Chapter 17 Longmen Inn

To Ping Yao, everyone’s destination is the capital. After all, the title of this volume is “Havoc in the Capital.”

If you want to ask them why they know that the Thirteen Dead Animals will appear in the capital, it is very simple, because they can pinch and count if they don’t move. This has been mentioned more than once in our previous article. .

So, in the afternoon of that day, Huang Donglai, Lin Yuancheng, Tyrell and Fudozi left Xuanqi Sect together.

After getting off Wawu Mountain, they were not in a hurry to go straight to their destination. Instead, at Huang Donglai's suggestion, they went back to the Yellow Gate of Shuzhong first.

On the one hand, Huang Donglai wanted to take this opportunity for Mr. Huang and Fuzi to meet and get to know each other.

On the other hand, they also need Mr. Huang to contact the Feige Gang and bring a message to Sun Yixie who is far away in Hangzhou, and Linghuxiang and Qin Feng who are in the North. Let these guys come and help.

As for Jiang Muchan, due to the special nature of his profession, he has always been elusive, and he did not know where he was going when he left last time, so he did not contact him this time.

In this way, the four of them rested for a few days at Huangmen, prepared the luggage needed for the long journey, and then officially set off for the journey to Beijing.

The distance between Fushun and Beijing, even if you calculate the straight-line distance on the map, is more than 1,500 kilometers; in those days when there were no highways, you also had to count the mountains to climb along the way. It is common for the water to be crossed and the detour to take more than a month.

Therefore, this will undoubtedly be a long journey

On the first day, before everyone left Fushun, the journey was still very pleasant.

As a local leader, Huang Donglai can get high-level hospitality whether he eats or stays here.

But the next day, when they left Fushun and walked thirty miles away, the situation was different.

During the day, the four of them crossed a tributary of Fuxi River early in the morning, and then passed through two sections of mountain roads at Shiziling and Exiangling. At nightfall, they arrived at Tuojiang River. There is a place called Longmen Town.

Some people may have something to say after seeing this, isn't "Longmen" in Guangzhou? Isn't the Longmen Gang in the previous volume a gang there?

I have to mention this. First of all, the place in the previous volume is called "Longmen County", not "Longmen Town"; secondly, the places in China called "Longmen" include counties, towns, villages, passes, mountains, ridges, rivers and bays. In total, there are more than twenty or thirty places, and there are too many with the same name.

The Longmen Town in front of you is just one of them.

Let’s talk about this town, which is built along the river. There are no more than a hundred households and no more than ten shops. There is only one inn in the town.

You can guess the name of the inn, Longmen Inn.

Of course, the Dragon Gate Inn here has nothing to do with the Dragon Gate Inn in the popular martial arts movie. There is no charming proprietress here.There is no chef who is as good as a swordsman.

What do the two have in common? First, they have the same store name, and second, they are both black shops.

Bang bang bang bang

"Come on, come on, stop knocking"

When the knock on the door rang for the fifth time, there was finally an answer from the store. Voice.

The guy who opened the door was in his early thirties. He had an ordinary appearance and was thin, but his figure looked very lean. At this moment, he was holding an oil lamp in one hand and opened the door with the other, looking impatiently. Looking at the people outside, he said fiercely, "What are you knocking? Didn't you see that we are closed?"

Don't think there is anything strange about his attitude. He is originally a member of the black shop, so what? It's a bit gangster, and besides, they have already done enough "business" today, and there is really no need to receive new customers.

Why do you ask, "Can a black shop think that there are too many fat sheep automatically delivered to the door?"

This kind of hacker stack that has been open in the town for a long time is naturally the same as the previous article. The wine shop "Chi Jian Hong" opened in the barren mountains is different. No matter how dark they are, according to their customer flow, it is impossible for them to come in and kill each one.

If they really wanted to do this, the people in the town would have noticed the abnormality and reported it to the authorities.

This Longmen Inn usually only selects people who seem to have no background, people who will not attract investigations and revenge seekers, and people who have huge profits to gain.

If there is no suitable target, they will open it as a normal inn.

In this way, one or several guests will disappear here every ten days and a half, and except for the people in the inn, other guests do not know where the missing people are. Disappear, or disappear after leaving the inn. This is like staying in a hotel when you go out and generally don't care when other guests check out or whether they check out.

Even if some relatives and friends of the victim came to trace the incident afterwards, according to that era, it would usually take several days or even months. At that time, the people in the inn could fully answer that we received so many people every day. There are many people, who are you asking, how can I remember?

To sum up, the waiter of this inn opened the door and took a look. There were three men, two of them looked like Jianghu people, and one was a Taoist priest. Zi looks like he is in his thirties. This combination often means that there is no profit and trouble, so he does not want to do their business.

