Chapter 187: The Wind Rises to Help the Waves

Farewell to Uncle Li, Mu Beiting returned to his room, and after simply cleaning up some fine and soft things, he turned off the lights and went to bed. In the past few days, he has been riddled with miscellaneous things, and he has not closed his eyes much, but fortunately, there is not much left now, and his heart is slightly relieved.

After a long night's sleep, Mu Beiting woke up and turned around, but he was not in a hurry to get out of bed, but sat up and meditated until he had finished the fifth watch, and then got up and dressed, and after a quick wash, he picked up the packed baggage and walked out of the room.

It was still early, the sky was not bright, and the courtyard was quiet, except for the occasional insect chirping. He quietly walked out of the courtyard, and then led the red horse in the stable, and then walked towards the east gate.

The head of the soldiers guarding the city gate today is Mu Beiting's old acquaintance, but when he saw that Mu Beiting was going out of the city so early, he couldn't help but be curious, so he stepped forward to ask.

Mu Beiting was in a hurry to leave, and he didn't want to talk to him too much, but simply explained that he was going to go out to a distant door as a guest, so he hoped that it would be convenient.

When the soldier saw that he was in a hurry, he didn't say anything more at the moment, turned around and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to let him go, and even the road guide was exempted from inspection.

As soon as Mu Beiting stepped through the city gate hole, he turned over and jumped on the horse, he had memorized the path yesterday, and at this moment he whipped the horse and hurried east along the official road.

This jujube red horse is really a good horse, not to mention the extremely fast foot, even the endurance is also first-class. Mu Beiting drove this BMW to travel, his heart was very happy, except for a sharp rest along the road, he was walking non-stop and moving quickly. It wasn't until dusk that he realized that he had traveled a long way today, so he found a nearby inn to live in.

After he settled down the jujube red horse, he went to the lobby for dinner, and when he returned to the room, it was already dark, he lit a fire and lighted the lamps and candles, took out a map from his bosom and spread it on the table to look at it, and could not help but admire: "What a good horse and a good horse! But a day's work has covered a small half of the distance, and with such foot strength, it seems that in three days you will be able to reach the town of Pingguan." ”

Put away the map, turn off the lights and go to bed, the sun and wind on the way also made him feel a little tired, and he fell asleep after a while on the bed.

The next day, he got up early and went downstairs, asked the man for some dry food and water, and then asked for a bowl of vegetarian noodle soup to eat, settled the house money, and went to the stable to get the jujube red horse. After another day, when he had settled down in the evening, he checked the map again and found that the rest of the journey would only take another half a day.

Seeing that his destination was getting closer and closer, his mind began to change. Although Yang Sanqing's character back then was quite frank and upright, but time has passed, who dares to guarantee that this person's personality will not change with time? He couldn't help but wonder again, will Yang Sanqing secretly set up an ambush to wait for him this time?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be cautious, and secretly thought of a countermeasure. After meditating for a while, he said secretly: "The official road is not suitable to go anymore, you have to find another path to come out." After a comparison, he chose one of the relatively close routes to memorize, and after putting down the map, he secretly thought: "I should also change my outfit." Suddenly, he remembered that there had been a village on the road before, and the post house was not too far away, so he picked up the map and went out of the room, went downstairs and led the red horse, and hurried to the village.

It was evening, and every household in the village began to light a fire to cook, and green smoke gradually rose in the sky of the village.

As soon as Mu Beiting walked into the village, he saw a peasant man wearing a gray cloth coat and a half-new hat walking towards him. So he stepped forward to stop the man and said, "Disturb my brother for a moment, I want to discuss something with you next." ”

When the man heard this, he began to look Mu Beiting up and down, and then asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Mu Beiting said bluntly: "I want to exchange clothes with you, and I want the hat on my head." Of course, I'll give you five taels of silver as compensation, don't you think that's good?"

When the man heard such a request, he immediately opened his mouth in surprise, he couldn't believe that this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing would actually fall on his head, you must know that the clothes of this person in front of him are silk shirts, which are more than a hundred and ten times more expensive than the coarse cloth clothes on his body, and more than that, in addition, he can get an additional five taels of "compensation" silver. After a short period of surprise, he pinched his thigh, found that everything was real, and immediately hurriedly said: "I'll change with you, I'll change with you!"

Mu Beiting hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile: "How can anyone strip naked on the street? Let's go to the woods on the side of the road to change." ”

The man had no choice but to pull back his pants, which had slipped below his knees, and nodded his head again and again. So the two of them walked into the woods and began to exchange clothes. After changing his clothes and leaving the woods, Mu Beiting took out five taels of silver and handed it over, and after saying "thank you", he turned over and walked to the hillside again.

The man looked at Mu Beiting's departing back, was stunned for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "If you still have such a need in the future, just come to me again!

Mu Beiting returned to the lodging, first went to eat, and then rushed to the stable to find the man in charge of the horse, and said: "I want to borrow a horse tomorrow, and the little brother will prepare it for me tonight, and I will use it early tomorrow morning." ”

The guy said curiously: "Why don't you let your good horse go, but come to rent the horse here?"

Mu Beiting didn't say anything, but said with a smile: "My horse needs to be stored here for a few days, and I have to worry about the little brother to take care of it." After speaking, he took out ten taels of silver and stuffed it into the man's hand.

That guy got this big ingot of silver, how could he have the heart to ask anything else, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and patted his chest vigorously to Mu Beiting to guarantee the ticket.

Mu Beiting felt the most awkward and uncomfortable when he was flattered, so he quickly got out of the stable, went to the lobby, and after eating a bowl of noodles casually, he went back to the room to rest.
