Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 563 Chapter 560 Two: The New Inn

Du Chuanfu was locked up all night and slept peacefully all night. He thought he was going to be tortured or something, but there was no movement all morning, and he was suddenly arrested and released out of the town office with a bow and bow.

Standing outside, Du Chuanfu was still dazed, not understanding what happened.

He raised his eyes and saw the carriage parked opposite, so he hurriedly walked over.

The car curtain was lifted, revealing Song Qiu's face, Du Chuanfu walked over, and called out respectfully, "Miss."

Song Qiu nodded, "It's fine, get on the horse, let's set off and continue on."

"Hey!" Du Chuanfu agreed, took the reins from Meng Chaoqun, and they got on the horse together.

The carriage was driven by Ma Liang, and the party went to Zhenkou.

During the march, Meng Chaoqun gave Du Chuanfu an oiled paper bag, which contained biscuits, "We have already had lunch, and the girl bought this for you."

Du Chuanfu took it, and while eating, he also learned from Meng Chaoqun that the girl suddenly ordered a carriage to come to the town hall to wait, as if she knew he would be released.

They came and waited for a while, and sure enough, they saw him come out.

At this moment, the two of Meng Chaoqun still haven't recovered.

I thought the girl was just an ordinary person, unable to fight against the government.

But it seems, like, what did the girl do, otherwise, how could Du Chuanfu be released as soon as he said he was released.

Meng Chaoqun and Ma Liang knew more. They saw the Ling girl who the girl said was sleeping in the carriage swaggering over from the street!
Although I don't understand what the girl did, but I vaguely know the clues, so I feel at ease, right?
The party left the town and slowly headed towards Songyang County.

In the carriage, Ah Ling had a map drawn by Song Qiu spread out in his hand, pointing to a place and saying to Song Qiu: "Here, this is the location, it's only about twenty miles from Ye Town, and it's on the edge of the official road. It looks like it’s a newly opened inn, that’s right.”

Song Qiu's hand-drawn maps are all based on the descriptions of convoys and merchants who often take these roads. Although they are not exhaustive, the official roads, counties, towns, and villages are all marked.

The place Ah Ling pointed to was named Crescent Lake because of a crescent-shaped lake on its back, so this section is also called Crescent Bay, and there are no villages around it.

It is twenty miles away from Ye Town, and forty miles away from Songyang County. Among them, at least ten miles away are uninhabited. It is indeed a good place for building an inn.

She had thought about Taiyueya Bay before, so she didn't make an immediate decision when she was in Liujiaji, and said that she would move on and finish reading it.

Song Qiu sighed leisurely, being preempted.

"Let's go and see first."

After leaving Ye Town for a while, a few horses came galloping from behind, and rushed past the carriage like a gust of wind.

The curtains of the car are kept open, so that it is convenient to see the scenery along the way.

Ah Ling caught a glimpse of the galloping cavalry, and couldn't help curling his lips, "Isn't this a head catcher who died? The case hasn't been solved yet, what kind of county lieutenant came and left! Leave a group of catchers without a leader. What to do?"

"Sure enough, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and the people below are like wine bags and rice bags, and Shangguan is not a good person!"

"Sister Aqiu, you don't know. When the magistrate of Songyang County heard me say that the arrester under his command had arrested the wrong person and ordered him to release him, he almost refused to recognize my seal and said that I was fraudulent. I still want to get someone to detain me, if I hadn't shown my hand to intimidate him, he would not have sent people to Ye Zhen obediently when he got scared!"

"So, there is such a county magistrate in Songyang County, and a bunch of people who don't do anything practical, so the safety is worrying!"

"Sister Aqiu, do you think we should skip Songyang County?"

Opening an inn here, for some reason, always feels scary.

As for the meat-scraping case, I don’t know if someone will be made a scapegoat again. Who is the murderer?

Song Qiu nodded, "We're here now, let's follow the plan, see Zhou Zhen all the way first, and then make a decision. If it doesn't work at that time, then it's better to book the Liujiaji!"

Twenty miles away, not far away.

After passing through two villages, the road ahead became barren. There were forests on both sides of the official road, one after another, and there were more bends.

Immediately afterwards, after passing a thatched field that was taller than a person, I looked up and saw a crescent-shaped lake on the left hand side in front of the official road. Behind the lake, there was an endless grass plain.

On the left is the lake, and on the right is a forest.

The forest is deep and the trees are dense, but a large part of the official road was vacated. The trees were cut down and a pure wooden building was built.

There are tall and dense trees behind it, not to mention, if it is at night, it looks really weird.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and the afterglow hit the building, and the trees were green and lush, so it looked okay.

Ah Ling pointed at it from a distance, "Here! Sister Ah Qiu, look, this is the newly opened inn! Behind it is the dense forest. I didn't notice it when I passed by last night. I just came back to see it today." Here we go!"

After the words fell, the carriage also approached.

The inn looks quite new, it should have just opened not long ago.

At least when she inquired with the merchants who walked this road before she set off, she didn't hear them mention that there was an inn here.

The size of the three-door facade is only two floors. The four big characters of Heifeng Inn are hung on the door, and the cloth banners hanging on sticks under the eaves are fluttering in the wind, with these words on them.

Black Wind Inn.

The name sounds a little bit off-putting.

Facing the gate was the counter, and a waiter leaned against the counter to take a nap, suddenly heard the sound of the horse's groaning, opened his eyes and saw that there were guests outside, and suddenly became refreshed.

He flicked the rag on his shoulders, and strode out to meet him.

"How many guest officials are you staying in the hotel? Hurry up and invite them inside!"

The flirtatious female shopkeeper in a white dress behind the counter also cheered up, squinting her eyes and trying to widen her eyes to look at the people outside without a trace.

Du Chuanfu and Meng Chaoqun turned over and got off their horses, and handed over the reins to the waiter who came out to greet him, "We're staying at the hotel, but is there any room available?"

"Yes! Some of you are welcome!" Xiaoer warmly greeted, took the reins and went to lead the carriage.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and Song Qiu and Ah Ling came down one after another inside, and the group went to the inn together.

Seeing that there were two young girls with delicate skin and tender flesh in this line, the female shopkeeper saw a strange light in her eyes, which was fleeting, and she walked out from behind the counter with a smile, "How many rooms do you want? The upper one?"

Meng Chaoqun stepped forward, "Two ordinary rooms are fine, they have to be next to each other."

"Okay, guest officer, come with me." He said, leading a few people upstairs.

On the second floor, there are two rooms at the corner.

The female shopkeeper brought him in with a smile, and said politely: "Please tell me what you need, what do you want for dinner? Do you want to eat downstairs, or bring it to your room?"

It was still early, Meng Chaoqun said, "Let's talk about it later."

The female shopkeeper responded with a smile, turned around and went downstairs with her waist twisted.
