Jinyiwei work report

Song Yingbai was taken aback, stared at Ning Caichen intently, and secretly turned his left arm to prepare for firing the sleeve arrow.

Li Zhen was also ready to use weapons at any time.

Xu Jing was the most excited, looking at Ning Caichen and the centipede viciously. The death of his boss Zuo Qianhu was vivid in his memory. He remembered it very clearly. It was this scholar and Fu Qingfeng who used the centipede to kill them all. .

That's right, the ten-year-old boy in front of him suddenly appeared in front of him and Zuo Qianhu, turning into a monster as big as a pillar, wantonly killing their Dongchang people.

It's really a narrow road to the enemy, there is no door to hell, you broke in, Xu Jing was so excited, he picked up the knife uncontrollably, and wanted to go up to find them and desperately.

"What are you doing?" Mao Congxian pressed his shoulder, "Do you know them?"

Xu Jing said viciously: "That child is a monster, he was the one who killed Zuo Qianhu."

When Pi Shaotang heard this, he stood up to cooperate with Mao Congxian, and sat down Xu Jing, "Then you can't act rashly!"

Mao Congxian picked up the teacup on the table and handed it to him, "Drink some water and calm down."

Xu Jing fended off the tea, but his head was indeed a little more sober than before. The other party was a centipede spirit. He had seen it before. In this small inn, it is true that they should not act rashly, and they still have tasks to do.

However, it must not be let go.

Pi Shaotang knew about the accident in escorting Fu Tianchou, but he had always been skeptical, thinking that Cao Xiaochuan's subordinates made up the reason because they didn't guard the prisoner. Looking at Xu Jing's reaction now, it seems that the centipede spirit is real.

He couldn't help squinting his eyes, and took a closer look at the centipede Jing in front of him.

On the other side, Ning Caichen was happy because he found this inn, and looked around with a smile, but all the people in the room had solemn expressions, and they were all silent and silent, and some even stared at him unkindly. .

He smiled awkwardly and bowed, "Hello everyone, hello everyone, it's fate to be here, haha."

Wu Gong next to him naughtily picked his nose, "Father, why do you nod and bow when you see everyone?"

Ning Caichen said: "This is called politeness, you should learn it."

Wu Gong obviously didn't intend to learn, and ran to the table a few steps, "I'm hungry, I want to eat."

Ning Caichen smiled awkwardly at shopkeeper Wu, put the bookcase on the ground, sat next to Wu Gong, and said, "I really can't help you. I know how to eat every day. I can't get enough of it in my pocket." The face is clean."

After finishing speaking, he found that he was the only one talking in the lobby, and everyone else was staring at them. He couldn't help but wonder, what's going on with everyone?

When he cooperated with Fu Qingfeng in robbing the prisoner, he was terrified from the moment he was discovered by the people from Dongchang. He even passed out once during the period, and then ran for his life. clean.

Song Yingbai and the others were wearing human skin masks at the time, so Ning Caichen probably never saw them at all.

So at this moment, he looked around in confusion, but found nothing unusual, wondering why someone would stare at him.

Seeing that Ning Caichen found out, everyone turned their eyes away and ate their own meals.

Song Yingbai ate a few mouthfuls of the remaining wontons, and went upstairs with Li Zhen, pretending to be calm, but as soon as he got to his room, he couldn't help saying: "Ning Caichen and that monster Why did you come here? You stabbed me last time, and you have shrunk to the length of your forearm, why did you grow up and become a human again?"

"It can only be said that the knife was not fatal. The talismans I melted on the knife at the time were drawn by the Taoist priests of the Qing Palace I saw in the palace, and they were drawn like gourds. Growing up must be the result of Ning Caichen's feeding."

"..." Song Yingbai had a clear understanding of the centipede essence, "It can eat people. And there is no fleece-flower essence here. If it is poisoned, it will be too dangerous."

This said, it reminded Li Zhen that he seemed to have a different feeling towards him after being saved by Song Yingbai...

Seeing Li Zhen's lost look, Song Yingbai asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Li Zhen came back to his senses, "It's nothing. I was poisoned last time to get Fu Tianchou out of its mouth. This time, it won't happen. I'm more concerned. Ning Caichen brought the centipede What are you doing here?"

