At dawn the next day, everything was still immersed in sweet dreams, and a glimmer of light just appeared on the gray sky. A rapid knock on the door sounded in a small inn.
"Bang bang bang~"
Bai Sanlang was sleeping very lightly. He opened his eyes with a snap, turned his head and looked at the figure reflected on the door with an unkind look.
Chuan Yun, who was also woken up, was very depressed and lay beside the charcoal basin. She found that she was particularly sleepy today.
She looked at the rhubarb lying next to her with disgust. She saw it tilted its head and closed its eyes, its mouth was slightly open and it was dripping with laughter.
Last night, the innkeeper was drinking and fistfighting with his old friends. This dog went over to watch the fun. Maybe the boss was too drunk. He took his own drinking bowl and poured a bowl for him boldly. He also threatened that he would not come back until he got drunk.
In the end, he imitated a dog and barked "Wangwang" in the inn, which made many guests laugh.
Rhubarb is a glutton and will eat anything. This is evident from the fact that it happily eats the Chinese medicine soup prepared by Shirasaburo.
"Sanlang, Sanlang, get up quickly, I'm telling you something big has happened."
Yue Chen kept banging on the door with both hands, looking anxious. Guard Xiao Wu was holding an iron sword and leaning on the fence, watching quietly.
"I'm not allowed to sleep so early in the morning. It's because that turtle grandson bastard doesn't have a long head. He thinks I'm not good..."
"..."
A burst of complaints sounded in the inn.
The other guests in the inn were woken up, and they all exhaled the fragrance in unison. They were about to open the door and come out to beat the turtle grandson who disturbed his dreams and teach him to be a good person.
But unexpectedly, they saw the glare of the tall figure holding a sword behind the instigator. They were instantly frightened. They all hid behind the door and looked at each other. They only dared to look at Yue Chen's back with unkind eyes and cursed in a low voice:
My son has no butthole.
The innocent innkeeper hurriedly put on his cotton coat and got up, rubbed his temples, hunched over his hands, breathed a sigh of relief, and went out.
Yue Chen was obviously used to being self-centered and did not realize that his current behavior caused a lot of trouble to others. He saw that the door did not open for a long time and he still knocked on it regardless.
"Oh my little ancestor, can I call you my master? I am a small businessman..." The innkeeper trotted in a panic. When he got closer, he received the air-conditioning from the tall guard. He trembled subconsciously and panted.
, "I said... this young master, it's so early in the morning if you don't want to sleep with others, why are you still sleeping!"
At this time, the sky was mostly dark, and people's facial features and clothing could be vaguely seen in the inn.
When Yue Chen heard this, he paused and glanced around subconsciously. When he saw a pair of resentful eyes behind a door, he took back his hand in embarrassment and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, boss, I didn't consider it carefully."
After saying that, he said to the people behind the door: "I'm sorry, everyone, I'm the one who's here, I'm here to apologize to you."
After speaking, he bowed with full sincerity.
Seeing his low posture, everyone was about to show off his power and teach him a lesson. Guard Xiao Wu changed the posture of holding his sword, his eyes were cold, and they were immediately deflated like a rubber ball and closed the door with curses.
The innkeeper dared not complain when he saw other tenants acting like quails. How dare he?
The man in black looked like an evil spirit that could not be offended.
He waved his hand, said nothing, and walked back to his room with empty steps. He was probably still hungover.
The door creaked open from the inside, revealing Shirasaburo's little face that had shed his baby fat.
"Sanlang, you finally opened the door, but I'm so worried."
Warmth rushed to his face. Yue Chen rubbed his frozen hands, turned around and gestured to Xiao Wu, then walked through the door and pushed Bai Sanlang's small body into the house.
Xiao Wu, who followed closely, closed the door thoughtfully.
As soon as Yue Chen entered the room, without waiting for Bai Sanlang to speak, he walked towards the window with a slight crack, as if he wanted to close the window.
He is very familiar with himself. He is simply a sociopath, and he is a severe one.
Chuanyun complained in his heart, thinking that only such a person could make Bai Sanlang unable to take advantage of him.
"Don't close the windows. There is charcoal fire in the house and it will be poisonous." Bai Sanlang reminded.
"It's okay, I would rather be poisoned to death than freeze to death." Yue Chen closed the window tightly, turned around and complained softly, "I don't know what the hell the weather is, it's so cold all of a sudden."
Bai Sanlang saw that he had not talked about business since he entered the house, so he reminded him: "What big thing happened?"
Being reminded of this, Yue Chen suddenly remembered and said angrily: "I'm telling you, this Zhizhou of Pengzhou is simply a bad person. I just received the news that Zhang San and others were beheaded before dawn.
, the vegetable market right at the corner of the street.”
He slammed the table, his face full of anger.
When Chuan Yun heard this, due to her professional habits, she subconsciously made a judgment in her heart.
Needless to say, it was handled so casually. It was obvious that he was either killing people or just trying to deal with Yue Chen, a noble son of a family who had no experience in the world.
"So...are you satisfied with the explanation he gave?" Bai Sanlang did not curse Zhizhou together with righteous indignation, but hit the nail on the head with his words.
He looked at Yue Chen quietly. This young man, who was nearly one round older than him, was so impetuous when things happened. It showed that his family was powerful and favored him so much that he cursed so recklessly.
The governor of a state.
Who is he...?
Yue Chen's face turned pale when he heard this: "You mean...he is trying to give me an explanation."
Bai Sanlang nodded, thinking that since this person was from Zhaozhou, his family must be quite powerful, would he also know that person?
In order to build a relationship so that he could ask for information about that person, he reminded him: "It's not necessarily Zhizhou. Think about the suspicious state magistrate yesterday."
"It's not the magistrate of the state... the magistrate of the state... huh - damn villain, I wonder why the person hasn't come for so long, it turns out that someone tipped him off." Yue Chen frowned, thinking that he went to the government office to take care of people, the more he thought about it.
The more I regret it.
Bai Sanlang couldn't help but make up his mind: "You personally said that you should hand over the person to them."
"But I just told them to get to the bottom of the matter, and I didn't ask them to kill the person directly!"
"How do you know they didn't find out?"
"How could it be so fast? I'm not stupid..." Bai Sanlang denied without thinking. He soon paused, as if he had thought of something.
"You mean... they..." Yue Chen couldn't believe it. He couldn't express the "collusion between government and business" in his heart. His face became more and more disgusting, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "They are planning to treat me like a fool."
."
"Do you have evidence?"
"What kind of evidence do you need? This young master is the proof." Yue Chen took out a gold medal from his chest and slapped it on the table very proudly. His arrogance suddenly leaked out, "If this young master wants him to die at the third watch, he will not live until the fifth watch."
."
Bai Sanlang looked at the gold medal that was slapped on the table, clenched his hands suddenly, and his pupils shrank. This chapter has been completed!
