Section 46 Gathering on the Inn

Liu Yu saw that Lu Shengyan was haggard, so he said, "Aunt Lu, are you okay these days? Why don't we find a place to rest first." Lu Shengyan was still in great joy, and she didn't come to her senses, so she just nodded. Gongsun Mao said: "Let's go to my place to rest, right?" Lu Shengyan knew that what he was talking about was the coffin, so he pinched him fiercely and said, "What are you going back to do in that kind of obscure place?"

Liu Yu said: "Uncle Mao, I have a request, I don't know if you will agree." Gongsun Mao hurriedly hid a large piece of rock candy in his arms and said, "You want to eat my candy?" Liu Yu smiled: "No, I want to borrow your place to use it, anyway, Aunt Lu won't let you go back." Gongsun Mao said: "I don't do it, it's comfortable to sleep there!"

Liu Yu said: "In the future, with Aunt Lu here, we will have a more comfortable place to sleep, you can rest assured." Gongsun Mao turned his head to look at Lu Shengyan, Lu Shengyan nodded, and then he reluctantly said, "That'...... Okay!" Liu Yu got Gongsun Mao's answer, and walked towards the Inch Grass Ridge. Lu Shengyan didn't know what he was going to do, so he pulled Gongsun Mao to follow.

I saw Liu Yu pick up the corpse of an old Taoist priest from the ground, and sighed: "No matter what happened to this Taoist Sun during his lifetime, he died because of my senior brother, I want to bury him." Lu Shengyan is quite grudgeful, if Liu Yu dares to mention Zhu Xun in front of her, she will be furious.

However, today, she was able to meet Gongsun Mao, and she was in a good mood, so she no longer cared about it, and said with a smile: "So I will rely on you, but it's a pity that the good Nanmu coffin I grabbed from the coffin shop is cheaper than this old Taoist." She took Sun Laodao's body from Liu Yu and rushed down the mountain. Gongsun Mao clapped his hands and said it was fun, and quickly followed, helping Lu Shengyan grab Sun Laodao's two ankles. These two people were extremely fast, walking on the ground between the narrow roads of the mountains and mountains, and drifting down the mountain like a gust of wind. I think that Sun Lao Dao has pretended to be a ghost all his life, but he has never been such a god who soars through the clouds.

After the three of them buried Sun Laodao, it was almost dusk, so they walked in the direction of the market where Liu Yu and Gongsun Mao had been, hoping to find an inn to settle down in before dark. The three of them didn't have horses, so Lu Shengyan and Gongsun Mao simply grabbed Liu Yu's left and right hands respectively, performed light body kung fu, and drifted away. Liu Yu used the "donkey scurrying skill" at his feet, and before Lu Shengyan and Gongsun Mao could help him, he was already running fast. Lu Shengyan was really a little surprised when she saw it in her eyes.

On both sides of the road are villages burned by the Khitans, and the corpses of the killed people can be seen from time to time, and the scene is very desolate. Liu Yu glanced at it a few times, and then couldn't bear to look at it again. Lu Shengyan was originally a murderous person, and she was a little indifferent to this scene, and only cared about talking to Gongsun Mao along the way. Gongsun Mao smirked, and most of the time he answered the question.

When the three of them arrived at the market, they saw that the doors of the houses were closed, and the road was deserted, and it was estimated that the news of the Khitan people had been plundered everywhere, which frightened the people in the market to leave their hometowns one after another. Lu Shengyan stopped in front of one of the best inns in the bazaar, knocked several times, and no one came out to open the door. She simply used her internal force and slapped her palm on the door panel. There was a click, and the door opened, and two broken latches fell to the ground.

After the three of them entered the house, they saw that the table was littered with unfinished dishes, and in the curved ruler cabinet, the account books of the shopkeeper were also put away, and the people in the inn were obviously in a hurry, and they had no time to clean up.

Lu Shengyan smiled: "It's so good, no one botheres, we can live in whichever room we want." Dog baby, you go and choose a 'Tianzi No. 1 room' to live in, haha!" Liu Yu said: "Okay! You and Uncle Mao will live in the 'Dizi No. 2 room'." Lu Shengyan pretended to be angry: "See if I don't explode chestnuts and chisel you!" raised his hand to hit him, but Liu Yu pretended to dodge.

