1607: C1607 Lies

C1607 Lies

Ye Hong Tian stood at the back of the crowd, listening to their discussion. A cold smile appeared on his face as he ignored them and looked at the shopkeeper sitting behind the counter.

The shopkeeper was the shopkeeper who had attacked Ye Hong Tian. Ye Hong Tian had never thought that the shopkeeper would dare to come back and run the inn.

"Manager, do you still have empty rooms in this inn?" Ye Hongtian slightly changed his voice and asked.

The shopkeeper slightly opened his eyes when he heard that. He glanced at Ye Hong Tian and then closed his eyes again. He asked back, "Are you new here? What did you do outside?"

Ye Hong Tian was surprised. He remembered that the shopkeeper had asked him the same thing when he first came here.

"I didn't do anything wrong. I just killed a few warriors of the Prynne, but I'm not new here. I've already stayed in the no man's land for a while." Ye Hong Tian replied.

Hearing Ye Hongtian's reply, this shopkeeper sized up Ye Hongtian from head to toe. Then, he placed the two keys on the counter and said, "There are still two rooms left on the second floor. If you stay, one room will cost two pieces of middle-grade essence crystals per day."

Hearing this shockingly expensive price again, the corners of Ye Hong Tian's mouth twitched. Recalling the environment of this inn's room, two pieces of middle-grade essence crystals were truly not worth it.

"This price is indeed a little expensive. Forget about staying in the inn. Can this inn order dishes? I will leave after I eat something."

After saying that, Ye Hongtian walked to the corner of the first floor and sat down. He looked around and not long after, the innkeeper of the inn walked towards him with two dishes.

"Well, I haven't ordered anything yet. What are these two dishes?" Ye Hong Tian looked at the innkeeper and asked in confusion.

The shopkeeper put the two dishes on the table, then took out two bottles of wine from his Cosmos Sack. He poured a cup for Ye Hongtian and placed the cup in front of Ye Hongtian.

"I basically know all the people in the outer perimeter of the Lawless District, but I have no influence on you. I guess you must have come from the depths of the No Law Zone. People who can live in that area for a period of time are not ordinary people. So I wanted to make friends with you. These two dishes are my treat. So eat it." The innkeeper took a sip of the wine in his cup and said to Ye Hong Tian.

Ye Hong Tian slightly narrowed his eyes when he heard that. A dangerous light flashed in his eyes. However, he had a double mask covering his face, so the innkeeper could not sense the dangerous aura at all.

He raised the cup in front of him, and stared at the wine inside. Then, he looked at the two side dishes on the table. From the wine and the side dishes... Ye Hong Tian could clearly see a dark green light flashing. This was something that only the Ten Thousand Poison Body and people who were proficient in the Poison Law could see.

"Did this fellow recognize me? Or was it that they only wanted to slaughter this' newbie 'of mine? Since that's the case, I'll play along. I'd like to see what you want to do. "

With this thought in mind, Ye Hongtian slightly lifted the mask on his face and drank the wine in the cup. He picked up the food and slowly ate. Every time he put the food in his mouth, he had to put on the mask again to ensure that his appearance would not be seen.

Fifteen minutes later, the shopkeeper who saw Ye Hong Tian eating the food revealed a surprised expression. Ye Hong Tian noticed that expression and immediately understood that the time had come. He suddenly lay down on the table.

"Huh? Brother? Brother! What's wrong? Could it be that you can't drink and get drunk?" The shopkeeper stood up and patted Ye Hong Tian's back as he asked.

Seeing that Ye Hongtian didn't respond, the manager muttered and winked at the two big men at the table. Then the two big men stood up and walked to Ye Hongtian's side.

"Brother? Well, it seems that this brother won't wake up. Let's help him upstairs first." The shopkeeper sighed and said.

After saying that, the two big men each grabbed one of Ye Hongtian's arms and lifted him up. Then, they walked upstairs with the manager.

In a room on the second floor, Ye Hong Tian was thrown onto the bed by the two big men. After that, the two big men stood at the door and left the shopkeeper in the room with Ye Hong Tian.

The manager tied Ye Hong Tian up with a very long rope and then slapped him hard to wake him up.

"Hmm? Where is this place? Hiss! Why does my face hurt so much?"

Ye Hong Tian used his best acting skills. After opening his eyes, he looked around for a while. Then, he started to pay attention to the slap on his face.

The shopkeeper didn't doubt Ye Hong Tian pretending to be unconscious. He said with a sarcastic smile, "You dare to kill people from the Prynne Society? You are courting death. Even if you hide in the no man's area, you won't be able to survive. "

"You! Why did you tie me up?! Do you want to hand me over to the Prynne Society?! " Ye Hong Tian asked in a panic.

The moment these words came out, the shopkeeper laughed loudly. He took out a tattered talisman from his Cosmos Sack and waved it in front of Ye Hong Tian. Then, he said to the talisman, "The Lawless Area discovered the person who assassinated the Prynne Society's martial artists."

After saying this to the talisman paper, the shopkeeper said to Ye Hong Tian, "Do you know what this is? This was a sound transmitting talisman to the White Orchid Association! As long as I ignite him, the sound transmitting talisman will be sent to the Prynne Society's president. At that time, the Prynne Society's martial practitioners will come and take you back."

"What?! Why did you do that?! Didn't we also come to the Lawless District to seek refuge? What good would it do you? " Ye Hong Tian shouted.0

"Benefits? Of course there are. You have been in the no man's land for a while, have you never heard of a warrant? This search party is me! As long as I capture you martial artists who have offended the Prynne and hand them over to the Prynne, the Prynne Society will give me many benefits. The reason why I can live like this in the no man's land is also because Prynne will give me benefits, what do you think? You didn't expect this, did you!?"

After the innkeeper finished speaking, Ye Hong Tian sat up from the bed. The panic he had felt earlier disappeared in an instant. Now, it gave people a very dangerous feeling.

"So that's how it is. No wonder you want to capture me when we have no grudges. It's a pity that you chose the wrong person."

As he spoke, Ye Hongtian shook lightly and broke the rope that tied him up. He looked at the innkeeper with a very cold gaze. This cold gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the two layers of masks. The innkeeper couldn't help but shiver.

"How is that possible?! You clearly ate a dish that contains sedative. That is the sedative that Bai Lan will give you. How can it not have any effect?! You... " The innkeeper said in disbelief.

Just as he couldn't believe it, Ye Hongtian had already taken off the mask on the outside, revealing the white mask underneath. When he saw the white mask, the innkeeper opened his eyes wide and shut his mouth.
