Tie Chong said calmly: "But yesterday, many people saw the two of us staying in your inn. As long as we don't go out, those people will report it. ”

Wang Baoquan shook his head and said, "You two are too naïve, aren't you?" Do you think the people who saw you entering my inn would report the crime for you? They all know that more is better than less, once they go to report the crime, in the end, the adults can't find any body, they will beat the informant, who would do such a stupid thing? Also, as you can see, in my inn, only the two of you are staying, and I have sent the shopkeeper and the kitchen chef home, and no one will know that you have an accident here. Also, for the sake of safety, I will disguise myself as one of you tomorrow and go out and walk the streets, so that many people will know that you are out. Immediately after that, I will disguise myself as one of you and go to the first person to walk out of the inn, so that no one suspects that you are dead in my inn. ”

Tie Chong said: "Your plan is really clever. Did you kill anyone with this plan? ”

Shen Jing saw that Wang Baoquan was reluctant to say, and said: "Anyway, the two of us are dying people, you tell us, let us be ghosts, and we have no regrets when we arrive at the Hades Palace." ”

Wang Baoquan said proudly: "It's okay to tell you, that's right, two years ago, my wife Li Lingxia and I did kill a jeweler in this way, and we threw his body into the Anding River, creating the illusion that he fell into the river because of his misstep." His jewels also sank into the Anding River. That case has not been solved yet. ”

Tie Chong was a little excited: "Then have you used this method to harm anyone recently?" ”

Wang Baoquan didn't want to say any more, and said, "Who do you think you are?" You're just a person who is about to meet Hades, and knowing too much won't do you any good. Don't worry, I won't kill you for the time being. When you die of hunger, I will open the iron cage and take away the jewels from you. Finally, I will throw you into the Anding River. ”

Tie Chong said nervously: "Wang Baoquan, don't you just want to get the jewels on our bodies?" We know that this money is something outside the body, and we still know the truth that wealth is destroyed and disaster is eliminated. How about you let us go, and we give you all the gold, silver, and jewelry? ”

Wang Baoquan shook his head and said, "Impossible! Do you think I'm a fool? As long as you go out, you will definitely report to the police. ”

Tie Chong said anxiously: "We can swear to the sky. I won't report it to the police. ”

Shen Jing also said in her heart: "What kind of official to report, we ourselves are officials." ”

Wang Baoquan said angrily: "You two had better be honest and don't try to shout, because here is at least ten zhang deep from the ground, and at the exit, I blocked more than a dozen stone slabs, and there will be no sound at all." ”

After Wang Baoquan blew out the candle, he pulled up a rope and climbed up.

Tie Chong and Shen Jing were so weak that it was impossible to open the iron cage.

Wang Baoquan's body came out of a messy pile behind the firewood room. Before he had entered the inn, he heard a faint footstep approaching him.

Wang Baoquan listened to the footsteps, he saw a black-clothed masked man break into his inn, the black-clothed man seemed to be very familiar with the environment inside the inn, he walked directly to the door of Wang Baoquan's room, and shouted: "Brother Wang, are you at home?" ”

After Wang Baoquan heard that person's voice. With a shudder in his heart, he walked behind the masked man and said, "Who told you to come back?" ”

The masked man let out an "ahhh Turning to look at Wang Baoquan, he pulled the black bulb on his face under his neck, and said, "Brother Wang, you scared me to death, I thought you were in the house?"

Wang Baoquan pulled the man in black to Li Lingxia's room before without lighting a candle. Said mysteriously: "What are you doing here?" Didn't I tell you never to go back to the saffron set? ”

When the man in black spoke, he couldn't pronounce words, as if his teeth couldn't hold the wind, and said, "Brother Wang, I've been hiding in a cave on Xiangyun Mountain near Xiangyun Temple for the past few days. During the day, he pretended to be a beggar to beg in Xiangyun Temple, and slept in a cave at night. I know I'm already a living dead. But I miss my wife and mother, and I want to go home and see them. ”

Wang Baoquan was shocked: "Are you crazy? Do you know how dangerous it is for you to go home like this? What if you are recognized? The government will definitely find out who the deceased is, and when the time comes, my affairs will be completely exposed. ”

The man in black said, "Brother Wang, I know that you are good for me, but I really don't want to live like this." I wasn't even as good as a dog all day long, and none of those people gave me a good face when they saw me. ”

Wang Baoquan glared at the man in black, and said in a very unpolite tone, "What do you want?"

The man in black stumbled, "I'...... I've run out of money, and I really don't know how I'm going to live in the future. ”

Wang Baoquan said in a low tone: "That's it! I'll give you a hundred taels of silver, and you leave the safflower set at once, and go as far as possible. Don't forget, if it weren't for me, you would have died in the reeds of the Anding River. If it weren't for me, the current overlord of the Red Flower Collection would still be Cao Yunxuan. You can't get revenge at all. Now that Cao Yunxuan has been sentenced to death, and the Red Flower Collection has also stabilized, you don't want to come back and drag me to death. ”

The man in black said: "Brother Wang, I know that you saved my life, and I am grateful to you, but I didn't kill anyone, I have lived in a dark place all my life, I am unwilling!"

Wang Baoquan said: "Who said that you will live in a dark place for the rest of your life? Wouldn't it be nice for you to take the hundred taels of silver I gave you, find a place, settle down, start a small business, and then, after making money, you will marry another wife? ”

The man in black gritted his teeth and said, "If you want me to leave the Red Flower Collection, it's fine, but one hundred taels of silver is too little."

Wang Baoquan's heart trembled, and he said, "Then how much do you want?"

The man in black's eyes were red, and he said, "I want a thousand taels."

Wang Baoquan pondered, and said word for word: "Aren't you robbing?" I just took over the Joy Inn, and I don't have that much money. I will give you a maximum of three hundred taels of silver, and no more. ”

The man in black said, "Three hundred taels of silver, what about you send it to Huazi?" My whole life is worth three hundred taels of silver? Don't forget, I didn't kill anyone, you killed people. I'm doing this for the rest of your life. If you are caught, it must be the crime of killing your head, and you pay 1,000 taels of silver to buy the peace of your life, and I think you should be more aware of this account than anyone else.
