When A-Yao was in a daze, she felt that someone was shaking her body vigorously, forcing her sleepiness to open her heavy eyelids, and faintly saw Yuanzi's vague face, she replied in a slightly low voice: "Yuanzi, is there anything wrong with it so late?" ”

Seeing that A-Yao finally came to consciousness, Yuanzi shouted with a happy face: "This little brother, you have finally woken up, take the antidote, the boss lady has drugged your diet at night." Yuanzi said as he poured a small pill into a small porcelain bottle and handed it to Ah Yao.

Ah Yao was shocked by these words and suddenly sobered up a lot, and now she only feels that her whole head is heavy, and her upper and lower eyelids can't help but want to fight, it seems that she has really been drugged.

She took the pill handed over by Yuanzi and ate it, then she suddenly thought of Yao Qi inside, and hurriedly reached out to shake her: "Aqi, wake up, wake up!" ”

After shaking for a few times and not moving, Ah Yao was also a little anxious for a while, and looked at Yuanzi for help: "What's wrong with my brother?" Why can't you wake up? ”

Yuanzi stepped forward and looked at it: "He should have eaten too much food last night, and the amount of medicine was too strong, so just feed her this medicine and see if she can wake up after a while." ”

Ah Yao took the pill handed over by Yuanzi and hurriedly stuffed it into Yao Qi's mouth and gave it to her, seeing that she didn't swallow it alive or dead, she hurriedly got out of bed and poured water, and ate three glasses of water in a row, which can be regarded as pouring the antidote into Yao Qi's mouth. Seeing that she took the antidote, A-Yao shook her body again, and this time Yao Qi finally came to her senses.

"Sister, is it dawn? What's wrong with me, I feel so sleepy, I can't open my eyes. Yao Qi rubbed his eyes and said sleepily, and gradually felt that something was wrong, and suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Yuanzi with a calm face under the candlelight, Yao Qi sat up excitedly, "Yuanzi, why did you enter our room in the middle of the night?" ”

"We were drugged by the proprietress of the store, and it was Yuanzi who saved us." Ah Yao said to Yao Qi and looked at Yuanzi with a grateful face: "Thank you Yuanzi, but what if you saved us and were scolded by them by the shopkeeper?" ”

"Originally, I didn't have the guts to save you, but you were lucky enough to meet the boss's enemy who came to settle accounts with her, but now that there is a fight outside, I can't take care of this here for a while, so I dare to come to save you."

"But what's going on with this qiē?" Yao Qi, who had just woken up, was still puzzled for a while, "Is this a black shop, why did the proprietress drug us?" ”

Yuanzi looked at the two people who were full of doubts, her dark eyes became dim little by little, and looking at the flickering lights in the room, she opened her lips leisurely:

"My real name is Xu Yuan, my brother Xu Quan, that is, the circle you saw during the day, this 'Baili Inn' was originally opened by our brother and sister, although there are not many pedestrians coming and going, but the money earned can barely survive. Until one day a man and a woman came to this shop, and they seized our inn with their martial arts, and forced my brother and me to work for them.

The husband and wife did all kinds of evil in the store, and every guest who came to stay in the hotel never let go, drugged the guests' meals at night, and then took advantage of the fact that there was no one at night to take the guests' plates.

In order to prevent the reputation of this black shop from being spread, they even went crazy to seek the lives of others, and then discarded them on the Qinan Mountain in front.

It wasn't until two months ago that a merchant who came to stay noticed that something was wrong and escaped from the inn before the shopkeeper made a move.

The proprietress thought it was a letter from our brother and sister, and locked us up in the firewood room for three days, and we were whipped all over our bodies every day. Since then, my brother and sister have never dared to speak in front of others.

Tonight, a group of mysterious black-clothed people suddenly came to the inn, and the proprietress and they fought, and those people seemed to be unable to distinguish between good and bad, but when they made a fatal move, they should have come to seek revenge. ”

After listening to Xu Yuan's story, A-Yao felt a shock in her heart, and it was a shame that so many things happened tonight, otherwise, she and Yao Qi would not be able to see the sun tomorrow. Thinking of this, A-Yao was afraid for a while: "Then what should we do now?" ”

"My brother has gone to call your groom for the New Year, and when he wakes up, we will send you out of here." Xu Yuan said softly, for fear that the movement would be too big and be discovered by the people in front.

As soon as Xu Yuan's words fell, they heard the sound of the door being opened, and Ah Yao and Yao Qi were shocked, and they were relieved to see that it was Xu Quan.

Xu Yuan hurriedly stepped forward: "Brother, why are you the only one?" ”

Xu Quan said: "Sun Nian didn't find it, and the carriage was gone, it is estimated that he had already discovered that the situation was wrong, so he fled in the carriage." This kind of person who is constantly running around outside is always smarter than others when it comes to this kind of thing. Xu Quan said and looked at Ah Yao and Yao Qi on the bed, "Are the two of them okay?" ”

Xu Yuan nodded: "The antidote has been given to them, are we going to take them out of here now?" ”

"No need." Xu Quan said that his sister looked puzzled, and then explained, "I just went to the front yard, the evil woman and her man have been beaten to death, and the group of people has just left. ”

"Killed?" Xu Yuan felt excited and incredulous, "That evil woman and her man are really dead?" ”

Xu Quan nodded cautiously: "Really, I just watched their snorts, and I have already lost my breath, and I don't know where those people came from, so I rode away after killing someone." ”

"It doesn't matter where they come from, the man and woman who killed the dog for us are our great benefactors, brother, take me to see it." Xu Yuan pulled Xu Quan out of the house after saying that, but left Ah Yao and Yao Qi behind.

