Chapter 125: Like a Dream
"Isn't that retribution?" Nangong Che asked rhetorically.
Bai Shuqin didn't understand what it meant at first, but when he understood, he really wanted to kick Nangong Che to the ground. Before she could kick it, Nangong Che had already walked in front of her and was ready to go down, and she hurriedly followed.
Nangong Che didn't go down, and stopped at the staircase. He crouched down and watched what was going on down there.
Bai Shuqin also squatted down and looked down. There is a wooden staircase with several large oil lamps lit at the bottom. The space below is very spacious, with various props hanging on the walls, and a huge desk that I don't know what it is for, but there are old blood stains on it.
Those people threw the dancing girl they had carried down on the desk, and one of them sighed, "The girls in this capital are different, much heavier than those bamboo poles last time." ”
They hadn't done anything to the girl who had taken it on their backs for the time being, as if they were waiting for something.
Not long after, the proprietress who had just entered the inn walked among them. The proprietress is different from the ordinary appearance she saw during the day, her eyes revealed fierceness at this time, and even her ordinary aging appearance became a little hideous.
Although Bai Shuqin had long seen that this proprietress was not a good stubble, he didn't expect her to have such an appearance.
The proprietress glanced at the people on the desk, scanned the bandits with fierce eyes, and said sharply: "You guys know how to play with women, what about other things?" ”
Those people were like frosted eggplants, their heads drooped, and only a big bearded man replied, "It's all there!" ”
"Don't bring it to me yet!" The proprietress said angrily.
The big man shrank his head and pushed the pile of things placed in the desk in front of the boss, "Boss, all of them are here." ”
The things were piled up like a hill, and the proprietress flipped through it twice, and saw that there were a lot of valuable things in it, and her face suddenly smiled. She picked up Maihime's jewelry box, opened it, held the jewelry inside in her hand, and looked left and right in the light.
"Boss, we're going to have a bumper harvest this time." The big man complimented on the side.
Those jewels weren't priceless, but a box full of them was worth a lot of silver, not to mention other things.
The proprietress was only interested in money, getting what she wanted, and didn't care at all how they wanted to play with the girls.
Just as the proprietress was holding the box of jewelry and preparing to leave, the "girls" lying on the desk all sat up, and Bai Shuqin recognized that one of them was the person who drove the carriage for Nangong Che and them, called Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu jumped down from the desk, blocked the way of the proprietress, pinched his throat and learned the girl's voice: "Where do you want to go with this girl's jewelry?" ”
Bai Shuqin almost laughed out loud, if Xiao Wu added an orchid finger, it would really look like a sissy.
The group of people was obviously stunned by the situation in front of them, how did a good girl become a man. The proprietress was the first to understand, knowing that she was on the road, she took out two knives from the side and looked at Xiao Wu.
When the others saw this, they also took up arms and fought together.
After all, the Imperial Forest Army is formally trained, and not only is it strong in its individual strength, but it is also first-class in its group combat ability. Although the group was not weak, they were still no match for them.
Bai Shuqin watched calmly, this battle was destined from the beginning to who would lose and who would win.
Seeing that she couldn't beat them, the proprietress wanted to escape with the jewelry box in her arms, and went up the stairs with her eyes closed, but saw a pair of women's feet. She raised her head, saw Bai Shuqin, saw that she was thin, and expected her to be unarmed, so she slashed at her with a knife.
There was also Nangong Che next to him, Bai Shuqin didn't bother to do it himself, so he easily hid to the side and pushed Nangong Che out casually.
Nangong Che didn't expect Bai to be like this, he was almost cut by the proprietress, he glanced at Bai Shuqin, and grabbed the proprietress tightly with his backhand, and the knife fell to the ground.
Bai Shuqin quickly picked up the knife and put it on the neck of the proprietress, and said with a smug smile: "Just catch it, maybe I can spare your life." ”
The proprietress did this business, and she had already hung her head on her neck, and spat directly at Bai Shuqin, "If you kill me, I won't let you go if I am a ghost!" ”
Fortunately, Bai Shuqin dodged quickly just now and was not splashed by her saliva, but the boss's behavior completely angered her. She sneered, and the knife cut a bloody mark on the boss's neck, "I really want to see what the ghost looks like, thank you so much for helping me fulfill my wish." ”
The proprietress felt the danger and wanted to struggle, but her body was firmly controlled by Nangong Che and she couldn't move.
The sharp knife cut through the skin of the boss's neck, warm blood flowed down the wound, and the breath of death approached step by step. Although the proprietress was stubborn, her body began to tremble involuntarily.
Bai Shuqin knew this kind of person best, and if she really wanted to kill her, she was reluctant to die. She counted dozens of seconds in her heart, and in her opinion, this proprietress could only hold on for five seconds at most.
In fact, the proprietress didn't even hold on for three seconds, seeing that Bai Shuqin was going to work hard, the frightened urine came out, and she begged Bai Shuqin in a broken heart: "Girl, auntie, I can give you as much money as you want, as long as you let me live." ”
"If I let you live, I will cut off the lives of other innocent people!" Bai Shuqin's face was gloomy, for this kind of vicious person, killing is doing good deeds.
The knife was held tightly in his hand, but Bai Shuqin couldn't get off no matter what. After all, it is a human life, and she can't treat human life as a mustard, except for the last time when she killed people in Han Yu's mansion in a hurry, everything else is for self-preservation.
However, the face of the proprietress and the things she had done, Bai Shuqin was still unwilling to spare her so easily.
Bai Shuqin withdrew the knife and broke all the hands and tendons of the boss lady at a speed that was almost invisible to ordinary people, from now on she would be a wasted person, as for whether others would come to her for revenge, this was not within the scope of Bai Shuqin's concern.
