Chapter 348: Into the Snake's Den

Qin Baichuan Rao thought he was full of scheming, but he still couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Quxi's gourd. followed Zhao Yanan all the way upstairs, and waited until Zhao Yanan twisted a lamp holder on the second floor and opened a door on the wall, Qin Baichuan saw clearly that there was another mystery in this study teahouse.

Entering the secret room behind the wall, Qin Baichuan looked up, this secret room is not very big, more than thirty square meters, there is a coffee table on the opposite door, there are bookshelves on both sides, the bookshelves are cleaned spotlessly, there are also some flower pots on both sides, and the incense burner is burning with sandalwood, giving people a sense of tranquility.

When Qin Baichuan came in, Qu Xi was sitting on the main seat behind the coffee table, Luo Yuan was standing next to him, seeing Qin Baichuan's face full of astonishment, Luo Yuan waved his hand: "Minister Qin, what are you doing standing there?" Come and sit. Luo Yuan glanced at Qin Baichuan, obviously because Qu Xi was present, she couldn't say more.

"A small teahouse has no holes, I really don't know how many things you have to hide from me." Qin Baichuan was a little stunned in his heart, walked to the coffee table, and sat down.

"This is the place my father left behind, and it belongs to me completely." Qu Xi didn't look at Qin Baichuan, and said softly: "Don't say it's you, the people in the entire Qu Mansion who know about this property are only five fingers." Actually, there is nothing special here, after my father passed away, this is my study, and it is also the only pure land when I miss my father. ”

"Okay, anyway, our master Qu Da Zhuang has his own ideas in his heart to do things, as a small minister, he knows what he should know, and he should not know or ask less." Qin Baichuan had a bit of a yin and yang weird way.

"Minister Qin, the owner of the big village does things in his own way, and the starting point is also for the splendid villa, you speak politely." Luo Yuan glanced at Qin Baichuan, she heard Qu Xi say about Qin Baichuan's return to Splendid Villa, although she didn't know how bumpy the specific process was, but she also knew that Qin Baichuan must have made great efforts. Now that the relationship between the two is in the recovery period, Luo Yuan doesn't want to see the scene of the two falling apart again because of Qin Baichuan's unobstructed mouth.

"You have paid a lot in Anyang, I know all this." Qu Xi pondered for a moment, anyway, there were only three of them here, and she didn't have so many scruples when she spoke: "Whether it is as the owner of the villa or as your nominal lady, I should be grateful for everything you have done." ”

Qu Xi nodded slightly to Qin Baichuan to express his gratitude, and then said: "After returning to Jiangling from Anyang, there have been some misunderstandings between you and me, as well as Splendid Villa, and I have tried to clarify with you several times, but I have never been able to achieve what I wanted. Perhaps, this is providence. ”

"Forget it, the past is over." How do you feel that there is something wrong with the baby wife's tone today, Qin Baichuan sighed, and didn't care about Luo Yuan's feelings, and said seriously: "Quxi, can we not quarrel in the future?" ”

Qu Xi glanced at Qin Baichuan with complicated eyes, and said coldly: "What strange words did you say?" We were originally a contract marriage, and the scene between you and me was originally for the development of the villa. Now, the goal has basically been achieved, and Fairview Villa will also gain a firm foothold in Gangneung in the future, why should we quarrel? ”

"What do you mean?" The more Qin Baichuan listened, the more frightened he became, Qu Xi's attitude was indifferent from beginning to end, with some peace in the indifference, and the words seemed to have a lot closer to Qin Baichuan, but in fact, Qin Baichuan really felt Qu Xi's estrangement from the bottom of his heart: "Acting? What am I playing with you? ”

"In order to make the development of events more real, I didn't tell you in advance, it was my fault for speaking of it." Qu Xi did not directly answer Qin Baichuan's doubts, but apologized for the first time, the more she was like this, the more Qin Baichuan felt uneasy, only to hear Qu Xi say again: "I originally thought that Minister Qin was extremely smart and would definitely be able to see some flaws, but now it doesn't seem to be the case." Forget it, although you didn't understand my intentions in time, you helped me a lot by mistake. ”

