045 Inn
The desert is solitary and the smoke is straight, and the sun is setting over the long river.
In the endless dust, on the barren and barren Gobi desert, flying yellow sand and loess covered an inn. From the half-closed door, a dim and weak light floated out, reflecting a few withered yellow weeds. Despite the wind,
It was shaking violently, but the stem was firmly rooted in the soil and rocks, as if to say it could survive.
The sky is scary dark, black clouds are rolling in, and storm is coming.
The woman looked at the sky and hurriedly moved the things she bought into the inn. When she finished moving, she didn't even look at the unconscious man. She just grabbed his hair, lifted his chin, pried open his mouth, and poured out the water in the water bag.
Pour it in.
"Pfft - cough cough -"
Before he could swallow it, the water that had just gone in was mixed with sand and sprayed out of the man's mouth and nose.
"Hmm~"
The man's body tensed up instantly, like a bowstring stretched to the extreme, or like a person being saved from drowning. He let out a deep and heavy gasp, and as the breath came to an end, his body slowly relaxed again.
"water!"
He murmured weakly.
Not awake yet.
"Water, water is your mother's size and you vomited all over me!"
The woman cursed angrily, but she still put the water bag to the man's mouth, drank a few more mouthfuls, waited for him to swallow it, and then threw him into the inn.
Then he drove the camel into the house, closed the doors and windows, and sat there breathing out and wiping his sweat.
"I still need more than two hundred taels of silver for this piece of land. However, when I get the things under the sand, I will not be able to control it, and I will enjoy endless glory and wealth. It won't be a loss if I think about it!"
As if she thought of something, the woman giggled again.
It turned out that she had just bought this inn, which was a resting place for merchants inside and outside the customs. Now the Dongchang dominates the sky, and there is a bloody storm in the world. Many martial arts people are making a living in this area. If they commit an offense, they will escape from the customs and do whatever they want.
The business is all about licking blood on the edge of the knife. There are people who have no tomorrow, so they often come here to rest. It’s just that the owner of the inn was accidentally killed when two groups of people were fighting a few days ago. The remaining waiters are naturally worried, and they dare not stay any longer.
, seeing someone wanted to buy it, he simply made a price.
Bought by her.
Those guys were so poor that they just took away everything of value in the inn, leaving only a few rotten tables and rotten stools.
If you want to open a business, you naturally have to take care of it.
The woman wiped her sweat, but her eyes gradually changed. She hadn't paid much attention to it just now, but now under the firelight, the man's upturned face showed some of his true colors when the water washed away, with his eyebrows furrowed and his eyes closed.
"Grass, woman?"
She cursed and ran closer, but suddenly stopped and looked at it carefully.
"Hey, didn't you have an Adam's apple just now? I almost got dazzled!"
She picked up the water bag on the wooden table and poured it on the man's face. After most of the sand and loess had been washed away, the woman's beautiful eyes immediately lit up and she felt her cheeks were getting hot. She subconsciously picked up a cloth and wiped it with herself.
He said: "You are even taller than my mother and are even more rare!"
As she spoke, the woman bent down and stretched out her hand. She reached towards the package behind the man's back.
They were about to touch her, but the next moment her face changed slightly, because a pair of bright eyes quietly opened in the halo, and at the same time, a hand clasped its fingers inwards and grabbed her neck with great force.
"You heartless person, my aunt saved you, but you want to retaliate!" With a deft somersault, the woman sat down on the wooden table behind her with her legs crossed, cursing, with vigilance in her eyes.
When the catch failed, the man did not pursue, but stood up. His throat felt like it was about to burst. He naturally looked at the water bag in the woman's hand, but in the end he looked away and whispered:
"Thank you!"
When you speak, open the door and go out.
"Boom!"
But outside the inn, there was lightning and thunder, and in the black sky, thousands of thunder snakes roared, and in a flash, pale light illuminated the barren desert.
"You don't want your life? If you go out now, you will die. If I had known that my aunt wouldn't save you, it would be a waste of my energy!" The woman was talking, but the man was blocking the door, as if she was afraid of being picked up.
The person actually ran away, and the vigilance in his eyes turned into a smile as the other person withdrew his hand.
Ever since she started this business and was driven down the mountain by her master, she traveled all over the country and met many people. This was the first time she had seen such a thrilling appearance.
"I've been here for many months, and there are only lonely ghosts outside for dozens of miles!"
