The waiter looked in the direction Ye Chen pointed and said,"You mean Mr. Gao? He's…"
At this moment, the door of the shop was opened again. A cold wind blew in, accompanied by the whistling of the wind and the snow.
The person was wearing a black robe and a bamboo hat on his head. When the tavern staff saw this person appear, their faces were filled with joy. The waiter was also overjoyed. Then, the waiter hurriedly ran over and said,"Yo, customer, it's freezing outside. Please come in and sit.”
The black-robed man did not say a word. Then, he slowly walked toward Gao Jianli and said,""You are Gao Jianli? Waiter, get him ten catties of wine…"
"Alright." The waiter sneered and hurriedly ran over with a jar of wine. The others in the tavern began to move slowly, reaching for their sword hilts. The sound of swords being pulled out could be heard.
The atmosphere instantly changed…
"I'll drink first as a toast." As he spoke, the black-robed man raised the bowl to his mouth.
Gao Jianli also raised his wine bowl and said,"Please."”
The black-robed man's wine bowl stopped by his mouth. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and killing intent instantly erupted.
The black-robed man was about to draw his sword when a cold light flashed and the candlelight flickered as if it was about to be extinguished.
"Clang clang…"
A cold light flashed, and everyone held their breaths. The candlelight returned to normal, illuminating the entire tavern.
Silence.
It was strangely quiet.
Gao Jianli slowly stood up and looked at the black-robed man. Then, he looked at the shop assistant and said,""Are you here to kill me? You too…"
With a click, the black-robed man's bamboo hat instantly opened, and a smooth cut that was as sharp as a ceramic tile appeared.
The black-robed man was surprised. He picked up the sword in his hand and looked at it. His entire body could not help but tremble. The bowl of wine in his hand also began to ripple. Only half of the sword was left, and the broken part seemed to have been cut flat.
" Yan Country's strong liquor can kill people who don't know how to drink it…" Gao Jianli took the wine bowl from Black Robe's hand and said coldly.
The black-robed man looked surprised. Then, he felt a pain in his chest and instantly couldn't breathe. He held his chest and looked at Gao Jianli in disbelief. He slowly fell to the ground with a thud.
The shop assistant was also in disbelief. His eyes were wide open like lanterns as he looked at Gao Jianli. All of a sudden, the wine jar cracked open with a loud crack, and all the wine inside fell to the ground.
The attendant looked at Gao Jianli. The other broken sword of the black-robed man had appeared in the attendant's chest, but blood had yet to come out. The shop assistant's mouth twitched, and then he fell to the ground with a thud.
The atmosphere instantly became tense, as tense as the strings of a zither. Ye Chen, on the other hand, was drinking in a corner, ignoring them.
" Gao Jianli, you really live up to your reputation. Many people thought that this operation was too much. Now, it seems that they have underestimated you…" At this moment, a man dressed in black in the tavern laughed.
"Are you here to kill me too?" Gao Jianli said coldly.
"Gao Jianli, His Majesty is very unhappy that you killed a minister of the State of Qin. He wants to invite Mister Gao to Xianyang.”The black-robed man said.
"Minister of Qin?" Gao Jianli asked coldly. I only remember killing a small, unremarkable fish.”
As he spoke, Gao Jianli stood up and was about to leave.
"It's snowing heavily outside. Why don't you stay and get drunk?”The black-robed man said. As he spoke, everyone in the tavern, except for Ye Chen and the other man who was lying on the table beside him, drew their swords and stood up.
"The wine in Yan Country is too expensive. You can't afford it.”Gao Jianli looked at those people coldly and said.
"Fortunately, there are many of us here. If everyone gathers together, we can also drink a little.”The black-robed man stood with his hands behind his back and slowly walked over. He still had a smile on his face as he spoke indifferently.
"Well said, let's get drunk. Waiter, bring me wine. Bring me as much as you have.”At this moment, the man lying on the table raised his right hand high and said in a daze,
As he spoke, the man stood up drunkenly and turned around to look at his surroundings."The drinker didn't fall, but the seller did? Alright, if that's the case, I'll get the good wine myself.”
Ye Chen looked at the man in shock but quickly calmed down."It's really effortless to find it.”
After that, he started drinking quietly again. This person was the person Ye Chen was looking for, Jing Ke.
Perhaps the people around them did not notice Ye Chen in the corner. At this moment, Jing Ke was already drunk when he saw a bowl of wine on the table in front of Gao Jianli.
"Wine…so the good wine is here…hehe."”As she spoke, she lost her balance and walked towards the wine in front of Gao Jianli, as if she wanted to fall.
"Pu…Hahaha." When Ye Chen saw Jing Ke like this, he spat out the wine in his mouth and laughed loudly.
Everyone sensed someone behind them and turned to look in Ye Chen's direction. When Gao Jianli saw Ye Chen, he was shocked but did not say anything. He just stared at Ye Chen, thinking about something.
As Jing Ke pretended to be drunk and went to get the wine, he glanced at Ye Chen. When he saw Ye Chen, Jing Ke's lips curled up and he continued to get his wine.
