Chapter 8: The Road Is Difficult

When I woke up again, I had already been put in the hotel, and I could vaguely hear Ye Ming talking and laughing with people, and when I looked around, I found that I was lying on a cushion, and Tia was applying a hot towel to my head.

"Sir, Mr. Zhou is awake!"

"It's rude. Ye Ming seemed to be at the dinner, and when he heard Tia, he got up and asked me how I felt.

I saw that there were a lot of people around, so I closed my mouth and shook my head, Ye Ming was relieved.

"Mr. Ye, this dog is really loyal, but I almost killed it by mistake, I'm really sorry. A burly man in his mid-thirties said at the dinner table.

He wore short black braids, a loose light blue robe, and his strong chest muscles could be seen through the placket, his eyes were bright and bright, his eyebrows were long and flew into his sideburns, and his Klingon-like beard was connected to his sideburns along his cheeks.

Yes...... Although I won't fall for him.

The man cut a piece of roast pork with a knife and threw it at me, and the pork fell to the ground and rolled twice. I'm not a real dog, so how can I pick up dirty things to eat.

"This ......" Ye Ming looked at the dirty food, frowned slightly, and turned around to ask the waiter to take an extra pair of cutlery and put it on the table.

There were about twenty people at the table, all of whom were puzzled by Ye Ming's actions, and the heroic man at the head was about to ask, Ye Ming said first: "Mr. Crow, he is not my pet, he is a friend." ”

Crowe looked left and right, unsure of what he meant.

Ye Ming returned to the table, sandwiched some meat dishes on the plate next to him, and pushed them to his side, and Tia pushed a chair to set up. However, none of them understood what this meant.

I grabbed the cushion and put it in my chair, then sat down to eat, gobbled it up, and left.

"The dorm is over here, come with me. Tia hurriedly led the way.

Everyone was speechless for a moment, and in the silence, I had become a legend.

Outside the dormitory door, I started asking about the coma.

"That man named Crow is very strong. ”

"Yes, Chopper Crowe is very famous in the surrounding countries, and he is a great swordsman specially invited by this merchant. Tia was embarrassed and said: "He saw that Mr. was holding me and Miss left and right, and thought it was a flower thief, so he immediately took action." ”

"Did you fight Ye Ming as a bad guy......? Ye Ming was at a disadvantage during the battle?"

"I don't see who is good, but I see that the gentleman is always defending. I was busy trying to stop it, and I made it clear who I was and what I was trying to do. Crow thought he had beaten you to death, so he was sorry and let us go to the hotel to rest. ”

If he can knock me out with one blow, then the force of this punch should be able to shatter rocks, if the average dog would have broken into slag. It seems that this man is not in vain, but fortunately he is not an enemy.

"Where's Qur'an?

At this time, the door next to him opened, and Gu Lan yawned and said, "Just woke up." ”

I looked at the sky outside, it was completely dark, I guess it was the second half of the night, and I was trying to rest, and I noticed that someone was sneaky outside, it was a young girl.

Gu Lan also saw it, and said curiously: "Why is she?"

"Who?"

"The hostess of this inn. Gulan went out the window to follow.

"I said, what are you going to do, are you peculiar?"

"The merchants began to act on a large scale, apparently seeing the business opportunities brought about by the war," the Guran said with a smile: "Now, the merchant's ** is very valuable." ”

"I see. So I went with it, and went back and told Tia to rest first, so that she didn't have to follow.

We followed and noticed that the young proprietress was dodging and seemed to be following someone. Looking ahead, I could see the father and son I met during the day, but these two people were much worse than when they parted during the day, and there were only pants left around them, and it seemed that they had been robbed again.

Fortunately, it's not daytime, otherwise this decent old man would have been caught as an exhibitionist, where should this old face go? Actually, I think he is already late now, not only is he forced to run naked with his stupid son, but this embarrassment is also being followed by two girls who are not half the age of himself combined, which is really ......

The father and son seemed to be looking to see if there was anyone in front of them. If she stopped moving, the proprietress stopped, and Gulan and I hid behind a thick tree and stopped moving.

"There's nothing to see here, I can't stand you. "I didn't want to peek into the hidden place, and I was about to leave, but I found someone behind me probing my head to observe Guran. This man doesn't care much about my gaze, but I do.

"Guran, don't look back, we're being followed. He was about twenty meters behind and couldn't see the details clearly. ”

"Huh, how?" Gulan muttered quietly, "Will a stalker who stalk someone else's stalker still be stalked......

"This logic is okay, but have you ignored your identity as a stalker......" Now that the breeze was blowing from behind, I sniffled vigorously and exclaimed, "The person behind us is also being followed......"

