Chapter 41: Misfortune
Looking at the innkeeper's face, Ji Yan was a little at a loss.
This is the first time that a woman has cried to herself in women's clothes, although she closed her mouth tightly and did not cry soundly, but the tears flowed like a curtain, her eyes were red and swollen, and her pupils seemed to tell endless sorrow.
Ji Yan almost softened his heart in a panic, but there were still some rational elements left in his mind, so he only took Chen Erniang's hand away from his thigh, cleared his throat, and said with a straight face: "Boss, which one are you singing?" Bitter love drama? ”
Before the words landed, Ji Yan heard what seemed to be movement outside the house, and while staring at Chen Erniang, who was still only in tears, he bent down to put on his shoes, quietly walked to the door, and listened carefully on the door.
But he didn't have to be so cautious, because the movement was getting louder and louder, and he only heard a few sounds of tables and chairs being knocked over, followed by some fists and feet, but soon it fell silent, and only a few moans of "oops, oops" remained, and after a while, someone outside the house also lit candles.
Ji Yan first glanced at Chen Erniang, who was still sitting on the edge of the bed and couldn't stop crying, seeing that she didn't react, she pushed open the door and poked her head outside.
I saw that Ruan Xiaoyi and his two family members had already subdued three men in the lobby on the first floor, two of them were none other than the guy who opened the door to greet them before, and the other was also in his forties, but I don't know who it was, dressed in an ordinary short costume, with a dark and rough face, a big face and a thick neck like a butcher.
At this moment, all three of them have been knocked to the ground, one is holding his head, the other is covering his stomach, and the other is holding Ruan Xiaoyi's legs, wailing and begging for mercy.
"Grandpa, grandpa, spare us, we dogs have eyes and don't know Taishan."
At this time, Ruan Xiaoyi and the other three also heard the sound of the door opening upstairs, and saw Ji Yan who was a little puzzled, Ruan Xiaoyi was quite excited, and said: "Ji Yan, tonight we live in a black shop, fortunately, my two guys found out that something was wrong early in the morning, and now we have taken them down." ”
Ji Yan pretended to be surprised and said, "Black shop? Wait until I'm ready to put on my shoes, so I'll come down and take a look. ”
He didn't go downstairs in a hurry, but went back to the house directly, walked to Chen Erniang, who was still sitting on the edge of the bed crying, and said coldly: "Boss, stop acting, you guys are opening a black shop that eats people, fortunately my brother has a sharp eye, otherwise wouldn't he have lost his life here?" Tell me, how many lives have you had? ”
After listening to Ji Yan's words, Chen Erniang wiped her tears, knelt directly in front of Ji Yan, and said in a panic: "Daguan, you are clear, we ...... We have never murdered anyone......"
Ji Yan actually understood what kind of routine they were doing at this time, but he still needed to confirm it, so he asked, "I didn't harm anyone, I only made money?" I'll believe what you say? Well, tell me first, what is your plan to come to my house tonight? ”
Chen Erniang cleaned up her crying and said, "The slave family is called Chen Erniang, and she originally ran this old inn with her husband, and her life is not bad......
Ji Yan couldn't tell if what she said was true or not, so he interrupted her and said, "I didn't ask you this, first of all, what are you going to do in my house tonight?" ”
Chen Erniang looked at Ji Yan and whispered, "The slave family is planning to enter the house...... Hook up...... If the officials can't bear it...... I yelled...... Attract people...... Who knows that you are a true gentleman, slave...... The treacherous plan did not succeed......"
Ji Yanxin said: As expected, this is a gang that plays "fairy jumping", and it seems that this kind of fraud has also existed since ancient times.