"Second brother, look at this time, we don't have anywhere else to stay, so it's convenient for you." Huang Donglai was also a sensible person, so he stuffed some money over there.

The money is not much, so it won’t arouse people’s evil intentions, but it is enough to have the effect of “taking someone softly”.

"Tsk" After the boy took the silver, he weighed it in his hand and curled his lips.

Two seconds later, his expression and tone softened, "Hey, OK, OK, come in."

When the guy let them through the door and led them in, he was surprised. I discovered that there were not three people outside the door, but four.When Tyrell was standing outside just now, the little light from the oil lamp in his hand failed to allow him to spot him.

"Hey, this guy is as black as carbon" the guy blurted out without hesitation.

Just when Huang Donglai and the others were thinking about what reason they should use to get this matter out of the way quickly and simply

" Donor, don't be offended, this is Pindao's subordinate The alchemy boy has become blackened by staying in the alchemy room all year round." Fudozi immediately gave an explanation that sounded strange, but there was nothing to argue with.

“Oh” the guy had never practiced elixir before, so he couldn’t handle it, so he just casually agreed without asking any more questions.

Then, he led everyone to the counter, opened the account books on the table, and asked casually, "How many rooms do you want?"

"Two rooms are enough." ." Huang Dong said back.

The subtext of the "Huh" humming of the waiter is very obvious. He is just laughing at them for being poor and not having a room for themselves.

Of course Huang Donglai and others don't care about this. It's very common to encounter this kind of thing when walking in the world. Whenever you encounter such people and such things, you should think about it in your heart and scold them. If you say "dog eyes look down on others" and still want to regain face or something, then you will be exhausted and exhausted.

Children of the Jianghu, if you put it nicely, you should be open-minded, if you put it harshly, you should be thick-skinned. If you can’t bear to be cold-eyed or angry at all, you might as well stay home and don’t come out. .

"Okay, leave a name." Then, the clerk swiped a few dots on the account book and asked as he wrote.

"Huang Da." Huang Donglai replied without thinking.

"Haha." The clerk smiled. When he responded, he had already finished writing these two words on the paper. Then he went to the back of the cabinet to take out two keys and handed them to everyone, "Myself." Go up to the second floor, turn left and go to the two rooms at the end."

"Hey, thank you, little brother." Huang Donglai took the key and thanked him, then went upstairs with his companions.

The guy knew that this guest was not named Huang Da.

Huang Donglai also knew that his name was not Huang Da.

But neither party revealed this, nor did they say much.

This was also a very common situation at the time.

Except for inns run by the government, ordinary inns do not force guests to show directions or identity documents, let alone whether the guests give their real names.

You don’t give your real name because you don’t want to cause trouble.

I can avoid a lot of trouble by not asking for your real name.

Why not do something that is good for both of you.

Gu Yu

Not long after, the four of them arrived at the two rooms at the end of the corridor on the second floor according to what the guy pointed out.

Huang Donglai just winked, and Lin Yuancheng and Tyrell understood it and followed Huang Ge and Fuzi into the same room.

The four of them closed the door. While Lin Yuancheng lit the oil lamp, Huang Donglai had alreadyHe whispered, "There's something wrong with this waiter."

"I can see it too." Lin Yuancheng immediately added, "Not only does he write well, but he also has kung fu."

"Yes." Huang Donglai nodded, "A person like this, working as an ordinary waiter in such a small town, must have some agenda."

"Is it because The landlady here is very beautiful." Tyrell tried to catch up with their thoughts.

"Then why doesn't he do something else, make money, and then pursue the landlady here as a customer?" Huang Donglai rejected Tyrell's reasoning.

"Maybe it's because the boss lady already has a husband." Unexpectedly, Tyrell's reasoning was already at a higher level.

"Damn, what have you learned from the old Taoists in the past month or so?" Huang Donglai was shocked when he heard this, thinking that the other party's logic was a bit strict.

But in fact, as we have mentioned before, Tyrell is not stupid to begin with. He can even be said to be quite smart and talented. He did not say such nonsense before simply because he did not have a good command of the language. Just skilled.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Hearing this, Fuzi couldn't help it, "What do you mean you have learned from the veterans and you are the one who is trying to teach yourself the shit?" Could it be that we taught you the crow of cocks and dogs and thieves on the door?"

He paused, and then continued, "Don't make blind guesses. I saw it as soon as I entered the door. The waiter has a strong blood-sucking aura, which is not a good thing. In addition, there is so much resentment in this inn, it is probably a black shop."

