Chapter 399 Deliver a Message Secretly

“Okay, I know I did something wrong. But Master Guo, can you tell me how this matter was settled in the end?”

Master Guo kept smoking tobacco, with a sparkle across his eyes.

“It has nothing to do with us no matter how this matter was settled. It’s getting late. Get some sleep. We’ll go on our journey tomorrow.”

Lin Mengya did not expect that Master Guo would say so.

She felt slightly strange in her heart. Based on Master Guo’s temperament, she thought that even if he was not as fiery as when he was young, the strong sense of justice should at least be rooted in his heart.

Could it be that Master Guo prevented them from continuing intervening in it because he didn’t want to get in trouble?

Watching his back that was still upright, Lin Mengya only felt strange.

The words didn’t seem to be said by Master Guo.

“Forget it. Now that Master Guo has said so, just deliver the hundred fragrance rat to Dongfang Xu. After that, it has nothing to do with us.”

Qiu Yu was also a bit frustrated. After all, they had struggled to find the clue. Now even Master Guo, the leader of the caravan, had said so. Wouldn’t it be silly of them to insist?

“You can get some sleep. I’ll go to find Dongfang Xu.”

Lin Mengya didn’t want to give up. Maybe she had never been a person with a bleeding heart.

She would never do anything not beneficial to her.

But today Xiu made her reluctant to reject her.

Xiu was a sunflower stubbornly growing in this filthy world. No matter what hardships she had been through, she could still show a smile as bright as a flower.

She was simple and nice, with her inexplicable persistence.

This was the first time that she had seen such a pure person since she came to this world.

Conspiracy and deception had turned into haze, gradually devouring Lin Mengya’s heart.

Thus, after seeing Xiu, who was as bright as sunshine, she unconsciously wanted to help her.

Lin Mengya sighed secretly. Perhaps she was not as cruel as she had imagined.

The inn fell silent at this time after people bustled about all day.

The transient merchants had already fallen asleep, but there were occasionally a few rooms with lights on.

Lin Mengya just realized that she kept thinking of going to deliver a message but had no idea where Dongfang Xu lived.

With some embarrassment, she could only operate the radar to detect the unique poison of Lieyun people secretly.

But what if they lived in another inn?

Lin Mengya took a look at the hundred fragrance rat hanging on her waist. In any case, she should deliver this little rat to Dongfang Xu tonight.

She sneaked around the inn like a thief, but the radar had no reaction. It was weird. Could she be so unlucky that Dongfang Xu really didn’t live in this inn?

It was knotty. Although the town was not big, there were numerous businessmen coming and going. Therefore, should she check the inns one by one?

It was dark outside. Only the night watchman beat the clapper punctually.

Baishao was still alone in the room. She had gone out for half a night. Would Baishao be terribly frightened?

When she was standing on the stairs in trouble, a small sound of rustling came.

She seemed to feel her head hit by something from behind.

She turned back alertly, but there was no one behind her. She rubbed the back of her head with her little hand, and contracted her delicate brows tightly.

It was weird. What was that just now?

Looking down inadvertently, she saw a small white paper ball on the ground.

Seeing no one around, Lin Mengya picked it up immediately.

She spread the paper ball, and found a line of words on it.

” Dongfang Xu lives in Room No.1 on the second floor of Jinfu Inn.”

The short line of words solved her burning question.

However, Lin Mengya put down the note and looked around alertly.

Did it mean that everything she just did had been seen?

She got gooseflesh, as if grasped firmly by an invisible large hand.

How come... Who would it be?

Lin Mengya forced herself to calm down, looking at the note in her hand, but the strange handwriting left her no clue.

Calm down. She must calm down now.

She calmly went to the end of the corridor, and the whole inn was displayed in her vision.

Leaning against the wall, Lin Mengya took a deep breath and began analyzing the current situation.

If this person intended to trap her, as long as he deliberately provoked White Dragon and Black Tiger’s subordinates at the coffin home, it would be difficult for her and Qiu Yu to get away.

But now, what did this note mean?

Did he intend to lure her out? No, based on the words on the note, she could tell that this person must have witnessed the whole process where she talked with Xiu.

If that were the case, he could get rid of her by telling White Dragon and Black Tiger about it.

But if he wanted to help her, why was he so mysterious?

For a while, Lin Mengya was a little confused even with her smart brain.

