Turned out of the courtyard wall of the iron-striking house, the iron-striking family did not notice anything, the family slept like a dead pig, and it was estimated that they could not wake up with a gong placed in front of their ears.

Fortunately, the courtyard wall of the iron house is not very high, Qin Chuan put two stones under his feet, stood on it, reached the top of the courtyard wall with both hands, and with a hard pick, he turned out.

Climbed out of the courtyard wall, for a while, Qin Chuan was a little dazed and at a loss, the most important thing was that he didn't know where to go?

Even if you go to the old man for help, it's dark now, and it's not easy to hurry, so you have to wait for dawn to think about how to go back.

So now, although Qin Chuan is out, he doesn't know where to go to spend this long night?

And he can't sleep until dawn all the time, so he won't be able to leave as soon as it dawns, the most important thing is that Qin Chuan doesn't want to leave during the day, he must leave at night.

This is because Qin Chuan has a strong sense of self-esteem, and if he leaves during the day, he will have a sense of shame that the insults he has received in the blacksmith these days have been exposed in broad daylight.

It's better to leave alone at night, silently, unaware, as if nothing had happened.

In order to avoid having too many dreams at night, Qin Chuan did not delay, he spied on the situation early, and felt that it was almost there, so he started to act.

Now, it is out, and Qin Chuan doesn't plan to do the business of striking iron anymore, now Qin Chuan knows that this iron thief is not a good errand, he doesn't know, how did he think of learning to strike iron?

No way, in the middle of the night, you have to find a place to sleep this night, and when it is time to go to bed at night, you must sleep, you have to rest, otherwise what will you do during the day? You can't turn night day and night upside down.

Liangzhou is Liangzhou, the lights on the streets are not extinguished in the middle of the night, there are still pedestrians walking, and some shops and taverns are still open, and there are still people eating supper in the taverns.

It's been a few days since he came to Liangzhou, but Qin Chuan still knows very little about the situation here, and he doesn't even know how much a pound of vegetables here.

Not to mention anything else.

So Qin Chuan now wants to find a small hotel to stay in for one night, but he is afraid that it will be too expensive and he can't afford to live in it, and if he goes in and asks, he won't stay, it will be very embarrassing.

In the end, Qin Chuan, who had been wandering on the street for a while, decided to find a hotel that looked a little tattered, went in and asked the price, and it would be one night, estimating that he had enough money on him.

After looking around, he finally saw a hotel that didn't even have the name on the signboard, Qin Chuan thought, "This is the only one." ”

"Hey, how much money do you have for a night?" Qin Chuan approached the counter and asked one of the shopkeepers inside.

I saw the shopkeeper look down at Qin Chuan, and then stretched out a finger: "One or two!" ”

Qin Chuan felt that one or two would definitely be more expensive than other places, but in this place, compared to other hotels, it would be several times cheaper.

And the silver on his body is still enough, and it is estimated that when he goes back, he will find a carriage and drive all the way back, which should be about the same.

"Open me a room." Qin Chuan said to the boss.

"Okay, officer, wait a minute, I'll show you the room right away."

He was not in a hurry, and actually asked Qin Chuan to wait for a while, and Qin Chuan was almost unable to stand now, but he had been playing iron for a day during the day, and he had not rested much until now.

"Guest officer, please come with me, I'll show you the room."

Qin Chuan followed the shopkeeper. It's not bad, Qin Chuan feels that the attitude of this shopkeeper is okay, and his words are quite polite, which is acceptable.

The shopkeeper took Qin Chuan to a room upstairs: "Look, how is this room?" ”

Qin Chuan looked at it and felt that it was okay, but what could not work, for a person like Qin Chuan, even if it didn't work, it had to be done.

There's no way, let's just go for one night, and then talk about it when it's dawn.

In fact, Qin Chuan didn't want to live in a hotel, if it wasn't so cold outside, the most important thing was that he didn't want to sleep on the beds that others had slept on, and it felt very unhygienic.

But isn't this a special case, if he stays outside all night, he will probably have to braids the next day.

I don't know how, the weather here, during the day, it's okay, it's not hot or cold, it's just right, but at night, it's very cold, and I can't sleep without a quilt.

The shopkeeper took Qin Chuan to see the room, and left on his own, and the house money was paid by Qin Chuan first, which was different from the inn in the town where Qin Chuan lived last time, and that was to settle the account when he left.

Qin Chuan spent the night on the bed in the room.

The price is different, the quality of the things is indeed different, the quilt on the bed smells, and I don't know how long it hasn't been washed, Qin Chuan is useless, he just lifted it to the side, and lay down, fortunately, the stove was burned in the room, and it was not too cold.

Finally at dawn, Qin Chuan got up, left the hotel, and walked towards a car market outside that had parked some carriages and was engaged in the business of pulling people.

He's going to hire a wagon to go back. I'm not going to walk back. This 500-mile journey, if you go, it is too slow, Qin Chuan feels that he has to hurry up to find the old man, the sooner the better, strike while the iron is hot, otherwise it will be too late, and the old man may not be found.

That's it, it's been more than ten days since the last time I met the old man.

"How much money is it to go to Pi County?" Qin Chuan approached a horse owner and asked.

"Which Pi County?" The owner glanced at Qin Chuan.

"Do you have a map?" Qin Chuan asked.

"Yes." As he spoke, he took out the map: "Look at which Pi County it is, I don't know." ”

Qin Chuan glanced at the map a few times, seemed to find the place he was talking about, pointed to a place on the map and said, "This is it!" ”

"Then it's far away, five hundred miles, at least three days." The owner of the car is obviously raising the price: "This price, it's hard to say, how much can you give?" ”

"A tael of silver." Qin Chuan stretched out a finger.

If the owner is unwilling, then other car owners here must be willing to take over this business, so the business was snatched away, so the owner did not dare to ask for more, and said: "Okay, I'll pull, get in the car." ”

Qin Chuan got into the car, and along the way, the owner of the car quickly whipped up his horse and drove the carriage to Pixian. Pi County is the state and county where Qinchuan is located.

Three days later, when he arrived at the place, the carriage owner took Qin Chuan to the place where he had last met the old man according to Qin Chuan's meaning.

Qin Chuan got out of the car, and after paying the money, the owner drove the car back, but Qin Chuan did not delay for a moment, and immediately went to the mountain to find the old man.
