Chapter 55: The Black Shop
When she returned to the inn, Feng Xiying found that someone had entered her room.
You always need to be cautious when you go out, so Feng Xiying will wrap a hair around it every time she leaves the room.
When I came back today, the hair on the door was broken.
Feng Xiying carefully pushed open the door, then looked around, and did not see anything wrong before nervously stepping into the room.
Holding the small knife at her waist, she carefully examined all corners of the room to make sure that there was nothing suspicious, and then turned around and closed the door.
Feng Xiying took out her package and looked at it, and found that a silver ticket that was originally sandwiched between the inner layer of a piece of clothing was missing.
She immediately crouched down vigilantly and reached under the bed.
After digging for a while, I pulled out a small package, opened it, and saw that everything was still there.
Feng Xiying breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the package back and hid it carefully, and then sat on the bed and pondered.
Judging by the current situation, the other party should come in for money.
But he dresses up low-key, and there is nothing particularly flamboyant to show his wealth, so how does the other party know that he is rich.
Looking at the hair on the door, the other party should not have noticed, so it can be seen that it is not a habitual thief.
And he knows his whereabouts, and he knows that he will definitely not be in the inn during the day to dare to act so boldly.
After a period of analysis in his mind, Feng Xiying already had someone who doubted it in her heart.
After drinking two sips of tea, Feng Xiying had a plan in her heart.
Stealing money and stealing it to the old lady, without teaching a lesson, Feng Xiying really couldn't bear this breath.
Before going out the next day, Feng Xiying threw two pieces of broken silver at the counter and asked the people in the store to buy some dry food for herself, saying that she was going to leave.
But my sister will still come to stay, and I will pay some money to the store when the time comes.
The shopkeeper's face was a little strange when he received the broken silver, but he quickly covered up the past and nodded in agreement.
Of course, Feng Xiying saw the abnormality of the shopkeeper, but pretended not to know and swaggered out.
Feng Xiying went around and found a secluded place, looked left and right to see that there was no one, moved two stones to step on, turned over and climbed from the wall into the inn.
She sneaked up from the mound of earth and rocks next to the back kitchen, found the rope she had tied in advance last night, and dragged it up to the second floor.
After entering his room, Feng Xiying stood at the door with a big wooden stick in his hand and waited.
After waiting for a while and not responding, Feng Xiying began to wonder if there was something wrong with her judgment.
Just as he was about to give up, there was a sound of shredded footsteps outside the door.
Walking so carefully in broad daylight is certainly not a good bird.
Feng Xiying took a few deep breaths, stabilized her figure, and raised the wooden stick high.
Sure enough, the footsteps stopped when they reached his door.
Then there was a knock on the door, "Anyone?" Come and deliver the meal. ”
Sure enough, it's the shopkeeper of the inn!
Feng Xiying was furious in her heart, this profiteer actually opened a black shop!
Seeing that there was no response, the shopkeeper knocked a few more times, and then waited for a while before pushing the door in.
As soon as he poked his head out, Feng Xiying went down with a stick.
When the shopkeeper woke up, Feng Xiying was sitting at the table drinking tea.
"Awake?" Feng Xiying put down the teacup and walked over to him.
The shopkeeper wanted to shout, but with a cloth in his mouth, he could only make a whining sound.
"Shopkeeper, let me tell you a story." After Feng Xiying finished speaking, he moved a stool and sat in front of the shopkeeper, and began to speak regardless of whether he listened or not.
"When there was a locust plague in our hometown, in order to survive, the people in the village chose to eat Yizi. I was still young, and in order not to be eaten, I learned to steal corpses in exchange for a chance to live, and it was really hard. Feng Xiying sighed when she said this, glanced at the shopkeeper, but saw beads of sweat running down his head.
"But people don't want to eat the rotting corpses, so what should we do?" Feng Xiying said as she took out her small short knife from her waist and wiped it on her sleeve.
