Chapter Three Hundred and Eleven Wind and Snow to the Inn

night.

The sky is gloomy and the cold wind is howling.

In an inn hall built along the mountain, a group of people were drinking with a sad face.

On a table in the center of the hall, a big man with a beard on his face wanted to speak but stopped several times, and finally spoke to the man opposite him: "Shou......No, the head of the escort, what should we do next?

It’s not a big deal to wait like now!

You should know that there is only less than a month left before the final delivery date. If we want to arrive in Donglai County, it will take more than twenty days at the earliest. Everything will go smoothly. If we can pass by Wanshan County......"

"Oh... I don't know that it's not a problem to wait like this." A young man in a cloak made of sable fur sighed and replied: "But in this situation, what can I do if I don't wait?"

We have tried it several times. The road ahead is blocked and forced to control it. Every time, it is hit and bleeding. Even with the protection of Jianghu Department, it is still like this... "At this point, the young man sighed again, then took a sip of wine, and couldn't bear to say more.

"If it really doesn't work, let's take a detour. Bypass Wanshan County and pass by Luoshui County." The bearded man suggested: "Anyway, depending on the current situation, the batch of goods we are banning will definitely be late.

Since this is the case, it is better to take a long way to go smoothly, at least there will be no problems with the goods..."

"Stop talking!" Just as he was trying hard to persuade, a middle-aged man with yellow face on the other side of the table couldn't help but scold him: "Huang Hu, don't talk nonsense and disturb the morale of the army! You don't need to teach him how to make a decision!

If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful of your skin!" The yellow-faced middle-aged man's words were very intense, and in an instant, the attention of the entire hall was attracted here.

The bearded man before seemed to be very afraid of this yellow-faced middle-aged man. He was scolded like this and did not dare to say a word. He just silently picked up the wine glass and drank a sip of wine.

"Okay, Uncle Fifth..." The young man in cloak waved his hand and advised: "Brother Hu has a good intention, thinking about our escort agency. It is indeed not a serious matter to wait like this.

What's more, what he said is not completely unreasonable. If it really doesn't work next, then we can only take a detour.

It's a little farther away, but we can speed up the journey. At that time, the team is divided into two shifts, one rests during the day and the other rests at night. In this way, we will be half a month late at most.

Let's do this. Please go to the city tomorrow and go to Jianghu Department to see if there are any experts in the task we have issued.

If there is any, it is best. If you see that if the conditions meet enough, you will bring them over, and wait until the evening at most. The next day, we will set off early in the morning and try to see if we can go directly from Wanshan County.

If no one picks up, or the number of people is not enough, or the person who picks up the task is mediocre and does not meet the requirements, then just withdraw the task and come back as soon as possible. Then we set out immediately and take a detour from Luoshui County.

In the end, we will be late, and at least the goods will not be lost. When we asked for help from the Jianghu Department and the court, we had already explained the situation clearly to them. I believe they will understand our difficulties at that time."

"Yes, please follow the command of the chief escort." The yellow-faced middle-aged man responded without thinking.

"Very good." The young man nodded with satisfaction, then turned his gaze to the bearded man and explained: "Brother Hu, don't be idle tomorrow, and lead the brothers to sort out everything and summarize it.

Let’s see how many goods we lost in Cuifengling before.

Let’s point it all out, let’s pay for it ourselves and purchase and supplement it along the way.

Since the delivery time is definitely late, we must do things better, at least there will be no mistakes in the goods."

"Yes, please follow the command of the general's head." The bearded man also responded respectfully.

"Well, okay! Since the future plan has become clear, let's have a meal now. Have enough to eat and have enough breakfast to rest. I'm still busy tomorrow."

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, and then stepped up and continued to eat.

With a definite plan, the atmosphere in the hall improved significantly. Although everyone was still worried, at least it was not as deep and sad as before.

Just as a group of people were silent and burying their heads, they heard a "bangbang" knock at the door of the inn.

Seeing this, the cabinet installed quickly knocked on the counter and greeted the clerk: "Erwazi, Erwazi! Come here!"

"Oh, here we come!" As he said that, a honest guy ran out of the kitchen: "Shopkeeper, what are your instructions?"

"Go!" The shopkeeper raised his face toward the gate: "Look at who it is.

If it's a meal, let him come in and leave quickly after the meal. If it's a restaurant, tell him that our store has been booked and asked him to look for something else."

"But there are no other inns here besides our store? Where did you let people live?" The guy seemed a little hesitant, and the people outside the door obviously didn't have much patience, and the knocking sounded much more violently.

"Do you care about that much?" The shopkeeper looked even more impatient, frowned and scolded: "Go! Just do what I said!"

"Oh, okay." The guy obviously couldn't resist the shopkeeper, responded and walked around the crowded crowd of tables and chairs, and trotted towards the door. While running, he did not forget to speak and stabilize the guests outside the door: "Oh, here, here! Guest, don't worry."

When he got closer, the guy looked outside through the crack of the door, but didn't see who it was. Then he asked, "Are you having a meal or staying in a hotel?"

"Eat, please open the door." The person outside responded.

Hearing this, the guy glanced at the shopkeeper and nodded when he saw him. Then he pulled the door open and opened it.

The moment the door was opened, the cold wind outside was swept in with fine snowflakes.

The guy was caught off guard and was thrown into his face. Just as he reached out to rub his eyes, two figures walked in.

Seeing this, everyone in the hall naturally looked up and looked at it, and there was inevitably some vigilance.

I saw that the current one was a handsome young man wearing a black cloak, with his sword-browed eyebrows and starry eyes, and a snow-white raptor standing on his shoulders. Following him was a young man with a slightly feminine temperament, with a white skin as white as jade, holding a white deer in his arms, wearing a white cloak with a very similar workmanship to the young man before. It seemed that the materials must be very extraordinary. When he walked from the wind and snow, there was no snowflake on it.

That's right, I believe everyone has guessed that these two people are Wang Yu and Song Yu.

This is the fourth month since they left Jade City, and it is already winter.

Speaking of this winter, the temperature is indeed low. Not long after the winter began, it started snowing, and it was still so sudden.

When I left the city at noon, the sky was clear, but in the evening, the clouds were covered with dark clouds and snowflakes suddenly floated.
