"Hey——" the female shopkeeper came up, raised her hand, and the silk was swept across Hua Qianyu's face.She stood in front of Hua Qianyu and said: "Nine rooms, just now, the slave's family made a mistake, and there are still ten or so vacant rooms above, so I will clean up nine rooms for you, young master, do you still want to live?"

Hua Qianyu smiled politely: "Then I will trouble the shopkeeper."

"You're welcome," the shopkeeper smiled, and then waved, "Xiaoer——"

The waiter in the shop threw the white towel over his shoulder and hung it up: "Hey, let's go!" Then he recruited two people to fetch water in the backyard.

After the shopkeeper gave a little signal, someone put the two square tables together.At the same time, the shopkeeper greeted: "Come, come, gentlemen, sit—"

Hua Qianyu pulled An Mingxi to sit together, and the rest stood behind them without permission.

The shopkeeper glanced at them and thought: Isn't this quite regular?Why do you have to live in the same room as the owner?

As shrewd as she is, how could she not know that Hua Qianyu was deliberately finding fault?But seeing that Hua Qianyu didn't react too much, and there was no fear on his face, whether he really noticed something is still unknown.So she asked again with a smile: "What would you like to eat, young master?"

Hua Qianyu said: "One serving of all the dishes."

"okay!"

The shopkeeper responded with a smile, turned around but rolled his eyes—it was really looking for faults, but since you want to eat, I will give you enough to eat.

When the shopkeeper retreated, Hua Qianyu leaned into An Mingxi's ear and said, "There may be something wrong with the food, brother, don't eat it, and don't drink the water."

An Mingxi was puzzled: Why didn't you leave?

On the other side, after Dong Taiyuan handed over the task of watching the car to Dong Qiming, he entered the inn to check the situation.The moment he stepped into the threshold, the voices of men and women in the inn made him look sideways at the sources of the voices.There were six occupied tables—the table where the two young masters sat together counted as one.Five tables, fourteen strong men, two licentious women.Most of the people were drinking and eating quietly, and only those few men and women were talking and laughing.

It seems that the past few days have been too smooth, and he let his vigilance down, so he let the young master step in here without going through the inspection - if these people in the inn are all guests, why are there not so many carriages and horses in the backyard?In such a remote place, would anyone walk here to drink?

What's more, even though they deliberately pretended to be doing their own things, the moment he stepped into it, almost everyone cast their eyes, obviously wary.

Not good.

Dong Taiyuan walked up to Hua Qianyu, clasped his fists and saluted: "Master."

"Is the arrangement ready?" Hua Qianyu calmly pushed away the untouched drink in front of him with the back of his hand.

"That's it."

"It's none of your business here. Feed the horse well, and we'll continue on our way tomorrow—Li You, Ah Jiu, go to the car with Tai Yuan and get a few wine jugs to fill with wine."

Ah Jiu was puzzled: When did the young master start drinking?

So he said: "My lord——"

Li You interrupted: "Yes." As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced at Ah Jiu.

Ah Jiu trembled at the look, then quietly followed Dong Taiyuan and the others, walked out of the gate, and went around to the backyard.

Seeing that the two servants were leaving, the others didn't pay attention.

Dong Taiyuan frowned, obviously not at ease.

Even if he knew what the young master meant, if this went on, there would be chaos, and the two young masters at the center of the chaos would definitely be in danger.But if there is no carriage, how far can you escape when the number of people and the familiarity with the terrain are far less than those of the bandits?Otherwise, leave the cumbersome carriage and ride a horse?Three horses, one horse can seat two people, nine people... It doesn't matter, as long as the young masters can leave safely... Then what happens after this?He and Qiming must stay to stop the bandits who are chasing after them, and the risk of traveling for the sons without guards will increase.Even if the letter is sent back to Beijing, the new guards will arrive for at least half a month...

According to the young master, to release Liyou and Ah Jiu must be to send these two burdens who are not martial arts away first... If the young master wants to save all the servants, then... the young master will so easily agree to let him take the lead first. Does the horse run away?If you hesitate and miss the opportunity...

If you want to increase the survival rate of everyone, you must use a carriage...

If the young master's preparations were made according to the young master's original plan, would he catch the young master and the others by surprise if he changed his approach temporarily?

The situation is urgent and there is no aftertaste for thinking, but if you act without thinking, the risks will inevitably increase.

Dong Taiyuan discussed with Dong Qiming in a low voice, wanting to hear Dong Qiming's thoughts.

Dong Qiming scratched his head: "If you don't want the carriage...the money in it...how will you live in the past five years? Do you earn money while doing business?" The wooden bed in the canopy contained a lot of money. Gold and silver, after all, I don't know if cashier tickets are accepted in some remote places.

Dong Taiyuan said: "There must be the second son's business in the south of the Yangtze River, but it will take a while to find the business."

"Why don't we give them all the money and let them let us go."

Dong Taiyuan shook his head: "How could it be so simple? They set up the inn in such a remote place to avoid the government from looking for it. How could they let people who know its true colors leave alive?"

"Then... trust me, you are young, but you are also extremely intelligent... Probably, you are more willing to obey our orders than to make our own decisions."

Dong Taiyuan was silent. He glanced at the handyman who was staring at them not far away, and his brows were furrowed even tighter.

Ah Jiu poked his head out from the carriage, and said, "There is a kettle, do you want to put wine in it?"

