Chapter 43 Songzhou (Ask for Recommendation and Collection)
"Where do you say this is?"
Although Hu Qiong, who has been accustomed to day and night walking in Panlong Town since he was a child, has been out for nearly 20 days, this habit is really irreversible for a while. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the same room with Hanyu, Hu Qiong lay on the floor and couldn't sleep, her whole body was hot, like a pancake, and she tossed and turned there all night.
After hearing the sound of the guy in the inn downstairs opening his shop, Hu Qiong quickly got up and pushed the door down to ask where he was.
After some roundabout inquiry, the answer given by the guy made Hu Qiong feel a little incredible, and he asked the other party again in disbelief.
"Guest officer, this is XF County. Didn't you see those two big letters on the gate when you entered the city yesterday?"
For a person like Hu Qiong who had been living in his store for a night and didn't even know where he was, the shopkeeper's heart was also extremely surprised.
Although he didn't have any impression of Hu Qiong's stay in his heart, as a shopkeeper with good professionalism, he still answered Hu Qiong's question very politely.
"When I entered the city yesterday, I was a little unwell, so I lay in the carriage and didn't see anything outside. Little second brother, thank you. ”
After being sure that he was in Xinfeng, Hu Qiong thanked the shopkeeper and went upstairs to the room with a full depression.
Walking on the way back to the room, Hu Qiong's heart kept complaining about Qingyi and their cultivators, you said that you have nothing to do, so you love to toss so much, and you just run so far away.
Hu Qiong thought of the early hours of the morning, and told Na Hanyu that she found her on the side of the road, and it should have been that she walked out in a daze when she was in the house, and then fainted to the ground.
It's good now, I came to Xinfeng all of a sudden, thinking that Xinfeng is more than 200 miles away from Songzhou, and this Hu Qiong's head is big. Wait a minute, if Hanyu finds out that she has run to Xinfeng, and asks, Hu Qiong really doesn't know how to explain, could it be that you Hanyu accidentally ran to Xinfeng and fainted.
"Miss Hanyu, have you gotten up?"
Walking to the door of the room, Hu Qiong knocked on the door very politely and asked if Na Hanyu had gotten up.
"Eun Gong, I'm already up. ”
In fact, since he came to his senses, that Hanyu has not closed his eyes again, after all, there is a strange man in a strange room, although on the surface this man does not look like an evil person, but who knows if he will suddenly be beastly, so this Hanyu has been squinting, has been secretly observing Hu Qiong's every move, as long as she finds that Hu Qiong has any misdeeds, she will shout for help.
After seeing Hu Qiong get up and go out, Na Hanyu also quickly got up and washed.
"I'm not coming in. Miss Hanyu, you clean up first, I will wait for you downstairs after I find the carriage, and after breakfast, I will send you home. ”
For Hanyu, Hu Qiong at this time was eager to send her back home immediately, and it could be regarded as completing Qingyi's entrustment as soon as possible, so she didn't push the door in when she stood at the door, but asked the other party to clean it up quickly.
"Why do you have to take a carriage back to go back? Engong, where are we?"
Hearing that Hu Qiong actually said that he was going to take the carriage back, this Hanyu also felt that something was wrong, and asked Hu Qiong through the door, where was this.
"Miss Hanyu, we will be in Xinfeng, I can't say anything about the specific situation, or I'll explain it to you in detail on the road later." ”
For Hanyu's question, Hu Qiong hadn't made up the answer for a while, so he could only take one step at a time, and after dragging the time of this explanation to the detailed explanation on the way, Hu Qiong hurriedly ran downstairs to find the carriage.
"Man, please help me find a carriage to come over later, and I'll go to Songzhou City later. Then bring me a bowl of five soft soup and shredded chicken noodles. ”
Hu Qiong, who ran down the stairs, directly found a table in the hall downstairs and sat down, and called the guys on the side to help find the carriage.
"Guest officer, I don't know what kind of requirements you have for this carriage?"
It seems that the guys at this inn have been strictly trained, and they will ask carefully about the requirements of the guests to meet the needs of the guests to the greatest extent.
