Chapter Seventy-Six: Escape

Previous Chapter

In fact, the owner of this inn is also under the name of the owner of the shop where Yue Xiaofei came to the stage to tell the story, so he deliberately arranged a few people to live in the upper room here, and the conditions are much better than the inn at the beginning.

But tonight, Yue Xiaofei couldn't sleep at all.

The second to fifth rooms in the east wing on the third floor of this inn were all occupied by Yue Xiaofei and others, the first room was Li Mu, the second room was Xiaocui, and then Lin Rusheng and Yue Xiaofei, at this time the night was dark, so the doors of the four rooms were all closed.

The inn has four floors, and it is also a building of some height in this town, so the moonlight does not receive any height of obstruction around it, and is directly poured on the asphalt-colored tiles, and some of the paint that has not been blown off by the rain and dust is slightly reflected in the moonlight, which is very cold.

A pair of footsteps in night boots stepped on the cornice, and when the two touched, they were as silent and soft as the moonlight fell on the tiles, only a slight tremor reminded the owner of the footsteps that he had landed. The man was dressed in a dark night suit, but in an instant he disappeared into the shadows and became silent.

The man came to the edge of the top floor and rolled down, and landed silently on the drainage eaves channel on the periphery of the third-floor room, and walked quickly but quietly and steadily along the edge, and soon came to the outside of the first room, close to the side window, close to his ears, and close his eyes to listen carefully to the sound of the house.

At this time, all the subtle sounds of the periphery were expelled from his ears, and he tried to listen to the sounds in the room to make sure that one could still hear people moving or other noises.

After a moment of probing, he heard only a slight snort, and it seemed that the people in the room were still quiet, perhaps asleep.

Just in case, he took out a slender bamboo pipe and poked into the carved wooden window frame, lifted the face towel and carefully approached the port to let out a breath, and the fine medicinal powder originally placed in the bamboo pipe was blown into the room, instantly drifting into the air.

The man waited for a while, almost calculated that the effect of the medicine had worked, broke the bamboo pipe with one hand and threw it on the ground, and slowly exerted force with both hands, silently lifted the window frame, supported a little distance with the bracket, and leaned into the room.

It was quiet and dark, the air was filled with the unknown smell of incense, and the drugs that had been blown into the room had probably dissipated. The man walked on tiptoe, and immediately turned his gaze to the position of the bed, and immediately motioned to a figure with half body covered by the futon lying on the bed, and at this moment he was leaning back so that the man could not see his face clearly.

Although he was asleep, the target of the infiltrator did not seem to be on him, and after confirming that the person in the bed would not wake up, the latter began to grope around, but in a moment he found a flannel bag behind the bed table, and the man looked happy, put the bag on his shoulder, along with the internal guards, and turned to speed up his pace to evacuate.

"Where are you going, boy?"

A yin and yin sound sounded in the room, the person turned his head violently when he heard the sound, and under the hazy light in the room, Yue Xiaofei was lying on the bed in the posture of the concubine lying on her side, supporting her head with one hand and smiling cheaply.

The eyes of the two instantly intertwined, and the man immediately turned around and accelerated out of the window with the things in his hand, the speed was staggering, although he did not stop the thief, but Yue Xiaofei did not look worried at all, but sat up cross-legged and looked at the half-open window with his hands folded, and did not speak.

"Bang!"

A crash sounded, the wooden window frame shattered violently, and at the same time, a black figure rushed into the room in a backward shot, and as a broken wooden bar fell to the ground, he didn't even have time to moan, Li Mu appeared outside the window, holding the flannel bag that had been snatched away before in one hand, and the drug bamboo tube discarded by the thief in the other hand, and spoke lightly.

"With this kind of disposable drugging tool, it seems that you are not an ordinary little thief. ”

Li Mu said and threw away the broken bamboo pipe in his hand, Yue Xiaofei got out of bed, and at the same time, Lin Rusheng pushed the door and walked in, holding a candle in his hand, and closed the door casually.

"Alright young man, everyone who should be here is here, let's be honest. ”

Yue Xiaofei walked over, helped Lin Rusheng light the rest of the lighting candles in the house, and then asked, but the man just covered his chest as if he had been injured by Li Mu's hand before, and did not reply.

