Chapter Eighty-Eight: Sunrise
Early in the morning of the second day, Li Chenfeng and his party got up early, and the silver-toothed shopkeeper who had just opened the door looked at the guests downstairs, put down the bench in his hand, and stepped forward to ask.
"Are you leaving, if you don't dislike eating a pot of gruel with me, it's not too late to leave. The silver tooth shopkeeper said.
Li Chenfeng looked at Fan Weisheng and the Jin family sisters, the three of them were already weak, and it was unreasonable not to eat some food, so they nodded and agreed.
"Then it's a hassle shopkeeper. Li Chenfeng said.
"It's just a few bowls, it's just wheat mixed with water, and it's not worth much. ”
The silver tooth shopkeeper followed and served a bowl to everyone, and the golden gruel was particularly bright and bright in the bowl with the black magnetic base.
"Why didn't I see your shopkeeper. Li Chenfeng blew the hot air lightly, sucked it carefully, and asked.
The silvertooth shopkeeper put down the iron spoon in his hand, sat on the bench with a porcelain bowl, and said: "That kid hasn't woken up yet, and he is in the prime of life. ”
Li Chenfeng was a little embarrassed, thinking that his strength might have been too great last night, and he was unconscious until he was awake at such a time.
"Why is it so dawning, why is there no sound in the scene left over from last night. Li Chenfeng concealed his embarrassment and diverted the topic.
"It's not time yet, Wudu is different from other places, and the area where people are already panicked will naturally change some of people's habits, especially when they get up early in the morning, and the sun must rise and sprinkle it in the house. ”
Li Chenfeng thought to himself that fortunately, the shopkeeper was kind, otherwise everyone would be afraid to wait at the gate of the city, looking forward to the sun shining high and the light scattered all over the ground.
"Then thank you to the shopkeeper. Fan Weisheng drank the steaming rice porridge, and his body warmed up a lot.
The silvertooth shopkeeper nodded in response, and muttered, "I don't know where a few people are on the other side of this trip?"
"There is nowhere to go when you are home. Li Chenfeng said.
The silvertooth shopkeeper was not given such a perfunctory answer, and was estranged in his heart, but smiled and said: "It's me who is too talkative, and the rivers and lakes don't care about the way out, and they don't ask the way out." ”
"Having said that, the shopkeeper is also a person from the rivers and lakes. Li Chenfeng said.
"It's not counted, for the big rivers and lakes, it's just one less soul under the knife, one more shopkeeper who loves to listen to the stories of the rivers and lakes, one less and one more, and the rivers and lakes won't care. The shopkeeper said.
Listening to what he said, it can be regarded as a proper explanation, and Li Chenfeng naturally will not get to the bottom of the true identity of the silver tooth shopkeeper.
"I don't know what kind of story do you have to listen to the shopkeeper?" Li Chenfeng said.
"Dozens of pieces, large and small, are all small fights, if you give it to the storyteller, I'm afraid it will also be disgusted nonsense, and if you count it, there is only one story to take. The silver tooth shopkeeper said.
"How is the story?" Li Chenfeng said curiously.
The silvertooth shopkeeper did not tell the story, but gave a strange look, raised his arm lightly, and pointed at Li Chenfeng's body.
This gesture is well known to everyone, who here doesn't know last night's movements, even the Jin family sisters, even accompanied by the cracks in the window, peeking sideways, especially now it is still a mess on the street, I am afraid it is the best proof.
Li Chenfeng wanted to humbly refuse, but the wooden window that was destroyed by his sword aura last night was blown by the breeze, making a squeak-squeak-sound, Li Chenfeng couldn't help but chuckle, and blocked back the words he wanted to exit.
"I don't know who Gongzi is taught by?" said the silvertooth shopkeeper.
"Well, this is it. Li Chenfeng pointed at the old man Gu who was still pouring wine early in the morning.
The silver-toothed shopkeeper looked at the sloppy old man, and couldn't figure it out in his heart, so he had to raise his hand and say, "I don't know the name of the senior?"
Old man Gu didn't respond immediately, he mixed the liquor into the porridge by himself, stirred it slightly with his fingers, and then drank it all.
"You ask me?" said Old Man Gu.
The silvertooth shopkeeper nodded, looking at this peculiar way of eating, it was also an eye-opener.
"The surname is Gu, with a sword, damn it is old and stubborn!" Old man Gu just said a few words, and did not want to elaborate too much on this topic.
The silvertooth shopkeeper pondered a few words repeatedly, comparing them one by one in his mind, his expression changed from thinking to shock, and he looked at the old man surnamed Gu incredulously.
"Senior..."
"Can you fill my hand with a gourd?" said Old Man Gu.
The silver-toothed shopkeeper took the gourd and was very respectful.
"Naturally. ”
Watching the sun gradually rise, even through the cracks of the sword in the wall, Li Chenfeng knew that it was time and beckoned a few people to prepare to leave.
