurai? I think you are a samurai of the Nagisa clan, although you have no family crest, although you have no family crest, but you are a regular samurai of the Nagisa clan. Yin Qiu said unceremoniously, faintly hostile to Wang Yue.
Wang Yue suddenly knew where the hostility came from, and this samurai was not hostile to him, but to the Nagisa clan, and he obviously regarded him as a samurai of the Nagisa clan.
I heard the young man say just now that the doctor in Nagisa had made a lot of enemies, but now that he sees it, it is true.
After thinking about it for a while, he snorted coldly: "Recently, the warriors of the Nagisa clan are a little short-sighted, and they are running around the mountains, and there is one of them a few days ago, who rushed to me and died, and it happened that my robe was wet by the torrential rain, and I saw that his clothes were good, and he kindly sent them over, so he took them and changed them." ”
"I also took this sword, do you want to see it?"
As he spoke, there was a flash of lightning in front of him, and a two-foot bronze short sword had been pulled out and handed to Yin Qiu.
Yin Qiu's face instantly became solemn, his complexion changed several times, and he stared deeply: "Your Excellency is the one who attacked and killed the lady of the Zhu clan?"
"It's not. Wang Yue replied affirmatively: "Lord Yin Qiu, does he have anything else to do?"
"It's okay, but this is my Yin's land, not Zhudi, you can do it yourself. Yin Qiu obviously didn't believe his answer, and the faint hostility towards Wang Yue disappeared because of this, but he still warned him.
"Lord Yin, I'm just here to stay at the hotel, but I don't want to cause any trouble. ”
"If you don't get into trouble, you won't have trouble. Yin Qiu said coldly, and then glanced at the entire inn before turning around and leaving, as soon as he left, the people in the entire inn breathed a sigh of relief, and then the guests who were sitting around Wang Yue before all stayed away and changed to a table farther away.
"A samurai is so majestic. ”
As soon as he left, the young man who had been covering his mouth before sighed and said enviously.
"Of course the samurai is majestic, if he looks bad just now, he will directly deal with it as a thief, if it is closed, it will be a white pass, if it is beaten, it will be a white killing, and if you kill it, you will be careful when you speak in the future, the outside is not as good as at home, and you can't talk nonsense. ”
Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, he was ready for the conflict just now, fortunately... Looking down at his body again, he was still wearing this robe when he came out of Nagisa, which was really the biggest mistake. http://
