Chapter 4 Desert Inn

The desert sand is like snow, and Yanshan is like a moon.

Thousands of miles across the flat sand, the high-hanging crescent moon casts silver-white light on the desert, and in the night, it looks like white snow.

A group of more than ten people, the horseshoes kicked up the sand and dust, and the momentum was mighty. Under the black and bright stars, there was an unspeakable throbbing and chilling aura.

The horse team is galloping, and the sand is flying thousands of miles.The leader was a strong monk with a bald head, bare shoulders and wearing an earring. His face looked particularly unkind. There was no peace between the brows of a monk, but a hostility, which was really compelling.

Followed by a short three-inch man who could barely step on the stirrups, compared with a tall horse with a green mane, he looked even more short and shabby, with only a pair of bright eyes matching his pointed head , just like a rat.The appearance of the brows and eyes is wretched and fierce.

Comparing the tall and short statures of the two leaders, it can be seen that this group of people is mixed, and the mixed army looks like a bandit.

It's just that among the group of people, there are three people who keep a certain distance from the rest, and their clothes are also very different.The leader of the three was dressed in dark blue simple clothes, with a waist and sleeves for easy movement, and a smoke-colored veil covering his face to cover up the wind and sand.This person has a pair of piercing eyes, and his evil spirit is restrained very well, like a sword hidden in its sheath!

Behind this person is a white dress that is very obvious in the night wind and sand, with wide sleeves spun with delicate bamboo leaf patterns, handsome with a dusty temperament, which looks even more refined in this wind and sand.The hat of the cloak covered this person's appearance, but there was an indescribably clear and cold in his demeanor.

Obviously these three people form a group, the leader and the adjournment are the guards of the white-clothed man, the adjournment is dressed almost the same as the leader, they all have a sharp and capable posture, and they also have chilling eyes, just like Goshawk in general.

An orange-yellow light gradually became visible ahead.A flag was swaying in the wind and sand, bringing out the sound of the wind.It seems to be a word "stack".

The sound of the cavalry was heard from a distance in the inn, and the second brother came out to have a look, and shouted inside: "The shopkeeper has a guest!" He looked eagerly at the group of people.

As the horse team gradually approached, Xiao Er's face changed, and fear was revealed in his eyes.In this desert, we have never seen anyone who looks like us, and fierce bandits are not a rare species.Xiaoer, who had seen countless people, saw this group of people approaching, and knew that there was nothing wrong with him. His face turned blue, and he let out a bad luck.

It's just that when the horse team approached, he immediately changed his face, and greeted him with a smile, obediently, appearing extremely respectful and enthusiastic.

"Xiao Er has fed the horses of the Sa family, and you will certainly be rewarded for the reward." The strong monk whipped his whip in the air, bringing out a biting wind, which frightened the younger brother to nod his head in agreement.

The man in white glanced over coldly, his lips were not pursed, with a look of disgust on his face.At this time, the guard who was the leader among the three got off his horse, and his movements were free and easy.I saw the hero-like guard knelt on one knee in front of the dark cloud and snow-covered BMW, bent down, and flattened his back, as if he was a horse stool.

Rao, Xiaoer, who had seen the big scene, was also stunned, and looked at the beautiful horse in a daze, and then moved his gaze up, and saw a white dress, the texture of silk was very gorgeous, and there were very few people in the desert. Seeing such a fine satin, I longed for the dress with some reluctance for a while.

In an instant, the man in white turned over and got off the horse again, his movements were chic and graceful, his clothes fluttering in the wind, as if he was a heavenly being.I have never seen such a handsome man in this desert. Although he was wrapped in a gauze and couldn't even see his face clearly, Xiao Er knew that he must be a very good-looking man, because his hand holding the whip was as white as the proprietress's wrist. Like jade on it.That object is the darling of the proprietress, he has touched it secretly, and it is very slippery.

The second brother was thinking wildly, his eyes were staring, when he heard the sound of a cracking wind in the air, his arm hurt, he let out a dry howl, quite heart-piercing.

"What are the thieves looking at? Don't you want your head?" It was the vicious monk who whipped people.

Xiao Er's small eyes were so frightened that they could condense tears.

At this time, there was a shout from the door, and a woman's voice sounded: "What are the wolves roaring at night? You don't understand the rules, little door?" The woman in floral satin glared at the second brother, and then turned to the fierce monk. His eyes were full of spring, and he smiled again and again: "Hey, where are you from, the objective ones, honored guests, honored guests, please come inside."

The bell-like laughter of the proprietress defuses a possible violent incident.Only then did the great monk calm down, dismounted from his horse and walked up to the white-clothed snow-clothed man, made a "please" gesture, and bowed slightly to appear extremely respectful: "Please."

The handsome man didn't even look at him, his cold eyes scanned the inn, and he frowned slowly.The inns in the desert are simple, and the houses made of sand and dirt give people an unclean feeling.

