Chapter 648

"You guys beat me up for not paying for my meal! I'm going to fight you!" The waiter rubbed his red and swollen cheeks and rammed into the young man's waist. {《》

With a thud, he rammed hard, and the young man, who was already unstable, fell forward and knocked over a table.

"Oh, this kid dared to fight back!"

The young man's companions were not happy. One of them grabbed the waiter's clothes and threw him to the ground. Then, everyone surrounded him and kicked and kicked him, making the waiter hold his head and scream.

Just as they were getting excited, several waiters rushed out from the back of the tavern. They stepped forward to stop the fight and shouted, "Stop it, stop it!"

"Hey, help is coming, brothers, fight together!" These young men got drunk and started fighting with the waiters who had just come out.

Neither side knew how to use martial arts, so when they fought, they fought like gangsters, tearing and wrestling each other, rolling all over the floor, clanging and knocking tables all over the floor.

The shopkeeper wanted to stop the fight, but instead of separating the people, he was hit several times, his face was blue and red, and his clothes were torn in several places.

Just as the fight was going on in the restaurant and pedestrians were standing outside the restaurant, the yamen runners in charge of the city's security arrived.

The leader was a burly man who separated the crowd outside, squeezed to the front door of the restaurant, looked inside, and then shouted: "Stop! Stop it all!"

Seeing the yamen runners coming, everyone in the restaurant stopped fighting and stood in two groups. Looking at them again at this time, they all looked like painted faces, and their clothes were torn to shreds, and they looked very embarrassed.

The burly yamen runner walked into the restaurant, his eyes like lightning, sweeping over everyone one by one, and then asked angrily: "What's going on? Why are you fighting here?"

"Sir, they didn't pay for the meal and beat people..."

"Sir, this is a black shop. I only ate a few dishes and a few pots of wine, but they asked me for twelve taels of silver. Sir, twelve taels of silver, that's enough for my whole family to live for half a year..."

"You only brought a hundred copper coins and wanted to eat in the restaurant? You are here to make trouble!"

"Bullshit! If you are not a black shop, the money I brought is enough..."

The burly yamen runner was annoyed by their quarrels, and shouted: "Shut up!" As he spoke, he pointed at the farmers who were fighting The young man dressed as a police officer shouted, "Take them all away!"

"Sir, we are not wrong. If you don't arrest the black shops, how can you arrest ordinary people like us!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" The burly yamen runner scolded angrily, then looked at the shop assistants and asked, "Who is the shopkeeper here?"

"It's me." The shopkeeper squeezed out from the shop assistants and said with a smile on his face, "Sir, this time it is indeed not our fault. I hope you can see clearly."

"Sir, I am investigating a case, and I still allow you to talk too much?" The burly yamen runner glared at him and said, "Shopkeeper, you should also come with us. Once you enter the gate of the Lieutenant's Mansion, the right and wrong will be determined."

"Sir, I...I still have to open the shop. Now...I really can't leave..." The shopkeeper smiled apologetically.

"It won't take up much of your time, take it away!" As he spoke, he shook his head to the yamen runners on his left and right, and then turned and walked out.

"Sir? Sir——" The shopkeeper wanted to speak, but two yamen runners came up to him and held his arms on the left and right.

Lieutenant's Mansion.

The shopkeeper was taken into the Lieutenant's Mansion by the yamen runners, but when he looked for the young men who were brought in with him, they were nowhere to be found.

He was secretly surprised. Logically, this was just a trivial case, and both parties only needed to testify in court. How come he was the only one left now, and those young men who made trouble disappeared?

When he was secretly guessing, there were footsteps. He turned his head and saw two people coming in from outside. He knew both of them, and because of this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The two people who came in were Cheng Jin and Ai Wei.

"Haha, sir, do you think I should call you shopkeeper or Third Master?" Ai Wei spoke first, but his words were like a sharp sword piercing the shopkeeper's heart.

Damn it! His identity was exposed! The shopkeeper reacted immediately. Without even thinking, he pulled out a pill from his belt and put it in his mouth.

He was fast, but someone was even faster. Cheng Jin, who was originally far away from him, appeared in front of him in an instant, grabbed his wrist, snatched the pill from his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, sneering: "Shopkeeper, you just remembered to take the Juling Pill now, isn't it too late?"

The shopkeeper's face suddenly changed, and he screamed and raised his fist to hit Cheng Jin's throat. Before his fist touched Cheng Jin, he heard a click in his earlobe, and the latter had crushed his wrist.

In an instant, the shopkeeper seemed to be struck by lightning, his body shook violently, and then he softened and fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Cheng Jin didn't even look at him, but turned his head and shouted: "Take him away!"

