Assassination Volume III, Manor, Inn, Restaurant
3. Manors, inns, restaurants
Sure enough, as soon as Bai Xiaosheng's words were finished, Zhou Liang opened his mouth and asked, "Second sister-in-law, what are you talking about, what fairy world." Could it be that there are really immortals in the world, then I must ask them another day, why are there so many treacherous people in the world, and why are there so many injustices in the world? ”
Bai Xiaosheng looked at Li Tianxing with embarrassment, in fact, what she said was just a guess. If the Valley of the Immortals seemed to her to be a very mysterious place, then the Three Realms Gate was a legend, a legend that she had only heard of the name. After all, she had seen the valley lord of the Immortal Valley when she was a child, and she had a day of fun with the valley lord's palm pearl, although she had already sealed these memories.
Seeing the expression on Bai Xiaosheng's face, Li Tianxing knew that she was also curious. So he leaned back in his chair, rested the back of his head on his hands, closed his eyes, and said, "Yao Guang, Yao Guang, you are really blessed! Indeed, the place I went to was called the Three Realms Gate, and it was a very secret, very ancient sect.
The reason why the Three Realms Gate is called the Three Realms is that it is composed of the Holy Realm, the Divine Realm, and the Immortal Realm. They can be said to have nothing to do with the entire martial arts, but they have a little to do with it.
Since Emperor Yongle ascended the throne, this dynasty ordered that there was no longer the title of sword god in the rivers and lakes, and everyone thought that it was because of the royal taboo. Due to the power of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, no one in the people dared to mention this topic. But in fact, Yongle passed on this title to one person, and let her heirs inherit this title. This person is the one from the Three Realms.
These Three Realms Gate are not only mysterious, but also have many things that are rare in the world. For example, the chair that Yao Guang sat on that was invulnerable, invulnerable, and could withstand strong pressure was from there. ”
Speaking of this, Yao Guang suddenly knelt on the ground. Seeing Yao Guang like this, Bai Xiaosheng also knelt down.
I saw Yao Guang leaning over and bowing: "The great kindness of the ☯ teacher, Yao Guang is unforgettable." Please tell them on my behalf, and I will definitely pay them back, and I will never embarrass Master. ”
Li Tianxing laughed and helped Yao Guang into the chair, poured him a glass of wine, and said: "We don't have any relatives, for so many years, we have been like a family. I do owe them a favor for this chair, and I will repay it. It's just that you can't help me with what you can do. Thankfully, there's nothing dangerous, so you don't have to worry. ”
After staying in Liulinzhuang for a few days, everyone had to leave. At this time, Li Tianxing stopped everyone and assigned ☯ them tasks. This is the first time that Li Tianxing has assigned ☯ them a task after they left the school, and it also shows that this matter is more important in Li Tianxing's eyes.
asked Li Tianxing to arrange things for everyone as an elder, he was really a little unaccustomed to it, because he was turning his back to everyone at the moment, so he cleared his throat and said: "Everyone must know that the heart of the Shaolin faction was killed, and the head of the sect, Beiyun, was looking for the murderer everywhere for this.
According to the information I have received, at this moment he has personally gone to Kunlun to secretly investigate. Back then, I was young and crazy, and I killed the 'Ten Swords' in one go, and now I regret it. Although he did nothing wrong, he acted recklessly. Three of the 'Ten Swords' are Shaolin lay disciples ☯, so I always feel indebted to them psychologically. Therefore, I want you to do your part in this matter, so as to make up for the trouble I caused for Shaolin on the spur of the moment. ”
When the Eight Heroes heard Li Tianxing say this, they all hugged their fists and said, "But according to the master's orders." ”
"Okay!" Hearing this, Li Tianxing was also a little excited in his heart: "Yao Guang, you are newly ☯ married and have difficulty moving, so you should stay and heal your injuries first." Yue Jun and Li Tang, the two of you go to He Lin, take him to the Kunlun faction, and explain the reason for the matter. Zhou Liang, gentle, Wu Kong
, the three of you will go to Kunlun as the vanguard ☯. First apologize to the head of Wu Ying, and at the same time help Master Beiyun secretly, remember not to let the Shaolin and Kunlun swords meet each other. However, it is also more dangerous for the three of you to go to Kunlun, it is best to discuss a time, and when the time comes, regardless of whether Yue Jun and Li Tang find He Lin or not, they will all go to the Kunlun faction together. As for Han Yi and Chen Ping, the two of you have a heavy task, and you have to deal with 'leaving no grass behind'. ”
After being assigned by Li Tianxing, Han Yi and Chen Ping rushed to Songpanwei in Sichuan without stopping.
