Chapter 239: Situ is making trouble
It is actually quite far from the capital to Lin'an, and it takes at least ten days to arrive without stopping, but Mu Xiaojiu obviously can't travel without sleep for ten days in a row, even if he can, his horse can't.
Therefore, it is conservatively estimated that it will take at least five to ten days for Mu Xiaojiu to set off from the capital and reach Lin'an. Of course, because he didn't know when he would be able to get the key to open the treasure over there, Mu Xiaojiu still had to do it as soon as possible. Anyway, he now has the waist card of the imperial court envoy, and this trip can be regarded as doing things for the imperial court, so he can use the official posts along the way casually, and the horses can also be changed at any time.
As for the matter of finding Huang Rong, Mu Xiaojiu planned to inquire in various cities and counties along the way, and also used the intelligence channels of the imperial court and Wanshilou to help investigate.
Halfway through the morning, he set off from the capital, and Mu Xiaojiu didn't stay much, except for finding a small noodle stall on the side of the road at noon to eat something, he was always on the road, and finally arrived in Jizhou City at about midnight.
Fortunately, at this time, Jizhou City had not closed the city gate, and Mu Xiaojiu didn't have to bother anymore, he went directly into the city, and casually found an inn to prepare to rest for the night.
In fact, he could have hurried again and ran for an hour or two, but when he came out, he brought a map marked by himself, which did not record too many locations, and he marked a county town named Pingyin from Jizhou downwards. But it was obvious that he wouldn't have to sleep if he ran over tonight, so he finally chose to stay overnight in Jizhou City.
casually asked for some food, Mu Xiaojiu didn't plan to eat on the first floor, but instructed Xiao Er to bring the food directly to himself upstairs, prepare some hot water for him to bathe by the way, and then went upstairs and went back to the room.
After a short time, Xiao Er prepared the food and hot water together, and Mu Xiaojiu finished eating in two bites, then took off his clothes and got into the wooden barrel to soak in the bath.
Slowly closing his eyes, Mu Xiaojiu leaned against the barrel wall and began to ponder.
If he had spent seven or eight hours a day on the road as he did today, he would have been able to reach Lin'an in five days, but today's trip was obviously very difficult. When he arrived at Jizhou City, the horse was already exhausted, and he was afraid that he would not be able to run like this again tomorrow.
Therefore, according to this point of view, the main thing tomorrow is to go to the official office to change a horse, and at the same time, the speed must be slowed down a little in the next few days, otherwise if the horse really dies in the middle of the road, it will have to rely on a pair of legs to hurry.
Just thinking about it, Mu Xiaojiu suddenly felt as if he smelled a faint fragrance.
Mu Xiaojiu, who instantly reacted that something seemed to be wrong, immediately covered his mouth and nose with the towel next to him with water, and then quietly got up from the water, pulled the clothes next to him and draped them on his body, and hid behind the door.
However, after a long time, no one walked in, and on the contrary, the figure disappeared in front of the door.
Mu Xiaojiu frowned, wasn't that person seeing his figure? But it shouldn't be, the man first inquired about the situation before blowing the incense through the crack in the door, how could he look up at the situation in his room again? Wouldn't that be an extra move?
However, there is no need to say anything more after the matter has come to this point, Mu Xiaojiu was about to go out to have a look, when suddenly he had an idea and remembered something.
Window! The man had most likely returned to the other room, ready to climb through the window.
Sure enough, before Mu Xiaojiu could run to the window, the window of the room was suddenly pulled open from the outside. Then, a young man in white wearing a face towel met Mu Xiaojiu's staring eyes outside the window.
A moment later, the man slapped himself on the head, "Damn, it's the other way around." ”
Mu Xiaojiu sneered, rushed directly to the window, and pulled the man in.
The man knew that he was wrong, and hurriedly shouted: "Dude, you made a mistake!" Really went wrong! You believe me! No way! It's going to be a fight, isn't it......"
Where would Mu Xiaojiu believe his explanation? Without saying a word, he raised his hand directly is a punch, and the man hurriedly dodged it with an iron plate bridge, and then put his hands in front of his chest, blocking Mu Xiaojiu's sudden change of move.
Where is Mu Xiaojiu's fist so easy to block? With just this punch, the man felt as if his hands had been hammered by a huge hammer, and he was directly shocked and fell to the ground.
Seeing that Mu Xiaojiu bent down and hammered over with another fist, the man who had palpitations suddenly slapped his hands on the ground, retreated to the side with the force of the shock, and then suddenly turned over and lay on the ground, the true qi in his body suddenly surged, and his body began to expand and contract with the drum of true qi.
This is the magic of White Camel Mountain - Toad Gong!
