Five days later, the capital of Ruiguo was in the capital.

It was almost noon, and the streets and alleys of Shangdu were full of people. All kinds of strangely dressed outsiders and local residents with a Beijing accent are mixed, converging into a bustling flow of people. The stalls on both sides of the street are full of various goods, attracting the attention of passers-by.

It was meal time, and the restaurants were noisy and noisy, wafting out bursts of wine. On both sides of the street, stall owners selling all kinds of snacks are shouting and greeting people who have not yet made up their minds.

The brothers and sisters of the Mo family entered the city from the north gate, one after the other, walking through the bustling crowd. Mo Cong and Mo Min walked in front empty-handed, looking left and right all the way, curiously looking at some gadgets that they had never seen before. Mo Xiao carried a pair of large wooden barrels and silently followed behind.

"I'm hungry. As he walked, Mo Min stopped in front of a stall selling snacks and turned to look at Mo Xiao and Mo Cong.

At the food stall next to it, plates and bowls of snacks are neatly placed on the long table facing the street, which looks quite tempting. There were seven or eight small tables in the open space behind the long table, and a few diners were eating with relish. A chubby boss shuttles back and forth between the big and small tables, and is a friendly and busy.

"What are the guest officers here for?" Seeing Mo Min's greedy look, the boss came over and greeted him.

"How do you sell these things?" Mo Min pointed to the snacks on the long table.

"Regardless of the type, it's five copper plates per serving. The boss pointed a chubby finger and gestured.

"Huh, it's so expensive. Mo Min thought in his heart, and said it out of his mouth. Five copper plates in her heart are almost the price of a large bundle of firewood.

"Expensive?" The boss was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ridicule a few words, but looking at the clothes of a few people, although they were ordinary, they were all dressed in the capital, and listening to Mo Min's accent, he didn't look like a hillbilly from other places, so he didn't dare to offend. He said with a smile on his face: "Girl, you are really joking, and you don't know the prices in the capital." My small stall has a small profit, and the price is already very generous. ”

"Okay. I want this... This, as well as... Here's the same. Mo Min pointed to the various snacks on the long table whose names he didn't know at all, and ordered three things.

The three of them sat down at the small table, waiting for the boss to bring them up. The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and more than a dozen black-armored sergeants galloped past on their horses, raising a cloud of dust. Pedestrians on the road avoided it.

Seeing the dust rising, the boss hurriedly took out a clean white cloth and covered the snacks on the long table.

"What a man, this is... So ignorant of the rules!" Mo Min waved his hand to drive away the dust that slowly drifted over, frowning and complaining. She turned her head to look and saw that the black-armored sergeants were dressed in familiar attire, as if they were the cavalry that the three of them had followed all the way.

"Shhh The boss hurriedly turned around and reminded, looking scared. He looked left and right, and whispered: "Those military masters, we ordinary people can't afford to provoke them." ”

"Hmph, what's the big deal. Mo Min snorted disdainfully.

The boss shook his head and ignored her. When the dust clears, the white cloth is lifted and the snacks are served.

While eating, the three of them whispered their next steps.

They thought that the capital was only such a big place, and as long as they came, they could easily find the old man. I didn't expect to really come at this time, but the capital in front of me was beyond imagination. Finding someone in such a crowded place is probably not something that can be done in a day or two. Although the three of them chopped firewood and hunted along the way, they also got some entanglement, but after all, they were shy in their pockets, and how to stay in a place like the capital that required money for food and sleep was a problem.

While they were discussing, another group of black-armored cavalry galloped in from a distance and stopped in front of the noodle shop next to it.

"Little Er, thirteen bowls of ramen in a big bowl, and then a pot of wine. Hurry up!" the leading officer had a long scar on his face, and he looked hideous. He rolled over and dismounted, tied the reins to a nearby tree, and shouted to the men at the noodle shop. More than a dozen sergeants also tied their horses one after another, and followed the leading officer into the noodle shop with a meteor.

It didn't take much time, and more than a dozen people came out of the noodle shop again, and each went to the war horse to untie the reins and turn over on the horse.

"Master Jun, you... I haven't paid yet. The shopkeeper cautiously followed out, with a smile on his face.

"Money, Lao Tzu is working the front line, you kid... Belch... If you don't give Lao Tzu money, forget it, and dare to ask Lao Tzu for money. Get out of here. The lead officer was burping on horseback and blushing. His eyes widened, and the oblique scar looked even more hideous.

The fat owner of the food stall hid in the corner and watched, admiring the courage of the shopkeeper. If it were him, he would be glared at by that scarred face, and I am afraid that he would obediently take out his money bag, let alone ask others for money in turn.

"Second brother, didn't you say that these people are just like us, they also protect the common people, why are they starting to bully the common people now?" Mo Min asked in a low voice.

Mo Cong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

"Master Jun, I beg you to have mercy on the poor little one, settle the account. If you don't give money, the account will be counted on the small one, and the small one really can't afford it. The little second begged bitterly.

"Get out of here. Don't chirp here... delay Lao Tzu's business". The scar-faced officer waved his whip impatiently and slapped his horse away.

"Stop!" Mo Min couldn't see it, so he slapped the table and stood up, walking towards the scar-faced officer.

Mo Cong and Mo Xiao also came out.

"When you go out, you have to give money when you eat, do you know the rules?" Mo Min stopped in front of the horse in a few steps, and looked up at the scar-faced officer. Eating has to be paid, which is the biggest rule she has encountered along the way down the mountain.

The pedestrians and vendors around saw the bustle to see, and stopped to watch, but they didn't dare to get too close.

"Hey, whose girl are you, it's not good to stay at home at noon, run out... Have a finger in the pie. The scar-faced officer glanced at Mo Min drunkenly, "Get out of the way, my brother is on military affairs, and I don't have time... I'm going to talk to you. ”

This scar-faced officer's name is Lei Leopard, and he is the newly promoted Left Guard Leopard Battalion of the Central Army. Nine months ago, he worshiped the immortal manifestation under the giant spirit pass, and told Chen Ruoping that there was also a fairy shroud in Ruiguo, and it was this person.

He lifted the reins of the horse and was about to leave, when a hand suddenly stepped horizontally and grabbed the horse's chew, and the horse could not move in for a while. But it was Mo Cong who was afraid that the war horse would stumble and hurt Mo Min, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it.

Lei Leopard's expression froze, and he turned his head to look at Mo Cong.

More than a dozen black-armored cavalrymen rode over one after another, faintly surrounding the Mo family brothers and sisters. These sergeants were all survivors who fought out of the swords and swords on the battlefield, and they didn't say a word, but they faintly exuded a sense of slaughter.
