Uncle Chen's hand was already in the quilt, and he pulled out the knife hidden under his body. Whenever he went on a long journey, he would always hide a knife and poison.

I have saved myself many times because of my own caution.

If they just killed the shopkeeper, they would be exposed, which was why they had not taken action yet.

Otherwise, based on Lao Wu's temper, he would have taken action long ago.

"Eh" the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Liu Yu walked in quickly. Seeing the tea in the shopkeeper's hand, his eyes lit up: "Shopkeeper, I'm really thirsty, bring me some water!" As he said that, he snatched the water from the shopkeeper's hand and drank it in one gulp.

As if he was still savoring the taste, he handed the cup to the shopkeeper and asked, "Any more?"

"No more." The shopkeeper glanced at Liu Yu and walked out with the teapot.

Liu Yu gave Master Chen San a reassuring look and followed him out.

When they arrived at the inn, they found that only the innkeeper and she were left. Liu Yu directly asked for the antidote.

The shopkeeper didn't want to give anything to the person who had ruined his business.

"You'd better think it over. I'm King Qi's man. If anything happens to me, do you think King Qi can't touch General Wang Xun, but he can touch you?"

"It's not poison, he won't die." Originally, he wanted to knock out Master Chen San and send him directly to the back mountain.

Liu Yu was stunned. Could it be a knockout drug?

"How should I know?" She murmured like a child who had done something wrong, and then said domineeringly:

"Then I don't care. If you don't give me the antidote, I will tell King Qi that you are trying to be immoral to me."

The shopkeeper pondered, in fact, he was the one who gave the order.

Originally, he scoffed at Liu Yu's words, but the woman in front of him was right. No matter whose orders he received, if this woman really said so, he would only die.

The shopkeeper took out the ring key, threw it into Liu Yu's arms, turned around and left, as if he was really afraid of having something happen between him and Liu Yu.

Liu Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, pulled out the cork, put it under his nose and smelled it, and the dizziness completely disappeared.

In order to stay awake, she bit the tip of her tongue.

She waited there for a while, and when there was indeed nothing, she turned around and went back to the room.

Mr. Chen San looked at her worriedly and wrote on her hand: "Are you okay?"

Liu Yu shook his head.

He wrote again:

"Don't do this next time. I have a way to deal with it."

"Okay." She mouthed back.

They stopped discussing this and started discussing how to get out of this situation.

Half an hour later.

Twenty-five assassins hiding near the inn were all killed.

At the same time, several farmers who had colluded with Wang Xun also fell.

Another hour passed, and the door of the old county magistrate's room, who was taking a nap, was opened quietly.

The old county magistrate looked at the people who came in with horror.

“You guys…you guys…”

"Borrow a place to hide."

Inside the yamen, it was as if nothing had happened, and two rows of yamen runners changed shifts.

At the end of the You hour, a group of men came to the outside of the inn. They were all big and strong with stern faces. They walked straight to the counter and said something to the owner.

After a while, the shopkeeper went to the second floor, and the men found a seat in the lobby and sat down. They seemed to be drinking tea, but their eyes unintentionally looked up at the second floor from time to time.

There was a knock on Liu Yu's door.

She and Mr. Chen San looked at each other, nodded, stood up and opened the door.

"Madam, the carriage you asked me to prepare to go to the back mountain to find the old doctor is now ready."

"Yes." Liu Yu nodded, turned around and said to Mr. Chen San:

"Husband, you and the shopkeeper go downstairs and wait for me. I will find someone to carry my brother up."

"No ..."

Before the shopkeeper could start speaking, Liu Yu's people had already gone downstairs and left the inn. After a while, they came with two men who were holding carrying poles in their hands. It was obvious that they were porters temporarily hired from the street.

"Carry my brother up and follow me." Liu Yu ordered.

The porter moved skillfully and carried Uncle Chen and his quilt down to the second floor.

Liu Yu acted as if he should be polite, and walked up to the shopkeeper and said naturally:

"Let's go!"

The shopkeeper did not move. He followed the order from his superiors and tried to lure Master Chen San to the back mountain.

When he was about to carry Uncle Chen over, he hesitated and was about to knock again.

Liu Yu spoke before him:

"Boss, don't you know that when dealing with people, the most important thing is to act according to circumstances? Now that my eldest brother hasn't woken up for so many days, he could be in danger at any time.

If we go out and Big Brother is gone, why would we seek medical help? We might as well stay with Big Brother in this inn and see him for the last time."

The shopkeeper understood, and the person who was monitoring Liu Yu nearby also understood what the woman meant. Chen Zhihe was afraid that his eldest brother would die, so he must take the person with him.

The man paused for just a moment and then agreed. If General Wang could kill Chen Zhihe, why would he be afraid that he could not kill his dying elder brother?

"All right!"

The shopkeeper nodded, took Liu Yu, followed by Chen Sanye and the others, passed the market, went out of the gate of Quanxing County, and went to the back mountain.

As soon as they reached the bottom of the mountain, a group of people suddenly rushed out from behind and surrounded them.

Liu Yu saw who were coming and found that they were the group of men sitting in the lobby of the inn.

"Who are you and what do you want to do?" Master Chen San drew his sword and blocked Liu Yu and the others behind him.

The muscular man in the lead stood up and laughed: "Of course it's Elder Chen's people."

"You..." Chen Sanye's eyes widened, and he turned to look at the man who was monitoring Liu Yu and the shopkeeper; "What do you mean?"

"Of course, we have to escort you to the mountain to seek medical advice." The shopkeeper smiled happily.

What else did Mr. Chen San not understand? As if he had figured it out, he suddenly looked at Liu Yu:

"You introduced them all. Could it be that you betrayed me?"

Liu Yu pretended to be distressed:

"Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately."

Shopkeeper and soldiers, you are not flying away on your own, but breaking your husband's wings, so that he will realize that it is possible to fly away.

Women have the most vicious hearts!

Liu Yu didn't care what they thought, and continued:

"My dear, I have my own reasons. If I don't do it, they will make me a military prostitute.

Look at how ugly and burly they are. If you really serve them, you will lose face. I can only betray you.

It's your fault that you shouldn't have changed the route." After saying that, she walked to the side of a man opposite.

When did they ask her to be a military prostitute? It turns out that women's words cannot be trusted.

Master Chen San covered his chest with his hands, a flash of grief in his eyes, and then he laughed sarcastically: "Hehehe..."

After a while, he stared at Liu Yu and everyone present with a grim look, and asked in a cold voice: "Do you want to use me to threaten the emperor and the court?"

"Hmph, you don't need to know." As he spoke, someone pushed Master Chen San.
