Yu Shu handed over Qu Hai to the two guards Zhou Hu and Song Dali who bought him from the Yuanren Courtyard to take care of, and they did their duty, washing Qu Hai, who was dirty as a beggar, changing into clean clothes, and treating several wounds on his body with good deeds.

So when Yu Shu came again, Xue Hai had lost the tattered appearance he had a few days ago.

Yu Shu stood at the door with his hands behind his back, looked at Qu Hai, who was tied to a chair and pretended to be dead, and asked Zhou Hu: "Is he honest these days?" ”

Before Zhou Hu could answer, Song Dali said angrily: "To be honest, in the morning, Brother Zhou fed him food, he secretly broke the rope at some point, and hit people with his head to take the opportunity to escape. ”

Seeing Yu Shu frowning, Zhou Hu hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Miss, it's a little careless, I almost let this person escape this morning, please punish Miss." ”

"It's not your fault" Yu Shu smiled at Zhou Hu, turned his face to look at the emaciated Qu Hai, and suddenly cooled his voice: "It seems that he has too much strength, and it is enough to feed him one meal at night from today." ”

No matter how pitiful Qu Hai looks now, for Yu Shu, this is a person who once wanted her life, and he is not worthy of her sympathy at all.

"Go to the gate and keep watch, I have something to ask him." Yu Shu raised his hand to signal Zhou and Song.

Zhou Hu tied Qu Hai firmly in the morning, and he didn't worry about him breaking free and hurting people, so he said to Yu Shu: "Then the young lady should be careful about herself, if there is anything wrong, shout loudly." ”

After speaking, he dragged Song Dali to retreat to the gate.

Yu Shu closed the door of the house, picked up a bench and sat down less than half a zhang away from Qu Hai, and as soon as he raised his foot, he kicked him on the calf, and the force was not heavy.

Qu Hai closed his eyes, pursed his mouth, and didn't move, as if Yu Shu was kicking the bench leg, not his leg.

Yu Shu pouted. Raised his leg and kicked it again, but this time he didn't spare any strength, and kicked Qu Hai's injured leg hard, and even shook his chair. Even if he was a seven-foot-tall man, he couldn't help but let out a muffled voice on the spot.

"Shhhh

Qu Hai opened his eyes suddenly, and glared at Yu Shu angrily, "What are you doing!" ”

Thinking that he Qu Hai has lived on the tip of a knife for half his life, licking blood to live, and in the end it will fall into the hands of a girl who has no teeth, which is really hateful!

Yu Shu crossed his arms. Sitting cross-legged, facing his angry gaze, he said tepidly: "I have something to ask you, as long as you are willing to answer honestly, I will let you go as you wish, and go wherever you fall in love." ”

Qu Hai, a felon, how did he escape from prison unnoticed. Someone must be secretly helping, so who let him go, and what is the reason for letting him out? Is there anything to do with her?

Qu Hai sneered: "Lao Tzu is old enough to be your father." Who do you want to trick? I'm telling you, either you let me go or kill me, or you won't be happy when I get out. ”

This is a stone that meets an iron lump, and no one is afraid of anyone.

Yu Shu said disdainfully: "With your current crippled virtue, a fugitive, even if I let you go, you can't make any waves." ”

Qu Hai's face turned pale. Yu Shu just poked at his sore spot, since the nine deaths, his head often has a dull pain, and he can't use internal force, only a little self-protection power remains, if there is no cure. This life looks like it's useless.

Thinking of this, his face suddenly darkened, and a trace of sorrow floated up, which was keenly noticed by Yu Shu.

Slowly rubbing his fingertips, Yu Shu thought for a moment, his voice softened, and his eyes looked directly at Qu Hai, "You tell me the truth, even if I don't let you go, I will help you take care of your family." ”

On the way here, Yu Shu thought about it carefully, this Qu Hai is a fugitive, and he finally got out of the prison, not to mention how far he runs, what he is doing in the capital, thinking about it, he must be nostalgic, and what people are nostalgic about in this world is nothing more than people and things.

So Yu Shu just cheated casually, and didn't know if Qu Hai still had relatives alive, who would have thought that Qu Hai listened to her words, and a layer of wax skin appeared on his face, and his eyes were red in an instant, he raised his head, and laughed loudly.

"Hahaha!"

Yu Shu stared at the tears rolling down the corners of his eyes, his heart moved, and he had some major hidden secrets in his intuition, and he was about to take the opportunity to break through, but who knew that Qu Hai opened it first. "Ha Luha, my wife and children have all been killed by me, where is the family that came, and now I am left with a lonely ghost, you have to take care of them, do you want to go to the underworld to accompany them instead of me!" ”

Yu Shu's face was a little solemn, not because of Qu Hai's swearing, but because of the information revealed in his words-

His wife and children are dead, are they killed by him?

What kind of absurd thing is this, looking at him, he is obviously sad and self-blaming for the death of his relatives, and he is in pain, how can he be the one who kills his wife and son?

"You-"

"No more nonsense" Qu Hai interrupted Yu Shu's words in a cold voice, and warned her in a thick voice: "I have no grievances with you, I can tell you that my business has nothing to do with you, if you know each other, don't mess with it too much, so as not to get into trouble." ”

Yu Shu pursed her lips, unable to tell whether Qu Hai's words were true or false, and wanted to continue the interrogation, but no matter how she tried to do it next, she couldn't let Qu Hai open her mouth again.

Yu stroked, Yu Shu couldn't help but think of Xue Rui's benefits, if he helped investigate, why worry about not being able to pry Qu Hai's mouth open, and he wouldn't be so clueless.