Le Liyou stood with an indifferent expression, ignoring him.Ah Jiu looked at Dong Taiyuan again, only to see Dong Taiyuan beckoning for the handyman to come over.

The handyman walked over with a lantern, still enthusiastic: "What's the matter?"

Dong Taiyuan pointed to the trough filled with grass and asked, "What kind of grass is this?"

The handyman was confused by the question, and poked his head over: "What kind of grass? Qing——"

Suddenly, the carotid artery and the vocal cords were cut, he let go, the lantern fell to the ground, and the candlelight lit the paper cover. While covering the bleeding wound, he looked at Dong Taiyuan with astonished eyes.

Dong Taiyuan calmly wiped off the blood on his face, wiped the dagger on the handyman, and inserted it back into the cuff.

The handyman fell to the ground, and the kettle in Ah Jiu's hand also fell to the ground.

Le Liyou picked up the kettle and said to Ah Jiu, "Go in."

The scarlet beside the fire filled Ah Jiu's eyes, and he suddenly felt nauseated, knelt in the front room, poked his head out of the car, and kept retching.

Le Liyou said indifferently: "Swallow it back—sit in it, unless you want to die here too."

Ah Jiu looked up at him, trembling all over - his innocence made Le Liyou irritated.Originally, Le Yang felt anxious when he was still surrounded in the inn, but it turned out that this man still behaved like this, and almost added chaos when he was inside...

Le Liyou walked to the front of the pony carriage, pulled up the bridle, and said to Dong Taiyuan and Dong Qiming, "Which one of you owns that one?" Pointing to the bigger one.

Dong Taiyuan said: "You take the palm." The small carriage will stay to pick up the servants, so he thought it would be better for someone who knows martial arts to stay.

Le Liyou said: "If the young masters are caught up, who will protect them?"

Hearing this, Dong Taiyuan suddenly changed his mind and said, "Qiming, you go."

"You go." Dong Qiming naturally knew that it would be more risky to stay.

"You are not as good as me, so stay behind?"

"you……"

At this point, Dong Qiming could only pull up the horse's bridle obediently.

Dong Taiyuan went out of the side yard first to check the situation, and saw no one coming out of the inn, so he waved his hand to let Dong Qiming move first.

However, with the sound of horseshoes, Dong Taiyuan, who knew he couldn't hide it, entered the inn and walked in front of Hua Qianyu.Without waiting for him to speak, Hua Qianyu took An Mingxi's hand and walked out of the seat.

The female shopkeeper who lifted the curtain came over unhurriedly and said, "Hey, guest officer, the dishes are just ready to be served, are you leaving now?"

Hua Qianyu had no intention of arguing with her, so he just pulled the hand holding An Mingxi's hand behind his back, let An Mingxi get close to him, and said, "Be careful."

The air froze for a while.

Among the bandits who attracted their attention, only one noticed the sound of horseshoes coming from outside the stack——

"They ran away!"

After the sound, all the bandits stood up. After Hua Qianyu said "Run", he took advantage of the gap between them drawing their knives from the bottom of the table, and pulled An Mingxi to run outside. The servants ran behind to protect them. Afterwards.

Hua Qianyu turned his head and saw servants blocking the door, waving daggers and short swords to avoid the swung swords, but they kept on guarding, showing no intention of retreating.

An Mingxi ran with Hua Qianyu with a beating heart, and was about to follow his gaze when Hua Qianyu suddenly said, "Don't look!"

An Mingxi looked at Hua Qianyu upon hearing the sound, only to see that Hua Qianyu had already turned his gaze to the front - not far away, Dong Qiming came, and behind him was their carriage.Beside the front room of the car, Ah Jiu stood, looking at them anxiously.

Hua Qianyu didn't mean to stop running. They crossed paths with Dong Qiming, and they didn't stop until they got close to the carriage.Without a break, Hua Qianyu asked An Mingxi to get on the carriage, and Ah Jiu supported An Mingxi, letting him step on steadily.Then when Ah Jiu was about to help Hua Qianyu, Hua Qianyu pushed his hand away and let him get into the car.

"Son..."

Hua Qianyu couldn't stand it, and said, "Go up!"

"Yes!"

After Ah Jiu sat down, Dong Qiming hurriedly urged behind Hua Qianyu: "My lord, get in the car!"

Hua Qianyu turned around and saw three people running towards him, Le Yang hurriedly caught up with them and knocked down two of them.Hua Qianyu looked at the bandits who were running, not only did not retreat, but instead bypassed Dong Qiming who was blocking the way and drew out the sword at his waist——

Time to come in handy, too, he thought.

"Son!"

Dong Qiming wished he could carry Hua Qianyu into the car, but Hua Qianyu pushed him behind him, and said, "Protect him."

"Son!"

Hua Qianyu raised the volume: "Take him away!"

Dong Qiming held his breath in his heart, but he had no choice but to walk towards the carriage.

An Mingxi, who heard Hua Qianyu's shout, looked at his back through the window, and saw Dong Qiming coming, but Hua Qianyu had no intention of following, and couldn't help shouting: "Qianyu!" However, the other party did not respond , but swung his sword at the knife-wielding villain who was a head taller than him.

His heart was in his throat, and An Mingxi couldn't make a sound anymore. He watched Hua Qianyu dodge the machete every time, but his nerves became more tense each time. When the second bandit joined the battle between the two, An Mingxi's nerves snapped immediately, but before he could see Hua Qianyu was out of danger, the figure in front of him gradually disappeared into the night...

The carriage has gone far.
