Qianchen Volume: Concentrate on Cultivating and Hiding Hatred, Exploring the Rivers and Lakes to Provoke Old Enemies Chapter 31 Dividing Troops and Exploring at Night
I don't know how long I slept this night, and when Gu woke up from his dream, the moon was already hanging in the sky outside the window. He was thinking about whether to go to Nalan's room to test it, when he heard the sound of someone pushing the door in. The voice was so soft that it could not be heard unless you listened carefully. Gu Xing immediately turned over and lay down, pretending to be still asleep, waiting for the uninvited guest.
The man crept in, turned and carefully closed the door. Gu Xing didn't know who it was at this time, so he pulled out the short sword on his waist and held it tightly in his hand, just waiting for the person who came to be bad and turned violent and killed. It's just that after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see any movement from that person, and when he woke up and turned his head to peek, a soft touch calmed his heart a little.
When Gu Xing relaxed, a gentle female voice sounded in her ears: "Little girl, get up, you have to do business." "It's none other than Sister Qian, the proprietress of the Half Guard Inn. Gu Xing pretended to wake up, and when he stretched his waist, he pinned the short sword he pulled out back to his waist, pretending that nothing had happened. Sleepy-eyed asked the proprietress worriedly, "Sister Qian, are you going to do it?" ”
The proprietress smiled and said, "We are not the only ones who want to do it tonight." After saying that, he got up and walked to the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it. Gu Xing pondered in his heart for a moment, an imperceptible smile appeared on his lips, he sat up suddenly, jumped to the table and said to the proprietress with a smile: "Then we are taking the initiative?" Or wait and see? ”
The proprietress put down the teacup in her hand, dipped her hand in the teacup, and slowly wrote a few words on the table: The soldiers are divided into two ways. After Gu Xing finished reading, he nodded understandingly, and the proprietress also stayed for a long time, got up and walked out slowly. It's just that the footsteps are too light, as if stepping on the air, as if they didn't touch the ground at all. Gu Xing secretly said to himself, the proprietress is not trivial, it seems that tonight's action will definitely be rewarded.
Gu Xing pondered in his heart for a moment, and started the action according to the deployment of the boss lady. According to what she meant just now, the proprietress personally went to test Nalan, this is understandable, firstly, the proprietress was already afraid of Nalan and what she wanted, and secondly, it was indeed inconvenient for Gu Xing to let Nalan see the true face, so that it would be convenient to act in the future. And Gu Xing stared at the official family in Tancheng, and completely cleared the back hand arranged by the proprietress of the boss, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
It's just that how to develop next is not something that Gu Xing can control. Thinking of this, Gu Xing rearranged his clothes, changed into a dark purple night dress, tightly wrapped his face tightly and only exposed his eyes, and only opened the door and walked out after repeated inspections. At this time, the customers were already unbusy, and all the guests returned to the room to rest, only the shopkeeper was still dozing in front of the counter.
Gu Xing looked around for a while, and after making sure that no one had found him, he tiptoed towards the residence of the officials of Natan City. Just passing by a few places, occasionally some ambiguous voices came out, which made Gu Xing a little red-faced. It seems that in any dynasty, everyone's way of life is different. Not long after, Gu Xing was already lurking outside the door of the official house in Tancheng, and leaned on a table to hide his figure.
After confirming that no one was around, he quietly moved to the front and leaned over to listen. There wasn't much movement inside, just the whispers of a few people. I only heard one person say: "What the proprietress said in 100 days, can it be true?" The other sneered a few times and said, "Your eyes are all confused by her breasts, how can you tell the truth from the fake?" She has been in our Tancheng for so many years, how can you and I be able to see through it. ”
After listening to the conversation between the two, Gu Xing couldn't help but laugh a few times in his heart, and the bumpy figure of the proprietress appeared in his mind, and he sighed secretly, "Sister Qian, in addition to this clever mouth, this is also a sharp weapon for killing." Thinking of this, his thoughts were interrupted by another voice inside the door, and the tone and tone of his voice resembled that of the man headed by the Hundred Days.
I only heard Leng Leng said: "It doesn't matter if what the proprietress said is true or false, we will accept it all." But if I can't catch this next week's meticulous work, then sooner or later our heads will have to move, do you understand? The air suddenly fell into an inexplicable stagnancy, and everyone was silent and silent.
Seeing that there was no one to say anything, the leader continued, "At this time it is almost ugly, and the people in the inn must have fallen asleep, so we will divide up and investigate." Remember, don't leave a trace, and if you find it, you can kill it. I'll take care of the aftermath. If you miss and get caught, I don't need to say much about what to do. There was silence again inside the door, and after a while, a sparse voice sounded, and Gu Xing had already sensed that they had moved, and hurriedly hid their figures, waiting for them to disperse before taking the opportunity to act.
Besides, the proprietress here, after going out, the proprietress went downstairs and asked the shopkeeper to guard the counter, looked around for all kinds of dots, and waited for the guests in the inn to basically go to rest, then went to the back kitchen to get a table of wine and food, and slowly walked up to the second floor to the door of Nalan's room. He knocked on the door and said, "Childe, it's late at night, do you need something to eat before you sleep?" Before Nalan could answer, he pushed open the door and walked in.