Now the situation is a bit complicated, but it is easy to make it clear, the father and son group are in the front, followed by the praying mantis, we are the sparrow, and then there is the eagle, and there are hunters behind the eagles, but I don't know if there is a hunting police team behind the hunters......

"What the hell is this!" I whispered, "It's all because of your curiosity, otherwise you wouldn't be so embarrassed to be caught in the middle!"

Gu Lan whispered back, "Wouldn't you have been able to avoid it if you smelled someone behind earlier!"

"Eldest sister, the wind was coming in the direction before!

"The person in the back shouldn't want to reveal his identity, so hesitating, shouldn't the purpose be us, is it the person in front? or the person in the front? But ......"

"What are you doing with Fei, go out directly, let's join forces to kill this guy in the back, and we're not afraid of being discovered!"

"You bear with it, I can't tell if I am discovered, I don't want to be arrested. ”

What kind of thinking, just want to commit something like that!

"Let me think again......"

Gu Lan's mind was racing, and before he could guess what the result was, the people behind him had already shown their weapons, and the reflection of fine iron reflected the moonlight.

"Hey, hey, I saw the weapon reflected, and the person behind me drew his sword...... What to do?"

"Draw your sword?" said Gulan with a sigh of relief, "Go kill him, it turns out to be a rookie." ”

"You just said to go, don't you take the risk? I just met a big swordsman, and now Bao Buqi is a perverted stalker murderer, with so many attributes, his skills are definitely not bad. ”

"What kind of theory are you!" Gu Lan said: "If Ye Ming wants to assassinate, will he draw his sword before approaching?"

If Ye Ming wants to sneak attack, it is estimated that he will see blood when he draws his sword. Although there is no guarantee of anything, at least the latter person is more amateur than Ye Ming.

"I see, maybe I'm really a rookie...... "I used my identity as a dog to get close and secretly attacked, and I should be able to succeed." Just as I was about to take a step, I was suddenly stopped by Gu Lan, and I was immediately deflated, and immediately said impatiently: "Can you be neat, which one are you singing!"

"Don't be busy, there's a move in front of you. ”

The father and son at the front jumped into the hotel through the window, and the young proprietress naturally followed, and Gu Lan was still hesitating whether to go or stay, and the person in front had already left.

"Hiss......"

Gu Lan hesitated for a moment, and the man behind him took a deep breath, and saw that his center of gravity sank, ready to go, and then-

"Ahh

And he was brought down from the rear, by the man behind him.

I could only make a move, and I was about to start fighting, but I didn't expect that as soon as the person behind me showed up, he was still an old acquaintance.

"Is it Ike?" she was the dark elf girl Ye Ming saved during the turmoil in the Xuanyun Forest.

Eco put away her scimitar and smiled at the two of us, her index finger to her lips for us to be silenced.

When she got closer, I asked, "Why do there are so many people watching the two men who are naked in the middle of the night?" ”

Eco lowered her voice and exclaimed, "How could I have come all the way for such a vulgar thing!"

I smiled and said, "Is that for Ye Ming?"

"Not really!" Echo's cheeks flushed slightly, and he explained in a panic, "A batch of magical weapons in the Mystical Forest has been stolen, and I have been assigned to track it down. ”

Is there anyone else who knows exactly what is going on in the Mysterious Forest? The first thing that comes to my mind is Guran.

Looking back, she looked the same, frowned and replied, "I am seriously injured, and I have been with you or Ye Ming all this time." ”

That's right, it seems that the details still have to be asked by Echo.

Gu Lan looked around and said, "It's not appropriate to talk about things here, let's go back to the hotel first." ”

"Well, very good, very good, Ye Ming is also in the hotel. I looked at Echo, "Would you like to meet him?"

"Golden Dog-sama!" said a few words in a suppressed voice, and then picked up the man who had been put down behind him, and took him back to Gulan's private room. When I returned to the bright place, I realized that this person was actually the customer I had met in the black shop just now, and he used his sword to be vicious, and his move was deadly, and Gu Lan and I still remember it vividly.

"Did the weapons you sealed stolen?

"Those weapons are sealed in the ruins, so they don't get lost so easily. The lost weapons were used by the people in the cemetery of the deceased, and they were all on the graves, and they were not strictly guarded because the village was in urgent need of manpower to rebuild the village. ”

I sighed: "That's not to blame others for stealing, when the bank was still failing, you actually put valuables in the graveyard where no one but ghosts, if you don't lose something, who will lose it?"

"Hehe...... "Ike had to smile bitterly, "Originally, there were no people in there, but when the forest was in turmoil, the surrounding confusion magic was lifted, and this attracted outsiders." When we found out, the things had already been transported, and I followed the traces to catch up with this person, from the mysterious forest to this place, I didn't expect it to have anything to do with the human merchants, could it be that the weapons were sold......"

