Chapter 248 Border Longze Town



Chapter 248 Border Longze Town

Jiang Yi blushed: "You are so young, why are you still worrying about these things?"

Xue Qing looked at Jiang Yi and said, "You mean we are not qualified?"

Of course Jiang Yi didn't mean that. Hearing Xue Qing say that, he quickly denied it: "Qing'er, that's not what I meant. I mean... you are still young..."

Gao Yi, who was riding a horse not far away, suddenly started sneezing.

After more than twenty days of traveling, they finally arrived at a small border town, where many foreign people with blue eyes, high noses, yellow hair, etc. had already appeared.

Cheng Niu was afraid that Xue Qing would be scared when seeing these people, so he found Xue Qing before entering the town and said, "Miss Wu, we are about to enter Longze Town in Runquan County. There is a lot of trade here, and there will be some foreigners. Those people look very different from us Da Zhou people. If you see them, don't be afraid."

The handsome face from Xue Qing's past life memory emerged in his mind.

But he nodded to Cheng Niu with a serious face and said, "Brother Cheng, don't worry, I won't look at them!"

Jiang Yi was very curious about what kind of person he looked like, and even asked Cheng Niu to come over specially to report in advance.

The group arrived at Longze Town. Xue Qing and Jiang Yi got off the carriage not far from the town. They dressed as men and entered the town with the people in the team.

The town is different from the county town. It has no city gates. When you walk into the area belonging to Longze Town, you will see sparsely populated houses. Walking towards the center of the town, it gradually becomes lively.

The prosperity here is comparable to that of a county town. There are many shops on both sides of the main street, and most of them are two-story and three-story buildings.

Frequent trade exchanges have greatly boosted the local economy.

Gao Yi and the others from Wenxiangju came up from behind and said, "Guard Cheng, can we stay in the same inn with you?"

Cheng Niu turned around and saw Gao Yi and the people behind him, and something strange flashed through his mind.

But he did not refuse: "We feel more at ease living with Brother Gao."

Gao Yi unknowingly walked to a position half a foot behind Xue Qing.

Xue Qing turned his head and looked at Gao Yi. For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity towards Gao Yi.

The owner of the Bafang Inn was tall, with curly black hair, half of which was tied up on top of his head and the other half fell on his shoulders.

A dark red robe with an exotic style!

It was noon at this time, and the hall was already bustling with people, with the language of the Great Zhou and foreign dialects intertwined.

When the shopkeeper saw the thick cotton curtain being lifted, he quickly stood up to greet them.

"Guard Cheng! Welcome, welcome!" When the shopkeeper saw that it was an acquaintance, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Soon after, Xue Qing, Jiang Yi, Gao Yi and others entered the inn.

When Xue Qing came in and saw the shopkeeper, his eyes lit up. He was a mixed-race child!

Cheng Niu clasped his hands together and said, "Manager Xu, long time no see!"

This subtle expression did not escape the eyes of Shopkeeper Xu, who turned around and clasped his fists towards Xue Qing.

Xue Qing also clasped his fists towards him generously.

Cheng Niu said directly: "Manager Xu, I want four upper rooms this time."

Shopkeeper Xu walked back to the counter and checked the room. After a moment, he looked up and said to Cheng Niu: "Guard Cheng, there are only three upper rooms and one middle room. Look..."

Cheng Niu looked at Gao Yi and said, "You are bringing so many people with you, so I can only give you a room at the upper floor. If you can't accept it, you can only look for another inn."

Gao Yi immediately said: "We can just have an upper room and a middle room." After saying that, he took out some loose change and put it on the counter.

Cheng Niu took out five taels of silver and put them on the counter. Manager Xu kept the silver and took out four keys and gave them to Cheng Niu.

After distributing the keys, they went upstairs. Xue Qing and Jiang Yi's room was right in the middle, with Cheng Niu and Gao Yi's rooms on either side.

Shopkeeper Xu looked at the backs of the few people with a smile on his face.

After Xue Qing reached the corridor on the second floor, he suddenly turned his head and saw Shopkeeper Xu looking at him. He then gave him a look that seemed to be a smile.

Shopkeeper Xu lowered his head in embarrassment.

They will rest here today and set off again early tomorrow morning. It will take them another ten days to reach the heart of the Western Regions.

Jiang Yi asked Cheng Niu curiously, "Guard Cheng, why does Shopkeeper Xu look so different from the people of our Great Zhou?"

Cheng Niu replied: "Manager Xu's father is from our Great Zhou, and his mother is from the Western Regions. There are many intermarriages between people from the Great Zhou and the Western Regions here."

Jiang nodded.

Gao Yi didn't say much and went straight into his room, and the middle room was given to the other people who came to Wenxiangju with him.

When Xue Qing and Jiang Yi entered the room, it was already filled with exotic atmosphere. After resting for half an hour, they prepared to go for a walk on the street.

The two walked into a snack bar. The specialty of this shop was that it had both food from the Great Zhou Dynasty and food from the Western Regions.

The shop was not big and it was already past dinner time. When I went in, I saw only a waiter sitting there listlessly.

Seeing someone coming in, he glanced at them and said weakly, "What time is it to come to eat? Look at the menu and see what you want to eat."

Xue Qing took a look and wondered why the business was so slow. Who would come to eat here?

Jiang saw that Xue Qing didn't look very good, so he stepped forward and asked, "Why are you so rude, waiter?"

When the waiter heard Jiang Yi's words, he raised his foot and said, "What do you mean by rude? Don't you see what time it is?"

Xue Qing looked at the waiter coldly. Why did this rudeness give him a sense of déjà vu?

"With your attitude, no wonder the place is so deserted. We won't eat here anymore. I hope you close down soon!" Xue Qing said and pulled Xue Qing out the door.

The waiter saw the two men leaving the store and chased after them, yelling, "You two stinky beggars, I'll starve you to death!"

Just as he was cursing, he heard a dull voice from behind: "What are you doing?"

The waiter shrank his neck, knowing that the boss had arrived. He slowly turned around and saw the boss and his wife standing behind him glaring at him.

I quickly put on a smiling face and said, "Boss, Madam, you don't know that two beggars came just now. I didn't give them anything, and they even cursed us to close early."

"Which beggar is so bold!" screamed the proprietress.

When the waiter saw the proprietress's expression, he knew the battle had shifted, and he immediately stretched out his arm and pointed at the backs of Xue Qing and Jiang Yi not far away.

The woman looked in the direction the waiter pointed. It would have been fine if she hadn't looked, but after she looked, she involuntarily took a few steps forward and took another careful look to see if it was the person she was thinking of.

And this person was Su Mei, who was locked up in the woodshed by Wu Tong, and then secretly ran away with the Guo brothers.

The man next to him was the former shopkeeper Guo from Wenxiangju.

Su Mei did not recognize Xue Qing. After all, Xue Qing had changed a lot from height to appearance.
