Chapter 384

In fact, it's not too much to ask, but the tone of the sophomore is not right, on the contrary, it means some blame.

Is he in charge of whether the guests want charcoal pots or not?

Xue tingji immediately straightened his face, "what's the matter with you?"

The sophomore knows that he is impolite. It's just strange to say that he made amends. In this cold day, he didn't need to freeze the charcoal basin all night. Why.

This is Pei Ming silently put down his comb and looked at the little two in the mirror. "Your charcoal has been fumigated so much that it hurts your head. How nice to ask us?"

I don't know if she's so thoughtful. She thinks that the expression of the second child's relief is full of another meaning. "Oh, it's like this. It's really a slight. I'll definitely give you the best charcoal tonight!"

"No need." She got up and sat down at the table, glanced at the breakfast she had sent, and seemed dissatisfied. "We northerners are not so afraid of the cold, so we don't bother you."

The second child said nothing more and stepped back angrily. When he closed the door, he suddenly remembered, "are you going to buy some goods for a while? Would you like a little help to lead the way? "

Xue tingji waved him away impatiently, "as long as the three li Dang is not nine or eighteen bends, you can find it. It's less in the way."

After the second child closed the door and slipped away, they turned their eyes to the charcoal pot. Is there a problem?

It's time to start. It's reasonable that Jin Zhan and Pei Xiao should be here long ago, but there is no movement today. Pei Ming feels strange and goes to the next room to have a look.

Who knows, she was so surprised that she even forgot to speak.

Pei Xiao and Jin Zhan are eating breakfast. They look numb and stiff. The bowl is empty, but they don't stop. Their chewing action looks very strange.

Pei Ming didn't yell to attract people's attention. Instead, he quickly closed the door, picked up the teapot and threw it at them. Only then did they wake up and look at her blankly, "what's the matter?"

"Don't you feel it?" Pei Ming, worried, threw the teapot back. "What were you doing just now?"

Jin Zhan and Pei Xiao looked at each other, looked at the breakfast in front of them, and then they were stunned and replied: "eat How about dinner? "

But don't they know how scary it was when they were eating? Pei Ming didn't say anything more. He took marigold's face and patted it. "You're sleepy. Wake up. It's time to go to Sanli."

After several people have cleaned up, when leaving the guest house, Pei Ming's Yu Guang notices that the shopkeeper is looking at them, which makes her feel bad all over.

In order to understand the local people's situation, they did not take a carriage. Instead, they went on foot. There was nothing unusual they saw along the way. However, Pei Ming still felt that something was wrong and called Jin Zhan to come.

"Did you make charcoal pots last night?"

Marigold realized the question, "what's the matter

Sure enough, they still don't know. As he walked, Pei Ming paid attention to his side and whispered, "you may have been drugged. Shh - don't show it. I'll talk to you later in the evening."

At this moment, Xue tingji suddenly holds Pei Ming's hand, and he doesn't look askance, but Pei Ming knows what he has found.

"Amin, the merchants and residents here, seem to dislike us very much."

That's right. This is what Pei Ming noticed before. It seems that the residents here are not friendly to foreigners. They don't even yell at the guests or even look at them.

It's like They were full of hostility, disgusted and helpless, if it wasn't for the foreign businessmen who robbed them of something.

It can only be that people can't see the transactions here.

In order to verify this conjecture, Xue tingji deliberately inquired about the location of Sanli Dang from a peddler. When he saw that the peddler was disgusted with him, he pointed at random and turned away.

Xue tingji looks back at Pei Ming and goes on in silence.

I thought sanlidang was a big market like the eastern and Western markets in the Imperial City, but it was a mysterious gate. I could hear the noise inside the gate. There was no guard outside the gate, so I only looked at the person who could not enter.

However, what we saw when we pushed the door in made everyone look silly.

The pattern behind the door is similar to that of an ordinary market, but the cages are packed in rows, and the cages are closed It's all human.

Most of them are young women, and there are also teenagers and children. They all hang their heads and don't move, don't cry, don't shout, they are like unconscious dummies. The sunlight can only shine in a little, and the dark light makes it all more solemn.

In addition to these "goods", the rest are buyers and sellers. Pei Ming even heard a buyer complain that the goods are too dull.

"You said you could wake up last time. As a result, those people were stupid later. Damn, I lost money!"

The seller hurriedly made amends, "Oh, that last time it was not careful to lower the weight, this time you look at the goods, this appearance, silly you can't lose!"

All this makes Pei Mingxin feel chilly. He remembers that he once led Wang Qiyao and Cheng Yan to sell people in revengeAlthough all the girls were safe in the end, she was still frightened by the scene.

If at that time she really did not care about the lives of those children, then at this moment, she is the same as those people evil spirit.

With the rapid heartbeat, the tingling sensation suddenly hit, Xue tingji see her heart disease again, quickly took out the medicine bottle.

But just at this time, a young man who had just been pulled out of the cage suddenly went mad and rushed out of the crowd and rushed straight at Xue ting.

Out of instinct, Xue Ting uses his arm to protect Pei Ming behind him, but the young man's goal is the medicine bottle in his hand. After seizing it, he runs away quickly and makes an uproar in the crowded market.

That's Ah Ming's life-saving drug! Xue Ting rushes after him by gritting his teeth. Pei Xiao also helps him. Jin Zhan helps Pei Mingxian sit down on the spot.

Pei Ming clenched his shirt tightly and yelled at the direction they left: "even people are caught alive!"

Then he tried to calm his breath, hold back the pain of his heart, and let marigold bring the young buyer to him.

"Your goods You've bumped into me. Can you compensate me? "

As soon as the buyer saw that he was in trouble, he made a blunder. "It's none of my business. It's not my order."

As soon as he said this, marigold immediately pulled out his waist knife and put it in front of the knave's neck. With Pei Ming's command, he immediately saw the blood!

I'm afraid that the rogue has never seen such a fierce woman in his life. He suddenly lost his pride and didn't dare to speak any more. At this time, a fat man in Royal dress came up, appeased the naughty buyer first, and then bowed to Pei Ming with a smile.

"I'm the city governor of sanlidang. I'll make amends for this lady."
