Chapter 154

"No problem," didn't let the innkeeper wait any longer, a tall and thin man standing in the middle of the eight people had an evil look in his eyes, and then took his purse from his waist and handed it to the innkeeper, "There are forty pieces of jade in it, take the trouble to count them." ”

After the tall and thin man finished speaking, one of the people next to him hurriedly smiled and took out two pieces of jade from his sleeve and handed them to the innkeeper, "A total of forty-two." ”

After taking the two things, the innkeeper carefully counted them. "No problem, you can go," and when the number was confirmed, the innkeeper motioned for the eight to leave.

"Don't worry, we still want to stay a little longer, Your Excellency won't mind, right?!" the tall and thin man just now replied with a smile on his face, and then suddenly grabbed the innkeeper's hand and gestured with his eyes.

In the distance, Lin Xuanzhong didn't understand the tall and thin man's actions, but felt that this person's eyes were becoming more and more disgusting. Instead of getting angry when the other man shook his hand, the guy smiled at the tall and thin man.

"It's okay, as long as you don't delay the inn business, you can stay here for as long as you want," smiling lightly at the eight people, the innkeeper turned around and asked the other five, "Where is your jade?"

"We don't have that much jade, I wonder if we can be accommodating?" The man at the head asked, although his face was ugly, but he still asked cheekily.

"How much jade do you have?"

"Ten pieces. ”

"Haha......"

"Hahaha......"

All of a sudden, everyone in the inn laughed, as if they had heard a very funny joke, and Lin Xuanzhong, who was still on the stairs, was stimulated by those laughter and turned red. Although he also felt that the man was talking about a dream, Lin Xuanzhong didn't think there was anything funny, so he didn't understand how those onlookers could laugh at this moment.

After a long time, the laughter gradually stopped, and many people in the inn looked at the five people coldly, wanting to see how they solved the problem in front of them.

"Impossible," said the innkeeper with a cold face under the gaze of everyone, and said to the five men with great displeasure, "If you still have companions in the city, you can send one to seek help; ”

Originally, when the innkeeper reported the total number, the faces of the five people were already very ugly, but now they saw that there was no possibility of accommodation at all, and the innkeeper's words were like sentencing them, and their faces suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Senior brother, Master, they may have already arrived in the city, why don't you go out and try your luck?" It was the youngest woman who spoke, her autumn eyes were condensed, her skin was like condensed fat, her posture was better than Red Tears, and she looked about the same age as Red Tears. Even if she looks a little embarrassed at this time, it is difficult to hide this woman's moving face when she is dressed ordinarily.

"Little junior sister, let's all stay, you go to the master and them. When the man in front heard the woman's proposal, he immediately turned around and explained.

"Senior brother, let's go, the little junior sister is not familiar with this place at all, and she may encounter danger when she is alone. Some heroic female voices came, and Lin Xuanzhong's gaze fell on the face of another woman. Despite her ugly complexion, the woman's eyes were unusually calm.

"I don't care which of you goes, after three days you don't see anyone, and everyone else loses their personal freedom. Seeing a few people rambling and delaying time, the innkeeper said impatiently: "If we delay our business again, we will have to add money." ”

I don't know how an ordinary guy dares to talk to several martial cultivators whose strength is stronger than himself like this, the more Lin Xuanzhong looks, the more puzzled he feels.

"But Master, they ......" The man in front of him heard the reminder of another junior sister, and couldn't help but think that it was really uneasy to let his little junior sister leave alone, and when he thought about their master's situation, this person was even more hesitant.

In fact, as Lin Xuanzhong had guessed at the beginning, the few of them were indeed members of a mercenary team, and they also set off from that post station like Lin Xuanzhong.

Ten days earlier, their party had been attacked by bandits in the mountains, and they had been at a disadvantage in the heat of battle. But fighting, fighting, a group of fierce beasts suddenly rushed from the south. In the panic, everyone stopped and fled in all directions. In the end, the five of them were lucky enough to escape the bandits' tracking after their master and many companions stopped them.

After that, because they fled south for dozens of miles in a row, they didn't dare to go back and didn't dare to stay in the mountains, and finally decided to try their luck in the city that never sleeps, to see if they could meet their companions who had escaped at the beginning.

It's a pity that the place where they were attacked was in the central area between the city that never sleeps and the post station, and even if their master and companions can escape in the end, they may not escape in the direction of the city that never sleeps, so it is very difficult to meet their companions. Letting a person go out to look for it also means letting this person escape, because the rest of the people know that it is difficult for them to meet people from the original mercenary team in the city. They had been outside the city all day, but for three days they had found nothing.

