The businessman named Xie couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Many merchants slept lightly, fearing that something might happen to their goods. Upon hearing this noise, the shouts in the room suddenly stopped a lot. Some people opened their eyes slightly, stood up and looked at him, and saw his back leaning against the wall with wide eyes.
The businessman surnamed Xie, whose eyes were filled with surprise, couldn't help but froze for a moment and was startled.
"What's wrong?"
A sound woke up more people.
Suddenly all the businessmen in the room woke up.
A businessman surnamed Xie, who was familiar with Song You, asked, "Did you hear any voices just now?"
"What voice?"
"Who's talking to whom?"
"There was no sound of talking. If someone had spoken, we would have all woken up long ago."
"That's right, I haven't even fallen asleep yet."
"What noise did you hear?"
"Are there any shortages of goods?"
"I'm afraid you're asleep and dreaming!"
Many businessmen were talking, discussing, complaining, or getting up to inspect the goods.
"Maybe I did fall asleep when I fell asleep, and maybe it was a dream." The businessman surnamed Xie frowned, feeling that with his temperament, he would not fall asleep easily during the night watch, "But I dreamed
That Mr. Song, he couldn't see clearly in the dream, but he came here, stood in front of me, next to this table, and talked to me for a long time."
"hiss……"
"What?"
Some of the merchants were surprised, some were curious, and some found it a bit strange. They quickly looked at the table with the oil lamp in the room. Those who stood up to check the goods immediately moved away from the table.
"It was nothing. He just said something and then he left. Then I realized that I seemed to have fallen asleep."
The businessman surnamed Xie frowned, and then realized something was wrong: "It's strange to say that the gentleman not only came here, but also entered the door silently. I was not afraid at all, nor was I surprised, and he was very friendly and friendly.
While he was talking, we didn't wake up. Now that I think about it, it was probably a dream. I don't know whether it was a random dream or whether the gentleman asked me to dream."
"What did you say in the dream?"
"The gentleman said..."
The businessman surnamed Xie briefly recounted the content of his dream. What was amazing was that he could not see the gentleman's face clearly in the dream, but he remembered the content of the conversation clearly.
After everyone heard this, they all felt amazed.
The strangeness and chill in my heart disappeared without a trace.
Just because I just heard the story from the businessman named Xie, I had a dream in the middle of the night. I couldn't see the figures clearly and talked to people, which inevitably gave people the feeling of being entrusted by ghosts or disturbing them, so I felt a little scared. But after listening to it, I realized
There is nothing scary in the story, but it is like a dream from a god.
"Treasure?"
"real or fake?"
"Can you believe it?"
"Is the Taoist Master a god?"
"Could it be the work of demons and ghosts?"
Everyone suddenly woke up and started discussing.
"..."
Only the businessman named Xie sat on the bed, put his hand into his arms, held the square and triangular talisman, frowned and thought for a long time, and then said: "What do you think?"
"I don't know if it's true or not..."
"Whether the mountains and forests 20 miles to the left and right are real or fake? Did Mr. Song really come to you in a dream, or is it a ghost that is harming people? Prepare yourself tomorrow morning, bring some sticks, and go there to have a look and you will know."
"We all listen to you."
"Then it's settled..."
"What else did you say in your dream?"
"That Mr. Song also asked me about the big snow mountain in the southeast. Both the words and the tone of the words sounded like him, so I felt that it might not be a monster causing trouble." The businessman surnamed Xie paused as he spoke.
After a while, he said, "Oh yes, before he left, he asked me to teach him a few words in Western dialect. It didn't look like a lie."
"what did you say?"
"I don't remember this."
"..."
The light of the oil lamp dimmed a little, but no one was sleepy.
Early the next morning, the merchant went out anxiously.
Twenty miles north through the mountains, they found a wolf waiting for them, and they immediately walked ahead to lead the way.
…
As day and night alternated, Sanhua Empress finally took out her water-dividing knife and small flag, and then she didn't dare to put them into the brocade bag, so she just put them back into her robe.
After that, the brocade bag was specially used to enlarge the amount of money, the travel notes written by her and the Taoist, the medical classics of Cai Shenyi, paintings, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, winter clothes and other things that do not need to be accessed at any time. Not to mention other things, it is indeed a red horse
A lot of burden has been relieved, and the bulging quilt has become significantly smaller.
It took two days when I came here and two days when I came back.
The fighting time can be ignored.
The Taoist returned to Yucheng Carriage and Horse Shop again.
As soon as we entered the yard, we met the shop owner.
"Sir, are you back?" the shopkeeper asked in a distinct Western accent, with a very respectful attitude, "I have your clothes, sir. I'll bring them to you later."
"clothes?"
"The palace maid washed the clothes for you. She was afraid that he wouldn't be able to change them and wear them as soon as he came back, so she dried them and put them over here, so that I would remember to bring them to you." The shopkeeper paused as he spoke.
After a while, "She has been here again since yesterday, but she left before my husband came back. She hasn't come today yet, but she will probably come soon."
