Chapter 187: The Possibility of "Impossible" (2 more)
Although this group of arsonists had confessed, saying that they were instructed by the eldest grandson Chong to come to the restaurant to set fire, Li Yi thought about it a little and felt that something was not quite right.
After all, the cousin of the eldest grandson Chong, Li Lizhen, is also in the branch of Zuixian Building today.
If there is really a fire accident today, then Li Lizhen will definitely not be able to escape.
What's more, in the heart of the eldest grandson, Sun Chong has always admired Li Lizhi and wants to marry her.
Although behind this, it is very likely that the eldest grandson Wuji is promoting, but the eldest grandson Chong really likes Li Liqing.
From the last polo conference, the eldest grandson Chong deliberately spoke out in front of Li Lizhi to belittle Li Yi, wanting to make Li Yi ugly, and winning to make Li Liqin happy, Li Yi can see it.
If these few of them really received the life of Changsun Chong, and specially came to Lantian County to set fire, wanting to disturb the opening ceremony of the Huangzui Xianlou branch, then Changsun Chong would definitely take care of Li Liqian's safety and would not act so recklessly.
Excluding these "impossible" possibilities, then there is only one explanation left-
These people have been lying from beginning to end!
Thinking of this, Li Yi's long eyelashes turned up slightly, a sneer floated at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes flashed, staring at this group of arsonists who had "personally confessed".
Sure enough, seeing Li Yi's gaze coming, the eyes of several of them trembled slightly, and they immediately buried their heads very low, and kept kowtowing vigorously, only caring about crying and begging for mercy:
"Childe, all of this is what the eldest grandson and son ordered! Childe, just spare the villain......"
"Childe, I won't dare to wait until now."
"There is an eighty-year-old mother on a certain one, and there is an August child who has just been breastfeeding, and a certain is also forced to be helpless, and I ask the son to be merciful and spare the villain's life......"
"Childe spares his life......"
The cries and cries of the arsonists followed one after another, sounding very sad.
No matter how it looks, it looks like Li Yi and others are not close to people.
"Hehe, I really can't see it, but you're pretending to be decent? If you don't go to Pingkangfang to sing Nanqu Peking Opera, it's a pity that your acting skills are so good! ”
Li Yi sneered faintly, and did not pay attention to them, but looked at Xiao Er on the side, his eyes swept lightly, and his voice indifferently ordered: "Come on, lock them up together, and wait for a while...... A detailed interrogation will be made again! ”
"Yes, Childe." Xiao Er, who got Li Yi's order, immediately tied them up with ropes and threw them into the firewood room where the murderer was held before.
Seeing this, Li Yi glanced at the diners around him again, waved his hand slightly, and motioned to Shopkeeper Xu and Xi Zhizhao to quickly let the diners around them return home and disperse.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Xu and Xi Zhizhao suddenly understood in their hearts, and with a slight nod, they immediately beckoned everyone around them and left the Drunken Immortal Building.
After half an hour passed, the entire Zuixianlou branch was quiet.
"General Chu, the safety of the Drunken Immortal Tower tonight will be handed over to you." Li Yi looked at Chu Limo on the side and said with a very serious face.
"Don't worry, Childe." Seeing Li Yi's extremely solemn face, Chu Limo also knew that today's matter must be very serious, so he nodded and smiled firmly.
Then, Chu Limo immediately turned around, looked at the Jin Wuwei people who came with him, and commanded: "A few of you, guard at the door of the restaurant; A few of you, patrol around the restaurant. ”
"Remember, don't miss any suspicious corners, and don't let go of any suspicious people!" After the command, Chu Limo solemnly admonished again.
"The last general understands, please rest assured!" The Jin Wuwei nodded loudly, and immediately divided the labor in an orderly manner, and began to patrol outside the Drunken Immortal Tower.
Seeing this, Li Yi was a little relieved, and took everyone to the firewood room.
It's just that seeing Li Yi giving such a command, and letting Jin Wuwei inspect around the restaurant, Wei Shuyu also knew in his heart that today's events were ...... It's not as simple as it seems.