As he spoke, a dark arrow member flashed in front of him, chopped down with a palm knife, and the shopkeeper's screams stopped abruptly.

Then, the secret arrow personnel took out a long black cloth bag, put the unconscious shopkeeper into it, tied the mouth of the bag, slung it on his shoulders, turned around and walked out.

Cheng Jin watched his men leave and said to Ai Wei, "Master Ai, thank you for your help this time!"

"What Xiaguan used was just a small trick. Even if Xiaguan doesn't help, if General Cheng wants to capture him, he will be able to do so."

Ivey said modestly without taking any credit. After a pause, he said with concern: "Although I have captured him, I'm afraid it's not easy to open his mouth!"

"As long as he is in the hands of our hidden arrow, even if he has an iron mouth and copper teeth, we can still make him speak." Cheng Jinxiao asked, "How about it? Master Ai, are you interested in taking a look?"

Iwei really didn't want to go to the Dark Mansion anymore, but the opportunity was too rare. He wanted to take charge of the Lieutenant's Mansion, and he often had to use torture and confession. There were not many opportunities to learn from Dark Arrow's experience. He thought for a moment and then said with a smile: "I would like to thank General Cheng."

"You and I both work for the king, so there's no need to be polite to each other." Cheng Jin is very indifferent to people he doesn't know well, but once he gets acquainted, he is still very easy-going. Therefore, Cheng Jin, who was cold and ruthless in the eyes of others, was too soft-hearted in Tang Yin's eyes.

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious before the shopkeeper faintly woke up. He slowly opened his eyes and found that he had been tied to a chair, with his wrists tied to the handle and his feet tied to the legs of the chair.

He looked down at his wrist, which was red and swollen and almost twice as thick as before. Seeing the broken wrist, a heart-piercing pain immediately swept over him, and he couldn't help but let out a low groan.

"Are you awake?" A young man wearing black brocade clothes and a blood-red cloak was sitting opposite him, looking at him with a smile.

The shopkeeper was startled and looked up quickly. After looking at each other for a moment, he looked around again.

Here is a stone room with various instruments of torture placed around it. The torches on the wall emit a faint light, and the air is filled with the smell of blood.

"What...what is this place? Who are you...?" I don't know whether it was because the stone room was too cold or because everything around was too scary. The shopkeeper shivered and looked at the young man opposite with a pale face.

The young man stood up straight, first carefully adjusted his clothes, then straightened the cloak on his back and the saber under his ribs, and then said slowly: "This is a secret house, and as for me, I'm just an unknown pawn in a secret arrow." , you can call me Gao Mucheng. By the way, so far, I am the only light spiritual cultivator in Dark Arrow." He couldn't hide the look of pride on his face as he spoke.

Dark house? It's over, I'm actually at the base of the hidden arrow!

The shopkeeper's heart felt cold, but there was still a panicked look on his face, and he stammered: "Master, this...is there a misunderstanding? I'm just the shopkeeper of Sanyuan Restaurant, and he abides by the law. Never commit any crime..."

"Shh!" Gao Mucheng walked up to the shopkeeper, raised his index finger and made a silent gesture to him, then smiled softly: "You don't have to say anything, let's do something very novel and interesting. Bar!"

He was smiling, but when his smile fell into the shopkeeper's eyes, a chill arose from his bones.

Gao Mucheng leisurely took a small knife from the side, wiped the blade clean carefully with his sleeve, and then, without warning, made a small cut on the back of the shopkeeper's hand.

The small hole was not big, but the shopkeeper still trembled, with a look of fear on his face, and asked in a trembling voice: "You... what on earth are you going to do to me..."

"Shh! Don't talk! It's very interesting." Gao Mucheng threw away the knife, picked up a handkerchief, and carefully wiped off the blood that flowed from the back of the shopkeeper's hand.

Then, he took out a small brocade box from his arms, opened it, and carefully pinched a green bean inside. He moved slowly and cautiously, as if he was afraid of getting Douzi pregnant.

While putting away the brocade box, he asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper, have you ever heard of the Blood Spirit Vine? It's a plant that uses flesh as soil, blood as fertilizer, and spiritual energy as a source of growth. It's magical, isn't it?"

As he spoke, he slowly shook the green beans in his hand in front of the shopkeeper's eyes and said, "Don't underestimate this little bean. It is the seed of the Blood Spirit Vine. It is priceless and hard to find."

The shopkeeper's face turned from white to green, then from green to gray, and he screamed: "What are you going to do to me? What on earth are you going to do?"

"Don't argue, don't argue, save some energy, otherwise, you will be so painful that you can't scream later, which will be boring, and it will be a waste of such a precious seed." As he spoke, Gao Mucheng held the seed in his hand. Aomame slowly placed it on the gap on the back of his hand.
