Chapter 347: Too Many Doubts (One Update)
Yunxiao saw that the master suddenly frowned, and was a little worried: "Master, what's wrong?" Painful wounds? ”
Qi Haoning shook his head and asked rhetorically, "You just said that the woman was crying and helpless?" ”
Yun Xiaoqi said: "Yes, it's not pitiful. However, if it weren't for helplessness, how could a weak woman follow a group of men out to the open sea to fish, and how could she be taken away by pirates? ”
General Haiyong also followed Yunxiao's words and said, "Isn't it? Speaking of which, Bihe's life is not good, she has no parents since she was a child, and she depends on her grandfather, and her grandfather also died two years ago, so she supports herself by helping others wash clothes and make some female celebrities.
Unexpectedly, ten days ago, her uncle took an IOU of fifty taels of silver to force debts, and if he couldn't get the money, he would sell her to a landlord in his fifties as a concubine.
Bihe's temperament was very strong, and she was about to die on the spot, and her uncle gave her a one-month deadline in desperation. Hearing that Bihe's diving skills are good, she wants to risk her luck in the deep sea, hoping to pick better quality pearls in exchange for silver, so she goes to sea with her kind neighbors. ”
Qi Haoning suddenly thought of something: "Uncle Jing, you just said that she was injured?" Where's the injury? ”
General Haiyong smiled: "It's not very serious, my ankle is broken, and my left hand is broken." Pull you to fall while escaping, and then hit the hand against the rock. ”
"Oh," after a slight hesitation, Qi Haoning smiled, "Uncle Jing, such a backbone woman, we may not keep her for her good, or help her buy a new houseboat, leave her 200 taels of silver, and let her return to her familiar place." Other than that. Isn't there a government-run pearl workshop in Qingyuan County? We have no problem letting her in, right? ”
General Haiyong thought for a moment. That's right. That's the best arrangement. The female workers in the pearl workshop are well paid and have stable jobs, and they cannot enter without guarantees and connections.
And working in the pearl workshop, it is a free body, and she can go home every day, and it will not affect Bihe when she gets married in the future, which is really the best "placement" for her.
"Okay, that's it." General Haiyong said, "This matter is left to me, you have a good rest." It's going well on the island, and there's nothing to worry about, so I'll talk about it when you're well. ”
Qi Haoning responded, just taking advantage of this time to sort out his thoughts and find out the dark worm. Although he accidentally solved the Water Dragon King this time and escaped the catastrophe, Qi Haoning still found too many suspicious points and needed to sort them out.
"Ning Shizi. After finishing the business, General Haiyong thought of Su Miaochan's question and had to explain it to Qi Haoning. "If my niece and granddaughter have any offense, please do so, uh, she is also a poor child, and no one has taught her well before, I will ask Madame to hire a nurturing mother for her, and I will also tell her about her family affairs as soon as possible."
Qi Haoning smiled meaninglessly: "That's fine." Uncle Jing doesn't have to feel uncomfortable because of this, I know it in my heart. "Every family has some troublesome relatives, what kind of position General Haiyong's eldest sister is in his heart Qi Haoning can completely understand. As long as Su Miaochan is not meticulous, everything else is easy to say, and he just avoids it himself.
After General Haiyong and his wife left, Qi Haoning glanced at the shadow, and the shadow flew out of the window to patrol around, and several guards were guarding in their respective positions, and quickly flew back.
Qi Haoning asked Yunxiao: "What happened to Mrs. Liang and Da Mao?" ”
Yunxiao said: "I didn't expect that the old woman's skills are not ordinarily good, and she can escape, fortunately, you have taken precautions and asked your two senior brothers to help, and now they are locked up on Guiyi Island." Da Mao didn't wait for his grandmother to come back and came to ask for the prince, so I took him to ask the housekeeper to send someone out to find him. ”
The shadow "poofed" and smiled: "Master, haven't you seen that Yunxiao is really the material for singing, it looks decent." ”
Yunxiao gave him a punch and said proudly: "What is singing?" This is called fighting wisdom with the fine work, isn't it? Master, I really expected it, the old woman didn't come back for two days and two nights, and the little one was at a loss, and hid in an abandoned house outside the city and sent a letter. However, we cut it down and changed the content. Master, there is even a secret passage in that abandoned house, tsk, there are really two fucking widows, one old and one young can do so many things. ”
Shadow disdainfully: "Didn't we catch it anyway?" If it weren't for the trap they set up to intercept our so-called 'firearms manufacturing workshop drawings', the prince would have done his thing, and he wouldn't have been able to take the water dragon king. ”
Qi Haoning frowned: "No, now that I look back, someone deliberately led me to the bandits' den that day, and besides, I am not in the same group as those two widows." Yunxiao, what did the person who stared at Su Miaochan say? Did Su Miaochan have any movement in those two days? ”
Yunxiao shook her head: "She almost does the same thing every day, and she doesn't find anything abnormal." Until the night you returned, she didn't know what was wrong with her nerves, and she dared to run into the house alone. ”
Qi Haoning was silent for a while: "Keep staring, explain it, don't be careless." In addition, let people keep an eye on Bihe, even after she goes back, she has to keep an eye on it. ”
Yunxiao and the others were startled: "What are you doing?" Master, do you mean that the person who led you to the bandits' den was Bihe or her accomplices? ”
"But, since we led you there, why did I need to save you?" Shadow thinks this isn't an extra move?
