Chapter 228: The Coachman

Xiyuan Town

The sun had faded a little, the clouds had drifted by, and the light in the restaurant had dimmed.

The groom who was drinking at the two tables was eating heartily, burping constantly, mixed with the smell of sweat on his body and spreading everywhere, causing Qingyun to make a small face in disgust, but it was limited to a straight face, he didn't say anything, and quietly took a sip of water from the water bowl with the porcelain side off.

Qingyun an eight-year-old child did this, but it made the men at the two tables more and more interested, one of them kept burping, "Yo! this is still a child, and he is serious, come, come here, let me pinch my face...... "After speaking, he burped again, and the wine was smoking.

If it was an ordinary child, he would have been at a loss to hide behind the adults by these words of the big man, and Qingyun was still sitting steadily, constantly lucking, Lu Shiqing was amused by Qingyun's strange little expression, and pulled up the tune, "If you are angry, scold back, you don't have to swallow your anger too much outside." ”

"Uncle Shi!" Xu Zining looked at Lu Shiqing in confusion and said softly, "We are secretly investigating, and we should not provoke these troubles." ”

"The secret investigation also needs to find out the news. Lu Shiqing looked at Xu Zining carefully, "Don't be too rigid in doing things, some news is often heard from these troubles." ”

At this time, Lu Shiqing's table of food came up, five bowls of rice, four dishes of side dishes, and a pot of hot water. ”

Several people moved their chopsticks, and the big man who had just spoken opened his hazy drunken eyes and smiled low at Qingyun, "Child, can you eat it yourself?" Come over and let the uncle feed you. ”

When the words landed, there was another burst of laughter......

Xu Zining's brows tightened, you pinched the tea bowl and wanted to throw it over, but Lu Shiqing grabbed his wrist, Lu Shiqing pointed at Qingyun, "I believe in Qingyun, he can solve it himself." ”

Qingyun put down his chopsticks and wiped the corners of his mouth, "A few grandfathers drank too much, I don't bother to worry about you, you still drink less bars, maybe you can remember the way home." ”

Xu Zining looked at Qingyun with good eyes, surprised that Qingyun would say this with a straight face, Xu Weixiang almost squirted out the food in his mouth, Shixi was only familiar with Lu Shiqing, so he had been eating silently and did not make any remarks.

"Hey!" the big man rolled up his sleeves and got up, his face was red, his eyes were as big as copper bells, "Besides, if you don't like it, be careful uncle, I won't find your way home." ”

Lu Shiqing flicked his thumb, and a bamboo chopstick in his hand flew out and plunged straight into the wooden table in front of the big man, the speed was so fast, as if it grew out of the table, the big man suddenly unloaded a little force, and his tone was soft and hard, "I'm still a practitioner! Do you want to go out and have a fight with the master alone? !

"We're not bad for these copper plates. No matter how deserted this place is, after all, it is also a small town near the feet of the Son of Heaven, so a few people should pay attention to what they say, and be careful of getting into trouble. Lu Shi said quietly.

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven?" When the big man heard these words, as if arousing the resentment in his heart, he immediately widened his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "I'm hey! his grandfather's! This place is about to become the world of the Lingye Palace!"

"Lingye Palace?" Lu Shiqing and his entourage looked awe-inspiring, stepping on the iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, it took no effort to get them, Xu Zining only then understood why Lu Shiqing said that the news sometimes came from trouble.

Just as he was thinking about how to continue asking, Qingyun's black grape-like eyes flashed and looked innocent, "Hmm... What kind of palace is the Midnight Palace? Is it fun, and what is it like the palace of the Son of Heaven?"

Xu Weixiang listened in surprise, Qing Yun has been in the sect for a long time, and he should have heard about the affairs of Ling Ye Palace, and now he asked like this? Xu Weixiang shook his head, secretly regretting that he didn't cover Qing Yun's mouth just now,

After Xu Zining was puzzled, he was calm, and sighed in his heart that it was really right to come out with Qingyun this time, and some of them were inconvenient to ask directly, Qingyun could ask, and it would not arouse suspicion.

