Chapter 15: Tea
Seeing the shopkeeper's smile, Qin Ling knew that he might not believe what he said, but also, no matter how he looked at it, his face was pale, and his chest clothes were bloodstained, so he didn't look like Qin Ling was unhindered.
Qin Ling got down from the earthen kang and arched his hand towards the shopkeeper in front of him.
"Little brother stone, I'll talk about it another day......" Qin Ling grabbed the door and walked out, a few bounces, and the figure disappeared into the alley.
"Hey, Brother Qin!" The shopkeeper paused, and when he chased to the door, Qin Ling was gone.
"Is Big Brother gone?"
A crisp and immature voice came from inside the adobe house, and the shopkeeper didn't reply, muttering to himself.
"Well, it's gone. ”
......
......
Bora Inn......
Early in the morning, because the inn does not have a shop second, so only in person, it opened in the morning, last night because of waiting for the guest officer who had paid the money, and there was no one until the full three watches, and it was estimated that it would not come tonight, so it closed the store, and in the morning because some guest officers may leave early, he could not open late.
As soon as he opened the door of the inn, he lay down on the counter and took a nap.
"Smack, smack, smack,"
Qin Ling knocked on the counter, but ...... Didn't wake up.
"Shopkeeper's. Qin Ling had no choice but to scream,
"Hey...... Ah......h
The shopkeeper finally heard this, raised his head, and rubbed his sleepy little eyes.
"Scared!"
"You...... You ......"
Qin Ling pressed the shopkeeper's finger pointing at him with a headache.
"I was the one who stayed yesterday,"
"Your chest ......"
"No problem!"
"E......" Seeing that I didn't want to say more, the shopkeeper didn't dare to ask again.
Interrupting the shopkeeper, he had just met a lot of early risers on the road, and he wanted to change this outfit now, it was too eye-catching, although it didn't have much impact on him.
"Guest, this is the ......"
Zhou Baolai pushed open a guest room on the second floor and said, there is no sign on the door, it should be that there are not many rooms in the inn, so there is no preparation.
"Okay, thank you. ”
"Please stay!"
Just as the shopkeeper was about to leave, Qin Ling called out to stop him, "I wonder if the shopkeeper can go to the tailor shop for me." ”
Zhou Baolai knew Qin Ling's intentions with a blink of an eye, and probably knew that Qin Ling's appearance was very eye-catching.
"Yes, but if the tailor shop doesn't have ready-to-wear, it may take some time, but I don't know if the customer is in a hurry. ”
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to leave for the time being, I'm in trouble with the shopkeeper. ”
After speaking, Qin Ling took out two taels of silver from his arms and handed them to the shopkeeper, and the middle-aged man took the silver taels with a smile.
"Put the clothes there first, don't bother me these days in the hotel......"
"By the way, if the money is not enough, I will come out and make up for it. ”
"No, no, no, enough is enough, enough for you to live for more than half a month."
The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand, he remembered that the guest officer had paid three taels of silver twice, how could it be not enough.
"Just do it this way. ”
Qin Ling took off the clothes covered outside, handed them to the shopkeeper, walked into the door, and bolted the doorbolt.
Continue to meditate.
......
......
Seven days are fleeting.
In fact, it doesn't take so much time to meditate to recover the internal force, because of the pain in the meridians on the first night, I didn't dare to run the internal force too fiercely, so I only recovered two times, after seven days of meditation, the internal force has been fully recovered, and the injuries on the body are also recuperated, only the arm still has some pain when running the internal force, it should be because the internal force was too strong last time, what surprised Qin Ling was that the sword qi that had just broken through to the eighth layer had not been a few days old, and it seemed to have improved a little more.
My stomach is empty, and it's time to continue meditating, so it's time to find something to eat.
When I opened the door, it was almost noon.
Downstairs, the shopkeeper was talking and laughing with a middle-aged man, he should have heard a sound, looked at the stairs, it was the generous guest officer he had been paying attention to in the past few days, the clothes had been picked up by the tailor shop four days ago, and he didn't come out for several days, although he knew that this guest officer was from the rivers and lakes, but he was also worried that something would happen to the guest in the store, but Qin Ling beckoned him not to disturb, he didn't want to knock on the door abruptly, he was just opening the door to do business, and Zhou Baolai wouldn't do this kind of thing if he offended people.
