Along the way to the north, the first half is full of high mountains. Most inns are built in the mountains. Travelers are used to staying in the mountains, so mountain inns like this are common. They are not "old and small", nor do they look like a black shop.
To say "black", it is true that there are robbers in the mountains. They don't rob inns, but usually block the road.
However, if they encounter knights from the Jianghu, they may also be destroyed.
Therefore, before they take action, they will definitely send spies to find out the true identity of the passers-by.
The inn where we stayed received two guests who were robbed.
When they came back from Yuanwei Mountain in front of them, all their business capital was robbed, leaving only a small amount of money hidden in the insoles of their shoes, which was enough for them to live in the cowshed in the backyard.
The innkeeper was a woman in her thirties. She said what she said to everyone and was a bit mean to these two people, but she took them in anyway. They only had money for hotel accommodation and no money for food, and heavy rain blocked the road. , not knowing when to leave, the landlady gave them the leftovers from other customers.
We had too much money on us, so I folded it all into silver notes and carried it close to my body, wrapping it in a special waterproof and fireproof leather bag. As long as I didn't die, no one could take it away.
Manager Zhang was thoughtful. In addition to banknotes, he also prepared some inconspicuous travel expenses before escaping.
They were all small pieces of silver and small copper coins, divided into portions, wrapped up and placed on each person.
He took a few copies, Yue Nanxiang took a few copies, and even Yun Zhou had a broken silver bag on him.
He handled all the hotel affairs. When the landlady saw him scratching his head, she had no doubt about our identity.
For this reason, our meals were the most ordinary simple meals. The landlady was very cold towards our family of four, and would call the waiter if anything happened.
The treatment of the guests upstairs is completely different from ours. They live in the best rooms and eat the best meals. Even if no one calls, the landlady has to run upstairs eight times a day. Her charming face and smile are still there. It's so charming.
I didn't want to pay attention to her, but when I was practicing in the house, I could always hear her flattering shouts.
She calls out to the people upstairs eight times a day.
The inn has three floors. Our cabin was on the second floor. The house was not very soundproof, so we could hear people walking upstairs.
Especially since I have good ears, I can hear their conversations.
Very passively... I got to know all the guests in the inn.
If I were still a secret guard, I would have taken the initiative to know all the information about the personnel in the store.
It seems that he is not in his position, but he is indeed seeking his own government.
For days, the only sound of rain could be heard, which made the guests in the inn feel irritable.
Fortunately for me, listening to this voice makes me feel calm, which is good for practicing martial arts.
Yunzhou is very sensible. If he can buy snacks, he will eat them. If he doesn't, he won't eat them and won't make any noise.
Manager Zhang spent a small amount of money to go to the kitchen and fry pocket soybeans for him personally, and mixed them with salt noodles for snacks.
But you can't eat too much of this food. If you eat too much, we won't be able to live in this house.
Manager Zhang gives him a handful every day, and he eats one at a time and eats sparingly.
The peaceful hotel life was broken by a woman.
On the third day of our stay, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the inn in the middle of the night.
The waiter got up to open the door, fearing to wake up other guests, he trotted to open the door without daring to speak loudly.
There was a female guest outside the door, saying she wanted to stay in the hotel. It had been raining heavily outside for the past three days, and it was impossible to walk back and forth. The mountain roads were full of water and slippery mud. No one would climb the mountain in such weather. , take the winding mountain path.
There are no guardrails on the roadside. If a strong wind blows, people may be blown off the cliff.
In fact, no matter how difficult it is to build a mountain road, over time, a road can always be built for the cavalry to walk. The reason why the road condition here is so bad is not entirely due to natural conditions, but also the intervention of the northern dynasty.
Such natural dangers are more effective than city wall traps, which is why the north has never had a war with the other three countries.
A frail woman went over the mountain to stay in a hotel on a rainy night.
Xiaoerken
You have to be careful, and he was telling the truth. He told the woman that the store was full, and even the cowshed was occupied, so there was no room left.
The woman begged sadly, saying that she didn't need to live in a room, as long as she had a place to take shelter from the rain. Even if she sat in the hall all night, it was better than being poured outside.
The woman raised her voice. The waiter was afraid that her loud shouting would disturb the guests' rest, so he took her to the kitchen. There was a large table in the kitchen, which was covered with leather and matted with hay. The woman could lie down even if she curled up.
