Chapter 24: Clues (2)

Du Lianxue stuffed a dried orange into her mouth again, puffing out her cheeks: "I won't sue you." ”

Lan Zhi stared at her. Even if Du Lianxue didn't say it, Lan Zhi could guess it. In this world, the only person who knew that she was going to kill Xiang Jinxiu was Xiao Jianchu. As the Central Plains Dakou who Yuyuan Shengyi wanted to exterminate, Xiao Jianchu must have some power in Haotian City. Thinking that when she took Du Lianxue into the city that day, Xiao Jianchu's eyeliner found their whereabouts. After she separated from Du Lianxue, Xiao Jianchu's people managed to contact Du Lianxue again, and learned the beginning and end of their acquaintance from Du Lianxue's mouth. They told Du Lianxue that she wanted to kill Xiang Jinxiu, and they also had the intention of having the opportunity to let Du Lianxue help.

It's just that if Du Lianxue can't be trusted by Xiao Jianchu, Xiao Jianchu will definitely not tell her the purpose of coming to Haotian City. And it is not easy to gain Xiao Jianchu's trust, at least ...... Du Lianxue wants to show allegiance.

Lan Zhi knew that Du Lianxue would follow Xiao Jianchu, and the ten* wanted to use Xiao Jianchu's power to avenge her family. It doesn't matter who takes advantage of whom, only mutual benefit. But for no reason, she still felt that Xiao Jianchu shouldn't be like this: Du Lianxue was only fifteen years old, she was just a child in the end, fate was too cruel to her, and no one should let her carry it more.

However, this was Du Lianxue's own choice, and Lan Zhi couldn't blame Xiao Jianchu at all. Lan Zhi suddenly felt a little bored in her heart: is this also the case between her and Xiao Jianchu? He persuaded her to come to Haotian City, was he secretly expecting that her revenge would help him? Is that man affectionate and righteous to her, or is he well versed in the true meaning of employing people?

As the top brand of Qinglou, Du Lianxue must be able to get a lot of news, and even more, she can do more. Lan Zhi asked slowly, "What did Xiao Jianchu ask you to do?" ”

Du Lianxue's mouth kept talking: "Xiao Jianchu? Who is he? ”

Lan Zhi didn't ask any more. There are only two possibilities for Du Lianxue to say this: one is that the people who came into contact with her did not tell her about Xiao Jianchu's existence, and the other is that she did not want to admit that she was Xiao Jianchu's subordinate. Lan Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you think what you do for him is insignificant, but in the eyes of Yuyuan people, you are meticulous." I'm in Huweiwei, and I know how cruel Yuyuan people are to Xizuo, and I don't want to see you die a tragic death. She hesitated for a moment, but then said, "Since your enemy is dead, let me withdraw now." Xiao Jianchu's ...... I'll go talk to him. ”

Du Lianxue clapped her palms to herself: "Ah! I know! Xiao Jianchu is the Xiao Gongzi in your story, right? She shook her head and sighed: "Sister, sister, he won't marry you, how much weight do you think you have in his heart?" Even if I am truly his subordinate, what right do you have to talk to him? ”

Lan Zhi choked. She wanted to say that Xiao Jianchu had his difficulties, his brothers refused to accept him marrying Yuyuanren, and he always had to take care of everyone's feelings. Besides, the two just have a good impression of each other, but no one has said anything, where is it to the point of talking about marriage. But he felt that it was meaningless to talk to Du Lianxue about this, so he only said: "I am the captain of Huweiwei, and I can do more for him than you." Whatever he wants you to do, I'll do it for you. He has achieved his goal, so naturally he will not bother with you. ”

Du Lianxue snorted a few times: "Okay, don't worry about me anymore, now I said that I want to help you avenge." ”

Lan Zhi refused: "No need, I have already found a way to kill Xiang Jinxiu." ”

Du Lianxue didn't believe it at all: "He is the Tiger Guard, and his kung fu is far better than yours, how are you going to kill him?" ”

Lan Zhi asked rhetorically: "You don't have martial arts at all, how can you help me?" ”

