Because of what had happened this morning, Lin Mengya and Baishao decided to have their meals in their room.
The horse carriages stopped at the entrance of the inn, and a quick-witted waiter came forward to welcome them.
When Lin Mengya and Baishao got out of the carriage, they found that the inn was already full of people.
However, this small town was full of businessmen. On this point, there was nothing strange about it.
Lin Mengya nodded slightly. Perhaps she was too sensitive.
"Please come in, sir."
The waiter, who was dressed in coarse gray clothes, was already leading the way.
The inn was very simple. There were a few rows of tables in the hall, and all of them were occupied.
The aroma of all kinds of dishes filled the entire hall.
Lin Mengya and Baishao had enjoyed the steamed buns and pickled vegetables for lunch, which made them feel the beauty of good food.
They whispered to each other and discussed what to eat later.
In the eyes of others, they looked like a loving couple.
"My room is next door. Just call me if you need anything."
There were guest rooms on the second floor, and Lin Mengya and Qiu Yu each took a room.
This time, Qiu Yu was not shameless enough to squeeze into the same room as her.
Watching Qiu Yu enter the room and close the door, Lin Mengya felt a little puzzled.
Since leaving the post station in the morning, Qiu Yu had been in a bad mood. He did not speak much the whole day.
Could it be that he was angry? But Qiu Yu did not look like a petty person.
Lin Mengya could only shake her head in the end. Then, she followed the waiter back to her room.
Master Guo had long prepared for this, and he must have wanted to make up for it. He gave the best room to Lin Mengya.
The room was very elegant and quiet, and it was a suite. The window was facing the street, and she could see the whole town when she looked down.
There were wooden tables and benches, and a few vases were placed in the room.
Although it was not as exquisite as Restaurant Ruyi, it was very clean and comfortable.
After ordering the dishes, Lin Mengya closed the door. Baishao and Lin Mengya looked around carefully.
Fortunately, they did not find anything unusual. They had to be careful when they were out.
"Master, do you think Lord Qiu is angry with me?"
Baishao asked cautiously as she poured a cup of tea for Lin Mengya.
It was enough to blame her for being too talkative, but Official Qiu's temper was a little too small. It was just a complaint. Was there a need to be angry for an entire day?
Lin Mengya smiled and shook her head. She lowered her voice and said,
"He's not angry at you. I think he's just putting on an act for others to see."
Along the way, Qiu Yu and Lin Mengya acted as if they had just quarreled.
Along the way, Lin Mengya had sensed that there were several people tailing behind the caravan.
Although she didn't know if it was for her. But at noon, when they were resting by the roadside, Qiu Yu disappeared for a while.
Lin Mengya had a very sensitive sense of smell. Since Qiu Yu came back, there had been a faint smell of blood lingering in the air.
She guessed that Qiu Yu must have gone to deal with those who followed him.
Based on Qiu Yu's character, he definitely didn't kill them. Instead, he managed to obtain a lot of useful information from the other party.
It was just that it was not the time to make it clear to her.
Baishao was very quick-witted and immediately understood what Lin Mengya was implying.
However, in the past six months, she had followed her master through many dangers. Naturally, she calmed down a lot.
She nodded and didn't continue to ask.
"Sir, your food is here. Is it convenient for me to send it to you now?"
Outside the door, the waiter gently knocked on the door, then raised his voice and said.
Lin Mengya tidied up her clothes and made sure that there was nothing wrong with her before she agreed.
A few appetizing dishes were placed on the table. Naturally, there were no fresh vegetables in such a place.
Fortunately, the chef's exquisite skills made the simple Chinese cabbage and tofu taste more delicious.
Coupled with the steaming hot rice, it was also very appetizing.
Lin Mengya and Baishao seized the time to eat. There were people passing by the door.
Judging from the liveliness outside, there were probably several caravans staying in this inn at the same time.
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. The more people there were, the more chaotic it would be. She was sure that those who were tailing her would not let this matter rest.
It seemed that she had to put aside her plan to go out at night.
After dinner, Master Guo sent someone to invite her to have a seat downstairs.
Lin Mengya reminded Baishao to lock the door properly and not to open the door without her calling.
Lin Mengya changed her clothes and walked down the stairs gracefully from the second floor.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, Lin Mengya washed her face and hands in the clean basin in the room.
Compared with those people who made a living on the business road all year round, Master Yuan was like a different kind. Master Yuan, with his jade-like face and exquisite facial features, was like a different kind of person.
In the hall, Master Guo's caravan was not the only one sitting.
