Chapter five hundred and twenty first sudden heavy rain
It is said that since Ling Yun set out, he has been on the road, eating on the road, and resting on the road. It can be said that he slept in the open air.
There are misfortunes for people and good fortune at night, and there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky.
It was going to be night that day, and unfortunately, they encountered a rainy day. Fortunately, there was an inn not far ahead, and they were able to enter and rest.
Yang Sanniu got Ling Yun's permission, trotted to the inn counter and said, "Waiter, please free up ten rooms. We want to stay in the hotel, and one of them needs to be a good guest room."
The waiter looked up and murmured a few words. His face instantly put on a happy smile. He bent over and was particularly enthusiastic. He held a pen in his hand and drew a few pictures on the accounting book. He said loudly, "Okay! Ten guest rooms, one room."
Superior room, nine ordinary rooms, please come to me!"
Therefore, a group of twenty-six people headed by Ling Yun entered the Fuyuan Inn to rest on this stormy day.
This inn is quite weird. This is because such a remote place should not have such a big inn. However, it was raining and the group of them were very wet. They were in a hurry to go to the room to change clothes, so they did not notice this subtlety.
question.
Ling Yun asked for two adjacent rooms, one for him and one for Yang Sanniu. As for the remaining rooms, they were allocated by themselves and did not intend to interfere.
There was a knock on the door, Yang Sanniu opened the door, took a washbasin, put it on the round stool, turned to look at Ling Yun and said, "Master, this is the hot water brought by the waiter. Please wash it first."
During this time of traveling, even if I was sitting in the carriage, I still felt tired. I knew that Yang Sanniu was also tired, not to mention that most of his clothes were soaked, so he said, "Sanniu, let's go first."
Come on! You go back and have a rest first, I can do the rest by myself!"
When Yang Sanniu heard this, his heart warmed up, but he did not move. Instead, he shook his head and said, "Master, Sanniu is not tired yet. When the master rests, Sanniu can go back to his room."
Not tired, those are just polite words.
The mountain road is rugged and bumpy, and even riding a horse is bumpy and tiring.
"Sanniu, we have to continue our journey tomorrow. Besides, there is nothing to do now, so you should go down and rest!"
"That's...okay!"
Faced with Ling Yun's repeated persuasion, Yang Sanniu did not insist on refusing. Instead, he put the hot water and prepared food on the table and withdrew.
After Yang Sanniu left, Ling Yun immediately took off all his clothes, then washed his cheeks and changed into clean clothes. After finishing his work, he stopped, sat on the table, and started eating.
When we were almost done eating, we suddenly heard a knock on the door. It turned out to be the waiter coming up to clear the dishes.
After just eating, Ling Yun didn't want to lie down on the bed to rest, so he took out a stool and sat by the window. His original intention was to take a look at the scenery outside the window, but at this time, the rain was still falling, mixed with bursts of rain.
A strong wind was blowing, and through the window, except for the rain, nothing else could be seen.
It took only half a cup of tea. I don’t know whether it was because of the fatigue of the journey or because I easily fell asleep after eating. Ling Yun suddenly felt drowsy, his eyelids kept fighting, and his whole body was exhausted, so he dragged his tired body and fell directly on the bed.
.
At this time, in the kitchen in the backyard of the inn, a group of people were sitting around the dining table. After careful calculation, there were six people sitting here.
At this time, the person sitting at the front said, "Lao San, has Lao Wu come back?"
The man named Lao San looked back, shook his head and replied, "Brother, not yet."
The boss paused for a moment, glanced at the door, and found that no one was coming, so he said, "Since the fifth boss didn't come back, let's wait a little longer."
The third child's eyes flashed, he hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "Brother, there are twenty-six people in this group, do we really want to kill them all?"
The boss turned to look at him, squinted his eyes and said, "What, what worries do you have, third brother?"
The third child hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, I just feel that the target of this group of twenty-six people is too big. If they all kill them, the nearby officers and soldiers will definitely not turn a blind eye, and they will probably get us into trouble."
."
Upon hearing this, the boss looked around at everyone and said, "Do you feel the same way?"
The second child was the first to stand up and said, "Brother, I think the third child's concerns are reasonable. Although we are not benevolent, we are not cruel either. Furthermore, we only killed one or two people at a time before, so the target is not big.
