It was just that the credit could be big or small. If they were allowed to demand an exorbitant price, they would not be left with anything.
They hurried back and finally heaved a sigh of relief. They planned to spend the night at the foot of the mountain and return to the mountain early the next morning.
Deputy Temple Leader Qin had told them that because there were more and more people at the foot of the mountain, almost all the inns were full.
Furthermore, it was not good for them to reveal their identities. Hence, they had specially arranged for their trusted subordinates to prepare a few rooms for them.
And they did not reveal their true identities to anyone.
Hence, when they checked in, they encountered a minor incident.
The cause was the three rooms that were empty for them.
"I say, boss, you are really stubborn. Since they did not come, why don't you give us the rooms first?"
The one who spoke was a well-dressed lady.
The boss smiled humbly and explained a few times.
"I am really sorry, these three rooms have been booked a few days ago. Moreover, they have already paid for the rooms. I am really sorry. Do you want to take a look at other people's rooms?"
The lady was also hit by a brick wall. She said impatiently, "But they are still not here. I will give you three times the room's price. Is that okay? "
The boss still said awkwardly, "Thank you, Miss. But this is not about money.
Please do not make things difficult for me. I am only running a small business. I am sorry to offend you and those guests! "
"You, how can you be so stubborn! I am giving you money but you do not want to earn it!
I don't care. I want to stay in your room today. If you do not give it to me, I will smash your shop! "
The boss wiped the sweat off his forehead. He was suffering in his heart.
The one who booked the rooms was someone from the Divine Temple. He did his business to earn money.
But if he offended someone from the Divine Temple at the foot of the Holy Mountain, he would not be able to continue his business.
He could only beg the lady to be merciful.
At this moment, Cai Ru and Baisu walked over.
"Shopkeeper, Mister Liu previously booked three rooms here, is that correct?" Cai Ru asked politely.
The boss nodded immediately as if he had seen his savior.
"I have already prepared them for you. Esteemed guest, this is your room key.
Buddy, come here quickly … "
The shopkeeper offered the key with both hands with a face full of smiles, but before Cai Ru could take it, it was swiftly snatched away by another hand.
Then, a heavy ingot was placed in Cai Ru's palm.
"Miss, I bought this room from you. Hurry up and move our things up. I'm so tired."
Unexpectedly, Cai Ru's expression changed, and she immediately snatched the key back.
"Miss, I don't think I agreed to exchange with you, right?"
The woman's expression was strange. She immediately said in a very bad tone, "How can you go back on your word? I gave you silver to exchange for it! Don't tell me you don't have enough silver? "
After saying that, he glanced at Cai Ru with contempt.
"Tell me, how much do you want?"
"Silver?"
Cai Ru smiled and took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeves.
"I don't care about this thing at all. Miss, I advise you not to have any ideas about us.
Buying and selling depends on one's own will. It's not good for you to forcefully buy and sell. "
Being slapped in the face by Cai Ru, the woman was so angry that her face turned red.
"You, you're bullying me together! I'll tell my brother about this, and you'll suffer! "
The woman stamped her feet and ran away like the wind. Her attendants also followed her out.
Lin Mengya and Qinghu came in. They had been dealing with other things just now, so they did not know what had happened here.
Cai Ru and Baisu did not take this episode to heart, so they did not tell Lin Mengya.
They had just settled down when the waiter served their dinner.
Baisu took it and placed it on the table.
At this time, Lin Mengya also walked out of the room. She glanced at the dishes on the table and asked, "Who brought it here just now?"
"It's the waiter in the restaurant. He specially ordered something light and nourishing for your stomach." Baisu replied.
Lin Mengya said lightly, "Someone put something in it."
"What? Is someone trying to hurt you? "
The two girls immediately tensed up and surrounded her in the middle.
Lin Mengya shook her head and told them not to be so nervous.
"It's just the most common knockout drug. You'll be fine even if you take it."
Even so, Cai Ru and Baisu still frowned.
"Has our whereabouts been exposed?" Cai Ru said worriedly.
Lin Mengya thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. If someone really wanted to hurt me, they would never use this kind of drug to fool people. "
Her relationship with her teacher had been known to the world.
No matter how stupid a person was, after knowing her real identity, he would not choose to deal with her in such a way that could easily expose his intelligence.
She was afraid that they had unintentionally offended someone, so they were being retaliated against.
After hearing her conclusion, the two girls suddenly understood.
She could not help but ask curiously, "What did you think of?"
Cai Ru said, "Master, when we came to get the key, we had a conflict with a girl."
Baisu was afraid that Cai Ru would be scolded by her master, so she immediately explained, "We booked this room first, but that girl was unreasonable and insisted on taking our room.
Cai Ru did not do anything to her. I think that girl is too narrow-minded. "
Now that she had found the reason, Lin Mengya did not want to complicate things.
