Chapter 32: Taking Puyang Out of Wisdom (4)

"Who dares to eavesdrop outside the door?" Liu Yixuan immediately became alert when he heard the movement outside the door, because once the Jin people knew about his plan, not only would the Song army not be able to successfully take Puyang, but his life would not be saved.

Liu Yixuan hurriedly got up, quickly pushed open the door, jumped out of the door, and grabbed the person who eavesdropped on them.

"Good man, please spare me, don't kill me, don't kill me!" the man hurriedly begged for mercy.

Liu Yixuan looked carefully and found that the person who eavesdropped on their words was not someone else, but the shopkeeper of the inn. The shopkeeper was holding a set of tea sets in his hand. He thought he was here to deliver tea to Liu Yixuan and the others, but he accidentally heard their conversation at the door.

"It's you? You're so brave. Tell me quickly. Who asked you to monitor us here?" Seeing that he eavesdropped on his conversation, Liu Yixuan guessed that the shopkeeper was probably bribed by the Jin people and was intending to eavesdrop on the guests outside. Liu Yixuan and Xiao Liuzi gave a look, and they dragged the shopkeeper to their door, pressed his backhand on the table in the room, then closed the door and wanted to interrogate him.

"Good man, please spare me, please spare me, the villain just came over to deliver tea to the two guests, but I didn't hear anything. Please ask the two heroes to spare me!" The old man's head was pressed against the table, and he begged with a deformed mouth.

"I didn't hear anything? Then why did you fall into a tea bowl? It's clear that you heard what we were talking just now and dared to lie to me! If you don't tell the truth, I will cut your tongue!" Liu Yixuan widened his eyes and threatened viciously.

The shopkeeper was so confused that he had to explain the truth. "This... the villain really didn't hear clearly. He only heard the two guests say... what to say about setting fire to the Jin people's food and grass, and what else... helping the Song army outside to attack the city, but he didn't hear anything else!"

"Damn, your ears are so good! You can hear everything you should hear! Xiao Liuzi, spread his mouth apart, I'm going to cut his tongue!" As he said that, he took out a self-defense dagger from his waist and pointed the tip of the knife at the mouth of the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper saw the dagger, he knew that these two people were not good people. He had already been so scared that his legs were weak. He quickly knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Give me your life, good man, I really didn't intend to eavesdrop on your conversation, but I happened to meet you. I was curious for a while and then eavesdropped on a few words. I knew that both of them were heroes who did big things. For the sake of both people from the Song Dynasty, I would spare the life of the villain!" The shopkeeper was crying and kowtowed continuously.

"You still know that you are from the Song Dynasty! Then why are you still working for the Jin people here? It is obvious that you are being bribed by the Jin people and want to be willing to be a dog for the Jin people, right?"

"No, no, no, it's not like this. You can listen to the explanation from the villain. The villain's surname is Zhou, and it is the native of Puyang. It was just because the Jin people occupied Puyang and forced me to recruit my inn to be their inn. The villain had no choice. If the villain refused to obey, my family would die under the butcher knife of the Jin people. I would also ask the hero to be kind and spare the villain's life. The villain would never mention a word to others!"

This week, the shopkeeper sniffled and cried, and he said it with sincerity. Liu Yixuan knew that many of these common people were willing to be slaves of the country in order to survive. If the shopkeeper really heard his speech by chance, as long as he did not go to inform the Jin people, it would be okay to spare his life. However, the shopkeeper looked slick, and what he said was hard to tell the truth.

Liu Yixuan continued to ask, "Since you have heard our conversation, I must know who we are, right?"

This week, when the shopkeeper heard Liu Yixuan ask him this, he didn't know what he meant, he looked up and hesitated, "This... the villain really doesn't know where the two came from... heroes and heroes, but... yesterday I heard people on the street say that Puyang City is martial law, so we must strictly guard against spies from the Song army. I think the two... should be... the Song army outside the city?"

"Haha, you know the goods. I am the imperial guard of the Song Dynasty! Since you already know who we are, there is no need for us to keep you anymore. Liuzi, send him on his way!"

"Yes!" Xiao Liu took a towel from the table and was about to cover his mouth. The bright sharp blade in his hand was so scared that the shopkeeper's pants were wet this time.

"Oh, please spare me, please spare me, sir, please spare me. As long as you can save my villain's life, you can do whatever you want me to do!"

This week, the shopkeeper begged for mercy, and Liu Yixuan also saw that he was an ordinary person who was greedy and afraid of death. Seeing that the Song army was about to attack the city, everything he set fire in the city was not ready. Seeing the shopkeeper begging like this, he did not harm him.

"You can do whatever you want? You don't want to deceive us with lies, so that you can inform the Jinren, right?"

"I dare not, I dare not, the villain has no intention of this! To be honest, the villain also hates these Jin soldiers very much. They forced my inn and eat and drink for free every day. If there is any negligence, they will beat and scold the villain. The villain always hopes that the army of the Song Dynasty can drive these Jin barbarians out! If the two adults can use the villain, the villain is willing to work hard for the two adults, and only ask the two adults to be kind and spare the life of the villain!"

When Liu Yixuan saw that the shopkeeper looked pitiful, not as if he was lying, he thought that it was also a time to use people. If he killed him, he would inevitably alarm the Jin soldiers outside. The government office in the inn is only a hundred meters, and the Jin soldiers are coming and going at the entrance. Once the Jin people are alarmed, this night-time plan will be ruined!

When Liu Yixuan thought of this, he was hesitant for a moment. He decided to take a gamble and keep the shopkeeper's life a bad life. As long as he did not tell the Jin people about his identity, the Song Dynasty's army could break through the city before dawn, and at the same time, his mission to enter the city could be successfully completed.

"Okay, I believe you when you see you are so sincere. However, if you dare to reveal a word about our identity, I will never forgive you!"

"Thank you for your kindness, sir! Thank you for your kindness!" This week, the shopkeeper saw that he saved his life, kowtowed and thanked him. "That... two heroes, since they have spared their lives, the villain will... go back first!" As he said that, he was about to turn around and run away.

"Go back? Where to go? Are you going to report the message to the Jin people? Ah?" Liu Yixuan asked sternly.

"No, no, how dare the villain? The villain is just afraid of disturbing the big affairs of the two adults here, so... I want to go there elsewhere, take a look... Just let the villain go!" The shopkeeper Zhou asked carefully this time.

"It's okay to let you go, but I heard you just said that as long as you let you go, you will be willing to do things for us. I wonder if you keep your word?"

Manager Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "This... the villain just said those words in a hurry. However, the villain has old and young people, and the family still hopes to support this little life. If you ask me to fight those golden men, the villain... won't dare!"

When Liu Yixuan heard the shopkeeper thought he wanted him to fight against the Jin people, he smiled and said, "You think too much, we don't need you to fight against the Jin people! You just need to do what I said and provide us with some things we need."

After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt at ease. As long as he didn't let himself fight with the Jin people, what would it be like to rob his own thing? "Oh, this is easy. I wonder what both of you want. As long as you have it in the small shop, I will definitely prepare it for you!"

After hearing this, Liu Yixuan said to him: "This attitude is almost the same! Come on, let me tell you everything I want!"

Manager Zhou quickly handed over his ear and obediently waited for Liu Yixuan's instructions. How can Liu Yixuan burn the gold and military food? Let's wait for the following! (To be continued)
