Chapter 43: Being “captured” in the Seven Heroes Cliff “Is this the guy?…

Having got a chance to make a contribution, Pei Yixue started to plan his own plan.

That night, everything was silent, with only the chirping of insects rising and falling in the dark night.

Two sneaky figures sneaked into Jishi Inn like ghosts.

Listening to the subtle noise, Pei Yixue turned his back to the door and flipped through the account book slowly and methodically.

With his deliberate indulgence, everything went according to plan. After a while, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, his eyes went dark, and he fainted as expected.

After an unknown amount of time, Pei Yixue woke up slowly, feeling a dull pain in the back of his neck.

He slowly opened his eyes, and saw a blur of light and shadow in front of him. His nostrils were filled with the aroma of medicine, mixed with a faint smell of books and pine wood.

"Not awake yet? Don't I have to say that we should not attack such a sickly person? Don't let that blow kill him last night!"

A man's voice, with a bit of disdain and impatience, sounded in Pei Yixue's ears. The voice was rough and hoarse, like sandpaper rubbing against stone.

At the same time, a series of "dong dong" footsteps came from far away, like a heavy hammer hitting Pei Yixue's heart.

His heart tightened, not knowing what the other party was going to do, so he chose to continue to be an "unconscious" person and respond to all changes with the same attitude.

The man came and stood in front of Pei Yixue, placed two rough fingers under his nose, and tested his breath.

The finger smelled of sweat, which made Pei Yixue feel uncomfortable.

"Tsk! Still breathing." After detecting the breathing, the man stepped aside. His footsteps were particularly clear in the silent room. "Are we just going to wait for the Third Master to come? Or should we tie him up temporarily to prevent him from making trouble after he wakes up."

"Do you want to tie someone up like this? He has to gasp for breath after walking a few steps. Just wait for the Third In Command." The other man replied disdainfully.

From the conversation between the two, Pei Yixue could only grasp the key information of "the third in command", and this third in command would arrive soon.

Previously, the news that Lin Feng sent back only said that Qixiaya wanted to capture Pei Yixue from the "Ji Shi Station", but Lin Feng didn't know why they wanted to capture him.

But since the Seven Heroes took so much trouble to capture him alive and bring him up the mountain, he must have something that the Seven Heroes wanted.

In this way, in his dealings with the Seven Heroes, he seemed to be passive, but in fact he held a certain initiative.

"Squeak--" The sound of a door opening interrupted the conversation between the two people.

"Third Master!" The two men in the room shouted at the same time. The man who had just come to check on Pei Yixue said earnestly, "Third Master, the man has been captured, but he hasn't woken up yet."

Pei Yixue didn't know whether he should wake up immediately until he heard the voice of the third in command: "Well. Go down."

When Pei Yixue heard the familiar voice, he opened his eyes immediately. Who else could the third in command of that party be but Xing Wenhan!

Xing Wenhan was seen wearing a white suit, standing in the soft light of morning light, with a black belt tied around his waist, which made him particularly eye-catching.

Xing Wenhan grabbed him and took him to the Seven Heroes Cliff... While Pei Yixue was thinking, his eyes met Xing Wenhan's.

The man had a smile on his face, looking gentle and elegant, but he couldn't hide his lustful intentions: "Awake?"

"Manager Xing?" Pei Yixue took the opportunity to look around. The room was decorated very luxuriously and exquisitely, with everything from tables and chairs to calligraphy and paintings being of great value.

He quickly scanned the layout of the room, thinking of a plan, and asked, "Where is this?"

"Seven Heroes Cliff." Xing Wenhan spoke word by word, walked to Pei Yixue, and slowly sat on the couch.

The couch sank a little due to Xing Wenhan's weight. Xing Wenhan looked at Pei Yixue with greed in his eyes. "It's because Shopkeeper Pei is so hard to please that he can't even spare time for a cup of tea. I can only resort to this last resort."

Pei Yixue asked: "So, Shopkeeper Xing invited me here for tea?"

Xing Wenhan suddenly laughed as if he heard a joke.

The laughter echoed in the silent room, sounding particularly harsh.

The laughter had not yet stopped. Xing Wenhan stared at Pei Yixue and said, "Shopkeeper Pei, are you still pretending to be ignorant even though you know the truth?" As he spoke, his hand slowly reached out to Pei Yixue's face.

Pei Yixue tilted his head, and the slippery touch like a venomous snake brushed past his cheek, making him feel angry.

Xing Wenhan on the opposite side retracted his hand, placed it under his nose, and sniffed the fingertips greedily, as if there was some refreshing fragrance lingering on them.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Shopkeeper Pei, I have been thinking about this day for a long time."

For a moment, Pei Yixue's plan collapsed.

He originally thought that Qixia Cliff had gone to so much trouble to capture him because they must have taken a fancy to him. But now, looking at the situation, he was afraid that Xing Wenhan might have taken a fancy to him.

If Pei Yixue wants to work together with Governor Fang to wipe out the Seven Heroes Cliff, what he needs to do now is to protect himself first.

At this time, the two bandits in the house obviously sensed Xing Wenhan's intention. They looked at each other and quickly left the room.

As the door closed again, Xing Wenhan said to Pei Yixue like a venomous snake: "Don't be afraid. After the first time, you will look forward to the second time."

Under the wide hem of his clothes, Pei Yixue held a silver needle in her hand: "Excuse me for being blunt, but I have no interest in Shopkeeper Xing. Why should Shopkeeper Xing be so obsessed with this?"

