Chapter 45: Accommodation Turmoil
When this probe visits the old, a slightly jerky and handsome young man, set foot in the town. The rest of the town smiled knowingly. Zhilu said: This is another young man who came from afar to participate in the start of school.
"Boss, are there any vacancies here?"
Mu Chen entered an inn and came to the counter and asked.
"I'm sorry, but it's full. ”
"Oh, the last room just now is gone, please go to another house."
"Fully booked. ”
"Sorry, it's full. ”
"No availability. ”
The town was originally small, and after Mu Chen asked all the inns, he got a full reply. And in one of the inns, got an explanation from the kind owner.
"Young man, you also went to the Imperial City to practice martial arts and study, right? This June, our teenagers from all over the dynasty rushed to the Imperial City from all over the country to sign up. Our town is next to the official road, and it is a necessary place to go to the imperial city. So often at this time, it is overcrowded. I'm afraid you won't be able to find a vacant room, young man. I'll give you a suggestion, go and buy a futon next to it, and find a place on the street. ”
Mu Chen thanked the boss, and was ready to try his luck at the last inn, if he really didn't have it, he would buy a futon and spend the night under the eaves on the side of the road.
"Boss, is there any room available?" Mu Chen came to this inn without much hope. Tentatively asked. Even in the next sentence, I am ready to ask where the futon is sold.
But the boss's answer surprised Mu Chen.
"Guest, you're so lucky, just now a guest checked out and left. I'll ask Xiao Er to clean up for you, and you can move in right away. ”
Mu Chen's face was happy, and it was naturally better not to sleep on the street if he could not sleep on the street. It's going to take the money right away. But at this moment, a flying voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Wait a minute!"
Mu Chen looked back and saw a young man in a white power suit, holding a pretty girl in one hand. Towards the inn.
"Boss, do you still have a free room here?" The young man approached with a big grin, and without looking at Mu Chen, he asked the boss directly.
The boss looked embarrassed, "This is the last empty room in the store just now, and it has been given to this guest." ”
At this time, the young man seemed to have only discovered Mu Chen's existence, and glanced at him for the first time, then turned his head to look at the innkeeper, and directly threw out a piece of broken silver, "How much do you have to stay here?" "Let's go to other inns. ”
In dynasties, gold and silver were very rare. The purchasing power of one ingot of silver is also very large. A commoner can live a relaxed life for a year as long as one or two halves of silver.
The coins of dynasties are divided into copper, silver, and gold. Copper coins are counted in pieces, while gold and silver are counted in "taels". Generally speaking, a thousand copper plates are equivalent to one tael of silver. And ten taels of silver are roughly equivalent to one tael of gold.
Mu Chen came out this time, plus the money given by Meng Lao and the silver taels he brought out from Chenjia Village before, it was only seven or eight taels. And the broken silver pieces that the young man threw out casually were about half a tael, that is, five hundred wen. The price of a night's stay in the inn is only twenty or thirty wen, at most forty or fifty wen. This young man gave ten times the price at once, which can be described as generous.
The boss looked at the silver taels on the table, and looked at the young man holding a beautiful woman in his arms, dressed in brocade. looked at Mu Chen's obviously ill-fitting clothes again, and hesitated.
Mu Chen turned his head and prepared to leave, the tenfold price difference in front of the mercenary businessman, anyone would make the right choice. Although he is not poor, he is not born in a wealthy family, so he will not throw silver taels and this young man angry. And even if he is angry, with the seven or eight taels of silver on his body. At a glance, it was clear that Lu Dao was not the opponent of the young man in brocade clothes in front of him.
"This, guest. I'm sorry, but the last room in our store has been given to this guest. Why don't you talk to him, if he agrees."
Before the boss finished speaking, the young man snorted dissatisfiedly, and threw out a piece of broken silver and smashed it into Mu Chen's chest, "Take the silver and get out!"
The silver rolled in the air, and there was a hint of wind whistling, and it was obvious that there was a lot of force on it.
Mu Chen's face did not move, his hand stroked lightly in front of him, and the rapidly tumbling piece of silver seemed to have disappeared, and was grabbed by Mu Chen in his hand.
The young man was slightly stunned, and then showed a good expression, and he added a little strength to the throw just now. It won't hurt people, but it can make Mu Chen look like something, if it were an ordinary person, he would be directly smashed by this silver nugget in the chest and fall to the ground. And even if it is a martial artist who can't refine bones, he will be in a hurry.
But Mu Chen had an immobile expression, obviously at least a bone refining martial artist.
"Interesting, I didn't expect to meet a practitioner. Then let's solve it in the way of a warrior. Let's make a move, the loser will leave, and the winner will live in this room!"
Mu Chen naturally won't give up, besides, if the young man insulted him just now, if he taught him a lesson, it wouldn't be considered a violation of Meng Lao's instructions of "don't make trouble and not be afraid of trouble", right?
"What is winning. What does it mean to lose?"
Mu Chen stood indifferently and stood still, his expression was flat, although a slightly larger one looked a little untidy, but he was quite generous.
"Within three moves, whoever falls behind will be counted!"
The young man stepped back from the girl in his arms, stepped forward, and said proudly.
"Good!"
Mu Chen also nodded, his feet were slightly staggered, and he unconsciously wanted to pose for the posture of Bajiquan, but he suddenly thought of Meng Lao's instructions, Bajiquan could not be revealed until the origin was clear. So he hurriedly stopped.
But the young man took advantage of Mu Chen's stunned moment, stepped forward with his foot, and hit Mu Chen's chest with a punch.
The fist wind is whistling and full of strength. Obviously, this young man is physically strong, and at least he is also a martial artist in the bone refining period.
It is said that after Muchen's successful exchange of blood, his body has been in a period of adaptation after the exchange of blood. And because of the effect of exchange transfusion, the physical fitness is improving every day.
When will Mu Chen's physical fitness return to normal, that is, when the effect of blood exchange is exhausted. Mu Chen can also practice the practice of changing the marrow.
Therefore, in the face of the boy's punch, Mu Chen did not dodge or dodge, but also punched out.
It's going to be hard!
