Chapter 184: Chance

Sleepless all night, no one expected that they would be yin before they arrived in Xiangcheng, the only thing to be thankful for is that those people were just asking for money, so no one was injured.

"I'm really angry, I thought I saved a child, but I didn't expect to save a white-eyed wolf!" The person who was the most angry in this accident was none other than Fang Mengru, after all, if she hadn't wanted to save the child, such a thing would not have happened in the future.

Seeing Fang Mengru's self-blame, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but comfort: "We should have been targeted before we entered the city, this should be a well-designed trap, even if there is no child, they will still use other ways to fool us, Mengru, you don't need to blame yourself too much." ”

After connecting this matter in series, Lin Yingxue only felt a chill in her back - the rivers and lakes are sinister, these methods are much more clever than the methods of those women in the inner house, if it weren't for the fact that those people had no intention of taking their lives, I'm afraid they would have been seeing Hades by now.

The atmosphere in the lobby was heavy, and Murong Jun didn't speak for a long time, just as Lin Yingxue was about to ask Murong Jun what he planned next, a few men with sticks suddenly rushed in from outside the door.

"Who are you guys and what are you doing in my shop?! If you don't leave, I'll report to the official! It was a middle-aged man with a long beard who spoke, and he pointed at Lin Yingxue and the others with a stick thick in his arm and shouted excitedly.

When Lin Yingxue and the others heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other in confusion - they always thought that yesterday's middle-aged man was the shopkeeper of this store, but the shopkeeper and Xiao Er had already escaped at night last night, so who is this so-called 'shopkeeper' who is coming out now?

"Is this your shop? Who is the person who entertained us yesterday and claimed to be the shopkeeper? Lin Yingxue asked, and the guards around her cautiously stepped forward and surrounded several men in the middle.

There are more people on Lin Yingxue's side than the middle-aged man brought, the middle-aged man looked around, his eyes revealed a trace of unease, but he still said forcefully on his face: "Of course this is my store, if you don't believe it, ask the people around here, who doesn't know that this is my Lao Zhou's shop!" ”

Seeing that the middle-aged man's expression didn't look like he was lying, Lin Yingxue thought about it, slowed down her tone and explained, "Then the person who received us yesterday was a guy from your store?" We stayed here for one night, and all the belongings were stolen by the guys in your shop, so if you are really the shopkeeper of this shop, shouldn't you give us an explanation? ”

"What reception is not received? What guys? Business in my store is not good, all the guys have gone back to rest for the past two days, and it only reopened today, who knows how you got in and what exactly do you want to do? The middle-aged man looked at Lin Yingxue and the others with a defensive expression, and seemed to have regarded Lin Yingxue and the others as thieves who had entered the house.

Lin Yingxue looked back at Murong Jun - if what the people in front of her said was true, then they were completely designed.

"Don't be nervous, we have no ill intentions, let's leave." Seeing that the middle-aged man looked like he was about to rush up at any time to make a move, Lin Yingxue frowned, not wanting to cause more trouble.

It's just that the middle-aged man glanced at Lin Yingxue and the others a few times, but suddenly changed his mind, "Wait!" ”

The people who were about to leave couldn't help but stop when they heard the middle-aged man's voice, and saw Lin Yingxue and the others frowning and throwing impatient eyes at him, the middle-aged man couldn't help but straighten his chest as if he was bold before continuing: "You entered my store without my permission, not only stayed in my store for one night, but also moved the things in my store, if you don't give me the cost of room and ingredients, don't think about walking out of the door of this inn!" ”

After the middle-aged man's words were finished, Lin Yingxue's expression couldn't help but become subtle - they were only calculated last night, and this room full of people is still angry, this middle-aged man actually wants to blackmail them again? The person in front of him must not have been squeezed by the door, so he would say such a thing.

