Starry Night and Boy

The three of them found an inn, and the owner was a fat man who had no eyesight, and the flesh on his face was squeezed together, so that his eyes became a slit. He stood behind the counter, looking at them with this "slit", his fingers constantly fiddling with an abacus, making a "snapping" sound, and his suspicious gaze wandered over them, as if to see if the guests in front of him were covered with filth, and asked for the three best rooms were worth it to be entertained.

They don't seem to have no money, people who don't have money can't afford to wear this kind of clothes, but people who can afford to wear this kind of clothes can make themselves so embarrassed when they go out? The boss didn't believe it, so he firmly felt that their clothes were stolen. If you are kind enough to let them stay, they will definitely run away before the day is fully light, and by the way, they will take some valuable small items from the house and sell them.

As for the young man standing beside them, although he looked good and clean, his face was too tight, and his eyes were cold, and he was not a good person at first glance, and maybe he was a fugitive with blood on his hands.

"Three guests, the upper room of the hotel is ten gold coins, and you need to pay a deposit of five gold coins to check in, if you regret it halfway, the deposit is not refundable. ”

The boss intends to save some face for them, and deliberately moves out of a high and scary price to embarrass them, hoping that they will retreat. The young man was also something he didn't want to touch, and who knows if he would suddenly pull out his knife from where.

The high price of this room made Mu Xi's heart tremble, and the decoration of the room was inlaid with gold for ten gold coins a night? What kind of inn is this, it is clearly a black shop that eats people and does not spit out bones! He thought so in his heart. This prince, who used to be in the imperial city, understood how difficult it was to get a gold coin since he left the palace, the tuition fee of the school palace was expensive, and he often had to go to the quarry to dig stones during the holidays for the tuition fee, because there was a lot of money there, and his body was also strong as a magician, and it was not a problem to earn a silver coin a day.

Although he didn't treat him very well, his father didn't care about his life or death, and there were people sent by his father in Wending City. But he is very stubborn, except for asking the other party to bring news of his mother for him, refusing all funding, as if to draw a line.

Countless times in bed, countless nightfalls, after a busy day, the whole body aches. He also thought about it, otherwise forget it, accept the funding, be a carefree and carefree person, and if he persists like this, he will get nothing. Even he himself was amazed at how he had persevered for so long, he had always been a half-person.

But this idea comes and goes as fast as it gets, like a bubble rising at the bottom of a pond that shatters in the blink of an eye. When he woke up the next day, he was still wearing a short sweatshirt and smashed stones with a pickaxe and hoe at the foot of the stone mountain, and then put the gravel into a basket.

It was raining again outside, and it was messily slamming on the ground. Pedestrians on the road hid under the eaves and huddled together. In the bustling crowd, the adults held their children's hands firmly in their palms and held them tightly. The grocery vendors on the street are picking up the groceries on their stalls like flies. Occasionally a few bolts of lightning pierced the night sky, followed by a rumbling thunder.

The rain came suddenly, and most of the people on the street were unprepared, going back and forth under the narrow eaves and going home.

The door of the inn was wide open, and a lot of rain was blown in by the wind and fell on the face.

Mu Xi carefully grabbed the corner of Shao Xuechen's clothes, and wanted to say, "How expensive is it here, the service attitude and interior furnishings don't look like it's worth the price...... Although saying this kind of thing at this time definitely means that he has to be looked down upon, but he can't wait to break a copper coin in half to spend it, but he forgot that there is a noble son standing here.

At this moment, the noble man took out a black card from the storage ring and pushed it over the counter.

The fat boss obviously didn't know what this card was, and thought to himself contemptuously, although this card didn't seem to be badly worked, could it alone offset the accommodation fee of thirty gold coins? But soon, he put the idea away and put it behind him. There was no shortage of people in his inn, and judging by the expressions on their faces at the moment, this card seemed to be a symbol, and it seemed that only some terrible person could have it.

He put away the contempt on his face and replaced it with a warm smile, which was much faster than turning a book, as if he had done countless rehearsals. At this moment, facing Fengchen, he bowed his head and bowed his waist, while hurriedly beckoning the guys in the store to come over and pour tea and water, and even felt that the guys were hairy and had started by themselves.

"I'm sure you've heard of the Holtz family. Fengchen took the teacup from the fat boss's hand, "When we leave, you can go to the branch of the Holtz family set up here and ask for the money we spend here." They won't be missing you. ”

The fat boss didn't know where the owner of the black card came from, but he had apparently heard of the reputation of the Holtz family. It was a behemoth, the economic lifeblood of the Sith Empire, and more than half of the Empire's financial revenue depended on them. The family occupies the best part of the country, with gold trim and rhinestones on the floor, and a bonfire on the conical roof of the house. There are also rumors that the Holtz family controls more than half of the seats in the parliament, which means that the Sith Emperor's major decisions will depend on whether they agree or not. In some cases, they were able to depose the emperor and turn him from high to street.

