Chapter 44: Eating Together
Zhou Huanchun closed her eyes, frowned slightly, and in the end, she shook her head heavily and said, "Thank you Que Wuchang for knowing everything, I ...... I want to be alone for a while. ”
Que Qing's eyes lowered, and she couldn't help but say, "Actually...... I ......"
Looking at Que Qing's embarrassed appearance, Zhou Huanchun asked, "Chief Que Wu, do you have anything else?" ”
"I ...... No...... No...... I'll take my leave......"
Que Qing snorted, her eyes wandered, and she hurriedly left the room.
Zhou Huanchun looked at Que Qing's back, her starry eyes were clouded with a layer of fog, and she carefully thought about Que Qing's strange reaction when she proposed to Bu Shaoyuan to stay in the Ding No. 12 barracks......
Subsequently, she asked the accountant Xiaocheng to invite Xia Zhanshu and the bookkeeper Xiaopu to discuss matters related to tiger hunting.
……
Finally, Zhou Huanchun particularly emphasized: "After today, we will go to the room to dine with everyone!" ”
The bookkeeper Xiaocheng especially likes to be quiet, and he can't see many scenes, he frowned, and couldn't help asking: "If we don't come here to join the army, why do we have to abide by the rules here, isn't it more convenient to let the cook directly deliver the meal into the room?" ”
Zhou Huanchun raised her sword eyebrows, drank Bichun tea, and had her own considerations in her heart, "Don't be impatient, listen to me explain slowly......"
"All the food in the room is served in the same container, if someone secretly poisons it, it will inevitably poison a large number of people in the barracks, and it is difficult not to attract the attention of other military camps in the surrounding area......
"However, if the food is given to a designated person alone, it will make it easier for people to poison it, and the chance of poisoning will be greater!"
The bookkeeper Xiaocheng suddenly realized, and exclaimed in amazement: "Oh...... Or Miss Wise! ”
Zhou Huanchun nodded at the little orange in the account room, indicating that it had come to the end of the discussion.
In the dim light, she said with a resolute face and burning eyes: "Finally, at the end, I must remind again!" ”
"Everyone! None of the things you need to hunt tigers tomorrow will be left behind! Remember! ”
Xia Zhanshu, Xiao Pu, and Xiao Cheng all nodded their heads again and again, and then they each retired.
After they left, Zhou Huanchun thought about it again......
Recently, spending time with the three of them has taught her many unsolved things in the past.
From the very beginning, she let Xia Zhanshu accompany her, because she had heard about Xia Zhanshu's past deeds in the general's mansion.
He is an experienced "old Jianghu", walking on the rivers and lakes, and everything he does is to hoe the strong and help the weak and support justice.
Because of these two "nosy" actions, Xia Zhanshu provoked many enemies for himself.
His enemies have tried many vicious ways to kill him, and the most vicious one is ......
They took advantage of Xia Zhanshu's unpreparedness to capture his wife and daughter and force him to abandon his martial arts, but when Xia Zhanshu did what the enemy demanded, his enemy broke the agreement and slaughtered his wife and daughter in front of him and prepared to take him down in one fell swoop.
With the complete loss of martial arts, he experienced the most difficult bloody battle of his life!
Although he suffered forty-seven knife wounds, he still struggled to resist, the fire of hatred burning in his heart supported him to burst out of unlimited potential in the case of exhausted martial arts, he wanted to see his wife, he wanted to see his daughter, at this time, he had to go underground to see him!
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Zhanshu fell into extreme madness, his attack was extremely brave, and all the murderers around him were torn apart and shattered by his attack!
His enemies were frightened and didn't dare to send people to melee again, so they had to use the strategy of wanting to capture and indulge in the past, and slowly wear down Xia Zhanshu's will!
Xia Zhanshu dragged his crippled body, running in a panic, in the dark forest, the sharp arrow penetrated the light, and fired directly at Xia Zhanshu's throat......
Just when the feather arrow was about to pierce Xia Zhanshu's throat, Zhou Muxian, a partial general who was patrolling outside, saved him!
Those who have escaped death have a light view of many things.
Xia Zhanshu did not go to the enemy to take revenge, in order to repay the general, he Shen Jian withdrew his troops, bid farewell to his career in the rivers and lakes for more than 20 years, and became an ordinary military judge in the general's mansion.
As for Zhou Jin Muwu's cheating has not been revealed, there is a new explanation in these days.
Xia Zhanshu already knew that Zhou Jinmu's defeat of the third-grade rank sect leader was mixed with water, but even the people who were defeated by Zhou Jinmu didn't have the courage to expose Zhou Jinmu and speak up for themselves.
Pinning his fate on others and waiting for others to save him, he disdains to stand up for this kind of villain who is weak and deceitful in essence despite his martial arts.
Even if he comes out for this person, I'm afraid that in the end he will not blame the cheater, but his nosy old bone......
Having said that, Zhou Huanchun brought Xiao Pu and Xiao Cheng to the account room on this trip, which is the meaning of the second lady and the general, after getting along for the past few days, they are indeed steady, and their martial arts are not weak.
……
Thinking about tomorrow, Zhou Huanchun focused on Zhou Jinmu's relics again.
His relics were stacked next to the wooden table, she looked at it for a long time, and did not find a problem, among which there were many letters sent by Guo Zhixi to Zhou Jinmu, the closest one from now, the content was related to the Dragon Boat Festival, the letter recorded Guo Zhixi's longing for her son, and the list of gifts she gave to Zhou Jinmu, those gifts were also placed in the baggage, and there was no trace of being moved......
Still don't have a clue......
……
Feeling a little bored, Zhou Huanchun pushed the window to look at the moon, her face was breezy, and after a while, a trace of tiredness hit her......
