Chapter Twenty-Four: Waiting for the Rabbit

On the morning of the second day of departure from Shiyu Village, Zhu Pingfan and his party came to a post station. The inn was fenced off, and there was a small two-story building in the courtyard where about seven or eight carriages could be parked. In the past two days, Zhu Pingfan has been driving while studying the map of Shiyu Village to and from East Stone City, and this post station is the only post station between East Stone City and Shiyu Village. Zhu Pingfan concluded that the people who sent the spirit jade to the City Lord's Mansion would definitely stay at this post station for a while or rest for one night, so he was ready to wait for the rabbit here.

Zhu Pingfan and the three of them parked the two carriages in the courtyard of the post station, got off the carriage and came to the post station hall. There were two tables of guests in the hall eating at this time, and Zhu Pingfan and the others found a table at random.

As soon as the three of them sat down, Xiao Er came to him with a smile and said, "The three of you need something, whether you want to eat or stay in the hotel"

Zhu Pingfan: "Little Er, first get us a table of good wine and good food, and then open three upper rooms." ”

Xiao Er: "No problem, wait a minute." After saying that, Xiao Er went to prepare wine and food.

"Ordinary, how can you be sure that the people from the City Lord's Mansion will definitely come. ”

Zhu Pingfan glanced at Chen Yuhan and said: "The master said that they would come, and they would definitely come, and the master's intuition is not something that you can understand." ”

Chen Yuhan said angrily: "Zhu Pingfan, do you want to quarrel?" ”

Da Zhuang said speechlessly: "You two have a small quarrel a day and a big quarrel for three days, aren't you tired, let's hurry up and finish eating and get down to business." ”

"What's the hurry, the master's intuition tells the master, according to the distance between East Stone City and Shiyu Village, the people from the City Lord's Mansion should arrive here this evening, don't worry, the master's spirit jade will not run away. ”

Chen Yuhan said dissatisfiedly: "What is your spiritual jade, those who see it understand it." ”

Zhu Pingfan glanced at Chen Yuhan and said: "When did the master say that he would give the master's spiritual jade to you as a disobedient girl, and not only was he disobedient, but he also had nothing to trouble me." ”

"I don't care, those who see it have a share, otherwise I will flip the table, and no one will get it in the end. After speaking, Chen Yuhan also showed a row of small white teeth and smiled at Zhu Pingfan. It means that you don't give me Lingyu to try.

Zhu Pingfan shook his head and said, "When you get the spirit jade, let's talk about the spirit jade, you two pig teammates had better not make any moths, otherwise you won't be able to get half a piece of spirit jade." ”

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xiao Er put the food on the table, and the three of them began to eat by themselves.

After dinner, Zhu Pingfan rested alone in the room, while Da Zhuang and Chen Yuhan went to do what Zhu Pingfan told the two of them to do last night.

In the evening, a dozen or so men in soldier armor rode horses and escorted three carriages towards the inn.

The group left a few people to guard the carriage, and the rest all came to the post hall hall. At the head of the group was a tall man in his twenties wearing a black robe and carrying a long sword behind his back, and shouted, "Xiao Er prepared some food and drink, and then fed the horse to us." ”

Xiao Er hurriedly responded: "Okay, then I will order the kitchen to prepare, and the military masters will rest and rest for a while."

The man in black shirt and one of the generals found a table to sit down, and the rest of the soldiers also found a table to sit down.

General: "It's still a day's journey from East Stone City, and it's good for us to rest for one night at this post station today." ”

Dongshicheng is a young family, and the old general is in the city lord's mansion to serve as the general of the city. Because he is old, he has trained his son to work in the city lord's mansion and is ready to take over his position. This time, the old general arranged for his youngest son to go to Shiyu Village to escort the Lingyu transported to the City Lord's Mansion.

Nian Wenliang, the third son of the Nian family, is twenty-five years old this year, tall and rugged-looking. Since he was a child, he has practiced martial arts with his father, and now he is a martial arts cultivator at the seventh level of the Body Refining Realm, and his long sword is very powerful.

Nian Wen nodded and said: "The soldiers are tired, and they have to travel for a day tomorrow." Why not take a night's rest. ”

General: "Nian Gongzi, I heard that this time you took over the escort mission of Shiyu Village, and after you go back, you will be arranged to be the captain of the guard army in the city defense army, Nian Gongzi is really young and promising." ”

"It's not my father's idea, my eldest brother is an inner disciple in the Shenbing Sect, and after the second brother was unfortunately killed, my father wanted me to take over his position, but I still envy my eldest brother, and I also want to join a major sect as a disciple to cultivate true arts. ”

General: "I heard that it is not easy to become a disciple of the Damen Sect, and the effort is several times that of ordinary people, and in the end, it may not be able to achieve anything." ”

Nian Wenliang sighed and said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, it's just that, you may not understand it." ”

At this time, Zhu Pingfan and Da Zhuang were pouring something into a jar of wine in the kitchen.

