When Guo Baiyu and Zhao Renshu arrived, the fighting was already over. The team explained that a female ghost flew from room to room and scared them to death. They just defended themselves from ghost.
Xiao Hui, "How is your stomach?" She looked at Zhao Renshu.
Zhao Renshu awkwardly answered, "Good."
Xiao Dan, "And yours?" She looked at Guo Baiyu.
Guo Baiyu, "Mine is also good."
Zhao Renshu turned and walked back to the storage room. Then he said, "I'll take night watch first."
Guo Baiyu, "Everyone should rest. I will stay with him."
When everyone was still standing outside, Guo Baiyu followed Zhao Renshu.
Guo Baiyu and Zhao Renshu returned to the storage room. The door is open. The two men looked at each other and worried. Both of them ran into the storage room, Ping'an is nowhere to be found. Gou Baiyu picked up the fallen talisman from the ground.
Zhao Renshu said angrily, "This is not a ghost, but a human." He hit the wall with his left fist. "Damn it...."
Guo Baiyu, "There is a rotten egg among us."
Zhao Renshu felt frustrated, "Why Ping'an? I even gave her a mark."
After all the noise disappeared, the innkeeper and some guests rushed into the back where the four rooms located. Guo Baiyu and Zhao Renshu joined the group at the same time when the innkeeper approached with ten other guests.
Zhao Renshu said angrily, "There is a rotten egg among us."
Guo Baiyu, "Now call everyone into the dining hall."
In the dining room, the group of friends and ten guests were waiting for other guests to join. Zhao Renshu could not remain still. He walked back and forth between the crowd and the main entrance. On the other hand, Guo Baiyu is exactly the opposite. He sat drinking tea very quietly, waiting patiently for the guests.
Once everyone is in the dinning hall. An angry Zhao Renshu walked towards the people and stared into their faces.
Zhao Renshu stared at the group of people angrily, like a tiger who is about to kill his prey. He said, "I know one of you is a spy." He gritted his teeth. "Who is the spy among you? Now confess your guilt... If you confess now, I can still spare your life." He clenched his fists tightly. "If I find out on my own, I will kill you."
Everyone remained silent.
Zhao Renshu, "Very well, since no one is confessing, then I will count to three, and you better show yourself after I counted three." Even after Zhao Renshu finished counting, no one spoke.
Guo Baiyu deliberately dropped his teacup onto the floor, and the cracking sound of the teacup shocked the people in the main dining hall. Guo Baiyu stood up and walked slowly towards the group of people. He took out the paper talisman he picked up from the ground at the storage room from inside his robe. He made sure that everyone could see the talisman he was holding.
Guo Baiyu said coldly, "Very well, since no one confess. I will send this talisman out at you." He stared at a group of guests and employees coldly.
Zhao Renshu looked at Guo Baiyu strangely. In Zhao Renshu's mind, he was thinking: What the hell are you doing? That is a ghost talisman, which is useless to humans. It is such a stupid useless act." He shook his head at Guo Baiyu.
Guo Baiyu, "This talisman is call 'acupuncture death'. He looked directly at the gathered people. "After I cast the spell, this talisman will float and land on the spy. Once the talisman falls on you, you will feel like thousands of needles pricked in all directions throughout your entire body."
All the guests exhaled and denied that they were not spies.
Guo Baiyu, "Now, I will recount again. One..." He handed the talisman to Zhao Renshu.
Zhao Renshu finally understood what Gou Baiyu was doing, so he raised the talisman, "Two..." The yellow paper talisman began to lit up.
A-Tin stepped forward and said, "Please...please don't distribute the talisman. I'm... I'm the spy."
The innkeeper was shocked, "A-Tin, how could you?"
A-Tin was the waiter who brought Ping to her room. Zhao Renshu grabbed A-Tin's front collar and pulled him closer. A-Tin was pulled so closed to Zhao Renshu that Zhao Renshu could tasted A-Tin's fear.
Zhao Renshu, "Where are they?"