The big man became more and more interested in Qingyun, "Little fart boy, I just saw that you were serious, and now the treasure is exposed in its original form, is it fun? I'm afraid that before you can go in, you will be a corpse, haha!"

The older man sitting on the side waved his thick palm and slapped the table, and the dishes, chopsticks and plates on the table also shook, "Ma San'er, why are you talking so much today?!"

This person's voice was like a bell, and the man's voice dropped a little, and he smirked, "I just said a few more words just because I saw that this kid was fun." Big brother is not surprised. ”

The man at the other table also quieted down, despite the developments.

It turned out that the man who had been using Qingyun to find happiness just now was called Ma San, and the name that reprimanded him was Wu Yi, Ma San was an authentic coachman, who had been working in several towns and towns around Wei'an City to earn a few copper plates and eat a few foods. Who knew that it would make the two black-hearted men embarrassed, collect tolls, and if they don't give it, they will be beaten, and they haven't earned a copper plate yet.

Although Ma San is tall and big, but his strength is not worthy of his size, he only has to pay the toll or be beaten every day, until he meets Wu Yi, Wu Yi is not used to the dog fighting people, so he taught the two of them a hard lesson, and after the two fled in the wilderness, they did not appear in this area, and since then, Ma San has followed Wu Yi with all his heart.

Ma San closed the conversation gate awkwardly and sat back in his place, after Wu Yi reprimanded him, he drank water and wine as if nothing had happened, and squinted in Lu Shiqing's direction from time to time, "After this brother has eaten, let's leave here far away in the morning! Otherwise, it will be really as my brother said, I don't know how he died." ”

Lu Shiqing stared at Wu Yi carefully, "Originally, we wanted to leave at dawn after dinner, but now that we have heard Brother Tai's words, I am interested, I wonder if Brother Tai can reveal a thing or two?"

Listening to Wu Yi's tone, it seemed that it was for their safety that he reminded them to leave quickly, but in this case, why didn't he stop Ma San when he started to make trouble just now, but only interrupted when Ma San said Lingye Palace, or perhaps, he was deliberately prompting something.

Wu Yi deliberately ignored the abacus in Lu Shiqing's heart, and chewed on the sauce beef, "Yes, another one who is not afraid of death, then tell me first, where are you going?"

Lu Shiqing smiled indifferently, "Luoxi Village." ”

Wu Yi's expression changed obviously, and then he returned to normal, "As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters come out of Diao people, that poor countryside, where birds don't, what are you going to do?" Wu Yi intended to remind that the 'Diao Min' in his mouth was likely to refer to the killer of the Lingye Palace, and it could also be the stronghold of refining poison that they were looking for.

"Now that you're out, you're going to walk around, aren't you?

Wu Yi chuckled, "We are all coachmen, and we have to walk around to earn food by pulling carriages. Wu Yi said, looking at Lu Shiqing's table with great interest, "It can be seen that you are by no means ordinary people, I am afraid that you have a great purpose in coming here." Am I right?"

When Xu Zining and Xu Weixiang heard this, their expressions were awe-inspiring, and they quietly clenched the soft sword hidden in their waists. Xu Zining frowned, "Who are you?"

Wu Yi put down the bamboo chopsticks and wiped his mouth, "We are just ordinary coachmen, and we earn a few copper plates to eat by pulling the guests passing by." As he spoke, he took out a few copper plates from his body and lined them up, "Checkout!"

"Okay!" the shopkeeper came over to collect the copper plate and left with a smile.

A few people got up and prepared to leave, and the people at the other table also seemed to have been instructed to leave, and they also left with the checkout, when Ma San passed by Lu Shiqing's table, he looked at Qingyun and smiled, "Such a cute child, be careful to let people hook your soul." With that, he sneered and left.

Lu Shiqing frowned when he heard this. For some reason, Lu Shiqing remembered the kind of poison that Luojiabao forced him to develop.

Outside the door of the restaurant, a figure quietly followed Wu Yi, Ma San and others.
