"Oh, oh, oh, I'm so sleepy. Why are you knocking on the door in the middle of the night? Are you going to let anyone live?"
The innkeeper was a fat man. He yawned and complained. When he opened his sleepy eyes and saw the three people in Xueguan and Zhang clearly through the light of the lamp, he couldn't help being surprised and said to himself:
"Oh, that man's calculations were really accurate. As expected, these three guests came to stay overnight in the middle of the night. It's really amazing!"
When Xue Wuhen heard this, he immediately became alert, grabbed the fat shopkeeper's shoulders, and said eagerly: "Shopkeeper, what did you say? Who can calculate accurately? Where is he now?"
The fat shopkeeper knew he had made a mistake and hurriedly covered it up: "Huh? It's... it's like this. There is a... old man... who often comes to the shop to play and chat, and he is quite effective in predicting things. This morning he told me that in the middle of the night There must be three guests coming to stay at that time, so... I was a little surprised to see the three of them, hehehe..."
Zhang Feide became impatient, pushed him away and rushed in, muttering: "Oh, I'm starving to death, what are you still doing there? Hurry up and get me some food!"
The fat shopkeeper hurriedly led the way forward and said repeatedly: "Okay, you three, please come in. The food has been prepared. You three, please eat now!"
As he said that, he pointed to an Eight Immortals table in the lobby. Xue Wuhen took a look under the light. Sure enough, he saw that the table was full of dishes, and these dishes were all the favorites of Xueguan, Zhang and the others. There were also three altars Good wine.
"Huh? The mysterious figure is here again?"
As soon as Xue Wuhen saw the food and wine on the table, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. His nerves immediately tensed up and he flew out like a spring. He patrolled around the inn as quickly as possible and found nothing suspicious. The mysterious man returned to the inn calmly.
At this time, Zhang Feide picked up the bowl and chopsticks and was about to eat a big meal. Xue Wuhen stopped him and said: "Third brother, wait a minute, have you forgotten? The origin of these meals is unknown. They may be poisonous or poisoned." Mongolian sweat medicine!"
The innkeeper of Xiangshun Inn was not happy when he heard this. He grinned and muttered: "Hey, guest, what you said is wrong. Could it be that I would poison you? Don't you regard my inn as your own?" A black shop?"
Xue Wuhen explained: "Shopkeeper, that's not what I meant. I was worried that the person entertaining the guests was up to no good. I was worried that he would poison the food and wine. I didn't say that this was a black shop!"
After hearing this, the shopkeeper of Xiangshun Inn changed his expression, but he refused to disclose the information about the mysterious man. He just nodded and said: "Well, you should be careful when you go out."
Zhang Feide was very hungry at this time. He looked at the table full of food and wine but couldn't eat it. He could only stare and drool. Guan Wenchang couldn't bear to see it. Suddenly he remembered something, so he pulled out a long needle from his hair. It should be inserted into the dishes.
Zhang Feide stopped him and said: "Second brother, what are you doing? What are you picking with an embroidery needle? If you want to eat food, just use chopsticks to eat it!"
Guan Wenchang said solemnly: "Third brother, this needle is a silver needle. You will know if it is poisonous when you pierce it into the food!"
"Oh? A silver needle tests the poison? What a good idea, hahaha!"
Zhang Feide laughed loudly after hearing this, and then said with a look of disgust: "Second brother, why are the silver needles inserted in the hair? Now you are piercing the dishes and picking here and there, how dirty! Don't you put them in the Qiankun Ring? How clean is it?”
"Oh, this...!"
Guan Wenchang said awkwardly: "Hey, I'm sorry, I'm used to it, I'll just put it in the Qiankun Ring from now on!"
Guan Wenchang tested the silver needle by inserting it into every dish, wine and rice. The silver needle was always the same and showed a silvery white color. When Xue, Guan and Zhang saw it, they breathed a sigh of relief, proving that these wine and food were not poisonous. .
Originally, the fat shopkeeper was worried that something was wrong when he saw that the person treating guests was so mysterious. Now that no problem was found in the food and wine, he felt relieved and said to Xue Wuhen and the others: "You three, these meals are clean and no one has eaten them." Poison, you can safely eat it now!"
After hearing this, Zhang Feide felt a little disgusted with the silver needle inserted in his hair, but at this time he was hungry and thundering in his belly, so he shouted: "No matter what, eat, otherwise you will starve to death!" "
They picked up the bowls and chopsticks, picked up the food, and started eating like a storm. After a while, the full table of food was cleared by the three brothers.
Touching his round belly, Zhang Feide smiled with satisfaction and said, "Well, now that I'm full, my stomach won't be fussy anymore. It feels so good!"
As he spoke, he raised his head and yawned, then turned around and said to the fat shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, give us a guest room. We brothers are full of wine and food, and it's time to go to bed!"
At this time, the fat shopkeeper was sitting aside and dozing off, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, turning a deaf ear to Zhang Feide's words.
Seeing that the fat shopkeeper ignored him, Zhang Feide kept nodding his head, and suddenly became furious and shouted: "Hey, shopkeeper, what are you doing?"
Zhang Feide's loud shout was like a thunderbolt from the blue. There was a buzz in the inn lobby. The fat shopkeeper who was dozing off jumped up in fright, but he woke up immediately, looked at Xue Wuhen and asked confusedly: " Guest...Sir, was it thundering just now? Is it going to rain?"
