Looking at the signboard of "Yelai Inn", Jiang Li asked Shi Qingjue.

"Boss, is this inn a chain? Why have I seen several inns with this name?"

"correct."

"It really is?"

"Legend has it that there was a powerful man who was very powerful. He was number one in the martial arts world and later became the emperor. He also made many reforms to the martial arts world. One of them was the Yuelai Inn. He stipulated that there must be some inns open in the wild. , and to be safe, call it Yuelai Inn. The court does not tax this kind of inn, so make sure someone is willing to open it."

After hearing the explanation, Jiang Li nodded. This solved a big mystery in her mind.

He Qingfeng next to him said again.

"But it's a pity, that was hundreds of years ago. Today's Yuelai Inn is just a means of evading taxes, with mixed results. There are good ones, but there are also many shady ones."

When they entered the inn, they went upstairs to rest for a while.

They had already eaten lunch on the carriage and they were not very hungry yet, but they had already been on their way early this morning and they needed enough rest.

When I woke up, it was already Youshi, which was also the time to eat.

There should be an empty dining table downstairs, so they sat down to eat.

Before the food was even served, they asked for a bottle of wine.

After drinking, Jiang Li thought about it, a little dissatisfied, and said to He Qingfeng.

"It's not as good as your wine."

"Nonsense, that's Jinghu Spring. A jar costs fifty taels. So you drink it as water. My elder brother is still spoiling you and brought you several jars this time."

He Qingfeng said angrily.

Shi Qingjue said to Jiang Li again.

"Then open a jar and drink it today. If you leave it there, you won't know when it will be finished."

"Am I like that kind of person?"

Jiang Li said, taking out a jar of wine from the storage space and placing it on the table.

This wine is much better than the wine in the inn. As soon as the jar was opened, the aroma of the wine attracted many people nearby.

But none of these people dared to come and ask. The escort agency is afraid that there is fraud, ordinary people are worried about being beaten, and the few people in the world can't lose face.

Except for one.

A person comes through the door.

This man looked like a lean old man, using a cane. His hair was not long and was combed back, exposing the Mediterranean Sea.

His appearance is not ugly, but he is not kind either, making people less likely to want to get close to him.

It's just that now it's not whether others want to get close to him, but he wants to get close to others.

He approached Jiang Li and his group.

After arriving, he also pointed directly at the jar of wine. He smelled the wine jar, then smiled and nodded.

"Twenty-one years of Jinghu Spring, good stuff."

"You can smell it just by smelling it?"

Yuzhulin was a little surprised. What kind of alcoholic is this?

After hearing this, the old man laughed twice more.

"Not only can I smell what kind of wine it is, I can also tell where it was buried and how long it took it to be taken out."

"Tell me?"

"That old man, I have to taste it before I know."

Several people looked at the old man and realized that he just wanted to drink.

Shi Qingjue asked the waiter to get another bowl, asked the old man to sit next to him, and poured him a bowl.

"Then we'll treat you to a bowl of wine."

The old man picked up the bowl of wine, looked at Shi Qingjue, laughed, and then asked him.

"Do you think, old man, I'm just drinking to get you a drink?"

"I think you just stepped outside and the wine bug got hooked."

Jiang Li said this, but the old man didn't look angry and said to Jiang Li again.

"What you said is absolutely right. Wine, to you, it is wine, to me, old man, it is life."

After finishing the bowl of wine in front of him, the old man wiped his mouth with satisfaction.

Then, he took out the wine gourd from his waist.

"I don't want to drink the wine of you juniors for nothing, but I haven't drank Jinghu Chun for a long time, and this is the best wine for twenty-one years. In exchange, old man, I will also give you a taste of my wine."

As soon as the old man opened the wine gourd, Jiang Li smelled a scent.

She quickly picked up the bowl, planning to finish it first and then drink the old man's wine.

But this time, he was stopped by the old man.

"Old man, I still can't bear to give you five a bowl each. Just drink this wine."

As he spoke, the old man poured a little wine into the bowls of each of the five people.

Jiang Li hasn't seen anyone stingier than him for a long time.

He Qingfeng sniffed his wine doubtfully, only to find that the aroma of the wine had changed.

Seeing He Qingfeng's surprised expression, several others quickly took a sniff. If someone still says that this flavor is Jinghu Spring, they are absolutely stupid.