"Let's go, let's go check it out." Ah Yao said to Yao Qi beside her.

When I arrived at the front hall, the benches, tables and chairs inside were smashed into a mess, and some wine jars were broken, and the wine in the jars was scattered all over the ground.

At an overturned table, a man and a woman were lying flat, bloodstained and grim-faced. These two people are the shopkeeper and the proprietress who are still alive and kicking during the day, but now they are lying here unconscious, dead.

Seeing this terrible scene in front of her, Ah Yao felt a wave of nausea in her stomach, and she hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Yao Qi was worried for a while, she also felt disgusted when she looked at the corpse, but she didn't react as much as her sister.

Xu Quan and Xu Yuan were stunned, and after a while, Xu Yuan pointed to the two and asked, "Sister?" Are you women? After that, the two of them didn't answer and smiled alone, "I said, how can a big man be weak like a girl." ”

Yao Qi couldn't help but say when she looked at her slightly sneering words: "What does this have to do with weakness, who is not afraid of seeing two dead people lying here like this." ”

Xu Yuan's face was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "That's right, the first time I saw these two people kill someone, I also hid in the house and vomited for a long time." I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that. ”

Ah Yao endured the tumbling of the river and the sea in her stomach, and shook her head at Xu Yuan with a smile: "It's okay, I'll go and breathe." Ah Yao said and ran quickly to the backyard. Yao Qi saw it and hurriedly followed.

"Sister, what's wrong with you, don't scare me." Yao Qi saw that A-Yao had been gagging, her face was also pale and scary, and her heart was so frightened that she followed it.

Ah Yao wiped her mouth with a towel and comforted Yao Qi: "It's not a big deal, maybe the stimulation just now is too great, you don't have to worry." ”

"It really doesn't matter, why do I think your body is getting weaker and weaker, your face is getting worse and worse, is it sick? If you look like this, if you let your brother-in-law know, you will definitely feel distressed again. ”

Seeing Yao Qi's worried appearance, A-Yao couldn't help but smile: "I'm really fine, the way to Beijing is still so long, how could I let myself fall?" ”

The sky outside was getting brighter, and Ah Yao couldn't help but sigh: "Sun Nian has run away, and the carriage is gone, it seems that we have to walk a long way on foot." ”

When he mentioned Sun Nian, Yao Qi couldn't help but complain: "This person is really, he ran away by himself when he found danger, so we came together, how could he squeak before leaving." If it weren't for the Xu family brothers and sisters and those assassins, maybe the two of us would have died. ”

Ah Yao comforted: "Forget it, don't think about these things, he is not related to us, and it is normal that he can't think of us." But we have a big life, isn't it okay? Forget it, let's not talk about him, let's pack up our things and go, get to Beijing one day earlier, and I'll settle down one day earlier. ”.

After bidding farewell to the brothers and sisters of the Xu family, Ah Yao and Yao Qi hiked up Qinan Mountain.

The two didn't know the way to Beijing, so they had to cross Qinan Mountain before making plans.

Qi Nanshan didn't look majestic and precipitous, but Ah Yao and Yao Qi were still tired and out of breath when they got up.

Yao Qi was better, but Ah Yao somehow couldn't use any strength at all, she felt soft all over, and she almost fell down the mountain several times because her center of gravity was unstable.

Walking and stopping, before stepping out of this big mountain, the sky darkened again, and layers of dark clouds shrouded the sky like dyed ink, setting off the entire Qinan Mountain gloomy and terrifying.

Ah Yao and Yao Qi sat on a big rock next to each other, and the cold wind on the mountain made them shiver and shiver uncontrollably.

"Sister, we can't go down the mountain when it's so dark, do you think we will freeze to death if we sit on this halfway up the mountain all night?" Yao Qi asked a little scared, and before Ah Yao could answer, another terrible conjecture came into mind, "Sister, this mountain is ...... Will there be wild beasts, like tigers, wolves, or whatever? ”

The more Yao Qi thought about it, the more frightened she felt, and hugged Ah Yao tightly: "Sister, I'm so scared, what should we do?" ”

After talking to herself for a long time, Yao Qi suddenly noticed that Ah Yao seemed to be a little wrong, and hurriedly shook Ah Yao, who was leaning on her shoulder: "Sister, what's wrong with you, don't sleep, if you sleep, I'll be even more scared." Yao Qi's words already had a crying tone.

Yao Qi's fear made Ah Yao gradually regain some consciousness, she stiffened her tired body and straightened her head, patted Yao Qi's shoulder and comforted: "Don't be afraid, it'll be fine, my sister is here." ”

As soon as the words fell, she heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of her, and A-Yao was overjoyed: "I'm afraid that someone is coming over on the mountain road ahead, let's go and take a look, maybe it's saved." ”
