On the other side, Lin Xiaoze finished washing up, sat on the bed wearing a white obscene clothes and said, "Hey, doctor, do you sleep inside or outside?"

He Ming's eyelids twitched and said, "Anything you want."

Lin Xiaoze rolled his eyes, and knew it was this sentence. "Then I'll sleep inside, otherwise I'm afraid of falling in the middle of the night.

He Ming nodded, wiped his face with a cloth towel, got up and blew out the candles in the room, and walked towards the bed.

Lin Xiaoze said: "Hey... have you ever stayed in an inn?"

He Ming sat on the bed: "Of course, when my sister and I came to the capital from Liuzhou, we stayed in inns all the way."

Lin Xiaoze: "Oh, you also have a younger sister, how old is it?"

He Ming lay down and put on the quilt and said, "It's eleven, he's a sensible and obedient boy."

Lin Xiaoze also got into bed and said: "I have a younger brother who is also eleven years old, he was like a little girl at first, but later...his aunt died, he became very different from before, he wanted to be a different person."

He Mingdao: "Naturally, if people don't grow up after being hit, they will give up on themselves."

Lin Xiaoze said: "Well, it seems to make sense...Why is this pillow so hard, and the quilt also has a strange smell."

He Ming: "..."

Lin Xiaoze: "Hey, hello? Asleep? Hey... It's better to stay at home. The quilt is heavy and hard and not warm. Actually, I don't really want to come, but Dad said that if I stay in Beijing, I will embarrass him... I I don't want to embarrass him, and I don't want to give up the exam, but there are so many people in the exam room, if I don't do well in the exam, how can I tell Zhongxin Junqing and the others..."

He Ming: "..."

"Hey, stupid doctor? Are you really asleep? I'm a little cold, are you cold?"

He Ming: "..."

Lin Xiaoze: "How about the two of us covering each other with a quilt? We can keep warm, right?"

He Ming: "..."

Lin Xiaoze: "If you don't speak, I'll take it as your consent~" He gently lifted He Ming's quilt and moved over bit by bit.He Ming only felt a warm and soft body leaning towards him, and his whole body stiffened immediately.

Lin Xiaoze breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh~~ It's much warmer, go to sleep." After a while, he calmed down.

He Ming opened his eyes and looked sideways at the people around him, sighed and pulled the quilt over him, tucked the corners of the quilt, and he was still a child.

After a night without dreams, when Lin Xiaoze opened his eyes the next morning, he found himself lying in He Ming's arms, and his whole body felt bad immediately!Pu Leng got up at once, touched his body with both hands, and felt relieved when he saw that the clothes were neat.Remembering that I got into someone's bed last night, my face flushed immediately, and I got up lightly with my clothes in my arms, and went outside to put them on.

He Ming opened his eyes, stretched out his hands, rubbed his stiff arms and shook his head with a smile.In fact, he woke up a long time ago, but Lin Xiaoze was so sound asleep that he couldn't bear to wake up, seeing him get up, he also changed his clothes, the two of them left the guest room and the others were already sitting in the lobby.

Zhang Rui looked up at the two people upstairs and said with a smile: "We are still discussing, if the two of you don't get up again, we will throw you in Chongzhou."

Lin Xiaoze only felt his face was hot, he ran downstairs and sat down at the table, picked up a bowl of porridge and drank it, after drinking, he said: "Oh, this inn is really not a place for people to live, it feels like sleeping all night. Sore all over."

Zhang Rui: "You thought you were in the Lin Mansion? That's not too bad. In a few days, we won't go to the village or shop in the middle of the road, so we can only sleep in the carriage. Can you bear it then?"

Lin Xiaoze's face collapsed when he heard this, "Sleep in the car again?!" Zhang Rui smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

After breakfast, Uncle Han paid the money, the guards fed the horses and drove the carriage out, and everyone packed up their things and continued on their journey.

The weather today was bad and gloomy. A rain cloud came from the east and drifted to the northwest. At noon, it started to rain lightly. The spring rain was as thin as a cow's hair but it was really cool. Bai sneezed three or four times in succession.Zhang Rui heard it all in the car, and asked the guard driving the car.

The guard said: "There is still a small town thirty miles away. Let's hurry up and get there before sunset."

