Chapter 9: Dragon Inn
Three days later, Xiaoyaozi left the seaside town with the bear.
Xiong knew that what would happen next would be Lang's wanderings, but he didn't care.
So far, Xiong has stabbed out 500,000 swords, and every time he stabs his hand, it is three swords.
According to Xiaoyaozi's words, Xiong still hasn't practiced sword qi, but Xiong is already a qualified killer.
"Master, where are we going?" Xiong was still eager to know the destination, this was his curiosity.
"Jianghu. Xiaoyaozi's answer is still as vague as ever.
In this way, Xiaoyaozi took the bear on a long journey, from the State of Qi to the State of Qin.
Xiaoyaozi also has considerations for doing this.
The country of Qi, compared to other countries, is relatively stable.
The state of Qin, however, is different.
In this country ruled by tyrants, many people swallowed their anger and survived, hoping only for the opportunity to overthrow the rule of the tyrant Qin and gain real freedom.
From time to time, there would be assassins to assassinate the King of Qin, and from time to time, there would be soldiers searching for him in the city.
As a killer, staying here is undoubtedly dangerous.
Maybe at any time, he will be treated as a suspect by the soldiers and held in prison.
But Xiaoyaozi brought the bear to such a place.
When they had just stepped into the border of the Qin State, Xiaoyaozi and Xiong were stopped.
"Stop, don't move, take one more step, and you'll be killed!" the guard soldier shouted at Xiaoyaozi with his spear in his hand.
Xiaoyaozi was not surprised, stood up with a smile, and looked up at the soldier, "This military master, I don't know what you are doing?"
"He has a sword in his hand, and we suspect him of being a spy and an assassin from another country!" shouted the soldier, pointing at the bear.
Xiaoyaozi smiled faintly and said, "How can he be an assassin? You see him like this, stupid, even if he is given a sword, he doesn't have the courage to kill!"
Xiaoyaozi patted the bear's head with his hand as he spoke, giving the bear a look.
Xiong, who has always been very straightforward, has also learned to act on the spot at this time. The bear just stood like this, at the soldiers, and smiled, very silly and innocent.
The bear smiled, and the soldier was stunned. The soldier had never seen such a sincere smile, which made the soldier feel as if he had returned to his childhood, to the time when he ran barefoot on the street innocently when he was a child.
At the same time, Xiaoyaozi took out two taels of silver from the cloth bag at the right time and stuffed them into the hands of the soldiers, "Master Jun, we are all people who are begging for life in this troubled world, it is not easy for everyone, why should it be difficult for us?"
When the soldier saw the silver, he was rejoiced, waved his hand, and said, "Well, I see that you are all honest people, and you will not do such a thing as stealing chickens and dogs and violating the law, so go quickly." ”
"Master Xie. Xiaoyaozi said, turned his head, smiled strangely at Xiong, and then walked briskly towards the territory of Qin.
The bear followed.
Xiaoyaozi walked quickly through the level and entered Luoyi City with the bear.
In the west of Luoyi City, there is an inn, and business is very prosperous. Most of the people who walk on the rivers and lakes come to Luoyi City for this inn. This inn is called Dragon Inn.
The owner of the inn is said to be a widow, and people in the rivers and lakes call her the hostess. No one had ever seen the proprietress because she wore a veil almost 24 hours a day, and no one had ever seen her take off her veil.
Some people say that the proprietress is a beautiful woman like a flower.
As soon as the news spread, many men who were obsessed with lust wanted to take the veil on the face of the proprietress.
But
Anyone who thinks this way is dead, and they are dying very badly.
Since then, all the people who have a wrong idea of the boss lady have become honest all at once.
After that, the business of the proprietress became more and more prosperous, partly because she heard about the mystery of the proprietress and partly came to ask for peace. Like those who walk on the rivers and lakes, their strength is not good, but they still have enemies, they live here with the proprietress, they can definitely live steadily, although the price is a little higher, but it is safe.
Xiaoyaozi walked to the west of the city, at the door of the Longteng Inn, turned his head and said to Xiong, "Tonight, let's live here." ”
The bear tilted his head sideways and grinned, "Okay." ”
At this time, it was not yet dusk, and there were scattered people in the inn, some of them were sharp, and some of them were staying in the hotel.
"Boss, if there is a room in the sky, bring me one. Xiaoyaozi seems to be a frequent visitor here, and his tone is very old-fashioned.
But today, the proprietress is not there.
A shopkeeper greeted him warmly, "Hello, two guest officers, live in the hotel, come, please come inside." With that, he walked over to the counter and took the pen to register.
After a while, the shopkeeper ran to Xiaoyaozi and Xiong one by one, and said with a smile, "It's registered, two guest officers, please come with me." ”
Xiaoyaozi threw off the burden and threw it into the bear's hands, but he put his two hands behind his back and said lightly to the bear, "Walk." ”
The bear was not verbose, and went straight up.
Just as the bear walked up the steps and took the first step, he suddenly turned his head.
The bear's turn is not for nothing.
He heard a woman's voice.
"In these years, I haven't even let go of a wine seller, these officials are really beasts. The woman sighed as she walked towards the inn.
As soon as the woman came in, two shopkeepers greeted her, "Boss, you're back." ”
People who like to join in the fun gather around and talk about, "Guess what's going on?"
The proprietress found an empty table as if there was no one around, sat down, and sighed again, "Hey, those officers and soldiers are really cruel." The child, who was only a few years old, was beaten to death in this way. ”
The bolder people came up and asked, "Why?"
"The family that made the wine was in arrears with other people's rent, and as a result, the landlord went to report to the official. I don't know if the official ate the benefits of the landlord, and beat the person who made the wine. The poor boy wanted to step forward to stop the officers and soldiers from beating his father. I never thought that those officers and soldiers would not even let go of such a young child," said the proprietress with a sadness that permeated the entire inn.
Although everyone is from the rivers and lakes, most of the people in the rivers and lakes are affectionate and righteous people, and many strong men are angry with that person after hearing this, and they want to ask for an explanation.
But the proprietress's words made everyone stop moving: "This is the Qin State, no matter how powerful you are, can you deal with the 800,000 iron horses of the Qin State?" Even I, I don't have the ability to get out of the 800,000 iron horses. ”
The bear stood still, listened to the story, and then looked at the proprietress lingeringly, he always felt that the proprietress voice was very familiar, and there was a familiar taste.
"Bear, let's go, go upstairs. "Xiaoyaozi is urging the bear again.
Xiong didn't have time to think about it, so he could only take his baggage and go upstairs.
