Chapter 649 Put down

"boom!"

The door inside was closed.

The magician has gone away.

At this time, the store owner looked at Chen Ming with fear on his face and a trembling voice, "Who are you...what are you going to do?! My family, how are my family members?!"

Before Chen Ming could speak, he saw Su Su stumbling out of the tea shop. After losing her invisibility, her legs weakened and she fell into Chen Ming's arms.

Chen Ming was startled by Su Su's move and quickly hugged her.

But he saw the little girl in his arms breathing heavily. She was obviously frightened by the game just now. Her temples were soaked with sweat and stuck to her forehead, looking miserable.

"I'm sorry, uncle, I, I didn't mean to threaten you..."

"Your family is fine, they are safe, I have no idea where they are..."

"I just saw a completely different set of tableware on your stove. I guessed that it belonged to your family, so I said that..."

"sorry……"

"We are not here for you, we are here out of necessity, really..."

Plop!

After hearing this, the store owner, whose back was already soaked with sweat, suddenly fell to the ground and let out a long sigh of relief.

Chen Ming felt heartbroken when he heard this.

Su Su, a kind-hearted child, knew that the store owner was innocent, so she felt deeply guilty after having no choice but to threaten him.

After all, he is still a child...

And he is still the kind of person who has stayed at home for more than ten years and has no social experience at all.

Doing these things is really embarrassing for her.

Chen Ming took the little girl into his arms and gently touched her head to comfort her, trying to calm her down.

After half a cup of tea, Su Su calmed down a lot, and the shopkeeper finally came to his senses. The joy of surviving the disaster disappeared from his face, and was replaced by uncontrollable sullenness.

"No matter what you want to do...get out of here!"

"You are not welcome here!"

Knowing that his family's threats were false, he was naturally extremely angry.

But the words just fell.

A cold dagger was pressed against his neck. Chen Ming smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry. I can't bear to obey."

"You don't need to do anything. Just wait outside for a while. I'll come in and come out."

"Just pretend you've never seen us."

"Please don't doubt my abilities."

"I think it should be easy to find your family..."

The shopkeeper, who had just become angry, suddenly shuddered.

He suddenly realized that the man in front of him was not as kind as the little girl.

Feeling the coldness on his neck, the hot blood that surged up to his brain gradually receded.

"Okay, okay..."

He tremblingly agreed.

Chen Ming smiled with satisfaction, "Very good."

As he spoke, he turned the dagger over and let a gold coin that had been placed on the other side of the dagger slide down and fall on the shopkeeper's chest, where it rolled down.

"This is your reward for being obedient."

Seeing this gold coin, the last trace of anger and unwillingness in the shopkeeper's mind turned into helplessness and compromise at this moment.

He silently put away the gold coins, stood up, and walked away from Chen Ming, no longer talking to him.

A stick in one hand and a carrot in the other is indeed the best way to make people obey.

"Susu, I'll give you the medicine in a moment. Just stay outside and don't go in."

But Su Su pursed her lips and said, "Sir, let me go...I, I will definitely be able to complete the task!"

As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Chen Ming with longing and pleading.

"I won't make that mistake again, really."

she said timidly.

It seemed that she felt that her behavior of being unable to withstand the pressure and apologizing just now was another mistake.

Such a pitiful look made Chen Ming feel distressed again.

Damn, my heart is melting!

He quickly said seriously: "No, you didn't make a mistake, you did a good job... This mission is inherently different from the previous ones. It's normal for you to feel guilty."

"Go ahead, mix the medicine in, and come back quickly."

Seeing that Chen Ming still handed over the task to herself, Su Su finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the pain and entanglement in her heart, what she fears most is that her husband will be dissatisfied.

"good!"

The little girl nodded sharply, turned on the invisibility effect of the holy beast badge, gripped the token tightly, and dived in again.

This time, there are no obstacles.

It only took a minute for Susu to get everything done quickly.

All food was mixed with Weakness Powder and Sleeping Powder.

Not a single thing was missed.

After doing all this, Chen Ming called the storekeeper so that he could go down and put the meal. Of course, Chen Ming did not forget to give him a bag of toad pods and asked him to pretend to add some of the toad pods to the meal.

When it comes to acting, you have to do the whole thing.

Only ten minutes later, the tea shop owner opened the door. He returned to the shop in front of the door with a complicated expression and shook a cattail leaf fan.

This was the secret code he had agreed with Chen Ming.

Making this action means that the medicine has taken effect.

"Hey, so fast?"

Su Su, who was squatting not far away with Chen Ming, was a little surprised.

Chen Ming was not surprised, "At this time, it's about the same... You can see that the food he prepared is not too much, only for about ten people. I used double potion, or double dose, to defeat them." , not difficult.”

"You wait outside, I'll go in and take a look."

This time Susu didn't shout to go in again.

She knew very well that she was just a priest, and it was best to leave the next task to Chen Ming. She was not the kind of girl with big breasts and no brains. She just regretted that she could not accompany Chen Ming.

"Be careful, sir!"

Walking to the door of the tea shop, Chen Ming quietly took the token from the boss's hand and pushed the door open.

The aroma of freshly cooked food still lingers in the shop.

Chen Ming continued to go straight, and after opening the door again, there was a small courtyard. There were many tables and chairs here. It was obviously used to entertain guests.

Following the route given by his boss, he turned right and entered a warehouse. In the deepest part of the warehouse, a floor was lifted.

A staircase suddenly appeared.

That's the way to the cellar.

Chen Ming crouched and got in.

The cellar is not deep, and the road is not long, but after walking into the cellar, I saw that a downward slope had been dug in the center of the cellar.

This slope was obviously blasted open by brute force. It looked like it had not been repaired at all, and it just lay so brutally underground.

"According to the store owner, this place was forcibly opened by magicians... Heh, he claims to be noble, but isn't his method still so barbaric?"

All the way down.

This time we walked longer, and it seemed that the cave was deeper.

Soon, the slope ahead became gentler and gentler.

About to arrive.

Sure enough, Chen Ming didn't go far when he found that his eyes suddenly opened up.

Huge underground cave.

There was a table lying across it that I didn't know where it came from.

The magicians in black robes collapsed on the table in front of the still-heated food.

Chen Ming turned on his eagle vision and scanned.

Elite magician...
