The man pushed the bodies of the two with his hands, and the two remained motionless.

"Hmph, it can be regarded as making these two girls dizzy!" He grinned grimly.

Yu Wenrui, who was lying on the table pretending to be dizzy, also wanted to laugh, her face was buried in the shadow, and the corner of her mouth curved into a mocking arc.

The man thought in his heart: These two girls look like young girls. If they are handed over to the leader, the leader will be overjoyed, and he will not treat him badly.

The man took out the hemp rope and was about to move forward to tie the two of them into the house. Unexpectedly, just as his hand touched Nan Rongyue, Yu Wenrui, who was sitting on the other side, suddenly jumped up without warning and grabbed onto the table. He threw his tea cup at the man's face.

The man was caught off guard, even more unable to dodge, and was smashed right in front of him.

There was a gap in his forehead, and blood flowed from his forehead to his eyes. The man covered the wound in pain and took two steps back.

As soon as she heard the movement, Nan Rongyue quickly got up and retreated to Yu Wenrui's side to make a defensive posture.

The man covered his forehead with one hand, pulled out a dagger from his waist with the other, and glared at Yu Wenrui with hatred.

Yu Wenrui looked at him expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Unexpectedly, we didn't pass out from your drug!"

"Damn it!" The man became furious and cursed viciously.

The man at this moment has no time to think about how the two women in front of him saw through his plan, and how they knew that the food was drugged with sweat.

He just wanted to make a quick decision, and he just wanted to take these two women down as soon as possible.

The two sides confronted each other, and the tense situation was on the verge of breaking out.

The pain on his forehead stimulated him all the time, the man on the verge of mania finally couldn't hold back and moved first, he raised his dagger and rushed towards the two.

The two women in front of him looked weak, and he didn't believe that with his strength and kung fu, he would not be able to take them down.

But Yu Wenrui took out two big knives from the space ring without saying a word and held them in his hands.

The man's footsteps stopped abruptly. He stopped on the spot, looked at the short dagger in his hand, and then at the thick double knives in Yu Wenrui's hand. Compared with the two, his jaw almost dropped from shock.

What kind of weak Liu Fufeng is this?This woman is comparable to the tough tribal women in the desert!

"Are you sure you want to fight me?" Yu Wenrui paused every word.

The short man saw that Yu Wenrui's lower body was extremely stable, he looked like a trainer, and immediately fell into a panic. His heart was fluctuating, and even his legs were a little weak.

But when the man touched his forehead, his hand was covered with blood, the blood on the wound must have not yet solidified, and his resentment rose.

This woman dared to hit him with a teacup, she was so tired of her job!

What's more, as an indomitable tribal man, how can he succumb to a mere female stream!

"Look at the move!" The man swung his dagger and was about to stab Yu Wenrui.

But he suddenly turned the blade, and the dagger in his hand turned abruptly in mid-air, and the tip pierced Nan Rongyue's neck.

If you can't beat this one with a big knife, you can always beat another weak woman who doesn't have any weapons!

This woman is shorter than him, she looks very thin and weak, and she must not have high combat effectiveness...

It's a pity that this time the man was wrong again.

Because how could the saintess of the Temple of Light be something ordinary people could handle?

However, Nan Rongyue's figure was still not moving. When the man's dagger was approaching her, she raised her seemingly slender thumb and index finger, and gently pinched the man's wrist holding the dagger.

The man wanted to pull his hand away, but found that no matter how hard he tried, his wrist was still pinched by the opponent, and at the same time, the arteries in his wrist were also strangled by the opponent.

Seeing Nan Rongyue raised his other hand, he knocked down the dagger in the man's hand lightly, and retreated quickly after hitting his abdomen with a punch.

While the man was clutching his stomach in unbearable pain, Yu Wenrui raised his hand and pushed the wooden table in front of him forward. The wooden table moved forward rapidly, rubbing against the ground and making harsh noises.

With a bang, the corner of the table hit the man's abdomen again, the man spat out a mouthful of blood, and he collapsed on the ground, obviously seriously injured.

The pair picked up ropes that had been scattered on the ground and tied the man to a wooden post.

Severe pain in the abdomen, facing the two women with explosive fighting power in front of him, the man was so regretful that his intestines were green.

"If you want to kill or cut, it's up to you!" The man closed his eyes and turned his head away, as if he was going to die fearlessly.

Seeing the man with his eyes closed, Yu Wenrui pulled Nan Rongyue to sit down without speaking.

But after a while, Yu Wenrui began to lose his mind, flirting with Nan Rongyue.

