The restaurant was empty, and Zhao and his five companions immediately attracted the attention of the shopkeeper as soon as they walked in.

"Sir, sir, there are five of you in total? Are you staying or eating?"

"Stay." Zhao replied.

Looking around, he took out some silver from his pocket and put it on the counter, then said, "Five upper rooms, facing the street."

Hearing "five rooms", the shopkeeper was immediately delighted, and hurriedly walked out of the counter to personally greet the five people upstairs, "Okay, five upper rooms facing the street, I'll take you up."

"Okay."

Following the shopkeeper upstairs, Zhao observed his surroundings and ignored the shopkeeper's hospitality. He didn't come back to his senses until the door slowly opened.

He handed the shopkeeper a few taels of silver and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, we have been traveling all night and are very hungry. Please send a table of food up."

After taking the silver, the shopkeeper smiled even more, "Please wait for a moment, the food will be served soon."

After the shopkeeper left, Zhao turned around and said to the four people: "Pick a room, and leave someone to guard the night."

"Okay." The four people said in unison.

After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Brother, we have been tired all night and need to rest, so don't send out a signal today."

Liu Zhiyuan responded while untying his bamboo hat, "Okay."

Soon, the food was served. The five people were not polite, each holding chopsticks and gobbling, and the food on the table was soon swept away.

After eating and drinking, the five people went back to their rooms to rest. It was Baihu who was guarding the night tonight, so the others were not polite either. They washed up casually and couldn't wait to go to bed to rest.

It was raining outside the window, refreshing and pleasant, and it was very comfortable to sleep. When Zhao Jue opened his eyes again, it was already noon the next day. He had a good sleep!

After washing up casually, Zhao Jue went downstairs with the four people to fill their stomachs. The five people sat by the window, drinking and eating leisurely. The rain outside the window gradually subsided, no longer pouring like last night.

The wine was warm and the food was hot. Zhao Jue didn't have to keep watch tonight. He simply took a bite of meat and a sip of wine, which was very comfortable.

After drinking the wine in the glass, he breathed out comfortably, smacked his mouth, and was very calm. From time to time, he turned his head to look out the window. There were few pedestrians on the street, and few could be seen for a long time.

Occasionally looking across the street, Zhao Jue was immediately attracted by the lanterns under the eaves opposite: there were six circles on the white lanterns, three on the left and three on the right, the two on the top were green, and the four on the bottom were all red.

Isn't this... the six barrels in mahjong!

Zhao Jue was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the four people with his peripheral vision. After finding that their expressions did not change, he slowly turned his head and then concentrated on eating and drinking.

After having a good meal and a good drink, Zhao picked up the teacup and smiled as he drank tea: "I'm going out to buy something. You guys stay in the restaurant and be extra careful. I feel something is wrong in the city."

After mentioning that something was wrong in the city twice, Qinglong couldn't help but become more serious. He nodded carefully and replied: "Don't worry, we have enough rest and can see more carefully."

"That's good." Zhao nodded.

After returning to the room, Zhao didn't rest. Instead, he walked to the window, opened a crack, and concentrated on observing every move across the street.

After more than half an hour, there was nothing special except a few people walking across the street.

"You are so cautious, damn it, if you don't show up, I don't know if it's you!" Zhao gritted his teeth and cursed a few words, and sighed helplessly.

"It seems that I still have to go there, but I don't know if I can find anything."

After closing the window, Zhao sat leisurely by the window, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, sipping it. At this time, the door was pushed open, and Liu Zhiyuan squeezed into the room mysteriously. He smiled when he saw that only Zhao Jue was there.

He walked to Zhao Jue and sat down, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, when can we send out the signal? I'm afraid that if it takes too long, those people behind me will lose track."

After a little thought, Zhao Jue said decisively: "Let's wait until tomorrow, let Baihu have a good rest for a day, and we can have more guarantees."

Hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan nodded, "Then let's talk about it tomorrow, it's better to be cautious."

The two did not talk about these heavy topics anymore. They each held tea and chatted about leisure and family matters.

At the end of the You hour, the two went downstairs to eat. After eating and drinking, Zhao Jue said something to a few people and turned to go outside.

The rain continued, but fortunately the shopkeeper had extra umbrellas, so Zhao Jue borrowed one, held the umbrella to avoid the rain, and went all the way to the streets and alleys.

After walking through several streets, he still couldn't find the coffin shop. Zhao Jue rubbed his hands that were slightly numb from holding the umbrella and shook his head.

"Damn it, this Luzhou is so unfamiliar, it's not easy to find a coffin shop!"

With a bitter smile and a few complaints, Zhao patiently searched the streets one by one.

Finally, he found a familiar coffin shop in a small alley.

Looking around, Zhao quickened his pace and walked over with an umbrella. He raised his hand and knocked on the door, and soon a voice came from inside, "Sir, are you buying coffins or funeral objects?"

Hearing this, Zhao smiled, finally found it! He knocked on the door three times in a hurry and responded, "Buy coffins, buy coffins for people in the mountains and soil, and funeral objects require golden boys and jade girls, thousand-mile horses and oxen for plowing the land!"

After the words were spoken, the door was opened, and a wealthy middle-aged man stuck his head out and asked, "Family?"

"I'm from Jiangnan, and I'm the ninth child in my family." Zhao replied.

"Oh, you're going to take the exam, I wish you the top scorer in the imperial examination!" The middle-aged man smiled and stepped aside to make way.

Zhao Jue didn't hesitate, he put away his umbrella and walked into the coffin shop. After throwing the umbrella aside, he turned around and asked anxiously: "Where is he? Not here?"

The middle -aged people closed the door first, and then shouted in the room: "The shopkeeper, some people buy the golden boy and jade girl!"

"I know, I know."

The familiar voice in the house came, and Zhao nodded, pulled a chair and sat down, and joked inside, "Can you still move? Do you want me to go in and help you?"

"Hey your boy!"

The curtain was picked, and six fingers walked out with a smile, twice, and said, "I haven't seen it for so long, my mouth is still so poor, I haven't changed at all!"

"Jiangshan is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to move." Zhao could hear the joke between words and mocked himself.

Sixth finger is not too poor, pull over the chair and sit next to Zhao, and ask softly, "Did you see that lantern?"

"Seeing it, otherwise how could you come here? It is really not good -looking for you to paint these six tube." Zhao said angrily.

"I haven't learned it again, it's not easy to draw like that!" He didn't matter about Zhao's unreasonable stabbing.

Hesitating, he opened the door directly to see the mountain, "Lao Jiu, this time it is really a big deal!"

"What big deal? There are many people who want to kill Liu Zhiyuan?" Zhao frowned, puzzled.

Oh! Six -finger hummed, "Two mountain villages, two inn, and ghost markets have received business. Just this, haven't finished, the wind on the rivers and lakes is full of wind!"

He heard Zhao's eyes suddenly. He thought about it, and there would be no less, but I did not expect that there was more to that.

"You didn't lie to me? Will it ..."

"so much?!"
