Crystal Coffin of Bodyguard

Chapter 16 Changle Town

Everyone hurried on their way, and when it was getting dark, they had already arrived in Changle Town. As far as the eye could see, there were no pedestrians in the streets and alleys of Changle Town. Walking through one street, the houses on both sides were all closed. There were one or two houses with wide open doors, some bodyguards went to check, and there was dust and cobwebs all over the house, obviously no one lived there for a few days, Shang Liu sighed: "It seems that Changle Town is not much better. "

While speaking, he had already reached the main street of Changle Town, Cheng Tieyi's eyes lit up, he pointed to the middle of the street and said, "Guo Xu, there are still lights on at the Yuelai Inn."

When everyone looked carefully, sure enough, a string of white lanterns hung on the pillars at the front door of the inn in the street, and each lantern was pasted with big Chinese characters, which together became the four characters "Yuelai Inn". Everyone was delighted. The bodyguard team went to the Yuelai Inn, only to notice that there were lights in twos and threes in the houses on the side of the street, but they were sparsely populated, making it even more sparsely populated.

Feng Ping wondered: "It's not dark yet, why are these townspeople huddled in their homes? Could it be true that as the fairy tales say, there will be ghosts and ghosts to take people's lives at night?" Everyone laughed loudly. It's just a smile, and I feel uneasy in my heart, and it's not easy.

Walking to the entrance of the inn, there was no waiter coming to greet the guests. Shang Liuzi commanded all the bodyguards to set up the bodyguard carts, and sent people to lead the horses to drink water. When Guo Xu and Tie Yi entered the inn, they found the guests in the inn. Not quite a few, sitting around the table in twos and threes, just like eggplants beaten by frost, listless and unable to cheer up, it seemed that there was no one in the inn, and stood at the door for a while before there was someone dressed as a waiter The man came up to meet him, and said listlessly: "Is the guest officer a top-notch or a hotel?"

Since ancient times, the door has been opened to do business, and there is no reason why a customer would be so negligent. Cheng Tieyi was angry and was about to taunt him when he heard Guo Xu say: "Stay in the hotel, prepare two tables of wine and food for the brothers to clean up. "

The waiter heard that it was a big deal, so he just looked up at Guo Xu, smiled on his face, and said: "Okay, sir, wait a moment, the food and drink will be here soon." He said happily and went away .

Guo Xu said to Cheng Tieyi: "This town is so dilapidated, it's possible for them to buy and sell unintentionally, so there's no need to get angry."

At this time, Caiyu and Duan Lingluo also came over, and Caiyu said: "This is not right, it should be said that only their inn is open to welcome guests in a radius of a hundred miles. I'm not afraid of neglecting the guests." Guo Xu smiled and said, "Yes, Miss Cheng is absolutely right."

While talking, Liu Ye also came with an off-duty bodyguard, and the group of people sat at two Eight Immortals tables. The travelers in the lobby were listless and drowsy, but when they saw such beauties as Caiyu Duan Lingluo, they were all shocked. When they regained their energy, those with companions gathered together to whisper together, Duan Lingluo blushed and only ate with her head down, while Caiyu looked calm.

Said it was wine and food, the wine was bland, the dishes were thick, the salty ones were even milder, and they lost everyone's appetite for food. Cheng Tieyi couldn't help but uttered a few words of complaint, which happened to be heard by the waiter. Arriving, Xiao Er squinted and said: "Guest officer, it's not easy to have a meal in this town, so why choose salty food." The iron clothes were on fire, and Caiyu winked again and again before he suppressed it.

After dinner, the visitors in the lobby still gathered in twos and threes to sit in the hall, most of them went back to the guest room to sleep, Caiyu wondered: "Little brother, why do these guests rest so early, it's still early, Why don't you go out and walk around?"

The little girl didn't like Cheng Tieyi's right and left, but when Caiyu asked him, he was very attentive, and hurriedly said: "Miss, I don't know, our Changle Town has been plagued by wolves. After the plague, the town The male was dying and walking, and the wolf became more and more arrogant. I don’t know how many people have been injured in the past year. They often haunt at night. The back window killed the widow and the stupid son, and I went to see it, and the widow's heart, liver, and intestines were pulled out..."

