Chapter 153 Rivers and Lakes ([-]) Black shop

The rain in the mountains is getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that it will not stop today.

The mountain road is not easy to walk on rainy days, and many people choose to stay overnight in the inn.Fortunately, this inn is not too small, enough for everyone to stay.

After the conflict in the daytime, Ye Chen had no other interaction with those strong men, but there were other people who got close to Ye Chen and asked him about the blood cloud, but Ye Chen only said that he didn't know, and he didn't know. No one is good to press, so we can only let it go.

The inn is surrounded by wilderness, and the surrounding area is very quiet at night, only the sound of rain can be heard.

Many people in the inn had gone back to their rooms to rest, and only a few scattered people downstairs were still eating.

Yan Nanxu entered the backyard of the inn while no one was looking.

The backyard was pitch black, only the innermost room shone with faint light, and the light and shadow intertwined in the slightly open gap, as if someone was working inside.

The distance was too far, and Yan Nanxu couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, so he hesitated for a moment, and slowly approached.

The sound of the rain continued, as if something was mixed with the sound of the rain.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

It's like... someone is chopping something with a knife?
"Guest officer, why are you here?"

When Yan Nanxu wanted to get closer, a figure suddenly flashed over. The waiter, holding an oil lamp on his hand, appeared here at some point and blocked the way.

He still had the same attentive smile he had during the day, but it looked weird no matter how he looked under the flickering candlelight.

Yan Nanxu glanced behind him, and said calmly: "It's nothing, the backyard is quite big, I want to find a place to practice sword."

People in Jianghu put swordsmanship first, and it is very common to practice swords in the morning and evening. This reason is not surprising.

"Oh, that's it. But guest officer, it's getting late and it's raining again. Although the backyard of the shop is big, it's quite messy. Let's forget about it today."

The shop waiter made a "please" gesture as he spoke, the candle in his hand flickered, and his face was gloomy.

Yan Nanxu looked at him, nodded and said, "Okay." Then he turned and prepared to leave.

"By the way, what is that room for? I think there are still people in it." Before leaving, Yan Nanxu asked casually.

"That's it," said the waiter with a smile, "there is the back kitchen over there, it smells of oily smoke, be careful not to stain your clothes, guest officer."

Yan Nanxu glanced at the place again, thanked the waiter, then left the yard and went back to the front room.

"Host! There must be something wrong there, the waiter in this store doesn't look like a good person!"

The system has been terrified since hearing Yan Nanxu say that this is a black shop this afternoon, and everyone feels uneasy and kind.

"It is true that he is not a good person, but he is not weak either. We cannot act rashly for the time being."

Nanxu didn't hear his footsteps at all before the little second flashed out just now. It can be seen that the man's light work is very good. He is not an idler. Even if you work hard, you won't live for so long.

There are a lot of people here, if they work together to deal with the people in the inn, it will be more than enough, but it is a pity that they have their own concerns and cannot expect to work together.

It seems that it is not feasible to deal with it head-on, so we can only try to deal with it secretly, at least to ensure Ye Chen's safety.

After Yan Nanxu returned to the front room, he looked back and saw that the shop waiter had also followed him, hesitated for a while, and prepared to go upstairs to the room to rest in front of him.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion upstairs, crackling and crashing sounds resounded throughout the inn, followed by deafening shouts──
"You bastard! Dare to hit me?! See if I don't peel your skin──"

The words came to an abrupt end before he could finish. The man was suddenly kicked from the stairs to the second floor, and the strong figure fell directly down!
Yan Nanxu happened to be standing near the stairs and immediately turned to avoid it.

It's just that when the strong man flew down, he was dancing wildly with a knife in his hand. Yan Nanxu dodged a little slower, and the bamboo hat he was carrying was cut by the blade, and a piece of the white gauze hat on the side was broken.

The strong man fell hard to the ground, lying on the ground in pain, unable to get up, and then he screamed twice, his two companions were also kicked off, and the three of them lay on the ground moaning together.

At the same time, the instigator also appeared and slowly walked downstairs.

"You guys came to provoke me first," Ye Chen looked at the few people rolling all over the ground, and began to try to reason, "You even broke the window and put drugs, this is too old-fashioned, okay? ah?"

There were quite a few people who came to wait and see when they heard the news. At this time, everyone looked at Ye Chen with different expressions. These strong men were not incompetent. A young man like Ye Chen defeated them effortlessly. His strength should not be underestimated.

Ye Chen went downstairs and found the piece of white gauze on the ground, and saw the damaged bamboo hat behind Yan Nanxu in a blink of an eye, immediately understood, and apologized: "Sorry, I broke your bamboo hat, I will pay you for a new one. "

"Nothing, no need."

