Chapter 302: Melon Affairs
Zheng Laoba led Fang Zi'an to the well fence in the backyard, Fang Zi'an drew water from the well, poured it into the water basin next to it, and moved the watermelons one by one to soak in the cold water.
Zheng Laoba was still soft-handed and soft-footed, and said in a low voice: "I'm scared to death, I thought he found out your identity." ”
Fang Zi'an laughed coldly: "That's just a temptation. This guy is also fine. It's a pity, trying to scare me? He's still a little tender. ”
Zheng Laoba raised his big finger and praised: "Fang Gongzi is really admirable, if it were me, I'm afraid it would be a fart." ”
Fang Zi'an nodded slightly, straightened up, picked up two empty baskets, and said in a deep voice: "Zheng Laoba, you did a very good job." After you help me this time, the past grudges between you and me will be written off. When I return to the capital, I will burn your confession in front of you. ”
Zheng Laoba smiled bitterly: "Do you still care about that confession?" You'd better get past the catastrophe in front of you. ”
Fang Zi'an squinted his eyes and said, "Zheng Laoba, in fact, you are not a bad person, but the road is crooked." ”
Zheng Laoba sighed: "It's too late to say this now, but I have already decided to wash my hands in the golden basin, and I will never do anything that hurts nature and reason in the future, just messing around." ”
Fang Zi'an nodded, turned around and walked two steps, suddenly turned around, shot two sharp glances from under the straw hat, looked at Zheng Laoba and said: "Zheng Laoba, the path of life is chosen by yourself, and you can turn back if you make a mistake, as long as you are determined to repent." I can help you. I can show you the right way. It's not too late for you to turn back, I remember you're only in your thirties, right? If a man lived to be seventy years old, you would have a long life to come. ”
The black mole on the corner of Zheng Laoba's mouth trembled, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Fang Zi'an said in a low voice: "Right now, I'll give you a chance." You remember to me, tonight, you don't want to eat a single bite of the watermelon here. Got it? ”
Zheng Laoba's body was shocked, and he was shocked and said, "You...... Is this melon ......?"
Fang Zi'an said coldly: "It's good that you understand it in your heart, you don't need to say it too clearly." Don't you eat watermelon, do you hear clearly? ”
Zheng Laoba nodded again and again, and said in a dumb voice: "Clear, clear." ”
Fang Zi'an nodded, and said again in a low voice: "I can be regarded as saving your life and giving you a chance to be a new person, you don't want to waste it." Of course, you can also choose to go to the whistleblower, so maybe you will be appreciated by Qin Lu, and maybe you will get a lot of rewards. But you've lost the opportunity I gave you forever. As I said, they couldn't catch me, and even if I revealed my identity now, they wouldn't want to catch me. Once I get out of trouble, you Zheng Laoba will be the first person I want to get rid of, do you understand? ”
Zheng Laoba nodded again and again, raised his hand and seemed to want to swear again. Fang Zi'an had already picked up the burden and turned around and walked towards the front yard. Zheng Laoba swallowed and foamed, calmed down his emotions, and quickly followed, all the way to send Fang Zi'an out of the inn, watching him disappear into the sunset street.
As the sun set, the officials who had been busy in the city for a day and some of the Qin Mansion guards who had rushed to the capital had no gain, and they all closed their teams to rest. Only a small number of people were left in the city to set up card checks.
Fang Zi'an was sitting in the woods of Tibetan horses, watching the red sun gradually sinking in the west through the cracks in the trees. Not far away, Shen Ling'er took a branch and whipped it on the ground, looking very displeased.
Fang Zi'an turned around and said to Shen Ling'er, "Ling'er, it's time for us to leave." ”
Shen Ling'er pouted and said angrily: "It's better for you to go by yourself, you don't need me anyway." ”
Fang Zi'an smiled, walked to Shen Ling'er's side, hugged her waist and whispered, "Are you still angry about my afternoon?" I asked you to come back here and wait for me, not because I dislike you for getting in the way, but because I want to go to the inn, and it is convenient for me to act alone. The two of them are likely to be recognized. Qin Lu's dog thing did test me, and slashed me on the forehead with a knife. If you were there, you would have done it right away. ”
Shen Ling'er said: "It's not that I don't like it, I can't hold my breath." Actually, I'm not saying that you dislike me. Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do that? My mission is to protect you, and when you go on an adventure, I can only come back to see the horses. If Miss Qin knew about this, I was afraid that she would scold me. What if you make a mistake? ”
Fang Zi'an smiled: "I know in my heart, some risks are worth taking." Why should I take this risk? So that we can get out of it tonight. ”
Shen Ling'er was surprised: "What? Are you going to leave tonight? ”
Fang Zi'an nodded slowly and said, "Our whereabouts are revealed, and if we stay here for a day, it will be dangerous for a day." Qin Lu, since they are here, they will not stop until they catch us. In the past two days, they have closed the city and searched, set up card checks, and tossed back and forth. If this continues, sooner or later we will be discovered. It's better to get out of here sooner, lest you not be able to get out. ”