The Jinfu Inn mentioned on the note was at the other end of the town. She estimated that it would take her about ten minutes to walk there.

But what if that person lied to her?

Looking at the note, Lin Mengya was in a dilemma.

However, if she didn’t go, Xiu would probably be in danger.

Gnashing her teeth, Lin Mengya decisively went downstairs.

The waiter on night duty immediately came up to her. After she gave him a few copper coins, he hospitably opened the door for her.

“Sir, please come back early. Don’t sprain your ankle at night. When you come back, just knock on the door lightly, and I’ll know.”

The waiter held the copper coins with a drowsy look and said with a smile. Lin Mengya nodded and walked outside.

The night fair had been closed, but there were still people walking across the street occasionally.

But they all came and went in a hurry. They must have been exhausted.

Lin Mengya stood at the door. After thinking for a moment, she headed towards the other side of the town. No matter whether it was a trap or not, she had to give it a shot for Xiu.

Fortunately, the street was not empty. There were small unclosed shops on the street showing faint light.

Lin Mengya walked very quickly. After she walked silently for about ten minutes, Jinfu Inn’s signboard had come into her sight.

Before she got to the door, the alarm from her central system almost made her head burst.

So many poisonous ingredients made her breathless with wonder.

Fortunately, there was nothing else except for simple insect repellent at the door.

After looking around and making sure she was followed by no one, Lin Mengya nerved herself to reach out and knock on the door.

After three soft knocks on the door, there was an immediate response inside.

The light brown door of the inn was opened from inside slowly, and then a horrible face popped out at the height of Lin Mengya’s waist.

It was a slightly deformed face of a man, full of wrinkles. She could not tell his age from his face.

However, those eyes with cunning sparkles were greatly alert at this moment. He looked coldly at the childe with a pale face in front of him.

Suddenly, he showed a weird smile. At the moment, his face with purplish-red lips and a few teeth missing frightened Lin Mengya so much that she involuntarily wanted to escape.

As expected, she was tricked!

“Childe, our inn has been taken over. If you want to find an inn, please go ahead.”

He talked in a hoarse and unpleasant voice, seeming to drive her out.

With no time to be afraid, Lin Mengya hurriedly explained.

“I come here for Mr. Dongfang Xu. I got the news of his niece.”

As soon as she said ‘Dongfang Xu’, the man with a horrifying face began to gaze at her.

Lin Mengya hurriedly showed her most sincere expression, for fear that this person wouldn’t believe her.

“Wait a minute. I’ll ask the guest upstairs. It is cold outside. Come in and warm yourself.”

The door was opened slowly in front of her.

At this moment, she saw clearly that the waiter in front of her turned out to be an old man with a humpback.

The sarcoma as large as a football was particularly prominent on his back. His blue coarse clothes looked clean.

The old man led her to the lobby. She saw there was a fire in the middle of the lobby exhaling the sweet smell of chestnuts, sweet potatoes and potatoes. The old man poured a cup of hot water for her.

After that, he gave a soft cushion to her. Lin Mengya thanked him politely at once, and had a much better impression of this humpbacked old man.

“Childe, I’ll go upstairs and check it for you. There is roasted food here. If you are hungry, help yourself.”

Unexpectedly, the ugly old man was actually so gentle and considerate.

Lin Mengya got up and thanked him immediately, without dodging his eyes and despising him.

In fact, she had been perplexed in mind just now because of this note.

Now, the warm temperature had settled her mood. Watching the old man under the faint light, she no longer just considered him gruesome and horrible.

“Old man, thank you for your trouble.”

The old man paused for a moment on the stairs, and then said “You’re welcome” lightly.

Holding the hot water, Lin Mengya looked around.

In terms of size, Jinfu Inn was actually not smaller than the one they lived in.

But it was much quieter than there.

It was presumably because Dongfang Xu’s caravan had taken over the entire inn.

She looked in the direction of the roasted sweet potatoes with embarrassment.

She had been busy with looking for Xiu and helping her all night, but had forgotten that her stomach had been growling long ago.

Although the old man asked her to help herself, after all, he just said that for polite purposes.

In order to maintain her courtesy, Lin Mengya could only strive to swallow the hot water, but couldn’t help looking towards the sweet potatoes.

“It’s okay. They are just some kinds of valueless stuffs. If you don’t mind, just help yourself.”
