C599 There Was a Reason Behind It

Du Qi said, "There are four gentlemen in Hundred Flower Palace: Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum. They are in charge of Plum Blossom Temple, Fragrant Orchid Pavilion, Bamboo Shrine, and Chrysanthemum Pavilion. They are in charge of gathering information and training people. Their abilities can be imagined."

Ning Jing said worriedly, "Since they want to deal with us, they won't let us leave easily. What should we do?"

Du Qi smiled casually and said, "Of course we have to go to Plum Blossom Temple for a stroll!"

Ning Jing said in surprise, "Young Master knows that this is a trap, so why did you throw yourself into it?"

Du Qi said, "From all the signs, it shows that we are heading in the right direction. Luo Changhe is just ahead, and he might still be in Plum Blossom Temple. If I don't go, wouldn't I have lost the chance to capture Luo Changhe?"

Ning Jing said, "If I don't enter the tiger's den, I won't get the tiger's cub! Young master's courage is commendable, but will he lose something big because of a small matter? "

Du Qi smiled and said, "That's why I want to entrust Miss Ning to that Uncle Zhong."

Ning Jing said bitterly, "At this moment, Young Master still has the mood to joke?"

Du Qi said seriously, "Who is joking? There is no time to lose. Let's go to the Zhong Family immediately!"

Seeing that Du Qi's expression did not seem to be fake, Ning Jing could not help being surprised. She said in a panic, "Since young master knows that Zhong has malicious intentions, why did you tell him our whereabouts clearly?"

Du Qi smiled and said, "That is why I have to leave this place as soon as possible. If Miss Ning is not willing to go with us, there is no harm in staying in the inn!"

Ning Jing suddenly jumped up and shouted, "Since young master knows that this place is not suitable to stay for long, why do you still think that it is inappropriate to stay here for long? You better hurry up, ah... "

"Bang, bang!" Two clear and deep sounds were suddenly heard. Ning Jing was shocked when she heard it. She hurriedly swallowed back the words that she wanted to say. She screamed and jumped into Du Qi's arms again. Du Qi could not help but sigh about his bad luck, but he smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. This is the sound of knocking!"

Ning Jing had just jumped up, but she could tell what the sound was. However, she could not stop in her haste, and continued to throw herself into Du Qi's arms as per her original intention. At this moment, she hurriedly let go of Du Qi and scolded him, "Young master is so bad. You didn't tell Ning Jing earlier even though you knew it was a knock on the door. He made Ning Jing lose face again!"

Du Qi smiled and said, "It's okay. I am magnanimous. As long as Miss Ning is happy, she can come and throw herself at me at any time. I will definitely not mind!"

Ning Jing said unhappily," You took advantage of me and still pretended to be good! Are you going to leave or not? "

Du Qi suddenly sighed and said, "Unfortunately, it is already too late for us to leave now."

Ning Jing said in surprise, "What do you mean by this, young master?" Before she finished speaking, another five knocks sounded on the door. Wasn't this the same as the rhythm and method she used to knock on the door? Could this be the secret signal unique to those who came here now? No wonder the shop assistant was so polite just now. He was slightly surprised to see only the two of them. There were definitely more than two of them. These people were so mysterious. Where did they come from? Before he thought about it, he heard a shop assistant mutter, "Strange, why is there another person here today? Little Li, quickly open the door!"

The shop assistant called Little Li was clearly dissatisfied with the other shop assistant's arrangement, but he did not dare to disobey. He could only mutter to himself as he got up and replied, "Come on!"

With that, Little Li ran to the outer room." Ah! "He opened the door and politely greeted," Dear guests, please come in. Do you want to soak your feet first or go back to your rooms to rest? "

A rough voice shouted, "I'm so tired. Hurry up and take us to our rooms!"

Little Li hurriedly said, "Dear guests, follow me. The rooms have already been prepared. I guarantee that the guests will be satisfied!"

Hearing the conversation between Little Li and that person, Du Qi and Ning Jing could not help but look at each other. It turned out that the shop assistant really thought of the two of them as those people who had just arrived. They did not know how they would react when they found out the truth. Before they thought about it, they heard that person say unhappily, "Why did you only come to open the door after so long?"

Little Li quickly smiled and said, "Sir, please calm down. I overslept and woke up a little slower. Sir, please forgive me."

That person's mood seemed to be somewhat bad as he snorted coldly and unrelentingly. Kid, it's easy for you to say. Forgive me? Kid, how can you ask me to forgive you? "

Another customer advised: "Forget it, we really came a little late, so we can't all blame him."

That person was still somewhat displeased as he shouted, "Hurry up and lead the way, stand there and wait for the reward?"

Little Li did not dare to say anything and hurriedly turned around to lead the way.

When she heard that group of people rushed in, Ning Jing hurriedly extinguished the lights and rushed to the door to look outside. She saw a group of more than ten people following behind an inn worker and rushing into the door.

With the help of the light from the torches in their hands, Ning Jing could see clearly. She saw that there were only four big and big men among the group of people, and the other nine were all women under the age of 20. The youngest was at most four or twenty years old. Although they were wearing coarse clothes, everyone had delicate features and delicate faces, but at this moment, they were dispirited and dispirited. One person followed another and walked in a line.

When they passed by the door, Ning Jing discovered that the women were all tied up by ropes. And the nine of them were tied up together, even though they carefully followed the rules. From time to time, the four men would shout, scold, and even whip them. It didn't look like a public servant escorting a criminal, but rather like a thief robbing a civilian.

What Ning Jing didn't understand was why these four bandits dared to abduct so many women into the inn. Moreover, it seemed like this wasn't the only time. It happened so often that the inn employees weren't surprised, but the residents of the town feared them like tigers. These people were so bold, why was there no one to take care of them?

Thinking of the tragic fate that these girls might face, Ning Jing could not help but feel indignant. Just as she wanted to desperately open the door and rush out to save them, she was pulled by Du Qi. Ning Jing angrily shouted, "What are you doing?"

Seemingly knowing that Ning Jing wanted to speak, Du Qi pulled her and covered her mouth at the same time. Only then did Ning Jing's voice not leak out, but a stout man still sensed it. He stopped and said in surprise, "Why is there a sound here?"

Little Li, who was walking in front, hurriedly turned around and looked at the man. He smiled strangely and said, "It would be strange if men and women squeezed in a room without making any sound!"

The man smiled wickedly and said, "So that's how it is. Humph! Are you making fun of your grandpa?"

Xiao Lizi hurriedly smiled and said, "I wouldn't dare!"

That man said, "I understand that you wouldn't dare either! Quickly leave!" As he spoke, he flew up and kicked a beautiful 16-year-old woman. He cursed, "Motherf * cker, little girl, if you dawdle any longer, you won't listen to me. Do you believe that I'll deal with you later? "
