Chen Ermao understood instantly. He was so angry that he stamped his feet and shouted loudly, "You Xiong Fei, how dare you take advantage of others."
The waiter didn't dare to speak when he saw how angry he was. He waited until Chen Ermao had scolded him enough, then asked carefully, "Sir, are you staying here or not? Can you give me accurate information?"
Chen Ermao stamped his feet and gritted his teeth and took another copper coin to the guy, "Why don't you stay? I'll stay for one more day."
After sending the little boy away, Chen Ermao began to think about it.
I only have a dozen copper coins, and I can't even go back to my hometown no matter what I say.
But the Protector has already given me a silver reward, so I don't have the shame to ask for the reward a second time.
But if you don’t find the Protector, what can you do?
In the end, Chen Ermao decided to shamelessly go to the Duke's Mansion, even if it was just a small expense, he could go home.
As for how to fool Chen Xiaobei when he returns, that will happen after he returns.
Thinking of this, Chen Ermao got up and washed himself, walked out of the inn, made inquiries and rushed to the Duke Protector's Mansion.
Chen Ermao, although this kid is illiterate, he has a sweet mouth. He asked while searching, and he actually found the door of the Duke Protector's Mansion.
Chen Ermao was very polite and said respectfully to the guard at the door, "Is this the Liu Mansion of the Protector of the Country?"
The guard looked at him and nodded, "Yes, what can you do?"
Chen Ermao became more and more respectful, "Please inform me that my name is Chen Ermao who came here last night. I have something important to do and want to meet with the Marquis."
Chen Ermao?
The guard looked at him quizzically.
It's a coincidence that the guard's name is Liu Dong. He was on duty when Hou Liu came two days ago, so when he saw Chen Ermao coming again, he was suspicious, "Where are you from?"
"I came from Hetou Village to explain to the Marquis about the plot against the second young master."
Liu Dong couldn't help but touch the back of his head. There was a person here two days ago, but the boy was as thin as a monkey. The land in front of him was as strong as a hill. It was obviously two people.
He asked doubtfully, "How many people named Chen Ermao are there in your village?"
Chen Ermao was even more dumbfounded, "It's just me!"
Liu Dong immediately realized that something was wrong, "Wait here."
After saying that, he turned around and ran inside, hurriedly coming to see Liu Kai.
When Liu Kai told him the situation, he was also dumbfounded.
Liu Dong asked carefully, "Butler, what should we do?"
Liu Kai frowned, walked around on the ground twice, and spoke slowly, "It's okay to throw some money away. If a countryman fools you, people will laugh out loud if this news gets out."
"You bring this Chen Ermao into the house, serve him well and eat well, and leave him in the house to wait for my next instructions."
Liu Dong turned around and went out, but Liu Kai came directly to see Liu Xiangnan.
When Liu Xiangnan said the matter, he felt incredible and couldn't help but snorted coldly, "This is really a ghost. They are all coming to me to ask for silver rewards."
"Master Hou, I think I need to contact the young lady and find out what Chen Ermao looks like, and then see if the person in front of me is real or fake."
Liu Xiangnan nodded, "Not only do we have to find out whether this one is true or false, but we also have to find the other one. This matter must be clarified, otherwise our Liu family will really become a laughing stock."
Just as the homing pigeon flew to Hetou Village, Chen Xiaobei had already arrived at Qingniu Mountain with the prepared mines.
This time he made ten mines.
According to his idea, he first set up a few hidden sentries in the woods to protect the safety, and installed four or five more along the road, leaving three behind and installed them under the steep slope.
He explained this thing in detail to Ma Biao who was guarding the mountain. Ma Biao was doubtful.
"Brother Xiaobei, is this really as amazing as you say?"
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly, "After I install it, I will mark it so that your people can watch it and don't touch it by mistake."
Chen Xiaobei went down to the head slope and started laying mines. Ma Biao and several others watched intently.
Chen Xiaobei carefully made the thunder, marked it, and gestured to several people again.
"Don't touch it. If you happen to touch it and hear a squeaking sound, just lie down on the ground."
Chen Xiaobei also personally lied down on the ground twice and demonstrated to them that after lying down, he covered his ears with his hands and kept his face close to the ground to minimize the impact on himself.
Seeing his serious look, Ma Biao wanted to laugh in his heart, but he still had to deal with a few words.
"Brother Xiaobei, we remember everything you said."
Chen Xiaobei finished his work and returned to the steep slope. He stood here and looked around, and nodded with satisfaction.
I don't believe it. Ten landmines can't blow up you Sima Wushuang.
Calculating the time, this group of people was trapped by themselves, and they were almost on the verge of collapse after more than ten days, so they finished installing the mines and planned to stay one night before leaving.
Indeed, as he expected, Sima Wushuang was a little out of breath at this time.
The birds here in Longyan are too scared to come.
They had to run five or six miles to catch prey, but they couldn't bear to eat barbecue every day.
In desperation, Sima Wushuang decided to go over and have a look tonight. If there was a chance to run down the mountain, that would be great.
Seeing that it was the middle of the night, Sima Wushuang had already reached a place only five miles away from the steep slope.
From then on, Sima Wushuang did not dare to walk on the mountain road. Instead, he carefully walked forward through the grass next to him. After taking a few steps, he stopped and listened to see if there was any movement around him.
His move also cleverly avoided several landmines originally designed by Chen Xiaobei.
After spending more than half an hour, I finally walked into the woods nearby.
This place is only thirty feet away from the steep slope.
But there was no cover.
Fortunately, it was cloudy tonight and the sky was relatively dark. Sima Wushuang thought to himself that if he moved lightly and slowly enough and cut and paste on the ground, he should be able to avoid the enemy's possible whistle.
Little did he know that everything about him had already been clearly seen by An Shao in the tree, who issued an early warning as soon as he left the woods.
Sima Wushuang slowly lay on the ground and crawled forward. The distance of thirty feet was enough for him to crawl for a while.
Not long after he left, an early warning was issued on the shore in the woods. Everyone on the steep slope immediately froze when they heard the chirping of birds.
Ma Biao carefully stuck his head out, observed for a long time, and couldn't help laughing.
He said in a strong voice, "Brother Xiaobei, look at that kid coming over lying on his stomach. He thinks we can't see him this way."
Chen Xiaobei squinted for a long time and finally vaguely saw a black shadow moving this way on the ground.
Don't accept it, Ma Biao and the others are indeed better at night vision than him.
But Chen Xiaobei also began to worry. If he walked forward on his stomach like this, the effectiveness of the landmines might be compromised.
But now I have no choice but to secretly pray that I can blow this kid up harder.
