Chapter 709: Hu Bingcheng's Threat
"You just stand here and don't move, I'll go over there and continue looking for an exit. Qi Dongsi was about to turn around and leave after a word, when suddenly Li Zhiqian stopped him.
"Can I go with you? I'm scared here alone?" Li Zhiqian looked at Qi Dongsi pitifully, with begging eyes full of pleading.
Qi Dongsi was afraid that Li Zhiqian would be even more frightened when he came to that passage and saw him under the grave, but he couldn't let Li Zhiqian stay in this place alone, otherwise he didn't know what was going to happen, at least he had to pay more attention.
After thinking for a while, Qi Dongsi agreed: "Yes, but the passage over there has not yet opened, so you can only stand outside the passage and wait for me." ”
"Good. Knowing that she could follow Qi Dongsi, Li Zhiqian agreed without hesitation.
Qi Dongsi took Li Zhiqian to the room at the end, and stopped when he came to the passage on the side, "You just wait for me here, if there is any situation, you can call me directly, I can hear it." ”
Li Zhiqian bit her lip and nodded: "Mmmm." ”
Qi Dongsi returned to the inside of the passage, which had been excavated more than ten meters deep, and there was a crack in itself, so it was not difficult to dig such a long passage.
Qi Dongsi came to the grave before, because of Li Zhiqian's matter, he made a decision in his previous hesitation, and continued to bury this tomb, neither disturbing this heroic soul who had been gone for many years, nor causing Li Zhiqian's panic, as for the passage, turn the direction again.
According to the burial customs on the riverside side, the grave generally faces south, and the vicinity needs to face the river and stream and other water sources, so this explains why water seeps down in this place, and if you guess correctly, it should be an old cemetery after you go out here.
With this in mind, the excavation went much more smoothly, and he soon found another route to the excavation in the south-facing direction of the tomb.
Since there is a water source in the south, the more you dig up, the more you can feel the change in the soil quality, which is getting wetter and thicker, and not as dry and loose as before.
However, this did not bring much difficulty to Qi Dongsi's excavation work, and he excavated along the soil at the junction of dry and wet, because the junction of dry and wet must be the shore of the water source, so there is no need to worry about a large amount of water pouring in.
After digging like this for about ten minutes, Qi Dongsi broke through the last obstacle, stabbed the last layer of soil with a steel pipe, a small hole appeared, and a dazzling light shone into the dark hole, Qi Dongsi put down the tools in his hand and clapped his hands, a huge sense of accomplishment arose, and a smile could not be hidden on his face.
But at this time, Li Zhiqian's voice came from behind him: "Hey, someone is coming!"
When Qi Dongsi heard this, he hurriedly turned around and ran out, and quickly came to Li Zhiqian's side, not only to protect Li Zhiqian, but also to protect the passage that had taken half a day to dig behind him, so that Hu Bingcheng's people could not find out.
The sound of footsteps came from the second floor, Qi Dongsi looked up, it was the corner where Hu Bingcheng's voice came, and after a while, Hu Bingcheng's voice sounded again.
"How is it, are you still satisfied with my woman?" Hu Bingcheng's words carried a strong shameless laugh.
Qi Dongsi was very angry in his heart, but he still showed a smile and said, "I have no interest in your woman. ”
Hu Bingcheng coughed lightly and reminded: "You're not interested in her, but she's interested in you." ”
Qi Dongsi quietly glanced at Li Zhiqian beside him, and took the initiative to ask, "What are you doing here, shouldn't you just be bored to see my jokes?" ”
Hu Bingcheng hurriedly denied with a smile: "No, no, no, of course not, I'm not such a boring person, I just suddenly thought of a question, I want to confirm with you." Does the female owner of the Starlight Bar have a special relationship with you?"
Qi Dongsi was surprised in his heart, how did Hu Bingcheng know about Ji Linyuan's relationship with him, and why did he suddenly talk about this matter at this point in time?
Obviously, Hu Bingcheng didn't suddenly think of this question and came to Qi Dongsi to confirm, Qi Dongsi heard the meaning contained in Hu Bingcheng's tone, this was not a doubt that popped up unintentionally, but a reminder with an obvious purpose.
Since Hu Bingcheng specially came to ask Ji Linyuan, it means that he has done some investigation on this matter, at least he has heard of this relationship, and Qi Dongsi does not deny it, but he explained: "The relationship is not special, it is just an ordinary business partnership, why, Mr. Hu is also interested in the wine industry?"
"Yes, I have some interest in alcohol and some research, and I heard that Starlight Bar is one of the best bars in Ekundera, so I wanted to talk to their owner. Hu Bingcheng's answer seems to be normal and reasonable, but as two companies that have nothing to do with each other, the purpose of connecting at this time is self-evident. If you just want to exchange views and insights on the wine industry, there are too many people in the provincial capital who know more than Ji Linyuan, and there is no need to have anything to do with the starlight bar under the river.
