He asked Li Chiying impatiently: "What's the matter?"

"I want to drink water!" Li Chiying said confidently.

"Don't you have a water bag in your car? Do you still want me to feed you?" Lu Xiaoxian said angrily.

"The water in the car is finished! Bring me the water to the carriage!" After saying that, Li Chiying retracted his head.

"It's really troublesome!" Lu Xiaoxian took a few steps forward with a water bag, came to the side of the carriage, and threw the water bag in through the window. "Ouch!" Li Chiying's dissatisfied voice came from inside the car.

, "Is there anyone who serves people like you? I asked you to bring it to the car, not to throw it in!"

"Xiao Xian, come on, get in the car. I have something to ask you!" Jiang Xiaotong's voice came from another carriage.

"Hey! Come right now!" Lu Xiaoxian's face immediately turned gloomy, and he happily agreed.

"Humph!" Li Chiying threw the water bag at Lu Xiaoxian, stopped talking, and became sulky.

Long Zhuang and others looked at this scene and almost laughed out loud. Even Lao Suntou, who was driving for Li Chiying, had a smile on his face.

Lao Suntou has been in the escort agency for more than ten years and is the best escort. This escort mission is very important, so of course Long Zhuang will take him with him.

Uncle Hai was driving Jiang Xiaotong. He stopped the carriage and let Lu Xiaoxian get on.

In the carriage, Jiang Xiaotong showed a proud smile on his face and gently wiped Lu Xiaoxian's sweat: "Are you tired?"

"Not tired!" Lu Xiaoxian sighed, "I wonder how Gu'er is doing now?"

"With Ying'er and Li Si taking care of him, there should be no problem!" Jiang Xiaotong comforted Lu Xiaoxian.

Ying'er has never left Jiang Xiaotong since she was a child. This time Jiang Xiaotong accompanied Lu Xiaoxian on a escort trip. In order to take care of Yan Gu, Jiang Xiaotong specially stayed with Ying'er. For this reason, Ying'er was not happy with her boss.

"I don't know what's going on, but my eyelids have been twitching these past two days, and I always feel like something is going to happen!" Lu Xiaoxian said worriedly.

"Uncle Hai and I are here, so don't worry!"

…

Long Zhuang got off his horse and quietly looked at the mottled plaque on the door of the wine shop.

"What's wrong? Bureau Chief!" Lu Xiaoxian asked.

"I haven't been to this place for almost ten years. It's still the same as before, without any changes." Long Zhuang seemed to be recalling something, "When I was a young escort, I often rested here. Thinking about it now, it's really unforgettable.

"

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the almost distant wine shop and couldn't help but laugh: "This shopkeeper is so stingy. He hasn't spent any money on renovations in ten years."

Long Zhuang arranged for several bodyguards and riders to watch the carriage outside the wine shop, ask for fodder, and feed and water the horses.

Lu Xiaoxian helped Jiang Xiaotong off the carriage and led her and Long Zhuang into the lobby of the restaurant.

"Lu Xiaoxian, how could you leave me alone?" Li Chiying's dissatisfied voice came from behind.

Lu Xiaoxian turned around helplessly: "There is a bodyguard protecting you, so why do you think I left you alone?"

"I am your employer, you have to lead me in first." Li Chiying deliberately glanced at Jiang Xiaotong and said, "Instead of just looking after others!"

Lu Xiaoxian couldn't laugh or cry: "Is there any difference?"

"Of course there is a difference!" Li Chiying said in a playful manner, "If you don't listen to me, I won't go in!"

Long Zhuang was afraid that Lu Xiaoxian would be stubborn again, so he quickly turned around and winked at him.

"I'm afraid of you!" Lu Xiaoxian muttered, reluctantly walked to Li Chiying and said loudly, "Princess, please come forward!"

"That's pretty much it!" Li Chiying strode into the lobby of the restaurant with her head held high, like a victorious general returning to court.

At noon, there were supposed to be a lot of people eating, but apart from the people from the escort agency, there were only two or three scattered tables, and the lobby was empty.

The wine shop owner came over with a smile on his face: "Dear guests, do you know what to eat?"

Long Zhuang raised his eyebrows inadvertently: "Let's have a quick bite and then hurry up. The shopkeeper will take care of the arrangements."

The shopkeeper nodded with a smile and walked into the back door, as if he was going to prepare a meal.

Not long after, two store waiters ran in from the back with sleepy eyes. It seemed that they had been idle and had just been woken up by the shopkeeper.

Long Zhuang and Lu Xiaoxian sat face to face, Jiang Xiaotong and Li Chiying sat on both sides, and others sat down around them. The two waiters ran around, carrying water and making tea, and they were busy.

Long Zhuang looked at the two waiters and suddenly smiled and said to Lu Xiaoxian: "Xiaoxian, guess what my biggest wish was when I was young?"

Lu Xiaoxian looked in the direction of Long Zhuang's eyes and guessed: "Bureau Chief, you don't want to be a waiter, do you?"

"Sure enough, I just want to be a waiter." Long Zhuang nodded, "I remember at that time, I observed the waiters in the shop every day. I know very well that what they like to do most every day is when there are no customers.

I can take a nap every once in a while, and what I look forward to most is meeting a generous guest."

Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "I'm afraid you didn't expect that in the end, I didn't become a waiter, but became the head of the escort agency."

