Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 89 Conspiracy
In the dark room, only the candlelight on the round table was slightly illuminated, and Sai Diaochan was talking with the masked man in black in a low voice.

Sai Diaochan reported to the masked man respectfully:

"After hard work, we have already taken root here, but we haven't found out about that person yet?"

The masked man nodded slightly, and a somewhat distorted voice came out from under the mask, "Don't worry! That man is a cunning man! This time he escaped from his shell and fled towards Guanzhong, which is a good opportunity to catch him."

Hearing the confident words of the masked man, Sai Diaochan looked at him with admiration and praised:

"Master's ingenious calculations! What is that man worth? You have already sent people to lie in wait here, let's wait and see how he escapes this time."

The masked man shook his head and pulled Sai Diaochan to his side, stroked her hair and said:
"Don't underestimate him, Dongchang, Xichang, and even Jinyiwei, the six doors, who doesn't want to take this big fish?"

"But you can see that he is still living a chic life here, don't think about the problem too simply"

Before Sai Diaochan could speak again, there was a sudden knock on the door of the dark room.

Following Sai Diaochan's "Come in", a maid walked in and saw that it was her personal maid, Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui stepped forward and knelt down on one knee and said respectfully:
"Spy to report! Hu Shiniang will come to Qixia Town soon and wants to settle in our stronghold"

Sai Diaochan was a little surprised when she heard Xiaocui's words. According to her understanding, Hu Shiniang should not have come here, but was sent to Yangzhou to collect intelligence.

The masked man in black waved his hand to let Xiaocui back down, and then said lightly:
"I asked her to come! It's for this mission"

"Seven Heroes Town is the key point this time. We must be safe here. Do you know the details of the inn opposite?"

She and Xiao Cui had just arrived here and hadn't carefully searched the surrounding information. The masked man said with a clear look:

"This time I sent Hu Shiniang here because of that inn, and I also have a certain relationship with them here."

"If it weren't for this action, who would have thought that Zhang Chen, the consultant of the Six Doors who has recently gained some fame in the Jianghu, and the Thief Saint Baiyutang who has disappeared for a long time are all hidden in this small inn?"

Sai Diaochan couldn't believe that there was such a person in the inn. She looked at the two people's clothes and behavior in the inn, and she couldn't tell that they were masters in the world.

The masked man also said with emotion:

"That's not all! The shopkeeper is the eldest lady of the Longmen Security Bureau, and the female handyman is the daughter of Guo Juxia from Six Gates... Thinking about their identities, can this be a simple inn?"

After Sai Diaochan slowly counted the number of people in the inn, she couldn't help but ask if the two remaining people had greater identities, right?
The masked man's expression returned to normal when he heard the words, and he didn't want to be as emotional as the previous ones, so he replied indifferently:

"The two are just small people. The one who settles accounts is now a scholar without any background, and the chef who cooks is even worse. At most, he is only an uncle of the county magistrate."

Seeing that the master doesn't care about these two people, it's hard to say that Sai Diaochan is much better than most ordinary people in terms of status and support in Daming.

But she also knew in her heart that the two of them would not be able to catch his eyes as the master. This time, the master sent someone to investigate because of the opportunity of other people.

Sai Diaochan didn't think about it any more. After all, she was not as good as the two of them in the past. At this moment, she could still feel some sympathy for them. She was really ashamed of her master's life-saving grace. Then she took the initiative to step forward and came to the masked man, and asked Hu Shiniang softly. How will she cooperate in the future.

Seeing that Sai Diaochan slowly regained his composure and started to work, he nodded in satisfaction, stood up slowly, paced in the dark room, thought for a while and said:
"According to reliable information, they are on their way to Qixia Town, and they will come here in the next few days at their speed, and Hu Shiniang's task is to hold them back at that time and prevent them from going out, otherwise It might make them aware of something.

Sai Diaochan asked puzzledly since it was such a trouble, why didn't they just kill them?Or ambushing the gang?There is always one of the two groups that is easy to deal with, right?
Faced with Sai Diaochan's question, the masked man waved his sleeves and said coldly:
"Stupid! Don't ask such naive questions in the future"

Seeing that he was a little angry, Sai Diaochan quickly moved to his side and knelt down at his feet like a kitten, rubbing his calf to express his submission.

Sai Diaochan's docile performance made the masked man feel comfortable and pulled her back to the table, explaining in a gentle voice:

"The people in Tongfu Inn are all of extraordinary status, either rich or noble, but these are not the reasons for our hesitation. What makes us scruple is their strength. To be precise, Zhang Chen and Bai Zhantang, both of them are ordinary martial arts masters. Not their opponents.

It is possible for the top experts in our organization to succeed, but it is impossible to come here to win them, so we have to choose the worst strategy to hold them back and count as success.

As for the group outside, do I still need to say?If he could do it, could he be allowed to run from the capital to this small Qixia town?

After explaining these questions, the masked man seemed no longer willing to talk to her, and waved his hand to signal Sai Diaochan to leave.

Seeing the masked man waving his hands, Sai Diaochan knelt down on one knee and thanked him, then turned and left. At some point, the candle on the table had already been extinguished. With the slow closing of the darkroom door, the figure of the masked man in black was gradually submerged in the darkness, as if he Never been here.

The next morning!
Last night, everyone was celebrating the new student at the inn. Although someone disrupted the situation before and made the new student somewhat flawed, everyone was still in good spirits. They made a fuss until very late together, and woke everyone up the next day with a high-pitched voice.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Why am I still here, shouldn't I be in the academy?"

Everyone was frightened by Mo Xiaobei's screams and thought that something had happened. They ran to the backyard to check the situation and saw Xiaobei saying in horror.

Zhang Chen yawned and said:
"Didn't your sister-in-law ask your elder brother Bai to ask for leave for you yesterday! What are you still shouting for?"

Xiao Bei was stunned on the spot when he heard the words!

Seeing this, the rest of the people waved their hands and left, yawning.

After freshening up, Bai Zhantang squinted his eyes and opened the door of the inn, but was knocked open by two figures. Zhang Chen looked at the two people entering the room and asked:
"You two, we are not open yet, are you..."

Although Zhang Chen didn't make it clear, what he said clearly meant that they were not welcome here.

Xiaocui who was behind Sai Diaochan jumped out and shouted:
"Didn't your shopkeeper tell you the rules?"

Hearing this, Zhang Chen's eyes flickered with a slight chill, and the master and servant opposite suddenly felt chills in their bodies, as if they were about to encounter some danger.

Thinking of the topics discussed last night, Sai Diaochan hurriedly asked Xiaocui to step down, smiled and apologized and asked about Tong's whereabouts.

Seeing that Sai Diaochan was quite polite, Zhang Chen pointed upstairs and said:

"Hold on!"

"The shopkeeper is still resting upstairs"

"I'm going to invite someone! You should wait here for a while"

After finishing speaking, he motioned for everyone to greet them, and went upstairs to find the shopkeeper. He lightly knocked on the door knocker and waited for Tong Xiangyu to open the door. Zhang Chen said:
"The shopkeeper! The opposite shopkeeper Sai came again and said that if there is a discussion with you."

Tong Xiangyu wanted to break his head when he heard the words, but he didn't think that she would have anything important to do with him, so he asked Zhang Chen to go down first to dress up and go down. Before the two of them finished speaking, there was a sudden fierce quarrel downstairs...

　Thanks for the support!