Among them, maybe there is an even bigger conspiracy in it!
"Brother Boan." Wei Shuyu stepped forward in two steps, came to Li Yi's side, frowned and asked softly, "Are you suspicious...... These few people were not sent by Changsun Chong at all, but someone else? ”
Li Yi glanced at Wei Shuyu, he almost forgot that Wei Shuyu was the son of Wei Zheng, and he was really much more careful and intelligent than Cheng Chumo and other horsemen.
"That's right, Brother Shuyu." Slowly retracting his gaze, Li Yi said softly as he walked to the firewood room, "According to the character of Changsun Chong, he will not be so messy and dare to harm the lives of you and me, it should be someone else!" ”
As for the real reason why it would not be Changsun Chong, Li Yi did not tell Wei Shuyu that it was because Li Liqing was here that Changsun Chong did not dare to mess around like this.
But the reason he said should be enough to explain, and presumably Wei Shuyu can also understand it.
Hearing this, Wei Shuyu couldn't help but take a deep breath and frown and roll his eyes.
But suddenly, Wei Shuyu's heart thought of the biggest possibility, his eyes looked at Li Yi with a look of shock, and then looked at the people around him, but he didn't hurry to speak out.
He took two big breaths in a heartbeat, and he couldn't believe that it was possible...... That's how it will be!
If it is really as he guessed, then tonight, there will definitely be a tragic event!
"Brother Boan." Wei Shuyu grabbed Li Yi, who was walking forward, stared at him solemnly, and reminded softly, "According to my brother's humble opinion, we should first protect the safety of the princess and the little sister, and we must not have any negligence on top of this!" ”
Being reminded by Wei Shuyu like this, Li Yi also nodded solemnly, paused slightly, blinked at Wei Shuyu, and asked out loud: "Dare to ask Brother Shuyu, but what do you think?" ”
"You can't talk about high opinions, but you can't talk about low opinions...... The foolish brother has a plan. Wei Shuyu smiled worriedly, then stared at Li Yi, and said with a blanket look, "Brother Bo'an, although the martial arts of the Luo Tong brothers are indeed very strong, but the two fists are sometimes difficult to defeat the four hands, we might as well plan and deliberately loosen the protection of the princess and the little sister, and then wipe them out!" ”
Speaking of this, Wei Shuyu couldn't help but clench his fists in the air, but immediately, his face suddenly became solemn.
Taking a deep breath greatly, Wei Shuyu said with a solemn face: "It's just that in this way, I'm afraid ...... The princess and the little sister will have to worry about their lives. Therefore, the foolish brother said that this is a low view, not a high view! ”
Hearing Wei Shuyu's words, Li Yi grinned slightly, shook his head and said: "Brother Shuyu, although this plan is good, it is absolutely unacceptable, we can't bet on the safety of the princess and the little sister, just let someone make a bet." ”
"This ......" Wei Shuyu was a little speechless for a while, and in the blink of an eye, he muttered secretly in his heart, "Could it be ...... Isn't it what someone thinks it is? But someone else? ”
Seeing this, Li Yi patted Wei Shuyu on the shoulder, nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Shu Yu, someone has already planned it in his heart, and it will be fine." ”
"Whew...... That's the best. Wei Shuyu sighed and forced a smile, and did not argue with Li Yi again.
At the same time, Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin, who were following Li Yi and Wei Shuyu, saw that Li Yi and Wei Shuyu had been muttering softly, and they couldn't help but be stunned in their hearts.
Cheng Chumo was the first to speak up and said, "Brother Bo'an, Brother Shuyu, the two of you have been muttering quietly, what are you discussing?" ”
Seeing this, Yu Chi Baolin also turned her eyes in surprise and looked at Li Yi and Wei Shuyu.
"Haha!" Li Yi and Wei Shuyu both grinned, then looked at the two of them and said in unison, "I'm thinking, how to get you drunk later!" ”
"......" Cheng Chumo instantly rolled his eyes speechlessly, glaring at Li Yi and Wei Shuyu.
It's really this reason, and it's too far-fetched and too false to say.
Cheng Chumo didn't believe it at all.