Business matters, seeing that Yu Wenrui is not serious, afraid of being discovered, Nan Rongyue glanced at the man's direction, then turned his head to stare at her.

Yu Wenrui thought Nan Rongyue's angry little face was so cute, she raised her eyebrows, put her index finger on her lips and blew a kiss.

The movements of the two were very subtle, and the flickering between eyebrows was also a different kind of stimulation.

The man waited for a long time, but the imaginary punches and kicks did not come, and the man's eyes opened a crack.

The two looked serious, pretending that nothing happened.

The man opened his eyes and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you going to kill me?"

Yu Wenrui sneered and said, "Do you want us to kill you?"

"No, no, no..." The man said immediately when he saw that there was a way out.

The corner of Yu Wenrui's mouth curled up, and he said sarcastically, "Oh, are you bandits in the barren desert so cowardly?"

"You, you, you..." The man was too frightened to speak.

"How do I know that, right?"

The man looked at Yu Wenrui as if he had seen a ghost, and he nodded numbly.

Nan Rongyue also had doubts in her heart, she smiled at Yu Wenrui, and said relaxedly: "Don't be foolish, just tell me!"

Seeing his daughter-in-law opened the golden mouth, how dare Yu Wenrui refuse to follow, he cleared his throat and began to speak eloquently.

"From the moment we entered your inn and saw you, I felt that you were weird."

"Impossible!" The man didn't believe it, his arrogance immediately rose, and he refused to admit defeat with a stiff neck.

Nan Rongyue caught a glimpse of Yu Wenrui's calm face, and believed it in her heart, and she had the impression that Sister Rui would never fool anyone casually.

With a half-smile, she said to the man: "Don't believe me, just listen to what she said."

Yu Wenrui had a look of winning, and she said: "First, it is your clothes. The cloth shirt you are wearing is at least [-]% new, and as far as I know, although this kind of cloth is common in the market, the price is not expensive. Gao, but it is absolutely impossible to appear on you!"

The man pouted in dissatisfaction and asked, "Why can't it appear on me?"

After listening to the first half of Yu Wenrui's words, Nan Rongyue took a closer look at the man's clothes. A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she also grasped the key point.

She took Yu Wenrui's words and said: "You have said it yourself, the small town you live in is located at the farthest edge of Xizhou, and bandits have been harassing you all year round. The market in your town has not opened for a long time, and You are afraid of bandits, and you don’t leave the gate all day long, so it’s impossible to rush to the remote markets to buy things.”

Speaking of this, the man's face changed drastically, and he secretly hated himself for being careless for a while.

Nan Rongyue kept talking, and said again: "As far as I know, your daily needs are all supported by the relief materials distributed by the government once a year. Can you explain that you can only wear old clothes and eat food all year round? Why are you wearing a cloth shirt that is probably new when you are wearing relief supplies?"

"This..." The man choked, speechless.

Yu Wenrui glanced at Nan Rongyue appreciatively, and said, "The second point is that his walking posture is different from ordinary people."

"Walking posture?" Nan Rongyue was really puzzled now.

Yu Wenrui nodded, "People who ride horses and camels all year round may have their legs stretched and deformed to a certain extent, and their walking posture will also be different from ordinary people."

Nan Rongyue recalled carefully, it was indeed so.

"But even if you combine the above two findings together, I just think you are a bit strange. These two points seem unreasonable, but it makes sense to force an explanation."

"Is there such a possibility that you are a very courageous store owner, you are not afraid of those bandits at all, and you often take risks and ride fast horses to remote markets to buy daily necessities."

"But when you served those two dishes and introduced the names of the dishes to us, I overturned my previous assumption." Yu Wenrui said blankly.

At this moment, Nan Rongyue listened with great interest, and even the man tied to the pillar was attracted by Yu Wenrui's wonderful reasoning.

"When you served the dishes, I observed your right hand. There is a long and thin callus on the top of your palm near the four fingers. Undoubtedly, it was worn out by you holding the rein all year round."

But Yu Wenrui changed the subject and said: "But I found that there is a thick callus in the middle and even the lower part of your palm, and such thick calluses also exist in my palm!"

Yu Wenrui showed the callused palm to the other party, and said: "It is left after holding weapons such as the hilt and handle all the year round. It is unique to people who practice martial arts."

"Look at the back of your left hand, there is a hideous knife scar, I think you may find similar sword wounds all over your body, and your lower body is stable, and your legs and feet are very strong when you walk. Look at your waist From this, I conclude that you are undoubtedly a reckless man who practiced martial arts, and you have had the experience of fighting people more than once."

