Xu Xiaoxiao, Chu Chu, and Tie Zhu looked at Liu Qiao'er blankly, counting the silver taels in the five boxes over and over again.

Since Liu Qiaoer took over Yinliang, she has been counting for about three hours, and seeing that the sky is darkening, she is still energetic and repeating the count.

Only the shopkeeper Zhao had the patience to accompany Liu Qiaoer to toss, only to see him sipping tea without being in a hurry, and chatting with Xu Xiaoxiao without a word.

"Are you alright?" Xu Xiaoxiao yawned and repeated a sentence impatiently.

"Don't worry, it's a lot of money, and it's not a joke." Liu Qiao'er looked serious, her eyes stayed on the wooden box, and she said casually.

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at Liu Qiao'er who was concentrating on counting with a smile, he has been engaged in the pawn industry for decades, so he can naturally understand Liu Qiao'er's cautious mood at this time.

"Miss Liu, don't rush, take your time."

Liu Qiao'er paid attention to the silver taels that were all in the box, and didn't hear the words of Shopkeeper Zhao, she muttered to herself and her eyes fell on the last box, counting the last silver taels, and sat up straight with her waist relieved.

"Alright, the numbers are right." She closed the wooden box with satisfaction, handed the three boxes to Xu Xiaoxiao, and held the two boxes herself.

Seeing that Liu Qiaoer had finally finished counting, the shopkeeper got up to send him off, and Xu Xiaoxiao and the others left the pawnshop happily with the wooden box.

Before leaving, Xu Xiaoxiao didn't forget to advise, "Shopkeeper, we will wait for your news in the inn for a day, if no one comes to us, we will go back." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll give you an answer tomorrow." The shopkeeper patted his chest and swore an oath.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction, and left with Liu Qiaoer holding the wooden box.

When they left the pawnshop, it was completely dark, and the pedestrians on the street were scattered, Liu Qiaoer looked around and vigilantly handed over the wooden box to Xu Xiaoxiao.

"I'll take the wind, you quickly put the wooden box into the space."

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and took the wooden box, turned his wrist and disappeared into his arms.

Liu Qiao'er looked at the wooden box that had disappeared, and her heart settled down, "Let's go, let's go eat something delicious." ”

After the matter was done, Xu Xiaoxiao's heart fell, and he took Chu Chu's hand and walked towards the Fulai Inn by the moonlight.

Fulai Inn was at the location where Xu Xiaoxiao stopped the carriage in the morning, and they walked around all the way, and everyone was in a very good mood.

Chu Chu stopped and looked back from time to time, Xu Xiaoxiao noticed that something was wrong with Chu Chu, and lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I always feel like there's someone behind us." Chu Chu looked back at the dark street and said with a serious expression.

As soon as Chu Chu said this, Xu Xiaoxiao squinted and followed her gaze, she wanted to go to check, but was stopped by the iron pillar.

"Your injuries are not healed yet, and it will be dangerous to go forward, saying that he is not here?" Tie Zhu took Xu Xiaoxiao's hand and continued to move forward.

"Who's coming?" After listening to the conversation of several people, Liu Qiaoer hugged Xu Xiaoxiao in fear.

Tie Zhu glanced at Liu Qiao'er, "Nosy." ”

"The stinky boy is so bold that he has to talk back." Liu Qiao'er hugged the iron pillar in anger and slapped his ass gently.

Xu Xiao looked at the people who were making trouble carefully, and before they knew it, they had come to the Fulai Inn.

As soon as they stepped into the door, they saw a familiar figure, and before they could react, Chu Guo trotted over.

"Tiny."

Chu Guo wore a mask and changed into simple linen coarse cloth clothes, while Chu Qing, who was standing behind him, was wearing a white robe with a mask on his face.

"Why are you here?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Guo who was hugging her thigh.

"This guy is worried about you, and he will come out alive or dead." Chu Qing said helplessly.

Chu Guo pouted and turned his head back, "What, it's obvious that you have been talking about Xiaoxiao, so I came out with you." ”

Chu Qing, who was pierced in his mind, blushed and coughed lightly, and Wang Duo, who had checked in, walked towards them.

"I've booked a room."

"Worthy of being the king..."Before Liu Qiao'er could say the word prince, Xu Xiaoxiao quickly covered her mouth.

"Let's go back to our room." Xu Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly.

Liu Qiaoer was gagged and had to nod desperately.

Chu Chu behind him saw Chu Guo playing sexually, teasing/playing Chu Guo while walking, Chu Guo wanted to be angry but wanted to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor, so he had to walk with his hands behind his back with a red face.

Everyone laughed unconsciously when they saw Chu Guo's appearance, and the laughter echoed in the inn, and Xu Xiaoxiao's room was assigned to the corner room on the second floor.

She entered the room and pushed open the window lattice, opened her wisdom eyes to observe the situation around her, and a black figure appeared under a plane tree.

"Knock knock."

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Xu Xiaoxiao leaned on the door vigilantly and listened to the movement outside.

"It's me." Chu Qing stood outside the door with his hands behind his back.

Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly opened the door when she heard Chu Qing's voice, "I thought it was who." ”

Chu Qing strode into the room, Xu Xiaoxiao came to the table and stool with him, Chu Qing saw the open wooden window, and his expression was solemn.

"Did you spot a figure under the tree?"

Xu Xiaoxiao got up and closed the window lattice, "Well, the one who chased and killed you?" ”

Chu Qing's face was gloomy and he shook his head, "No, I haven't confirmed my identity yet, I'm afraid it is..."

He was worried that it was Li Wen's subordinates, and the way back to Xin'an City had stopped for a while, especially after they entered Xin'an City, Li Wen no longer pursued, but this place was not in his territory, and he was afraid that Li Wen would take the opportunity to attack.

He can still deal with protecting the Chu State, but he is afraid that Li Wen's subordinates will kill them together.

"Then go get your identity confirmed?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the window.

She doesn't like to speculate, and she doesn't like to live a life of fear, since she knows that an enemy is present, she will go head-to-head.

Before Chu Qing could respond, she got up and opened the window and jumped down, Chu Qing was stunned for a moment and hurriedly followed.

The figure hid under the plane tree, occasionally showing his head to check the situation on the second floor, but when he saw that the window on the second floor was opened, he was puzzled and wanted to go up and check it out.

As soon as he stepped out of the tree, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and he turned his head stiffly, and in an instant, a knife came at him.

Xu Xiaoxiao held a sharp arrow and pressed on the man in black step by step, Chu Qing followed closely behind to attack left and right, and the man in black retreated one after another, and was finally forced to the trunk by an arrow.

"Say, Who sent you?" Chu Qing held an arrow against the neck of the man in black.

The man in black raised his hands and said tremblingly, "The man spares his life, I am only in charge of keeping an eye on the sentry, and the others have nothing to do with me." ”

"Who told you to come?" Xu Xiaoxiao stepped forward and asked.

"Wang Li asked me to come." The man in black made a gesture begging for mercy, looking like he was about to cry.

"Wang Li?"

Chu Qing and Xu Xiaoxiao glanced at each other and asked questions at the same time.

"Do you know each other?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Qing and asked.

Chu Qing shook his head, "I don't know." ”
