"ah……"
Jiang Xiaobai's miserable voice came, from far to near, the whole person was like a white dog that fell off a cliff, from the sky to the forest, hanging on a thick old locust tree, startling a single bird to fly away.
After a struggle, he fell from the tree to the ground. His face was covered with dust and his clothes were in tatters.
Jiang Xiaobai stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and walked towards the official road. Fortunately, it was not far from Cangzhou City. Jiang Xiaobai did not use the magical power of "shrinking the ground into an inch", but walked slowly towards the city gate. go.
But at the city gate, two soldiers stood feebly at the city gate, while the other two had built a shed outside the city gate, drinking wine boredly.
Jiang Xiaobai walked over unsteadily with his hands behind his back. The guard guard glanced at him and waved his hand in disgust.
Jiang Xiaobai walked into the city gate, and suddenly an idea occurred to him. He stepped back and stared at the soldier on the left until he was a little scared.
"Hey, are you leaving? Why are you staring at me? I'll beat you up, believe it or not." Soldier A said.
Jiang Xiaobai looked at Soldier B on the right, Soldier C and Soldier D who were drinking in the shed, and finally said to Soldier A: "Don't you check the identities of the people coming and going in the city? Who is responsible for the spies who sneak in? , can you afford it?"
The soldier was startled. Where did he come from? He was so stupid. He was looking for trouble!
Just as he was about to have an attack, Jiang Xiaobai turned around, stared at the drinking soldier Bingding, and shouted angrily: "And you, who allowed you to drink while on duty?"
I wipe it!
The four people at the city gate were stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment.
Jiang Xiaobai looked up at the sky, and suddenly softened his tone and said: "Actually, I can understand that you have all worked hard in this hot weather, but you must behave like a soldier."
After saying that, he took out a one hundred tael silver note from his arms and stuffed it into the soldier's hand. He then arranged the soldier's clothes and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll take the brothers to have a nice meal when I exchange the money." .”
Soldier A's eyes widened and he was a little confused for a moment, but the lower-level soldier, who was just a fisherman at work, was naturally very thoughtful and seemed to understand something in an instant.
I'm afraid not, maybe he met some superior who paid a private visit incognito. For a moment, the soldier Bingding who was drinking in the shed also straightened his clothes and stood in front of the city gate, obediently.
"Remember, in the future, all people who enter the city will have their identities checked. Now, there is no peace in the north, so don't be careless." Jiang Xiaobai said seriously.
"Yes, yes, sir, we don't dare anymore." Soldiers A, B, B, and D said obediently.
"Okay, you guys are on duty!" Jiang Xiaobai said, walking towards the city with his hands behind his back, but he only took two steps and pretended to be casual: "By the way, if there is one who looks good, bring me When a woman with a sword enters the city, you must stop her. If she asks about me, you will point her in the wrong direction. That is my mother-in-law. She was caught visiting a brothel two days ago. You know what she is doing..."
"I understand, I understand, sir, walk slowly..." Soldier A showed an expression that every man would understand.
Jiang Xiaobai walked into the city and secretly showed a wise smile. No matter how smart you, Li Laoliu, are, you will eventually drink my foot-washing water.
Outside the city gate, four soldiers stared at each other.
"Who is this? Sir, I haven't seen it before!"
"How did I know? Who cares, he's spending a lot of money. One hundred taels is enough to buy two houses in Cangzhou City."
"Well, I'm afraid that's not the case. He's also a corrupt official. Don't worry about him. Just relax in Cuiyan Tower at night..."
After discussing like this, the four people no longer took advantage of the situation, but began to work seriously, and carefully checked the identities of the people entering the city.
Outside Cangzhou City.
Li Furong frowned slightly when she saw this scene. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly rose up with her sword, rushed into the sky, and entered from above the city gate with her sword.
Jiang Xiaobai had entered the city at this moment, but he didn't know that his cleverness was mistaken for him. Li Furong didn't go through the city gate at all.
He was immersed in the prosperity of Cangzhou City at the moment, but he saw that in this city, there were red walls, green tiles, bluestone streets paved with blue bricks, surrounded by restaurants, various shops lined up in rows, and the sounds of various sales were endless.
Jiang Xiaobai enjoyed life the most in his previous life, and this life is no exception. He has endless banknotes given by his senior sister in his pocket, and he consciously walks a little straighter.
He first went to a tailor shop and bought a clean green shirt. After changing it, he walked around the city and finally came to the largest inn in Cangzhou City - Yunlai Inn.
But when he saw Jiang Xiaobai walk into Yunlai Inn, he slapped a fifty-tael silver note on the counter with the face of a nouveau riche, which startled the drowsy shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, it's not bad to open a presidential suite!" Jiang Xiaobai said.
Forehead?
The shopkeeper was a little confused, but the moment he saw the banknote, he smiled happily and calmly put the banknote into his sleeve and said, "The guest wants a superior room. Room C in Tianzihao is still available." , I wonder how many days the guest guest will stay?”
"Hurry up and finish my stay with my money. By the way, prepare a table of good dishes for me, such as bear paws, shark's fins, and lobsters, of the highest quality. Also, I want a jar of aged wine. Hurry up. I'll finish it." Go to sleep." Jiang Xiaobai ordered.
The shopkeeper's face fell, and he hesitated to speak.
Jiang Xiaobai was unhappy and glared at the shopkeeper: "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
The shopkeeper looked Jiang Xiaobai up and down, but saw that he was wearing a green shirt, and his behavior... acted like a nouveau riche. He didn't look like a liar, but these days he pretended to be a rich man and cheated on food and drink. However, if This is really a wealthy guest. Wouldn’t it also offend the distinguished guest?
Seeing that he hesitated for a long time, Jiang Xiaobai said, "What's going on? You're just whining."
The shopkeeper immediately showed a simple and honest smile, and said carefully: "So that your distinguished guests know that you are afraid that you can't arrange the fifty taels of silver notes?"
I wipe it!
Jiang Xiaobai was suddenly startled. Damn it, did I have any misunderstanding about the fifty taels of silver notes?
He took out a two-hundred-tael silver note from his pocket again and said: "You, the shopkeeper, are quite short-sighted. Do I look like the kind of person who can't afford to pay? On which floor is room C of Tianzihao?" "
"Third floor, third floor. It's in the corridor." The shopkeeper immediately said with a smile.
Jiang Xiaobai turned around and went upstairs.
At this moment, Li Furong, who was entering the city, found a deserted place to stop, put her long sword behind her back, and began to look for Jiang Xiaobai's figure in the vast sea of people.
However, Cangzhou City is so big, with only a few streets from east to west, north and south, and many residential buildings. To find Jiang Xiaobai in this flow of people is undoubtedly to find a needle in a haystack.
She wandered around for a long time, thinking that this was not a solution and that she had to find someone to ask. When she looked up, she happened to see the Yunlai Inn in front of her.
