Liu Qingcheng rushed directly into Ye Wushuang's room, closed the door, and looked out the window with some worry and confusion.
"fine."
Ye Wushuang expressed relief, but frowned slightly and said, "It's just... robbing."
"Robbery?"
Liu Qingcheng raised her eyebrows and said with a surprised expression: "Is it impossible? This is a warrior inn!"
The inns of the Cangyun Empire are generally divided into two types. The first type is a residence where the imperial army, officials and some big shots can stay and rest; the second type is a place where warriors who come and go can rest.
The inn where Ye Wushuang and two people stayed belongs to the second type, also known as the warrior inn.
As the name suggests, almost all the people staying here are warriors; who is so bold as to dare to come here to rob and risk his life?
"Many of the robbers in the Cangyun Empire are warriors; and on the Tianjian Continent, there are even warriors who have stepped into the martial arts and turned into bandits. Although it is rare to rob warriors' inns, they are not unheard of."
Ye Wushuang explained: "It's just that it seems that we are not very lucky, it just happened to happen once."
To be honest, Ye Wushuang was a little depressed at the moment. Before entering Jizhou City, he encountered Yang Qianhuan who was ambushed and robbed; now before entering the imperial capital, he encountered the Warrior Station being robbed.
This time on the way to the imperial capital, it was really not peaceful!
Liu Qingcheng's brows furrowed, and she said worriedly: "Then what should we do? Otherwise, let's go..."
Since this group of people knew that this place was a warrior inn, they still dared to rob it. They were obviously capable enough and confident that they could deal with all the warriors. Under such circumstances, it would be unwise for them to continue to stay here.
"fine!"
Ye Wushuang stood up, poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "If they are sensible, it will be fine if they don't provoke us; if they are ignorant and come to provoke us...then their good days will be over!"
"Um!"
Seeing the third brother's confident expression, Liu Qingcheng nodded with peace of mind.
Since Ye Wushuang said it was okay, it must be okay; she trusted Ye Wushuang's words 100%.
No longer worried, Liu Qingcheng instead felt a ray of curiosity in her heart, wanting to see what the person who dared to rob the warrior inn had three heads and six arms, and immediately prepared to open the window to find out.
However, as soon as Liu Qingcheng's hand touched the window, without using any force, the window suddenly squeaked and opened automatically.
Then, a pair of big, smart eyes flashed out.
"ah!"
Liu Qingcheng was immediately frightened, screamed, covered her red lips, staggered, and quickly retreated.
A little head popped in unexpectedly.
The dirty little face looked young and delicate; the big and smart eyes were looking around the room without any recognition. Then, the little guy didn't mean to be polite at all, and stretched out his arms.
, the short body swung directly in.
This is a five- or six-year-old girl, with ragged clothes and unkempt hair. Her whole body exudes a faint odor, and she looks like a little beggar who has fallen into the streets.
"You...who are you?"
Liu Qingcheng came back to her senses at this moment, lightly covered her red lips, and asked in surprise.
The little girl did not answer immediately, but turned around and leaned against the window, glanced outside, then closed the window firmly, then smiled sweetly at Ye Wushuang and said, "Hello, brother,
Hello sister; my name is Ren Xiaomeng!"
"Ren Xiaomeng?"
Liu Qingcheng looked confused and looked up and down at the little girl cautiously.
"right!"
Ren Xiaomeng blinked her eyes, looked carefree, walked directly to Ye Wushuang, and sat down directly. She didn't show any fear, but said proudly: "You met me, it's your luck."
"I might as well tell you that even though I'm dressed in a mess, my family is actually quite wealthy in the imperial capital. However, I encountered some difficulties today. If you are willing to help me, I will definitely reward you generously when I return to my family.
"
As Ren Xiaomeng spoke, she poured herself some tea and drank it leisurely.
That posture and expression made her look like a young lady from a wealthy family, which was completely incompatible with her clothes.
Liu Qingcheng was even more surprised and looked at Ye Wushuang in confusion.
Ye Wushuang was not restrained at this moment. He sat down directly across from him and asked curiously: "Then I have to ask, how is the reward generous?"
Ren Xiaomeng put down the tea cup and said without hesitation: "At least, one top elixir for each person!"
One top elixir for one person?
Liu Qingcheng's red lips suddenly opened slightly, and she was extremely surprised.
There are only a few top-level elixirs in the entire Cangyun Empire. The little girl in front of me actually opened her mouth and was rewarded with a top-level elixir. This reward...
Is it possible that everything she said is true?
"Of course, it must be more than just a magic pill."
Ren Xiaomeng glanced at the surprised Liu Qingcheng with his peripheral vision, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and there was a hint of cunning in his big eyes, and he added: "As long as you help me hide here today, what kind of top-grade spiritual stone is this?
I can also give you martial arts skills."
"Third brother..."
Hearing this, Liu Qingcheng was completely moved and looked at Ye Wushuang with some excitement.
"Don't worry!"
Ye Wushuang returned a calm expression to Liu Qingcheng, without any change on his face.
Not to mention whether what this little girl said is trustworthy, even if it is trustworthy, he can't even look down on top-notch elixirs, top-grade spiritual stones, etc. with his current eyes.
"Such a high reward is really exciting."
At this moment, Ye Wushuang picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I don't know, how do you want us to help you?"
“It’s easy!”
Ren Xiaomeng's eyes flashed with an expression of a successful plot, and he said calmly: "Did you hear the noise outside? They are a group of bad people, they want to kidnap me, and then ask for ransom from my family; as long as you let me stay,
If you escape their capture, the reward I mentioned will be yours!"
"So simple?"
Liu Qingcheng was surprised.
"Yes, it's that simple."
Ren Xiaomeng glanced at Liu Qingcheng and said confidently: "How is it? Is this a good deal?"
“Not worth it.”
Ye Wushuang put down the cup at this moment and shook his head.
"First of all, since the group of people outside dare to break into the Warrior Station, it means that they are confident enough and not afraid of the warriors inside. If they can't find you later, they will definitely search the rooms one by one. It's not difficult to keep you.
, but it’s difficult to evade their search.”
"Secondly, the reward you mentioned is indeed very attractive, but..."
Ye Wushuang leaned forward slightly, stared at Ren Xiaomeng closely, and said with a smile: "If you don't have a family, who can you ask for those rewards from?"
"What do you mean?"
Ren Xiaomeng's expression suddenly changed slightly, and her originally confident expression suddenly became nervous.
"The meaning is very simple..."
Ye Wushuang sat up straight and said with a smile: "I'm not interested in drawing a sword to help, let alone helping a liar."
As soon as these words came out, Ren Xiaomeng's expression changed completely. He lost all his previous confidence and calmness. Instead, he became frightened and his whole body tensed up. His big smart eyes, blinking rapidly, seemed to be thinking about countermeasures.
.
fraud?
Liu Qingcheng narrowed her eyes and looked at Ren Xiaomeng in surprise. Her original excitement calmed down immediately; after thinking about it carefully, she suddenly realized.
Indeed, although what this little girl said is true, if it is really what she said, the family behind her must be very large, and it is very likely that it even has a pivotal position in the imperial capital.
Such a powerful family would definitely send powerful warriors to protect its children, especially those as young as five or six years old. How could it be reduced to such a state?
What's more, the families that can produce top-quality spiritual pills and top-quality spiritual stones at will are at least the four major families in the imperial capital; but Liu Qingcheng clearly remembers that among the four major families in the imperial capital, there is no one named Ren!
