Chapter 21 The Liangshan Hotel has arrived

Changshou and Xiaodie walked all the night and walked until noon the next day to find a larger market town.

He bought two sets of coarse cloth clothes worn by the village girl in the village for a very small amount of money.

Xiaodie complained about the color, size and style of the clothes while changing them. The most important thing is that the clothes are still numb.

The Wugu tribe has lived among the mountains and ridges in the north for generations. Life is hard, almost all possessed by wild animals.

To the people of the Great Chu Kingdom, this is almost the same as a wild beast.

However, after Xiaodie's grandfather gathered to raise an army to attack the Qingbai Dynasty, the leaders became increasingly luxurious and lived a life of luxury. Many people also began to live a life of luxury.

Xiaodie was born at this time. Although she still maintained the martial spirit of riding a horse and even charging into battle, she was already accustomed to enjoying the silk and satin sold by the Great Chu State from the sea.

"What's this?"

Xiaodie suddenly pointed to the Taoist robe that Changshou had just changed and asked.

Changshou was stunned at first, then woke up and hurriedly wanted to bend down and pick up the Taoist robe.

But Xiaodie moved faster than him. She reached out and pulled the Taoist robe on the ground and two golden things fell out of it.

"This is a hairpin!" Xiaodie was surprised to pick up the golden-wire phoenix hairpin that Changshou had obtained from the red-haired Liu Er.

The phoenix hairpin was held in Xiaodie's hand, and the hairpin woven by golden silk was trembling as if it was about to spread its wings and fly high.

Xiaodie forgot everything and happily held the phoenix hairpin and inserted it into her hair bun. Then she looked around and looked around for something. But after a while, she sighed in depression.

Suddenly she patted her thigh and pulled out the short knife inserted between her waist. The sharp sword light shone with a dazzling cold light under the sun.

Xiaodie held a knife in one hand and brushed her hair with the other hand. She actually used the blade as a mirror to make a pity.

Changshou looked at Xiaodie's series of movements and was stunned. It took him a long time to react and bow his head and hurriedly hold the ingot of gold in his hand.

But it's too late.

"Don't move! You want to play tricks in front of me again!" Xiaodie's eyes turned to him at some point.

"Didn't you cry and say you have no money? You actually hid such a large ingot of gold!" Xiaodie said angrily.

"This gold ingot is unusable. You will be caught when you take action!" Changshou explained.

"Why?" Xiaodie asked.

Changshou was stunned, and he didn't expect Xiaodie to ask this question again.

"People who can use gold ingots are either rich or noble, and they are rich and noble families. If you don't believe it, you can try it with gold ingots!" Changshou explained.

Xiaodie thought for a long time before she understood the joints.

"Okay, even if what you said makes sense, but these two things are mine now!" Xiaodie said domineeringly.

Changshou had no choice but to accept his fate.

"It's okay for you, but this hairpin can only be put away and cannot be worn to the market. Otherwise, it will be troublesome." Changshou said.

"I'm so annoying! This doesn't work, that doesn't work!" Xiaodie said angrily. Although she said this on her lips, she knew that Changshou's words made sense. So Xiaodie carefully put the golden phoenix hairpin in her arms and threw the golden ingot to Changshou again.

Money is not important, beauty is important.

After packing up, the two of them drove the horse that had been riding all the way into the woods to eat grass, and then they led the old donkey back on the road.

It is still a little close to Yanggu County, so it is better to leave sooner.

After changing clothes, the two people are much more pleasing to outsiders.

The two of them are like a young farmer couple who are rushing out.

At the beginning, when Changshou and Xiaodie were eating and staying in the hotel, others treated them as a couple, and they were still very shy.

However, over time, both of them became accustomed to it. When staying in a hotel, they slept in the same room to avoid being suspected. Of course, Changshou could only hang the floor with grievance.

The Zulong River rolls eastward like the sea. I don’t know how many times it has been flooding and changing courses since ancient times.

The most recent time was that during the Huaizong period of the Great Chu Dynasty decades ago, the Zulong River finally seized the Qinglong River channel and headed north.

I heard that it was from Jinkou Ruhai after entering the Qingbai Dynasty.

But this time the Zulong River diverted the way, creating a water pool of hundreds of miles in radius.

A few higher places in the water pool become island-like existence.

Surrounding them are the vast water surface and large areas of reed marsh.

Changshou and Xiaodie are now standing by the water pond and watching the reeds flying in the sky like snowflakes on the water.

There are still a few small black dots moving on the water surface in the distance. It is the fishing boat that is going down the net to catch fish.

"What a pity. Such a large area of ​​beautiful scenery has been occupied by those damn strong men! I asked about the nearby Yu family, and they said that they can't go fishing now, unless they give money to those strong men!" Xiaodie said regretfully.

While she said, she used the wooden sword she brought when Changshou went down the mountain to tick her clothes. She hadn't taken a shower for several days, and she felt itchy all over.

"Walking east, we have to walk along the water for two or three days." Changshou said.

"If there were no robbers, we would have less roads to rent a boat and go directly from the water!" Xiaodie said angrily.

"Let's go and see if there is an inn to rest for one night first. Let's get on the road sooner tomorrow." Changshou said.

Xiaodie obediently and nodded and led the old donkey in front.

After this period, Xiaodie has changed a lot. She can eat simple food and rice very deliciously, and she is even more pity for the donkey. She doesn't always want to ride the donkey, but often lead it so that the donkey can rest.

Perhaps because there are often strong people here, the two of them have not met a single person along the way.

Changshou also became alert. Although those robbers were born poor, they would kill people without blinking! Unless you are worthless, they are not worthy of their actions.

The sun sets and the sky gets darker and darker. But before I see an inn, Changshou is not only anxious.

Xiaodie looks indifferent. These days, when the two of them can only sleep in the wild when they can't find the inn. Xiaodie can still suffer this kind of hardship now.

"Look! Is that an inn?" Xiaodie said in surprise by pointing her eyes at the distance.

Changshouyun is full of eyes and sees that there are several thatched huts at the end of the road. A flag is floating above the thatched huts.

"It should be." Changshou replied happily.

The two of them walked quickly towards the thatched huts with a donkey.

The closer you get, the clearer you can see. The flag floating above the thatched hut says four big words from Liangshan Hotel.

"It's really an inn!" Xiaodie said.
