A group of six people, plus a little chubby bear bag and an orange cat girl, walked along the hillside to the forest below. The further down they went, the more they noticed that the trees were thinning, and the branches were also sparse, and many of the trees had lost their leaves, leaving dry branches to support.

A winding path, like a narrow ribbon of clothes fluttering, loomed behind the forest.

It was silent, and there was no sound except for the footsteps of the pedestrians as they walked.

Everything seems to have fallen silent in the middle of autumn, withering, lonely, withering, and it makes people feel that the air around them is also thin, as if it is difficult to breathe.

Suddenly, Yi Dingjia broke the silence, only to see him take a hard breath, then raised his hand and pointed forward, and said in a loud voice: "That path was a special road for transporting stones opened up in the past to build a palace for the emperor Lao'er, but after the palace was built, it was abandoned. After speaking, he sighed with a sigh: "It's really a waste of money, it's really a waste of money, it's really a waste of money, I spent so much money in vain." As he spoke, a gleam flashed in his eyes, as if a mountain of silver and gold were laid out before his eyes.

Feng Shuzhu couldn't help but smile a little dumbly when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

The two took a few more steps forward, looked up, and found that Shui Lingyue, Chu Qing and the others who were walking in front stopped for some reason, stood not far in front of them, and stopped to look behind the forest, as if they had found something unusual.

Feng Shuzhu was suspicious, and he didn't care about Yi Dingjia, so he hurried over, and when he came to everyone, he also looked forward. I saw two small tiled houses in the sparse forest, green tiles, dark gray house walls, rosewood doors and windows, a small curtain hung on the door, and a small triangular flag was held high on the eaves of the south, with the word "wine" written on it, dancing in the wind, looking like a small wine shop. Compared with the other three sides, the front of the store is very open, and there is actually a small road paved with gravel that is several feet long and three feet wide.

Everyone watched quietly for a while, and found that there were no parked carriages and horses outside the door, and no customers entering or leaving, as if there was no life in the store.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Yi Dingjia chased after him breathlessly, stepped forward, followed everyone's gaze, immediately stepped forward, and doubted: "Who would open a wine shop here?

Feng Shuzhu stood aside, quietly stared at the small shop for a moment, then turned his head and said, "A few of you are waiting here for the time being, I'll go over and investigate." ”

Without waiting for others to answer, Chu Qing turned his head to look at Feng Shuzhu and said, "Brother Feng, I will also go with you." ”

Feng Shuzhu smiled and said, "Qing'er doesn't have to worry so much, when your big brother Feng is so weak that he can't do this little thing, he still needs someone to accompany him." ”

When Chu Qing heard this, he knew that it would not be good to argue with Feng Shuzhu in front of everyone, so he turned his gaze to the small shop in front of him again, and looked at it carefully without blinking, as if he wanted to see it through.

At this time, I saw Xiao Jiu come forward again, approached Feng Shuzhu and whispered, "Brother Feng, why don't you let me go." ”

Feng Shuzhu patted Xiao Jiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Take care of everyone for me here." After speaking, the figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of the store.

Everyone saw very clearly on the hillside, Feng Shuzhu stood on the path in front of the store, looked left and right, and then walked forward slowly, slowly came to the door of the store, and looked inside for a while, as if no one came out, and looked back at the hillside, then turned his head, stretched out his hand and picked up the small curtain hanging on the door of the store and walked in.

The figure of Feng Shuzhu disappeared at the door of the store, and the people standing on the hillside probably waited for a cup of tea, but they didn't see it come out or hear any movement.

Chu Qing's heart couldn't help but get nervous, she lowered her head and pondered for a moment, bit her lower lip lightly, her eyebrows were crossed, and she no longer cared about the people around her, but rose in the sky, and her figure flew over the trees in the forest in a trance, and gently landed on the roof of the small shop, squatting down on one knee, and reaching out to uncover the roof tiles.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, Granny Duan just turned her gaze to Shui Lingyue, and before she could say anything, she saw that she also flew out with the sword almost at the same time as Chu Qing, but it was just a figure that flickered and landed behind the shop.

In this way, Granny Duan and Xiao Jiu naturally needless to say, they quickly chased after them as soon as their bodies moved, but they landed on the left and right sides of the shop respectively.

In this way, several people formed an encirclement of the small wine shop in an instant.

Seeing this, it was the little chubby bear bag and the orange cat girl, who also ran wildly all the way and rushed down the hillside. In a panic along the way, the little chubby bear bag actually tripped over the roots of the tree, turned over a few times in succession, and made him covered in dirt, but he didn't care about everything, and climbed up again and continued to catch up.

Yi Dingjia fell last, and when he came back to his senses, he raised his eyes, patted his thigh, and exclaimed: "Oh, you guys are in this position, don't you want to scare the people in the store to death!" After speaking, he shook his head, and trotted all the way up with a bamboo pole in his hand.

