Chapter 57 Looking at the direction of the capital

He looked at the deep alley outside the inn, and there were no pedestrians, only the crackling and crisp sound of raindrops falling on the ground. The raindrops on the eaves instantly gathered into a thin stream, flowing down the corners of the eaves, hanging out silver-bright water lines. Within the sight, they felt extremely wonderful.

Li Mengzhou did not go to see the boss’s wife, but said directly: "Why did the boss’s wife open an inn here?"

The proprietress still looked up at the drizzle outside the inn, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Maybe there is no way to go and I don't know anything. Opening an inn is simple. As long as there is a place and food, just check the cash for the rest."

Li Mengzhou leaned out his hand, and the raindrops fell on his fingertips and did not slide down immediately. Seeing a drop of water appearing quietly on his fingertips, he asked, "Why are there nowhere to go?"

The boss lady smiled and said, "Why should I tell you? You care why I open an inn."

Li Mengzhou felt a little regretful and slowly spoke: "I am homeless, but I have somewhere to go. Everyone should have the goal they want to achieve. No matter whether that goal can be achieved or not, it will always be stored in their hearts.

Some people work hard to achieve it, while others choose another path, and then recall the goal I once wanted to achieve in the middle of the night. After all, I don’t want to leave regrets. It’s not my dream, but the goal I want to achieve.

Although sometimes I feel that it is unnecessary, because I have to go through a lot of hardships and there will be many moments of wanting to give up at the same time, but at this time, if I choose to give up, what is everything I have suffered before?

Such a life is too failure. Even if I don’t hit the wall, I won’t look back. I will break through the wall and go to the capital to kill someone who cannot be killed.”

The boss's wife looked at Li Mengzhou in a daze, with the colors in her eyes a little complicated.

Li Mengzhou said to himself, as if he was looking for someone to express his thoughts: "The people in the capital are very powerful, but they are not the strongest among my goals, because that person is impossible to be killed in the capital, but the people who cannot be killed in the whole world are the strongest.

I was not capable enough, so I couldn’t kill the strongest person directly, so the capital became my first goal, and setting foot on the capital was the only place that could make me stronger.”

The boss lady said quietly: "Why do you want to tell me this?"

Li Mengzhou said: "There is no reason, I just want to say it."

Although he seemed to have said a lot, it was actually the same as not saying it. Apart from the capital, he did not speak clearly about someone, and no one could guess.

And the so-called people who cannot be killed cannot represent a certain person in this world, and even the world of practitioners.

The boss looked at the direction of the capital. Although he couldn't see it at all, it seemed that the figure of the capital had appeared in her eyes, and she also saw the people inside. She said, "If you want to go to the capital, can I ask you something?"

Li Mengzhou seemed a little surprised, and he said, "I may not be able to complete the work you ask me, because after I arrive in the capital, I may die soon."

The boss lady said, "It's nothing. This is easy to complete. You can do it before you die."

Li Mengzhou hesitated for a moment and said, "What are the benefits of me?"

The boss's wife gently stroked her tall chest and smiled and said, "You have spent all your money in the inn. Even if you leave now, I will not refund you. But if you want to go to the capital, I can lend you some travel expenses. No, maybe it's a reward. You just need to go to the capital and help me send me a letter to someone. It's very simple."

Li Mengzhou nodded and said, "It is indeed not difficult to just send a letter, but you are sure that you won't cause me any trouble, right?"

The boss lady glanced at him and said, "You dare to say that you want to kill someone in the capital who cannot be killed. What are you afraid of if you have a small trouble?"

Li Mengzhou smiled bitterly and said, "You can't say that. How can you believe what I said is true, instead of bragging?"

The boss lady smiled and said, "I don't care whether it is true or not. And I just have any trouble sending a letter. The person who receives the letter is not bullied by anyone in the capital. Maybe you can use this to get along with the relationship and protect you for a while."

Li Mengzhou said with a little interest: "Then I do want to be respectful, but I don't know how many taels of silver you want to give me?"

......

Li Mengzhou returned to the east wing on the second floor with a dark face. Ye Sangyu lay in the quilt and poked her head out and said, "What's wrong with you? Did you lose money?"

After silently looking at Ye Sangyu, Li Mengzhou said angrily: "Where can I have money to lose?"

Ye Sangyu stuck out her tongue.

Li Mengzhou sat at the table and took a sip of tea. He thought that the boss's wife asked her to do her business, but she was still so stingy. She originally wanted to extort her a few hundred taels of silver, but she didn't expect that she would be sold to a price of only ten taels.

He could not accept the request directly, but he was not willing to think about the person who could protect himself for a while as the boss said. Although the boss's words were not trustworthy, if it was true, it would be a good thing.

Ten taels of silver are already a lot, and as long as Ye Sangyu is controlled and not spending money indiscriminately, it is enough to go to the capital.

Thinking of this, Li Mengzhou was not angry. After all, he was just sending a letter. It was a good thing that was like a pie falling from the sky.

"Let's leave when the rain stops."

"You have earned money?"

Ye Sangyu looked at Li Mengzhou in surprise.

Li Mengzhou nodded and said, "That's right, ten taels should be enough."

He didn't tell Ye Sangyu in detail, and he felt that there was no need.

The autumn rain was so scared that it didn't last long. It stopped around the evening and took Ye Sangyu to say goodbye to the boss's wife.

The boss's wife looked very reluctant and took Ye Sangyu's little hand and touched her.

Li Mengzhou suddenly woke up to the boss's bad intentions.

He forced Ye Sangyu to leave with an umbrella and soon disappeared into the alley.

The proprietress stood at the entrance of the inn for a long time and said to the waiter behind her, "Cleaning up, let's leave too."

The waiter was a little surprised and said, "Where are we going? Where are we still there?"

The boss's wife said calmly: "I had already given up the inn a few days ago and got a lot of money. If you don't want to follow me, you can leave by yourself or stay here."

The waiter still couldn't figure it out and said, "Where is the boss's wife going?"

The boss’s wife thought for a while and said, “Go to a peaceful place and live a peaceful life.”
