CHAPTER XXXIX
Huang Tianzhong closed the door, and then turned to Qian'er and said, "Who will be the two martial arts people that the shopkeeper said just now?" Qian'er shook her head and said, "I don't know." Then he added: "I just wonder why the shopkeeper reminded us not to provoke them." Huang Tianzhong also felt that there was something strange about this. "No matter what, let's be careful." ”
"Tuk, tuk, tuk. "Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside. Huang Tianzhong shouted outside the door: "Who." "Guest, it's small. The voice of the shopkeeper came from outside the door: "The little one brings wine and food to the guest officer." ”
Huang Tianzhong heard the shopkeeper outside the door say that he had brought him wine and food, so he walked to the door and opened the door, and saw the shopkeeper holding a few plates of fried food and a pot of water and wine. Reaching out to take it, he turned around and put the wine and food on the table, took out a little broken silver in his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "It's hard work, you go down first." The shopkeeper took the silver and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." And he departed gladly.
Qian'er walked to the table, picked up the wine jug, poured the wine into the glass, and handed it to Huang Tianzhong.
Huang Tianzhong received a glass of wine, and he craned his neck to drink the wine. Seeing Huang Tianzhong's sad face, Qian'er continued to pour wine for Huang Tianzhong, and said, "Brother Zhong, why have you been worried. Huang Tianzhong picked up another glass of wine, drank it, and said: "The second brother of the shop said that there were two martial arts people in this inn the day before yesterday......" Qian'er didn't wait for Huang Tianzhong to finish speaking, and then said: "Brother Zhong, are you worried that they are coming at us." So saying, he poured the wine into two glasses.
"That's right. Huang Tianzhong still held the wine glass in the air, then put the glass down on the table again, and said, "I always feel that those two people are very suspicious." ”
The Jiuyang Supreme Order is the treasure of martial arts, and according to legend, if you get the Jiuyang Supreme Order, you can learn the martial arts, and you can dominate the martial arts and become the supreme martial arts. All the sects and factions in the rivers and lakes wanted to get this thing, so Huang Tianzhong had to take into account the words of the shopkeeper and had to be cautious.
"But those two people stayed in this store before us, so they couldn't have come for us. Qian'er looked at Huang Tianzhong incomprehensibly. "That's what I've always been unable to figure out. Huang Tianzhong frowned, picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp. Qian'er casually poured Huang Tianzhong's cup full of wine and said, "It's also a coincidence." Huang Tianzhong took a deep breath and said, "I hope so." "Come, let's have something to eat first. Qian'er smiled slightly, stopped discussing the matter, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables and put them in the bowl in Huang Tianzhong.
Huang Tianzhong pondered for a while and thought, "Maybe I'm thinking too much." Then he picked up the bowl and smiled at Qian'er: "Okay." The two of them dined in their room.
It was getting late, and Huang Tianzhong and Qian'er stayed in the room all the time.
In the inn, the shopkeeper sat at the top of the stairs and muttered, "Strange, could it be that this Huang Tianzhong still understands the hint I gave him." The shopkeeper rolled his eyes, patted his head and said, "This is impossible, I have already said it obviously." ”
In this shop, Xiao Er kept wondering if Huang Tianzhong understood what he said.
Then a young woman walked in, and the woman went to the counter and knocked, "Is there a room for the shopkeeper?" The shopkeeper, who was knocking on the abacus, heard someone say, so he looked up and said with a smile: "I don't know if this girl can help you." The woman said, "I would like to ask if there is a room." "Yes, yes, yes. The shopkeeper smiled happily as soon as he was in good spirits: "Girl, wait a minute." Then he turned his head to look at the shopkeeper sitting on the stairs and shouted, "Little Wu, where are you still stunned, why don't you take this girl to the guest room quickly." As he spoke, he smiled and nodded at the woman.
When the shopkeeper heard the shopkeeper shouting, he woke up in shock, and looked at the counter, only to see a man wearing a white dress and holding a long sword standing in front of the counter.
When the shopkeeper saw the shopkeeper staring at the girl, he angrily threw the brush on the counter at the shopkeeper. It hit the shopkeeper's face, and the ink on the brush splashed on the shopkeeper's face. The shopkeeper was shocked and realized that he was out of shape, so he scratched his head and smiled: "Hehe, aunt... Girl, please. Then he turned and led the woman upstairs.
The shopkeeper took the woman upstairs and thought to himself, "Why is she here?" and stopped, pushed open the door and turned back to the woman behind him: "Girl, this is your room, if there is anything you command, call it small." With that, he turned and left.
As soon as the woman wanted to walk into the room, she suddenly shouted, "Little second brother, wait a minute." The shopkeeper, who had just taken two steps, stopped when he heard the sound, turned around and smiled: "I don't know what the girl has to say." The woman said: "I don't know the second brother, have you seen a man and woman come to stay recently, the two are husband and wife." As he spoke, he described his appearance and height to the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he thought: "Liu Qianqian, Liu Qianqian, I know who you are looking for." Then he scratched his head and pondered for a while and said, "Listening to what the girl said, the little one is a little impressed. He deliberately made a gesture asking for money to inquire.
Li Xinlian saw that the shopkeeper made this gesture and knew that he wanted money, so she took out a little broken silver from her waist and handed it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took the silver and shook his hand up and down, as if weighing the weight of the broken silver, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile on his face: "The couple that the girl said, I think they are the people who just moved into our store today." When Li Xinlian heard this, she said happily: "What you said is true." "Really, really. The shopkeeper patted his chest and reassured, then pointed to the passage on the right and said, "Just go straight to the second room here." ”
Li Xinlian looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's finger, and said, "Thank you, little second brother." The shopkeeper nodded, shook the silver again, and said, "If the girl has no other instructions, then the little one will retreat first." Li Xinlian nodded slightly, then pushed open the door and entered. The shopkeeper strode away proudly with the silver, and said secretly in his heart: "Hmph, you little woman, if it weren't for the uncle making this gesture, you really wouldn't have rewarded the uncle." Then he said proudly and softly: "Next time, I won't help you." ”
In the room, Li Xinlian put the long sword in her hand on the table, remembered the shopkeeper just now, and read softly: "The figure and eyes of this shopkeeper, why am I so familiar, it seems that I have seen it somewhere." Then he picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea: "It seems that I have thought too much, a shopkeeper who has seen money and opened it." ”
In the blink of an eye, the time has come. The innkeeper and Xiao Er were busy cleaning up and closing the door downstairs. At this time, the candle flame in the upstairs room has been extinguished, and the guests in the room are also resting. Only three rooms are lit by candlelight.
