Chapter 173: No offense
At night, quiet as water, a full moon hangs high in the sky, and the glittering light is sprinkled in all directions, adding a hazy mystery to this quiet night.
In a small shop in the wilderness, by the moonlight, you can vaguely see the tables and floors in the lobby, and there are wine jars lying everywhere, which is a mess.
The smell of wine was still in the air, but the entire lobby was empty.
In the upstairs guest room, there were three or two hearty snoring sounds from time to time, indicating that the owner of the room was sleeping soundly at the moment.
"Are you all asleep?"
In the kitchen, a dim oil lamp was lit, and the flames the size of beans were beating restlessly in the air, making the already dimly lit kitchen even brighter and darker for a while, making people barely able to see.
The flickering light shone on the shopkeeper's face, making his already hideous face even more terrifying at the moment.
The cunning eyes like a rat looked even more brilliant in the dim light.
"Don't worry! One by one, they slept like dead pigs, and they had long been unconscious. ”
The shopkeeper patted his chest and said with great assurance.
He didn't expect that the medicine in the shopkeeper was really good, and now the gang of people are sleeping like dead pigs, and it is estimated that Lei will not wake up.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled slyly, then walked to the back door of the kitchen, and learned two bird calls of "coo, coo" outside.
Immediately, three more men in black stepped into the kitchen in the moonlight.
"Can you do it?"
One of them asked.
"The old rule, if you lose your breath, you will be thrown into the wilderness to feed the wolves."
The shopkeeper said in a deep voice, the only advantage of his medicine is that the medicine is ruthless enough, once the effect of the medicine occurs, it is really thunder that can't wake up.
But the disadvantage is that the effect of the drug is relatively slow, so they will drug those people's meals, so that they don't have a seizure until midnight.
Of course, there is also a disadvantage that the duration of the effect is too short, so they have to take advantage of the fact that those people are now in the onset of the effect and solve all of them in one go.
Therefore, when he heard that the shopkeeper said that the group of people had slept soundly, he immediately called these helpers of his own without delay.
During the day, he was afraid that those people would see what was going on, after all, they were dealing with some people in the rivers and lakes.
Those people have been running around in the rivers and lakes all year round, and their intuition is sharper than ordinary people, so during the day, he didn't dare to leave too many people in the store, for fear of being discovered.
This allowed the men to hide nearby, and come out again at night when he sent out the code.
A few people understood, so they stopped talking, and they all raised the knives in their hands and walked into the guest room upstairs.
Five people, exactly five rooms, a few people as if agreed in advance, a very tacit understanding of one person into a room.
Because they knew that the people in the house were sleeping like dead pigs at the moment, they were not as careful as thieves.
Instead, it was as casual as entering and exiting his own room in his own home, and he walked in with a big grin.
Dian Xiaoer thought about the powerful aura of the mysterious man wearing a mask during the day, afraid that the medicine would not have such a great effect on him, afraid that he would wake up soon and make trouble, thinking that he had to solve that person as soon as possible.
So without saying a word, he rushed into the room at the end of the left with his knife, while the others each entered the other four rooms.
But when they entered the house with their knives raised, and before they could get close to the bed, they suddenly heard a loud noise outside the house.
Several people were shocked in their hearts, and they didn't have time to think about it, and they didn't have time to pay attention to the people in the house who slept like dead pigs.
One by one, they were vigilant with knives, turned around and rushed out of the house.
When they came outside, the first thing that caught their eyes was the embarrassed body of the shopkeeper, who was lying downstairs at the moment, his limbs curled up together in pain.
There was no doubt that the loud noise they had just heard was the sound of the shopkeeper's body smashing on the ground.
Several people couldn't help frowning, except for their own people, the rest of the people here were not all recruited, who would be so ruthless to the shopkeeper.
The four of them all looked at the room at the end of the left where the shopkeeper had just rushed in.
I saw that at the door of the guest room, there was a man in white clothes with a fluttering white coat, and the man was wearing a wolf face mask on his face, so that people could not see his face, and naturally they could not see the expression on his face at the moment.
It's just that the cold aura emanating from Zhou's body, even if it is a few feet away, can't help but make people feel frightened.
People with such a powerful aura can't help but have a sense of fear in the hearts of these people.
But in line with the fact that this is their own territory after all, and in the middle of the rivers and lakes, if they want to go smoothly in the future, it is better to offend people less, and a few people still muster up a little bit of toughness.
"This brother, our brother didn't intend to offend you today, you don't think it's as good as this, you take your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, our well water does not interfere with the river water, how about it?"
In order to show his sincerity, the shopkeeper put away the knife in his hand and said to the man in a consultative tone.
His powerful medicinal use on this person actually didn't have the slightest effect, which had to make the shopkeeper vigilant, and the person in front of him could not be underestimated.
"No offense?"
The cold and frosty tone seemed to have an invisible oppressive force pressing on people's hearts, making people a little breathless.
"Is this your hospitality, what you call an unintentional offense?"
Chu Xiuyan clasped his hands and glanced at the group of people in front of him with a deep cold eye.
"This ......"
The thief was caught by others, and the shopkeeper is difficult to distinguish even if there are hundreds of mouths! I didn't know what to say for a while.
"This brother, you see that we didn't hurt you, and our brother, because he didn't intend to offend you, was beaten half to death by you, how about we even if we are tied? Don't meddle in tonight's business. ”
Another man in black looked at Chu Xiuyan and said very boldly, pushing the responsibility of offending Chu Xiuyan onto the shopkeeper.
Anyway, when he looked at the shop's junior, it was estimated that he would be dying.
When he first saw him, he was still dying in pain, but now, he glanced at the shopkeeper lying downstairs, who was lying motionless at the moment, completely indistinguishable from a dead man.
The tip of the black-clothed man's nose snorted lightly, and he was very disdainful of the death of the shopkeeper.
If you want to blame him for this, he can only blame himself, he crossed the threshold of Hades by mistake, but before he dies, he can bear this responsibility for them again, which can be regarded as his merit.
