Volume 2: The Game of Zero Chapter 25: The Innkeeper Clashes

Seeing the woman's departure, Ning He secretly thought to himself, this should be the girl's mother. Unlike the lively girl, her mother was visibly haggard, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, and her whole person was very gray and gloomy.

He ate the meat on his plate while silently listening to the loud discussion at the table behind him, as if he was afraid that the whole hall would not hear it. After they sat down, even the little girl who had been cowering behind the counter poked her little head out and looked curiously.

"Hey! Did you hear that? Tomorrow is the Rose Showdown! A very rough voice sounded behind him, Ning He fed a large mouthful of minced meat into his mouth, and the pope of the Church of Light said the same, saying that it would be held in two days.

"Hmm." The answer was a feminine male voice, "According to those intelligence dealers, there is no limit to the number of people in the Rose Duel, as long as you enter the Rose Forest outside Zegalsi City before noon tomorrow, you will participate by default." It is said that the last person to come out will marry the future duchess of this kingdom. ”

The rough voice carried a hint of doubt: "We can do it too?"

"It is said that... OK. The feminine male voice hesitated for a while, and gave an affirmative answer.

"Tut-tut, this bullshit game is really exciting, the taste of that girl a few days ago, I have an endless aftertaste now, I don't know what happened to the duke's daughter, hehehe." This was accompanied by a smacking sound.

Many of the guests who were having dinner looked sideways, and the sound was really not small, and even Ning He couldn't help but turn his head and glance back at the back table, which happened to meet a pair of cold and narrow eyes.

Ning He glanced at the two of them, turned around slowly, and continued to eat his dinner. I have to say that the cooked food here is still great, and he hasn't eaten hot food in a long time.

Since he came to this world, he has always relied on dry food to drink some cold meat to cushion his stomach, and this is the first time he has eaten well in the real sense.

"Humph!" A cold snort sounded in the hall, and Ning He's hand paused slightly before continuing to eat.

"What's it called? Unhappy?"

The rough voice sounded again, this time his voice was a little louder, very arrogant.

Ning He's afterglow swept to the black-robed figure on a dining table in front of him, and the cold snort should have come from her, a woman.

Ning He couldn't help but tilt his head and look at it a few more times, he couldn't see anything under the black robe, but this made him curious.

The little girl behind the counter pouted slightly, jumped out of her chair and ran towards the back.

"Bang."

Ning He felt movement behind him, and the two people behind him got up and walked past his table and walked towards the single table that made a sound.

As they passed him, the pair of cold eyes met him again, and the eyes of the two sides met for two seconds, and the thin, long-haired young man withdrew his gaze.

Ning He frowned slightly.

The slender young man and the brawny man beside him, who was noticeably two larger than him, were supposed to be the owners of the previous feminine and rough voice.

He followed the footsteps of the two of them, and the woman who was shrouded in black robes had already stood up at this time, looking at the two people who were close, with a slight frown.

"What do you want to do?"

The strong man sneered: "What do we want to do, what do you mean by that cold snort just now?" He stared greedily at the woman, and when he got closer, he saw a fair and smooth face under the black robe, very beautiful.

The thin young man said softly, "Apologize, and we'll leave." Otherwise, I can't guarantee that my friend will do something unreasonable. ”

The woman frowned, looking at the two people with a huge disparity in size, and through the gap between the two, she saw Ning He sitting opposite each other.

At this time, he had already put down the tableware in his hand and was quietly looking at the woman, who had a familiar voice.

"Don't apologize?" The thin young man asked impatiently.

"Why should I apologize? You're being unreasonable here. The woman didn't flinch, her slender jade hand hidden in her sleeve robe already had a pair of knives in her hand, and her body was tense.

The thin young man smiled, took a step back, and left the space to the strong man beside him. The strong man grinned, and two big hands struck at the woman.

The woman did not calmly jump to the side of the aisle, nimbly avoiding the strong man's hand. After a single blow, the strong man was not annoyed, but his smile became brighter. He likes this, and the harder it is to get, the more fulfillment it has.

Just as he was about to strike again, there was movement behind him.

"This is the royal capital Zegar, two of you bullying a weak woman like this, isn't it right?" Ning He got up with a smile and looked at the two.

The thin young man turned to look at him and said with a gloomy smile: "I noticed you just now, I didn't expect you to dare to jump out." ”

"Oh?" Ning He was surprised.

"I don't like your eyes, I hope you don't meet me the next time you are resurrected." The thin young man didn't say much, he waved his hand, and the strong man beside him turned around and picked up a bench and threw it at Ning He.

The bench rotates in the air, faintly with the sound of breaking wind, and the speed is not slow. Everyone is an ordinary person, and if they are hit like this, the injury will definitely not be small.

The bench was fast, Ning and dodged faster, and he easily avoided the throwing bench, which fell apart behind him.

Seeing this, many of the surrounding diners got up, either running out of the hotel or heading directly to the back of the hotel.

After a few breaths, only Ning He, Wei Yuan, Guo Biao, and Chu Xue were left in the entire hotel hall.

