Chapter 58 There is a river outside the city

Shortly after Li Mengzhou and Ye Sangyu left, Yuan Gui, who had wrapped himself tightly, checked out and left without holding an umbrella, and was soaked in the rain.

The proprietress looked at his back and muttered to herself: "This person is so strange, I always feel something is wrong."

But she didn't have time to care about Yuan Gui's affairs. She just needed to bring the money and some necessities. Anyway, everything in this inn had been sold.

Just when the waiter was carrying his luggage and following the boss's wife to leave the inn, an uninvited guest came in the alley.

It was a man in blue robe led by an old man in gray robe and a group of strong men in the world.

The boss lady didn't think much about it, but just said casually: "The inn has been given up. I don't know if it will become a warehouse or something else. If you want to stay in a hotel, please go somewhere else."

The man in the blue robe didn't live in a hotel either. Although he was a little surprised, he still greeted the boss's wife politely and asked: "We are not staying in a hotel, we just want to ask the boss's wife for someone."

The boss's wife is very smart. The first thing she thought of was not Li Mengzhou and Ye Sangyu, but the strange resident who had just left.

It was also because the man in the blue robe said he wanted to inquire about someone. Since he was a person, of course, it was even more impossible for him to be Li Mengzhou and Ye Sangyu.

In a hurry to rush, the boss's wife pointed casually, and was exactly where Yuan Gui left, and said, "I have just left for a while. If you want to chase me, it should be too late."

The man in the blue robe was a little surprised. He hadn't said he wanted to ask who he wanted to ask, but thinking that his sister might be in danger, he didn't think about it for a moment, so he immediately thanked him and chased him out.

The dozen martial artists in the martial arts world were naturally followed closely. Only Mr. Wu said to the boss lady helplessly: "What we are going to inquire about is a girl about sixteen years old, who is very delicate and beautiful. It is said that she is also following a boy. I wonder if she lives in the boss lady's shop. Where are you now?"

The boss's wife was stunned for a moment, because that Yuan Gui had nothing to do with her, and she was too lazy to meddle in other people's business, but it was Ye Sangyu, so she immediately alerted the boss's wife.

Even if the boss's wife may have been living in the world, she must be less experienced than Mr. Wu in terms of experience. Although she didn't speak, the boss's wife's instantaneous expression was still seen by Mr. Wu.

He looked thoughtful and continued, "Please let the boss tell me."

The boss's wife reacted and looked very dull and said, "There are indeed two people living in the store, but they left a few days ago. Now I really can't remember where they went. After all, our store has a good business, so how can we remember all the people who stay in the store, let alone pay attention to the whereabouts of customers."

Mr. Wu smiled but said nothing. He did not continue to ask the boss lady, but just thanked him and chased the man in the blue robe and others.

Seeing that someone had walked away, the proprietress silently wiped the sweat from her forehead, her face looking a little ugly.

The waiter said in a daze: "Boss, the two of them left only at the age of You, why did you say they left a few days ago?"

The boss lady glared at him and said, "What are you talking about? That girl is so cute. I am very happy. This group of people has unknown origins. It is obvious that the visitors are not good, so how can they tell them the truth? It's too long to have many dreams, so leave quickly."

The waiter was puzzled and could only follow the boss's wife's steps. He had already purchased a carriage and parked it outside the alley.

The boss's wife was in the carriage, and cold sweat seemed to be still hanging on her face. She thought about Mr. Wu and murmured to herself: "That old man is not a simple person. She felt like she was seen through in an instant. The cold sweat was soaked in her clothes. I don't know if she could deceive him. If she let him react and find me trouble, she would be dead. I hope that the girl and the boy are lucky and not caught up with them."

Thinking of this, she lifted the curtain, patted the waiter on the shoulder, and said, "Go away quickly, the sooner you leave the city, the better."

......

There is a river outside Ninglu City, and this river has a very resounding name, Tianhe.

The name comes from the geographical location of the river, which spreads tens of thousands of miles, as if it reaches the sky.

This is the largest and longest river in Jiangguo.

Ninglu City is just right next to this river.

No one knows where the end of this river is. There are rumors that the end of the river is the gathering place for people outside the mountain, where the most terrifying group of people in the world live.

There are fish in Tianhe, with a wide variety of species. Any strange fish can be seen in Tianhe. Therefore, when the city near Tianhe can use Tianhe to make a wealthy family. The fish in Tianhe can be sold at a high price in the fish market. Of course, this is for cities far away from Tianhe.

Anyone who is nearby can catch fish as long as he is willing to spend time, so the local fish market will naturally not be able to raise the price.

Because the autumn rain has not completely stopped, there are not many people in the dam near Tianhe River, and the turbulent sound of the river will make it look a little deserted here.

Ye Sangyu sat on the horse, holding an oil-paper umbrella, Li Mengzhou held the reins in front and also held an umbrella. They temporarily rested in the woods near Tianhe.

Originally, he thought the rain was about to stop, but Li Mengzhou was about to hurry on his way, but he didn't expect that in half a day, the rain became heavier again.

Fortunately, the rain is not so heavy that it cannot be rushed, but the ground under your feet is muddy, so it will naturally be a little troublesome if you walk.

Ye Sangyu didn't mind riding with Li Mengzhou, but Li Mengzhou felt it was not suitable, because they did ride a horse before, and there would inevitably be touches during the bumps, so Li Mengzhou was a little scared.

Because the people of Ninglu City need to fish and sell in Tianhe, there are many wooden houses built here so that the two of them will not get wet in the rain.

Ye Sangyu got off the horse and walked into the wooden house. The installation inside was very simple and there was nothing except a fishy smell.

Li Mengzhou tied the horse in front of the wooden house, tied the rope to the wooden stake next to it, thinking whether he would go to the edge of Tianhe to catch a fish to eat.

The quiet forest is in addition to the sound of wind blowing leaves and raindrops falling, it also gives a feeling of ethereality in the world.

Standing in front of the wooden house, Li Mengzhou glanced casually. An oil-paper umbrella was slowly coming. There was someone under the umbrella, and the soles of her feet were muddy. The oil-paper umbrella did not completely cover the man, but for some reason, there was no trace of wetness in the clothes exposed outside.

The oil-paper umbrella under the autumn rain seemed to float in the misty field of vision without any sound.

The person under the umbrella was as thin as firewood. It was vaguely visible to a man with muddy feet but not too much mud. It was definitely not something that ordinary people could do.
