Volume 1 Fetching the Sword Chapter 48 The Little Shop in the Mountain Village

Cao Cao coughed lightly, but the guys still didn't react.

Cao Cao almost suspected that he had entered the wrong place, he exited the door and re-entered, no, Cao Cao obviously found the four big words 'Welcome Restaurant' on the plaque in the lobby.

Oh, it turned out to be a 'restaurant' instead of a 'tavern', no wonder there were so many guys.

This problem is solved, but no matter how many guys there are, you always have to greet guests, don't you?

Could it be that you don't pay for food?

Thinking of the word 'money', Cao Cao remembered that the two of them really had no money, and on the way to chase the big snake, they were all lost in the underground passage of the 'Qin Palace'.

That's not right, do the guys have clairvoyance and can see the two of them penniless?

If it comes, it will be safe. If you don't have money to eat, it's always okay to borrow two bowls of white water to drink, and the main purpose is to inquire about the way up the mountain.

The two simply found a good seat and sat down with a butt. I was about to open my mouth to order, but I saw eight young women suddenly coming out of the back hall, each holding a plate of dishes and coming to Cao Cao.

The dress of these women is not like the maids of an ordinary restaurant at all, and it is extremely incongruous with such an ordinary small village in front of them.

They gently laid the dishes on the table and arranged them in order, then bowed their blessings, and then turned around one by one and went back to the back hall.

There are fish and meat, meat and vegetarian, and all of them are high-level dishes.

It's so weird, no one paid attention to it just now, and so many dishes were served at once, could it be that these were given away for free? Or did she recognize the wrong person and serve the wrong food?

Xiahoudun asked softly, but Cao Cao did not answer, because he also had no answer.

Cao Cao looked at a table of dishes, he couldn't take care of a lot, his stomach was already growling, whether it was a blessing or a curse, fill his stomach first and then pay attention to it. Since leaving Handan, I haven't eaten a decent meal, and I've been tossing and turning all the way, and I'm already hungry and thirsty at the moment, so eat.

Oh, by the way, if only there was wine.

"Man, do you have good wine, come up with two bowls?" Cao Cao simply let go.

When no one answered, the shopkeeper said, "Are you all deaf?" ”

After a while, a fellow held a clay pot and put two clay bowls on the table.

Eating and drinking, the two devoured, and soon ate all the wine and food, full of wine and food, I really didn't expect that there would be such a delicious meal in this village at the foot of the mountain, it was really rare.

The only thing that was a little unhappy was the ten expressionless guys, with strange looks in their cold eyes.

Seeing that the two of them finished eating, the shopkeeper slowly walked over, holding an abacus in his hand, and said with a smile: "A small country shop, coarse tea and light rice, I really can't take it, and I hope that the two Haihan." ”

Holding an abacus in his hand, it seems that he is going to settle the account, Cao Cao was thinking about how to pay for his meal, and hurriedly said casually: "Very good, very good." ”

"This wine is a fine wine from the Western Regions, are you two still satisfied?"

Wine originated in the Western Regions, in the third year of the founding of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian was ordered by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to send an envoy to the Western Regions, not only to complete the task brilliantly, but also to bring back the skills of making wine. Since then, the Central Plains has also produced its own wines, but it is estimated that the environment in which the grapes are grown is different, and it always cannot reach the natural taste produced in the Western Regions.

It is said that when the first emperor was there, there was a man named Meng Tuo, who bribed Zhang Rang, one of the ten permanent servants, with three buckets of wine from the Western Regions, and actually exchanged for the position of Liangzhou Thorn History. The first emperor once sold his official position on a large scale, except for the emperor's position, any official position can be discussed, and it is said that he has never done a loss-making business. Three buckets of fine wine can change the position of thorn history, which shows the preciousness of fine wine.

"Good, good. Cao Cao replied.

"Since the two of you are quite satisfied, let's talk about business, right?"

The shopkeeper really got to the point, Cao Cao understood, he ate and drank, and it was time to settle the account.

