The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 658 Chapter 640 Seven: Six people stay overnight in a small mountain village

Duan Wuji said to everyone: "Everyone bring some money, then let's visit him for a few days!
This time we go to Huashan Mountain, we will spend a few pennies! "

Chai Shao listened and smiled.

"Wuji! You haven't left the house yet, how do you know we're going to lose money!

Could it be that you are the one who deserves it!
oh!By the way, you will predict, brother, stop showing off your metaphysics, let's go quickly!
We all have money on us, and no one cares about spending 01:30 points!

Let's go now!

This dilly-dally, when will I be able to arrive at the foot of Huashan Mountain! "

Several people pulled out their horses and got on them. They left Chengxiang Mansion and ran straight for the east gate, and then galloped over. After leaving the city, several people rode their horses all the way east, heading straight for Huashan, and rushed over.

But I saw that thousands of villages and thousands of households were busy on the road, and the old village was full of cocks and dogs. The countryside was busy and quiet, and the old man was still sitting in the shade of a tree.

Several people watched the scenery of Yantu while galloping on horses. When it was dark, a group of six people had already come out for more than [-] miles. Although they did not reach the foot of Huashan Mountain, they were not too far away.

Seeing that it was getting late, several people started looking for a place to stay.

However, the extended villages are all small villages!

It is really not easy to find an inn!

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, several people became more and more anxious.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "There isn't even an inn here, so why don't our brothers still sleep in the wild?

Fortunately, the weather is not cold yet, so it doesn't matter if we sleep outside overnight. "

Chai Shao listened and said with a smile: "Let's go further, if it's really not possible, we can find a farmer's house for one night, which is better than sleeping in the wild!
It's a big deal, let's give people more money, isn't it over!
Why do you have to live in the wild?
It has become an eternal joke for officials of the court to sleep in the wild. "

A few people urged their mounts to go forward, and they walked seven or eight miles forward. They finally arrived at a larger small mountain village, and the sun was about to set at this time.

A red glow hangs in the sky, if you go any further, you may really miss the place to stay.

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Let's not go any further today, look at the sun is going to set soon, once the sun goes down, we will have to find another place to stay, and that will be really difficult !

Brothers, let's take a look around this small mountain village to see if there is anyone who can stay there!

Let's find a richer family to stay, so that we can have that delicious meal to eat in the evening! "

After hearing that what Wuji said made sense, several people immediately galloped straight to the small village and rushed over.

The village is not too big, and it looks like there are more than 100 families.

After entering the village, the brothers searched the village for a while, and finally found a family at the east end of the village.

The gatehouse of this family is tall, and the stone courtyard wall is as high as a person. The house is not the same as other houses, it is a tile-roofed house of blue bricks!

At first glance, it was the richer family. There were still two bright red lanterns hanging in front of the door of this family, and there were also faint lights in the yard.

Duan Wuji laughed out loud.

"We're going to spend the night here tonight.

At worst, let's give them a little more money. Anyway, we can't leave anyway. If we leave again, there will really be no place to stay. "

Several people rode to the door, only to see that the door was still slightly open!
Several people got off their horses, opened the door and led the horses in.

Chai Shao hurried a few steps, and shouted loudly into the room: "Is there anyone in the room?"

Following Chai Shao's shout, a middle-aged man in his 40s came out of the house.

When everyone looked at him, they saw that this person was wearing a light blue silk dress and a pair of half-new cloth shoes. He looked elegant and gentle!

"What do you guys do? What's the matter?"

After hearing this, Chai Shao laughed and said: "We are going to visit Huashan Mountain in the east, it's getting late, and we want to stay here for a night, old man, it's convenient for you!
Don't worry, we don't live here for free, we will pay you twice as much, and we will never let your family suffer at all! "

The old man saw that these six people were all riding tall horses, and all of them were carrying swords!Just knowing the identities of a few people is extraordinary.

The old man smiled wryly.

"Several, it's nothing to find a place to stay when you're away from home!

It's just that our family has some errands tonight, so it's a coincidence that you came here!

If you are driven out now, I'm afraid you really have nowhere to go!
Now that you have joined our family, you have a certain fate with our family!

Ladies and gentlemen, if this is the case, please invite them in the room!
Gao Sheng, come out and take the horses of these people to our barn, and feed them with good grass and materials! "

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy ran out of the house, led people's horses, and went straight to a room in the east wing to lead them in.

Duan Wuji looked up, this yard is really not small!

There are fifteen or six rooms in the main room, and there are more than ten rooms in the east and west wing rooms!

The entire yard is also four or five acres in size. Various vegetables are planted in the yard, and various flowers and plants are planted near the windows of the house.

The whole yard is clean and full of vitality!

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Old man, you take care of this yard really well!

Old man, what's your surname! "

The middle-aged man laughed and said: "The little old man's surname is Wu, my name is Wu Jiaxuan, I used to be the magistrate for two terms in the Great Sui Dynasty, so I also earned two small coins to buy such a house.

well!It's really the magistrate of the previous dynasty, not as good as the mouse crossing the street!

The old man has been living at home since he lost his official position. With you coming today, you can be counted as our distinguished guests.

Ladies and gentlemen, please come to our room! "

Chai Shao and the others followed the old man and walked straight into the house, and saw that the furnishings in the house were also very good, a painted table with a big Eight Immortals, and a few chairs beside the table.

There are teapots and tea bowls on the table, and the whole family looks like a well-off family at first glance!

The middle-aged man shouted loudly towards the outside: "Gao Sheng, find some stools from another room and come over, haven't you seen our house has guests!"

The child outside the yard agreed and then there was no movement. After a while, the child moved in two chairs from another room.

The old man Wu said with a smile: "Everyone, please sit down! Gao Sheng, get them some tea first!"

The child agreed and went out, and after a while, the tea was served.

Duan Wuji took out twelve taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Old man, the six of us will live and eat here, do you think this ten taels of silver is enough?"

The old man Wu saw it and said with a smile: "Several distinguished guests, there is no need to be like this. Although my family is not very rich, I can still afford you to have a meal at my house. You should put away your money!

Our family can't take this money. "

The money has been taken out, how can there be any reason to take it back?

Chai Shao came over and stuffed the ingot of silver into his pocket.

"Old man, you should accept it! There are six of us, and there are six horses!
How can we eat and live in your house for nothing!Let me tell you, none of us take this small money seriously, so you can put it away, otherwise, we will feel very uncomfortable! "

That old man Wu had no choice but to put away the money.
