I want to cultivate swordsman

Zhao Liangcai said that he wanted to achieve success in Qi training before going to Beijing.

But it turns out that's a big claim.

In the last few days of the end of winter, the convoy drove into Tianyuan Town along the official road. This place is only more than a hundred miles away from Qianjing. It can be said that as long as you arrive here, you will be at the front gate of Qianjing.

It's only a day's journey before and after.

And because it is relatively close to Qianjing, although Tianyuan Town's territory is not large, the shops and restaurants inside are not inferior to those in Fucheng. Walking on the streets paved with bluestones, there are crowds of people around.

Rangers, shopkeepers, caravans, and long-distance runners can be seen everywhere.

Xu Zhiqiu lifted the curtain of the car, and before entering Qianjing, he already felt the unprecedented grand occasion in a small place.

The maid Xiaohe also poked her head and looked around, full of curiosity: "Miss, look quickly, there is a man carrying a huge wine gourd on his back, it is even bigger than others."

Gu Qingyue turned around and looked in the direction of the maid's finger, and saw a scruffy young man standing under the eaves on the street not far from the convoy, with a particularly large wine gourd on his back.

Xu Zhiqiu took a look after him, and since the distance was not very far, he could feel the vigorous vitality in the man's body, and his breathing was long and powerful, so he should be a monk with good strength.

Then I looked again, in front of the stall not far away, there was another bald man with a broad knife in his hand, his body muscles swelled, and even in winter, he could see white gas steaming on his body, which was a sign of exuberant blood. Performance.

Needless to say, this is another powerful monk.

And he is also a monk with refined physique.

No matter how far away the crowd was, there were still a few stronger auras, and their strengths were basically at the peak of the Qi training state, but these auras were not fully revealed, and it might be the foundation-building monks.

Sure enough, the closer you are to Qianjing, the more you will feel the pressure.

In a small and remote place like Lin'an County, in the past, except for the half-strength old Taoist priest of Xuanyun Temple, there were no other monks, but here they can be seen everywhere, and their strengths are all good.

If he enters Qianjing tomorrow, it will be even more serious.

Based on Xu Zhiqiu's current cultivation level, it is estimated that he will be no different from passers-by A, B, and C when he arrives in Qianjing. I believe that the residents of Qianjing will not make a fuss because of Qi training monks.

It seems that after entering Beijing, we must be cautious in everything.Xu Zhiqiu thought so.

Outside the carriage, the guards followed the instructions of Qingyue and began to look for the inn, but after asking three in succession, they all said that they were full, so they had no choice but to go to a further place to ask again, but after asking several more, they were still full. Couldn't afford a room at all.

The servant girl Xiao He said with a worried face: "Why is there no room in the inn? What are we going to do tonight?"

The coachman said: "Tianyuan Town is only a day away from Qianjing. Many people rushing to Beijing don't want to travel at night, so they will stay here for one night. It is normal for there to be a lot of people. We are unlucky. Those who came first all booked the inn. down."

Zhao Liangcai said: "Could it be possible to sleep on the street at night? That's not acceptable! I can't bear that hardship!"

The coachman didn't say a word, and drove the horses to continue. There was an inn at the corner of the street ahead, but it looked a bit shabby, and it was not at the same level as the inn on the main street in terms of scale and decoration.

The coachman gave the guard a look, and the latter went to bang bang luck again.

After a while, the guard trotted out, saying that there were still two guest rooms in this house. After hearing this, the coachman hurriedly parked the carriage nearby, and went to look for the accountant with his money bag.

Xu Zhiqiu followed Gu Qingyue and the others into the inn. There was no one there, only a thin man with a plaster on his forehead standing behind the counter and discussing the rent with the driver.

The man said: "Two rooms, ten dollars a night."

Ten qian, listening to this is obviously a rip-off offer, the corner of the driver’s mouth twitched, and he asked if it could be cheaper, but the man didn’t even raise his eyes, and said without hesitation: ten qian a night, no credit, It is also impossible to lose a penny.

The coachman wanted to say something else, but Gu Qingyue interjected: "Ten is ten, boss, we want those two guest rooms."

In Leewind Ridge, he lived in the inns that cost 15 taels of silver a night, so the ten dollars was nothing.

Seeing what his lady said, the coachman paid the money directly.

But at this time-

"Boss, come to three guest rooms."

A deep voice sounded outside the door, and it was also a guest who came to live in the inn.

Xu Zhiqiu turned around and looked, but he didn't expect that the person speaking was the monk carrying the wine gourd that he saw on the street earlier, but he was no longer alone, and there were four young people beside him, three men and one woman .

Xu Zhiqiu glanced over and noticed that these four young people were also monks, judging from their auras that their cultivation bases were not high, and they were all in the state of Qi training.

Probably aware of Xu Zhiqiu's gaze, the four young men also looked over. They first glanced at Xu Zhiqiu, and then fixed their eyes on the Eternal Night Sword behind him.

Only the woman kept staring at Xu Zhiqiu's face.

The young man with the wine gourd on his back didn't pay attention to Xu Zhiqiu, and after yelling for three rooms, he stood in front of the counter and took out his money bag, but the innkeeper was not in a hurry to accept it, only saying that the last two rooms were taken away. Gu Qingyue and others took a fancy to it.

Seeing this situation, the man carrying the wine gourd turned to look at Gu Qingyue clearly and said: "Girl, how about giving up a room like this?"

Before Gu Qingyue could speak, Zhao Liangcai quit, and hurriedly said: "That's not okay, we have quite a few people, how can one room be enough, you'd better go to another inn and have a look."

At this time, one of the four young people said: "We have visited other inns before, and they are all full. This is the last one, so please let me know."

Zhao Liangcai didn't care about this, "Then there's no other way, you guys are out of luck, you're going to be a little late."

The man carrying the wine gourd frowned, and said again: "How about this, we will also pay for your rent in advance, just give us a room to rest, okay?"

Zhao Liangcai shook his head: "No, I am not short of money."

As soon as he finished speaking, the innkeeper rubbed his hands and said, "Young master is not short of money, but I am. If you guys can offer a higher price, I will give you these two rooms."

"Okay!" said the young man who spoke earlier: "Then we will pay two more than them."

The innkeeper nodded, and looked at Gu Qingyue, consciously indicating that she could bid.

Gu Qingyue was a little displeased and said: "How can there be such rules when opening the door for business, the shopkeeper is not afraid of ruining his reputation."

The innkeeper spread his hands and said: "It seems that you are coming to Tianyuan Town for the first time. We don't have any rules here. Those who pay a high price can justify it wherever they get it. If you don't want to, then go to another place and have a look."