Cao Cao and Xiahoudun touched their bodies separately, and they really couldn't find any valuable top accounts.

was about to make a showdown with the shopkeeper, but when he saw the shopkeeper wave his hand, a man immediately brought a cloth bag, put it on the table and opened it, which was full of white silver.

"Time is in a hurry, and I barely managed to make up so much, please accept it. ”

What? Give us money? Cao Cao and the others couldn't believe their ears.

And so much money spent in vain, not to mention the cost of a meal, even if you eat and live for a year, you can't use so much!

Could it be that this is the local custom?

Cao Cao and Xiahoudun looked at each other head-on, and suddenly saw the shopkeeper get up, bowed respectfully to the two, and then said.

"Xue'er is the only granddaughter of the old man, what are the conditions, I hope the two envoys will put it forward, and I will do my best. “

"Xue'er?" Cao Cao and the others were really confused.

Who is Cher and what does the shopkeeper mean?

"Sect Master Zhang of your sect is also the same sect as the owner of my family, please look at the owner of the village, don't hurt Xue'er. ”

Cao Cao understood a little at this time, and dared to love the other party by mistaking himself for the envoy of Sect Leader Zhang, so he said: "My two brothers came to your land for the first time, and they don't know any Xue'er, but the shopkeeper recognized the wrong person?"

The shopkeeper's face changed, and he looked Cao Cao and the two up and down carefully.

When he was sure that he had really recognized the wrong person, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"As the big shopkeeper of Woniu Villa, the cattle shopkeeper is discerning and sharp-eyed, and he will look away when he can't think of it. Ridiculous, ridiculous. ”

As he spoke, a long-haired man limped into the door with a cane, and behind him two men were escorting a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

The man who came in had long hair that reached to his chest, almost hiding his face, with a yellow scarf on the top of his head, a light blue cloth coat on his upper body, black trousers on his lower body, the corners of his trousers were pulled up to the knees, and he wore a pair of cloth shoes on his feet.

The shopkeeper looked at this man carefully, and he seemed to be familiar, but he couldn't call his name. When he saw the girl behind him, he was a little excited, and said hurriedly: "Xue'er, are you okay?"

The girl looks like she is seventeen or eighteen years old, with a melon seed face, delicate facial features, small and exquisite, wearing a sloop, a comb grate on her head, and a pair of ordinary clothes.

Xue'er raised her head: "Xue'er is fine, grandpa doesn't have to worry." ”

Her hands were tied behind her back, her face was pale, and she was guarded by two strong men behind her.

"Your Excellency's surname, as long as you are willing to let Xue'er go, what do you want. ”

"It's really a noble person who forgets things, last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, you and I met once. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be the right elder of the Taiping God Sect 'One-Horned Immortal'. Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, you waited for the opportunity to touch the mountain, if it weren't for the owner's kindness, let you go, I'm afraid... ”

"Benevolence? Hehe, hehe, he is too stupid, how can he easily let go of the enemy? At this point, Master Zhang Zhuang is far inferior to the leader of our God Sect. ”

"Your Excellency is also famous in the rivers and lakes, what kind of hero is it to catch a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts?"

"Hero, I was originally called Hanako, and I was content if I didn't starve to death, what kind of hero is not a hero. ”

"Okay, since you have arrived at the shop, you have to enjoy the friendship of the landlord in the next, please take a seat. "The shopkeeper was about to signal his subordinates to serve the food, but was stopped by the 'unicorn fairy'.

"I'm used to eating bran and vegetables, and I can't enjoy your big fish and meat. ”

"Okay, there's a pack of silver taels here, can you exchange it for Xue'er?"

"What's the use of asking Hanako to ask for these things? It's just that I was instructed by the sect leader to use this girl's life to exchange something with you. ”

"What's it? Tell me quickly, it's going to be under the head, and I'm willing to do it. ”

"The life of the cow shopkeeper is not worth much in the eyes of the sect master! As long as you draw a detailed picture of the ice pool of Woniu Mountain, I will immediately release this girl. ”

As soon as these words came out, the shopkeeper Niu was shocked, his face instantly turned pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead dripped down.

