- Now there is a monster in the county town, which is specifically targeting babies. Shopkeeper He is of course afraid that the monster will come here.
"I see, the world today has only been peaceful for two years. There are wars and monsters, and people's livelihood is difficult."
Lu Li sighed after hearing what Shopkeeper He said.
"Who says it's not? But what can ordinary people like us do? I hope those recruited immortal masters can successfully get rid of the monster. If it doesn't help, we have to drive it away. No, it's better to get rid of it."
Shopkeeper He thought of driving the monster away from the county, so he came here out of nowhere, and he immediately retorted.
"It will be exactly as the shopkeeper wishes."
Lu Li couldn't help but laugh when he saw the nervous look of the shopkeeper in front of him, then turned around and walked out the door.
He is not a comforter.
In fact, I am preparing to gather the talisman seeds. I probably won¡¯t be able to stay here at the dock for long.
Before leaving, Lu Li didn't mind going to the county town to get rid of the baby-crying demon that was causing trouble, and he could also collect some energy by the way.
But these are all alternatives. Whether or not you should do it depends on the situation.
After walking on the street for a while, he came to the teahouse.
"Mr. Lu."
The teahouse owner saw Lu Li coming and quickly said hello.
He and Song Haiqing played chess before, and the wonderful chess game is still talked about in the teahouse.
Here, Lu Li is considered a celebrity, not too big or too small.
"Um."
Lu Li nodded and looked around the building. Compared to the past, the teahouse is much less popular now. There are only about eight or nine people drinking tea in the building.
?Looking at their worried faces and sighs, I guess they have not been living a good life these days.
The singing girl didn¡¯t come today either.
This is normal. There is no business, so it is impossible for the teahouse owner to post a book and invite people to sing.
"Is Mr. Song here today?"
Lu Li turned to look at the shopkeeper next to him and asked.
"Nope."
The shopkeeper sighed: "These days, the business in the building is very bleak. During the days when Mr. Song didn't come, Mr. Song came once. After asking, I learned that Mr. Song didn't come, and he never came again. "
"That's it."
Lu Li nodded. Although he was a little disappointed, he didn't care too much.
¡°Give me a pot of green tea and some pastries.¡±
"okay."
The shopkeeper responded happily.
Lu Li is actually considered his big customer.
Every time I come here, I order good tea, and the pastries are also good. One order from him is worth dozens of orders.
Today I finally made some progress.
Tea and cakes were served soon. Lu Li was sipping tea and eating cakes while listening to the people around him talking about the hardships of life.
It is also clearer about the situation in Liangzhou during this period.
Now King Liang has sent 50,000 troops to the south to aid King Dai.
The first 30,000 troops have already set off, and the remaining 20,000 will be personally led by Liang Wang Bai Yi'an, the military god, and will move south along the Baishui River in a few days.
In order to maintain the transportation of grain and grass for the army, Cangsong County recruited thousands of civilians specifically to transport grain and grass.
"No wonder there aren't many people on the streets. It turns out they've all been drafted."
Lu Li looked at the deserted teahouse and felt that the idle people who used to chat here must have been recruited by the Yamen.
However, with so many people being recruited, the dock has lost a lot of fun and has become uninteresting.
Finished with refreshments.
He got up and returned to the restaurant. When he reached the street, he met a group of soldiers patrolling over.
Lu Li took a look and saw that these soldiers were wearing fish scale armor. The man in front of him had a long sword on his waist. There were nine people following him, all holding spears. At this time, the spearheads were all raised up to the sky, shining in the sun. Cold light.
Seemingly sensing his gaze, the man in front of him turned his head and looked at each other. Lu Li smiled at him and nodded.
The leading soldier did not respond, but after seeing Lu Li's attire and demeanor, he looked away again.
After passing the pair of patrolling soldiers, Lu Li returned to the restaurant and found Shopkeeper He. After having lunch today, he submitted his resignation.
"Sir, do you want to leave?" Shopkeeper He was a little surprised, and even more reluctant to leave.
""Ah. "
Lu Li nodded and said with concern: "Now that there are more and more soldiers here, it's a bit too chaotic. I'm going to go look elsewhere and find a safe place to live."
Shopkeeper He sighed: "That's true. Mr. Na will cherish it all the way."
"The same goes for Shopkeeper He. Business is booming and everything is safe."
Lu Li bowed his hands to Shopkeeper He, then turned and left.
There is a carriage and horse racing station here at the pier.
This time he wanted to go to the county town. Lu Li didn't want to walk, so he went there to ask, only to find that a large number of cattle and horses here had been requisitioned.
He was disappointed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only walk on his own feet.
Fortunately, the county seat is only more than ten miles away from here, so it¡¯s not too far.
He encountered many villages on the road. Lu Li took a look and found that most of them were women, children, old and young, and few adult men were seen.
It was approaching sunset when we finally arrived at Cangsong County.
Compared to the pier, the city is much more popular.
Lu Li found an inn and entered it, only to find that the place was almost full.
"Isn't this why the county magistrate recruits capable people and strangers these days?"
Facing Lu Li's confusion, the innkeeper explained: "These days, a large number of immortals and wizards have heard about the festival. In addition, the county government has reserved some wing rooms and courtyards for accommodation, and they also rented some by themselves. Nowadays, there are many inns and restaurants in the city. It¡¯s basically almost full.¡±
"I see."
Lu Li nodded, and then scanned around the hall. There were all kinds of people wearing Taoist robes, monk robes, tattered clothes, or simply wearing strange clothes.
Under the eyes of the law.
They are just ordinary people with no spirituality. They want to get rid of demons, just by delivering food.
"But maybe they just want to get some food and drinks, and now they just eat and have sex in this inn for free. Anyway, all the expenses are paid by the county government."
Ignoring the braggadocio of these witches and wizards, Lu Li looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "Do you still have a house here? Do you have a better one?"
The shopkeeper replied: "I do have a house, and there are two upper rooms left. Do guests want them?"
"Come to a room for me and prepare some food. Don't worry about money."
Lu Li took out a piece of silver, about ten taels, from his pocket and put it on the shopkeeper's desk.
The bright white silver is reflected in the light, and the silver light immediately attracts the eyes of many people.
Many witches and wizards looked over.
Seeing the silver and what Lu Li was wearing, many people's eyes flashed with strange light.
"Don't worry, guest, delicious food and drinks will be served later. I'll lead you to your room first."
The shopkeeper immediately collected the money, put it into his arms, and enthusiastically led Lu Li to the backyard.
