surnamed Wang

After nightfall, there was a looming noise from the quiet Gobi Desert, and the sound came from the only inn here.

From the outside, except for the old door, this small shop hidden in the depths of the desert is no different from an ordinary inn, but once you enter the shop, even the heroes who have been famous for a long time in the world will be scared Got a shudder.

It was dinner time, and there were more than a dozen men with swords and swords sitting in the shop. They were all thieves running rampant on the Gobi Desert.

These people have at least a few lives on their backs. It is said that such people should dislike each other when they get together.The fact is true, if they meet outside, there will be a fight, but in this humble shop, everyone is as honest as a quail.

All the thieves here know that there are three places in the Gobi Desert that must not be fooled around:
One is the Ghost Crying Kiln in the west, where no one will survive if they set foot there; the other is Qu Xianwei in the north, where General Wu Ying is known for his decisiveness in killing and attacking thieves; the last one is the inn right now.

……

The inn was expanded from a steamed stuffed bun shop. Although the area was several times larger than the original one, both the decoration and the materials were as rough as ever. In addition, these rough guys really didn't deserve to go to a shop that was too delicate.

Although they didn't dare to make trouble in the shop, they had long since lived in the desert and developed a careless disposition. They threw the hundred and ten catty weapons on the table casually, and they would inevitably become arrogant after drinking too much wine. fall.

The owner of the inn has a lot of hands and eyes, but he can't take the other party's head just for the dishes. In addition, these people are afraid of her, so they obediently took the initiative to lose the money without talking nonsense.

The simple inn can be opened for decades on the Gobi Desert full of wolves, tigers and leopards, all because the owner is Xu Erniang. There is a saying in the whole desert, whether you are hunted down by enemies or hunted by officers and soldiers, as long as you enter Xu Erniang’s buns Shop, keep your life safe.

"There is no place to bury people in our backyard."

Of course, the premise is that you can honestly spend money to stay in the inn. As long as the money is in place, no one will take care of it even if you live in the ground. If the enemy attacked, Xu Erniang would chop it into stuffing for buns.

"Er Niang, he won't support himself to death, will he?"

On the Gobi Desert, women have always been more precious than gold, especially young girls, who are enough to impress the thieves within a hundred miles.

At the counter, a graceful woman finally couldn't help opening her mouth when she saw the boy lift the lid of the third cage.

Ruhua was a child picked up by Xu Erniang at the door. She was only two years old at the time. She was dressed in a pink cloth and paired with two brand-new embroidered shoes.It's a pity that the child is not very handsome, with a square face, small eyes, a flat nose, and scattered freckles on his face.

After this kind of thing happened many times, the customers in the store gradually had more fun. They would make faces to provoke Ru Hua, and then secretly bet on which parts the other party would be cut off. In the end, the bettors often drank heavily and laughed , the wrong bet is unwilling to open his mouth to curse a few ugly words, while the unlucky one who is selected will lie on the ground and cry in pain, clutching his wound.

……

The woman in her fifties next to her smiled and said:
"What, do you feel bad?"

……

Living in the desert, severed hands and feet are very common, but being cut off by a girl in her teens is enough for others to laugh at her for a lifetime.

The woman who was no more than twenty years old blushed, and made an excuse a little awkwardly:

When they came out to be thieves, their heads were pinned to their belts, and a few gangsters would take it easy. They ate meat and drank heavily. As for the famous steamed stuffed bun, they didn't even touch it, except for a disgraced The exception was the young man, who was sitting in a remote place and munching on steamed stuffed buns. Although his face was covered in mud, his powder-carved and jade-like appearance was very attractive to him sitting there.

……

Like a starving ghost, the young man ordered three drawers of steamed buns in one go, and hurriedly unscrewed the next one before he finished eating one. When a group of thieves not far away saw it, they muttered a few words in a low voice, and then laughed loudly. Normally, the boy insisted on talking to them, but now he only has Baozi in his eyes.

It was only after that that everyone realized that this little girl's temperament was even hotter than Xu Erniang's. Later, a few people who were not afraid of death said what they shouldn't have said with the strength of alcohol, and they all paid the price without exception.

"Then chop it up, chop it up and throw it out to feed the wild dogs, Er Niang, when did I ever lose money?"

……

Even so, there are still a lot of people who came to seek refuge, such as tonight, they were all chased by the officers and soldiers of the nearby guards all the way, and finally came here to avoid the limelight when they had no choice.

"I just look at his poor appearance, and I'm afraid he won't be able to afford the food."

The poor mountains and rough waters of the desert can't raise Xiaojiabiyu from Jiangnan water town. Ruhua, who opened a shop with Xu Erniang since she was a child, will not be a weak woman who will be beaten and scolded. only ear.

Even the lecherous thieves in the store didn't molested her when they saw her, but they all made fun of her appearance, saying that she had a horse face.

Xu Erniang said casually, but her eyes were fixed on the girl named "Ruhua" from the beginning to the end. She watched this girl grow up since she was a child, how could she not know what she was thinking.

……

It is said that women have changed at eighteen, but this has not been true for Ruhua. As she grows older, not only does her appearance not look good, but even her face becomes longer and longer. Now she is fifteen or sixteen years old. At this age, the length has reached twice that of an ordinary woman.

"It's okay, the big deal is the same as before, just kill it and bury it in the backyard."

Ruhua has stayed in the inn for more than ten years, and she would go to the nearby guards to buy some rice, noodles and vegetables by herself every three days, but she never made a mistake. Of course, Xu Erniang's reputation is not undeniable, but it is more because of the girl's Her looks really don't match her graceful figure.

Xu Erniang was quite kind 20 years ago. Although the steamed stuffed buns were a bit more expensive, they were worth the money. You can have a full meal and a night’s accommodation for a few taels of silver, but now after the expansion, the meal alone costs 80 taels. If you want to stay, you must prepare at least 300 taels of snowflake silver.

Today, the young man sitting in the corner has once again become the target of everyone. Although he is dressed a little better, he is still young. At first glance, he looks like a young man who has just come out of the rivers and lakes. serve as hatchet man.

Satisfied with food and drink, several thieves exchanged glances, and a man with braids stood up and walked towards the boy who was eating a bun. Although the boy was carrying a sword, in the eyes of these bandits licking blood, the sword Designations are used to act as a facade.

The man walked up to the boy, cupped his hands and said:

"This young man, I'm looking forward to the wind. It's best to make friends with heroes from all walks of life. Just now, I saw that the little brother is imposing and has outstanding demeanor. He must be from the world. I wonder if we can have a drink together?"