Yu Chi Baolin didn't believe it either.
But just as the two of them were about to ask in unison, the figures of Li Yi and Wei Shuyu had slowly moved away and entered the firewood room.
"......" Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin were speechless and followed in.
Chu Limo followed and also entered the firewood room.
Inside the firewood room.
Seeing the few people who were gagged by Sebu and tied to the doorpost, Li Yi smiled slightly, and said with a warm face: "You guys, have you thought it out now?" If you honestly explain it now, maybe ...... You can also suffer less. ”
Wei Shuyu and the others watched from the sidelines, did not speak, and remained silent.
But the few people who were tied up immediately shrank their eyes aggrievedly when they heard Li Yi's words, and their faces were full of expressions of "We didn't lie, we looked innocent".
"Don't say yes?" Li Yi sneered, flicked his fingers upwards slightly, and Xi Zhizhao, who followed, immediately stepped forward in person and took away the corner of the leader's mouth.
Suddenly, the murderer who was able to speak immediately pleaded bitterly: "Childe, what they said just now is true, and the villain does not dare to deceive Childe, everything is really ordered by the eldest grandson, Childe!" ”
"Hmph." The corners of Li Yi's mouth curled, stared at him, and said with a smile, "At this time, are you still acting in front of someone?" Are you sure...... Does it have to be so? ”
"Childe, the villain is not acting, every word of the villain is true, if there is half a lie, let the thunder strike one day, and it will not be a good death." The leader explained, trembling and frightened.
"Huh." Li Yi smiled and didn't say more, but Wei Shuyu on the side smiled coldly and said, "Brothers, you see, you can even say such words of cursing yourself casually, it seems that ...... They are not dead in the heart of the Yellow River. ”
"Hmph, such a vicious oath can be spoken, and what they said before is even more unbelievable!" Cheng Chumo snorted coldly with his hands clenched into fists.
Seeing this, Yu Chi Baolin raised her footsteps slightly, and was about to go up and beat him, but fortunately she was pulled by Wei Shuyu beside her, which did not let him "succeed".
Wei Shuyu smiled and said: "Brother Bo'an, since they are so hard-mouthed, between the foolish brothers, it is better to let the Brother Chu Mo do it, presumably ...... They'll be recruited in a moment. ”
"Let so-and-so do it? Okay! Brother Shu Yu! Cheng Chumo was suddenly overjoyed, looked at Li Yi with a grin, and proposed, "Brother Bo'an, since they are so hard-mouthed, it seems that they have no choice but to come up with the 'housekeeping skills'!" ”
Li Yi smiled slightly, naturally knowing what he meant by "housekeeping skills".
The last time he dealt with Dongying's envoy to Tang, Cheng Chumo had used this trick, and Li Yi knew how powerful this trick was.
"Okay, Brother Chumo, then I'll leave it to you!" Li Yi nodded coldly.
"Hehe, Brother Bo'an, you can rest assured and boldly hand it over to so-and-so." Cheng Chumo smiled evilly, and immediately beckoned to Xiao Er beside him, Xiao Er immediately listened to Cheng Chumo's advice, Xiao Er quickly turned around and went out.
It didn't take long for Xiao Er to go and return, but in his hand, he also took a small bamboo tube at this moment and came to the firewood room with him.
Seeing the posture of Cheng Chumo and others, and seeing the bamboo tube in the small second-hand, the person in charge suddenly secretly said that something was wrong.
He half-shrunk his head, his eyes widened with trembling, and he cried out in horror, "You...... You guys...... What do you want? So-and-so has already confessed truthfully! ”
"Hehe, liars, they have always been disgusted!" Cheng Chumo sneered very "pretendingly", then shook his shirt seriously, and said slowly, "I'm sorry, you are this kind of person." ”
"......" Li Yi and the others suddenly couldn't stand it.
He didn't expect that Cheng Chumo, a handsome fool, would learn to pretend to be forced, and shouted speechlessly: "Brother Chumo, don't talk nonsense, hurry up!" ”
"......" Cheng Chumo's mouth twitched, and then he walked towards the murderer and began to execute...
