Chapter Eighty-Four: Hongmen Inn (1)
......
"Slow, slow! Let me think about it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" The black-clothed bandit wiped the cold sweat on his head, turned back to his subordinates and scolded: "Don't be stupid, think about it quickly!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" the bandits immediately began to scratch their scalps and pull their beards, thinking hard.
"I remembered. The dogskin jacket patted his head, "I seem to have heard that Yan Shanhou has something to do with this matter." ”
"Yanshan Hou?" Ou Chuyang wondered, isn't there no emperor and no court in this world, why did a marquis pop up?
The leader of the black-clothed bandits replied: "Yan Shanhou's name is Hou Guanghe, and he is the chief scoop of the eighteen peaks and thirty-six villages of Yan Mountain. ”
"Does he have anything to do with this beast tide?" Ou Chuyang hurriedly asked.
"This ...... I don't know much about that......" said the dogskin jacket.
"Hmph, it's not true, don't you think I will kill people?" Ou Chuyang stared at the dogskin jacket with a sinister face.
"You idiot!" the leader of the black-clothed bandit knelt and stretched out a kick to kick down the dog leather jacket next to him, "What do you know, don't say it all quickly, you want to kill Lao Tzu!"
The dogskin jacket cried and complained, "I ...... I really don't know...... It was the last time I drank at the Hongmen Inn...... I vaguely heard a little wind......"
Ou Chuyang and Wei Dongheng glanced at each other, knowing that these lowest-level minions must know very little, and if they want to get more information, they have to go to the Hongmen Inn to inquire in person.
"I'll trust you once. But today's events, if you dare to divulge half a sentence, I will make you regret that you were born from your mother's womb!"
Although Ou Chuyang's words were full of murderous energy, in the ears of the bandits, it was more beautiful than the sound of heaven, and he hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you seniors for not killing, we swear never to leak half a word, if you violate this oath, you will not die well when the sky thunders!"
Ou Chuyang would not believe that "it is not good to die if the sky thunders and thunders", but he believes that these robbers do not dare to leak the news, they confessed to Yan Shanhou, if it is leaked, it will be looking for their own death.
"Actually, I like robbery, but unfortunately I haven't been available, and I happened to meet you today, which really makes me very happy. Ou Chuyang said with a kind smile: "Hand over your crystals and valuable things!"
......
Hongmen Inn is named because it is located in Hongmen Gorge, and Hongmen Gorge has nothing to do with the dispute between Chu and Han in Chinese history. Hongmen Gorge is located in the middle of the Yanshan Mountain Range, and the Huiyan Peak in the west has a meaning, that is, the Hongyan will turn back when it flies here, and it can not fly north again.
Hongmen Gorge is more than ten miles long, the terrain in the canyon is wide and flat, it is the most important passage between Yanzhong and Yanbei, and people and vehicles come and go very lively. Hongmen Inn is located on a small hill ten miles north of Hongmen Gorge, and its business is booming and famous. Because after here, further north, there are no inns where you can stay.
After flying for a day and a night, Ou Chuyang and Wei Dongheng came to the Hongmen Inn.
This Hongmen Inn is definitely the largest inn Ou Chuyang has ever seen, and the first thing he saw when he walked up the hill was a long string of red lanterns on the high flagpole. Under the flagpole is a circle of wooden fences, in the middle of the courtyard gate of three zhang wide, there is a plaque hanging on the door, on the book "Hongmen Inn" four vigorous big characters.
Behind the courtyard gate, there is a three-story main hall. On the left is a spacious stable with one hundred and eighty good horses in it. A row of cooking smoke rises from the roof on the right, which is supposed to be the kitchen and storage room. The rooms are all in the quiet backyard behind the main hall.
Ou Chuyang followed Wei Dongheng into the main hall, where there were more than a dozen large round tables, and hundreds of diners were eating and drinking, which was very noisy.
"Shopkeeper, we want two upper rooms. Ou Chuyang shouted loudly.
"Two guest officers, I'm really embarrassed, there is only one room left in the upper room. The shopkeeper, who is over half a hundred years old, said with a smile.
Ou Chuyang said: "Then give us an upper room and an ordinary room." ”
"The normal room was already full. The shopkeeper was embarrassed and said: "I heard that there is a secret treasure born in Yanbei, and more and more people have rushed to Yanbei through Hongmen Gorge these days. ”
"Secret Treasure...... What kind of secret treasure?" Ou Chuyang's eyes lit up, it seems that this Hongmen Inn is the right place, this is definitely a distribution center for all kinds of news.
The shopkeeper replied: "I don't know the specifics, after the guest officer settles down, you can inquire more." ”
"Then let's open an upper room first. Ou Chuyang thought about letting Wei Dongheng live in the upper room, just find a place to deal with it, and when he went out, he didn't pay so much attention to it.
"Wait!" At this time, a man in a strong suit walked in from outside the door, "I want this upper room." ”
Ou Chuyang said with an unhappy face: "Your Excellency, don't you know that you will come first and then come?"
"Your Excellency, haven't you heard of the Wind and Rain Building?" the man in the strong suit smiled proudly, took out a waist card and threw it on the counter.
The shopkeeper picked up the token and saw that the black carved waist card was engraved with a blood-red wind character on the front and a silver-white rain character on the back. The shopkeeper walked out of the counter quickly, bent down respectfully and said: "It turned out that the distinguished guests of the Fengyu Building were coming, and the villain was disrespectful, disrespectful, and disrespectful, please inside." ”
The shopkeeper personally led the way, led the big man in the strong suit to the backyard, and left Ou Chuyang and the others aside. At this time, the noise in the lobby seems to be much quieter.
Ou Chuyang was about to have a seizure, but Wei Dongheng grabbed him and shook his head. This made Ou Chuyang very surprised, the power of the dignified heavenly level, should he be so forbearing? What is the origin of this wind and rain building......
"Brother Mei and I hit it off at first sight, wouldn't it be nice to drink him here for three days and three nights today?" Wei Dongheng laughed, and then whispered: "It's good to find out the news in this lobby, and you don't have to stay in the hotel." ”
Ou Chuyang comprehended, and laughed three times, "Little brother can't ask for it, Brother Wei, please!"
......
"Eight horses!"
"Six-six-six!"
"Hello brothers!"
"Five Leaders!"
Most of the people who came to Yanbei, a bitter cold place to survive and seek wealth, were rough and brave. Therefore, the lobby of this inn is filled with the strong smell of wine and the pungent smell of sweat, full of wine orders and heroic laughter, which is much more lively than the vegetable market.
It's not entirely true, but it's at least half true. That is, a few cups of yellow soup in the stomach, and the words became more. Even if you are a silent person on weekdays, if you drink too much, it will turn into chatter, not to mention a group of high-rollers who go from south to north. So as soon as Ou Chuyang and Wei Dongheng sat down, they heard a discussion around them:
"I heard that the earthquake in Yanxi caused the earth to crack and reveal a canyon, and the sun was shining brightly, as if there were rare treasures about to be born, is this true?"
"How did I hear that half of the mountain had collapsed, revealing a cave in the mountain, and the light inside seemed to be a treasure about to be born. Which news is true?"
"It doesn't matter which one of them is true or which is false, in short, it is said that in the Yanxi area, they are all rare treasures that are about to be born, don't you know if you go and take a look?"
Ou Chuyang remembered that the island where the two sects of Qianyuan, Kunyu and his beloved senior sister were buried, wasn't it also caused by the earthquake in the first place? Could it be that another Sword God Secret Treasure was about to be born?
