Chapter 104 Banquet, Tie Lao's accidental discovery? 【14, please subscribe】
at dusk
Dozens of people from the forging camp after work went straight to the Wangjiang Building in a lively manner. They asked for a full eight tables in the lobby on the second floor before all the people were arranged.
Another dinner treat for promotion!
Wei Han's eyes drifted a little, and various memories came to mind.
At the beginning, he and all the apprentices in the pharmacy, including his brother Xie Chengyong, often went out to eat and drink together, and everything was vividly remembered as if it was yesterday.
"Everyone, what do you eat?"
The clerk asked Yan Jingshan politely, apparently thinking that he was the one to call the shots.
Yan Jingshan waved his hands impatiently and did not speak.
Wei Han said in a familiar way: "Each table has a pot of medicinal food, six hot dishes, five cold dishes, and two bottles of 30-year-old Lihuabai. Hurry up!"
"Okay, sir, wait a moment!"
The waiter in the store immediately went down cheerfully to prepare.
Yan Jingshan couldn't help frowning and said: "Xiao Fei, isn't your ordering a bit exaggerated? How much does eight tables of dishes cost? Your salary is not much, and you have to save to marry a wife."
"Yes, Brother Fei, you don't need to order so much!"
"Let's eat whatever we want, why waste it."
"Can you finish eating so many dishes?"
Everyone also pretended to dissuade.
Wei Han smiled and said indifferently: "The dishes in the lobby of Wangjiang Tower are not expensive, and a table is only three or five taels when it is full. My parents died early and left some money, and the wages will skyrocket next month. I can still afford a few tables of food, at worst, I’ll find some acquaintances to wipe some change later, the most important thing is for everyone to eat and drink well.”
"Okay, Xiaofei is rich and generous, I will pay if the bill is not enough later!"
"That's right, it's just a few tables of wine and food, we can still afford it."
"The wine is here, let's have a few glasses first, come here!"
Everyone eagerly tossed and exchanged cups, and the atmosphere was rich.
Wei Han is talented and gentle, and his popularity is very good. There are quite a few people who flatter him or make friends with him sincerely. Even Yan Jingshan had a few drinks together.
After a while, all the dishes are served!
The dishes in Wangjianglou are pretty good.
All kinds of mountain delicacies and river crabs were served frequently. Although the food in the forging camp was good, it was not as exquisite as the restaurant, and everyone present was full of oil.
When the cups are served, the atmosphere is even more enthusiastic!
But Wei Han rolled his eyes and found a familiar figure on the street.
"Iron old?"
Wei Han frowned slightly, and immediately recognized the other party.
At this moment, the night was already dark, and there were not many pedestrians on the street, so Tie Lao's figure was very recognizable.
He didn't bring anything, as if he was out for a stroll, he just walked forward slowly with his hands behind his back.
In the past at this time, he must have gone to the black market to set up a stall.
But since the rebels occupied Qingshan County, the black market has been semi-paralyzed.
The rebel army not only imposed a curfew but also arrested many criminals. Who else would dare to hang out in the black market? Therefore, Tie Lao's business should have stopped for a few months.
Where is he going tonight? Wei Han was a little puzzled!
But just as he was meditating, he saw two figures following Tie Lao unhurriedly. They were a man and a woman, and they were both masters in terms of their footsteps and movements.
"Why?"
Wei Han immediately became interested.
Is the old iron man being targeted?
The identity of this old man is very mysterious, and he was probably a decisive character when he was young. It is not surprising that some enemies come to him.
Do you want to go down to remind me, or help?
Wei Han pondered for a moment and quickly denied his thoughts.
Tie Lao is as smart as a ghost. It is impossible not to know that someone is following him. After all, he is an old Jianghu for decades, and he will only be a disservice in the past.
Maybe he will lead people into a trap to kill him, so he really doesn't need to worry about it.
But Wei Han had been favored by Tie Lao, so it was not good to ignore him. He used the opportunity of going to the latrine to attract a small bird, and after explaining it, it flew into the night.
It will keep an eye on it at high altitude, if there is a real fight or something goes wrong, it will not be too late for Wei Han to go to the rescue.
After a while of toasting!
Wei Han and the others ate and drank until 3:00 pm.
Most of the people present were already drunk, only a few people were still barely sober.
Wei Han directly recruited the waiter in the shop, ordered the restaurant to help call the carriage, and after sending people to the carriage in twos and threes, he paid the bill and left with confidence.
At this moment, there was a bang, and a burst of fireworks rose from the ground, and finally exploded directly in mid-air, forming a blood-red lotus pattern that lasted for a long time, which directly alarmed the people in the city.
"Hurry up, go to the east of the city, hurry up!"
"Run faster, don't dawdle!"
"If you let the thief go, I'll ask you guys."
On the street, a group of cavalry roared past.
The huge movement frightened the people in the whole city into panic.
The major restaurants did not dare to continue to operate, and chose to close down one after another.
At this time, if you want to be safe, you must not go to the streets. You can either go home quickly because you have a waist card, or stay in a restaurant, and no one will chase you away.
Wei Han naturally wouldn't stay in a restaurant!
He took off his coat and threw it away, and then disguised himself as a middle-aged villain before rushing to the battle site by detour.
Passing by the small courtyard where Tie Lao used to live, Wei Han stopped a long way away, and hid at the entrance of a small alley to observe. Sure enough, he found many people watching him.
"It's such a grand occasion, with people following and encircling by large armies!"
"Even his disguised lair is followed by seven or eight people. Could it be that Old Man Iron's enemy is King Xiao?"
"That's right, besides them, who else can mobilize troops in the city."
Wei Han squinted his eyes and muttered to himself.
He was thinking what should he do now?
Do you go home on your own, or get involved?
If you get involved, what should you do?
It is absolutely impossible to directly kill and go to the east of the city to help. If you intervene rashly, it will only make the situation worse. Moreover, Wei Han does not believe that Tie Lao will be taken down so easily.
Now the city gate must have been sealed!
According to this old man's personality, once he escapes, he will definitely run to his safest lair, so where is his lair?
The small courtyard in front of him was obviously just his disguise.
And his lair must not be too far from the small yard.
"Forget it, let's get rid of these stalking eyes and ears first!"
"Once old man Tie comes back, it won't be difficult for the little bird to find him."
A cold light flashed in Wei Han's eyes, which directly turned into an afterimage!
Silently approaching the stalking warrior in an attic opposite the small courtyard.
There are three tracking points here, and a total of seven people are watching here, which shows how much they care about Tie Lao.
Now what Wei Han has to do is to quietly kill them all!
If they accidentally send out a signal, it will easily alarm more people.
Now there are three people in this attic, two men and one woman. They stared at the bottom with burning eyes, and they didn't even realize that they were being watched, let alone that Wei Han was right behind them.
"Phew!"
Wei Han raised his hand and turned it over, and the three steel needles were thrown out.
The three of them had no time to react at such a close distance, and they were already killed by his full-level concealed weapon technique. Three steel needles easily penetrated their heads, and the three of them still stared wide-eyed until they died.
"Feel sorry!"
Wei Han casually picked up the limp bodies of the three people, rushed directly to the remaining two places, and beheaded all the seven people who were following him in a short while.