On the other hand, they originally agreed to compensate, and several people still felt that they should not need much jade, but what they didn't expect was that even the most ordinary tables and chairs were extremely expensive, not to mention the wine and food, the prices were more than two or three times more expensive than the prices on their side.

Knowing that the other party's asking price is unreasonable, he also knows that there is no room for negotiation at all. And about some characteristics of the city that never sleeps, they have long heard that they don't dare to make trouble in the inn, otherwise they will only pay a greater price.

After thinking about it and failing to think of a suitable solution, the five of them still had bitter faces, looking sympathetic. But looking at the people in the inn, most of them just have the intention of watching the excitement, how can they have half sympathy.

When the five people didn't know what to do, Lin Xuanzhong found that the people who were originally drinking and eating food did not stop, and the people who were originally standing continued to watch and did not mean to help, and the eight people were waiting for the five people to decide what to do with a smile on their faces. The atmosphere in the hall was a little serious, and Lin Xuanzhong vaguely felt that something was wrong, I was afraid that it would be difficult to solve the matter of the five people smoothly.

"This brother, as long as your two junior sisters are willing to drink with us, our fees will be paid by us, and we can even give you some money to be entangled!" It was the tall and thin man with evil eyes who spoke before, and he smiled at this time, and while talking to the man, he didn't forget to look the two women up and down.

The little girl, who was called the little junior sister by others, was a little frightened under the strange gaze of the tall and thin man, and unconsciously hid behind the other companions. And the slightly older woman next to her, Rao, has a resolute personality, and she doesn't dare to meet the thin and tall man's gaze at this moment.

After the tall and thin man finally stated his purpose, several men next to him were also smiling, and their expressions were light, and they followed the tall and thin man to look at the two women.

"Hmph, even if we go to work as miners and coolies, we won't take your kindness. "It's still as heroic as before, and the woman in front of her is different from the woman she has met before, so Lin Xuanzhong is very concerned about the woman's performance.

"Girl, you must not do it, being a miner is a sin, how can you be as happy as being with us?" This time it was a companion of the tall and thin man who spoke, and he spoke in a rough voice, but he spoke quite emotionally, and the result was very funny.

"Despicable," think about it, it was precisely because the other party bullied his junior sister that it caused a dispute between the two sides, which led to the current unjustified disaster. A few senior brothers, a trace of anger flashed on the face of the man in front, and he said coldly to the eight people: "You guys deliberately embarrass our senior brothers and sisters, and you want our senior brothers and sisters to pray for you, it's just wishful thinking. When he said this, this man gritted his teeth, obviously extremely resentful of the eight people, but he was helpless.

"We're just kind enough to think about your two junior sisters, it's not as safe to let them be miners as with us, I think my brother might as well think about it first. In order to achieve the goal, the eight people are also blatantly soft and hard.

"Senior sister, don't worry, senior brother, I will definitely protect you. As a mercenary, that man was always a bloody person, and he did not hesitate to stand up and speak for his junior sister at critical moments.

The two male junior brothers behind him looked hesitant, as if their inner thoughts were not as firm as their senior brothers, but the two of them had feelings for their two junior sisters after all, and they did not fall into the well at a critical time, but just looked at them with a scared face.

"Hmph", chuckled, and the evil man before said with a smile at the moment: "It's really a toast and don't eat and drink, since that's the case, you can do it yourself." After speaking, this person's expression turned cold, and turned to look at the inn guy who had not spoken all this time, and motioned for the other party to continue.

"If you can't get the spirit stone and can't find anyone to help, then you can only act according to the rules of our inn," I saw the guy nod, then turned to the five and said, "In the next three months, the five of you will obey all the arrangements of our inn." ”

There is no emotion at all, the indifference shown by the inn guys at this moment is in great contrast to when he greeted guests before, Lin Xuanzhong still can't understand how a martial artist who is so ordinary that he can only be an inn buddy can have such a majestic side, and he simply doesn't take those five people in his eyes.

In fact, Lin Xuanzhong didn't know anything, they were just relying on the support of the inn behind them, and the two sides of the trouble were obviously ordinary martial cultivators, so they didn't even have to come forward as the shopkeeper of the inn. Of course, just the inn itself can't give the inn guy such a big power, in the final analysis, everything is related to the system of the city that never sleeps, it can be said that an inn is one end of a huge power system, and there must be other forces behind it, so although the inn is small, it is not an ordinary martial artist who can provoke.
