Chapter Eighty-Six: Waiting for an Opportunity
"Let's go." Qin Yemian turned around and went to the next door.
In the next room, Xiaofeng had woken up and was leaning on the head of the bed silently sad.
Lan Xin said that if it weren't for the gauze around his neck, he might have died of blood loss.
But he knew that the gauze was bandaged by Ah Li, and before he fainted, he vaguely saw him take off the gauze on his head.
"Xiaofeng, do you think about what is so special about that assassin?" Dai Meng followed the man into the house and asked again. turned a blind eye to his son's pale face at the moment.
In fact, after Xiaofeng woke up, he had been forced to ask by his father many times.
He said that it was an old man, but his father still asked again and again. If it weren't for the fear of the other man present, he would definitely ignore him.
In fact, Xiao Feng didn't know, the reason why Dai Meng took the trouble to ask was because the soldiers at the city gate said that there was no one Xiao Feng said among the people who went out of the city in the morning. That's why he focused on the city, if Ah Li Gongzi was really taken out of the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I didn't see his face clearly, but his voice was old, and it felt like an old man." Xiaofeng forced himself to recall the situation again.
"What about the body?" Ah Jing asked.
Body shape? In fact, Xiao Feng was frightened at the time, and did not dare to look at it except for the Assassin when he first climbed up from the cave.
"Very thin, not tall." He tried to recall the scene, "By the way, when he suddenly ran over and pointed his knife at us, he was very fast. ”
I remember that he was about to look up at him, and as soon as his eyes glanced over, the person came to his side, and he was almost scared to death.
"So, it's possible that this person is young, but his voice sounds older." Ah Jing felt that this person should not be an old man, otherwise the speed would not be so fast.
"Yes, it's possible." When Xiaofeng heard her say this, her heart suddenly jumped wildly.
"Go and call the soldiers who are defending the city." Qin Yemian glanced at the young man's panicked and annoyed look, and immediately gave an order.
"Yes." Dai Meng ran away quickly, but his steps staggered a little.
Soon, a cup of tea, the soldiers defending the city came.
"Say it again about the physical characteristics of the people who went out of town in the morning." The man sat in his chair and looked coldly at the kneeling man on the ground.
The face was as ugly as it was, and it scared the soldier's soul out of his body, and at the same time, he was scared into a cold sweat.
He had asked the soldier this question before, but he was misled by his son's words at the time, and he didn't ask in detail.
"If you want to go back to your lordship, when the city gate was opened this morning, many people left the city. Four of them went out of town in pairs. One is a husband and wife, about 50 years old. There is also a mother and daughter, the mother is in her forties and the daughter is in her teens. The third pair is a pair of brothers, the elder brother is thin in his twenties, and the younger brother is seriously ill and in his teens. The fourth pair is a brother and sister, about the same age as the previous pair. ”
"There is a pair, it feels a little strange." The man frowned.
"It's all normal, it's the younger brother of the two brothers, it seems to be a little different."
"What to say."
"My brother is thin and small, and he is not good-looking. But although his younger brother's face was pale, he was very handsome. I remember sneaking a few glances at him at the time.
"My brother is asleep?"
"Yes, he was carried out of town by his brother, and he said he was sick." The soldier was startled by the man's suddenly raised voice.
"My brother has a head wound?"
"It looks like there's a wound on the forehead."
"Where did they go?" Qin Yemian immediately got up and walked out.
"Chengcheng." Under Dai Meng's gaze, the soldier immediately got up and led the way.
Everyone also stood up one after another, including Ah Jing and Lan Xin.

Following
The fence follows the flowers wherever they go and eats, which is even more comfortable than the gods.
If it weren't for the little girl's preoccupied appearance, she would have wanted to be like this for the rest of her life.
After all, not doing anything, and being able to eat and drink everywhere is her most dreamed of life.
However, the mouth of eating people is soft, and since she agreed, she must not break her word, this is her principle of life.
So she spent the morning slowly inquiring about the affairs of Duoduo's family.
In fact, Duoduo's grandfather was originally the lord of this city, named Qian Sen. He was a generous man and a philanthropic all his life, so the people of the city respected him very much.
He has an only daughter under his knees, Qian Auntie. When she was born, the people of the city rejoiced and took the initiative to change the name of "Hengcheng" to "Chengcheng" to express their blessings to the old city lord's beloved daughter.
Qian Auntie lived up to expectations, she was sensible and well-behaved since she was a child, and she was even more knowledgeable when she grew up. At the same time, she also inherited the generosity of her ancestors, so the people of the city did not rule out a woman to inherit the position of lord of the city in the future.
In the year of Qian Cheng and Lu, Li Hai entered the door. A year after marriage, the two gave birth to their daughter Qian Duoduo. Because he is a son-in-law, Duoduo's surname is Qian instead of Li.
Since Duoduo was born, the people of the city have loved the house and the Wu. Especially after the death of the old city lord last year and the death of Qian Auntie this year, everyone felt even more sorry for her.
This is why as long as there is a little girl, there will be many people shushing and asking for warmth.
However, Fence also heard about Lehi from the mouths of many people.
It is said that this person is very business-minded, and in just one year, the construction of the city is more than a star and a half better than the original.
And he is very kind, no matter who has something to ask for, he will spare no effort to help. So after Qian Cheng's death, many people wanted to recommend him as the city lord, but of course he refused one by one.
At the same time, she also heard that after that, some people even secretly gave their daughters to him as concubines, but Li Hai politely declined.
He said that he didn't want to be the lord of the city, but only wanted to benefit the people of the city. I don't want to let down my beloved wife, and I want to spend my days guarding her mourning hall to express my grief, so the people of the city respect him even more.
In fact, in Nanchu, on the question of the selection of the city lord, Liluo once asked Qin Yemian.
He said that the position of the lord of the city was originally a title given by the favored ministers who had made great contributions to the country after their ancestors retired, and it could only be hereditary and could not be changed at will.
Unless the descendants of the city lord are corrupted and the royal family takes back their orders, they can recommend others, otherwise they cannot be replaced.
Therefore, if the current position of the city lord of the "Chengcheng" is according to the hereditary system, Qian Duoduo should be the next city lord.
And the only condition for hereditary lineage is to have an orthodox bloodline, and those who are rich are not among them. Therefore, this Lehi is not qualified to become the lord of the city at all, and at most he can only temporarily take the position of the lord of the city.
After listening to so many people praising Lehi, it stands to reason that Liluo should appreciate him. But I don't know why she feels that this person is fake. After all, what normal person would not be a little selfish! Unless he concealed his true intentions.
So through these, she is more willing to believe Duoduo's words, after all, children are not like adults who can disguise, and they are more convincing.
Of course, this was just her guess, and it didn't mean that Lehi was a bad person, so she planned to find out.

A quarter past noon
"Duoduo, will you really not be found if you go through the back door?" The two of them hid in a remote alley, trying to wait for an opportunity to move.
"Well, I sneak out of the back every time." The little girl swears.
"Alright! Then let's go ······. Before the word "bar" could be spoken, a person suddenly came out of the back door, startling the fence.
。
