The chief player of the film and television world

Chapter 525 Dragon Inn
After riding a horse in the desert for a while, Zhang Jin saw a tall flagpole gradually exposed on the horizon where fine sand was often blown by the wind, with a flag hanging on it—Longmen Inn.

"Fortunately, you didn't lie to me." Zhang Jin thought to himself.

When we parted, he was afraid of being cheated by shopkeeper He, so he marked the partner's mark on the other party. Once he couldn't find the Longmen Inn and confirmed that the other party was deceiving him, he immediately followed the position of the partner's mark to find the door to settle the score!
As for whether the other party is dead or alive after the settlement, it depends on the other party's attitude.

But since he found the Longmen Inn, he would naturally take back the partner mark on the other party.

Zhang Jin rode his horse and walked slowly towards the Longmen Inn. As he gradually approached, the entire appearance of the Longmen Inn appeared before his eyes.

The appearance of the Longmen Inn is exactly the same as in the movie, except that the roughness and old damage that has been blown by wind and sand in the desert all year round is more obvious.

The words "Dragon Gate Inn" on the tall flagpole are almost faded to the point where the font cannot be seen clearly, while the lantern next to it has turned a sandy yellow and lost its original color.

Zhang Jin came outside the inn, tied up the horses in the shed, glanced at the many horses and camels beside him, then turned and walked towards the gate of the inn.It can be seen from these camels and horses that there should be caravans staying overnight or resting.

"Guest officer, do you want to stay or eat...to eat?" A guy with a round head and round face greeted him, but when he saw the visitor's clothes, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

"Eat first, and stay for a few days by the way. Is there any room available?" Zhang Jin glanced at the other party. The guy who came was none other than Huang Gang, one of the pioneers in the treasure hunting team in the movie and one of the Pingdingshan trio.

"Yes, sir, please come inside." Huang Gang suppressed the doubts in his heart, pretended to be courteous, took him to an empty table in the store, and asked while cleaning the table, "What do you want to eat?" ?”

Zhang Jin untied the Xiuchun Knife from his waist and put it on the table. He raised his eyes and stared at Huang Gang for a while, until the other party looked a little uneasy, and then asked, "I heard that you have a saying about recruiting immortals and eating to the sky. Yes or no?"

Huang Gang took back the rag that wiped Zhuo: "This... the lord is just joking, I have never heard of the trick of immortal food reaching the sky."

Zhang Jin took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder, and took out a piece of silk cloth from his bosom to wipe it carefully, and said while wiping, "I've never heard of it being the best. It just so happened that I didn't bring chopsticks, so I ate them with chopsticks from your store." Things. I don't want to eat any white meat, and I don't want to be made into white meat, you know what I mean?"

Huang Gang forced a smile and said, "My lord, don't worry, we don't have white meat in our shop, only mutton."

"Very good, then bring me a roast leg of lamb first, the kind that tastes good, and then make me a pot of tea." Zhang Jin put the cleaned chopsticks on the bowl, and took out a chopstick from his carry-on bag. The small paper bag was handed over, "The best Longjing, don't spoil it for me."

Huang Gang looked a bit embarrassed: "My lord, we only drink alcohol here and don't drink tea, and we don't know how to make tea, why don't we serve you a jar of good wine? Our kumiss with roast mutton here tastes amazing!"

"It's fine if you don't know how to make tea. I'm not used to drinking kumiss. Just serve me fresh water and add roast leg of lamb." Zhang Jin waved his hand.

"Okay, my lord, please wait a moment." After Huang Gang finished speaking, he turned around and trotted towards the back kitchen.

While eating the dried peanuts and dried fruits on the table, Zhang Jin looked at the guests around him. Apart from the guys who were obviously from the caravan, there was also a group of obviously foreign races around the table on the small steps facing the gate. guests.

This group of aliens is the Tatars led by Chang Xiaowen, who is also one of the members of the treasure hunting team.

It seems that these Tatars and Shuoyang Guailiangcai, Huanggang from Pingdingshan, Ercai and Xinping came the earliest, and the two parties must have been in contact.

When Zhang Jin was looking at the Tatars in the inn, Chang Xiaowen also looked towards him, and said something in Tatar language. It's not a good word to come.

However, Ha Gang Tongga, the big guard next to him, quickly translated this sentence: "My hostess said that I never thought that Daming Jinyiwei would come back to such a place where no shit is like this. Could it be that the people's fat and cream in other places have been searched by you?" !"

Zhang Jin was not angry at all, and smiled lightly: "What do you Tatars know? We Jinyiwei never search for people's fat and people's cream. How many properties can ordinary people have? It's better to steal a minister's house to make more money!"