"Yeah, what is their purpose. By the way, I think Xu Jing hates them to the bone, and he will probably do it."

"The men and women who came here last night haven't figured out their identities yet. Here comes another monster." Li Zhen sighed deeply, "The situation is getting more and more complicated."

The more people in the inn, the more obstacles there will be, and each has his own purpose. Even if you are not hostile to others, there is no guarantee that the other party will not harm Chi Yu when they act.

This task is really difficult.

After talking for a while, they decided to sit in the lobby. The more complicated the situation was, the more information they had to collect and stay in their hut, so they would be easily killed without anyone noticing.

-

In Pi Shaotang's room, Xu Jing said with a determined look: "Elder-in-law, get rid of that monster sooner or later. The sooner you do it, the better. Don't hesitate. Before they arrive in the store, you can't take precautions." Shen, he finished them in one fell swoop. Otherwise, I think it will stutter us tonight. I saw him clearly last time, swallowing Zuo Qianhu, and chasing Fu Tianchou, and wanted to live Chewed him. The dozen or so of us have to be his dinner."

If you don't try to get rid of the demon, you may be turned into a night snack for monsters. Of course Pi Shaotang doesn't want to die, "Could it be that you have already figured out a way?"

Xu Jing is best at using drugs, and he can control the dosage very accurately. "That scholar is a piece of trash, and he can be dealt with with a single knife. As for that child-like centipede spirit, I don't plan to fight recklessly. I have a few darts on hand. Each one can instantly paralyze a tiger, even paralyze a person, shoot all the brains at it, if you don't believe it, it will turn it over, and then take advantage of its confusion, cut off the monster's head."

Pi Shaotang pondered for a while, and felt that it was feasible, "Also, it should be safe for you to sneak attack it from the dark."

Mao Congxian picked at the side, "The idea is not wrong, but you can't hang upside down on their eaves in broad daylight to prepare for a surprise attack. No matter how good you are, you have to find a secluded place to attack. How can you lure that monster out?"

When Xu Jing heard this, he laughed, "It depends on your Dandan's ability."

It was only then that Mao Congxian realized that Xu Jing was planning to let his Dandan lure the centipede essence out, "Boss, this is too dangerous."

Pi Shaotang comforted him: "If you don't get rid of this monster, we will be eaten by him this time. Go ahead and be careful."

Mao Congxian had no choice but to agree, and followed Xu Jing back to his room to pick up the darts.

-

In Ning Caichen's room.

He took a heavy thing wrapped in red cloth from the book box, raised his head and said to Wu Gong, "I'm going out to talk to the shopkeeper, don't move around. Hey, I haven't finished talking, don't open the window, there is a lot of wind and sand outside." , Blowing dust all over the house, how can you tell Xiaoer to clean up. Also, no one is allowed to open the door, I see those people downstairs, some of them have vicious faces, it's better not to deal with them."

Wu Gong swung his legs boredly, "Father, I don't eat people anymore, why don't you let me talk to others alone?"

The mention of cannibalism brought Ning Caichen back to the previous nightmare, and he shivered, "You are fine now, keep it up, say it again, don't move around, I'll go out for a while." After speaking, open the The door got out, and before closing the door, he glared at Wu Gong again as a warning, and then closed the door.

He originally wanted to lock it, but when he thought about locking it, if he really wanted to get out, the lock was just a decoration, so it was better to give him some trust, so he just closed the door.

When Ning Caichen left, Wu Gong rolled on the kang in boredom. Since he was beaten into a baby state, he only felt that what happened before, although he had an impression, was like a distant dream. As he grew up, Ning Caichen The minister nagged him every day that he was not allowed to do this, and he was not allowed to do that. The guards were so strict that he couldn't eat people anymore.

Besides, he doesn't have to eat people. He used to eat people just to become more beautiful and more like human beings. Besides, even if he eats, he eats little saints and people with official status, and he doesn't eat common people.

Now that he has a human body and is growing up gradually, there is no need to eat people anymore, but Ning Caichen still feels as if he is facing an enemy every time he sees him with other people.

Suddenly, he heard the door creak, and a small monkey the size of a palm poked its head in, scratched its ears, and looked at him very cutely.

