With a creak~, the woman pushed open the door of the house: "All gentlemen and heroes, please come in. Please sit in the hall first. I will give you some tea, wine and snacks to wash away the dust."
Led by a servant, everyone arrived in the lobby. Xie Wule found a seat separate from everyone and sat down.
The mansion is very big, and it takes some time to walk from the front door to the front hall. At night, the mansion is still very bright, with a kind of autofluorescent stone installed on the alleys, not to mention the hall.
Xie Wule looked around, his doubts not diminished. Xie Wule came here for the first time. Although he didn't understand it, he could clearly see that the woman was definitely wealthy, but he still couldn't figure out why she entertained him.
There should be something in her that she wants.
While Xie Wule was thinking, the man who came with him sat down next to Xie Wule: "What kind of brother? Do you think that woman will not entertain you for no reason?"
This man has a stubble on his face and a rough and tough appearance. He should be a rough guy, but there is a scholarly heroic spirit between his eyebrows that conflicts with his appearance. Although he was talking to Xie Wule at this moment, his eyes were looking at the other people in the hall, not Xie Wule.
Xie Wule glanced at the man and wondered what the man was planning. It was better for him to be careful, so he ignored the man.
The man saw Xie Wule's aloof expression, but he didn't care: "I almost forgot, my name is Zuo Yi, what do you call me brother?"
"My lord, Xie Wule." Xie Wule replied calmly. The man has been staying by her side, and it seems that she can't get rid of him easily. She just hopes that he can leave on his own.
At this moment, the woman from before came in with tea and wine, followed by several maids carrying various snacks.
The woman put down the tea and wine and smiled at everyone: "Dear gentlemen, the tea, wine and snacks have arrived, so I won't disturb you. You can do as you please. If you want to rest after a while, please tell the maids outside the door, and they will take care of you. You go to your room."
After saying that, the woman left.
When Zuo Yi saw the tea and wine coming, he also left Xie Wule's side. Xie Wule just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zuo Yi coming over with two glasses of wine.
"Come on, brother Xie." Zuo Yi handed one of the cups to Xie Wule.
Xie Wule took it, looked at the wine reflected in the glass, and frowned slightly.
"Hahahaha, Brother Xie is really cautious, are you afraid that it is poisonous?" Zuo Yi saw Xie Wule's vigilant look, laughed, and then drank all the wine in his glass: "Brother Xie, you can rest assured! Then entertain us The woman is the eldest lady of the Yang family. She is beautiful and kind-hearted, and her reputation is very good in these six places. She often takes in people like us who have no place to live, and will not poison us. If she does this, it can only mean that she If you are too short-sighted, you are too stupid.”
"Brother Xie, you can drink with confidence. Don't you think they're fine?" Zuo Yi pointed to a few big men on the other side and said.
Xie Wule saw that they were all drinking happily, and he hadn't had anything in his mouth for a long time. He glanced at the wine in the glass. Just now, he had been watching Zuo Yi the whole time, and he really had no chance to play tricks, so he drank it all in one gulp.
"Brother Xie, those snacks over there were made by Miss Yang herself. It would be a pity not to try them. Shall we go there?" Zuo Yi took Xie Wule's hand and said.
Xie Wule nodded. Since everyone was eating, it would be okay if he ate some. He nodded in agreement and the two of them went over.
The snacks were indeed good. Xie Wule ate a lot of them, which relieved his hunger. Xie Wule felt a lot more energetic.
"Thank you, brother, come on, let's have another drink." A man waved to Xie Wule.
"I'm coming right now! Brother Chen." Xie Wule walked away with a wine glass in one hand and a wine flask in the other.
After a few glasses of wine, everyone was no longer so restrained and began to hug each other and call each other brothers.
"Thank you, brother. When you first came here, I saw that you were being cautious. You sat aside without saying a word, and we didn't dare to disturb you."
"That's right, your indifferent expression is really cold and silent. If Brother Zuo hadn't called you here, no one would have known you were so generous."
Xie Wule smiled awkwardly: "Brother, please stop laughing at me. I just came to this Luanshan City and I have never heard of Miss Yang's reputation."
"Ah, Brother Xie, that's right. There's nothing wrong with being cautious when going out alone!"
"Hahaha, thank you Brother Lin for speaking up for me." Xie Wule said with a smile.
The man surnamed Lin suddenly had a serious face: "Who spoke for you? There is still more to say. But when you go out, you need friends! How can someone like Brother Xie make friends?"
"Brother Lin is teaching you a lesson! Brother, I will punish myself with three drinks!" Xie Wule picked up the wine bottle and drank three glasses of wine in one go.
"Thank you, brother! Brother Zuo is also leaving!"
Zuo Yi rolled up his sleeves, stood up and picked up the wine glass: "This is a must!"
After changing glasses, everyone smelled of alcohol.
"Brothers, I'm going to rest first." Zuo Yi greeted everyone and walked out.
"I'm going to rest too, please forgive me, brothers." Xie Wule also followed.
Under the leadership of the maid, Xie Wule came to a room.
The light in the room is not as bright as the lobby just now, but it is just dark enough to make people feel sleepy as soon as they enter the room.
Xie Wule put his luggage on the table beside him, staggered to the bedside, and fell on the bed. The bed was very soft and comfortable, swallowing Xie Wule directly, and the lights in the room dimmed.
It was a long time after Xie Wule fell asleep. There was an inaudible click sound, and a thin tube grew out of the four corners of the house at the same time. Immediately, mist sprayed out from the thin tube, quickly occupying the space in the house.
Within a moment, Xie Wule's door was opened. Several iron needles flew towards the soft bed.
At this time, a man crossed the threshold and walked into Xie Wule's house.
"Don't make any noise, come in naturally and close the door, or I'll kill you right away!"
