Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Second Floor (1)
After Feng Shuzhu and Chu Qing left the Water Moon Palace, they deliberately avoided the official road and chose to walk in a quiet place where the mountains were high and the forests were deep. Along the way, there is nothing else except for enjoying the scenery, but I also have a general understanding of the mountains and rivers near the Water Moon Palace.
Chu Qing longed for the prosperous place of human habitation, so he begged Feng Shuzhu, no matter what, to live in a restaurant, and Feng Shuzhu also wanted to find a comfortable place to rest, eat a beautiful meal, and then take a bath to relieve fatigue. The opinions of the two coincided, and Chu Qing was happy.
As usual, the two of them walked slowly through the forest, and saw the birds and birds jumping among the branches of the trees, their plumage was mottled and gorgeous, and their cries were like chirping reeds, which was also quite pleasant. For a while, I forgot the ruggedness of the road, and unconsciously, I walked another five or six miles, and my eyes were bright, much more spacious, and I walked out of the dense forest.
Chu Qing looked back at the dense layers of ancient dense forests, and sighed, "Ah, Brother Feng, we actually walked out. ”
Feng Shuzhu also turned to look back, only to see the wind through the forest, the trees rose and fell layer by layer, like a surging ocean, the wind has not arrived and the refreshing air has come.
The two of them stood, feeling the breath of the inextricable wind, relieved for a moment, and prepared to hit the road again.
Chu Qing was excited, fantasizing that there were huge villages and towns ahead, bustling markets, and shopping and playing, and naturally the most important thing was to have a good restaurant and exquisite and delicious dishes.
In the middle of the journey, but I saw a wooden building in the distance, appearing in the flat place at the bottom of the mountain, at the edge of the inaccessible dense forest in this radius of hundreds of miles, such a huge building stands here, it is particularly eye-catching, and it is carved beams and painted buildings when you look closely, towering and majestic, and the momentum is extraordinary.
Chu Qing's eyes widened, it was hard to believe it for a while, and he rubbed his eyes again, and when he opened his eyes and looked again, he found that the wooden building still existed, so he was sure that it was not an illusion, but he still doubted: "Brother Feng, this place is so remote, how can there be such a big restaurant, could it be that it is a black shop, specializing in killing people for money, killing people and goods." ”
Feng Shu also looked at the wooden building, and after a while, he smiled and said: "The momentum is so extraordinary, the owner of the restaurant is definitely not good." Even if you want to kill for money, what does it have to do with us, you and I are just some small pieces of silver, if you really want it, give it, how can you give it away. ”
After Chu Qing listened, he exaggerated and said: "Oh, I said Brother Feng, you really don't know, I heard people say that many black shops don't care how much money you bring, and if you kill it, if you really don't have any money, you will be made into adult buns." ”
Feng Shuzhu couldn't help but smile and said, "When did Qing'er be so greedy and afraid of death, in case it is an upright restaurant, and there are many signature dishes in it." ”
As soon as he mentioned the signature dish, he was reminded of Chu Qing's food, and he also remembered Feng Shuzhu's promise to himself in the chair mountain, so he immediately whispered: "Is this, what you said is very reasonable, and it is not impossible, it is indeed difficult for the black shop to have such momentum, I think, let's go forward and find out, so as not to be late for the signature dish."
Someone lit it up. ”
While talking, the two walked slowly closer, and came to the front door of the restaurant, and they all raised their eyes to see that on the vermilion paint plaque with a length of feet, the three big characters of "not the second floor" were written with gilt paint, and the ink was very full, and it was from the hands of famous artists at a glance.
The two of them looked up and down, and saw that the building was four floors high, and the span was ten. Except for the huge doorposts carved out of stone, the entire building is a wooden structure, and the two ends of the wooden building are upturned from the base, and the shape is very strange, like open wings.
When the two of them were still deeply shocked by the momentum of the wooden building, they saw the guy pick up the curtain and walked out, came to the outside of the building with a smiling face, threw the towel on his shoulder, and arched his hand: "Two distinguished guests, it seems that you are here for the first time, I don't know whether to eat or stay in the hotel." ”
Chu Qing glanced at the guy, thinking in his heart that this service attitude was so polite, it shouldn't be a black shop, so he shouted: "Two rooms in the upper room!" As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers and shook them in front of the guy.
But seeing that the guy coughed lightly, looked at Chu Qing, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Guest officer, it's really unfortunate, there is no room left." ”
Chu Qing thought that the guy had an eye disease at first, so it was so weird, and after listening to him, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "What about the middle room?"
The guy looked at Chu Qing again, his eyes rolled up, and his nostrils turned to the sky and said, "It's gone!"
When Chu Qing heard this, this was obviously deliberately difficult, and he was about to question, but he saw Feng Shuzhu take out two taels of silver from his cuffs, stuffed it to the guy, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of the little second brother, go to the room for two." ”
When the guy heard the sound, his eyes were shocked, and after seeing it clearly, he reached out and hurriedly took the silver tael, stuffed it into his arms, and immediately changed his face to a smile and said: "It's still this son who is reasonable, but it's not a secret, there is indeed only one room left in the upper room." While talking, he also learned to be Chu Qing, stretched out a finger, and shook it.
When Chu Qing heard this, he said angrily: "You said no just now!"
The guy rolled his eyes and quibbled: "You also said, I said just now, someone has checked out now, can't you?"
