After a while, Chen Ziche asked again, "Will you like me?"

"No." Ankang knew his sexual orientation very clearly.

Chen Ziche listened and didn't say anything.Instead, I feel at peace.It's good that Ankang doesn't hate him.That's good enough.What else could he hope for.

Ankang and Chen Ziche couldn't move anymore, so they found a tree to rest against.

The sky gradually brightened, and Ankang was finally able to see things around him clearly.

Not far from them, people in twos and threes walked slowly in the snow.

"Let's go, let's find other people." At dawn, Ankang no longer held Chen Ziche's hand.They walked in the snow one after the other.

Steward Chen thought over and over all night, but he couldn't think of a good plan.The answer fell on the seventh person and Qingfeng Inn.The people in Qianjin Town knew that there was something wrong with the Qingfeng Inn, but the government couldn't find out. It's really strange.Not to mention that the inn is in collusion with the government.If this is the case, if he rashly went to Qingfeng Inn to inquire, he would definitely end up with nothing.

Chen Butler pushed open the window of the guest room and glanced at the street outside, just in time to see the two beggars, one big and one small, that he saw yesterday squatting under the eaves of the opposite house, nibbling on the steamed buns in their hands.

Steward Chen turned his attention to the two beggars.

He must investigate the young master's matter.I am afraid of encountering resistance from the local government.With these two beggars, news can be sent outside.

On the same day, Steward Chen drew portraits of them, and together with the portraits of Ankang and others, they handed them over to the beggars in the dark.

Steward Chen took out a tael of silver and put it in the beggar's dirty hands, and at the same time handed him the packed portraits, telling him, "Keep these portraits away. We are going to visit the Qingfeng Inn tomorrow. We haven't come out for two days, and our Anfu will definitely send people to look for it. If you see someone coming to look for us, then give them this portrait and tell them that there is a problem with Qingfeng Inn."

"Remember, we are Anfu, Yuyang County."

The beggar took the money, nodded quickly, and couldn't help persuading, "Master, kindhearted, wait until there are more of you before going. The Qingfeng Inn is really evil."

Butler Liu smiled wryly, "No matter what, we have to find the young master."

In addition to arranging the beggar's affairs, Butler Liu also asked Wu Dachen to rush to Yuyang immediately with the letter he wrote, and tell the master what they have collected so far.

After another night of worrying in Fuyun Inn, Butler Liu took his servants to Qingfeng Inn.

The only clerk in the hall of the Qingfeng Inn saw the guest, and immediately greeted the guest warmly, "Guest officer, the price of our Qingfeng Inn is the most fair."

Butler Liu couldn't help frowning, the words the man said were exactly the same as what he heard when he came in yesterday. "We want two rooms."

When the man heard this, the smile on his face froze, and soon he put on his smile again. He bowed his head and bowed his head out of caution, with a humble look. "Guest officer, you don't know that the beds in our store are not big. One bed can't sleep three people."

Steward Liu pouted and said, "We came from other places, and we don't have enough money, so we can only live in one room for the three of us." In fact, he wanted to take care of the large number of people in the room.

"Guest officer, don't worry, the price of our Qingfeng Inn is the most fair. Other inns cost [-] yuan a room, but we only need [-] yuan a room." The waiter seemed to be sincerely trying to win over the guests, and immediately talked about cheaper rooms.

Liu Butler saw that the buddy said this, and felt that there was a bigger problem here.The price of accommodation in this inn is actually half cheaper than that in Fuyun Inn.He pretended to be thinking, and after a while, his face showed a bit of embarrassment, "Man, to tell you the truth, the few of us went out and did business for more than half a year. We didn't make much money, and all the money we brought from home were lost. Yes. Now the travel expenses home are really tight."

Seeing a guest say this, it is difficult for the buddy to persuade him.I thought to myself, look at the clothes on you, you are not a person with a tight schedule.I have been in business for more than half a year, so I don't have a lot of money.Seeing that this middle-aged man is accompanied by five servants, he must be rich.What are you crying about with me?When I put you down at night, I must search and search.It really makes you penniless.

The clerk thought about a lot of things in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He respectfully led Butler Liu and the others upstairs, took out the key on his waist, and opened two rooms.

The inside of the house is indeed different from the lobby.The lobby is half new and not old, and there is still dust. The rooms upstairs are even cleaner and tidy than Fuyun Inn.

"If you have something to do, you can call the little one. The little one will sit in the lobby." The man smiled obsequiously, "The little one will leave first."

After the man left, Steward Liu took a long breath.Greet the servant in the house, "Quickly check if there is anything weird in the house."

The three of them searched the house carefully, but found nothing.

Sighing, Steward Liu took out the sesame seed cakes he bought on the street from his bag and distributed them to the boys in the house, "I'll sleep first, and you guys will watch over first. We'll take turns sleeping at night. You are not allowed to eat anything in this shop. Eat what we bought outside. Let the six sons in the next room also pay attention." The six sons are apprentices led by Butler Liu.

Shuanzi responded, opened the door and went to the next door to tell Liu Zi.

After failing to sleep well for two nights, Butler Liu was exhausted physically and mentally.He lay on the bed thinking for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously.

