Chapter VII: Obstruction of Accommodation
"Dumbo. Shopkeeper Du stretched out his hand to pull Xiaofei up, and said seriously: "You are honest and upright, but you have less assertiveness when you encounter problems." In the future, when you leave home, you should ask more heroes for advice. As for you and Juan'er, it depends on your fate. Juan'er has undergone such a great change, and I can't force anything to say anything to her. You have to take good care of Juan'er in the future and don't let her suffer too much. ”
Before he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Du had already choked up, waved at everyone, and walked to the backyard.
Xiao Fei looked at the back of the shopkeeper Du with tears, and didn't know whether to follow or not?
Dongmei quietly ran to Xiaofei's side, shaved her face and said to him: "Slug, kowtow!"
When Xiao Fei heard this, he immediately blushed, and he didn't know how to deal with it?
Ouyang Qian knew that Xiao Fei was an honest man, so she hurriedly scolded Dong Mei and said, "Dong Mei, what are you talking nonsense? If you dare to bully Xiao Fei, beware of my family law." ”
The young lady was angry, and Dongmei had no choice but to pout and slip to the side.
That night, everyone hurried to rest. Only Jin Baowhip and Fang Mingyue suffered, these two thieves were abolished from their martial arts, tied up and thrown into the firewood room, unable to sleep all night, staring wide-eyed and imagining a terrifying future.
Early the next morning, Chai Shaoning was awakened by the noisy sound outside, got dressed and went out of the house to see, it turned out that the owner of the Du shopkeeper sent someone out early to buy wild game and vegetables, and Zhang Luo feasted to entertain everyone.
When the people in the village heard that Duan Youcai was ambushed, they also came in flocks to see the demeanor of these chivalrous men who eliminated traitors and defended the Tao.
Seeing that everyone got up one after another, Shopkeeper Du hurriedly led a group of temporarily hired guys to speed up the speed of cooking, sweeping the yard and setting the table, just beating gongs and drums and setting off firecrackers.
Although Chai Shaoning and the others thought it was funny, they knew that this was the intention of Shopkeeper Du, so they didn't stop it.
After breakfast, Shopkeeper Du asked everyone to stay for a few more days, but Ouyang Yu politely declined.
Shopkeeper Du knew that this would be the result, sighed secretly, and called his daughter Du Juan to come out and see your fathers.
Everyone saw that Miss Du Juan was really beautiful and lovely, dressed in a green shirt and green jacket, and her figure was as slim as a willow, no wonder Duan Youcai refused to stop. It's just that now Miss Du Juan has been ravaged and has lost her former demeanor, her haggard appearance cannot be recovered in a day, and the trauma in her heart cannot be healed in a short time.
Gao Fenglan went over and took the apprentice from her father's hands. Fang Xiaoyun and Ouyang Qian took Du Juan's hand left and right, and said some intimate words to her.
Seeing that these people were not arrogant to his daughter, Shopkeeper Du showed a relieved smile on his face.
After packing up their attire, everyone said goodbye.
The shopkeeper Du ordered someone to implicate the three carriages that had been prepared overnight. Two were for the women's dependents, and the other was loaded with water, dry food, and all kinds of pickled game, and two large boxes filled with clothes and supplies for her daughter Du Juan.
Knowing that this was not only the intention of the shopkeeper Du, but also a father's concern for his daughter, Ouyang Yu did not shirk and forcibly left enough money for the shopkeeper Du to reopen the hotel, and then sent away the three horsemen and let Geng Qiuwen, Sima Long and Chai Shaoning each drive one.
Geng Qiuwen drove the vehicle that pulled things, and Fang Xiaoyun cleaned up a corner of the car behind the driver's seat and accompanied the senior brother to catch the car.
Ouyang Qian and Chunlan helped Du Juan get into the carriage driven by Sima Long, and drove the other three naughty girls to the same car with Chai Shaoning.
Qiu Ju and Dongmei are in the middle of it. Not only did Dongmei have an intimate move with Chai Shaoning behind everyone's back, but she also understood Qiu Ju's distress, and pulled the third sister who couldn't grind her face into Chai Shaoning's arms.
Don't look at Chai Shaoning's love for Song Yuanlan, she never knows how to further develop the relationship between the two, but with the two pretty girls, everything has become so relaxed and natural, full of strange attraction to each other, eager to stay together all the time.
Therefore, for Ouyang Qian's arrangement, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei were overjoyed, and they grinned and dragged Xia He, who was full of complaints, into the carriage driven by Chai Shaoning.
Xiao Ting still drove the original car, and Song Yuanlan abandoned the horse and Shangguan Rou to accompany Xue Nianci into the car.
Gao Fenglan has been wandering the rivers and lakes all her life, and she is used to riding horses, and she and her senior brother Zheng Dapeng led Xiaofei to press the back of the convoy.
Ouyang Yu left the seven extra horses that the girls had ridden at this time to the shopkeeper Du, and walked side by side with Sun Shaoyang, leading the mounts and walking out of the courtyard with a smile.
Outside the door of the Du Family Inn, the black pressure was crowded with people watching the excitement.
Seeing the convoy drive out, the villagers automatically moved out of the way, and the excited chatter was accompanied by the sound of admiration and the crusade against the thieves.
Seeing such a situation, Ouyang Yu and Sun Shaoyang both sighed secretly. Jin Baowhip and Fang Mingyue, the two thieves, probably couldn't wait to be handed over to the government by the Du family, so they had to die under the chaotic fists of the villagers.
Of course, the two of them would not pity those two thieves, every thief should have thought that there would be such an ending at the beginning of the evil, but they were all raised by their parents, who would like their children to become thieves? Ouyang Yu and Sun Shaoyang are pitiful parents who have worked hard to raise their children but have ended up miserably.
