Fortunately, the accommodation is not far away, just next to Baishui Town.
When she arrived at the entrance of the post station, even though she was mentally prepared, Xie Ling's brows still twitched when she saw the dilapidated thatched huts that could collapse at any time.
Leader Shen raised his hand and pointed to the inn nearby, “If you don’t want to stay at the post station, you can stay at the inn nearby and pay the money yourself.”
Xie Ling suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the post station was built in such a shabby state. It turned out that it was to attract business for the inn.
Leader Shen continued: “You are exiled as commoners, and the rules are not very strict. You can act on your own tonight to buy some clothes and food. You just need to report to the officials.
We will set out on time at noon tomorrow. You won't have to wear prison clothes once you leave the capital. If you have the means, you can buy a carriage. The journey is long and the mountains are high, so you can consider it on your own."
After saying that, Leader Shen couldn't wait to lead his two trusted men away.
The wine at Feihong Tower is the best, and he has been craving for it for a long time.
The remaining officers all looked resentful, "Boss, remember to bring us a few jars of good wine and a few dozen pounds of roast beef!"
The Gu family was not short of money, so they went directly to Lai Fu Inn next to the post station.
As soon as they arrived at the door, a waiter came up to greet them with a cheerful face. He did not show any disrespect to them because they were wearing prison uniforms. "Sir, there are a lot of people coming to Baishui Town today. The guest rooms are overcrowded. Only the top-grade rooms are left. The price is ten times the usual price. Do you want to stay here?"
Xie Ling thought to herself that this inn was really good at raising the price, and nodded with a pained look on her face.
Of course we can live in a good place if we can, we have money.
The waiter smiled like a chrysanthemum, "Okay! I'll help you carry your things up!"
As they walked up the stairs, Xie Ling couldn't help but ask, "May I ask which important person came to Baishui Town today? Why are there so many people?"
The waiter raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "The people who came are living gods! The living gods haven't been to Beijiang Country for ten years. The last time they appeared was in the capital of Chuyue Country. I didn't expect that they would come to our Baishui Town as soon as they came to Beijiang! Oh! What does this mean? Our Baishui Town has good feng shui. Even the living gods have come!"
"Living immortal?" The original owner had no memory of this concept.
Seeing Xie Ling's confusion, Pei explained, "It is Mingyue Island, one of the four major sects. The four major sects are independent of the seven countries. Among them, Mingyue Island is famous for its medical skills. The medical skills are so superb that they can revive the dead. The whereabouts of the people on the island are erratic, so they are called living gods by the world."
Xie Ling nodded in understanding, somewhat interested.
Medical skills?
She did wonder how medical techniques in this era differed from those in her time.
She pulled the waiter's sleeve and asked, "Excuse me, where are the people from Mingyue Island?"
The waiter waved his hand and said, "Don't even think about it, young lady. There are tens of thousands of people coming to consult you, and you won't be able to get anything."
"I'll just go and see the fun."
The waiter scratched his head and said, "Well, tonight we're at the West Wind Building, the tallest building in Baishui Town."
———
On the official road from the capital to Baishui Town, a sedan chair with the word "Thank you" engraved on it was moving slowly.
In the sedan chair, Xie Yunyan looked gloomy even though she was wearing a veil.
She grabbed the wig leather cover tightly, thinking that she must ask the people from Mingyue Island to heal her face and long hair!
