Chapter 20 Actually Came to Linyin City

To actually run directly to Linyin City, they're so eager to attack us... Brother You thought to himself. He quickly replied to the message, agreeing on a location with the other party, setting the time an hour later because he claimed to be busy at the moment.

Afterward, Brother You quickly logged into the game and notified everyone of this news. He wanted to use this hour to understand the terrain beforehand to make some preparations.

"A tavern? Not bad." Han Jia Gongzi was very fond of the agreed location. When players arrange to meet, they usually choose a tavern.

"Everyone knows Yin Yue, but this kid might not show his true face. Everyone, keep an eye out for a masked level 36 knight, especially someone equipped with 'Sword Mastery' equipment," Brother You reminded everyone.

"But he also knows us!" Yu Tian Shenming said.

"Everyone mask your faces. We don't even need to go into the tavern; we'll just wait outside," Brother You suggested.

"Wait, what if Yin Yue doesn't come himself? What if he asks a friend to come? What do we do?" Zhan Wushang suddenly thought of this.

"A friend? Does he even have any friends?" Han Jia Gongzi sneered at this. Of course, he had already considered these details when he proposed the plan. He deliberately didn't mention them, waiting for someone to suddenly realize it so he could mock them. Zhan Wushang was unlucky enough to fall for it and slapped himself in the face.

Damn it, he's too talkative! Zhan Wushang thought, how many times has he sworn not to question, suggest, or ask about the plans proposed by this guy? Why can't he remember!

Even Han Jia Gongzi hadn't been to the agreed-upon Xianglin Tavern. The group inquired separately and finally found it with great difficulty, only to discover that the tavern was quite different from what they had imagined.

The Xianglin Tavern was located in a remote area, twisting and turning to the end of a dead alley. There was no constant stream of people outside, nor were there any players who liked to set up stalls selling miscellaneous goods at the entrance of the tavern.

Firstly, there wasn't much foot traffic here, and secondly, the alley was too narrow, with little space for people to set up stalls. Han Jia Gongzi's original plan was for everyone to disguise themselves as stall vendors and directly launch an attack when Yin Yue arrived, but it now seemed that this ambush method was impossible. Setting up a stall here would instead arouse suspicion, and Yin Yue's fox-like nature might detect something amiss.

And the houses on both sides of the alley were low, so people couldn't hide on them; they would be seen if they were even slightly far away. As a result, there was only one option: to go inside the tavern.

"Let's go in!" After standing at the entrance of the alley and turning to stone for a while, Han Jia Gongzi led the group into the tavern.

Unexpectedly, although the tavern was located in a remote area and was not large, there were quite a few people inside. However, contrary to the noisy scenes in ordinary taverns, this small tavern nestled in a corner of Linyin City, which most people were too lazy to come to, was actually the favorite of Linyin City's couple players.

Inside, pairs of men and women were holding hands and whispering to each other, oblivious to the world around them. Their mouths were moving, and they were smiling, but there were no chaotic sounds coming out. The five of them entered in one breath, attracting everyone's attention, with surprised expressions on their faces. Obviously, five masked men were very out of place in this tavern.

Yu Tian Shenming and Zhan Wushang showed envious expressions, Jian Gui and Brother You were more embarrassed, while Han Jia Gongzi was even more oblivious to the world than those couples in love, breaking the silence in the tavern with one sentence: "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen masked people before?" After speaking, he instructed the tavern NPC to bring wine, and then walked towards the largest wine table.

Everyone couldn't help but lower their heads, even Jian Gui and the other three.

"Ahem, I'll go to the entrance to keep watch!" Jian Gui was already uncomfortable with the atmosphere of this tavern, and Han Jia Gongzi even made such a scene. With a flash of inspiration, he sent this message in the channel and slipped out, squatting in the corner of the alley and activating stealth.

"I want to learn properly!" Yu Tian Shenming expressed his attitude, and received a positive response from Zhan Wushang. The two chose a pair of couples who looked the most harmonious and well-matched from among the many couples, and sat down at the wine table next to them. They had just perked up their ears, ready to learn what people were talking about, when the two of them stood up and rushed out of the tavern, leaving the two of them staring at each other in confusion.

Brother You's performance was more ordinary, inconspicuously arriving at Han Jia Gongzi's table, sitting down silently, and not ordering any wine. He looked at Han Jia Gongzi and said, "I want to see how you drink with your face covered."

Han Jia Gongzi raised his eyebrows, seemingly smiling contemptuously, and then calmly took out a straw from his pocket and put it into the wine bottle.

Brother You took a deep breath and gave Han Jia Gongzi a thumbs up: "Awesome!" After speaking, he got up and sat down at the second table on the left hand side of the entrance, which was the position they had agreed to meet at. After settling down, he nodded towards Han Jia Gongzi, everything was proceeding according to their plan.

A few minutes later, Yu Tian Shenming and Zhan Wushang lewdly commented on every girl in the tavern, scaring away a third of the people. Han Jia Gongzi drank indifferently with a straw in his mouth, scaring away a third of the people. Brother You didn't say a word, didn't order wine, didn't move, silently like a killer, scaring away a third of the people.

