Nightmare Attack

"No one?" Fatty leaned against the crack of the door and looked in. Because the doors and windows were closed, the room was rather dark, and he could only see the outline of some mold lakes. "This money shopkeeper runs fast."

In a hurry, the two of them were about to leave when a person hurriedly ran up behind him. The person had a rag on his shoulder and a cloth bag in his hand. Without even looking at the two of them in Jiangcheng, he raised his hand and knocked on the door of the antique shop. Door.

The knock on the door rang continuously, but there was still no sound from inside. The fat man kindly told him: "Brother, stop knocking, the shopkeeper Qian is not here."

"Not here?" The man dressed like a buddy scratched his oily hair, blinked his eyes in confusion, "No, I saw shopkeeper Qian just now, he ordered a large amount of food from our shopkeeper, and said I’ll send it to him after I’m done, why... why did the person disappear in the blink of an eye?”

"Eat?"

"That's right." The man opened the cloth bag naturally and showed it to Fatty Jiangcheng. The cloth bag was full of food, including steamed buns, baked naan, and a large piece of sticky cake wrapped in lotus leaves. It must be a normal meal. It doesn't take so much, and besides, there are only staple foods and no dishes here. Jiangcheng thought that these should be prepared by the shopkeeper for the road, and he planned to run away and leave Luo'an City.

Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng smiled and signaled to the buddy to keep the things, "Treasurer Qian is out temporarily, and I came to look for him too. You put the things here, and I will hand them over to him when he comes back."

"You?" The man was a little suspicious, "Who are you?"

"I'm a friend of Shopkeeper Qian, and Shopkeeper Qian asked me to come here."

Most of the waiters had practiced the skills of knowing people. The waiters looked up and down at Jiangcheng. Although the other party was dressed strangely, his calm demeanor was comparable to that of the sons of the big clans in the city. There is absolutely no reason for people like him to lie to such a small person.

"Then please leave to this young master." The clerk said very politely to Jiang Cheng, and then handed a large bag of food to the fat man, and told him, "Remember, don't put the food on the ground, the treasurer Qian is a decent person."

After receiving the food, the fat man came to his senses. It seemed that the other party regarded him as the doctor's attendant. The doctor was the son of a big family, and he was the lackey around him. But the fat man couldn't find any reason to be dissatisfied. After all, he really All the way here is holding the doctor's thigh.

After watching the buddy go away, Jiang Cheng took the fat man around, and finally came to the back door of the antique shop. Behind it was an unremarkable alley, separated by a dilapidated wall. Jiang Cheng saw no one around. He jumped up, grabbed the edge of the wall with his hands, and fell in after a few strokes.

The fat man was carrying a large bag of food, and his movements were no more procrastinating than Jiang Cheng's. After landing, he looked around. There was a courtyard inside, not too big, but the arrangement was messy. The back door was ajar and unlocked. After walking a few steps, I saw a sneaky figure hiding behind the main entrance, deliberately lowered his body, pouted his buttocks, and looked out through the gap.

Who else could it be if it wasn't the money shopkeeper?

Jiang Cheng thought it was funny, so he quietly walked behind Shopkeeper Qian, stretched out his hand and patted Shopkeeper Qian's shoulder lightly, which immediately scared Shopkeeper Qian into jumping up on the spot.

"Treasurer Qian, are you here to see if we're leaving?" Jiang Cheng asked with a smile on his face, showing his signature expression.

Seeing Jiang Cheng suddenly appear in front of him, Shopkeeper Qian's fleshy face was all tangled together, but even so, he still had the courage to cheer himself up, "You... how did you get in?"

"Let me tell you, if you dare to act recklessly, I will... I will call someone!" Shopkeeper Qian leaned against the door, trembling all over, with cold sweat dripping down his forehead. Nervous, "The streets outside are full of officers and soldiers!"

"You yell, even if you yell out your throat, no one will pay attention to you!"

Fatty's mouth twitched, and such a sentence came out suddenly, and all of a sudden, Shopkeeper Qian looked at Fatty in the wrong way. It seemed that this person was more terrifying than Jiang Cheng.

But Jiangcheng heard the implication from what shopkeeper Qian said. The information he instilled into shopkeeper Qian was that they came from the Hou's mansion, and Zhennan Hou's mansion is the sky of Luo'an City. He used officers and soldiers to scare the people of Zhennanhou's mansion, right? Too overwhelmed?

Seeing that Jiang Cheng, the leader, hesitated, the shopkeeper Qian, who was terrified at first, seemed to have grasped the other party's handle, and threatened viciously: "How? Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, no one is allowed to mention the past, I will pretend it never happened."

Fatty was dumbfounded by this sentence, he didn't understand why the treasurer Qian would suddenly link them with the remnants of the previous dynasty, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm talking nonsense?" Shopkeeper Qian sneered, staring at Jiang Cheng's face, "A few days ago you came here to trick me, borrowing the identity of the Hou Mansion, just to find out what happened near Chunshen Lake huh, so as to infer the time of the next big ebb tide, hehe, I’m afraid you still don’t know. I didn't clearly show my identity, but I can recognize the plaque on the waist of the leading man, the white jade waist plaque, the white jade waist plaque that can open the gate of Luo'an City at night, who else in the entire Luo'an City except the big shots in the Hou's mansion Eligible to hold?"

Jiang Cheng probably understood the ins and outs of the matter, nodded unhurriedly, and straightened his body pretending to have no hesitation: "Since you have seen through everything, Shopkeeper Qian, there is no need for us to hide it, we are former righteous men .”

"I don't care who you are, I'll just pretend I haven't heard what you said today~www.wuxiamtl.com~ You go, let me tell you, I can't afford to offend the Zhennanhou Mansion, and I don't want to offend you, so why don't I go? , I just want to do my business honestly.”

Jiang Cheng suddenly smiled, and looked at Shopkeeper Qian with meaningful eyes, "Treasurer Qian, you are a smart person, you didn't talk nonsense with the people in the Hou Mansion, did you?"

"No, don't worry, I, Qian, have a surprisingly strict mouth." Shopkeeper Qian seemed to feel that he had already mastered the right to speak in this negotiation, and became more and more confident.

Fatty recalled the story that Shopkeeper Qian told Jiang Cheng. Even after Jiang Cheng picked the key points, he told it for a full 20 minutes.

Shopkeeper Qian's antique shop has been cleaned up in a mess, it seems that all the valuable things have been put away, leaving only a pile of dreadful rags, and there is also a big package left by Shopkeeper Qian, which should be needed on the road luggage.

"Why are you still not leaving?" Shopkeeper Qian was aggressive.

Jiang Cheng looked at him and suddenly smiled, "It's not busy, Shopkeeper Qian. Before I leave, I want to borrow something from you. I don't know... is it convenient?"
