Chapter 19: Prepare with both hands

The chaos at the mouth of the Black Fortress began to end, and the captains of several damaged ships came forward, including some influential figures on various merchant ships and cargo ships, and the river was quickly cleared, and those merchant ships and cargo ships that were not hit continued to hurry.

All the damaged ships are concentrated on the right side of the river, and the seriously damaged ships need to be towed ashore to repair, and the issue of responsibility and compensation is resolved through negotiation between the leaders of all parties and the ship bosses who are in charge of the overall situation.

Liu Dazhai, the big man of Jiuqu Peak, was told that he was blocked by him, and the three boats collided in succession, and the Ye Gongzi who was planted into the river was Ye Xiaotian, the chief of Woniuling, who had been in the limelight recently, and couldn't help but be terrified, and hurriedly rushed to make amends to Ye Xiaotian in person, and promised that he would be responsible for all the losses.

This Jiuqu Peak big man Liu Mansion is a head person who belongs to the Shiqian Tong family, and he has long been familiar with Ye Xiaotian's prestige. Now that he has met someone bigger than him, where can he still stand up. Ye Xiaotian didn't have much energy to deal with him at this time, so he dealt with it casually for a while, and then sent him away.

Seeing Ye Xiaotian's ruddy face, as if he had just drunk a jar of old wine, the guards felt that something was wrong, and when they tried his forehead, it was hot, and they immediately panicked: "Not good!" The adult fell into the water, suffered from the wind chill, and the high fever did not go away at the moment! ”

Hong Baichuan had been hovering in the cabin, looking at Ye Xiaotian's behavior with cold eyes, but he couldn't see anything wrong for a while. The appearance is the same, Hong Baichuan quietly checked the clothes and accessories he had changed, and they were the same as before Ye Xiaotian's shipwreck, so he really couldn't see any clues.

However, Ye Xiaoan and Ye Xiaotian are twin brothers, and there is no difference in appearance, and it is normal, as for the robe, if this shipwreck is really Yang Yinglong's doing. Even such a big thing can be operated so perfectly, it is not unusual to grasp Ye Xiaotian's clothes in advance and make several sets of identical clothes, so Hong Baichuan has always been suspicious.

At this time, as soon as he heard that Ye Xiaotian had a high fever that did not go away, Hong Baichuan immediately flashed in front of him, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he didn't wait to touch his forehead. knew that he really had a high fever that would not go away, and that hand was only close to his cheek, and he could feel the hot feeling.

Hong Baichuan hurriedly said: "The virtuous nephew has suffered from the wind and cold, which is very serious!" I see that there is a mountain village on the mountainside, so it is better to go to the village to recuperate, and then find a Langzhong to diagnose and treat. ”

Ye Xiaotian was listless and drowsy at this time, his eyes were closed, and he said weakly: "We...... Let's go ashore. Boat. I'm afraid that it won't be repaired for a while, and I need to hire it again...... Hire two big boats. ”

Hong Baichuan said: "You don't need to worry about these things, the old man will arrange them!" ”

Hong Baichuan beckoned, and two guards stepped forward, picked up Ye Xiaotian, and clothed him with a big coat. Hong Baichuan glanced at Ye Xiaotian again, and said tentatively: "Virtuous nephew, what you and I are discussing on the road." Don't delay too long, you see...... Shall I send someone back to arrange it first? ”

Hong Baichuan was suspicious in his heart. At this time, I finally couldn't help but say something tentative. What did they discuss on the way? There is only one thing, that is, Yang Yinglong coerced Ye Xiao'an, tried to transfer flowers and trees, and impersonated Ye Xiaotian. The two discussed all the way, but they didn't come up with a safe way to rescue Ye Xiaoan.

At this time, Hong Baichuan deliberately raised this matter vaguely, which was to test this Ye Xiaotian. As long as this Ye Xiaotian is real. must understand what he means by "what is discussed on the road", as long as this Ye Xiaotian says a few words, he can dispel his doubts.

