"Guest, if you feel it's dangerous outside, I can arrange another room for you...at the normal room rate."
There was obviously a trace of anxiety on the wine master's face, but he could still maintain a smile when facing customers who were willing to pay.
"Sorry, I need to go out and check the situation. Why don't you rest here for a while until it's safe."
Maybe this is the real businessman... Chen Changan sighed twice. Facing Master Jiu's kindness, he would not remain indifferent. He handed over his hand and said:
"Master Jiu, I will escort you for a while, but I have to make a deal first..."
Chen Changan thought about it for a moment and said word by word:
"When you encounter a strong enemy, seek blessings for yourself."
The wine master raised his eyelids, feeling a little more experienced, but the continuous screams outside left him little time to think, and said in a deep voice:
"Protect me for ten minutes, fifty Innars, this is the deposit."
Chen Changan took the bag of money that originally belonged to him and said with a smile:
"make a deal."
The wine master nodded and immediately rushed out of the study.
Chen Changan followed closely behind.
Chen Changan had another reason for requesting to escort Mr. Jiu.
The study room was a small environment. Once the pirates broke into the bar, he would have no room to move and dodge.
If the tree is moved, it will die, but if the person is moved, it will live!
Chen Changan certainly understands this truth.
Even if Mr. Jiu lets him stay at ease, he can't wait for the battle outside to end. His fate must be in his own hands!
After walking through the narrow corridor, the wine master rushed to the bar of the pub.
"Master Liquor~" X4
"Mr. Right and wrong~" X2
Waterweed and Narcissus were guarding the bar of the tavern. When they saw Chen Changan coming out, they were surprised and called him by the pseudonym they had just made up.
In addition, there were four dancers hiding at the bar. They were relieved to see the wine master return.
The door to the bar had long been closed, and four or five tables and chairs were piled up behind the door.
Five drinkers stayed voluntarily, confessing that they wanted to protect the beauty.
Chen Changan heard Master Jiu snort slightly, but the next second, he put on a warm smile and said:
"Ah, ah, you are my five tiger generals..."
The wine master blew a rainbow fart for a full three minutes, which immediately made several drinkers extremely happy.
But Chen Changan saw the essence of Mr. Jiu's compliment at a glance.
Whoring for free!
Mr. Jiu successfully obtained five cannon fodder without spending any money.
The tallest man among them exposed his upper body, and a long scar extended from his left shoulder to his heart, causing a cry of exclamation, and he said arrogantly:
"I am a man who has fought with pirates with real swords and guns!"
The other four drinkers also showed off their past achievements, like roosters showing off their bright feathers to the opposite sex.
"These pirates are nothing more than local chickens and dogs. If they dare to break into the tavern, I will turn them into God-given materials with one strike!"
"When I was extremely angry, I knocked down all five pirates with one punch, one kick, one whip. After that, I ran thirty miles to exercise."
"Actually, it's best to deal with a pirate. If he's taller than me, then when he pounces, I can just use my strength and be thrown away, causing him to twist his head on the ground until his neck is knocked unconscious."
A thin man saw the others' outstanding achievements and said flatly:
"I've killed people."
Suddenly, the atmosphere fell into a long silence, and the other four people all moved their buttocks in unison, slightly away from the range of the thin man.
Narcissus chuckled and shouted sweetly to the five men:
"We weak women can only rely on you heroes to protect us."
The water plants also timidly clapped their hands and shouted with all their strength:
"come on!"
Several dancers also cheered for them, which made the fighting spirit of several drinkers flourish again, and they began to exchange business blows.
Chen Changan was not interested in listening to their boasts and leaned on the edge of the bar, enjoying himself.
Shui Cao pursed her lips, walked carefully to Chen Changan, raised her fist, stuck out her tongue and said:
"Mr. Cheng, you have to work hard too."
Chen Changan blinked at her and shared a little secret in a low voice:
"Actually, I have received money from your boss."
Shui Cao looked at Chen Changan in surprise, then turned his playful eyes to the drinker and chuckled.
After about five or six minutes, the sounds of killing outside gradually subsided, and a drinker asked tentatively:
"Did Lord Warship drive away the pirates?"
The scarred man seemed to know some information about pirates and frowned:
"Master Warship shouldn't be so fast."
The drinkers were discussing in low voices. Chen Changan shrugged his nose and suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood. He always had a bad feeling.
At this moment, a rough roar sounded outside the door:
"People inside, listen, open the door for grandpa!"
pirate!
Several drinkers were silent and silent. The scarred man realized that he was weak, so he had no choice but to stand at the door and cursed sternly:
"Let your mother sell batches! If you dare to come in, if grandpa doesn't beat you up and make your face bloom, you won't know why the flowers are so red!"
The pirate outside the door kicked hard at the door. Fortunately, there were enough tables and chairs piled up, so the pirate's kick did not kick the door open.
When the other drinkers saw that the pirates were not as scary as they thought, they all started yelling and taunting them, and their voices were very loud.
"There are more than a dozen of us here. If you don't want to die, get out!"
"Lord Warship is coming soon, why don't you hurry up and get out!"
"We have several extraordinary beings here. You are seeking death if you come in!"
Suddenly, there was gradually no sound outside the door.
The scarred man hesitated and said:
"Scared away by us?"
The drinkers whispered:
"perhaps?"
"Maybe because there are so many of us, we don't dare to break in."
The wine master frowned and whispered:
"a bunch of idiots!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a rush of running sound came from a distance, from far to near.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
One step, two steps, like a devil's pace!
Boom!
The door made a loud noise, the tables and chairs piled behind the door were knocked open, and a big hole was opened in the door.
Everyone held their breath for a moment and cast fearful eyes on the big hole.
A fleshy pirate with a rat tail was breathing heavily outside the door.
He was breathing heavily, and every sound seemed to grab the hearts of everyone in the tavern.
The Hengrou pirate stuck his head into the big hole in the door and said with a ferocious smile:
"I'm going to use your skulls as bowls!"

Note 1: The word "come on" with the meaning of "work harder" has already appeared in "Anecdotes of Emperor Wuzong" of the Ming Dynasty. After the May Fourth Movement of the Republic of China, the word "come on" was widely promoted.
Note 2: The earliest account of applause is in "Han Feizi: Fame", "One person claps alone, although there is no sound".
Although these two words are very modern, they are not words unique to modern times.
