"She should be fine, but the person next to her is seriously injured."
When they saw the two people lying on the bed, almost everyone's heart tightened.
An Huoshaxi was lying on the bed with a pale face. Although she was bloodless, she didn't seem to be seriously injured on the surface. But the person next to her was almost unrecognizable.
In order to hide his identity, Chu Changzui stayed in the inn and didn't come out, so only Li Qi and Feng Xiruo, who was in disguise, came here. When they saw An Huoshaxi, they almost fell silent at the same time.
An Huoshaxi hasn't woken up yet, so she can't ask what happened for the time being, but the people around her have told her the general process of the incident.
After listening to what those people said, Feng Xiruo politely let them leave. After they left, Feng Xiruo rubbed his head with a headache.
"Do you feel the murderous aura around here?"
"No, this is very strange." Li Qi frowned and said.
If the person who attacked An Huo Shaxi was an insider, then they should have felt the murderous aura in Hua Ci Lou, but it was quiet here, and everyone around them looked loyal.
This completely abnormal feeling made the two of them a little creepy.
Sure enough, as Hua Chaodu said, he could not detect any signs of betrayal, but he was seriously injured.
The two men walked towards the old killer who was said to have been wounded by a hidden weapon and whose body was incomplete. The parts of the man's body were almost unrecognizable, but the corners of his mouth were still smiling. That expression made people feel cold.
"Are you here for the shopkeeper?" Feng Xiruo asked.
"Yes." Li Qi slowly glanced at the smile on the killer's face and frowned.
Li Qi, who often dealt with this group of people before, knew what such an expression meant.
It was an expression as if his long-cherished wish had come true.
This guy was actually willing to die. Li Qi had seen such expressions the most on some dead men.
Who was he doing this for?
Li Qi looked through some information and found that the guy in front of him had more experience than he thought. He was one of the oldest people in Huaci Tower. He grew up in Huaci Tower and had never been heard of betraying Huaci Tower. When
he was young, he completed many missions and gained a great reputation in the underworld. When he was older, he retired willingly and taught young people in the tower. He was a successful person. It was impossible to imagine what kind of things would make him make such a choice this time.
Li Qi flipped forward again and suddenly paused at a certain page.
It recorded some things about the old killer's childhood.
At that time, the old owner had been missing for a long time, and the new owner had not appeared. When this old killer was young, he often said that he would wait for the old owner to come back and become the most powerful killer under him.
And Li Qi knew that the so-called old owner was actually the shopkeeper.
This loyal old killer finally broke his oath. He did not work for the old owner, but obeyed another person.
What kind of person could make him do such a thing?
...
The inn has not kept many guests recently, but for those guests who look like they are going to spend the New Year in a foreign land, they will still be accommodating.
The guest who just came in was carrying a huge backpack and wearing a coarse linen shirt, looking like a simple old farmer.
In fact, to be honest, this guy really seemed to be an old farmer, because Feng Qing saw a small hoe on him, and she was familiar with the backpack. The old farmers nearby often used it to carry some vegetables to sell at the market. He
couldn't go home during the New Year, and he seemed to be a miserable person. Otherwise, he could be exempted from the room fee, Feng Qing thought.
She didn't think about anything else, but continued to read. However, after reading for a while, she suddenly became a little alert.
The guy she thought was an old farmer just now gave her a strange feeling, as if he was not just an old farmer...
Because when Feng Qing was taking a selfie with her mobile phone, she happened to see the guy staring at her with a strange look on the screen.
The guy's eyes were very penetrating. After Feng Qing was stunned for a moment, she realized that the guy suddenly avoided it very sensitively.
Normally, the guests should not be able to see the mobile phone screen, and it is even more impossible for him to realize that Feng Qing was looking at him through the mobile phone screen, but he still avoided it.
Feng Qing thought that this guy's intuition was quite sharp. When she was in school, she only developed this sixth sense when she avoided looking at the teacher.
But what on earth is this guy doing here? He doesn't look like a guest staying at the inn at all.
Xu Erlang just came out of Huacilou in a hurry. After he came out, he was eager to see what was going on with the shopkeeper, so he dressed up and rushed here again.
In fact, he always felt that there was something attractive about the shopkeeper. Apart from anything else, the mystery alone made him unable to control his desire to explore.
