Guessing that the assassins were most likely ambushed in a nearby medical center, they didn't even dare to look for a doctor, but only found a remote inn to stay and rest.

This inn has a history of many years, and the plaque at the door is wrapped in gray spider webs again and again, and even when Du Weizhen and others walked in, a layer of dust fell on their heads.

Du Weizhen has always been precious, which one is not the best for food, clothing and housing, and it is the first time he has seen such a dilapidated place, and his brows are so wrinkled that he can kill mosquitoes.

His subordinates saw it and hurriedly proposed, "Your Highness, why don't we go to the city and find a better inn?" ”

Although Du Weizhen didn't like it here, he knew what the situation was now.

"It's okay, let's do it here, those assassins are waiting for us in the city, you are injured again, it is better to rest here for a few days."

Du Weizhen said so, and those guards naturally didn't say much.

A guard pinned his injured hand behind him, walked to the counter, knocked on the table to attract the attention of the person behind him, "Shopkeeper, we want to stay in the hotel." ”

A middle-aged man in his thirties and forties raised his head, squinted a pair of cloudy eyes, looked the guard up and down, his eyes touched his somewhat tattered but very finely made clothes, his eyes lit up, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more intense, and he enthusiastically came out, "Okay guest officer, how many of you are there?" ”

The guard didn't like his greedy eyes and frowned, but the last thing they wanted now was to cause trouble, so he just didn't look over and count people.

"Seven rooms, four days."

"Okay!" The shopkeeper answered in a loud voice, and then took out his abacus and crackled, "A few guest officers, fifty taels of silver." ”

Ten taels of silver? The guard's eyes suddenly became fierce, he slapped his palm on the table, and shouted angrily: "You profiteer, can you treat us as the wronged boss, and your broken shop is worth fifty taels?" Ten or eight days in the largest inn in the city will not be enough. ”

The shopkeeper smiled very flatteringly, nodded his head, and looked very respectful, but the words he said made people angry, "What the guest officer said, our inn is not ordinary, there is this one within a radius of 100 miles, if you want to go to the city to live in the hotel, it is estimated that it will be too late to rush over, and this area is not very peaceful, there are often robberies and murders, how can this bit of silver be important, you say yes?" ”

The guard wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Du Weizhen, "She Shi, forget it, give him fifty taels." ”

Du Weizhen spoke, and She Shi didn't entangle, but angrily smashed fifty taels on the table, making a muffled sound, and the muffled sound was like smashing on the heart of the shopkeeper, so that the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed, and he happily took the silver into his arms.

Looking at Du Weizhen, who was more than ten steps away, it was like looking at a big financier, his eyes were as bright as the June sun, and he even said that he would give fifty taels, it seems that these people are wronged, it is better to take the opportunity to make a little more money when the time comes, and then even this broken inn can be abandoned.

The more the shopkeeper thought about it, the more excited he became, and even She Shi noticed that something was wrong, and looked at him vigilantly and vigilantly.

The shopkeeper hurriedly looked away and shouted loudly to the back: "Li Qiang, you kid is hiding behind and lazy again, come out to entertain guests." ”

Soon a very thin man ran out from behind, as thin as a skeleton wrapped in a layer of human skin, with a few taels of flesh on his face, his eyes were deeply sunken, and the cheeks of the sharp-beaked monkey were nothing more than that.

"A few guest officers, please."

He led Du Weizhen and the others upstairs with his waist, and he didn't stop talking for a short time, asking left and right about some inconsequential topics, even if no one paid attention to him, he didn't stop, it was really annoying.

Finally sent away this ill-intentioned shopkeeper, Du Weizhen breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the chair and thought about their current situation, the identity of the assassin in the potential shadows is unknown, although it is very likely that Du Chenliang sent it, but he has a faint idea in his heart, it shouldn't be Du Chenliang, after all, he was sent to Meizhou This matter was mentioned by Du Chenliang's main force to his father, if something happened to him on the way, he couldn't get out of the relationship, unless he was willing to risk his father's suspicion to get rid of him.

At this time, the door suddenly rang, and Du Weizhen immediately moved to the window and asked vigilantly: "Who?" ”

"Your Highness, my subordinates want to tell you something."

This was She Shi's voice, and Du Weizhen relaxed and went to open the door for him.

"Your Highness, my subordinates feel that the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper are not good people, and I am afraid that they are eyeing His Highness."

Du Weizhen grew up in a palace that eats people and does not spit out bones, and he can easily see that anyone has malice or kindness towards him, and the greed of the shopkeeper naturally did not escape his eyes.

"The main hall knows."

"Then do you want to ......" She Shi put his right hand on his neck and made a posture of a blade, so that he could sit and wait to die, it was better to strike first.

But Du Weizhen did refuse, "Before he took action, he was still an ordinary person in Kunguo, and this palace has the responsibility to protect him, how can he kill innocents indiscriminately?" ”

She Shi sighed in his heart that he was kind, "It's the subordinates who are reckless, so what should we do?" ”

"Tell me not to touch all the food and tea they have brought me today, and if you are thirsty, go to the stream we saw when we came, and if they do move tonight, then he is not innocent."

She Shi hurriedly went down and ordered.

In the evening, the shopkeeper beckoned them down for dinner, saying that it was specially prepared for them, but because of Du Weizhen's instructions, they all refused, but let the shopkeeper present them separately, saying that they were very tired and needed to rest, so they would not go down to eat.

After the shopkeeper's 'hospitality' invitation was fruitless several times, he desperately asked the shopkeeper to send a few dishes and a free pot of tea and wine to each room.

After half a burnt incense, they asked the shopkeeper to go up to collect the dishes and chopsticks, and the shopkeeper was overjoyed when he saw the dishes that had been swept away, and he didn't say anything anymore, and went to stand behind the counter happily.

No one saw it, and a few birds flew to the pile of wine and food in the corner and pecked happily, and in a short time they shook and fell.

Time passed minute by minute, the night was getting deeper, and in this small inn in the middle of nowhere, there was no one around, no noise could be heard, only the sound of unknown birds, and there was a hint of excitement in the quiet.

Du Weizhen was squinting and leaning on the bed, when a small sound penetrated his eardrums, and he immediately opened his eyes, and by the cold moonlight, he could see a saw coming in through the crack in the door, and soon the deadbolt was sawed open.