Lin Mengya saw that there were even caravans dressed in clothes of foreign tribes.
However, regardless of whether they were men or women, they all hid their faces behind a veil. Only pairs of deep eyes were revealed. At this moment, they were all focused on Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya smiled calmly. Of course, she knew that her appearance was different from the others.
However, she didn't intend to hide in the room like a tortoise.
Lin Mengya walked down the stairs with a bamboo folding fan in her hand. There were all kinds of men around her, and they were all the best of the best.
Unrestrained and unrestrained? It was very simple.
"Master Guo, brothers."
Lin Mengya ignored all the scrutinizing eyes and stood at Master Guo's table. Then, she cupped her hands and bowed slightly, speaking slowly and in a low voice.
Immediately, a few slightly shy but quietly burning gazes focused on her body.
Lin Mengya couldn't help feeling a little proud.
Look, she was also popular among the girls!
She recalled that even when her brother was engaged to Elder Sister Yue Ting, it was their parents who made the decision. She should really teach her brother a lesson when she went back.
Master Guo was still smoking his tobacco pipe, but compared to yesterday, his face was full of smiles and he was much kinder.
Wen Shi and Zhao Fei were the same. It seemed that after two days of contact, they really liked Lin Mengya's carefree manner.
"Come, take a seat. These people are all famous leaders of our trade routes. We will inevitably meet them on the road in the future. Yuan Lin, come and pay a visit. "
Master Guo addressed her as the son of his old friend to others. In addition to showing their closeness, he also wanted to protect her.
Moreover, now he introduced her to these leaders, so that they would know her.
If they met in the future, they would also give her face.
Lin Mengya immediately stood up and bowed humbly. This made the leaders at the surrounding tables nod in satisfaction.
Then, they introduced the young men beside them.
Although the hall of the inn was spacious, there were only four tables near the center.
Master Guo was sitting on the east side. Sitting on the west side was a caravan heading to Dongxia. The leader was a strong old man who looked similar to Master Guo.
Although he was not as strong as Master Guo, there was a shrewd look in his eyes. However, there was a shrewd look in his eyes. Sitting beside him was a man who looked very gentle and refined.
However, he was wearing a silver mask, so no one could see his expression. He was wearing a white robe, which was very eye-catching among the greenish-gray coarse clothes.
Presumably, before Lin Mengya came out, he was also the focus of attention.
"This is Lord Maliu, who is heading to the Eastern Summer Country. When it comes to making a living on the trade route, this old man has lived much longer than me. Old man, how are you? When are you going to report to the King of Hell? "
Lin Mengya hurriedly bowed. No wonder he was sitting next to Master Guo. From their tone, the two of them were definitely close friends.
Lord Maliu was also easy-going. After a smile, he began to criticize Master Guo.
"You old man, how dare the King of Hell take me in as a disciple. This young man is not bad, but he is a little weak. In the future, he will learn martial arts from Master Guo, so that he can be stronger. Although the business is not as expensive as the escort team, it is also risky. If you are not careful, you will be tricked by some people. "
Lord Maliu seemed to be implying something. After he finished speaking, the guy sitting opposite him could not suppress his anger.
"Bang!" The big palm landed on the table.
A dark-skinned man, who was even thicker than Wen Shi and Zhao Fei, glared at him.
"You filthy horse, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I, Black Tiger, will tear your mouth apart!"
Lord Maliu was not angry at all. He looked at him with contempt, as if he did not take this burly Black Tiger seriously.
"Brother, why are you so angry? Lord Maliu is famous for being a straightforward man. Moreover, he did not mention you by name. Why are you asking for a snub? "
The one who spoke was a pale-skinned young man sitting next to Black Tiger.
Lin Mengya realized that Black Tiger was just a hired thug. The one in charge was the young man, who looked more delicate than her.
The young man was dressed in dark green silk and satin. Although he had the appearance of a young master, he still had the appearance of a young master. Although he looked like a childe, there was a hint of scheming in his femininity.
Lin Mengya knew that he was a difficult person to deal with just by looking at him.
However, since they were both trying to make a living, why was Lord Maliu so against him?
"What Lord Maliu said is not a wish. White Dragon, I don't care if you betray the people from other families. But we, the people of Lieyun, are not at your mercy. If you know what's good for you, you will release those people you captured. Otherwise, don't blame me for breaking the rules! "
A gloomy voice suddenly floated out from the mouth of that table of foreigners.
Although Xiaoyu and Baisu were from Lieyun, Lin Mengya noticed that Uncle Lie and the others were also wearing the clothes of Dajin.