Ji Yan said with a straight face: "If you succeed and attract people, then you will act blackmail, right?" ”
Chen Erniang kowtowed and said, "The big officials are clear, we never harm people's lives." ”
Ji Yan said again: "Then why didn't you continue to seduce me tonight?" Instead start crying? Why is that? ”
Chen Erniang is still talking like a mosquito, and said: "Ordinary son, brother, often as soon as I see me enter the door, I am impatient, move my hands and feet, as long as I react slightly, they will take the bait, today I met the official, as if I saw through my mind, the slave family was shocked and scared, and remembered the deceased husband, and felt that my life was really bitter, so I cried." ”
After hearing this, Ji Yan secretly screamed that it was dangerous, and he then asked, "Did you still use any medicine?" Let the victims be unfilled. ”
Chen Erniang confessed: "Yes, the big officials are really discerning, after Guan Gong on this wall, there are still a few pores, they burned incense from downstairs, and entered the house from this pores, and after smelling it, it made people blush and feel hot." ”
Ji Yan lifted the statue and took a look, and sure enough, there were a few small holes in the wall, and after all the questions were asked, he let Chen Erniang walk in front, and the two went out of the house and downstairs together.
Ruan Xiaoyi and the other three were still curious about what Ji Yan was rubbing upstairs, but at this moment, they saw the proprietress come out of the house with him, and they obviously cried, and they were all stunned.
Ji Yan found a bench in the lobby on the first floor and sat down, and said to Xiaoyi: "I have already checked the matter, this is an organized and disciplined fraud gang, playing "Immortal Jump". ”
Originally, Ji Yan just casually quoted the more common saying "immortal jumping" in modern times, but he didn't expect that one of Ruan Xiaoyi's family members actually answered, and said: "No wonder we looked for it, but we didn't see the blade, and these three people didn't fight, I still thought about it, and dared to open a black shop with this little means?" ”
It seems that the term "immortal jumping" has been around for a long time, and since this phenomenon exists, there must be a word to describe it.
Ji Yan nodded and said, "Brother, what you said is good, I have already asked, they let this proprietress go to my room to seduce, and then when I am hooked, the proprietress will shout loudly, and then act blackmailing." ”
Ruan Xiaoyi felt quite novel and asked, "Is this method easy to use?" ”
A member of the family said to Xiaoyi with a smile: "It should be easy to make, "Da Ming Law" said: "Rape, hanging; Those who do not succeed will have a staff of one hundred and seventeen, and flow three thousand miles. "If this woman bites to death and attempts to rape, this is a hundred words that are indefensible, and if she is sent to the government, this is a big crime, so ordinary people must think that they are unlucky."
Xiaoyi thought for a while and said, "It makes sense to say that. ”
The family Ding continued: "That is, in those books and picture books, they love to write about some black shops that kill people and sell goods, in fact, the kind of walking in the rivers and lakes is very rare, and this kind of making you dumb to eat Coptis chinensis is common." ”
At this time, the big man who was holding Ruan Xiaoyi's legs and feet said: "What this strong man said is that this blue sky and bright moon are bright and bright, how can anyone dare to seek money and kill people, we are just eating together." ”
Ji Yan kicked this person and said, "What's the matter, it's glorious to open a black shop and never kill anyone, isn't it?" Do you want me to find someone to send you a plaque that says, as long as the money doesn't die? ”
The big man smiled all over his face and said flatteringly: "You don't have to bother the officials with this." ”
Ruan Xiaoyi suddenly remembered something, laughed, pointed to Chen Erniang who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Seeing you like this, I know that you must not be able to hook up, you are anxious and angry, and you are crying urgently." I said you, you guys, you really have no eyes, you didn't even see that our one, he is actually a good man, this can be regarded as Skynet's restoration. ”
Ji Yan really wanted to cry without tears, and he especially wanted to return to Qingzhou immediately, return the bear child to his family, and beat Ruan Zhong, a gossipy man, by the way.
This time it's a hundred mouths, and I can't wash it if I really jump into the Yellow River.
Chen Erniang glanced at Ji Yan resentfully at the moment, and muttered softly: "No wonder ......"