The great monk frowned. The young master of Shenxue Palace, who was dressed in brocade, always went out with beauties in fragrant cars, extravagant and ostentatious. Of course, this deserted inn could not catch his eyes.But this is already the only inn in a thousand miles, so I feel a little anxious for a while.

However, the man in white pursed his lips. Although he frowned, he walked in without a cold voice.

The great monk immediately let out a sigh, and finally his heart fell.

The light of the fire is orange, and a brazier is burning in the hall, making the hall very bright.Inside the inn, there were six tables, and there were only three people sitting there. One table was a bearded man dressed as a businessman and his servants, and the other was a desert "Yingjie" holding a sword.

The man in white clothes was not in a hurry to sit down, he scanned the scene in the lobby, and when he finished looking around, the subordinate who took out a clean cloth towel from his arms had already wiped the tables and stools.The white-clothed man reluctantly sat down, frowning without any sign of letting go.But the two guards did not sit next to him.Standing only behind him, his figure is as straight as a sword.

The big monk and the little man didn't sit with the man in white, they occupied the remaining three tables.

The proprietress smiled, and approached the table of the white-clothed man coquettishly, she saw the dignity, she was not in a hurry to flirt with the fierce monk, and asked the white-clothed boy softly: "What do you want, sir? We have freshly roasted whole sheep here, the aroma..."

"Qingshui." Qingyue's voice sounded, interrupting the coquettish voice of the proprietress. It seemed a bit incompatible with this khaki-yellow house, like a trickling stream of beautiful streams and mountains.

In fact, there was another person in the lobby, who was lying on the soft bunk behind the counter, happily stealing the good wine from the proprietress.When I heard the voice of the man in white, I was taken aback for a moment, and secretly praised: "It sounds so good."

Obviously, his "dark praise" did not reflect the true meaning of "darkness". Outside the house, the wind slammed the door, and the house was still quiet. With his praise, the lobby became even quieter.

The people at the big monk's table suddenly stared round, is this going to do something?The proprietress became anxious all of a sudden, what should I do if so many people smashed the shop?

"Which one doesn't have long eyes?" The short, squirrel-eyed man yelled.Among the group of people, he looked the most sinister.

At the table with him was a pale and sickly thin man who hadn't coughed since he entered the door, and even the hand holding the teapot to pour water was shaking, as if he was dying.

I just heard him say: "Second boy, cough cough...don't bark, just direct, cough cough direct..." While speaking, the cup in his hand was suddenly thrown out, and for a moment, a spirit that seemed to be returning to the light appeared on the sickly face Come on.The cup was extremely fast, and it only took a blink of an eye. Before the unsuspecting people could see what a hidden weapon it was, the cup passed through the half-meter-thick counter and hit the person behind the counter.

The counter was smashed into a round hole, and there was a sound of poof, which was very scary.The proprietress screamed out of fright, but before her screams stopped, a person whirled out from behind the counter, and that stretched out his hand was really handsome.

The man immediately landed on the counter and sat cross-legged, holding a wine jar in his arms, with a smile on his face, he was naughty and mean.

"Cough cough cough...Second brother, isn't this out?" The blue color in the eyes of the man with the medicine jar has deepened. He is terminally ill and dying, but he is quite bluffing.

"Pharmaceutical jar, don't be brave when you're about to die, just be honest, so you don't have to rely on me if you die." The dwarf mouse snorted unconvinced.Then the dwarf mouse gave a pooh, jumped off the stool, and looked at the people on the counter with a grin on his face.

"Oh, you are a dying person in charge, you have been envious of these heroes all day long, and you have learned such a trick from an old lunatic who owes money to drink, you should treat yourself as a hero of Lao Shizi, damn it, offend If you are an honored guest, you will die as soon as you die, how can you implicate our whole family?" The proprietress took out a silk scarf from nowhere, and ran over crying, wiping her tears and slapping her thighs, grabbing the boy for a meal Fake cry.

In an instant, the boy touched his nose embarrassingly, with a look of embarrassment to death, as if he was looking for a hole to drill.He lost all air, and his face was still a little blue.

The dwarf mouse looked amusing, and his anger disappeared, and he just yelled: "Little lady, the new widow is the most delicious, why don't you wait until your son dies, and have fun with the uncle?"

"Bah, bah, who wants to date you? I, Zheng Sanniang, am a fierce woman, how can I let you splash dirty water!" The woman yelled, and everyone laughed in the lobby.

There were three people who didn't smile. Not only did they not smile, but there was also a look of disgust in their eyes.A guard wiped the three cups clean with a handkerchief, then picked up a kettle and threw it out, barely passing the short mouse's eyes, turned around and landed firmly on the table.

"Shopkeeper, clear water." said the guard who threw the teapot.

Another guard added: "Wash the teapot three times first."