Just as she was about to say more, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves outside the wooden door behind her. Judging from the sound, there were quite a few people.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Open the door quickly, the gentlemen want to stay at the hotel!"
…
The rough voice kept shouting.
The woman's face changed. "Stop knocking, the boss is dead, the guy has run away, I'm packing my things, in two days -"
"Wow!"
Before he finished speaking, the already shaky wooden door suddenly burst open, and he saw seven or eight shadowy figures standing there in the lightning and thundering night, carrying weapons, all dressed like Jianghu people, and wearing shoes.
, wearing a bamboo hat and thin clothes, the cuffs and trousers were tightly tied with hemp rope, showing a strong and neat look.
"Damn it, how can the grandpas swallow sand outside in such a strong wind!"
They are all men who use swords. The living environment in this borderland is harsh, so the folk customs are fierce, and horse thieves and bandits are rampant. Furthermore, using a knife does not have as many sayings as using a sword. It can chop, chop, and kill.
It's enough to be courageous, and then there will be another batch of people licking the blood with their blades.
"Swordsman!"
What I do is a business of taking money and working hard, doing illegal work, and robbing houses. I live a day-to-day life. I earn 100 taels and can spend 500 taels to go out. Maybe I know that I may be able to spend 500 taels the next day.
His body and head are in a different place, so he is unscrupulous and does whatever he wants, living day by day and committing a lot of evil.
Several people were covered in dust.
"If the boss dies, there will still be a boss wife!"
The leader took off his bamboo hat, revealing a face with scars. On his dark and rough face, there was a thick beard, and his messy hair was stained with yellowing dust. When he smiled, the slanting scars on his face immediately became distorted.
Get up and seem to be moving.
That ferocious smile can probably stop a child from crying.
There are rules in this land, but there are no rules.
"Hey, the boss lady has a sister here? Go and bring out the good wine and food. The gentlemen are hungry and have eaten and drank enough. Your benefits are indispensable!"
Ganqing mistook the man for a woman again, and everyone stared and swallowed their saliva.
These people have no morals and no rules. Naturally, there is no morality. Each one of them looks at the thin and thin man like a hungry ghost in lust.
"Is there anything to eat?"
The man suddenly looked at the woman, and slowly took off the package from behind with his right hand.
As soon as he spoke, the expressions on the swordsmen's faces were indescribably wonderful, man.
"If you kill them, can you exchange them for a few bites of food?"
When faced with a group of strong men, the woman not only did not panic, but after hearing the men's words, her beautiful eyes shone with brilliance. She smiled so wildly that she held her cheeks and smiled sweetly: "If you can kill them, I will keep them."
Let you eat and drink enough!"
"Two people don't know whether to live or die——"
Seeing that the two of them were ignoring her so much, the man with the scarred face turned into a sinister smile. He opened his mouth to speak, but the moment he said the word "live", his vision went dark, as if there was a hat covering his head.
"Click!"
The headless body immediately fell down.
Blood spurted out from the cavity and throat, and as for the head, it had already reached the man's feet.
"Grass, hard stubble, hello!"
Someone screamed something.
"Miscellaneous!"
Several sharp swords were unsheathed.
They were fast, and some were faster. They saw the man tapping his toes, a green sword light flashing in his hand, and he leaned over, as if he was sliding against the ground.
"Uh-huh!"
The sword light came up from bottom to top, and as soon as it appeared, the two of them knelt down, holding their throats that were bleeding.
One after another, several long knives were slashing down the entire body. The man pointed his toes again and turned his body in the air. The moment he avoided it, the blade of the sword twisted and turned. There was no trace of fireworks. There were two more people beside him.
The man staggered and screamed out the door, clutching the long and narrow red wound on his neck, blood mist spraying between his fingers.
This time, only two of the seven people were left, two people who were frightened and pale.
"escape!"
Seeing that the idea was pricking their hands, the remaining two turned around and walked away without looking back, as if the few people lying on the ground were unrelated people.
When the man saw this, he wanted to chase after him, but his feet drifted away and a wave of weakness surged through his body. He steadied himself quickly and didn't fall down.
The woman who had been sitting there took action.
Shake his right hand and twist his five fingers.
Boo hoo hoo.
Suddenly I saw several rays of cold light piercing the air.
The two people who had just stepped out were struck instantly. As soon as they stopped, five or six bloody holes had been pierced in their backs by flying knives that looked like willow leaves.
"Acacia Willow Dart!"
