"Don't worry, princess, I will live longer than you." Although Su Qing looked very calm, she was secretly surprised in her heart.
She originally just suspected Ying Ning, but her current reaction seems to be that she knows about the assassin.
If Ying Ning had nothing to do with the assassin, she wouldn't believe it even if he killed her.
After hearing Su Qing's answer, Ying Ning smiled and said nothing.
When Su Qing sent Ying Ning away and exhaled a breath of turbidity, she couldn't waste any time now. Su Changyun was still waiting for Bingyuehuo Sunflower to save her life!
The servants from the Third Prince's Mansion had already prepared their horses at the gate and were waiting for Su Qing to come out.
Su Qing turned on his horse, his movements were neat and crisp, all showing the decisiveness of a martial arts practitioner.
Bailiyu also got on the horse, hugged Su Qing in his arms and said, "I'm not worried about you going alone, I'll go with you."
Su Qing felt sweet in her heart and said immediately: "Okay."
Bailiyu clamped his legs between the horse's belly and whipped the horse's butt. The horse stood up and roared a few times, then rushed out like a sharp sword.
When the two of them came out of the city, they headed straight for Yaowang Valley. It wasn't until it was almost dark that they found a remote inn and prepared to stay.
"Are you two working as a pro or staying in a hotel?" A thin shop waiter greeted them enthusiastically. In addition, there was a lame man who led their horses down.
"Stay in the hotel." Bai Liyu took Su Qing's hand and followed the waiter to the front of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper who was settling the accounts looked at the two of them with greedy eyes when he saw that they were dressed like a big fat piece of meat.
"There are two more upper rooms, Emperor No. 1 and No. 2. San'er will take the guests back quickly."
"Okay, you two come with me." The waiter nodded and bowed, carefully leading the way, as if he was afraid that he might scare people away by accident.
The interior decoration of this inn was as shabby as its appearance, and with their footsteps, the floors and stairs made creaking sounds.
It was quiet around the inn, there was no one eating in the hall, and a strange smell wafted out from under the floor.
"Are there few of you here?" Su Qing observed the room upstairs.
"Girl, it's normal for a small shop to have few customers. It's a bit underwhelming because there are so few people, but at least you can make some money." The waiter said enthusiastically.
Su Qing didn't speak. A strange smell wafted from some rooms, which was exactly the same as the smell in the hall.
There were people in some rooms, and snoring could be heard from time to time. Suddenly, a large man with a long scar on his face and a fierce look walked towards him.
His greedy eyes kept scanning Su Qing up and down, and the lust in his eyes was clearly visible. When he walked to Su Qing, he even wanted to touch Su Qing's butt.
But he looked at Bai Liyu, retracted his hand and left.
"Two guests, your room has arrived. The young one will leave first." After the waiter said this, he left in a hurry.
No matter how slow her reaction was, Su Qing still noticed that this store was unusual.
Su Qing and Bai Liyu looked at each other. The latter's expression was as usual. It was obvious that he had known this for a long time.
But there were no other inns around, and the place was remote. There might be wild animals outside! She didn't want to sleep outside in the middle of the night.
Besides, she is good at martial arts, so just be careful at night. If not, there is Baili Yu.
The upper room of this inn is not much better, it is barely clean, so I can only make do with it tonight.
Knock knock——
"Sir, I've brought you food." The waiter knocked on Su Qing's door.
"Come in!" Su Qing put the bed on the bed.
"I've put the food on the table for you, please take your time." The waiter first looked around Su Qing's room to make sure no one else came in and put the food down.
After the waiter left, Su Qing poured the food into a vase on the side. She didn't notice the waiter's little actions, so she wouldn't eat the food in the inn.
Besides, she could smell the sweat medicine on the waiter from a long way away. How could she eat the food? She's not stupid.
Su Qing threw away the food and began to check the room. She found many footprints and blood stains on the wooden frame of the window.
There is a tree outside the window, and the height of the tree trunk is just up to her window.
Su Qing calmly closed the window. As for the door, she planned to close it when she wanted to sleep.
…
"We've separated? Are you sure?" the shopkeeper asked the waiter in a low voice.
"Separate, sure." The waiter nodded.
The shopkeeper looked at the scarred man whom Su Qing and the others had just met, and winked at him. The scarred man nodded and went upstairs.
"Boss, I'm afraid that man will be difficult to deal with! How about we just release that thing and kill the man first..."
The waiter made a gesture of wiping his neck towards the shopkeeper.
His pair of green bean eyes were spinning in his eye sockets, showing his sly eyebrows and a hint of vulgarity.
"You're stupid!" The shopkeeper directly rewarded the waiter with a chestnut, and then said, "You can't control that thing. What if you hurt that little lady? If you have injuries on your body, you can't sell it for a good price.
Already."
"Hey! What the boss said is true! He's still smarter than the boss." The waiter seemed to agree with this.
"Well, if I'm not smart, how can I be your boss!" The shopkeeper raised his head and chest, as if he were a big brother.
"You still know how to talk, okay! Go and get ready, we can do it later."
The waiter got the order and went down, leaving the shopkeeper there humming a tune leisurely.
…
With a creak, Bai Liyu quietly entered Su Qing's room, locked the door, and put out the candle.
"Did you find anything?" Su Qing asked.
Bai Liyu nodded, "I just went to check it out, and the motionless figures in many rooms were corpses, and the corpses seemed to have been sucked dry by something."
His expression is very serious, and he can suck people into mummies in an instant, which is not something ordinary people can do.
"And I also found this in a room." Bai Liyu handed the velvet flower hairpin he picked up to Su Qing.
Su Qing naturally recognized this hairpin. She designed the hairpin herself, how could she not recognize it.
"I remember that this hairpin seemed to have been sold to Liu Yao by Jinxiu Pavilion. Could it be that the mummy was..."
Bai Liyu shook his head, "The corpse is that of a man. There seem to be traces of a fight around the corpse, as well as some small insects."
In addition, he also quietly went to the backyard of the inn, where he found a cage and found that it was actually closed...