"Huh? This..."
Xue Wuhen pointed at Zhang Feide and said apologetically: "Shopkeeper, there was no thunder just now, it was my third brother who called you!"
The fat shopkeeper widened his eyes and said, "What? His voice is so loud?...He called me? What did he call me for?"
Xue Wuhen said: "The three of us brothers will stay at your hotel tonight. Please give us three guest rooms!"
"Oh? Check out a room?"
The fat shopkeeper quickly stood up, picked up the lantern and walked towards the stairs. As he walked, he said: "Three guests, please come upstairs. The rooms have been opened and the rent has been paid for you."
Upon hearing this, Xueguan and Zhang all said in unison: "What? Someone has opened a good room for us? Not only does he take care of food and accommodation? How can such a good thing happen in the world?"
Xue Wuhen wanted to ask the fat shopkeeper who did it, but he expected that he would not tell, so he did not ask. He just thought in his heart, who is this mysterious person? I thought about it left and right, but to no avail.
After arriving in the room and lying on the bed, the shadow of a kind old man appeared in front of his eyes. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he said in a voiceless voice: "Master Chu Tianhe, could it be Uncle Chu?
Well, it makes sense. Maybe Uncle Chu knew that I was going to celebrate his birthday, so he also gave me a surprise and sent people to prepare things along the way so that I could arrive at Chujiazhuang without any worries. Yes, that’s it! "
Thinking of this chivalrous and kind savior, and thinking of Chu Tianhe taking so much trouble to entertain her, Xue Wuhen's heart couldn't help but get excited, and she kept talking about Uncle Chu, without knowing it. When I woke up, I fell into a deep dream.
Along the way, it was no surprise that every time we stayed at an inn for a meal, someone would always arrange food and drinks for the three Xue Wuhen brothers to enjoy, and someone would always open a guest room for them to rest. Shi Xue Wuhen no longer had any suspicion, and concluded that it must have been arranged by someone sent by Chu Tianhe. He couldn't help but be even more grateful to this martial arts leader who was so righteous and righteous.
On this day, I arrived at a small town with beautiful mountains and clear waters and weeping willows. When I was resting in an inn called Cuiliuju, a melodious piano sound suddenly came.
The tinkling sound of the piano is like the flowing water of a small river or the gentle breeze blowing through the forest. It sounds extremely sweet and intoxicating.
The sound of the piano seemed to have some magic power. Unknowingly, Xue Wuhen got up, jumped out of the window, and followed the sound of the piano.
The winding path leads to a secluded place, where willow trees pass through the rows of flowers.
Xue Wuhen searched all the way, and in an elegant and unique pavilion, in a waterside pavilion surrounded by green lotuses, he saw a person sitting on the table and playing the piano.
Although the man was dressed in rags, he was handsome, charming, and lovable.
Looking at that man's figure, a sense of intimacy arose spontaneously, and Xue Wuhen couldn't help but walked over.
The sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and the person playing the piano turned around, looked at Xue Wuhen, smiled sweetly, and said softly: "Brother Xue, you are here."
"Huh? Little brother?!"
Looking at the ragged man, Xue Wuhen couldn't help being shocked. It turned out that this man was the little beggar Xue Wuhen met in Fengqiao Town when he first came out of the world!
At that time, Xue Wuhen and Zhang Feide were chased by Uncle Wang and a group of servants. Fortunately, the clever little beggar summoned a group of vicious dogs to cause trouble and took the opportunity to seize three of the Wang family's horses. The three of them were able to escape Maple Bridge Town smoothly.
However, since he came out of Maple Bridge Town, the little beggar suddenly disappeared like air. Unexpectedly, he was seen again in this remote town after many days.
And he, a little beggar, actually played the piano in such a beautiful and gorgeous city of water pavilions and flowers. He seemed a little out of place, but he was integrated with the heaven and earth, so harmonious and natural.
Xue Wuhen looked at the little beggar, remembering the scene when the three of them made a big fuss in Fengqiao Town that day. He suddenly became proud and laughed: "Little brother, where have you been these days? We agreed to meet at Fenglin Inn that day. , why did you suddenly disappear? It made Zhang Feide and I so worried about you!"
"Brother Xue, are you really worried about me?"
An interesting smile appeared on the little beggar's face, and he said with a naughty smile: "Brother Xue, wait a moment, I want to give you an unexpected surprise."
The little beggar said and walked directly behind the flower wall. He didn't know what he was doing. Xue Wuhen looked at the back of the little beggar and said to himself: "Ah, this little brother is so interesting. He hasn't seen me for many days and he doesn't talk to me, but he said he wanted to give me a surprise. Could it be that he wants to give me some gift?" I?"
While he was lowering his head to meditate, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and the fragrant breeze came. Xue Wuhen looked up and saw a beautiful girl in white walking out from behind the flower wall.
The girl's features were picturesque, her figure was light, she was as airy as a fairy, and she smiled sweetly as she walked over with flowers and willows scattered along the way.
Suddenly seeing that gorgeous girl in white, Xue Wuhen couldn't help but turn pale in shock, and exclaimed: "Jiang Yueqin!"
That's right, this girl in white clothes is the most beautiful girl in the south of the Yangtze River, Jiang Yueqin, who sets up a ring outside the West Lake Tower in Hangzhou to compete for marriage!