"Hehe, from the little experience I got in the process of cooperating with them, I remind Mr. Hu that they attach great importance to the character of their partners, and I think that with Mr. Hu's character, they may not be able to look at it, so it is better to be cautious, ahahaha. Qi Dongsi deliberately used Ji Linyuan's topic to satirize Hu Bingcheng's character problems, and also reminded Hu Bingcheng that in Ji Linyuan's matter, if he dares to mess around, the consequences will be very serious.
Hu Bingcheng also heard the irony in Qi Dongsi's words, but he didn't care, but laughed with Qi Dongsi, and then said: "In front of interests, I believe she will forget her character." ”
Qi Dongsi smiled confidently and continued to attack Hu Bingcheng's unrealistic ideas: "Then you are very wrong, the reputation of Starlight Bar in Jiangxia is well known, in order not to make black money, you rejected a cooperation project of hundreds of millions of yuan, I think your business temptation must not be able to impress them." ”
Hu Bingcheng threw out his plan in a timely manner: "It seems that you have a high opinion of them, I was still hesitating, what you just said made up my mind for me, I decided to invite their boss to come to the provincial capital in person, and I will talk to her about cooperation alone." ”
When Qi Dongsi heard this, his face immediately sank, and he hurriedly scolded loudly: "Don't mess around!"
He knew what Hu Bingcheng meant by letting Ji Linyuan come to the provincial capital to talk alone, once Ji Linyuan agreed to go, the situation he faced would be very dangerous, it was easy to come to the provincial capital, but it was not so easy to leave the provincial capital, the provincial capital was Hu Bingcheng's territory, how could Ji Linyuan be a girl.
Hu Bingcheng shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't mess around, I said that I invited her to come, a very civilized way, but you seem to be very nervous, ahahaha." ”
Hu Bingcheng deliberately tested Qi Dongsi, and he could already see from Qi Dongsi's reaction that the relationship between the female boss of this Starlight Bar and Qi Dongsi was very special, and it was the same as what he had heard, which confirmed this, which made him more confident in dealing with Qi Dongsi.
Qi Dongsi explained with a valid reason of his own: "I don't want anyone to affect our cooperation with Starlight Bar, including you, I have to protect my own interests. ”
Unexpectedly, Hu Bingcheng followed Qi Dongsi's words and continued to reveal his shameless intentions: "Don't worry, I invited her to come to the provincial capital, and I may not talk about cooperation, so you can rest assured that it will not affect your interests." ”
"That's not !!" Qi Dongsi suddenly roared out of a faux pa, he already felt that Hu Bingcheng had turned his target to Starlight Bar and Ji Linyuan, which Qi Dongsi couldn't agree, he had to stop Hu Bingcheng, he had to protect Ji Linyuan, he couldn't care about the relationship with Ji Linyuan now.
originally wanted to clear the relationship to protect Ji Linyuan, but in the current situation, whether it is related or not, Ji Linyuan will be in danger, because Hu Bingcheng has already determined that the two of them have a relationship, which is the key to his ability to control the current situation.
"Well, take good care of this Mr. Qi and calm his emotions. After speaking, Hu Bingcheng's voice disappeared along with the sound of footsteps, and the entire hall fell silent again.
Li Zhiqian saw that Qi Dongsi's expression was very confused, and she didn't know how to appease her, so she had to step forward and ask, "What's wrong with you, are you okay?"
Qi Dongsi stretched out his hand to stop Li Zhiqian's further moves, shook his head and said, "It's okay, let's get out of here quickly." ”
Qi Dongsi turned around and ran towards the passage he had dug before, and Li Zhiqian paused for a moment and hurriedly followed.
When they came to the entrance of the passage, Qi Dongsi said to Li Zhiqian: "You follow me, I have dug the passage, and I will take you out of here now." ”
"Oh, good. Li Zhiqian nodded her head, reached out and grabbed the corner of Qi Dongsi's clothes, and followed Qi Dongsi into the passage.
Qi Dongsi turned on the laser flashlight, adjusted the light source, and walked in cautiously, looking back at Li Zhiqian from time to time to remind her of some points to pay attention to.
Came to the vicinity of the snake cave cave before, because Qi Dongsi buried it and turned it into a raised mound, "Be careful, this mound can't be touched." ”
Li Zhiqian raised her long legs and stepped over easily.
Walking further inside, under the grave, Qi Dongsi deliberately went around to the side close to the grave and let Li Zhiqian go to the other side.
I thought that I could pass through here smoothly to the end, but suddenly the flashlight in Qi Dongsi's hand fell to the ground, just at the feet of Li Zhiqian, and Li Zhiqian bent down to pick it up.
Suddenly there was a scream, Li Zhiqian jumped up, and took three steps back, Qi Dongsi bent down to pick up the flashlight, followed Li Zhiqian's gaze, and saw that there was a white bone-like object in the mound of soil on the ground, Qi Dongsi thought to himself, it must have accidentally fallen when he opened the coffin before.