Nangong Che let go of her hand, and the proprietress collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud.
"What are you going to do with her?" Bai Shuqin asked Nangong Che.
For this kind of person, Nangong Che didn't see him as a human being at all, he clapped his hands, "How she treats others, how she treats her now." ”
Bai Shuqin looked at the proprietress whose face was twisted together due to pain, and there was only disgust in his heart.
The sound of the fight below gradually became quieter, and Bai Shuqin poked his head out to see that those people had all been subdued by the Royal Forest Army. She didn't care what would happen to these people, seeing that it was still dark outside, she just wanted to go back and rest.
Nangong Che saw that she was leaving, and he didn't stop her.
Upstairs, Bai Shuqin's room showed no signs of being turned over, she felt strange, could it be that these people knew that she didn't have much money, and they didn't even bother to turn it over?
After tossing for so long, she no longer had the energy to think about it, and she fell asleep when she got on the bed.
If people don't know what to do unless they do it, since the last time the body was found in Han Yu's mansion, Qingfeng began to investigate the relationship between Han Yu and the White Mansion. Now more than ten days have passed, and all the Qingfeng that should be found has been found.
"Third prince, my subordinates have inquired that Han Yu once went to Baifu and only stayed for half a day." Qingfeng told Zhuo Jinxuan the news he had found.
There was one thing that made Qingfeng feel strange, he thought about it and decided to say it anyway, "When Miss Bai invited you to dinner that day, although the dishes packed back by the third imperial concubine were eaten by Du Zijun, the remaining bones were gnawed by the dogs in the yard. ”
"What does it have to do with this?" Zhuo Jinxuan was puzzled, it was okay for people to eat, but what could happen to dogs if they ate. What's more, the last time he went to Baohetang, he saw that the dog was still alive.
"The dog was carrying a puppy, and the day after the accident of the third imperial concubine, the dog also had a miscarriage." Aomine Road.
Zhuo Jinxuan frowned, a dog who usually eats and drinks does not worry about miscarriage, if it is a coincidence, this is too coincidental, I am afraid that it is the first time since Pangu opened the world.
Aomine only had some doubts in his heart, and there was no definite evidence, so he mentioned it like this. He continued: "My subordinates went down to investigate the restaurant, and there was nothing unusual that day. ”
"There was nothing abnormal that day, but what about before?" Zhuo Jinxuan asked.
"There was no before, and there is no direct evidence to prove that the miscarriage of the third imperial concubine was poisoned." Aomine replied truthfully.
Zhuo Jinxuan had already calmed down, Imperial Doctor Li checked Bai Shuqin every day, the fetus was normal, and it suddenly miscarred without any warning, he didn't believe it anyway.
At this time, Du Zijun happened to pass by the study, heard the sound of conversation inside, and quietly lay at the door and listened for a long time.
Du Zijun firmly believed in everything Bai Shuqin said, she said that Bai Bingbing was harmed, then she must have been framed by Bai Bingbing. Since Qingfeng couldn't find evidence, he went to find it, and he definitely had to prove that what Bai Shuqin said was right.
Just do it, Du Zijun decided to start with the restaurant first.
Bai Shuqin once told Du Zijun that if he wanted to get any information, he would first mix in with those who knew the information. Get acquainted with them first, and they will naturally tell him everything they know.
Tired all the way, Bai Shuqin had a good sleep last night without thinking, and when he woke up, it was already bright outside.
Thinking of last night's events, it was like a dream, but Bai Shuqin knew that it was not a dream, and she was still wearing the clothes she had gotten up last night.
She got up and went downstairs, and the dancing girls were all ready, looking the same as usual, and it seemed that she didn't know anything about last night.
The people in the inn disappeared, Bai Shuqin walked behind the urn yesterday, the staircase that originally led to the bottom had been sealed by wooden boards, and she squatted down to hear if there was anyone below.
"It's all taken care of." Nangong Che's voice sounded behind Bai Shuqin.
Bai Shuqin was a little surprised, they killed all those people, which seemed to be a bit bloody. She always felt that there was a better way than to kill them.
"They didn't die, they just didn't live as dead." Nangong Che said lightly.
Bai Shuqin felt that the hairs on his back stood up when he heard this, and he knew from the torture instruments in the Dark Night Pavilion that Nangong Che acted ruthlessly. Those people are afraid that they are begging to die now.
However, Bai Shuqin suddenly thought of himself again. Now she still has use value, what when she has no use value? Will it end up the same?
She looked up at Nangong Che, and the expression on her face became cold.
The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and Bai Shuqin knows that he is just a chess piece now. Even if Nangong Che behaves a little special to her, in the final analysis, he still uses the relationship.
After setting off from the inn, Bai Shuqin was very quiet, and he didn't even care about the curtains that he would have to open on weekdays.
Nangong Che lifted the curtain for her, and rarely took the initiative to ask her, "What are you thinking?" ”
Bai Shuqin didn't seem to be able to hear, and he didn't move or make a sound. Nangong Che stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her, but she still didn't even blink her eyes.
"You think of yourself from those people, and you don't know what you're going to do." Nangong Che stared at Bai Shuqin and said yes.
Bai Shuqin hugged his arm, leaned his head on the carriage, and smiled bitterly. In the past, she always felt that fate was in her hands, and it was only now that she realized that she was just a puppet of fate, at the mercy of it.
Nangong Che reached out and grabbed Bai Shuqin's arm and pulled her to his side. Bai Shuqin didn't struggle, she didn't even have the desire to move.
