The innkeeper was angry.
Being easy to talk to doesn't mean he has no temper.
Su Qi snorted coldly, "I'll just watch the black shop you run. The bandits have escaped, and I'll only settle the score with you."
Su Qi swung the whip in his hand again, this time at the shopkeeper.
The innkeeper also knew martial arts, so he ducked and dodged.
Gu Beiheng's sword pierced the clothes on his back, and he glanced at the thug with disdain. "Why are you hiding? If you don't want to pay, I'll tear down your inn."
"You dare."
The leader of the thugs gave an order, "Go ahead." After being bullied to this extent, does the inn's reputation not matter anymore?
The thugs all gathered around.
The guests inside ran out into the street.
People on the street gathered around. Anyone who didn't watch the fun was a bastard.
There are many things like this in the black market, but everyone wants to watch the fun.
"Have you heard? The Wild Wolf's men failed to capture the three people who won money at the Soleil Palace."
"Those three people are causing trouble at the Yuhe Inn right now."
"Just these three people?"
"Yeah. Looking at their gentle and polite appearance, how come they don't look like they're capable of causing trouble?"
"It's probably going to be a very ugly death."
"It's hard to say."
Some people disagree.
Anyway, Su Qi and the others became celebrities on their first day in the black market. Even Young Master Zhang from the inn next door knew about it.
A prince from the Dongqi Kingdom came, including the adopted son of Prince Zhan.
The eldest and second young masters of the Yue family also accompanied them.
Hearing that Yue Jiushao was among the troublemakers, the eldest young master of the Yue family sneered coldly:
"I've met some idiot friends who are so arrogant that I don't even know their names."
They would not send anyone to help Yue Jiushao, as they were already planning to take possession of the assets under his name.
The prince of Dongqi Kingdom and the adopted son of Prince Zhan don't care about these things at all.
Gu Beiheng and the other two fought with the inn's thugs, the innkeeper, and the waiter.
There are more and more people.
Gu Beiheng subdued the shopkeeper in just a few moves and knocked down the leader of the thugs.
Several hidden guards jumped out.
These men were very skilled in martial arts, and they surrounded Gu Beiheng and attacked him, each move carrying murderous intent.
Su Qi was angry.
A packet of medicine powder was spread out, and the colorless and odorless powder was instantly inhaled by people.
She came quietly and sprinkled the powder in the room. Only a few people at the door saw her actions.
"There's poison."
Someone shouted.
A cold light flashed in Su Qi's eyes, and the rain of pear blossom needles in her hand shot towards the person who was speaking.
After the man finished speaking, he fell to the ground.
The people watching the excitement nearby immediately took a few steps back.
I dare not say a word more.
It was too late for anyone to hold their breath.
A large number of people collapsed in the inn.
In fact, that is not poison, but just cartilage powder that makes people feel weak all over.
Gu Beiheng took out a rope and strung these people together like gourds.
Su Qi kicked the shopkeeper outside and kicked him hard twice. Then she kicked the others fiercely.
How could those people be humiliated by a woman like this? They howled:
"Do you have the guts to let us go and have a fight?"
"There are dozens of you fighting against the three of us, and you still have the nerve to say you have guts? If your mother had guts, she wouldn't be so shameless." Su Qi kicked him a few more times without any hesitation.
"This matter cannot be resolved peacefully. Let your boss come out. A problem that can be solved with 100,000 taels of gold, you insist on scaring us again. This time, it can't be solved without 200,000 taels of gold."
When the people on the street heard this, they were all speechless.
The woman looked excited, and there was no sign of fear on her face.
Where's the face?
The owner of Yuhe Inn had already been alarmed.
He and Lao Kantou were drinking tea when they heard someone say that Wild Wolf had gone to his inn to deal with some unfamiliar and low-ranking people.
This kind of thing happens often, so he naturally doesn't take it seriously.
He also chuckled and said that these three people were reluctant to pay the protection fee and ended up losing their lives.
After a while.
Someone came over and said that the owner of the Yuhe Inn and others were pinned to the ground and kicked.
The man even boasted that the matter of 100,000 taels of gold must be resolved with 200,000 taels.
