C469 The Reins of the Horse



C469 The Reins of the Horse

At this moment, no one thought of Xiao Yun.    

    

How he was doing seemed to have become unimportant.    

    

But was that really the case?    

    

He could lie peacefully in the room as everyone imagined, waiting for Fox Eye to return to her heart, waiting for Prime Minister Qiu to make some achievements.    

    

Of course not!    

    

The key was that the Moonlight Tavern was too tempting.    

    

After coming to this world several times, Xiao Yun wanted to use his original ability.    

    

Unfortunately, he never had the chance.    

    

It was not easy for him to fight a battle, but he lost without any hesitation. If it wasn't for his hidden weapon, he would have been killed by the Northern Wei's First Saber Move long ago.    

    

And this time, the opportunity had finally come!    

    

He was curious.    

    

The people under Prime Minister Qiu were obviously not ordinary.    

    

If they went, they would die.    

    

There was no room for negotiation at all.    

    

Either he had been taken in by someone, or he had really died. There was not even a single person who had escaped to send a message.    

    

This proved that there were not only experts inside, there should also be some sort of mechanism or information.    

    

There were traps, arrows, and so on.    

    

Furthermore, it could guarantee that no matter what happened inside, the outside would not be able to hear it.    

    

It could be considered miraculous.    

    

Xiao Yun prepared to make a trip.    

    

But he couldn't just go there right away.    

    

The most outstanding assassin in his previous life couldn't make a mistake in such a place.    

    

First, he had to scout the area, then prepare everything he needed. Then, he had to test the area three times, roughly understand the situation inside, and then go in and fight with others.    

    

This was more important than anything else.    

    

What they could do now was to prepare.    

    

Xiao Yun was well prepared.    

    

First was the soft armor.    

    

It was something close to his body.    

    

The fine steel wire net was as soft as a slightly thicker piece of clothing.    

    

Of course, it wasn't light.    

    

The jacket was made of leather, hard inside and soft outside.    

    

It was different from the leather jacket he wore for comfort.    

    

The inner part of the coat was made of thick skin that was as hard as armor, and the outside part was made of soft leather. In this way, the movement would not be affected too much.    

    

After all, the leather inside wasn't completely covered, and the joints were exposed.    

    

The outer layer of skin was coated with a few layers of oil. It did not reflect light, but it was waterproof. It was very suitable as a Night Cloak.    

    

A thick belt was wrapped around his waist.    

    

There were a lot of things inside.    

    

Flying needles.    

    

Flying knives.    

    

A few ropes.    

    

Bottles of medicine.    

    

Flamethrowers.    

    

There were even black gunpowder made out of soil.    

    

There were even several types of incense.    

    

They were used in different situations.    

    

A simple set of clothes would always make one's waist and abdomen swollen when put on.    

    

But it wouldn't affect the movement.    

    

It was actually much better than places like his hands and shoulders.    

    

For example, if a fat man with a wide waist moved nimbly, normal movements wouldn't affect him at all!    

    

Moreover, if outsiders saw it, they would not think that there was a mess of things inside, just like a Treasure Chest.    

    

Taking ten thousand steps back, if Xiao Yun was discovered, then in the darkness of the night, if one could not see his face clearly, they would only roughly investigate his body size and height.    

    

Then... in their eyes, Xiao Yun must be a fat man!    

    

To Xiao Yun, this became a very good disguise.    

    

Xiao Yun used more than two days to prepare these things.    

    

Of course, he did not work hard in this.    

    

During the day, he would walk on the streets.    

    

Now, he would go to some unimportant places.    

    

It was as if he was riding the reins of a horse. As one of the few people in the capital who could ride all over the city, he narrowed his eyes and shook the wine bottle. Wherever he went, no one would feel that he was out of place.    

    

That was why he came to the Moonlight Tavern on the second day.    

    

When he got closer, he really couldn't see this place.    

