Gu Jiuge smiled and asked curiously, "This is a remote place, how did the shopkeeper think of doing business here?" She held a cup of hot tea in her hand, as if gossiping.

The shopkeeper is also a kind person, and said with a smile: "The girl doesn't know, there is a Qingshui Village near my inn, and there are more than a dozen families living in it, occasionally someone in the village comes out to the town to make a living and buy, but there is still a long way to get to the town, they come out, sometimes at night, and there is no place to stay, so I think of opening an inn here, which can take care of the people in Qingshui Village, and also take care of the people passing by." ”

After listening to him, Gu Jiuge nodded.

Hearing this, Huiqiu couldn't help but say: "The shopkeeper is really a kind-hearted person, but this place is so remote, how can he make a living?" ”

The shopkeeper waved his hand when he heard this, and said a little embarrassed: "I have no children and no daughters in my life, and my wife left many years ago, and I don't have anything to worry about, so I don't do anything." That's how it is now, and that's good. ”

Hearing him say this, Gu Jiuge and his party were faintly surprised. This shopkeeper looks like he is only about fifty years old, and he has never remarried since his wife died early.

Gu Jiuge looked around and said, "But if there are so many guests every day, it shouldn't be a problem to make a living." ”

"The girl doesn't know, I didn't see a few guests for three or five days in the past." The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Today is good luck, the front foot just came to those two tables of guests, and the back foot came to the back foot." ”

Gu Jiuge nodded when he heard this, looking thoughtful.

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, seeing that the four of them had not moved their chopsticks, he quickly got up and said apologetically: "Look, I was confused and delayed the meal of several distinguished guests." ”

Gu Jiuge smiled lightly and said, "It's okay." ”

After greeting them, the shopkeeper left, and Gu Jiuge and the others were also ready to eat. After a day's journey today, I was already hungry. There was wind in the lobby, Gu Jiuge shrank back from the cold, and gathered the cloak on her body, but because of the injury on her shoulder, her hand trembled in pain, and the chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Huiqiu hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and his eyes lifted forward, falling on the two tables sitting opposite. She was shocked, stabilized her mind, and put the chopsticks on the table.

Gu Jiuge and the others didn't notice her abnormality, Huiqiu was a little panicked, thought about it for a while, and slowly stretched his fingers into the cup on the side and dipped it in water.

She raised her left hand to hold her hair as a cover, dipped her right hand in water and wrote the word "knife" on the table, and then wrote the word "fierce".

And the other three also saw it and immediately became vigilant.

Gu Jiu Ge pretended to look around unintentionally, but the afterglow kept falling on the two tables opposite. Although they were dressed like merchants, the shoes on their feet were not ordinary merchants' clothes, and there was a dagger stuck in the upper of the boots.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuge felt uneasy in his heart, and he only felt that all this was too coincidental. The shopkeeper said that there was not a single guest here for three or five days, but today there were so many people, and they arrived with them on the front foot and back foot, deliberately concealing their identity, and carrying a murder weapon, which really makes people have to be suspicious.

"It's a little cold, let's let Xiao Er bring the food to the room to eat." Gu Jiu Ge said as if he had no intention, and got up.

And the people at the two tables who were still talking and laughing, when they saw Gu Jiuge and them get up, their bodies were cold, and they all stood up at once.

In this way, they can't help but think about it too much.

Mu Liang protected Gu Jiuge's master and servant behind him, and the two sides confronted each other. The other man raised his hand and tore off his clothes as a disguise. A group of eight people, all dressed in black.

"Who are you?" Nantian drew his sword, stood side by side with Mu Liang, looked at the black-clothed man opposite and asked coldly.

When the man in black at the head heard this, he raised his voice and said, "The one who took your life! With that, he flipped his wrist, pulled out the long sword hidden under the burden, and rushed towards Mu Liang and the others.

Mu Liang and Nantian joined forces, and also drew their swords to meet them, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Gu Jiuge and Huiqiu have almost no ability to protect themselves, and in the current situation, she can only take Huiqiu to avoid the attacks of those black-clothed people as much as possible, so as not to cause trouble to Mu Liang.

But those black-clothed men obviously wanted to put them to death, and the six of them restrained Mu Liang and Nantian, and separated the two to deal with Gu Jiuge's master and servant. Gu Jiuge saw that something was wrong, flipped the bracelet on his wrist, and a poisonous needle was suddenly launched, and the man in black walking in front of him was unexpected, the poisonous needle sealed his throat and killed him with one blow.

The other man in black was also stunned for a moment, but his gaze quickly locked on Gu Jiuge's wrist. Cold sweat broke out on Gu Jiuge's forehead, and the wound on his shoulder was driven by the car again, and it hurt terribly.

Moreover, the same trick can no longer be used a second time.

The man in black reacted and slashed down with a sharp sword in his hand. Gu Jiuge pushed Huiqiu away with one hand, and hurriedly dodged, but fell to the ground because of his unstable body.

