Chapter 21: Sleepless Nights
In Qin Yu's opinion, neither of them was seriously injured, at least their injuries were much lighter than the one that the shopkeeper gave him, and he was still aching faintly in the back of his head.
In Qin Yu's mind, since Feng Sanniang had let herself go in public, she would not be entangled in a misunderstanding, otherwise it would affect her prestige in the rivers and lakes.
Although Feng Sanniang has no prestige in the rivers and lakes, otherwise Qin Yu would not have heard of the Tongfu Inn before, but that also means that the prestige of the entire Northwest Martial Arts is not obvious, but the name of Feng Sanniang in the Tianxia Pass generation is worth more than gold.
It's a pity that Qin Yu has been out on a mission, and although he is heavily valued by Duan Shihong, the master of the Heavenly Sword Gate, he rarely moves in this place, so it is normal that he has not heard of Feng Sanniang and Tongfu Inn.
Qi Yufei was the same, even if he had done his homework before he came, he also knew something about the characters on the ground, but he would never have thought that he would find an inn at random, which was the legendary Tongfu Inn.
His subordinates casually went downstairs to drink, and teased Feng Sanniang with a few words, such a degree of unluck can be compared with that of the author of this book.
In fact, the upset Qi Yufei is not sleeping now, originally he also wanted to have calm every time there is a big event as his father expected, and during the day, Qi Yufei also pretended to be confident in front of Zhao Ping and Qin Yu.
It's a pity that Qi Yufei is only a young man in his early twenties after all, even with his father's careful teaching and the support of the entire Famous Sword Villa, but when he really faces the deceit and sword shadow in the rivers and lakes alone, he is still panicked and even frightened.
This also made the young owner do some things that seemed a little naïve, such as taking Zhao Ping, who had an unknown background, with him, and even letting Qin Yu, who had just failed in the mission, connect with the secret agent.
This mission was originally for Qi Yufei to go in person, but because of the timidity and uneasiness in his heart, he chose to let Qin Yu go for him.
Of course, Qi Yufei will never admit that this is his cowardly choice, but will regard this as part of the plan, so that Zhao Ping and Qin Yu are one in the light and the other in the dark, and he is hidden behind the control of the overall situation, but he does not know that what he did is completely exposed to the eyes of the internal guard.
But in the opinion of Qi Yufei, who didn't know about it, it was a pity that Qin Yu standing at the door of the inn and the two people he was carrying showed that Qi Yufei still thought about the world too simply.
After all, things in this world are not as good as heaven, Qi Yufei would not have thought that the person who connected with Qin Yu would be a headless corpse, and Qin Yu would not have thought that he had just climbed out of the courtyard wall, and was knocked out by the shopkeeper with a burning stick.
Of course, the shopkeeper would never have thought that he had been following him for most of the night, and when he finally found a chance to teach Qin Yu, a bastard boy, a "fairy" fell from the sky and smashed himself unconscious, which was the most unexpected thing.
Wang Ming not only knocked out the shopkeeper at this time, but also smashed the two guards of Tianxia Pass to stun. Just now, even Situ Yun, who had always been at odds with the internal guards, had to join the internal guards to find the origin of the white light in the sky.
Of course, these things are not clear to the people in the inn, and they don't need to know yet. In the inn, not only Qi Yufei was worried that Qin Yu's mission was not resting, but our protagonist Zhao Ping was also lying on the bed and thinking nonsense.
Even if his body was too tired to move after lying down, he still tossed and turned on the bed in half a dream because of the fear of the unknown. Zhao Ping is not the reincarnation of Marshal Tianpeng after all, and he can't sleep peacefully wherever he encounters.
He is just an ordinary person, even after countless time-traveling novels, he is still just an ordinary office worker. Traveling to a strange world can be a good thing for an adventurer. But for Zhao Ping, who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains, there are not only distant opportunities, but also immediate life and death crises.
Even if there was that Taoist boy who came out of nowhere and gave him a newbie gift bag, it couldn't give Zhao Ping the slightest sense of security. On this hardboard bed, which was not very comfortable, Zhao Ping slept as if he was being tortured, until Qin Yu's knock on the door woke him up.
As soon as Qin Yu appeared at the door of the inn, he directly woke up these people who were pretending to sleep, and the first person to come out to open the door for him happened to be the inn's account room.
This old man also didn't sleep all night, unlike other people, the old account room is not sleepless, and he can be used as a bookkeeper in the Tongfu Inn, which shows that he is also a person with a story, and this bit of wind and waves will not make the old man's heart wave.
It's a pity that the cook in the same room as the old account room really didn't let the old man worry, lying on the bed and tossing and turning.
As a cook, his figure is obviously unqualified, not only skinny but also short, which makes people wonder if he has to put a stool under his feet when he stir-frying.
But it is undeniable that the chef's cooking skills are very good, and people who have eaten his dishes are full of praise, especially the first-hand knife is a must, an ordinary kitchen knife, the knife light can fly to see a piece of beef, cut as thin as a cicada's wings.
The cook and the shopkeeper came to the Tongfu Inn at the same time, and no one knew about the previous experiences of the two of them except Feng Sanniang.
I only knew that when they first came, the cook only had half a life left, and he was carried by the shopkeeper who was also seriously injured. After that, the two of them recuperated in the inn, and after they recovered from their injuries, there were two less first-class masters on the rivers and lakes, and there was one more cook and a shopkeeper in the Tongfu Inn.
The rest of the inn wouldn't ask them about their stories, but one thing was for sure, the relationship between the cook and the shopkeeper was excellent, even beyond the realm of life and death.
Originally, the cook wanted to teach Qin Yu a lesson with the shopkeeper, but he was stopped by the old account room, even if he didn't know what was going on outside, the old man who had been through the storm for a long time could see that it was an eventful time.
In the inn alone, there are not only Qi Yufei and Zhao Ping, but also several other guests of unknown origin. Especially the wine and meat monk who stayed in the hotel a few days ago is not necessarily his opponent. If these two first-class masters leave the inn at the same time, something will be troublesome.
After a little hesitation, the cook gave up his plan to go out, after all, in the chef's opinion, the shopkeeper who was already a first-class master, as long as he didn't die to provoke those people in the tower, he didn't teach a disciple to be caught, so he didn't sneak out with the shopkeeper.
But after dark, the cook's heart was always uneasy, and he always felt that his brother would have an accident, and he couldn't sleep again and again, and even the tired account room stayed up all night with him and waited.
When Qin Yu appeared at the door of the inn, the cook immediately turned over, picked up the kitchen knife that never left his body, and was about to go out. But he was stopped by the old man raising his hand, and a look signaled him to be calm, and he put on his coat unhurriedly, and walked out of the room to open the door for Qin Yu.
The cook followed closely, and when he saw the shopkeeper who was caught by Qin Yu, he almost ran away, and directly used the kitchen knife in his hand to vivisect Qin Yu.
Fortunately, after Qin Yu Jiling sensed the murderous aura of the other party, he hurriedly spoke: "He's fine, but he was knocked unconscious, and he can wake up after resting for a while with his skills." ”
As a first-class master chef, he naturally knew that although Dian Xiaoer was unconscious, his breathing was stable, and there should be no major problem, so he endured his anger and didn't say a word, and directly took Dian Xiaoer from Qin Yu's hands and carried him to his room.
Don't look at the short cook holding the tall shopkeeper, it looks a little funny, but his steps are very steady and his hands are very steady, and the shopkeeper didn't feel the slightest bump and was carried into the back room by the cook.
