I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, the three rooms that Lu Yifan and they asked for were actually the deepest rooms on the third floor, next to half the sky. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIt's a little bit out of the way from the other rooms, and it's quieter.

Late at night, the whole Golden Gate Station is quiet, and the lobby has lost the noise of the day, but there are two guys curled up in the chairs in front of the counter shaking their heads and dozing off, and at this moment there is only a dim candle burning on the counter in the huge lobby, except for the little light near the counter, the rest of the lobby is dark, and the candlelight is better than nothing. The torrential rain at Kinmen Pass never stopped, until the gate of the post house was closed at this moment, but the raging storm could still be heard outside.

Suddenly, there was a sound of a rope from far to near upstairs, and then I saw seven or eight sneaky black shadows flashing on the stairs, although these people had tried their best to lighten their steps, but when their feet stepped on the dilapidated wooden staircase, the loose planks of the staircase still inevitably made a "squeak" If it weren't for the torrential rain outside that drowned out the sound of the stairs, I am afraid that someone would have been woken up by them, you must know that the inn is full of guests at this moment, and no one can guarantee that there are first-class masters hidden among these guests.

"Shhhhh Although these people all wore black scarves on their faces, they could still guess the identity of this person through the deep whisper of the person at the head, who was the ninth master who had a quarrel with Lu Yifan in the post station today. And the group of people who followed behind Jiu Ye were undoubtedly his subordinates.

The Ninth Master led people cautiously through the lobby to the door, and he deliberately glanced at the two guys who were napping in their chairs. At this moment, the two guys were snoring thickly, and they seemed to be sleeping soundly, and they didn't notice the Ninth Master at all. The ninth master put his heart down, and then he ordered one of his subordinates to pull the door latch open, and then opened the door a thin slit, and the ninth master and his party came out flexibly, and after going out, the door was covered again, and he didn't say more than half a word from beginning to end.

And the most interesting thing is that just after Jiu Ye and the others went out, the two guys who were originally curled up in the chair and sleeping opened their eyes in unison, neither of them did not make much movement, and still maintained the "sleeping position" just now, but the eyelids opened a slit slightly and looked at the door, and then the two guys couldn't help but glance at each other, with a strange look in their eyes. In fact, this kind of thing is too much for the guys in the post station, so it has long been strange, and Half the Sky has also taught them that they don't have to worry about this kind of thing, as long as it does not involve the property of the post station, they will treat it as if they have not seen it, and the so-called more thing is better than less is probably this truth.

"Click!"

Not long after the two men opened their eyes, a crisp sound of footsteps came down from the stairs, and the person who came did not seem to deliberately hide himself and lowered his voice, but walked quite briskly

。 Hearing this footsteps, the two men hurriedly closed their eyes again, and a sound of sleeping 'snoring' came from their mouths and noses again.

After a while, a white-robed jade building appeared on the stairs, and I saw him first glance at the two guys who were pretending to be asleep, and then the corners of his mouth raised a slight inexplicable smile, and then he walked straight to the door, and he actually plugged the door latch again from the inside. In other words, if Jiu Ye and the others want to go back to the post station again, they can only smash the door or open the window, and in order to prevent some guests from evading the store money, all the windows are sealed with copper bars, if you want a person to pass through the window, you must tear down the copper bars outside the window, which is bound to make a lot of noise to attract the attention of others, which is why Jiu Ye wants to take people to risk passing through the lobby.

After locking the latch, Yulou dusted his hands quite satisfied, and then walked back upstairs with a smile on his face, and he didn't look at the two guys again from beginning to end.

"Jade Tower!"

At the staircase on the third floor, Lu Yifan was standing there with a solemn face looking at the jade building that was slowly coming, "How is it?"

"We really didn't guess wrong!" Yulou nodded with a faint smile, "This old nine really has other plans!"

"Since that's the case, then we don't have to be polite!" Lu Yifan said and was about to raise his feet and walk downstairs, but was quickly pushed back by the oncoming Jade Tower.