He stood up, and his sudden tall figure made Xing Wenhan stand up involuntarily and take a half step back.

Pei Yixue stepped off the bed and took two steps forward. The other party looked at him, his eyes moving around, and his momentum was unconsciously greatly reduced.

"What do you want to do? This is the Seven Heroes Cliff."

When talking about Qixia Cliff, Xing Wenhan seemed to regain his confidence and reached out his dirty hands to Pei Yixue again.

But before he could touch him, Pei Yixue grabbed the back of his neck with one hand. The firm strength of her hand frightened Xing Wenhan greatly.

"You..." Xing Wenhan was confused. This was very different from what he thought.

"Why do you have to kidnap a good husband when you can do something else? You will have to pay the price." Pei Yixue turned the direction of the silver needle between her fingers and inserted it into Xing Wenhan's Fengchixue.

Xing Wenhan's eyes rolled up and he fell to the ground with a bang.

Pei Yixue walked around the body and slowly came to the door.

He opened the door and faced two stunned faces. He said, "Take me to see your boss."

The two bandits were stunned when they saw Pei Yixue opening the door. One of the thin bandits reacted and immediately ran inside to find Xing Wenhan.

The remaining bandit, who was tall, strong and dark, was still staring at Pei Yixue.

Pei Yixue said: "If you don't want your Third Boss to die, take me to find your First Boss."

The tall and strong bandit seemed to have finally grasped some key information, and immediately drew his sword and put it on Pei Yixue's neck: "What did you do?"

At this time, a skinny bandit chased out and said anxiously, "The Third Master is still breathing, but we can't wake him up. You keep an eye on him while I go find Old Man Wu."

"It's useless to look for him." As Pei Yixue finished speaking, the knife on his neck got closer to his flesh, and the chill was pressing. "If I die, you, the Third Master, can't save me."

"How dare you threaten me!" The bandit got angry and pretended to cut Pei Yixue's throat.

Pei Yixue frowned as the pain hit him. He stared at the skinny bandit next to him and said again, "If you don't want anything to happen to the Third Boss, take me to find the First Boss."

Walking on the stone road, turning into a few blue brick alleys, and crossing a wide open area, Pei Yixue followed the two bandits to a towering village building.

After everyone had passed the message, Pei Yixue finally met the legendary leader of the Seven Heroes Cliff.

Inside the house, a man sat on a huge tiger-skin chair with his arms and legs stretched out. He looked up at Pei Yixue. The majesty of a superior was fully revealed with just one glance.

"Is this the guy? He does look good." The man spoke with contempt.

"Boss, you are too kind." Pei Yixue replied with a smile, "I came here to discuss a deal with you, Boss... "Since he didn't have the points that the Seven Heroes were interested in, he would create one.

The man stared at him with a hawk-like gaze, and snorted coldly, "Negotiate a deal with me? Are you trying to threaten the third brother's life to let you go?"

"No, Pei has two requests." Pei Yixue's voice was a little weak.

The man rested his hands on the table, silent, yet his expression was full of disdain.

Pei Yixue continued, "First, I would like to ask the boss to forgive my crime of disrespect. The situation was urgent before, and I had no choice but to injure the third in command. Cough cough..." As he spoke, he coughed violently again.

"Second, Pei wants to get out of the Seven Heroes Cliff alive and seek the protection of the big boss. In exchange, Pei's Jishi Posthouse will be used by the Seven Heroes Cliff in the future. Ahem."

Pei Yixue coughed a few times after a few words, causing the man to look disdainful: "Ji Shi Yi Station?"

"The post station nowadays may not be worthy of the boss's attention. It is normal that the boss has never heard of it. It is similar to the escort agency, mainly transporting various goods.

In the past six months, Pei's Jishi Posthouse has spread throughout Lingyi Province, and is now working on connecting neighboring provinces. Within a year, it will be able to cover the entire Daqing Kingdom. I believe that with such a huge transportation network, it will be beneficial to Qixia Cliff. "After saying a long paragraph, Pei Yixue couldn't stop coughing.

The man was silent for a moment, his eyes looking back and forth at Pei Yixue, as if he was weighing the truth of his words.

"It sounds good. But why should I believe you?" The man's voice was low and cold, full of doubt.

"Pei loves money and cherishes his life. If the boss is worried that Pei will regret it, I believe that with the boss's ability, he is enough to make Pei die without a burial place."

The man chuckled, and the laughter echoed in the room, carrying a bit of weirdness.

Then, his face darkened and his voice was as terrifying as the Yama of Hell: "Well said! Not only you, but also everyone around you, will be killed without a burial place at the Seven Heroes Cliff."

As he spoke, the man threw out a yellowed sheepskin map in his hand.

The map drew an arc in the air, and with a strong wind, it landed steadily in front of Pei Yixue.

"Qingzhou has a batch of black iron. Write a letter now and arrange your people. I want to see the goods within three days. Otherwise, you and that post station will all disappear."

Based on the previous escort agency's speed, it would take at least five days to get from Qingzhou to Qixia Cliff. Pei Yixue could see that the man was clearly trying to make things difficult for him, and at the same time, he also wanted to see if he had the ability to be worth keeping.

But "three days" is such a coincidence. Pei Yixue and the government agreed to capture the Seven Heroes Cliff in three days.

"I will follow the boss's orders." Although Pei Yixue had a lot of thoughts in his mind, he didn't show it on his face.

He bent down and slowly picked up the map, his fingertips touching the rough sheepskin. The ambition to take over the Seven Heroes Cliff in three days surged in his chest like a raging wave.
