Lin Chong and his party drove two carriages.
One of the carriages was loaded with gold and silver and other items packed in bags.
The driver was Shi Qian.
Si Xingfang's mother and maid were sitting in the other carriage.
The driver was Si Xingfang.
Although Lin Chong got a good horse, he did not ride it all the way.
Instead, he led the horse and walked with everyone.
In fact, even if Lin Chong rode the horse, everyone would not think it was inappropriate, but Lin Chong did not want to do this. .
Fearing that the officers and soldiers would catch up, everyone hurried all the way and finally walked out of Fuzhou in the evening.
Not far after leaving Fuzhou, they arrived at the small town where Pang Qiuxia was located.
The town is not too small, with about seven to eight hundred households.
Because it is at the junction of the two states, it is more prosperous with many merchants coming and going.
Everyone followed Pang Wanchun to an inn called Yingbin Building, where Pang Qiuxia and the maid lived.
After entering, Lin Chong asked the waiters to open a few rooms, and they would rest here tonight.
After opening the room, Lin Chong asked Si Xingfang to help his mother go back to the room to rest.
The others all started to take the bags from the car to Lin Chong's room.
Finally, he ordered the waiter to pull all three horses, including Zhuan Shanfei, to Lin Chong's room.
Taking care of the stable in the backyard, after everything was arranged, Lin Chong went upstairs with Pang Wanchun and came to Pang Qiuxia's room to say hello.
Pang Wanchun came to his sister's room and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?"
Pang Qiuxia's sweet voice came from the room after knocking on the door.
Pang Wanchun replied, "It's me, little sister.
Open the door quickly.
We are back after finishing our work."
After Pang Wanchun finished speaking, he only heard the sound of walking inside, and then the door was opened.
Lin Chong saw that it was Pang Qiuxia who opened the door.
At first, Pang Qiuxia thought that Pang Wanchun was the only one outside the door, and she acted very lazy and casual, but when The moment she opened the door, she saw Lin Chong standing outside the door.
A look of shame suddenly flashed in her eyes.
She hurriedly adjusted her expression and said softly, "Young lady didn't know that Brother Lin was here with you.
Don't blame me for being rude."
Seeing Pang Qiuxia's casual expression, Lin Chong smiled knowingly and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
I need your brother's help because I have something important to do, so I called him away in a hurry.
I had no choice but to leave you and the maid here.
Brother, in my heart I feel very guilty.
Now that the matter has been settled, I came to see my little sister to apologize in person."
When Pang Qiuxia heard that Lin Chong said that he came here specially to visit her, she felt sweetness in her heart.
She said with a slightly red face, "Brother, please don't say that.
The reason why my brother and sister were able to escape from the suffering was all thanks to my brother's help.
It's too late for me and my brother to thank each other."
I will blame my brother” After Pang Qiuxia finished speaking, she stepped aside and invited Lin Chong and Pang Wanchun into the room.
Lin Chong walked into the room and sat down at the table.
Pang Qiuxia moved lightly and poured a cup of tea for each of them.
When Lin Chong saw that Pang Qiuxia was the only one in the room, he asked, "Why is my sister the only one here?
What about the maid who came with me?"
Pang Qiuxia listened to Lin Chong's question and said with a smile, "I'm not afraid of my brother's jokes.

Because I haven't been out for the past two days, I feel a little boring in my mouth.
I just asked the maid to go downstairs and beg the waiter to take him out to buy some snacks and come back to eat.
So, Not here."
After saying that, he lowered his head shyly.
In fact, eating snacks and shopping have been women's two major hobbies since ancient times.
However, in this feudal society, women were subject to too many restrictions and were not as free as women in later generations.
After hearing this, Lin Chong said with a smile, "What did I think it was, but it turned out that I was going out to buy snacks to eat.
What's the point of laughing at you?
Since my sister likes to eat snacks, brother, I will promise you here that on the way back, Whenever I encounter a larger prefecture or county, or a place with special snacks, I will buy some for you, so that you can taste the delicacies of these different places.
I don’t know how good it is."
Originally, Pang Qiuxia had made a secret promise to Lin Chongfang, but now that she heard that Lin Chong cared so much about her and made such a promise, her heart felt as sweet as if she had overturned a honeypot.
She immediately blushed and nodded to Lin Chong as a reply.
In fact, Lin Chong didn't have any special thoughts when he said this.
He regarded it as a kind of concern for his sister from his brother.
If this was said in future generations, it would be normal whether it is between friends or colleagues, but Lin Chong But he accidentally confused his identity.
He forgot that he was Lin Chong in the Water Margin world, not Wang Yu who lived in the later generations.
Therefore, what he just said would undoubtedly cause a misunderstanding to the conservative Pang Qiuxia, but Lin Chong just didn't think of it.
Lin Chong was sitting there chatting casually with his brother and sister, but at this time, Pang Qiuxia was completely in a state of narcissism.
She didn't hear what Lin Chong said clearly and just answered subconsciously.
Lin Chong and Pang Wanchun sat for a while, and the maid came back after knocking on the door.
It was only then that Pang Qiuxia was interrupted by the knock on the door and came back to her senses.
Then she realized that she had lost some composure just now, and her pretty face became even more embarrassed. red.
Because he was tired from the journey, Lin Chong got up and said goodbye and went back to his room to rest.
Pang Qiuxia sent Lin Chong and Pang Wanchun outside the door, and then kept looking at Lin Chong dreamingly until Lin rushed into her room, then turned back to the house with a look of reluctance.
Everyone rested for a while, went downstairs to have dinner together, and then went back to their rooms to rest, spending the night without talking.
At dawn the next day, the group packed up their things, loaded up the car, calculated the rent, and asked the waiter to help find a carriage for Pang Qiuxia and the maid to ride.
This was originally a normal thing, but In the eyes of Pang Qiuxia, who was filled with love at this moment, it became Lin Chong's love for her, making her heart beat again.
Later generations often said that women in love have zero IQ.
It seems that this statement is still applicable in ancient times.
Lin Chong asked Pang Wanchun to drive his sister's carriage.
The others remained unchanged.
After everything was ready, they set off and headed straight for Liangshan.
In this way, everyone walked for three or four days and stayed overnight.
On this day, they arrived in Shezhou.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Chong suggested finding a place to stay for one night and then set off on their journey tomorrow morning.
Everyone walked forward for a while and saw a small market at the foot of the mountain ahead.
It was not large in size, with about two to three hundred households.
At this time, smoke was rising from the market, and it was obviously time to cook dinner.
The group of people hurriedly took a few steps and walked in.
It turned out that it was not a market, but a larger village.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they happened to meet a farmer coming back from the fields.
Lin Chong saw him and stepped forward, bowed and asked.
"Brother, you are polite.
I and a group of people came from out of town and passed by here.
We missed Sutou because of the long journey.