Mu Xiaojiu instantly narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the young man in front of him, "Xing Wenxing sent you?" What's the matter, do you want to seek revenge on me? ”
What Mu Xiaojiu didn't expect was that as soon as he finished saying this, the young man actually dispersed the toad skill, and then stood up, and said with disdain in his eyes: "Xing Wenxing? He's a fart, just a second goods, and he still wants to command me? ”
Mu Xiaojiu was stunned: "Then what are you doing here?" ”
The young man tore off the face towel and said angrily: "I told you, I just made a mistake, I thought that the person I was looking for lived on the left side of my room, and now it seems that the person I am looking for is on the right side of my room." ”
Mu Xiaojiu looked at the person in front of him, well, if you look at your appearance, you will be thirty years old, if you don't look at the two mustaches that are similar to Lu Xiaofeng. It's just that this voice of talking, tsk, sounds full of vicissitudes.
It's just that now is obviously not the best time to pay attention to this guy's appearance, Mu Xiaojiu didn't relax his vigilance at all, and said, "How do you prove that you are wrong?" ”
The young man, or uncle, said, "Isn't this simple? Why don't you just come with me? I'll take you to that person, won't you understand when the time comes? ”
Mu Xiaojiu stared at the uncle twice, then stroked his still somewhat wet hair, and nodded, "Okay, you lead the way in front." ”
The uncle didn't hesitate, he opened the door first and walked out, and then pointed to the room on the left side of Mu Xiaojiu's room, "Oh, that's my room, I originally thought that the person I was looking for was in your room, that is, on the left side of my room, but now I guess that person may live on my right." ”
The corners of Mu Xiaojiu's eyes twitched twice, "You're not mistaken. ”
"Huh?" The uncle was stunned for a moment, and seemed a little puzzled.
Mu Xiaojiu pointed to his room, "You're not mistaken, you just don't distinguish between left and right, my room is on the right side of your room, not on the left." As he spoke, Mu Xiaojiu pointed to the room in front of him again, "That room is the left side of your room." ”
The corner of the uncle's eyes twitched twice, and then another slap on his head, "I know...... Shouldn't this attribute belong to the protagonist? I'm just a trickster......"
Mu Xiaojiu really believes it now, and the uncle in front of him should have made a mistake.
"By the way, little brother, I'm calling Situ to make trouble, disciple of White Camel Mountain, what about you?" Situ asked casually.
"Mu Xiaojiu."
"Bah!" Situ made a fuss and suddenly realized, "It turns out that you are Mu Xiaojiu, no wonder you asked me just now if Xing Wenxing's two goods sent me." By the way, you know what? Situ blinked, and said in a mysterious whisper: "Since Xing Wenxing's two failures in your hands twice, he has worked harder than before, saying that he wants to target you and surpass you sooner or later." And every time he finishes drinking, he will yell at you. ”
Mu Xiaojiu shrugged indifferently, "Let him come, welcome him to defeat me a few more times." But just now, I thought your martial arts should be better than Xing Wenxing, why have I never heard of you? ”
Situ laughed and said: "I believe in the supremacy of brainpower, and if I can, I won't do it." ”
I don't know why, Mu Xiaojiu suddenly thought of the scene where Situ was making trouble and quickly dispersed the toad gong just now, and seemed to understand something.
"By the way, you don't need incense?" Mu Xiaojiu looked at Situ who was swaggering towards the door of the room, and asked with some confusion.
Situ made a fuss, and the black line in his head fell down suddenly, "Don't mention it, the last tube of incense is used in your room." ”
As the two were talking, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and then, a woman with a beautiful face walked out of the room and yelled at Situ Nao: "Situ Nao, you bastard!" The old lady recruited you to provoke you, and you chased this girl all the way from the Five Poisons Sect to here? You just said you want to use incense, right? I'll make you fascinated! I'll make you fascinated! ”
While scolding, the girl stretched out her hand to Situ's noisy body and beckoned: "Do you want to sleep with the old lady!" Do you want to sleep with a mother! Yes! You talk! ”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Mu Xiaojiu took two steps back very wisely.
Only then did the woman see Mu Xiaojiu standing aside, and all the anger on her face faded all at once, and she even smiled very gently, "Ah, there is still a son here, sorry, the little woman didn't see you just now, she was a little out of shape, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry." ”
Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, then stretched out his hand and pointed at Situ Nao, "It's okay, you can continue, if you feel that your hand hurts, I suggest you use internal force, or go to the house to move a stool." ”
The woman smiled very shyly, "Childe said that he laughed, the little woman has no deep hatred for this pervert, but this pervert is really a bit excessive, the little woman was angry for a while, so she couldn't help but make a move, and Childe is not surprised." If you don't dislike it, you might as well come in and sit down. ”
Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "Girl, please." ”
"Hmm!" The woman laughed again, and then reached out and grabbed Situ Nao's ear, "Situ Nao, you bastard, get the old lady in!" ”
