I won't do the task of traveling quickly

Chapter 145 Punish the World (8)

He Yu followed behind the woman, and she didn't realize until she walked in that there was a man and two children who were a few years old inside.

The man seemed a little surprised to see the strange woman coming in, and quickly got up to give up his seat.

"I'm sorry to disturb you." He Yu nodded to them and sat down.

The woman brought out some food from the inside, and she immediately devoured it.

After finishing the meal, He Yu took out a piece of silver in the bag: "Thank you, please accept it."

The woman hurriedly waved her hand to evade, "It's just some food, it's too much."

"That can't be done. I also want to exchange some dry food with you. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to speak."

Seeing her persistence, the woman had no choice but to accept it.

"Then I'll prepare some dry food for the guests."

After He Yu nodded, she went to the inner room again.The children were a little shy when they saw strangers, and hid inside.

At this moment, only she and the hostess were left outside, He Yu asked without incident, "Brother, does the imperial city still need to go north?"

The male host didn't seem to expect that she would talk to him, and said shyly, "If you go further north, you will almost reach Beiyao Kingdom. The imperial city has to go south."

He Yu was embarrassed when he heard this.It turned out that the prison guards had been taking them to another direction. She thought that the imperial city was in the far north.I really don't know where to complain about it.

At this moment, the hostess also came out with a package.

"I have prepared some easy-to-storage meals for the guests, please don't hold them back."

He Yu waved his hands hurriedly and said no, and then the woman took out a long skirt made of plain flower material with a white background.

"I saw that the guest's clothes don't seem to fit well. If you don't mind, you can change into this one. I only wear it once."

He Yu looked down, the material of this dress was much better than the one she was wearing, and it looked brand new.It can be seen that its owner cherishes it very much.

Seeing that she wanted to postpone it, the woman hurriedly said: "If the guest doesn't accept it, we won't be able to take your money."

He Yu heard the words and could only accept it.

The woman took her into the inner room again, changed her dress, and combed her hair in a simple bun.

"The last time I went to the city, I saw all the girls wearing such hair accessories. It's really nice for the guests to dress up like this."

As she spoke, she took out another bronze mirror, and He Yu saw the original owner's appearance for the first time.

The mirror is relatively rough, and the shape is relatively blurred, but you can vaguely see the appearance of the woman inside.

A face that is more than handsome, but not beautiful.She doesn't look very old, but her skin is rough and dark.

But she has a pair of shiny and pure eyes, and the whole face looks very different.

No wonder the man in black had to put a veil on her last time, only showing her eyes, which are really attractive.

Before leaving, He Yu gave this kind woman a hug before leaving.

The woman's family prepared a lot of dry food for He Yu.In addition to some steamed buns and steamed buns, there is also a little baked jerky inside, and a water bag.It was enough for her to eat for a while.

In this way, she walked while resting, eating some dry food when she was hungry, and going to the roadside house for water when she was thirsty, and the journey was safe and sound.

Until this day, she finally saw a familiar city wall.At this time, the number of people passing by gradually increased, and the noise was endless for a while.

He Yu pulled an old woman passing by and asked, "Ma'am, is the imperial city ahead?"

The woman glanced at her and said: "The front is the Xunzhou Mansion. After passing this city, it will take another day to reach the imperial city."

Seeing a row of people standing outside the city gate, she continued to ask, "Then what are these people doing?"

The woman chuckled and said, "It's the first time the girl is here. You need to pay the city fee when you enter the city, and only 5 copper coins are enough."

"That's right, thank you, Ma'am."

He Yu followed the crowd to the back of the line. Seeing that the line was gradually getting shorter, there was a sudden noise from the front.

She poked her head around and saw an official yelling, "Hurry up, why go into a city without money?"

The person with his back to He Yu looked extremely thin, and she said angrily, "You scoundrel, don't you only have a few copper coins? I'll give it back to you a hundred times later."

It sounded like a girl's voice.

The officer pushed the man away and said with some disdain on his face: "You little beggar, why are you bragging? Get out of here."

"you……"

The woman didn't stand still and was pushed to the ground at once, and He Yu saw her face.

She was only about ten years old, dressed like a beggar, and her face and body were dirty.Although the girl's small face was not opened, it looked very delicate and charming.

Hearing the voice before, he already felt that she was very young, but he didn't expect that she was just a little girl.In her time, some children of this age were still in elementary school.

"I'll give it for her." It's just a few copper coins, but she's not bad now.

The official didn't say anything after collecting the money, but said impatiently: "Okay, okay, let's go in."

But the girl seemed to have never heard of it, she just sat on the ground motionless and stared at her blankly.

He Yu ignored her and went straight into the city gate.She decided to find an inn to rest tonight, and set off for the imperial city tomorrow morning.

Xunzhou Mansion has a large area, and the crowds are bustling and lively, which is completely different from the outside of the city.And the people here have a smile of abundance on their faces.

She directly found a well-decorated inn with a lot of people and booked a room.After eating and drinking enough, I fell asleep.

Early the next morning, He Yu told the shopkeeper to prepare dry food and water and was ready to go.But for a day's journey, she didn't plan to rent a carriage.After all, the situation is unclear now, so it is better to save some money.

But before that, I still have to buy a few clothes.The suit on her body is now dirty and old, and still exudes a faint smell.

After He Yu asked Xiao Er, he walked towards Bu Zhuang.She was walking around a corner when she heard a commotion in front of her.

"Smelly girl, dare to steal my money, don't you want to live?"

"What money, I've never seen it before." It was a delicate female voice who spoke.

"Smelly girl, don't be silly here, hurry up and hand over the money to me."

He Yu couldn't help getting closer, and saw several men swarming around a woman.

It may be that these people looked aggressive, and the passers-by around did not dare to intervene, but ran away.

The woman continued to argue: "I really didn't take your money."

This voice is somewhat familiar, He Yu thought to himself.

The leading man shouted disdainfully: "Didn't take it? I want to search."

At this time, a man with a wretched expression beside him said again: "Boss, this girl looks pretty good. It's not as good as us..."

He Yu originally didn't want to meddle in these nosy matters, but what they said later gradually became unbearable.

She walked in, and was taken aback when she saw the woman's face.

Isn't this the little girl at the city gate yesterday?Although the two only met once, He Yu still had a deep impression on her.

Seeing that several people had started to tear the little girl's clothes, He Yu couldn't help frowning.

"Hey, what are you doing?"