As soon as the man entered the house, a long sword appeared on his neck. The man immediately walked into the house as Xie Wule said.
The lights in the room come on.
The person who was held up was the man named Lin just now.
Xie Wule took away the weapons and hidden weapons from the man surnamed Lin, and tied him to a chair with a sheet behind his back.
The man surnamed Lin had a dark face and looked at Xie Wule across from him: "Aren't you drunk? And you just released poisonous gas. How can you be okay?"
Xie Wule ignored the man and walked around the house to check if there were any other traps.
After observing for a week and confirming that everything was correct, he sat back across from the man and asked in a cold voice: "Why would you do such a thing?"
The man looked at Xie Wule and smiled disdainfully: "What can you do? Of course it's for survival."
"Can't you live if you don't do this?" Xie Wule felt that the man was being sophistical and said sternly.
"Ha! Which young master are you from? You don't even understand the law of the jungle? If you are not ruthless here, you don't even have the capital to survive!" the man mocked.
"Brother Xie, there's no need to talk nonsense with him." Zuo Yi's voice sounded outside the door, and the next moment Zuo Yi pushed the door open and entered.
The man glanced at Zuo Yi and gritted his teeth: "Tch, did it fail over there too?"
"Thank you, Brother Zuo, otherwise I would not be able to escape today." Xie Wule thanked Zuo Yiyi.
Zuo Yi waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, with Brother Xie's caution nothing will happen. Instead, I should thank Brother Xie. Only with Brother Xie's help can I reduce so much pressure."
"How is your mission?" Xie Wule asked.
Zuo Yi shook his head: "They are more cunning than I thought. The woman has already escaped."
Zuo Yiyi turned around and saw the man surnamed Lin. He grabbed the bench he was tied to and threw him into the courtyard. His voice was cold: "If you tell me where the others have fled, I will let you go. Otherwise, I will let you go." They are what will happen to you.”
Xie Wule looked into the distance and saw the man surnamed Lin fell to the ground. In the open space in front of him were many corpses with ugly dead looks.
The man surnamed Lin looked pale, but still did not speak. Zuo jumped up to him, took out a knife in his hand, and lightly slashed his face.
The man screamed, a piece of flesh was missing from his face, and his expression was extremely painful.
"You still don't want to say anything?" Zuo Yi was slightly dissatisfied and moved the knife to the ear of the man named Lin. There was another scream, and one ear fell to the ground.
Zuo Yi did not stop this time and slashed at the man one after another.
Finally, the man was overwhelmed and gave in: "I said, I said! There are a few thatched houses in the woods to the north outside the city. The money we robbed is stored in them. Where should they go."
Zuo Yi nodded with satisfaction, stood up, and looked at Xie Wule: "Brother Xie, I'm going to chase those who escaped. If you have nowhere to go, you can go to the gang I'm in if you're interested. You just need to go to the city gate." Say my name to the second vendor on the left in front and he will recommend it to you."
"Then I'll take the first step."
After saying that, he took a few leaps to the left and left.
"Didn't you say you wanted to let me go?" The man named Lin said in an extremely weak voice.
Although these people are thieves who harm people's lives and deserve to die, Xie Wule is still surprised by Zuo Yi's methods when he looks at the miserable state of the man named Lin who is still twitching on the ground.
At this time, I also understood what the man surnamed Lin had just said, that he wouldn't even have the capital to survive without being ruthless. If you have no ill intentions towards others, others may not necessarily have good intentions towards you!
Xie Wule walked up to the man named Lin, and with a look of hope on his face, he ended his life with a sword.
.
"What do you call this brother?"
"My lord, Xie Wule."
"Brother Xie is from out of town, right?" Zuo Yi glanced at the men on the other side and whispered in Xie Wule's ear.
Xie Wule ignored it.
"It seems I'm right." Zuo Yiyi smiled and continued: "Look, those people who came with us are actually in the same group with that woman. They acted like this just to dispel the suspicion. Be wary of people like you.”
"Then after you fall asleep, they can easily kill people and steal goods. And I am from the Longhu Gang, and my mission is to defeat these thieves."
"Why don't you believe it?" Zuo Yi saw that Xie Wule was unmoved by what he said.
At this time, the woman came in with drinks.
Zuo Yi glanced at Xie Wule and said, "Have you seen that jug? There is a mechanism in it, with water on the left and wine on the right. Even if I don't come to chat with you, they will find an excuse to ask you to drink after a while. If you Without knowing this, you get drunker and drunker, and eventually you fall into their hands and are slaughtered."
"Wait for me here for a while, and I'll demonstrate it to you."
Zuo Yi left Xie Wule's side and came back with two wine glasses after a while, handing one to Xie Wule: "Look, this is the wine poured from the left side of the jug."
Xie Wule stared at the cup for a while, then smelled it to confirm that it was indeed water, and looked to the left: "Why are you telling me this?"
Zuo Yiyi smiled: "I want Brother Xie to help me distract myself, otherwise I would be unable to defeat four hands with just two fists."
"By the way, these are antidote pills. Keep them. They will release poison gas in the house. Just take them."
Zuo Yi took advantage of La Xie Wule to get up and handed Xie Wule the detoxification pill hidden in his hand.
the other side.
"Brother Chen, what are those two boys talking about over there? We won't have been exposed, right?"
Chen Xingman whispered: "Stop talking, they are coming."
Zuo Yi held a wine glass in one hand and held Xie Wule in the other: "Brothers, this brother is from out of town, so he is a little cautious. Please don't be surprised."
"Brother Zuo, what are you talking about? As the saying goes, we are all brothers from all over the world, how can I be surprised? Besides, it is always better to be cautious." The man surnamed Chen said, while looking at others: "Is that what I said, brothers? "
"That's right, that's right..."