Qi Haoning glared at him: "Is the purpose of the fine work to take the master's life?" Why don't you send a few more assassins? ”
"Yes, too" Shadow scratched his head and laughed. Among the people they cultivated in the same batch back then, there were those who did fine work, hidden piles, and shadow guards. At that time, he really wanted to be a dark stake, but unfortunately the people above said that his fists were better than his head, and it was most suitable to be a shadow guard.
Yunxiao is very excited, since he concluded that Liang's wife and grandchildren are the fine works of the Japanese people, he has had a strong interest in "ghost hunting". The head is full of what the prince said, "The less people who don't look like fine work, the more fine work", he now looks at everyone like fine work, Ha Lu Ha.
"But sir, how did you find out?" Yunxiao had just finished asking, and suddenly realized, "Master, were you pretending to be unconscious?" What did you see that Biho doing? ”
Qi Haoning grabbed a book in his hand and threw it over, scolding with a smile: "Pretend to be you, the master was unconscious at that time, how can you pretend?" ”
"Oh, master, you light, don't pull your own wounds," Yunxiao couldn't care about dodging, so frightened that he quickly leaned over to check the white cotton cloth tied to Qi Haoning's chest, and didn't see any blood oozing out before he calmed down.
Qi Haoning pouted: "It's just a small injury, how can you be so squeamish?" ”
Yunxiao smiled shyly: "Master, although the wound is not deep, it is quite long, the wound medicine given by Lord Qi is good, but Lang Zhong said that if you are not careful, the scar will be very ugly." Master, aren't you worried that the night of the candle in the cave room will scare the county lord? ”
"......" Qi Haoning was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, "You are talking nonsense...... How can it be so exaggerated? "But I really don't dare to move. The wound is on the chest, Yao'er will really see it then, he doesn't want Yao'er to see the long and ugly scar.
Yunxiao saw that the conspiracy succeeded, and smiled proudly: "Don't worry, don't take care of it, don't move around, Lang Zhong said that you can't eat things and never touch them, and you won't leave ugly scars." You see that my last knife wound was so deep, and then it was only a shallow scar, didn't it? Don't say it, the Lord of Qi gave all the good things. ”
Speaking of this, Qi Haoning was happy: "Of course. Thinking of Shu Yao's repeated exhortations when parting, his heart was soft and soft.
The shadow couldn't wait: "Master, you should say it quickly, what did Bihe do?" If she really did me chop her, we still regarded her as your savior, and almost didn't offer her up. "It's really not an exaggeration to say that shadow, when they saw Qi Haoning, who was unconscious in Bihe's tow but still breathing and heartbeat, appeared in front of them that day, they really wanted her to be Guanyin Bodhisattva who rescued the suffering. At that time, they were asked to kneel to her, and both of them would kneel without hesitation.
Qi Haoning shook his head: "I'm not sure, I just strung together the things before and after, and I felt that there were too many doubts and too many coincidences." Think about it, if it weren't for that strange note, how would we have ended up in that stone house? How could they be besieged by the serpents? And then you hit the big waves? This is obviously someone who is very familiar with the changes at sea and deliberately set up a game. ”
The shadow thought of what happened after he protected the retreat of the Li Governor's Mansion, and he understood a little: "They know that you have a good water nature and will not give up, but they will let others retreat." ”
Qi Haoning nodded approvingly: "Exactly, also, I will swim to the reef like the island where the bandits' den is located, and they have calculated it." At that time, the waves were very strong, and I was far away from the place where I was washed, and I only found my way when I saw the red dots in the distance, and when I swam closer, I saw that it was a strip of red cloth hanging from the tree. When I got on the reef, I realized that it was a bandit's den, and a happy event was being held. ”
Yunxiao leaned over: "Even if someone deliberately calculates, why do you suspect Bihe?" The people of her village proved that she had indeed been taken captive by the Water Dragon King. ”
Qi Haoning glared at her: "Master said, there are too many coincidences." Also, when I sneaked in and hid, I caught a glimpse of her, and at that time, the Water Dragon King and the gang of pirates were drinking, and she sat next to her, looking at them with no fear in her eyes, only disdain and pride. ”
Yunxiao quickly reacted: "No, she is a weak village girl, and she still has this kind of courage? She was trembling when she talked about the abduction that day. ”
Qi Haoning nodded: "Think about it again, her uncle is going to sell her as a concubine, and she will be killed at that time." was captured by the Water Dragon King to be the lady of the village, she said that she couldn't escape, couldn't she die? As far as I saw them, there was a barbecue knife not far away. ”
Seeing that Yunxiao and the two of them nodded in agreement, Qi Haoning's eyes suddenly rolled, and Da Lu laughed: "Of course, maybe she saw that the Water Dragon King was not old, and he was also tall and burly, and she was reluctant to die, hahaha." (To be continued......)
