Chapter 21: Danger lurks
This place is really sparsely populated, and the street has been stretching along the dark direction, thinking that there is no end, but who would have thought that after this inn, there will be no bright lights over there, and it will be dark.
"Young master. You're back. The black shadow did leap in the direction of the door, but it stopped beside Shangguan Beiling and made a gesture.
He was dressed in a tight black tunic with white piping embroidery on the cuffs and an ordinary-looking sword pinned to his waist. The main thing was that his face, half covered by a black cloth, so that only his eyes could be seen.
Why do you want to dress up like this?
"Hmm. Are you okay here?" Shangguan Beiling asked as he looked into the dark inn.
Why do you want to use you? Just when Lingxi was puzzled, there was a sudden sound of rustling in the inn, and then, "Hello young master!"
More than a dozen people spoke in unison. But they could still suppress it and reduce their voices, otherwise even the few pedestrians around the inn would be attracted here.
"Light the lamp!" Shangguan Beiling ordered.
"Yes. As soon as he finished speaking, a light lit up in the inn.
In an instant, the whole picture of the inn was also revealed, with some shabby tables and chairs, a faded red lantern hanging on the staircase on the first floor, and a big wine word printed on one wall...... The most striking thing is that the station is unusually neatly dressed in all kinds of clothes.
It's just scary. There are so many people in front of them who stay in this inn, but they don't light the lights, too......
"These are all disciples I brought from the sect to investigate this matter with me. Shangguan Beiling answered the question as if he was a prophet.
"Why did you lock them in the inn?" Bai Junqian asked.
However, this is what everyone else thinks.
"I didn't lock them up, the lock was just a hidden eye. It was often closed before I bought it secretly. If you don't continue the previous state, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. ”
Hearing this, Bai Junqian didn't speak, but just thought that there were so many people selling demon cultivators here, and it was indeed necessary to investigate carefully.
"Why are you going in and talking so much at the door?" said the letter impatiently.
At a glance, it turned out to be helping Shun carry the late autumn.
"Then let's go in. Shangguan Bei Zero greeted.
So a few people walked in, and when they saw that there was still an empty table, they sat down around and asked the disciples of the Tianyi Sect to put Shenqiu in the room on the second floor.
"The young master drinks tea. The disciple of the Tianyi Sect handed over a pot of tea and a cup.
"Wait, Luo Tian, you bring a few more cups, there are still a few people here. Shangguan Beiling looked at them for a while, and said with a sense of inappropriateness.
"Yes. The disciple named Luo Tian immediately did so.
After a while, the cups were complete, but no one started pouring water to drink.
Bai Junqian didn't even take off their masks, they just watched silently.
"Why don't you drink it? Are you afraid that it is poisonous inside?" Shangguan Beiling asked.
Bai Junqian smiled: "No, no. It's not that you, the innkeeper, haven't done it yet? With that, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shangguan Beiling.
In fact, what Bai Junqian was thinking at this time was that with his strength, he didn't have to be afraid of ambushes when he entered this strange inn. But if it's poisoned, it's not necessarily.
Who said that the Tianyi Sect must be decent...... It's still a little more precautionary.
"Why bother with this, I've already drunk a lot of water before, and now I just don't want to drink it. Shangguan Beiling replied, and then pushed the teacup a little farther away.
"This tea is not thirst-quenching, but contemplative. I just saw that scene in that Jiuhua Building, and I had to drink some tea to purify my heart. Bai Junqian said solemnly and pushed the teacup back again.
"No, I'm used to that kind of scene. Shangguan Beiling said.
Eventually, the two of them began to move their hands, pushing and shoving the poor teacup on a table.
And Lingxi also faintly felt that the table was trembling, shook his head and said helplessly: "Is this water poisonous? ”
It was that under the attack of that evil qi before, Shangguan Beiling almost spared no effort to support the defensive enchantment, and still pulled Ye Xuanji with him in such a critical situation.
These are enough to see that Shangguan Bei Ling is worthy of her trust.
"Hmm. Shangguan Beiling responded, but it always felt like it was squeezed out of the gritted teeth. Immediately let go of the teacup, and the tea inside splashed on the table.
"I'll drink first. After that, Shangguan Bei Ling drank it all.
The corners of Bai Junqian's mouth rose.
"Come, Miss Ye drink tea. After Shangguan Beiling put down the cup, he used another cup to hand the tea he had poured to Lingxi.
"Uh...... Thanks a lot. Lingxi withdrew the hand she wanted to get the teacup, and turned her hand to catch the tea that Shangguan Beiling handed her.
At this moment, a hand separated Lingxi's hand that was about to hold the teacup.
It turned out to be Bai Junqian, and he said, "Wait." ”
Everyone looked at him, wondering what was wrong?
I saw Bai Junqian and said slowly: "Lingxi can come by himself, if you drink tea, you have to pour it from others, and you have developed a habit of pampering." ”
"???" Lingxi looked confused. She's still pampered, and Shangguan Bei Ling is just polite, right?
"Come, Lingxi pour it himself. Bai Junqian said as he handed the teapot and teacup to Lingxi.
Helpless, Lingxi had no choice but to take it, take off the mask, and drink.
After a moment, both Xin and Shun glanced at Shangguan Beiling on the side, Shangguan Beiling wanted to see what I was doing, and then quickly took his eyes off Lingxi's face.
At this moment, a figure appeared in the light of the house outside.
"Who?!" The people in the room stood up at once, but the figure flashed in front of the window.
In this place where there are only a few people, snooping outside the window, and after being discovered, they immediately run away, which is certainly not a good thing.
"Chase!" Bai Junqian said, and then Xin and Shun both followed, and Lingxi only looked at the place where they were staring.
As a result, as soon as he got out of the door, Bai Junqian said, "Shun, you stay here to protect Lingxi." With that, Bai Junqian and Xin Fei came out.
Bai Junqian is afraid of the sound of the east and west.
It's just the figure that moves quickly in their field of vision, dressed in white and with a white mask...... Thinking like this, Bai Junqian suddenly remembered that the person who cast that powerful spell on the second floor of Jiuhua Building was also dressed in white.
Immediately, Shangguan Beiling also chased out, and some of the disciples of his sect were ordered to stay at this inn, and the other part chased out with him.
"Hehehehehe. The next moment, the strange laughter was incessant, and there was a sense of treachery and horror for no reason.
Could it be the same person?
