Skilled in managing a house

Chapter 2579 Raising tigers brings trouble

When the acting headmaster and his subordinates saw all the guests coming out, they were stunned again. Especially the men in black were even a little nervous.

The acting headmaster was relatively calm. He looked around and said calmly: "Everyone, I want to find out what happened here..."

"I don't know." The middle-aged man of medium build was the first to say.

"I don't know." "I don't know." "I don't know."...Everyone in the room, for some unknown reason, reached an agreement. Many people said this.

Some remained silent, but shook their heads to express their feelings.

Seeing everyone like this, the acting headmaster couldn't help but frown secretly. Just at this moment, I heard the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, as if someone had come in.

The acting headmaster immediately looked back, and everyone else also looked over. At a glance, the person who came in first was the Great Protector, and behind him was Sun Minghua.

As soon as they saw the great protector arriving, the men in black clothes in the yard immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Because they know how powerful the Great Protector is, these people are definitely no match.

Soon, there were fast footsteps again, and those who rushed in were all people from the black market. Along with the Great Protector and Sun Minghua, there were also Wei Jianlin, Tan Fuyang, and three blue-robed stewards. It can be said that almost all the elites of Laojun Palace have arrived at this moment.

The Great Protector and Sun Minghua came to the acting headmaster first. The Great Protector looked at the corpse on the ground and then at the people coming out of the room. Wei Jianlin, Tan Fuyang and others who came in later also gathered around the Great Protector. The Great Protector finally looked at the Acting Headmaster and whispered, "What happened?"

The Acting Headmaster said in a low voice: "I came over after hearing the news. When I came in, I saw the bodies of our people. I originally planned to ask someone to check the room, but unexpectedly they all came out..."

Having said this, the Acting Headmaster glanced at the middle-aged man of medium height who had just made a move, and then whispered: "That's the man opposite. He spoke very forcefully. Our people couldn't bear to listen, so they shot at him. I don't want to , his poison was cured, he recovered his skills, and directly burned the jujube ruler. I now suspect that their poison may have been cured."

"Oh?" The Great Protector couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this.

Wei Jianlin, Sun Minghua and others couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously glanced at the people in the yard.

"Deng, Deng, Deng..." "Deng, Deng, Deng..."...

Suddenly, footsteps sounded again in the outer courtyard. The footsteps were very chaotic, some were loud and some were quiet. The most important thing is that the number of people seems to be quite large.

The people in the yard looked outside together again. In fact, I can't see the outside anymore, because the yard is so big, and there are so many black market people coming in, and the outermost ones are almost standing at the door.

In other words, people near the door can see people coming.

The people who came over were dressed in different clothes, and it was obvious at a glance that they should be guests coming to the black market. Also, these people are not above thirty.

A man in black quickly ran to the Great Protector, bowed and said, "I am the acting headmaster and Great Protector. The people who come here are all guests from the other two courtyards."

The Great Protector's heart tightened, but then he laughed, clasped his fists and said, "Dear guests and friends, I think the poison in your body has been cured."

"I don't know about others. Anyway, the poison on the four of us has been cured." It was the middle-aged man of medium height who spoke first, with a hint of arrogance in his voice.

"The poison on our bodies has also been cured." "The poison on our bodies has also been cured." "The poison on our bodies has also been cured." ... Almost everyone said this, whether in the yard or outside the yard.

The Great Protector could tell that the tone of many people was quite unkind.

He knew in his heart that he had to save money on the food allocation for these few days. After all, there was not much. There are so many guests in Laojun's palace. If they all take care of food, the Great Protector can't take care of them, so I can only give them a bite to eat, as long as they don't starve to death.

"Then I would like to congratulate you all first... But I think that if you can detoxify together, someone must give you the antidote... The person who gives you the antidote, if nothing else, must be the one who poisoned... "The Great Protector said gently.

"We don't know who sent the antidote. But it would be great if it could detoxify us. Otherwise, I'm afraid we will have to starve to death here before the poison takes hold." The middle-aged man of medium height said solemnly.

This sentence seemed to speak to the hearts of all the guests.

Someone immediately said, "Isn't it? If we didn't have this antidote, I'm afraid we would have starved to death before the poison took its toll." "It's just been porridge and pickles for the past two days, and there aren't even a few grains of rice in the porridge. Even an iron-clad man can't keep up." "Now I'm worried about my heart." "Fortunately, I've been detoxified. Otherwise, I might have really starved to death." "The feeling of starvation is really uncomfortable... "...

All the guests expressed their dissatisfaction with each other. Even some people's tone was full of gunpowder, and they wanted to fight the black market people on the spot.

After hearing what these people said, the Great Protector couldn't help but regret secretly. If he had known that something like this would happen, he might as well have given the order directly to kill these people. It was simply raising a tiger's head.

But now is not the time to regret. He must settle the dispute, otherwise, there will be a big mess. With the men and horses in the black market, if we really fight with these people, it is really hard to say what the chances of winning are. The Great Protector knew clearly that even if he could kill these people, he would probably lose miserably.

His opponent is watching from the dark, probably hoping that the two sides will fight on the spot and both sides will suffer losses.

When the voices of these people slowly calmed down, the Great Protector said calmly: "I know how you feel, so I hope you can understand the difficulties of our black market. To be honest, the granary on the mountain was destroyed the night we were poisoned. Being burned, our people don’t have enough to eat now. Even so, our black market did not say that we should simply abandon you all for our own sake. Let’s think about it from another angle. If our identities were reversed, in this crisis situation , what will you do?”

"This..." The middle-aged man of medium height groaned, and then he raised his fist towards the Great Protector and said, "So that's the case, and we didn't know the truth before... I've offended you so much, please don't take it off..."

"That's it." "That's right..." "Looking at it this way, the black market can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous person." "That's right."...Many people nodded, thinking that the black market was quite righteous. If this kind of thing happened to them, some people would even directly kill all these people who wasted food, how could they wait for them to detoxify.

The Great Protector immediately struck the iron while the iron was hot and said: "Your poison must have been cured by the person who poisoned you. The reason why they did this is very simple. They want us to fight on the spot, fight to the death, and both lose. In this way, they will We can reap the benefits. At that time, I'm afraid we will all be killed by them."