"It is very likely that now that there is a war in the east, the selling price of sophisticated weapons will naturally rise, especially the magic weapons of the dark elves, which can be sold at a sky-high price. Gu Lan looked at the captive in front of him and said, "The information is all on him, it depends on how to pry it out." ”

Eco woke the man up with a scraper of his ears, and then asked him for his identity.

"Hmph. ”

The man had been bound by us, but when he saw us, he only sneered, but did not answer. Echo raised his hand again.

"Wait," the dark elf's method of extorting confessions seems to be immature, and this kid has to take advantage of this beating, "Doesn't it hurt for you to beat him like this?, and it will only increase his anger and make him more determined......" I turned to look at Gu Lan, "Torture people, you always have a way, right?"

"Hmph," Gu Lan picked up the fruit knife on the table with his right hand, put his left hand on the table, spread his five fingers, and then used the tip of the knife back and forth between his fingers, only a finger song was missing. But she was clearly a master, and she didn't hurt her fingers, and after two back and forth, she said to us, "Press his hand up." ”

Oh, does this make people increase their psychological stress and then tend to collapse. I saw the man's eyes waver, but they remained steadfast.

"See how lucky you are!" so Gulan immediately went under the knife.

"Ah!!h

As a result, the first knife was inserted into the man's thumb, and a knuckle at the front of his thumb was cut off alive, and ten fingers were connected to the heart, and he immediately screamed like killing a pig. Eco was stunned for a moment, and immediately took an apple and stuffed it into his mouth to shut him up.

Gu Lan pulled out the tip of the knife, shook off the blood, and asked lightly, "Name, identity, purpose?"

The man was in a cold sweat, but he was silent, and Guran raised his knife, but this time it didn't hit his hand, and then began to play a game of poking. The man was ready to have his finger cut off, but when he found that Gulan had not been hit, he was immediately deflated.

I don't know if it's intentional or not, as soon as the man was relieved, Gu Lan was inserted again, just breaking a phalanx of his ring finger. The man was so troubled by something in his mouth that he couldn't scream.

"Name, identity, purpose?"

"That's enough, my name is Bans, and I'm a merchant who has come to do business—ahhhhh

Halfway through his speech, all the words had turned into screams, and it turned out that Guran had cut off his entire middle finger with a knife.

"Advise you to think of a good lie. ”

The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and he muttered, "The name is true, I'm the thief who came here to steal something—ahhh

Gu Lan didn't cut off his fingers this time, he directly stabbed him in the palm of his hand, and said indifferently: "I don't need your life, I just need to tell the truth." ”

The person in front of him is actually very good at lying, and his facial expression and tone do not change when he lies, which is very natural. Fortunately, it was quieter now, and I could hear the rhythm of his heartbeat, and the chaos was a lie. He was indeed very powerful, and even Gu Lan could no longer judge the truth from the tone, so he simply did not look at the person, and directly observed the change of my expression to test the polygraph.

Of course, the man didn't know this, the first time he told an obvious lie, the second time he told a reliable one, but he was found out after three times of deception, and he only felt that Gu Lan's intuition was exactly evil.

Gulan did it three more times, and I knew why she had to play that game in the first place, and every time Gulan had just cut off his fingers when he was unprepared, his will was about to be destroyed.

All five fingers were missing, and the man also discovered Gu Lan's methods, so he simply put his fingers together and let Gu Lan cut them off. Gu Lan used a fruit knife with great precision, the tip of the knife was just between the man's fingers, and when the man was surprised, the second knuckle of his index finger was broken.

"Name, identity, purpose?"

"If you don't believe me, you might as well cut off my hand!"

"Hard-mouthed. "Gulan started playing the game again, and the atmosphere was like hell, and Echo and I were shocked, but Gulan was enjoying it, and we just wanted to press his hand.

His entire right hand was already dripping with blood, and every time Güran cut off his knuckles, he would take out the apple from his mouth and ask again, "Name, identity, purpose?"

When Gu Lan asked again, the man's eyes flickered, and his lips opened slightly, as if he was about to speak. Just a little slower, Gu Lan cut off his entire right thumb with a knife again, and asked again, "Name, identity, purpose?"

The man finally broke down and cried out in a trembling voice, "I say!"

Gu Lan raised the fruit knife with the tip of the knife to cut off, but did not put it down, coldly waiting for his answer.

The man didn't know why Gu Lan could see through that he was lying every time, so he had to relent: "I'm a mercenary of the 'Golden Mercenary Group'......"

"No wonder the mouth is so tight, it turned out to be the 'Golden Mercenary Group'. Gu Lan knew that this was the truth, so he didn't need to look at my expression, and put down the fruit knife: "Does it have anything to do with the war in the east?"

"There is ......"