Old Kan frowned for a moment, then relaxed. Curious about these three people, he looked at Zhao Zhihao and said with a smile, "Master Zhao, it looks like those three are here to shuffle the cards."
Zhao Zhihao's face was terribly grim, and he pounded the table with his fist.
"If he fights me, I'm afraid his hair won't even grow back."
Old Kan stopped him and said, "Old Zhao, listen to my advice. You should judge the situation carefully. There are many people watching your shop. Don't give them any chance. I don't think those three people want to cause trouble, otherwise you would hear that all their men are dead."
Zhao Zhihao thought for a while, suppressing his anger in his heart.
What Old Kan said makes sense.
As soon as he showed any sign of fatigue, someone would definitely take his place.
"Thank you very much."
Zhao Zhihao got up and left.
Su Qi was tired of fighting.
She pulled a chair and sat on it, with Gu Beiheng standing beside her.
Yue Jiushao stood next to Gu Beiheng, and the three of them just waited.
There's no rush.
The people watching outside were stunned.
Su Qi was a little bored, so she said to Gu Beiheng, "Beiheng, can I sing a song for you?"
"I want to hear you play the piano."
Su Qi glanced around and said, "No."
Someone outside the house responded, "I'll get it for you."
Su Qi smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
Only then did everyone realize that this female evil spirit looked really beautiful when she smiled.
The man in lake blue clothes brought a guzheng from the shop next door. He tiptoed in and handed the guzheng to Su Qi.
"I borrowed this guzheng from the one next door. The sound quality is very good."
"Thank you very much."
Su Qi took it and tried to fiddle with it a few times.
Then came the song "Ten Sides of Ambush" which Gu Beiheng liked to listen to very much.
Magnificent.
The innkeeper was terrified when he heard this.
Many people on the street were attracted by the sound of the piano.
This song made their blood boil, and they wanted to pick up their swords and attack the surrounding area crazily.
The song ends.
A man in a black brocade robe walked in, clapping his hands. "Good. Madam, I've never heard this piece of music before."
When the innkeepers heard this, they burst into tears.
"Boss." The shopkeeper felt pain all over his body and curled up on the ground, unable to even straighten his legs.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng exchanged a glance. It seemed that this boss was a powerful figure. A man who could bend and stretch.
"I'm Zhao Zhihao, the owner of Yuhe Inn. May I know your names?" Zhao Zhihao glanced at the innkeepers and saw that they were only slightly injured.
I felt relieved, because Old Kan was right. The three of them had no intention of being enemies.
It's just that this tactic of making a show of force is intended to intimidate those who have ulterior motives.
"Gu Beiheng, my love is Su Qi. Master Yue Jiu." Gu Beiheng replied coldly.
"Nice to meet you." Zhao Zhihao handed the chips of 200,000 taels of gold to Gu Beiheng, and then invited the three of them to have tea.
Gu Beiheng glanced at the chips in his hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched. "Alright."
When someone heard this, they knew that Zhao Zhihao had compromised.
He couldn't help but yell in frustration, "Boss Zhao, the Yuhe Inn has lost its reputation, and you're so afraid of these three thieves from outside?"
A murderous look flashed in Zhao Zhihao's eyes.
He turned his head and sneered, "It seems that Mr. Huang's people are very concerned about my Yuhe Inn."
Zhao Zhihao invited Gu Beiheng and the other two to leave the inn, and many people gathered behind them to watch the fun.
"This way, please."
Zhao Zhihao brought Gu Beiheng and the other two to a teahouse. Old Kan was sitting in a private room on the second floor of the teahouse.
After entering, we introduced ourselves to each other.
Su Qi then realized that Old Kan was the boss behind the Colosseum. He had a face full of flesh and no warmth in his eyes. Even his words showed that he prioritized profit over everything else.
"Mr. Gu. I wonder what you are doing?" Old Kan glanced at Gu Beiheng and felt that this man looked familiar.
“It’s just farming.”
"Looks like someone crawling out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood." Old Kan hit the nail on the head.
Gu Beiheng picked up the teacup and smiled. Su Qi gave Gu Beiheng a vermilion pill and quietly handed one to Yue Jiushao.
Yue Jiushao understood what was going on and swallowed the pills with a cup of tea.
