Chapter 84 The troublemaker
Although Ji Xiaoyan was reluctant to admit the fact that Old Man Qingmi was greedy for wine, she still had to give in in the face of reality. Mo Haihua, the owner of Wuli Town Restaurant, opened the wine that she "loved" very much.
The price is also very high, and Mo Haihua has thoroughly used the phrase "a thousand pieces of gold can't exchange for it".
A jar of wine, two thousand gold coins, no bargaining!
Originally, in order not to make Old Qingmi regretful, Ji Xiaoyan was prepared to bleed a lot and spend another two thousand gold coins to make Old Qingmi happy. But who knows, just when she was about to pay, Old Qingmi was very straightforward.
He opened his mouth and said: "Two thousand gold coins per jar? It's too expensive, too expensive... If I let the girl buy it for me, we won't even have the money to live in the future... Forget it, I will bear it this time
Got it!!"
"No more?" Mo Haihua raised her eyebrows and looked at the old man Qingya a little unhappily and asked.
"No, no." Old Man Qingmi replied quickly, then turned to Ji Xiaoyan and said: "Let's go, girl, let's follow the waiter out quickly, otherwise I will look at the wine jar and my heart will be broken."
I will be ready to make a move. If I spend all my money because of a greedy person like me, we will have no way to survive in the future!"
Ji Xiaoyan opened her mouth. She originally wanted to tell old man Qingmi that she could still afford the two thousand gold coins, so that she wouldn't be able to survive if she bought him some wine. But looking back, she realized that old man Qingmi wanted to help her save money.
, why should she bother to spend two thousand gold coins on being taken advantage of? So, Ji Xiaoyan quickly nodded, greeted Miao Xiaohei and the others, expressed his gratitude to Mo Haihua, and then followed Old Man Qingmi directly.
Following the waiter, he walked towards a passage.
They originally thought that this would be the case. As long as they passed through the underground passage of the restaurant and reached the ground, the incident in Wuli Town would end successfully. As a result, the accident came as scheduled.
Moreover, what caused this surprise was the old man Qingmi who had been relieved for a while not long ago, but suddenly realized that he knew he was saving money for her.
The accident started just when Ji Xiaoyan thought the incident was about to end.
At that time, the waiter in the shop happened to be holding an oil lamp and sent them to the end of the passage, where there was a wooden ladder five or six meters high. The top of the wooden ladder was a dark wooden board, just like the entrance to the cellar that Ji Xiaoyan and the others had seen.
It was like a wooden board, surrounded by dark soil, and only the waiter's dim oil lamp flickered in the entire space.
"You can leave as long as you go up here." The waiter explained to Ji Xiaoyan calmly: "The location above should be in the suburbs. Whether you will encounter monsters or something like that depends on your luck."
"Second Brother, is that door easy to open?" Meow Xiaohei pointed to the black board above his head, looked at the waiter and asked seriously: "Is there any key or something? If there is no key,
People from outside can’t come in at any time?”
When the waiter heard this, he frowned. After thinking about it for a moment, he said to Miao Xiaohei: "There is no key, we usually leave it like this... However, the possibility you said is quite high. I will talk to you later."
I told the boss! You should leave quickly!"
When Miao Xiaohei heard this, he blinked immediately. Is this the end? Why don't you thank her for her advice or something?
"I'll put the oil lamp here, and you can take care of it yourself. There's still something to do in the store, so I brought it here." The waiter nodded slightly to Ji Xiaoyan and the others, and then leisurely disappeared into the darkness.
In the passage.
Ji Xiaoyan shrugged, reached out and touched the wooden ladder, ready to climb.
"Um, girl!" At this moment, old man Qingya spoke.
"What's wrong? Uncle Master? Is there a problem?" Ji Xiaoyan stopped what he was doing nervously, turned around and looked at old man Qingmi and asked.
"No, no!" Old Man Qingya quickly shook his head, then rubbed his hands and said, "I want to say, you go up first and wait for me. I suddenly thought that something seemed to have been dropped on the way here, and I was going to go back and look for it.
Looking for..."
"Did something drop? What did it drop?" Ji Xiaoyan and Miao Xiaohei asked with concern on their faces, "Why don't we go out and help you look for it together?"
"No, no, I probably remember where it is, you just go out and wait for me!" Old Man Qingya waved his hand, and then urged: "You go up first, just in time to see if Jia Jia has been sent here.
……..”
"You really don't want our help?" Ji Xiaoyan frowned and looked at old man Qingmi and asked.
"No, no need!" Old Man Qingya said firmly again, then moved his body back and said: "You guys go out and check the situation first, I will be back in a while!! I will do it as quickly as possible
I'm back..." After saying that, Ji Xiaoyan saw sparks from the weak oil lamp flickering, and old man Qingmi disappeared into the passage.
"Xiaoyan, why do I feel that Master Qingmi seems to be hiding something from us... Do you think he really dropped things? I don't think he is the kind of person who would drop things!" Meow Xiaohei looked at it.