Qu Xi was halfway through his words, and Qin Baichuan even slapped the table and cursed: "Qu Xi, what do you want to say to yourself?" What kind of drama are you playing, what have I helped you with, you can make it clearer! ”

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Before Qu Xi could speak, there was a knock on the door of the secret room, Luo Yuan pulled the rope, and after the door opened, the fucking shopkeeper walked in with a tea tray, and said with a smile: "Zhuang Master, Manager Luo, Minister Qin, come, taste it, this is the jasmine I personally dried this autumn." ”

"It's fragrant." Qu Xi sniffed lightly, his cold face softened slightly, and said to the fucking shopkeeper: "How is the matter handled?" ”

"Owner, don't worry." The fucking shopkeeper glanced at Qin Baichuan, and after Qu Xi nodded slightly, the fucking shopkeeper smiled and said: "This time the stakes are very high, our snake group doesn't dare to slack off, and the dumb king snake will personally lead people to do things, and I don't think there will be any tails left." ”

"What did you say?" The voice of the fucking shopkeeper was not loud, but when he heard Qin Baichuan, it was like a thunderbolt, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he rushed to the side of the fucking shopkeeper with a hideous face, and grabbed his neck: "What did you just say, tell me again?" ”

Qin Baichuan is like a tiger who chooses people and devours them, but the fucking shopkeeper doesn't change his face, letting Qin Baichuan grab his collar, with the kind smile of a businessman on his face, and said with a smile: "Minister Qin, I said when I was at the door, we are all doing things for the owner, why be so angry?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense with me!" Qin Baichuan's steel teeth were almost crushed, and the spit spat splashed on the face of the fucking shopkeeper: "You said the snake group? How did you come to be a member of the Serpent Group? ”

"Let him go!" Before the fucking shopkeeper could speak, Qu Xi's undoubted voice came coldly: "This is my study, yes, but on the rivers and lakes, this is still a snake nest where everyone is in danger!" Since it's a snake den, what's so strange about the snake group appearing here? ”

Rao is Qin Baichuan has repeatedly felt that Qu Xi has something he doesn't know to hide from him, but he really, really didn't expect that this would be the headquarters of the snake group! Slowly letting go of his arm, Qin Baichuan's face turned blue: "So, the miraculous snake group that was rumored to be in Dasong is actually the property of Splendid Villa?" ”

"If Shang Jia wants to survive in Dasong, he must eat both black and white, what do you think is the surprise?" Qu Xi waved his hand at the fucking shopkeeper, who smiled, exited and closed the door.

"I almost died at the hands of the Serpents, don't you think I'm surprised?" Qin Baichuan finally couldn't hold it back, slapped it on the table, and said angrily: "Outside the Wanhua Xiaozhu, the fourth master Qu took the snake group killer, if it weren't for the monkey and others to arrive, Lao Tzu would have died once; Anyang Qunfangtang, the killer of the snake group suddenly attacked, if it weren't for the friends of the Qiushan Army and the fisherman's family, Lao Tzu would have died again! A few days ago, there were some people in black in the Hundred Flowers Workshop, this time they didn't want my life, but they wanted to frame the blame, if they succeeded, Lao Tzu would die again! Three times, three times, I almost died at the hands of my wife, you say, you say, I shouldn't be surprised! ”

"You want to quarrel with me again?" Qu Xi's lips moved, and he wanted to explain a few words, but when the words came to his mouth, the taste changed.

"Quarrel? My God, Master Qu, don't scare me. Qin Baichuan patted his chest and said, "You are the owner of the big village, how dare I quarrel with you?" You are still the lady I hold in my hands for fear of falling, and I am afraid of melting in my mouth, how dare I quarrel with you? I just think it's ridiculous, it's so ridiculous! I'm self-righteous, I always think I can see through everyone's conspiracy, but I was played with by my wife, and I almost died several times! Qu Xi, I also want to ask you, if I suddenly die one day, will you feel distressed? ”

This sentence was originally asked by Qu Xi that night, and now he returned it to Qu Xi as it was, with an indescribable pain in his heart, but a kind of perverted pleasure. Qu Xi's cold face fluctuated slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Whether you believe it or not, there are some things I can't control." ”

"Believe, how can I not believe it!" Qin Baichuan sneered: "Now I can almost believe from the bottom of my heart that in your eyes there is only Splendid Villa, and you can sacrifice everything for Splendid Villa!" ”

"Indeed." A cloud of anger surged in Qu Xi's heart, she just wanted to explain everything clearly when she called Qin Baichuan over today, but with Qin Baichuan's attitude, she really didn't need to continue to explain, it was obviously against her heart, but she still nodded.

