"Man, what are you doing here?"

The footsteps grew louder and louder, and an old man with a white beard came over with a broom.

Glancing, Su Yin saw a shadow behind the old man.

Immediately, she breathed a sigh of relief.

If there is a shadow, it must be a living person.

"The shopkeeper doesn't have you and you, if you want to go to the thatched house, try to go to the first floor, and the second floor is still repairing Zheng."

"Understood, understood, uncle, you go and get busy first."

After sending the old man away, Su Yin called out to the thatched house.

I heard that the thatched house on the second floor of the uncle was still being repaired, and I didn't know what happened to Zhou Mingshi on the toilet.

After a while, Zhou Mingshi walked out with his clothes in his hands, his face was very ugly.

"Zhou Mingshi, what's wrong with you?"

"I didn't want to stumble, but fortunately, I was clever and almost fell into the dung pit."

"Poof" laughed out loud, Su Yin covered her stomach and smiled: "It's really hard for you." ”

"Let's go back to the guest room, I've been here for a long time, and I always feel hairy."

"Don't scare yourself."

"It's not me scaring myself, it's the atmosphere here."

"You have a lot of excuses."

After scolding each other all the way, the two returned to the guest room Zheng

Just about to find a chair to sit down and rest, Su Yin suddenly grabbed Zhou Mingshi.

"Wait."

"What's wrong?"

"I always felt that something was wrong."

Picking up the cup on the table and taking a look, Su Yin put it back in its place.

"It's passive."

"The cup has passed? Observe so closely? ”

Without responding to Zhou Mingshi's words, Su Yin searched in the room.

In bed, there is no one; Under the bed, there was no one; On the eaves, there is no one; So cabinet juice ...

With her right hand gripping the hilt of her sword, she walked heartily towards the cabinet.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yin opened the cabinet suddenly.

Empty!

The next second, she drew her sword and stabbed it to her side.

was stabbed in the abdomen by Su Yin's sword, and the person outside the window snorted and began to struggle.

He wanted to pull Su Yin and fall downstairs together, but Zhou Mingshi suddenly came over and pushed the person very hard.

Glancing at Zhou Mingshi in surprise, Su Yin asked, "You're not afraid?" ”

"To be afraid, but what is the use of being afraid? You can only hypnotize yourself, it's just a game. ”

Glancing out of the window with palpitations, Zhou Mingshi asked, "By the way, when did you find out that guy was outside the window?" ”

"I noticed when I first entered the door that I was just doing so much to make people outside let their guard down."

After comparing the distance from the room to the ground, Su Yin directly lifted Zhou Mingshi up.

said "Hold on", she jumped onto the Lin with Zhou Mingshi.

"I'm rubbing! You almost scared the hell out of me! ”

Holding the old tree on the side with his right hand, Zhou Mingshi's legs trembled a little.

Suppressing the fear, he couldn't help but complain: "Jumping down at this height is like no one, your golden finger is too big!" ”

"Now is not the time to complain about this, first find the person who fell down just now."

After looking around the neighborhood, the two only found a trace of blood, and they didn't see the guy before.

Frowning tightly, Su Yin muttered, "Did that guy slip away or was he taken away just now?" It wouldn't be easy to have his accomplices here! ”

"What do we do now?"

"You ask me, who do I ask."

Then, Su Yin lifted Zhou Mingshi up again.

With a tiptoe, she left the inn directly over the wall.

was mentioned by Su Yin twice, Zhou Mingshi's face became even more ugly, "Can you say hello in advance next time?" ”

"I try."

“？？？”

Isn't it just to say hello, and I try this way?

Walking aimlessly on the street, Su Yin discussed with Zhou Mingshi about the assassination of the inn.

"You, did we plan the person we did just now when we came to town, or did we improvise?"

"It doesn't look like it's improvised. If so, then there is no doubt that the inn was a black shop just now. ”

"Where are you going?"

"I don't know, follow you?"

"I don't know what you're doing in front of you?"

“……”

Afraid that someone would follow them, Su Yin took Zhou Mingshi and slipped into an alley with a left turn.

In the next second, she regained her appearance for herself and Zhou Mingshi.

After the disguise was over, the two walked towards the depths of the alley.

When the two of them came to the end of the alley, they were shocked by the scene over there.

Those people...... The skinny ones are almost no longer human.

There are even a lot of hands and feet that are deformed, and they look strange and terrible at night.

Seeing someone walking towards them, the teenagers at the end of the alley suddenly bowed like frightened cats.

There were bursts of roars from their mouths, and they raised their "claws" at Su Yin and Zhou Mingshi.

……

A moment later, the teenagers fell on top of the lin, trapped by Su Yin.

"Can you communicate with people?"

Seeing Ming Huang shaking the blade, several teenagers were stupefied.

One of them replied tremblingly, "Yes...... OK. ”

"Since you can, then I'll ask, and you can answer."

"Huh?" The young man was stunned, his eyes were a little confused, "Didn't you come to arrest us back?" ”

"Arrest you? What do I do with my baby? I don't want to be taken away by the gendarmerie. ”

After knowing that Su Yin was not the one who came to arrest them, several teenagers breathed a sigh of relief.

Without the slightest concealment, they told Su Yin exactly what they knew.

These guys were originally street children, but they were later adopted.

I thought that after being adopted, I would be able to usher in a normal life, but I didn't expect that this was the beginning of their nightmare.

Their "father" would always make them take all kinds of medicines, and even beat and scolded them at every turn.

In addition to them, there are still many test bodies on the "father's" side that have not escaped......

"Medicine? What kind of medicine did that person make you take? ”

"I don't know, listening to it can prolong people's lives." One of the teenagers replied.

"That's not right!" Another person corrected: "It's obviously an elixir of immortality!" But it is still in the test and has not been refined. ”

After sorting out the words of the teenagers, Su Yin sorted out a general thought.

There are people in this town refining elixir, and in order to test the elixir, he has captured many street children and sent them back.

The incident encountered in the inn may have something to do with this.

It's an extremely xenophobic town, and they don't welcome strangers to enter.

To be precise, I don't want to be found out what I'm doing underneath.

No wonder the people who asked before were so unknown, and they didn't dare to report to the court or anything like that.

Food is one thing, medicine is also another.

Su Yin had also been to the fields before, and the low grain yield may be related to the salinization of the land.

The ancients had no way to solve this matter, so they could only let it go.

Or, they can't solve it and don't want to solve it.

The food problem should have been just a cover, a cover to divert the attention of the people of the imperial court.

As long as the people of the imperial court are all focused on the food issue, are they afraid that they will have time to investigate the elixir?
