Chapter 67 Departure
"Don't worry, then I will trouble you to ask for me."

The waiter put the towel in his hand on his shoulders, "Okay, wait a moment, you eat first, I'll go down and ask the shopkeeper."

Liu Xiaodong nodded.

The shopkeeper went downstairs, but the shopkeeper was not sitting at the counter, so Xiaoer went to the shopkeeper's room in the backyard to find the shopkeeper.

"Who is it?" the shopkeeper asked in the room.

"The shopkeeper is me."

The shopkeeper heard the voice of the shop assistant, and opened the door, "What happened?"

"Nothing happened. The girl who came to our inn yesterday asked how to go to the northwest from us. I don't know, so I came to ask you for help."

The shopkeeper put on his hat, "Going to the northwest? Is she going alone like a girl?"

The shopkeeper didn't know why the shopkeeper asked, "It should be, is there any problem?"

"I have a relative who lives in the Northwest. He sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that the barbarians and bandits are raging in the Northwest. They want to come to our place to escape. Why is she a girl who wants to go to the Northwest?" ?”

"I don't know here, I guess there is something important." The man rubbed his head, but couldn't figure out the situation.

"Okay, you can go to the front and work, I will go to that girl and ask."

"okay."

Guessing that Liu Xiaodong had finished his meal, the shopkeeper went upstairs and knocked on the door of Liu Xiaodong's room. Liu Xiaodong thought it was the shop waiter who had already asked, so he opened the door directly. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper stood outside the door.

Xiang Qin heard someone knocking on Liu Xiaodong's door, and leaned his ear against the door to listen quietly to the movement outside.

"The shopkeeper? What's the matter?" Liu Xiaodong asked.

The shopkeeper looked at Liu Xiaodong with a smile, "I heard from the guy that the girl wants to go to the Northwest?"

Liu Xiaodong nodded, "Well, does the shopkeeper know how to go to the northwest?"

"Northwest is not peaceful now. People in Northwest are going out now. Why is the girl going to this dangerous place instead?" The shopkeeper looked Liu Xiaodong up and down, seeing that it was an ordinary daughter's house, and he was even more puzzled. .

"I have something important to go to the northwest. If the shopkeeper knows how to go to the northwest, please tell me. If not, then I can ask other people."

The shopkeeper was a kind person, and he didn't want Liu Xiaodong, a woman, to go to this barren and dangerous place in the northwest, so he took out the letter sent by his relatives before and persuaded her: "This is a letter from a relative of mine who lives in the northwest a few days ago. The letter sent to me by Tian said that the northwest is really not safe now, and my relatives are planning to come to live with me for a period of time to seek refuge."

Liu Xiaodong took the letter from the shopkeeper and read it, then returned the letter to the shopkeeper, "Thank you, shopkeeper, but I really have important things to do, no matter how dangerous the Northwest is, I have to go .”

Seeing that Liu Xiaodong couldn't explain it, the shopkeeper sighed and had to tell her the route to the northwest, "It takes at least [-] days to travel from our place to the northwest."

The shopkeeper folded the letter, and then said, "To go to the northwest, you have to go to Lin'an City first. There is a county called Guo County in Lin'an City. When you arrive at Guo County, go north and go all the way to the northwest."

Liu Xiaodong continued to ask, "Then how do I get to Lin'an City?"

"You can reach Lin'an City in seven or eight days by carriage."

"Okay, I see, thank you shopkeeper." Liu Xiaodong smiled at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was still worried, and couldn't help but persuaded again, "Girl, you have to think about it, no matter how important things are, they are not as important as your own life."

"Thank you shopkeeper, but I must go to the northwest."

Seeing Liu Xiaodong's firmness, the shopkeeper had no choice but to say, "Okay then, girl, you go to the Northwest by yourself, so be careful."

Liu Xiaodong stayed in Xiangcheng for an extra day, walked around the streets of Xiangcheng, bought some dry food to take with him on the road, and bought some beef jerky when he saw a sale on the side of the road. These dried meat is more durable than dry food. hungry.

Then I asked someone where I could rent a car, and I went to a car rental shop to rent a horse-drawn carriage. Liu Xiaodong wanted to rent a donkey cart, but the owner of the shop said that all the donkey carts were rented out, and only the horse-drawn cart was left. up.

Liu Xiaodong wanted to find out if there were any other car dealers, but was told that there was only one car dealership here, and the other car dealerships were two days away from here, so Liu Xiaodong gritted his teeth and rented a carriage.

After renting the car, Liu Xiaodong agreed with the driver to wait for her in front of the inn tomorrow morning, and then left.

In the end, Liu Xiaodong went to the pharmacy to buy some medicinal materials. The medicine prepared last time was almost consumed by Xiang Qin, so Liu Xiaodong had to buy some more for preparation. The pharmacy still sold prepared pills, so he bought more A bottle of Meihua Diantong, and a bottle of Jinchuang Medicine.The arsenic I bought last time was useless, so I didn't buy it again this time.

Early the next morning, Liu Xiaodong got up to pack his things. Disgusted, he went to the backyard to collect the clothes he had washed a few days ago, and came out from the backyard to meet Master Liu and Lao Zhang who were coming downstairs for dinner.

"Miss Liu, did you wake up so early?" Master Liu warmly greeted Liu Xiaodong as soon as he saw him.

"Master Liu, Brother Zhang, early, I'll go to the backyard to collect some clothes. You are also very early." Liu Xiaodong also replied with a smile.

"We still want to tell you and Mr. Qin after dinner. The boat has been repaired. We plan to go back to Tongcheng today." Lao Zhang said. l
"Are you going to leave today?"

"Yes, Miss Liu is leaving today too?" Hearing what Liu Xiaodong said, Master Liu asked.

"Well, I'm also preparing to leave today."

"That's really a coincidence. In this case, why don't we have breakfast together." Master Liu suggested.

Liu Xiaodong politely declined, "No need, I've already bought buns and rented a car yesterday, I'll go back to my room and pack my things before I should go."

After hearing this, Lao Zhang said, "In this case, we wish Miss Liu a smooth journey."

"Thank you, and I wish you all a safe journey back to Tongcheng."

After talking with Master Liu and Lao Zhang, Liu Xiaodong returned to the room, put the clothes back on the bed, spread them out, folded them one by one, put them in the bag, tied the bag well, and carried it on his back. on the shoulders.

Liu Xiaodong went downstairs and saw that Master Liu and Lao Zhang were still having dinner, "Master Liu, brother Zhang, I'm going ahead, we'll meet later."

"Okay, Ms. Liu must pay attention to safety on the road alone." Lao Zhang said with concern.

Liu Xiaodong lifted the burden that was about to fall to his shoulder, "I will, thank you, Brother Zhang."
