Riding a motorcycle on the road of revenge

Chapter 126: 21 paper-like masks, are you robbing money?

When Xiaoyue saw that Shopkeeper Ma changed his words, her expression returned to normal and she sat back down.

Seeing that the person was not leaving, Shopkeeper Ma hurriedly said, "Madam Rong, if it is convenient for you, I will go and make arrangements, and we will leave after that."

"convenient."

"Then please sit down and wait for me for a moment."

Shopkeeper Ma politely left the room and closed the door gently.

Xiaoyue was quietly "drinking tea" and eating snacks. She replaced the tea from Shopkeeper Ma with her own Lingquan. After drinking the Lingquan, she could no longer drink any other water.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

Xiaoyue bit off a piece of dessert and sighed to herself.

The dessert is ok, not too sweet, soft and tasty.

After eating half a plate of snacks and drinking a pot of tea, Shopkeeper Ma came back with sweat all over his forehead.

"Madam Rong, everything has been arranged. You can go now. But there are three other people in the same carriage. Does Madam Rong mind?"

Don't mind! You've arranged everything.

"As long as the carriage is not crowded."

"Not crowded, not crowded. The carriage is very spacious. Five or six people can sit there easily."

Shopkeeper Ma smiled ingratiatingly and asked Xiaoyue to go downstairs.

However, Xiaoyue discovered that the stairs she took to go down were not the same stairs she had taken to come in. Instead, she went out to the backyard of the teahouse. There was already parked a horse-drawn carriage that looked extremely ordinary but very sturdy and had a large carriage.

Not far away, there were three young men in elegant clothes, talking in low voices.

A little further away, there was a burly black man with a stubble on his face, with a whip on his waist, looking up at the sky with boredom.

Shopkeeper Ma walked towards the three people with a smile and greeted them familiarly.

The three men responded to Shopkeeper Ma and naturally saw Xiaoyue. They stopped chatting and looked at Xiaoyue with interest.

Shopkeeper Ma did not introduce Xiaoyue to them, and even though they were curious, they did not ask.

Xiaoyue nodded to the three people politely and distantly. The three people followed Xiaoyue's example and nodded awkwardly.

Shopkeeper Ma asked several people to get in the car. He was the last one to get in. He closed the door, lowered the curtain, and took out four pieces of black cloth and asked several people to blindfold themselves.

The three men laughed and scolded Shopkeeper Ma for repeating the same old tricks, but Shopkeeper Ma just laughed and said that it was the rule from above and there was nothing he could do about it.

Although they expressed their dissatisfaction, the three of them did not hesitate at all to cover their own eyes.

Xiaoyue didn't say anything. She took the blindfold and blinded herself, then leaned against the wall of the carriage and pretended to take a nap, but in fact she was listening carefully to the movements along the way.

Everyone sat quietly and no one spoke.

The carriage moved smoothly, steadily and slowly, and it took about an hour to stop.

The shopkeeper Ma told the others not to rush to take off the blindfold. He helped them get off the car one by one, and the driver helped them stand steady. The shopkeeper Ma was the last to get off the car.

As soon as he got off the car, he asked the driver to drive it aside.

After standing there for less than a cup of tea, they heard the sound of a horse-drawn carriage, and then heard the visitor greeting the horse shopkeeper.

Xiaoyue sensed the arrival of a carriage and two martial artists, and guessed that they were going to "change trains".

The three people traveling with her didn't show any abnormality. Xiaoyue thought this might be the rule of the underground black market, so she didn't ask and just waited quietly.

Sure enough, Shopkeeper Ma said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I will take you here. I will help you get into the car and wish you good luck."

After saying that, he helped several people get on the new carriage one by one.

One of the two people who came had already jumped into the car and helped the person sit in the car.

Everyone in the car remained silent.

Xiaoyue felt that the car was a bit bumpy and shaky, as if it was going uphill.

After changing the carriage, there were obviously more birds singing outside the carriage than before.

The carriage kept going for about half an hour. Xiaoyue heard other carriages coming from the front and back, but they were not very close, as if they were deliberately keeping a distance. She guessed that most of those carriages were also going to the underground black market.

After driving for about another half an hour, the carriage finally stopped.

At this time, the person in the car finally spoke up: "Please wait a moment. I will help you get off the car and then take the noodles down."

Xiaoyue listened and heard that the carriage behind was not only getting closer, but also slowing down and stopping at a distance. The carriage in front was leaving.

This situation made Xiaoyue feel like the bus "queueing to enter the station" before she traveled through time.

After waiting for a while, the carriage moved forward about ten meters and stopped again. The man and the driver worked together to help them get off the carriage one by one.

The person who picked them up took the black noodles and drove away in the carriage.

Xiaoyue watched the carriage leave and took a look around. Facing the direction they came in was a tall screen wall with a pattern of the Five Poisons on it. There was a row of side rooms on each side, and the doors were all closed.

It was a small yard with no other carriages inside. There were only four of them and a man carrying a tray.

The man came forward very attentively and asked several people if they wanted to buy masks.

There were five identical silver masks on the tray. They looked very ordinary, with average workmanship, and seemed to be made of paper and dyed.

The three men didn't even look at the mask, didn't say anything, just waved their hands and walked away in a very familiar manner.

Xiaoyue only glanced at the mask and then looked away. She found that she couldn't stand looking at masks. Although the mask in front of her was different from the one worn by the masked man, when she saw the mask, the mask of that man and the horrible face under the mask appeared in her mind.

Her heart ached for a moment, and Xiaoyue's breathing stagnated. She looked away, raised her head to the sky, and silently comforted her heart: "Don't worry, it will be fine."

The visitor did not retreat because Xiaoyue looked away, but stepped forward and introduced enthusiastically: "Masks, ten taels of silver each. Madam, would you like one?"

Just this, ten taels, it's robbery!
