Chapter 19: The Taoist Priest Kills
East City of the Nine Shadows.
Silver Sparrow Restaurant.
"Little Er, a pot of soju!"
As soon as the old Taoist priest entered the restaurant, he shouted at Xiao Er, who was leaning on the pillar and dozing off not far away.
Due to the excessive volume, it attracted the attention of everyone present.
"Isn't the Taoist priest not drinking?"
Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and muttered a little puzzled, but in fact, he just didn't want to serve, he just wanted to close early and go back to rest.
"Who told you that Taoist priests can't drink alcohol?!"
"That's just the casual speculation of some people who don't know how to pretend to understand! Hurry up! There is no shortage of silver in the poor road! ”
The old Taoist priest glanced at Xiao Er and said with a little show-off.
"Well, wait a minute!"
Xiao Er glanced in the direction of the shopkeeper, reluctantly agreed, turned around and walked to the back kitchen.
The old Taoist priest glanced around, and actually sat directly at the table of the two young men at the door.
"Dao Chief, there are people here."
One of the young men frowned and stared at the old Taoist priest with a somewhat dissatisfied face.
"Isn't there a place for this? How about we share a table? It's a little more lively, and the poor road can invite the two of them to drink. ”
The old Taoist priest smiled and did not leave.
"There are so many empty seats next to us, and we are not used to sitting with strangers."
The young man pointed to the other tables next to him and said in a deep voice.
"Huh? As the saying goes, meeting is fate, since there is fate, wouldn't it be a pity not to have a drink together? ”
"Come on, come on, you're welcome, the dishes are cold."
The old Taoist priest smiled and waved his hand, and as he spoke, he actually picked up the chopsticks, unceremoniously picked up the dishes on the chopsticks table, and chewed them with relish.
Such a cheeky Taoist priest, the two young men are also the only ones in their lives, although their faces are full of resistance, but after glancing at each other, they still acquiesced to the behavior of the old Taoist priest, and did not have a seizure.
Soon, the sleepy-eyed Xiao Er walked out of the back kitchen with a pot of wine, put it in front of the old Taoist priest and turned back to the position just now, he thought that the three people at the table were acquainted.
The old Taoist priest unscrewed the wine jug, directly raised his head and poured a few sips, and smashed his mouth a few times satisfied.
Looking at the old Taoist priest's skinless and faceless appearance, the faces of the two young men were full of disgust, and after looking at the time, it seemed that they had decided to leave first.
"You two are waiting for someone here, aren't you?"
However, at this moment, the old Taoist priest who was familiar with him opened his mouth again.
"Nope."
The young man who spoke just now glanced at the old Taoist priest and said impatiently.
"It's not waiting for someone, it's looking for someone."
The old Taoist priest continued to ask questions while eating the dishes.
Hearing this, the two young men subconsciously glanced at each other, and then couldn't help but look at the old Taoist priest in front of them.
"Coincidentally, Poor Dao is also looking for someone, may I ask the two of you, have you ever heard of Qingxuanmen?"
The old Taoist priest cautiously glanced around, leaned in front of the two young men, and asked in a low voice.
After listening to the old Taoist priest's question, the two young men frowned, and their faces showed a trace of obvious doubt, then shook their heads, got up and prepared to leave.
"I heard that the imperial court has been chasing and killing a kid surnamed Li recently, I don't know why? Did this kid do anything? ”
Without waiting for the two to leave, the old Taoist priest spoke again.
Hearing this, the two young men who were about to leave couldn't help but be shocked, and immediately stopped and sat back in their chairs.
"Who the hell is Your Excellency?!"
The other young man squinted his eyes, stared at the old Taoist priest tightly, and asked in a deep voice, and as he spoke, his right hand had already touched the short blade hidden under the placket of his clothes.
"The answer is wrong, the first chance has been missed, you have one more chance."
The old Taoist priest raised his head and took a sip of wine, and said with a smile.
"Who the hell is Your Excellency?!"
The young man's eyes widened, and his right hand was already gripping the hilt of the sword!
"Run out!"
"Little Er, the bill has been settled!"
The old Taoist priest laughed, and as he spoke, he got up, shook off the Buddha dust, and gestured to Xiao Er, who was dozing off the pillar not far away, put the wine money on the table, and turned around and walked away.