Ye Xiaotian was being supported by his personal guards, and walked weakly outside the inclined cabin when he heard this. Suddenly stopped, and glanced at Hong Baichuan deeply: "What are you discussing on the road?" Uncle Hong, are you in a hurry to work hard in these three or two days? ”

Hong Baichuan stared at Ye Xiaotian's expression and said, "Seeing that the New Year is coming, how can you not be in a hurry?" If you miss the time, this batch of New Year's goods will be smashed in your hands, and you still have to arrange it early, so that you can sell it for the festival and make huge profits! ”

Ye Xiaotian looked at Hong Baichuan, his expression was a little strange, the change in his eyes was unpredictable, it seemed that he was thinking about something, after a while, Ye Xiaotian suddenly smiled and said: "The matter of buying and selling, it is indeed not appropriate to delay, uncle may as well make someone go back to handle it first, if you don't worry, it is the same if uncle goes back first, we will go separately, and the car and ship will be better arranged." ”

After Ye Xiaotian finished speaking, he nodded politely to Hong Baichuan, and walked out with the support of the guards, Hong Baichuan stood stunned, his hands and feet were cold, and his heart was cold: "Fake!" This Ye Xiaotian is fake! He is Ye Xiaoan! How so? What a remarkable arrangement would it take to make a successful substitution in such an uncontrollable situation? ”

The person, right under his nose, has been replaced!

What should he do? What could he do?

Debunking Ye Xiaoan's true identity? Can he?

Even if Hong Baichuan said the content of his secret discussion with Ye Xiaotian, what basis did he have? Who would believe Ye Xiaotian's guards? If you really believe it, will Woniuling still exist? I'm afraid that at that time, the only one who was willing to stay and avenge Ye Xiaotian was Hua Yunfei alone, right?

Sudden killing? If Ye Xiaotian had fallen into the hands of Yang Yinglong, and he suddenly killed Ye Xiao'an, the only thing he could get was the disappearance of Woniu Ridge and the endless pursuit of him by Ye Xiaotian's die-hard subordinates, because he couldn't prove anything.

"What should I do?"

Hong Baichuan, who has always been determined like iron and does not change color when Mount Tai collapses in front of him, has finally changed color.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Ye Xiaotian was supported by two guards, and stepped off the pedal with a vague step, and immediately several guards who were already waiting on the shore got a pair of sliding rods and helped him up with all hands and feet. The bamboo seat was already covered with a thick layer of mattresses, and he was covered with a blanket, and then he walked towards the mountain village surrounded by everyone.

Ye Xiaotian sighed weakly, leaned crookedly on the sliding rod, closed his eyes, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart. That's right, he is not Ye Xiaotian, but Ye Xiaoan. In other words, he used to be Ye Xiaoan, and now he is Ye Xiaotian.

He has rehearsed similar scenes countless times, and through various ways, he has turned into his brother Ye Xiaotian, and every time someone is responsible for testing and questioning him, and then he will deal with and solve it. Which time a similar scene. It's all as realistic as it is today.

However, he vaguely felt in his heart that this time it should not be a drill, but a real one. The reason is not because of Hong Baichuan's appearance, he is not familiar with Hong Baichuan, he was in the previous drill. has already seen people who belong to Woniuling and are more familiar to him, those people can become Yang Yinglong's people, and of course Hong Baichuan can also.

Therefore, he didn't believe that this time it was true after seeing Hong Baichuan, who he had met a few times, it was completely intuitive. If this time it is true, then it means that his younger brother Ye Xiaotian has fallen into the hands of Yang Yinglong, and even died in the hands of Yang Yinglong.

Is Xiao Er dead?

Ye Xiaoan's nose was sore, and tears almost fell, but he closed his eyes tightly. The tears only moistened his eyelids and didn't come out. He has experienced similar drills countless times, and in the face of a possible day, his mentality has been constantly adjusted countless times.

Ever since he fell into the hands of Yang Yinglong, he knew that he had been calculated from the beginning. Yan Shiwei, who has always felt that he is closer than his own brother and can understand him, has really been calculating him from the beginning, from that moment on. He had always fantasized that his younger brother, who was smarter than him, would see through the conspiracy and rescue him.

