C410 (2/2)
After some thought, she decided not to do this business anymore.
Ever since Wei Qing entered the room, she held her breath, and quietly walked to the door, using her finger to poke a hole in the paper, and secretly observed.
After the Lady Boss and the servants left, Xiao Qingqian was about to pour some wine to stop them.
”There shouldn't be anything strange?”
Wei Qing curled her lips, ”Let me tell you, it's extremely strange!”
Xiao Qingqian frowned his brows. If they had travelled all the way from the desert to here, Xiao Hanqi's men shouldn't have chased them to here.
”Could it be that you're being too cautious?”
”Would you believe me if I told you that this is a human meat bun and that there is sweat medicine in the wine?”
These words made Xiao Qingqian laugh, ”Lang Lang Qiong, where would anyone do such a thing?”
”As the saying goes, the heavens are high and the emperor is far away.” Wei Qing said with a serious face, ”Xiao Qingqian, if you eat this bun, I can guarantee that when you see the bun in the future, you will definitely vomit!”
Seeing that Wei Qing did not seem like she was joking, Xiao Qingqian thought for a while and said, ”Whether or not you are a proper businessman, we will know after it gets dark.”
The reason Wei Qing had agreed to stay was probably to investigate the reason.
Xiao Qingqian looked at her deeply before pouring some of the wine and throwing away a few buns.
The night gradually became darker as Xiao Qingqian and Wei Qing laid on the bed, waiting patiently.
After a while, the sound of clothes rustling could be heard at the door. Borrowing the unclear moonlight outside the window, Wei Qing gave Xiao Qingqian a meaningful glance.
The two of them waited cautiously for the door to be opened by the dagger. They did indeed hear the sound of the door being opened, but it was not their room.
Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian looked at each other, Xiao Qingqian shooed her with his finger, and with light movements, he arrived at the door.
Through the small hole that Wei Qing had pierced, she looked out and saw two servants carrying a sturdy man out from the room opposite them.
Wei Qing also snuck over and made a hand gesture towards Xiao Qingqian.
Xiao Qingqian immediately understood the meaning of Wei Qing's hand gesture just now. They only waited for the two servants to carry them away before leaving the room.
As expected, he saw the two waiters carry him into the kitchen. Wei Qing pouted at Xiao Qingqian, meaning to say: Do you believe what I just said?
Xiao Qingqian nodded.
He was really curious as to how Wei Qing found out that this was a human meat bun, and how she found out that there was a sweat medicine in this wine.
Wei Qing waited for them to start killing and rushed in.
However, he did not hear any movements, nor did he smell any blood stench. Wei Qing was a little puzzled.
She quietly went to the kitchen, but when she did not see the burly man, Wei Qing became even more confused.
”Are the two of you hungry, or what happened? You came to the kitchen in the middle of the night? ”
Wei Qing was startled when she heard the Lady Boss's voice.
Could it be that the Lady Boss had already discovered that she was suspicious of this inn?
That was true. This Lady Boss had a pair of intelligent eyes.
Moreover, they had opened this inn for so many years, yet no one had discovered any clues. They were definitely prepared for this long ago.
Although this person had been carried to the kitchen, he might not necessarily be in there.
Wei Qing quickly looked around. She did not find a secret room, and laughed: ”I am indeed hungry, so I ran over to the kitchen to see if there is anything edible.”
The Lady Boss smiled and said, ”There are still some steamed buns here. Madam, please take them.”
