After a while, everyone in the inn had almost left, and most of the room doors were open. Two people sneaked into the room where Tang Doudou lived. After searching around inside, they finally found it on the ground. In the corner, I saw a little bit of crumbs of skin.
"Boss, it seems that the woman just now was pregnant."
"From what the waiter said, they were traveling with two people and a man."
"Go, tell Master Yun about this!"
Before Tang Doudou walked out of the flooded area, she suddenly heard a huge sound of water breaking from behind. She was afraid it was some kind of monster in the water, so she hurriedly turned around and saw a group of people painting wooden boards. Come this way with your things on your back.
The corners of his lips were slightly curved. It seemed that these people were not all stupid. They all knew how to make a choice when they saw that the situation was wrong.
Seeing that someone had escaped, Tang Doudou felt a lot more at ease, and his feet were not so heavy. He quickly walked out of the flooded street and reached the eaves where only the shallow edge of the platform was exposed. He wring out the excess water on his clothes and looked at It was still raining non-stop, so she had to find another inn.
"When we were in the Maple Green City Branch Hall just now, the gatekeeper said there was an inn across the street, right?" Tang Doudou touched his chin. The terrain over there was high and it should be safe.
It's better to go there quickly. With so many people escaping here, the inn at the top will definitely be crowded.
Tang Doudou thought and hurried over there.
He glanced at the branch hall first, then turned and walked to the opposite street to find the inn.
She obviously moved so quickly, but when she saw the crowds of people at the door of the inn, she felt ashamed.
From the looks of it, I'm afraid there's no room left.
Tang Doudou wanted to leave, but when he passed by the door of the inn, he glanced inside and found that it was empty with no one in there.
Everyone was blocked at the door, shouting at the shopkeeper to let them in quickly.
These people were dragging their families, being drenched in the heavy rain, and still had to pay homage. If they really couldn't find a place to live, they would be in trouble.
I don’t know who is responsible for the drainage of Fengqing City. Why is there no movement at all with such a huge water flow
Fengqing City belongs to King Qi. Since there is chaos in the city, he should send someone to deal with these things soon.
Forget it, what she wanted to do was to find a place to change clothes quickly, otherwise she would be in trouble if she really caught a cold.
Just as he was about to find another inn, he soon discovered that his umbrella was broken.
Although it was raining heavily at this time, it was almost the same with or without an umbrella, but having an umbrella could at least block a little bit of the rain, at least it would not blur the vision.
It seems that I can't continue walking.
Keep walking, the other inns may be full at this time.
Tang Doudou fell back, patted the people next to him and asked, "What's going on with this inn? Why aren't you allowed in?"
"This unscrupulous person doesn't want to make more money! There are too many people and there are not enough rooms in the inn, so we can't let everyone in. We can only let them in first based on who pays more. If there is really no other way, we will let them in first. We poor people should go wait in the lobby! Hey! Even if God bullies others these days, this person is still bullying others!"
Tang Doudou knew that there were people in ancient and modern times who took advantage of natural disasters to make a fortune.
She stepped forward and asked the shopkeeper, "How much does it cost to stay in the hotel?"
The shopkeeper was a short, fat and smooth man, about forty years old, with a pair of small eyes on his fat face full of cunning. He looked Tang Doudou up and down, and touched the golden abacus on his waist with disdain, "Five Twelve days a day.”
Tang Doudou frowned. For an ordinary inn, even one tael a day was expensive. Fifty taels a day, why didn't he grab it
Seeing the look on her face, the shopkeeper immediately chased her away, "If you can't afford to live here, get out of here. Don't block the way for me to make a fortune!"
This person is really good!
Tang Doudou was speechless. Even if he wanted to make a fortune, he couldn't be so unscrupulous, right
The flood will not last forever. When the water recedes, and the court awards disaster relief funds to rebuild those houses, these people will go back to live sooner or later. Will this inn still be able to continue to operate
"Shopkeeper, you are going too far!"
"That's right! Fifty-two days a day, even living in a gold house is not that expensive!"
"Forget it, everyone should stop staying in his shop. We can't let him make everyone's hard-earned money! Let's find a place to go when we are young!"
"Yes, I know there is a ruined temple over there. Although it is a little dilapidated, it will definitely provide shelter from the wind and rain!"
"Let's all go, let's go! Let's not come to this shady store again!"
The price of fifty taels a day immediately shocked the crowd. Some families could not collect fifty taels in their entire lives. Isn't this obvious bullying
Tang Doudou originally wanted to teach the shopkeeper a lesson so that he could lower the price and let everyone in, but seeing everyone so excited to leave, she had to swallow all her words and followed the crowd to make a fuss and followed them out. .
Seeing that all these people were leaving, the shopkeeper panicked. In fact, he didn't really intend to ask for such a high price. He just asked for a higher price first and then let them negotiate the price. In this way, he could make a lot of money, but these people were all leaving. , then there is no way to make money!
Thinking of this, his little eyes rolled again, and he grabbed Tang Doudou who fell behind the team, "Sister, don't be busy!"
"Everyone, please don't leave in a hurry. I was just joking with this lady just now!"
Tang Doudou's eyes moved, and he turned around and asked, "When is this? Are you still in the mood to joke with us? It's fun to see everyone soaked in the heavy rain, right?"
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed and sighed, "Actually, I also have my own reasons."