The weather was bad, the days were short and the nights came early, and it was completely dark when we arrived in the town. Even sitting in the carriage, Zhang Rui couldn't help shivering from the cold.

He hurriedly found a lighted inn and knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong... dong dong dong..." After knocking for a long time, the door was finally opened by an old man.The old man said impatiently: "It's full, you go to another house."

Zhang Rui hastily cupped his hands and said: "Old man, we have encountered wind and rain, and we are cold and hungry. What if we can't stay in the hotel first? I will give you more money."

The old man thought for a while, looked at Zhang Rui and said, "Come in."

After several people entered the inn, they immediately became much warmer. Duan Xiaobai and the guards were the worst, their bodies were soaked by the rain.

Zhang Rui asked the old man to boil a pot of ginger soup, and everyone drank it while it was hot.

After a while, the old man came out with a large pot of steaming ginger soup. Uncle Han hurriedly took it and put it on the table, and filled a large bowl one by one.

Zhang Rui: "Is there anything to eat, old man?"

The old man stood by and looked at it for a while and said: "There are only some noodles. If you don't dislike it, I will cook it for you. My young man, I see that you don't look like businessmen coming and going. I don't know why this dark night came to us Come to Qingyun Town?"

Zhang Ruidao: "We are going to Tongzhou... to inherit the ancestral business. My ancestor's line has been cut off, and there is no one to take care of the family business. Let's go back and have a look."

Uncle Han suppressed a smile, the lineage of his ancestors had been cut off, didn't he mean the animals in Xuzhou?

The old man nodded and said: "Then I advise you to leave early tomorrow after tonight, this Qingyun Town... is not peaceful."

Zhang Rui frowned and said, "The old man might as well talk about it in detail."

The old man sighed and sat on the stool next to him and said: "Since the year before last, passers-by who have been doing business in Qingyun Town have often died on the second day... by the small river five miles outside the town... It has been a long time since Qingyun Town came. I have passed outsiders, the inn is the shelter of the old, if it is not like this, it would have been closed long ago. Today I see that it is raining outside and I will keep you for one night. After today, you can take care of yourself." After finishing speaking, he shook his head and turned to the back go.

Zhang Rui nodded, got up and walked around the inn, then squinted his eyes and said softly: "He Ming..."

He Ming: "What's the matter, son?"

Zhang Rui: "Do you have that special spirit medicine after taking it? Or something that relieves Mongolian sweat."

He Ming was stunned and said: "Yes, I don't know why the young master wants this thing?"

Zhang Rui: "Come on, let me have a look."

He Ming rummaged through the baggage strangely, took out a small box from it, and said: "This thing doesn't taste very good, you might as well open it after eating."

Zhang Rui nodded, put the box into his sleeve, and after a while the old man came with a pot of good Yangchun noodles. "No one has come to the inn for a long time, and there is nothing else to eat, only noodles. Don't be disgusted, everyone."

Everyone filled up the noodles and started to eat, but Zhang Rui didn't eat it. Lin Xiaoze lost his appetite after a glance, so he took out a box of eight pieces of fruit from the bag, and started to eat by himself.

Zhang Rui walked up to him, took two pieces and put them in his mouth. They were sweet and greasy, and he really didn't like the taste.

Lin Xiaoze raised his head and said, "Ruier, do you still eat? If you want to eat me, I also have beef jerky, Bazhen fruit, donkey rolling, glutinous rice cake..."

Zhang Rui: "...Why did you bring so much food when you go out?"

Lin Xiaoze smiled and said, "The mountains are so high and the road is so far away, I won't be able to eat desserts from Kyoto in the future, so I'll eat more while I'm here."

Zhang Rui laughed, it seemed that his little cousin was in a good mood.

After dinner, the old man took the candlestick and led the people to the backyard. The backyard is a row of guest rooms connected by a long corridor outside.

The old man: "I clean the house every day and it's pretty clean. You guys should go to bed early." After speaking, he left tremblingly with a candlestick in his hand.Everyone still entered the house as yesterday.

As soon as the old man left, Zhang Rui took out the small box that He Ming gave him from his cuff, and when he opened it, the stench rose to the sky, almost killing him.

Uncle Han next to him was also blindsided by the smell, and hurriedly said: "Young master, what is this, why is it so foul-smelling!"