Wu Gong's eyes lit up, and he sat up, "Come here, come here, I have peanuts here." Seeing the hazelnuts on the table, he just wanted to get up to get them, when the monkey jumped onto the table and peeled one by himself. Peanuts start to eat.

It also wears a dress, not to mention how funny and cute.

Wu Gong came to the table with great interest, and only wanted to touch the shiny fur of the little monkey, but he didn't expect the monkey to jump from the table to the Kang, opened the window, and jumped out.

Wu Gong wanted to touch it but couldn't, so he didn't care to let the monkey go, so he jumped down.

The window was opened at the back of the house, so Wu Gong jumped to the back of the inn's secluded house, in the vast desert, without even a shadow of a person.

But Xu Jing hid at the corner of the inn, and saw Centipede Jing jumping down with Dandan, took out five darts soaked in anesthetic, put them on the launching tool, and aimed at Centipede Jing.

Die you!Zuo Qianhu's spirit in heaven can rest.

But at the moment when he was about to let go of his hand and release the dart, Dandan saw that he was about to be caught by the centipede, so he climbed the wall in a panic and ran to the eaves.

Not to be outdone, the centipede spirit followed it, sticking its limbs to the wall, and climbed up just like that.

Naturally, Xu Jing would not let go of this great opportunity, so he hurriedly came out from the corner and stood behind Centipede Jing, facing him who was climbing the wall like a gecko, he saw the right moment and loosened his fingers.

"Who is so naughty?" Unexpectedly, someone complained from behind the window of a room.

At this time, the centipede spirit heard the movement, and jumped up in fright.

At the same time, Xu Jing's anesthesia darts shot out, and two of them pierced through the window paper and shot into the window, and a vague figure fell backwards inside.

Wu Gong heard a noise behind him, but chasing the monkey was more important, so he didn't look back, and climbed up to the roof with his hands and feet and disappeared.

Xu Jing gritted his teeth in hatred, but the chance was gone, he retrieved the three darts that had been shot at the wall, and walked back angrily.

-

"Shopkeeper, is it convenient to talk?" Ning Caichen came to the shopkeeper's room at the end of the first floor, knocked on the door, and said with a "flattering" smile: "I want to talk to you."

Wu Ning blinked, and let Ning Caichen in, "Guest officer, come in quickly, what's the matter?"

Wu Ning asked Ning Caichen to sit down. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Ning Caichen took out the red cloth bag in his arms and put it on the table, and looked at the shopkeeper with a false smile, "Take a look."

Wu Ning was puzzled, opened the bag, and saw five ingots of white silver inside, "This is... what does the guest officer mean?"

Ning Caichen was a little shy, "To be honest, I want to leave the customs..."

He really wanted to leave the customs and go to a place beyond the control of the court. It was not the day he yearned for going outside. He really couldn't live within the jurisdiction of the court.

He got involved in Fu Qingfeng's robbery last year. Although he escaped at that time, people have been looking for him since then, and he has been designated as a robber. The description in the wanted list is almost the same as that of himself.

I am worried all day long for fear of being reported to the government.

This is still the first, and the second is that although Wu Gong doesn't eat people now, he grows too fast, almost changing his appearance every day. He eats more and grows faster. He can't stay in one place for a long time. Move and flee.

The only way he can think of to get peace is to leave the customs. When he goes outside, no one recognizes them, and the population is sparse, so he can be much better.

But Longmen Pass was guarded by garrisons, so it was not so easy to get out. After some inquiries, someone said that there was an inn near Longmen Pass, and Wu Ning, the shopkeeper, could transport people out, that's why he came here all the way.

"Do you think I can help you get out?" Wu Ning shook his head like a wave, "This is a serious crime of beheading, don't hurt me, take back the money, I can't do this kind of thing, even thinking about it I don't even think about it."

Ning Caichen said painfully: "Just show kindness and do me a favor."

"Help, I don't want my head? Let's go." Wu Ning stuffed the money back to him, pushed his shoulder, and rushed out.

"It's fine if you don't send me out of the customs. You can introduce someone who can get out of the customs. You open an inn in the border gate. It's impossible not to know the way to get out of the customs. Are you authentic?"

"I see that you have a child, and you don't have the same knowledge as you. If you talk about it again, I will let the garrison arrest you." The shopkeeper Wu pushed the man out, closed the door, and shook his head helplessly thinking, what's the matter? Hey, a human wants to take a monster out of customs?

