Chapter 393: A Place in the Story
Shaoyuan, who followed the official road, drove for two days in a row, and inquired about Pan Jie and other people at inns and hotels everywhere along the way, but his purpose was far from their current location, so no matter who he asked, he found nothing. Especially with two entourages who don't understand the language, Shao Yuan can only do it himself every time he asks, and all the way down, he is naturally too tired to do it.
Lying in the private room of the teahouse, Shao Yuan was gasping for breath, and the two attendants were cooling down Shao Yuan's fan on the side, Shao Yuan said incomprehensibly, "We have all run so fast, why haven't we caught up with them, and let alone catch up, it seems that they are all out of the dust together, I asked many people, but I don't know their traces, is their makeup and disguise technology so powerful? It's just a different person?"
Lao Wu said, "Master, I have a word to say about this pursuit"
Shaoyuan nodded, "Say, is there any news we leaked, so we can't find it?"
Lao Wu shook his head, "No, master, I think that the person we want to chase may not be in front of us at all, but in front of us"
Shaoyuan took off the face towel on his head, "What? Old Five, why do you think so?"
The fifth arched his hand and said, "Master, think about it, we set off that night, there is a curfew in the city, we have a special identity, so we can naturally pass through the city defense, but what about them? The little ones feel that they don't necessarily have our skills, so the little ones feel that they are very likely to leave the next day when the city gate is opened, so that we and them will at least have a distance to run at full speed for one night."
Listening to the fifth child's calm analysis, not only the fourth, but even Shaoyuan opened his mouth to express surprise, and the strange expressions of the two also made the fourth child wonder, "Master, did I say something wrong?"
Shao Yuan immediately reacted, "No, no, no, you are too right, habitually put the enemy on the same conditions, forgetting that the other party may not be able to go out of the city, careless, there is one more person on the other side, it is estimated that it is not so fast, we are really running too fast this time" Shaoyuan closed his eyes and shouted loudly, "Shopkeeper!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he only heard a sound on the stairs of the bamboo building, "Guest officer, but what's the matter?"
Shao Yuan crossed his hand, "Shopkeeper, do you have any rooms here?" If so, prepare three rooms for me, and today we will find a place to live."
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, "Some guest officers, but they are all ordinary side rooms, just in the backyard, please come with me"
Shaoyuan, who was somewhat relieved, immediately put away his tense nerves and followed behind the shopkeeper.
There are a few stilted bamboo high-rise buildings in the backyard, which is the wing room, and the shopkeeper took out the key and handed it to the three people, "guest officer, the small shop only has this kind of bamboo building, it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is a small bamboo forest on the other side of the river from the bamboo building, and you can see the starlight at night, which is very beautiful"
Shaoyuan took the key and said with a smile, "Thank you, shopkeeper, if there is anything we need, we will go to you again."
The shopkeeper bowed his hand, "Then a few guest officers will have a good rest"
Shaoyuan picked up the key and said to the two behind him, "Let's sleep well first, you guys have been running with me all morning, you are so nervous these days, and you are tired, sleep well"
The fourth and fifth arched their hands and said, "Thank you, master"
I don't know the day and night when I woke up, it was already evening, Shao Yuan walked out of the room, and the two entourages walked back from outside, and when they saw Shao Yuan, they bowed their hands and said, "Master, you wake up"
Shaoyuan nodded, "What, have you eaten?"
The fourth and fifth nodded and said, "I've eaten, do you need us to accompany the master to eat again?"
Shaoyuan waved his hand, "Don't say goodbye, you guys still watch me eat after eating, it feels very strange, I can eat it alone, you go back first"
"Boss, let's have two side dishes, I'm hungry after a good afternoon's sleep" Shao Yuan sat in the hall and said to the boss.
The boss answered, and then ran into the kitchen, and after a while, he brought out a few side dishes, "Guest officer, please use it slowly"
While eating vegetables, Shaoyuan drew a map with tea, thinking about the next journey, and by the light, the boss suddenly said, "The guest officer is drawing a small bamboo forest by the river?"
Shaoyuan looked up at the boss, then looked at his slightly scribbled tea trail, and said with the intention of not revealing his purpose, "Yes, the boss has good eyesight, I drew so sloppily, you can see it"
The boss said proudly, "Many literati come to our town, and when they see the small bamboo forest, they can't help but feel emotional, some write poems, some paint, and the old man has seen a lot.
Shaoyuan put down the teacup and asked, "How can the shopkeeper see it?"
The boss said, "Childe looks delicate, although the clothing is a simple pattern, but the material is the best fabric in Yangzhou, walking is vigorous, followed by two Kunlun slaves in front of the momentum of the son also seems weak, presumably it is a person from the Yangzhou family, guess right?"
Shaoyuan laughed, "Boss has good eyesight, by the way, boss, this shouldn't be like the curfew in the city, right?"
The boss pointed out the window, "The small bamboo forest is a good choice, it is the turn of spring and summer, there should be no fireflies, many young men and women will fall in love under the beautiful scenery of that good day, and the son can go to see it"
Shaoyuan looked at the small bamboo forest, "Boss, I vaguely feel that the small bamboo forest, is there anything that happened to the small bamboo forest?"
The boss looked at Shaoyuan with a hint of doubt" Since the son has this question, the old man does not have to hide it, anyway, it is not a thing, the small bamboo forest, it is said that it is the small bamboo forest of the sword emperor and the Jiang family fighting the Lin family, after their war, the small bamboo forest was because of the poisonous gas, and let the living people not be able to approach, two or three years can not enter, but thanks to the two or three years, the small bamboo forest can thrive, and when we can go in again, the small bamboo forest has become a beautiful scenery, and gradually there are more tourists, and the locals have intentionally or unintentionally concealed that dusty history, the guest officer actually feels that the small bamboo forest is not simple, it is indeed extraordinary”
"The Battle of the Little Bamboo Forest, is that the place where it is rumored in that story that the Jiang family lost their youth in the first battle?"
After Shaoyuan Whirlwind finished eating, he said to the boss, "Boss, I'll go to the small bamboo forest to have a look, if my entourage asks me where I went, they will say that I went to the small bamboo forest, it's troublesome."
The shopkeeper arched his hand "Okay, the guest officer walks slowly"
