"Shopkeeper, open the door!" There was a knock on the door outside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The shopkeeper walked over and opened the door, only to see a few people in the rivers and lakes wearing cloaks, short clothes, and swords at their waists breaking in.

Those people saw Zhao Renjie and Ying'er sitting next to them drinking, walked over, and shouted, "Get out of the way, this position is ours." ”

Ying'er stood up, and Zhao Renjie glanced at him and motioned for him to sit down.

"Old thing, get out of here." One of the middle-aged men with a meaty face came to Zhao Renjie's side, stepped on the stool, and shouted with a fierce look.

"There should always be a first-come-first-served one! Why should I give up my place to you? Zhao Renjie looked at the middle-aged man and asked.

"Ah San, forget it, you can eat as long as you sit." An old man in his sixties stopped.

Zhao Renjie looked at the old man, who was emaciated, with clear bones, a short beard, thick eyebrows, and small and energetic eyes. "Sir, it's not peaceful here tonight." Ying'er whispered.

"Since you're here, Longtan Tiger's Den is also going to break in, don't act rashly, let's see the situation first." Zhao Renjie advised.

"Sir, I see that this shopkeeper's thief eyebrows and rat eyes are not good, we must be careful to put it away." Ying'er whispered.

"This is natural, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, not to mention that we have never seen these people before, and we don't know their details." Zhao Renjie also feels the same way.

The men sat at the table against the wall, and everyone's eyes looked mysterious. Zhao Renjie glanced at it, and he was sincerely afraid.

"Sir, you see that these people have been watching us, could they be killers?" Ying'er asked in a low voice.

"Don't be afraid, the soldiers will block the water and come to Tutun, I have my own way to deal with it." Zhao Renjie whispered comfort.

"Shopkeeper, where did he die? We've been sitting for so long without even saying hello, don't we want to do business? A cloaked, fifty-year-old Scarface roared.

"Coming, coming, guest officer, what are your orders?" The shopkeeper hurriedly walked over and forced a smile.

"A plate of large slices of beef, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of fried chicken feet, and a pot of apricot blossom village." Scarface commanded.

"Okay, guest officer, please wait." The shopkeeper sang the recipe and went to the counter, glancing at Scarface.

Zhao Renjie saw the scarface's fierce appearance, and wondered in his heart: "What are these people doing?" Why come to Qingshui? Are they related to homicides? ”

"Boss Liu, has business been good lately?" A gorgeously dressed and graceful boy walked in with a few attendants.

"Yo, Huo Gongzi is here, puffy and shining, please sit down. Little two, watch the tea! As soon as the shopkeeper saw the arrival, he hurriedly walked over and greeted him with a smile and greeted him affectionately.

"Who is this son? Why did the shopkeeper compliment him so much? Did they know each other before? Zhao Renjie was worried in his heart.

"Shopkeeper, it's been mixing well lately!" An old swordsman wearing a black cloak and a black cloak and carrying a sword at his waist walked in to greet him. Although Ying'er can't see the face clearly, she can guess eight or nine points by listening to the voice, this person is at least over the age of six, and his internal strength is profound.

"TOEFL TOEFL, I don't know where Brother Ouyang has made a fortune recently?" The big shopkeeper put down the work in his hand and came over to say hello.

"It seems that this inn is lively again tonight, what are these people doing at the inn? Are you coming for me? Who is Ouyang Daxia? Is it Ouyang Jiashen? If so, why should the shopkeeper hide it? Ying'er, these people are of unknown origin, I don't know what is going to happen tonight, you have to be careful. Zhao Renjie advised.

"Hey, what are you two talking about?" Scarface asked.

"I didn't say anything, we just said that the shopkeeper was procrastinating and couldn't do anything." Zhao Renjie said.

"Boss, what? We've been here for a long time, and we don't come to say hello, so we don't know how to do business! The customer is God, is that how you treat God? Scarface shouted at the shopkeeper.

"Guest, I'm sorry, you didn't say anything when you came in, I thought you didn't need anything. I'm sorry to be there. The hippie of the big shopkeeper laughed at your coming, although he smiled a little reluctantly, but he still laughed after all.

"Boss, how many rooms do you have here? We're going to tip up here tonight. By the way, get us some food, and when you go out, you don't pay so much attention to it, as long as you can fill your stomach. The old man said.

"Okay, no problem, everything will be done according to your instructions. It's just that you need a few houses, and there are not many rooms left in the store, so you need a few early openings, and when other guests come, you don't have any of them. The shopkeeper said.

