The prince is very cruel

Hearing this, Guan Ning frowned. He knew Sheng Qi's alcohol tolerance. Even if he couldn't drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, it was still a huge capacity. How could he possibly get drunk? And Sheng Qi knew that he was leaving Heishui County tonight.

He turned Shengqi over, but the guy was so drunk that he didn't respond at all and had fallen asleep.

"Katsushichi."

"Shengqi!" He shouted repeatedly, but there was still no response, and he was suddenly speechless.

"Brother Ning, I see your companion is already drunk. Why don't we wait until tomorrow?"

"Otherwise, how can you carry it?"

"It's dark and the road is long. Even if we are on horseback, it's not convenient. It would be bad if something unexpected happens." Tang Jiu was being dragged away by Tang Zhu'er at this time, and he stepped forward to persuade her to stay.

Guan Ning smiled bitterly and gave up calling Shengqi. This guy was too drunk.

No one could carry his weight, and he would easily fall off the horse if he was placed on it. He had no choice but to stay for another night. He had even thought of his farewell words.

"In that case, thank you very much, Master Escort."

"I'm afraid my brother and I will have to spend another night at the escort agency."

"Of course, of course!" Tang Jiu waved his hand. "Brother Ning, a young hero like you is rare in a century. It's an honor for the Tang family that you're employed by our Ziwu Escort Agency!"

"Zhu'er, why don't you go and clean up the room for the young master?"

When Guan Ning heard this, his face changed. He didn't want to cause any trouble. Tang Zhu was obviously too enthusiastic, and he was unwilling to accept it.

He immediately said, "No need, Master, I can do it myself."

"As for the room, any guest room will do. My brother and I will share one."

Tang Zhu'er was dissatisfied. Was he that bad? He was so evasive. It must be that bitch Tang Xiang'er who was interfering!

She thought coldly in her heart, and then a sweet smile appeared on her lovely face again: "Brother Ning, how can we do that? If it gets out, people will say that our escort agency doesn't know how to repay a favor and neglects our guests."

Having said that, what else could Guan Ning say? He just hoped Sheng Qi would sober up quickly and leave.

It is absolutely unsafe to stay in Blackwater Town for too long!

However, how could Shengqi be so drunk? He was puzzled, but he didn't think much about it.

Shortly after.

Guan Ning returned to the guest room of the escort agency to rest.

The noise faded away, leaving only the chirping of insects in the night.

He and Shengqi were originally in different guest rooms, but Guan Ning was worried, so he sneaked in. If the pursuers caught up, he could at least protect Shengqi.

But what he didn't expect was that Shengqi's snoring was deafening!

"Hu, hu, hu!"

"This guy." Guan Ning shook his head helplessly, found a blanket, put two chairs together to make a bed, and then blew out the candle.

He slowly covered himself with the blanket and prepared to go to sleep, but the knife never left his side.

This is how he spent the days on the run, and soon his vigilance paid off.

The quiet night lasted for a while, and suddenly, a light sound of footsteps was heard in the inky black night.

Guan Ning's closed eyes opened instantly, like a divine sword in the dark night, and a hand had grasped the hilt of the sword at some point.

creak...

The door of the guest room was suddenly pushed open.

In the pitch-black night, it was an extremely terrifying scene.

I saw a foot step in, looking a little like a thief, holding a very weak candle in its hand, and looking inside.

He saw two chairs and a blanket, but no one.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, a cold long knife was placed on his neck from behind.

He was startled for a moment, as if he had encountered a demon, and almost screamed.

Guan Ning appeared behind him at some point and asked coldly, "Who sent you?"

At this moment, he could kill anyone at any time.

"No, don't kill me..." the man said.

Guan Ning was shocked. A woman?

"Who sent you? Tell me!" he growled.

"me……"

"I said, I said, I am..." The woman's voice trembled. Obviously, she didn't expect that someone would be guarding her and she would be discovered. She panicked at the moment and suddenly bumped into Guan Ning and ran away.
