Chapter 21: Aoba Town
The white clouds on the horizon are long, the birds are flying in the sky, under the blue sky, the green grass is green, the green water is long, and the vast and boundless plain flashes from time to time a black figure, all of which are passers-by who gallop by horses.
Drive!
Yun Que tugged on the reins, and the white horse under his crotch walked like a fly, galloping straight to the south, driving gusts of wind, passing over his body, and the smell of grass came.
"Hmmmm! Yun Que, you ...... You slow down, the wind ...... The wind was blowing so hard that I couldn't open my eyes. ”
On the white horse, Ye Qingyi, who was sitting behind Yun Que, buried his face deep on Yun Que's back, and said vaguely.
While speaking, Ye Qingyi stretched out his hand and hugged Yun Que tighter, as if he was holding a pillow, with a comfortable look on his face.
"We have to hurry, or we won't be able to find a place to rest when it gets dark." ”
Yun Que moved his tight body that was hugged by Ye Qingyi, looked ahead, and said without looking back.
"Isn't that your hometown? ”
Ye Qingyi, who was lying on Yun Que's back, raised his head and asked with some doubts.
When Yun Que heard this, his brows furrowed, and he didn't answer, there were some things that were not a last resort, and he didn't want Ye Qingyi to know.
Although Yunxiang is his hometown, his hometown is not Yunxiang.
Ye Qingyi saw that Yun Que didn't speak, and knew that he must have a reason for what he said, so he didn't open his mouth to ask anymore.
The sun rose in the east and set in the west, and at dusk, Yun Que and Ye Qingyi finally came to Yunxiang.
In Qingye Town, in front of an inn, Yun Que tightened the reins, stopped the white horse, and stretched out his hand to wake up Ye Qingyi, who was asleep on his back.
"Hmm, have you arrived?"
Ye Qingyi felt that someone was shaking her body, opened her eyes in a daze, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, which were still a little heavy, and tilted her head to look at the inn in front of her.
"It's here, come down!"
Yun Que took the lead in turning over and dismounting, and then reached out to help Ye Qingyi, who was still a little confused, off the horse.
"Guest officer, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
As soon as Yun Que helped Ye Qingyi get off the horse, a man who looked like a guy immediately walked over and asked respectfully.
"Stay. ”
Yun Que said that he handed over the horse to the man and let him feed it well.
"Okay! The shopkeeper has two people in the hotel. ”
The man took the reins, shouted at the shop, and then pulled the white horse to settle down.
"Thank you for your attention, how many rooms do you have?"
The shopkeeper-looking person standing at the counter saw Yun Que and the others walking in, and asked with a smile on his face.
"Two rooms. ”
"A room. ”
Yun Que and Ye Qingyi heard the shopkeeper's question, and immediately spoke together, but the answers of the two were a little different.
"One will do. ”
Ye Qingyi glanced at Yun Que, made a look, and then looked at the shopkeeper and said.
"Okay! a room, upstairs turn left and the third one, this is the key you can take." ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Yun Que when he heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and then he took out the door key from the drawer and handed it to Yun Que.
"Thank you. ”
Yun Que stretched out his hand to take the key and thanked the shopkeeper.
"You don't have to thank me, even if you want to live in two rooms, I don't have two rooms in this store. ”
The shopkeeper said and stretched out his hand to point to the lobby and spoke.
In the past two days, because of the Yanyun Gang, more and more people have come to this Qingye Town, and more and more people have come to stay in his inn, so that he even rented out the firewood room.
The shopkeeper pointed to the lobby, and Yun Que found that the first floor of the inn was already full of people, all kinds of people, as if there was going to be some grand event here, and these people had come to join in the fun.
"Shopkeeper, do you usually have so many people?"
Yun Que glanced at the crowd that filled the first floor, turned his head to look at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Childe, you are lifting the small shop, where is there so many people in the small shop! It's not because the Yanyun Gang in Broken Leaf City and the major gangs are going to hold a martial arts tournament and elect the leader of the Southwest Alliance, so there are so many people coming to our town. ”
Hearing Yun Que say this, the shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand and opened his mouth to explain to Yun Que.
Speaking of which, his small shop can be regarded as stained with the light of the martial arts conference, otherwise where would there be so many people to stay in the hotel, usually three or two a day is good, which is like living in one after another in the past two days, as if rushing to reincarnate.
"What's the matter? Aren't you two here for this martial arts tournament?"
When the shopkeeper said this, he looked at Yun Que and the others with some doubts, he thought that Yun Que and they were dressed as martial artists, and they were also here to participate in this martial arts competition.
"No, we were passing through here to visit relatives in Shattered Leaf City. ”
Yun Que shook his head and said frankly, this is the first time he has heard of this martial arts competition.
"It's okay if it's not, if you want me to say it! They are just fooling around, asking for trouble, the court has explicitly forbidden the practice of martial arts, they don't listen to it, and they still make such a big fanfare, sooner or later it will provoke the suppression of the court. ”
The shopkeeper heard Yun Que say that he didn't come to participate in this martial arts competition, but he also found a person to complain about, and commented on this incident a lot.
