Chapter 416 Traps
Tianyuan Ancient Town.
Mingtong Inn.
In the upper room on the second floor, after hearing Hu Fei's analysis, the three people present could not help but be stunned for a moment, with a trace of doubt on their faces.
They found nothing about the so-called trap.
"Have you ever noticed those merchants? Have you noticed anything special?"
Hu Fei's eyes swept across the three people's faces one by one and asked lightly.
After hearing Hu Fei's question, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other.
"enthusiasm!?"
Immediately afterwards, Ye Qing's eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't help blurting out.
After hearing Ye Qing's words, Pei Jie and Chundie couldn't help but look at Ye Qing, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"The streets do look lively during the day, but the merchants lack the enthusiasm they should have. Even the shouting seems to be intentional!"
Ye Qing looked at Hu Fei and couldn't help but say.
After hearing Ye Qing's words, Hu Fei nodded with satisfaction and smiled without saying a word.
"I remembered it too! When I led people to search for the traces of Li Yu and the others, I found that the goods brought by those merchants did not sell much at all, but as soon as it got dark, they closed the stall and left without stopping for a moment.
!”
Pei Jie also suddenly realized it and exclaimed.
"Most of the merchants I see today are Yuan merchants, and there are almost no Han merchants!"
Chundie couldn't help but frown, thinking about the doubts she had discovered.
"Those merchants are fake!"
Immediately afterwards, the three people said almost in unison, then looked at each other and looked at Hu Fei in horror.
"That's right, they are not merchants at all, they are just an illusion created. If my guess is correct, they should be people from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, or they are killers from Chunqiu Hall in disguise."
Hu Fei nodded and said thoughtfully.
After hearing Hu Fei's conclusion, the three people present couldn't help but look solemn. If they remembered correctly, there were more than 100 merchants who appeared on the street today. If it were true that they were all the killers of Chunqiu Hall.
, then this town can almost be called a Jedi!
"Master Jiu, what should we do?!"
Pei Jie looked at Hu Fei and asked solemnly.
"Now that we have broken into the dragnet that the enemy has prepared for us, we can only wait for the enemy to close the net. I believe it will not be long before they take action."
Hu Fei smiled and said calmly, without any fear.
After listening to Hu Fei's words, the three of them looked at each other, turned around and walked out in tacit agreement.
"Take someone to guard the outside of the inn. If you find any danger, call the police immediately!"
Pei Jie opened the door and said in a deep voice to Qi Yun who was guarding the door.
Qi Yun agreed and immediately left the inn with nineteen Jinyi guardsmen to guard the outside.
Ye Qing and the Thirteen Golden Cavalry Guards were guarding every corner of the inn, on full alert.
Pei Jie and Chun Die stood guard outside the door of the room where Hu Fei was, with gloomy faces, as if facing a formidable enemy.
They are the last line of defense. Anyone who wants to get close to Hu Fei must take them down first!
The originally quiet and boring inn was suddenly surrounded by a depressing and dignified atmosphere. Not a single sound could be heard in the entire inn. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!
Chundie, who was guarding the door, frowned slightly, hesitated, then went straight down to the second floor and walked towards the small room next to the counter. She still couldn't worry about the innkeeper, she always felt that there was something wrong with that person.
But when Chundie walked into the small room, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because she found that the boss had been tied up and thrown in the corner, with a rag stuffed in his mouth, unable to move.
Seeing this scene, Chundie frowned slightly and immediately walked closer and removed the rag blocking the boss's mouth.
"what happened?!"
Chundie stared at the boss and asked in a deep voice.
At this moment, her suspicion of the boss was completely eliminated, because the way the boss tied the ropes was very professional!
"It was the guests who stayed here last night who did it! They... they seem to be coming for you!"
The boss looked at Chundie in horror and said with trembling lips.
After hearing the boss's answer, Chundie felt nervous and hurriedly turned around and left the hut.
"Hey? Heroine, let me go first..."
The boss looked at Chundie's back and shouted in despair and fear, but Chundie had long since ignored him, closed the door and rushed straight to the second floor.
