Chapter 169: Hotel Hospitality
It was hard for Li Zhi to imagine that there would be such a fierce poison in the world, but when it appeared, no matter how much he deceived himself, it was meaningless.
He shuddered, he showed strong resistance to the carrying of this small bag, but under the pressure of himself, he still hung it around his waist.
It is in the action of bowing the head step by step that fear shows its own sense of existence.
Especially since the long creature still writhed from time to time, creating some raised surfaces on the surface of the sacs.
He then tried to rummage through the man in black for more clues or objects.
[Reconnaissance 73/65]
In the end, he only found a blue-green ball with a diameter as long as a fingernail, and two gray-white balls that were elastic when pinched.
[Medicine 55/20]
He didn't find anything similar in his memory, it was like some kind of personal artifact, maybe it had some strange effects, but until he figured out their effects, Li Zhi didn't plan to use them rashly, so as not to endanger himself.
Other than that, there were no other items available on the man in black, and similarly, Li Zhi had no way of knowing who the person behind the scenes was, but fortunately, at least he knew that he was going to the tavern.
After stepping out of the woods, the distant sun had completely set below the horizon, leaving only a few inches of red glow, Li Zhi glanced back behind him.
The woods seemed to be hidden in the night, and the castle in the distance had been lit up, and it was very dazzling in the dark night that covered half of the sky.
Even the guards running on the battlements, they moved with torches, and in the eyes of Li Zhi, who was separated by a forest, they all looked orderly.
The rest of the time, he was not ready to go home, he planned to go to the tavern first to see if he could find any clues.
On the way to the tavern, the air was a little dreary, as if a large hand was pressing against his chest.
There is also an unusual heat, and it is not yet a summer night, and the weather has not yet broken free from the gentle warmth of spring, so how can it feel hot?
What's more, the plains are empty, mostly yellow sand and muddy land, and the temperature difference between day and night should be very large, and before the summer, the surface temperature should be between a few degrees below zero to a few degrees.
And now the temperature must be in the twenties, and there is no cold in normal times.
A funny joke flashed in Li Zhi's mind - this can't be the mastermind behind the scenes who wants to harm himself, right?
Licking his dry and flaky lips, he threw out the idea that he didn't have to think of, but there was still a slight ominous omen in his heart, and he quickened his steps.
The red glow slowly dissipated in the sky, replaced by a black curtain.
It's getting closer.
Li Zhi saw a wooden door embedded in the ground, which was probably the house on the edge of the town.
There is a road next to the wooden plank - it is exactly what Lu Xun said, the road becomes when there are more people walking.
I have stepped on different shades of footprints during the day, and some outlines can still be faintly seen at night.
Not far from the tavern into town, some of the planks leaked some light, and the people who lived on this side, or who opened the shop on this side, were a handful of people who were doing better among the common people.
The innkeeper seems to have made some kind of deal with the castle's butler, and some of the better quality liquor was shipped into the castle at a higher or lower price, leaving only one kind of wine for the commoners or wanderers in the tavern - a low-grade ale full of urine.
Even so, the tavern is still lit day and night.
Curfews simply don't allow people to move outside at night, and it's okay to stay inside.
Therefore, the hotel is a casino without a name.
Anyone in town who has a little money likes to spend a wonderful night in a hotel.
It's not hard to find the location of a hotel in the dark.
There are very few buildings on the surface, and in order to attract the attention of others, ordinary merchants usually plant a flag above their heads to attract customers.
The flag at the door of the hotel was the tallest, and every night, the owner of the hotel didn't know what kind of business it was for, so he actually boiled a pot of wine in front of the wooden plank.
It is said that it is for a fragrance that floats thousands of miles and makes a fortune.
It is true that many people have been gluttonous all night because of the smell of wine, and they come to the hotel to be fat sheep when the sun just rises.
Li Zhida saw the pot from afar, and soon after the fire was lit, the fragrance had not yet dispersed.
The aroma of this wine is not like ale wine, at least there is no urine smell, but there is a fragrance, which sticks to the nasal membrane like oil, and it will not disperse for a long time after taking a sip.
I don't know why the hotel owner doesn't take this wine out and sell it.
After walking a short distance along the light, the hotel door, the wooden door that sealed the underground hotel, was suddenly opened.
Two strong men with five big and three thick men came out with a young man who looked skinny.
The young man looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and his voice could be heard in the distance:
"Wait! I'll just ask him a few more questions! He knows for sure ......"
Before the words came out, the two people who were holding him shook it together, threw it directly to the ground, and rolled it two or three times.
The words that I was going to say were also stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say it half-loudly, so I could only hold my stomach and hum in pain.
And because the two strong men were too far apart, Li Zhi couldn't see clearly what their eyes should be like when they looked at the young man, but they could probably see their attitude when they said a word of cheapness and a sentence of getting out.
The young man's forehead was covered with cold sweat, obviously painful.
Li Zhi approached to see his whole picture with the help of the fire burning in the hotel.
Skinny and skinny is the most appropriate description of this young man, so that fall should have directly injured the bones, without the buffer of flesh and blood, the pain is the most direct.
"Let's see, who's coming again?"
Unlike the attitude towards young people, as early as after his father showed his face in front of the lord, the status of his family immediately rose.
The hotel has its own news channel, so ...... The son of the loyal dog family was favored in front of the second young master, and this information came out quickly.
These so-called "security guards" are very real, if you are rich and famous, I will be good to you, otherwise please leave.
Li Zhi didn't answer, but glanced at the young man's face, not to say clean, from his forehead to his right cheek was covered with dark yellow stains, which could be mud or something even more dirty.
He may be at the bottom of this deformed society...... Even excluded classes.
Like the untouchable in the Indian caste system.
"Don't let him stain the eyes of our future listeners!" The two of them are not considered to be employed personnel, but are characters between idleness and the underworld.
They help the hotel owner with some unsightly or dirty hands, and in some places, the hotel owner helps out with a convenient and pocket money.
Some leaked news often passes through their mouths first.
Now in this slightly flattering tone, Li Zhi knew with his toes that the news had been deliberately leaked by someone.
