On the way to the inn, Lin'er and Magistrate Xia both felt that the marriage was settled, and they completely ignored Zhou Cheng's words, "He brought shame upon himself."
Let's not even talk about whether Zhou Cheng's fiancée is actually at the inn.
If they are not here, then all will be well.
If it is?
Lin'er curled her lips in triumph. If it were the moment she appeared, that Miss Cheng would probably be so ashamed that she would want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Someone who can't even compete with Lin Jiaoyun would probably look like a country bumpkin next to her stunningly beautiful face, and wouldn't even have the face to stay by Young Master Zhou's side.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Around the inn, figures emerged one after another.
A dozen or so young women dressed in casual clothes appeared at the entrance of the alley.
The leader, Qingyan, squinted and ordered those behind him, "Everyone, be on your best and be careful."
“The Zhou family has deadly weapons. Our people experienced them firsthand during the prison break in the capital. You can only hear one sound from that thing, and even the most skilled light-footed person can't avoid it.”
“I’ve already inquired. Zhou Cheng took a group of people to see the prefect of Wangcheng. The number of people left at the inn has been halved. Use sleeping pills to knock out the remaining members of the Zhou family.”
"Lan Yan, take your men and go to rescue our master immediately. You must get him out before Zhou Cheng returns."
The dozen or so people behind him immediately nodded solemnly: "Yes."
“My master must have suffered unbearable pain during this time. Zhou Cheng is despicable. He not only kidnapped my master, but also coveted her beauty, keeping her imprisoned by his side and throwing himself into his arms.”
“Our lives were given to us by our master. Without her, we wouldn’t have the dignity we have today.”
"I swear I will not rest until I avenge this."
His motivational words echoed in everyone's ears.
Their eyes were cold and fierce, and they gripped the blades of their knives as they slipped silently into the inn under the cover of night.
The inn had already been contracted out by Zhou.
The second floor has a total of twenty rooms, which are filled with Black Rat and the archers, with about six or seven people living in each room.
Qingyan led the group upstairs quietly, the wooden planks creaking softly. She held a sleeping powder in her hand, preparing to approach the first room and incapacitate everyone inside…
However,
She just poked a hole with her finger.
She was stunned!
Qingyan: "???"
"What's wrong? Quickly release some sleeping gas!"
“The group led by Zhou Cheng is well-trained, and their hearing and intuition are several times better than ordinary people. If we don’t take action soon, they might find out that something is wrong.”
"Qingyan, what's wrong?"
Qingyan silently withdrew the sleeping gas, her face filled with shock and confusion as she turned to look at everyone, saying, "The people inside are unconscious. There are two jugs of wine on the table, and they're all slumped over it, completely motionless..."
"I haven't even started, how come I'm already dizzy?"
Thinking this, Qingyan immediately rushed to the second room to take a look.
Great, the scene is exactly the same as the first room.
The same applies to all the following rooms.
A sense of foreboding welled up in Qingyan's heart. She immediately pushed open the door to check the cause. It turned out that a trace amount of sleeping potion had been put in the wine, and the ingredients of the sleeping potion were extremely special and rare.
This is Cheng Gui Ge's colorless and odorless bewitching powder, worth a thousand gold pieces per gram.
Have any of their people come?
That shouldn't be happening!
Even if their people came and drugged the wine, how could so many archers have been completely unsuspecting, allowing everyone to be poisoned at the same time?
