Chasing the wind and scenery along the way, more than an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and I saw a stone tablet standing on the side of the road in the distance, which was engraved: Seed State Boundary. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the speed of ordinary horses, walking along the official road for half a day is where the Seokjofu on the border of Seju is located. Shicheng is a place of frequent trade and trade, and the closer it gets, the more pedestrians, carriages, horses, and wagons on the official road increases. Fortunately, the road is very wide, but when there are many people, Yunhai and the two dare not go too fast, for fear of accidentally hurting pedestrians, so that the time on the road will be longer.

Looking up at the sky, at noon, Hua Jiu'er faintly heard the scream of her stomach. Looking ahead, there is a small storefront on the side of the road not far away, and a flag is erected on the side, which reads: Full Plate Fragrant Restaurant.

"Jiu'er, let's stop and have something to eat. ”

Hua Jiu'er looked at Yunhai, who was looking at her, and suddenly she had a feeling that she was being found careful, but with food, she didn't care.

"Okay. Hua Jiu'er was overjoyed, commanded Huang Er to come to the front of the store, dismounted, and tied Huang Er and Hongda to the railing at the door. There were already three horses parked on the side: two ordinary southwestern horses that were good at climbing mountains and carrying weights, and a white horse with a pale yellow mane: a small and sharp head, big eyes, a high head and neck, and strong limbs.

Yun Hai also noticed the three horses, and led Hei'er between Huang Erhong and the three horses, and the reins only circled twice. The white horse seemed to be very spiritual, and glanced sideways at Hei'er and Huang Erhongda behind it, Huang Erhongda didn't behave abnormally, but Hei'er was a little vigilant, but it was just vigilant.

Yunhai patted Hei'er's head.

Untied the hairband on the door of her head, Hua Jiu'er cut her hairstyle, took out fresh blades of grass from the wooden barrel on the side, and put it in front of the three horses. While putting it back, he praised: "This restaurant is worthy of being a store on the official road, and it is really thoughtful, not only to prepare food for people, but also to prepare food for the pony, it is rare that it is still so fresh." ”

After giving the three horses to eat, Hua Jiu'er found that the white horse had finished eating the food prepared for it by the master, and he wanted to add some grass blades to it, and the white horse suddenly retreated to the side, as if he rejected Hua Jiu'er's kindness. Hua Jiu'er didn't laugh angrily, and said: "This horse is really human, and he knows how to reject strangers, and he is also a good horse." ”

Yunhai took the luggage and beckoned Hua Jiu'er to walk into the small store together.

There is a smell of vegetables wafting in the store, and the fragrance is fading due to the cold of the dishes, but it is really full of incense, and it is indeed just the fragrance of vegetables.

There were a total of eight tables in front of him, and on the innermost table against the wall on the right sat a tall and thin man, dressed in gray clothes and in an extremely ordinary style, with a hat on the table and a black veil hanging from the eaves; in the middle of the window sat two men, dressed as ordinary merchants; at a table at the door sat three men in coarse cloth and simple clothes, with hoes and bamboo baskets on the side, probably from the nearby mountain people.

Yun Hai picked a table against the wall on the other side and sat down, facing the door, just in time to see the entire dining room.

As soon as he sat down, the shopkeeper came over with a pot of tea and two cups, and said enthusiastically: "What do you two eat?" We have special dishes here, you can also tell me if you want to eat, if the ingredients are ordinary, you can tell us about what the dishes look like, and the chef should be able to do it." ”

It's interesting, just to make a similar meaning, right? Hua Jiu'er smiled in her heart and asked, "What are the special dishes?"

"Stir-fried pork with chili, steamed pork, spicy dried tofu, fried glutinous rice sticks. These are the specialties of the small shop. The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Hua Jiu'er looked at Yunhai, the latter nodded, and Hua Jiu'er said, "Then let's have these things, and then have a green vegetable and egg soup." ”

"Okay, you two wait a minute. The shopkeeper filled the teacups of the two of them with tea and went into the kitchen.

