After leaving Liangcheng, it was soon Minyang Pass, but because the spices could not withstand the toss, the caravan was only there in the evening, and they were afraid of rain at night, so the group rested at the Datong Inn.

In order to hurry tomorrow, the dart masters and executioners of the Tongxing Dart Bureau went to the guest room on the second floor early to rest, and Cheng Yan wanted to invite them to dinner in the lobby on the first floor, but was stopped by Tan Bai.

He asked the guy to serve some delicious side dishes, asked for a pot of hot wine, and said lightly: "They always eat what they bring, which is convenient and safe, and they are not afraid of being poisoned." ”

Cheng Yan took a sip of the spirited wine, only to feel that the fatigue of rushing all day was gone, and he picked up the wine jug and poured another glass without moving: "Are you so cautious?" ”

Tan Bai chuckled: "It's a good thing to be cautious, as the saying goes, if you walk by the river, you will definitely get your feet wet, not to mention these experienced dart masters, we can learn from them." ”

Cheng Yan responded lightly, and looked up at the location of the guest room on the second floor, and the eyes that had always been teary-stained were rarely clear, but what came out of them was calm and clear.

"Yes, walking by the river will get your feet wet."

Cheng Yan turned his head and said with deep eyes: "But I have heard two sentences." After a pause, he said meaningfully, "Lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot, stealing chickens and failing to do it, but eating rice." ”

Tan Bai was stunned for a moment, and didn't know how to continue talking, but fortunately, the guy served the meal at this time, begged for some rewards and went to work for other things, and the embarrassment was instantly resolved.

Tan Bai doesn't like meat, looked at Cheng Yan who was eating meat on the other side, and chuckled guiltily: "If it weren't for taking care of my physical strength, we might be able to rush to Minyang Pass tonight." ”

Cheng Yan was hungry, and he was happy to eat, so he shook his head when he heard the words: "It's okay." ”

Tan Bai had been bumpy on the horse for a day, tired of the tasteless food, and just watched him eat.

Cheng Yan frowned and said: "Mingyu, you can't do this, your physical strength is not good, if you don't eat well tonight, you will be more affected tomorrow, hurry up and eat well." ”

Tan Bai was helpless: "I really can't eat it." ”

Cheng Yan deliberately sneered: "You give me food, I am ordering you to eat as a young master." ”

Tan Bai laughed dumbly, so he had to pick up the chopsticks to eat a few bites, the two talked and laughed, and soon ran out of plates for a meal, drank the last two glasses of wine, and went back to their rooms to sleep.

Closing the door of the guest room, Cheng Yan did not strip to bed, he walked to the window and looked, except for the fluttering flags and two red lanterns, the outside of the inn was indeed empty.

It's just a few carts of spices, but they are not in his line of sight.

I didn't send a few dart masters to take turns keeping vigil.

Cheng Yan closed the window sash and said coldly: "It's really ridiculous." ”

He blew out the candles on the table, lay down on the bed with his eyes fixed on the roof, took out a golden pocket watch from a Western seller from his bosom, put it to his ear, and said nothing.

Tick Tick Tick ......

The stars in the dark are getting thicker and thicker.

I don't know how long it took, only to hear a crisp click in my ears, Cheng Yan's slightly narrowed eyes opened suddenly, he got up and lit a candle, pushed open the door of the guest room, and turned his head to the right.

In the corridor on the second floor, the door to the guest room next door also opened.

He and the leader of the dart master on this trip, named Dong Meng, happened to look at each other, the man was not shocked, and while walking towards the stairs, he said coldly: "Why doesn't Young Master Zongyu sleep yet?" ”

Cheng Yan leaned on the wooden railing and chuckled: "I'm hungry in the middle of the night, ask the guy to bring some food." Stopped, "Master Dong, where are you going?" ”

Dong Meng had already gone down the stairs, so his voice was far away: "Go put some water and take a look at the goods by the way." ”

"Thank you for your hard work."