As soon as they entered the door, he could see that the child was not a human being, but he thought they were looking for food, did they just want to get out?

I don't care about him.

Wu Ning waited for a while to make sure that Ning Caichen was gone, then opened the door and walked out. He planned to check the situation in the lobby. There are a bunch of vicious guys in this room, so we can't be careful.

The lobby was full of people sitting there, everyone seemed to be drinking tea, but in reality they cast their eyes at random and muttered something from time to time, including the two quacks he brought yesterday who were wearing bamboo hats, who would drink tea without wearing bamboo hats Take it off, I am afraid that others will not know that they are mysterious.

He turned around but didn't see the accountant behind the counter, so he asked the fat guy, "Where's sir?"

The fat man pointed upstairs, "Sir, he thought the first floor was noisy, so he went upstairs to find an empty guest room to sleep."

Alas, he is in a daze all day long, taking time to sleep in, his life is really miserable, and there are three people under his command, one bad debtor and two stupid buddies.Wu Ning was muttering in his heart, went upstairs to look for the accountant, saw the door of a guest room was ajar, opened the door and said: "You always said that you can't sleep well at night, I gave you medicine to drink..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Mr. Accountant lying on the ground straight, his face was bruised, he rushed to him and hugged him, "Hey, old Xu, wake up."

But the other party's body was cold, Wu Ning bent down to listen to his heartbeat unwillingly, naturally he didn't hear anything, after all dead people don't have a heartbeat.

Looking at the cashier's body again, there are two darts stuck on it, and two holes are broken in the window paper. It is obvious that the deadly darts were shot from here.

"The shopkeeper..." At this time, the fat guy poked his head at the door, "Have you found Mr.?" After seeing clearly that the accountant was lying on the ground, he hurried in, "What's wrong with him? Dead, dead?"

"These guys who live in the store did it!" Wu Ning gritted his teeth.

The fat guy was startled, took a few steps back, and leaned against the wall, "What, what should I do? Why was the accountant killed?"

There is no government office here, only the officers and soldiers stationed there, but why would the officers and soldiers care about the murder in your store? Besides, who would admit that they are the murderers downstairs?

"Either it was an accident, or he saw or heard something and was silenced." Wu Ning said: "You don't want to say anything, only you and I know about this matter. Alright, go down and entertain guests, don't cause a commotion. "

"Oh, good, good!" The fat man replied dully, and went out.

Wu Ning closed the door and looked at the accountant's body. Old Xu had been with him for so many years and had been managing accounts for him. Even though he was in poor health and dozed off all the time, he never thought of replacing him. He was almost like a family member. .

He had a sore nose, "You were a fool when you were alive, and you died a fool no matter how you died. But it doesn't matter, I will definitely avenge you."

-

Li Zhen felt that the atmosphere in the store was different. I couldn't tell what was wrong, but there was something strange about it.

Song Yingbai is not as talented as he is, and he doesn't have much feeling. He is now focusing on Ning Caichen and Centipede Jing. After all, Centipede Jing has become vicious, and they have to explain it here.

However, Ning Caichen was not eaten by the centipede, does it mean that he can check and balance him?

The Dongchang side is also not good, Xu Jing will definitely tell Pi Shaotang about the danger of the centipede essence, have Pi Shaotang and the others acted?

Song Yingbai frowned, the atmosphere was really depressing.

"I've said it all. If you're not allowed to go out, you still go out." Ning Caichen complained as he went downstairs, "If you don't listen to me again, I won't care about you."

Centipede Jing walked beside Ning Caichen, with an expression that showed that the boss was not happy, and pouted, but he did not act excessively, and honestly accompanied Ning Caichen downstairs.

After Ning Caichen sat down, he was still scolding the centipede, and it couldn't be called scolding, it should be called earnest teaching, and the whole hall could only hear him nagging.

"It's really training my son." Song Yingbai whispered to Li Zhen: "When the two of them first entered the door, that monster called him father."

Li Zhen said: "I really didn't expect that the two of them could mix together, and Ning Caichen could subdue him."

"This is called one thing down one thing."

