"Old man, may I trouble you to ask, is this the tiger's pass?"
Li Yan led Fei Lei with a sword case on his back, and a golden mother sword pinned to his waist. He looked like he was in the dust, and came to a remote family's house to ask for directions.
"Yes, yes, here it is."
The person who opened the door was a skinny old man in his fifties with a stooped body. When he saw a burly man with a strong horse and a weapon, he felt a little guilty and hurriedly answered.
Li Yan glanced at the dirt road full of mud holes, and then asked the way: "How can I get to the inn here?"
"It's not far ahead, just turn left. There is just such an inn in Shilibaxiang, and the owner is a cousin."
Li Yan nodded after hearing this: "Thank you, old man."
Just as he was about to leave, the old skinny old man stopped him again.
"Strong man."
Li Yan turned around: "What?"
"Eh, a strong man is an official, right?"
The old man pointed to the copper bell wrapped around Feilei's neck. This was an official bell supervised by Xingtaipu Temple in Liaodong, and only the horses bred by the government would wear it.
"Ha, not bad."
Li Yan nodded.
"Official, I have something to tell you."
The old man looked left and right, and then leaned over and lowered his voice: "We, Menghu'ao, haven't seen a single outsider for half a year, but for some reason recently, there have been a lot more people passing by, especially in the past two days, a lot of people who came from wrong ways Be careful when people come to ask for directions."
After hearing this, Li Yan asked the old man, "Are there any people with bad backgrounds?"
"That's a lot, let me think about it."
The old man thought for a while before he said: "There is a pair of uncles and nephews who arrived last night. They don't sound like a good man, so they live in Qiantou Inn. I heard from my nephew that they don't have any road signs. He stopped only after paying more silver.¡±
Li Yan nodded: "What else?"
"There are still a lot of horses passing by. The people on them are all wearing cloaks and holding weapons. They look fierce and walk a few sticks of incense before you"
Li Yan glanced at the horseshoe pit on the ground.
"Anymore?"
The old man's voice became even lower: "I saw a man this morning, he might be Huo Tu whom the government wants to arrest!"
Li Yan frowned: "Old man, tell me carefully."
He took out a piece of broken silver and handed it to the old man.
"Don't dare! Don't dare!"
The old man waved his hands and dared not take it, swallowed and continued: "This man is wearing a satin robe, he is tall and big, and he speaks very rudely. He glanced at me, and my whole soul flew away in fright. Just like the Yamen It's like Huo Tu who knows how to do sorcery."
"Anymore?"
Li Yan asked again.
"Again, nothing more. Oh, there was another person passing by. He was an old lame man with a Northwest accent. He was not unusual. He was older than me, and he couldn't breathe when he walked. He probably had no children and wandered in a foreign land. poor man."
"Thank you, old man."
Li Yan forced the money into the old man's hand. He smiled kindly: "You can't give news to officials for nothing, right?"
After saying that, he led Fei Lei towards the suspension bridge not far ahead.
In the inn, Zha Xiaodao stretched his waist, Cao Yongchang brushed his teeth with the willow leaves dipped in salt, and asked vaguely, "When will General Li arrive?"
"Come on, it's here this afternoon anyway."
Li Zha and Li Zha had a conversation, and it was Li Yan who took the initiative to find Zha Xiaodao and asked him to find a remote place to wait for him. Cha Xiaodao also agreed.
Cao Yongchang had known for a long time that the two had some secrets, so he was not surprised. He asked, "Uncle, you committed such a big case. If people see General Li with you, wouldn't it ruin his future?"
"It doesn't matter even if you go on the road together. It's just that you don't go to the city and don't stay at the post station. He is Li Zhenfu himself, who knows who he is?"
Cao Yongchang lowered his voice: "You can't say that. Uncle, you forgot that at the foot of the mountain two days ago, a group of local officers and soldiers came after us. They also said that Tiqi had been eyeing us for a long time."
Zha Xiaodao grabbed a peanut from the table and put it into his mouth: "I don't know about it, he told me to wait. I guess there is something for me."
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the inn. Cao Yongchang leaned over the window and looked out. It was a group of men in black tight suits, all of them were breathing continuously, and their temples were bulging.
?The leader was wearing a veiled bamboo hat. He seemed to have noticed Cao Yongchang's gaze. He suddenly turned his head and said coldly.The light stabbed over as if it had substance.
Cao Yongchang's eyes were suddenly covered by Zha Xiaodao who was eating peanuts with his head down. He asked blankly, "What's wrong, uncle?"
"Nothing,"
Zha Xiaodao sniffed. He smoked a lot these past two days, and his nose was a bit blocked.
Everyone in this group has the level of Shidu, comparable to the first-class players in the army. The leading man was even at the peak of Shidu, and behind him there was a dragon and tiger aura floating in the shape of a rhinoceros, clearly an official.
People in this world are generally weak, but with the presence of officials, relying on dragon and tiger aura and talisman paper restraint with dragon and tiger aura, they can often kill monsters and wild ghosts who are much stronger than them.
Those monsters in the ghost stories and evil hears can open mountains and crack rocks, soar through the clouds and ride the fog, changing freely. But he never thought about fighting against the government, because of the existence of dragon and tiger spirit.
These people in front of them may not look good, but they can be said to be the best among them. When Li Yan met Li Rumei in person, the elite he gathered from the twenty-five guards in Liaodong was no different from these people in front of him.
Naturally, the soap servants of Longhu Mountain and a small number of natural aliens cannot be counted among them.
The man stared at the back room for a while, then withdrew his gaze, and said in a deep voice, "Boss, stay at the shop."
He threw two silver ingots onto the cabinet, and the shopkeeper finally came to his senses.
"How many guest officials are these?"
"Ten men, ten horses."
The shopkeeper showed embarrassment: "Ah, here, guest officer, you can see that even if there are only three staff and cooks here, there are only a few rooms on the upper and lower partitions. Evict the guests from the two rooms and us. It's too"
"You don't need to be so troublesome. You can live in as many rooms as you have. I will reward you more. You mean a guest with two rooms?"
He could suppress the sound of the word "two".
"Yes, a pair of uncles and nephews passing by, and a son-in-law. Oh, there is still one Ma Jue sleeping, your Ma Lai, I have to ask him to move."
"Then they are really unlucky."
The man snorted coldly and asked the waiter to lead him up the stairs.
? In the side room lived a tall and burly young man in black silk and satin, with an unruly complexion. This man had handsome features, eyes that captivated the soul, especially his slightly emerald skin, unlike ordinary people.
He also heard the movement in the room, and couldn't help sneering: "Unlucky? I think who is unlucky."
"That, Mr. Thirteen?"
The waiter outside shouted.
"What's up?"
"Uh, it's the steamed white eel you wanted, and I asked the people who just arrived to take it away first. Don't get angry, these people are arrogant. We are out of the house, so we can't make it. The back kitchen will make it for you. What do you think?"
This Mr. Shisan smiled instead of anger. He stretched his sleeves and said through the window: "It's okay, let them eat."
"Hey, you're big."
The man just left.
Mr. Thirteen licked his lips, let out two green breaths from his nose, and slowly closed his eyes.
The next room.
"Uncle, are these people coming after us?"
Cao Yongchang lowered his voice.
"Eight or nine is not far from ten."
Cha Xiaodao smiled.
"Then what should we do if General Li is here? Can we leave?"
"It doesn't matter, it's still up to you whether this group of people can get out of the inn alive."
Zha Xiaodao stared at the wall at hand, only one wall separated him from Mr. Fourteen. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
