Chapter 474

The sun moved westward and the sky darkened.

On the official road.

Pedestrians gradually thinned out.

The father and son who ran the stalls of the tea shop also had time to rest their feet, put on sweat towels, and sat down on the mound outside to enjoy the wind and cool.

In this way, the wind blowing at night can not only dispel the dryness and heat, but also the smell of sweat on the body will not disturb the guests.

"Shopkeeper!"

The yell sounded:

"Make a few pots of herbal tea, and bring up whatever you have to eat. Hurry up, we have to hurry later."

"Here we come!" The young man was full of energy, recovered from a short rest, and hurriedly got up to get busy.

The new guest was a young son, accompanied by several people dressed as mountain people.

Such a match is rather strange.

Thoughts changed, but the young shopkeeper didn't ask any more questions, and hurriedly made tea and put food on the table.

"How many!"

Brother Young Master was about to raise his chopsticks when his eyes fell on the four guests next to him, and he immediately asked:

"Meeting is fate, why not be together?"

When the four of them heard the sound and looked back, one of the women in red couldn't help laughing and said:

"Brother, as far as the little things in front of you are concerned, let's offer sacrifices to the five internal organs temple for the people around you!"

"This..." Brother Young Master showed embarrassment, scratched his head, and said:

"Ms. Shen was rude, but you have extraordinary temperaments, and I really want to make friends."

On the opposite side of the four people, the man is handsome and outstanding, the woman is heroic, and has a unique temperament.

Brother Gongzi is a character who likes to make friends with heroes. When he saw him this time, he was naturally fascinated and took the initiative to invite him.

"You little brother can talk." Beside the woman in red, a woman in green picked up a broad bean and threw it into her mouth, and said with a smile:

"It would be fine if it was another time, but unfortunately today, we are not in the mood and have no time."

"It's okay!" Brother Young Master stood up, bowed his hands and saluted, with a serious expression on his face:

"In Shenqiu of Xialing County, my father is the hero of the county city. I don't know how to call the four heroes?"

"It turned out to be the empress of meritorious service." The woman in green clapped her hands lightly, and looked at the other party with a half-smile:

"I'm sorry."

"Don't dare, dare not." Shen Qiu hurriedly shook his head:

"Didn't ask for advice?"

"We come from Snow Mountain. You don't even know our name. You just need to remember our eldest sister's name." The woman in green pointed at the woman in red and said:

"Han Jiang Gujian Xu Yunfeng, her name, sooner or later you will remember it firmly."

"Xu Yunfeng, the Lone Sword of the Cold River." Shen Qiu murmured, his eyes gradually brightened:

"It turns out that several of them are swordsmen from the snow-capped mountains. I don't know how to address the three of them?"

"It's true."

He sighed and said:

"Shen also thought about learning from a teacher in his early years, so that he could practice martial arts and spells to slay demons and demons."

"It's a great fortune to get to know four of you today!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say." The other party was so polite, Xu Yunfeng couldn't continue to put on a superior posture, stretched out his hand, and said:

"Second brother Xia Houren, swordsman in white, third sister Ma Tingting, white feather sword, and fourth brother Bai Liang, little sword demon."

Then asked:

"Mr. Shen, you are the son of a meritorious Cao Cao, but you are so busy, what is the matter?"

"It's a long story." Shen Qiu bowed his hands to the four of them first, and then said:

"My father contracted a disease not long ago, and sought out a famous doctor. He said that he needed 30-year-old cold garden grass as an introduction."

"I heard that this grass is nearby, so I can only bring someone here to seek the elixir for life."

During the conversation.

Another passer-by walked into the tea shop, took off the bamboo hat on his head, and sat down on the seat next to him.

"Shopkeeper, a bowl of tea, thank you."

talking.

Put down two copper coins.

Several people looked subconsciously, and found that the visitor was thin, with white hair on his temples, and his appearance was ordinary.

Dressed in a coarse cloth long coat, his long hair was tied together by a wooden stick picked up from nowhere.

Looking at his clothes, he looks like an old Confucian scholar.

"So that's how it is." The second sister Bai Lingjian Ma Tingting withdrew her gaze, and looked at Shen Qiu with admiration in her eyes:

"Mr. Shen is the son of a meritorious Cao, but he was able to put himself in danger and come to this place to seek the elixir."

"Such filial piety is admirable!"

The four nodded repeatedly. Although the four of them had extraordinary cultivation, they were all heroic.

Most of all, they value righteousness, loyalty and filial piety.

this point.

It is not divided according to the level of cultivation.

If not, they would not try to attack a real person after hearing the news.

"Not to mention." Shen Qiu waved his hand:

"It's just the filial piety that a son of man should do."

"The word filial piety is simple and simple, but how many people in the world can really do it?" Xu Yunfeng said with admiration:

"Mr. Shen, did you ever find the elixir?"

"Fortunately, I have already bought it today." Shen Qiu said with joy on his face:

"I'm going back to the county to save lives. It's a blessing to meet the four of you on the way."

"Go back?" The little sword demon Bai Liang looked at the sky and frowned slightly:

"It's getting late today, Mr. Shen, it's best to go to Wang County to stay overnight, and then return to the county tomorrow."

"Wang County?" Shen Qiu shook his head:

"There's no need for that. Shen Mou is eager to return home now, and my father is seriously ill, so I can't delay it for a day."

"Master Shen, the fourth brother is doing it for your own good." Xu Yunfeng said:

"Recently, the road has been uneven, and one night's delay may save one's life."

"This..." The face on the other side was serious, Shen Qiu couldn't help being shaken in his heart, and tentatively said:

"But something haunts?"

