After waking up, he said, "My master has woken up. It's Maoshi, it's about to dawn, and we'll be in Yangxian Town in a short time. My master should stop the car and find a place to have breakfast, or continue on our way."

Li Qi thought about it for a while, the reason why he set off so early was to enter the Tomb City, the capital of Yingzhou, before dark.In order to save time, it is better to continue on the road, and said, "Don't stop, continue on the road. If Master is hungry, I have dry food here, you can take it to fill your stomach first."

The driving master, surnamed Liu, is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Everyone is driving this evening, not for the sake of the whole family. How can I ask for things from my boss? For dry rations, if the owner says hurry up, just hurry up."

After a while, the sun finally broke and it was bright.The car passed through Yangxian Town, leading directly to the pipeline to Yingzhou.Bao'er finally woke up amidst the swaying of the carriage, and looked around the carriage blankly, but still couldn't find things.Seeing that he was awake, Li Qi poured water from the kettle and wrung the handkerchief to wipe his face, finally regained consciousness.

He slept through the night, the bun was already fluffed up, Bao'er learned a lot, but he still couldn't learn the curly hair, Li Qi always combed his hair.Li Qi took a wooden comb out of his bag and combed his hair, before asking him, "Are you hungry, can you have some dry food?"

Bao'er rubbed her stomach, she was really hungry, she had a terrible appetite some time ago, she was not energetic, and couldn't eat anything.But in the past few days, it suddenly recovered, and my appetite was full, and I always felt hungry.The food I eat is always digested in a short time, as if there is a mouth in my stomach waiting to eat.

After listening to Li Qi's words, he could nod vigorously, indicating that he was hungry, the feeling of being hungry is really uncomfortable.She stared at Li Qi with a pair of eyes, watching him open the bag and take out two steamed buns.The light in his eyes dimmed instantly, his face was full of disappointment, only steamed buns!

Seeing his disappointed expression, Li Qi rubbed his head and said, "Hurry up now, when we get to the Tomb City, I'll take you to eat delicious food, okay?"

Bao'er lowered her head, nodded, took the steamed bun from Li Qi's hand, took a small bite, and chewed the tasteless steamed bun in her mouth very listlessly.Then stroked his hungry stomach that was only barking, stop barking, he is also hungry, alas.

Li Qi had no choice but to take out another small jar from his bag.Inside is minced meat and pickles fried with mushroom oil made of wild mushrooms collected from the mountains. As soon as the lid was opened, a burst of fragrance wafted out, and it rushed straight into Bao'er's nose, who lowered his head and gnawed on the steamed buns.Bao'er looked for the fragrance and saw the jar in Li Qi's hand.

The little face immediately smiled, and looked at Li Qi full of flattery, like a greedy cat, almost drooling for something to eat.It was funny for Li Qi to see how greedy he was, and he didn't treat him badly, why is he so greedy.He took the steamed bun in Bao'er's hand, broke it into two halves, put a spoonful of pickled vegetable minced meat in the middle, sandwiched it, and handed it to Bao'er.Bao'er stretched his head to see Li Qi scoop up the pickles, and kept asking him to scoop up more and more meat.

Li Qi was helpless, this fried pickles with minced meat, why give him more meat!Bao'er took the steamed buns with added ingredients and ate them with relish, as satisfied as a satiated cat.Li Qi lifted the curtain again, and went out to give some food to Master Liu who was driving the car. After all, he let people drive before dawn and didn't even have time for breakfast, so he felt very sorry.

By noon, several people had already entered the boundary of Yingzhou, walking faster than expected.There is still about half a day's journey to the Tomb City, and you should be able to enter the city before the city gate closes after dark.So I chose a small restaurant beside Chuguan Road to stop, and I was going to have lunch before continuing on my way.

Li Qi invited Master Liu to have dinner together after he parked the car.Master Liu did not expect to meet such a good owner, and he is very grateful.There is a special stable next to the shop, where you can unsaddle the horses and feed some fodder.After Master Liu took the horses to feed them, they entered the restaurant.

This restaurant is opened by a grandpa and grandson. The grandpa looks like he is 70 to [-] years old. He looks very capable, and he is very neat with a big spoon.The granddaughter is about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she is also very quick at serving dishes and clearing the table.Seeing a few people coming in, he hurriedly greeted them and sat down at the empty table, poured tea, and reported the name of the dishes for Li Qi and the three to order.

Li Qi asked Master Liu to order some of his favorite dishes first, but Master Liu hurriedly said no, saying that the host had promised to eat at the same table and he was grateful.Those who are running around looking at people's faces and doing their jobs, how dare they have so many demands.Li Qi persuaded him for a long time, but he refused, so he had no choice but to give up.

Bao'er didn't know the names of those dishes either. He only knew what to eat, so how could he know so much.He just looked at Li Qi pitifully with a pair of big eyes, signaling that he was hungry.

