Chapter Thirty-Seven: Tie Your Hands?
There are many people in this world, they choose many different professions, some choose to go into battle to kill the enemy, some choose to study and take the exam, some choose to carry sacks, but no matter what, it is a means of making a living.
And Xiao Liuer's means of making a living is to be a gentleman on the beam!
In the entire area of Wannian County, for Xiao Liu'er, he can walk back and forth almost with his eyes closed, so familiar and familiar that he almost doesn't have to go out of his way to step on the plate, he can know whose house is worth going to and whose house is gone, and he will return empty-handed.
Because of this, tonight's Xiao Liu'er's goal is placed in Liu Dalang's house.
In fact, he has been staring at Liu Dalang for the past few days, knowing that Liu Dalang went to the rich and noble's house, and now, for some reason, he came back, but one thing is for sure, there must be something brought from the rich and noble family at home.
It's just a pity that Liu Dalang has been at home for the past few nights, and he can't find any opportunity to start, so he can only scratch his ears and cheeks and stay at his home, waiting for the opportunity to come.
Sure enough, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and this evening, Liu Dalang actually went out.
And said that he would not come back tonight, and entrusted Grandma Liu at the corner of the street to go to his house tomorrow morning to help clean the house, and gave Grandma Liu a large sum of money for this.
Xiao Liu'er felt that his opportunity had come, so when it was completely dark, he quietly walked out of his house, sticking to the wall, and walked carefully all the way to Liu Dalang's house.
When he was not far from Liu Dalang's house, seeing that there was no one on the left and right, Xiao Liu'er suddenly quickened his pace, like a civet cat. 'Whoosh', and easily climbed the courtyard wall of Liu Dalang's house. After a slight pause, he easily landed in the courtyard.
And right there. When Xiao Liu'er fell into the hospital, he encountered the most fearful thing in his life.
At this time, although night fell, because it was already the middle of the year, there was a full moon hanging in the sky, and the bright moonlight was like mercury. sprinkled on the earth, making the scenery more than a shadow.
And Xiao Liu'er took advantage of the moonlight to clearly see that a woman with a cloak and a bloody face was lying at his feet, looking straight at him.
The woman's gaze was straight, as if she was in a daze, obviously for Xiao Liu'er's appearance. was a little surprised, but this gaze fell on Xiao Liu'er's eyes, but it was indescribable fear.
A chill instantly rose from the soles of his feet and quickly climbed up to his back. The scalp suddenly went numb, and the next moment, Xiao Liu'er was frightened. It suddenly sounded in the night: "Ghost... Ghost... Hell! ”
The man in black, who led the way in front, stopped again. Zhao Chen, who was following behind, borrowed the torch in the guy's hand. Behind the guy is the entrance of a huge cave.
Just when the guy stopped, another man in black came out of the cave, holding a torch and a single knife in his hand, and the two looked at Zhao Chen condescendingly, talking in a low voice, presumably, asking about the weapon on Zhao Chen's body.
"What about Qin Yuyan?" A few zhang away from the entrance of the cave, Zhao Chen suddenly stopped, glanced at the huge cave behind the two of them, and then looked at the two of them coldly and asked loudly.
"It's in a cave!" Hearing Zhao Chen's words, a man in black who came out of the cave later hesitated slightly and replied to Zhao Chen.
"Then let Qin Yuyan come out and let me see!" At this time, Zhao Chen stood a few feet away from the entrance of the cave, looked up at the two people at the entrance of the cave, and said loudly.
The two people at the entrance of the cave, hearing Zhao Chen's words, suddenly fell into silence.
Among them, the black-clothed man who led the way turned his head and glanced at the cave behind him, and when he turned around, he said to Zhao Chen: "When you go to the cave later, you can see Little Lady Qin!" ”
"Fart!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he immediately scolded loudly: "Lao Tzu is at your mercy tonight, and he has never even hesitated, and now, you still don't let Lao Tzu take a look at Qin Yuyan!" ”
"A certain family has already said that they will see it in the cave later!" It was still the man in black who led the way before, and after hearing Zhao Chen's words, he hesitated slightly, and said to Zhao Chen patiently.
"Shall I see it now?" Zhao Chen's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, he was delaying time just now, who knows, the reaction of these two guys made him suddenly have a little more doubts.
"Then a certain family will not hesitate to kill Little Lady Qin!" Zhao Chen's words fell, and before the two black-clothed men at the entrance of the cave could answer, an elegant voice came out of the cave.
With this voice, a young man in a Confucian robe also walked out of the cave, looked at Zhao Chen condescendingly, and said, "So, Chang'anhou, you don't have a choice!" ”
Qin Yuyan is not here at all!
When Zhao Chen heard the young man's words, he immediately judged it, and the young man's words were enough to explain the problem.
From the time he received the first letter, there were no threatening words on all the letters, just a few simple words, but at this time, this bastard actually began to threaten him.
This can only show that Qin Yuyan is not in the cave at all, because they can't hand it over, and they are afraid that Zhao Chen will not want to come forward, so they will not hesitate to threaten him.
It's just that the reasoning is right, but if he is allowed to take risks, it is a little difficult, Qin Yuyan is now in the hands of these people, even if it is a little risk, he does not dare to try.
The young man's voice fell, up and down the mountain, and fell into silence for a while, Zhao Chen was weighing, and several people on the mountain looked at Zhao Chen intently, waiting for Zhao Chen to make a decision.
This silence lasted for a moment, and finally, Zhao Chen took a slight breath at the end, looked at the few people on the mountain, clenched his fists, and walked up the mountain.
When the young man in the Confucian robe saw that Zhao Chen had finally gone up the mountain, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, made way to the side, and motioned for Zhao Chen to enter the cave.