Du Lianxue didn't fall down by her, but smiled softly: "Just because he is sexual. Chaos, I can accompany him to bed. Can you? ”

Lan Zhi frowned slightly. She wants to say that you have been respecting the etiquette and etiquette of the girl's family since you were a child, but you have no choice but to enter the Qinglou temporarily, and you should always want to get out of the house, as if you are always talking about "men" and "going to bed" like this, which is really not good. But he is not accustomed to teaching others, and he finally gives up. She explained, "I really have a way. Someone has developed a Gu worm, which is planted in a woman's body and can kill the first man she has sex with. I'm going to use this Gu worm to deal with Xiang Jinxiu. ”

Du Lianxue was very surprised: "There is such a thing!" Then you can send me a few. At that time, I want to kill whom, it will not be easy! ”

Lan Zhi was speechless: "That person is reluctant to hand over the Gu worm to Hu Weiwei, I think it's rare, I haven't even gotten it yet, but you asked me to send you a few?" ”

Du Lianxue pouted: "If you don't give it, you won't give it, be stingy!" She threw the empty preserved fruit bun to the ground: "I use this Gu worm quite appropriately, find a time to plant it for me, and I'll go and sleep with Xiang Jinxiu." ”

Lan Zhi's words of education were forced to her lips again, but after a few turns, she still swallowed back. The figure of the girl in front of her overlapped with her brother who loved to mess around, and Lan Zhi only felt helpless: "Although Xiang Jinxiu is lewd. Chaos, but cautious, if you want to find a woman, you will directly take people to the house, never touch the people in the Qinglou, how do you change his habits? ”

She paused, and then said, "Besides, although Gu worms can kill people, how long does it take to kill a person?" What was the state of death of the person who was killed? If Xiang Jinxiu didn't swallow his breath immediately and killed you with his last breath, would you be willing? It's that you are lucky not to die, in case you have always been cultivating to die in a weird way, and you are found out by being a smooth vine, how do you get out? ”

Du Lianxue stopped talking. Lan Zhi said in one sentence: "There are many issues to consider. Xiang Jinxiu has more than 100 concubines, I can approach them lightly and plant Gu for them, and I don't need you to take risks. ”

Early in the morning of the second day, Lan Zhi got up early and left Xinfeng Courtyard. She still has to go to Yuan Qiaoqiao today, try to get the Gu worm from her, and find out the utility habits of the Gu worm. If possible, before successfully assassinating Xiang Jinxiu, she had to hide this matter from Duan Ling, lest that person know the reason and intervene in it, wasting her painstaking efforts to protect him.

She was thinking wholeheartedly, so she didn't pay attention to Du Lianxue, and she didn't know that after she left, Du Lianxue, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes.

Du Lianxue simply freshened up and came to the side room. With a stroke of her palm somewhere on the wall, the closet slowly slid open, revealing a secret door. She passed through the secret door and came to another room in Xinfengyuan. There was a maid who was cleaning, and when she saw her coming, she saluted, "Miss Du." ”

Du Lianxue returned the salute, looked at the bedroom door again, and asked in a low voice, "Is the son awake?" ”

The maid sighed softly: "There were several groups of people who came overnight, and the son didn't sleep all night, and now he is still in the study." You just go there. ”

Du Lianxue nodded and pushed the door in. The lights in the study had been turned off, and there were teacups on a few small tables, some of which were still steaming, and it was obvious that the guests had just left. A man sat behind a desk in the middle of the room, his elbows propped up on the wooden table, his fingers on his forehead, and his posture was very tired. The morning light shone in through the half-open window and cast on the man's face, and the light and shadow were intertwined, and the Wuwu mask looked a little hideous.

