When Han Zeyu arrived at the silver jewelry shop, the boss didn't recognize him. It was really because the person's style was too changeable, and the boss couldn't be blamed.
Han Zeyu looked at Su Shien proudly, and his meaning was very clear: you mortals can only indulge in his charm that has nowhere to go.
The boss didn't remember this strange order until he saw the receipt saying that the customized jewelry was a bell.
Pay the money and get the goods.
After completing the delivery, the two should have left as soon as possible, but Han Zeyu did not follow the usual path and shamelessly stared at the boss while he worked.
The shop owner also serves as the master chef and is always busy.
There are two real people standing behind you, and one of them is watching you work intently.
Even a boss who is taciturn couldn't help but slow down his tapping.
Han Zeyu's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself that this boss was really smart. He even knew to show him in slow motion, which made it easier to teach him!
How could Su Shien not understand him? To put it more elegantly, this person is the best of all schools.
But in fact, he was just openly learning the boss's skills. If the boss slowed down, it would be exactly what he wanted.
Han Zeyu kept staring at him, and the shop owner couldn't chase him away, so he just asked him to leave quickly and not come back again.
Han Zeyu also noticed the boss's abnormality and looked away awkwardly, feeling infinite emotion in his heart. What's wrong with just looking at him twice? The boss is still too shy.
Han Zeyu, who had learned a little bit, wanted to eat something to reward himself, but there was a curfew in southern Yunnan at night.
Looking at the empty streets, Han Zeyu felt disheveled in the wind.
You say that you are a prince whose fiefdom is independent of military and political affairs, but you don't even have a nightlife. No wonder the people's pockets are not getting fatter.
Fortunately, the Yuelai Inn where Su Shien had booked a stay was not far from here, so the couple walked back.
As an information distribution center, Yuelai Inn gathers all kinds of people. Although the environment is not very good, it has convenient transportation.
The inn is a two-story wooden building with a bluestone-paved official road in front of the door and a stable and a well in the backyard, which is indeed very convenient.
The shopkeeper behind the counter was fiddling with an abacus, and waiters were running around delivering food.
After the two sat down, they also ordered four bowls of chicken noodle soup. The noodles were soon served and Han Zeyu gobbled up three of them in no time.
Su Shien ate the noodles in the bowl slowly and ignored Han Zeyu's request to "give it to me if you can't finish it."
It's time to go to bed soon. It's good for your health to eat less.
Han Zeyu drank the noodle soup boredly, thinking that the chicken used to make the soup must be a veteran actor.
Su Shien wiped his mouth and motioned Han Zeyu to go back to the room with him.
The oil lamps in the corridor on the second floor flickered, and the silhouettes of different tenants were projected on the window paper. You could hear some buzzing conversations as you passed through the corridor.
Han Zeyu took off his shoes as soon as he entered the house, then lay down on the bed, wiggling his feet. He said depressedly, "I went into the city this afternoon, so why is there no news?"
Su Shien straightened the shoes on the ground and comforted the impatient Yu Ge'er: "Don't worry, wait and see at night. Isn't it said that dark and windy nights are the best time to kill people? They will definitely take action."
In order to deal with emergencies, the two of them lay down in their clothes and took a nap to replenish their energy.
The gong sounded at the third watch, and the hall gradually became quiet. Only the servant who was on night watch was left, adding some lamp oil from time to time.
Han Zeyu woke up, but he didn't open his eyes and still lay on his side in Su Shien's arms.
Not long after, there was a slight noise coming from the roof. Han Zeyu curled up his fingers excitedly and said, "I finally waited for you. Fortunately, I didn't give up."
Su Shien was tickled twice and woke up suddenly.
Hearing someone's suppressed laughter coming from the crook of my neck, I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Can't this person be a little more profound?
Knowing that the other party had finally taken action, Su Shien hurriedly folded his arms and hugged the person to prevent him from scaring the person on the roof away again.
This person wants to get in through the roof, which may be difficult. So what is he going to do? Even blowing incense can't be done on the roof, right?
Soon, the noise disappeared, which meant that the killer was in place and was about to proceed to the next step.
While Han Zeyu was still daydreaming, two tiles on the roof were moved away, followed by a rustling sound. It must be the gentleman on the beam throwing out his equipment.
After a while, there was a "bang" sound on the ground, as if something had fallen to the ground.
Han Zeyu and Su Shien were still pretending to be asleep, waiting for the next move of the gentleman on the beam.
But Han Zeyu could sense that the man was lying on the roof, motionless, observing the situation inside the room.
The two of them didn't receive the attacks or assassinations they expected, not even the smokescreen...
Huh? Wait a minute, Han Zeyu seemed to hear even stranger noises.
"Su Shien~Su Shien~"
Han Zeyu hugged her husband nervously. He was sure that there was no sign of a third party in the room except the two of them. So who was calling out these names?
Han Zeyu listened carefully. It was not the man on the roof who was screaming, but the thing he had just dropped.
It was the middle of the night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong, when a strange voice suddenly appeared in the house, calling out names.
Holy crap, if his experience were put on "Approaching Science", it could be filmed in three episodes.
Soon, they could tell from the sound that the unidentified object was getting closer and closer to them.
Han Zeyu felt his scalp tingling. The other party had no intention of fighting openly at all. It was obvious that they were using evil methods.
I came here on my own initiative, and this is how you treat guests?
A group of villains who have no martial ethics, are insidious, cunning, and shameless.
Han Zeyu was filled with rage and was so bold that he decided to go all out. He released his supernatural power to control the unknown creature that was approaching.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "crash" and a man in black fell from the roof, landing headfirst on the ground, unconscious.
Without waiting for the people in the inn to be awakened by the noise, Han Zeyu took the initiative to restore the roof.
Su Shien took out a tinder and lit the oil lamp on the table. Only then could he see clearly what the thing not far away was.
Han Zeyu squatted on the ground and used a stool to push the four long worms together. Su Shien was stunned by this action.
"Four small emerald green snakes, less than one meter long and weighing about three taels, with black and orange-red patches alternating on their backs."
Han Zeyu was curious, what kind of snake was this? It didn't look like a venomous snake.
Su Shien wanted to pretend to be calm, but he couldn't do it!
The actual situation was that he almost fainted. These four were tiger-striped colubrids, a type of venomous snake.
The tiger-striped colubrid is also called the "cockscomb snake". Although it is small in size, it can stand upright and can even imitate human voices to call people's names.
Han Zeyu was shocked. It turned out to be the famous crested snake. This was a new experience...
