Chapter 378: Night
The baking was hot and hot at the Zhang family, and it was getting late. The old Yuan and the other two went home, took a shower, and went to bed quickly.
Song Qiu guessed that this time was just around seven o'clock in the future.
In this winter, except for one sleep, it means sleeping.
Especially when it rains again, it is cold and cold. If you don’t burn the fire, you will still be warm in the bed.
However, the quilt that had just gotten into was still a little cold, so Song Qiu lies on his side with his hands in his armpits, talking to A Ling.
After a while, the quilt became hot, so I yawned and went to sleep.
I was sleeping in a daze and didn't know when it was, so I felt empty next to me.
"A Ling?"
A Ling, who had just walked to the door, paused, "Sister Aqiu, are you awake? I heard something happening across the river and was about to go and take a look."
Song Qiu knew that he was shocked and quickly stood up, "What's the matter? Something happened?"
"I don't know, Sister Aqiu, don't rush to get up first. I'll be quick in light skills and I'll go there in just a few seconds. I'll go and see it and tell you it's right!" A Ling said, and flashed out of the house.
When Song Qiu saw that people were leaving quickly, he didn't even have time to listen to her. He was also worried about what happened to the inn.
She was not afraid of any losses in the inn, but that there were so many people in Du Chuanfu. If there was a good deal...
But it was dark and she was unarmed, so it seemed like a burden to follow her?
She thought that nothing big would happen, so she waited for A Ling to come back and talk about it before she could see it.
But when I waited like this, I always felt that time was very slow, and I didn’t sit in the bed for a quarter of an hour, so Song Qiu couldn’t sit still.
Ah Ling is very sharp-eyed and clear-eyed. It is not surprising that she can hear the movements across the river here. Besides, those who practice martial arts always have different keenness towards danger.
She said there was something going on, and it was certainly true. Song Qiu thought about the people who stayed in the inn tonight, so he quickly got up and put on his clothes.
When I opened the door and went out, it was drizzling outside. The direction of the long river was raining and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Even if he just stood up, Song Qiu gritted his teeth and took an umbrella and went out.
It was raining and the night wind was blowing, it was dark, and I couldn't see my fingers at all.
Song Qiu closed his collar, held an umbrella, went down the gentle slope, and walked a little faster.
I have walked the road from the village for many times, and it is wide and easy to walk on if I can’t see it.
After walking out for a long time, he could go to Guan Dao as soon as he saw that Song Qiu looked away from the inn. The lights were on, and he could hear some movements vaguely.
Something happened indeed.
Thinking of this, Song Qiu couldn't help but walk faster, got on the official road, and soon arrived at the inn.
I saw the lobby in a mess and a bloody smell, as if it was after a fight.
Song Qiu subconsciously went to see the horse shed, but found that the original carriages and horses of the guests were gone.
She quickly walked into the inn. Du Chuanfu and others, who were busy packing up the overturned tables and chairs, saw her coming and quickly came forward, "Girl!"
"What happened? Are you all okay?" As he said that, he looked at everyone everywhere. Seeing that Tao Xiuer and Meng Yingzi were all helping to clean up, no one was injured or something, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Du Chuanfu quickly replied: "It was probably just a stick of incense before, we were all asleep. Suddenly, the young man heard something wrong. He got up and came out to see the situation. He found that more than a dozen men in black had touched the inn and were handing hands with the guests living in the east wing."
"Because I don't know the truth, the little one dared not act rashly, and just stood in the corridor here and watched. The dozen men in black fought very hard with the guards. They all had real swords and guns, and soon they saw blood. Later, Lao Tao and the others were awakened. Xiao was afraid of causing trouble for the inn, so he only protected Lao Tao and the others and told everyone not to go out."
"Fortunately those men in black only had the guest in their eyes. Even if they discovered us, they did not attack us."
"We hid here and saw the men in black falling down one by one, and two guards were seriously injured."
"Soon all the men in black were solved, and the middle-aged man was protected from the wing room by guards, leaving a ingot of silver, saying that he had caused trouble for the inn, so we took away all the bodies of the men in black together to act as if we didn't know anything tonight."
A Ling answered from the side, "When I rushed over, there was only one person in black left. Seeing that Uncle Du and the others were fine, I didn't take action."
Du Chuanfu took out a ingot of silver and handed it to Song Qiu. When Song Qiu saw the silver ingot, he said, "What a guy, it must be fifty taels per ingot?"
This compensation is quite good. Her inn is a little messy and blood is a little bit more damaged, and there are only a few stools that are not worth so much.
But it was really true that others gave it to the inn, so it was scary.
Song Qiu collected the silver and said, "Since that's the case, everyone has left, then we just think we don't know anything. It's okay if no one asks. If someone comes to ask, we will say that we have never stayed in such a person in our inn."
When Du Chuanfu and others heard this, they were very serious. They killed more than a dozen people. This matter was unusual at first glance, and they should not have been too much of their care.
Du Chuanfu, Tao Zheng, Meng Chaoqun and others who have worked in wealthy families know this truth well, and they don’t need Song Qiu to give more advice. They all understand what to say and what not to say.
As soon as he came, Song Qiu helped clean up the everywhere and wiped the blood clean, otherwise he would not be able to open tomorrow.
As for the broken benches, there are more to get the first one. I will ask Liu Caigui to add a few more pictures tomorrow.
It was already the fourth day when the inn was cleaned up.
Song Qiu hurriedly asked everyone to rest soon, and he went back with A Ling.
When she got up in the middle of the night, Song Qiu was so excited that she wanted to go back and lie down quickly. She couldn't say that she wanted to sleep in a pretentious way after dawn.
Ah Ling walked towards the village with her hand. At this moment, the rain stopped, and the road became a little slippery. The sky was still so dark, and the Songshan Mountains behind the village were all like ghosts.
"Sister Aqiu, when I went there, I saw those men in black. One of them was lying in a pool of blood, with an iron plate exposed on my waist. It seemed to be the word "Lin". A Ling lowered his voice. In this quiet and deserted night, he could hear it very clearly.
"Lin?" Song Qiu thought about watching dramas in the past. This kind of scene was nothing more than the middle-aged man offended or hindered whom he was so he sent death warriors and assassins to assassin.
Such things are too far away from the common people like them, and they are not something they should be curious about.
Then he said, "Let's just think that we don't know anything. If the man in black comes to the door again, you can't do it alone, it's not OK to be able to do it alone. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so we should seek peace and nothing happens."
"I understand." A Ling nodded, knowing in his heart that today's days are no longer the days when they were shouting for the sword and the shadow of swords and swords in the past.
Just looking at Song Qiu, I couldn't help but answer, "It's just the word Lin. I happened to know that the secret guards raised by the Houwang in the south were called Qilin Guards."
