  Chapter 163 163: Chaos in Xiaocheng (3) [Seeking a monthly ticket]

  The four of them traveled lightly, and their footsteps were not too slow. After walking for more than an hour, they came across a simple roadside restaurant.

   This kind of restaurant is doing business with pedestrians and business travelers. It's just that the world is not good, and I don't meet a few guests all day long.

   I don’t know if the four of them came by coincidence or by chance, there were several cars and horses parked outside the restaurant, and there were a dozen or so diners in different costumes sitting inside the restaurant. Shen Tang secretly paid attention to Qi Shan, whose face was inexplicably pale, and suggested: "I'm a little thirsty, should I stop and have a rest?"

  Chu Yao naturally would not refuse.

  Although Shen Tang was able to turn wine into wine, he was a dropper who couldn't drink wine, and the water bags they were carrying were also empty, so it would be good to stop after driving for such a long time to replenish dry food.

   "Shopkeeper, are there still four seats inside?"

  Shen Tang jumped off the back of the motorcycle and yelled at the restaurant. The shopkeeper poked his head out to look, and the impatience on his face was frightened back—Wuhi, in order not to reveal their whereabouts, the four of them and the motorcycle were re-disguised. Her appearance is still fierce, making passers-by want to take the initiative to hand over the ruthless image of the wallet. If there is a murder nearby, nine out of ten guards will arrest her.

  Well, at first glance, he is not a good person.

  The other three were turned into housekeepers, bookkeepers and guards respectively.

  The shopkeeper adhered to the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and he put on a flattering smile: "If you have any, please come here."

  When Shen Tang heard this, he was secretly delighted.

  The shopkeeper's words made her want to say, "Bring three catties of beef and three catties of wine to Sajia", showing the heroic atmosphere of fighting swords. But when the words came to his lips, it turned into: "Come four seats, three pots of tea and one pot of wine, four pancakes, as soon as possible."

  The shopkeeper's smile froze.

   It seems that she didn't expect Shen Tang to be so picky.

  However, due to the physique of this group of people, he did not dare to utter his slander, turned around and welcomed the four of them into the restaurant, and ordered the servants to clean a low table. After a while, the back kitchen brought out what Shen Tang wanted, the only pot of wine was for Gongshu Wu.

  Gong Shuwu looked at the only pot of wine, although he was surprised by Shen Tang's "different treatment", he didn't take the initiative to ask. He is not a good drinker, but drinking wine is better than drinking tea. The two Qishan looked calm, as if no one had noticed this small detail.

  Shen Tang will not take the initiative to point out.

   What should I say?

   It is said that a strong man like Gong Shuwu is in line with his personal image if he drinks alcohol boldly and eats meat?

  The two scribes drink tea elegantly, and they are not OOC?

  Emmm…

  So, stereotypes hurt people.

  Shen Tang didn't just come here to eat. When the handyman passed by, she asked, "Your business here is so good?"

  The four of them had just started eating when another group of people came outside the restaurant.

  Three chariots and horses, the team size is not small, with a total of ten people including five members of the owner's family. Even though the hostess is wearing a veiled hat, she can still see the hazy face behind the veiled hat without makeup. The elderly gray-haired old woman is holding the infant child, comforting the hostess in a low voice. The two little boys shrunk their shoulders and lowered their heads, with a lingering look of fear in their brows.

  At first, Shen Tang thought they encountered bandits on the way.

  Listen quietly but find that is not the case.

The faces of the other diners in the restaurant were also filled with unresolved sadness. It was obvious that something serious had happened to the outside world, but the others only had the four characters "Do not enter" written on their faces. Shen Tang was not good either. Going forward to make fun of it, I chose to start with the handyman.

  In order to pry his mouth open, he also took out a small piece of silver with a smile. The handyman seemed to have learned the trick of changing his face, switching from impatient to enthusiastic in a second, knowing everything without saying anything.

  He said bluntly: "The hero doesn't know? Alas, the war has begun again! If you want to survive, you have to run away. After passing our shop, it is not easy to replenish dry food and water bags on the way."

  When the four of Qishan heard the words, their expressions changed suddenly.

   At the same time, I thought of the wolf smoke that appeared in the middle of the night last night.

  Shen Tang: "..."

   Which step is fast forwarded?

  She was isolated from the world for a few days, not a few years, right?

  Shen Tang asked again: "War? Who fights whom?"

  The handyman said: "How do we know this?"

   Suddenly a fight broke out.

   He only found out about the news after many fleeing diners came to the store. However, it doesn't matter who fights with whom, anyway, it's the little people like them who are unlucky in the end, and they are used to it.

  The big guys can fight as they like, and the little guys like them also have to open shops and do business to support their families.

  Shen Tang: "Then you should know where to fight?"

  The three of Qishan are also eager to get an answer.

  The handyman replied: "I don't know, but most of the guests come from the direction of the state capital. It should be that there is a war there?"

  Shen Tang: "...the state capital?"

   Isn’t the state capital of Sibao County...

   Xiaocheng!

  Shen Tang almost jumped up on the spot.

  Qi Shan and Chu Yao stretched out their hands, pressed her left and right shoulders respectively, and signaled her to be calm: "Don't worry, go and find out first..."

  Chu Yao glanced at the new customers outside the restaurant, got up and tidied up his sleeves, and went up to ask the male owner of the family: "Sir, please stop, did you run a private school in Xiaocheng?"

  The male host looked at Chu Yao warily.

  This person looks young, tall and tall, dressed like an old scholar in his forties or fifties, and has a long face, which makes people think of the words "dead" and "old-fashioned".

  He seems to have a habit of looking at people with white eyes, and he is not friendly to Chu Yao's approaching behavior, but when he glanced at the Wenxin monogram on the latter's waist from the corner of his eyes, his expression immediately changed 180 degrees.

"Who are you?"

   "It really is sir. Sir, I don't remember about it. There is a junior in the family who has been enlightened in Mr. private school for two years. He went back to pick up the child and met him from afar."

  Chu Yao opened his mouth and came, half truth and half false.

  He did meet the hostess a few times, but it was the first time that he didn't bother to talk to the handyman in the back kitchen of the Huanchang Building.

  The host's expression softened a bit.

"I see."

  Chu Yao's tone was natural: "Mr. Yao Guan is in a hurry, and he is still bringing his wife and children with him, but he wants to go on a long trip to visit relatives?"

  The male host sighed: "It's not a trip to visit relatives, but to move."

  Chu Yao pretended to be surprised: "Moving? This... Mr. Mr.'s private school and those students... also have some operations in the next few years. If Mr. has difficulties, Yao may be able to help."

  The host was very moved after hearing this.

   Wishing to immediately introduce Chu Yao as a lifelong confidant, his eyes sparkled slightly: "The private school has been closed, and all the students have dispersed."

  Although Chu Yao was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the information behind the male host’s answer—

   Is Xiaocheng so dangerous?

   You must know that there are few private schools in Xiaocheng, and the quality of teaching is even less. The male master's private school is one of them.

  So many people are willing to send their children there. Even if this person likes to make things difficult for others—students from a good family background who accept less Shuxiu, he will teach more;

  This means that he does not have the competitive pressure of survival in this place of Xiaocheng, and he lives a more decent and nourishing life than most people.

   Hehe, after getting a new manicure and getting used to the mechanical keyboard, I found that my nails can really grow longer.
