Chapter 160 Staying in the hotel
Chapter 160 Staying in the hotel
When several people saw this situation, their faces changed.
The next moment, everyone hurried towards the inn without stopping!
Lu Qingqing walked at the end and pulled out all the arrows that were stuck in their bodies!
The space for storing arrows is getting fewer and fewer. Every time you use one, there is one less arrow.
On the surface, she could only fire five of the arrows on her back.
Therefore, every time Lu Qingqing used an arrow, she would pull it out and wipe it before using it a second time!
A few people don’t know who is coming behind them?
The speed of leaving can only be accelerated!
In just a short while, they arrived at the inn called Jixiang Ruyi that Zhou Hai mentioned!
All the well-known inns in the city were closed and no longer doing business.
Because it was a rented shop, he could not pay the rent and the high taxes.
As if they had agreed upon it, everyone closed their doors and windows, left their hometowns and Guicheng, and went to seek a living elsewhere.
Only some smaller inns are run by their own families, and they can barely survive because they don't have to pay rent.
There are only six inns like Jixiang Ruyi in the city.
There are four inns, and I’m afraid it’s not safe to do business at night.
Therefore, they do not receive guests at night. There are only two restaurants that are open at night, and Jixiang Ruyi is one of them.
The other one was in the west of the city, and Lu Qingqing lived in the east of the city. The distance was a bit far, so Zhou Hai asked them to stay at the Jixiang Ruyi Inn.
The shop owner was a young man in his early twenties. He hired two assistants to help with the work. The two assistants were about the same age as the shop owner.
When Lu Qingqing and others arrived, they were responsible for taking other guests to their rooms, so the store owner Li Xiao had to come out to greet the guests in person.
No matter how many things a boss has on his mind, he always shows a smile on his face when he shows it to his customers.
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Dear guests, do you want to stay in the hotel? We have three upper rooms vacant. How many people are you staying with? How many rooms do you want?"
Li Xiao always says the same thing no matter who he is talking to, and it almost never changes!
When you encounter situations where you need to deal with people outside, it is usually Land Rover who speaks up.
When Lu Hu heard that there was still a room available, he quickly asked, "How much is one night?"
As soon as Li Xiao heard this, he knew that they did not often stay in the inn, because people who often go out, when they enter the inn and hear that there are rooms available, will ask to stay for a few nights and will not ask how much money it costs.
But Li Xiao would not show these thoughts on his face, and said quickly:
"Sir, the charges at my inn are very fair. A room costs only 500 coins a night, and there are bedding and tea, all provided free of charge."
Lu Hu was unsure of what to do, so he looked up at Lu Qingqing.
Li Xiao was sharp-eyed and immediately knew that Lu Qingqing was the one who made the decision among these people!
Five hundred coins a night, Lu Qingqing knew that her second uncle thought it was a bit expensive.
He couldn't make a decision, so he asked Lu Qingqing to take it. This didn't mean that he needed Lu Qingqing's consent before using the money!
But when my second uncle encounters something that he thinks is expensive, he will have decision-making difficulties!
Lu Qingqing is the most decisive among these people, so it is right to let her make the decision when there is something to worry about.
Lu Qingqing looked at her second uncle, smiled to herself, and said:
"Uncle, there are so many of us, let's take all three rooms."
Lu Hu nodded and looked at Li Xiao: "Give us all three rooms. Let us stay for one night."
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Yes, sir. Please come in, please come in."
Li Xiao made a gesture of invitation with his right hand, but with his lowered eyes, he was quietly looking at them.
It can be seen that they have come all the way here in a dusty state, with bags on their shoulders and a black horse traveling with them.
It seems like they encountered some emergency on the way?
As soon as he walked out of the door, Li Xiao noticed that the two children looked pale. Being good at observing people's expressions, he could tell at a glance that the two children were frightened and had not yet fully recovered!
There was also a girl walking at the back wearing a plain green dress. She had two long braids hanging in front of her chest, and a strand of messy hair in front of her forehead stuck to both sides.
The evening breeze blew by, gently ruffling two strands of hair, which were blown up and then down, revealing a pair of eyes as bright and dazzling as obsidian, which were round and round, lively and lively without losing the style of a lady from a noble family.
At first, Li Xiao thought she was some rich girl who had nothing to do at home and came out to experience the sufferings of the people.
But upon closer inspection, she was carrying a bow and arrow, and the five arrows were wiped clean.
However, if you look closely, you can still see blood stains at the location of the arrow with one of the scissors.
Li Xiao frowned. The blood stain on this arrow looked like it had just been stained.
Thinking of this, Li Xiao was shocked.
He really couldn't believe that the girl in front of him, who looked like a lady from a noble family, could actually kill people with an arrow!
Who are these people?
There were three men, two of them were big, but one was as weak as a scholar, and a woman with two children. It could be seen that one was a blood relative, but the other was not.
Although not all of these people are a real family!
Thinking of this, Li Xiao suddenly remembered that he had heard a guest mention this when someone was staying at the inn a while ago!
It is said that there is a family of murderers in the direction of Chongzhou City. Anyone they encounter, regardless of gender, age or status, will be captured and brutally tortured, and then slowly killed piece by piece for their own fun.
The guests said that many people had already lost money because of them.
Unfortunately, this family is so cunning that no one can catch them, so they are left to kill people everywhere!
Thinking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he saw this family.
Because the guest's description was exactly the same as the family in front of him.
How to do?
If this family is really the devil's family, and he opens the door to do business but it is difficult to offend them, how can he escape danger?
Just as Li Xiao was thinking this, Lu Qingqing was also secretly looking at Li Xiao.
Although he is young, he looks very worldly-wise and experienced!
It is obvious that this is the result of experiencing a lot of people and things!
At first, his expression was still the normal one when he met customers, but later it turned into fear, and he even wished that they would leave quickly and not stay in his store!
Lu Qingqing frowned. This was clearly the first time they met this boss, but why did he act like the god of plague had come to their door?
Lu Qingqing was puzzled, but the boss had already booked a room for them and his expression returned to normal.
Lu Qingqing had no choice but to give up and stay in the hotel first.
Led by Li Xiao, they quickly entered the store and asked a waiter to take the horse from Lu Qingqing and take care of it.
When the man came to take the horse, Lu Qingqing looked into his brown eyes and suddenly asked:
“What kind of feed do you use in your store?”
