Chapter 340: So Suspicion (Part 1)

She wrapped her body in a long blue cloth gown that was not eye-catching, and was holding an ebony lacquered tea plate in her hand. She looked like a leopard holding a pot of good tea on the tea plate with one hand. She was like a young man in the Banyuelou and half-deserved her body. She fought and watched the lively crowd and walked towards the private room behind the Banyuelou.

It is probably because the scene of hundreds of birds worshiping phoenixes behind the Half Moon Tower is really lively. The young men in the Half Moon Tower who are usually placed in the private room and serve them diligently, sneaked out to watch the fun. Xiang Youbao has never met the person in the Half Moon Tower along the way.

He tried his best to grasp the Diling Method that Professor Hu Qianli had. He listened carefully to the movements from several private rooms. He held the tea tray and ran straight to a place where he could see the liveliness behind the Half Moon Tower, but the window was still half hidden in the private room behind the bamboo. He deliberately stepped on heavy footsteps from a distance, and shouted in a honey voice: "There are the first few in the private room, the shopkeeper of my number, who gave me a pot of Longjingya, and the exquisite snacks are all kinds of. You are rewarded by a few distinguished guests..."

As the casual voice of the guy shouted, Xiang Youbao walked to the door of the squat with a slightly heavy step in a manner, pushed open the door of the squat with one arm, and then turned around and shrank his hands, lifted his legs into the threshold with both hands.

Almost facing Xiang Youbao, he first reached into the tray in the private room. A strong man as short as a stone drum blocked Xiang Youbao without hesitation. His long and narrow eyes stared at Xiang Youbao and looked at Xiang Youbao for a few glances. Then he shouted at Xiang Youbao in a muffled voice: "Put down the thing and leave!"

He bowed slightly. Xiang Youbao immediately responded to the strong man's words with a crisp voice: "It's you! You have to worry about it..."

He steadily placed the tray on the palm of the strong man stretched out, and Xiang Youbao waved his head slightly as he turned around. The situation inside the private room immediately caught his eyes.

The private rooms behind the Half Moon Tower originally had their own patterns, and each one did not have any repetition. Just like the private rooms in front of you, the inner and outer are just two rooms. The middle of the house is separated by a moon door with a small bead curtain hanging down, which looks like a gourd with a small outside and a large inside.

There were four strong men outside, two of whom sat on two chairs next to the Moon Gate, holding the Moon Gate like a vicious dog guarding the gate. The other strong man sat on a stool in the corner of the house, with his hands in his arms. He looked like he was holding the fire in his arms at any time to deal with the situation of being in a hurry.

The strong man in Yingmen looked not tall, but the palms that stretched out the tray were covered with dark yellow calluses. It was obvious that he was a veteran of the army who had been dancing swords and guns all year round. His waist was bulging on both sides, so I was afraid that he was holding a short gun that was holding a fire-hard fire?

Although it was through the bead curtain hanging down on the moon door, it was not clear at first glance, but Xiang Youbao probably understood that there were two men in long gowns sitting in the inner room, whispering something above the head of a table?

Walking along the path of the fairy room for more than ten steps. Xiang Youbao always looked like he wanted to stop and watch the fun, but was afraid of the shopkeeper's scolding. His eyes were all staring at Xie Junshen who was training birds to play with various skills, and he didn't even swept the corners of his eyes towards the fairy room just now. When the people who were staying in the fairy room could no longer see their figure, Xiang Youbao just rubbed the crowd of people watching the fun and slipped out of the Half Moon Tower, and walked around the backyard of the Half Moon Tower along the brick wall outside the Half Moon Tower.

It was probably because the bustling behind Banyuelou was too popular. On weekdays, it was so quiet that there was no one. Almost walking along the uninhabited alley, there was a bowl of tea. A small disciple from Huozhengmen suddenly came out of a door hole next to the alley without staring. He shouted in a low voice, "Senior Brother Xiang, I understand everything..."

He pulled the little apprentice behind an uncle next to the alley. Xiang Youbao first looked around and saw the movements at both ends of the alley. Then he lowered his head and grinned at the little apprentice who was calling him to pull him around: "I just bumped out like this, aren't you afraid that your senior brother Xiang will still have his tail behind his butt?"

He raised his hand and pointed at a cigarette box in the door. The little apprentice who was yelling to Xiang Youbao and laughed at Xiang Youbao and replied: "Senior Brother Xiang, if there is really a tail behind you, then you shouldn't know long ago? Besides, I'm pounced on you, even if there is a tail behind you, I just yelled and said that you still owe me two boxes of cigarette money. Isn't this just a gap to talk to you and hand over something?"

He reached out and scraped the tip of his nose at the little apprentice dressed as a vendor. He looked like Youyoubao and said in a harmonious voice: "I'm telling you, who did you kids learn these tricks of the world? Did you teach him?"