Lin Yingxue originally thought that since last night's incident had nothing to do with the person in front of her, she planned to forget it, but the person in front of her was so unafraid of death to touch everyone's mold at this time, she simply took a step back and stopped caring about this matter.

"What do you say? Say what you just said again? Fang Mengru was originally harboring a fire in her belly, but after listening to the shopkeeper's words at this time, she walked out of the crowd without taking an arrow step.

The middle-aged man saw Fang Mengru's menacing appearance, and the momentum on his body couldn't help but be a little shorter, but he was thinking that Fang Mengru was a woman in the end, so he raised his neck again and said stiffly: "I asked you to pay for the room and food, and I will let you out immediately if you give the money-ah, what are you doing?" Murder, Whistleblower! ”

Before the middle-aged man's words were finished, Fang Mengru couldn't bear to grab the middle-aged man's collar and raise it with one hand. The man didn't expect Fang Mengru to be so powerful, and he screamed in panic in fright, and the men standing behind the middle-aged man originally wanted to step forward to save the middle-aged man, but they were swept away by the cold eyes of the surrounding guards, and they suddenly lost the courage to step forward.

"Alright, let's go." Seeing that people had been shocked, Murong Jun, who had never spoken, finally spoke: "Serious matters matter." ”

Murong Jun's words made Fang Mengru stunned, and after glaring at the middle-aged man fiercely, she reluctantly threw the man to the ground - now that they have approached the Xiang Kingdom, no one knows if there are any spies from the Xiang Kingdom in this city, so they still have to keep a low profile, otherwise it will be troublesome if their identities are exposed.

After seeing Fang Mengru's power, the middle-aged man suddenly didn't dare to move anymore, but just as Lin Yingxue and the others were about to leave, two more people walked in at the door.

"It's endless!" Fang Mengru's temper had been completely ignited, she pulled out the saber at her waist and strode towards the door, but after seeing the person at the door, the expression on her face changed from anger to surprise, "Brother Meng, why are you here?" ”

The middle-aged man and the veiled woman who came in at this time were Meng Yi and Peony that Fang Mengru had seen with Lin Yingxue.

"Mengru." Meng Yi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Fang Mengru was intact, "Fortunately, you're fine." ”

Meng Yi's words made Lin Yingxue and the others stunned, seeing that Lin Yingxue and the others were all looking at him with puzzled expressions, Meng Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "This matter is a long story, let's sit down first and talk about it in detail." ”

Meng Yi said as he glanced at the peony behind him, and the peony took his head in his mouth, walked to the middle-aged man on the side, and threw a silver ingot on the ground, "Go make a pot of tea." ”

The middle-aged man's face changed a little better after seeing the silver, and Lin Yingxue and the others heard Meng Yi say this, so they all turned around and sat down again.

"Coincidentally, General Li, who was guarding the city, had some friendship with me. A few days ago, General Li wrote a letter to me, hoping that I could come here to give him advice, I just arrived in the city today and went to visit some of my friends here, but I didn't expect that the flood washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't know the family......"

"I saw that among the items they got yesterday seemed to be the jewelry that Mengru used to wear, so I knew something was wrong. Therefore, after asking them where you are, I hurried over, but fortunately there were no major incidents, otherwise my friends would not have enough heads to cut off. ”

When Meng Yi said this, he couldn't help but get up and bow deeply to Lin Yingxue and the others, Murong Jun was silent, and Fang Mengru said with a surprised face: "No, Brother Meng, those bad guys yesterday were actually your friends......

Fang Mengru opened her mouth wide, as if she didn't expect that in her eyes, Brother Meng, who had always been upright and upright, would have such a friend.

Meng Yi smiled awkwardly at Fang Mengru's surprised eyes, "Those friends are all people on the road, and their methods are naturally different from ours, and I am not very familiar with them, but they just have some friendships." ”

"......"

"Mr. Meng has a wide range of connections, so I might as well sigh to myself." Fang Mengru opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Murong Jun on the side.