That is until he meets the masked man who claims to be a member of the court in the trapped ashram. His hope was even greater. However, the scene of being rescued by Xiao Er that he dreamed countless times in his dreams never appeared, but the "substitution" drills again and again gradually made him have an illusion: Will it be ...... The masked man he met at the beginning was also sent by Yang Yinglong's side to test his reaction?

However, Yan Shiwei is also good. Whether it was Mr. Tian, who had lost his legs, he never mentioned this matter, although he was far less smart than his brother, he was not stupid enough to take the initiative to ask about it, so this little secret has been buried in his heart.

He also thought about what if. In the drills again and again, especially in the last few times, the person in charge of doubting him, tempting and questioning him was the real Woniuling man, and he began to despair, he felt that in the face of such a conspiracy, I am afraid that his younger brother, who has always been smart, will not be able to escape at all.

I still remember that in a certain substitution exercise, he appeared in front of him, and the person who was responsible for questioning his identity and testing him was actually Yu Puman, and Yu Puman of Woniuling was Yu Puman. That time, he almost thought it was true, and almost took the initiative to confess his true identity to the other party.

Fortunately, he was a little careful, cowardice is sometimes not a bad thing, it will make him more careful, when he struggled again and again, and finally mustered up the courage to tell the truth when the third master escorted him back to Woniuling, he was stunned to find that the drill was over.

Ye Xiaotian was secretly shocked into a cold sweat, he knew that the threat of "once he refused to cooperate, he would kill his wife and son" was not just intimidation, even Yu Sanye was bought by Yang Yinglong, what was the difficulty in killing his family?

In addition to Yu Sanye, who else has been bought by Yang Yinglong? He didn't know, he didn't dare to trust anyone anymore. He only knew Ye Xiaotian's subordinates and was not familiar with them, in his opinion, if Yu Puman could betray, then anyone else could betray.

At this time, he had to think about what he would do if Yang Yinglong's plan was really successful and Xiao Er was really replaced and killed. At this time, Tian Binfei's interests and disadvantages that he had analyzed involuntarily came to his mind.

If their little second child really falls into the trap and is replaced, he will definitely die, what should he do at that time? Once he reveals his true identity, is he sure that the Woniuling forces will still be close to him?

The Gu Sect forces will definitely leave, he has also heard of Xiao Er being "kidnapped" back to the mountains by the Gu Sect Elders, once Xiao Er is dead, those elders who are gradually losing their former glory, only retaining the power of the church, and losing the power to kill the mountain tribes have no doubt, they will immediately withdraw their subordinates to the deep mountains.

Once they leave, most of Ye Xiaotian's power foundation will be dispersed, not to mention that Yu Sanye has already taken refuge in Yang Yinglong, and Yu Jiahai and Yu Siye, who have not come forward, are probably ......, so what is left in Woniuling? What else is left?

He suddenly found that in fact, he had no choice at all, this was a dead end, whether he wanted it or not, as long as his brother died, his only choice was to impersonate, no matter what the purpose, only in this way could he maintain the integrity of Woniuling.

What he had always dreamed of was respect, approval and power from others, and he wanted to prove that he was no worse than their junior, but now that he was given the opportunity, his heart was at a loss, and he suddenly remembered the leisurely years when he didn't have to worry about anything.

However, that time is gone, and he can no longer rely on their little two to help him solve his troubles, this time, everything has to rely on himself. For the sake of himself, for the sake of his family, and for the sake of revenge, he must hold up.

"But can I do it?" Ye Xiaoan asked himself, he couldn't help but panic for a while, his hand tightly grasped the cold handrail of the skating rod: "I am a puppet for a while, but I am not necessarily a puppet for a lifetime, if Gou Jian does not have later success, it is better than me!" ”

Ye Xiaoan cheered himself up, looked at the stilted building that was getting closer and closer, and thought of the terrible masked man waiting for him there, and secretly gritted his teeth......