Caiyu was shocked, and the sixth master coughed and said, "Second brother, you have to be more careful when you talk to the girl's family." The second son woke up so that what he said was wrong, and said with a smile: "What the master said is that this kind of Scary things, of course, are not easy to tell the ladies." Said and backed away embarrassingly.

After sitting for a while, all the irrelevant travelers returned to their rooms, and only the escorts were left in the lobby. Everyone was still sitting and talking, and Caiyu and Duan Lingluo talked about rouge, gouache, embroidery and tailoring, Guo Xu, Tie Yi, and Feng Ping chatted about old affairs in the Jianghu. The sixth master and the bodyguards were free, occupying a corner of the lobby to throw dice, laughing and drinking from time to time, but it was fun.

Just as I was getting excited, I suddenly heard a thunderstorm in the air. Not long after, I heard a strong wind outside the house, and then it started to rain. When there was a strong wind, the rain was blown across the hall by the wind, Xiao Er hurriedly went forward to lock the door, but he didn't know that the door wouldn't move, luckily two bodyguards came up and helped Xiao Er to lock the door rise.

When the rain came suddenly, everyone looked at each other, all amused, when they were about to speak, they suddenly heard the howling of wolves behind the inn, the howling sounded one after another, extremely shrill, the hairs on everyone's hairs stood on end, Xiao Er changed He said with a complexion: "I have to go and see if the latch in the back kitchen is good. It would be bad if you let the wolf in."

Feng Ping said with a smile: "This little boy is so nervous, with Lord Feng around, how can he make the beast arrogant here?"

Cheng Tieyi jokingly said: "If Xiao Er knows the name of Thunderbolt Flying Knife, why is he still busy locking the door? I'm afraid the front and rear doors will be wide open, so that Lord Feng can kill you." Smile.

While talking and joking, the howling of wolves outside was even louder, and they shouted and echoed from far and near, which made people's hair stand on end.Feng Ping suddenly had to untie the wine gourd around his waist, raised his neck and gulped down a big gulp, and said with a big laugh, "Guo Xu, sit down for a while, and wait for Lord Feng to go out to dispel the hostility of these rough-haired beasts." Guo Xu spoke, Feng Ping's dantian raised his breath, he jumped up between the beams and pillars, and jumped out of the wall window. When everyone reacted, Feng Ping's long laughter was already tens of feet away.

Guo Xu shook his head and smiled wryly, while Cheng Tieyi showed a happy attitude, teasing Caiyu on purpose: "Caiyu, Feng Ping will drag two wild wolves back later, don't be scared."

Guo Xu said with a smile: "In my opinion, he would carry wild wolves on his back like a backpack. When it comes to carrying wolves, I think of a story that the old man often told."

Duan Lingluo wondered: "Young Master Guo, tell me what the story is."

Guo Xu said: "It is said that there was a traveler who was doing business in the capital. One day someone from his hometown came to tell him that something happened at home and asked him to go home quickly. When the traveler heard this, he seemed anxious. I didn’t do it anymore, packed up my things and rushed home. I was in a hurry along the way. I missed the time to pick up the store. put his shoulders..."

Speaking of this, Guo Xu deliberately paused, and Duan Lingluo became excited when he heard it, and asked: "What do you say? Could it be that there are bad people who want to rob money?"

Guo Xu said: "When this man turned around, he met two faint green eyes, but it turned out that a wolf was on his back!" Speaking of this, Guo Xu suddenly widened his eyes, bared his teeth, and made a gesture to attack Duan Ling. Luo rushed over, Duan Lingluo turned pale with fright, grabbed Caiyu's sleeve and said, "Sister Caiyu, Young Master Guo bullied me." After speaking, her eye circles turned red.

Caiyu smiled and said: "Don't pay attention to him, I don't know how many times I was scared by him when I was young, Guo Xu, tossing and turning, it's still this story, you don't mind it."