When he came here, he found that the shopkeeper was still sitting in the room calmly, as if he had no idea how big a problem a certain employee of the inn had.
This is a bit strange. Could it be that the shopkeeper is confident about all this? Xu Erlang hesitated for a while, but then shook his head.
It doesn't look like that.
The shopkeeper in front of him really confused him, and he casually took off a backpack on his back.
In Feng Qing's eyes, he looked dusty, but in the eyes of other people in the martial arts world, it was completely different.
Because, there was a bunch of flowers in the backpack behind him.
A bunch of roses that were about to bloom.
This was simply incredible in this season, because no one would understand why roses would bloom in winter.
If ordinary people saw it, they would probably think it was the flower god who came down to earth and kowtow to him.
However, for people in a moment, as long as they have money, there is nothing they can't get.
- Put the roses in a room as warm as spring, and keep them surrounded by braziers all the time, then drip special medicine on the roses, so that the roses will bloom in winter, cut them off with branches, tie them into a bunch, and then put them in a backpack.
Each bunch of roses obtained in this way is worth a lot of money.
Such roses are naturally not used in ordinary occasions. So it can actually be regarded as an important token of a certain hall in a moment.
- Flower Hall.
One flower, two lives, three crow heads, four emotions, five clouds, and six heavens and earths.
Although it is called the Flower Hall, the people here are all demons that make people in the world tremble with fear.
They not only pursue the pinnacle of martial arts, but also try to pursue something beyond martial arts.
Everyone knows that if you want to see how many lives the people in Huatang have killed, just look at how many bouquets of flowers are in the basket behind him.
Xu Erlang is not from Huatang, or he is not from any hall. He completely obeys only the leader, but this does not prevent him from always disliking the leader of Huatang.
Since he doesn't like him, he can splash some dirty water on Huatang.
After all... this is actually what the leader meant in private.
The leader is a person with an unstable mind. It is hard to say what thoughts a person in a moment will bring about the disaster of murder. This time, the leader of Huatang seems to be in trouble, but Xu Erlang doesn't care and doesn't pay much attention to the reason.
While thinking about it, Xu Erlang saw the shopkeeper's eyes looking over here, and those eyes seemed to be fixed on the roses in the basket for a moment.
A bunch of roses about to bloom, plus the clothes of a herbalist who just returned from the mountains are typical characteristics of a Huatang person.
After seeing the shopkeeper's eyes, Xu Erlang's mind moved, knowing that the shopkeeper should have recognized this Huatang token.
In fact, except for the shopkeeper, most people in the inn have already recognized the Huatang person sitting in the corner.
Many people quietly put down their wine glasses and chopsticks, and carefully slipped out of the back door. There are also many skilled and courageous people who eat and chat while observing the movements here with their eyes, but such people are not as good as.
Although Xu Erlang came to provoke in a fancy dress, he did not do anything out of line from beginning to end, just like an ordinary guest. Although many people died in this inn in an instant, Xu Erlang knew that most of them violated the rule of the inn.
He always had a strange feeling that if he did not touch the rule, then in this inn, the people in an instant might be no different from ordinary guests eating.
The shopkeeper did not seem to have any opinion on this.
Feng Qing was really observing the guest who came in.
She originally thought that the other party was just an ordinary old farmer, but then she found that she might have misunderstood.
Because she saw the roses in the basket on the man's back.
This is... Feng Qing's eyes lit up instantly.
Did the ancients still have greenhouse technology?
When she was looking at the book just now, she was a little complacent, thinking that with her knowledge, it would be easy to crush these ancients in farming. But at this time, someone came in with a basket of roses, and all of these roses were blooming wildly. Feng Qing suddenly woke up.
It seems that the farming in the ancient martial arts world is indeed a little different from her impression.
However... Feng Qing carefully observed the roses again, and then her heart relaxed a little.
Although these roses look particularly lush, proving that the ancients must have had some good experience in greenhouse cultivation, the varieties of these roses are too simple and cannot be compared with those that Feng Qing saw in the garden in his previous life.
And it just so happened that Feng Qing had just learned some knowledge from the book he was reading.
Roses are a relatively common flower plant in the field of grafting.
