Late at night.
The wind in the desert sounded even more mournful.
It was like the wails of ghosts and the howls of wolves!
In a guest room of the Dragon Inn, a person was sitting in a wooden bathtub that was half the height of a person. His back was against the skylight, and there were a few pieces of clothes hanging on the edge of the bathtub, blocking his view.
If one looked in through the skylight, they could only see half a head. It was impossible to see who was soaking in the bathtub.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
Squatting on the roof, Jin Xiangyu had been staring at the half-head in the bathtub through the skylight for quite a while, his face full of suspicion.
She knew that Qiu Moyan was a woman. Normally, when a man saw her, it was impossible for him not to be moved. However, Qiu Moyan was unmoved.
But she seemed to be trying to verify something.
Hence, she gently opened the skylight.
Whoosh!
At the same time, a handful of hot water was splashed over, followed by a robe that spun and covered his head.
Gold Jade's expression changed.
Only then did she expect that the other party was prepared. It seemed that he had noticed her secretly observing from the roof from the beginning.
Just as she was about to escape, a hand passed through the spinning robe and grabbed her ankle. With a sudden tug, she was dragged into the room.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The moment he landed on the ground, Gold Jade's eyes flashed. He took out two willow leaf darts and threw them at the man.
Clang! Clang!
The willow leaf dart struck the blade and made a metallic sound.
"Lady Boss, you're in such a good mood. You're not sleeping at night and are peeping at me, a man, bathing?”Xing Tian pulled off the clothes that separated the two of them and grinned.
"…Why is it you?" Gold Jade was slightly startled.
Then, he suddenly reacted and his expression changed. He raised his white and flawless chin slightly and snorted with a trace of disdain and arrogance."Tsk, what's so good about a man bathing? What kind of man hasn't I seen before? Boring, let's go!"
After saying that, he was about to leave.
However, Xing Tian stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, Lady Boss. I think there's a man you've definitely never seen before.”
"Tsk, who is it? Could it be you?”Gold Jade was still full of disdain. He glanced at Xing Tian and then at Xing Tian's crotch. He raised two fingers and measured it.
Hey, hey, hey!
You're too much!
Am I that size? It was clearly more than twice as much!
After cursing in his heart for a long time, Xing Tian suppressed his anger and said,"Didn't you take a fancy to the wanted portrait in General Qianhu's hands today?”
"Is that true?" Gold Jade also raised her eyebrows, and then it rang. She did say that the person in the portrait was handsome, like a gigolo.
"Why? What does this have to do with you?" Jin Xiangyu put his hands on his hips and asked.
"I might be able to let you meet that man, whether you like him or the reward.”Xing Tian said," It's the Dragon Inn anyway. What business has it not done before? For example…a smear of red?"
Hearing this, Gold Jade's expression changed completely.
She was the one who killed A Touch of Red.
But only she knew.
How did this person know?
It was very strange. Ever since the person in front of him appeared, he had been very strange. It was as if nothing could escape his eyes, but he always pretended to be unclear about everything.
This was the first time Gold Jade had felt a strong sense of oppression.
"Who are you? Who was it? What do you want?"
"I'm just a passerby." Xing Tian said," Lady Boss, do you want to cooperate with me? I can let you meet Zhou Huaian. Whether you're going for the person or the reward, I have one condition. Take me to the tunnel."”
"Tunnel? What tunnel?" Gold Jade pretended not to know.
In fact, he was shocked.
Apart from herself, only the waiter, the shopkeeper, and the chef knew about the tunnel in the Dragon Inn. Other than that, no one else knew about the tunnel.
The person in front of him actually knew!
"What exactly do you want?" Gold Jade asked suspiciously and could not help but become a little cautious." Let me make it clear first. I don't have money. If you want people…I do have them, but I'm afraid you can't afford them."”
Xing Tian was speechless.
This woman was really seductive to the bone. Was that the only thing on her mind other than men?
It was only when Xing Tian explained the ins and outs of the matter that Jin Xiangyu finally understood.
It turned out that he needed to use the tunnel of the Dragon Inn to secretly send the two children out of seclusion.
He had done this kind of thing many times, but the benefits that Xing Tian could give were too strange.
Give her a person, and a man at that?
"You really don't want to see him?" Xing Tian urged again. He could not fall behind at such a critical time.
"That's fine." Gold Jade thought for a moment and nodded. He followed the two of them and jumped up to the roof through the skylight.
According to Qiu Moyan's instructions, Zhou Huaian should have arrived by now.
As expected, the two of them came to the roof and looked over. There were indeed people riding horses late at night.
When he appeared in front of the Dragon Gate Inn, the lights shone on him. He stood tall and straight, looking imposing.
In just an instant, it made Golden Jade sink.
Xing Tian shook his head and smiled. He turned around and returned to his room. The rest was up to Jin Xiangyu and Zhou Huaian to catch up.
As for Qiu Moyan, he was afraid that this woman was still standing far away, secretly watching Jin Xiangyu and Zhou Huaian talking.
This was a hurdle in her heart, and he could not help her.
It was said that in troubled times, one shouldn't talk about love between children. In fact, love between children in troubled times was even deeper…
As soon as Xing Tian returned to his room, He Hu, Tie Zhu, and the others came up to him. Seeing that Zhou Huaian and Qiu Moyan were not back yet, they could not help but feel worried.
One had to know that the sky in the desert could change at will. It was so late at night that it was likely that there would be a night rain.
Not long after, the door creaked open, and Zhou Huaian and Qiu Moyan entered.
"Huai An, this is Young Master Xing.”Qiu Moyan introduced.
"Greetings, young hero." Zhou Huaian cupped his fists and said," Mo Yan has already told me about your plan. I think it's best if we leave tonight. As for Cao Shaoqing, we'll kill him sooner or later!"”
"I'm afraid you won't be able to leave." Xing Tian shook his head." Don't you know the weather in the desert? It was bound to rain tonight, and the pursuers from the East Hall were about to arrive.”
"So fast?" Everyone was puzzled.
Just as they were talking, a bolt of lightning suddenly interrupted their conversation.
A moment later, heavy rain poured down.
The voices of the waiter and the shopkeeper could be heard from downstairs. They seemed to be using boards to set up the window sill and door frame. After all, the rain in the desert was accompanied by a fierce wind. If they were not careful, even the Dragon Gate Inn might collapse.
At the same time, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.
"You haven't opened the door after knocking for so long. Are you not doing business?”