Long Zhuang was silent, but his eyes were fixed on the waiter's green shorts, and he murmured: "You are right, this shopkeeper must be a stingy shopkeeper."

"Indeed, if we weren't stingy, how could the wine shop remain unchanged for ten years?" Lu Xiaoxian agreed.

Long Zhuang pointed lightly and said, "Didn't you find anything wrong with them?"

Seeing that Long Zhuang's face was strange and didn't look like he was joking, Lu Xiaoxian looked at him for a while and was about to speak when he heard Li Chiying suddenly say from the side: "The Tsing Yi clothes of these two waiters are a bit too small, they don't look like their own."

Long Zhuang said calmly: "It seems that we either met two disguised waiters or a stingy shopkeeper."

As soon as he finished speaking, the innkeeper came out from behind with wine and food. With a smile on his face, he sent the wine and food to Long Zhuang and others, and said attentively: "This is the special dish of the inn, steamed beef tendons. Guests, please try it."

.”

Long Zhuang nodded, picked up his chopsticks and turned over them several times, but without eating, he asked, "I wonder what the shopkeeper's name is?"

The shopkeeper smiled broadly: "My surname is Deng!"

Long Zhuang scratched his head with chopsticks and murmured: "Shopkeeper Deng, how do I remember that the shopkeeper here was named Zhang many years ago? Where did he go?"

Shopkeeper Deng nodded hurriedly and said: "You are talking about shopkeeper Zhang. He has been away for a few days. It was he who sold this wine shop to me."

Long Zhuang had a look of surprise on his face and suddenly shouted: "It's broken!"

Shopkeeper Deng was startled and asked: "Sir, what's the matter?"

Long Zhuang looked at Shopkeeper Deng and said, "I just remembered that the original shopkeeper's surname was not Zhang, but Meng. My memory is really bad, but why did Shopkeeper Deng remember it wrong?"

Shopkeeper Deng’s originally smiling face became distorted, and he suddenly said in a cold voice: “Now that I’ve said this, I don’t have to hide it anymore. I’m not a wine shop owner, I’m here to take your life!”

While talking, shopkeeper Deng jumped away, took out a short knife from his arms, and said with a ferocious smile: "I put cartilage powder in the tea you just drank. Now you don't even have the strength to lift the knife. If you don't want to die, just be obedient."

Don't move the ground, I can consider letting you go!"

As soon as shopkeeper Deng finished speaking, seven or eight big men appeared from the back room, including two waiters, all holding weapons and looking coldly at the people in the hall.

Long Zhuang also smiled and said: "Since you are not the shopkeeper here, there is no reason for us to drink your tea."

After saying that, he clapped his hands lightly, and Lin Yun and several other young escorts suddenly stood up, opened their mouths and spit out a water arrow.

Shopkeeper Deng's arrogant face suddenly calmed down, and he said in surprise: "How is it possible? You didn't drink...could you have known about it a long time ago?"

Long Zhuang said coldly: "It's not that we didn't predict, it's that you were too careless. No matter how clean you clean the backyard, there is still no way to remove the smell of blood left in the air."

Having said this, Long Zhuang touched his nose: "You killed the original shopkeeper and the clerk here, and then buried them in the stable behind, right?"

The color on Shopkeeper Deng's face changed several times: "So, you already knew that I was fake before you met me, but you still acted out this show hypocritically. It's really interesting."

Long Zhuang shook his head and smiled: "You are wrong, you are the one acting, not us. However, since you are willing to act, we are naturally willing to watch it. After all, it is not every day that you can watch a theater for free."

Shopkeeper Deng's eyelids twitched and he stopped talking. He slashed his sword towards Long Zhuang's face, but Long Zhuang sat upright and didn't move at all.

Lin Yun caught the blow with his sword. Shopkeeper Deng turned around, jumped over Long Zhuang's head and stabbed straight down. Lin Yun's silver sword shook slightly, and three sword flowers flashed out in an instant to avoid the sword's power, and rolled towards shopkeeper Deng's chest. Deng

The shopkeeper had nowhere to rely on in the air. Seeing that his life was in danger, he couldn't help but scream and closed his eyes.

With a "bang" sound, shopkeeper Deng threw himself on the ground, his mouth full of blood.

Shopkeeper Deng looked at Lin Yun who suddenly withdrew his sword and asked in confusion: "Why don't you kill me?"

Lin Yun said proudly: "We are bodyguards, not murderers."

In a corner of the lobby, Shopkeeper Deng's men were easily restrained by other escorts, and they were all lying motionless on the ground.

Long Zhuang said calmly: "Let's go!"

Shopkeeper Deng looked at Long Zhuang in surprise, sighed, and walked out.

"Wait!" A man walked in with his hands behind his back.

A group of men in black followed him in and immediately took control of every corner of the lobby.

"Mr. Wei!" Lu Xiaoxian said strangely.

Wei Xianyun turned his head and glanced at Lu Xiaoxian. He did not speak, but said to shopkeeper Deng: "My name is Wei Xianyun. You must have heard of it. You can't leave. I want to ask you a few words. Are you obedient?"

Are you coming with me, or do you want me to invite you?"

Shopkeeper Deng suddenly showed a strange smile on his face. Wei Xianyun suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he shouted: "Be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his opponent launched an attack. The waiters who had been restrained just now, as well as the guests at the other two tables, displayed their weapons at the same time.
