Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 20 The Lonely Woman on a Snowy Night (for collection and further reading)
Zhao Ya found Tan Dong, and told him to go to his home after the meeting, and tell Tang Zui'er that he was going out for a few days to walk the darts, and told her not to worry, and to go out as little as possible after he left.

Tan Dong naturally agreed.

After dealing with these chores, Zhao Ya followed the escort car on the road.

Going out of the city, you can see the barren fields, withered vegetation, and a desolate scene.

But there were far fewer dead bodies along the road.

After walking for a whole day, Zhao Ya and the others finally arrived at the first settlement more than 100 miles away from Dancing Elephant City in the evening.

This is a small inn, and the conditions are far from good.

But when you are away from home, it is not easy to find a place to sleep safely, and everyone will not expect anything else.

Luo Qiang was quite familiar with the shopkeeper of this inn. After all, this was a common escort route, and he had to know which inns and restaurants along the way were good and which ones were safe.

And after you get used to it, you won't change it easily.

This inn is one of them.

"Head Luo, who is in his senior year, also came out to walk the escort in person." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Oh, there's no other way. Otherwise, who would want to go out all the way to drink the cool breeze? It's better for you as the shopkeeper. The wind won't blow and the rain won't catch you."

"Boss Luo, don't make fun of me. My small business is nothing more than making a living. I can't compare to you."

After a few pleasantries, a waiter brought out hot meals.

To be honest, the taste of this meal is very average, and it can't even catch up with Tang Zui'er's cooking skills.

But Zhao Ya still ate deliciously.

After all, in this cold and twelfth lunar month, it would be nice to have a bite of hot rice.

After dinner, the staff had already arranged the rooms, Luo Qiang arranged the guards on duty at night, and the rest hurried back to their rooms to rest.

Zhao Ya received the duty of guarding in the second half of the night, and Zhou Hua was with him.

Speaking of this, I have to mention that one and a half months ago, Zhou Hua finally achieved great success in bone refining and became a traveler.

However, compared to Wei Yu, Zhao Ya and others, his breakthrough seemed unremarkable, so it didn't attract much attention.

And Zhou Hua also became more and more taciturn, not even saying a word to others all day long.

This kind of character also makes him more and more marginal.

Even the simple task of guarding the bodyguard this time, no one wants to go with him.

In the end, it was Zhao Ya who took the initiative to ask for Ying, which relieved the embarrassment at that time.

Zhao Ya slept until midnight, and got up without being reminded by others.

After arriving at the room where the dart silver was stored, Zhou Hua had already arrived.

"Brother Zhao, you've worked hard!" Luo Feng laughed.

Zhao Ya waved his hand, "Go to sleep."

Only then did Luo Feng and another traveler leave.

It was very cold in the room. Although Zhao Ya was not afraid of the cold and heat, he still covered the doors and windows, and found a chair to sit down.

Zhou Hua found a corner and sat on the floor.

Both were silent
Zhou Hua didn't speak, Zhao Ya naturally didn't bother to talk to him, instead he thought about his recent experience in martial arts.

Time passed by, and the room was getting colder and colder.

There was a lot of wind outside the window, Zhao Ya walked to the door and took a look, only to find that it was snowing outside.

The goose feather snow soon turned the ground white.

With such a violent wind and heavy snow, Zhao Ya couldn't help feeling a little bit bitter.

If it snows all night, they won't be able to travel tomorrow.

At this time, Luo Qiang also came.

His face was not good-looking either.

This sudden heavy snow completely disrupted his plan.

If this misses the date of the exchange of darts, it will be troublesome.

"Is there anything wrong?" Luo Qiang asked.

Zhao Ya shook his head, "Everything is normal."

Luo Qiang looked around, and after confirming that the seal on the dart box hadn't been moved, he also stood in front of the window.

"Hey, I hope this snow will stop falling, otherwise we really won't be able to leave tomorrow."

"Yes, I hope there will be no more downloads." Zhao Ya agreed, and then there was a long silence.

"Uncle Luo, you should go to rest quickly, there is nothing anyone can do if it is going to snow, and there is no use worrying about it."

"Well! Then I'm leaving."

Luo Qiang was about to leave.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door in the front yard of the inn.

Zhao Ya was taken aback.

Who will knock on the door on a snowy night?

Luo Qiang's expression changed even more.

"You are here to watch over the bodyguard, I'll go ahead and see what's going on."

"Okay, Uncle Luo, be careful."

Luo Qiang walked quickly to the front yard.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the inn was also awakened, and he and Luo Qiang came to the door.

"Who is knocking on the door so late?"

A delicate female voice came from outside the door.

"Shopkeeper, I am a person on the road. I lost my way and missed the place, so I disturb you late at night. Please open the door and let me in."

woman?

Still a woman traveling alone.

Both the shopkeeper and Luo Qiang were a little surprised.

But for the sake of safety, the shopkeeper moved a stool and looked out from the small window above the door.

really.

A woman stood in the snow outside the door.

The woman was wearing a silver-white cloak, and there was a horse beside her.

After confirming that there was no one else around, the shopkeeper carefully opened the door.

The woman came in and lifted the cloak from her head.

At this moment, even the well-informed Luo Qiang couldn't help being taken aback.

Because this woman is so beautiful.

Especially those pair of water-cut eyes, it makes people forget the vulgarity.

The shopkeeper was also a little speechless, but he quickly reacted.

"This female guest officer, do you want to stay in the hotel?"

"Well! Is there anything to eat, prepare some for me first."

"Also, my horse needs to be washed and drank for a walk, and you won't lose the money."

"Yes, yes, I will prepare right away." The shopkeeper agreed with all his mouth.

The woman found a table and sat down, then put the long bundle in her hand on the table.

Luo Qiang's heart trembled, and then subconsciously glanced at the woman's hand.

The fingers are long and slender, as white as jade, without any calluses.

But Luo Qiang did not dare to take it lightly, but became more vigilant.

How dare an ordinary woman travel alone in this snowy night?

But Luo Qiang's mind was calm. Although he was only suspicious, he still quietly retreated.

After returning to the backyard, he said in a deep voice, "Cheer up and don't slack off in the slightest. We'll be on our way early tomorrow morning."

Zhao Ya nodded, "Understood."

In fact, he also heard the voices in front of him, and knew that there was a lone woman sleeping late at night.

It's no wonder that Luo Qiang is so nervous, it really reveals something strange.

Especially thinking that Luo Qiang said before that when walking in the rivers and lakes, don't provoke women who walk alone.

The more beautiful you look, the more so.

Because since this kind of woman dares to walk alone, she must have extremely high abilities.

Zhao Ya also felt a heavy heart.

After this incident, Luo Qiang naturally couldn't sleep again.

He, Zhao Ya and Zhou Hua stayed in the house all night.

But in the morning, instead of the snow not stopping, it was getting bigger and bigger.