The organization ☯ of "leaving no grass behind" is extremely mysterious, and it never leaves traces that can be traced. But there is no impermeable wall in the world, and Bai Xiao has always found clues from Li Tianxing's mouth ☯. When Li Tianxing was leaving, he said to everyone: "There is something wrong in Sichuan. ”
The land of Bashu has the reputation of the country of abundance ☯, where the mountainous areas are the mainstay, the fertile fields are thousands of miles, the soil is fertile and the water is sweet. Han Gaozu Liu Bang and Liu Bei both gained a foothold on this, but the ultimate goal was to make the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. There are many reasons for this, and economic backwardness is one of them.
Songpanwei, a prefecture and county in Sichuan, has underdeveloped economic and transportation, but there is a building here that is extremely incommensurate with this place - an inn.
Not only are there inns, but they are also built outside the city. None of this is surprising, but it is mutually beneficial to have a small inn outside the city to help those who are foot traders or who cannot catch the gates of the city to close.
But remember, it's not just a small inn, it's a big hotel, the most luxurious hotel in the world. In such a place and such a situation, a hotel has been built that is even more luxurious than the most luxurious inn in Beijing ☯, what does this mean? Don't they want to make ☯ money? What support do they have? When will they be able to recoup their capital?
Due to its remote location, as long as you spend some money up and down, who cares about this weird building.
It is also due to the remoteness of the region and the lack of management, there is no decent official road here.
Han Yi and Chen Ping rode two little donkeys and bumped on the rugged mountain road that had been walked out on their ☯ legs for a long time.
I only heard Chen Ping say: "This poor mountain and bad water is strange to say, there is not even a robber." It's good to come out with a small eye, so it's good for me to move my muscles and bones. If this continues, the body ☯ will fall apart. ”
Gradually, the road in front of me became a little wider, and the mountains on both sides seemed to be carved wider. The further you walked, the wider it became, and in the end the road ahead was fifty feet wide, but it was blocked by a large green bamboo forest. The two of them had to get off the donkey and walk through the bamboo forest.
After walking for a while, I came to the destination of this trip, the hotel that should not have been built in this place.
I saw the words "Baichun Building" written on the head of the hotel.
The hotel is very luxurious, the materials used in the construction are all of the best choice, the lacquer of the wood, the lime of the wall, are added to the fine spices, so that you can smell the fragrance in front of the bamboo forest. Walking into the hotel, the two found that this was not just a hotel, it was simply a manor. Using a manor as a hotel and using a hotel as an inn is unheard of. And judging by the name, this is supposed to be a restaurant.
The rockeries and strange rocks in the garden are all carefully selected from all over the country, and the exotic flowers and plants are also beautiful, and the walls of the buildings are smeared with colorful powder. These are not simple powders, they are all kinds of gemstones and jade pounded into powder and coated on the wall.
Every little place here is very nicely furnished.
Han Yi and Chen Ping both lived in a wealthy family, and Han Yi was the first peasant family of scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants, but even so, the two were shocked ☯ by the scene in the park. Walking in it, I only feel that the surrounding grass, trees, mountains and stones are all in harmony, not a single point, not an inch.
Although it was almost dusk, many beautiful young men and young ☯ girls dressed in incense costumes were busy hanging golden lanterns on the eaves, rocks, railings, and branches, illuminating the garden as bright and dazzling as the rising sun.
A young man in a pale cyan silk robe was directing everyone, and when he saw Han Yi and Chen Ping, he put down his work, stepped forward and bowed and said, "The two inns are sharpened or lived." ”
Han Yi asked: "Didn't you say that this is a tavern, how can you still live in a hotel?" ”
The young man replied, "We can naturally stay here, but in the past, the guests only ate and did not live in the restaurant, so they probably thought that the accommodation here was more expensive." After a long time, it became a restaurant, and the two guest officers asked if they were staying in the hotel. ”
Chen Ping asked, "Are there really guests here?"
The young man smiled: "Look at what the guest officer said, we are open for business, what can we do without guests?"
Han Yi said: "No matter what else, just look at your clothes here, and you know that there is a lot of money here." ”
Chen Ping said on the side: "Whether you are as luxurious as a palace or dilapidated as a dog kennel, as long as it is not a black shop, we dare to live." With that, the two of them went to the store.
When the young man saw this, instead of leading the way in front of him, he stretched out his hands to stop them: "Two guest officers, please slow down." ”
"What's the matter, I'm afraid we won't be able to pay for the house?" Han Yi was often looked down upon as a peasant ☯ in the countryside because of his congenital appearance. The young man stretched out his hand to stop them, and Han Yi was the first to have such an idea, so he was not polite when he spoke.
The young man hurriedly explained: "The two guest officers misunderstood, they are all guests, how dare the little one have such an idea, I just want to ask the two if they have made a reservation." ”
Chen Ping asked on the side: "This is strange, could it be that your store is already full of guests?"