"The shopkeeper is last night's meal money and accommodation money, as for the rest of the loss to accompany you, as well as the debt money of the shopkeeper, if he asks, it should be last night's reparation. Li Chenfeng said.
The silvertooth shopkeeper did not refuse, looked at the silver on the table, raised his hand slightly, and thanked him, he is no longer a Jianghu person, but he also has the style of a Jianghu person.
The Jin sisters looked at the messy scene on the street, more shocked than last night under the black lights, especially the smooth incision, and even couldn't help but touch it with their hands.
"Let's go, get in the car. Li Chenfeng sat on the carriage and said.
Jin Xueya retracted her palm, pulled up Jin Xiaoxi, who was still very curious, and got into the carriage, Li Chenfeng shook the horse rope lightly, and the black horse carried the carriage towards the north of the city.
With the glorious land, many people have opened their doors one after another, and there are many pedestrians on the streets, not to mention the crowds. Soon the streets were in disarray, and they came into view, and many people came to watch.
The shopkeeper, who was still asleep, was also woken up by the noisy sound, rubbed his head that still had a headache, turned unbearably to get up, and when he saw the shopkeeper on the bench, he remembered that he had overslept.
The shopkeeper who should have been furious and counted himself down is surprisingly calm now, especially the silver tattoos on the table, and the white flowers are particularly beautiful.
"This is for you, you will be free in the future, where will love go!" The silver tooth shopkeeper picked up a piece of silver and threw it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the silver, if it wasn't heavy, he even suspected that it was fake, especially his head still hurt, otherwise he would have thought it was a dream.
"Shopkeeper, why did you give me such a big ingot of silver today? "The shop is small and second.
"I'm not that kind, it was given by yesterday's son, and he said that he was with you last night. The shopkeeper said.
Only then did the shopkeeper remember how the big bag on his forehead came about, and even clearly remembered the big skills of the boy in black.
"What about the shopkeeper?" said the shopkeeper longingly.
"Gone. ”
"Oh, what happened to the thieves last night?" said the shopkeeper.
The silvertooth shopkeeper didn't speak, but pointed to the noisy street and motioned for him to look for himself.
The shopkeeper pushed the door out, and the street was overcrowded, and the scene was surrounded to death, and there was nowhere to put his feet. After wasting a lot of effort and receiving a lot of scolding, the disheveled shopkeeper finally came to the front row.
The first thing that caught my eye was the fragmentation of the stumps in one place, and there were even a lot of people's vomit, if it wasn't for the shopkeeper who hadn't eaten, he would have to vomit clean.
After seeing such a bloody scene, I didn't want to look at it anymore, I skipped directly to the present, and looked at the vacant shop, which was not said to be glamorous, but now I am afraid that it can only be described as dilapidated, especially the corner of the eaves that has been cut off, the incision is smooth and neat, not at all like a human handiwork, the messy cut marks divide the house into several pieces, and the incomparably hard river stone wall can be seen from the incision crack.
The shopkeeper, who was so shocked by the picture, didn't care about the breathtaking thoughts in his heart, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the inn, not to mention the previous restraints, not caring about the abuse in his ears, until he stepped out of the crowd and returned to the inn.
"Shopkeeper, that was really done by the man in black yesterday. "The shop is small and second.
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "But it is, and there is no blade in hand, only this move!"
After hearing this, the shopkeeper was even more amazed, with a thousand thoughts in his heart and a slight excitement.
"What about the boy?" said the shopkeeper.
"Let's go!" said the shopkeeper.
"Ah, gone, when did you leave?" said the shopkeeper blindly.
"Get up early in the morning and go at sunrise!" said the shopkeeper.
After hearing this, the original excited look of the shopkeeper was replaced by disappointment, and he was a little complaining, blaming the shopkeeper for not calling him up, and blaming himself for not seizing the opportunity.
"I know that you are looking forward to the rivers and lakes, and you are here for more than a year to find a Ruyi master, you must complain in your heart that I will wake you up, but have you thought about it, whether he will accept you as an apprentice, so missing is also a kind of fate. ”
The shopkeeper nodded, carefully picked up the ingot silver, and said, "Shopkeeper, I don't know where the boy went." ”
"Due North!"
The shopkeeper had made up his mind and went to the outside, and the silvertooth shopkeeper knew what he wanted, and he was reluctant to give up, but he didn't open his mouth to stop him.
The shopkeeper was at the threshold, stopped and looked back at the silver-toothed shopkeeper, "In the future, you will wait for Zhou Xiaobai's three words to shake the rivers and lakes, and I will definitely bring you a large number of guests at that time, so that you can not earn enough silver." ”
"Get out, you're still shaking the rivers and lakes!" the silvertooth shopkeeper scolded.
The shopkeeper grinned and did not return the word, turned around and walked towards the north, which was also the rivers and lakes.
The silvertooth shopkeeper looked at the departing shopkeeper, there was no scolding on his face, and he also had a kind of reluctance, and muttered in his mouth.
"Zhou Xiaobai!"