He nodded with a smile, but the little apprentice dressed as a vendor, corrected his face and then whispered to Xiang Youbao: "Senior Brother Xiang, I spent a few boxes of cigarettes to find out. Since the second half of last night, five or six people entered the private room in the Banyuelou. The food and drink cost of the client was sent to the door, and he didn't ask anyone to come in at all. This morning, another clerk from the chrysanthemum club came to the Banyuelou to wrap the remaining private room behind, and said that he was going to serve a distinguished guest today and he would have to come in the afternoon?"

Blinking his eyes, Xiang Youbao thought for a moment, and then muttered as if he was talking to himself: "The characters in the chrysanthemum club really know how to hide the truth. First, stuff the important characters in it, then interrupt them with irrelevant reasons, and put them in the same place inside and outside, which really corresponds to the darkness under the lamp..."

As if he remembered something again, the little apprentice dressed in a hawker said to Xiang Youbao again without staring at him: "Senior Brother Xiang, I still listened to the guy in the Banyuelou... Go in first, and look at the group of people, all of them were talking about the funeral in Sijiu City. In the end of the conversation they heard when they were talking, they also talked about the lively events in Sijiu City these days, and they looked like the master who had been staying in Sijiu City for a long time?"

The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional. As soon as the little apprentice said, Xiang Youbao was already shocked and suddenly reached out and grabbed the little apprentice's shoulder: "Are you talking about... those masters who entered the Half Moon Tower in the second half of the night yesterday all looked like people who lived in the Sijiu City for many years?"

He nodded in a daze, and the little apprentice grinned at Xiang Youbao and shouted urgently: "Senior Brother Xiang, you have the strength in your hands..."

He hurriedly let go of the slap that grabbed the little apprentice's shoulder. Xiang Youbao half bent his body and grinned and smiled at the little apprentice who was grinning and rubbing his shoulders, saying, "I didn't stop my hand for a while, I didn't hurt you, right? Tell me, how did you know that the guys in Banyuelou didn't miss it?"

With a twitch on his neck, the little apprentice dressed as a hawker suddenly cried and replied: "Is this an obvious thing? When the guy in the Banyuelou brought them food and drink, he was a little slower. He didn't follow the way he served people in the Sijiu City, and he lost the scene of hand-working. This made the owner blocking the door give two crispy rewards, and even alarmed the second shopkeeper in the Banyuelou to come and make a claim. This was to settle the scene!"

Listening to the little apprentice explaining the reasons in detail, Xiang Youbao suddenly came back to his senses...

The scene in Sijiu City is big, and the imperial city has many rules. Just talking about the guests who are in the restaurants and restaurants, there are at least a hundred rules of all sizes. Even if you enter the door with a tray in your hand, there are still four things to say: shouting, pushing the door with one hand, and entering the house with one hand, and turning the hand around is the four things to do.

If there is a slight mistake in this matter, the customer who has been living in the Sijiu City for many years will immediately realize it. The customer with a good temper will just laugh and mutter again - I'm afraid that this guy will be the second shopkeeper who is not surprised and put it in to serve others?

If you encounter a bad temper, you may have to send it with a big mouth. In the end, you have to take care of the reason why the client was not very kind when he served others, and talk to the second shopkeeper of the restaurant with good health!

But if a person from a foreign country just came to Sijiu City, how could he know these rules and regulations that only the natives in Sijiu City could understand?

Rounding his eyes, Xiang Youbao stretched out his hand and patted the little apprentice's shoulder, and whispered to the little apprentice: "I ran to the back of the Banyuelou under my feet, and found a loophole to hand you Uncle Xie, and said that there is a hard break in the Banyuelou today (Note 1), so he must hold the scene! I don't show my face, don't fight with anyone, try to stretch the work in the daytime scene as much as possible!"

He quickly agreed, and the little apprentice turned his head and carried the wooden box selling cigarettes from the door hole and ran away. But before he could run out a few steps, he turned his head and looked at Xiang Youbao and shouted, "Senior Brother Xiang, where are you going? If Uncle Xie asked, how would I agree?"

"Just tell Uncle Xie, I'll go to the Six Kingdoms Hotel for a walk, and it's only three or four miles away. If I have nothing to do, I'll come back!"

"We don't care about the characters in the family?"

"We don't care about them, they can't run away - your senior brother, I just gave four snacks and a pot of tea to the characters in the private room, which will be enough for them to enjoy for a long time!"

"Didn't the medicine be placed in the tea and snacks? If someone doesn't drink tea and eat snacks, wouldn't this matter be exposed?"

"I said, why did you pour it out from the same mold as Jiuhouer? You have to break the casserole when you catch anything? You didn't add medicine to the tea or snacks, but there was something outside the teapot, and it was radiating out with the heat of the teapot. Even if a cow smelled two bowls of tea, he had to lie down!"

"Sir, please be careful... I heard from Brother Jiuhouer that if you don't make a good fight at the Six Kingdoms Hotel today, you have to sing the Six Kingdoms Grand Priest?"

"Okay, don't worry about me!"
