Chapter 124: Fear

"What? Does it look good?" Han Yun sat calmly on his seat and looked at the people around him. In an instant, those people dispersed and continued to do their own things, but everyone's voices were even quieter. Many, some people still glanced at the two of them intentionally or unintentionally.

Not long after, the boy came to Han Yun with the tray in his hand tremblingly, and said cautiously: "Sir... your food is here!"

Seeing his terrified look, Han Yun asked a little funny: "Am I that scary?" As soon as he said this, the boy was so frightened that his legs softened and he knelt down, kowtowed and said: "My lord! , It’s because the villain has eyes but doesn’t know Mount Tai, first, he offended you, I hope you don’t remember the villain’s mistakes, and let the villain be a fart!”

Seeing him like this, Han Yun lost all interest, and said lightly: "Get up, go down if you have nothing to do!"

"Yes, yes!" The servant stopped, got up quickly, and retreated without even daring to lift his head. He casually glanced at the people in the lobby, and with some dispirited hastily put the table on the table with Xuefeng. In this atmosphere, the two of them ate a bit of delicious food, and they got up and left after a while. When they walked up to the boy, looking at his slightly trembling body, Han Yun sighed, and said earnestly: "Justice is in the heart, and some people cannot be afraid!"

After finishing speaking, he walked away, leaving only these words echoing in the lobby, shaking everyone for a long time.

Walking out of the tavern, the two continued to walk towards the huge silhouette. Not long after they left, groups of soldiers arrived at the tavern and surrounded it, and the leader broke through the tavern first. The door of the tavern revealed the figure inside, and the leader shouted: "Where is your shopkeeper? Let him come out to see me!"

For a moment, there was no sound in the lobby. The man frowned, then pointed at a person casually and said, "Tell me, where is the shopkeeper?"

The person who was pointed to was startled, trembled all over, and said with great reluctance: "The shopkeeper... the shopkeeper passed out!"

When the man heard this, he said displeasedly: "Have fainted? It's time to faint! Let the people from this store come out and speak!"

Not long after, the young man was pushed out, he nodded and bowed quickly and said: "I have seen all the officials and lords, the villain is the young man in this tavern, I don't know anything!"

When the man heard it, he sneered and said, "Hmph! You said you didn't know before I asked you, did you not take me seriously?"

That young man is just an ordinary person, how could he stand this kind of "intimidation", he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Mr. Jun, the villain has absolutely no intention of disrespecting you. You must learn from him, Mr. Jun! "

The man said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I won't punish you, get up and talk!"

As if he had received an amnesty, the boy quickly got up, his expression extremely respectful, and there was no abnormal expression at all. Only then did the general see the body on the ground inside, and frowned and said: "Uncle Guo really died in Here you are!”

As soon as the words came out, the boy's legs gave way and he was about to kneel down again, but was interrupted by the general: "Don't kneel in a hurry, tell this general, who is the murderer?"

Only then did the boy stand still, before he had time to wipe the cold sweat off his brow, he said: "The villain doesn't know who the murderer is, he only knows that they are a man and a woman, nothing else!"

The general nodded, looked at the corpse on the ground again, and waved his hands in distaste: "Deal with it!"

"Yes!"

After the corpses were cleaned up, the general was about to go back home, but when he turned around, he caught sight of the servant's hesitant look, and asked, "What else do you want to say?" ?"

The boy was startled, and then took two steps back in fear, but there was another voice in his mind, which was fighting against the fear in his heart. The general saw his hesitation, and didn't point it out. , Just waiting quietly like this, if he doesn't move, the soldiers under him naturally won't move either, and the drinkers in the lobby naturally don't dare to move either.

Many eyes focused on this young servant, he was sometimes fearful, sometimes firm, but then turned into fear, with a hint of bewilderment...

I don't know how long it took, just when the general was a little impatient, the boy finally made up his mind and took a step forward. He saw the determination in the boy's eyes, and the boy tried to make his voice calmer. Looking at the general, he said, "Actually... Uncle Guo provoked him first. After being subdued, he still refused to accept it, and even threatened to let us all be buried with him!"

As soon as these words came out, the already extremely quiet tavern became even quieter at this time. The drinkers in the lobby looked at this young man with different eyes, with approval, pity, encouragement, and gloating...

He also looked at the general firmly, he didn't know what he would face in the future, but now he just wanted to tell the facts he saw, that's all, for this, he was ready to accept punishment!
"Step, step..." The general's footsteps sounded in the silent tavern. He stood in front of the boy and raised one hand. As soon as the boy saw the raised hand, he closed his eyes subconsciously, preparing to face the strong wind. The heavy rain was coming, but after waiting for a while, there was still no movement. Then he opened his eyes and looked, and saw the hand patting his shoulder.

The boy looked at him in astonishment, he smiled at the boy, and said softly: "Young people, not everyone, they are all bad guys, there will always be someone who will stand up and uphold justice!"

The boy reacted for a while, tears filled his eyes in an instant, and he was about to kneel down again, but he found that he was imprisoned by the general's hand and could not kneel down, so he heard the general say: "There is gold under the man's knees, kneel down to heaven!" Kneel down to your parents! You better stay home and kneel to your parents!"

