Jiang Yue sat by the window, her eyebrows lowered, her white knuckles tapping the window sill, "Tell me, is there anyone in those houses in the backyard?"
Jiang Nian walked over. The door of the largest room was ajar, and a pair of eyes stared at them from the darkness.
"There's someone, but I can't tell."
She was surprised and turned back to look at him, "You can't even explain?"
He frowned, "The smell of blood here is not light. Including that guy, I smelled the breath of at least three strangers and countless other smells."
"But this is an inn, maybe it's the smell left by the previous guests. That's why I said I can't tell exactly how many people are in this inn now."
After saying this, Jiang Yue wanted to burn some yellow paper.
"Why are we left here? To eat meat? But he looks very normal and looks at us very normally."
If you eat human flesh for a long time, your facial features will change, like people in a small town, puffy and swollen. And there will be a rotten smell on the body.
Today, this guy has no characteristics at all. Apart from living a better life than those affected by the disaster, he looks just like ordinary people. The way they look at them is that they want to grab money and food, not outright "greedy".
Jiang Nian checked the furnishings in the room and found no smell of blood.
"Shall we take a break?"
It was estimated that it would take about two days for the mule to recover from its injuries. Before then, they would not be able to leave. The time in space cannot be wasted casually, it must be saved to save lives.
"sleep!"
Jiang Yue spread the mat, took off her coat, and pulled him to lie down and sleep.
In the backyard room, the waiter slammed the rag in his hand, "Damn! You are treating me like a monkey!"
Lao Wu was lying on the bed, with no food in his stomach and feeling sleepy, "Aren't all these rich young ladies like this?"
"They will be cooked sooner or later!"
The big black man leaning quietly in the corner reminded, "We have to send people over, but we can't kill anyone."
The guy spat on the ground, "Then I have to squeeze them all out too!"
The big black man spoke again, "Every rich man brings his servants with him. I just saw these two people going on the road alone. They are not in a carriage, have no luggage, and are carrying a bamboo basket. Their linen clothes are in tatters. Are you sure?" Can something really be squeezed out of them?"
"Don't waste your efforts on beggars like before."
They worked hard to bring the whole family in a few days ago, and entertained them with good food and drinks. Not only did they waste food, but they also served them like dogs.
It turned out that these damn people were just dishonest people, they were just beggars who stole clothes and shoes from rich people, and even paid for their rooms on credit, just relying on their mouths to deceive people.
The most annoying thing is that they worked so hard to send people up, but they said they didn't want it!
They lost all dignity and brutally buried the whole family alive.
The waiter's face became even more gloomy when he saw that the big black guy didn't open the pot.
"Today they gave the mules steamed buns and cakes to eat, and they also fed them a can of water! Only half a bowl of water came out of our well in one day! Don't rich people dare to do this?"
Lao Wu swallowed, the steamed buns, damn, so luxurious! I haven’t eaten soft and fragrant steamed buns in months.
The big black man's lips were chapped. He licked the blood on them and moistened his throat. "Then let's take action as soon as possible."
"They don't want to eat or drink now. Let's see how long they can survive!" The man's eyes were vicious.
Until nightfall, except for the man who went downstairs to feed the mule once, the two of them stayed out of the house and refused to order anything to eat or drink!
Could it be that there really was a lot of food in the backpack? He said there was no food, but where did he take out a bag of beans to feed the mules and play tricks on them? !
The waiters waited for a whole day, and their anger reached the top of their heads. Seeing that the man was not easy to mess with, they originally wanted to use some sweat medicine, which would save them trouble and avoid the bloodshed and the disgust from the superiors.
Since they won't give you a chance, let's just break through!
The three of them were about to go upstairs when someone came up from the outside.
Someone knocked on the door and asked in a trembling voice, "Is there anyone inside?"
The few of them looked at each other, and Lao Wu and the big black man went back to the back room first.
The guy went over to open the door and said with a smile, "Yes."
There was also a young couple outside the door. They were about seventeen or eighteen years old, with immature faces and little experience in the world. Watching people coming out of the dark shop, I felt my heart pounding.
"Shopkeeper, we want to stay in the hotel."
The waiter smiled warmly and said, "Now we also have a room, which is 10 pancakes a night."
Such a friendly attitude made the two of them put down their guard.
"We don't have food, can we give you some money?"
The man was a little disappointed, but it was best to have food. Except for copper plates, which were not needed, gold and silver were fine if there was no food.
"Okay, 10 taels of silver per night."
The young couple was relieved and took out 10 taels of silver from their money bag.
The night concealed their greedy expressions, and they followed the man upstairs unconsciously.
There are no guest rooms on the first floor, and the creaking sound of the wooden floor ends in the first room on the second floor.
Jiang Yue and the others opened their eyes and sat up. Are you starting to take action?
She took out the steamed buns, one for each person, and slept for most of the day, so she had to cushion her stomach.
She sat at the window, looking through the gap, and said in a low voice, "Two men, one tall and one short, came up with knives."
There was an extra carriage in the yard, and there were three noises coming upstairs, indicating that two new guests had arrived.
Jiang Nian sat by the door, chewing the steamed buns quietly, the tips of his ears twitching slightly.
The footsteps of the two men were heavier and they also disappeared into the first room.
Half an hour later, several people went downstairs.
No smell of blood.
Jiang Yue: "Three people, they went back to the back room and got money and a bag of beans."
Are they thinking too much, are they really just robbing money and food?
Then why bother to entertain them? Just treat them like new guests, why not just do it?