Ha Gang and Tong Ga translated it for Chang Xiaowen, and Chang Xiaowen spat and said something in a contemptuous tone.

"My hostess said that you, Jinyiwei and Dongchang, who framed Zhongliang, are no different from those corrupt officials who plunder the people's fat and anointing. They are all heinous villains!"

"I don't even know what qualifications you Tatars have to say this, heinous villains, let each other be each other."

"My hostess advises you to leave before she intends to take your dog's life, otherwise she will be angered. She doesn't care about Dongchang or Jinyiwei, no one can save your dog's life!" Ha Gang Tong Ga He raised his hand to wipe his neck.

"I will leave naturally when I finish my work. As for when I will leave, you don't need to care about it. If you feel that I am an eyesore in this inn and delay your work, please do whatever you want." Zhang Jin looked disapproving.

At this time, Huang Gang and Xin Ping brought up the roast mutton and water.

"My lord, the roast leg of lamb you asked for is here. It's fresh and hot. Here's a pot of water."

Chang Xiaowen said it again, and Ha Gang Tong Ga translated: "It's really embarrassing for a big man not to drink, hahaha!"

Huang Gang and Xin Ping turned their heads to look at the Tatars, then turned to Zhang Jin and asked, "My lord, do you really not drink?"

"The wine here is too bad, I'm not used to it, go down." Zhang Jin waved the two of them back, looked at the real roast leg of lamb in the big basin, took out a dagger from his waist, and cut off a piece of meat from the leg of roast lamb Put it in front of you, and use the superficial detective to sniff it carefully.

Surface Detective: Your nose is sensitive enough to pick out a lot of smells, but only the smells of the day.

It didn't take long for him to distinguish the above thing from the smell of the roast leg of lamb.

In addition to the natural aroma of the roasted leg of lamb, there are also cumin, pepper and coarse salt, which can be regarded as a lot of work.Most importantly, the roast leg of lamb was not poisoned!
It seems that this group of people is quite smart, and they will not kill themselves immediately before they figure out the real purpose of coming here, and just now Chang Xiaowen was conducting a preliminary test on himself, which should be the result of their discussion .

Zhang Jin planned to stand still for now. Anyway, he had nothing to do before the black sandstorm came, but because of his status as a Jinyiwei, the Tatars and the shopkeepers of the Longmen Inn should be anxious.

In order to ensure that their treasure-digging business can go smoothly, they will definitely try to drive away or solve the thorn in the side of Jin Yiwei who suddenly came to the inn.

As long as Chang Xiaowen and others can't help but take the lead, then Zhang Jin will have enough excuses to counterattack, and then it will be much easier to discuss cooperation with Feng Lidao and others.

Either cooperate, or take two shots, smart people know how to choose!
Thinking of this, Zhang Jin put the slices of roasted lamb leg into a bowl, and started to eat with clean chopsticks.

I have to say that even though they are pretending to be the store owners of the Longmen Inn, Liang Cai and the others are very careful in pretending, and the taste of the food is really not bad.Roasted lamb leg with cumin, pepper and coarse salt, the taste of this roasted lamb not only has no fishy smell, but also has an indescribable natural deliciousness.

It's not that Zhang Jin has never eaten roasted lamb legs in reality, but compared with the roasted lamb legs at Longmen Inn, except for the richer seasonings added, the meat taste is completely inferior. The difference between the two is like The difference between feed chickens and free range chickens.

A good roast leg of lamb, Zhang Jin ate it all by himself.After eating, he invited Huang Gang to take him to the room on the second floor to rest, and asked him to prepare hot water for washing his face and soaking his feet.

"My lord, this water is precious in the desert, isn't it too wasteful for you to use it to soak your feet?" Huang Gang persuaded.

"Afraid I won't be able to pay?" Zhang Jin rolled his eyes and squinted at the other party coldly.

"That's not..."

"It's fine if it's not. Whoever is ready to bring it to me will not miss your money." Zhang Jin took out a small piece of broken silver from his waist and threw it to the other party, then closed the door without giving the other party a chance to continue talking.

After the door was closed, Huang Gang's face outside the door suddenly changed, he made a disgusted and contemptuous expression, turned and walked downstairs.

"How's it going?" Xin Ping, who had just cleaned up Zhang Jin's dining table, asked hurriedly when he saw Huang Gang coming down.

Huang Gang shook his head: "Let me boil water to wash his face and soak his feet, you son of a bitch!"

Xin Ping also snorted: "This group of Zidongchang and Jinyiwei are not good people. Damn it, this roast leg of lamb is eaten so clean, it is more ruthless than a wolf in the desert!"

The two returned to the back kitchen muttering.