"Miss!" Huiqiu screamed in surprise and pounced, the man in black didn't guard her, she pounced hard from behind, staggered a few steps, and the sword in his hand was also slashed in the wrong direction.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuge hurriedly got up, but Huiqiu couldn't avoid it, and the man in black became angry, turned around and kicked her heart. Huiqiu was already weak, where could he eat this kick, and suddenly spit blood in his mouth, lying on the ground and unable to move.

When Mu Liang saw the situation here, he was anxious to kill two people in a row and rushed over.

But the situation is becoming more and more dangerous, and the people who designed to intercept and kill them today must have made all preparations, and more than a dozen black-clothed people poured into the inn. Even though Mu Liang was good at martial arts, but with one enemy, he had to protect Gu Jiuge, and he really couldn't get out of it, and he fell behind.

Another wave of men in black came, and the move was deadly. Mu Liang held Gu Jiuge by his side, and he had no time to be distracted, but he couldn't care about painting autumn.

Huiqiu struggled to get up, but unexpectedly, she had just straightened her back, and before she could stand up, she was targeted.

A man in black behind her raised his sword in his hand, and the cold light flashed, and he was about to slash down.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuge's heart ached like tears, and she struggled and was about to rush over, but Mu Liang refused to let go, she couldn't break free at all.

At the last moment, Nantian flew up, picked her up by the waist, and was about to leave, but there was a sharp pain in her back. That sword slashed at Nantian's body.

Nantian couldn't support it, his legs were weak, he knelt on one knee, his right hand clutched the hilt of the sword, barely supporting his body, but his left hand still protected Huiqiu.

Huiqiu was protected by him, looking at the blood on the corner of his mouth, and he was at a loss for a while.

"Nan Gongzi ......"

Seeing that Nantian was injured, the attack of the man in black became more and more powerful. Mu Liang escorted Gu Jiuge to Nantian's side, but it was really difficult to defeat so many people.

At this moment, a puff of smoke rose, and everyone was stunned. Looking back, it was a fire in the backyard of the inn, and the fire was very large, but in a moment, thick smoke filled the entire lobby, and by this hall, the smoke rose everywhere, and the fire grew bigger.

Thick smoke obscured the view, and the men in black could not attack.

Gu Jiuge groped and squatted down, and as soon as he touched Huiqiu, he felt a blanket soaked in water covering them. Before they could react, someone had already dragged them into the depths of the fire.

I don't know how long it took, but I left the inn, and from a distance, the fire was soaring, and it was very spectacular.

Gu Jiuge tore off the blanket on his body and coughed violently. Although he had a blanket to cover his face, he still inhaled a lot of smoke.

Mu Liang hurriedly supported her, looked up and down carefully, and saw that she was not injured, so he was relieved.

"Shopkeeper, thank you for your help." Gu Jiuge calmed down, and then looked at Uncle Chen, who was also disgraced beside him, and thanked him. If it weren't for Uncle Chen setting fire to the inn, I'm afraid they would have been captured by now.

Uncle Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said anxiously: "Girl, don't be polite to me, the top priority is to treat this son first." I saw that the wound on his back was not light. ”

When he said this, Gu Jiuge and the others remembered that Nantian was seriously injured, leaning on Huiqiu's shoulder, his thin lips were pursed, his face was pale, and the clothes on his back were already soaked with blood.

Eqiu was also so frightened that her little face turned pale and she only cried.

"Miss, what should I do? Our medicine is all on the wagon, but we can't go back now. Nan Gongzi, he ...... He is so badly injured, will he ......" Huiqiu looked up at Gu Jiuge and asked crying, caring is chaotic, she can't even finish her words at this time.

Mu Liang squatted down with a gloomy face to check his wounds, those black-clothed people were all killed, and the sword that Nantianhou was on was deeply visible. Even if he is a martial arts practitioner, if he doesn't rush to treat him, he is afraid that his life will be in danger due to excessive blood loss.

"Childe, I was originally from Qingshui Village, and it is not far from this path, and it will take half an hour to arrive. If you don't dislike it, you can follow me to Qingshui Village to treat this son. Uncle Chen stood aside and looked at Mu Liang and whispered.

Mu Liang and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, got up and bowed their hands, and made a gesture towards Uncle Chen, saying, "Thank you, uncle, the grace of saving your life cannot be repaid." ”

"Then don't delay, let's go." Chen Bo nodded again and again, and then led the way.

Mu Liang bent down to pick up Nantian on his back, and the group followed Uncle Chen, walking deep and shallow on the remote path by the moonlight.

After about half an hour, I faintly saw some candlelight.

Chen Bodao: "The front is Qingshui Village, there is a doctor in the village, I will take you there." ”

Mu Liang nodded when he heard this, followed Uncle Chen into the village, and walked for a while before he stood at the door of a family.

Uncle Chen stepped forward and knocked on the door and shouted, "Brother Li! Open the door! ”

After calling for the door for a while, I heard movement inside, and an old man in his fifties, also in his fifties, ran out wrapped in clothes. The door opened a small crack, and after seeing that it was Uncle Chen, he screamed and hurriedly opened the door.
