Chapter 405: Invitation
"Don't you know, old man, this city is not peaceful now!" At the city gate, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate accepted the old man's silver, and their attitude immediately changed, and they were a lot more polite to the old man, and their titles changed from "old man" to old man.

When the old man heard this, he immediately asked, "Then dare to ask this little brother, I don't know what kind of unpeaceful law is in this city now?"
The officers and soldiers guarding the gate waited for this, pretending to look left and right mysteriously, and saw that there was no one around...... In fact, there is no one at this time. It's time to take care of the city gates, even in normal times, no one will come. But what the officers and soldiers guarding the door seemed to want was this atmosphere, although there was no one around, they still put their careful mouths to the old man's ear, and whispered: "I'll tell you this, don't tell anyone that I told you." I'll tell you the truth, there's goblin trouble in this city right now!"
"Goblin?" the old man's eyes flashed, and he raised his head sharply, jumped over the city wall, and looked over the city. After glancing back and forth for a long time, he nodded thoughtfully: "Since this is the case, then the little old man will go in even more." ”
"You, why don't you listen to persuasion!" The officers and soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but be a little anxious: "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, but now in this city, nearly 20 people have died." Just last night, those demons and monsters came to the city to make trouble. It is also for this reason that our county order has ordered the closure of the city, and now this Qingshan County is not allowed to enter or leave. You old man, if you go in for the sake of curiosity about what the goblins are like, and regret it after two days, you won't be able to get out if you want to come out again! Even if you are old enough to live enough, you don't think about yourself, but you have to think about your child!"
The old man didn't seem to expect this officer and soldier to be so kind, and he thought about them all, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words, and then smiled: "It's worried about the little brother, but the little brother can rest assured, since the old man dares to enter the city, he has considered the consequences." Moreover, if the goblin didn't cause any trouble, but was just tossing and turning in the city, it would be fine if the old man didn't go in; now he dares to do evil and harm people's names, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to keep it! This little brother, I won't lie to you, this little goblin, the old man still doesn't take it seriously!"
The young man also said in the back: "That's right! Brother official, don't look at my father's old age, just treat him as old and frail, my father is very powerful! Don't talk about him, even if it's me, I'm not afraid of those Rausch demons and monsters! If they don't come out, if they come out, hum! I have to give them a good look!"
"Keeer! Hugh is talking nonsense!" the old man scolded. He said that he had some skills, and he was not afraid of goblins, but he felt the worry of the officers and soldiers guarding the gate, in order to reassure him. But in the young man's opinion, he is a little suspicious of self-selling and boasting, and he doesn't want his son to develop the habit of pride.
When the officer and soldier at the gate heard the two of them say this, they muttered in their hearts: It turns out that these two people are father and son, and at first I thought they were grandchildren. Cover is different from later generations, marriage is late, now this Tang Dynasty, although it is stipulated that men get married at the age of twenty, but that is only the latest, early fifteen, sixteen, sixteen or seventeen marriage and childbirth is not nothing. Therefore, some people in their thirties can become grandfathers early. On the other hand, the old man in front of him looked like he was in his fifties before he had a teenage son, how could he not be surprised?
However, these things had nothing to do with him, knowing that the two were father and son, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate thought: I don't know if what the father and son said is true, whether they are talking big words, or whether they really have the ability? Instead, he raised his eyes and looked at the old man and the young man carefully, and saw that the young man was carrying a sword, and the old man was also carrying something on his back, wrapped in cloth, as if it was also a sword. He couldn't help but light up in his eyes: "It turns out that the two of you are actually the rangers of the rivers and lakes?" But then he shook his head and persuaded again: "Two, don't think I'm verbose, and don't think I'm looking down on you." The rangers on the rivers and lakes, I am a small guard, although I have not seen them, but I have heard of their skills. I know that some of you even have the ability to fly over the wall and fly leaves to hurt people. But my husband, the people who are doing evil in this city now are not wicked people, but monsters. How can our mortal martial arts compare to the spells of monsters?"
Hearing this, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but look at the old man and the young man for a long time, and saw that their faces were resolute, and they did not have the slightest intention of retreating. Knowing that he couldn't persuade them, he pondered for a while, and handed the old man's money bag back to the old man: "Boss, let's do it, since you insist on going in, I won't take your money anymore." I just hope you have the best luck and don't run into youkai. Even if you do, you can escape...... In short, life is important, you better find a good inn to live in with this silver. Because the county lord ordered the closure of the city, only entry and exit are allowed, and it is not easy to find inns in this city now. Even if it's a remote place, it's been speculated at a sky-high price! But it's too remote and it's not safe, so it's better to find an inn with a lot of people. ”
The old man waved his hand and smiled: "Little brother, don't be like this, this silver is to thank you for slowing down the city gate for us, after all, we have delayed you a lot of time." Besides, how can there be any reason to take back this thing that was sent out? What kind of person does the little brother think of the little old man? Quickly put it away, quickly put it away-"
The officer and soldier guarding the gate saw that the old man was resolute, and he didn't want to shirk it again. But in a blink of an eye, I caught a glimpse of the clothes on the old man and the young man, all of them were very ordinary, not like a rich person, so he simply took the money bag and stuffed it into the young man's arms. Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand reached in front of the young man, suddenly the figure in front of him flickered, and the young man disappeared. Then I heard the young man's voice coming from the other side of the horse: "Brother Guan, Daddy said that this money will be given to you, and you will keep it!"
The officers and soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but be shocked, knowing that although the horse led by the young man was thin, it was not short. Just now, the boy was still standing here with the horse, why did he run to the horse in a blink of an eye?
How did he get there?
Is it drilling the belly of a horse?
Still is...... Tumbling over on horseback?
Thinking of the fresh breeze they had felt on their faces before, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate felt that the young man's eight achievements had been turned over on horseback. Shocked, his heart suddenly moved slightly, and he turned his head to face the old man.
"Uncle, I can accept this money, but there is a request, I hope you can agree. ”
"What requirements?"
The old man was slightly surprised, accepting money from others and making demands from others, which was the first time he had seen such a thing.
The young man also turned back from the side of the horse, and looked at the officer guarding the gate curiously, wanting to see what kind of request he was going to make.
The officer and soldier guarding the door rolled up his sleeves and saluted the two of them lightly, saying, "It's not a big deal, I just want to invite the two of you to live in the cold house, hoping to agree." (To be continued.) )