If the waiter could be ruthless, he should refuse the woman entry, or he should be more cautious and report to the boss immediately after letting the woman in, so that the woman would not have the chance to look around and quietly approach the VIP room on the third floor.
After the woman appeared, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared on the roof. They fell to the ground with the sound of rain and squatted on the roof.
The woman downstairs tiptoed to the door of the VIP room on the third floor.
Since I came to this world, I have spent more time practicing my powers than practicing martial arts.
It's always easier to use my original abilities.
So now I no longer need to use my eyes to see those "energy masses", I can feel them even if I close my eyes.
I can feel them moving and still.
As soon as the woman entered the door, I locked onto her energy group and moved with her.
She sat in the kitchen with a stick of incense and waited for the waiter to go back to the house to go to bed before sneaking out.
But she just stood on the third floor for a while, no more than ten minutes.
Then she returned to the kitchen, lay down to sleep, and never got up again.
Early the next morning, the landlady learned that someone had slept in the kitchen and scolded the waiter.
The woman used money to calm down her anger. Now that our big brother is not here, I have to find out some things myself.
The people on the roof didn't leave. I wanted to know what their purpose was, so I took the opportunity of going downstairs to buy food and briefly interacted with the woman.
Just looking at the life energy, one cannot see the beauty or ugliness of a person. When I really see a woman, even my breath suffocates.
No wonder the men in the inn have been restless since morning, and their life energy seems to be on fire.
The woman's appearance is not beautiful in the traditional sense, but she is infinitely charming and makes people breathless just by looking at her.
I passed her by carrying the multi-grain porridge and pickles for four people. I didn't intend to talk to her, but she took the initiative to stop me and gave me a shallow smile. This smile can make people's souls fly away.
"Sister, can this sister do me a favor?"
I personally believe that there are no natural "vixens" in the world, and those who practice the art of bewitching are hard-working people.
I paused for two seconds, thinking about the reaction that an ordinary peasant woman should have, and tried to make an honest smile, but unfortunately I failed.
"Say." The smile failed, I broke the pot and just acted like I usually do.
"My little sister is suffering from a strange disease. She has seen many doctors, but the disease is getting worse and worse. Can sister cure me?"
"No, I only know how to care for sows after delivery." I glanced at her from head to toe.
"Sister is really good at joking. As long as I can cure my disease, you can pay whatever you want for the consultation."
"It can't be cured." I carried the food and continued walking upstairs. The woman behind me smiled sweetly, shook her fragrant silk handkerchief, and turned to go to the kitchen.
I wanted to see her and check out her physical condition. Seeing her martial arts skills, I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to talk to me.
She seemed to know who I was. My name as "Miracle Doctor" resounded like thunder in Yuancheng. Some people knew me, but I didn't know them.
I brought the meal back to the room. For the past three days, the person who went to buy food in the morning had been Manager Zhang. He was wondering why I had to go downstairs to buy food today.
I quietly explained to him that someone with a suspicious identity had come to the inn and I wanted to take a look.
"Did you find anything?" He waited for me to enter the door, then reached out to take the tray in my hand.
Yue Nanxiang closed the door, and the four of us sat down at the dining table. I felt it and made sure there was no one around before I answered:
"The one who reaches for the stars and the moon tower."
boss Zhang
Guan is well-informed in Qunfang Pavilion, so he should be no stranger to this organization.
The Star Reaching Tower is a killer organization in the world that also helps people steal things, kidnap people, and find people and their belongings.
Other murderers disguise themselves as various characters to perform tasks. The killers they organize do not have this need, because they have an eighty-year-old old lady killer and an eight-year-old child/killer.
The disabled/killer, the pregnant woman with a big belly/killer, they are all real, no makeup is needed to pretend.
In any assassin organization, the boss must have some means of controlling his subordinates.
The boss of Star Reaching Moon Tower is different from others. He doesn't use poison or poison, and he doesn't use the killer's weakness to manipulate them. His control method is to implant a small metal block in the killer's body.
Strictly speaking, this thing should be a meteorite with an unknown metal in its composition.
After it is implanted into the human body, it usually has no effect, but once the boss uses the mother stone in his hand, these small stones implanted in the human body will cause trouble in their bodies.
People who have experienced it say that life is worse than death.
