Chapter 13
It was originally intended to experience the world and see the customs and customs of ancient times. So Wu Yun was not in a hurry to rush and walked very slowly.
It was almost dark and I planned to find an inn to stay in.
Although this place is still an official road, there is no decent city within a radius of dozens of miles, which seems quite remote. The road is covered with weeds, and it is blown in the evening breeze...
"The west wind on the ancient road also has a bit of charm."
Wu Yun naturally didn't worry about the possibility of bandits, robbers and other things at night. It would be fine if he came. Try how powerful he had a new breakthrough to the fifth level of the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palm.
Um?
His ears moved slightly, and he heard the sound of rapid footsteps behind him, as if someone was approaching quickly. However, his footsteps were a little messy and scattered, and he was obviously not a martial arts practitioner.
"Brother, please wait!"
oh?
Wu Yun turned around and saw a young man wearing a luan scarf and a white scholar's robe walking towards him with a bamboo book frame on his back.
"Brother, are you also going to Beijing to take the exam? Why don't we go all the way together? I heard that this section of the road is not peaceful at night."
The young scholar said, looking around, with a look of worry on his face. But he still bowed to him meticulously: "Xu Xinyi is a candidate in Huating County. Have you not asked for your brother's name in Taigao?"
Wu Yun looked at him.
The scholar's clothes are simple but clean, and there is a small patch in a hidden place - ordinary people probably won't notice it. He claimed to be in Beijing for the exam, but he carried a book frame alone, and he didn't even have a book boy. It can be seen that his family is relatively average.
However, judging from the appearance and temperament, he is indeed a gentle scholar.
Although Wu Yun was less than thirteen years old, he looked like he was fifteen or sixteen because of his Yanyang body and martial arts practice. In addition, he was wearing a elegant blue shirt, which made Xu Xinyi mistakenly think that he was also a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam...
He smiled and said, "Wu Yun is just a man from the world, not a person who goes to Beijing to take the exam. If Brother Xu is willing, of course he can walk with him."
So the two walked side by side.
Along the way, Wu Yun discovered that this guy was actually a chatterbox and was very familiar with him...
"Brother Wu, since you are a man from the world, how about martial arts, right?"
"Um."
"The ancient poem has a cloud, walking with swords, and ferrying with fishing lamps. The style of a knight is really longing for. But Brother Wu, you look thinner and weaker than me. Can you beat the evil people who block the road?"
"It should be possible."
"Brother Wu, tell me the story of the heroes in the world? I want to hear it. If my parents hadn't forced me to study, I would have the ambition to support the world and make my country rich and strong in the Song Dynasty. I also want to be a hero. Brother Wu, tell me."
“…”
He glanced at Xu Xinyi in a faint voice: "Brother Xu, I heard your stomach rumbling. Do you still have the strength to say so much?"
Xu Xinyi rubbed his stomach embarrassedly: "I'm a little hungry. Oh, how could I know there are no post stations near this pipeline? It's still a wealthy place in Jiangnan. The power of the Song Dynasty is getting weaker and it's time to change. I went to Beijing to take the exam this time, and I'm going to win the top scorer."
Gululu...
Xu Xinyi cried again in his stomach.
He smiled at Wu Yun awkwardly.
Obviously, it is obviously more important to fill your stomach first than the top scorer in high school and supporting the world!
Wu Yun was about to say that he might as well go to the woods next to hunt a few wild game like rabbits to roast, but suddenly he found a faint light in the woods ahead.
At this time, Xu Xinyi also saw it and pointed happily in front of him: "Brother Wu, look, there are lights and people. It's so great. You don't have to spend the night in the wilderness."
The two followed the lights.
The light was about to get off the official road, turn right and walk half a mile along a dirt path.
Not far.
When I got closer, it was indeed an inn.
"Yuelai Inn. This name is really the standard in the martial arts world." Wu Yun smiled and thought to himself.
"Let's have a walk! Brother Wu, let's go in quickly, I'll have a good meal."
He lifted the hem of his clothes and hurriedly crossed the threshold.
Wu Yun had a pair of sharp eyes like a falcon. He observed it and found that there were almost no one in the inn. Even if there were some people in the world with fleshy faces and hats on their heads, there were almost no businessmen who were walking through the road.
"Is this a black store?"
He frowned slightly.
But it doesn’t matter. No matter the black and white shops, as long as you can eat and drink, it is a good shop! After all, Wu Yun is indeed hungry now.
The two sat down, and a waiter came over lazyly: "Two people are objective, what do you want to eat?"
Xu Xinyi said seriously: "I want two big bowls of beef noodles! By the way, just noodles, don't have beef."
Wu Yun:...
Waiter:...
Xu Xinyi's expression remained unchanged: "A gentleman is poor, while a villain is poor and a villain is poor."
"Okay, okay, just say it if you don't have money. I'll treat you." Wu Yun raised his hand and interrupted him, looking at the waiter: "Please give me all the signature dishes in your store. By the way, there is also good wine."
As he said that, he took out a gold ingot and placed it on the table.
The golden light blinded Xu Xinyi and the waiter's eyes.
In the distant corner, a few gangsters with fleshy faces flashed in their eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corners of their mouths.
"Okay, lord! Please wait."
The waiter went to the kitchen happily.
As soon as he walked into the kitchen, the smile on his face became ferocious. He looked at the chefs with big waists and round waists in the kitchen, and lowered his voice: "Here is a fat sheep! And it seems that they are two scholars with no power to tie up chickens."
One of the one-eyed chefs waved the kitchen knife in his hand: "Really?"
The waiter was confused by the gold ingots in his hand, and everyone showed greedy eyes.
What a big fat sheep!
The one-eyed chef immediately whispered: "Brothers, cook well. You don't need to add medicine to the food, just put it in the wine. This will make it easier to succeed."
On the dining table.
Xu Xinyi looked at Wu Yun and seemed to have to say something but stopped several times.
"Brother Xu says something."
"Brother Wu, this...isn't I talking about you. You even said that you are from the martial arts world. You don't even have the most basic common sense of walking around the martial arts world. I think you are just a rich child who is ignorant of the world. If you run out secretly, you are called a martial arts world guest."
Xu Xinyi seemed to be serious.
oh?
Wu Yun smiled: "How do you say this?"
Xu Xinyi looked around and leaned close to him and lowered his voice: "We are not exposed! When we go out, we must be careful and cautious. We must never let others know that we have money. Otherwise, it will easily cause disaster."
"So Brother Xu deliberately pretended to be poor?"
"No! I'm really poor. I mean you. Oh, forget it, I just hope this is not a black store. And you have too much gold ingot."
Xu Xinyi was very helpless and felt that the newly-recognized Brother Wu seemed to be too simple. He was so rich, and he was definitely a child of a wealthy family who was ignorant of the world.
