"Xiao Er, are these beggars who ask for food locals?"
Hearing Ling Yan speak, the shopkeeper who was wiping the table hurriedly walked over, glanced at the side that Ling Yan was pointing to, and said with a smile: "The beggars in this city were from Shaxian County earlier, but later they became the most from other places.
It is also said that although this world is not bad, in some places it is not easy for people to live, but it can't be said that death is death, it has become a begging for food along the road, and if there is any leftover food in the evening of my shopkeeper, it will be given to them. ” This guy is too mediocre to be mediocre, and he has a blue-gray felt hat that must have been sewn in three places, his face is polished by hard times, and if you look closely at his hands, you can still see thick calluses, but even if his life is not very good, he also has compassion for the helpless beggar, and he has never had any contemptuous expression.
"Little Er, you make some hot dishes and send them out, and the account will be on my head."
Ling Yan took a piece of broken silver as a reward for Xiao Er, but the shopkeeper refused to do anything, Ling Yan was surprised, this is enough money of 800 Wen, and a guy who runs around in the inn may only be able to earn so much all year round.
Xiao Er kept shirking, and his simple face kept smiling, "If you are objective, it is enough to give a few pennies, and no matter how much objectivity is left, you can help those who need it more." ” It was morning at the moment, and the stove had just been hot, so the chef should not be busy, but because of Ling Yan's words, the back kitchen of the inn began to be busy for a while, making several hot dishes and preparing a large pot of rice, and then sent by the shopkeeper to the beggar who was squatting in the corner.
The beggars first nodded their heads of thanks to the shopkeeper constantly, and then they all looked at Ling Yan and knelt down to bow to him, Ling Yan smiled slightly.
It was still early for Ling Yan to leave the inn and take a tour in Shacheng, the scenery was nothing special, and the appearance of the rest of the places in the southwest was no different, in addition, Ling Yan found that the market in Shacheng was deserted, and there were basically not too many people on the street, and everyone seemed to be willing to go out.
There are mountains in the city, and there are cities in the mountains.
Trees planted in the city were scarce, and they were probably cut down when the city was built.
After swimming for less than half an hour, Ling Yan returned to the inn, this sand city really has no place that can be seen at all, the people are numb like dead people, Ling Yan was still in a good mood when he went out earlier, and when he came back, he was a little irritable, as soon as he stepped into the threshold with his front foot, Zhu Si followed in.
"How?"
"My lord, that place was originally the private residence of a rich man in Shacheng, but it seems that someone bought it half a year ago, but no one has seen anyone enter or leave that house for half a year."
Zhu Si was sweating profusely, and it seemed that he had spent a lot of effort in this short morning.
Zhu Si continued: "It was only yesterday that five people lived in it.
Coincidentally, those five people were the five people we met on horseback yesterday. ” This Ling Yan naturally knew.
His heart is alive, "The house I bought half a year ago has never been empty, and it has only been someone who has lived in it for the past two days, and it is still the five people I met on the road."
Among them, the man with the saber also knows how to draw a knife in Dongshu, isn't it?
These five people are the people of Tuxi Mountain, and they are here to fulfill the promise of Tuxi Mountain?
” The idea had just come to mind, like an unstoppable spring gushing out, and if so, it would make sense.
When Dongshu was destroyed, although the whole country was destroyed, it was inevitable that some fish would run out of the net, and a small part of these large and small shrimps were hiding in the southwest mountains, among which Tuxi Mountain was the place where the most Dongshu remnants were accepted.
"Great, great, great?"
Zhu Si interrupted Ling Yan's thoughts.
"Well, anything else?"
"My lord, my subordinates haven't eaten at this hour."
Zhu Si patted his stomach in embarrassment and said, Ling Yan laughed, thinking that there was something else important, it turned out that it was just this.
After arranging Zhu Si, Ling Yan walked out of the inn again, this time he planned to go and see the five people in person to confirm whether his conjecture was correct.
"Knock knock, anyone?"
Ling Yan knocked on the door, the faces of the five people in the room became solemn, originally there was only one person with a sword, and now the other four people are all holding weapons in their hands, but they are all knives, the most powerful man among the five people who know how to draw a knife in Dongshu glanced at the four of them, and then said to the other woman except for the golden hairpin girl: "Are our whereabouts exposed?"
