Chapter 222 Idle Personnel Paving the Way



"What? The mother of the guy I went on a blind date with a few days ago suddenly stopped going to square dancing?"

When Feng Qing, who had just returned to work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, suddenly received such a call, she was really shocked by what her mother said.

"Not really, although I may have performed a little bit badly, but not to that extent."

Feng Qing, who had just returned to the inn, immediately received an explosive news. The family of the guy she went on a blind date with suddenly lost contact with their family for some unknown reason.

Now, the guy's mother even walks half an hour to the next door to dance square dancing.

This can be regarded as a highlight even in Feng Qing's glorious blind date history.

"Tell me what you do every day." Feng Qing's mother firmly believed that Feng Qing might have done something particularly crazy to the big brother, and even had the intention of rushing to Feng Qing's workplace to beat her up. Feng Qing

was so scared that she was sweating all over.

She thought that it was a small matter for him to come and beat her up, but her mother couldn't find her even if she came.

However, Feng Qing thought about it over and over in the inn but couldn't figure out what happened to the big brother. But when Li Qi came back and saw that the ring on her hand was missing, she subconsciously asked, "Boss, where is the ring you had before?"

"Huh? I just gave it away." Feng Qing said calmly.

Li Qi was shocked at the time.

Just gave it away?

That thing was a ring that the defecting disciples of the Tang Sect used to pay for their rooms when they came to seek refuge. It was a status symbol for Tang Sect disciples. By slightly pressing a switch somewhere, the ring would turn into an extremely sharp dagger.

In terms of value and meaning, the ring was a very remarkable thing, although it was nothing compared to the "room fees" of the inn.

Li Qi thought about it, but didn't say anything. He thought that the shopkeeper said he was just giving it away, but he probably didn't mean it casually.

The matter of the ring was so easily revealed. Compared with the ring, Li Qi was more concerned about another thing that the shopkeeper mentioned casually.

"Shopkeeper, where have you been these days?" Li Qi asked casually while packing the shopkeeper's luggage. He realized that the shopkeeper might have gone to a far place, because she had a feeling that only comes from a long journey. The shopkeeper

combed her hair with her hands, and after listening to Li Qi's question, she said lightly, "I went home to take a look..."

"Go home?" Li Qi paused slightly when he heard this.

"Yes, go home." The shopkeeper glanced at Li Qi and said, "I have to go back to take a look. If I don't go home during the New Year, it won't be meaningful."

Li Qi didn't know why the shopkeeper said this so naturally, as if she was talking about a problem that was not controversial at all. However, what Li Qi knew was that the shopkeeper should have no family a long time ago.

At least she was gone at this time two hundred years ago.

The shopkeeper seemed to have no idea what Li Qi was thinking. She said lazily, "It's actually quite tiring. I haven't had any free time these days. I've been to many places, all of which I used to go to. Oh, and I also went to a grave. Burning paper is really different now than before."

Feng Qing's family has the habit of burning paper during the New Year. She shuddered when she thought of being dragged up at four in the morning, and then walking a long distance, changing cars and reversing along the way to burn paper.

These days, people still pay attention to burning green paper. In the past, burning paper at a random intersection would be punished, so Feng Qing and his family had to travel long distances every time. It was really a very tiring activity that could show filial piety.

After she finished speaking, she wanted to ask Li Qi if they had burned paper money in the guest house. After all, although Li Qi had never said who his parents were, it didn't mean that he really didn't miss his family.

Feng Qing didn't care about this. She thought that if they didn't burn paper money, they could burn it tonight. As a result, she turned around and saw Li Qi staring at her, as if he wanted to see something from her face.

"What's wrong?" Feng Qing was a little confused, "Do I look strange?"

"No, nothing." Li Qi seemed to come to his senses after being asked by Feng Qing, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "I'll go downstairs to cook first."

He didn't look at Feng Qing again, but took the big bag of luggage that Feng Qing packed and went downstairs. Feng Qing looked at Li Qi's receding back, and always felt strange. She thought that this child might have gone a little stupid after the New Year.

She put away the food and clothes her mother brought for her, and then thought about looking down from the upstairs, but suddenly she was stunned.

Huh? Why did the pastry shop downstairs change after the New Year? And it was also replaced by a tailor shop.