A-Tin trembled in shocked, "I don't know.... I truly don't know...The bandits kidnapped my sister and my sister in law. They told me if I don't do as I was told to do, they will sold my sister and sister in law to a brothel. They also threatened that if I didn't do this, they would kill my boss."
Innkeeper, "What?"
A-Tin cried and said, "Boss Lin, you always is kind to me. I thought of you as a father."
Guo Baiyu, "Why take Ping'an?"
A-Tin, "I don't know. It should be your wife." He pointed at the Xiao sisters. "I'm not sure why they took her away. Please, I really don't know where they are. If I know I will tell you, then you can save my sister and sister in law." A-Tin kneeling on the ground begging for forgiveness.
Guo Baiyu looked at the gathered people and he said, "I'm sorry, everyone, please go back to sleep."
Except for A-Tin and Innkeeper Lin, the other guests left the dinning hall and returned to their room.
Guo Baiyu looked at A-Tine and said, "To correct your mistakes, we need you to help us."
Zhao Renshu said angrily, "If anything happen to Ping'an. I will destroy you."
Innkeeper Lin said, "Please, A-Tin is not a bad person."
A-Tin took a deep breath, "I am willing to help you to catch those bandits, but please assure me that you will bring my sister and sister back."
Zhao Renshu grinned madly at A-Tin and said, "I will consider it."
Guo Baiyu replied, "We were originally here to liberate your town from those bandits."
A-Tin looked at Guo Baiyu, "I believe that you will keep your promise."
Zhao Renshu, "Stop talking."
Guo Baiyu, "The message you should send is that because our maid is missing, we are looking for her, so we may not stay overnight."
A-Tin was not sure about the situation, and he asked, "But if they know, they will kill my boss and sold my sister and sister in law to a brothel."
Zhao Renshu bent down angrily and grabbed A-Tin's robe, "Either you do it now, or my sword cut off your head. Choose one."
A-Tin said, "Alright." He took out a small piece of paper from his robe. He wrote down the words Guo Baiyu instructed him. Then he put the written paper on the table and it disappeared gradually.
Guo Longtong asked, "What are we going to do next?"
Guo Baiyu replied, "The plan is still the same."
Xiao Hui smiled sexily and said, "I think we must be kidnapped to know the location of the bandits."
Xiao Dan said, "Once we get inside, then those who can fight could follow us."
Guo Longtong worried, "However, if the two Miss Xiao are decoyed, they will be in danger."
Xiao Dan giggled sexily and said, "Don't worry about us, handsome guy. You should worry about yourself." She flirted with him with her eyes, and bit the tip of her right index finger.
Guo Longtong's face blushed.
Xiao Hui took out a small sparkling marble, "Take it. No matter where we are, it will bring you to us."
Xiao Dan said, "We will not take action until we know that you are both nearby."
Xiao Hui, "We will try to buy as much time as possible."
Zhao Renshu smiled at the two Xiao sisters, "Sisters, thank you."
Xiao Hui frowned, "Sister? I don't want to be your sister." She giggled. "If you are my lover, you will make me happier."
Xiao Dan smiled and said, "She is correct, we have enough brothers. We don't need anymore more. What we lack is a lover." She too giggled sexily at Zhao Renshu.
Zhao Renshu said, "I still going to thank you two anyway."
Guo Baiyu, "Don't put yourself in danger unnecessarily. You two must wait for us."
Xiao Dan held Guo Baiyu's right arm, "Since you worried about us so much, how about a good luck kiss?"
Xiao Hui smiled and said, "Xiao Dan is right. We deserve that good luck kiss."
Xiao Dan reached over and tried to kiss Guo Baiyu, but Zhao Renshu pushed her face away, and the action caused Xiao Dan to stepped back.
Zhao Renshu, "That enough joke, elder sister. We must hurry."
Guo Baiyu, "Okay, then we are going to set off."
Guo Longtong, "Baiyu, be careful."
Guo Baiyu, "The same goes to you. The three of you listen to Yingyu and Child Fang."
Guo Longtong, "We will."
The group of friends watched Gou Baiyu and Zhao Renshu despaired out of the front entrance of the inn.