I wonder if there is an inn or similar place nearby for us to rest."
The man listened to Lin Chong's question and looked up at Lin Chong.
Seeing Lin Chong's kind expression, he smiled and said in return, "This place is a small place.
There is no inn specifically for pedestrians to rest.
But just keep walking along this road and make an appointment at the end of the village."
There is a small tavern everywhere.
In the past, travelers who missed our place would stay there for a night, but I see that there are quite a lot of you, so I’m afraid the tavern won’t be able to accommodate you.”
Lin Chong thought that as long as there was a place for a few female relatives to stay, they, a group of old men, could make do with one night from anywhere, so he thanked the eldest brother and led everyone in the direction he said.
However, what Lin Chong and others did not notice was that when they had not gone far, the farmer who had pointed the way stopped and quietly turned around, looking at the horse that Lin Chong was holding, as well as the vehicle behind it. , a strong look of greed flashed in his eyes, and then he turned around and changed direction, taking a small path and running towards the mountain not far from the village.
Lin Chong and others walked along the road to the end of the village, and finally saw a tavern with a flag curtain with the word "wine" hanging on it.
The group came to the tavern and pushed the door open.
They saw that the room was not large, with five or six tables, maybe It's because of the village store that there are no customers at this time.
The owner of the tavern heard the sound of someone coming in and hurriedly came out of the back kitchen to greet people.
When he saw so many guests coming in at once, he immediately said with a smile on his face, "Guests, please take a seat.
The place is a little crowded." , please don’t be offended.”
Everyone found a place to sit down, and Lin Chong said, "Innkeeper, I am a guest on the way.
Because I missed the place, I was directed by the villagers at the entrance of the village to your store.
I wonder if you can accommodate me for one night.
I will get up early tomorrow."
Money and meals will be taken into consideration.”
When the shopkeeper heard Lin Chong said he wanted to stay overnight, he smiled and replied, "Back to the guest, this small shop often has passing guests staying overnight.
It's just because the shop is small so the rooms are limited.
I'm afraid it can't accommodate so many guests."
When Lin Chong heard that the store owner agreed to stay overnight, he said, "It doesn't matter.
We just need to arrange a room for these women.
We brothers can just spend the night in this hall."
The shopkeeper nodded after listening to Lin Chong's words and said, "In this case, the small shop is suitable for accommodation.
The villain's shop originally had two guest rooms, which is just suitable for these four female guests to rest in one room."
After hearing this, Lin Chong nodded and said, "That's the best."
After the accommodation matter was settled, Lin Chong asked the store owner to make more food and wine for him to eat.
After a day's journey, he was already hungry.
The store owner agreed and went back to the kitchen to prepare.
After a while, everyone smelled the aroma of rice.
Not long after the meal was ready, there was already cooked beef in the pot, so the store only cooked a few hot dishes and served them all with a large jar of wine.
The four female family members sat at a table alone, while Lin Chong, Shi Bao and others made a table.
Everyone was already hungry and started eating as soon as the food and wine were served.
When they were eating, the door of the restaurant was pushed open, and three people came in from the outside.
Lin Chong and the others looked up at these three people, and their eyes were fixed.
Although these three people were wearing very ordinary clothes, they gave people an extraordinary aura.
I saw the person in front of me who was twenty years old, seven feet five six in height, wearing a gray cloth horn turban on his head, thick eyebrows, big eyes, deep eyes, red lips and white teeth, a dignified appearance, wearing a coarse cloth jacket, with both arms The sleeves were rolled up, revealing two dark and thick arms.
He wore a pair of dark blue fabric trousers on his lower body, and a pair of multi-eared hemp shoes on his feet.
The one on the left behind him is slightly younger, about twenty-five or six years old, with a pair of bright tiger eyes and a well-proportioned figure.
He wears a white double-breasted shirt and a pair of high black boots.
The one on the right is younger, about in his early twenties, with a childish look on his face.
He looks similar to the one on the left, but is slightly taller and has an excited look on his face.

When the store owner saw the three people coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, "It turns out to be Brother Wang.
Please come in and sit down quickly."
The man known as Brother Wang looked around after entering the room, and finally fixed his eyes on Lin Chong's table.
After looking at it for a few times, he turned back and asked the store owner, "I dare to ask the store owner, who is the dark horse outside?"