"Guest officer, you can be satisfied with the stay. ”
Zhou Baolai's eyes were already small, but when he greeted him with a smile, it became a slit.
"It's not bad, by the way, does the shopkeeper have water?"
"I don't have food, but I still have water...... Huh"
I don't know what I thought, the shopkeeper's smile froze for a moment, and then he replied, and then turned around and picked up a small porcelain pot from the counter beside him, and poured it with a delicate and beautiful ceramic cup.
The tea leaves are fragrant and the water mist is steaming.
Although it was close to noon, it was still a little cold in winter, and it could be seen from the tea poured by the shopkeeper.
Qin Ling's face was full of black lines, he wanted to scrub his body with water, there were a lot of stains on his body, he was in a hurry to heal a few days ago, and he didn't have time to pay attention to it, but now it is uncomfortable.
Qin Ling smiled,
"I mean Shimizu, I want to scrub my body. After speaking, Qin Ling pointed to the blood stains on his chest that had turned brown.
"Haha, the little brother is also a wonderful person......"
The middle-aged man standing on the side laughed and couldn't help but interject.
"Guest, please wait. ”
Knowing that Qin Ling's meaning was misinterpreted, the shopkeeper's face turned red, but he was not annoyed and went to the backyard.
"Little brother, this is a good tea, don't you want to drink a cup?"
The middle-aged man on the side said to Qin Ling with a smile.
"Why don't you drink it, it's delivered to the door, haha. ”
Qin Ling picked up the teacup, there were not many tea leaves in the teacup, the tea was pale green, with a good fragrance, and the porcelain cup was dark purple-red, with a warm color, and it was obviously often wiped.
Blow off the three or two pieces of tea floating on it, take a sip, leave a fragrance on your teeth and lips, and your eyes will light up, which is a rare and good tea.
"Good tea!"
Shopkeeper Zhou also walked out of the backyard at this time, holding a wooden basin with half a basin of warm water in both hands, still steaming, and holding a few neatly folded clothes around his waist with his left arm.
Qin Ling put the teacup on the counter, stepped over in three steps, and took the wooden basin in the hands of the shopkeeper with one hand.
"But clothes made by a tailor?"
"Yes, the tailor's shop has been ready for a few days, so I'll send you to your room. ”
The shopkeeper should be worried that Qin Ling took a large basin of water and took it again, which was a bit troublesome.
"If it's out of the way, I'll take it. ”
Qin Ling smiled, and the hand holding the basin also checked the wooden basin in his hand, his face did not change, obviously it was really relaxed.
"Okay then," Seeing that Qin Ling didn't seem to be lying, he handed over the clothes and stopped insisting.
Qin Ling walked to the staircase with a basin in one hand and clothes in the other, as if he remembered something.
"Shopkeeper, good tea!"
Qin Ling walked up to the second floor and closed the door.
The shopkeeper visibly froze for a moment, then laughed.
......
......
"Brother Zhou, can you have another cup?" After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to the small porcelain pot of the shopkeeper, obviously preparing to have another cup for himself.
The shopkeeper's smile froze, and he hurriedly ran over to protect the small porcelain pot, but it was far away, and he had already been succeeded by the middle-aged man, and he was already pouring tea, and it was also the same porcelain cup as the one Qin Ling had just drunk tea.
"Zhao Pifu......!"
Shopkeeper Zhou blew his beard and stared at him on the side, how tall the two figures were over
"Pour less, leave me some! Okay...... Well, it's all over!"
"Haha, it's back to you, didn't you say that you bought four taels of tea, it's still this point?"
"Zhao Pifu, Hugh said that I won't invite you to tea in the future"
"Good, good, good...... Hahaha"
Shopkeeper Zhou snatched the porcelain pot in front of him and shook it, there was not much tea left, and he wanted to cry without tears.