"No, no! I can promise you anything else, and I want to betray Woniu Villa, absolutely not. ”

"The Ming people don't say secret words, the sword of the Son of Heaven and the golden slip of Gaozu are hidden in the Calvary Platform of Woniu Mountain, and the Calvary Platform is hidden in the ice pool of Lava Ridge, the lava stone flows gold, and the heat is unbearable; “

Hearing these words, Cao Cao and Xiahoudun were also surprised, the Sword of the Son of Heaven was indeed on Calvary, originally only gathered the Five Elements Sword, and the Calvary Platform could be opened, but they didn't know that there were still these obstacles, Lava Ridge, Ice Water Pool, one fire and one water, one hot and one cold, with these two natural barriers, no wonder the Calvary Platform has been safe and sound for four hundred years. Cao Cao suddenly remembered the words of Zhang Zhaokai and Duan Qi, could it be that this 'Qiankun Bow' is a magic weapon to deal with this ice and fire?

The shopkeeper Niu looked up to the sky and laughed: "Your Excellency is raised below, don't say that you don't know the secret of the Lava Ridge Ice Water Pool, even if you know, it is related to the country's righteousness, and you will never betray the owner of the village." “

"The surname of the owner of your family is Zhang, and the head of my family is also surnamed Zhang, this is a family, how can they divide each other? The Han Empire can't last a few days, and the Son of Heaven has a virtuous sword, since the cow shopkeeper insists on going his own way, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Xue'er's collarbone, and with a little force, she screamed in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Despicable. The shopkeeper gritted his teeth, waved the abacus in his hand, and smashed it into the door of the unicorn fairy.

The unicorn fairy is on crutches with one hand, and the abacus with the other, he is an arm, it is simply skin and bones, and he can see the green tendons that are exposed, no wonder he was born as a beggar. But this arm has a thousand strengths, and it collided with the abacus and connected a few strokes in a row.

The abacus is the weapon of the cow shopkeeper, and in order to save his granddaughter, he repeatedly attacked and tried to suppress the other party. The unicorn fairy is not ambiguous, he limps, but his body is extremely flexible, and it can be seen that he has only used less than half of his strength.

The bull shopkeeper was far from being the opponent of the unicorn fairy, and the ten men had been on standby for a long time, and they swarmed up and surrounded the unicorn fairy.

The one-horned immortal is the right elder of the Taiping God Sect, although there is also a left elder, but the Han is respected by the right, it can be said that except for the three brothers Zhang Jiao, the status of the one-horned fairy in the Taiping God Sect is below the three people and above ten thousand people.

No wonder when Cao Cao and the two came in, there was not a single guest inside, and the shopkeeper and his companion were also a little weird, full of hostility towards the two, and it turned out that they were 'waiting' for the unicorn fairy.

But in this way, it was for nothing to let Cao Cao and the two eat and drink.

The one-horned fairy didn't take these dozen people seriously, he danced his crutches, and within a few rounds, all ten guys were lying on the ground.

The shopkeeper Niu also received a punch in the face, his right cheek was swollen, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. However, in order to save his granddaughter, he also fought, and in a hurry, he resorted to the desperate move 'Flying Rain', the abacus broke, and the abacus turned into a chain of marbles, like a drizzle of rain, all of which flew to the unicorn fairy.

"What a handsome approach. The unicorn fairy didn't dare to be careless, the crutch was used as a shield, and there was a clanging sound, even dodging and dialing, avoiding most of the abacus, but one still hit the waist and was deeply embedded in the flesh.

The unicorn fairy was furious, and the crutches were lightning fast, sweeping the knees of the cattle shopkeeper, and under the severe pain, the cow shopkeeper's knees were sore, and he knelt on the ground.

The unicorn fairy smiled, as long as he gave the other party another limp, the cow shopkeeper would definitely have his head bloom and be killed on the spot.