Leaving Changping Town, the front drove into the vast plains and wilderness.
For two days in a row, everyone stayed overnight, and when they were hungry, they ate the food prepared by the shopkeeper, and when they drank all the water, they looked for nearby streams and clear springs to replenish it.
As the road widened, there were more and more markets ahead, and everyone was only two days away from Daming Mansion.
It was getting late, and the convoy came to a market town called Xinli.
As soon as they entered the town, everyone noticed that the atmosphere here was a little wrong. On both sides of the road, people were constantly pointing at the convoy, and some hawkers selling cooked food saw the arrival of the people, and hurriedly left their stalls, as if to avoid the plague.
Ouyang Yu and Sun Shaoyang, who were walking in front, glanced at each other, and both of them raised their vigilance in their hearts.
Look at an inn on the side of the road ahead, Sun Shaoyang got off the horse and invested in the store, but unfortunately it happened to be full.
After a little further on, the second inn was still full, and the previous one was exactly the same as the first two.
Needless to say, someone must be doing something in the shadows.
When the convoy came to the door of the fourth inn, it was already the end of the town, and there was a dense forest at the entrance of the village, although there was a spacious official road leading into the forest, but in the desolate atmosphere of the autumn sun, the leaves danced with the wind, rustling, making people feel an indescribable sense of sadness from the bottom of their hearts.
The shopkeeper at the door of the inn saw everyone dressed up, and he didn't say a word, and he was about to close when he turned inside.
Sun Shaoyang had expected it, so he hurriedly took two steps to the door and stuffed a silver ingot into the small second-hand hand.
As if he was being burned, the shopkeeper threw the silver on the ground, and begged while forcibly closing the door: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm really sorry, the shop is full, please find another place to live!"
Sun Shaoyang was made nameless by the rude behavior of the shopkeeper, and his fierce eyes were about to attack, when Song Yuanlan came over next to him.
Song Yuanlan knew that Sun Shaoyang's identity was detached, and it was inconvenient to deal with these people in general, so as soon as the carriage stopped, she jumped out of the car, and saw the shopkeeper throw Sun Shaoyang's silver on the ground. She was afraid that Sun Shaoyang would lose his temper and leave a handle for others, so she hurriedly stepped forward and pushed Xiao Er back to the halfway door and said, "We are not here to stay in the hotel." ”
"Isn't it a hotel?" The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, subconsciously stopped closing the door, and asked strangely: "Since the guest officers don't live in the store, why do you come to our shop?"
"Please come out and speak. Song Yuanlan's eyes widened and she spoke angrily.
"I'm sorry!" The shopkeeper guessed that Song Yuanlan was looking for something to say, and while closing the door again, he said: "Our boss happened to be far away today, and he won't be able to come back until three months later." ”
Listening to the shopkeeper's words, Song Yuanlan raised her foot and kicked the door that was about to close, and at the same time pulled out her long sword with a "swish".
The shopkeeper was knocked to the ground and fell to the ground, and shouted in fright: "You, what are you going to do?"
"Listen to me!" Song Yuanlan shook her long sword, pointed the tip of the sword at the nose of the shopkeeper and threatened the other party: "A friend of mine's whole family was killed by thieves, we tracked it all the way here, and found that thieves entered your store. I'm going to go in and search room to room, and if I find out you're harboring thieves, I'm sorry! I'll cut off your head and bring your head to the office. ”
"Wronged!" The shopkeeper turned pale with fright, and while shouting injustice, he turned back to the courtyard and said, "How do I know that you are suing for human life?"
Song Yuanlan didn't want to listen to the shopkeeper's explanation, followed his gaze and looked over, and saw a man sitting in the courtyard, gray clothes and gray pants, sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, long hair tied in a bun on his head at will, loose and sloppy, very sloppy, not like the people living in the hotel, but like a scoundrel who blackmails to eat and drink.
When the man saw Song Yuanlan looking at him, he hurriedly turned his head to avoid Song Yuanlan's gaze.
Song Yuanlan sneered, walked straight towards the other party and said, "Okay, I can't find you, I can't see you, you still dare to be happy here." When I cut off your legs, see where you're going to run?"
"Doesn't the girl just want to see if the room in the inn is really full, why pretend to be like this, where are there any thieves here? In broad daylight, don't think that you can scare people with a sword!" Seeing that he couldn't hide, the man simply turned back, and the thief feasted on Song Yuanlan's pretty face unscrupulously, with a disdainful and malicious sneer on the corner of his mouth, and his stilted Erlang's legs swayed, without putting Song Yuanlan in his eyes at all.
"Are you kidding me?" Song Yuanlan's eyes erupted, "Since you are a minion of the Heavenly Thief, you should know the hatred between us and the Heavenly Thief." If you don't tell me where your accomplices are today, don't want to leave this inn alive. ”
"What kind of thief?" Seeing that Song Yuanlan's eyes were full of murder, the man was also afraid, and put down Erlang's leg vigilantly, ready to run away, and pleaded in his mouth: "I don't know any thieves at all, don't wronged people." ”
Song Yuanlan saw that the other party was panicked, and was just about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, when there was a "bang", and the door of a guest room was vigorously opened from the inside, and after hitting the wall in a roundabout way, it bounced back, and was kicked by the people next to the big man.
"Everyone is watching, dare to carry out murder with swords, you are really a group of grass robbers who do not obey the teaching!" With the shouting and scolding, a big man in a tight samurai uniform strode out of the door, and a group of thugs followed behind him, all with knives and sticks, and the momentum was violent.