I can barely get by if I muddle through."
After a pause, he continued, "But this time is different. Most of the people in this group are obviously Lianjiazi, and judging from their appearance, they seem to be protecting the young master. Brother, if we kill them, what will happen?
Won’t this create an irreversible situation for us?”
As soon as the second child finished speaking, all eyes turned to the boss.
"Well~ what the second and third children said is not unreasonable. The goal of this group of people is indeed too big. Moreover, just looking at that young man, he is not an ordinary person. But... do you know why I decided to take action?"
The third child hurriedly asked, "Brother, why is this?"
Others also echoed, "Yes! Boss, why are you doing this?"
The boss sighed softly and said with a sense of helplessness, "Okay! I originally wanted to wait for the fifth boss to come back and explain it to you in detail, but now that I see how anxious you are, I will give you a thorough explanation first."
The fourth child is good at observing words and expressions. When he heard what the elder said, he felt that something was unusual, so he couldn't bear to express his guess.
"Brother, what's the happy event?"
"Um?"
The eldest brother was startled, and turned to look at the fourth child, but before he could speak, the sixth child intervened, "A happy event? No way? Fourth brother, what happy event can there be for this for no reason? But these people who came here today
He looks quite fat, fourth brother, tell me, is this a happy event?"
The boss glanced at everyone and said with a smile, "Haha... Actually, the fourth boss's guess was right. There is indeed a big happy event today."
When he heard about the happy event, the third child thought it would be of great benefit, so his eyes lit up, he kept rubbing his hands and asked, "Oh? Brother, what's the good news?"
The boss looked at everyone's expectant eyes and did not mean to speak. Instead, he looked at them quietly, as if to whet their appetite.
The third child couldn't help complaining, "Brother, if there is a happy event, please don't hang on to us. It's so uncomfortable."
When the others saw this, they all said in unison, "Yes! Brother, tell me quickly! Brothers are waiting to hear it!"
The boss chuckled and pretended to be mysterious, "I'm not afraid to tell you that this time is different from the past. It is a shocking and happy event. As long as this matter is done well, we will no longer have to live a life of licking the edge of the knife."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and even their breathing became much heavier.
The fourth child couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, this...why is this?"
The boss said calmly for a moment, "I'm not afraid to tell you, someone came to me a few days ago and said that a group of people will pass by here these days..."
"Brother, as long as we do what they say, we can..."
"That's right, the people above said that as long as we complete this matter, all our previous activities of killing people and stealing goods will be wiped out. After we complete this order, we will burn down this place with a fire and transform ourselves into good citizens.
Identity. When the time comes, you and I, the seven brothers, will no longer have to lick the knife to live our lives."
…
Having said this, everyone was immersed in joy, and suddenly a voice came.
"Brother, everything is done..."
With this sound, the boss knew that the third child was back, and he burst into laughter and said in a trembling voice, "Hahaha... The fifth child is finally back, brothers, the fifth child is finally back. This time, we brothers have a chance to be reborn."
coming."
The boss seemed extremely excited at this moment. If it hadn't been raining heavily outside, he would have gone out and shouted to the sky to vent his inner excitement.
But after waiting for a long time, the person who spoke did not enter the room. The boss was a little impatient, so he urged, "Lao Wu, what are you doing outside? Come in quickly?"
Lao Wu outside said silently in his heart: "Brother, I want to get in even if I'm riding a horse! But...but I can't get in..."
It's a pity that no one knows his silent cry.
Lao Wu wanted to cry but had no tears. At this moment, he wanted to die. Who could have imagined that everything was ready and he was about to return to the main army with a face full of joy when a sword suddenly stopped him.
At his throat.
It is conceivable that at this moment, as long as he was restless and moved even a little bit, he would be killed on the spot. But in this case, the people inside kept shouting but refused to come out to see if he was dead or alive.
He was filled with hatred and anger, but was powerless. He could only cry out silently: Help me, help me...
The people inside may have heard his prayers. The boss waited and waited, but couldn't wait for anyone to come in, so he ordered the people on the side, "This boy, the third child, please go out and have a look. Is this brat parked outside?"
What are you doing? I waited for most of the day and refused to come in."
