54. Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Everyone in Wuhu Villa knew that after leaving the gate of Gu's old store, they stepped into Shura Field. Whether they can walk out of Yong'an City alive depends on God's will. Some villagers are timid and are shaking with fear.

The escorts from the Far Escort Bureau looked on, and many of them looked gloating at the misfortune.

Yu Changyuan was about to push the door open when he suddenly heard someone outside the door say: "The inn is full, you go elsewhere!"

Yu Changyuan was startled and stopped immediately. After Tang He brought the Xingyuan Escort Bureau and others to the Gu family's old inn, the escorts from the Xingyuan Escort Bureau took over the defense around the inn and drove away the villagers from Wuhu Villa.

I returned to the backyard. At this time, when a life and death battle was about to happen, I didn't expect that someone would come to stay.

I heard someone shouting outside the door: "Don't you guys have eyes? This is an official's sedan, how dare you stop it? Get out of the way as soon as possible, otherwise you guys will look good."

Tang He's expression changed, and he turned to one of the escorts and said, "Brother Huo, go out and see what's going on. You have to deal with it carefully, and don't create any complications and ruin our important event."

The escort leader Huo agreed, then pushed aside several villagers from Wuhu Villa who were blocking the door, and walked out arrogantly. The moment the store door opened, he vaguely saw a lot of people standing outside the store.

There was also a green baize sedan. However, after escort Huo left, the store door was closed immediately, and he did not see clearly what was going on outside the store.

After Huo Biaotou went out, everyone in the store stretched out their ears to listen. What was strange was that there was no sound outside the store. Tang He, Yue Tieya and others looked at each other, unable to guess what happened outside the store. Yu Changyuan and others

But people were very happy, and they only hoped that it would be delayed just a moment longer. It would be best if the Taishan faction attacked the inn at this time, and everyone could take advantage of the chaos and escape.

It wasn't until half the time for the incense stick that the store door creaked, and the escort leader Huo walked in with a look of fear on his face, and the store door behind him immediately closed.

Huo Biaotou walked quickly to Tang He and whispered a few words in his ear. Tang He's face changed drastically and he looked straight at Huo Biaotou, as if he didn't believe what Huo Biaotou said.

Bouncer Huo nodded, meaning what he said was accurate. Tang He was stunned for a long time, Bouncer Huo looked anxious, and couldn't help but raise his voice: "Chief Bouncer, you must make a decision early."

Only then did Tang He come to his senses and hurriedly said: "Everyone, please put your weapons away quickly." Then he said to the escort leader Huo: "Please take our people back to their respective rooms quickly, and don't show your face."

Then he said to Yu Changyuan: "Brother Yu, please invite all friends from Wuhu Villa to come back to the room. My friends who used to be shopkeepers and waiters in Gu's old shop will stay here for the time being. We have distinguished guests coming to our door."

There was chaos in the lobby, and Tang He was so anxious that he cursed several times. Fortunately, everyone ran not too slowly, and in a moment only Tang He, Yue Tieya and a few others were left in the lobby. The original team of Wuhu Villa was assigned to

The five or six shopkeepers and waiters in Gu's old shop hurriedly cleaned up the room. The shopkeeper secretly thought "Amitābha" in his heart, thinking that as long as he didn't go out to fight against the Taishan sect, he would be more than willing to let him clean the toilets.

Yu Yuanyuan asked Zhuang Hengyun to take everyone in Wuhu Villa back to the backyard, but he stayed in the lobby. Li Qiufeng and Yan Dufei didn't want to hide anymore at this time, not to mention that they were wearing human skin masks, even if there were

When the official came, he was not afraid. When Yue Tieya saw Yu Changyuan and Li, Yan and the others did not avoid him. He was dissatisfied and glared at the three of them angrily. However, the three of them pretended not to see them, and Yue Tieya couldn't face them in person.

I had a seizure, and thought to myself: When you fall into my hands, let's see how I deal with you three guys.

At this time, the store door had been pushed open, and a big man in black walked in. He was tall and strong, with a curly beard, wearing a soft gauze hat, soap boots, and holding a riding crop in his right hand. He looked arrogant. He looked like. There were two people following behind him, but they were young men in green clothes. They were young and looked like servants of a wealthy family. After these three people entered the store, two children in green clothes stood at the door of the store, one on the left and the other on the right. He stood there without even raising his head. The big man in black snorted and said, "Who are you? What are you doing sneaking around here?"

Yue Tieya was furious and was about to teach the man in black a lesson. Tang He hurriedly stopped him and said to the man in black: "We are merchants staying in the hotel. We offended you, please forgive me."