"The carriage should be as comfortable as possible, the horses should be good, of course, the coachman's driving skills must be good, and the coachman must be honest and reliable. ”
Although the only job he has been engaged in is to serve others in Fengyi Building, but now that he is walking the rivers and lakes, this Hu Qiong has to pretend to be an uncle no matter what, and enjoy life, no matter what, there are still 100,000 taels of silver tickets in this pocket, and there is still a good carriage to swagger.
Besides, when Hu Qiong was dressing Na Hanyu, she found that the clothes that Hanyu was wearing were exquisite in terms of workmanship and fabric, and this looked like a rich man's child. This life-saving grace must be repaid by money. For those who can give him money, Hu Qiong will definitely treat him as an uncle to serve him wholeheartedly, after all, this is a small fortune, and a big fortune is not in.
As for the people who must be honest with the coachman, this is also because Hu Qiong has heard too much about the coachman and the boatman suddenly making a cameo appearance as a robber and robbing in the middle of the road in Panlong Town. For the sake of his own life, for the sake of the 100,000 taels of silver tickets on his body, he must find an honest and reliable one, which is why he didn't go out to find it himself, but asked the guys in the inn to find it.
"Okay, guest officer, sit down for a while, and I'll go and handle it for you right away. ”
The guy sang a song to Hu Qiong, and then walked away backwards, going to find a carriage for Hu Qiong and get ready for breakfast.
When the runner brought Hu Qiong's five soft soup and chicken noodles up, this Hanyu also finished cleaning up and went downstairs.
said to be cleaned up, but in fact, this Hanyu has nothing to clean up, after all, it was carried out directly from home, and there is nothing else except the clothes on his body.
Hanyu's tidying up, that is, cleaning herself up, combed the original hair into a bun.
After Hanyu sat down beside him, Hu Qiong called the shopkeeper over and ordered some snacks for Hanyu.
The two of them sat at the table, eating breakfast, one gulp into their mouths, and the other with spoons in small bites, as if following the ancient premonition of not saying a word.
During the meal, Hanyu wanted to speak several times, but as long as Hanyu showed a slight hint of wanting to speak, Hu Qiong buried her face directly in the rice bowl, making Hanyu hold all the words she wanted to say into her stomach.
After Hu Qiong and the two finished breakfast, the carriage was also found by the shopkeepers.
The coachman was an old man in his fifties, who seemed to be relatively loyal and honest, his hands were covered with calluses, and he looked like he was also from a poor background, and he was used to doing farm work.
When Hu Qiong saw the groom, the old man was washing the horse on the carriage. From the horse's tall body and long neck, it can be seen that this is indeed a good horse.
After settling the account with the inn and negotiating the fare with the coachman, Hu Qiong got into the carriage with Hanyu and prepared to leave for Songzhou.
Lying on the thick cushion in the carriage, Hu Qiong originally wanted to close his eyes and pretend to be dead immediately, but when he saw the expectant eyes of Hanyu, he couldn't bear to sit up, racking his brains to make up a lot of reasons why he didn't even believe in himself, explaining why he was far away from Songzhou at this time and appeared in this Xinfeng City.
In the end, I really couldn't make it up, looking at Hanyu's eyes full of disbelief, Hu Qiong had no choice but to harden her heart, and said that she was sleepy and lay in the car and pretended to be a dead dog.
This closed his eyes, it didn't take much effort, and Hu Qiong really fell asleep. This night, Hu Qiong slept for a whole day until the sun was about to set, and the carriage was woken up by the coachman who drove the car when it had arrived in Songzhou.
"Childe, let's go to Songzhou. ”
Outside the carriage, the voice of the coachman woke Hu Qiong from his sleep.
Hu Qiong opened her hazy sleepy eyes, sat up and stretched, and then stuck her head out of the window of the carriage to look out.
In front of Hu Qiong's eyes appeared is a tall city gate, the city gate is more than ten zhang high, the top of the city gate is an arrow tower, next to it is a city wall built with huge square stones, and the word Songzhou is engraved on the city gate.
In the cave of the city gate, there were two long queues, which were supposed to be the villagers who had returned to the city before the city gate was closed.
After getting out of the carriage and paying the driver the fare, Hu Qiong and Na Hanyu stood at the end of the line, ready to enter the city.