"It's ironic, you are obviously bold, but you deliberately showed us that you are as timid as a mouse and afraid of bandits, but what you don't know is that the traces of the years engraved on you are accumulated over the years. , it’s something you can’t cover up even if you try to cover it up!”

The man turned pale when he heard this.

Yu Wenrui leaned on the back of the chair and raised Erlang's legs and said: "At that time, I wondered if you had served in the army and fought in the army, and came here to open an inn after retiring."

Speaking of this, Yu Wenrui paused and put on an inscrutable look.

"But there is something wrong with my intuition, whether I have missed any key points, I carefully sorted out my thoughts, and finally found the crux."

"Store, do you remember, after you opened the door to let us in, I asked you if you were a local, and you gave me an affirmative answer."

"However, your tone of voice betrayed you when you spoke. I have spent a lot of time in Xizhou, and I have deliberately identified your accent. Your tone of voice has an exotic and barbaric flavor. Not local, not even from Xizhou!"

Hearing this, Nan Rongyue also vaguely understood something.

"What's more, even if you have some spare money after serving in the military and want to open an inn, you will definitely not choose to open it in such an inaccessible and infested place. First, there are no customers, and second, it is dangerous. A normal person would not do this act!"

"What time...is it?" Yu Wenrui looked at Nan Rongyue asking for help.

"Fifth point." Nan Rongyue smiled.

Yu Wenrui turned his head to look directly at the shopkeeper and said, "Sorry, you have too many flaws, I forgot how much I said..."

That being said, Yu Wenrui showed no apology on his face.

"The fifth point is to talk about the two dishes you served."

"You should know more about the place where the shallots are produced than I do." Yu Wenrui put it off, with a half-smile.

The man seemed to be thinking of something, and his face turned paler.

"You've also thought about it, the local sand onions are produced on the Gobi Desert a hundred miles away, which is quite far from the town, and it is not under the jurisdiction of Xizhou. It is also a gathering place for bandits. To pick them, you have to gather in groups It is impossible to ride horses and camels in groups, and since the robbers were rampant, few people go out to pick sand onions, and the people in the town rely on relief food to survive."

"As far as I know, sand onions have a short shelf life and should not be stored for a long time. Let me ask you, where did such fresh sand onions come from? I'm afraid they were picked just a few days ago!"

After hearing this, Nan Rongyue suddenly realized that the store owner said that he was afraid of the bandits, but he dared to go to the Gobi Desert occupied by the bandits to pick fresh sand onions, which was contradictory.

According to Nan Rongyue's thinking, if a person risked his life to pick precious ingredients, how could he hide them carefully and not show them to others, but he was so generous as to make them into dishes for them to eat?

No wonder Sister Rui suspected that there was something wrong with the food and handed her the antidote elixir!

"The last flaw," Yu Wenrui took out a pot of water from the space ring and shook it in front of the man, then unscrewed the bottle cap and took a few sips to moisten his throat.

"Last point, water resources are extremely scarce in the desert, not to mention a border town where bandits are plagued, but after we ate, you actually made a big pot of tea for us to drink!"

As we all know, water in the desert can save lives, but in areas where water resources are scarce, it is common to not take a bath for several months, and people generally do not drink water unless necessary.

Bandits live in the desert all year round, and they love to rob the nearby people of water resources. According to common sense, the people in this small town should have learned their lesson and hid water in other places after experiencing so many robberies. nowhere to be found.

And what about this shopkeeper?There is still extra water to make tea for the guests. Is this water really inexhaustible?

Shallots and tea are already plentiful in the border areas, and even the county head can't taste them every day, but such food is used extravagantly by the store to entertain guests. I'm afraid there are really ghosts in the food.

"By the way, you may not know that when I was drinking tea, I tried to test you by asking you about banditry."

"Exploring?" Nan Rongyue was puzzled.

"Yes, I have carefully observed his tone and expression. They are all mocking the government and helpless to the bandits, except that there is no fear and hatred!"

"I'm just curious. As a commoner in a border town who has been harassed all the year round, you don't hate those gangsters at all?"

In the end, Yu Wenrui's scattered eyes gathered into a bunch, and he concluded slowly:

"A warrior with experience in fighting with others, a shopkeeper who runs an inn in a border town and speaks with a foreign accent, and this person has a lot of supplies in his hands, and he travels back and forth between the barren desert and the border of Western States all year round on horseback..."

Her eyes were bright, and she expressed the common aspirations of the three people present: "Such a person, I'm afraid it's not the spy of the bandits in the desert planted in the small town!"