The two young men sat on the chairs, watching the figure of the old Taoist priest leaving, motionless.
Xiao Er, who was not far away, agreed, waved his hand in the direction where the old Taoist priest left, and then continued to doze off, and the hara was about to flow out.
I don't know how long it took, but the guests in the restaurant were basically gone, leaving only the two young men sitting near the door.
The shopkeeper glanced at the hour, shook his slightly bloated body, picked up a handkerchief and wiped his eyes, and began to count the accounts of the day, by the way, he woke up Xiao Er, signaling that it was time to close.
"Two guest officers, we're closing, you really should go back and rest early."
Xiao Er agreed, rubbed his eyes and came to the table at the door, and said while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and the wine money left by the old Taoist priest.
But the two young men were still sitting in their chairs, and they didn't pay any attention to him.
"I said, you two, you've all been sitting all night, we really should be closed, we can't keep doing this, right?"
Seeing that the two didn't react, Xiao Er complained with a bitter face.
Open the door to do business, there is no reason to be a guest, but he really can't stand it.
But after listening to his words, the two young men were still indifferent, like two sculptures.
"Two? You're not going to fall asleep too, are you? ”
Xiao Er rubbed his eyes, and as he spoke, he reached out and patted the two of them.
But just as his hand was finished, two young men who were originally motionless suddenly fell to the ground!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Er couldn't help but scream, and his soul was scared away.
After a closer look, I saw that two fine lines appeared on the necks of the two young men almost at the same time, and then a trace of scarlet blood gushed out from the fine lines!
The faces of the two young men turned a terrifying black and purple almost instantly!
Apparently dead for a long time!
"Murder! Kill! ”
"Shopkeeper! He's dead! He's dead! ”
Xiao Er's face was like ashes, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, pointing to the two corpses on the ground, and screaming in horror.
The shopkeeper who heard the movement was stunned, hurriedly walked out from behind the counter, walked quickly to the door, looked at the two corpses in the pool of blood, and instantly lost his face.
"Quick! Notify the door owner! ”
The shopkeeper's lips trembled, and he ordered the chef who had just run out of the back kitchen in horror.
She is a powerless woman, how has she ever seen such a scene!
...
Nine gates.
Yunfei lay on the bed, tossing and turning, never able to sleep.
It had been a few days since the secret letter exposing Wuji Lou was sent, but he didn't see any action from Du Yingwei's side, and he didn't know what was going on.
Seeing that Wujilou's business is getting better and better, his heart is getting more and more angry day by day.
Especially after hearing that the Jinghong Gang went to Wujilou to win over Wuji Gongzi, the intention of seizing Wujilou is even more certain, if Wujilou and Jinghong Gang join forces, it will be difficult to deal with.
But fortunately, I heard that Yan Long did not get any benefits in Wuji Building, and was seriously injured.
"Knock knock!"
At this moment, a violent knock on the door sounded, making Yun Fei, who was pondering on the bed, couldn't help but shiver.
"Who?! You're dead?! ”
Yun Fei turned his head to look at the door and scolded angrily.
"Door Master! Oh no, dead man! ”
"Someone is killed in the restaurant!"
An anxious voice knocked on the door and shouted.
Hearing the words, Yun Fei was stunned for a moment, turned over and sat up, got dressed, walked quickly to the door and opened the door.
"What's going on?! Make it clear! ”
Yun Fei glared at the visitor and asked in a deep voice.
"The owner, someone came to Yinque Restaurant just now, saying that a guest suddenly died in the restaurant! And one death is two! ”
The hand replied solemnly.
"Let's go!"
Yun Fei frowned, didn't think about it, and hurriedly rushed to the Silver Bird Restaurant.
...
Silver Sparrow Restaurant.
When Yunfei arrived with a large number of men, the restaurant was already closed and the door was closed.
And when he knocked on the door and saw the two corpses lying in a pool of blood, his face instantly sank.
After examination, Yun Fei had already concluded that the fatal injuries were the two fine lines on his neck, and other than that, there were no scars.
But according to the description of the shopkeeper and Xiao Er, there was no fight at that time...
