Chapter 334: Inn on the Snowy Road
This winter, it snowed several times in various parts of Daxia, as if they had "discussed" it privately.
A heavy snowstorm swept across Zhengzhou and lasted for several days.
Not to mention the secluded paths, even on the wide official roads, the snow was so deep that an ordinary man's ankles could be buried in it, and walking on the snow made a rustling sound.
But with such heavy snow and thick snow, it was really not suitable for traveling.
therefore
Naturally, there were quite a few people gathering in those inns on the side of the official road.
The name of this inn is "Tongfu". The owner of the inn welcomes everyone. Even if there are no guest rooms, he still accepts guests into the lobby. As long as the guests are willing, he is happy to give them a roll of bedding and let them sleep on the floor. It is better than sleeping in the open air in such a heavy snowstorm. And if you spend the night in such a heavy snowstorm, God will take you away!
In the lobby, there were juggling troupes, monks of all ages, chivalrous knights, and ordinary merchants passing by.
The laughter and playfulness made the whole inn lively.
In a remote corner, Lu Cai was sitting on the ground nonchalantly, with a knife and a sword beside him.
Lu Cai's clothes were just ordinary cotton-padded clothes, not luxurious. After leaving the village, he specially bought them in the town next to the village. The reason was also to avoid trouble. A child of his age would easily be noticed if he wore too comfortably when traveling.
That's why Lu Caicai made himself like this.
It’s not that I’m afraid of trouble, but I just want to get to Raojiang as soon as possible, finish my work, and then return to the palace!
As for the swords and knives beside him, they were from the letter sent to him by the Empress that Lu Cai received through the spies of the Shen Ce Palace in the previous town.
In the letter, the empress told him that when he travels around the world, he should remember to carry a sword with him, so that he can look majestic and handsome!
So Lu Cai ran to the blacksmith shop and got the cheapest sword, but when he thought about it carefully, the queen used a knife, so Lu Cai actually wanted to hang a knife on his body.
But the empress told him in the letter to get a sword, so after thinking it over, Lu decided to get both of them. He wouldn't be able to use them anyway, so it didn't matter how many he had.
He was sitting on the ground, with the innkeeper's daughter next to him. She had just seen him come in through the wind and snow, and she brought him a blanket, asking him to put it on to avoid catching a cold.
Lu Cai thanked her and remembered the girl who was quite good-looking.
Many of the martial arts people over there looked at Lu Cai, after all, he was carrying a sword. But after a closer look, they found that they could not see Lu Cai's strength at all. They thought that he was probably another young man holding a sword, pretending to be a martial arts hero.
At this time.
A gangster who came back from the backyard after relieving himself said, "Damn it, it's getting heavier and heavier. I don't know if it will stop tomorrow."
The people at the same table laughed and said, "We can't stop, so let's stay here first. Anyway, our group came out early, so we won't be late for the sword-raising meeting!"
Hearing about the Sword-Raising Contest, the people at another table asked curiously, "Are you guys also from the Sword-Raising Contest?"
Naturally, they smiled and nodded.
The people at another table immediately said, "We were the same. We wanted to go earlier, but we didn't expect to encounter such a snowstorm."
Someone said with a smile: "We came out early, so it's not a delay. But I heard that the Taoist priest in Chengqing Palace calculated that our Daxia encountered something this year, so it snowed so heavily."
Some people were curious: "What's going on?"
Many people in the inn became curious after hearing this.
The man immediately said: "It's a big deal, saying that our Great Xia Empress is this and that, really..."
As soon as this person opened his mouth, the people around him immediately became nervous.
One of them immediately said, "Brother, don't you know that there are some things we can't talk about?"
The person who was telling the story heard this and immediately said, "What are you afraid of! It's so far away, and the Taoist is telling a good thing. He said that the heavy snow has removed the muddy weather of the Great Xia Dynasty, and that the snow is a good omen for a good harvest. He said that such heavy snow is a sign of good fortune that has appeared in our Great Xia Dynasty and has descended upon the emperor."
Everyone was surprised and thought it was some auspicious sign.
When Lu Cai heard this, he was confused for a moment, but immediately thought of the Queen.
Although Lu Cai is young, he has been in the palace for more than half a year and understands many things. Wasn't it the case that many bad people in the Xia Dynasty disappeared one after another since the appearance of the Queen?
Thinking like this
Lu Cai chuckled, because his master was said to be a good omen, which made Lu Cai happy.
At this time, a woman from the troupe approached the man and said charmingly, "Is that Xiangrui the queen?"
While speaking, he even sat directly next to the man from Jianghu.
The woman had a plump figure. Although she was wearing a cloak, the thin and revealing clothes underneath could be clearly seen through the gaps.
The man from the martial arts world was full of vigor and vitality. Seeing the woman approaching him so charmingly, he naturally smiled and let the woman sit next to him and let her put her arm around his.
The people in Jianghu immediately said, "Of course not! The Queen is a person who is the Wenquxing incarnate, the number one on the Rouge List. Moreover, after she appeared, Li Nishang, Yang Guofu and others all became helpless and cowardly! Isn't she the auspicious sign of our Great Xia?"
When everyone heard this, they began to whisper.
However, one person in Jianghu said, "Oh~~~ Number one on the Rouge List, what kind of person is worthy of this position?"
As he spoke, the middle-aged man looked longing.
The merchants around were originally listening to the stories of the people in Jianghu seriously. When they heard this, one of them said, "To be honest, when I was doing business in the capital, I had the honor of seeing the Queen from afar. At that time, the Queen smiled, and I felt that all women in the world were nothing!"
After saying this, the businessman realized that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately said to the women in the hall: "I am really sorry, I did not mean to offend you, I said the wrong thing."