At this moment, Chu Qing, who was the first to chase over, squatted on the roof, gently lifted a piece of tile, turned sideways, and looked inside. I saw that below is the main room with two open rooms, there are several tables and chairs in it, there is no customer empty, and there is a small painted cabinet facing the door of the store, but I have not seen the shopkeeper, nor have I seen a man, but the store is very clean and tidy. Feng Shuzhu took a chair and was sitting at a table in the hall, drinking tea leisurely in front of the store.

Shui Lingyue stood at the back of the house, and could see the situation in the store clearly through the window, her face naturally relaxed, no longer nervous, and slowly walked towards the gable on the left side with her sword. Bypassing the corner, she was meeting Granny Duan, as soon as the two made eye contact, Shui Lingyue nodded slightly, and walked towards the front of the store at the same time.

Chu Qing couldn't help but feel a little angry when she saw it, she was really nervous for no reason, so she flew out of the room, but ran into Xiao Jiu who had just arrived in front of the store, and the two of them entered the store at the same time.

As soon as Chu Qing stepped into the door of the store, he said loudly: "Brother Feng, since there is no one here, why don't you come out and tell us, it will make everyone worried." ”

Feng Shuzhu raised his eyes when he heard the sound, but saw that Shui Lingyue and Granny Duan were also walking in behind Chu Qing, so he got up with a smile and said, "It's hard all the way, just kidding with everyone, don't mind Qing'er." ”

Chu Qing pouted, glanced at Feng Shuzhu, "hummed", walked to the side, found a teapot and poured a bowl of tea, and brought it to his mouth and drank it.

After Shui Lingyue and Granny Duan entered the store, they didn't speak, as if nothing had happened, the expression on their faces couldn't be more natural, they just chose a table near the store window and sat down quietly.

Xiao Jiu glanced at Chu Qing, who was sulking on the side, then looked at Feng Shuzhu, and said in a low voice: "Brother Feng, I'll go around and take a closer look." Seeing Feng Shuzhu nodded, he turned around and picked up the curtain and was about to go out, but he almost collided with Yi Dingjia, who entered the store head-on, and lost his flexibility under his feet, and hurriedly got out of the way with one side.

Yi Dingjia didn't let go, and while walking towards the store, he reprimanded: "Young students, do things in a panic." ”

Xiao Jiu didn't argue, but glanced back at Chu Qing, his face turned red like a child who had done something wrong, turned his head and hurriedly walked out.

After Yi Dingjia entered the store, he put down the bamboo pole casually, squinted his eyes, looked up and down, and nodded: "This store is good." ”

When Feng Shuzhu heard this, he greeted him with a smile on his face, and said, "How do seniors know that this store is good, could it be that they have been here before?"

Yi Dingjia shook his head and said: "In such a deserted place, the store owner must be a careful person who can still clean the façade so spotlessly." ”

Feng Shuzhu nodded and said, "It's just that I didn't see the shopkeeper." ”

Yi Dingjia walked a few more steps in the store, and pretended to be deep: "Then, let's sit here and wait." If the shopkeeper does not show up, we must not move to avoid losing our identity. ”

Hearing this, Chu Qing, who was sitting on the side drinking tea, glanced at Yi Dingjia, and pretended to say loudly: "Brother Feng, have you finished drinking tea?"

Without waiting for Feng Shuzhu to answer, Yi Dingjia turned around when he heard this, touched the teapot beside Chu Qing with his hand, and said, "Although these other things are not allowed privately, only the tea in this wine shop, guests can do it themselves." Saying that, he actually walked over, asked Chu Qing for a bowl of tea, and slowly picked up the tea bowl, shook it in front of his eyes, and then sent it to his mouth to drink a small sip, so he tasted it and said: "Although this tea is not good, this mountain spring water is very superb, sweet and cool." ”

After hearing what Yi Dingjia said, Chu Qing rolled his eyes and ignored it, but picked up the teapot and walked around, pouring a bowl of tea for Feng Shuzhu, Shui Lingyue and Duan's mother-in-law. When he turned around and came back, he was about to sit down, but he saw the little chubby bear bag with a gray face leading the orange cat girl over, raising his front paws to beg for tea, and he couldn't bear to make people laugh, so he also poured two bowls of tea for them and put them on the ground.

Chu Qing put down the teapot and saw Feng Shuzhu sitting beside him, thought for a while, and said, "Brother Feng, I don't know what kind of person this shopkeeper is? ”

Feng Shuzhu thought for a moment and said, "In this way, this shopkeeper must be an open-minded person. ”

Chu Qing was about to nod, but Yi Dingjia on the side took over and said, "The old man thinks that this shopkeeper is still a careful person. As for the unlocked door, it may be to facilitate the travel of passers-by, so as not to miss business in his absence. ”

Chu Qing thought for a moment and said, "According to what you said, if the guests come in and eat and drink, they can't wait for the shopkeeper to come, and they leave in advance, and they don't keep a single copper coin, won't the shopkeeper lose money?" I think he is still an open-minded person, Brother Feng guessed right." ”
