Chapter 78 Host, you have played your part
In the evening, Li Lan and his party arrived in An County. Seeing that it was getting late, they went directly to the inn and asked for a separate courtyard to stay in.
"Li Yan, hurry up."
"Yes, girl."
After a while, a face exactly like Mrs. Wu's appeared in the bronze mirror, and it was impossible to tell the real from the fake.
"Your craftsmanship is quite good."
Li Lan looked at himself in the bronze mirror with satisfaction, stood up and patted him on the shoulder.
"Master Youtian, come and finish this quickly. Travel overnight and reach Bozhou Prefecture as soon as possible."
"Okay, Lan girl."
……
Half an hour later, Li Guangjie supported Mrs. Wu and walked out of the inn. Seeing Li Xi about to get on the carriage, he hurried forward, shook her hand, and said with a sob, "Miss Xi, you must take good care of Miss Lan."
Seeing "Mrs. Wu" with tears in her eyes and a face full of reluctance and sadness at separation, her eyes lit up and her heart was very excited. She quickly shook her hand and said sadly, "Mrs. Wu, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of our girl. You and Mr. Youtian, take care of yourselves too."
"Good good."
After taking a look at "Mrs. Wu" and the others, Li Xi turned around and got on the carriage with reluctance in his eyes.
"Mrs. Wu" wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, sniffed, and said to the carriage road: "Lady Lan, your master Tian hurt his waist while traveling today, so he couldn't come to see you off. Don't blame me. It's late at night, so please walk slowly."
"it is good."
Looking at the carriage going away, "Mrs. Wu" stood there, tears in her eyes and sobbing in her heart. Suddenly, her body trembled and she fell backwards.
"Host, aren't you overdoing this drama?"
Li Lan rolled his eyes internally, thinking, "What do you know? If I don't act anymore, how am I going to deceive that green tea guy who's even better at acting?"
At this moment, a strong arm supported her shoulders, picked her up by the waist and walked into the inn, leaving "Li Guangjie" standing there in a daze.
Back in the room, "Mrs. Wu" opened her eyes and looked at "Li Youtian" in front of her. She blinked, coughed lightly, and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"
The man stared at her closely and said in a deep voice, "Are you playing to your heart's content?"
After hearing his words, "Mrs. Wu," who had been lying on the bed, touched her nose uncomfortably, sat up, looked at the man and said with a smile, "Are you afraid that someone else will pretend to be my husband and you're jealous, so you rushed over here?"
"Girl, I am your husband."
Li Lan: …
"Your disguise is quite good, very realistic, and you look exactly like Mr. Arita."
Seeing that she was deliberately changing the subject, Zhou Yuntian smiled and reached out to gently rub the fine hair on her head.
Li Lan's body stiffened when he felt the warm touch. He looked up at the man with a smile in his eyes and forgot to react for a moment.
At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door. Zhou Yuntian's eyes darkened, and he looked at the door expressionlessly. Sensing his displeasure, Li Lan got out of bed, stood on tiptoe, and gently patted his shoulder to comfort him. Then, he immediately changed his demeanor and walked forward to open the door.
"Mom, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Come in quickly. Your father just hugged me and my waist seems to be worse. Come in and give him a massage."
"Hey, hey."
As soon as the door closed, the visitor couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself: If this sight could kill, he would have died several times by now.
"Li Yan, this is your father. No, that's wrong. This is Master Zhou Yuntian."
Li Lan realized that he had said something wrong and subconsciously slapped his forehead hard to correct himself.
Zhou Yuntian, who was standing aside, was startled by her patting her head. He quickly reached out and rubbed her red forehead, frowning with disapproval in his eyes.
Hearing Zhou Yuntian's name, Li Yan was startled at first. Then, watching the interaction between the two of them, he wanted to escape. After a moment's thought, he quickly stepped forward, bowed, and saluted.
"Master Zhou."
"Ah."
"Li Yan, go back to your room and rest first. You may not be able to sleep tonight."
