he walks in the world

Chapter 109 It's More Romantic
When Du Ruo entered the inn, the corner of his mouth twitched violently.

In the inn, Heitou and the other two members of the Juyi Gang were tied to the pillars in the lobby, looking at Du Ruo pitifully. The person next to him was joking.

When these people saw Du Ruo coming in, they all burst into laughter.

Someone explained: "Brother Du, you can't blame us for standing on the sidelines, but Catcher Xue has let go. Anyone who dares to release the black heads and the others apart from you today will have trouble with her. She will definitely visit them tomorrow. "

Du Ruo walked over and gave Heitou and others a bond, and said speechlessly: "Xue Butou asked you to wait at the inn, so you just wait, why bother to make trouble for yourself?"

Heitou was very aggrieved and said: "My lord, you have wronged us too much, we are just worried about your safety."

Du Ruo smiled and said, "Then if Catcher Xue wants to trouble me, what's the difference if there are more of you? Resist the beating?"

Heitou scratched the back of his head and grinned silly.

"Okay, okay," Du Ruo patted the black head, and said, "I know what you guys are thinking, I understand everything, um, let's sit down and have some food first."

At this time, it was raining heavily outside, and many people rushed back to the inn. There was already a lot of water at the door, and there were wet footprints on the floor.

Just when Du Ruo and Heitou were seated, a young man in a tattered gown came in at the door, holding an old umbrella that was still dripping, and a dusty bundle on his back.

The young man looked very down and out, his hair seemed to have not been washed for many days, and the hair on his forehead was hanging down. After entering the inn, he looked around and found that there were no vacant seats. He was going to find someone to share the table, but They all showed contempt.

The waiter in the shop also seemed not very willing to receive this kind of customers, but he really couldn't shirk it, so he walked over slowly and said, "Young master, do you want to stay in the shop or be a top-notch person? If you are staying in the shop, we have no time left." The room is empty, if it is a tip, you may have to wait a little bit, I'm really sorry."

"It's okay," the young man waved his hand and said, "Just get me some leftovers and I can take care of it. As for the housing, just arrange a woodshed for me to sleep for one night. I won't need it when it doesn't rain tomorrow." housing."

The waiter was stunned for a moment, but he didn't mean to be sarcastic, but was wondering: "My lord, there has never been a precedent for our inn to let guests sleep in the firewood room. I have to ask the shopkeeper for instructions, you..."

At this moment, Du Ruo came over and said to Xiaoer: "Your brother, don't bother, this brother will sit at the table with me for dinner, and besides, I have enough room there."

"Huh?" Xiao Er was surprised.

Du Ruo waved his hand and said, "Go down first!"

Xiao Er hastily bowed and left.

Du Ruo turned his head, smiled and cupped his hands at the young man, and said: "Brother, this is the second time we have met, meeting is fate, and everyone has a time when they are not ready, if you don't mind, please move on." !"

Du Ruo noticed this young man when he entered the door. He had a very deep impression. He had seen this man on the flower boat in Qingyinfang, Gusu City some time ago. Simple, but not so downcast, and it was Lu Yang who personally commented on a very dangerous person.

Although he doesn't know why this person is so downcast, Du Ruo is still very interested in making friends with such a person. What's more, the painting scroll of this person is still in his room, and he has been thinking about returning it if he has a chance.

Moreover, what made Du Ruo look at him differently was that besides Lu Yang's super high opinion of this person, there was also the temperament revealed by this person. Although he was downcast, he did not have the slightest feeling of inferiority.

The young man looked at Du Ruo, shook the umbrella in his hand, smiled with great interest, and said: "Brother, you are wrong, this is the third time we have met."

"Huh?" Du Ruo asked suspiciously, "Please advise."

The young man slowly reached into his bosom, took out a few pieces of silver, handed it to Du Ruo, and said, "I came to this inn to pay you back. Originally, I was going to help you once, and then I would treat it as a reward, but I have never had a chance, and now it seems that I have no chance, so I will pay you back the money."

Du Ruo looked at the few pieces of silver, and recalled in his mind that before meeting the serial murderer Chen Yue that day, he saw a very down-and-out scholar, felt pity for him, and deliberately threw some pieces of silver.

Looking at the young man, Du Ruo smiled, took the money happily, and said, "It's really unnecessary."

"No, no, no," the young man said, "Brother's move is very necessary. It's really embarrassing for me to not be rewarded for nothing. Of course, if brother insists on giving me a hundred and eighty taels, I will do it." I have no choice but to give up my hospitality."

Du Ruo smiled from the bottom of his heart, cupped his hands and said, "Du Ruo in Xiashu, the name is Shan Jiang!"

"I'm in Suzhou, Wang Que."

Du Ruo frowned, and blurted out, "Wang Que, the mad student of the three opera imperial examinations?"

Wang Que waved his hand and said, "I don't dare to be a madman. I'm just being humorous. In fact, I'm more romantic!"

Du Ruo: "..."

You are a wave!

Wang Que patted the gown, and said: "Hey, just now Brother Du said that he wants to invite me to dinner, why are you still standing, eat, I am not polite, I will take everything you say seriously."

Du Ruo stretched out his hand and said, "Please!"

Heitou is very good at coming, seeing Du Ruo calling for someone to come over, he hurriedly called the other two Juyi Gangbangzhong to make room for Wang Que.

Wang Que was really rude, he wasn't polite at all, he just sat down on his ass, he didn't care if someone had used the bowl, he just picked it up, ate it in big mouthfuls, and said while eating: " Brother Du, it's not that I'm thick-skinned, it's you who want to invite me, if you don't ask, I will definitely not come to eat and drink, I have principles."

Du Ruo naturally didn't take this small matter to heart, and poured a cup of tea for Wang Que himself, put it in front of him, and said, "I also believe that you are a person with principles, and if you don't have principles, you won't do it again and again." Teasing the examiner again and again."

Wang Que picked up the teacup, drank it down, and handed the cup to Du Ruo, saying: "Have another cup, thank you." After swallowing the food in his mouth, he took the teacup from Du Ruo's hand and said: "Du Ruo Brother, you misunderstood me, I really didn’t mean to tease the examiners, I just thought I should answer that way, but who knows that those examiners insisted on being serious, I couldn’t help it.”

Du Ruo smiled, without arguing, but said: "Brother Wang, I saw you carrying a painting scroll before, did you lose it?"

"En." Wang Que buried his head in agreement.

"Is it important?" Du Ruo asked.

"Very important." Wang Que replied.

"I picked it up." Du Ruo said.

Wang Que raised his head, with a big mouthful of rice in his mouth, he stared at Du Ruo blankly.

Du Ruo pointed to the food on the table, and said, "Brother Wang, continue to eat. After the meal, I will return the scroll to Zhao. Don't worry, it won't be damaged at all."

Wang Que nodded, then lowered his head to pick up the rice again, then raised his head suddenly, his expression became very serious, he leaned forward a little, leaned into Du Ruo's ear, and said softly: "I can help you with one thing, anything, even if You can even assassinate the prefect of Jinling!"
