Chapter 19 The Coffin

A few people led the horse to the backyard and told the boy who was feeding the horse to feed the horse well. Then they entered the Inn and found a place in the lobby. sit down.

Zhu Qi and the others wear a clawless dragon suit, black armor, and standard weapons.

The lively Inn instantly quieted down after several people entered the door.

“Everyone, please come inside!” The little servant came over and said cautiously.

Long Yuxing didn’t speak, his eyes looked all around calmly, taking everyone’s expressions into his eyes.

“Find two tables, order good wine and good food!” Zhao Mao is more suitable to handle this situation.

“Yes, my lords, sit here!”

There are two Eight Immortals tables next to each other in the corner. Zhu Qi, Long Yuxing, and Zhao Mao are sitting together, and the six are only Martial Old Fox of Arts Ninth Realm sits at a table.

When I chatted with Old Sun, Old Sun said that there are four kinds of people in Qimen.

First, like Zhu Qi, he is talented and young, but he doesn’t have a teacher, he is unwilling to be ordinary, and he doesn’t want to join a certain Sect and tie his head to his belt for someone else’s family business, so Decided to enter Qimen to seek the promotion of Martial Arts.

Second, this is the Disciple in the Sect. If he wants to pursue a career, the 1,000-Man Commander of Jianmu Mansion is such a person.

The third type, there are people above, but for some reason had to enter Qimen to seek a half-official position, such as 100-Man Commander Du Zhou.

The fourth person, with limited talent and no motivation, just wanted to hang around after joining Qimen, just like the six people at the other table.

people who walk different paths cannot make plans together, those six people just want to complete their assigned tasks, they are very slick, and they don’t want to come to support Long Yuxing’s stinky feet.

Long Yuxing is young, and promotion to the general flag is a sure thing. When the time comes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Now the relationship, incense and love, when the time comes will not play a big role.

As Chen Rong said, outsiders call Qimen Armored Soldier an Imperial Court eagle dog with black skin, but when Zhu Qi and the others are unceremoniously sitting in the Inn, this group of Jianghu people are very honest , even if you really want to chat, you only dare to whisper.

The dishes will be on the table soon.

However, it was different from the TV series that Zhu Qi senior watched. The meat served was chicken, but the wine was piping hot.

The main function of cattle is farming, and no one dares to kill cattle.

In the Great Yan Law, killing a cow is also punishable. Only in some specific circumstances, such as the death of an old cow, death of illness, etc., can you eat beef, but you can’t write beef into the recipe.

Although this world has ghosts, demons, Martial Artists, and cultivators, the development of ordinary society is still in the era of farming, and there are frequent wars everywhere. Death is the norm, and food is still a big problem.

Everyone has a True Qi in their body, and they don’t have to worry about poison in their meals.

Long Yuxing is also a person who doesn’t like to make wine table courtesies. He eats with chopsticks. Instead, Zhu Qi feels very comfortable. Wine table culture, please invite me again, your wine glass is higher than mine. Low wait, pay attention to those things, and put on a bureaucratic style, which will really make the people in the Inn ridicule.

After eating, everyone entered the backyard to rest.

They live in a big shop, not because they can’t afford a single room, but when they go out, their priority is safety.

This place is adjacent to the wilderness, and the Inn has been open for many years, but after all, it is not reassuring.

It may be more enjoyable if you change to other small flags to lead the team, but Long Yuxing is completely different, and everything is cautious.

Zhu Qi noticed the six Old Fox with reluctance on his face.

As inhumane like Long Yuxing, if he has him as a subordinate, he can rest assured to let him do things, but as his subordinate, he will suffer a lot of crimes, especially for those who like to steal. For those who are cheating and tricky, following a boss who always pursues a clean and meticulous boss is suffering.

The annual salary of Qimen Armored Soldier is not much, but it can’t bear the good treatment.

It is the so-called rich fight while the poor write.

Every month, Imperial Court will distribute some pill herbs needed to boil the body, and there are often subsidies such as meat and food. In addition to good welfare, Qimen’s Armored Soldier status is not good in terms of power and status. unusual.

Qimen is a department set up by Great Yan specifically to deal with ghosts, and to try some cases beyond worldly cognition.

An Armored Soldier with no rank, can even command a County Magistrate. If there is an emergency, it is not impossible to kill first and then play it, but I am afraid that the follow-up will be punished more than reward, but that’s why , local officials fear Qimen Armored Soldier like a tiger, and often automatically send various benefits.

So Qimen Armored Soldier has become an existence that people respect and officials fear and dare not provoke.

Zhu Qi put down his luggage and walked out of the room with his sword in his arms. He saw an old man driving a donkey cart to the backyard, followed by an expressionless teenager.

A donkey cart is pulling a coffin.

Many people are unlucky and don’t want to sleep with the coffin.

The servant in the Inn rushed over to negotiate with the old man.

“Old man, it’s really not good, we are Inn, not Yi Village, how can we park the coffin?”

The old man begged: “It’s freezing outside, so you can leave the store. Have pity on both grandfather and grandson, there is no store in front of the village or in the back, we stay outside for one night, I guess this little life can’t be saved.”

It’s not that people will freeze to death in late autumn, but The old man is skinny, and the young man has yellow face and thin skin. Even if he sleeps outside overnight, he will not die, but he will also catch typhoid and catch a cold. If he is seriously ill, it is estimated that he will lose half his life.

“This…” The little servant was embarrassed.

“We pay as you go! Give more money!” The old man took out a small piece of silver and handed it to the servant.

The little servant shook his head and did not dare to accept it.

“You little servant, what’s the matter!” Chen Rong had been on the sidelines for a while. Seeing that the little servant had been slow to let people in, he walked over and said, “It’s not that they don’t give you money. , and don’t let you suffer! At worst, let both grandfather and grandson live in a firewood house, it’s better than the two of them freezing outside!” The leopard’s eyes widened, and the thunderous voice opened, which scared the little servant so much that his calf was spinning.

“I’m going to ask the shopkeeper!” The boy ran away.

After a while, the boy came back and sent the old man, the donkey cart, and the coffin into the woodshed.

“That’s right!” Chen Rong nodded, very satisfied.

“Old man, I’m here to help you!” Chen Rong said to the past.

“Many thanks, sir, but don’t bother you, there is mud under the coffin, so as not to get your hands dirty.” The old man waved his hands again and again.

Chen Rong shook his head: “I just can’t stand them bullying the common people. Your legs and feet are inconvenient… Hey, boy, come and help!”

He rushed to the expressionless boy beside him shouted.

The young man was stunned for a moment and glanced at the old man before walking to the coffin. The two of them took the coffin out of the donkey cart.

However, Chen Rong didn’t catch it for a while, and the lid of the coffin was lifted.

“Oh, I can’t see the light!” The old man hurried over and closed the coffin again, looking towards Chen Rongshi as if he was going to be angry.

“I’m sorry, I’ve gained a lot of strength by practicing swordsmanship.” Chen Rong patted the broad sword on his waist and said, “I didn’t catch it just now.”

Old man Glancing at the big sword on Chen Rong’s waist, his anger disappeared instantly, and he said humbly, “I won’t bother the adults from now on.”

Chen Rong didn’t force it any more, nodded, watching the youth and the old man struggling carried the coffin to the woodshed.