Jiang Li picked it up and took a sip. He felt that this wine was much better than Jinghu Chun. It is sweet and not irritating in the mouth, soft and fragrant, with endless aftertaste.

The last time I drank a wine of this level, I took a sip of the King Kong Indestructible Leopard.

But now, the old man just poured a sip of wine and changed the whole bowl of wine.

Seeing their surprised looks, the old man laughed again.

"Liquor, like the country, is always at war. As a wine, I am like the elite of the elite, the God of War. As soon as I enter your wine, I will kill your wine and occupy your place."

"This doesn't sound like earthly wine."

Jiang Li said something.

This fact is really counter-intuitive, and it can only be a matter for immortal cultivators.

The old man didn't say anything, put the gourd back, said thank you to a few people, left the inn, and continued walking.

Jiang Li looked at the man and couldn't figure out where he came from.

When they drink Jinghu Chun again, Jinghu Chun is still the same, but now it always feels like something is missing.

Shi Qingjue put down the bowl.

"Drinking that good wine is not a good thing. I'll probably have to think about it in the future."

Yu Zhulin looked at the wine and then punched himself in the head.

When everyone was surprised, Yu Zhulin drank the bowl of wine again and nodded.

"Okay, I've forgotten it."

"What are you made of?!"

Jiang Li couldn't understand again.

With a photographic memory, she really couldn't appreciate the ability to selectively forget.

The other four people also tried it, but to no avail.

After one night, several people went on the road again.

Different from the previous road, you need to pass through a valley to get to Skanda City.

The valley looked lifeless, with no green in sight. As the carriage walked, Jiang Li looked outside.

"Generally speaking, there will be some kind of treasure hidden in this kind of valley."

"How come I haven't heard of it?"

Shi Qingjue also asked, and Jiang Li continued without looking back.

"Because this kind of place is very suitable for hiding things."

"Hide things usually in caves, right?"

Shi Qingjue reminded her, and Jiang Li changed it.

"That's what I said wrong. This kind of place should be an ambush. For example, there is a march, and then stones are placed here."

As Jiang Lizheng was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of rolling boulders.

He Qingfeng was driving in front and shouted at them.

"The rock has slipped! Sit tight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the speed of the car became faster, and there was the sound of boulders passing by their car and then hitting the valley on the other side.

Jiang Li slapped his mouth, blaming himself for being crow-like.

Just as several people were holding on to the car, the car suddenly stopped again. Shi Qingjue lost his grip and flew into the air, but was pulled back by Yu Zhulin and Tieniu.

The one who stopped the carriage was naturally He Qingfeng. He turned around and said to several people at this time.

"There are rocks blocking the road ahead."

"Then go down and move the rocks."

Just as Yu Zhulin said this, Jiang Li saw a line of blue words in front of him.

"It has been detected that someone nearby is hostile to the host."

"There are enemies! Everyone, be careful!"

As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Shi Qingjue immediately said to Tieniu.

"Take out the shield and hold it on!"

Where would enemy attacks come from in such a valley?

An attack that does not come from a high place shows that the enemy is a group of idiots.

Tieniu took out the shield, which he had been carrying on his back.

Waiting for the attack in the carriage is simply waiting to die, because you can't see the direction of the attack at all. The three masters of the cottage might be able to identify their position by listening to the sound, or they might be able to react and block with weapons when an attack breaks through the carriage.

But for these five, it's still too early.

Jiang Li's Qinggong and reaction were the fastest. She went out with her shield and stood on top of the carriage. Several other people also came out, but because there were no suitable obstacles, they could only stand around the carriage with weapons in hand.

Just as Jiang Li stood up, countless arrows fell from the sky like raindrops. Some of the arrows were mixed with flames. Their purpose was very pure, just to kill these five people.

Seeing this, Jiang Li took out the hourglass. No matter how many arrows they rain, they won't be able to last for a minute. If they can last for a minute, I'm afraid the regular army will have to come and annihilate them.

Jiang Li's purpose was not to block all the arrows, what she wanted was just to keep a few of them from getting hurt. When the arrow lands on the shield, it loses all kinetic energy and no longer poses any threat. Jiang Li couldn't feel any impact while holding the shield. All he felt was the weight of the shield, so it wasn't strenuous.

Half a minute later, the arrow rain stopped. Jiang Li also put away the hourglass and swallowed the mouthful of blood he wanted to spit out before getting out of the car.