Looking in the direction where old man Qingya disappeared, he said doubtfully.
"I guess he must have found something good on the road and is going to go back and dig for it!" Ji Xiaoyan thought for a while, guessed the most likely reason and said something to Miao Xiaohei, and then climbed up the wooden ladder.
, while saying to Miao Xiaohei and Ye Yingshenshen: "I'm going to go ahead to check the situation. You guys should follow me quickly. Don't close the door when you're at the end..."
"Okay!" Everyone responded, and Ji Xiaoyan climbed up to the top of the wooden ladder with both hands and feet.
The wooden board covering the top of the head was just as the waiter said, it was just placed on it casually. Ji Xiaoyan raised his hand and saw a piece of sunshine with sunset filtering through the gap, illuminating the passage.
There was a small area. Ji Xiaoyan lifted the board head away with all his strength, and heard a loud voice: "Xiaoyan?"

"Jiajia, are you here? Is anyone with you?" Ji Xiaoyan asked in surprise, while asking Jiajia to help push the wooden board open.
"I just had it, and then he left!" Jiajia answered honestly, stretched out his paws to help Ji Xiaoyan pull the board apart, and then watched her climb to the ground, looked around nervously, and hurriedly
Then he said: "There is no one around, Xiaoyan, don't worry!"
"Did the person you mentioned bring you here?" Ji Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.
"Yeah!" Jia Jia nodded affirmatively.
"Xiaoyan, pull it..." Miss Meow Hei carefully looked around the wooden ladder. After confirming that there were no insects, she quickly shouted to Ji Xiaoyan, and then climbed to the ground with Ji Xiaoyan's hand, deep inside.
After taking a deep breath, he said happily: "It's finally out!"
Ji Xiaoyan smiled slightly and looked at the layers of Ye Ying. After Brick, Frisman and Yu Mo also climbed out, he looked at the wooden ladder with a little worry and said, "I don't know if there are any more."
How long will it take for Master Qingya to come over?"
"If it's like you said, he went to dig something, it will definitely take a while. Anyway, we are not in a hurry now, we will just wait a while." Ye Ying thought for a while and faced Ji Xiao
Yan said with a smile.
However, just as he finished speaking, Ji Xiaoyan and the others heard a slight vibration under their feet. Before they could distinguish it, they heard the voice of old man Qingmi instantly reaching their ears along the wooden ladder: "Girl.
, don’t close the door..."
Ji Xiaoyan's heart suddenly tightened. What happened to old man Qingmi? Could it be that there were some high-level monsters in the tunnel they just walked through? Otherwise, why was his voice so nervous?
"Girl, please wait for me!!" Old Man Qingya's voice clearly reached Ji Xiaoyan and the others' ears again. Just when they were about to ask what was going on, another clear voice suddenly shouted angrily.
It rang: "Let's go? If you don't hand over those things to me today, you won't be able to walk out of this passage and out of our Wuli Town!"
"It's that NPC boss!" Meow Xiaohei said immediately.
"It's the boss!" Ye Ying said with certainty, "Uncle Qingmi, what's going on?"
"It seems that something was stolen? And it was discovered?" Miao Xiaohei turned his head and looked at Ji Xiaoyan. When did this happen? It's true that Uncle Qingmi, since he stole someone else's things,
Why are you running back to dig up treasures? You deserve to be chased... However, this logic seems a bit wrong! Meow Xiaohei was startled for a moment, looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a stutter and said: "Xiaoyan, you
Say...You said Master Qingmi went back...not just to steal things, right?"
Ji Xiaoyan's face was also full of black lines, and she really didn't know how to answer Meow Xiaohei.
She also felt that old man Qingmi definitely didn't go back to dig for any treasures, but actually went back to steal things. It's not like she had never seen his stealing methods before! However, what Ji Xiaoyan couldn't figure out was why Qingmi wanted to steal something this time.
Old Man Mi went back to steal something, so he didn't ask Yu Mo to help him become invisible!
"What should we do now?" Ye Ying glanced at the hole in the ground worriedly, looked at Ji Xiaoyan and asked, "How about spending the money to buy the things that Master Qingmi stole?
Putting the matter to rest? I think the most likely thing is that Master Qingya stole the wine!"
"I think so too!" Meow Xiaohei nodded in agreement.
"If the wine is really stolen, it depends on how much Uncle Qingmi stole. If there is only one jar, I can still afford two thousand gold coins, but I'm afraid he is too greedy..." Ji
Xiaoyan looked worriedly at the passage opening on the ground, but still didn't see Old Man Qingya, so she said a little sadly. Based on her understanding of Old Man Qingya, if he attacked, he would definitely not take away only one person.
Those who ordered some things must have swept away Mo Haihua’s other things, or all the wine, otherwise, Mo Haihua’s voice would never sound so angry!
Sure enough, in the next second, Ji Xiaoyan and the others heard that old man Qingmi seemed to be fighting with Mo Haihua. While the two were fighting, old man Qingmi was shouting: "I said you can do it, right? I just took you."