The guest officer laughed, and now all the rooms in the store are vacant, and there are no guests. It's just that although the store is small and doesn't have much business, each house has its own rules. If you do not make a reservation in advance, the shop will not be accepted. ”
Han Yi snorted coldly: "There are not a single guest, but there are a lot of rules." ”
Chen Ping sneered and said sarcastically: "This is also a small shop! Although we don't have an appointment, we just pay you more, you open the door to do business, how can you bombard the customers out." Besides, it's getting late, and you can't just watch us sleep in the barren mountains. ”
When he heard that he was going to make an appointment, Chen Ping was absolutely sure that there was something wrong with it. So he wants to stay here, the purpose is to get to the bottom, but he can't make it too obvious.
Hearing that the two did not make an appointment, the young man was shocked, but this expression was fleeting (although it was still captured by Chen Ping), and soon returned to a smiling face. It's just that this smile is different from the smile just now, and the expression just now is clearly a flattering smile towards the guests. And now the laughter is a sneer, a chilling sneer.
This person is not simple, his strength is not necessarily strong, but the murderous aura on his body is afraid that it is still above Cui Shuiye. Build a luxurious palace-like inn in this bitter cold place, set up a rule that you must make a reservation to stay, plus a young man with good strength. This made the two of them feel that this trip was the right one, even if it had nothing to do with not leaving an inch of grass, there were other conspiracy ☯ brewing here.
"Then we can have a meal here, right?" Chen Ping took a step back first. He knew that in order to save his life in front of the well-fed tigers and wolves, he must make them feel that they were not in danger. Showing weakness was the first lesson they learned under Li Tianxing.
It's just that the young man still didn't move, and his face with a cold smile just shook his head slightly.
"It seems that there is no way. Chen Ping made a helpless gesture ☯: "We only have to sleep in the barren mountains." With that, he pulled Han Yi out.
As soon as he walked a few steps, he heard Yingying's laughter in the hall behind him, and then heard the woman say, "Two guest officers, please stay." ”
Hearing the shouting, the two stopped and turned around, only to see a woman in her early twenties standing in front of them. The compound was fifty paces to the hall, and the woman was still in the back hall when she laughed, and when she spoke, she reached the courtyard, and the two turned around and were in front of them. You must know that the two have come to the gate, but the woman can come to the two in an instant, which is not easy.
But what made the two of them care more was the chilling murderous aura on her. Don't look at him as a weak woman in her early twenties, I'm afraid that the murderous aura can only be found after killing a thousand ☯. But now it appeared in this woman, I don't know if it was the misfortune of the person who was killed, or her misfortune.
The woman's appearance can be regarded as a rare beauty in the rivers and lakes, and her every move, smile and smile can make men fascinated. She is not only beautiful, but also very good at dressing up. Dressed in a pale pink dress and light makeup on her face, she completely matched this manor-like inn.
It's a pity that Han Yi and Chen Ping's thoughts are not on this at all, the two of them have four eyes, all staring at each other's hands, feet, waist, and head. Wherever they could put people to death, they didn't let go.
Being stared at by two people, the woman also felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly made a blessing for the two, smiled slightly, and showed ☯ a row of bright teeth.
"If you don't like the humble wilderness shop, please stay for one night. As he spoke, he turned to lead the two of them.
As the woman spoke, the two of them smelled a faint fragrance, which was really like an orchid. When he turned around, it was even more like dancing. If it weren't for that murderous aura, the two would really think that they were in a fairyland, and it was the fairy in the sky in front of them. But the woman was not a fairy in the sky, and the two were not ordinary people, so they did not stay and drool on the spot. They just kept up slowly, keeping a distance from the woman.
At this distance, no matter what kind of attack the woman used, they were ninety percent sure that they could block it.
The woman led the two of them to the guest room, and when she walked to the young man's side, she suddenly stopped, and said to the young man with a straight face: "How can you treat the two guest officers like this, now that it is getting late, can you really ask the two to sleep in the wilderness?"
When the young man said this, he couldn't help but take half a step back, and immediately after standing still, he said in his slightly trembling ☯ voice, "No...... Not so...... Just because ...... It's only because of the rules that I ...... I'm just ......"
"Rules are dead, are you dead too?"
As soon as the word "death" came out, the young man was so frightened that he took another step back, and his face turned pale.
The young man's martial arts are actually not weak, but he was still scared half to death by her, which shows how terrible she is. Although the woman's martial arts are much higher than those of the young man, a terrible person does not necessarily have terrible martial arts. As long as you can make others feel fear, but you don't know why, that's the real fear.
The woman stopped talking, and Han Yi and Chen Ping had already stepped closer. A woman can stop, but she can't. The other party may have guessed their identity, but the play still has to be played. Otherwise, if you act without knowing the situation, you will definitely suffer.
They had already been on the road for a day, and it was the opportunity for people to be sleepy. It would be unwise to provoke the other party at a time when the time, place, and people are not in their favor.
Of course, the other party will not make a rash move until he knows his strength, so it is safe tonight ☯.