    

Because the surrounding greenery was really good.    

    

In the capital that was full of dust, it was like a bamboo forest that pitied people. It was unique.    

    

However, it was also extremely beautiful.    

    

The tall trees and the full crown of the tree made people raise their heads. They could only see lush greenery, but they could not see the huge tower hidden behind them.    

    

Only when the distance was too far could they see the tip of the tower.    

    

Yes.    

    

It was more like a building than a building.    

    

It was more like a very wide tower.    

    

It was divided into eight levels.    

    

There were actually two empty floors in the middle. If all of them were counted, it would be ten floors.    

    

Presumably, when the building was being built, that guy with a high position also knew that his floor could not be bigger than the number "nine," so he used eight floors.    

    

As for what exactly was going on inside, he could not see clearly for the time being.    

    

Pretending to be curious, he rode his horse around the huge courtyard.    

    

He also couldn't find an entrance.    

    

He simply got angry and cursed out loud.    

    

Then, he found a nearby street and casually chose a teahouse to sit in.    

    

"The best tea, use the water well and boil it"    

    

The waiter hurriedly came over but was stopped by the innkeeper halfway.    

    

The shopkeeper personally ran to Xiao Yun and flattered him, "Sir, we don't have many things in this shop. I'm afraid we can't satisfy the customer's needs."    

    

Xiao Yun frowned and turned to look at the innkeeper. He said in a deep voice, "People say the store is big and cheating customers. Your store isn't big either. What's wrong? Do you also want to cheat customers?"    

    

"How would we dare? How would we dare?"    

    

The shopkeeper hurriedly said," Customer, you can tell that he is a superior person. Sir, our shop is really a little crude. We don't have many things, and we are afraid that we can't take care of him well. Even if the customer is unhappy, then we are the ones who have committed the crime of killing our heads. We really... really don't dare to do so. "    

    

Xiao Yun came to a realization and waved his hand. "It's fine. This young master came here to drink tea. When I look at your shop, I naturally know your standards. Unless you guys are really slow, why would this young master blame you?"    

    

Only then did the shop owner feel relieved. From what Xiao Yun said, he should be a reasonable person.    

    

It was also good to entertain.    

    

He was not worried that Xiao Yun would blackmail him.    

    

Such a young master's temperament couldn't be faked by a swindler.    

    

He hurriedly asked Little Two to take out the best tea leaves.    

    

He boiled water again and brewed tea again.    

    

The shopkeeper even wiped the teacup over and over again, almost throwing away all the liquid.    

    

The tea that was finished was actually not bad to drink.    

    

It was indeed meticulous work. Even if the tea leaves were a little worse, the taste was actually also okay.    

    

Xiao Yun shook the tea bowl and said, "Actually, there are three types of tea: oil tea and flour tea. There are also the flowers and plants tea, and the flowers and plants tea, which are also divided into two types. If it's cooked and dried, it needs to be cooked and drunk. The taste of the tea could only be tasted. If it was cooked, the tea must be served first. When the temperature of the water cooled down by 20%, the tea would be added. Only then can the beauty of the tea be preserved, just like how life is full of all kinds of things. It is difficult to adjust the words of the masses, so one needs to be careful and act according to the circumstances. Only then can one achieve greatness."    

    

The shopkeeper heard it as if his soul was floating. Although he couldn't fully understand it, he knew that Xiao Yun was talking about great knowledge. It was a question that even if he spent money, he wouldn't be able to learn from tea-school universities.    

    

He hurriedly nodded and bowed, expressing his gratitude.    

    

Gua had actually been busy at the side all along.    

    

She was carrying a small chest behind her, like a Treasure Chest.    

    

Just by wiping the table, she used three types of tools.    

    

Then, she used a tea set.    

    

It was just that Xiao Yun did not use them.    

    

While drinking tea, she also pulled a mat from the side and used a wooden stick to prop it up as a screen.
