Chapter 460: Staying at a hotel late at night
Ding Ding's expression was very anxious, of course he hoped that Nanjian would leave now. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Nan Jian also understood his mood at the moment, "Ding Ding," he said, "I just came down from Oolong Mountain, and I haven't had dinner yet, and," Speaking of this, he guided Ding Ding with his gaze to look at the wound on his left arm where the blood had congealed.
He continued, "Just now, I was stabbed by the old immortal He Han, and now this arm is still numb. ”
Hearing him say this, Ding Ding was very reluctant to go, "Nan Daxia," he said, "Your body is important, you see, when it is convenient for you, when you go!" After that, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, and muttered in a low voice: "It's just that the deputy gang of the beggar gang has suffered a little." ”
"Deputy Gang Leader, what's wrong with him?" Hearing this, Nan Jian cried out in shock, grabbed his shoulders and asked, "Deputy Gang Leader, what's wrong?"
"Alas!" Ding Ding was angry, he slammed the fist holding the horsewhip on the palm of his hand and said, "The deputy gang leader did not pay attention when he was fighting with the people of Matou City, and was injured by the righteous brother of the gun king Liu Junshan, Zhuge Ping, with a poisonous crossbow arrow;
"In this way, it is really urgent!" Nanjian clenched his fists, and his solemn expression was deciding whether to leave immediately, or wait for a break before leaving.
The Nangong Lin and Nangong Yu sisters on the side saw that he had the intention of leaving immediately, so they stopped together, "Brother Nan!" Nangong Lin took the lead and said, "Far water can't quench your thirst, even if you rush to Matou City now, you may not be able to find Zhuge Ping to get the antidote; In this way, people are sleepy and lacking, and there is more luck and less luck!"
"Yes, Nanlang!" Nangong Yu also anxiously persuaded.
"Brother, don't embarrass yourself!" Xiao Tianlong Zhang Haisheng also frowned deeply and said, "After all, you yourself are now covered in injuries and tired. Besides, it's night again, and as the ancient saying goes, let's go find an inn and stay at an inn, rest for the night, and leave again tomorrow morning. In this way, the horses will have the spirit and will run faster, and the people will be more energetic, and the road will be smoother and safer. ”
"That makes sense," and at last, Ding Ding persuaded him again, "Nan Daxia, let's rest for the night again, and hurry early tomorrow morning, that will be smoother and safer." ”
Nan Jian nodded, and let out a sigh from his chest, "It's okay, let's go further and see which inn still has a vacant room!"
They led their horses onward, and the pale moonlight shone on each face, showing a look of exhaustion and weariness. Suddenly, there was a desolate barking of dogs in front, and everyone looked up, only to see that there was already a shop on the edge of the street in front of them, and in the slow night breeze, the two bowls of lanterns under the porch at the door emitted orange-red light, and the word "inn" on it was reflected at a glance.
"It's the inn in front!" Nangong Yu excitedly pointed to the place with a lantern in front of her and blurted out. She thinks that as long as she finds a place to live, Nanjian will not go to Matou City rashly.
"Yes, let's go and ask, if there are any empty guest rooms!" Nangong Lin also said excitedly.
The five of them led three horses to the door of the inn, and immediately the shopkeeper Fu Donglai greeted him with a smile, "Rare guests, rare guests, a few guest officers, why haven't you found a place to stay?"
When Nan Jian saw it, he was not only secretly strange in his heart, because when they were in the teahouse just now, the shopkeeper they saw seemed to be this person. "Hey, aren't you the shopkeeper of the teahouse?" As soon as he walked out, Xiaotianlong Zhang Haisheng blurted out.
Fu Donglai bowed to the five people, and laughed, "That's right, that's right!" He said, "The hero has good eyesight, and it is the shopkeeper you saw in the teahouse just now; my surname is Fu, my name is Donglai, and I have opened a few more restaurants and inns in the town." And the teahouse you went to just now was only taken over this year, and it has just been put into trial operation, and it has not yet been officially operated!"
"I see," Xiaotianlong Zhang Haisheng immediately returned the salute to the other party, and said in surprise, "No wonder, when I walked all the way in the morning, I saw many restaurants, inns, and teahouses with signs from the east. It turns out that the strength of the shopkeeper is so strong, which is really remarkable...... It's amazing!"
So saying, the five of them tied their horses, rushed in, and entered the door of the inn. "Shopkeeper Fu, is there still a guest room?" asked Nanjian as he walked to the counter on the right side of the inn entrance.
"Yes...... Yes...... Yes," said the other party with a smile of enthusiasm, "it is the off-season, and if it is the New Year's holiday, the business will be a little busy, and at that time, if you come at this time, there must be no empty rooms, but now it is the off-season, and there are several empty rooms every day." ”
When everyone heard him say this, the worries in their hearts finally fell to the ground. Now that there are so many people, how to book a room is a big problem, but Nan Jian didn't hesitate, he thought that this place was closer to Oolong Mountain. Now, the old fairy of the oolong is gone, and in addition to him, there are many minions in the cottage, and he must stay with the two girls for safety.
Therefore, he asked for two large rooms close together, one for Xiaotianlong Zhang Haisheng and Ding Ding to live in, and one for him to live with two girls. The room was settled, and the hostess of the inn was about to take them to the room to rest, but they heard Nan Jian ask them: "Shopkeeper, at this time, it is inconvenient for you to get some wine and food to eat, and we haven't had dinner yet?"
Fu Donglai, the shopkeeper, immediately said with a smile, "It's completely okay! I look at the five guest officials, and they don't look like locals, since everyone hasn't eaten dinner yet, I'll go and inform the cook now, get up and cook; I won't tell everyone that the cooks are sleeping soundly at this time, and it's the first time for them to get up and cook at this time!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't stop praising the innkeeper for being good and good at business. Therefore, the five of them sat down and waited at the tables in the inn hall. As soon as they sat down, everyone looked around, and they found that the large living room of this inn was not very large, and there were only seven sets of tables and stools together; The two windows at the back of the house lay open, and I could see the pale mountains and the shadows of the trees in the moonlight.
Just as everyone was quietly looking at the furnishings and decoration of the inn's hall, an old cough came from the stairs. Nan Jian looked up in response, and saw a big man with a round face and a man with a long face and a short beard, supporting an old lady trembling with a cane, slowly walking down the stairs.
This old woman, with silver and white hair, tied a neat knot at the back of her head. Wearing a green cloth smock, a pair of blue-gray pants, and a pair of wide-soled shoes, he walked forward step by step. And the man on either side of her, as if it was the old man's two sons, was cautious of her and beckoned to protect her.
Although the old man walked very slowly, when the purple-clothed swordsman Nan Jian peeled the fifth peanut in his hand, the old man happened to walk past their table with the support of two young men.
"Oh, young man, you haven't eaten so late!" As the old man passed by their table, he said something like this.
Immediately, everyone smiled at the old man, "Grandma, we just arrived here!" Nangong Yu said politely towards the old lady.
"Oh, you've just arrived!" said the old man, who had already walked past their table, "I'm smothered up there, come down and breathe!"
And the two young men who walked beside the old man kept waving and apologizing to everyone in the back along the way - repeatedly telling everyone: "I'm sorry, our old woman is like this, the older the person, the more she talks!"