I saw something that looked like a stone inside a woman's body. It could move on its own and the woman didn't feel it at all, so I was sure it wasn't a stone.
She wanted me to treat her, probably because she wanted to remove the stone.
It's not difficult to get it, but I will offend another difficult organization in the world.
I don’t want to be hunted 360 days a year, and for the remaining five days they are on the road to hunt me.
According to the current situation, we cannot go directly to the northern countryside to buy land. Once the enemies know my specific location and it is a fixed location, they will go there day and night to cause trouble.
So I said no to women, this is not a problem that money can solve.
If the woman's stone removal operation is successful, what should I do if other killers come to me?
I used Zhai Xing Lao Yue Lou to treat pornography. Can the boss let me go?
I told Yunzhou and the others to eat quickly. What can the killer organization do?
They ran to the inn in the mountains regardless of the dangerous road on a heavy rainy day. Their mission target must be staying here.
They might take action at some point. We have enough to eat and drink, and when they start fighting, we can go out for safety at any time.
Guests in the VIP room usually get up late. Suddenly, at nine o'clock, someone shouted, "He's dead." The voice came from the VIP room.
The landlady rushed up to check the situation immediately, and the waiter was responsible for calming down the guests from other rooms who came out to watch the excitement.
The four of us didn't go out. I stayed by the window. This room was small, and the window was only half a window. It was originally a storage room. The bed that Manager Zhang and Yue Nanxiang slept on was a broken bed that had been replaced from another room. The four of us didn't go out. Two of the bed legs were broken, so we used stones to cushion them.
There were a lot of debris piled up in the room, including broken bowls, pots, old candlesticks and the like.
I asked Yunzhou and the others to take a break. I stood in front of the window, opened it, and listened to what was going on outside while paying attention to the situation inside the building.
If a massacre really happens, we can escape immediately.
There was a death in the inn, so how could the residents stay quietly? It was a relatively closed building, and there had been no new guests in the past three days, except for the woman who suddenly appeared in the middle of the night last night.
The residents naturally suspected her, but the distinguished guest on the third floor died in the room, and someone lived in the same room as the deceased. It is strange that a woman committed the murder and the people in the room did not notice it.
The guest rooms in the hotel are already tense. Even in the VIP rooms, two people squeeze into one bed. If the person sharing the bed is killed, the other person will not be awakened unless the murderer makes no sound at all.
The landlady shouted, "Stop guessing." The case can be solved by guessing, so why do we need an arrest?
They suspected the woman who stayed last night, but there was no witness or physical evidence. The deceased was neither strangled nor killed with a knife. Her body was covered with red spots and she was suspected of being poisoned.
Other guests asked to be searched so that they could feel at ease if there was no poison on the woman.
It was not impossible for the landlady to search her body, but the woman refused. She said that if she agreed to the search, wouldn't she be being bullied?
There are so many people living in the inn, people
Anyone could be the murderer, so why only search her body?
If they want to search, everyone must be searched before she agrees to search her.
The landlady asked the waiter to knock on the door from room to room to see if all the guests were there.
If anyone isn't there, it could be the escaped murderer.
There was actually no need for the waiter to knock on the door. There was so much noise outside that almost all the guests staying in the hotel stood at the door to watch the excitement.
There were only three guest rooms with their doors closed, including ours.
I gestured to Manager Zhang and the others, and he and Yue Nanxiang put the luggage they had carried on their backs back into place.
At this time, if someone saw the four of us carrying our luggage and looking like we were ready to run away at any moment, we would probably become the biggest suspects.
Before the waiter knocked on the door, Manager Zhang took the initiative to open the door and looked out with an inquiring look on his face.
The waiter happened to be walking over here, and Manager Zhang asked him what happened first.
The waiter explained that a customer died in the store, seemingly from poisoning. The landlady was worried about the safety of the customers and asked him to confirm whether the customers were okay.
Manager Zhang pretended to be scared and asked who died, when he died, and what he had eaten or drank before his death.
The waiter comforted him with a few words, walked to the door of our room, peeked inside, and saw the three of us sitting in the room. He looked away and smiled at Manager Zhang: "Don't worry, sir, your meals will be there." It will be done separately from the guests in the room upstairs, so there will be no problem with food and drink.”
This is for sure, the four of us have a simple meal, and the residents upstairs have fish and meat every day, and the recipes do not overlap.
