After nightfall, the inn finally became quiet, and the guests who had been drinking upstairs returned to their rooms and fell asleep.
Jiang 깇月 opened the door and walked quietly to the end of the second floor.
She had already observed clearly that the drunk man entered this room.
Jiang Yueyue used her special ability to lift the door bolt, pushed the door open and walked in, and then she put the door bolt down again to lock the door.
The drunk was lying on the bed in a crooked manner, without even taking off his clothes. It was obvious that he was too drunk and fell asleep directly on the bed.
Jiang Xiaoyue took out a dagger and slashed the drunk's body with it cleanly. The drunk immediately screamed like a slaughtered pig.
The moment his voice rang out, Jiang Xiaoyue went straight to the roof through the window, and forgot to close the window.
Only a few seconds passed and Jiang Xiaoyue had returned to her room through the window.
The drunk's howling was so loud that it seemed to lift the roof off the house, and soon woke up all the residents on the second floor.
Several residents living next to him opened their doors and complained, "Who is it? Howling in the middle of the night!"
But the drunk's screams began to be mixed with cries for help. Everyone felt something was wrong, and even the innkeeper's wife came over.
"What happened?"
The neighbor pointed to the drunk's room and said, "He was howling in the room and yelling for help. We woke us up. We don't know what happened."
The landlady pushed the door and it opened. It must have been bolted from the inside.
At this time, the drunk's howling became more and more shrill. All the guests opened their doors and looked over here. Jiang Xiaoyue also pretended to be frightened and leaned her head over to look over here.
The lady boss had no choice, she was also afraid that if someone died, her post house would be closed, so she could only let the man break the door open.
Several servants and the residents worked together to break open the drunkard's door.
The proprietress quickly took her family up to check, and saw the drunk lying on the bed. He had fainted from the pain, and there was a pool of blood on his body, staining the bedding red.
And between his legs, his precious second brother fell on the bedclothes, and he was completely separated from his family.
The proprietress screamed, covered her eyes and took several steps back.
The servants and residents present couldn't help squeezing their legs together when they saw this scene, and some even felt a dull pain in their own little brothers.
The guests who lived in rooms far away were also curious when they heard the proprietress's scream, and they all came over to see what was going on.
The proprietress paused for a moment, looking at the room full of people, and said calmly, "The door is locked, and the dagger is next to him. He must have been drunk and stabbed himself."
The guests present felt annoyed again after hearing this. How cruel could this be, to kill his own second brother when he was drunk?
The landlady ordered the servant, "Go to my room and get some medicine powder to stop his bleeding first, then go to the village and get the barefoot doctor to prevent him from dying."
This post station was located outside the city. Once the city gates were closed, even the most serious incidents could not be brought into the city. One could only go to the nearby village to ask a barefoot doctor to come and treat the patient, and the patient could not be sent to the clinic until the next morning.
The errand boy left quickly, and the proprietress stamped her feet, "What the hell! You got drunk and did it to yourself! It's really bad luck!"
No one present had any doubt that the drunk was kidnapped, because the door was locked and the others could not get in. It took several people working together to push the door open.
"When you're drunk you can do anything. You even gave your own younger brother to me. From now on you're a man."
"He's drunk, he's drunk to the point of being stupid. When I came back to the room, I saw him, his eyes were already straight, what else could he do?"
"Luckily he only killed himself and didn't hurt anyone else. If he got drunk and started hacking people around, we who live nearby would be in big trouble!"
Several residents who lived nearby were still in shock. Fortunately, the drunkard only hurt himself. If he had hurt someone else, the first ones to suffer would be those who lived next door.
In a room further away, Liu Tianci closed the door and asked, "Did you castrate that drunkard?"
Jiang Xiaoyue nodded with concern, "It's obvious that he is not a good guy. He flirts with decent women when he gets drunk. I will confiscate his tools. I wonder who he can flirt with in the future."
Liu Tianci couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. This woman was indeed ruthless enough. No wonder so many pirates fell into her hands.
"Okay, let's get some rest. We have to travel the next day."
Jiang Xiaoyue lay down with her clothes on and left a place for Liu Tianci.
Liu Tianci turned over to the inside of the bed, and fell asleep without saying anything more.
It's just that neither of them dared to let down their guard. Jiang Xiaoyue has always been like this, but Liu Tianci was wary of everyone, including Jiang Xiaoyue.
Although Jiang Xiaoyue was hired by Liu Tianci at a high price, he still dared not let go completely, even to the point of falling asleep.
The post station was noisy for a long time, and it was not until midnight that it became quiet.
The next morning, when Jiang Xiaoyue and Liu Tianci went upstairs to have breakfast, there were already few guests on the first floor who were having breakfast. They were talking about how a drunk man had attacked their second brother last night and nearly caused him to bleed to death.
"It's really fortunate that the boss's hemostatic powder was used and the barefoot doctor came quickly, otherwise he would have bled to death long ago."
"Luckily he didn't die. If someone died in the post station, none of us would be able to leave today."
"Tell me, what is he thinking? Don't just talk nonsense and sleep when you are drunk. Is he your second brother?"
The lobby on the first floor was very lively. Liu Tianci and Jiang Xiaoyue found a quiet corner and sat down.
As soon as the second child sat down, he came over and said, "Hey, are you two people living next to each other? Didn't you go to the second child's stupid room last night?"
Liu Tianci shook his head and didn't want to talk more, but the man turned out to be a very talkative person. He sat down at their table and started chattering.
Jiang Xiaoyue lowered her head and drank her porridge without making a sound. Liu Tianci seemed not to hear her. He felt bored and walked away with the bowl in his hand.
"Leave as soon as you finish eating to avoid getting into trouble."
After Liu Tianci finished speaking, he quickly finished his breakfast. Jiang Xiaoyue also put down her bowl and followed him away.
After paying the bill, Erji got on the carriage and quickly left the post station.
It was another bumpy day in the carriage. Jiang Xiaoyue was so depressed that she could only secretly put a cushion on her butt.
The next few days were uneventful. Apart from the fact that the carriage was too bumpy, Jiang Xiaoyue felt that she had earned the fifty thousand taels too easily.
But the reward of fifty thousand taels of silver was obviously not something she could earn so easily. After they checked into an inn that day, Jiang Xiaoyue smelled a hint of danger.
Because after entering the post station, she felt as if someone in the post station was staring at them, but when she looked carefully, the sight disappeared again.
Jiang Yue's heart sank. She must have been mistaken. There must be some amazing people hiding in this post station, who were here for Liu Tianci.