A few minutes later, there were only four people left in the tavern.

Jian Gui outside the tavern sent a message of doubt: "Why did everyone leave?"

The answer was just two words: "Aura." Supplemental answer: "Too strong."

After that, two more couples came one after another. The first couple took one look at the strange scene and turned around and left. The second couple was slightly slower, came in and sat for a while before feeling uncomfortable and leaving.

No one cared about these things anymore, everyone was staring at the time. Time passed by minute by minute, and there were only five minutes left until the time Brother You had agreed with the other party.

"Someone's coming!!" Jian Gui sent a message.

"How many people?"

"One, but it doesn't seem to be a knight." The distance was still far, and Jian Gui couldn't use Appraisal Technique. Moreover, using Appraisal Technique in stealth would expose himself, so Jian Gui could only make a slight judgment based on the other party's attire.

"If you confirm his identity, Jian Gui, just kill him, why do you need us to take action?" Yu Tian Shenming said in the tavern.

"It's... it's a priest!!!" Jian Gui finally saw the other party's attire clearly, a standard priest's robe.

"Could it be that this kid is deliberately mystifying things?" The group was puzzled. It wasn't impossible for a knight to wear priest's equipment. They knew that Jian Gui couldn't use Appraisal Technique now, so he could only look at the appearance.

As a result, the person took a few more steps closer, and Jian Gui directly called out the other party's name: "It's Hong Chen Yi Xiao."

"How could it be him!" Brother You was stunned.

"He can certainly be considered Yin Yue's friend now. It's a pity that this guy who isn't afraid of losing levels came," Han Jia Gongzi sighed.

"Coming over."

"At the door."

"Going in."

Jian Gui sent three messages in a row, and Han Jia Gongzi only replied with one: "Stay where you are, continue to stealth and don't move."

The tavern door creaked and was pushed open, and Ye Xiao Wu stepped in, glanced at the four people distributed in three positions in the tavern, and smiled: "Sure enough, it's you."

"Oh? You knew it long ago?" Han Jia Gongzi didn't seem too surprised, he tore off his mask and threw away the straw. Sure enough, it was more enjoyable to drink like this.

Ye Xiao Wu's gaze swept over the four people: "Which one of you contacted me?"

"It's me." Brother You didn't hide it and admitted it.

Ye Xiao Wu shook his head: "I don't know of any equipment called 'General's Ring' in this game."

Brother You was stunned and embarrassed. He didn't expect to reveal a flaw because of this. He knew that he shouldn't have been so lazy and should have inquired about a real piece of equipment... Although this equipment was rare, like asking about the Sword of the King back then, asking Mang Mang would definitely know what Yin Yue was using at that time. He only blamed himself for identifying the other party as Yin Yue at that time.

"You're quite familiar with the game, it seems you really are someone who knows a lot of inside information," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"A little bit," Ye Xiao Wu said lightly.

"You have so much knowledge, and you still run around in the game, aren't you afraid of danger?" Han Jia Gongzi said.

Of course, Ye Xiao Wu understood what he meant and said calmly: "I have my limits."

"What's the situation outside?" Han Jia Gongzi asked Jian Gui.

"No situation," Jian Gui replied.

Han Jia Gongzi got up and waved his hand casually: "Kill him, let's go."

Ye Xiao Wu smiled: "It's not so easy to kill me." Before Yu Tian Shenming and Zhan Wushang could make a move, Ye Xiao Wu had already disappeared with a flash of white light.

"Another teleport!!" The two were depressed.

"It may also be the Chasing Wind Emblem," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"He also has..."

"Apple Cider Vinegar has it, so he can naturally borrow it to use," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"This guy, he came here just to say a few words, and then teleported away, why, deliberately teasing us??" Yu Tian Shenming was a little puzzled.

"Perhaps there's already an ambush outside," Brother You said.

"That's right, since he knew this was a trap, he might use a counter-plot to make arrangements," Zhan Wushang said.

Han Jia Gongzi shook his head: "If that's the case, he doesn't need to come out and play a disappearing act again. His ambush may have been set up before we arrived."

"Then what did he come all the way here for? Just to tease us like Yu Tian said? Besides little kids like Yu Tian, who would be so bored!" Zhan Wushang said.

"Get lost, you old geezer," Yu Tian Shenming cursed, and the two argued.

"Let's leave first," Han Jia Gongzi picked up the wine bottle on the table and went out. Jian Gui outside the door had also given up stealth at this time, looking at this long and narrow alley, everyone couldn't help but feel that it was safer and more direct to go over the roof.

The five climbed onto the roof one after another, looking around, but didn't find anything abnormal at all.

"There really isn't an ambush..." Brother You was a little unconvinced.

"What the hell is this guy up to?" Yu Tian Shenming muttered.

"Could it really be as childish as Yu Tian?" Zhan Wushang said.

"Go to your mother," Yu Tian Shenming cursed.

Jian Gui didn't express any opinion, but looked at Han Jia Gongzi.

"Don't worry, everything is under this master's control," Han Jia Gongzi finished the last drop of wine in the bottle.