The man in black glanced at him and then shouted: "Where is the shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly ran forward, bowed his hands and said, "You are the shopkeeper of Gu's old shop. What are your orders?"

The man in black said: "Prepare four upper rooms for us, and don't worry about the rest."

The shopkeeper couldn't help but look back at Tang He and said, "Sir, the shop is full. Look..."

"Then kick the guests out and give me the guest room!" the man in black said coldly.

The shopkeeper was about to say something else when he saw a few more people walking in from outside the store. These people were all in bright clothes and armor, and they were all military attaches of the imperial court. Judging from their clothing, these military attaches were indeed of high rank. The military attache who headed them was forty. He was many years old and said to the man in black: "Old Gao, have the guest rooms been arranged?"

The man in black frowned and said, "This guy is telling me that the customers are full. I'm asking him to kick people out." The military attaché said, "That's not necessary. I think the shopkeeper wants to make a few more taels of silver." After that, hehe. He smiled and said: "Who is the shopkeeper? Please stand up and speak."

The shopkeeper hurriedly raised his hands and said: "I am the shopkeeper. It is indeed full. Please invite some military masters..." Before he finished speaking, another military attache said: "It's strange. If the shop is full, why is this shop so full?" Is it so quiet here? Let me go to the backyard and take a look."

The shopkeeper was frightened and couldn't make up his mind, so he turned to look at Tang He. The officer in charge noticed it immediately and said to Tang He: "Who are you? Are you the owner of this inn?"

Tang He had just heard the report from escort leader Huo. He knew that he could never offend these people. He immediately said with a smile: "The common people are not the owners of this inn." After saying this, he pointed at Yu Changyuan and said: "This is the Gu family. The owner of the old shop, the ordinary people are just passers-by who stay here." After saying that, he said to Yu Changyuan: "Brother Yu, didn't you say that there are still a few upper rooms for distinguished guests? Now that the distinguished guests are coming, why don't you welcome them quickly? !”

Yu Changyuan watched the faces on the side and realized that these military attachés had a lot of background. In addition, Tang He winked at him. He hurriedly walked forward a few steps: "The upper room is indeed available, but there are guests who have made reservations. Since a few of them have If the military master wants to stay, we should ask the military master to stay first." After that, he said to the shopkeeper: "Go and tidy up the house quickly, and prepare wine, rice and good tea for the military masters."

The shopkeeper agreed and hurriedly ran to the backyard with the two waiters. The man in black said to the military attache at the head: "General Feng, you are more proud. I have been shouting for a long time and no one paid attention to me. You As soon as you show up, you will be in the upper room immediately. Oh, it’s so irritating that people are more popular than others.”

Yu Changyuan and others were all shocked. They didn't expect that the military attache was actually the commander-in-chief. It should be noted that in the Ming Dynasty, the commander-in-chief was the supreme commander of the army who guarded the local area. Under him were the deputy commander-in-chief, the staff general, the guerrilla general, and the guerrilla general.

They are the camp officer, garrison officer, commander-in-chief, promoted officer, etc. The garrison officer in Yong'an City is at most a garrison officer, and he is still far away from the general officer. Unexpectedly, there is an official rank in this small Yong'an City.

Such a high military officer.

Li Qiufeng thought in his heart: "Commander Feng has a high rank, but the man in black didn't show any respect to him when he spoke to him. Who is this man?"

At this time, General Feng said: "Who taught you that you refused to leave the capital when you were sent abroad? If you had gone with us to fight the Tatars, I'm afraid you would have become a Sima in the Ministry of War by now."

The more Li Qiufeng listened, the more frightened he became. He really couldn't figure out why these people, all high-ranking officials in the imperial court, suddenly appeared in the Gu family's old store.

I heard the man in black chatting and joking with General Feng. The man in black said, "Please come into the store, Mr. Liu." The faces of several military attachés immediately changed, and they no longer had the same playful smiles as before. One officer walked out of the door.

, whispered a few words, then lowered his head and walked backwards into the store.

After a while, I saw two maids in green slowly walking into the store supporting an old man.

At this time, the two boys in green who were guarding the door knelt down. General Feng and the other three military attachés took a few steps back and bowed in silence. Tang He, Yue Tieya, Yu Changyuan and others did not know who was coming.

Who was it? But when he saw these military attachés retreating, he also hurriedly retreated.

Although these people were martial arts masters with unique skills, they were overwhelmed by the old man's power and became uneasy for a moment.

Li Qiufeng and Yan Dufei followed Yu Yuanyuan and retreated to the wall. Yan Dufei whispered to Li Qiufeng: "Who is this old man? He is so powerful."

Li Qiufeng whispered: "He is Liu Kang, the cabinet scholar of the late emperor's time."
