Jide stood up quickly, nodded and said some kind words to the soldiers.

The soldier seemed very impatient and pushed him away, cursing. He pointed the big knife at Ada and shouted angrily, meaning to ask her to take off the hijab for inspection.

Linghu Yuan's face darkened, and the tea in his hand suddenly spilled out.

The soldier did not expect that someone would dare to splash tea on him, and he was caught off guard and was splashed in the face.

"what!"

The tea had just been brought by the waiter, and it was still very hot. It made the soldier's face burn with pain. He dropped the big knife in his hand and covered his face.

When another soldier next to him saw this, he screamed and slashed at Linghu Yuan with his sword.

"Huh!" Linghu Yuan snorted coldly, raised his foot and kicked the soldier in the chest.

The soldier was kicked away and landed hard on a table next to him, "Bang——"

The table was shattered, and the bowls, chopsticks and plates on the table were scattered all over the floor, making the guests at this table jump up in shock.

What happened suddenly shocked everyone in the room to stand up, wondering what happened?

Other soldiers rushed over and surrounded their table.

The man holding the portrait was furious, "You are so bold and unruly that you even dare to beat the officers and soldiers, arrest them all and take them away!"

"I wonder who dares?!" Linghu Yuan shouted coldly, then stood up slowly, brushed off the non-existent dust on his body, and glanced at these people coldly.

"You...you can actually speak Daxing dialect?" The man holding the portrait looked at him in surprise, "Who are you?"

In recent years, many people here have learned Daxing dialect, but the accent is not so pure at all.

Linghu Yuan ignored him, pulled Ada up and started to leave, "Get away!"

A dozen soldiers drew their swords and blocked their way.

"You injured the officers and soldiers and you still want to leave?" The man looked at Ada, opened the portrait in his hand, looked at Ada and said: "We were ordered to search for a female fugitive, but you refused to interrogate and beat the officers and soldiers. Now I am suspicious. She is the suspect."

"Oh!" A cold light flashed, and a soft sword was pressed against the man's throat. "One more word and your head will fall to the ground."

But the man was not afraid, thinking that Linghu Yuan did not dare to kill him, "You dare to do it. If you kill me, can you escape from Bayu Island?"

"I'm counting to three. If you don't get out of the way, do you dare me? One..." Linghu Yuan began to count.

The man looked at the coldness in his eyes and felt that he really dared to kill him.

But who are these people? Dare to confront the officers and soldiers in broad daylight?

Generally, people who dare to be so arrogant must either have a noble status or be a suspect. If they are the former, it is not worth their lives if they offend the nobles.

He weighed it in his mind and raised his hand to let others get out of the way.

No matter what their status is? Will find out later.

"Hmph!" Linghu Yuan then put away his soft sword.

At this moment, Cheng Qingqing and Li Beimo came over and met the three people who were about to leave.

"Senior Brother, we haven't eaten yet, why are we leaving now?" Cheng Qingqing glanced at the officers and soldiers coldly.

"A swarm of flies came and kept buzzing in the ears, which made people very annoyed." Linghu Yuan said with disgust.

"We have no choice. We come to a remote place like this. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. It is inevitable that we will encounter some bully dog ​​slaves, but we always have to eat.

Just make do with some! "After Cheng Qingqing finished speaking, she walked to their table and sat down.

The man holding the portrait looked at Li Beimo and Cheng Qingqing, feeling the strong pressure emanating from them, and was secretly frightened. These people were definitely not someone they could afford to offend.

"Store boss, why don't you serve the food yet? Here are two more of your best dishes." Cheng Qingqing looked at the shop owner standing next to her and tapped her fingers on the table.

The shop owner looked at her and then at the officers and soldiers. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeves and did not dare to come forward.

"Get out of here!" Li Beimo's cold eyes shot at these officers and soldiers, slightly releasing his pressure.

These officers and soldiers felt a strong sense of oppression suddenly arise. It was as if they were being suppressed by an invisible mountain, making them unable to breathe.

"Thump thump!"

The legs of these officers and soldiers became weak, and they fell to their knees, with cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.

Li Beimo looked at these people with disdain, "You bullies who bully the weak and fear the strong, get out!"

The sense of oppression disappeared immediately, and these officers and soldiers collapsed on the ground, breathing in big mouthfuls of air.

For the first time, they felt the breath of death. This feeling was terrible.

"Let's go!" The man holding the portrait stood up, looked at them again with sinister eyes, and staggered out of the restaurant.

"Elder brother, please sit down! Let's eat before we go on our way." Cheng Qingqing's eyes fell on his hand that was holding Ada tightly.

Only then did Linghu Yuan react and quickly let go of Ada's hand, his face turning red.

After all the officers and soldiers had gone out, the shop owner came forward, pointed to the smashed table, and said a few words to them.

Cheng Qingqing looked at Ada and said, "Tell him that we will compensate for these losses."

Ada said a few words to the shop owner, and then the shop owner went down.

After the commotion just now, most of the diners quietly ran away, and the remaining tables were just busy eating.

The food was served quickly. It was served by the owner of the store himself. There were ten dishes and one soup.

Ada asked him how much money he had, and the shop owner quoted a number.

"He said there were eight taels of silver in total." Ada said.

Cheng Qingqing took out an ingot of ten taels of silver and handed it to the shop owner, "No need to look for it."

Ada translated for him again. The shop owner took the silver and relaxed his frown.

Ada still sat in the back, but did not dare to take off the hijab.

"Eat with confidence! With us here, no one dares to do anything to you?" Cheng Qingqing assured her.

Ada looked at the five tables of people in the room, and then looked out the window. Maybe it was what happened just now, but there was no pedestrian on the street, so she took off her hijab.

Several people ate quietly, but Jide was the only one who was restless and looked at the door frequently, fearing that the officers and soldiers would bring more people to arrest them.

Although Ada advised him not to be too nervous, he still couldn't control himself and ate a bowl of rice in a hurry before going out.

An hour later, until they finished lunch, the officers and soldiers did not show up again, and they were the only people left in the entire restaurant.

The store owner also looked uneasy, looking out the door from time to time, worried that the officers and soldiers would come back to retaliate, and their store would be in trouble again.

But the more worried he became, the more slowly the people at Cheng Qingqing's table ate, as if nothing had happened.

Finally, Cheng Qingqing stood up first, "Let's go!"

The store owner was finally relieved of what he had been worrying about, but these big troublemakers were gone, and the officers and soldiers just now might not let them go.

The four of them came out of the restaurant and saw Jide waiting outside the door with some horses.