"There is a killer in the inn! Everyone be on alert!"
Spring Butterfly shouted loudly as she flew upstairs.
After hearing Chundie's words, everyone present was stunned, and then they all pulled out their weapons.
"Search!"
Ye Qing hesitated for a moment, then immediately gave the order, leaving half of the people behind, and led the rest to start searching every room!
"Master Jiu, be careful, there was a killer sneaking into the inn yesterday!"
Chundie quickly came to the door of Hu Fei's room and gave a deep warning inside.
"Do not worry."
Hu Fei sat at the table, drinking tea, and replied calmly.
Jiu Qianhan, with a hint of cold air, was placed within reach on the table, as if he could smell the danger coming.
Although the enemy was at hand, in addition to a hint of nervousness, there was also an indescribable excitement in his heart.
Outside the inn, Qi Yun and his nine royal guards were guarding the area attentively. Everyone looked around with their eyes wide open.
At this moment, black figures suddenly appeared on the originally deserted streets, like ghosts against the backdrop of the night, gradually approaching the inn.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
Qi Yun gritted his teeth, pulled out the Xiuchun knife from his waist, and ordered in a deep voice.
Following Qi Yun's order, everyone drew their swords one after another and stared coldly at the crowd that was getting closer and closer. With the faint moonlight, the enemy's figure became clearer and clearer. At first glance, there were about two hundred people.
!
Looking at the enemy who was more than 20 times more numerous, Qi Yun's face turned slightly solemn, and then he hurriedly blew his whistle!
At the same time, as if they had received some signal, the killers under the night suddenly rushed towards Qi Yun and others at the door of the inn, like a flood that burst a dam!
"kill!"
Qi Yun shouted and immediately led his men to meet him. The two sides reached a point of fighting in an instant, and the sound of gold and iron clashing could be heard endlessly!
In the inn, Pei Jie, who was guarding the door of Hu Fei's room, heard Qi Yun's whistle warning, and then there was the sound of a violent fight outside.
"Protect the young master!"
Pei Jie turned to look at Chundie, whispered a warning, pulled out the knife, tiptoed a little, and jumped directly off the second floor, rushed out of the inn, and joined the fight outside the inn!
Chundie clenched her fists, raised her eyebrows coldly, and coldly observed the movements around her, with cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.
I have followed the young master for so long, and this is the first time I have been in such danger!
On the other side, Ye Qing is still leading people to search every guest room, but nothing has been found so far. Apart from them, no one else has been found in the entire inn!
Hu Fei sat on a chair, staring at the closed door, holding Jiu Qianhan tightly in his hands. The cold air spread through the skin of his hands throughout his body, making him extremely calm at the moment.
The world is dangerous, and this is the first time that he has felt that death is so close to him.
He had lived in the capital for a long time, and he had never seen such a scene before. Even during the battle at Jiming Mountain, he had never been so nervous.
If he was really a top-notch master, he might not be so afraid, but he is not.
Although Pei Jie only led ten Jinyi guards, including Qi Yun, to guard the outside of the inn, not a single enemy broke into the inn from beginning to end.
In the hearts of each of them, there is an unwritten belief that nothing will happen to Hu Fei unless they all die in battle!
But, this night was destined not to be so easy!
On the other side, Ye Qing was leading people to search the inn. Just when he thought the killer lurking in the inn had already taken the opportunity to escape, he kicked open a door when a knife suddenly appeared in front of him.
Attack him right in front of him!
"careful!"
Ye Qing exclaimed, hurriedly jumped back, and at the same time waved the long knife in his hand!
As a sound of gold and iron clashed, the collision between knives and knives splashed countless sparks!
Immediately afterwards, three black shadows rushed out of the room like ghosts, each holding a knife with a cold light in their hands, and rushed towards the other Thirteen Golden Cavalry Guards at the door!
When Chundie who was guarding the door of Hu Fei's room saw this scene, his face instantly became gloomy. He gritted his teeth and observed while holding his short knife tightly...
Chapter completed!