Hua Jiu'er drank tea and listened to the movements around her with the ear she used to be proud of: the two men dressed as businessmen were busy eating, and from time to time they would say a few words, all about the topic of going out to find the source of goods this time; the three men at the door, some talking and laughing, discussed for a while who in the mountains had met an old Ganoderma lucidum and sold it for a lot of money, and then talked about the market in Zizhou, and they were going to rush to join in the excitement in a few days; the gray-clothed man in the distance was eating quietly, and his breath was slow. It was faint and I couldn't hear any other movements, and there was the sound of water, chopping vegetables, the collision of shovels and pots, the sound of walking, and the sound of the shopkeeper and the cook talking from time to time, and the content was also painless.

After a while, the fragrance of the dish wafted out, and then the footsteps started, and the shopkeeper came over with two dishes and greeted: "Use it slowly, and the rest will be out of the pot soon." ”

Hua Jiu'er smelled it up close, it was really fragrant, but it was a little spicy, I don't know what Yunhai is?

The corners of Yunhai's mouth hooked, picked up the chopsticks and ate directly, and the food seemed to be delicious.

"Eh, I said, how does that person inside look like Yan Ke, the eldest son of Jinyi Villa?"

"No, hasn't Jinyi Villa been destroyed?"

"But this person is really familiar, I have a cousin who has some small business with Jinyi Villa, I went to the villa with him once, and I saw the eldest son, and he looks like this. ”

"Don't scare me, I'm cowardly. You just went once, can you remember?"

"Of course, the eldest prince is tall and thin, and he is very delicate. At first glance, it is the appearance of a big family, how can I remember it wrong. ”

"If that's true, wouldn't it be a hell of a life?"

"You're right, let's hurry up, no matter if it's a ghost, it's all unlucky, we often go out to find a source of goods, and we're most afraid of bad luck." ”

"Yes, yes, let's get there early, and stay in Stone City early. ”

After the two men dressed as merchants finished speaking, they left a small ingot of silver, packed it up, and walked out. After a while, two neighings, followed by a few distant hooves.

Hua Jiu'er frowned and looked at the sea of clouds.

Yunhai smiled faintly, did not comment, and continued to eat.

The shopkeeper's ears were very bright, as if he heard the sound of the silver ingots falling on the table just now, and he was not in a hurry, he walked over with a plate and a rag slowly, cleaned it up in an orderly manner, wiped it clean, and then returned to the room to stay.

Hua Jiu'er gave him a look of appreciation.

Yunhai shook his head and smiled.

After a while, the two put down their chopsticks. Hua Jiu'er ate eight points full, but Yunhai was not polite, and ate nine points full. During this period, Yunhai also asked Hua Jiu'er with his eyes, why he didn't eat some more, it was not at all like the previous eating posture at the wedding banquet in Xiaotian Villa, Hua Jiu'er didn't answer, only smiled.

The moment Hua Jiu'er laughed, the man in the gray shirt seemed to be a coincidence, stopped the dishes and chopsticks, raised his eyes, and continued to eat after only a short time.

The man in the gray shirt paid for the meal, put on a hat, and when he walked out, his eyes seemed to be looking at Hua Jiu'er all the time, but he couldn't really see it through the black veil.

Hua Jiu'er and Yun Hai also walked out of the store, and after a meal, there seemed to be fewer pedestrians on the official road, after all, if they were still here at this time, it would be after dark when they arrived in Shicheng. Of course, if it's a normal horse.

There were only three horses left outside the door, Huang Erhong and Hei'er, Huang Erhong was full and seemed to be meditating when he opened his eyes, Hei'er was standing quietly, he should be resting. After hearing the two come out, the three horses kicked and shook their heads, ready to enjoy the gallop again.

Remounted on the horse, tied the headband again, and after a command, the three horses and two people continued on their way.

To be honest, the speed is so fast, it is still a bit eye-catching, but fortunately, the speed of the three horses is extremely fast, and the pedestrians have not had time to see the appearance of the person on the seat, and the horses have already whistled past.