At the moment when she covered herself with the quilt, she was still thinking, I really hope everything goes well......
But nine times out of ten, life is not as expected, and Zhou Huanchun's ideas may still be in vain......
……
A quarter of an hour later, Que Qing and his three younger brothers sneakily appeared around Ding No. 12 barracks.
All four of them were dressed in black night clothes, covered with hats and veils, and had black gloves on their hands, looking fully armed.
Xiao Qi frowned, with suspicion in her eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Boss, why are you in a hurry to come to the periphery of Miss Zhou's barracks on the twelfth day after Miss Zhou falls asleep without explaining anything, do you want to peek at Miss Zhou's...... Sleeping face. ”
Que Qing pointed at himself, and then reached out and poked Xiaoqi's temple.
He lowered his voice but still had residual authority, "Xiaoqi - your boss, am I that kind of person?" Do you only have seven seconds to remember? Can't remember what happened at all, do you?! ”
Xiao Qi's poked head and wanted to run but didn't dare to run out couldn't help but amused Que Qing, he "easily" let Xiao Qi go, wrapped his arms around Xiao Qi's neck, and said viciously: "If you kid is so heartless in the future, I will cut off your head and give Xiao Feng and Xiao Long a ball to kick!" ”
Xiao Qi's eyes were shining, and she nodded vigorously.
"Then don't talk nonsense, follow me!"
After speaking, Que Qing performed light skills, led Xiaoqi and the others to jump, stepped on the leaves with both feet, and stepped on the green tiles on the roof of the No. 12 barracks in no time.
Que Qing sneaked slowly with his waist, for fear of alarming the people in the room, and said in a low voice: "The spare hornet's nest that was placed on the roof of Zhou Jinmu last time has not been taken off yet!" ”
"In case one or two hornets fly to the back room and sting out of Miss Zhou's flowery face, it will be my Que Qing's sin!"
Xiao Feng asked puzzledly, "Why didn't the boss take it down before?" ”
"How did I know that the eldest lady was going to live in this room before" Que Qing stretched out her hand and pointed down at the barracks, and rolled her eyes, and then whispered to Xiaofeng: "Now, follow me to get the hornet's nest into the woods!" ”
Xiao Qi realized it later, only then did he remember that there was such a thing, and after being stunned, he hurriedly followed his Que Qing boss.
After a while, the four of them had found the place where the hornet's nest fell, Xiao Feng and Xiao Long quickly wrapped the prepared steel cloth around the hornet's nest, and the four of them once again performed light skills and jumped off the roof, preparing to retreat.
At the moment of landing, Xia Zhanshu took a torch and led Xiao Cheng and Xiao Pu to surround the four of them.
Que Qing signaled a breakthrough with a look, but Xiao Qi and the others were subdued by Xiao Pu and Xiao Cheng in order to protect the hornet's nest in their hands.
Que Qing was unwilling to leave her companion behind, and the two sides were at a stalemate.
At the same time, Xia Zhanshu invited Zhou Huanchun out of the house, and Zhou Huanchun asked Xiao Pu to unveil Xiaoqi and others, and the identity of the person at the head was about to come out!
I saw Zhou Huanchun standing in front of the barracks, his sword eyebrows were frosty, his starry eyes were sharp, and he said heavily to the only man in black who was not subdued: "Commander Que, if you don't make it clear today, the reason why you are wearing a night suit and come uninvited, don't blame me for being ruthless!" ”
Now that Zhou Huanchun has seen through his disguise, if he forcibly breaks through at this time, I am afraid that this matter will be pushed to a more complicated situation.
Que Qing had nothing to do, so she hurriedly lifted the black veil on her face and made a "pause" action, indicating that there was still room for things to turn around.
He ran to Zhou Huanchun, knelt on one knee, clenched his fists with both hands, and said with a straight face while panting: "Miss Zhou, I assure you, I really only stung Zhou Jinmu with a hornet, and the fact that he was bitten to death by a tiger has nothing to do with me!" ”
"If what I say is half false, the eldest lady can just beat me until I can't even recognize my mother!"
Zhou Huanchun's red lips hooked up a shallow smile, and slowly opened her lips and said, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
Seeing that Zhou Huanchun was no longer in trouble, Que Qing tilted her head slightly, blushed and twisted and said, "Actually...... I...... I brought people to the Ding No. 12 barracks to trick Zhou Jinmu...... Hornet's nest retrieval ...... lest the eldest lady be harmed......"
After hearing Que Qing's words, Zhou Huanchun glanced at the things wrapped in the black cloth that Xiaoqi was holding tightly.
Presumably it's a hornet's nest inside!
Zhou Huanchun raised her eyebrows and asked, "This is why you look different because I stayed in the Ding No. 12 barracks?" ”
"Yes!" Que Qing stared at the clear and innocent peach blossom eyes and nodded heavily.
Zhou Huanchun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I believe in you, but you still have to answer me a question."
In order to prove her innocence, Que Qing hurriedly nodded.
"What do you want to say to me in the room, why do you want to stop talking?"
Que Qing thought to himself, this time it was not that he wanted to mention it, but Miss Zhou took the initiative to ask, then he had to say it! ”
He took a deep breath and said, "I just want to ask you what methods you have to deal with the tigers in the deep dark forest, after all, the deep dark forest is unfathomable and dangerous......
"But in the end, I still thought that I shouldn't have overstepped my duty to ask about it, so in the end, I didn't ask."
Zhou Huanchun was full of confidence, and said in a clear voice: "Thank you for your concern, if I am not sure, I will not come!" He cleared his throat again and said, "Tonight, I won't tell anyone about this." ”
Of course, Que Qing knew that the other person that Miss Zhou was referring to was Bu Shaoyuan, he looked at Zhou Huanchun fixedly, and secretly admired in his heart-
