I traveled through time with my best friend.

"Go and see."

The two walked to the door of the inn. Jiang Xue looked at the name of the inn, "Laifu Inn."

When the waiter at the door saw the visitors, he quickly came out to greet them, "You two, are you staying at the hotel?"

"Well, is there a room?"

"There are exactly two rooms left. Please come in, sir."

Jiang Xue and Zhu Feng followed him in.

The inn is very simple, with only a few simple tables and two floors. I guess the upper room the waiter mentioned is the second floor.

The shopkeeper was dozing off with his hand on the counter, and when he heard someone, he quickly opened his eyes.

The two women saw a flash of surprise in their eyes, and then said nothing.

The waiter took the two people upstairs, opened the two doors on the east side, and said with a smile: "Sir, if you need anything, please call me."

Zhu Feng took out two ingots of silver from his bosom and handed them to the waiter, saying, "Prepare some food and send it up."

"okay."

Jiang Xue continued behind him: "Bring two more jugs of wine."

"alright, please wait."

After the waiter left, Jiang Xue sat on a chair and began to massage her shoulders. She had been sitting in the carriage for two days and her back and waist were sore.

Zhu Feng looked around and felt that something was wrong with this inn, so he said to Jiang Xue: "Miss, this inn feels a little strange."

"Strange?" Jiang Xue looked around. "What's strange?"

"I can't explain it, but the shopkeeper's eyes were very strange just now."

Jiang Xue waved her hand and said, "Don't be afraid."

When the waiter went down with the silver, he looked at the shopkeeper with a smile and said, "Shopkeeper, we are open."

The shopkeeper was not happy at all, and said worriedly: "Have you forgotten what a miserable situation the woman who lived here before was in?"

The waiter said nonchalantly, "Boss, you are afraid of the ropes after being bitten once. This happened a year ago. It's been so long. How can it be so weird?"

"That's hard to say. You recruited these people, so go and drive them away."

The waiter was not happy and said, "The shopkeeper didn't say anything just now, it's just because he likes the girl's money."

"You...ah..."

"Shopkeeper, stop sighing. It's okay." He put the silver in front of the shopkeeper. "Now Anren County is flooded. We haven't received any money for a long time. If we don't receive any money, our inn will not be able to operate."

The shopkeeper took a look at the shiny silver in front of him, and finally compromised: "Well, go and prepare the food."

"Got it."

The waiter then happily walked towards the kitchen.

Jiang Xue opened the window and looked out. The sky gradually darkened and she suddenly felt a cold gaze falling on her.

Jiang Xue shuddered all over, and then immediately closed the window, feeling frightened, she asked, "Why do I feel like someone is staring at me?"

There was a sudden knock on the door. Jiang Xue looked over nervously, "Who?"

"Sir, the food is ready. I've brought it to you."

Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief. If she had known this earlier, she would not have let Zhu Feng go out.

He walked over quickly and opened the door. The waiter came in with food and said, "Sir, there is only one pot of peach blossom wine left. I'll bring it up for you."

"Ah."

The waiter placed the dishes on the table one by one, then looked at Jiang Xue with a smile and said, "The dishes are ready, enjoy your meal."

After the waiter left, Jiang Xue quickly closed the door and looked at the food in front of her, deciding to wait for Zhu Feng to come back and eat together.

In less than half an hour, Zhu Feng climbed in through the window.

Jiang Xue walked over immediately and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhu Feng said seriously, "There is indeed something wrong with this inn. I heard that a murder happened in this inn a year ago."

"What murder?"

"It's related to the He family. I heard that the girl was a prostitute. The young master of the He family fell in love with her at first sight. The two fell in love with each other over time. This inn was their tryst place."

"After the young master of the He family redeemed the girl, he prepared to marry her."

"And this inn became the girl's family. On the wedding night, the girl happily waited for her lover to pick her up, but she never expected that what she was waiting for was to have her eyes gouged out."

"What?" Jiang Xue was stunned, her heart in her throat, "What happened to that girl in the end?"

Zhu Feng continued, "It seems that she is dead. The young master of the He family approached the girl for the sake of his first wife, in order to get something from her."

Jiang Xue frowned, "What do you have to have on that girl?"

Zhu Feng shook his head, "Miss, I heard that since that girl died, all the girls who entered this inn died tragically and had their eyes gouged out. Let's leave quickly tomorrow."

"Ah."

Jiang Xue nodded, looked at Zhu Feng and said, "Eat something first."

After finishing their meal, they lay down to rest. Jiang Xue was scared, so she pulled Zhu Feng to lie on the bed.

into the night.

It started raining heavily outside at some point, and the rumbling thunder woke Jiang Xue up.

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a flash of lightning. Jiang Xue saw a woman in red stroking something beside the bed, muttering, "Where are my eyes? Where are my eyes?"

Jiang Xue was sweating all over. Zhu Feng suddenly covered Jiang Xue's mouth and whispered, "Miss, don't make a sound. She can't see."

Jiang Xue nodded, and suddenly a silver light flashed in front of Jiang Xue, and the woman in red suddenly had a dagger in her hand.

With the help of lightning, Jiang Xue saw the woman's appearance clearly. There were two black holes where her eyes were, and a sinister smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

The woman's mouth slowly opened, "Found it."

The next second, the dagger in his hand stabbed towards Jiang Xue. Jiang Xue closed her eyes in fear. Zhu Feng kicked the woman in the chest.

The woman dropped the dagger in her hand in pain and took a few steps back.

Zhu Feng immediately pulled Jiang Xue up and said, "Miss, please leave quickly."

Jiang Xue nodded, and without delay opened the door, turned around and shouted to Zhu Feng: "Be careful."

When the woman saw that she was stopped, she became angry and shouted: "Give me back my eyes." Then she attacked Zhufeng.

Jiang Xue came down from the second floor and ran out in the rain. She should find the police now, Jiang Xue thought to herself, and ran towards the county government office.

In the Yamen.

Pei Zhijin was sitting there after a fierce battle, while the county magistrate was standing there with his head down, looking frightened.

Looking at the assassins all over the yard, the county magistrate's legs went weak and he said, "Sir, it's all my fault..."

Pei Zhijin interrupted directly: "Find out the identities of those assassins."

"Yes."

Wen Yu looked at the county magistrate and said, "Master Zhang, do you want to wait here until dawn?"

Magistrate Zhang finally reacted and bowed to Pei Zhijin, saying, "I will check it out right away."

A guard walked in quickly and said to Pei Zhijin: "Sir, there is a woman outside who said that someone was killed in Lai Fu Inn."