Some people say that the name of the Holtz family in the Sith Empire is often better than everything, not even the emperor!

Although I don't know if these rumors are true or not, it is enough to show the strength of the Holtz family. After all, they are a lord who cannot be provoked, but they can be rewarded handsomely if they are well entertained, so they will not be stingy with money.

The fat boss sent them all the way to the bathroom, nodded at the door and said that if the three of them needed it, they could tell him at any time, and he stood aside and waited.

After the door was gently closed by the fat boss, Mu Xi pursed his lips and expressed his disdain for him, and he had no backbone at all. But he also had to admire the speed at which the other party's attitude changed, which he was far from being able to match.

"Half a pound and eight taels. Fengchen patted him on the shoulder, then took off his clothes and lay down in the bathtub, letting out a pleasant muffled sound, and putting on a casual expression like a master.

Mu Xi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the roof. He is indeed quite picky, and he also puts his posture quite low in the school palace, but he thinks that he should not be so spineless, right? Now it comes out of other people's mouths, it is still quite sad. Shao Xuechen estimated that he didn't have much money, and he wouldn't give him too much money to carry around when he saw his master's poor appearance. If it weren't for this noble son, I'm afraid that he and Shao Xuechen would be swept away, and it would not be a big deal to be said a word or two.

It's been a long time in the past ten years, and he has already suffered too much, and he can't make any waves at this time. If he had taken every word that others had said to him, he would have been a long time ago.

Mu Xi took off his clothes and silently got into the bathtub, looking at Fengchen's face steamed slightly red by the rising heat, the water rose and fell in his chest, and he suddenly remembered his days in the imperial city, if he hadn't left, his life might be completely different, he could be as chic as the other party, he didn't have to suffer so much, and he didn't have to secretly wipe his tears at night when no one was around, and he could also have a large group of servants and entourages like the other party's little brother to accompany him and serve him at any time...... As long as he doesn't leave the imperial city, he is too cowardly in the end.

The idea of killing everyone who stretched out his hand to him was not unheard of, but when he was alone, the moment he sat at the table and stretched out his hand to the knife, the courage he had finally mustered was gone, even if someone held a knife to his neck at this time, he would not touch the knife again. There are few important people in your life, can you kill each other so simply and erase each other from your life lightly?

Obviously, no. Those who put their hands on him are the brothers who let him do anything when he was a child, coax him when he is sad, and remember that he will give him gifts on his birthday.

So, how could he bear it? So, he chose to leave, not because he was afraid of getting blood, but because he didn't dare to get his brother's blood.

"I've got to go to the water tomorrow. Shao Xuechen spoke, he had been looking at Mo Tian's whereabouts after coming to Dai Yuan City, but he didn't find anything. The data was interrupted after the other party entered the water and clouds, as if someone had simply cut it off, and it came to an abrupt end.

He still has the token given by Xiao Yan on his body, according to Xiao Yan's words, of course he can ask the local administrative department to assist, but then it will be too exciting, and if he can't get it right, he will startle the snake. Therefore, it is better to investigate secretly.

"Do you mean we're going to Qinglou?" Mu Xi choked on a few mouthfuls of water, "That place is not suitable for me to go to, you may not know, I am not yet an adult, and I am still young." ”

The consumption in that place in Qinglou is frighteningly high, and he is going to go, which is really brain pumping. Now he has just enough money to pay for next semester's tuition.

"But is this a very unsightly thing?" Feng Chen rubbed his ears, "It's normal for a man to go shopping in the Qinglou. What about minors? Okay, don't make excuses, even if you want to find something, at least find something decent, instead of saying some nonsense-sounding reason, which has no credibility at all. ”

"We are a team, and of course no one is left behind. After Fengchen said this, he got up and picked up the towel hanging on the side to dry himself, "You're just afraid that your money will be emptied." ”

To say that Mu Xi feels that he is small and not suitable for going to that kind of place, Fengchen will not believe it if he is killed, he is simply worried about money, if someone invites him to go, he feels that he will want to refuse and follow him, the more honest and harmless people like him, the more bad water in his stomach.

He had seen Mu Xi lying in the corridor more than once in the school palace, looking intently at the girls frolicking downstairs. Dressed in long white dresses and pale yellow tops, showing a small calf, they ran in the sun, their bodies were full of youthful energy, and they had no idea that a pervert was spying on them upstairs.

This humble prince also has the sprout of youth in his heart, and he still has an impulse for beautiful things. But he has no lust and no guts, and he doesn't even have the courage to talk to any of these girls. He didn't know that if he hadn't been a boy at the time, that boy might have helped him chase a girl out of sympathy.
