Chapter 383: There is nothing to be done
Not to mention what kind of thoughts Li Mingxiu had, but said that coming down from the mountain, Qin Baichuan saw Wufu and Tan Jiaotou and others standing with big eyes at a glance, Qin Baichuan didn't say anything, seeing that Wuyin's body was full of blood, Tan Jiaotou sighed quietly and secretly, it seemed that Li Mingxiu still couldn't escape the poison.
Under the instruction of Qin Baichuan, the two carriages slowly walked towards the main city, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the main city is lively, gongs and drums are noisy, the people wearing red wedding clothes say hello to each other, everywhere is filled with a peaceful atmosphere, Qin Baichuan originally liked to be lively, but today he did not have any intention of joining in the fun. The first three people of Tan Sect are like a thorn in his heart, he can't eat it, he can't pull it out, he can't pull it out, how disgusting it is.
Let Tan Jiaotou stop at the door of the bathhouse where Chu Ang brought him last time, Qin Baichuan got out of the car with Wufu and Wuyin, and happily washed away his bad luck, Qin Baichuan ordered them to look back at Jianglou first. The two of them couldn't rest assured of Qin Baichuan, but Qin Baichuan had a wordless contract with him, and he was currently a person with Tan Jiaotou, so after Qin Baichuan's persuasion, the two of them could also leave first in a sullen mood.
Qin Baichuan asked the bathhouse shopkeeper to clean a comfortable room, and lay on the soft big bed weakly, although he tossed all night, but where did Qin Baichuan get sleepy? Tan Jiaotou, Cheng Xingyun, and the invisible black hand behind the scenes were all inexplicably tormenting his heart and lungs. He was originally unrestrained and freewheeling, and now the wordless contract seems to put an invisible shackle on him.
In his heart, he imagined countless ways to deal with Cheng Xingyun, but in the end, he overturned them one by one. Not to mention that his strength is not good, even if he can mobilize the Qiushan army to surround the Qianjin Gambling House in one fell swoop, and even kill Cheng Xingyun as soon as possible, as long as he can't uproot the people behind the scenes, not only himself, but even Qu Xi, Sister Lan and others will be in great danger.
All the quick successes were in vain, Qin Baichuan tossed and turned on the bed for more than an hour, and then fell asleep deeply. I slept very unsteadily this night, and in my mind for a while, Qu Xi's head was cut off, and when I woke up, Qin Baichuan's head hurt so much that it was about to crack.
"Sir." The monkey didn't know when he appeared in the room, and when he saw Qin Baichuan sitting up and rubbing his head constantly, he brought it to Qin Baichuan with a cup of tea.
"Sent Qu Xi back?" Qin Baichuan tasted the tea and asked casually.
"Hmm." The monkey's mood was not high, and he nodded and said: "I first sent the master mother back to the Wanhua Xiaozhu, and then went to the study teahouse to inform the fucking shopkeeper, the people of the snake group have taken Hu Bo back, and arranged manpower inside and outside the Wanhua Xiaozhu, there should be no more accidents." ”
"How's Huber?" Qin Baichuan pondered for a moment, if Hu Bo had three long and two short this time, he didn't know if Qu Xi's stubborn temperament would break the net with the Qianjin Gambling House.
"Fortunately, the sword deviated only three inches from the heart, although Hu Bo is old, but after all, he is from a martial arts person, and now that he has taken medicine, he should be able to pick up a life." The monkey honestly said: "However, even if this kind of injury is healed, Hu Bo is afraid that he will not be able to use force in the future." ”
"It's nice to be able to get a life back." Qin Baichuan was still quite satisfied with this result, but he was still worried that Qu Xi would make drastic moves, and asked: "After Qu Xi goes back, have you ever said how to deal with this matter?" ”
When she learned that Hu Bo was not worried about her life, the mistress looked much better. Someone in the snake group proposed to go to the Qianjin Gambling House to find Cheng Xingyun to settle accounts, but in the end, they were all suppressed by the main mother. The monkey said, "The mistress called me to the room alone and asked why you didn't go back to Wanhua Xiaozhu with her, and I lied casually...... Well, the housewife finally said, when you are done, go back to Wanhua Xiaozhu. She agrees with you and doesn't bother with it. ”
"It's a good thing, this bastard woman finally listened." Qin Baichuan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir......" said the monkey tentatively, "I don't think after this incident, the mistress doesn't seem to be as ...... as before."
"What was it like before? What's going on now? Qin Baichuan was puzzled.
"Uh...... This ......" The monkey scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "In the past, when I mentioned Mr., the mistress would be called a 'bastard', but today I heard it really, and the mistress was called ...... My husband is a father-in-law. ”
"Really?" Qin Baichuan was suddenly overjoyed, I don't know when it was his short-term goal to let Qu Xi sincerely call himself a good man, and now he actually heard such a thing from the monkey's mouth, how could he not be overjoyed? But...... This joy didn't last long, and Qin Baichuan looked worried: "It's a pity, it's late." ”
"Why?" The monkey was also happy for Mr., but the smile on his face didn't last long, and the monkey didn't understand.
"It's very simple, the more I care about Quxi, the more confident Cheng Xingyun will be to control me." Qin Baichuan felt a little pain in his heart, and said, "No matter what Qu Xi thinks of me now, what I can do is to alienate her, the farther away she is from me, the safer she will be." At the very least, one day I will be killed, and she will not be implicated because she is my wife. ”
"Sir...... Monkeys are useless. As soon as he said this, the monkey's heart was also churning like a flame, his knees were weak, and the monkey knelt on the ground in shame.
