Chapter 50: The Murderer Appears
The grass by the dead lake quietly poked its head out, and looked at He Xiu together under the blowing of the breeze.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, looked at the grass nodding at him, clenched his fists tightly, and regarded the stars reflected in the lake as the 30,000 denier of moldy grain.
These 30,000 denier grains can be described as one of the cow's hairs for the Guan family, the largest household in Qiman Town, but for the people who struggled in the disaster year, it is a grain of fresh life.
It seems that he guessed correctly, the Chang family is still worried about the ancestral hall, and took the opportunity to get rid of this sullen breath in the back, Guan Kaihui has been away from home for three days, and in the hands of He Xiu, he lost 30,000 denier of grain with an average of 10,000 deniers a day.
I wanted to take advantage of Guan Kaihui's test of himself to gain a deeper favor from him, but I never thought that Chang An would kill him halfway, Guo Zhenxing just stopped a few days, and another rich boy brother with a huge disparity in strength stood on the opposite side of himself.
And what's even more bitter is that Xiao Daoren's hatred for himself is getting deeper and deeper, Hong Ji is even more ruthless, and she actually cultivated Xuangong to the Xuanshi level, that day she used the excuse of seducing herself, it was obvious that she was coming towards the bell, and the reason why she didn't dare to reach out and snatch it was because she thought that her Xuangong had also reached the Xuanshi level, and the bell made her even more jealous.
He Xiu's heart was back and forth with these people, as well as a series of things that had happened to them before, and he reflected in his heart, if he hadn't come to Qiman Town, would he still meet them?
The answer to this question will be left to find later, He Xiu took a deep breath, then spit out heavily, and chased his shadow back to the bedroom in the moonlight.
When the rooster crowed, He Xiu put on his clothes and pushed open Qiao Shenming's door: "Brother Qiao, I thought of a way in my heart that was not a solution. ”
Qiao Shenming didn't get dressed and immediately turned over and stood up: "What is the way? The 30,000 denier of rancid grain must be destroyed quickly, otherwise the remaining grain will definitely be infected with mildew." ”
He Xiu walked in the room, looked down at his feet and said: "Brother Qiao, don't worry, it's spring now, and it's about to enter the grain planting period, and the land in Qiman Town has not grown crops for sixteen years, I'm thinking that the 70,000 denier of grain used for seed sales will definitely be sold out in an instant." ”
"Haha, good idea, but what about the 30,000 denier of moldy grain?"
"Give all the spoiled grain to the people who came to buy seeds!" He Xiu suddenly looked at Qiao Shenming and said.
"What?" Qiao Shenming asked in disbelief, "What about the price of that kind of child?"
He Xiu's eyes shot tenacity, raised his clenched fist in front of his eyes, and said crisply: "Sell it at the usual price!"
"That'...... Wouldn't we have to lose more than three times the cost?" Qiao Shenming sat on the bed: "Brother He, you must not have finished speaking." ”
He Xiu lowered his head, his eyebrows were lowered, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a moth of pride: "Haha, Brother Qiao, what do you need to do before this kind of food?"
"Oh...... I see, Brother He is trying to say......"
He Xiu followed the words and said vigorously: "Haha, yes, we can earn back the lost silver taels from farm tools, and the farming tools in the people's homes, after sixteen years of shelf, will definitely not be used anymore," and then continued: "Since the accident in the Changjia ancestral hall last time, our timber business has been in a slump, and now God helps me, although it is said that it is a big fortune and a small use, it can completely restore the reputation of the Guan family." ”
"I understand, we mainly focus on agricultural tools, piggyback and sell seeds, and then send the moldy grain out as a favor, and the people will definitely thank the Guan family religiously. Brother He, you killed four birds with one stone in the blink of an eye, I, Qiao Shenming, really sincerely admire, admire wow, hahahaha!"
Every time Qiao Shenming said a word, he stretched out a finger, his eyes were full of admiration, which made He Xiule feel in his heart, and laughed: "Yes, Brother Qiao, let's do it quietly, we must not let others know, there will be more competitors in the province when the time comes, and also, we must let the villain go." ”
When Qiao Shenming heard the last sentence, his face was full of shame, and he felt extremely ashamed of Ah Lai's betrayal, but he had never heard a word of complaint from He Xiu, and he was grateful in his heart: "Okay, you can leave this matter to me with confidence, I will use my life guarantee to put a thousand farming tools in front of you within thirty days." ”
Qiao Shenming didn't care about the wounds on his body, and quickly left the preparatory work, He Xiu sorted out his mind well, turned around and came to Guan Zhihe's door: "He'er, can I go in?"
There was no echo in the room, He Xiu shouted three times in a row, but there was still no echo, so he slammed the door open with his body and ran into the bedroom in a panic.
There was no figure of Guan Zhihe in the bedroom, He Xiu broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and hurriedly bounced away to the backyard, plunged into the dead lake, and came to the house with all his strength along the undercurrent.
A girl's sobbing sound came from inside the door, He Xiu's legs and feet became weak in an instant, his eyes began to blacken, and he used all his strength to finish the remaining dozen or so steps.