Yue Xiaofei sang with a white face, and then it was naturally the turn of the black face to appear, Li Mu faded away the outer flannel bag, revealing the sword box inside, and took out a sword and pressed it against the young man's neck.

"If you dare to steal something, you should know what it's in, right? ”

Li Mu exerted his strength, and the tip of the sword pierced the skin to leave blood, but the young man only frowned slightly, still did not speak.

"Put away the sword, it doesn't have to be like this. ”

Lin Rusheng opened his mouth to stop the half-squatting body from opening.

"These two swords are the relics of my father, and they are of great significance to you, but for you, they are just two blades, why bother so much to steal them?"

The young man's face softened a little, but he still didn't speak.

"Young man, since we can catch you, it means that we have calculated your actions, and it is useless to die, do you know what it means to confess leniently and resist strictly?"

Yue Xiaofei was not worried that the young man would not confess, he had a way to make others speak, as long as he was not dumb, he could always get the information he wanted, so this opening said all the routine lines that he often said in his previous life.

The young man really didn't have any special reaction after hearing this, but looked up at Lin Rusheng's calm face, sighed, and was a little reluctant to speak.

"That's it, the master said that if he was arrested in the future, he would accept his fate, and those who did this would know that there would be such a day!"

Hearing this, Yue Xiaofei said in his heart that there is still a lineage in your industry, who is your master?

The young man didn't know what Yue Xiaofei was thinking, and said to himself.

"Since I was arrested today, it can only mean that I am not skilled in my craft, I confess, I just heard on the road that there are a few incredible people living in the inn near here, and there is a person who looks like a scholar with something priceless, if I can get this thing and hand it over to the upper family, there will be a very generous reward, so I moved the idea. ”

"How do you know that we are the people you are looking for?" Lin Rusheng spoke.

"The news given by the previous family, we also acted in accordance with the rules and instructions. ”

"Who's your boss?"

"I can't say this, even if you kill me, I can't say it, no matter what, we don't dare to betray the upper family, that is no different from dying, because I said that I will definitely be known by the upper family, and I will definitely offend the upper family....."

Before the young man finished speaking, Li Mu kicked him directly, and blood oozed from the corner of the young man's mouth.

"Do you still dare to bargain back? Don't you want you to be honest? Do you really think we don't dare to do anything to you?" Li Mu was a little impatient.

The young man didn't open his mouth to say what he was behind when he died, and he returned to his previous state of silence, and Li Mu was angry and wanted to do it again.

"Wait!"

Yue Xiaofei suddenly realized something, raised his hand to stop Li Mu's movements, squatted down and grabbed the young man's collar violently, and asked loudly.

"What do you mean by that?"

The young man looked at Yue Xiaofei's face and suddenly smiled.

At this moment, there was a slight sound from the eaves outside the window, and then the drug disgust that was visible to the naked eye floated outside the window, the young man only smelled for a while and looked a little groggy, Yue Xiaofei let go of his collar forcefully, Li Mu and Lin Rusheng quickly blew out the candles, and the house became dark again, and the moonlight at this time slowly faded, not as bright as the first half of the night, but it could also make the people outside the house not notice the signs of activity in the house.

"What now?"

Yue Xiaofei leaned closer and asked softly.

"What else can I do, get out of here quickly, no one will help us in trouble this time, so we can only go for the best plan. Li Mu replied softly.

"What about Xiaocui, what should he do?" Yue Xiaofei was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, we expected something to happen tonight, but we didn't expect it to be so tricky, but I've arranged for my friend to place her out of town, and she's guarded, and now we need to meet her up and get out of here. ”

Yue Xiaofei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and at the same time, the footsteps and the sound of tiles moving that could be heard inside the house were getting louder and louder, which did not mean that the people outside did not have basic kung fu, but that there were too many people, so even the subtle sounds would be accumulated and amplified.

"When they show up, we'll go! Li Mu spoke heavily.

At this moment, two men in black turned and appeared on the edge of the broken window frame, blocking the only remaining moonlight in the house, and it was suddenly dark.
