“I also have insects in my room, but not as many as you guys. I want you to help me expel them.”
Su Qing answered without changing her expression. She had already confirmed that the people living in this room were the guards protecting the upper floor, so there was no need to stay there.
“There are bugs in your house, too?”
When he heard that there were bugs in Su Qing’s room and that she kept scratching her arms and neck, the thin man’s suspicion of her lessened.
“Yes, not as much as you, just a little bit, but it still bites.”
Su Qing answered affirmatively. At this time, the waiter returned with a handful of chili powder in his hand and sprinkled it on the worms. Su Qing asked him for some before returning to the room.
The people next door couldn’t sleep. After a whole night, the person in charge of vigilance upstairs also came over to check. When he saw the black bugs, he was so scared that he hurriedly returned.
However, as soon as he left the house, he saw a white shadow. Before he could see clearly, he was bumped by the shadow. On a closer look, it looked like some kind of animal. It had round eyes, three lips, and short arms and legs.
He thought that he could just casually grab it and throw it to the ground to die, but before he could do anything, the animal scratched his face. If he hadn’t dodged in time, he would have been blind.
When he went to catch the animal again, it was already gone, as if it had never appeared.
Who knew what this person was cursing? It did not sound like the language of the Central Plains.
When he went upstairs, he missed his step and fell down the stairs. The waiter was scared out of his wits. It was okay to walk down the stairs every day. Why did it break when he walked?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis person had fallen quite severely. His chin had hit his mouth so hard that it was full of blood. The thin man endured the itch and came out to help him up. The first thing he did was to check the stairs. The stairs looked like they had been stepped on. There were no traces of a knife.
“What bad luck.”
“What happened?”
Two people came out of the room upstairs and stood at the entrance to ask them.
“The stairs are broken.”
The man in charge of guarding hurriedly straightened his body and answered while enduring the sharp pain in his chin. His posture was not that of a Central Plainsman at all. Even the shop assistant had a suspicious look in his eyes.
“Come back quickly.”
The person upstairs stood in the dark and gave a stern order. The person in charge of guarding the place hurriedly went upstairs.
The waiter suppressed the fear in his heart and walked out, pretending not to hear what the person just said.
“What did you hear?”
The thin man stopped the waiter, who yawned.
“Sir, I have already cleared the bugs for you. Let me sleep. I am so sleepy.”
The thin man stared at the waiter. The waiter’s hands were covered in chili, and he was sneezing. Seeing him like this, the thin man let him go.
However, he immediately sent someone to keep an eye on the waiter. As long as he left the inn, he would be killed without mercy.
The person in the room upstairs turned around and went back into the room. When he closed the door, he felt a stranger’s scent in the room. He felt something was wrong and was about to shout when a strange fragrance knocked him out.
Su Qing lit the kerosene lamp in the room with a lighter and squatted on the ground to check on the two people.
They were wearing human skin masks. Su Qing pulled them off and smiled when she saw their faces.
One was the envoy, and the other was probably with them.
She searched the two of them and found the customs clearance documents. Their identities were listed as sea merchants. The identity of the envoy was placed in a deerskin bag. Su Qing put it away, tied the two of them up, and placed them on the bed.
She gently opened the door slightly, and there was a knock on the door downstairs. The person in charge of keeping watch hurriedly looked downstairs. Su Qing took the opportunity to leave the house and let Xiao Qi out when she walked behind the person.
Xiao Qi’s sudden appearance in front of that person frightened him. He pulled out the machete at his waist and slashed Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi looked stupid, but her movements were very agile. She jumped onto his head and scratched the man’s eyes with her two short claws. The man was so scared that he reached out to grab her. Xiao Qi took the opportunity to jump onto his shoulder and kick him downstairs.
When Skinny and the others saw the man fighting with a ghost-like white animal, they came to help. The waiter went to open the door, and Zhong Yong and Little Ding walked in from outside the house while cursing.
Xiao Qi took the opportunity to jump off the man’s shoulder and run out of the door. Zhong Yong saw her and was stunned for a moment. He wanted to chase after Xiao Qi but was pulled back by the guard, Little Ding.
“I’ll go kill it.”
The man who had been lectured by Xiao Qi twice was so exasperated that he wanted to go out and chase after her, but the thin man pulled him back.
“Don’t chase.”
The thin man turned to the waiter and lost his patience. He asked him darkly,
“Buddy, what is that?”
“I don’t know. I was scared to death. Is it a ghost?”
The shop assistant’s face turned pale with fright. They had never seen such a thing in their shop. An animal that looked like that was too scary.
Zhong Yong and the guard, Little Ding, also shouted in surprise,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I’ve heard of that before. It’s a type of monster that only harasses unlucky people.”
The expressions of the thin man and the person in charge of keeping watch kept changing. They didn’t want to believe it, but the appearance of that thing was too strange, especially the kid who was kicked downstairs by Xiao Qi. There was a faint panic in his eyes.
He thought that he was mighty, but when he touched it, it was slippery. How could he grab it? He felt that the thing was cold and the temperature was like ice. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
The thin man stared at the waiter. At this moment, he hoped that they were a black market so that he wouldn’t have to worry.
In the end, he saw the waiter trembling in fear. It was obvious that he had never seen that thing before. Could it be that they had bumped into something unclean?
Upstairs, Su Qing opened the door to the upper room. There was an unpleasant smell of feces and urine in the room. A person was lying on the bed. When she saw someone coming in, she ordered sternly,
“What happened? Why is it?”
This voice?
Su Qing smiled and didn’t say anything. She walked to the bedside and sprinkled some knockout powder on Lanting. She was already paralyzed on the bed, yet she was still stirring up trouble!
Her goal was not Lanting. There was still one room left to search, so she went out and walked towards that room.
The person in charge of security had already returned upstairs. The footsteps upstairs sounded very cautious. They were afraid of the fall.
Su Qing pushed open the door to the private room. A person was lying on the bed. He did not move when she entered. He looked like he was sleeping soundly.
To be safe, Su Qing sprinkled some knockout powder before lighting up the kerosene lamp in the room.
She walked to the bed with the lamp in hand. The boy in charge of guarding outside the room had already returned. He went to knock on the door of the upper room, but no movement in the room aroused his suspicion.
“My lord, my lord.”
This person shouted into the room in the language of the Japanese pirates. Su Qing calmly opened the door. When he heard footsteps, the sentry looked at Su Qing. Before he could see clearly, he was knocked out.
Downstairs, Zhong Yong and her bodyguard, Xiao Ding, were still scaring the thin man. They helped Su Qing drag them away. Su Qing returned to the private room and walked to the bed with the lamp, shining the light on the face of the person on the bed..
