Chapter Twenty-Eight: Missing the Inn

When the sun sets, the night spreads and gradually eats away at the world.

The sound of the clatter of carriages in the dusk made this silent mountain road seem more and more empty. The boy on the back seat of the carriage, as his name suggests, looked left and right, hoping to find an inn where they could rest their tired feet and get rid of their fatigue.

But at the dim end, there seemed to be only an endless black veil.

The two people in the carriage sat cross-legged, and the wind kept pouring in through the window, lifting the curtain and peeking at everything in the car, but only a vague figure could be seen.

Xi Yao's hand rested against the back of the void abyss, pulling the thousand machine poison into his palm. In the past few days, after the stimulation of the poison, the snow mountain qi sea is no longer as active as before. The tiny thousand machine poisons have little effect on the snow mountain qi sea. The qi in the body hovered before the eleventh hole, waiting for the next opportunity to break through the barrier and cross the eleventh hole barrier.

The void abyss held his breath and condensed, guiding the toxins in his body to slowly pass along the direction of Xiyao's suction, the process was slow, slow enough to worry him.

The faint light emitted by the lantern on the side of the official road cut through the darkness and illuminated Gu Xiaogu's black pupils, making it shine brightly.

Gu Xiaogu slapped the horsewhip heavily, "Drive, drive, drive." ”

The horses seemed to see their home in the light, and they ran harder.

Gu Xiaogu's cheerfulness naturally couldn't hide the void abyss, "Xiao Gu, what's going on?"

"There is an inn in front. ”

The void abyss lifted the curtain, and Xi Yao poked his head out of the carriage, "Miss the inn." ”

I have to admire Xi Yao's eyesight, they all feel a little dazed when they look at the lantern, not to mention the words on the door number.

"Are you mistaken, how can there be an inn with such a name? If you miss the inn, if you miss the inn, you will have nowhere to stay. Gu Xiaogu always had some doubts about Xi Yao, those magical things made him feel curious and couldn't believe it.

"Why can't you call it by this name, miss the inn, if you don't live in his inn, you will miss the inn. ”

There is some truth in this explanation, if you don't "miss the inn", you will miss the inn, and the innkeeper is quite witty.

The carriage stopped at the door of the inn, the gate closed, and the stars and lights inside, but it was surprisingly quiet, with the occasional neighing of horses.

Gu Xiaogu got out of the car and went to knock on the door, but Xuyuan stopped him, "Wait, Xiao Gu." ”

Xu Yuan looked at the horseshoe prints on the side of the road and said slowly, "Such hoof prints can't be stepped on by ordinary horses at all." ”

Xi Yao jumped out of the carriage, "It's still simple, just ask." ”

Through the crack in the door, he saw four horses in the yard, and Xiyao began to ask with the neighing of the horses, "Where are you from?" ”

A steed snorted, "From Luzhou." ”

"You're all from Luzhou?"

"No, that one isn't?"

"Where are you from?"

"I'm from Yizhou. ”

"What's the matter, these horses are barking non-stop, they must be hungry, don't you have any horses. A woman's inquiring voice rang out.

"Boss, no, the forage I just added, these are rare good horses, if I am hungry, how can those guest officers spare me. ”

The woman scolded angrily, "As far as you're well-informed, well, go and see if the guests upstairs need anything." ”

"Yes. ”

Xiyao watched the two of them enter the door, and said to Xuyuan, "Three horses are from Luzhou, and one horse is from Yizhou, I know Luzhou, but I have never heard of any Yizhou?"

"Luzhou snowmane and Yizhou lightning horse are all good horses worth a thousand gold, it seems that they should come, or they are here. Yizhou is not in the Zhongbi Continent, but in the Dongbi Continent, close to Zhongbi. Void looked at the inn, isolated in the wilderness, looked up, and began to knock on the door.

"Who, it's so late to come to stay. ”

The proprietress opened the door, there was a dark spot on the left side of her face, she was holding a rag in her hand, and she shook the rag twice as she spoke.

Xi Yao leaned over and took two deep breaths, he was a little addicted to poison, "This doesn't smell right?"

Xu Yuan looked at her with a smile, "Boss, you are not a black shop." ”

The proprietress hung up her signature smile, "Where, where, the guest officer is please, Xiaoluzi, don't take the guest officer up to rest quickly." ”

Xiao Luzi hurriedly ran down from upstairs, "Guest officer, please upstairs." ”

Gu Xiaogu threw a silver ingot to the proprietress and said, "Take care of our horses." "Although the horses are not as good as the four good horses in the stable, they should be treated better after pulling them for a day.

"Rest, rest, everyone, and the meal will come up at once. Xiao Luzi poured the tea and closed the door when he went out.

Gu Xiaogu said suspiciously, "How can there be an inn here, there was no one before." ”

Xi Yao didn't care, and drank the tea in one gulp, "Maybe it's new, you haven't taken this road for a long time." ”

Gu Xiaogu followed the Poison King from Tianfu City to settle on the edge of the Rotting Corpse Swamp about ten years ago, and his reasons were indeed not enough to be corroborated, so he kept silent.

"It's really a black store, and it's a black store with some doorways. Xu Yuan took a sip of tea, and the medicine was sweaty, but the medicine couldn't pour him down.