Shen Ling'er said: "What about the champion Zhang?" Didn't you say that the evidence was not enough? ”
Fang Zi'an nodded slowly and said, "Just based on the confession that I made, naturally my strength is not enough. I would have liked to find more evidence. Now I hope that Zhao Xi can find out the whereabouts of the servant girl Xiaomei, and the testimony of the servant girl plus the testimony of the servant girl will be enough to reverse the case. ”
Shen Ling'er said softly: "Then what if you don't find the maid Xiaomei?" ”
Fang Zi'an said: "Then I have to leave tonight and leave with that servant." Although the testimony was not enough, it was enough for Master Shi and the prince to have something to talk to, so that the case could be rehearsed. It's just that the outcome is difficult to predict. I also want to make things perfect, but sometimes, things can't be perfect, and that's when you have to know how to make trade-offs. I don't want to lose my life here. ”
Shen Ling'er nodded and said, "Childe, how are we going to get out of the city tonight?" ”
Fang Zi'an said: "Use Zhao Xi's identity to take us out of the city." ”
Shen Ling'er said: "But when they find out that Zhao Xi has disappeared, they will definitely catch up." Will Qin Lu let us go? ”
Fang Zi'an smiled: "Do you know what I went to Qin Lu's inn where they stayed?" I sent them more than twenty large watermelons. It cost me more than two taels of silver. I also added some toppings to the watermelon. Do you know what it is? ”
Shen Ling'er looked at Fang Zi'an in surprise, Fang Zi'an squeezed his eyes and whispered, "Honey croton soup." Must-have medicine for loose bowel movements. After I asked you to leave, I went to the pharmacy and bought half a pound of croton and a pound of honey. The croton was boiled into a soup, mixed with honey, and all of it was injected into the watermelon with a needle. Those guys are going to eat melons to cool off tonight, do you know what the consequences are? Hehehe. Honey croton soup, the gods are also difficult to be, keep a crotch. They will pull the dead and come back to life. Even if they knew we were gone, they wanted to chase us, but they couldn't. By the time their diarrhea has healed, we are afraid that we will be in the capital soon. ”
Shen Ling'er never expected that Fang Zi'an would actually go to the inn to do this. It sounds like a prank. But when I thought about it, if I really succeeded, the other party would have diarrhea and diarrhea, and I could only watch the two of them escape.
"But Childe, why don't you just poison them all and poison them all? Wouldn't it be cheaper to put only the medicine for diarrhea? Didn't you say that those people were innocent of the dead? Shen Ling'er said.
Fang Zi'an looked at Shen Ling'er and laughed: "I knew you were going to ask this, Ling'er, you are really ruthless, what you think in your heart is to kill these guys in one hundred places." But do you think I don't want to? Even if I slaughter Qin Lu and them all in this Wuhu City, I won't blink my eyes. They couldn't find any evidence of me. But...... I can't do that. It is not possible to poison watermelon, ordinary poisons have a pungent taste, and injecting into watermelon will make the melon flesh discolored, which can be seen at a glance. You don't even need to eat it to know that it is poisoned. The same goes for sweat pills and stuff. Unless there is a colorless and odorless poison, where am I going to find it? Croton boiled honey has no other taste except sweetness. The soup is a little viscous, just enough to clog the small holes that are injected, so that the watermelon juice will not flow out, and it will be discovered. So, that's the best choice. It's a pleasure to slaughter them all, but since you can't do it, you have to settle for the next best thing. As long as we can get out of it, that's it. If you want to slaughter these people, won't you have a chance in the future? ”
Shen Ling'er nodded and said, "Childe is really thoughtful. Those people didn't expect Childe to deal with them like this. Are all these plans in Childe's mind in mind? ”
Fang Zi'an shook his head and said: "The most important thing to do is the word 'improvisation'. No matter how perfect the plan is, it may not come true, and there will always be other accidents. Just like when we came this time, we never thought that we would leak the news and attract Qin Lu's gang. Qin Lu's plan is to seal the county seat, take us, and kill us on the spot. But he never thought that there was one of my people among his people. Zheng Laoba actually came, do you think this was an accident? When I saw Zheng Laoba, I had this plan. That's improvisation. ”
Shen Ling'er nodded and said, "I learned." Childe will teach me more about this in the future. ”
Fang Zi'an smiled bitterly: "What are you learning to do here?" You girl, learn better in the future, don't kill people all day long, learn these tricks. Alright, it's getting late, let's put on the bridles and get ready. It's also convenient to leave when you go. Then, we're going to find Zhao Xi. ”
Shen Ling'er said unconvinced: "Hmph, you don't teach, I will learn it secretly." I don't want to stay at home every day sewing and mending clothes. I'm not here to hurt anyone, I just hope I can help my son in the future. Otherwise, you go on an adventure, and I can only watch the horses here. ”
Fang Zi laughed, didn't argue with her, and went to tidy up the saddle bridle by himself. Shen Ling'er also went to tidy up the saddle bridles. When the two of them came out of the woods and walked towards the streets of the city, the sun had already set over the western city wall, and the sky was like a dark blue curtain covering the whole world, high and mysterious.
