Chapter 350: Seeing Beauty and Hearts
The martial arts conference is about to be held, because a large number of heroes have entered Beijing, so together with the inns and wine shops on the official roads of the provinces around Jingshi Zhili, business has improved.
A major town, a place where pedestrians must pass, is called Qingxiang Town.
Because it is a northbound place, there are a lot of pedestrians who usually pass, and now they have caught up with the martial arts conference, and the number of people in a hurry has naturally multiplied, so the inn business in Qingxiang Town is very prosperous.
However, most of these people who are in a hurry are rough warriors, and they are in groups of three or five, walking together, just to go to Beijing to join in the fun. In the past few days, in Qingxiang Town, the inn has been almost full, and it is really not so easy for pedestrians to find a place to live.
On this day, a weak woman came to Qingxiang Town, wearing a blue dress, her appearance was very beautiful, and she was very moving, and she felt pity at a glance. She had no companions, and walked alone. A beautiful and weak woman like her is the coveted target of those wolf-like warriors.
Fortunately, most of the people who can go to the martial arts conference are heroes with names and surnames on the rivers and lakes, and occasionally there are a few people with bad intentions, and in front of most of the righteous people in the rivers and lakes, they dare not blatantly bully women from good families. Rao is like this, she is still very dangerous for a weak woman to walk on the official road where there are many martial arts people. Because those reluctant people, although they dare not touch you openly, it does not mean that they will not beat your idea secretly.
It was getting late, and the woman in blue wanted to find a room in Qingxiang Town for one night, and then continue her journey tomorrow. It's just that the guest rooms in Qingxiang Town are almost full, and she has looked for three in a row, all of which say that there are no vacant rooms. So, she only got a fourth, still hoping to find a room.
"Store, do you still have a room here?" The woman in blue asked.
"Huh! Female guest officer, I'm really sorry, it's full today. Xiao Er had to laugh and laugh.
"Then help me cook a bowl of shredded pork noodles first, and add two poached eggs." The woman obviously cherishes her body very much, and although she is away from home, she does not treat herself badly at all.
"Howler! A bowl of shredded pork noodles with two poached eggs! Xiao Er shouted loudly, and immediately went in to prepare.
After a short time, the shredded meat noodles and poached eggs were ready, and Xiao Er directly brought them up and said, "Guest, you use it slowly." ”
"Cut a pound of good cooked beef, wrap it and take it with me, and besides, help me fill this kettle." As she spoke, the woman gave the silver and the kettle to the shopkeeper. Xiao Er naturally knew that the girl was preparing dry food, and might plan to continue on her journey, so he said to the woman: "Girl, if you really can't find a guest room before dark, go out of the town and go north, there is a big abandoned ancestral house there, you can go there for a night." It's just that you're a girl, be careful when you go out! There are a lot of bad people in this world. He expected that the woman was going to the capital, so he told her where she would stay in the north.
"Second Brother Xie told me that the little girl knew." The woman smiled sweetly and thanked her.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, you're good at eating." After Xiao Er finished speaking, he helped her fetch water and cut meat.
After the woman finished eating the noodles, the little second beef and water were also ready, and they were put in front of the woman, the woman took something, and then went out of the store again to find the guest room, and heard the little second brother say behind her: "Guest officer, you go well!" ”
The woman looked for three or four more inns, but they were still full, so she was a little disappointed, and when she came out of an inn, she suddenly bumped into a son-in-law.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The woman hurriedly apologized and hurried away again.
The man was about to enter the inn, but was hit by the woman, and immediately became a little angry, and was about to scold, but saw that the woman was as beautiful as a flower, and Chu Chu was pitiful, so he had a bad heart, and even poured out from the door of the inn, and followed the woman in blue.
The woman in blue didn't expect the person to follow again, and when she was about to leave the town to find the ancestral house that Xiao Er said, suddenly a person rushed out from behind and directly grabbed her right hand.
"Beauty, are you looking for a guest room again? I happen to have one there, so why don't you stay with me?" The man was very bold and even teased the woman in blue directly on the street.
Women are very weak, while men are young but they are practitioners.
The woman shouted, "Stinky rascal, let me go." She struggled twice, but she couldn't break free of her right hand.
The young man pulls the woman closer with his right hand, and with his left hand he grabs the woman's waist. It's just that his left hand just stretched out, and before he touched the woman's waist, he was actually grabbed by another extremely powerful hand, and twisted it so hard that he almost didn't twist his left arm off. The man couldn't bear the pain, so he had to let go of the woman in blue, and when he looked up again, he saw that it was a dwarf who was holding his right hand, and he was also holding a Guan Wang Yanyue knife that looked very heavy in his other hand.
"Who are you, dare to meddle with my son's affairs?" The man asked aloud.
Seeing that he was still very arrogant, the dwarf increased his strength in his hand, only to twist the man and ask for mercy again and again.
