Chapter 56: What do you want this court to do?
Although this Fenghou City seems to be a mess, there are still a few good inns.
Sect Master Meng didn't give in at all, and found the largest inn in the local area and decided to rest here.
The innkeeper seemed to have not seen the distinguished guests for a long time, and he personally came out to lead the horse, while enthusiastically introduced: "You distinguished guests really have a vision, the small shop was renovated last year, and the furniture and beds in it are the same as new!" Absolutely let you live in peace of mind and sleep comfortably! ”
Shen Yuning didn't believe it, looked at the lintel that still had the marks of knife cutting, and touched it: "Since you repair it, why don't you repair this lintel?" This is the face of your shop. ”
The shopkeeper said with a look of grievance: "I won't tell you, at the end of last year, the emperor sent troops to the East China Sea to clear the rebels and pass through here, just like locusts crossing the border!" The only difference between them and the bandits is that they didn't kill a few people, as long as they obediently handed over the money and food, they could still save their lives! Look at my lintel, it was cut by a group of officers at the beginning, oops, scared to death! ”
Shen Yuning frowned: "As an officer and soldier, how can you loot people's wealth?" They robbed the people of their food, but what did the people eat? ”
"What else to eat, starve to death!" The shopkeeper didn't care and said: "The people are all cheap, starvation or blessing!" In the next life, you will be a good man, and you will not have to suffer and sin! Come on, ladies and gentlemen, how many rooms do you want? ”
Yin Feng said: "Five." ”
Shen Yuning was still angry: "I can't have a good life in this life, what kind of afterlife do I cultivate!" Are the officers and soldiers so lawless, and your city lord doesn't care? ”
The shopkeeper quickly dialed the abacus to calculate the price: "The city lord is also a mortal fetus, and he can't stand everyone holding weapons!" ”
"Then sue the court!"
"Hey," the shopkeeper smiled bitterly, a little reluctant to continue chatting with her, took out five keys and hurriedly sent the guests: "Look at a few guest officials, do you want to take a shower and eat something?" The hot bath at the shop also has flower petals! ”
"I want it, I want it!" Qin Ganglie hurriedly said, "Send me a bucket of hot water in my room!"
She was afraid of the smell on her body, so she deliberately kept a distance from Meng Tang, and at this moment she took the key and rushed upstairs in an arrow step.
Shen Yuning also wanted to ask about those officers and soldiers, so he felt that the back of his neck was tightened and was pulled away by Sect Master Meng.
Shen Yuning struggled: "Meng Tang, what are you doing!" ”
"Countless people die every day in this big hall because of this world, and the Lord of the Shen Alliance is distressed?"
"That's a war! I can't feel sorry, but the duty of this officer and soldier is to protect the people and the country, if even they are so careless and robbing the people's money, then what else does this court do! ”
Meng Tang let go of the person, Shen Yuning crashed into his arms, and pushed the person angrily.
Sect Master Meng said: "Who said that the duty of officers and soldiers is to protect the people and the country? ”
"Is that not the case?"
"What they have protected has always been the throne of this great family, and whoever is above the throne will be protected. The war in the world arose because of that throne, and the dry bones everywhere were cast by that throne, Shen Yulong, aren't you the leader of the martial arts alliance who has been sitting for a long time, and has forgotten that he is also a member of the world, right? ”
Shen Yuning was stunned for a moment, she had known Meng Tang for so long, and it was the first time she had seen such a serious look in his eyes.
"If you have time to feel sorry for the lives of others, you might as well think about yourself."
Throwing down these words, Sect Master Meng climbed the stairs and went to the second floor of the inn.
Bai Yu called softly: "Alliance leader." ”
"Hmm."
"Don't be like him, the alliance leader is so angry, who is like him, so cold-blooded and ruthless."
Xiao Baozi also comforted her: "Yes, my father is like this, he speaks very ruthlessly!" ”
Shen Yuning couldn't cry or laugh: "Okay, you two are also half a catty." ”
Although what Meng Tang said was a little ugly, she was powerless to refute it.
Back in the room, Shen Yuning also took a comfortable bath, just like the shopkeeper said, their bath water does have flower petals, and it is very fragrant after washing.
As soon as he put on his clothes, Bai Yu came to knock on the door: "Alliance leader, can my subordinates go in?" ”
"Enter."
Bai Yu also took a bath, the whole person looked refreshing, he bypassed the screen with great interest, who knew that he just saw his alliance leader and quickly turned around.
Shen Yuning glanced at herself strangely, she was obviously dressed, okay!
"What are you doing!"
"Genus, subordinates sent medicine to the alliance leader, and the subordinates thought that the alliance leader had been riding a horse on the road these days, and the things on his body must have worn his skin, so he ......"
After that, he handed over a small bottle of ointment, but still didn't dare to turn his head.
Shen Yuning angrily took the ointment in his hand: "Where did this medicine come from?" ”
"The subordinate just asked Xiao Er to buy it!"
Shen Yuning pouted, he didn't have to guess to know, he must have told Xiao Er to buy the cheapest!
"You're going to talk to me all the time with your back to me?"
Bai Yu turned around, and his face turned red.
He hadn't seen his alliance leader remove his makeup for a long time, and after washing off the makeup he had deliberately maintained, her melon seed face was beautiful, her eyebrows were like the moon, and her lips were soaked in hot water with a ruddy color.
Shen Yu's condensing whiteness was covered by heavy makeup all day long, and it didn't get much darker even if it was exposed to the wind and sun.
"The alliance leader is still here, don't you dress up your disguise."
