Chapter 221: The inn rests
When you are away from home, many things are unpredictable, and it is natural to have the ability to deal with them.
The group set out on the road again.
Although An Jin followed the caravan, it was not inconvenient to rest assured of the caravan, he also held several maps in his hands, two copies of himself, and two copies of other vehicles, lest he lose it and lose his direction when he turned back.
He also carries a compass to make it easier to identify the direction, in fact, he will also rely on other things to discern the direction.
It's very reliable.
Lilac watched An Jin rush along the way, and mentally distinguish the landmark places on the road to tell where they were, and told them that they had arrived at Wild Dog Ridge for a while, and said that a bridge over there was a village in the past.
It's reassuring to listen to.
Otherwise, this foggy will become more and more foggy, and the group will not be steady.
Occasionally, when An Jin concentrated on the road, he couldn't speak, and for a while he could only hear the movement of the convoy's wheels running over the dirt road.
And the sound of horses' hooves.
They also had to be careful when riding horses, and they all wore hats before setting off.
Fortunately, we finally passed through the thickest place of fog and walked down the mountain, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and a big man in the caravan over there also rode over and said to An Jin and Ma Yi: "Our boss said, we will be able to reach Xiaguan Town in another hour, we can go there to rest!" ”
An Jin responded and said, "The place that was originally scheduled to be there at noon can now be arrived in the afternoon!" Happened to be staying over there tonight, right? ”
Hearing this, Dahan also nodded and said: "This is natural, the more you walk, the worse the weather will be, and if you go down a little more, you are afraid that there will be rain, so you should put on all the rain gear!" ”
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but praise, "Your people are quite powerful, I'm afraid it's rare to encounter such bad weather, right?" I was stunned to be able to keep up with our footsteps! ”
Their caravan is not without an escort order, basically every time they deliver goods, it is extremely normal to piggyback on some rich people who are going to go far away.
It's also a deal.
But it is really rare to find a rich man who is so easy to talk to and has little to do.
And they can keep up with them, and there is no need to stop and rest again and again on the way, and there is no need for the caravan people to slow down for them.
It's amazing.
The big man also felt that it was almost time to rest, so he relaxed a little, and actually rode his horse to talk to An Jin on the side of their carriage before leaving.
As soon as he left, An Jin turned to Ma Yi and said to them, let them put on their robes, and they were afraid that it would rain after walking a while.
Horses are also valuable, but after a while of rain, people still can't stand it.
When they heard this, they also went to pass the word, but they did not have to stop, and the speed was not fast, so the people in the carriage went to find it and handed it to them.
Everyone put on their clothes, and sure enough, after walking a short distance, it was obvious that it was raining on the opposite side.
Lilac looked very curious, "It's really strange, we haven't rained at all, it's raining over there!" ”
Song Yue was not surprised, where this cloud was, it was naturally raining.
An Jin also pulled up the baffle in front of the carriage, and simply asked Ah Zuo and Ah You to go back to the carriage, and he himself brought a hat and put on a good coat.
As soon as you step into the rainy realm, it's completely different, and the air is full of wet earthy smells.
Song Yue also half-closed the window, in fact, there is a rain shield above the outside of the window, as long as the rain is not coming, it basically can't splash in without closing the window.
The road here is getting harder and harder.
The big man who came in front of him also said that he could arrive in half an hour, but in fact, they had only walked half the distance in half an hour, and now they had to be half an hour slower.
But everyone basically couldn't hold it back.
Therefore, I can only stop driving and come down to solve personal physiological problems.
Song Yue came down.
She tied up her skirt directly for convenience and wore it as a skirt, wearing pants underneath, which was really nothing to be embarrassed about.
Lilac was startled when she saw it, and hurriedly said no, how could she be seen in her underwear?
Song Yue thought about it, her approach is probably no different from wearing underwear outside modern people, and in the end she can only be blocked by Lilac holding a piece of cloth for her.
……
Isn't this still going to get wet?
But this time it was the cloth that got wet, not the hem of her skirt.
Lilac protected her, she was drenched like a chicken in soup, and her clothes and hair were half wet, but she didn't care at all.
Escorted Song Yue out to the toilet cleanly, and escorted it back refreshingly, without letting Song Yue get wet a little, Lilac was quite proud when she came back!
An Jin praised her.
Song Yue just asked her to quickly change her wet clothes, "Don't turn around and get caught in the cold." ”
Lilac hurriedly agreed, but she ran out to go to the toilet by herself, and finally came back with the two little maids.
They all had to change their clothes.
An Jin is not much better, he didn't want to change it yet, but in the end he was told by Song Yue, so he could only replace it, otherwise there was still half an hour away.
"It's just that you can't compare it with being in the city, and it's inconvenient to do anything."
Lilac finished changing her clothes and thought about it over there, and then stuffed all the changed clothes into a wrapper, packed them and put them away, and waited for them to be washed at the inn.
The two little maids also felt uncomfortable on the road, but they didn't complain.
Song Yue asked them to drink some water to warm their bodies, there was still water in the water bladder filled in front of them, it was definitely not hot, it was warm, but it was better than drinking cold water.
It's August, and it's hot when it's hot, but the temperature difference is very large, and it's even cooler when it rains.
Lilac and the others obediently drank the water.
The caravan shouted again that it was going to depart, and as soon as they left, they naturally had to follow.
An Jin also hurriedly drove to follow.
I sped all the way to the inn before dark.
However, because of the bad weather, there were many guests, and they had to queue up when they entered the town, and the caravan was not only their group.
The places where you can rest are all in all directions, and everyone gathers here.
I looked for the inn for a while.
The shopkeeper also laughed and joked, saying that if they came a little later, they would have nowhere to stay.
At this time, you can only stay outside in the open space, and it is definitely not as comfortable as the guest house.
An Jin was also very tired and didn't want to talk, so he quickly asked for two chase shops and two rooms, and Song Yue and Ding Xiang definitely wanted to sleep in one.
He and Ma Yi picked a few of them to live next to Song Yue and protect her.
Others slept in the Chase bunk below, watching some wagons and luggage.
Hot water is all you need.
The guards went to the public bathhouse on the first floor to take a shower, while Song Yue and the others waited for the shopkeepers to send hot water to freshen up in the bedroom, and it was already completely dark after all the arrangements were placed.
It rained constantly outside.
The lobby was very lively, with tables full of good wine and meat, and people from various caravans were eating meat and drinking a lot, with only a few locals scattered.
Ma Yi and they also ordered food in the lobby after washing, Song Yue did not treat his own people badly, and An Jin certainly did not treat them badly, and he also ordered a lot of delicious food.
