Chapter 124: Encounter with robbers at night

"Miss" Xi'er heard Jian Ning's words, and suddenly felt a little hurt, and looked at Jian Ning aggrievedly.

"Xi'er, you don't know martial arts, and you don't have the bodies of the two of them, so what's going on. Besides, this room is only a little place, how can there be a place for you to lay the floor. Jian Ning looked at Xi'er's appearance and wanted to laugh a little. It's not good to put her in bed.

As soon as Xi'er heard Jian Ning's words, she looked at Ruan Zijin and Su Tong, and then looked around, it was indeed as Miss said.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Guest officer, your food has been delivered." The voice of the little second Ngawang sounded outside.

"Send it in." Xi'er went and opened the door and said.

Looking at the dishes delivered, Jian Ning didn't have much appetite. Those dishes, but by smelling, Jian Ning knew that the taste must not be much better.

However, there is no one in this hundred miles, and it is good to be able to eat, so after a few bites of food, I can't eat anymore.

Sleeping on the bed at night, he was suddenly woken up by Ruan Zijin gently, and opened his eyes in a daze, Jian Ning asked in a nasal voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Shh Ruan Zijin immediately motioned to Jian Ning not to speak.

And Su Tong on the side also woke up Xi'er, who was asleep.

"There's movement outside, I don't know what the situation is, don't talk yet." Ruan Zijin said softly.

Just now she heard movement outside, and woke up directly, just wanted to get close to the door to take a look, but how did she know that Su Tong also woke up.

The two listened quietly again, and after making sure that they heard correctly, they went to wake up Jian Ning, so that when something really happened in a while. Leave in time.

"Not good. Someone's coming this way. Su Tong, after you get to the door. Miss and Xi'er quickly went back to bed and lay down and pretended to sleep. After Ruan Zijin finished speaking, he quickly picked up a quilt on the ground and lay down on the bed.

As soon as he lay down, the door was gently pried open. Su Tong hid behind the door and clearly saw two people walking in. Ruan Zijin, who was lying on the bed, also felt that two people walked in.

The two people quickly approached the bed, and when they saw the three women lying on the bed through the moonlight, they suddenly laughed obscenely: "It seems that this time it is good luck, people and money!" ”

"Be quiet, and get people unconscious. Tie it up and send it to the backyard, the boss is still waiting! The other immediately reminded in a whisper.

"Got it, got it." As he spoke, the man took out a white cloth from his arms and walked towards Ruan Zijin.

Who knew that when he was close to Ruan Zijin's face, he was grabbed by a hand fiercely, and before he could scream, the person who was originally asleep on the bed suddenly got up and slashed at his neck.

The person next to him noticed that something was wrong and just wanted to do it. He was knocked unconscious from behind. Jian Ning and Xi'er also hurriedly got up at this time, thinking about what they had just said. A little scared.

Xi'er just wanted to light the lamp, but Su Tong immediately stopped and said, "You can't light it, otherwise you will be discovered." ”

"Is this a black shop?" Jian Ning asked thinking about the words of the two just now.

"It shouldn't be, although this store is dilapidated, it has been open for more than ten years, and if it was a black store, something would have happened a long time ago." Su Tong glanced at the two people on the ground, and then said, "It should be that robbers live in this store." ”

"I don't know what happened to Shopkeeper Liu and Feng Yang?" Ruan Zijin listened to Su Tong's words and suddenly asked.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of someone opening the door and entering. Su Tong and Ruan Zijin were immediately on guard.

"It's me." Xiahou Yan's voice came, and the two who were on guard also relaxed a little.

"How's it going out there? What's going on? What about the willow shopkeeper? Ruan Zijin immediately asked.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I asked him to hide for the time being, and he will be fine. I just took a rough look at the situation, and most of the customers and the owner were tied up in the backyard. In addition to people, there was also a box of jewelry and a box of silver in the backyard. I think there must be a wealthy merchant among those guests, who have been targeted by these bandits. ”

"What a robber!" Ruan Zijin and Jian Ning couldn't help but be surprised.

"Isn't our carriage also in the backyard? Won't we be found sooner or later? Jian Ning said nervously.

There were no valuables on the carriage, but when the carriage was parked, the robbers must have known that there were still people here who had not been caught.

"Even if you don't have that carriage, if you knock these two people out here, they will detect it sooner or later." Xiahou Yan pointed to the two people who fell to the ground.

"So what now, how many of them are there?" After Jian Ning came here, it was the first time she felt so dangerous.

At the beginning, even if she was caught by human traffickers, she was not so afraid, because at that time she knew that those traffickers only wanted money and did not kill people! But now I met a robber, and if I wasn't careful, this little life would be gone. And it's still a wilderness, even if you call for help, no one will come to help!