After Cheng Yan finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the guest room.

And Dong Meng peed back, and when he saw the sleepy-eyed guy entering Cheng Yan's room with food, he looked at it for a few seconds, and then frowned and went into the next door.

Dong Wu, who was in the same room, didn't sleep either, and hugged his arms in front of the window: "Is that kid still awake?" ”

Dong Meng closed the door and nodded: "Yes, I said that I was hungry again." ”

Dong Wu stood up impatiently: "The third brother didn't come with him this time, didn't he say that kid knew kung fu last time, and threw him off the bridge with his bare hands, how can this ...... It's a fucking rice bucket, and I have to eat a few more meals at night. ”

Dong Meng sat down, his ears erected, and he held the cup of hot tea that had just been poured hard, and he was not too hot, and said coldly: "The third child missed at that time, and he didn't come this time to avoid suspicion, so as not to recognize Cheng Yan, but we are not bad for a while." ”

Dong Wu also showed a deep smile: "Okay, let him be a full ghost." ”

---------

I don't know how long it took, until the cup of hot tea in Dong Meng's hand was cold, he asked unhurriedly, "Is the light in the kid's room out?" ”

Dong Wu leaned out of the window here, nodded and said, "It's out." ”

With that, he turned around and was about to go out.

Dong Meng stopped him, Dong Wu said unhappily: "Big brother, what are you doing, brother, I will go and break his neck, and we can go back to the second master to get back to life." ”

"Don't worry."

Dong Meng leaned against the wall over there, and after confirming Cheng Yan's breathing, he said: "Didn't the third child say, that kid will do a little kung fu, and if he can throw him down from Langqiao, he must have a foundation." ”

Dong Wu didn't care at all: "Third brother, that's a momentary negligence, isn't this kid a little stronger." patted his chest, "My brother killed him, it's still a matter of getting caught." ”

"Nope."

Dong Meng said solemnly: "Big brother, you stay here, take a look at Tan Bai by the way, I don't know if his father told him about it, don't be alarmed." ”

Dong Wu couldn't screw it, so he had to do it.

And Dong Meng went out of the corridor, went to the door of Cheng Yan's guest room, listened carefully, and then carefully pushed open the door and walked in.

Although there is moonlight, but the room is still about to reach out and lose his fingers, Dong Meng looked at the person in the quilt on the bed, and reached out to slowly open it, but it was shocking!

It's not Cheng Yan!

It's the inn guy!

At this moment, he was tied to the bed by Wuhuada, and began to whimper and struggle after seeing Dong Meng.

"Ah!!h

At the same time, Dong Wu's terrible screams came from the next room, and Dong Meng's blood was cold, and he swept over like a wind to take a look, and found that Dong Wu's left eye was pierced with a dart.

Dong Wu's clothes in front of him were blood-red, and the shout woke up all the people in the inn, and when he saw Dong Meng coming back, he pointed to the open window viciously: "That kid...... Run! ”

Dong Meng secretly said that it was not good, and he couldn't understand how the matter was exposed, so he happened to see that the sixth and seventh children also rushed over, and hurriedly asked, "What about Tan Bai?" ”

Dong Liu gritted his teeth and said: "I'm dizzy, I'm afraid I was drugged by Cheng Yan!" ”

Dong Qi slapped his forehead angrily: "It's broken, it's broken!" ”

"Bad something!"

Dong Meng red-eyed and said, "Old Seven, you stay and take care of your fifth brother!" Sixth, come with me to chase that bunny! He added, "I have to kill him alive!" ”

After that, he jumped out of the window, and Dong Liu also followed.

The two landed steadily, but they didn't know which direction Cheng Yan fled to, only that he was running on horseback, so Dong Meng shouted: "I'll go to the left!" You go to the right with the executioner! Just see the corpse! ”

Dong Liu gritted his teeth: "Okay!" ”