As he spoke, that hand patted him on the shoulder again, looked at him with deep meaning in his eyes, and then turned around and waved his hand: "Retract the team!" Walking around until it disappeared, the boy was watching the direction the team was leaving.

When he came back to his senses, he found that the atmosphere in the lobby was a little weird. For some reason, he felt that the eyes of these people were weird, but he couldn't explain why. This made him very uncomfortable, and he was very uncomfortable for a while.

Not long after, the shopkeeper Youyou woke up, breaking the silence in the lobby, "Ouch!" Hearing the shopkeeper's groan, the servant hurried over to pinch his waist and legs for him, and by the way put him in the tavern. He told the shopkeeper everything that happened inside, but as he said more and more, he saw that the shopkeeper's face became more and more ugly, until finally, he couldn't help it anymore.

"Snapped!"

The boy covered his face in surprise. There were still five fingerprints on it. He looked at the shopkeeper in front of him who had always been very kind to him, and didn't understand why he wanted to hit him.

"You...you really let me down!" The shopkeeper pointed at the boy with trembling fingers, and said bitterly, "Why, why did you say so? You just love to show off?"

Maybe because he didn't come up in one breath, the shopkeeper almost fainted again, so he could only keep calming himself, and after a while, he said: "Come with me later to make amends!"

The boy subconsciously asked, "Where can I make amends?"

The shopkeeper said angrily: "Of course it's the uncle's mansion, and you can live or die at that time, and you will be at your mercy!"

……

The boy didn't know how he walked out of the tavern door. Ever since he got that slap, he looked at everything around him numbly. For some reason, he suddenly felt that everything he was familiar with here had become very strange. The tavern It was no longer that tavern, and the shopkeeper seemed to be a different person.

"Did I... say something wrong?" He murmured, he didn't dare to turn his head, because he knew that everyone in the restaurant must be looking at him at this time, "Are they watching my joke?" I don't know Why, an unreasonable anger surged in his heart. He clenched his fists tightly, but he couldn't vent his anger. He didn't know why, but he was very angry.

Was he angry with the shopkeeper for slapping him?no.

Are you mad at yourself for saying the wrong thing?no.

Are you angry that you might die soon?Nor is it.

He always wants to vent, but he is just an ordinary person, not those high-ranking warriors, so why should he vent?

When I think of this, I feel a little discouraged, but I am still not reconciled, "The weak...do they really have no right to speak?" He lowered his head and looked at his hands, which were covered with calluses from the long-term waiter life. It reminded him of the young man who killed Uncle Guo before, his hands were very clean, as white as jade, like a woman's hands, "I'm so envious!"

Suddenly, an indifferent voice interrupted his thoughts: "Don't stand around stupidly, let's go! Otherwise, the uncle's house will blame us all and we will all be unable to eat and walk around!"

It turned out to be the shopkeeper, he glanced at him indifferently, and then walked forward, the shopkeeper was also taken aback by his attitude, but then he was relieved, why care so much with a dying person, seeing The direction he walked was the direction of the uncle's mansion, so he stopped thinking about it and followed up, but in his heart he was calculating how much he would have to suffer this time to get the forgiveness of the uncle's mansion.

Not long after, the two walked to the gate of the Uncle Guo's Mansion. At this time, the people in the Uncle Guo's Mansion had already heard the news of the Uncle Guo's death. He walked out, looked at them indifferently, and said coldly: "Let them be buried with the master!"

The guards on both sides came up immediately after receiving the order, and the shopkeeper was frightened out of his wits when he heard this, and quickly knelt down, begging for mercy repeatedly: "My lord! My lord! The villain is just an ordinary person, I am doing Business! My lord, please have mercy! I don't want to die yet!"

But that person didn't even want to take another look at him, he just flicked his sleeves and went back to the mansion, the door closed with a bang of "Boom!", and there was even the hope of the shopkeeper's life being closed!
The guards gradually approached the two of them, and the shopkeeper backed away again and again, shaking his head and waving his hands in horror: "Please, don't kill me, please, don't kill me!"

These words were repeated over and over again, but these guards would not let a person go just because he begged for mercy, they still slowly surrounded him, and some of them raised their sticks and smashed them down... 
This scene was seen by the boy, but at this moment he had nothing to say, he felt that he was already dead, even after seeing the shopkeeper being beaten to death by them, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Death!" It's okay, I'm free!"

He closed his eyes, resigned himself to waiting for the death sentence, and even heard the sound of the guards approaching him, and the sound of sticks rubbing against the ground. For some reason, he was not afraid at all.

Time passed by bit by bit, but the imaginary pain of the stick added to the body did not come. Suddenly, he wanted to take another look at the sky here before he died. An unforgettable scene: the surrounding guards fell to the ground silently, seemingly fainted, and a man stood in front of him, with his hands behind his back, leaving him a stalwart back.

He finally couldn't contain his fear, and a trembling voice sounded: "Is...you?"