"Sister, please stop being wordy with him. It's raining so hard, you'd better find a place to hide quickly!" Someone saw Tang Doudou stop and kindly reminded her because she was older and alone.
Tang Doudou originally wanted to follow the others, but when she saw the shopkeeper asking her to stay, she changed her mind. If she was really an old woman, she would definitely go with them, but the way she changed her clothes and the facial expressions on her face were all inconvenient. In a ruined temple, it is inevitable that there will be many people and mixed eyes.
Tang Doudou sighed and looked up, "The rain is too heavy. If I continue walking, I'm afraid my old bones won't be able to withstand it!"
"Yes, yes, sister, you'd better not follow them, just stay here with me!" the shopkeeper said hurriedly after hearing what she said.
The person who persuaded Tang Doudou saw that she really didn't want to leave, and he was busy going to the ruined temple to take shelter from the rain, so he shook his head and followed the team in front without saying anything.
In the blink of an eye, all the people gathered at the door were gone. The shopkeeper felt very sad when he looked at the empty door. He looked at Tang Doudou as if he were seeing the God of Wealth, "Sister, please come in!"
Unexpectedly, Tang Doudou shook his head and squatted down at the door, "I am an old woman who can't afford fifty taels."
"Sister, you were just joking."
Tang Doudou remained silent.
The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and held out five fingers to Tang Doudou.
Tang Doudou didn't even look, he just leaned against the wall behind the door and closed his eyes.
"Sister, look at you, you are soaked all over. If you don't change your clothes, you will definitely catch the wind and cold. You just spend five taels of silver to stay in the hotel. If you save on the wind and cold, you will spend more money, right?"
"Fifty taels of silver?" Tang Doudou showed him his sleeves and asked, "Do you think I have five taels of silver?"
The shopkeeper's face froze. He had guessed that she had no money because of her tattered clothes, so he opened his mouth to facilitate his future plans.
However, these people took all their belongings with them when they escaped. Even if this old woman was poor, she should have saved a lot in most of her life!
How is it possible that you don’t even have five taels of silver
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper guessed that Tang Doudou wanted to get cheaper.
But there is no such thing as a good thing, five taels is no longer low.
Besides, there are quite a lot of people flooded over there. A group of people left just now, and more will definitely come later. The shopkeeper thought like this, and turned around and entered the inn.
Tang Doudou sat on the steps, secretly activating his internal energy to steam dry his clothes, holding the black box and looking at the branch hall opposite in a daze.
But at this moment, a man walked out of the branch hall, glanced at the heavy rain outside lightly, raised his feet and walked out. Just when his feet landed on the water, a magical scene appeared.
I saw masses of mist appearing under his feet, and soon gathered into clouds, carrying his body forward and disappearing quickly.
What kind of skill is this
Tang Doudou was surprised, and looked at the man without any concealment. Although the man was far away, his senses were extremely sensitive, and he turned around and looked this way from a distance.
Tang Doudou, who had been staring at him, naturally felt this gaze, and immediately turned his head away, focusing on the pool of water in front of him.
Thoughts were constantly running through her mind, and she guessed everyone she knew in the martial arts world, and finally settled on one person's name.
This person was the man who walked away with Fu Yunliu on the street before.
Bailiyu said that he seemed to know this person.
Coupled with the skills he revealed just now, this person's speed is probably rare in the world, and the cloud-like thing can further illustrate this person's identity.
Sea of clouds!
Why is he in Maple Green City
Why are you looking for Fu Yunliu
Are you going to discuss dealing with her and Baili Yu
Tang Doudou never imagined that he would meet this person who he had never met before, but already had many grievances.
Just when she was deep in thought, someone else came to the door of the inn.
Lifting his feet to walk in, Tang Doudou put aside his previous thoughts and stood up to stop in front of the man.
"This auntie." The man shook the water off his body and complained about the weather. Then he bowed down to Tang Doudou and made a weird salute, "I wonder what you're doing by stopping me?"
Tang Doudou stretched his head to take a look inside the inn, and secretly dragged the scholar-looking young man aside, "You can't stay in this hotel!"
The scholar was surprised, "Why?"
"You see, this location is the most convenient place to escape. There were dozens of people passing by here just now, but there are not even a single guest in this inn." Tang Doudou said in a low voice.
The scholar was still puzzled, "Maybe everyone thinks it's too close here and it's not safe."
"That's not the case. According to what I just heard, it's because this store is too expensive!"
"Expensive?" The scholar smiled, "That's normal. There are only a few inns in Fengqing City. If they continue to charge as usual, I'm afraid they will be so full that there will be nowhere to stay."
Tang Doudou nodded, "Since you don't mind, it's just me meddling."
After saying that, she let go of the scholar, turned around and continued to sit down, but while sitting down, she murmured in a low voice, "Rich people and poor people, that's the difference! Even an old woman can't stay in an inn worth five taels. People in the two inns didn’t even raise their eyebrows, tsk tsk…”
She spoke softly, but the scholar was very close to her, and he heard it clearly immediately. His eyes widened immediately, and he bent down and asked Tang Doudou: "Auntie, you, you just said, fifty taels?"
"I didn't say it!" Tang Doudou refused to admit it, and told him to stay in the hotel if he wanted to, and do whatever he wanted, and don't hinder her wife from resting.
The scholar kept pestering her with questions, but she refused to answer, and soon attracted the attention of the treacherous shopkeeper.
