Chapter 57

Listening to Su Chen's inquiry, Xiao Shi's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.

"Isn't this path time-saving?"

Su Chen sighed, sure enough, he didn't take the official road, this was a black shop that killed people and sold goods.

Originally, Su Chen was still puzzled, there were still people in Jiangnan Province who dared to do this.

If King Zhao allowed this kind of thing to happen in Jiangnan Province, he would be digging his own grave.

Gangnam Province became rich by relying on trade from all over the world.

If it continues for such a long time, the economy of Gangnam Province will definitely be affected quite severely.

Doesn't it mean that King Zhao is now making an attempt to rebel, and his confidence to rebel is nothing more than the wealth of Jiangnan Province, his fiefdom.

It can provide him with a steady stream of economic foundations, so that he can recruit troops.

Su Chen let go of what he was thinking, and was just about to open his mouth to the small stone, when he heard a strange noise outside the door.

"Guest officer, your two meals are ready."

Three or four shopkeepers walked in with plates, put down the food and went out, leaving only the shopkeepers who had received the two at the beginning.

"Guest officer, just ask me if you have any requirements."

Su Chen waved his hand, and the shopkeeper went out.

After making sure that no one was outside the door, Su Chen looked at the small stone and said.

"I ask you, what have you found?"

Xiao Shi's eyes narrowed slightly, looked out the door, and then spoke.

"Those little two with faces are tall and tall, and there are thick calluses on their palms, if they don't hold weapons all year round, they won't have such calluses."

Su Chen raised his eyebrows, looked at the small stone with satisfaction, nodded and said.

"Yes, I observed you more carefully, and I didn't take you with me in vain."

Xiao Shi nodded a little embarrassedly when he heard Su Chen's praise.

"The specific situation still needs to be controlled by them to know, and we will calculate it."

Su Chen looked at the small stone, and both of them saw a hint of coldness in their respective eyes.

……

The night was full of bright stars, and the stars hung above the night again.

In the inn, the smiling shopkeeper and shopkeeper during the day seemed to be a different person at the moment.

The sharpened dagger in his hand glowed with chill against the backdrop of the night.

"Those two should be asleep."

"Don't worry, if you eat that immortal, even if you are an immortal, you can't bear it."

"But I look at the scholar's appearance is a little not simple, I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that his eyes are a little panicked."

One of them pursed his lips in disdain when he heard this.

"You said it yourself, you are a scholar, and you don't have to be a son from somewhere."

Just when everyone was gossiping, the shopkeeper coughed lightly, and everyone was instantly quiet.

Look at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper swept his gaze to everyone and said slowly.

"Be careful, don't mess it up, the commander of Jin Wuwei came a while ago, and we'll withdraw after this month."

As soon as everyone heard the three words Jin Wuwei in the shopkeeper's mouth, their necks couldn't help but shrink.

"Shopkeeper, if we do this kind of thing under King Zhao's nose, can we really survive?"

"It's uncertain if you can survive if you are discovered, but if you don't do it, you definitely won't be able to live, don't talk nonsense, go quickly."

When everyone heard the shopkeeper's words, a touch of ruthlessness also appeared in their eyes.

"It's done."

With that, everyone took out their daggers and walked towards the room where Su Chen and the others were.

"Crunch~"

Pushing open the door, everyone saw two figures on the bed and nodded to each other.

Then one of them walked up and gritted his teeth.

"Die!"

The dagger that glittered with cold light in his hand stabbed downward.

But there was no sound of a sword entering the body, and there was no scream.

The man secretly said that it was not good, and when he lifted the quilt, he only saw that there was no one under the quilt, but he used pillows to pile up into a human shape.

"It's broken, they ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a huge force fall on his chest.

"Poof!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the man's figure flew out in an instant, smashing all the tables and chairs in the room to the ground.

The figure of the small stone jumped down from the beam, and then looked at the people in the room who had not yet reacted.

"You!"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at the little stone in disbelief.

"Up!"

The shopkeeper flashed his hand, and the people behind him shouted and killed the little stone.

"No need to keep your hands on."

I don't know where the voice came from, it sounded in this room, and Xiao Shi immediately nodded excitedly when he heard this.

He took out a short blade from his waist and faced everyone.

Xiao Shi held a short blade, and his body was constantly shuttling between the crowds, and the short blade in his hand was constantly wielding and assassinating.

Each time a small stone pierces a short blade, it brings out a streak of blood.

One of them finally caught the trace of the small stone, and the small stone happened to be entangled by a person at this time, so his eyes flashed fiercely.

With a fierce force in his legs, the dagger in his hand stabbed at the back of the small stone's heart.

But at this moment, the man suddenly felt a chill in his chest.

He looked down with some confusion.

I saw a blood-stained spear head coming out of my chest.

The man's whole body began to tremble when he saw this scene, and the focus of his eyes was slowly dissolving at this moment.

Finally slammed to the ground.

At this time, Xiao Shi also took the short blade in his hand from the neck of the person opposite.

Blood splattered on Little Stone's face, but he didn't care, and instead kicked the people who wanted to sneak up on him.

At this point, the people in the inn fell to the ground except for the shopkeeper.

At this moment, the shopkeeper's legs were weak, his face was pale, and he was about to escape, when he heard a cold voice without the slightest emotion.

"Stand where you are, if you want to run, I'm sure you won't be able to get out of this room."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper finally couldn't hold on, and fainted as soon as he rolled his eyes.

Still in a coma, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a piercing chill.

His eyes widened instantly.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Su Chen sitting on the chair opposite him.

The shopkeeper hurriedly looked around, only to see that this was no longer the guest room just now, but a dark basement.

In a corner of the basement, dozens of corpses were piled up at the moment.

Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper instantly trembled, this is the dungeon under the inn, which is specially used to place the corpses of "guests".

At this moment, he was bound and thrown here, which means that his greatest secret has been discovered.

Su Chen saw that the shopkeeper opened his eyes, so he didn't talk nonsense, and asked him directly.

"Doing this kind of dirty thing under the nose of King Zhao, don't say that there is no one behind you to support you, tell me who it is?"

Hearing Su Chen's question, the shopkeeper hurriedly spoke to Su Chen.

"Who the hell are you, are you two Jin Wuwei's people?"
