Looking around, there were no dangers along the way, and there was no real loss, but he really didn't want to stay on this "ghost carriage" any longer, and he entered the city earlier and parted ways earlier.
"Come on." Jiang Shining pointed to the snow outside the car, "Since I started this road, you can see that there are several layers of rut marks. Obviously, it is not far from the city gate."
Shitou glanced at the package containing the dry food with open eyes, swallowed, covered his grumbling stomach, and asked with a bitter face, "Can we rest when we enter the city? Get something to eat, I'm so hungry. I'm panicking."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Nianqi's stomach growled next to him.
"Are you hungry too?" Jiang Shining asked.
Lu Tianqi still had the heart of a teenager. He probably felt that the stomach growl made him very shameless, so he lowered his eyes and retorted: "No, it's not me." But when he said this, his tone was cold and stubborn, but his ears were pointed. has turned red.
Xue Xian exercised his shoulders and muscles for a long time, and said lazily: "The snow won't stop left and right, I looked at the weather earlier, maybe it will be bigger at night, anyway, the horses and horses can't go fast, it's earlier and later. Not far off."
The one who is the most difficult to serve has spoken, that is, he has agreed.
As for the other...
Jiang Shining and the others glanced at Xuanmin and found that he had no intention of speaking, so it was no different from the default.
After about half an hour, the speed of the team became slower and slower, and the slightly messy voices faintly passed over.
"It's here!" Shito Zhang excitedly rubbed his hands together, resembling a grey fly with a big belly and a round brain.
The county they passed through was called Huazhi County. Because it is close to the Guanyin Ferry by the river, although it is located on the border of Anqing Prefecture, it is a quite lively county town. It's just that this county is extremely small, and it takes at most an hour to go around the city from east to west. But even in such a small city, there are some rules for entering and exiting the city gate.
Xue Xian had landed here once before. If I remember correctly, Huazhi County has always been very strict with people entering the city. Dismounting from the horse and opening the door is the most basic, whether it is passing by or needing to stop for a few minutes. Heaven, but all foreigners must be registered in the register when entering and leaving the city gate.
Sure enough, following a few brief inquiries, the convoy stopped in front of the city gate. A guard was holding a register and was counting the people, carriage by carriage.
When he knocked on the door of Xue Xian and the others' carriage and probed in to count the registration, everyone's expressions suddenly became a little weird—
I saw a thick piece of black yào juice smeared on half of the guard's cheek, and also on the back of his hand, exuding an indescribable strange smell.
Wearing this rather unpleasant yào juice, the guard himself also felt uncomfortable, and he hurriedly checked, only glanced at Xuan Mian, then closed the car door and waved to let them hurry into the city.
"Why did he just stare at the master?" Jiang Shining asked in confusion.
"Who knows, maybe he doesn't look like a good person." Xue Xian seemed to be very interested in the scene outside the car, looked outside the curtain, and replied casually without looking back.
Everyone: "..." The most reliable person in this car is Xuan Min, this ancestor said with a face.
The scar-faced man and the others were kind after all, and they kept sending Xue Xian and the others to the door of an inn before parting ways with them.
The troupe seemed to be in a hurry and didn't want to delay for even a moment. Naturally, they had no plans to stay in this county.
"If you want to rent a carriage, just tell the owner of the inn. Huazhi County is small, a beam fell off and five people were killed. Three people can be related. The boss has some ways to help you find a carriage. Just give him some money for his hard work." The scarred-faced man told him before he left.
Xue Xian and the others naturally wouldn't ride their carriage for nothing.
It's just that everyone in this troupe has a weird temper, and they don't want to give money. They don't even accept money for singing and singing at the end of the winter months. Jiang Shining, the only person who could speak a little human language, pushed and shoved them for a long time, but failed to give out the money, so he was really helpless.
In the end, it was Lu Twenqi who spoke quietly: "Don't pull it, you can always pay it back in the future."
When he said this, he touched his few wooden branches with his fingers, and his expression was rather unpredictable.
"What did you… figure out?"
Lu Twenqi didn't speak, only said: "In short, I won't owe it."
Even Xue Xian would not be too suspicious of what this little stick said, let alone Jiang Shining. The troupe said hello and rushed out of the city, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Until a few of them sat down on the first floor of the inn
