As its name says, this was the first stop for the Qin soldiers to enter Lingnan, and it was also the first stop for the Central Plains civilization to stabilize this land.
Precisely because it was the first city to receive the impact of Han civilization, except for the fact that there are no tall city walls in Shi'an County, the rest of the city is just like an ordinary Central Plains town.
The same tall wooden buildings, the same bluestone roads.
On the streets, Han Chinese in robes with wide sleeves and hair tied into buns are mixed with locals wearing cloth bags and Tsing Yi floral outfits. The Mandarin and local accents come together, which not only does not make people feel out of place, but also looks particularly harmonious.
.
Of course, if you want to talk about disharmony? That’s also true.
For example, on the street now, these guys with unshaven beards and messy hair, who look like refugees, have attracted the attention of almost the entire street.
"Damn it, we're finally here!"
Liu Hongji, the only one in the team with a straight hairstyle, was looking greedily at the surrounding shops and let out a long sigh.
Behind him, Xiao Han was lying weakly on the horse, watching all this moved his eyes to tears!
Old Liu was right, following Ren Qing would really make you hungry for nine meals in three days!
Because they got lost, the food they originally brought from Shu had been eaten three days ago. If they hadn't caught some wild animals in the forest, they would have starved to death in the forest!
"How did you get to Linyi in the first place? Did those brothers who died also starve to death because they got lost?"
Xiao Han really wanted to ask Ren Qing to ask this question that had been pressing in his heart for a long time, but a throbbing in his stomach made him put this idea aside.
For today’s plan, everything must be done after filling your stomach!
A group of beggar-like guys rushed into the inn on the street.
The waiter who was dozing in the store suddenly woke up. When he saw this group of slovenly guys, he was shocked! He picked up the broom at hand and started to blast them!
"Where did you come from, this stinky beggar, get out..."
"Bang!"
Before he could finish the words "get out", Liu Hongji threw a piece of silver that weighed five ounces onto the table. The cups on the table jumped up and water splashed everywhere.
.
"Guest...guest sir! Do you have...what orders do you have?"
The back seemed to have been hit hard by something! The waiter, who was still angry just now, bent his waist instantly after seeing this square of silver. He stared greedily at the silver on the table and kept uttering a series of words.
Inhalation sound.
Xiao Han and the others had already done their homework before coming to Lingnan.
This place is different from Chang'an. Although copper coins are also accepted, compared to Brother Kong Fang who can only be used for trading, gold and silver are the hard currency here!
Especially the white and colorful silver, which has been regarded by the people here as a sacred object to ward off evil spirits since ancient times! Both men and women are proud to wear silver jewelry.
If someone's daughter gets married here and doesn't have a set of jewelry made of silver to wear, the whole family will be unable to hold their head high in the village!
"Bring in your best meals! Also, there are some horses at the door! Take them to the backyard and feed them the best beans! Prepare a few upper rooms and put in the water for bathing!"
After slamming his ass on the stool, Liu Hongji picked up the cup on the table and drank it down without dissatisfying it. Then he wiped his mouth and shouted at the dumbfounded waiter.
"okay!"
Although he was scolded, for the sake of money, the waiter didn’t show any anger on his face!
He quickly took off the towel on his shoulders, wiped the water splashed on the table, and then rushed straight to the kitchen. A moment later, the sound of pots and pans came from the kitchen.
If you have money, you are an uncle!
This is almost universally true!
Under the influence of that ingot of silver, in just one cup of tea, the table was filled with all kinds of food that Xiao Han couldn't even name, with a dazzling array and overflowing aroma!
"What are you waiting for? Eat!"
On the table, I don’t know who was the first to yell, and the next second, countless pairs of big hands had already grabbed the plates on the table!
Ren Qing, who was sitting next to Xiao Han, originally wanted to use chopsticks. Seeing this scene, how could he care about anything else? He quickly picked up something like a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth, not forgetting to grab it with his other hand.
Other dishes! A table full of dishes was snatched away in almost the blink of an eye.
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper! Could these people be..."
Looking at these hungry guys who were reincarnated, the waiter swallowed, carefully stepped back to the counter, and asked the shopkeeper inside.
"Go, go, stop talking nonsense!"
The innkeeper was a chubby old man. Hearing this, he raised his head and glared at the waiter, and hummed: "Do your job well and don't worry about other things! Who dares to act recklessly on the land of the Feng family?"
"Yes Yes Yes……"
The waiter shrank his neck when the shopkeeper glared at him, and kept making promises. When he turned around and saw Liu Hongji draining another glass of water, he hurriedly picked up the kettle and came forward to serve him diligently.
After finishing the meal, Xiao Han, who was so full that he burped, touched his stomach and felt that his stomach had never been so satisfied!
It turns out that having a full meal is also a kind of happiness!
Thinking back on his experiences in the mountains and forests these days, Xiao Han still feels like crying without tears!
What kind of people, you lead the way once, and you get lost once! It was okay last time on the Golden Bull Road, but this time in the mountains of 100,000, I almost couldn't get out!
If the food shortage is only one aspect, mosquito bites are also treated with gauze and sulfur, but in the mountains and forests, the invisible and intangible miasma almost kills all of them!
If Taoist Sun hadn't specially prepared plague-clearing medicine for him before leaving, they probably wouldn't have been able to see the Shi'an County City.
Next time, Ren Qing can't be killed to lead the way. Even if he finds a donkey, it's better than him! He will get lost anyway, but at least then, the donkey can be killed for meat!
They looked at Liu Hongji with lingering fear. At this moment, the two brothers and sisters saw the message in each other's eyes. Next time, they will definitely not listen to Ren Qing's words!
"Sir, the water has been boiled. I wonder if you guys are going to take a bath first, or..."
After removing a table with plates that were cleaner than a dog licking, the waiter nodded and came to inform Xiao Han and others that they could take a shower.
It goes without saying that you must take a shower immediately.
After walking in the mountains and forests for so many days, coupled with the hot and humid climate in Lingnan, my body was almost rotten! Xiao Han didn't dare to smell the smell on his own body now, for fear of fainting from the fumes again.
"Go! Buy some clothes for me! If you don't have enough money, come back and ask for it!"
"Enough, enough, enough! The gentlemen go up first, and the young one will be back soon!"
After finally getting the money that Fang had glanced at countless times, the waiter Erle couldn't see his eyes anymore. He nodded vigorously, and after pointing out the rooms for several people, he immediately rushed out of the inn without knowing where he was going.