"Two houses are enough, a big house with a little more open." Scarface commanded.

"Then you can follow me to see the room first, and then it's not too late to eat." The shopkeeper said that he would lead the way.

"Big brother, since the boss said so, then I'll go and see it first." The middle-aged man proposed.

"Alright! Wait here first, and I'll go up and see, and I'll come back." The old man said with a wink at Scarface.

The upstairs room is divided into: heaven, earth, Xuan, Huang, Yu, Zhou, Hong, and barren eight rooms, according to the order of arrangement, the more elegant the room in front of, the more expensive the price.

The old man chose four rooms, A, B, C, and D, facing each other, and a bell was installed on the door, and when there was a disturbance, they would be immediately alert, and they would take care of each other.

After choosing a room, the old man went downstairs and sat down in his original position.

The runner served wine and vegetables, three meat and two vegetables, a jar of sorghum wine, and a pot of rice.

"Guest officer, please use it slowly, what do you need to say hello?" Xiao Er, who ran the hall, said politely.

"Okay, little second brother, you go get busy!" The old man spoke politely.

These people seemed to be hungry, and when the food was brought to the table, it was immediately swept away.

Zhao Renjie and Ying'er were surprised when they looked at the hungry dogs fighting for food when those people were eating.

At ten o'clock in the evening, only the sound of horses' hooves was heard at the door of the inn, Ying'er opened the window and saw the shopkeeper open the door and welcomed a few people in.

There was a shouting from downstairs, Zhao Renjie felt that something was wrong, and told Ying'er not to meddle in things. Ying'er stood upstairs and looked down, only to see the shopkeeper and the running hall running up and down, serving tea and wine, and they were very busy.

"Looking at a few people, I don't know where it came from. The shopkeeper is respectful to them, and he must have a lot of origin. Looks like something big is going to happen to this inn tonight. ”

"Sir, it doesn't seem safe here, so let's get out as soon as possible." Ying'er said.

"Look at the current situation, can we leave? Besides, we're here to investigate, and maybe the murderer is among these people at the inn. Zhao Renjie said.

Ying'er felt that it made sense, so she had to comply, the two of them lived in the same room, Zhao Renjie slept on the bed, and Ying'er sat by the window.

"Ying'er, why don't you sleep?" Zhao Renjie asked.

"It's too chaotic here, I can't sleep, sir, you go to sleep first!" Ying'er said.

Zhao Renjie lay on the bed and pretended to sleep, he always paid attention to the movement outside. Ying'er blew out the candle and fell asleep on the table in a daze.

At midnight, the shouting downstairs was gone, and the upstairs was silent, and the whole hotel was calm.

Zhao Renjie didn't dare to fall asleep, he saw Ying'er lying on the table and napping, he didn't dare to be alarmed, and put a coat on him.

At about three o'clock in the morning, there was a sound of gentle footsteps upstairs, Zhao Renjie became alert, quietly came to the window, pierced the window paper and looked out quietly for a while, and listened for a while. I saw two black shadows coming from the sky, and the footsteps stayed by the windows of each house for a while, I don't know what they were doing? Getting closer and closer, seeing that he was at the window of the room where they lived, Zhao Renjie scratched the flint and lit the oil folds, and by the light of the oil folds, he saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly, it turned out to be the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper.

"You two, you haven't slept so late?" Zhao Renjie suddenly opened the door and said.

"Now the world is very chaotic, see if the guests upstairs are sleeping, what is the safety situation? Whether the doors and windows are closed properly. The shopkeeper was taken aback when he saw Zhao Renjie suddenly appear, but he quickly calmed down and said unhurriedly.

"You two are really careful, I admire you." Zhao Renjie said with a smile.

"Farewell, we're going to go ahead and have a look." The shopkeeper went to the front, and the shopkeeper glanced at Zhao Renjie with a fierce look in his eyes.

Zhao Renjie closed the doors and windows, turned off the lights, and lay down to sleep.

Not long after I fell asleep, I could only hear whispers outside, and I didn't know what to say.

"Ying'er, wake up, there's a situation." Zhao Renjie whispered.

Ying'er woke up, rubbed her sleepy eyes and muttered, "What's the situation?" ”

"Listen, there are people talking outside, it seems that there are a few people, could it be a killer?" Zhao Renjie said.

Ying'er cheered up and listened quietly, and sure enough, someone was beating their idea.
