Chapter 290: Assassination at the Inn
After the innkeeper showed everyone to the room, he walked out with a smile on his face and a very respectful attitude!
"Eighth sister, there's something wrong with this person. She's got murderous intent and is a smiling tiger. Don't actually eat the food she prepared, but pretend to take a few bites to let her guard down. I want to see what tricks she can come up with tonight!"
As soon as Wan Qingyan entered the room, he took Wan Qingyu and A Nian's hands and whispered something to them.
"Fifth sister, I understand. If she dares to seek death tonight, I will personally send her to hell!"
Wan Qingyu curled her lips into a smile, the murderous intent in her eyes almost overflowing, she was already looking forward to the arrival of the night.
A Nian, who was standing by, also nodded seriously, indicating that he understood, and gripped his sword tightly.
"Fifth sister, go and explain this to the people below so they can be mentally prepared!"
Wan Qingyan touched his chin and gave Wan Qingyu another instruction.
Wan Qingyu nodded very obediently and replied, "Okay, don't worry, Fifth Sister, I'll do it right away!" After that, she turned around and left in a hurry!
Wan Qingyu always obeys Wan Qingyan's orders. No matter what Wan Qingyan tells her to do, she will do it without hesitation and never have any doubts.
Even if Wan Qingyan told her to die at this moment, she would firmly believe that Wan Qingyan would be able to find a way to bring her back to life!
In this way, time passed quickly, and before they knew it, the sky had gradually darkened. Wan Qingyan and his group came to the first floor one after another to enjoy dinner!
The shopkeeper saw Wan Qingyan and his group coming from afar, and her face, which was already full of smiles, instantly smiled even brighter. Then, she hurriedly trotted forward and warmly invited everyone to take a seat!
After everyone was seated, the shopkeeper not only personally served them a variety of delicious dishes, but also introduced the restaurant's special dishes to them from time to time.
After all the dishes were served, the shopkeeper kindly told them to eat more, and then he slowly retreated to the corner in silence.
However, she did not leave, but stood quietly in the corner, her eyes always on Wan Qingyan and others, silently watching them eat heartily, fearing that they did not eat enough!
"Boss, the dishes have all been served. There's nothing for you to do here. Please leave first. We have something to discuss internally!"
As Wan Qingyan spoke, he glanced at the shopkeeper calmly from the corner of his eye. Seeing her cunning look, he immediately ordered her to leave. If she stayed here, it would only cause trouble!
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy your meal! I will be leaving now."
Despite being ordered to leave, the shopkeeper's face was still filled with a fawning smile, and she was not affected at all. However, the moment she turned to leave, a barely perceptible ruthlessness flashed across her eyes.
However, this hint of cruelty only flashed by, so fast that it was almost impossible to catch. But who was Wan Qingyan? She was not a pushover. Even if it was just a moment, it was enough for her to notice something was wrong!
After the shopkeeper's figure completely disappeared from his sight, Wan Qingyan immediately put the chopsticks in his hand on the table and his face became solemn!
In fact, as early as when these dishes were served, she had already sensed the hidden trick in them just by taking a light sniff. Someone had secretly put a knockout drug in the dishes, and it was not an ordinary knockout drug, but a powerful one!
Thinking of this, Wan Qingyan couldn't help but sneer. She originally thought that the shopkeeper was looking for money, but it seems that she not only wants money but also wants to kill people. And judging from her proficiency, this is probably not her first time!
"You two, eat these dishes. You don't have to finish them all, just half of them will be fine. These dishes have been drugged, but don't worry. After taking this pill, you will be fine if you eat these dishes again. You will just have a good sleep. Just sleep tonight, don't worry about anything else!"
Wan Qingyan selected two soldiers and handed each of them a pill. These two people had been to Qingzhou with her and were trustworthy. Without any hesitation, they swallowed the pills directly and began to eat!
The others didn't say anything, just watched the two of them eat in silence. They were not stupid and understood what Wan Qingyan meant!
"Master, is this okay?"
The two soldiers ate with their stomachs full and finished most of the dishes. When they could not eat any more, they hurriedly asked Wan Qingyan for his opinion.
Wan Qingyan also asked her subordinates to call her master in Youzhou.
"Okay, you guys have worked hard."
Wan Qingyan smiled and nodded to the two soldiers, then rewarded them with some silver, which was what they deserved.
"Thank you, Master!"
The two soldiers were delighted when they received the reward.
"You can go out now. Everyone go back to your rooms and rest. You two can come to my room and rest!"
Wan Qingyan walked out first, and the two soldiers followed obediently behind him. The rest of the people also walked out in an orderly manner and returned to their respective rooms!
After everyone had left, the shopkeeper moved to the dining table quietly like a ghost. She saw that the originally full plate of delicious food had been eaten up, with only a few scraps and scattered bowls and chopsticks left on the plate. Suddenly, a chilling grin appeared on her face!
"Fifth sister, when do you think the shopkeeper will make his move? I'm getting tired of waiting, but those two are sleeping soundly, their snoring is deafening!"
While complaining to Wan Qingyan, Wan Qingyu supported her chin with one hand and looked at the two soldiers who had taken the knockout drug with a look of despair. At this moment, she was quite envious of them, because at least they slept soundly!
"She's coming! I heard footsteps. There are at least seven or eight people coming!"
A Nian always kept her ears open to listen for any movement. If she noticed anything unusual, she would report it immediately and draw her sword. As long as someone came in, she would take action immediately!
"Fifth sister, Anian, tonight's game is about to begin, have fun!"
Wan Qingyan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a bloodthirsty smile. She hadn't killed people for a long time, and she really missed it!
"it is good."
A Nian and Wan Qingyu also became excited. They looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding.
The shopkeeper, with her men and holding a knife, went straight to Wan Qingyan's room. She could tell at a glance that Wan Qingyan had an extraordinary identity and was going to make a fortune this time!
When she arrived at Wan Qingyan's door, she deliberately leaned against the door to listen for any movement. Only when she heard the snoring coming from inside did she completely relax. She took out the key with a smug look on her face and opened the door.
"Surprise? You lost this game, and I was waiting for you to come!"
