C432 Misty Rain Suzhou City
The shopkeeper and his men were so scared that their faces were as white as paper, and they kept stepping back. Suddenly, one of the big men hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy. "Please spare us, we were blind and offended you. Please be magnanimous and spare my dog lives. " As they spoke, the rest of them also knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Duan Tianya smiled slyly and pulled out his long sword. Suddenly, his expression became ferocious. A cold light flashed and two or three heads fell to the ground. Another backhand attack. The rest of them all went to the west.
Duan Tianya never showed mercy when he wanted to kill. He put his sword back into the sheath, looked at the corpses on the ground, and then looked at the storm outside. He carried his sword back into the house.
The rain had been pouring for a long time. It could be one day, or two days. Anyway, when Duan Tianya woke up, it was already late at night. He walked to the backyard of the inn, took off a red horse from the stable, and rode on the muddy water to run away.
Jiangnan was indeed a place that had been misty for a long time. When he first arrived at the border of Suzhou, it was already cloudy and rainy. According to the innkeeper of the tavern, it had been raining for seven days. It was extremely rare to see pedestrians in the bustling Suzhou City. The originally bustling market was also empty because of the continuous rain.
Duan Tianya found an inn. There were many people here. He asked for an upper room, and also asked the waiter to find a charcoal basin. He planned to roast his clothes dry.
Before dusk, the waiter came to ask Duan Tianya if he wanted some food. The waiter pushed open the door and entered. He stood respectfully outside the door. "Sir, the dishes and dishes have been prepared. Do you want to eat some food and drinks?"
Duan Tianya got up from the bed and quickly put on his clothes. He took out some silver from his bag and threw it to the waiter. "Do you know how far the Bai family in Jiangnan is from here?"
The waiter quickly said, "The Bai family is a big family in Jiangnan. It is located at the border between Suzhou and Hangzhou. It should be a day's journey from here, but it is rainy day after day, and the road is difficult to travel on. I believe it will take at least two days to ride a fast horse. " Duan Tianya smiled and followed the shop assistant downstairs.
It was unusually lively downstairs. There were merchants who were hiding from the rain, travelers who had stayed here for many days, and many people who were carrying swords and sabers. Duan Tianya found a place and ordered some food and wine. He drank while listening to the conversations of the people around him.
One of the merchants said, "After so many days of rain, my medicinal herbs are going to become moldy. "
Another merchant said, "What are your medicinal herbs? The batch of white rice that I asked the Escort Office to escort has probably germinated. " The two of them laughed. They did not vent their anger on this because of the weather.
The conversation of the other brawny man with a thick beard caught Duan Tianya's attention. The brawny man had a big waist and a round waist. His tiger eyes were wide open. He had some imposing manner. He put the long blade aside and said, "The Bai family's Joust For A Spouse Festival this time must not be delayed because of this cloudy rain. "
The people at the side hurriedly flattered him. "Big Brother is very capable. He will definitely be able to marry the daughter of the Bai family. " The two of them smiled happily. It was just like how they were determined to win this Joust For A Spouse Festival.
Duan Tianya frowned. Only Bai Xiaofeng was left in the Bai family's boudoir. The rest of them had already married off. Obviously, this Joust For A Spouse Festival was to recruit a good husband for Bai Xiaofeng.
Duan Tianya was worried that Zhu Lei would definitely suffer a loss if it was a Joust For A Spouse Festival. The Thousand Hand Immortal Child was famous for using hidden weapons because hidden weapons were not allowed in the arena.
At this moment, the rain outside was getting heavier, and the wind was getting stronger. Bean-sized raindrops hit the ground, creating a fog.
Suddenly, the door was opened. A person holding a precious sword and wearing a yuri hat walked in from outside. His body was drenched by the rain, but it could be seen that. He did not care about this at all.
At this moment, he was standing at the same place and looking around. The waiter ran over and asked enthusiastically, "Customer, do you want to stay or drink?"
The man did not say a word and walked straight inside. At this time, Duan Tianya called the waiter over and said, "Give him a pot of wine and half a kilogram of raw beef. There are some other fine raw meat and some fresh ones. " After saying that, he handed a large ingot of silver to the waiter.
The waiter took the silver and turned around to look for the shopkeeper. He whispered something into the shopkeeper's ear. When the shopkeeper heard his words, he was also very surprised, but he still ordered the kitchen to prepare it.
Not long after, two pieces of bloody raw meat and a pot of excellent quality Du Kang were placed in front of Duan Tianya. That person was also not polite and stood opposite of him. He took out a dagger and began to cut the raw meat.
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "Chimei, I really didn't think that we would meet here. "
Chimei ate very well. In other people's eyes, the way he ate was incomparably delicious. Duan Tianya knew that he ate very well. He was a person who didn't like to talk. Since he didn't want to say it, no one else could force him.
Chimei finished the raw meat and ordered another pot of wine. At this time, the customers were all discussing and commenting on his indecent aspects. But he didn't care about that at all.
After a long time, Chimei opened his mouth and said, "Thank you for your hospitality. "
Duan Tianya said, "It was nothing. "
Chimei shouted to the waiter, "I want a clean room. "
After the room was ready, Chimei returned to the room. His clothes were wet. Duan Tianya asked the waiter to prepare a charcoal basin for him to bake his clothes.
Duan Tianya came to Chimei's room and saw him roasting his clothes. Only his pants were left on his body. When he saw Duan Tianya, he was not alert at all.
Duan Tianya said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?"
Chimei continued to roast his clothes and said, "You won't!"
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "If you are too sure about one thing, you will suffer a great loss. "
Chimei said, "I am sure that you will not suffer a loss. "
Duan Tianya said, "Is this considered a praise for me?"
Chimei nodded and said, "Sort of!"
Duan Tianya asked, "Why did you come to Jiangnan?"
Chimei said, "I came to find you!"
Duan Tianya was puzzled. "Looking for me?"
Chimei said, "Let's see if you have escaped. "
Duan Tianya could not help smiling bitterly and said, "Running away is not enough. "
Chimei did not speak anymore. After a long time, he spoke again. "You seem to have settled all the friends around you. "
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "One more. "
Chimei said, "You are so lucky to be your friend. "
Duan Tianya said, "You are also my friend. " Chimei smiled and did not say anything. He continued to roast his clothes.
The next day, the rain did not stop. Duan Tianya pushed Chimei's room open, but there was no one in the room. Duan Tianya knew that the person who did not like to talk had left.
Duan Tianya left Suzhou City. Although it was still raining outside, he suddenly felt that the drizzle was not bad. No wonder everyone said that the scenery of Suzhou City was beautiful.