The three of them stood outside the door, and they didn't see anyone coming in or out, so how did they check out! When Chu Qing heard the other party open his eyes and talk nonsense like this, he was angry, and said angrily: "You...... Isn't it begging!" he said, waving his fist.
Seeing the situation, the guy hid back, but no longer paid attention to Chu Qing, but turned his head and pretended to be pitiful, and said to Feng Shuzhu: "Son, there is indeed only one room, not to mention the upper room, there are no other rooms, I see that you will get together for one night, maybe there will be guests leaving tomorrow." ”
Feng Shuzhu turned his head to look at Chu Qing, pondered and said, "It's all about this" After speaking, he turned his head and said: "Then the little second brother is tired to lead the way." ”
When the guy heard this, he "hummed" at Chu Qing, then raised the towel, and shouted into the building: "Go to the room, please go upstairs!" After speaking, he quickly led the way in front and led the two of them inside.
Chu Qing entered the second floor, very surprised, it turned out that the entire floor of this restaurant was a hall, with hundreds of tables and chairs, crowded at a glance, full of seats, and walked up the stairs in the middle, since the second floor, all of them were accommodation rooms
The corridor is very quiet, very different from the first floor.
The guy led the two of them up in front of him, and said: "Our shopkeeper has set up a rule, that is, you must not make noise in the accommodation room, otherwise you will be invited out of the second floor, remember, remember." ”
Feng Shuzhu said: "The room is used for rest, it is so quiet, self-interested, little second brother rest assured, we will definitely abide by the rules." ”
The guy was very happy when he heard Feng Shuzhu's answer, and led the two of them up to the top floor, opened the door of a room on the right side of the stairs and said: "Although this second floor is big, there are only three rooms on the upper floor, all of which are on this top floor, and the two of them are really lucky." ”
After entering the room, Chu Qing realized that the upper room on the second floor could not be described in just one big word, there were two bedrooms in it alone, and the large hall outside was also full of piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings, and there was actually a single room with a bath on the side of the court.
I saw that in the room, the light yarn hung on the ground, the cigarette smoke in the silver smoke was swirling, and when I opened the window, I looked at the distant mountains like daisies, and the fairy clouds were floating, which made people feel refreshed suddenly, and they didn't feel that their hearts were much broader.
After a while, a few guys wore flowers, sent a table of good banquets, and carved an altar of aged flowers.
Chu Qing took the opportunity to study the wooden basin that took a bath for a long time, and after being introduced by the guy, he learned that there was a mechanism on it, and when he pressed it, water would come out. It turns out that there is a volcanic hot spring behind the second floor, and the temperature is constant all year round, so the store is led by a bamboo tube, but only the upper room has such treatment.
Chu Qing tinkered beside the bathtub for a long time, and then the aroma of the meal came, and when she looked back, she saw that the wind and bamboo had already sat down, and there were a few good dishes on the table, such as a flame drunk goose, a white fish head, and a few good dishes such as wild bamboo shoots.
I was about to stretch out my hand to raise a glass to invite, but when I saw Feng Shuzhu's eyebrows solemn, he held his breath, looked back at the window, looked nervous, and whispered: "Slow." ”
Frightened, Chu Qing's hand immediately retracted as if it had been electrocuted, and he also became nervous, looking at Feng Shuzhu in puzzlement.
But he saw Feng Shuzhu take out a silver needle from his sleeve, probed into the two wine glasses, picked up the silver needle again, looked at it carefully, and said, "There is no poison in the wine." ”
Chu Qing had also heard the theory of silver needle testing poison early in the morning, and her face was also nervous, but as soon as she heard that it was not poisonous, she wanted to hold up her wine glass and drink, but was stopped by Feng Shuzhu, and said: "There is some poison, and the silver needle can't be tested." ”
When Chu Qing heard this, she was frightened, but then her eyes rolled, and she said: "Brother Feng treats me as a relative, and this favor cannot be repaid, Qing'er is willing to test the poison for Brother Feng." After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it all.
He made a miserable and miserable state and said: "Brother Feng, if I die of poison, you must avenge me." Tears rolled in his eyes as he spoke.
Feng Shuzhu was dumbfounded for a while, and he had to use a silver needle to test whether the dish was poisonous.
But he was stopped by Chu Qing and said, "Since the silver needle can't test the strange poison, why bother to do it many times, let Qing'er be Brother Feng's silver needle." After speaking, he reached out and picked up half a drunken goose and took a big bite of it.
A seat of words stunned Feng Shuzhu said, dropped the silver needle,
Reaching out to grab the remaining half of the drunken goose, he was stopped by Chu Qing.
Chu Qing chewed the food in her mouth, and said insincerely: "Wind ...... Big brother, it's a bit poisonous...... , it will take a while before it becomes poisonous, I think...... You'd better wait another hour while I try all these dishes. ”
Unexpectedly, Feng Shuzhu pretended not to hear what Qing said, and said: "If something happens to Qing'er, how can Brother Feng live alone, I am willing to live and die with you." ”
After speaking, the two of them didn't care about their manners, they lost their chopsticks and didn't use them, and their hands went to the table. After a while, a good banquet on the table was eaten by the two of them, and the cups and plates were messy.
The two looked at each other with a look of eating without regard for manners, but they were extremely happy, and laughed from time to time.