At this time, the sound of iron hooves sounded outside the house, getting closer and closer, and the table in the room trembled slightly, and the dishes and chopsticks sounded softly. Liu Yu said: "It's not good, it must be the Khitans who are here." Listening to this voice, there must have been thousands of people. Lu Shengyan didn't care, and said: "If they don't mess with us, let's just kill one by one, and kill one by one." Gongsun Mao stopped licking the candy, raised his head and said, "Do they have candy on them?"

While the three of them were talking, they saw dozens of Khitans dismount in front of the inn and escort a middle-aged man into the inn. The Khitan warriors who were behind immediately closed the door of the house. The Khitan people who were the leader, with shining armor, were estimated to be a big official in the Khitan army. He saw Liu Yu, Lu Shengyan and Gongsun Mao in the house, so he whispered a few words to the entourage on the side.

The attendant had a round white face, freshly shaved hair on his head, and two awkward pigtails, and at first glance he was a Han who had just joined the Khitans. After the traitor heard the official's words, he shouted at Liu Yu and the others: "Our general said that the shops on this episode are closed, and it is rare that your family of three has not escaped. Bring me all the good wine and food, and if our general is happy, he may take you as slaves. ”

Liu Yu looked down on him in his heart, and said, "Serve well, be his slave." If you don't serve him, or if you don't serve him well, what will you do with him?" The traitor saw that he was so hard-mouthed, for fear that the Khitan master would be angry when he heard this, and shouted to him: "You little rabbit cub, if you dare to talk to our general like this, aren't you afraid of death?"

Liu Yu said loudly: "Death is death, I will never be like a dog with you!" The traitor said: "You ......" was so angry that he couldn't speak. Seeing this, the middle-aged man who had been escorted by the Khitans laughed and said, "Good, good, good! Little brother, you said it so well! You are young, and your knowledge is much stronger than that of many adults." Good Tang people, why should they be dogs for Fanren!"

Liu Yu looked at the middle-aged man and saw that his arms were firmly bound by a pair of wooden shackles, and his legs were also chained. However, although his hair was disheveled and his face was yellow and thin, he still held his chest high and did not give in. Liu Yu saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but secretly admire.

The traitor translated everyone's words to the Khitan general, and the Khitan general's face turned purple with anger after hearing this, and he waved his fists and yelled at the middle-aged man for a while. At the same time, several Khitan warriors drew their waist swords and surrounded Liu Yu, Lu Shengyan and Gongsun Mao. Lu Shengyan was calm, Liu Yu grabbed her hand, her palms were already sweaty, and Gongsun Mao licked his piece of rock candy by himself, didn't look up, and didn't care about anyone.

The traitor translated to the middle-aged man: "Doctor Cui, our general said, as long as you are willing to go back with us." The best tents and beautiful concubines in Khitan are up to you to choose, you don't have to be confused and ruin your good future. Doctor Cui snorted, spit on the face of the traitor's entourage, and said, "Just because you are a lackey, you dare to threaten me!"

The traitor was so angry that he screamed, snatched the sword from a Khitan warrior, and was about to kill Dr. Cui. Dr. Cui's face did not change, and he was ready to be killed, not looking at him at all. Lu Shengyan saw that these Khitans had traveled thousands of miles to catch this middle-aged man surnamed Cui back, thinking that this person's medical skills must be extraordinary, so she secretly planned to take him from the Khitans and let him treat Gongsun Mao for madness.

When she saw that this traitor was holding a knife and wanted to kill Dr. Cui, she secretly used her hands to kill him, and as soon as the traitor made a move, she immediately killed him. However, this traitor raised the knife in his hand, but he didn't dare to fall after all, it is estimated that the life and death of this Dr. Cui is related to the fate of a certain Khitan bigwig. Seeing this, the Khitan general snatched the knife from the traitor's hand, pointed at the doctor and shouted.