Li Qi sighed, why did he get hungry so fast, he ate steamed buns and a few snacks on the way.In the end, Li Qi had to watch and order a few dishes.After hearing the name of the dish, the little girl went back to her grandfather.At this time, it was lunch time, and there were quite a few people in the store, all of whom were business travelers.These people who travel far and wide have good communication skills, and they can chat with people wherever they go.

The few tables of guests sitting in the shop were chatting while waiting for the food to be served.Li Qi didn't care too much, he didn't worry until they mentioned that several villages around the border were relocating and that there might be another war.Frowning and thinking, if it is true that the border crisis is what these people said, I am afraid that Xu Qing will not be able to return to the Yingcheng mansion for a while.

After finishing their lunch and harnessing the carriage, they started on their way again.When it was Youshi, before the city gates closed, they finally arrived at the Tomb City.

27. Xu Jin

After entering the Tomb City, it was almost dark, so I chose an inn and stopped the car.Since Master Liu has other driving business, he will leave next.Li Qi considered that they would stay here for a day or two, so he paid Master Liu's wages, and made an appointment to pick them up in the small mountain village two days later.

Li Qi took the luggage from the car and brought Bao'er into the inn.This inn looks quite clean. It has two upper and lower floors, and the lobby below is full of guests. They are probably having dinner at this time.The upstairs is probably a wing room, and from time to time there are guests carrying luggage going up and down the stairs.The second elder brother saw the two people coming in, he walked over to say hello, "Would you like to invite the two guest officers, do you want to be a top player or stay in the hotel?"

Li Qi thought about it for a while, and was indeed tired after riding in the carriage for a day, so he said, "Staying in the hotel, let's go up to rest first, you can bring some hot water up, and when the food is ready, you can serve it up."

"Okay, then I would like to trouble the two guest officers to go to the accountant to register, so that they can arrange a room for the two guest officers." The second brother took the two of them to the counter where the accountant was.

Li Qi booked a room, and the two of them were dressed in ordinary clothes, so it was not surprising that the accountant was just two brothers in order to save money.After registering and taking the key to the wing room, the two went upstairs to the wing room.This inn room is not bad, the environment is pretty good, very quiet, open the window and you can see the small garden that comes with the inn, the lotus in the lotus pond is in full bloom this season.

Li Qi packed his luggage and put it in the room, turned around and found that Bao'er had fallen asleep on the bed, probably really exhausted.The second brother fetched hot water and Li Qi asked the second brother to wait half an hour after the meal. He thought it was better to let Bao'er sleep and have a rest.Recently, he ate a lot and slept a lot, his face grew a lot of flesh, and his whole body looked plump.

Li Qi took off Bao'er's shoes, twisted the handkerchief, wiped his hands and face, and dragged his coat.Because it is summer, the weather in Yingzhou itself is hot, and summer is even hotter.Li Qi opened a window to let in the air, and only put a quilt on Bao'er's stomach.Bao'er was fast asleep, Li Qi didn't react at all.

……

When Bao'er woke up, it was already dark, and he looked around the strange room, but didn't see Li Qi, and immediately became flustered.He lifted the quilt and got up from the bed, getting up so fast that he almost tripped over.With no clothes or shoes on, he hurriedly opened the door and wanted to go out to find Li Qi.

Fortunately, as soon as I left the room, I ran into the second brother of the inn.Seeing Bao'er's distressed appearance, the second brother hurriedly stopped him and asked, "What's the matter, young master?"

Bao'er was at a loss, her big eyes were full of panic and panic, she looked at the second brother, and muttered, "Zhongxuan... Zhongxuan...."

The little second brother didn't understand what he said, and seeing how pitiful he looked, he asked, "What do you want, young master? I'll see if I can help, or go to the young master who came with you, he's upstairs. Down."

Bao'er's eyes lit up instantly when he heard what the second brother said. He looked down from the railing of the stairs, looked around, and sure enough saw Li Qi sitting on a table downstairs.The panicked heart finally returned to its original position, but fortunately Zhongxuan was not gone.

Li Qi saw that Bao'er was asleep at first, and thought of the conversations that the business travelers had heard in the restaurant about the upcoming war at the border, so he thought of going downstairs to sit and drink some tea, and by the way inquire whether the border was real. will go to war.The Tomb City is not far from the border, if that's the case, there will definitely be news from here.

He was really drinking tea, listening to the discussion of the people at the next table, and inadvertently looked up, and saw Bao'er standing at the railing on the second floor, wearing obscene clothes, looking around.The tea he just drank choked in his throat, he quickly put down the cup, threw a few copper coins on the table, and rushed upstairs.

When Bao'er saw Li Qi coming up, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, it's so good, Zhongxuan is still there.Li Qi was helpless, originally he was very angry because he ran out with disheveled clothes, but when he saw him like this
