Previously, in the desert, he had been relying on the oasis to pluck fruits to satisfy his hunger. Just now, he was afraid that it was a human meat bun, so his stomach had already started rumbling from hunger.
Seeing that it was indeed a steamed bun, and it did not have the smell of knockout medicine, Wei Qing took a bite, "It smells very good."
Xiao Qingqian thought that perhaps Wei Qing was overthinking things and was about to pull Wei Qing back to her room.
But Wei Qing didn't believe that she should worry too much.
"I'm sure there must be some sort of darkroom in the kitchen."
"Qing`er, it's true that you're cautious, but you shouldn't go so far as to suspect others, right?"
Wei Qing looked at him without blinking, "Do you believe me or not!"
In any case, she had decided to eradicate this black shop, so that no one who passed by would be harmed.
After eating the steamed bun, Wei Qing felt that with the strength she had gained, the Lady Boss should let go of her guard and prepare to go to the kitchen to investigate.
Who knew …
Xiao Qingqian grabbed onto his wrist tightly, he stared straight at Wei Qing, "There's no need to continue messing around, after the sky is bright, we're going to set out again!"
"Xiao Qingqian, you are a dignified Prince Chu of the Northern Kingdom, and may even become the future ruler of the Northern Kingdom, how can you have such thoughts?"
If they were left alone, even more people would die here!
Looking at Wei Qing's indignant and confused eyes, Xiao Qingqian took a deep breath: "At the moment, nothing is more important than royal father."
"We've already delayed for so long, do you still care about delaying for a moment?"
Wei Qing was sure that if she went to the kitchen again, she would be able to find the secret room and expose the Lady Boss's evil deeds!
Xiao Qingqian had too many things he wanted to say to Wei Qing, but facing Wei Qing's shiny eyes, he felt as if sand was stuck in his throat, and couldn't seem to say it no matter what.
"Up to you!"
Although he was unwilling, Wei Qing was still very happy.
Once again, she sneaked into the kitchen, and Wei Qing smelled a faint smell of blood.
Xiao Qingqian was worried, so he followed them to the kitchen.
Smelling the smell of blood, Xiao Qingqian's eyebrows were twisted into a lump.
Could it be as Qing`er expected, there's a secret chamber within the kitchen?
Wei Qing was afraid that she would not be able to find the secret room. When she smelled the blood, she raised her eyebrows.
As long as he followed the scent of blood, he would definitely be able to determine the direction of the secret chamber!
Just as she expected, following the scent of blood, she soon determined the general direction of the dark room, which was near the stove.
Ning Mei thought for a bit, then grabbed the lid of the wok, and after a few sounds, she pulled Xiao Qingqian and hid to the side.
In the secret room, the two waiters that were picking out the bones heard the earth-shaking sound. They were shocked to hear that the knife in their hands had fallen to the ground.
The Lady Boss narrowed her eyes. Were these two still unwilling to give up?
He thought for a while, then went to the dark room and listened quietly.
There was no sound. The Lady Boss signaled the two waiters to continue their deboning while she listened attentively.
Wei Qing was about to smash the lid again, but she was stopped by Xiao Qingqian.
She glared at him, her eyes saying: Don't stop me, or I'll get angry with you!
Xiao Qingqian walked out of the kitchen, and when he returned, he held a few stones in his hands.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh ~ ~"
Three small stones fell onto the lid of the pot, creating an earth-shaking sound.
Wei Qing gave Xiao Qingqian a thumbs up and praised him.
In the secret room, the Lady Boss guessed that Wei Qing and the others must have already guessed that there was a secret room in the kitchen.
She told the two waiters to stop and make sure there were no more sounds.
For a moment, the two groups of people inside and outside the secret room held their breaths with rapt attention.
After around two hours, the Lady Boss was sure that Wei Qing and the others had given up, so she prepared to come out.
As soon as he came out, a sharp dagger appeared around his neck, which he then stabbed against her neck.
The Lady Boss's breathing stagnated, and the color of blood on her face retreated.
Wei Qing snorted, "You really are opening a underworld shop."
The Lady Boss was seen through by them, but she did not argue, and only laughed, looking at Wei Qing, "You're clever, Madam."
Wei Qing laughed even more meaningfully: "Ah Qian, send them to the officials!"
"Madame is too naive and laughable."
Wei Qing frowned, "How could I be so naive?"
"Even if Madame were to send me to see the officials, I would be able to easily exit in a few days and open up a new shop somewhere else."
Wei Qing then suddenly thought back to the times when she had gone out to visit Xiao Qingqian several times, when she had seen those dog officials who only knew how to bully the common people and did nothing.
"What should we do?"
Xiao Qingqian sealed the Lady Boss's acupuncture points and pulled her out.
This time, if Xiao Qingqian used his identity as the Prince Chu, he would definitely let Xiao Hanqi find out where they were.
It was impossible for him to send assassins to the capital even if he wanted to get back to the capital by surprise.
"Why do you do such a heartless thing?" Xiao Qingqian stared at the Lady Boss gloomily.
The Lady Boss softly said, "Take revenge for our people!"
Hearing that, Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian looked at each other, and then locked their gazes onto the Lady Boss's face at the same time.
The Lady Boss took a deep breath and said slowly, "I will always remember that massacre over ten years ago!"
Wei Qing's heart suddenly tightened as she clenched her hands into fists.
Just what kind of bloody event happened more than ten years ago that would cause the Lady Boss to turn into a homicidal maniac and even open a black shop that sold meat buns?
"I was originally a seedling border girl. More than ten years ago, my daughter was killed by you centripetal s! She died such a miserable death. Originally, I wanted to follow after my daughter, but hatred made me have to live on. "
As she spoke, her eyes were abnormally complicated. There was pain, sadness, anger, and hatred.
These emotions intertwined together, causing her exquisite face to look somewhat malevolent.
The light in Wei Qing's eyes flickered unsteadily.
The Lady Boss was actually a seedling border girl!
"Do you remember who it was?"
Wei Qing wanted to find out if there were still people with the seedling border's Good Lich Gu. And, who exactly wanted to kill all the people from the seedling border back then?
The Lady Boss sneered. However, there were still tears flowing down her face.
Seeing her like this, Wei Qing actually felt her heart clogging up.
"If I knew, why would I be hiding here?" The Lady Boss seemed to have been suppressed for a long time. Her words were like a roar.
The two servants were also subdued by Xiao Qingqian, the two of them quietly looked at the boss lady, one of them sobbed, "Boss lady, don't be sad."
Xiao Qingqian and Wei Qing looked at each other, then asked: "Do you know the seedling border Voodoo Gu technique?"
The Lady Boss coldly stared at the two of them. The hatred in her eyes became stronger and stronger. "You two are bastards!"
Being scolded for no reason, Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian did not get angry.
After a moment of silence, Wei Qing probed: "More than ten years ago, did the person who massacred your entire clan of seedling border say such a thing?"