"Da Zhuang, why are you stingy, pour more, if you don't kill the very powerful martial arts cultivator you said, we will be miserable. ”

"If you can't do it ordinarily, if you pour too much wine, it will have a problem, and it will become the same as sesame paste, and a fool can see that there is a problem with the wine, let alone drink it. ”

"Then just in case, Da Zhuang, you go and crush this elixir and mix it into the meal. After that, Zhu Pingfan took out two hundred poison pills.

", come again, this elixir really tastes too big. I'm afraid I'll be found out when I put it in the dish. ”

"That's better than being killed by that powerful martial arts cultivator, let you put so much nonsense wherever you go. After that, the two of them sneakily tamped the ingredients in the kitchen.

As soon as the two of them finished working on the ingredients, the cook took the ingredients to cook.

And Zhu Pingfan and Da Zhuang were just about to sneak out of the kitchen when they heard a bang, and the two came back to see that the cook had fallen to the ground.

", the cook is hanging, what's the situation" Zhu Pingfan looked at Da Zhuang with a blank face.

"How do I know, I guess this idiot cook ate the ingredients"

Zhu Pingfan was speechless and said: "What should I do now, the cook is hanging, who will cook." ”

Da Zhuang was also speechless and said, "How can I cook vegetables, or you can try it." ”

Zhu Pingfan walked to the hot pot with black lines on his head, and then threw all the ingredients into the cauldron in one go, and picked up the vegetable shovel and flipped it around. The condiments are thrown into the pot as hard as if they don't want money. Half an hour Zhu Pingfan put all the dishes into a big basin and said: "It's done, do you want to taste the first time the master cooks, I feel that the color and flavor are complete"

Da Zhuang said with a black line: "Ordinary, I guess I'll accompany the cook after eating." ”

Zhu Pingfan also reflected: "Then don't eat it, it's okay next time the master is making it for you without ingredients."

After saying that, the two put the vegetable bowl next to the wine jar, then hid the cook's body, and finally turned around and disappeared into the kitchen.

On the other side, Chen Yuhan was busy digging in the afternoon, adding soil to the pit seven or eight meters deep and five meters wide, and carefully doing the art work. He also muttered, "It's so dark, you shouldn't be able to see it." After dealing with the big pit, Chen Yuhan obediently stood behind the right side of the big pit according to Zhu Pingfan's instructions.

When the post station Xiaoer came to the kitchen at this time, he saw a large pot of vegetables on the table that was a little blindfolded, and looked left and right to find no cook. Scratching his head, he took out a few plates and put the dishes into several plates. Then he walked out of the kitchen with a tray of a few dishes and two pots of wine, came to the table of Nian Wenliang and the generals, and said, "I've been waiting for a long time, the dishes are here." After speaking, he put a few plates of dishes and two pots of wine on Nian Wenliang's table, and then turned around and continued to go to the kitchen to get wine and food.

Zhu Pingfan and Da Zhuang hid on the second floor and secretly watched the situation in the hall on the first floor.

The general picked up the wine jug and poured a bowl of wine for himself and Nian Wenliang and said, "Young man, you have been traveling all the way, I will give you a bowl first." ”

Nian Wenliang: "Don't be so polite. After that, he also picked up the wine bowl and touched the general, and both of them drank it all.

The general picked up the chopsticks, picked up the dishes on the plate and stuffed them into his mouth. After a bite of the dish, the general's face was ugly and said: "This dish tastes weird, and it is very salty." After speaking, he picked up the wine jug and was about to pour the wine, but he vomited blood in his mouth and poured it directly.

Nian Wenliang was so frightened that he stood up suddenly, looked at the dead general and shouted: "The wine and food are poisonous", and the soldiers resting in the hall suddenly became chaotic, and rushed to Nian Wenliang's side.

Nian Wenliang suddenly felt that his body was hot, and his internal organs hurt like a knife. Hurriedly sat down on the spot and meditated cross-legged and shouted: "I am poisoned, protect me for my Fa." ”

And Da Zhuang and Zhu Pingfan have been staring at the situation in the hall, seeing that Nian Wenliang was poisoned, Da Zhuang picked up the Xuantie knife and was about to rush downstairs, Zhu Pingfan grabbed Da Zhuang and said: "The plan has changed, don't fight hard, pretend to be defeated and flee in the direction of Dakeng after two rounds of fighting, I don't have time to explain and listen to me." ”

Da Zhuang looked at Zhu Pingfan and nodded, and then jumped to the hall on the first floor and killed those soldiers. ”