Feiliu Waterfall and Feiliu Mountain Stream are a unique in Zhongbi, attracting many tourists to watch, because the distance of Liuguang Town is relatively close, so it is also quite stained. But when people go to see Feiliu Waterfall, they all take a boat down through the South River to reach Aishan City at the confluence of the East and West Rivers*, and then take the right road of the left and right intersection to reach Feiliu Waterfall, look at the waterfall from afar, and overlook the rotting swamp.

On the left side of Liuguang Town, a mountain forest section, the road is rugged, backed by Bingci Mountain, sparsely populated, although there is an official road, but rugged and difficult to walk, such a wild hillside, suddenly appeared an inn, it is really incredible, it must be a black shop.

In recent years, it has been rumored in Liuguang Town and Yunci City that there are fox fairies on Liuyun Road, which makes this road even more scarce.

In the back hall of the "Missed Inn", the owners of the black shop are discussing how to subdue these fat sheep to be slaughtered.

"The people who came tonight don't seem to be simple. ”

The man dressed as a cook smiled, "Of course it's not simple, it's also fat, those four horses can withstand our robbery for half a year." ”

Xiao Luzi also smiled, "Luzhou's snowflake mane, it's just that the black horse doesn't know where it came from." ”

"It's normal that you haven't seen it, that black horse is not a horse from the Zhongbi Continent, but it is definitely more valuable than a snowflake mane. "The cook is more knowledgeable than Xiao Luzi, and he pointed out the small way," that is the lightning horse of Dongbi Yizhou, and it is said that it is completely running, as fast as lightning. The proprietress was a little worried, "The man with leaky teeth is not a fuel-efficient lamp." The cook said, "That's true, Snowmane, who can afford to ride without a corresponding status." One is a man from the cavalry department, the cocoon on his left hand, obviously holding a bow and arrow for a long time, must be a role within the marksman. One is a person from the judicial department, with keen eyes, I am afraid that he wants to arrest us and bring us to justice. One is a sergeant of the Tianyi Army, with the emblem of a goshawk on the neckline. ”

"Where's the man with leaky teeth?"

The cook pointed to a room upstairs, "Like the people in the lawyer's department, their eyes are sharp enough, and even more sophisticated. The subtle cuts in the trees and stones, and the shapes under the feet, leave a way out. ”

Xiao Luzi was a little worried, "Could it be that he is also a member of the law department, one after the other, just for us." ”

The cook pointed to the stable, "You forgot the Lightning Pony, it means he's from Tomber." ”

"Dongbi is here, Dongbi is so far away from Zhongbi, and it is still separated by the Misty Forest, what is he doing here?"

"I don't know what he's doing, but I can guess what he's doing. ”

The proprietress became interested, "Boss, let's talk about it." ”

"In Tochanaburi, most of the good players with this kind of ability come from the Pavilion. ”

"What kind of organization is it that doesn't leak the cabinet? ”

"It's a great organization, but in fact, its predecessor is still in Zhongbi. ”

Xiao Luzi wondered, "In Zhongbi, why haven't I heard of it." ”

"Shut up and listen to the master. The proprietress stopped the interruption of the path.

"Ten years ago, there were four young people in the arrest department under the Ministry of Justice, and it was rumored that the case was judged like a god, and there was no mistake or omission, which was called "four non-leaks", and the chief secretary personally confirmed that this was indeed the case. ”

"If the Great Priest says it's right, it must be right?"

The proprietress gave Xiao Luzi a pause, "In Zhongbi, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tianyi Dynasty may tell lies, but what the Great Si Ming said is absolutely true. ”

"Yes, the Great Priest never tells a lie. The Great Secretary ordered to recommend to Emperor Chengfeng to let these four people enter the Judicial Department of the Floating City. However, the Grand Priest vetoed it, and pleaded with him to reject it on the grounds that the young man lacked experience. ”

"The master, this is unreasonable, you said that the chief priest does not recommend his own people, but suppresses his own people, what is the reason. ”

"Because the Grand Priest knows that if these four people enter the Floating City, it will be turned upside down. Fourth, the cases that are not missed are all screened by the law department. Later, the four people forcibly stole a file and secretly investigated, which was the vigorous case of the prime minister. Later, the prime minister committed suicide angrily, and the minister's department and the minister's department jointly played, demanding severe punishment for the crime of harming the virtuous without omitting the name. ”

Xiao Luzi asked curiously, "Is that case true or fake?"

"Really, otherwise the chief secretary would not have saved their lives, and he also gave them the word "Xiangquan", and finally expelled them from the law department and never used them. Later, the chief officer of the Law Department of the Seven Killing Cities resigned, and left Dongbi with the "Four Non-Leaks" and established the Pavilion. ”

"Xiangquan, what do you mean?" Even the emperor had a hard time getting the approval of the Great Commander, and Xiao Luzi wanted to know what this meant.

"If you don't learn and don't have skills, you should choose the lesser of the two evils, and the heavier of the two benefits. ”

Xiao Luzi immediately drew inferences, "That leaky man is so powerful, don't touch him." Let's listen to the orders of the big priest and take the light action, but unfortunately, the last three straw bales are poor eggs. ”

"Don't worry, no matter how powerful he is, he can't escape from the palm of my hand. "The cook's confidence flickered brightly in the dark night with the candle flame
