The prince is very fierce

The baby had been scared away, and Xu Buling couldn't argue with Nightingale. He immediately stood up and walked to the window facing the street, raising his hand to open the window.

Hua Hua Hua——

The sound of wind and rain suddenly became louder. Looking up, Fenglingdu Town outside the window was shrouded in night and heavy rain. The lights in the town were sparse, and only the lanterns outside the inn and wine shop were swaying in the wind and rain.

Xu Bulingchao's inn is near the Guimenguan Archway. Through the weak lights outside the inn, you can vaguely see a figure leading a horse towards the big white sign. Because of the heavy rain, the figure disappears and appears, as if wandering in the night. A ghost among them.

At the window next door, the little nightingale was lying on the window with her upper body popping up, and said seriously:

"Sir, from the day we arrived until now, a total of 542 people have passed through the gate of hell, and this is the only one who has come back. Is it so difficult to run around?"

Xu Buring sat on the window and took a sip from the wine gourd:

"Traveling in the Jianghu is a knife-edge licking blood, but there are not so few people who can finish it. Fenglingdu is located near Chang'an. Jianghu people will definitely come to hang out when they are young and have just left the mountain. After a few years of wandering in the Jianghu, Xianyi The thought of "An Angry Horse Fighting a Sword in the End of the World" has basically been worn away, and he is just running around in the world just to make a living. Naturally, he will not care about these things when he lives safely until he is old. He will have seen everything in his life, and his interests will be the same as when he was young. There were even fewer people running over to go through the process, so we only saw people leaving and not people coming back.”

Nightingale nodded thoughtfully, looking at the increasingly clear figure holding the horse and standing in front of the archway, hesitating, and said softly: "Coming here in the rain at night, I'm definitely not just going through the motions of seeing all the different aspects of life. Regarding this, it may be that young people who are not experienced in the world have encountered some setbacks and no longer want to be involved in the world, so they came here, right?"

Xu Buring chuckled lightly: "I'm not a god, how could I know that? But if I stood under the archway for so long without stepping over, I must be still worried and hesitating."

"oh……"

Nightingale lay at the window and watched for a while, patiently waiting for the figure to decide to cross the archway, then took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and threw it at the inn door below.

The waiter, who was sleeping soundly on the threshold, was shocked by the impact. He quickly stood up and was about to curse, when he saw the broken silver on the ground. His expression suddenly became extremely pleasant. He picked it up and looked up:

"Oh, you two gentlemen, if you need anything, just say hello..."

Nightingale pointed at the big archway in the center of the square: "There is someone staying in the hotel, why don't you go and say hello."

The waiter was stunned for a moment, then looked around and realized that there were people walking at night in the square. He quickly picked up an umbrella from the gate and ran over to solicit customers.

After Nightingale finished directing the waiter, she turned her head and smiled: "Master, do you want to hear a story?"

Xu Buring looked at the wine gourd in his hand, shrugged slightly, jumped out of the window, straightened his clothes a little, and walked down the stairs with Nightingale.

Nightingale walked behind Xu Buling, raised her eyes and took a look. Suddenly she took out a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Xu Buling:

"Master, please wipe your face, Sister Xiang'er has chewed it..."

He spoke very seriously, without any shyness.

Xu Buling blushed, took the handkerchief to wipe off the rouge on his face, and came to the lobby of the inn.

In the middle of the night, the tenants and the shopkeeper had all gone to bed. It was raining and cold in late autumn, and there was a brazier burning in the lobby. It was quiet and no one was there.

Nightingale glanced around, then suddenly raised her hand and pointed to the beam of the lobby:

"Sir, there is a bird there!"

Xu Buling looked up and saw that there was indeed a little sparrow squatting there in the darkness above the beams. The one that was motionless must have fallen asleep.

"It's raining so hard. Birds also know how to take shelter. It's not surprising."

Xu Buling and Nightingale were sitting across from each other at the wine table next to the brazier. After a while, the waiter led a man wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat into the inn. He looked up and saw Xu Buling coming down and greeted him politely:

"Are you two gentlemen hungry? The cooks have all gone to bed. Would you like me to cook two bowls of noodles first?"

Xu Buling was really hungry, so he nodded: "Two bowls of scallion and egg noodles, and warm a pot of wine."

"Okay."

The waiter put down his umbrella and ran to the kitchen diligently.

The man who followed in took off his coir raincoat and bamboo hat and hung them outside the door. He also said:

"Can the store cook me a bowl, please? Just bring me a pot of rice wine."

"Okay."

After the man finished speaking, he sat down at the wine table on the other side of the brazier and toasted his wet trouser legs and sleeves.

Xu Buling turned his head and glanced. The man was about thirty, tall, wearing tight-fitting shorts, wristbands and leggings on his hands and feet. There was a knife hanging on the back of his waist. He was about two feet long and wrapped in black cloth. The dress didn't look shabby, but the expression on his face was a little lonely. After sitting down, he stared at the brazier without saying anything.

Xu Buling turned around and showed a slight smile:

"Brother, why did you come here so late?"

Fenglingdu is relatively close to the capital and belongs to a stable area. The man raised his eyes and took a look. He saw a frail scholar and a little maid. He didn't show any guarded expression. He just shook his head and smiled:

"It's raining too much and it's hard to walk."

Nightingale looked like an innocent little maid and said doubtfully:

"There are resting inns everywhere around Fenglingdu. If it rains heavily, you can find a place to stay for one night. Your clothes will get wet."

When the man heard this, he fell silent for a while and sighed softly:

"I am a wanderer. If I don't want to run away, I will come here and visit the hell gate. It will be considered a beginning and an end, otherwise I won't be able to sleep."

Xu Buling said "oh" and chuckled:

"I heard that the knights in the martial arts world are very comfortable in their bright clothes and angry horses. Looking at my physique, I guess I am also a good player in the martial arts world. Why don't you run away?"

While talking, the waiter came over with three bowls of noodles and two jugs of wine and placed them on the two tables.

The man picked up the chopsticks, put them down again, poured a bowl of rice wine, drank it all in one gulp, and wiped his mouth:

"Brother seems to be a scholar. He takes it for granted. There is nothing easy to do in this world, and there are few who can feel comfortable."

Xu Buring smiled softly and poured a bowl of wine by himself:

"I, Xu Shan, took my maid out to study abroad, but I am really yearning for the world. What my brother said is different from what I have read in books before."

Nightingale held the large noodle bowl and nodded seriously: "Yes, the book says that people in the world come and go and do whatever they want. How can you feel uncomfortable?"

The man may have been holding back a lot of words alone, but when he met two young birds who yearned for the world, he was also provoked to talk. Then he shook his head and sighed:

"Things written in the book are all for coaxing little kids. I, Zhang Ding, have been in the world for a short time, but I have also traveled thousands of miles and seen many scenes. There is nothing interesting about this world, just two words. ——Eat people!”

When Xu Buling heard this, his interest was really aroused. He also held the noodle bowl and looked at the man opposite:

"Brother, why did you say this?"