"There are about ten people in the courtyard, and there are seven or eight places in the lobby below, and it is estimated that the exit of this inn is guarded by their people. It is not clear if there are anyone else. Xiahou Yan could hear the fear in Jian Ning's words, and in order to appease Jian Ning, he immediately said, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

"In this case, you come with me first, and go to the next room to hide for a while." Xiahou Yan took Jian Ning and the others out of the room cautiously.

Someone in the next room has just come to search, and I don't think anyone will come to search it. Besides, he was more relieved to put Jian Ning and Liu Leshan together.

After hiding Jian Ning and them, Xiahou Yan, Ruan Zijin and Su Tong quietly sneaked out of the room.

"Ah Lu, you guard here first, Su Tong and I will go to see if there are any robbers in the room inside." After leaving the door, Xiahou Yan said to Ruan Zijin. Although he had already hidden Jian Ning and the others, he still had to make sure that there was no danger in this place before he could leave with peace of mind.

"Hmm." Ruan Zijin nodded.

Su Tong and Xiahou Yan moved quickly, and it took about a quarter of an hour to search the five rooms inside.

"Now let's go down, Ah Lu, you will be in charge of the seven people in the lobby in a moment, and when you are done, go out from the gate to the stable behind the inn, and after driving the carriage and your horse to the door, send Miss Jane and them away. Su Tong and I will take care of the backyard and the rest of the robbers, and then we will go to meet you. Xiahou Yan roughly assigned the next action.

In fact, according to his ability, these bandits would not be able to stop him even if they came ten times more. But there is still a Su Tong here that he needs to be afraid of. She couldn't put Su Tong next to Jian Ning and them, lest she have a chance. Of course, when you put it by your side, you should always pay attention to whether she will stab her in the back.

And it is not advisable to kill people here, although there is no one nearby, but this inn is near the official road, and there are many people who come and go during the day.

Then the three of them began to act as planned.

Because he didn't want to cause trouble, Ruan Zijin didn't draw his sword, but used the scabbard as a weapon, and after knocking down those people one by one, he found a few ropes, tied them firmly to the four pillars in the lobby, and stuffed them with a rag he took from the table.

Hearing the movement outside, several bandits who wanted to come out to find out were directly knocked unconscious at the door by Xiahou Yan and Su Tong.

Seeing this change, the bandit leader who was originally sitting on the stone mill stood up suddenly and looked at the man and woman who appeared in front of him.

"Who are you, I advise you to be less nosy, otherwise be careful to let you have no return." said so, but he secretly made a secret signal to his subordinates in the dark, wanting to catch Xiahou Yan and them by surprise.

But just this little trick, don't say that you can't escape Xiahou Yan's eyes, even Su Tong can see it clearly, and immediately stop listening to the nonsense of the bandit leader, and attack him together, after all, the way of the soldier, capture the thief and capture the king first!

The bandit leader also realized that the two were coming at him, and hurriedly retreated several steps, and there were people in front of him, so he escaped a catastrophe.

After standing firmly, he immediately shouted around: "Why are you still stunned, let me all come out, go up together, and catch them!" ”

Suddenly, more than a dozen people came out of the houses on both sides of the courtyard. The corners of Xiahou Yan's mouth raised slightly, it seemed that he really underestimated them, and he actually hid so many people. It seems that there is a big fat sheep among these kidnapped people, otherwise they would not have let this gang mobilize so many people.

Although there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, the movements of his hands did not slow down at all. In a few moments, a large piece of the ground had already fallen. When the bandit leader saw this, he immediately became angry and shouted with his big knife over there: "A bunch of waste! All together, dead or alive, abolish them for me! ”

Hearing the words "whether you live or die", Xia Houyan was immediately angered, and she was still thinking about their lives and playing with them, but now it seems that there is no need for that.

Immediately, the attack became extremely fierce, and he came to the bandit leader like a ghost, and grabbed his neck with one hand.

"Hero, hero, spare your life! I will give you a third of the jewels and silver that I have snatched," the bandit leader begged for mercy when he saw the hand holding his neck.

"A third?" Xiahou Yan stared at the bandit leader, with an incomprehensible smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked coldly.

"Oh, no, no, half, half!"

"Half?"

"No, if you like it, I will honor you all, and I just ask you to spare my life!" The bandit leader begged for mercy one by one, and his mouth was even more generous. But only he knows in his own heart how unwilling he is, seeing that such a large treasure that he has finally obtained is about to be gone, his heart is really dripping blood!

"Hmph, it's not my own thing, it's really generous!" Xiahou Yan glanced at the two boxes of jewelry and silver, and said coldly. (To be continued......)
