Chapter Thirty-Six: The Dark Tide Surges

"Yes, helper!"

After getting the confirmation, the middle-aged man said with a cold face.

"It turned out to be him, a small teahouse shopkeeper, who dared to calculate our iron fist, he was simply looking for death, go, call the master of the hall."

"Yes!"

…………

At the same time, the Li family in Solid Stone City.

Li Tianyue, the head of the family, was listening to the report of the servant.

"Alone, and didn't see the goods come back?" Li Tianyue held his chin with one hand and tapped the arm of the chair with the other.

For the Four Seas Tea Shop, he has been paying attention to it for a long time.

A new way to make tea, and how to drink tea, plus how hot it is.

If it scales up, the benefits behind it are immeasurable.

With such a lucrative business, Li Tianyue was naturally red-eyed, and went to discuss with the shopkeeper of Sihai Teahouse several times about how to buy and make tea.

But the other party didn't eat oil and salt, and didn't pay attention to it at all.

As a big family that can be counted in Solid Stone City, the Li family will naturally not give up so easily.

Some time ago, I sent people to monitor every day, and I wanted to look for an opportunity to do it.

Unexpectedly, Hou Jiuming suddenly left Jianshi City to buy goods.

This left the plan on hold for the time being.

Now that I'm back, it's definitely going to go on and get the tea thing done.

Otherwise, why did he put so much effort into it, even if the main owner didn't do it anymore, he kept people paying attention to the Four Seas Teahouse?

As long as they get the formula, their Li family will definitely be able to move the family ranking forward.

…………

The dark tide in the outside world was surging, and Hou Jiuming stayed in the teahouse to listen quietly and collect news.

The old emperor of the Shaoyue Kingdom is approaching, and the new emperor has not yet been determined, and the court guards are dispatched to suppress the unrest of various cities.

At the same time, the Shaoyue army has been stationed at the junction of the Qianyu country to guard against the attack of the Qianyu army at any time.

This is all information about the imminent war between the two countries.

In addition, the most frequent news is that the towns under the jurisdiction of the border cities are plagued by bandits, as well as the attacks of ghosts.

Under the iron-blooded methods of the court guards, the bandits eased slightly.

But in terms of ghosts, not only has it not been suppressed.

On the contrary, as more and more people die, they appear more frequently.

One of the most famous is the Joy Inn.

It is said that it is a pole inn.

During the day, it belongs to the good side, no matter who goes in, as long as it doesn't make trouble, you can get a good reception, and even if you don't have money, you can eat inside.

And in the evening it is transformed into an evil side, and whoever goes in at this time, good or evil, does not appear again.

Listen to those who have been in the inn during the day,

No matter what time of day you enter, there were only five people inside.

Two of the men were shopkeepers and associates.

The other three are a family of three.

A man and a woman, with a child, sat in the innermost seats of the inn.

The man is dressed as a scholar, and the woman is petite and gentle, with a small jasper.

This family of three, no matter when they go, they all sit in the same position and have hardly changed.

Others told it as a story.

But Hou Jiuming frowned slightly after hearing this.

"Is it a coincidence, or is it ......?"

He remembers the first time he encountered in the guest house, and now as the guests tell about it, it naturally evokes memories of the past.

"If it's true as guessed, then it seems that the man has not escaped the catastrophe!"

Thinking of the man who killed his wife with his own hands and disguised himself as a suicide man, Hou Jiuming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Heaven is good, reincarnation depends on who it spares."

…………

The day flies by.

When night comes, Solid Rock City is still bustling, with people coming and going, unaffected by the chaos outside.

And the Four Seas Teahouse ushered in a group of uninvited guests at this time.

These people swaggered down the streets, and everyone they saw fled.

When they arrived at Sihailou, one of them had a scar on the corner of his eye and a hairless bald head on top of it.

"Fence this place for me, not a single fly can be released."

The people around him who were dressed in the same clothes cheered in unison.

"Yes, Hall Master!"

Dozens of people quickly dispersed, and in less than a minute, they surrounded the Sihai Teahouse.

Seeing this, the passers-by hurriedly went away, not daring to stop and watch the excitement.

It's all people who live in this area.

Naturally, he recognized these people with iron bracers on their wrists as that force.

knew that they were all a group of ruthless people, and if they offended a little, they would be beaten and scolded, and they even accidentally died.

Now, they are clearly doing things here, and if it affects them and is implicated, it will be unlucky.

At the same time, passers-by are also secretly sympathetic to the besieged Sihai Teahouse.

It's not good to offend anyone who wants to offend the Iron Fist, now it's okay,

When Sihailou was surrounded, the bald man came down to the back door with a few men behind him.

"Open the door." The bald head commanded.

"Yes!"

The two people crossed the bald head, came to the door, and directly raised their feet and kicked them.

"Bang~"

The wooden door opened and slammed into the wall behind it.

"Bang~".

The huge inertia caused several depressions to appear in the wall behind the door at once.

When the bald man saw the door open, he entered the courtyard with his hands behind his back and under the escort of his younger brother.

"Is it rude for Your Excellency to kick in the door?" Hou Jiu stood in the courtyard with cold eyes, looking at the bald group of people who kicked in the door in a grand manner.

With his senses, nature had already discovered these people when they appeared.

And, he recognized them as the Iron Fist.

However, it was precisely when I recognized the person that I couldn't help but slander in my heart.

"Could it be that Boss Li's matter has been exposed, and this bald head has brought people to take revenge?

Shouldn't it?

The last time the matter was handled very cleanly, with the current criminal investigation technology, unless it was the help of an immortal cultivator, it was impossible to find out any clues at all. ”

"You're the owner of the Four Seas Teahouse?" The bald head tilted his head and looked Hou Jiuming up and down.

"Exactly down there."

Since he already knew that the person who came was not good, Hou Jiuming naturally would not be polite, and his tone was cold when he spoke, without any emotion.

"Yo, is this a hard stubble?" Hou Jiuming's tone surprised the bald head, and then asked with interest, "Do you know who we are?" ”

Looking at the playful expression of the bald head, Hou Jiuming shook his head in his heart, "I don't know who I am if I can do two-handed kung fu, and it's a miracle that such a person can survive until now." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me what you mean, I don't have so much spare time to accompany you to talk nonsense."

"Look for death!" I originally wanted to play a game of cat and mouse, but I didn't expect Hou Jiuming to be so uncooperative, and his words directly made him half angry, "Give him a long memory." ”

"Yes, Boss!"

The four followers quickly stepped forward and surrounded Hou Jiuming in the middle.

The man in the rear, without hesitation, kicked his knee.

In the face of the attack, Hou Jiuming looked indifferent, did not dodge, but stretched out his left hand like lightning, grabbed the neck of the man next to him, and threw it back.