It's amazing. The dress hanging at the door is quite nice. Feng Qing is not exaggerating. She has been in ancient times for so long, and the clothes she sees people wearing are more or less not as good as the plastic Hanfu she bought from Taobao for a hundred yuan.

But the shop downstairs is different.

The dress hanging at the door is an autumn-scented dress with beautiful butterflies and maple leaves embroidered on it, and some of the skirts are particularly large.

After Feng Qing took a few glances, she retracted her eyes and continued to eat her snacks.

She didn't take it seriously, but just thought in her heart that if the clothes in the tailor shop opposite were so beautiful, then she could go there to take a look if she had the chance, wouldn't it save a lot of money on buying clothes?

The longest vacation of the year ended just like that, and when Feng Qing came back, he finally got some good news.

An Huo woke up.

But when she woke up, her mind didn't seem to be very clear, and she forgot a lot of important things. No matter what happened during the attack or what she had investigated before, she still had a headache from time to time.

"Do you still remember that you didn't get paid this month?"

The accountant sat beside An Huo Shaxi's bed and said to her gently.

"I remember."

"Tsk."

"Well, she should have accidentally inhaled some drugs when she fainted, so she is like this." Feng Xiruo said with a frown after taking An Huo Shaxi's pulse.

He turned his head to look at the people in the inn, and then looked around and said, "I can get the antidote for this drug through my connections, but the Huacilou now..."

He hadn't finished his words.

However, everyone had already understood the unfinished meaning of his words.

——Under the pressure of the moment, almost all the sects in the martial arts world are avoiding the sharp edge. The few sects that want to resist have also encountered similar things as Hua Chaodu and An Huo Shaxi before.

The power of the spy planted in the moment is indeed stronger than people can imagine. Chu Changzui is definitely well aware of this. Even his junior brother who has been with him for many years has betrayed his master. Even Chu Changzui is a little scared when he mentions this matter now.

Hua Ci Lou is relatively one of the more stable sects. At least the owner of the building was only injured, but not dead. Compared with other sects, it is really not a heavy casualty.

Therefore, everyone in the inn understood that if the news that the owner of Huacilou had a "fuzzy memory after being injured" got out, it would cause a huge shock in the underworld.

Huacilou now almost supports half of the underworld intelligence business. Once exposed, the danger would be almost the same as the danger when Huachaodu got into trouble some time ago.

On the other hand, their Wuming Inn, although there have been constant storms for so long, now it seems to be a relatively peaceful place in the underworld.

Although the shopkeeper never takes the initiative to target anyone, everyone knows that Wuming Inn is relatively safe.

Therefore, over time, various "idle people" gradually gathered around the inn.

...

When these idle people were mentioned, the staff of the inn looked at each other at the same time.

After all, if they were not mentioned, it would be fine. Once they were mentioned, there would be endless things to talk about.

These idle people... It would be better to say that they are a group of strange guys than idle people.

After all, the mainstream voice in the underworld is critical of the Wuming Inn and the owner of the inn. Most people in the underworld will avoid the Wuming Inn to prevent any relationship with it.

However, there happened to be a group of strange guys who quietly came to this town amidst the noise, bought a small shop here, and then started their business with peace of mind.

This group of idle people had different identities and personalities, and even some scary guys were hiding in the inn or around the inn.

So some very strange guys gradually appeared in this small town. Although some of them did not live in the inn, they were all familiar faces in the inn.

And some shops around the inn slowly changed their bosses.

The original residents of the town gradually discovered that some of the new bosses of these shops looked kind, while some looked weird.

Some of them have long scars on their faces, some are taciturn and don't even know how to greet customers. As soon as you enter their store, you can feel the cold wind, and some people even see a long dragon on the back of a boss.

However, every time a store like this opens, the employees in the inn will bring some gifts to "visit" out of courtesy, so everyone has been safe for so long.

"Before An Huoshaxi gets better, let's take turns to accompany her every night until the antidote comes back?" Li Qi looked at the employees of the inn and asked them for their opinions.

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from outside the door.

"What fun things are you discussing? Can I come and play?" Feng Qing, who knew nothing, pushed the door and walked in.

She was quite curious when she saw the sneaky looks of these guys from the surveillance.
