Time passed by minute by minute.

However, Chu Changzui felt that the days passed like years.

He heard the general order to open all the gates in Yangzhou City so that the shopkeeper could not be blocked on his way.

Then, Chu Changzui heard the general order again.

He asked all the shops to display the best things in their homes to delay the arrival of the shopkeeper.

All the silks, satins, pearls and jades, the rare treasures in the world were exposed to the sun in Yangzhou City today, just to delay one person and let her take a closer look.

Chu Changzui was a little surprised when he heard it.

According to the general's plan, how long would the shopkeeper have to delay before he could return to the inn?

He originally thought that the shopkeeper was very good at Qinggong, so he still had a little hope in his heart that the shopkeeper could rush back in the shortest time and stop the old thief king.

At present, there are really no people in the inn during the day. Li Qi goes out to buy vegetables at this time every day, An Huoshaxi needs to catch up on sleep during the day, and Feng Xiruo is awake, but unfortunately he is also a thief.

Moreover, he can only be regarded as the descendant of the old thief king.

It's over, it's over, please God, let the shopkeeper wake up quickly and rush back to the inn as soon as possible!

...

At this moment, Feng Qing knew nothing about the fact that someone wanted to imprison her.

She still followed the map and walked towards the destination, listening to her friend telling her what she needed to pay attention to.

Her friend was a softhearted person. Although she kept insulting Feng Qing, she still encouraged her at this time.

"How is it? Are there many people?"

"There are... quite a lot of people." Feng Qing said.

"So how do you feel now?"

"I feel... a little bit nervous, but it's okay. It feels easier than I thought. But are there so many things on the street? There seem to be a lot of vendors."

Feng Qing looked around and said with emotion, "Hey, is this necklace so cheap? I'm surprised. It's much better looking than the expensive necklace next to it."

"Then what else do you want? Buy it quickly."

"Buy it, buy it." Feng Qing said, "There's a hat here that looks good."

"Then buy it!" her friend said.

Feng Qing's friend is actually very tolerant of Feng Qing, because she has always known what kind of person Feng Qing is.

So when Feng Qing was buying things like crazy, she not only did not stop him, but was particularly happy for him.

Because only she knew that it would be a long time before Feng Qing, who was in the late stage of social phobia, could go shopping like this.

She listened to the sound of Feng Qing buying things in her headphones, and even felt a little sad.

Just as Feng Qing and her friends were buying things, the news quickly came back to General Shi He.

"Report!"

General Shi He listened to the report from his subordinates.

"The shopkeeper is now staying in front of a store. He has been picking things there for a long time and seems to be stationary for the time being."

"Sure enough." General Shi He smiled.

"She was too confident in her own ability, so she didn't anticipate that this was a conspiracy?"

"Or... even if she knew, she didn't take it to heart at all?"

After buying the necklace, Feng Qing bought a hat, and then sighed, "It's a pity that I don't have much money on me, otherwise I would like to buy more..."

"Okay, let's go first, don't you still have to attend the conference?" her friend asked in the headset, "If you want to buy something, come back and buy it later. If you keep dithering, you will be late again."

"Okay, I'll go there now." Feng Qing said, "I'll turn on the navigation later..."

When she saw the map, she suddenly frowned.

"Hey, why is the road here a straight line? It feels so strange."

"Why, is the straight line wrong?" Her friend asked curiously in the Bluetooth headset.

"It's not wrong, but it feels like this place shouldn't be so spacious." Feng Qing shook her head, a little confused, but didn't say much, just walked towards the target location on the map.

Indeed, this place shouldn't be so flat, why is it like this?

Feng Qing is a very carefree person after all, so she didn't expect that everything in front of her was like a cage, leading her into the trap little by little.

And just as Feng Qing walked towards the straight road, someone knelt in front of General Shi He at this moment.

"Report! The shopkeeper has already entered the path we set up before, and is heading this way."

"Great." General Shi He smiled deeply, and then slowly stood up.

The people below looked at him secretly, angry but not daring to speak. All the people around were the Yu Lin Army. The

people in the martial arts world have always believed in not getting too involved in the affairs of the court, but when so many Yu Lin Army gathered together, even the most powerful people in the martial arts world would be a little trembling in their hearts.

"Now, the old thief king should also take action, right?" said General Shi He, "In such a short time, the shopkeeper will definitely not be able to catch up. By then, it will be easy to get the thing."

His sight penetrated to a very far place, as if he could see a person wearing a black combat hat there.

When General Shi He waited for the shopkeeper to arrive, he did not intend to make up a lie to deceive her, nor did he intend to confront her head-on. He would just tell her clearly that he had already sent someone to steal the secret book from her.

He liked to see that kind of extremely shocked but helpless expression.

Especially on this powerful shopkeeper.

How great would it be if he could see her showing such an expression?

Just thinking about this, General Shi He was trembling with excitement.

And this was just as he expected.

——Not far from the inn, a man with a slightly haggard face was waiting there quietly.

If you don't tell him his identity, everyone would think he was just a homeless man.

His cheeks were already covered with wrinkles, and his hands were full of hairpins, but only those who knew his true identity would be shocked by the old man in front of them.

He was the old thief king.

Li Guxing had already walked out of the door with a basket of vegetables on his back.

The old thief king's eyes took in everything in the inn.

