Chapter 116 Drizzle out of the county seat

The steaming heat in the tea shop makes people lazy.

Xu Dao ate a bowl of good tea with lotus seeds, peanuts, rock sugar, and fried rice, which made him feel full and happy.

He was sitting on the table, listening to the chatter of the storyteller in the tea shop, while having a conversation with the waiter in the tea shop.

During the period, Xiaoer also came and went, taking care of the guests at other tables, but because Xu Dao had enough money here, the other party's attention was probably focused on Xu Dao.

For a cup of tea, Xu Daohaosheng enjoyed a handful of fireworks in the tea shop, and the feeling of coldness on his body was reduced, and he became more human.

Sipping the last sip of tea, Xu Dao knocked on the table and called Xiaoer over again.

"Since the road to Shezhao is difficult, does the convoy at Liujiazhuangzi have a strong manpower?"

The waiter at the tea shop rolled his eyes when he heard it, and said in detail: "Yes, in the convoy, there are four No. 50 men, no. There are many horses, and there are more than a dozen high-quality carriages nailed with copper nails..."

As he said that, Xiaoer suddenly lowered his voice, and said: "I heard that the convoy also hired a real priest who is good at catching ghosts and foxes. According to the shopkeeper and the others, with this person, this convoy is not considered a meat bun." Beat the dog."

Xu Dao pondered over the word "catch ghosts and subdue foxes" in Xiaoer's mouth, and thought to himself: "Could it be that you are a Taoist?"

"Probably enough. If there are only good mortals like escorts on this road, it will be difficult to survive when encountering monsters. You must have the protection of a practitioner to ensure safety."

Seeing that he had put down the bowls and chopsticks and drank the tea in the cup, Xiaoer at the side smiled and said, "Is the guest officer going out of the city to look for the convoy?"

"However, I suggest that you buy some things in our county first. If nothing else, you should add a few more clothes anyway. You see, it was sunny yesterday, but it will be cold today. If you go into the mountains , the humidity is too heavy, I'm afraid it will be even colder."

At the end, Xiaoer paused for a moment, and said: "Also, if you go to that convoy, at least you have to carry a knife or a sword."

After saying this, Xiao Er didn't say anything more, he just stood in front of the table with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye, wiping the table.

After hearing what the other party said, Xu Dao couldn't help but look at his attire.

When he left the temple of bones, he had already changed his clothes on purpose, and even burned all the Taoist robes of the temple of bones.But because he had no other clothes on hand, he was still wearing a Taoist robe.

Fortunately, apart from Taoists, many people in the world also like to wear Taoist robes, especially some wealthy families who worship immortals and Taoism, Xu Dao, this is not surprising.

Moreover, none of the village shops he passed by had a tailor shop, and it took a lot of time to make a dress, so he didn't want to delay, so he never changed his outfit.

Now that I found a county town, there should be a tailor shop in the city, Xu Dao can go to the shop to buy some other styles of clothes, it will be easier for him to hide his whereabouts.

As for Xiaoer's last sentence, most likely the other party saw Xu Dao's delicate skin and tender flesh, with a completely inexperienced appearance, and he was not very old, so he thought Xu Dao was a dude, so he secretly advised him to be cautious, don't He didn't take his own life seriously, and at the same time gave him a small suggestion.

Understanding what the other party said, Xu Dao laughed in his heart, but what the other party said was reasonable.

Now that he has not completely left the realm of the Bone Temple, it is better for him to keep a low profile, and there is a practitioner in the convoy he wants to partner with, so it is best for him to change his makeup, so that he can pretend to be a knight-errant, so that he can better deceive others .

"Not bad! The donkey is easy to ride, but the cold wind is hard to blow." Xu Daokou agreed, and he took out a few silver beans from his sleeve, and said to Xiaoer:
"Please point me to the tailor shop and the sword shop in the lower city, and bring some dry food with me."

Hearing Xu Dao's words, Xiao Er muttered in his heart: "This guy really wants to walk the mountain road!"

But he immediately showed joy, put the rag on his body, and said in a hurry: "The two shops are not far away, why don't you sit here first, and I will go and call the tailor for you?"

Seeing that the tea shop has a wide range of businesses, and Xiaoer can help with errands, Xu Dao didn't bother to move by himself, so he nodded directly.

………………

Soon.

The sky is gloomy, and there are thin raindrops falling like needles, making it impossible to see the sun at all.The old soldier guarding the gate is squinting his eyes, wondering when he can get off work and close the gate.

Jingle Bell!A copper bell rang.

A donkey ran out of the county town suddenly with small steps, its hooves stepped on the stone slabs, making a rattling sound.

The old pawn looked up and found that the donkey was riding a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, just at the age of fighting fiercely.

The young man was dressed in green clothes, with an iron sword on his waist, jujube wood sheath, linen handle, thin cheeks, cold eyebrows and eyes, he was dressed like a vicious boy, and he looked extremely beautiful.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was riding a donkey instead of a horse, such a character would definitely attract the favor of the little women in the county town.

This person was Xu Dao, he changed his attire graciously, rode a donkey, and ran out of the city gate against the drizzle.

The Liujiazhuangzi mentioned by the waiter in the tea shop is six or seven miles away from the county seat, not too far away.

Xu Dao didn't run for long, and rode a donkey to Zhuangzi.

The nearby hills are undulating, but the road is very wide, and it can be seen that there are often cars and horses coming and going.When Xu Dao took advantage of the twilight to enter the Zhuangzi, the noise of people and the smell of cattle and horses came immediately.

Most of the people walking around in the village were people carrying knives and sticks, and there were several butter torches lit on the field, burning vigorously, evaporating the drizzle falling from the sky.

Xu Dao grabbed one of the Zhuangzi, and after questioning, he set his sights on the largest convoy in the Zhuangzi.

More than a dozen large carriages were crowded, full of goods, and there were people walking around constantly.Among them, there is a table in front of a carriage facing Zhuangzi's gate.

Many people gathered in front of the table, and from time to time, some people stepped forward, signed and pledged, and mixed into the convoy.

This convoy is what Xiao Er said, and it is recruiting the last wave of players, and it will leave for Shezhao's side before dawn tomorrow.

Xu Dao watched for a few times, then led his own donkey, and came up to him.

The person sitting behind the table turned out to be a girl who looked like a maid. The other party didn't look up, and said in a low voice: "The skills are different, and the wages are different. Please show me your skills."

"You don't need wages, let's go with a partner." Xu Dao took out a stack of copper plates from his sleeve, laid them on the table, and knocked on the table, "Is that enough?"

Ding Ding!The donkey shook its head, and the brass bell around its neck rang.

When the servant girl heard this, she raised her head in surprise, and a black-haired young man in a blue shirt with a donkey and a sword in her eyes suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Xu Dao raised his head and smiled at the other party.
