"Yes!" Zhu Yi stopped the carriage in front of the inn. The outside of the inn looked shabby and the plaque could not be seen at all. There was only a cloth towel with "Sifang Inn" written on it hanging outside, indicating that this was an inn.
Zhu Yi walked up and knocked on the door. After a long time, the door of the inn was half opened.
"Who are you?" a man dressed as a waiter asked vigilantly. He was slightly fat and had a dark complexion, and did not look like a waiter at all.
"We are just passing by. We have been traveling for days. My master is not feeling well and wants to rest here for a few days. Young man, is there any vacant room in this inn?"
The guy looked at Zhuyi with some suspicion: "How many of you are there?"
"Not many, including the eight of us." Zhu Yizhi didn't notice anything unusual about County Ning, and said in a serious tone.
"Then you wait." The waiter closed the door again after saying this. Zhu Yi had to go to the carriage and wait. He felt as if someone was looking at him through the window.
After a while, the door of the inn was opened again, and the waiter came over: "Our boss said that there are still rooms in the inn, and you can stay for a few days."
"Master, please get off the carriage quickly. We have a place to stay." Zhu Yiyi looked quite surprised.
䀱䋢 Yanqing got off the carriage first, then stretched out his hand and helped Su Chenyu get off the carriage.
In order to avoid exposing their identities, they specially rented three ordinary horse-drawn carriages. Judging from the appearance of the carriages, the guy probably wasn't a wealthy man.
But when he saw someone getting off the carriage, he suddenly became alert.
Among these eight people, except for an old woman, the other seven were all young people, especially the last two people who got off the carriage, whose appearance was particularly outstanding.
Su Chenyu was wearing a cloak. Since she got off the carriage, she had been leaning against Yan Qing, coughing once or twice from time to time. She looked like a frail beauty.
"Is the lady not feeling well?" The waiter wanted to help Su Chenyu, but was stopped by Li Mucheng: "Why don't you take us in quickly?"
When the waiter saw that they had Su Chenyu guarding them, he knew that he would not gain any advantage, so he had to lead them into the inn's gate first.
When they entered the inn, they found that it was shabby both inside and out.
The shopkeeper was an old man who was not very agile and had a short stature. When he took them to the room, Zhu Yi suspected that he would collapse from exhaustion in the next second.
Su Chenyu booked four rooms, two people in one, so that they could take care of each other.
Entering the room, Su Chenyu found that there was not much dust in it. It seemed that someone had lived there recently and it was very clean.
"Madam, this is the best room in our inn, specially reserved for you and your husband." The old shopkeeper reminded, "If you use water, there is a well in the backyard. Meals are not included here. If you want to eat, you can pay more for the meal, or you can cook it yourself and pay for the firewood."
䀱䋢 Yanqing responded and then asked, "Is there a pharmacy in this town? My wife is a little sick, and I want to ask a doctor to take a look."
The old shopkeeper glanced at Su Chenyu and said, "The medicine shop is close to here, but no one dares to go out during the day, so we have to wait until night."
"I just wanted to ask why there is no one on the street here. It took us a long time to find this inn."
"There are bandits near Ning County. They like to go down the mountain during the day. Everyone can only hide at home during the day and come out at night." The old shopkeeper explained for a while, "You guys rest first. I'll ask my men to invite a doctor over at night."
The old shopkeeper said as he walked out, turned around and closed the door, but his eyes lingered on Su Chenyu vaguely, with a greedy light flashing in his eyes...