The traitor's entourage said: "Our general said, if you don't know how to lift, he will cut off your head and use it as a wine jug, and ask you if you are afraid!" The doctor Cui raised his head and laughed, and said: "I, Cui Dongyang, have not been coerced by anyone all my life, and you want me to go to the Khitan and treat Na Yelu Shilu, but you don't want to! This person intrudes on my Central Plains and kidnaps my people in the Tang Dynasty, and he is a person who deserves to die! The sooner he dies, the better, the sooner the better, hahahaha!"

The Khitan general knew that what Cui Dongyang said must not be a good thing, so he asked the traitor entourage to translate it to him. But Cui Dongyang's words insulted Yelu Shilu, how dare this traitor translate, and his mouth was hesitant. The Khitan general simply pushed him away, hit his back against the wall, and stepped forward to jam Cui Dongyang's neck, roaring angrily in his mouth.

Seeing this, Lu Shengyan couldn't help but want to make a move, Liu Yu gently pulled the corner of her clothes, and whispered: "Aunt Lu, there are many of them, even if you win them, it is difficult to ensure that they take advantage of your unpreparedness and take Dr. Cui's life with one knife, so think twice." Lu Shengyan thought about it right, so she asked, "What should I do then?" Liu Yu said: "You might as well pretend to be the owner of this inn, you are my mother, Uncle Mao is my father, and then we will act at the opportunity." Lu Shengyan looked reluctant and said, "I won't be your mother!" Liu Yu glanced at her and said, "Do you think I want to?"

The traitor's entourage was pushed aside by the Khitan general, and he was in a state of panic, so he naturally didn't care to listen to them. Those Khitan warriors who surrounded them were naturally even more incomprehensible. Lu Shengyan casually picked up a wine jug from the curved ruler cabinet, grabbed a wine glass and filled it, and said loudly to the Khitan general: "General, don't be angry, everyone who has just come to the small shop, I think it has been a lot of hard work, please sit down at the table." The little girl will go to the kitchen and cook a few good dishes, and treat the generals!" Liu Yu knew that she didn't know how to cook at all, so she laughed secretly when she heard it.

The traitor hurriedly translated her words to the Khitan general. The Khitan people originally loved wine, and the Khitan generals rode on horseback for several days to run day and night, not to mention the hardships and fatigue, and the wine could not be stained with a drop. The Khitan people like to live in tents, not Vashe, and the reason why he broke into this inn was to find a sip of wine to drink.

I saw this Khitan general laughing, let go of Cui Dongyang's neck, took the wine glass from Lu Shengyan's hand, drank it all, and motioned to Lu Shengyan to bring some more wine. The Khitan warriors listened to the general's order and sat down one after another. Cui Dongyang was standing aside, but there was no seat. Liu Yu was very unaccustomed to it, so he stepped forward and pulled him to a table, pulled up two Khitan warriors, and invited him to sit down. The two Khitan warriors were furious and drew their swords. Seeing this, the Khitan general stopped drinking, and motioned for Cui Dongyang to sit down, quite a bit of grace and power. Seeing this, the two Khitan warriors had to stand aside obediently. Cui Dongyang was also not polite, picked up the iron chain on his feet, sat down with a golden knife, and smiled at Liu Yu: "Thank you, little brother, please bring me a pot of good wine!" Liu Yu said: "Okay!" turned back to Lu Shengyan and said, "Mother, serve the wine!"

Lu Shengyan glared at him fiercely, picked up the four wine jars with both hands, put them on the table in front of the Khitan warriors, and said with a smile: "Guest officers, please use it slowly!" Then she wanted to pull Liu Yu to the kitchen, and whispered: "Dog baby, you go cook!" Liu Yu said: "Didn't you say you did it?" Lu Shengyan said hurriedly: "I, I cook...... It's exposed!"

At this time, the door outside creaked, and Gongsun Mao was so frightened that he hurriedly hid the rock candy in his arms. Before anyone arrived, they arrived first, "The proprietress only cares about these Khitan guests, won't she entertain us?" The three of them pushed the door in, it was Han Bushou, Yue Shengsi, and Xue Hongmei.