"Not bad." Ma Tingting said quickly:

"Sometimes there are things around here that shouldn't be there. You'd better leave after a night."

"That thing will only appear at night, it doesn't matter during the day!"

"so……"

Shen Qiu is not a pedantic person, and he has seen some unclean things, so he can't help but retreat in his heart.

"Senior has a message!" Xia Houren, a white-clothed swordsman who had been keeping silent all this time, suddenly said:

"Let's go over there."

"Then go!"

Ma Tingting got up, took out a piece of broken silver from her body, and threw it towards the store:

"Shopkeeper, Young Master Shen is also invited!"

As he said that, before anyone else could speak, he already smiled and turned into a green shadow and floated out.

The four of them landed on the horse's back, yelled softly, and the horse's hooves hurried, and went straight to the distance along the official road.

"Four!"

Shen Qiu hurriedly chased out of the teahouse, and shouted towards the distant figure:

"Thank you for the tea money. If you have time to go to Ling County in the future, Shen will definitely host a banquet."

"Understood." Ma Tingting's voice sounded from afar:

"Mr. Shen, see you by fate!"

"See you again..."

Standing on the official road, Shen Qiu watched the backs of the four gradually disappear, and couldn't help showing envy on his face.

"Walking around the world with a sword, slaying demons and demons is really enviable!"

"Why!"

Then he sighed and looked towards the tea shop.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Okay, let's hit the road!"

"Okay." One person should be, said:

"Master, are we returning to Ling County, or should we listen to them and stay in Wang County for one night first?"

"Hmm..." Shen Qiu pondered:

"If a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, go to Wang County first."

"yes!"

How many people should be.

It was obvious that they were also relieved.

Traveling at night is already very risky, and with reminders, no one is willing to try it.

…………

It was dark.

Shen Qiu and his party held lanterns and led the horses, and proceeded cautiously along the official road.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, a person leading the way became suspicious:

"Why is there a fork?"

"What's wrong?" Shen Qiu asked from behind:

"Isn't there?"

"I remember, it seems not."

"What does it mean, there is a fork in the road now, which one should I take next?"

"this……"

The guide scratched his head, looked back and forth between the two roads in front of him, his vision seemed to be blurred, and then he pointed out:

"Go this way!"

"Follow!"

A group of people followed immediately.

The road got wider and wider until it reached the avenue again, but no one noticed that the sound of insects and birds had disappeared from their ears.

Not long.

A group of people came to a county gate before the gate was opened, and the inside was empty.

The red lanterns illuminated the top of the city gate, and three large characters covered in dusty cobwebs appeared.

"Yin... Yinshan County?"

"Isn't it Wang County?"

"Since when did there become a Yinshan county here?"

For a moment, the crowd couldn't help but fell into chaos, and everyone huddled together with fear in their eyes.

"How many."

At this time, a person came over with a lantern from behind the city gate:

"But passers-by?"

"You... who are you?" Shen Qiu acted boldly, opened his mouth and asked:

"What is this place?"

"The villain is a servant at the inn in the county seat, and here, of course, is Yinshan County." The visitor chuckled:

"Everyone, don't be afraid."

"Yinshan County has existed for a long time, but there was a plague in the county a few years ago, and the people were killed and injured. It has long been deserted, and gradually it is unknown."

"Fortunately, there are villages nearby, and sometimes there are merchants passing by. My master opened an inn in the county town. First, it is convenient for passers-by, and second, it can earn some money."

"Really?" Shen Qiu's eyes were confused, and he felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

"Of course." The boy nodded:

"If you don't believe me, why don't you go to the inn with the villain to have a look, there are guest officials there."

"There are many people and it's lively, so I don't have to be afraid."

As he spoke, he smiled lowly, turned around and walked towards the county seat.

"Master." In the crowd, someone timidly said:

"what should we do?"

"Follow!" Shen Qiu gritted his teeth and said:

"With so many of us, we are still afraid that he will fail. Even if we encounter dirty things, we are full of yang, so we are not afraid."

"Yep!"

"Walk!"

A group of people encouraged each other and followed into the county.

Just after crossing the threshold of the county seat, Shen Qiu felt a sudden chill, and subconsciously tightened his clothes.

Not long.

When everyone walked to the inn, the four horses in front of the inn made him look puzzled.

What, looks familiar?

"Master Shen!"

The familiar voice confirmed Shen Qiu's thoughts, but the voice sounded a bit cold right now:

"Didn't I warn you not to drive at night?"

"Ma'am!" Shen Qiu's eyes lit up, and he bowed his hands to the four figures in the inn:

"Miss Xu, there are two brothers, we meet again."

"Shen originally planned to stay overnight in Wang County temporarily, but..."

He sighed helplessly, pointed at a young servant behind him, and said:

"The news came from the family that my father's condition had changed and he was in urgent need of medicine, so he had to rush on the road at night."

"You are really..." Ma Tingting stomped her feet angrily, but she couldn't reprimand her, only her forehead was sweating:

"What should I do next?"

"What should I do?" Shen Qiu was taken aback.

"There will be a turmoil here later. Mr. Shen is not strong, so I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it." White-clothed swordsman Xia Houren placed a long sword on the table in front of him. The sword was out of its sheath and was gently wiping it:

"Master Shen, you came at the wrong time."

During the conversation.

"Da da……"

Subtle footsteps came from outside, getting closer.

"Another coming?"

The four swordsmen of Tianshan all frowned.

Just one Shen Qiu, and some servants, already gave them a headache, and they didn't expect there to be others.

"clatter……"

The sound of footsteps stopped in front of the inn, Mo Qiu raised his head, glanced at the few people, nodded slightly to signal, and continued to move forward.

Looking in the direction, it is the county government office of Yinshan County.
