There are many failures in the country

Walking around the street with 10 taels in hand is really eye-catching.Being peeped along the way, like looking at a monster, Shen Ling had to quicken his pace and almost ran back to the inn.

He pushed open the door expectantly, but there was still no sign of Yue Xingfeng, and he was even more worried.

If it was those people, they could stab Yue Xingfeng a bloody hole in the capital where law and order is strict, why can't they stab him again in Baling where dragons and snakes are mixed together?He was fine in the capital before, and he was protected by Duke Zhao's mansion. If he reveals his identity now, I'm afraid the people in Langfenglou will not let him go.

If, he died... This thought was like a huge boulder, hitting Shen Ling hard on the top of his head.He seems to be able to imagine the scene of walking out of Baling alone holding the Xuanqing Tianji map, and then being chased and killed by bandits from all walks of life.

Thinking of this, Shen Ling couldn't help shivering. It's not okay for Yue Xingfeng to die secretly. It's better to go out to find out the news. Anyway, he said that no one would dare to snatch the things bought in Langfenglou.

Shen Ling hid the red sandalwood box under the soft couch, covered it with a rag, changed into a low-key coarse cloth, and was about to open the door to go out, when a black figure approached outside the door, and knocked on the door.

"Are you back?" Shen Ling could only think of Yue Xingfeng, and she was overjoyed, so she opened the door, "You bastard ran to..."

"Master Xi, are you... taking a break?" Dressed in white Shu brocade, it was Shizhou.

"Master Shi." Shen Ling hurriedly hid her anger, and put on a well-educated smile, "What's the matter?"

Shizhou carefully looked at Shen Ling's rough clothes: "Young Master Xi, your clothes are really unique."

Shen Ling suddenly remembered that she was wearing a coarse cloth, and said with a dry smile: "It's getting late, I can't sleep, and I want to go out for a walk. You know, after spending some money in Langfeng Tower, you should keep a low profile after all."

Shi Zhou smiled gently: "I understand." He looked into the room, "That servant of yours hasn't come back yet?"

Shen Ling was taken aback, and quickly responded: "Didn't he eat bad food, and now he's going to the latrine again. Uh, I don't know why Mr. Shi came to visit late at night, why?"

"Oh, I almost forgot." Shi Zhou took out a bloodstone seal from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Ling, "Young Master Xi left something in a hurry, and I was worried about the importance of this thing, so I didn't dare to leave it to others, so I personally Come here, do you want to disturb me?"

"Don't bother, this... I really want to thank you, young master." Shen Ling took the seal, his scalp was dripping with sweat, and he thought that if he lost this thing, the Xi family of Xuzhou would definitely find Yue Xingfeng to settle the score.

Shizhou smiled faintly, and he didn't intend to leave, his eyes dropped: "I don't know how Mr. Xi will thank me?"

Shen Ling raised his eyebrows, obviously embarrassing. He hoped that Shizhou would be considerate, but after smiling at each other for a long time, this person did not show any signs of understanding.

Shizhou could see the embarrassment on his face, but said: "I just want to ask for a glass of wine."

Shen Ling was in trouble. His current status was such that strangers were not allowed to enter, but the current situation was unlikely to drive him out.I hope Shizhou is just drinking a glass of wine, Shen Ling has no choice but to step aside: "Master Shi, please."

The shopkeeper of the inn learned that Langfenglou Shizhou had come, and personally delivered the centuries-old wine in the store, and smiled without saying a word.

Shen Ling held the wine glass and hesitated, thinking silently in her heart: "Why don't you get out, why don't you get out..."

Shi Zhou said with a smile: "Young Master Xi doesn't seem to welcome me, so I'll have a drink and then leave."

Hearing that he took the initiative to leave, Shen Ling was overjoyed, and put his excitement into words: "I was just worried about the body of the servant, but I didn't want to be misunderstood by Mr. Shi. It's not early, and Mr. Shi is also busy One day, I really should rest earlier. These three cups, I will treat you as Xi Ze." After speaking, Shen Ling gulped down the wine neatly.

A gust of hot air rose from his stomach and rushed to his forehead, making Shen Ling dizzy for a while, but quickly dissipated.

Shen Ling looked down at the bottom of the cup, and said to herself that she had a pretty good capacity for alcohol, what kind of wine is this century-old wine.

"Mr. Xi, you really have a good capacity for drinking. Even if you get drunk with a glass of old wine from Yueyang Inn, you can still be so clear, I admire you!" Shizhou said, and he also drank a glass of wine, but his expression remained the same.

"In my opinion, Mr. Shi is the big one." Shen Ling drank another glass of wine, this time he didn't feel dizzy much, and the burning sensation in his throat surpassed everything else.

With a smile on his face, Shizhou drank the second cup lightly, but remained motionless.

Shen Ling secretly admired this person, and although the wine was strong, it tasted very good, especially the refreshing after the throat was burned, making people reluctant to stop drinking.

So, another cup.