She asked the waiter to change the dishes on the table. After eating and drinking, the four of them went back to the room to rest.
As soon as her head was on the pillow, she heard the alarm of Xiaoyao.
"Master, master, someone is blowing knockout smoke into your room!"
Lin Mengya also smelled it.
This knockout smoke should be the most common stuff in Jianghu. Not to mention the smell, the effect was not good.
She quietly got up and walked to the window.
Seeing a small pipe sticking out from under the window, she raised her lips and smiled coldly. Then she reached out and blocked the end of the smoke pipe.
"Cough, cough, cough …"
There was a violent cough outside the room. In an instant, the people in the two rooms next to hers were awakened.
The person who drugged her was so scared that he ran away. Unfortunately, the knockout smoke that was choked back made him gradually lose his strength.
Cai Ru and Baisu threw him into her room without much effort.
That person looked like a street thug.
When he saw the people in the room, he immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"I was muddle-headed and accepted someone else's money. I've done something wrong. Please be magnanimous and spare my life!"
Lin Mengya looked at him calmly.
"Who invited you here?"
That kid was just a hooligan who did things for money. He immediately betrayed his "boss" without any integrity.
"I didn't see who that person was. I only know that it was a young girl.
She asked her servant girl to bribe this lowly one and let this lowly one come and scare you. "
When Baisu and Cai Ru heard this, they concluded that it must be the girl who fought with them for a room today.
"This person is too petty. She was clearly in the wrong, but she hired someone to deal with Master!"
Baisu got angry immediately.
But Lin Mengya didn't show any anger.
She just wanted to know how this hoodlum was going to follow her.
The young lady reported.
Then she let him go and told him not to say a word about what happened tonight to anyone. Otherwise, he would be hunted down by the Holy Temple.
When the hoodlum heard the word "Holy Temple", he almost fainted.
After assuring Baisu that he wouldn't say anything, he was spared.
After the hoodlum left, Qinghu raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
"Girl, you don't want to give him a taste of his own medicine, do you?"
Lin Mengya said, "Do I look like such a boring person to you?"
Qinghu took a few steps back and said calmly, "It's not like. You are such a person."
Lin Mengya narrowed her eyes, grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it at him.
It was a pity that Qinghu was too agile. Not a single drop of tea splashed on him, let alone hit him.
Qinghu leaned over with a smile and said, "Don't be angry! I'll do bad things with you, okay? "
"Who's doing bad things? I'm just reminding them.
I don't want them to forget whose territory this is. "
Qinghu cupped his hands and said, "Welcome, Big Sister of the Holy Temple!"
Lin Mengya couldn't stand it anymore. She jumped over and grabbed Qinghu's ear.
"I think you're itching for a beating today. Come on, let me loosen your muscles and bones!"
Qinghu paid the pitiful price for his cheap mouth.
Covering his red ears, the four of them walked back and forth in the small town.
In the morning, screams came from the rooms of various inns.
"What's wrong, sir? Are you okay? "
The servants asked hurriedly.
However, the guests all chose to keep the peace without any exception.
Except for one person.
"Ah —"
A woman's scream came from a shabby room in the inn.
Her brother, who lived next to her, immediately rushed in and asked with concern, "Third sister, you …"
Before he finished his words, he saw a lot of dead rats on the floor of his sister's room.
"Brother! Hurry up and get rid of these rats! "
The girl was almost scared to death. She begged her brother with tears streaming down her face.
Her brother, on the other hand, looked at him in confusion.
"You, are you really my third sister?"
The girl was furious.
"Brother, you can't even recognize me!"
The man was a little embarrassed.
But he still quietly took a mirror on the dressing table, turned his face away and said, "You'd better see for yourself."
The girl was frightened and still in a state of shock.
After seeing clearly the figure in the mirror, she instantly fainted with a pale face.
"Third sister, third sister, help! Find a doctor! "
Her originally pretty face was now as red and swollen as a pig's head.
And the reason why she was specially taken care of was that she was the one who fought with Baisu and the others for the room and ordered the hooligans to scare Lin Mengya.
After doing all this, Lin Mengya, who was refreshed, went straight to the Holy Hall with the three of them.
Who asked them to be so blind and bumped into her when she was in a bad mood?
As for those who did not come out, they coincidentally found a portrait by the pillow.
There was nothing special about the portrait, but the person in it had a green face and fangs. It was placed by the pillow and could be seen as soon as one opened one's eyes. It was really frightening.
Later, when they inquired in private, they found out that the portrait was drawn by a very famous scholar in this town. It was a portrait of the King of Hell.
Suddenly, everyone was so scared that their limbs turned to jelly.
Could it be that the King of Hell came to teach them a lesson?