” "I don't know, but let's go see who it is."
Another man went to open the door, and when he opened the door, he saw the unfathomable young man he had met on the road yesterday, and his face was suddenly ugly, and he asked in a cold tone, "Why did Your Excellency come here?"
” Ling Yan sighed, looked into the room with his eyes, and said slowly: "Knowing that the five of you have settled here, you want to come here to visit, isn't it a great faux pas for the host's family to even feel that the guests are visiting?"
” This person used his body to block Ling Yan's gaze, preventing him from peeking inside, and continued to speak: "Naturally not, but we and Your Excellency are only one-sided, and we don't even recognize each other's names, wouldn't it be too hypocritical to say that we are here to visit Your Excellency?"
” At this time, the other four people in the room also knew who was coming, and the most powerful of the five people on this trip was that the man couldn't help but clench the knife in his hand, and the momentum was full in order to deal with any unexpected situation, and the girl's face could not see anything other than some hateful expressions, perhaps in her consciousness that although this boy who was even younger than herself was also stronger than herself, it was definitely not much higher.
"Woman, why do you see me with this face, my son is actually not too bad, why can't you use a good-looking face to me."
Ling Yan smiled hippiely, but the more naturally he put pressure on the people in the house, this person dared to do whatever he wanted, and he must have some support.
"A person who only knows how to bully men and women to eat and not give money is not bad in his heart no matter how good-looking he looks outside, there is a saying that Jin Yu is ruined on the outside, which describes people like you."
"This is the first time I've heard of this, and I've seen it for a long time.
A few, I just found a few people settled here thinking that since there is a side of the fate but also fate, so I specially came here to say hello to the five of them, but now I think you seem to think that I have ulterior motives, so I will retire first. ” Ling Yan said and left, closing the door and leaving five pairs of eyes with surprise and jealousy, and of course, a lot of anger.
The five people in the courtyard looked at each other, and one of them asked, "There is such a big change in Shacheng, will our plan continue to be executed?"
If this person is from the government, we have to leave now, otherwise we won't be able to leave if we want to.
In addition, even if he is not from the government, most of our actions will not escape his eyes, after all, his strength is much higher than we imagined. ” "Yes, it's just a Shaxian county order, we Tuxishan can kill him whenever we want, and we don't really have to die for the sake of that so-called reputation."
Sure enough, the five people were from Tuxi Mountain, and they came to Shaxian this time to complete the words of Tuxi Mountain half a year ago, but they never thought that they would meet such a tricky person after coming down the mountain, and this person was likely to disrupt their plans.
"Miss, it's up to you to decide."
The four of them put the decision on the golden hairpin woman, who lowered her head and thought about it again and then raised her head and said, "Yes, let's do things smarter when the time comes, and I will find some people to keep an eye on him, and I can't let him do anything bad."

But what I'm most curious about now is who he really is. ” Entering the house at night, the epiphany bloomed in the middle of the night and then began to decay again, and few people could see the splendor in that moment, but Ling Yan was fortunate to see it today, now is not the season for epiphany to bloom, but this pot in front of him is contrary to the time when it is in full bloom, when it is short-lived, Ling Yan is outside, and there are more people outside with him.
At night there is an owl turning its head in a big tree, and everything around it cannot escape its gaze, and its vision is the night walker in the night, who fly up and down the wall, so that people cannot see their figures; There is also a group of dignitaries and nobles who sneak up on Yanliu Lane, or drunkards, and gamblers who still stay up all night in the gambling hall.
Cover the short-lived pot with a black cloth, place it on the side closest to the wall, and then disappear into the night from the corner of the wall, and now even the owl's eyes can't catch him.
Ling Yan walked in front of the gambling hall, and also walked through the fat powder of Yanliu Lane, and tripped the drunk to the ground with a slight trip, and then the drunk fell asleep on the cold ground by the way, Ling Yan followed four people this night, everyone wanted to throw him away, but they underestimated Ling Yan's speed, and also overestimated the size of Shacheng.
"Who are you, young man?"
If you don't agree with the rhythm of drawing a knife, a strong wind began to hang above the house, whirring, and the people who were woken up deliberately got up and locked the doors and windows.