As he said this, he bowed repeatedly to apologize.
Although the women were somewhat unhappy, another one stood up and said, "I was also lucky enough to see her from afar. It was during the early winter poetry gathering. I went to join in the fun and the empress happened to come out. The smile she gave me when she looked back is still unforgettable."
One person said it, and everyone else thought it was nonsense.
But what the two people said made everyone even more curious.
The woman from the opera troupe stood up slowly, gently touched the man's cheek with her hand, let the man touch her waist, smiled coquettishly, walked towards the businessman, and said, "Is she really so beautiful?"
After saying this, he blinked his big eyes and stared at the businessman.
The businessman pursed his lips, because the woman seemed to be sticking to him, especially when he could see most of her big milky white snowy breasts, which made the businessman gasp and nodded: "Really!"
Seeing the woman like this, many men in the inn were shocked, thinking that she was so fucking slutty!
Some men in particular were swallowing their saliva, thinking about how many things had happened that night.
The young monk who was about the same age as Lu Cai and was sitting in a remote corner among the monks saw it and stared at it while blinking, but he was just looking.
The old monk beside him kept his eyes closed and chanted scriptures from beginning to end, standing still as a mountain.
The little monk's behavior made the other women in the troupe laugh.
Their laughter was charming, and even though they were wearing cloaks, it couldn't hide their plumpness underneath, which naturally aroused the hearts of the men in the inn even more.
Several of the women even walked towards the two tables of wanderers.
Seeing this, none of the gangsters at the two tables refused and stared at the women who were posing in a coquettish manner.
When the innkeeper saw this scene, he frowned and glanced at the troupe leader, but he didn't know what to say. He just told his daughter not to watch the scene.
The innkeeper's daughter nodded, then looked at Lu Cai and saw that Lu Cai didn't even look at those people. Instead, he was holding a letter in his hand and smiling foolishly.
Like a little fool, a woman didn't read the letter, but smiled at it. Was it written by the girl he liked? Or was it written by some important person?
The little girl blinked with some curiosity.
Several women were sitting in the arms of several martial artists. One woman, sitting in the arms of this man, raised her legs and gently teased the martial artist next to her. Her charming behavior really made the martial artists' blood boil.
Especially their coquettish and flirtatious looks, it was really difficult for this man to hold back.
The woman who was holding the merchant spoke softly, "I heard that the queen is also a famous swordsman, and she has reached the sixth rank in a short time. Many people in the martial arts world were shocked, but since it was said that the great commander of Yan personally taught the queen, no one dared to question it."
As she said this, the woman gently placed her hand on the man's chest, then bit her lower lip slightly and looked at the businessman.
The businessman put one hand on the woman's raised buttocks and said, "I'm just a businessman. You should listen to these martial arts heroes about this matter!"
There is wine and women.
The people in the martial arts world were naturally excited. When they talked about things, they were even more excited. They immediately said, "That's right! Many people in the martial arts world went to see it, and it really is the sixth rank. Some people said that the queen is not in good health and will not be able to walk far. Otherwise, they said that she must have surpassed Yan Ruyu. Think about it, one step to the sixth rank, damn it, I am only the third rank, sixth rank! If I were the sixth rank, I would directly join a sect as a worshiper and live a leisurely life for the rest of my life."
As soon as these words came out, some people in Jianghu immediately seemed to remember something, stretched out their hands and touched their legs, and then said: "One step to the sixth rank, Jianghu has never seen such a thing before. To be honest, if many people hadn't said it, and it was taught by Yan Yunxiao, it would be hard to believe. But as this old man said, what a pity! Otherwise, one step to the sixth rank! And I heard that the queen is only in her twenties, so let alone Yan Ruyu, even Shentu Sheyue from the Shedao room might be able to fight her!"
Hearing the name Shentu Sheyue, a Jianghu man stood up, walked to the woman in another man's arms, stretched out his hand and grabbed the woman's big white snow-white nipples, then looked at everyone and said, "Brothers, have you heard that Shentu Sheyue is out, and I heard that he has gone to find Yan Ruyu."
The woman who was being squeezed hit the man, then glared at him and acted coquettishly towards the man who was holding her, but the two men were brothers and didn't care at all.
At this time, someone immediately said: "This is going to sit alone on the peak. This Shentu Sheyue might be the next Yan Yunxiao. I heard that he has already entered the ninth rank, and he is only 26 years old. How did these little monsters train, he..."
Bang!!
That's when it happened.
The door of the inn was opened directly.
The howling of wind and snow came in immediately.
then
Everyone saw six or seven men wrapped in fur coats and with knives hanging on their waists walking in.
When everyone in the inn saw these burly men coming in, they were all startled, because these men looked murderous and did not look like good people.
The innkeeper saw this and said with a smile, "Dear guests, our inn is full. If you don't mind, you can stay in the lobby for one night. It's free."
The leader glanced at the innkeeper, then looked at the other people in the inn, glanced at the monk and Lu Cai, saw the sword beside Lu Cai, looked at Lu Cai again, and ignored it, and then looked at those people from the martial arts world.
Those people in the martial arts world looked at these people one by one, especially when they saw these people looking at them, they naturally looked straight over.
However, the man who just came in took off his hat and said coldly: "Get up after you succeed, don't act like you have never seen a man! Can't the men on the mountain feed you?"
The woman next to the businessman pouted and said aggrievedly: "What are you talking about, sir? I'm sure they can be fed, but isn't this just playing with them?"
As she spoke, the woman lightly tapped the businessman who was holding her, then stood up.
But just as she stood up, a short knife suddenly appeared in the woman's hand, and she chopped off the merchant's left hand. Then she smiled and said, "You think you can touch my ass?"