All of a sudden, the dwarf mouse's eyes shot out a terrifying murderous look, which was extremely ferocious. It looked a bit like the scary statues of ghosts and gods in mountain temples.

The big monk pulled him hastily and gave him a silencing look. The short man took a few breaths before he calmed down and was dragged back to his position by the big monk.

The rest of the people looked at the two guards with particularly unfriendly eyes.

The kid with the wine turned his eyes to the dwarf, and then turned to the three people headed by the man in white, with a playful look in his eyes.

The proprietress saw that these people were not easy to mess with, so she took the teapot to wash it herself, and gave Xiao Er a look, and the clever Xiao Er immediately greeted the guests with a smile on his face.

At this moment, the bald monk thought for a quarter of an hour, and finally stood up and walked in front of the man in white with a look of embarrassment.

The man in white was facing the counter sideways, so the kid in front of the counter only saw a silhouette, but praised in his heart: "The eyelashes are so long."

"Shaogong...Young Master, the reckless people don't understand the rules, please... forgive me." The great monk said hesitantly.

Suddenly, the kid on the counter narrowed his eyes, showing a bit of surprise, and seemed to be more interested. He never thought that the monk was not as rough as he appeared on the surface, but his mind was still a little delicate.You can't tell what you look like.

The man in white didn't speak, and even looked at him sparingly, he just gave a vague "hmm".

Those ten or so were vicious and looked displeased, but they didn't say much.Obviously the man in white has some background.

At this time, the man in white turned around and looked at the boy on the counter, and a Qingyue voice sounded: "Boss?"

The kid touched his nose in embarrassment, but he didn't deny it.

"Qinggong is good. I heard..." The amber eyes turned, shining with streamer light, which looked brilliant, "Longyunzhai has a move called 'Youlong in the sky', which is also so chic and elegant, like a flying dragon in the sky. God, do whatever you want."

The amber eyes suddenly brightened, colorful, with a cold air, appearing awe-inspiring.

At this time, the people at these tables all cast their eyes on this kid.

I only heard the kid burst out laughing, and raised his head triumphantly: "Really? So my qinggong is so good? Hehehe."

He laughed loudly and presumptuously, and the monks were a little uncertain for a while.

"Boy, are you from Longyun Village?!" The great monk roared like a bell.

"Do I look like that?" The boy asked with a smile.

"Head of the family, stop bragging, don't be so shabby for Longyunzhai. No matter how bad it is, he will be the leader of the 36 villages alliance, and you are still related to Longyunzhai just like a drunkard?" Xiaoer answered with disdain in his eyes He glanced at the wine jar in his hand.

The boy curled his lips, but did not refute.

Only then did the ten or so people restrain themselves and sit down again.

At this moment, the quack who was in the inn suddenly drew his sword and shouted: "Ten villains! I recognized you from the moment you entered the door, 'Hua Monk' Lu Kun, 'Drilling Rat' Sun Qian , Fu Shuqing, a 'sick and dead man'... today I will act for the heavens!"

He said that the sky was full of sword light like rain, so it was "Thousand Swords Chanting" with one hand, and he really heard a buzzing sound, it was the sword chanting!

"Wow!" The boy on the counter jumped down immediately when he saw that something was going wrong, and hid behind the cabinet with half of his head exposed, looking timid.The little girl was lying in the corner trembling, chattering like "chanting a mantra".

"Ouch!" The proprietress came out from the backyard, and when she saw Jian Guang at first glance, she was so frightened that she threw the teapot out!

At this time, one of the guards made a sword out of nowhere, and the shadows of multiple people swayed past. In the blink of an eye, it seemed that he was standing there without moving a bit, but there was an extra teapot in his hand.

The guard poured water into the cup of the man in white.His expression didn't change, he was even interested in watching people challenge the ten villains.

Those ten people were indeed the Ten Old Freaks of Tongzhou known as the "Ten Evil Men": Monk Hua, the short man, the dead man, the thief, the scorpion feeder, the long tongue ghost, the old hunchback, the toothless woman, the man in the iron mask, and the hook hand.

It was the shortest gopher who was the most irascible.I saw him holding a pair of drills in his hand, shrinking his body and disappearing. Looking again, there was a hole in the ground, which looked like a mouse hole. It was extremely small, and it didn't seem like a human could pass through it at all.

The knight's expression froze, and he raised his sword and stabbed at the cave. It was like a game of whack-a-mole for a while. Many mouse holes were drilled in the good ground, and the knight hacked a lot of furniture in a rage.The proprietress almost gritted her teeth.

"Come on, come on, boy, I'll kill you!" cried the gopher, deftly.No matter how small a person is, can he go through a mouse hole?No one saw his agile speed, only saw him crawling around, and no one knew how he got into the mouse hole.

That scene was instantly horrifying!

The knight ignored the gopher in a fit of rage,