This is an old cave, and the entrance of the cave is covered with wild grass, and if you stand at a distance, it is difficult to find the entrance unless you are approaching the cave. Only then will such a huge cave be found in the wild grass.
"You planned it, right?" Passing by with the young man in the Confucian robe. Zhao Chen suddenly stopped, under the nervous gaze of the two men in black. Staring at the young man in the Confucian robe, he asked.
“… That's right! When the young man in the Confucian robe heard this, the expression on his face hesitated slightly, but he still met Zhao Chen's gaze and admitted very simply.
"In front of the palace that day, you were also there?" In front of the palace that day, Zhao Chen's attention was on the old man of the Lu family. There are so many other people who can't remember them all, but. As he was about to get into the carriage, he remembered a look.
Later, this gaze also appeared at the ceremony of the school palace, until now, the young man in front of him.
"On that day, a certain house was in the back!" The young man in the Confucian robe recalled the scene of that day, a little pain appeared in his eyes, and a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face, and then. looked at Zhao Chen and said, "It's a pity that a certain family is not qualified to sit there!" ”
"You should be glad you weren't qualified!" Zhao Chen listened to the young man's words, and couldn't help but sneer, and then. Without hesitation, he walked into the cave and asked the young man behind him without looking back: "What's it called?" ”
"The neighbors all call a certain Liu Dalang!" Liu Dalang was a few steps away from Zhao Chen, and also walked into the cave together. As he walked, he said: "The head of the family also calls a certain family... Chang'an Hou can also be called a certain Liu Dalang! ”
"It's boring!" At a distance of one zhang in the cave, a torch will appear. Zhao Chen was talking, but his eyes were looking at the cave.
It's dry in the cave. Because of the age, the walls of the cave have begun to fall into the ground, and a few people have gone straight to the cave.
After walking for a distance of more than 100 steps, the cave suddenly turned to the left, and when Zhao Chen turned over, his eyes were suddenly full of anger when he saw the scene inside.
The cave turned a corner, and inside was a spacious place, in which a shovel was used to dig out an earthen platform, on which incense, candles, and rows of spiritual positions were placed, but Qin Yuyan could not be seen.
"What about people?" When Zhao Chen saw such a scene, although he had guessed the result just now outside the cave, he really saw that Qin Yuyan was not there, and the anger in his heart still broke out all of a sudden.
“… Little Lady Qin is not here at all! Hearing this, Liu Dalang looked at the earthen platform 'offering table' behind Zhao Chen, the expression on his face was indifferent, and he said in a flat tone: "From the beginning, a certain family was not prepared to bring the little lady Qin here!" ”
"I'm asking you, what about people?" Zhao Chen was impatient to listen to Liu Dalang say this, he only cared about Qin Yuyan's whereabouts, and when he heard Liu Dalang's babbling, he directly interrupted Liu Dalang's words and asked word by word.
“… Wanting to know the whereabouts of Little Lady Qin, it's actually very simple! When Liu Dalang heard Zhao Chen's words, his eyes suddenly turned to Zhao Chen, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a light smile, and he looked at Zhao Chen and said, "Trouble Chang'an Hou, tie yourself to that stake!" ”
Hearing Liu Dalang say this, Zhao Chen realized that a wooden stake had already been planted on the wall opposite him.
The rope was also tied in advance, as long as he went over now and put himself in the rope, Liu Dalang and the others would tie him firmly to the stake as long as they pulled one end of the rope.
"Why don't you just give me a knife and let me kill myself?" Seeing all this prepared in advance by Liu Dalang and others, Zhao Chen was a little speechless for a while, looked at Liu Dalang, pursed his lips and sneered, and said with mockery.
Probably Liu Dalang himself felt a little excessive, after hearing Zhao Chen's words, the expression on his face was slightly embarrassed, but his eyes were still firmly looking at Zhao Chen and said: "Chang'an Hou is a disciple of immortals, and there are naturally many means to deal with ordinary people like a few people in a certain family, and Liu is helpless!" ”
A person who is determined to kill you, because he can't beat you, so he uses a coercive method to force you to commit suicide, but his mouth keeps saying that he has nothing to do, what kind of feeling is that?
“… It's nothing more than a tie-down, this one is very simple! Zhao Chen forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, looked directly at Liu Dalang and said, "However, before that, tell me Qin Yuyan's whereabouts!" ”
"Marquis of Chang'an..."Liu Dalang heard Zhao Chen's words, still the same sentence outside the cave before, looked at Zhao Chen and said.
It's just that as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhao Chen violently, and almost roared and yelled at Liu Dalang: "Fuck your fart, I'm asking you about Qin Yuyan's whereabouts!" ”
Because, it was in the innermost part of the cave, after Zhao Chen's angry roar came out, Zhao Chen's voice echoed in the entire cave, deafening, and several black-clothed people behind the frightened Liu Dalang all subconsciously took a step back.
"In town!" Liu Dalang's face turned pale, and after Zhao Chen's voice fell, he replied almost subconsciously: "She is very safe, a certain family has already entrusted others when she came, if nothing happens, tomorrow morning, Qin Xiaoniang will return to Qin's mansion!" ”
"Really?" When Zhao Chen heard this, his eyes were fixed on Liu Dalang, and he frowned and asked.
"Naturally, it's serious!" Liu Dalang looked at Zhao Chen and said conclusively: "This matter has nothing to do with Qin Xiaoniang, Liu is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong!" ”
“… That's good! Zhao Chen stared at Liu Dalang, and found that when this guy spoke, there was no hint of evasion in his eyes, and his heart suddenly relaxed, and when he looked at Liu Dalang, he couldn't help but chuckle and said. (To be continued.) )