"Don't worry," she handed a mechanism to Bai Yu: "You can make up for the sleeve arrows that have been used, by the way, have you taken the one nailed to the carriage?" ”
"Of course!" Bai Yu said: "It's not much, if you lose a few more, it will be even worse!" ”
Shen Yuning expressed great appreciation for his frugality, and took advantage of his efforts to put on his sleeve arrows to smear the wound on his wrist that had been ground by the belt of the machine.
Although I secretly stuffed some cotton fabric as a partition, when it was tied too tightly, the thin skin and flesh were still worn out, and I was stung by the medicine as soon as I applied it.
Bai Yu was a little distressed: "Do you want your subordinates to help?" ”
"No, if you have this heart, buy me some good, expensive, and painless medicine next time."
Bai Yu pursed his lips and didn't say anything, and then looked at the red marks on his wrist, as if blood was sprinkled on the snow.
He put the installed mechanism back: "Don't use it for the alliance leader, and then your subordinates will buy it that doesn't hurt!" ”
After saying that, he hurriedly got up, and before leaving, he instructed: "The alliance leader will change his appearance first, and his subordinates will come back next!" ”
Shen Yuning couldn't help but say happily: "It's really not easy to make you spit out some silver!" ”
Bai Yu closed the door and hurriedly went, and Shen Yuning went to paint other places unhurriedly.
This ointment hurts when it touches the flesh at first, but it hurts very well, and after the pain, I don't feel anything, it's more like being paralyzed.
She was painting the wound on her waist when she heard the door open from the outside.
"Coming back so soon?"
"Ahem, Lord Shen?"
Meng Tang?!
Shen Yuning was in a hurry for a while, knocked down a lot of messy things on the table, and hurriedly looked in the direction of the screen without moving: "Sect Master Meng? Sect Master Meng has something? I'm still in the shower! Don't come in! Although there is no difference between men and men, my abundant body hair is very terrifying, and Sect Master Meng will definitely have nightmares when he sees it! Don't come in! ”
Meng Tang: "? ”
As if afraid that he wouldn't believe it, Shen Yuning hurriedly added: "Really! I, I have won the seventy-fifth place in the "Jiangnan Body Hair Abundance Competition"! And the prizes as proof! ”
Although the prize his brother got back then was a bristle brush, which was engraved with a gilded font: 'Jiangnan Body Hair Abundance Contest Seventy-fifth Place'.
But what she wants to complain about more is, what kind of ghost is this competition? How could anyone be idle enough to hold such a contest?
And her brother actually went, didn't count, and won the prize!
But today, this competition has become a stumbling block to stop Meng Tang.
Sect Master Meng also seemed to want to protect his eyes from being violated, so he stood outside the screen and spoke: "What I said downstairs just now was that I was not thoughtful for a while. ”
Heh, here comes the apology.
The Shen Alliance Master said very generously: "It's okay, the biggest advantage of this Alliance Master is that he doesn't like to see others in general." ”
"I just thought about it, there are some things, I better explain it clearly to the alliance leader."
Shen Yuning was puzzled: "What's the matter?" ”
"Although the leader of the Shen League is a person in the rivers and lakes, his compassion for the heavens and people is indeed admirable, but you are the leader of the martial arts alliance first, and then the master of the martial arts league, the alliance leader will have time to look at the sects like the Golden Dao Sect in the martial arts in the future, as for the life and death of the people, the more you watch, the more disappointed the alliance leader will be."
yes, I'm not here to apologize, I'm here to make things worse.
Shen Yuning said angrily: "The Golden Dao Gate is just an exception!" How do you know that I didn't contribute to the martial arts? When I saved the martial arts, you were still enjoying Qingfu in Junbei! ”
The man hooked his lips and smiled, clasped his hands around his chest and said: "That's right, I did hear a lot of anecdotes about the alliance leader in the past few years, but I heard less in the past two years, I thought that the alliance leader had an accident, but now I know that the original martial arts league has also been difficult to protect itself." ”
It seemed like a joke, but Shen Yuning listened to it as if her heart had been pierced by a needle.
Her elder brother, Shen Yulong, the real leader of the martial arts alliance, will not care about the life or death of the martial arts factions no matter how poor he is.
If he was still alive, there must be a way to save Wulin, not as incompetent as her.
Saving the Golden Daomen also depends on the title of Yuezong, and the cause of her brother's death was not found when the "Last Record of the First Emperor" was lost.
"If Sect Master Meng wants to see the day when my Martial Arts Alliance falls apart, it may not be possible," Shen Yuning stood up and said, "This crusade against the Great Mercy and Great Compassion Palace is the time for my Martial Arts Alliance to regain its prestige!" ”
Not only because this is a collective action that can unite all factions in the martial arts, but also because the wealth of the Great Mercy and Great Compassion Palace is enough for all factions to reinvigorate!
"I admire the alliance leader for recruiting troops for various sects in Mingjintai that day, and I also appreciate the alliance leader's indomitable loneliness, but if the alliance leader thinks that as long as he divides the Great Mercy and Great Compassion Palace, he can reorganize the martial arts, then please forgive Meng Mou for disagreeing."
"Why?"
She walked towards the screen, looking at the looming shadow behind the screen, Shen Yu was puzzled: "Sect Master Meng is not only the master of a sect, but also a businessman who controls the land and water trade, don't you know how important silver is?" ”
"Sometimes, silver doesn't solve everything, and when you can't buy anything with silver, you will find that this world is already terminally ill."
He couldn't help but take two steps forward, staring at the shadow behind the screen that was getting closer and more familiar, and his eyes burst out with an indescribable emotion.