"You-" Qin Baichuan was angry and angry, as long as Qu Xi was a little soft, he felt that even if he had a thousand kinds of anger, he would be suppressed, but he didn't expect this bastard woman to nod and admit it! You can sacrifice everything for the sake of Splendid Villa, including all this, of course, including your own fake appearance!

"Baichuan, calm down." Seeing that the two people who had just eased some of their relationship once again showed signs of rupture, Luo Yuan hurriedly grabbed Qin Baichuan's sleeve and explained: "Things are not what you think, you listen to me - the snake group was established when the old owner Qu was alive, although our old owner is a businessman, but he is the most righteous, there are not a few people in the rivers and lakes who have received his favor, and the old owner Qu selected twelve people from these people and established the snake group." ”

"Later, the snake group grew and even spread all over various industries, and then our Qu Da Zhuang's owner can kill people as he wants?" Qin Baichuan clenched his fists, he had heard a lot about the snake group, and there was sarcasm in his words.

"Shut up and listen to me!" Luo Yuan angrily scolded Qin Baichuan and continued: "The original intention of the old owner Qu to set up the snake group was not to spy on the news, let alone kill people, but just to protect himself! Please also think about it, if Shangjia does not have his own power, who can rely on it? Hill Army, or Coastal Army? ”

Qin Baichuan didn't speak, and Luo Yuan continued: "On the other hand, at that time, the old owner wanted to pass on the position to Quxi, and the Qu family already coveted the position of the owner, and the snake group was the last line of defense left by the old owner to Quxi!" The establishment of the snake group is of course a secret act, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the snake group is finally targeted after doing a few things. At that time, the owner of the old village was terminally ill, but his brain was not confused, and when the snake group was facing life and death, he gathered a group of friends of life and death, and ordered them to go to Dasong to commit crimes all over the country, and they were all under the guise of the snake group! ”

"The old owner of the village used this method of transferring flowers and trees and encircling Wei to save Zhao, and successfully diverted the attention of the Jiangling Mansion and the bloody guards, just like that, the matter of the snake group was in a uproar for a while, and even the court began to pay attention to this matter, but the old owner's friends of life and death did not flinch, but wantonly opened branches across the country, recruited killers, and when things got out of control, the court intervened, these people either died in battle, or committed suicide, none of them lived!!" Speaking of these past events, Luo Yuan seemed to feel the tragic deeds of those who followed the old owner back then, and his voice was desolate.

"What do you mean......" After listening to the cause and effect, Qin Baichuan vaguely captured the key to the matter.

"That's what you think, the real snake group is firmly in the hands of Qu Xi, there are only twelve people for decades, and the killers who are going around in the name of the snake group on the rivers and lakes are originally the tricks left by the old owner! This is also the reason why the rumors in the rivers and lakes about the mystery of the snake group are mysterious, because no matter which one is caught, the government will find out in the end that it is simply fake! Luo Kite explained clearly and asked, "Now you understand, right?" Whether it is the snake group invited by Master Qu Si, or the killers of the snake group in Qunfangtang, those are not snake groups, but a group of impostors! ”

"I ...... Understood......" Qin Baichuan, who had calmed down his anger, was a little embarrassed, Luo Yuan also gave him a white look angrily, Qin Baichuan touched his head, and grinned bitterly at Qu Xi: "Big Boss...... I...... I'm wrong to blame you again. ”

"You're right. Those killers impostored, but the cause was also my father. Qu Xi's indifferent face did not have any fluctuations: "Besides, among those rabble in the Hundred Flowers Workshop, there are people from the snake group. True, snake group. ”

"What do you say?" Qin Baichuan felt like he was on a roller coaster today, going up and down for a while.
