"Eh, don't be in a hurry to leave, the two guest officers are helping to clean up on it, you go up now...... No...... It's not ......," said the shopkeeper, and suddenly became distracted.

Ning Zhifo looked at him with a smile on his face, "Shopkeeper, what you said, even if you Xiaoer is cleaning up on it, can't I go up and take a look?" If I remember correctly, it was already our room. ”

Cold sweat suddenly flowed from the forehead of the shopkeeper, "Two, two, this...... I ......"

Seeing the appearance of the shopkeeper, Mu Xiaojiu immediately stood up from his seat, then walked to the front of the counter, raised his hand and pulled out a sign from his waist, "Shopkeeper, is there anything wrong with your shop?" ”

When he said this, Mu Xiaojiu's face had a somewhat playful smile, which suddenly made the sweat on the shopkeeper's forehead even more.

"Hey, shopkeeper, I'm asking you." Mu Xiaojiu turned his head to look at Li Xiaobai, who had just come out of the back kitchen, and beckoned to him, "Xiaobai, this shopkeeper has always refused to tell me what is wrong with his inn, did you find anything in the back kitchen just now?" If not, Master Ning, I'm going to trouble you to go up once. Do a good job of searching the upstairs room to see if there are any problems. ”

Li Xiaobai said: "Master, there is no big problem in the back kitchen, although the kitchen is a little simple, but the environment inside is quite clean." ”

Mu Xiaojiu raised his eyebrows, "Well, is it okay?" That's the biggest problem. There were no problems with the kitchen and no problems downstairs? If it's because of the rain in the past few days, the wood has become moldy, why is there no problem anywhere else, even on the stairs, only the upstairs room is filled with a smell? ”

The shopkeeper swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help but take his eyes off Mu Xiaojiu's body, "Big, adult, you are too worried, we often clean this floor and the kitchen, so naturally there will be no smell." ”

"Yo, I can't see it, you're still a person who loves cleanliness, so why don't you clean up the upstairs guest room? As far as an inn is concerned, the room where the guests want to stay should be more important than the kitchen. Mu Xiaojiu's face showed a sneer, "Shopkeeper, tell me, am I right?" ”

The shopkeeper took two steps back, but did not answer.

"Hey." Mu Xiaojiu raised his hand and knocked twice on the counter, "Master Ning, let's go upstairs and have a look, maybe we can find something interesting upstairs, right?" ”

Ning Chengfo showed a somewhat approving look on his face, "Well, let's go, let's go up and have a look." ”

Just when the two of them wanted to walk upstairs, Xiao Er, who was called Little Monkey, suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs, holding a boning knife in his hand, "If you want to go up, pass me first!" ”

Before Mu Xiaojiu could speak, Li Xiaobai sneered, took out the long sword from his waist, jumped to the stairs in one step, and then picked up the sharp knife in the little monkey's hand with a sword.

"Boy, before you start, think about how many pounds and taels you have. With your two-handed and three-legged cat's kung fu, you also want to block our way? Get out of the way, or I'll throw you out of this inn." ”

The little monkey trembled with fear from Li Xiaobai, and his face turned pale. But he still didn't take half a step back, but took another step forward, "Want, kill, kill, listen!" Don't even think about going up one step anyway. ”

"Humph! Bigotry! Li Xiaobai snorted coldly, raised the long sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword was firmly aimed at the throat of the little monkey, "If you don't get out of the way, I'm really going to do it!" ”

Seeing this scene on the stairs, the shopkeeper suddenly smashed his fist on the counter with an angry fist, "Little monkey, forget it." Ladies and gentlemen...... You don't have to search, I—I'll tell you everything. ”

Mu Xiaojiu moved his gaze back to the shopkeeper's body, "Shopkeeper, in that case, let's talk about it, what's going on?" ”

"Alas...... "the shopkeeper sighed, "and I will say it all." Actually, it all started last night. ”

"Last night, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside the inn, about a dozen or so people. As soon as we came in, they asked us for all the rooms. Our inn is not big, there are only about ten rooms in total, so I arranged them all. ”

"When it was time for the baby to come, we were all ready to rest, and the group suddenly came downstairs, saying that they were hungry and wanted to eat. I was going to tell them that it was too late tonight and that our cook in the back kitchen was already asleep. But the faces of the men were too vicious, and the tone of their voices was very fierce. So, I called the cook in the back kitchen and told him to get up and cook. ”

"After the meal was cooked, the group ate in the first floor without any scruples, and did not shy away from me and the little monkey, just chatted over there, and kept asking us to come over and serve them wine."

"As a result, we heard them talking about what they had done and how much money they had made, and we listened to what they meant, as if they had killed a lot of people at that time."

"The little monkey and I were so frightened that we were about to go back to our room and hide when they found out. One of them called us over for a few drinks, and his words were full of threats, and he threatened us directly, saying that if we dared to talk outside, he would kill me and the little monkey. ”

"I thought, they have drunk too much now, and they are acting arrogantly and without scruples, so they didn't kill us for the time being. But if they wake up tomorrow and think of what happened tonight, then the little monkey and I will surely die under their swords. On the one hand, my life was threatened, and on the other hand, I admit that I have some financial intentions. So, when they asked for another jar of wine, I filled it with rat poison that I had bought during the rat plague. ”

"The dozen or so men drank that jar of wine, and they were all poisoned. Before I did this with the little monkey, I was very determined. But after doing this, the little monkey and I were in a panic, and we didn't know what to do with the corpses of those people. ”

"At that time, we wanted to throw the bodies of these dozen people into the river outside, or bury them. But I don't know why, a group of military masters suddenly came last night, me and the little monkey, we can only ......"
