Chapter 3: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow

In the courtyard of the Qianfang Inn, a young man with a sweat towel on his shoulder was standing by the well with a confused expression.

Because the guest he just received was too shocking.

I asked for a guest room and a bucket of bath water after entering the door, and after taking a bath, I asked for two basins of face water, and now I ...... He plunged his head into the bucket of cold water that had just been dug out of the well.

This... But it's the early spring season!

Could it be that he wants to drown himself so that he can get to their inn?!

"Your Excellency, you... Are you alright? The young man tentatively stretched out his hand, trying to pull the person out of the bucket, not really suffocating inside.

The owner of his inn is so unhuman, he must be held fully responsible. He has an eighty-year-old grandmother and a younger brother in the boudoir......

With a bang, the head planted in the bucket was raised, and the cold water splashed the young man's body.

"Your nobleman......" The young man handed over the sweat towel on his shoulder.

"This poison is so powerful!" Yuan Ling wiped the water droplets on his face, and looked into the distance with blood-red eyes.

Looks like he needs to go back to that little girl for an antidote!

But then you're going to run into that evil god!

Without an antidote, he had to stay in ice water to relieve the burning sensation caused by the toxicity. It's really hard to decide!

So in the strange eyes of the young man, Yuan Ling picked up a branch from the ground. Break the two sections with different lengths and short them, and hand them to the young man.

"You take it, hide it in the palm of your hand, and I'll choose one. If I choose the short one, I'll leave. ”

The young man's eyes lit up when he heard the word leaving, and it couldn't be better to see off this troublesome guest.

Yuan Ling closed his eyes and waited for the young man to hide the branches.

"Is it okay?" Yuan Ling asked.

The young man was silent, as if someone had choked his neck, and he didn't even make a sound of panting.

Yuan Ling's heart tightened, and he opened his eyes suddenly. When he saw the cold eyes of the god of evil, he subconsciously turned around and was about to run.

Wait, the one who stands beside the evil god......

Yuan Ling turned around and made eye contact with the little girl who had sprinkled him with poison powder in the woods.

Lian Yu tugged at the corners of his mouth, and complained in his heart: Grandson, we are really enemies.

Who would have thought that there is a strange rule here that is about eggs.

Ordinary people are not allowed to raise chickens, let alone eggs. There is a special yamen responsible for raising chickens, and the act of stealing eggs is strictly investigated.

It is said that this regulation has also been introduced in the last two years.

The war was tight, and all the eggs had to be transported to the battlefield to provide nutrition for every soldier.

That's why she was suspected of being held hostage by the masked guy next to her because of an egg!

"You're here just in time, detoxify me. You're so poisonous, it hurts me to death. Yuan Ling stretched his big head in front of Lian Yu.

The corners of Lian Yu's mouth twitched again.

She just sprinkled a handful of chili noodles, why did she become poisoned?

Even Gardenia's collar was pulled up, and the whole person had to be forced to follow the steps of the masked man.

"It seems that there are many more stories about this girl. Yuanling, we might as well go in and sit down and talk slowly. The masked man was carrying Lian Yu in one hand and Yuan Ling's arm in the other.

The young man who had just been frightened by a look and forgot to breathe came back to his senses and hurriedly followed him to serve.

The three of them returned to their rooms in the inn, and as soon as they sat down, there was a commotion outside.

I vaguely heard someone shouting one after another: Young Master.

Lian Yu squinted at Yuanling, aren't these people the ones with torches? This young master, is it a drama of running away from home?

The masked man sitting next to him frowned, stood up with some anger, and opened the door.

Lian Yu looked at the back of the masked man, stood tall at the staircase, and took off the face towel.

There was an immediate sensation downstairs, like the sound of messy kneeling.

"I've seen ......"

"Silence!" The masked man gave a shout, intercepting the men's words.

Then he said impatiently: "I am with your young master, you can go back to your life." ”

After saying this, he re-masked himself, turned around and entered the door.

Lian Yu's ears moved when the door closed, and he heard the chaotic footsteps downstairs fading away.

"Say it!" The masked man knelt on the mat and took a sip of the tea bowl.

Lian Yu was very disgusted by this kneeling posture, so he moved his legs and sat down on the mat solidly.

I am going to see the liveliness.

She was very curious about what the relationship between the masked man and this young master named Yuan Ling was.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and Lian Yu looked at Yuan Ling suspiciously, and saw that Yuan Ling was staring at her with big innocent eyes.

Looking at the masked man again, he also stared at himself with an unhappy expression!

So, the excitement I want to watch is actually myself?!

Lian Yu rubbed his itchy nose: Say, what to say? Do you want to talk about eggs, or do you want to talk about chili powder?

Knock knock...

The young man in the inn knocked on the door like a savior. "Ladies and gentlemen, the meal is ready."

Almost as soon as the words of the guy outside the door fell, Lian Yu's stomach gurgled.

Yuan Ling snorted and laughed, glanced at Lian Yu's stomach playfully, and then got up and opened the door to take the tray in the man's hand.

"Ladies use it slowly." The man closed the door carefully.

After Lian Yu crossed over to this body, he lived a hungry life for a few days. She had no idea what it was like to eat a normal meal.

When she saw the contents on the tray, she couldn't believe her eyes.

A plate of white meat, a plate of green dipping sauce, half a cabbage and a baked naan-like cake.

Is this just a normal meal?

Cabbage, don't you need to fry it?!

White meat slices, dipped in leek sauce?!

Forget it, let's eat a hungry cake first.

Lian Yu reached for the cake that was whiter than her face......

Swish!

The soft sword slammed across the table with a trill, almost slashing Lian Yu's fingers.

Lian Yu was startled, retracted his hand in his arms, and moved his ass away from the bad-tempered god.

Yuan Ling gloated and pouted, and took the lead in eating.

He first cleaned his hands in the copper basin next to the table, then broke off a leaf of cabbage, picked up two slices of white meat, dipped them in the green dipping sauce on the plate, put them in the cabbage leaves, rolled them up, and handed them to the masked man.

Lian Yu quietly looked over. Now, you have to take off your scarf and let me see what the hell you look like, right?!

"Get down to business!" The masked man gave the hippie-faced smiling Yuan Ling an eye knife.

Yuan Ling stuffed the rolled vegetables in his hand into his mouth and chewed exaggeratedly. It's as if what is chewing in his mouth is the evil god sitting on the opposite side.

Then Yuan Ling picked up a cake and ate it piece by piece.

Lian Yu swallowed saliva as he watched from the sidelines.

"That's... What am I talking about? I picked up the eggs, and Young's handful is not poisonous, it is a seasoning for cooking. Lian Yu swallowed again.

I hope that when I am done, I can eat.

Speaking of poison, Yuan Ling realized that there was still a slight burning sensation on his face and eyes.

So he said vaguely: "How can it not be poison, how can salt have this effect?!" ”

The masked man on the side asked a question that made Lian Yu stunned: "If you give salt to Yuanling, how can you have fine salt controlled by the imperial court?!" ”

Syllable! The low table was slammed.

"Don't tell the truth yet!"