"Yifan, Lao Jiu definitely doesn't have any good fruits to eat when he goes out, and I expect that just because this Lao Jiu is not so bold to mess around, there must be a backer behind it!" Yulou said softly, "So our top priority is not to deal with Lao Jiu, but to wait to see someone!"

"Who is it?" Lu Yifan looked at the jade building in surprise.

"Someone who might be able to explain all this to us!" Yu Lou whispered, "Let's go back to our room and turn off the lights, I'm sure this person will show up soon!"

Hearing Yulou's words, although Lu Yifan was full of puzzlement, he didn't question Yulou's words, I saw him nod slightly, and then glanced downstairs again and turned around with Yulou and went back to the room.

......

For the gate of the post station was locked, the nine masters and his gang naturally did not know, only to see their group of people brave the torrential rain to sneak to the big yard outside the post station, now there are hundreds of large and small carriages parked here, and there is also a circle of stables under the wall around the yard, most of which are raised by the horses of the guests. At this moment, the torrential rain was mixed with lightning and thunder, and the horses were so frightened that they clung to the innermost wall of the stable, and did not dare to peek out.

"The rules are the same as the previous two days, take the gold and silver treasures when you see them, if you come across cheats, weapons, medicinal herbs, etc., come and tell me!" The Ninth Master commanded in a deep voice, "Remember, none of you are allowed to touch those things, if there is one less, none of us will want to live!"

"I know the Ninth Master, but which car is Lu Tian's own?" Looking at the similarly similar frames in the courtyard, an entourage beside the Ninth Master couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible to turn them over one by one?"

"Flip a fart!" the Ninth Master scolded angrily, "Didn't the surnamed Lu say that their goods were tea and spices? Then they must not be exposed to the torrential rain and look for them in the stables! Be careful not to wake up the grooms who are sleeping in the stables guarding the goods! If they really accidentally wake up any of them, then they can only blame their own lives......" Saying that, the Ninth Master also put his right hand on his neck and gestured fiercely, and his subordinates immediately understood what he meant.

"Got it, the Ninth Master!" the men agreed happily, and then scattered and poured into the stables, each searching for it

The stables were dark and damp, and groups of grooms crowded under the walls to listen to the wind and rain and sleep, they were all hard-working people, with no money, no power and no status, so even if they followed the master's family out to do business, they could only live in the stables, mainly to take care of their own goods and not be stolen, and secondly, to save a lot of money for the owner's family.

"Second brother, do you think it's those cars?"

In the stable, a burly man pointed a knife at the four or five car frames in the corner not far away, at this moment almost every frame was covered with a thick layer of rain cloth, and it looked similar from a distance, the man said to another short man beside him: "I remember that there didn't seem to be so many cars there the night before yesterday, and there was only a group of people surnamed Lu in the past two days, could it be them?"

"It doesn't matter if he's or not, just take a look at it!" The man known as the second brother laughed in a low voice, and as he said that, he took the lead and walked towards the frame, and at the same time, the steel knife in his hand was also tightened by him again, the closer to the frame, the slower the pace, and the more cautious his eyes became, obviously this 'second brother' is still a careful person. And the burly man followed closely behind the second brother like this, and a touch of greed appeared between his eyebrows.

The more they walked inside, the blurred vision became, and the dimly lit corner of the stable was almost out of sight, and a few men dressed as coachmen could be seen lying asleep beside the frame.

"Click......

The two of them walked on the muddy grass one after the other, and there was a sound of mud and water under their feet. The second brother suddenly stopped and turned his head to make a stop gesture at the big man behind him, and then pointed to a few people lying on the grass pile in front of him, signaling that the road ahead was narrow, and let the big man wait here. Then the second brother slowly raised the steel knife stained with rain, carefully moved forward, stopped abruptly in front of the nearest frame, and then reached out and gently provoked the rain cloth with the tip of the knife, trying to lift the rain cloth.

"Boom...... Click!"

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

However, just as the tip of his knife touched the rain cloth, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck the air, illuminating the heavens and the earth as bright as day, and then a shocking thunderclap rang out, startling the horses in the stables for a while. At the same time, a silver light suddenly flashed through the stables, and blood splattered all over the ground, and at once the stagnant water on the ground was stained red.

