Chapter 258: One punch is amazing
"Say! Who the hell are you! ”
Jiang Liang snorted, the man trembled suddenly, the whole person was like a little daughter-in-law, the previous rogue temperament was completely reined, and the eyebrows were lowered.
"I, I'm a poor scholar......"
"What about the deceivers?"
Jiang Liang sighed twice, feeling that this guy was really dishonest, and he was about to make a move.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the man didn't dare to hide it anymore, so he was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, and begged for mercy from Jiang Li.
"I'm not cheating, I'm not cheating!"
The man wiped a cold sweat and told them what had happened to him.
"My name is Sheng Yao, and I am really a traveling reader. When I passed by Rongquan City a few days ago, I felt that the mountains and rivers here were beautiful, and the things were also to my taste, so I lived in the rich restaurant here for a few days. It's just that I didn't expect this stay to be irrelevant, but I learned a secret. The owner of that rich restaurant is not a good thing, and he wants to harm people. ”
"Huh?"
Jiang Liang couldn't help but chuckle in his heart when he heard this, but his face was silent, and he glanced at the man lightly.
"Tell me what's going on?"
"I said, I said, don't worry!"
Sheng Yao may have never seen a woman like Jiang Li, so he looked like he was about to cry, and he hurriedly told what happened.
"Actually, I drank too much that night, and I was awakened in the middle of the night and wanted to go to the hut. I happened to hear movement outside the window, and I got up curiously to check. I thought the restaurant had been burglarized. ”
"You also know that the guests staying in this restaurant are a little entangled, and it is normal to be targeted by thieves."
Sheng Yao wiped a handful of fine sweat on his forehead when he said this, and he didn't know if he was scared, or if he was weak and prone to cold sweat.
"Getting to the point!"
"The point, the point is that when I hear the movement, I want to go out and have a look, thinking that maybe I can catch a thief or something. I went out lightly and happened to see an old man in a Taoist robe walking towards the backyard of the restaurant. Isn't that place all the owner's residence? I thought about it in the middle of the night, and the thief deliberately pretended to be a Taoist priest to come to the door, which was really interesting. ”
Sheng Yao is a curious person, the last thing he believes in his life is that there are ghosts in this world, and in the middle of the night, he watched a Taoist priest walk towards Boss Cai's residence, just as a Taoist priest pretending to be a ghost, so he followed.
He originally thought that he would be able to catch the current situation and act chivalrous and righteous at this time, but he didn't expect that the Taoist priest and Boss Cai were old acquaintances.
The two met for a pleasant greeting, and then began to discuss a major matter.
"That Boss Cai is not a good thing, saying that he has planted some foreign herbs according to the Taoist priest's instructions, and just waiting for those strange herbs to mature and make medicinal food for the guests of the restaurant to eat according to what the old Taoist priest said. What else do you say that this thing can make people want to stop, and it will definitely be famous in the Qing Dynasty when the time comes. ”
"Oh? That's it? How can you be sure that this Boss Cai is a bad person? You just know that he learned a medicinal dish from an old Taoist priest, and this dish can make people want to eat it. That's all. ”
Jiang Liang raised his eyebrows, intuition that this Sheng Yao was not telling the truth.
It is normal for a restaurant to launch new dishes when it is operating, how can ordinary people conclude that Boss Cai is not well-intentioned based on this?
"Of course it's not that simple."
Sheng Yao hurriedly shook his head when he heard Jiang Liang's question, and added: "I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but later the old Taoist priest told the owner of the restaurant a thousand times, asking him not to try the medicinal diet out of curiosity, so I became suspicious." ”
Sheng Yao thinks he is well-informed, and he has never heard of a chef cooking but not tasting it.
It was also because of this that he became vigilant, and after the two of them finished discussing, he originally planned to follow the old Taoist priest and wanted to ask for more details from the other party.
According to Sheng Yao's own statement, that is, he has the dream of doing chivalry and righteousness, but he does not have the ability to do chivalrous justice, he originally looked at the old Taoist priest who looked like he was just an old man in his old age, how could he deal with the other party as a strong young man.
When the time comes, catch the old man and interrogate him, how can he know the truth.
He originally planned to arrest the old man and ask about the matter, and after getting the evidence, he would go to the government to report to the official, but he didn't think that he would be discovered by the other party not long after he went out.
"That old guy was such a cruel man that he beat me up. If I hadn't been clever, I'm afraid I would have died at the hands of that old man! ”
Sheng Yao showed a painful expression on his face when he thought of this, and his hand subconsciously covered the wound, obviously his blue nose and swollen face were the handiwork of the old Taoist.
"However, although I escaped, I didn't dare to go back to Fugui Restaurant, for fear that the owner would know the secret and be discovered by me and want to kill me."
After listening to Sheng Yao's story, Jiang Liang couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
I have to say that although this person is a little scoundrel, he has done a really good job in saving his life.
If he foolishly deceived himself and didn't get discovered by Boss Cai, and returned to Fugui Restaurant, he would have died.
You must know that since Boss Cai has planned so much, it is absolutely impossible to allow someone to ruin his good deeds at such a time.
"Then why don't you report to the official and ask the government to protect you? Why did you fall in my restaurant? ”
Jiang Yun's perception of Sheng Yao had fallen to the bottom at this time, and she only felt that this guy was full of nonsense, and what he said was probably not true.
She stared at Sheng Yao, as if as long as he dared to talk nonsense again, he would directly pounce on and bite someone.
However, Jiang Yun is still too young, and she looks like a delicate and weak little girl, who has no deterrent effect at all, but makes people feel very funny and cute.
This is also why Sheng Yao deliberately teased her before.
Such a cute little girl, others can't help but want to tease her when they see it, to see what she looks like when she is angry.
It's just that he didn't expect Jiang Yun to have an amazing eldest sister at all, the kind that can smash a table with one punch.
"I, I'm not hungry, am I?"
Sheng Yao was a little aggrieved when he said this, and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"I was patronized and curious before, but then I was chased and killed by the old Taoist priest and just ran for my life, and everything was left in the Fugui Restaurant, where was there any silver on my body."
"Looks like you're really planning to touch us."
Jiang Yun was immediately unhappy when she heard this, snorted coldly, and turned her head to look at Jiang Li. "Sister, why don't we throw him out on the street. Whether he dies or not, it has nothing to do with us! ”
"Grandma, you can spare me!"
As soon as Sheng Yao heard Jiang Yun say this, he immediately became anxious, and asked for mercy again and again. "I promise I won't tease you in the future, won't I? Wasn't I confused for a moment! ”