The first time Yun Que heard about the martial arts competition, he was bowing his head and pondering, and he didn't listen to the shopkeeper's opinion on the martial arts conference.
The shopkeeper saw Yun Que with a contemplative look, thinking that Yun Que didn't like to listen to these things, so he also closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Ye Qingyi, who was on the side, saw the shopkeeper standing there with an embarrassed face, and couldn't help but reach out and pull Yun Que, who was contemplating.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm thinking about things, it's rude, and I hope the shopkeeper will bear with me. ”
Yun Que was pulled by Ye Qingyi and immediately reacted, raised his head and smiled apologetically at the shopkeeper, and bowed his hand to apologize.
"It's okay, I'm also old, so I'm going to talk about some irrelevant things, but that's all here, I also remind you, now because of the martial arts competition, all kinds of people have come here, and Broken Leaf City as the venue is even more mixed, good and bad, you two still have to be careful!"
The shopkeeper saw that Yun Que and the two of them were both young in their early twenties, and they also told each other well.
"Thanks to the shopkeeper for the reminder, we know. ”
Yun Que heard the words and saw that although the shopkeeper talked a little too much, his heart was not bad, and he also thanked the shopkeeper with a fist.
"You're welcome, as long as you don't think I'm verbose, well, it's getting late, you can go and rest! ”
The shopkeeper Chong Yunque and the two waved their hands, preparing to receive another guest who was walking into the inn.
"Let's go!"
Yun Que glanced at Ye Qingyi, took the key and walked upstairs, Ye Qingyi, who was standing next to him, nodded, and also followed.
With the key, Yun Que came to the third room on the left side of the second floor, opened the door, and walked in first, followed by Ye Qingyi.
Walking into the room, Yun Que looked around, it was no different from the usual room, a bed, a table and three small stools, the bed was placed against the wall inside, a round table was facing the door, three wooden stools were neatly placed on the side of the table, the whole room was clean and neat, even if people with cleanliness habits saw it, there would be no dissatisfaction.
"Well, I can't see that the shopkeeper is quite caring, and the room is so neatly arranged that people can't find fault with it. ”
Ye Qingyi looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and then threw himself on the bed, and said vaguely: "Hmm! I want to sleep in the bed at night." ”
"I knew it. ”
Seeing Ye Qingyi's appearance like this, Yun Que also shook his head unexpectedly, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Although he knew that the result would be like this, Yun Que still had a bit of luck, thinking that Ye Qingyi wanted a room to sleep in the same bed with him.
"Why? You don't want to, if you don't want then I'll sleep on the floor. ”
Ye Qingyi turned over, sat up all of a sudden, looked at Yun Que and asked.
"Of course I do, I can't sleep in a soft bed anyway, so just make a bunk here. ”
Yun Que waved his hand when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground, and spoke.
"I'm going to sleep, you go outside and order something to eat. ”
Ye Qingyi looked at Yun Quejiao and snorted, then raised his hand and pointed to the door and said.
"Good. ”
Yun Que nodded, and walked out, just as he was about to ask the shopkeeper for a pair of quilts.
When Yun Que walked into the house with the food, Ye Qingyi had already fallen asleep under the quilt, with a thick cotton wool quilt wrapped around his body, a few strands of hair scattered on the pillow, and a happy smile on his face.
"Well, I can't help you. ”
When Yun Que saw this scene, he sighed, put the food on the table, and then went to get the quilt, spread it on the ground, took off his clothes, lay down on his back, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Ye Qingyi, who woke up in a daze, turned to look at Yun Que who was sleeping on the ground, and looked a little distressed when he saw Yun Que wrapping the quilt tightly, in early autumn, the night was already a little cold.
"Yun Quan, if it's cold, come up and sleep, but you have to wear clothes. ”
Ye Qingyi lifted a small opening of the quilt, looked at Yun Que lying on the ground, and said a little shyly.
"Okay!"
As soon as Ye Qingyi's words fell, Yun Que stood up with a carp, as if he had been waiting for Ye Qingyi's words, only to see that his clothes had already been neatly worn on his body at some point.
Yun Que turned around and smiled at Ye Qingyi, pounced all of a sudden, got into the quilt, hugged Ye Qingyi and didn't speak.
Ye Qingyi felt the heat coming from Yun Que's body, and couldn't help blushing, she reached out and wanted to pull Yun Que's hand away, but Yun Que seemed to be asleep, and couldn't pull it at all, in desperation, Ye Qingyi could only shrink her body, tilting her head and not daring to look at Yun Que's appearance at this time.
"Sleep. ”
After a long time, Ye Qingyi, who was nervous and had not yet fallen asleep, heard Yun Que's murmur, couldn't help but relax, slowly closed his eyes, tilted his head and fell asleep.