Looking at the second brother standing in front of him, he was standing there motionless with a knife at the moment, and he didn't react at all. The big man who followed behind couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, and then he frowned and walked forward cautiously, but when he walked behind the second brother, he found that the second brother's whole person was shaking from side to side strangely.

"Second brother, you are ......"

"Bang!"

The big man instinctively stretched out his hand on the second brother's shoulder, just opened his mouth and shouted, but saw that the second brother's body was like a deflated ball and instantly collapsed on the ground, but at the moment when the second brother's body fell, a silver light suddenly flashed in the darkness, and a bright lightning flashed again in the air, just between the lightning and flint, the big man finally saw what the silver light in front of him was, it was clearly a sharp short knife, and when the big man reacted to all this, the short knife had stabbed into his eyebrows mercilessly, making his mouth can't help but let out a grunting sound, and then the whole person fell straight backwards。

"Ninth Master, there seems to be movement over there in the second child!"

Jiu Ye, who was standing in the rainstorm and looked around, suddenly heard an urgent shout, and then he was just about to open his mouth to scold, but an extremely ominous premonition suddenly flashed through his heart, making his eyelids jump violently, and then out of the instinct of a warrior, the back of Jiu Ye's head felt tight

。 He was sure that at this moment, there must be a murderous person standing behind him.

"Who are you?" The Ninth Master didn't dare to turn back rashly at all, he knew that if he turned back now, he would only urge the other party to speed up. And how can a person who can stand behind him unconsciously be easily dealt with? Although the Ninth Master, who knew this truth well, trembled in his heart, his tone was deliberately lowered by him, "We know?"

"One-sided relationship!"

Sure enough, not long after the ninth master asked the words, a cold voice quietly came from behind him.

"Are you from Lu Tian?" Jiu Ye's reaction was also extremely fast, and his question was also very direct.

"Yes!" the other party replied more simply than he did.

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to do what you want to do!" "The voice behind the Ninth Master was cold with a hint of banter, "You want to make money and kill people, I'm a little simpler than you, I just want your life!"

"It's up to you!

I only heard the ninth master roar violently, and then he turned over without hesitation and swung a knife, and at the same time, his feet connected to the ground, and his body retreated violently. His knife was a false sword, and the purpose was to give himself a chance to retreat. It's a pity that he wants to retreat, but the people behind him don't intend to give him this opportunity. In the rainstorm, I only heard a "bang" sound of swords colliding with the metal, and then a black shadow dressed in a cloak rushed directly towards the ninth master with the momentum of lightning, and the ninth master took a step back, and the speed was much faster than the ninth master, the distance between the two quickly narrowed, and in the heavy rain, the sword flowers flew all over the sky, and the step by step was urgent. With a series of 'ping-pong' sword strikes, a series of sparks continued to burst out in the heavy rain, and Jiu Ye could only defend in embarrassment under the strong suppression of this person, and he couldn't find the slightest chance to counterattack, and as the battle became more and more intense, Jiu Ye also felt more and more that the strength of the other party was far above him.

"Bastard, why don't you hurry up and help me deal with him!" In a hurry, the Ninth Master could only call out to his subordinates who were scattered in the stables, and at this moment he couldn't care about anything, and his life was the most important thing.

"Looking for a helper, you don't have this chance anymore!"

Just when the Ninth Master's words fell, a low urn sound suddenly sounded from the stable, and then I saw Yin Xi, who was covered in rain mixed with blood, walked out with a cruel smile, and at this moment, his right hand was carrying the bloodied Wuji Knife, and in the left hand raised high, there was a bloody human head, which was the head of the men who followed the Ninth Master.

"Do you need help?" At this moment, Jiang Yi, who had just killed two people next to the frame, wiped the blood on the short knife with his sleeve, and asked the man in the cloth who was fighting with the Ninth Master in the middle of the courtyard with great interest.

"Obediently stand aside and watch the show!" the man replied with a sneer, and when he finished saying this, he deliberately raised his head and showed an arrogant smile at Jiang Yi and Yin Xi, and his face was undoubtedly revealed at this moment, it was Lan Chen.

