Chapter 399: Mushrooms should be eaten while they are still hot

Lu Zheng blinked and rubbed his chin, "Is this done?"

Liu Qingyan felt it carefully, nodded and said, "There are only these four, there are no other ghosts in the inn."

"It feels a little unreal to win so easily." Lu Zheng complained.

Liu Qingyan couldn't help but chuckle, "It's not good to win easily, you still want to meet a Specter, and then fight for 300 rounds?"

"Hey, I'm just talking."

The inn was right by the road, and it was not built where the yin qi converged, so as soon as the four ghosts died, the yin qi that permeated the inn began to slowly dissipate.

After a few more days in the sun, it is estimated that it will turn into an ordinary inn.

The only thing that surprised Lu Zheng was that the inn was not blessed with ghost magic, and the various charges in the room were all real.

"Rare! Professional!" Lu Zheng commented with admiration, "If you meet a foreigner from the upstream side, I can't say that you will be fooled by them."

Liu Qingyan's eyes flickered, and she said softly, "I remember shopkeeper Luo also said that this inn was opened by people from a village not far away. So, will there be problems in that village?"

"Um?"

Lu Zheng thought for a while, then nodded, "Let's find out tomorrow morning."

Just now these four ghosts also contributed some light of luck, so Lu Zheng also thought about more light of luck.

Just looking at the strength of these four little ghosts, it is estimated that there are no powerful ghosts in that village... right?

Liu Qingyan asked, "Do you want to tell them the truth?"

Lu Zheng shook his head, "Of course not, everyone has been down this road for two years, so don't think we are strong men who kill people and steal money."

...

Early the next morning.

Luo Jin and his party got up one after another, got dressed and came to the living room, only to see that Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan had arrived.

The shopkeeper was making calculations behind the counter, and there was the sound of cooking fire from the back kitchen. One of the two shop assistants was sweeping at the door, and the other was serving breakfast to everyone.

The atmosphere is harmonious and warm.

"A few guest officers are awake? Today's breakfast is steamed buns, pickles, and millet lake lake." The second shopkeeper who served breakfast said, "Please sit down, there are big meat buns in the back."

"Good good!"

"I slept and I was just hungry!"

...

After breakfast, we said goodbye and left.

The shopkeeper also personally sent everyone to the door, beckoned for a long time, and then turned back to the inn.

"Lao Luo, I've been on this road for two years, and this is the first time I've encountered such enthusiasm from the shopkeeper. It seems that there are not many customers and they are not very busy." Luo Jin sighed.

And when everyone had walked for a while and turned around a corner of the mountain, at the inn that they could no longer see, the four people in the inn just disappeared like a dream bubble.

...

"By the way, Manager Luo, how many people in this inn are you from a village not far away?"

Lu Zheng joined hands with Liu Qingyan, and came to Luo Jin's side in two steps, asking questions.

"Yes!" Luo Jin nodded.

"How did you know?"

"What they said!" Luo Jin said naturally.

Lu Zheng, "..."

Liu Qingyan asked softly, "So, you haven't been to that village yet?"

"No." Luo Jin shook his head, "Most of the women and children in the stockade worked at the post station near the official road. The shopkeeper said that they were strong, so they passed a few hills and opened an inn here to make more money. "

Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan looked at each other.

If most of the people in the village were looking for jobs on official roads, then of course it couldn't be a ghost village. In that case, the shopkeeper found a background at will, and the purpose was to dispel the vigilance of the past merchants.

Lu Zheng and the two did not ask any further.

People who are accustomed to walking this mountain road, of course, will not take the official road, and then go to verify the real information of this inn.

Of course, it is impossible for the official to control the thousands of paths in the depths of Lingshan.

And this ghost inn is also cautious, only attacking the single caravan, and the number of times is not frequent, even if someone heard of it, they just thought it was bad luck, and was swallowed by the wild beasts and even the spirits in the mountains.

After all, most people are fine, right?

Therefore, I don't know how long this ghost inn has been open, how many lives have been killed, and it has not been discovered.

It was also bad luck, and it happened to bump into Lu Zheng's hands.

...

On the next journey, there are no accidents. After all, it is a small road. Merchants who travel from north to south pass by every day, and most of the roads have also been widened a lot.

The real difficulty is such as the one-foot narrow road next to the cliff, such as climbing over the uneven peaks and rocks, such as several rope bridges erected on both sides of the cliff.

As for the mountain bug, the bear blind, and the mountain spirit tree monster, etc., they have not encountered it.

...

At noon on the fifth day, everyone came out of the mountain and arrived at the nearest stockade just in time.

"I'll just say that this journey is close, fast and safe." Luo Jin smiled and said to Lu Zheng, "I've been gone for two years, and nothing has ever happened."

"Ah yes yes yes!" Lu Zheng nodded, but he couldn't help but persuade him, "But I heard that every year many people go missing on the small road, if there is no urgent need, try not to take the small road, even if you take the small road, It's better to gather more people."

Luo Jin nodded again and again and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, I can save it."

Knowing that Luo Jin didn't listen, Lu Zheng would not persuade him any more.

"Where are you planning to go, son, can you still travel for the rest of the journey?" Luo Jin asked.

"No need, it's already out of Lingshan, we can go all the way to play in the mountains and water, so we won't delay your journey." Lu Zheng refused.

"Okay, okay." Luo Jin agreed with a smile, and then he and the team replenished some dry food in the village and left immediately.

Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan followed the woods beside the official road all the way south.

...

Leaving Lingshan, it is the boundary of Lingnan Road.

Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan did not deliberately avoid crowds except for not following the official road. Every time they went to a county or prefecture, they would go in for a stroll, eat local specialties from Lingnan Road, and stay at an inn in the city at night. Stay one night.

However, within a few days, they arrived at the state capital of Lingnan Road, which is close to the southern XinjiangYongzhou.

...

Yongzhou, Wangshan County, Dinghai Building.

Sitting in the elegant seat on the third floor, watching the people from the southern border crossing the street, wearing white clothes, wearing various decorations, and speaking Dajing Mandarin with an accent, whether it is life or business, they are very familiar.

Liu Qingyan looked curious, "I didn't expect Yongzhou to be such a scene."

"After all, the southern border is chaotic, and the people still yearn for a peaceful life." Lu Zheng said, "I just don't know what the situation is in the northern region."

As soon as he said a few words, the shop clerk brought a variety of mountain and game specialties from southern Xinjiang, a combination of meat and vegetables, and a pot of mushroom soup that looked gorgeous, steaming hot.

"This fungus..." Lu Zheng looked at the red, yellow, blue, and green all kinds of fungus in the pot and couldn't help swallowing.

"This fungus, eat it while it's hot!" The shop clerk greeted the two of them, and enthusiastically served a bowl to each of them.

Lu Zheng: ('°Δ°`)

Liu Qingyan: (°ー°〃)
