The car entered the village.

The horses suddenly became a little agitated, and kept slamming the ground with their front hooves, as if they had a premonition of some danger.

Lu Bu vigilantly looked around, but found nothing suspicious.

The whole village is ruled by darkness.

This is not Bianjing, and the silence at this time is normal.

"Here it is." Zhao Pet in the car suddenly shouted.

The driver stopped.

Lu Bu was surprised to see that the place where the car was parked happened to be the door of the "Zhangjia Old Store" where he helped An Lengshuang buy wine and food last time.

The courtyard was a little scary, except for a faint light in the front room.

Lu Bu entered first, tied the horses first, and deliberately glanced at the stone tablet that was still lying on the ground.

After patrolling the courtyard, Lu Bu walked out.

"Little Palace, although this place is simple, it is also clean, please move to the house to rest." Lu Bu said.

What the family Ding said just now seems to be nonsense in Lu Bu's opinion, don't talk about the hunchbacked old man here, even if Zhang Ji is resurrected, he will bend his knees to greet Ben Hou when he sees him.

The car entered the hospital.

Lu Bu first pushed open the room with the lamp on.

"Shop?" Lu Bu screamed.

There was no one in the house.

Lu Bu only saw a half-burned candle on top of a wooden table, and other than that, it could almost be described as empty.

Fortunately, Lu Bu had been here before and knew that the store was in the courtyard at the back.

"Presumably the store is out, you first take the palace master to the back to rest, and then ask them to drink and eat." Zhao Pet is pampered on weekdays, where has he been in the car for so long, he has long been bumped and his back and legs hurt, and he commanded Lu Bu loudly.

Seeing that the two family members were helping the coachman unload the car, Lu Bu had no choice but to walk to the backyard with Zhao Pet in his arms.

The courtyard at the back is not very large either, with only two guest rooms, each lit with candles.

The house was clean, but it was a little cold and smelled of damp mustiness.

Zhao Pet sat on the bed.

"Go to the front and find the shop."

"The villain will go." Lu Bu agreed and walked out.

The courtyard was quiet, and there was no one in sight.

Lu Bu first made a round around the yard to ensure safety, and then walked to the front yard.

At this time, the three of them were already busy.

There is still no trace of the store.

Lu Bu remembered the last time he saw the hunchbacked old man taking out the wine and food from the back, and thought that the kitchen should also be in the back, so he walked back with the three of them.

Sure enough, in the corner next to the guest room, Lu Bu saw that there was also a very low small house, which was also lit with candles.

Sure enough, this is the kitchen.

On the ground, there were some vegetables that I didn't know when I bought them, and on a board full of oil, there was a piece of raw beef weighing five or six catties.

In the corner of the wall, there were a number of jars piled up haphazardly, most of which were empty.

"This store, dare you haven't had a customer since the last time?" Lu Bu retreated.

Fortunately, one of the cooks knew a little bit of cooking skills, rolled up his sleeves, cut the raw beef into small pieces, and put them in the water. Another family member found some chopped firewood and made a fire for cooking.

It took half an hour of busy work before a few people brought the boiled beef and a jar of wine into the house.

The store has not returned.

"Tang Zhuangshi, why don't I go and ask the little palace master for instructions, it's better to board the journey as soon as possible, this small village is really a bit weird." During the meal, even the coachman said to Lu Bu.

"I have heard that the people in this small village regard wealth as their lives, and it is really dangerous for us to carry these few belongings." A housekeeper chimed in.

Lu Bu sneered.

"You have to wait for a rest like this, just go and rest yourself, and it is enough to leave only one person, and Bu is born without knowing the word fear."

The three of them said no more.

After eating, the three of them went back to their houses to rest.

Lu Bu took the halberd to the front and looked at it, added some feed to the horses, turned back again, and sat down in the middle of the courtyard.

Just after midnight, a sound of footsteps woke up the sleepy Lu Bu.

Footsteps came from the front.

Lu Bu thought that the store was back, and strode over.

At the gate, a figure swayed.

The first to come in was obviously the hunchbacked old man, followed by two people, each carrying a bulging bag.

Seeing the horses in the yard, the three of them hesitated slightly.

"You have a guest here, I'm afraid you'll find out that I'm waiting for secrets, so let's go back to my house for the time being." One of them whispered to the hunchbacked old man.

The old man circled around a few horses.

"Look at the color of the horse's coat, it is all of the finest, and it should be from a city shop or a high-ranking official's house."

"Your brother dares to be greedy?" One person asked.

The hunchbacked old man smiled, and suddenly pulled out a short knife from his waist.

Putting down the bag, the three of them got together and whispered something.

Lu Bu couldn't hear the words of several people clearly, but he had already concluded what these people wanted to do next.

Lu Bu slowly retreated to the courtyard behind him, dodging and hiding in the corner.

No wonder Miao Ling said to herself, there are many bandits along the way, but there are them in this small village.

Seeing that the three of them came to the window of Zhao Pet's room, and were about to pry open the window and get in, Lu Bu jumped out and roared, and the halberd had already pressed on the arched back of the hunchbacked old man.

"How can a thief be so bold?"

The three of them were frightened and turned back suddenly.

The strength in Lu Bu's hand increased slightly, and the old man couldn't bear the weight of the short halberd, his legs weakened, and he knelt on the ground.

Seeing that Lu Bu was the only one, the other two people swung their short knives and rushed towards Lu Bu one after the other.

Lu Bu turned around abruptly when the short knife was about to approach his body, the halberd was still pressed against the hunchbacked old man's back, and his other hand stretched out, hooking two fingers and flicking it lightly on the man's wrist.

The guy screamed, and the dagger fell to the ground.

At the same time, one of Lu Bu's feet had already hooked the thigh of another person, but with a hook, that person couldn't stand, and his whole body was pressed against the hunchbacked old man's body.

Lu Bu pressed the two of them hard, and grabbed the guy who was shaking his wrist with his hand.

Hearing the voice, three people in another room hurried out.

"Where did you come from, so bold." A family member armed with a short whip slashed at the three people.

"There are still three thieves in front of you, you wait and bring them." Lu Bu said.

The coachman and another family member left.

It didn't take long for the two bags to be carried in front of him.

When the bag was opened, several people were stunned.

It turned out that the bag contained some antiquities mixed with dirt.

Most of these things were broken, some of them were no longer visible, and the smell of decay mixed with the smell of dirt filled the whole yard.

"It's really unlucky, but it turns out to be just a few thieves who make a fortune from the dead." One of the housekeepers spat and said.

Lu Bu's gaze fell on a rusty silver hairpin, and he suddenly let out a low cry, withdrew the halberd, and grabbed the silver hairpin in his hand.