"Yeah, I guess so." Huang Donglai. Echoed, "Maybe this waiter was a well-known master in the world before."

"Then" Tyrell continued, "We have to take care of it"

In the past, with Xiao Lin’s character, after confirming that it was a black shop, he might have turned around and killed with a sword. However, after staying in Xuanqi Sect for more than a month, among those experienced people Subtly, Xiao Lin has become much calmer now.

"No need, don't worry, just go and have a rest." Unexpectedly, Fuzi replied.

"Ah, even though we know it's a black shop, why don't we care?" Huang Donglai asked suspiciously.

"Whatever." Fudozi replied, "I asked you to rest, I didn't say I wanted to rest."

This is true. Fudozi's cultivation level means that even if he has been traveling for a whole day, he can still fight all night without rest.

"Uncle, can you do it alone?" Huang Donglai said again.

"Don't worry about me." Fudozi's tone when he asked this question was not touching, but rather like "use you".

"Then I'm afraid that you haven't gone down the mountain for too long. I don't know how dangerous the world is today. It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows." Huang Donglai answered.

"Ha." Fudozi laughed dryly,Without further explanation, he just said, "Stay calm and go to sleep. We will continue our journey tomorrow morning."

After hearing this, Huang, Lin and Tai looked at each other.

After taking a breath, Huang Donglai still shrugged, "Okay, since you said so, uncle, let's go and have a rest."

After saying that, he simply packed up. I packed up my luggage and ran to the bed next to me.

Lin Yuancheng and Tyrell also said hello and returned to the next room.

Soon, Fudozi was the only one left in the outhouse of this guest room.

The night is deep.

After Huang Donglai fell asleep, Fuzi blew out the oil lamp in the room and sat silently in the darkness.

His eyes were closed, but he was not asleep.

Not only did he not fall asleep, he also extended his perception to every corner of this inn.

Finally, around midnight, Fudozi opened his eyes again.

He stood up and walked out of the room.

He is like a ghost and can move without making any sound.

Obviously it was his first time here, but he walked to the kitchen in the darkness as if he were familiar with it, and found a secret door hidden in the corner.

The secret passage behind the secret door leads all the way to the underground. He walked down the steps without making any sound.

After a while, a lighted room appeared in front of him, which we can call a "real kitchen" for the time being.

At this moment, there are five people standing in the underground kitchen.

Four boys and one girl.

In the corner of the kitchen, there was a couple tied up with ropes. At this time, they were screaming and crying crazily because their child was being dragged by one of the five strong men. Towards a stone platform covered in blood.

"Save it, when you get here, no one will hear you even if you shout until your throat is broken." The strong man pressed the seven or eight-year-old child on the stone platform with his left hand. He picked up a meat cleaver with his right hand.

"Don't be afraid, the third one can do it very quickly, it won't hurt." The only woman among the five said sarcastic words to the couple in a sinister tone, with a look of amusement in her eyes. Joyfully, "Besides, you will be reunited with him soon."

Just when she said this, suddenly, she saw someone at the door from the corner of her eye

"Who?"

The woman's soft drink immediately aroused the reaction of her four accomplices. The five of them turned their attention to the door almost at the same time, and the "third child" also stopped raising the knife. .

"Me." Fudozi's answer was concise and to the point.

"Where did the Taoist priest come from?" the fattest man among the five said immediately.

"Tsk" the next second, a thin and capable man next to him, the guy who had received Huang Donglai and the others before, spat and said, "I'll give it to you around Xu Shi."There were three other people who were let in with the Taoist priest. They looked like low-ranking people in the world, so I didn't pay attention. "

"Humph, second brother, you sometimes make mistakes." The woman sneered at her second brother and said this, then turned to look at Fuzi again, "Well, since it's already You found our secret passage and broke through our secret. You won’t be able to leave today, Chief."

"Joke. "Fudozi was very calm, and he even asked a rhetorical question, "If I don't save a few of you, the poor will go away."

"You don't know whether to live or die. "At this time, the fat man laughed ferociously, and strode closer to Fudozi, "Do you know who our five brothers and sisters are, just because you want to meddle in our own business?"

He looked at it. Fatty, your movements are not slow. Before he finished speaking, he was already in front of Fudozi.

"Today, the Fifth Master will let you open your eyes." Fatty said, and then used his ten powers. He was preparing to kill the "young Taoist priest" in front of him with one move.

At this moment,

Bang

Fudozi's fist was already behind him. Arrive first.

With this punch, the fat man was shattered into pieces of flesh, bone, and blood.

In just an instant, he turned into a living person. A pile of gunk stuck to the walls and floor of the house.