"Yes, girl."
Late at night, a dozen masked men in black stepped under the moonlight, climbed over the wall, and entered a separate courtyard at the back of the inn. The leading man in black raised his hand, and the others behind him quickly rushed into one of the rooms.
With a "bang", the door was kicked open, and the two people lying on the bed sat up in shock. The woman hugged the quilt and leaned into the arms of the man beside her, saying in fear:
"Who are you? What do you want to do? Do you still have the law?"
"Wang Fa? Why do you say that, Junior Sister?"
A voice came from far away, and more than ten men in black quickly made way for the person coming.
Zhu Qingshan, dressed in a white robe, walked into the room with his hands behind his back. Then, with a wave of his hand, all the men in black retreated to the door and closed it thoughtfully.
Watching Zhu Qingshan walk over to the round table in the middle of the room and sit down, Li Lan's eyes flashed with disdain, and he couldn't help but spit inwardly: "This old man is so confident, coming out late at night to do something bad, and wearing a white shirt. He's full of evil intentions, and yet he pretends to be a pure and heroic man. Pah, disgusting."
Zhu Qingshan sat down, looking at the frightened woman on the bed with a smug look in his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes swept over to Li Youtian next to him. Seeing his expressionless face, he couldn't help but frown, wondering when he had become so calm.
"It's you. What do you want to do? You killed my father, and it's not enough. Do you want to kill us too?"
As she spoke, she threw herself into the arms of the man beside her with a face full of sorrow. She pinched the man's thigh hard under the quilt with her hand, gnashing her teeth and whispering, "Are you acting? Why are you pretending to be so profound?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she straightened up again, looking at Zhu Qingshan with tears on her face. She didn't care at all about the man who was stiffened by her twist.
"Junior sister, as long as you hand over your discipleship certificate, I will let you go for the sake of Master."
"Men's book? Brother, what do you want the Men's book for?"
Listening to the woman's suddenly soft voice, and looking at her tearful face, although she was already old, she still had a charming demeanor. Zhu Qingshan's heart trembled for no reason, and he said softly:
"Junior sister, only by obtaining the sect book can I better fulfill the master's last wish."
"Brother, please tell me the truth. What is this all about? If you have a higher goal, I will give you the sect book."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Qingshan's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, "Are you serious?"
"It counts."
"Okay, I now serve Prince Ning, who is the true emperor."
"Brother, be careful with your words."
"Oh, Prince Ning will arrive in Bozhou Prefecture soon. As long as you give me the book of sect, I will soar to the sky. Junior sister, when the time comes, I will make sure you live a life of luxury."
Having said this, she looked at the man next to her with disdain.
"Oh? Are you trying to steal my wife right in front of me?"
"Oh, so what? Li Youtian, you're just a useless piece of shit."
"is it?"
The man's voice was cold, his brow furrowed, his patience completely gone. Li Lan, feeling the man's cold presence beside him, sighed inwardly: "Alright, enough with the jealousy, time to call it a day."
"Zhou Da, I don't want to hear another word from him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Qingshan realized that something was wrong. He was frightened and wanted to shout, but was knocked unconscious by a knife from a man in black who suddenly appeared.
"Everything outside the door has been cleared."
"Yes, son."
Zhou Da dragged Zhu Qingshan out. Suddenly, there was a fierce sound of swords clashing outside the door. It took a long time before it slowly subsided.
"Sir, everything has been dealt with."
"Okay, bring him back to Bozhou government office secretly tonight."
"Yes, son."
After a while, the footsteps outside the door became farther and farther away, and the courtyard returned to peace.
At this moment, Li Lan, who was sitting on the bed, stole a glance at Zhou Yuntian, immediately picked up her coat, turned around, and prepared to get out of bed. Suddenly, a strong long arm came from behind and wrapped around her waist. Then, her waist tightened, and she was lifted up by a powerful force. She spun in the air and sat steadily on the thighs of the man opposite her.