"It's so hard to kill a dog, why don't I just chop him up and feed him to the dog in three moves and two ways!" Yin Xi said and wanted to rush forward with a knife, but was pulled down by Jiang Yi with a sneer, facing Yin Xi with a puzzled face, Jiang Yi explained meaningfully: "It's not that Lan Chen can't kill Lao Jiu, but he is deliberately testing Lao Jiu's kung fu!"

"Tentative Kung Fu?"

"That's right! Lan Chen was born in the No. 1 Sect of the Holy Domain, so he should have dabbled in the number of paths of the major sects in the Holy Domain, and anyone from the sect likes to test the opponent's path first, and then guess the opponent's path through moves!" Jiang Yi couldn't help but smile slightly, "Being well-informed is the unique advantage of people from Xuanzong!"

"Phew

！”

The Ninth Master, who had been fighting and retreating, finally couldn't resist Lan Chen's cat-and-mouse offensive, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and then hurriedly retreated to the gate of the post station, wanting to push the door back to the post station to wake everyone up, so as to take the opportunity to save his life. But what he didn't expect was that when he rushed out of the gate and was about to push the door in, he suddenly found that the gate of the post station had been locked at some point.

"Boom!" Until this moment, a terrible thought finally flashed in the mind of the ninth master, it turned out that his whereabouts had already been guessed, and a trap had been set up for him to take the bait.

"It is said that people die for money, and birds die for food! Today, if you die for money, you are not in vain!"

"You ......"

"Poof!"

"Huh!"

Just when Jiu Ye realized that something was wrong, Lan Chen's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and then before Jiu Ye could open his mouth to beg for mercy, the sword in Lan Chen's hand pierced into Jiu Ye's heart mercilessly, and a sword directly pierced the heart, killing Jiu Ye instantly.

Although there was a fight outside the post station, due to the violent storm and the rolling thunder from time to time, the sound of their fight was finally completely drowned in the wind and rain, and it did not attract the attention of anyone in the post station at all.

......

Not long after the Ninth Master went out with someone, Lu Yifan blew out the candle flame in the room according to the meaning of the Jade Building, and the room instantly fell into darkness.

And after being silent for an unknown amount of time, a dagger suddenly reached in the crack of the door, and then the dagger was slightly raised, only to hear a soft "click", and the door latch in the room was lightly picked open by this dagger, and then the door was pushed open by a thin crack, and then a thin black shadow was drilled along the crack in the door.

The man's whereabouts were extremely sneaky, first tiptoeing around the room, barely making a sound, and then standing quietly in the room for a long time, as if looking around for something.

"What are you looking for? Do you want me to help you?"

At this moment, there was a joking voice in the dark room, and then before the sneaky figures in the room hurriedly fled, a gust of wind flashed through the air in an instant, and then the door slammed shut. At the same time, the candle on the table suddenly lit up, and the dark room was completely lit up at once. After the candlelight illuminated the room, the two people suddenly found that Lu Yifan and Yulou were sitting at the table looking at him with great fanfare, and there were two cups of tea on the table that had been half drunk.

When Lu Yifan saw the pair of thief eyes exposed by this person by candlelight, a sense of déjà vu suddenly rose in his heart, as if he had seen them somewhere. But before Lu Yifan could open his mouth to ask, the man was short and wanted to turn around and flee the door, but he was slammed on his ankle by the teacup thrown out by Lu Yifan, and with a muffled snort, the man also fell to the ground in embarrassment, covering his ankles with both hands, and grinning on his face.

Facing the uninvited guest with a black scarf and a masked face, Lu Yifan's eyes were slightly cold, but Yulou suddenly stood up with a smile, slowly walked to this person's side, and reached out to personally remove the black scarf in front of him for him.

"Don't be surprised, all this is thanks to Your Excellency's kind reminder during the day!Since the noon farewell in the lobby, we have been waiting here for a long time!" Yulou said with a smile, and with his words, the faces of Lu Yifan and the uninvited guest changed almost at the same time, "It's just that I don't know whether to call you my uncle?" or should I call your real name, 'Golden Gate Thief' ground mouse!"
