Chapter 4: The Night is Not Peaceful
In the evening, the autumn rain was still falling.
After dealing with the government detectives and cleaning up the scene, Wang Ye closed the shop early.
The body has been dealt with, but the matter is not over yet.
There were four dishes and a soup on a table in the hall, with a few snow-white steamed buns in the middle, which looked very tempting at first glance.
Next to the food, there was a jade warrant.
The hand order was green in color and crystal clear, with the words "Juntian" engraved on it.
This is the Juntian Order!
Wang Ye sat at the table, his arms folded, staring at Jun Tianling thoughtfully.
On his left was Aji who looked helpless, and on his right was a sturdy man with a face full of flesh.
The man's name was Chen Chong. He was the chef of Zuixianlou. He was a great cook and was an expert with a knife. The mutton he cut was as thin as a cicada's wing, which won Wang Ye's admiration.
"No, what do you mean by not letting people eat the food on the table?"
"Just staring at that broken warrant. Can you eat that warrant?"
Looking at the four dishes and one soup in front of him, Ah Ji swallowed his saliva and said, "Such delicious dishes and steamed buns, if we don't eat them now, they will get cold!"
As he said that, Aji was about to reach out to grab the steamed bun.
"Eat, eat, eat, that's all you know how to do!"
Seeing Aji reaching out to take the steamed bun, Wang Ye frowned and stretched out his hand to slap Aji's palm.
Seeing this, Aji instinctively wanted to dodge.
But Wang Ye's palm seemed to have magic power, and there was no way to avoid it, and it hit Aji's palm hard.
Snapped!
With a slight sound, Aji's palm was slapped away by Wang Ye.
"Hey, shopkeeper"
After Wang Ye slapped his hand away, Aji said, "It's time to say it. You've just wasted your time running the inn. You should practice martial arts and specialize in palm techniques. You will definitely be able to make a name for yourself in the martial arts world!"
"I can't dodge your slap!"
Aji's words were full of sarcasm and ridicule, and his tone was sarcastic and unpleasant to listen to.
"I'm going to beat you up!"
After hearing what Aji said, Wang Ye rolled his eyes and said, "Come to think of it, if I had known that you were a martial artist, I would never have fished you out of the sea. Not only do you eat and use my things every day, but you also cause trouble for me at the critical moment!"
Half a year ago, Wang Ye passed by the port and saw Aji floating in the sea.
At first, Wang Ye thought that Aji was just a floating corpse that had drowned in the water, and wanted to see if there was any money on him that he could salvage.
But who would have thought that Aji was still alive, and Wang Ye had no choice but to send him to the clinic to save him.
And because Aji had no money to pay the bill, the money that Wang Ye had paid in advance was nowhere to be found, so he had no choice but to keep Aji by his side as a waiter and work to pay him back.
"Just pull it off"
After hearing what Wang Ye said, Aji said, "I have known your character for a long time. You probably just want to see if you can get some money from me. I would rather believe that the madam of Yihongyuan will change her ways than believe that you, a money-grubber, will save people."
"Alas, the world is becoming more corrupt and people's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be!"
Hearing Aji's words, Wang Ye shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I, Wang, have been elegant, easy-going, and generous all my life, but I was blamed for saving someone. How sad and painful it is..."
As he spoke, Wang Ye looked dejected, hesitant .
With this look, how can he look like the devil who dominated the world in the past?
"Okay, shopkeeper..."
Seeing Wang Ye's miserable appearance, Chen Chong frowned and said, "Instead of playing with this kid Aji, why not discuss what to do next?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell silent instantly.
Yes, what should we do in the future?
The Juntian Order, a token representing the leader of the Tianxiahui, is now in Aji's hands. In addition, several members of the Tianxiahui were let go today, so the other party will definitely not let this go.
What should you do if the other party comes to your door?
"How about we go and report to the authorities and ask them to send more detectives?"
Wang Ye spoke about this matter.
"That's not right. Don't you know what the constables in Jinling City are like?"
Hearing this, Chen Chong asked back, "They are good at catching robbers and gangsters, but this time they are dealing with the Tianxiahui!"
"That's known as the biggest gang in the underworld. It's said to have 100,000 members. Not to mention the other masters, even the three hall masters are notorious and extremely terrifying. It's safer to burn incense and pray to the gods than to expect the constables to help us."
"If you ask me, it would be better to be straightforward and hand this broken thing over to Tianxiahui."
At this time, Chen Chong continued, "If they take the things, maybe they won't embarrass us anymore!"
"That won't do!"
Hearing this, Aji frowned and said, "I promised Luo Changtian that this order will never fall into the hands of thieves. If I break my promise, what kind of man am I!?"
"It's futile to give"
At this time, Wang Ye shook his head and said, "This warrant is a death warrant. Once you get it, it will be a trouble you can't get rid of. Even if you give it to them, they will still kill you..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into silence.
At this moment, Wang Ye's heart moved slightly.
Because, in addition to the three of them in the hall, he heard the heartbeat of a fourth person.
The heartbeat came from the roof, the rhythm was sonorous and powerful, obviously belonging to someone who practiced martial arts.
I'm afraid things won't be peaceful tonight...
Hearing the heartbeat, Wang Ye thought secretly in his heart.
…
Outside the city of Jinling, in an old dilapidated temple.
"So, Luo Changtian handed the Juntian Order to the waiter?"
In the dilapidated temple , a man wearing a silver mask looked at the man in black in front of him and asked quietly.
The man in black was the one who escaped from Zuixianlou during the day.
The man in front of him was thin and his voice was a little hoarse, which made people feel indescribable discomfort all over their body.
This man is the master of Tianxiahui, Li Qingzhu, the master of the White Bone Sword, one of the Four Fast Swords.
"I was eavesdropping on the roof of Zuixian Tower just now . It's absolutely true!"
Hearing this, the man in black said, "Luo Changtian definitely handed the Juntian Order to that waiter!"
"According to what you said, the waiter was very skilled in martial arts. He could fight eight people at once and kill four of them?"
Looking at the man in black in front of him, Li Qingzhu said lightly.
"Exactly!"
After hearing Li Qingzhu's words, the man in black nodded repeatedly: "That kid's skills are full of righteousness, and he uses Buddhist martial arts. His martial arts skills are at least that of a first-class martial artist!"
"A first-rate martial artist is indeed a bit tricky..."
Hearing the words of the man in black, Li Qingzhu pinched his chin, as if thinking about something.
In fact, it is not Li Qingzhu's fault. Buddhist martial arts emphasizes bold and fierce movements.
Even if they are at the same level, top-notch masters of Buddhist martial arts are extremely difficult to deal with .
"Are there any other experts in the inn?"
After thinking about it, Li Qingzhu turned his eyes and asked the man in black.
"No, there is only that guy who is a master."
The man in black recalled and answered truthfully: "In addition to that kid, there was a shopkeeper during the day. Although he looked taller, he was a useless man who didn't know any martial arts. If that kid hadn't been there, I could have stabbed him to death with one sword during the day!"
"That's easy to say."
Hearing the words of the man in black, Li Qingzhu looked towards the dim red sky outside the ruined temple: "This rain won't last long. I'll write a letter and report this to the leader..."
"Please prepare the poisonous smoke of 'Flower Drunk'. This time, we will use the poison to knock out everyone in the inn before we take action."
"Even if that kid has profound skills, he will have to admit defeat under the influence of the poisonous smoke!"
"As long as he inhales a breath of poisonous smoke, even if he resists desperately, I can kill him!"
As he spoke, Li Qingzhu took out a white sword, and a chilling light flashed in his eyes.