Everyone pretended to be something in their hearts, and to be honest, they didn't have much appetite to eat, but no, how could they think if they didn't eat, and how would they deal with the enemy.

Song Yingbai ordered steamed buns, mutton in sour soup, and a pot of hot wine for this table. When the dishes were all served, he moved chopsticks with Li Zhen and began to eat.

The drinks and dishes from other tables were also served one after another, but there were so many people in the East Factory, some tables only served wine and side dishes, and had to wait for the main dishes.

Because Xu Jing couldn't clean up the centipede in the afternoon, Pi Shaotang didn't like him, so he didn't even talk to him.

Mao Congxian could have chatted with Xu Jing, but he proposed to use Dandan as a bait, but the assassination failed.

Fortunately, Dandan ran fast, otherwise he was eaten by the centipede essence, who cares, and regretted listening to him, so he didn't chat with him all afternoon.

Losers have no human rights, who made Xu Jing fail, he was left out in the cold, so he could only endure it.

"Father, your bowl looks better than mine, I want to eat yours." Wu Gong glanced into Ning Caichen's bowl.

Ning Caichen picked up the bowl and turned his back, "Don't be so old-fashioned. I saw that my bowl was delicious, but in the end you ate what was in my bowl, and you still eat what was in your bowl."

Xiao Shaozi looked at Wu Gong, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, this frizzy child really looked like himself back then.

The self back then... He had no father or mother since he was a child, and he fought bravely all day long. Once, he was beaten to the side of the road and fell to the side of the road. him.

Master Yu Yuxuan was wronged and died. The capital is as solid as an iron barrel, and it is impossible to rob the prison. However, his two children were sent to Longmen Pass, and only a few officials escorted them. He believed that he could rescue them.

As for the person in this store who claims to be an official of the Criminal Department, it is indeed a concern, but he is willing to go out and is not afraid of death.

At this time, his wine and dishes were served, and he was just about to drink after pouring the wine.

"Don't drink, there's poison in the wine—" Shopkeeper Wu ran out of the kitchen in a panic, followed by a kitchen clerk with blood on his face, "Someone knocked out the kitchen clerk and put poison in the wine .”

puff--

The room was filled with the sound of spitting out wine, but Song Yingbai and Li Zhen both had a few sips, and their expressions changed at this moment.

Although according to the time of drinking, if the pot was poisonous, they would have died of the poison, but just to be on the safe side, they pressed their throats sideways and spit out the wine as much as possible.

Wu Ning said to the guy whose face was covered in blood, who looked like he was being attacked: "Look, who beat you?"

"I... I didn't see it, that man hit me from behind, and I fell down..."

Pi Shaotang stood up and said with a smile: "It's just that someone beat up the shopkeeper, how do you know someone poisoned the wine?"

"You, I believe it. You are worthy of being members of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. This is going to kill people, and you have to ask the bottom line." Wu Ning said: "After someone knocked him out, he dragged him to the back of the water tank and hid it. The two front desk clerks were the two of them, a fat man and a skinny man. They didn't see anyone when they entered the kitchen. They thought the kitchen clerk had gone out to relieve himself, so they brought the flagon directly.

As a result, I turned around and found this fella who was knocked out. I also found white powder scattered on the side of the table where the flagon was placed. I tried it with silver, and it was poison!So, hurry up, dump it all, someone is going to kill someone. "

Originally, the atmosphere in this room was very depressing, but now someone wants to poison and kill people, and the sword is on the verge of breaking out.

Xiao Shaozi opened the lid of his wine pot, saw poison on the edge of the pot, his eyes were hardened, he got up and said, "If you want to kill me, Xiao, just come straight, why use these methods!"

Someone has come forward and admitted to being a victim, so who is the perpetrator?Song Yingbai was sweating, the development of the matter was very bad, they all had a violent temper with swords and swords in their hands, if there was a dispute, bloody cases would be created every minute.

Pi Shaotang had the most people under his command, and he had a dispute with Xiao Shaozi at the beginning, and now Xiao Shaozi stared at them again, so he had to respond: "Xiao Shaoxia, you also heard from the shopkeeper that the drinks are served by the waiter. Yes, they don't know, this jug of wine may not be for you."

"Hmph, I've been drinking cold wine, and I ordered cold wine just now. Has anyone ordered cold wine? No, so if you know that I drink cold wine, just poison the cold wine." Xiao Shaozi said.