The thin young man is named Wei Yuan, and the strong man is Guo Biao, the two grew up together, dropped out of school in the last stage of middle school and entered the society, and they have not mixed up in the past few years.

On the day they came to World One, they robbed a nearby village, killing an uncle and his son who had been kind enough to take them in, and the uncle's son's wife who came back in the afternoon hanged herself after being humiliated.

That night, the two stayed in a clean room at the uncle's house, where they had also suffered a conscience condemnation and discomfort from the murder after their impulsiveness had subsided.

After a night, both of them convinced themselves that it was just a game and that they would be good people when they went out. They looted the uncle's family's money before the villagers found out, and then fled from the village, and did all the bad things along the road, and finally came to the royal capital Zegar.

The two of them restrained their behavior in Zegar, they have been living in this family hotel for the past few days, ostensibly to recuperate, but in fact they are eyeing the family who opened the inn, and they are going to leave Zegar quickly after the ransack tonight, but the news of the showdown with Rose this morning disrupted their plans.

Chu Xue's cold snort made the two of them unhappy in the past few days, originally they just wanted to save face, as long as Chu Xue was soft, they would not do anything in front of everyone. Who would have thought that a lone woman would dare to resist, and Wei Yuan, who couldn't get off the stage, could only let Guo Biao play.

Guo Biao, who had already had a bad heart for this beautiful face, was naturally not ambiguous, and he said that he would go up, but the first time was avoided, and the second time was shouted by Ning He, so there was the current scene.

Chu Xue took the opportunity to take a few steps back and kept a safe distance from both sides.

Wei Yuan squinted and smiled, "What's your name?" "I wasn't shocked because Ning He avoided the bench, he and Guo Biao fought from childhood to adulthood, and just now, he was confident that he could dodge it.

"Does my name mean anything to you?"

Ning He replied coldly, he slowly drew his sword, it was the one that Douglas lent him, and he still hasn't wanted to go back.

"Huh."

Wei Yuan looked at Ning He, who was holding the sword, shook his head, and said to himself: "My name is Wei Yuan, and his name is Guo Biao." Originally, we were supposed to live like dogs in reality. But now, here's the game, and we can live in a different way. ”

I don't know if these words are for Ning and Chu Xue, or for Guo Biao, or for myself.

Wei Yuan's eyes became deep, he restrained his smile and took out a short dagger from his waist. Guo Biao on the side picked up another chair, and he slammed it on the ground a few times, making a loud noise in the hall, until it smashed into a suitable shape, and he smiled with satisfaction.

Ning He raised his eyebrows and said, "You want to fight?" Over here? This is Zegar, not some kind of wilderness. ”

"If you're in the middle of nowhere, you're already a corpse!" Wei Yuan roared angrily, and Guo Biao moved.

He strode over with his hands on the bench and swept towards Ning He.

Ning He took a few steps back, Guo Biao followed a few steps, and Wei Yuan turned over to another aisle, trying to block Ning He's retreat from the other side.

"Where do you want to go?"

A beautiful figure blocked in front of Wei Yuan, Wei Yuan looked a little distracted, this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful woman in reality.

Chu Xue didn't know when she had already taken off her black robe, and she held a knife in each hand.

"Get out of the way!"

Wei Yuan shouted gloomily.

"Humph!" Chu Xue snorted coldly and ignored it.

Wei Yuan took a deep breath, looked at Chu Xue and smiled for no reason: "Maybe you don't believe it, but I think I fell in love with you at first sight." ”

"I've heard this kind of thing since I was a child, why don't you go and stand in line and come back to me." Her voice was indifferent, without the slightest mood swing.

"It's also ......" Wei Yuan smiled self-deprecatingly, his expression changed, and the dagger in his hand slashed a cold light and stabbed at Chu Xue.

"Clank!"

Gold and iron struck, and under his surprised gaze, the moving woman in front of him actually blocked his own stab. This was not over, Chu Xue's other knife had already slashed and counterattacked, and Wei Yuan staggered the dagger and took a big step back.

The other side.

The narrow aisle, Ning He retreated again and again.

He was forced into a corner by Guo Biao, and there was no way to retreat.

Ning He also smiled for no reason, life and death can always make people feel something, and he suddenly thought that he had often been forced into a desperate situation like this before. After thinking about it, it was a little like a lifetime, and it was only a few days since I entered here.

"Is it possible... I'm not a good stubble?!"

Guo Biao's bench was already raised high, and he was about to strike Ning He in the head. It's just that this time will never come, Sen Leng's sword light has passed through his thick chest, and the bench has fallen.

"Uh... Uh-uh......"

Guo Biao wanted to speak, but in the end he fell to the ground and didn't say a word.

And Ning He, who handed out the sword, was also silent, he didn't even care about Chu Xue and Wei Yuan who were fighting next to him, he fell to the ground, looking at Guo Biao's corpse and the sword stuck in his chest in a daze.

Human life is like paper.

He wondered when he would be able to make such an unscrupulous move.