"me out." Qin Baichuan's face sank: "I'll say it one last time, this time Cheng Xingyun is coming at me, and it has nothing to do with you, if you have to take the responsibility on yourself, then let me go, how far and how far, I will be annoyed when I see you!" ”
"Sir......" the monkey looked ashamed.
"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, haven't we been played to death yet?" Qin Baichuan waved his hand, took out one of the silver tickets on his body and handed it to the monkey: "Go and settle the accounts, buy another piece of clothing for Lao Tzu, and then prepare the carriage." ”
"Yes." The monkey took the silver ticket with both hands, and about the time of a cup of tea, went and returned.
It was already afternoon when Qin Baichuan came out of the bathhouse with a new look, and the monkey helped him into the carriage, while Tan Jiao and the others were always behind the carriage like followers. When they got out of the main city, Qin Baichuan deliberately teased them, telling the monkey to speed up, and the carriage was flying on the road, but no matter how fast the carriage ran, the three of them were always about five meters away from the rear of the car, and they couldn't get rid of it at all.
"Guys, come up." Encountering such a powerful master, Qin Baichuan could only be powerless in his heart, let the monkey slow down, he pushed the car door and shouted at Tan Jiaotou and the others.
"Yes." Tan Jiaotou promised a few people, Qin Baichuan only saw a flash of figures in front of him, and the three people fell into the carriage like cotton wool, one in front and two behind, perhaps because of the height of the carriage, all three of them knelt on one knee, and pressed their right hands into fists on the board.
"I hate to chop you up and feed the dogs, but I don't have that ability right now." Qin Baichuan said straight to the point: "I have thought about it carefully, there is no way to get out of the current predicament, the only thing I can do now is to cooperate with you." ”
"If the gentleman has an order, let it be commanded." The carriage was jolting, but the three of them were still kneeling steadily.
"Of course, there are orders, but until then, I hope we can get along amicably for the time being." Qin Baichuan pointed to the other two: "What are your names?" ”
"Sir, these two are like monkeys, from the Palace of Longevity." Tan Jiaotou replied: "The people of the Longevity Palace have no name or surname, so they only have a code name. Tan Jiaotou pointed to the big nose on the left hand side and said, "He was born with a keen sense of smell, and he used to play the role of tracking, nicknamed Big Dog." ”
Tan Jiaotou pointed to the other triangular eye and said: "When he was a child, his head was hit, which caused his eyeballs to be crooked, but because of the blessing of misfortune, he can see farther than ordinary people at night, so he is known as the night eye, and he can see in the water." ”
"Big dog, night eye, yes, they are all people with skills." Qin Baichuan nodded approvingly, and persuaded himself in his heart before he spoke, saying: "There is a wrongdoer, there is a debtor, it is your master who puts Qin in such a situation, logically speaking, I should not have any anger towards you." ”
Tan Jiaotou, Big Dog, and Yeyan didn't know what Qin Baichuan was going to say, so they all bowed their heads.
"I don't know what benefits your master has given you to make you willing to die? Can you say it so that I can also gain a long insight? Qin Baichuan pretended to be inadvertent.
"Sir, if we can answer, we know everything, but there are some things we dare not say or can't say, please don't be embarrassed sir." Tan Jiaotou shook his head.
"Okay, if you can't say that, then I won't ask." These three people are all highly alert, and in Qin Baichuan's understanding, they are equivalent to spies in this era, and it is difficult to get words out of their mouths. However, the momentary frustration could not wear away Qin Baichuan's desire to subdue them, after all, if he wanted to grasp all the circumstances of the other party, these three people were his only entry point.
Qin Baichuan changed the topic: "Cheng Gongzi told me on the occasion of parting that he would hand over some of the resources in his hand to me one after another, and even gave me the task of earning 200,000 taels of silver a year, I want to know, what are these resources?" ”
"Sir, we are all acting on orders, we really don't know how Cheng Gongzi arranges it." Tan Jiaotou shook his head again: "But since Cheng Gongzi said it, I believe it won't be long before Mr. will be able to find out." ”
"Yes, I don't know, it seems that I might as well treat you as dumb people in the future." Qin Baichuan was somewhat annoyed.
"Sir, it's not that we deliberately conceal it, it's true that we don't know about it." Sect Leader Tan was also a little helpless, and after thinking about it, he said: "The only thing I know is that the Lord attaches great importance to Mr., and in addition to the three of us, he will send a few people to protect Mr. Safety." ”
"Protection is fake, once you find out that the situation is wrong, kill me is the real thing, right?" Qin Baichuan sneered, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I just said that there is a wrongdoer, and there is a debtor, and I can't blame you." You don't know what Qin is like, the enemy hates me so much that the roots of his teeth itch, my friends are like my own siblings to me, I can live for Qin and die for Qin, of course, I do the same for my friends. ”
"Yesterday I was taught." Tan Jiaotou nodded, the monkey and the others had completely different feelings for Qin Baichuan and their feelings for the Lord, one was a friend of life and death between friends, and the other was absolute obedience based on identity and status.
"Qin said that there is no other meaning for this, from now on, Qin will treat you as brothers. As for you, whether you will help Qin in the future or stab Qin in the back depends on your conscience. Qin Baichuan patted his chest and said, "When you see my friend in the future, you will say that you are a friend of the monkey, come to Jiangling to join me, don't be seen by anyone...... Is it all clear? ”
"Understood!" The three of them nodded in unison.
I don't know why, it's said that the mobile reading base was released first, and today's chapter update is late.