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.Butler Liu suddenly woke up from his sleep.He opened his eyes several times back and forth and sat up.The other two servants in the room looked at him.Butler Liu made a silent gesture.

The clerk shouted outside the door, "Guest officer, I have made some hot tea and brought you some tea."

Butler Liu glanced at Shuanzi, Shuanzi opened the door knowingly, took the teapot from the clerk's hand, and said to the clerk with a smile, "Oh, it's cold today, so there's no shortage of hot tea. Thank you."

"It's okay, it's okay. It should be." The clerk was still holding a teapot in his hand, seeing that the door of the opposite room was also opened, he immediately passed the teapot over, "Guest officer, I've made some hot tea, and here's tea for you .”

"Okay." The sixth son took the teapot, glanced at Shuanzi, ignored the innkeeper, turned around and closed the door.

Shuanzi put the teapot on the table, picked up three cups from the table naturally, and poured three cups of hot tea.

Butler Liu just woke up, and when his mouth was dry, he pushed a cup of hot tea in front of him.In the process of moving the teacup, the cup was full of tea, and the hot tea fell on Butler Liu's index finger.He was scorched, "Hiss."

Steward Liu shook his hand quickly, trying to get rid of the feeling of being burned.Looking at the index finger again, three small blisters appeared in a short period of time.Sometimes if people are not going well, drinking cold water will clog their teeth.Butler Liu sighed inwardly, he would be scalded for drinking a cup of tea.

"Housekeeper, we brought our own cold water. This tea is hot, let's drink the water we brought." Shunzi, another servant in the room, said as he opened the package, and took out a kettle made of bamboo from it.

"Forget it. Just drink the water we brought. We don't drink the water from their inn." Butler Liu seemed to have found some comfort, and also found a reason for himself.

Butler Liu took a nap in the afternoon, so he asked Shuanzi to rest, and he and Shunzi sat by the table to watch the night.

In the middle of the night, the man knocked on the door again.

The "dong dong dong" knock on the door was particularly loud in the silent night, and the wind outside the window was whistling, creating a sense of terror for no reason.

Goosebumps immediately appeared on Liu Butler's body.

The clerk called outside the door, "Guest officer, do you want to pour Yexiang?" He looked at the light in the room and yelled inwardly, but he called the door without giving up.There is a fat sheep in it.

Butler Liu opened the door expressionlessly, and saw the clerk holding a lantern in one hand and a wooden barrel in the other, with a flattering expression on his face. "Trouble buddy, you don't need to pour it." Seeing that there was no light in the closed room opposite, Butler Liu frowned and yelled badly in his heart.

"Oh." The man responded.He turned around with a look of dissatisfaction.A duck with a full mouth, can you still let him run away?

There was no light in the opposite room, presumably because he drank tea.The man didn't knock on the door, but stood at the opposite door and shouted, "Guest officer, do you want to pour Yexiang?"

Naturally, no one in the house responded.

The man didn't dare to stay longer, so he smiled at Steward Liu, "I won't disturb your rest. Guest officer, go to bed early."

Butler Liu closed the door expressionlessly.

"Shuanzi, Shuanzi. Wake up." He immediately walked quickly to the bed and woke Shuanzi who was sleeping.

Shunzi looked at the nervous Butler Liu in bewilderment. Before he could ask, Butler Liu hurriedly said, "Let's go to the opposite room to see Liu Zi and the others."

The room opposite was unlocked, but housekeeper Liu easily opened the door.Shunzi held the candlestick and headed for the house.

I saw the six sons and three lying on the table unsteadily.

Each of them had a teacup by hand.There was still half a cup of tea left in the teacup by Liu Zi.

Butler Liu thought about it for a while, and then he understood what was going on inside. "Someone has drugged the water. Shuanzi, go downstairs and have a look. We have to leave quickly."

He probed the noses of the three servants, but luckily, they were all panting.

Shuanzi went downstairs lightly, and found a candlestick on the cabinet in the lobby, but there was no sign of the assistant.He hurried back and reported the situation to Butler Liu.

"Let's take one each, let's go now." Steward Liu took the lead downstairs with the six sons on his back.

There was only a little light from a candlestick in the hall.The dim candlelight illuminated a small area of ​​the counter.

Butler Liu took down the door bolt of the lobby door, carried the six sons on his back, and led the remaining two people to rush to the street.He initially planned to go to Fuyun Inn to stay.

"Master kindhearted." A sudden voice came out in the darkness, startled Butler Liu, and even knocked his six sons off his body.

The beggar came out from the shadows. He looked at Steward Liu with the person on his back, and knew that something must have happened.He hurriedly said, "Master, come with me."

Going to Fuyun Inn is not safe with beggars.Who knows whether Qingfeng Inn colluded with the government or not.Butler Liu only took a moment to think, and then led the people to follow the beggar.

The author has something to say:

Butler Liu: Well, it's thrilling, I won't be made into a human | meat | steamed stuffed bun.

Ankang: Calm down!Calm down!little things.The worst is to be sold as a young man like us.We are racing against the boys, Steward Liu, do you consider participating?