Perhaps because the shopkeeper was away today, the inn had been deserted. Even the beggar who usually begged for food at the door didn't come. Of course, there were also many people who heard some rumors and left the inn early.

These people are smart. I'm afraid that after tonight, this nameless inn will become a laughing stock, and then this so-called safe haven will no longer exist.

After Li Guxing left for a while, the old thief king finally moved.

He was ready to take action.

...

Chu Changzui didn't know how long he had been waiting. He felt that his throat was so dry that he could hardly speak.

At this moment, at this moment, a figure suddenly walked slowly to the front door.

The figure looked small from inside the house, wearing a black hat.

Chu Changzui was stunned when he saw the figure, and then his pupils continued to dilate.

"How come it's this place?"

Feng Qing's friend suddenly heard Feng Qing say this through the headset.

Her tone sounded a little incredible.

"What place?"

"A place that looks very large and luxurious, I can't explain it." Feng Qing said, "And there are so many people wearing official uniforms around... I always feel like I'm in the wrong place."

"What? Wearing official uniforms?" Feng Qing's friend always felt that this sentence was a little strange, "Is it the official uniform used for filming? Ask again, are you seeing it wrong?"

"No, I shouldn't be seeing it wrong." Feng Qing thought to herself.

After all, she traveled back to ancient times for such a long time, how could she see something like this wrong?

"That should be the place." Feng Qing said uncertainly at last, "It's okay, no problem."

"Are you sure there's nothing wrong?" Her friend asked again, and after getting an affirmative answer, she gave up thinking about what was going on.

There shouldn't be any big problems, right?

"Okay then." She said, "I'll continue to tell you about the things you need to pay attention to when you give a speech later."

...

The shopkeeper actually came! Chu Changzui exclaimed in his heart.

His breathing was already not smooth.

Although the shopkeeper standing there gave people an indescribable sense of security, and even made Chu Changzui have an impulse to burst into tears at this moment. But he didn't want to see the shopkeeper at this moment.

Go away! He tried his best to wink at the shopkeeper.

The inn is in danger!

"... You are finally here."

However, everything is still a step too late.

Before Chu Changzui finished his look, a voice came from the air.

"But unfortunately, you are still too late... I regret to tell you that your thing should have been in my hands now."

General Shi He said, and suddenly he laughed terribly.

"Hahaha..."

He looked at the shopkeeper in front of him with a mocking expression on his face.

"Go back quickly, go back and find your secret book, but even if you go back now, I'm afraid you'll have gained nothing, hahaha..."

Feng Qing's friend was still chattering with Feng Qing in the headset about the techniques that can be used when giving a speech, such as treating everyone below as radishes and cabbages, and using the energy of the Dantian when giving a speech, otherwise it is easy to be unable to make a sound.

As a result, as she was talking, she suddenly heard a very strange laugh coming from the headset.

The laughter made her shiver for no reason.

Then, Feng Qing in the headset screamed again.

"Hey, what's going on?" Feng Qing not only screamed, but also asked vigorously, "How could this happen?"

"What happened?" Her friend felt that Feng Qing's tone seemed a little wrong.

"What happened?"

"No, it's impossible!" Feng Qing seemed to have not heard anything at all, and was still shaking his head vigorously, "It's absolutely impossible!"

Feng Qing's friend's heart skipped a beat.

Based on her friendship with Feng Qing for so many years, she immediately concluded that Feng Qing must have seen something special and beyond her expectations, so she made such a sound.

She wanted to continue asking, but before she could even say a word, she suddenly heard Feng Qing's screams.

This scream was simply heartbreaking.

At that moment, she broke out in a cold sweat.

"Feng Qing, how are you? Are you okay?" Feng Qing's friend shouted frantically.

"Feng Qing, answer the phone!"

"Hurry up and answer the phone!"

Feng Qing's friend made a video call in a hurry, and then started to call frantically. Feng Qing seemed to be particularly confused, and he answered

the call accidentally. However, the moment the call was connected, Feng Qing's friend heard a louder scream from Feng Qing's mouth.

"——Ah!!"

"You..."

...

... You.

Feng Qing's friend stared blankly at the familiar room,

the familiar background, the familiar chaos, and... that familiar person.

Feng Qing was still covering her face and screaming, looking like she was in agony.

She buried her face in her arms, not daring to look up at her friend.

Her friend looked at her for a long time, and suddenly her eyes turned into dead fish eyes.

"Don't look at me!" Feng Qing shook her head frantically, "Hurry up and hang up the video!"

"You..." Feng Qing's friend suppressed the anger in her heart and forced a stiff smile on her face.

Feng Qing seemed to have anticipated her own death, struggling like a salted fish.

"Didn't you say you were going to a meeting?" Her friend said with a smile.

"Why are you still in your room now, and you don't even have a quilt?"

Feng Qing heard something terrible in her friend's tone, and immediately sat down obediently.

"Come to think of it, you're obviously fine, so why are you making such a terrible noise?" Her friend looked around the room and found a new problem.

"I'm playing games!" Feng Qing shouted back righteously, "I was killed by the boss, can't I scream?"

Her friend turned her eyes to the computer next to her.

There was a character who died tragically.

This character was wearing a particularly gorgeous necklace and a particularly exaggerated hat.

Looking at it, her friend suddenly covered her stomach in pain.

"Don't tell me that the one on that character is the necklace and hat you just said you bought?"