"Thank you, owner."
"You're welcome."
The shopkeeper finished speaking cheerfully, and waved hello to Sanhua Empress behind Song You, like an ordinary adult playing with a child.
But he didn't know that it was this child who had eradicated countless monsters in the mountains just two days ago.
Song You got the clean clothes and returned to the room. The first thing he did was to ask the shopkeeper to boil hot water, took a bath, and then put on clean and soft clothes. Suddenly, the fatigue of the journey was gone and he felt comfortable.
It feels so good to stretch while walking. Not only the pores are stretched, but also all the muscles and bones are opened.
Then he lay down on the bed, thinking about nothing and letting time pass by.
Sanhua Empress was very diligent. As soon as she returned to the house, she took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone from her brocade bag, and immediately wrote down the events of the past few days, so as not to have to write with the Taoist priest at night.
Let’s start with the roasted rat glutinous rice.
That was the dry food that Sanhua Empress prepared for the journey the night before her departure.
Unfortunately, many of them were burnt and I only ate them for one day.
Then there was a battle between monsters and monsters, using very simple words to exaggerate their power, and then there were many magic weapons and a mountain full of treasures. Unfortunately, the Taoist priest said that they were all stolen and said that she should not be too greedy. In the end, all the magic weapons were scattered and thrown away.
When we reached the depths of the mountains and forests, we couldn't find any of the rare treasures. It was a pity, a pity, because it was only the amount of money that Empress Sanhua could earn by catching as many mice as she could and fishing as many fish as she wanted.
There are also Taoist priests...
Incomparably powerful! Invincible in the world!
As Sanhua Empress was writing, she couldn't help but glance at the Taoist.
The Taoist's breathing was calm and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
The calmness at this time made the fierce battles in the mountains two days ago seem fake.
"This is good..."
Sanhua Empress secretly said something in her heart, but she kept writing small characters one by one with the pen in her hand.
While you are asleep, Empress Sanhua will finish writing her travel notes first, so as not to be peeked at by you at night. When you finish writing at night, Empress Sanhua will come back to play on the table and peek at you while you are playing.
The little girl wrote particularly carefully.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Tuk tuk..."
Two very slight sounds, almost inaudible.
"..."
It's the woman who does the laundry.
You don't even need to look at Sanhua Empress to know who she is.
Although she was just a maid, the Taoist priest was still kind to her, but Sanhua Empress did not dare to neglect her. She quickly put down her pen, stood up with a serious face, picked up the Taoist priest's dirty clothes, and went to open the door.
It was indeed the maid outside.
The maid couldn't understand the language and lowered her head in silence.
Empress Sanhua looked solemn and did not speak. She just stretched out her hand and handed the Taoist priest's clothes to her hand, and then prepared to turn around.
But as soon as she turned around, she remembered it again, and a tangled look immediately appeared on her face.
Finally started to speak.
"Wait a minute!"
The maid who had just turned around and was about to leave also stopped.
Although I couldn't understand what the little girl was saying, I heard the shout and thought it was calling me, so I looked back.
Sanhua Empress ran into the room like flying.
After a while, the Taoist woke up.
"Thank you, Miss Sanhua."
The Taoist rubbed his eyes and felt that he had slept well. He patted the little girl's head, took the silver pot and wine glass from her, and then walked towards the door.
The maid held the clothes and lowered her head in silence.
"Thank you."
Song You's sentence is said in the Western Region dialect.
But there is only one sentence.
Then he took out the silver pot and wine glass and handed them to the maid.
When the maid saw the silver pot and wine glass, her eyes widened immediately.
The facial features of people from the Western Regions are already profound, and her eyes are big and lively, and they are full of surprise at this time.
"These are the silver pot and wine cup that the monster stole from the palace. I heard that the monarch has returned your freedom, but since they were lost from your hands, please take them back to the monarch."
Song You said to her.
The maid didn't seem to understand, but she seemed to understand.
While holding the Taoist's clothes, he reached out and took the silver pot and wine glass. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and saluted the Taoist. He opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again, and just stared at him blankly.
"Go ahead."
The Taoist waved his hand.
The maid bowed again and then left.
"..."
He is a kind and honest person.
Song You looked away, stretched again, and when he walked back into the house, he saw his child sitting cross-legged on the carpet, leaning on the table and writing furiously. His diligent look was so cute, he couldn't help but smile.
"Miss Sanhua is so hardworking."
"Yes!"
"It's time for me to write a travelogue. How about I write it with Empress Sanhua?"
The Taoist walked away as he spoke.
"!"
But the little girl was alert for a moment, and immediately raised her head, staring at him without blinking.
One hand has covered what is written.
"Go to bed quickly!"
"I've woken up."
"I was woken up!"
"I've slept enough."
"Go back to sleep!"
"I can't sleep any longer."
The Taoist said that he had already sat down on the other side of the table, picked up a piece of paper and spread it on the table, and also picked up a pen.
Empress Sanhua's expression remained serious, staring at him.