Nalan was sitting cross-legged on the bed in the room at this time, with his hands at his side, looking as if he was breathing. The boss's sudden visit did not surprise Nalan, but she frowned slightly, and began to vomit again. The proprietress was not surprised by Nalan's visit, and became more direct. After filling the table with the food and drinks, he reached out to Ranalan to drink together.
When the proprietress stretched out her hand to Nalan, Nalan suddenly opened her eyes, and the proprietress who was watching was trembling, and thought to herself, "This handsome brother's hand almost exposed the old lady's bottom." After stabilizing her mind, the proprietress sighed and wanted to fall into Nalan's arms. Nalan seemed to have expected the proprietress to do this again, and she dodged it sideways, and the proprietress fell firmly on the bed. It's good now, but I can't get up.
Nalan took his breath at this time, got up and straightened his clothes, looked at the proprietress and said, "I don't know what happened when the shopkeeper visited late at night?" The proprietress lay on the bed so lazily, looked at Nalan with affection in her eyes and said, "The slave family is here, can't the son guess it?" Nalan shook his head in confusion. The proprietress made a sad expression, slowly got up and walked to the table, and sat down.
Nalan stood by the bed and watched her next moves, and the proprietress did not shy away from it, poured a glass of wine, took a sip and said: "The slave family admires Gongzi Yarong, and came late at night to tell a good story with Gongzi. Nalan's face at this time was no longer waveless, and he just smiled and said to the proprietress: "Thank you for the shopkeeper's love, it's just the first time we meet, and please ask the shopkeeper to respect himself, so as not to fall into the hands of others and damage his innocence." ”
When the proprietress heard the word "innocent", she suddenly giggled, hid her face and looked at Nalan and said, "Childe, this is pity for the slave family, why don't you sit down and drink a glass of water and wine, and I will leave?" A tangled look appeared on Nalan's face, it was a world of difference from the previous kind of decisiveness, if Gu Lingding saw it, what kind of sorrow would he have. Nalan thought for a moment, his face returned to normal, and he no longer hesitated to sit down, poured himself a glass of wine and said to the proprietress: "It's hard to be gracious, I'll do it first as respect." ”
The proprietress didn't seem to expect Nalan to be so talkative, and the look of surprise on her face flashed, so she poured another glass and said to Nalan: "The slave family accompanied this cup, and it didn't live up to the son's affection." The two of them are calm as usual on the surface, seemingly with their eyes wandering, but their hearts are already turbulent. The proprietress can't tell what kind of medicine is sold in Nalan gourd, so she can only act hard, if she can really take advantage, it will not be a great thing.
And Nalan had already guessed in his heart that the proprietress came to him to delay time to help Gu Xing, even if Gu Xing had already escaped, he would not lose his goal if he followed the trajectory. It's the clue that came to the door, and you have to grasp it well. Thinking of this, Nalan asked, "I don't know how many years the proprietress was born, how did she start an inn business when she looks so young?" ”
The proprietress has the ability to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but in front of Nalan, she poured a cup, licked her slightly red face and replied: "The son doesn't know, the slave family fled here, and the soldiers at the end of the Tang Dynasty were everywhere, and there was nowhere to stay, so although the father came to Tancheng and started a small business." I saved some money and took down the inn, but my father also drove to the west a few years ago, leaving only me, a hard-working woman, guarding the inn alone, hoping that someone with a heart could take me out of this place. ”
Nalan seemed to hear it in his heart, his face showed an empathetic look, and he sighed and said: "The shopkeeper is also a hard-working person, when this is over, it is better to come to the capital to find me, I will help you arrange it, and let the shopkeeper have a support." After listening to Nalan's words, the proprietress turned even redder, leaned forward, spit out wine and said, "You want to take me?" ”
Nalan was silent for a long time, and suddenly his face changed and he shouted to the proprietress in a loud voice: "Lonely Howling Heights Poison Shadow Pan Qian, the shopkeeper has such a loud name, how could he come to my small temple, why don't I accept you here again, and I can really achieve a good story." ”
As he spoke, the wine in the glass suddenly burst out and hit the proprietress with him. The proprietress who was still slightly drunk before, had already accepted her charm, and after seeing her dodge Nalan's sudden move, she said to Nalan pretentiously: "The owner of Mingyue Mansion doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." The slave was only halfway through the story, and he was impatient to do it. As he spoke, his long sleeves floated, and he seemed to have nothing for a moment, but he had a hidden murderous intention.
But Nalan is so scheming, since he will definitely not die when he turns his face, he holds his breath and concentrates on blocking this blow, draws a long sword from his waist, and stabs it at the door of the boss's wife. The proprietress gasped, but she didn't expect the other party to be a killer as soon as she made a move, so she could only retreat again and again, thinking about her next move. At this time, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and the proprietress fell out of the door, shouting: "You are so boring in the future, I drink with you, but you want to use force." After saying that, he hid his face and began to cry.
The outsider was startled at first, and immediately looked at the door, and then looked at the boss lady who fell to the ground, as if she understood something, and suddenly whistled, and rushed into the door. The person who came was none other than a member of the Tancheng official's family who was followed by Gu Xing, but seeing him make a move, it seemed that his identity was not as simple as it seemed.