The dwarf shouted loudly: "Lao Tzu dwarf public relations is good!" What kind of dog are you? Dare to flirt with other girls in broad daylight, you are the king of heaven, and I will take care of this matter today. After he finished speaking, he pushed hard, and the man suddenly fell heavily to the ground.
The man rolled over and wanted to draw his sword and move, but saw that the dwarf was not alone, but four people together. In addition to him, there was an old man with a fork, a woman with an eight-slash knife at his waist, and a thin man with a flat shoulder.
When the man saw that there were many people on the other side, he didn't dare to make a mistake, but said, "You wait for me, and I'll make you look good later." With that, the man fled in disgrace.
These four people are the four remaining five ghosts in western Sichuan, and now they should be called the four ghosts in western Sichuan, but the woman in blue is Wei Yan.
Wei Yan heard that Tang Zhong was in Chengdu, so she went to Chengdu to find him, but when she came, Tang Men and his party all left, saying that they were going to the capital. So Wei Yan rushed all the way to the capital, but Tang Zhong and his entourage traveled in the mountains and rivers, but they walked slower than Wei Yan. Therefore, although Wei Yan set off later, she actually walked in front of them, and at this time she had already entered the boundary of Baoding Mansion in Zhili.
Qi Xiaoxiao is also a woman, so she is concerned: "Girl, are you okay?" ”
"I'm okay? Thank you to a few heroes for coming to the rescue, little girl Wei Yan, thank you again! Wei Yan shook her head and said.
"There are people from the rivers and lakes all the way, you are a weak woman, do you want to go to the capital?" Qi Xiaoxiao asked.
Wei Yan didn't speak, only nodded.
"You are a weak woman going out, and you don't know martial arts, it's dangerous, why don't you go with us!" Qi Xiaoxiao even said sincerely.
Wei Yan saw that Qi Xiaoxiao was a woman, and he could not only protect himself, but the two of them could talk, which was good, so she agreed.
"Damn, it's really infuriating that you can't even find a place to live in such a big town." The old man with the fork suddenly scolded his mother.
"Big brother, don't worry, you will always find a place to live." Qi Xiaoxiao said.
"I know where to stay, I just need to buy some food and drink." Wei Yan said.
"Really? Where to stay? The thin man asked.
"To the north of the town, there is a large abandoned ancestral house where you can stay, but there is nothing to eat, so you have to bring something to eat." Wei Yan replied.
"How do you know?" The old man asked again.
"When I went to find a place to live just now, the little second brother was kind, afraid that I would have nowhere to stay, so he told me this place, just in case. Moreover, the ancestral house is also close to the official road, so it is convenient to travel tomorrow. Wei Yan replied.
"That's the best, let's go buy enough wine and meat immediately, and stay in that ancestral house for one night, but it's not bad, so we don't have to squeeze with these birdmen." Guan Liang, the dwarf who mentioned the king knife, has always been vulgar in his speech.
Qi Xiaoxiao was afraid that Wei Yan would be bullied again, so she took the lead in going north with her, and only let three men buy all kinds of things.
Xiao Er really didn't deceive Wei Yan, Wei Yan and Qi Xiaoxiao went out of the town, and after walking less than five miles, they had already seen the ancestral house, which was still magnificent, but a little decayed and dilapidated.
The three men had fast feet, and after buying things, they soon caught up with Wei Yan and Qi Xiaoxiao.
The five of them came to the abandoned ancestor together, only to see that the gate was already covered with cobwebs.
"How did a huge family decay like this?" Wei Yan sighed.
"Oops! It doesn't matter what he's doing so much, let's go in first. Guan Liang said, kicked the door open early, and went into the house first.
When the three of them came to the lobby of the ancestral house, they saw that it was already covered with dust, and many of the furniture were rotten.
"Let's clean up this place, stay for one night and leave, and don't go to other places." Qi Xiaoxiao suggested.
"I think it's okay, it's quite big here, enough for us to rest." The boss Qi Xiangshi also agreed.
So the five of them quickly started to clean the lobby, and lit the fire, found a few chairs that could barely sit on, and gathered around the fire to eat meat and drink wine, chatting and laughing, but also very happy. Of course, the cooked beef that Wei Yan bought was also shared, anyway, they will go together after that.
The five of them talked very speculatively, were full of food and drink, and were about to rest, when suddenly the door of the lobby was kicked open with a "squeak", and two people immediately appeared at the door. The first person was carrying an ancient sword, and his momentum was vigorous, and he was not an idle person at first glance.
"It turned out to be the four ghosts of western Sichuan!" The man with the sword glanced at the five people and immediately recognized them.
"Sword Immortal Zhou Yingshang!" Qi Xiangshi also immediately recognized the other party.
The person who came was the sword immortal Zhou Yingshang's apprentice, and the person who teased Wei Yan today turned out to be Zhou Yingshang's disciple Chang Zhengwen.
"Master, it's they who injured the disciple." Chang Zhengwen pointed to the four ghost roads in western Sichuan.
