Chapter 42: Hate to the Bone
After Gao Rui finished speaking, the four of them went upstairs and closed the door tightly.
"I said, young master, I think you're too cautious. How can there be a reason why we are not told to eat when we prepare a meal? Xu Hui muttered with a reluctant expression.
"The young master must have a point in saying this, and I also feel that this inn is a little strange." Ah Lian said to Xu Hui, and Tao'er also nodded in agreement.
Gao Rui sat quietly on the chair and slowly analyzed: "First of all, the house in this inn is in disrepair and dilapidated, why are there so many guests? If business is so prosperous, why doesn't the innkeeper fix the house? Besides, why are all the more than a dozen rooms on this upstairs empty, are all the guests leaving after eating? What made me most suspicious was the food at the inn, and when I was in the lobby, I made a point of observing the guests at the other tables. These people don't seem to order anything, and even some tables don't order at all, just drinking and guessing together. It is said that good wine goes well with good food, how can you drink this dry wine? ”
"When the young master said this, I also thought that the shopkeeper was stout and strong, like a practitioner. Could it be that this is a black shop. Listening to Gao Rui's words, Xu Hui also became cautious.
"Yes, it's really good. In my guess, this is a long-abandoned inn, and these people don't know how to cook at all, and the food is already prepared. Everyone in the store should have a strange idea, it should be some bandits and robbers, in this deserted village, taking advantage of the night to make money and kill people. Gao Rui was a little happy when he saw Xu Hui open his mind, and there was a little melancholy between his eyebrows, "But there is only one point, but I can't figure it out, this group of people seems to have been premeditated, as if they knew that we would come here." I wonder if we've fallen into a trap. ”
"So what are we waiting for, and we're going to sneak out from behind the window now." Xu Hui foresaw danger, so he thought of breaking the window and escaping.
"It's not like I haven't thought about it. I think that if that group of people had planned it and ran out now, I'm afraid they would have laid an ambush long ago. We waited until late at night, and if there was no movement, we quietly ran out. ”
Gao Rui was right, but this inn was a black shop. But he didn't expect that this group of people was the brocade guards sent by his younger brother Gao Qi. That day, Gao Qi knew what had happened, and he wanted to find Gao Rui's theory. But I searched through the Yanwang Mansion, but I didn't find Gao Rui's figure, and even Xu Hui was gone. Gao Qi had no clue, and in his anxiety, he found the maid Qingzhu, and on weekdays, only Qingzhu and Gao Rui were the closest to the people in the house. Gao Rui doesn't follow his subordinates on weekdays, and after having Peach, he acts more secretively. Gao Qi took a lot of money to find Qingzhu, and when Qingzhu saw the silver of the white flowers, he saw that the money was open, and 1510 told Gao Qi everything she knew. In fact, she doesn't know much, only that Gao Rui recently rescued a dumb girl out of nowhere, and in order to treat her, he took Xu Hui and them to Penglai Immortal Mountain. Gao Qi was also very resentful when he heard it, I don't know when Gao Rui had an extra woman by his side, since he had this woman, Gao Rui's ambition was slowly exposed. It's no longer the honest and honest nerd he remembers. Although Gao Qi hated Gao Rui to the core, he couldn't wait to kill Gao Rui immediately. But after all, the two of them are brothers, and they can't say which side of the Yan King is dead.
"I want to see what kind of sacredness this 'dumb girl' is, and she has charmed my stupid eldest brother!" Gao Qi's sentence was something in his words, and there was a hint of insidiousness in his words.