Helpless, Yu Shu watched the sky getting darker, so he had to come here today, go back and think about it, and come back tomorrow.

***

Yu Shu returned to the west of the city, bowed her head and thought all the way, and when she walked to the door of the house, she noticed the carriage parked in front of her house, and was stunned, with surprise flashing in her eyes.

Carrying the corner of his robe, he walked quickly into the courtyard and went straight to the antechamber with lanterns lit with candles.

"Brother Xue!"

This sound startled Xue Rui, who was tasting the medicinal tea brewed in He Lang, and when he turned his head, he saw Yu Shu blowing in like a gust of wind, staring at him with a pair of eyes blazing.

"I finally saw you, I've been looking for you for a few days, what have you been busy with lately?"

This made Xue Rui a little flattered, he and Yu Shu had known each other for so long, he had always been staring at her whereabouts, how could she have taken the initiative to care about his affairs.

Could it be that the girl suddenly opened her mind?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he was omitted by Xue Rui himself, and he thought stupidly: Something must have happened to him in such a hurry.

Xue Rui's heart made two turns, but his face was calm, and he changed the teacup to hold it in one hand. Lightly put it on the coffee table, and then hooked a very amiable smile at Yu Shu, who had not seen him for a few days: "It's all an errand sent down by the top, it's not worth mentioning." But you, did you come to the house to look for me today? ”

"yes." Yu Shu was not fascinated by Xue Rui's smiling face, turned his head and saw that He Fangzhi was still there, and it was inconvenient to say something, so he said: "Godfather, I have something to discuss with Brother Xue, go out for a walk, and come back in a while." ”

He Fangzhi will be a female gentleman because of Yu Shu in the future. is not like the usual boudoir girl, as an elder, she doesn't stick to her actions, nods and lets them go.

The two of them went out, Yu Shu was in front, Xue Rui was two steps behind, and went out more than ten steps to the east, walking under the shadow of the lanterns hanging on the wall of other people's courtyards. Yu Shu paused slightly, turned his head to Xue Rui and said, "Brother Xue, do you still remember Bi Qing Qiu Biao's gang of thieves?" ”

Xue Rui said: "Remember, what's wrong." Didn't that gang all have been beheaded? And what do you do again? Could it be that there are still fish that have slipped through the net? ”

Speaking of this, his expression couldn't help but become serious.

In the past, Yu Shu's sister and brother went to Beijing and accompanied the caravan, but they got on the thief ship by mistake, and the leading businessman and the escort of the dart hand were two people who were secret prostitutes, and for the sake of the ship's property, they cooperated with a group of water bandits, and killed a boatload of merchants, only Yu Shu and a few people died and escaped.

Later, Yu Shu was foiled by Xue Rui. Wipe out that gang of thieves, behead those who cut off their heads, and hold them captive.

Yu Shu glanced at him, shook his head and said, "It's not them, it's another one, it's the day we arrested people." Didn't they buy another killer to chase me to my house, the person was folded in the hands of Jingchen and you, and was sentenced to ten years, you are well-informed, I have heard the rumors recently, how is that person? ”

Xue Rui's expression changed slightly, he stopped, frowned, and said, "Yes, I was so busy a while ago that I forgot to tell you about it." ”

Yu Shu hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xue Rui said: "The man surnamed Qu committed suicide by hitting the wall in prison and died. ”

Yu Shu was stunned, "Dead, dead?" ”

Qu Hai in prison is dead, who is she locked up in the small courtyard, could it be a ghost?

"Well, dead."

"No, Qu Hai is obviously alive, she can't tell whether she is a human or a ghost.

Xue Rui saw that Yu Shu's face was cloudy, so he stopped moving forward, turned around, lowered his head and asked her, "What made you so panicked?" ”

Yu Shu licked his lips, frowned a pair of willow leaf scimitar eyebrows, and shook at him, "That Qu Hai is not dead, I saw him on the street yesterday and became a beggar, so I arrested him." ”

This time, Xue Rui's face changed, "Not dead?" How can it be. As soon as I heard the news of Qu Hai's death, I sent someone to the prison to inquire and confirm that Qu Hai had hit the wall and lost his breath and was thrown to a mass grave on the outskirts of the city, how could he be alive again, unless—"

Xue Rui was halfway to talking to himself, suddenly stopped, looked back at Yu Shu, and looked at Yu Shu with a look of surprise, and the two almost said in unison: "Fake death?!" ”

After a moment of silence, Yu Shu guessed: "This Qu Hai is ruthless enough, in order to escape from prison, he actually came up with a way to hit the wall and fake his death, I heard Jingchen say before that there is a kind of martial arts called Turtle Xigong on the rivers and lakes, which can block the heart, presumably he has similar skills, so that he can hide people's eyes and ears and hide from the jailer's sight." ”

Xue Rui was noncommittal, thought for a while, and then came back to his senses, frowned and asked her, "You just said that you arrested someone?" Why are you so bold, knowing that Lu Dao is an outlaw, you are still-"

Yu Shu saw that he was going to talk about himself, but he was afraid of being trained, so he hurriedly raised his hand to defend: "I don't have anyone, I went to the courtyard to buy two guards to take with me, and now Qu Hai is locked up in the small courtyard where I used to live and someone is watching, I originally planned to discuss with you first, but I have not been able to find you." ”

Speaking of this, she also pouted, expressing her grievances, Xue Rui didn't want to say anything about her anymore, she glared at her helplessly, and said: "You sleep peacefully today, and take me over early tomorrow morning, this matter is very strange, the surname Qu is not a death criminal, but he desperately wants to flee, there must be a hidden secret, maybe it is related to you, we have to find out, in case of accidents."
