It was surprisingly quiet in Dongjun City. The shops on both sides of the street had closed their doors long ago, and only a few restaurants still had their lights on.
If he hadn't known about the living habits of the residents of Dongjun before, Ji Jie would never have believed that civil unrest had occurred here. No matter where he looked, the place looked very orderly.
"Haha, it's been a hard journey, I'll treat you to a midnight snack!" Ji Jie pointed to a restaurant not far away and said, "Let's also try Dongjun's specialties!"
The four of them entered the hotel, and the waiter hurriedly came forward to say hello: "How many of you, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel?"
"Eat and stay in the hotel!" Ji Jie said with a smile: "First prepare a table of wine and food for us, the dishes are your local specialties, and prepare four clean rooms. We will have a rest after dinner!"
"Okay, you five can sit down first, I'll make arrangements right away!" The waiter shouted to the back: "A table of fine Dongjun style wine and food, and five upper rooms!"
A table of wine and food was quickly prepared, all delicious and delicious, and the four of us were very excited.
"Don't worry yet!" Mei Duo took off the silver hairpin and tried every dish, and then said with confidence: "It's ready to eat!"
"Duo'er, are you too careful?" Ji Jie asked in a low voice.
Mei Duo pouted and said, "Be careful, what if they set a trap inside and intend to make money or kill someone?"
"Then they are really good at what they do!" Ji Jie made a double entendre: "In front of you, an expert in playing tricks, I'm afraid they have nothing to hide from, right?"
Mei Duo raised her eyebrows, and the four animals began to feast.
The food tasted very good and the wine was strong enough. Xiong Ben stuffed something into his mouth while stuttering: "Are you too tired today? I feel a little sleepy before I'm full. It's weird!"
Weird? It’s not weird at all, because someone poisoned the food!
**? It’s impossible. Didn’t Mei Duo try it with a silver hairpin?
Why is it impossible? There is a kind of ** silver hairpin that cannot be tried. This kind of ** is made from a mixture of several common herbs. Before mixing them together, none of them has the function of **. Since it is not **, of course
You can’t try it out! Put these ingredients in different dishes, and they will turn into ** when you eat them.
"Pour the wine on!" Ji Jie ordered, and Xiong Ba immediately obeyed.
While the waiter and shopkeeper were not paying attention, Ji Jie threw five green pills into five bowls respectively. The pills were the concentration pills refined by Zhao Qian herself, which could cure any kind of disease in the world.
"Just for fun!" Ji Jie whispered to the four people. The four of them understood and nodded together.
"Here, cheers!" Ji Jie picked up the bowl and clinked it with them, then drank it all in one gulp. The three brothers also drank it in one gulp, with only Mei Duo having a small taste.
The waiter walked up to the counter, and the shopkeeper said to him: "It's almost done, let's get ready in the back!"
"knew!"
A quarter of an hour later, all five people were lying on the table. The shopkeeper clapped his hands a few times, and five or six burly men walked out from behind, holding ropes and other things in their hands.
"These people appearing in Dongjun City at the moment are definitely not merchants. They are probably spies sent by the Qin army to find out the news!" The shopkeeper waved his hand and said: "Tie them up and throw them into the cellar. They will be the same as those arrested yesterday.
Lock a few of them together!”
Several people came up, tied up Ji Jie and others, and then carried them into the cellar.
After doing this, the shopkeeper said to the waiter: "Go and inform the boss and tell him what happened just now. During this time, the Qin people have been sending people to our place. There must be a big move, so the boss should be careful." Some!"
In the humid cellar, a few big men were still humane. After throwing Ji Jie and the others in, they lifted Mei Duo and placed them gently on the ground.
There were originally four people locked up in the cellar. They were all wearing black costumes. They seemed to be very skilled. They must have been accidentally shot and thrown here. Otherwise, there would be no scars on their bodies.
"Grandma's!" Xiong Bi spat out the dirt in his mouth and said, "Throw me face down on the ground. You guys are waiting. It's time for you to suffer!"
Then, all five people stood up, and the four people next to them were shocked. They were stunned and slept for several hours before they woke up!
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
"A businessman!"
"That's my companion!",-
Both groups were unwilling to tell their true identities. Judging from their appearance, the four men in black should be engaged in jobs such as killers.
Ji Jie suddenly thought of Lu Buwei. Could these four people be sent by Lu Buwei? Just try and find out! He pretended to be depressed and said to Mei Duo: "It's so unlucky. The Prime Minister asked us to come here to carry out the execution." As for the assassination mission, we were kidnapped as soon as we arrived in Dongjun. Fortunately, we have been trained since childhood, otherwise we would have been dead!"
The two brothers looked at each other and didn't understand what Ji Jie's words meant. Mei Duo reacted the fastest and winked at the three of them and said: "Yeah, I didn't expect that this is a black shop. We are locked up here. Why are we still here?" How to complete the tasks assigned by the Prime Minister?"
Ji Jie clearly noticed that the four men in black pricked up their ears in unison, and one of them's eyes shone brightly.
"Then what should we do?" Xiong Ba also understood that they were acting.
"Well... we should..." After Ji Jie said this, he looked back at the four men in black with a nervous expression, and then laughed and said: "Haha, it's nothing, just take it as it comes, and have a good rest before doing anything else. Intend!"
The leading man in black winked at his companions, and the four of them sat on the ground again.
After a while, the leading man in black finally couldn't bear it any longer and asked: "This friend, are you sent here by Prime Minister Lu Buwei?"
Ji Jie pretended to be surprised and said, "How did you know?"
The man in black smiled lightly and said: "We are too, our tasks should be the same!"
"Then since we sent you here, why did you ask us to come?" Ji Jie asked.
The man replied: "Mr. Lu is always cautious in doing things. He sent two teams to assassinate Ji Jie just to be more safe! I heard that the guy is very evil and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close to him!"
Sure enough, it was Lu Buwei who sent him. No wonder he kept urging Ji Jie to march quickly. It turned out that there was an assassin ambushed in Dongjun.
"Then we are so unlucky that we ended up in the same illegal shop!" Ji Jie said with a smile: "Haven't you ever thought about escaping?"
The man in black shook his head and said: "It's useless. There is only one exit from the cellar. The door is made of bronze and cannot be opened from the inside!"
"Oh, it can't be opened from the inside!" Ji Jie turned into a bad smile and turned back to the two brothers and said, "That's easy, isn't it?"
The two brothers nodded together, causing the four men in black to look at each other. What do you mean, is this okay?