At night, everyone who had dinner went back to their rooms to rest.

The hall of the inn was quiet and quiet, only a few candle lamps were left shining with limited dim light, making the reflections of the objects in the hall on the walls and ground like twisted and terrifying ghosts and ghosts.

In the secret passage below the Longmen Inn, Chang Xiaowen brought his guard, Ha Gang Tong Ga, together with Liang Cai, Huang Gang, Er Cai, and Xin Ping to discuss matters.

"A Jin Yiwei suddenly came today, how to solve this problem?" Chang Xiaowen said straight to the point.

"Why did Jin Yiwei suddenly come to this remote inn in the desert?" Liang Cai wondered while smoking a cigarette, "It stands to reason that this place has neither money nor officials, so it shouldn't come here, could it be to arrest criminals? ?”

Huang Gang shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it to me. That guy said he planned to stay in our store for a few days, and he didn't ask me if I've seen anyone. It doesn't look like he's here to arrest people, but more like he's here to do business. .”

"Then it's troublesome. If he comes to do things, we will do things too. I hope the well water won't interfere with the river water." Liang Cai exhaled smoke.

"What is he going to do?" Ercai asked.

"I don't know, he didn't say anything, and I didn't dare to ask further." Huang Gang replied.

Xin Ping suggested: "If you want me to say, let's find out what he wants to do, see if we can help him get it done secretly, and send him away quickly. There are only a few days before the black sandstorm comes. Things can't be delayed."

"What if he doesn't leave, or we can't help him?" Liang Cai asked.

"That's easy, just do him!" Chang Xiaowen lifted his braided hair, looked around at everyone, with a sneer hidden in the corner of his mouth.

Huang Gang, Ercai, and Xin Pingping looked at each other and did not speak. Instead, they turned their attention to Liang Cai next to him. After all, as an old Jianghu, the other party should have thought more carefully.

Liang Cai was smoking a cigarette, and it took him a long while before he opened his mouth and said, "Many Jin Yiwei have died outside these years, and it is not difficult to bury someone in this desert yellow sand."

The smile on Chang Xiaowen's face grew stronger: "So you agree?"

Xin Ping asked, "Poison? Or sneak attack at night?"

Huang Gang said: "Poisoning is the best way to poison, but looking at the other party's behavior during the day today, he is obviously wary. And he also knows Yizhaoxian and Shitongtian. I'm afraid it's not easy for our inn. Whether the poisoning can be successful or not Easy to say."

"Then we can only sneak attack at night." Ha Gang Tongga clenched his fists.

"We don't know his martial arts. It will be troublesome if the sneak attack fails and he is restrained." Liang Cai said.

Chang Xiaowen said: "This is easy to handle. I will find an excuse to argue with him tomorrow, and after a good fight, I will probably know his martial arts strength. After I have found out the opponent's bottom, it will not be too late to fight at night! "

Huang Gang suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I took a closer look today. Although this guy has an embroidered spring knife on his waist, there are no thick calluses on his hands and palms. He doesn't look like someone who has used weapons for many years. Be careful of hidden weapons and poisonous powder."

"Understood, in terms of hidden weapons and poisonous fans, I am the number one in the world!" Chang Xiaowen smiled confidently.

In the guest room, after Zhang Jin washed his face and soaked his feet, he folded his clothes and lay down on the bed. There were three sections of stainless steel guns resting on the back of his head. bed board.

He found this three-section fine steel gun in the arsenal of Lanzhou City. Originally, he just planned to take a long gun as a weapon, but he didn't expect that there was such a treasure hidden in the arsenal.

Because of the lack of toughness of the steel spear, most soldiers or generals don't like to use it, which happens to be cheap for him.

Normally, the three-section stainless steel gun body can just be hidden against the outside of the thigh, and the gun head is placed on the other side, which does not affect the action at all.It is even possible to suddenly pull out the tip of a gun from under the clothes and insert it directly into the vital parts of the enemy's body during the battle, achieving an unexpected killing effect.

Because he couldn't guarantee whether Chang Xiaowen and others would sneak attack him tonight, Zhang Jin put the fine steel gun by his side, and put the Xiuchun knife on the shelf beside him, so as to paralyze the enemy.

With such a vigilant heart, Zhang Jin slowly fell into a light sleep.

The moon sets and the sun rises, and the night passes without incident.

Zhang Jin opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. There was a burst of noise outside the window. It sounded like a caravan got up early and set off on the road.

Although he didn't fall into a deep sleep all night, his spirits are still very good, after all, his physique is stronger than ordinary people.

Zhang Jin put on his clothes, hid the three steel spears on his body, opened the door with the Xiuchun knife and walked out, ready to go downstairs for breakfast.
