15. The Beginning of the Matter - The Eve (Medium)

Linqing Mansion, in an inconspicuous house, Chu Ci half lay on the recliner in the courtyard, although it snowed last night, and it was a little cold outside, but fortunately, the sun came out at noon, and the thin snow in the yard also cleared out, Chu Ci let people light a stove between the two recliners, the fire rose, and suddenly the surroundings were warm, so comfortable.

Chu Ci lay comfortably on it, roasting the fire while swaying the recliner, leisurely.

"Master Lu, why don't you come and sit for a while, it's quite comfortable." Saying that, Chu Ci was like a child, and tapped the well on the side with his foot, so that the chair he was lying on was just right to shake up again.

Lu Qing didn't answer Chu Ci's words, but he sat on the railing of another porch, shaking his feet, his long snow-white hair slid down his shoulders, slid into the wind, and then fluttered melodiously in the wind there.

"Lu Gongzi, has your hair always been this color?" Seeing that Lu Qing ignored him, Chu Ci got up from the rocking chair, and then walked to the railing where Lu Qing was sitting.

Lu Qing seemed to be a little annoyed by the question of this Dadu Division, so he replied very casually: "Born, the doctor said that it is a disease that cannot be cured." ”

"It's really not curable? There is a medical hall in Kyoto Prefecture, and the medical skills are very superb, even higher than the imperial doctors in the palace, or when this is over, I will take you to take a look, maybe it can be cured," Chu Ci also followed Lu Qing's example, sat on the other side of the railing, and then continued, "Lu Qing, how old are you?" ”

"Twenty."

"You have white hair, tsk, who can tell you're twenty years old."

Lu Qing was a little impatient, so he turned his body sideways, trying not to let the appearance of this Dadu Si appear in his eyes.

Since a few days ago, after the two watched a good show at the Silver Hook Gambling House, this Chu Ci seemed to be familiar with himself, and from time to time he made fun of his white hair, at first he was respectful and answered the other party seriously, but later found out that the other party was really just joking because he was bored, Lu Qing began to be perfunctory at will, and sometimes he didn't want to answer, so he walked away directly, and then Chu Ci would not ask more questions with interest.

"I see that there have been a lot more people entering the Linqing Mansion in the past few days, and it seems that your method is still working." Chu Ci knew that Lu Qing was unwilling to deal with him, so he didn't continue on this topic, but moved on to another topic.

That day, Chu Ci wanted to bring Meng Runan and Qi Song out of the Silver Hook Gambling House, after all, that Dong Tiankuo didn't know what he could do in secret, but his idea was later stopped by Lu Qing, because he wanted to use Meng Runan and Qi Song to fish out the blood-washed Qijiazhuang, and at the same time make such a big move in Kyoto Mansion.

So there are various versions of Qijiazhuang circulating on the rivers and lakes, and the news that the survivors of Qijiazhuang are in Linqing Mansion are also spread by Lu Qing through Bai Xiaotang, Chu Ci originally disagreed, after all, Meng Runan is Qi Lianyu's mother, if because of this matter, Meng Runan has three long and two short, Qi Lianyu has to find himself desperately, until finally Lu Qing repeatedly assured Chu Ci that Bai Xiaotang would do things thoroughly, and nothing would happen, Chu Ci agreed to do so.

"I've asked the people of Bai Xiaotang to keep a close eye on their movements, as long as there is any movement, we will know as soon as possible."

Chu Ci seemed to think of a question, so he asked Lu Qing: "Do you say that this will startle the grass and snakes, I mean Meng Runan, will they leave here?" ”

Lu Qing shook his head again and said to Chu Ci: "I also let people stare at the Silver Hook Gambling Place. ”

Speaking of the Silver Hook Gambling House, Chu Ci naturally thought of the owner called Dong Tiankuo, in his opinion, that Dong Tiankuo was an extremely dangerous person, because he couldn't see through him.

"The owner of the Silver Hook Casino, is there any movement?"

"No, including that Xu Heng, he hasn't made any moves since he planned that assassination last time."

Chu Ci frowned, always feeling that this Dong Tiankuo was too low-key, and he couldn't figure him out at all.

"And when are you going to break up their affair at the Silver Hook Casino?"

"Tonight." Lu Qing said lightly.

Chu Ci was a little surprised by Lu Qing's answer, and asked noncommittally, "Are you sure those people are here?" ”

To Chu Ci's surprise, Lu Qing shook his head this time and said, "I'm not sure, but I've already given them time, if they don't act again, then I will be very disappointed in them." ”

After Lu Qing finished speaking, he laughed, and his face was full of arrogance that could not be concealed, as if he had already made up his mind.

It's just that Chu Ci didn't have the confidence of Lu Qing, his brows were tightly locked, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The gate of the "squeak" courtyard was opened, and Tong Ge's figure appeared there.

When Lu Qing saw Tong Ge, he knew that news was coming, so he stood up from the railing and then said hello to Tong Ge.

"Senior brother, there's news from junior brother." Tong Ge walked to Lu Qing's side.

"What's the news?"

"On the way from Kyoto Prefecture to Linqing Mansion, a remarkable person came."

Lu Qing listened to what Tong Ge said, and immediately became interested, so he asked, "How do you say it?" ”

"The little junior brother said that when he was there talking about Qijiazhuang, there was a young man with a mask who seemed to be very interested in Qijiazhuang, and he spent money to buy the news."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "Buy news? It's kind of interesting. ”

"That young man's strength should have reached that of a high-level martial artist, but it seems to be injured······"

Seeing Tong Ge's reaction, Lu Qing frowned, and said suspiciously: "Isn't it a high-level martial artist, he was also injured, what's the big deal?" ”

"There is one more person ······" At this point, Tong Ge paused, as if he didn't know how to speak.

"What's wrong? Who is that man? ”

"It's a coachman."

"Coachman?"

Tong Ge nodded and said to Lu Qing: "That's what the little junior brother wrote in the information, and the little junior brother can't see the strength of that person, but there is always a sense of danger, so the flying pigeon passed the book over to let us pay more attention." ”

Lu Qing listened to what Tong Ge said, and had his own thoughts in his heart, his little junior brother couldn't see the strength of that person, so there were only two possibilities, one was that the person was a great martial artist and had been able to restrain his momentum, and the other possibility was that that person was really an ordinary person.

Let a great martial artist be the coachman······ Thinking of this, Lu Qing smiled self-deprecatingly, there should be such a large-scale force yet.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, the little junior brother's feeling is wrong, that person is just an ordinary person, as for the young man wearing the mask, if he is not injured, the strength of the high-level martial artist will naturally give him a headache, but now······

Thinking of this, the previous arrogance had dissipated and appeared on Lu Qing's face again, which was a manifestation of sufficient confidence in himself and the forces he controlled.
