Danger! The heroine of Quick Wear comes from the end of the world
Chapter 121 Night Assassination
After listening to Xiao Linzi's words, Ning Xiao guessed that it was really possible that there were military camps in the Langqi Mountains, but it was not ruled out that King An would arrange the military camps in more remote counties for safety reasons.
But now that I know it, let’s go to Jizhou Mansion and stop by Langqi Mountain.
"Well, you drink some tea and eat some snacks first. We will go back to the restaurant to get ready. We will leave for Jizhou Mansion early tomorrow morning."
When he returned to the restaurant, he still saw those few people sitting in the lobby, like door gods, forcing the restaurant's business to wither. Ning Xiao went up to the second floor without even looking at them.
But when he entered the room, a smile appeared on his lips.
Haha, is it possible that the person living upstairs is of such high status that he even has to check his own luggage?
However, Ning Xiao didn't care. All his good things were in the space, and all he brought with him was just a small baggage. The baggage only contained a few pieces of clothing, and Xiao Linzi kept all his money.
"Master, this..."
Xiao Linzi's words were stopped by Ning Xiao's look.
"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't worry about it. We will leave tomorrow. Don't cause any more trouble."
Although Xiao Linzi was confused, he was obedient and stopped talking. Instead, he went downstairs to find the waiter in the restaurant and served Ning Xiao food.
Ning Xiao didn't go out all afternoon, mainly because there was really nothing to see in Qu County. There were a lot of people on the street, but there were also a lot of beggars, so Ning Xiao had no idea of going shopping.
At midnight, Ning Xiao sat up from the bed.
"Oh, it's really dark and windy, a good time to kill someone! Get up, Xiao Linzi, let's go downstairs and seek the protection of the shopkeeper."
Xiao Linzi was still a little confused. He was sleeping soundly. When he heard the young master's words, he also realized that someone was going to kill someone. Although he was a little panicked, seeing the young master's still relaxed and comfortable look, he calmed down. Liao Xin carried the package and followed Ning Xiao downstairs.
At this time, the few people in the lobby had disappeared. Although the oil lamp was lit, there was no one in the lobby.
"Sir, where are those people? Why are they missing?"
Ning Xiao smiled and said, "They are very busy and are preparing to protect their master!"
Ning Xiao took Xiao Linzi to a table near the door in the lobby on the first floor and sat down. Xiao Linzi went to the kitchen and came out carrying a teapot.
"Sir, are you thirsty? Would you like some tea?"
"Well, pour it on! You also need tea when watching a show."
Although Xiao Linzi was still a little nervous at this time, he was quite stable in front of Ning Xiao, so he sat there with Ning Xiao. However, a quarter of an hour later, nothing happened. Xiao Linzi couldn't help but wonder.
"Sir, have you guessed wrong? Look, it's getting dark now. Why don't you go back to your room and go to sleep! We still need to be on our way tomorrow morning!"
"It doesn't matter. At worst, I won't leave tomorrow. I'll just stay for one more day."
Then Ning Xiao's eyes lit up. said softly.
"Come on, stop moving around, just sit here."
Xiao Linzi naturally didn't know anything, but he still sat there obediently. Sure enough, after a while, there were sounds of fighting upstairs, including women's exclamations and the sounds of weapons clashing.
Hearing these voices, Xiao Linzi's body tensed up and he looked at Ning Xiao with a panicked expression. Speaking of which, he was only a teenager. Although he usually acted calmly, he had never experienced a fight. Even when I encountered robbers when I was going from the small town to the capital last year, I was able to solve the problem with just some stones from Ning Xiao, so naturally there was no bloodshed.
Ning Xiao poured a bowl of tea, took a sip, and put down the tea bowl.
"Don't be nervous. As long as you stay with me, I will naturally keep you safe."
Xiao Linzi also knew that his fear would be seen by the young master, and he was a little embarrassed.
A quarter of an hour later, the movement upstairs slowly disappeared, but there was a sound of footsteps on the street outside. Ning Xiao frowned when he heard it, but he still sat there and did not move.
With a bang, the door of the restaurant was slammed open, and the owner of the restaurant walked in with a group of officers and soldiers. "My lord, those assassins are upstairs right now. You should go there quickly!"
When he finished speaking, he realized that Master Ning Xiao, who was sitting by the door, was also stunned, but then he smiled.
"Your Majesty, it's safe now that you've come downstairs."
Ning Xiao chuckled.
"It's okay. I came down when I heard the noise. After all, it's very dangerous upstairs right now, isn't it?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said nothing, but just went to the backyard.
"Sir, when did you realize something was wrong?"
By this time, Xiao Linzi, who was not stupid at all, finally understood.
"Haha, from the day we moved in, I didn't think about it at that time. At that time, I just thought that some official family was staying on the third floor. But after our luggage was moved, your young master, I had some guesses. Now it seems that I guessed right, this restaurant has changed people from the inside out, even the waiter from before is probably a fake, their main purpose is these assassins who came tonight."
Hearing this, Xiao Linzi had a great enlightenment.
"It seems that they are just trying to get rid of these assassins. Are they trying to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"Hey, Xiao Linzi, you know idioms now, and you even lured snakes out of their holes. But what you said is not bad. I guess that's what they wanted, but we broke in here unintentionally and aroused their suspicion, so we checked Take our luggage."
Ning Xiao was not interested in the purpose of these people. In order not to get involved, he brought Xiao Linzi downstairs. If the two of them still lived on the second floor, there was a real possibility that the assassins would think they were them. people.
Half an hour later, the restaurant manager and the waiter came down from upstairs and smiled when they saw Ning Xiao sitting in the lobby.
"I disturbed the guest's rest. The guest's expenses for the two days will be waived. This can be regarded as an apology to the guest."
Ning Xiao cupped his fists and saluted.
"Well, then we won't disturb the shopkeeper."
Ning Xiao didn't want to talk to them anymore, but took Xiao Linzi directly to the second floor and back to his room.
Looking at Ning Xiao's leaving figure, the waiter said.
"General, will they..."
As he said this, he wiped his neck. The shopkeeper glanced at the waiter speechlessly and slapped him on the head.
"Do you think I'm a fool? Although the young master doesn't seem to have any internal strength, I feel that his martial arts must be very good. If he is an ordinary person, how can he know what will happen tonight in advance and still sit in the lobby? middle?"