"How can I not use it, I will definitely pay for it," Ye Chen said seriously: "Don't worry, but there probably aren't any bamboo hats for sale around here, or I'll sell them to you when I enter the city tomorrow, just wait a little longer. "

Facing Ye Chen's sincere and earnest eyes, Yan Nanxu thought for a while, then nodded slightly, agreeing.

Ye Chen patted Yan Nanxu's shoulder resolutely, and promised: "You don't have to worry, little brother, I will definitely find someone exactly the same!"

"It doesn't have to be exactly the same..."

"Oh, yes," Ye Chen understood in seconds, "I should find a more beautiful one!"

"It doesn't mean that..." Yan Nanxu simply felt that this would allow him to get closer to the protagonist.

"Ah!" The conversation was suddenly interrupted, and someone cried upstairs: "This... what's going on! My baby!"

The proprietress came out upstairs with a handful of ceramic shards, crying, "Who did it, these things are my treasures!"

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped forward to apologize and promise compensation.

The proprietress cried pear blossoms with rain, and I felt sorry for them, "These are all antiques from the previous dynasty, and I managed to get them at a big price."

Antiques from the previous dynasty just randomly placed in the corridor?Will anyone really believe it?

But Ye Chen seemed to believe it. Seeing that the proprietress was crying, he was a little flustered, and quickly approached to comfort him, "It's okay, I'll pay, I will definitely pay."

The proprietress looked at Ye Chen, and suddenly leaned forward, her arms climbed up to Ye Chen like vines, she leaned into his ear and said softly: "The young master must keep his word, and when I go back to count the number, I will go to the young master later." Checked in the room."

"You don't need to check it..." Ye Chen was very unaccustomed to being close to a woman, he pushed her away with effort, took a few steps back, and said bluntly, "I'm ticklish, you make my ears uncomfortable, and you smell so bad , I'm not used to it, don't get so close."

His breath is like orchid, soft and gentle, he said it as if he didn't take a bath, it's really boring.

The proprietress' expression changed, but she quickly recovered, and insisted, "This...the verification is still needed."

"No need," Ye Chen waved his hand, and said generously, "Just count and report directly tomorrow, and I will pay whatever you want."

After speaking, Ye Chen turned back to Yan Nanxu and said: "And your little brother's hat, why don't you think about the style tonight, whatever it is, at worst I'll let someone make it."

"As for you guys, I won't pay for your medical expenses."

Thinking that the follow-up matters had been dealt with, Ye Chen went back to the room contentedly.

Seeing that the owner had left, the proprietress stopped crying and greeted the guests to rest with a smile.

"Host, is the protagonist really stupid or fake stupid?" The system is really confused by Ye Chen's series of operations, and feels that "people are stupid, rich in money, easy to cheat" is written all over his face. Is it an illusion?

"I don't know, I can't see it."

Late at night, the sound of the rain slowly stopped, leaving only the water on the leaves dripping from time to time, making the night even more quiet.

In the pitch-black room, the window suddenly moved slightly, and someone deftly turned into the room from the outside, with almost no footsteps touching the ground, and there was no movement at all.

The figure did not stop after entering, raised the crossbow in his hand, and fired several arrows at the person lying on the bed!

This crossbow has probably been remodeled, the sound is extremely light, and the sound of the string vibration is dull, and it can't make any fluctuations in this silent night. It is really a good weapon for killing people secretly!
"Swish" several times, the flying arrow hit the target, but the sound of the hit was a bit abnormal, the man could not help but pause.

Just when he was dazed, a sword light flashed across the room, splitting the crossbow in one fell swoop, and approaching the man's neck!
The man was startled for a moment, and immediately dodged, but the sword was light and thin, and the sword was extremely fast. After he dodged the blow, the sword light turned back suddenly, and hit the vital point in an instant!
A shallow red mark appeared on the neck, and the man let out two "boo hoo", followed by a large amount of blood pouring out of the red mark, and he died suddenly on the spot!
The dark clouds cleared, and the moonlight shone in from the window. Yan Nanxu stood beside the corpse, the sword in his hand gleaming coldly, like the cold moonlight.

"Hey, host, this person doesn't seem to be the waiter?" The system saw the person's face clearly and asked curiously.

"It's not surprising, who said that there are only Xiao Er and the proprietress in this store, and the Xiao Er's skill is probably better than this person."

"That's right," the system said thoughtfully: "It's really a black shop, and it's going to restock the 'vegetables' tonight. Should we, the host, remind the people here?"

Yan Nanxu vetoed the idea, "In the middle of the night, you may not believe what you say, and you may not run away if you believe it. Trouble."

"Then what to do? Don't care?"

Yan Nanxu looked at the sky where the rain had stopped, then at the yard below where debris was piled up, and said slowly, "Burn it."

When a fire comes, you should know to run away, right?