Zhang Rui pinched his nose and said, "Don't worry about this, Uncle Han, smell it to wake up your mind, I'll show this to others."

Uncle Han obeyed his instructions, took a breath towards the box, and immediately spat it out with his stomach churning.

Zhang Rui closed the box and said, "I'll go to other people's rooms first." He said and left the room.

Just after going out for a short walk, my neck suddenly hurt, and I was hit hard, and my eyes went dark and I passed out.The man grabbed Zhang Rui's skirt and dragged him to a room at the end of the corridor.Pushing open the door, he said in a hoarse voice, "Let's begin..."

The lights went out from room to room, and Uncle Han sat in the room and waited for a long while but no one came back. He was a little worried when he suddenly heard a shout: "Help!!!" He hurriedly got up and pushed open the door. With a knife in one hand, the man's body immediately softened and stopped moving. Uncle Han took a closer look, isn't the person on the ground Lin Xiaoze? !My heart skipped a beat, thinking that the young master might be taken away.

"Come here! Help!..." Uncle Han panicked and had no choice but to shout, hoping to wake up the guards.But after calling several times, no one else could be heard.

Lao Han was startled, those guards were probably also tricked.This is how to do?What a coincidence!What kind of fate, young master, happened to encounter such a thing on the road!

The gangsters heard the shouts and wanted to kill. Three or four people came towards Uncle Han with knives. What to do!Although he has a little kung fu, his fists are no match for his four feet, and these gangsters all have murder weapons in their hands.Looking around, there was really nothing in the house that could be used as a weapon, so I had to pick up the thin stool and hold it tightly in my hands, looking at the knocked door, swallowing dryly.

"Bump! Bump!" Those people bumped more and more fiercely, and the broken wooden door was knocked loose after a few hits. If you die, you can die. Before you die, you have to be buried with him.He raised his stool and rushed towards the three gangsters.

Those three people also had the kung fu to get close to each other. They separated Uncle Han's stool with a knife and kicked them to the ground.Uncle Han held his chest and coughed dryly twice, feeling a fishy sweetness in his mouth.Now that his skills are not as good as others, he can only kill with his neck, and close his eyes in despair.

"Kang Dang!" The knife didn't land on Uncle Han, but fell to the ground.Uncle Han opened his eyes and saw three or four men in black came in at some point in front of him. The men in black were highly skilled in martial arts, and within half a cup of tea, they took care of the three of them, tapped their acupoints one by one, and left in a hurry.

Uncle Han hurriedly got up and ran out of the house towards the room at the end of the corridor. When he opened the door, he saw the old man holding a stick and looking at the person lying on the ground.Sure enough, this group of people were drugged!

Uncle Han got angry from his heart, and kicked the old man in the chest, kicking him half to death.Pull Zhang Rui out from under the crowd.The young master is already unconscious, what should I do? !

It suddenly occurred to him that the reason why he was not drugged might be because the young master smelt that smelly thing for him, so he hurriedly searched for Zhang Rui, and he found the small box.

As soon as the box was opened, the stench spread immediately, causing Uncle Han's eyes to burst into tears. When he put it under Zhang Rui's nose, he coughed a few times and opened his eyes, still a little overwhelmed.

Seeing that it was effective, Uncle Han hurriedly smoked it next to each other. Everyone slowly woke up. When the guards saw something bad, they got up quickly but felt their legs were weak and sat back on the ground.

Zhang Rui felt better because he had smelled it before, Lin Xiaoze woke up and spit it out directly on the ground "Wow".While vomiting, he wailed: "What kind of smell is this! It's killing my young master!"

He Ming also woke up and realized that everyone had been tricked, this shop is probably a black shop!Targeting the passing merchants, killing people and getting more goods!

Duan Xiaobai: "My lord, what should I do now?"

Zhang Ruidao: "Uncle Han, how did you come here? Where are those gangsters?"

Uncle Han said: "Just now I was besieged by three gangsters, and suddenly some black-clothed men broke in, and the black-clothed men tapped the gangsters' acupoints and left. I came here to find you."

Zhang Rui thought in his heart: I'm afraid those men in black are the secret guards Zhou Yin gave him. It's a good thing to have them this time, otherwise he would fall on the road before reaching Tongzhou.
