Chapter 491
"May I ask the store owner..." I knocked on the door of an inn to ask if there were any vacant rooms.

It's just that before I finished asking, the shopkeeper closed the door of the inn after glancing at me.

This is a small town closest to the border. It took me more than [-] days to get here. It was dark now, so it was naturally inconvenient to rush to the border.

This small town is not big, so there are only two inns in total. I have already encountered this situation when I knocked on one just now, but I didn't expect this one to be the same.

Is it because of the war that these people are a little more wary?
If this is the case, should I change my appearance, at least make myself look closer to Cangguo people.

Thinking of this, I found a shelter from the wind and started the disguise work.

After Yi Rong finished, I went to the one I started with and knocked on the door of the inn.

The door opened, and the shopkeeper poked a head through the crack of the door, looked me up and down before asking, "What's the matter?"

"Excuse me, is there any room available?" I disguised myself as a man, and naturally my voice changed.

He hesitated for a while before he opened the door, let me in, and couldn't help asking: "Now there is a war ahead, why is the guest officer still running here?"

"My brother was on the battlefield, but he has been in poor health since he was a child, so I want to replace him." I lied a little.

The shopkeeper believed it, and sighed authentically: "Aren't you afraid, the guest officer?"

"I'm afraid, but I'm more afraid of losing my brother, so I want to do something." I said moving words, but they were nothing but lies.

I didn't want to lie to him, but I had to.

Sometimes when you tell the truth, others may not believe it.

The store owner was moved by my lies, welcomed me inside, cooked some food for me by himself, and put some wine in front of me, "It's cold today, little brother, drink some wine to warm you up." Warm up."

I thanked him and started eating slowly.

The shopkeeper didn't leave, he kept looking at me, and said after a long time, "Do you really want to go, little brother?"