"At that time, I used this short knife to make corpses myself!" After Feng Xiying finished speaking, she suddenly waved the knife and directly wiped off the shopkeeper's hair.
The shopkeeper's face was like earth, the corners of his eyes were moist, and his feet were desperately kicking on the ground, for fear that Feng Xiying would kill him.
Feng Xiying put the knife against the shopkeeper's neck, approached him and said: "At that time, the gold and silver tickets were not as good as a mouthful of meat, after the locust plague passed, I saved a sum of money, commonly known as dead man's money, the shopkeeper, have you seen it?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head again and again, and refused to admit that he had stolen money.
Feng Xiying slid the knife back and forth on his neck and face, "It doesn't matter if the shopkeeper hasn't seen it. Because I killed too many people, the government found an abnormality during the inventory, and began to want me everywhere, and the silver ticket had the landlord's private seal, and I was worried that I couldn't find a chance to get out, but I found out that the silver ticket was stolen last night, and it just helped me. ”
The shopkeeper was already trembling after hearing this, biting the cloth and nodding desperately, and then shaking his head desperately.
Feng Xiying pretended not to understand what he meant, "I still have the same silver ticket in my hand, you said that if I stuff this silver ticket on the shopkeeper's body and go out to report to the official, what kind of sentence will you be sentenced to?" ”
A burst of stench came, and the shopkeeper was directly scared to pee.
Feng Xiying took a few steps back in disgust, "Why are you so daring?" But what do you remember? ”
The shopkeeper burst into tears, nodded again and again after listening to Feng Xiying's question, and wanted to make a sound in his mouth.
Feng Xiying walked around behind him and put a knife against his neck, "The shopkeeper seems to have something to say, then I'll give you a chance, but don't make trouble for me, otherwise I will shake my hand, but I don't know where to poke a hole." ”
After finishing speaking, Feng Xiying took off the cloth in the shopkeeper's mouth, and the shopkeeper cried and said: "The hero spares his life, I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and for a while the ghost was moved by evil thoughts and stole your silver ticket, as long as the hero lets me go, I will return the silver ticket immediately." ”
"What do I want that silver ticket for, isn't it getting into trouble?" Feng Xiying leaned down and whispered in his ear.
"Don't worry, I will never mention this matter to anyone, begging the hero to spare his life." The shopkeeper was frightened at this time, for fear that Feng Xiying would kill people and kill him.
"Since you admit to taking the silver ticket, it's yours. I want silver more than silver tickets, and I want to come to the shopkeeper, right? ”
The shopkeeper cried even more miserably when he heard this, "If the hero asks for money, I will definitely give you all the money I have, not only will the silver ticket be returned intact, but the silver will also be given to you!" ”
Feng Xiying smiled and said, "Since the shopkeeper is so generous, then I will be disrespectful." ”
After taking out a key from the shopkeeper's arms, Feng Xiying, according to his description, turned out a few silver tickets and a lot of silver in a small box in the wardrobe in his room.
I can't see that this shopkeeper is simple but so rich.
Feng Xiying was not polite, and directly packed the money in the box into his package.
"I'm afraid I can't stay here, so I thanked the shopkeeper for his kindness and said goodbye first" Feng Xiying went back to the room and carried the luggage that she had packed last night, and turned around to leave.
The shopkeeper was gagged and screamed in the back.
If Feng Xiying is gone, he will be tied up like this, and he will die of thirst if he doesn't starve.
Feng Xiying walked to the door and turned her head to look at him, "Yes, what to do with you?" ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately quieted down, he probably didn't have a chance to starve to death or die of thirst, and he would be killed by Feng Xiying now.
Feng Xiying walked over with a cruel smile, took out the knife, raised it high above his head, and then swung it down directly.
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly increased, and he fainted in fright.
Feng Xiying's knife cut the rope, turned around and patted his face, "Tsk, just this chicken guts is still learning to open a black shop." ”
Feng Xiying sighed in disgust, and left without looking back.