"He'er, He'er......"
He Xiu saw Guan Zhihe squatting on the ground alone, sobbing one after another: "Brother He Xiu, Wan'er...... Wan'er, she ......"
He Xiu hurriedly twisted towards the place where Guan Zhihe's eyes were looking, a naked girl was lying on the bed, her pupils dilated, her head drooping on the edge of the bed, her expression was very terrifying.
"He'er, He'er, tell me what's going on, who did it, who did it?"
Guan Zhihe shook her head and sobbed and replied: "He'er doesn't know, He'er and Wan'er had a good conversation in the room last night, and then smelled a misty fragrance, and then, when she woke up again, He'er found all this, Brother He Xiu, Wan'er died so miserably, you have to avenge her." ”
He Xiu regretted it in his heart, he had obviously guessed the murderer's intentions, but he didn't pay attention to it: "He'er, then you...... Are you alright?"
Guan Zhihe hid in his arms and whispered: "He'er is fine, Wan'er has been with me since she was a child, and I have always treated her as a sister......"
He Xiu held her in his arms in distress, and couldn't help comforting: "I know, I know, Brother He Xiu promised you that he would strangle the murderer to death with his own hands!"
Guan Zhihe will accompany her maid for thirteen years, close her eyes with her own hands, take off her coat to cover her body, and He Xiu will carry her back from the road.
When he returned to the Guan Mansion, He Xiu ordered his family to prepare a burial place for Wan'er in the Hiding Mountain, and Guan Zhihe personally buried her, and then the two bowed deeply to the grave together.
"He'er, the reason why he didn't hurt you is because the murderer is demonstrating to me, he must have known from the beginning about the four gates, I did it, you are in a dangerous situation now, you must find a hiding place. ”
He Xiu took her into his arms with one hand, and as he walked, Guan Zhihe objected indignantly, saying, "No, I must stab that murderer to death in front of me with my own hands." ”
Guan Zhihe held the long sword in his hand in front of his eyes, tears in his eyes, and swore fiercely that He Xiu knew that she would not listen to anything at this juncture, so she could only hold her shoulders to cheer her up.
After returning to the bedroom, he wrapped himself in the quilt and lay down for five full days, during which he only ate a little food and did not say a word to He Xiu.
In the living room outside the bedroom, He Xiu tensed his nerves and didn't dare to leave, at this moment, only he understood Guan Zhihe's grief best, and he hated the murderer to the extreme.
He Xiu lit three more candles at night, and without Qiao Shenming worrying about himself, he had to think alone.
After Guan Kaihui left, Sha Jiannan never took care of Guan Zhihe in the past few days, and even ran to his usual house early in the morning after that Hong Ji came back, and he didn't come back until late every night, and he couldn't smell any alcohol.
Qiao Shenming's eyeliner only told him this, and He Xiu knew that Sha Jiannan's every move was under the surveillance of the Guan family, and on the other hand, he was not secretly watched?
Things in the world are complicated and disorganized, the grievances and grievances in the world are impermanent and changeable, and people only have a simple heart of flesh, but they can control everything in the world.
"Bang ......"
There was a crisp sound, and then a round hole with a large button appeared in the paper barrier of the window, He Xiu reacted quickly, bounced into the bedroom, his body blocked in front of the bed, and immediately blew out the candles in the room.
"Brother He Xiu's ......"
"Shhhh
Guan Zhihe jumped up, put the short sword across his chest, and stood with He Xiu: "Brother He Xiu, or we will kill him and capture him in one fell swoop." ”
"No, he's in the dark, we're in the light, there's a candle outside the bedroom, and we're going to expose ourselves as soon as we show up. ”
After He Xiu finished speaking, he lowered his brows and closed his eyes to listen to the movement outside the door.
"Whew......"
"Bang ......"
A candle went out outside the bedroom.
"Whew......"
"Bang ......"
Connected to the second root extinguished.
He Xiu closed his breath and condensed, his two ears jumped three times, and the true qi in his abdomen appeared in the middle of the two palms, and he flew into the bedroom and living room, and when his body was in mid-air, his feet borrowed strength, turned over and pushed the true qi in the palms of the two palms to the direction where the third arrow flew, and the red true qi turned into two like drizzles like beans at the moment it was pushed out, pulling out two long red lines, and flying out through the door frame.
"Whew......"
"Whew......"
"Whew......"
"Boom ......"
"Ah......h
One of the True Qi collided with the sound coming from outside, making an explosion, and the other True Qi obviously hit the murderer.
At the same time as the murderer shouted, He Xiu kicked the pillar and flew back to Guan Zhihe's side: "Brother He Xiu, your Xuangong is back?"
"He'er, this matter is a long story, I'll explain it to you again when I have time, now that the murderer has been injured by me, I'll count to three, and we'll go out of the window together and capture him in one fell swoop. ”
Guan Zhihe agreed softly, and after He Xiu methodically reported the three numbers, he was the first to swing his sword and kill from the window.