Xu Jing said disdainfully: "What's the matter, are you some great person? Do you need someone to take your life?"

I don't know who from Dongchang said, "Maybe they stole someone's wife."

"What did you say?!" Xiao Shaozi stepped on the table with the jug in his hand, jumped to the other side's table, grabbed him, stuffed the spout of the jug into his mouth and poured it fiercely.

The person next to him came to his senses and drew his knife to cut Xiao Shaozi, who then spit out the poisonous wine from his mouth with a wow.

Xu Jing had long been displeased with Xiao Shaozi, and he was so angry that he drew out his sword and was about to start a battle. As soon as he made a move, all his subordinates drew their swords in unison, and the cold light of swords in the store shone for a while.

Song Yingbai held his breath and leaned aside to watch the excitement. In fact, watching the excitement is not quite accurate. This kind of bloody excitement is not fun at all.

Looking again, I saw that Ning Caichen and Wu Gong had already hid under the table, and Wu Gong was still eating noodles with a bowl.

Suddenly, he saw Mao's little monkey protruding from Xian's sleeve, his eyes lit up, he put down the bowl, and got out from under the table, "Little monkey—" went straight to Mao Congxian.

When Mao Congxian saw the man-eating monster running towards him, he was so frightened that he hid back, but when Pi Shaotang saw the centipede coming towards him, he immediately felt that Xiao Shaozi in front of him was nothing.

Xiao Shaozi saw that Wu Gong was innocent, he shouldn't use force here, what if he hurt the child, "Let's go outside and fight."

"Whoever goes outside with you, hit here." Xu Jing said, just chopped you and the centipede fine.

Xiao Shaozi put away the knife when he heard the words, went back to sit down at his desk, "Forget it if you don't go outside, shopkeeper, bring a jug of non-poisonous wine."

Mao Congxian covered Dandan tightly, and said to Ning Caichen: "Take care of your children, don't come with you." After finishing talking, he didn't eat, and went upstairs.

Pi Shaotang and the others sat down, their expressions were several times uglier than before.

At this time, Li Zhen noticed a trace of disappointment on Wu Ning's face. Although it was only for a moment, he still caught it.

What is he disappointed with?He was disappointed that everyone didn't get along?

What good is it good for him if everyone is in a fight?

"Come back quickly! Don't you want to eat noodles?" Ning Caichen greeted Wu Gong like an old woman, and called him back, "You are not allowed to chase other people's monkeys, do you hear me?"

With a sour face, Wu Gong ate the noodles silently.

Except for the sound of Wu Gong sucking noodles, the lobby was deadly silent.

There was a sudden bang bang bang on the door, breaking the silence. The sound came so suddenly that someone instinctively grabbed the knife.

"Hey, come here, stop knocking, the door is not strong anymore."

Wu Ning went to the door with a smile on his face, but he was not happy at all, and he didn't fight, which was really disappointing.

Old Xu asked someone to kill him, and he will definitely take revenge.

Since we can't find out who killed it, then just get rid of all the outsiders in the store.

He opened the door with a bright smile, "Welcome, welcome—"

Song Yingbai saw that outside the wide open door stood three travel-worn officials and two children in shackles, a boy and a girl, both in their early ten years.

As for the two officials, he had met Li Zhen, and with Pan Yuetai's information, needless to say, this man and woman were Yu Yuxuan's orphans.

I get it, no wonder the people from Dongchang are waiting here, so they are waiting for these two children.

When Pi Shaotang saw the five people outside the door, he finally felt better, very good, very good, and arrived as scheduled.

You two little bastards will soon send you to meet your dead father.

When Xiao Shaozi saw them, he choked for breath, but soon returned to normal, there were only three tolerances, and he was bound to win.

Li Zhen hooked his hands towards Song Yingbai, and when he leaned his ear close, he whispered in his ear: "Be careful of Wu Ning, I think he directed and acted the poisonous wine just now."

Song Yingbai raised his forehead, this inn is a warehouse full of explosives, which is already flammable and explosive, Wu Ning even fanned the flames and wanted to explode.

I don't know how many people can get out of this inn alive.

Li Zhen saw that he was worried, patted the back of his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."