Du Lianxue stood a few steps away from the man and called softly, "Chief." ”

The man's body moved slightly, and he raised his head: "Ah Xue, you are here." He seemed to laugh, his voice softer: "You don't need to call me chief. As I said, you're not like them, and you can leave at any time. Call me Yuan Bai is. ”

While talking, the maid came in with a kettle, wanting to give Du Lianxue tea. Yuan Bai pinched his temples with his fingertips and asked Du Lianxue, "Are you thirsty?" ”

Du Lianxue was stunned for a moment and shook her head: "I'm not thirsty, I just drank tea when I came." ”

Yuan Bai waved his hand at the maid: "Don't serve tea." After drinking tea all night, my mouth was bitter. He thought about it, and then said to Du Lianxue: "I'm hungry, shall we eat xiaolongbao?" ”

Du Lianxue looked at the man's eyes under the mask and blushed slightly: "Okay." ”

The maid retreated and went out to buy xiaolongbao. Yuan Bai got up at this time: "Let's go, let's go to the hall to talk." ”

Du Lianxue followed behind the man and heard him ask, "She's gone?" ”

Du Lianxue responded: "Let's go, I'll leave as soon as the time passes." As soon as she left, I came. ”

The man nodded: "You said you were going to help her kill Xiang Jinxiu, what was her reaction?" ”

Du Lianxue said while recalling: "I was surprised, but I didn't deny it, and asked me where I got the news." She secretly glanced at Yuan Bai: "She thought it was a person named Xiao Jianchu who sued me." ”

She guessed the relationship between Yuan Bai and Xiao Jianchu in her heart, but Yuan Bai obviously didn't want to talk about it, he just turned his head and smiled at Du Lianxue, and his narrow eyes under the mask were slightly curved: "And then?" ”

Du Lianxue was a little disappointed, but still said: "She also said that she didn't want me to help, she already had a way herself." She said that she planned to send a Gu insect seed to Xiang Jinxiu's concubine, and rely on the Gu insect to kill Xiang Jinxiu. ”

Yuan Bai was silent for a while. The two walked to the hall and sat down, and Yuan Bai spoke again: "Ah Xue, do you think Lan Zhi is unreliable?" ”

Du Lianxue asked tentatively: "The leader is afraid that she will betray us?" She thought for a moment, "She rescued me that day, and I was partial to her in my heart, and if you asked me, I would believe her." Didn't the leader say that her family had been killed by the Yuyuan people, but why didn't he believe her? ”

Yuan Bai groaned: "A few months ago, Uncle Liu's transmission of news went wrong, attracting Hu Weiwei to arrest him, and the person who captured him at that time was Lan Zhi. But Uncle Liu left a secret message before he was imprisoned, saying that the news was in Lan Zhi's hands. He paused for a moment: "Later, Lan Zhi went to Wuxiang Temple and threw the sachet left by Uncle Liu on the tree. Unexpectedly, that night, Duan Ling's people set up an ambush in Wuxiang Temple again and killed Xiao Luo, who took the news. ”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said slowly: "Xiao Luo died on the spot, because I don't know what happened at that time. I don't know if Xiao Luo's death is related to Lan Zhi, and I'm not sure if Lan Zhi told Duan Ling the secret. ”

Du Lianxue frowned and thought about it, but she didn't dare to assert that Lan Zhi was innocent. But she thought of Lan Zhi's concern for her and the sentence "I'll do it for you", and inexplicably didn't want Lan Zhi to be involved in their affairs, so she said: "If the leader doesn't believe her, don't see her." ”

Yuan Bai glanced at her, that look seemed to see through her, Du Lianxue couldn't help but lower her head. But he heard Yuan Bai sigh: "If you can...... I don't want to see her. ”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the maid pushed the door to send Xiaolongbao in. Du Lianxue held the saucer and took the chopsticks to hold the xiaolongbao, but saw Yuan Bai lift the mask to the bridge of his nose, directly pinch a bun with his hand, and put it in his mouth. Although his movements were casual, he was elegant in appearance, and the face under the mask was half scarred and half as smooth as jade.

He didn't speak when he was eating, and Du Lianxue was the same, the two of them silently finished eating xiaolongbao, and Yuan Bai put the mask back and muttered: "But it's really not easy for Huweiwei to enter a person...... Not to mention, she also has a close relationship with Duan Ling. ”

He walked to the corner of the house, slowly washing his hands in the basin. After he took a sweat towel to dry his hands, he finally made up his mind. The man sighed again: "Ah Xue...... The next time she comes to you, bring her to me. ”