The few people below originally thought that Jiang Li might have been negligent and missed one or two arrows, but that didn't happen at all. They just saw Jiang Li moving at a much faster speed than usual, and could barely see the figure.

Just as Yu Zhulin was about to ask something, Shi Qingjue stopped her.

"Let's talk about it after it's over, someone is coming."

Sure enough, a group of people also swung the rope from the mountain and slid down. There were a large number of them, about thirty or ten people, and they were all fully equipped. They came down with a crossbow in one hand and a rope in the other.

But for He Qingfeng, this was a living target.

The concealed weapon I just made at home is put to use now.

For a moment, hidden weapons flew towards the people who came down like flying stars, but those people were already prepared. They took out small shields on their arms and blocked most of the attacks. There were only two people who fell from a high place without blocking.

After everyone came down, they discovered that there were acquaintances here.

Bone Crusher.

In Macheng, Yuzhulin had broken all the limbs of the Bone Crusher Demon, but that was already more than half a month ago. Now the Bone Crusher Demon is able to move, and its limbs are tied with iron tools for protection and fixation.

When they saw this person, they knew that this was another money gang.

Shi Qingjue felt a little regretful.

"Should I have killed all those people in the first place?"

"Looking at them like this, even if they are killed, they will probably be traced to us."

He Qingfeng said this, meaning that Shi Qing should never blame himself so much.

Jiang Li stood up again and shouted to the Bone-Smashing Demon over there.

"Can't you guys just calm down a little bit?"

"We, the Money Gang, will never give up until you are punished as you deserve!"

Jiang Li felt that what the Bone Crusher said sounded very much like an indomitable and upright character.

Yuzhulin also walked forward.

"Then I'll break your bones again."

She had just taken a few steps when Jiang Li saw a hidden weapon coming towards the jade bamboo forest.

"careful!"

As soon as Jiang Li said the words, the hidden weapon had already arrived in front of Yuzhu Lin.

"Ding!"

Another hidden weapon flew from behind Yuzhu Lin and hit the hidden weapon, saving him.

Yuzhulin also reacted at this time and quickly retreated. Jiang Li raised the shield again.

Seeing this scene, the Bone Crusher Demon was very proud.

"I know you guys are very powerful, but our Money Gang has nothing but plenty of money. Here are all top-notch killers we hired, and I don't believe we can't kill you guys who are just starting out!"

After the Bone-Breaking Demon finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the remaining thirty or so people rushed over.

Jiang Li and the others knew only too well how much a top-notch expert could stand up to an ordinary person.

Thirty first-class killers, let alone these five people, it is possible to destroy a sect. After all, there are only four or five first-class figures in the general sect.

Even with the magic weapon in hand, they fought very hard this time. Jiang Li threw his shield to Yuzhulin, because Yuzhulin had no suitable weapons. But this is no longer a matter of weapons. Even with a long sword, Shi Qingjue could hardly withstand the attacks of four or five people. He Qingfeng's hidden weapons never stopped, and he no longer worried about whether he would hurt his own people. , just try to block the enemy's attacks as much as possible.

The dagger Jiang Li was holding was also broken and could no longer be struck. Immediately afterwards, another slash hit Jiang Li's dagger, and the dagger was completely broken.

Jiang Li simply threw away the dagger, took out the hidden thread that He Qingfeng had used when he was casting the new hidden thread, and used his speed and hourglass to try to tie up those people's bodies.

This move was very effective. Her movement skills were top-notch, and with the addition of the hourglass, no one could catch Jiang Li.

But Jiang Li's weakness is time.

When one minute was up, Jiang Li's physical strength reached its limit. She couldn't help but fall to the ground and vomited a mouthful of blood.

Although nine people have been tied up, and the tough hidden thread will make those nine people cut by the hidden thread if they make any move, there are still many people left.

When a knife came towards Jiang Li again, it was stopped by a cane.

Immediately afterwards, the cane seemed to be alive again, hitting several people around him flexibly. Judging from the flinching of those people, every blow was a heavy blow.

Then, like a monkey, the owner of the cane attacked several people. Either a grab, a chokehold, or a kick. Just looking at the movement, this monkey seems to be drunk.

The pressure was reduced, and the other four people were able to resist. The killers also stepped back together, trying to see clearly who was attacking them.

And the drunk monkey also stopped at this time.

Jiang Li spit out the blood and wiped it before looking back at the man.

That's who drank their wine last night.
