Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Because there were so many people stranded in the city, the lobby of the inn was quickly filled with people.

"Boss, my purse was stolen, but I'm not without money. Can't you wait until I find the person and then come back to return the money to you?" A voice came from the front desk.

"I've seen a lot of people like you. You dress up in nice clothes and pretend to be rich, but you pretend to be noble, but you can't pay anything!" The boss grabbed a young man by the collar and refused to let him go.

"I'm not that kind of person!" the young man said, "My wallet was really stolen, and I gave you the money for the hotel a few days ago..."

"I don't care who you are, kid, I don't sell on credit here. Unless you stay and work as a waiter for a few days and pay off your debt, you can't leave!" said the boss angrily.

"What! But I'm in a hurry about this matter..." said the young man.

The two of them pulled each other and turned around. Gu Yue looked back and was shocked by the young man's appearance.

The man had a long scar on his face, and there were many pits on it, which made him look extremely ugly. Although the clothes he wore were made of good material, they were dirty and tattered, and looked like he had rolled in a mud puddle.

"He... knows martial arts." Shi San looked for a while and suddenly said.

"Is it true?" Wu Yan and the others couldn't tell.

"Very weak." Shi Sandian commented.

This function is really amazing! Gu Yue also wants to have it, so that he can easily identify the dangers around him and the hidden talents.

"Since he knows martial arts, it should be easy for him to escape, right? This guy is too honest." Gu Yue said.

They were sitting quite close to each other, and unexpectedly, the young man heard what he said.

He was furious and said, "Am I that kind of person? And that big guy, I'm not weak!"

Gu Yue was embarrassed: "You are a very nice person."

The young man had no time to argue with him: "Boss, I have something urgent to do. You heard me, I know martial arts, I can knock you down with one punch, you'd better ..."

"You're threatening me?!" the boss was furious. "Someone come! Someone's messing up the place!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen people stood up in the lobby of the inn and surrounded the front desk. The boss said, "I have been running a shop in Tongguan for so many years. Could it be that I was scared?"

It's broken! We have to fight!

Gu Yue's mind automatically recalled the plot of a TV drama. A fight broke out, and then the guests ran out screaming. For a moment, the stools and tables in the room were overturned, and the delicious food and wine were spilled all over the floor...

“Hey, hey, hey!” Gu Yue quickly stood up to stop them: “What are you doing? Business requires harmony. Why do you just start fighting like that?”

The main reason is that they are sitting too close and easily affected.

"Who are you? You heard it too, it was this guy who threatened me first!" said the boss.

"Oh, I think it's all a misunderstanding. If this person really wanted to run away, he would have left long ago. How could you stop him? He is trying to reason with you because he doesn't want to hurt you, right?" Gu Yue was a reasonable person.

The boss squinted his eyes and said, "No matter what, this store does not accept credit, no matter what the reason! People come and go in Tongguan, and everyone buys on credit. How can I do business?"

"Brother, brother, lend me some money. When I come back, I will pay you back tenfold!" The young man seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw.

Gu Xu frowned, walked over, put his hand on Gu Yue's shoulder, and stood like a guard.

Gu Yue sighed. It was already like this. Could he just stand by and watch? Refuse and then walk away? No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem good.

"Boss, how much money do you need?" he asked.

"This man lives in the No. 1 room, which costs four taels of silver a night," said the boss.

It’s really expensive! It’s more than ten times the price of Yuning Mansion! However, Gu Yue had a lot of spare money on hand, so he didn’t care about this little money, so he paid for the young man.

The boss touched the handful of silver and looked much better. He waved his hand to indicate that the matter was settled, and peace returned to the inn.

"Thank you so much, brother. What's your name and where are you from? When I get back, I will definitely give you tenfold, no, a hundredfold!" The young man clasped his fists in gratitude.

"No... a hundred times?!" Gu Yue's heart was moved.

Four hundred taels!

Gu Xu pinched him lightly. Gu Yue was alert and refused solemnly: "No need, raise your hand... It's just a small favor, woo woo."

The young man looked at him with emotion: "Brother, you are truly of high character, generous and kind, willing to give alms, willing to help the poor and needy, selfless, generous and charitable..."

"Okay, okay, go away." Gu Yue waved his hand.

It hurts. If this trip wasn't too conspicuous, he would have made a profit of the four hundred taels of silver.

After pulling Gu Xu to sit at the table, Gu Yue felt better.

The meal was finished peacefully.

After having tea and resting in the lobby until just after noon, they continued on their journey. Coming out of the inn and heading towards the west city gate, they saw a long line of people extending from the city gate before they were halfway there.

"What's going on?" Gu Yue pulled a businessman and asked.

"Hey! It is said that there is a war at the border. Everyone entering and leaving the city is strictly checked!" The merchant said, "None of us merchants are allowed to pass. We have to have our identities checked thoroughly and approved by the Tongguan magistrate before we can be allowed to pass. We also have to pay money, but even if we pay money, they may not let us pass..."

Another businessman also said: "Really! The last time this happened was about thirty years ago, when my father's generation encountered it."

"My goods are not durable. What should I do?"

"Luckily we have utensils here so we can last for a while, but everything in town has gone up in price, and if we delay for too long we'll really lose money!"

The businessmen started talking about it.

"What should we do? Your thing should work, right?" After returning to the team, Gu Yue asked Gu Xu in a low voice.

Gu Xu nodded: "Don't worry."

The group of people, leading their horses, bypassed the long line and headed towards the west gate.

When I arrived at the city gate, I saw another acquaintance.

The scarred young man argued with the guard: "Still can't go through today?! My pass and letter clearly state that I'm going to look for my relatives, and I also have the county magistrate's seal. I put them in the city without any hassle, so why can't I use them to leave the city!"

"This is the rule! The border is in turmoil. In order to prevent spies from entering and leaving the pass, no suspicious person can leave the city!" The guard's face was dark.

The young man got angry.

"You, you! I will remember you!"

"You are so rude!" the guard shouted, "Are you trying to cause trouble?"

Gu Yue pulled Gu Xu and said, "Why is this guy here? He won't stick to us, will he?"

Gu Xu said: "...It's hard to say. Let's hide behind the horses and ask Wu Huo to go and talk."

"Row."

Gu Xu handed the token of unknown origin to Wu Huo, who showed it to him and gave him a bag of money. The guard immediately looked better, moved aside the barricades, and let them pass.

There was a commotion in the team behind.

Gu Yue and Gu Xu were leading their horses out of the city gate.

The young man had sharp eyes and recognized the pattern of their clothes at a glance. He was overjoyed: "Brother! Good brother!"
