Chapter 384: The Storm Moves 5
Even though he guessed that Bai Que had something to do with the killer organization "Nine Stars" that Leng Shu had previously belonged, when he heard the words "Deputy Pavilion Master", Lin Ruo was still a little incredulous.
Bai Sanniang's righteous son turned out to be the deputy pavilion master of Jiuxing?
No wonder, Bai Sanniang can become the number one person in Qinhuai Yangzhou, and black and white will give her some face.
"Tell me what you know. If I can't say it, I'll arrange for Blameless or Atze to send someone to investigate. β
I have to say that Lin Ruo is a good employer. She promised to give Leng Shu protection, and she would definitely do it, and if she couldn't say it, she would find another way to investigate. Therefore, she doesn't need to beat around the bush when talking to Leng Shu.
Leng Shu pondered for a moment, and then said, "There's nothing that can't be said. Ever since I followed my father-in-law into the Nine Stars, the Deputy Pavilion Master has already been there. At that time, the old pavilion master was still there, and my stepfather and the old pavilion master were old acquaintances. The current pavilion master is the righteous son of the old pavilion master, and the only apprentice of the old pavilion master. β
"The number one killer in the world?"
"Yes," Leng Shu nodded, "After the old pavilion master died, he became the pavilion master, and he promoted Bai Que to the deputy pavilion master. The two of them...... Very close......"
When Leng Shu spoke, there was always a hint of strangeness on his cold face, although he expressed it very tactfully, but Lin Ruo understood what he meant.
As Bai Que leaned down to whisper to her, she faintly saw a red spot on the right side of the back of her neck from the neckline, and her intuition told her that it was a kiss mark.
After several contacts, Lin Ruo felt that Bai Que was a person who was unruly on the surface but actually very cautious. If he is happy with someone, unless he is a person who trusts him very much, he will not give up his back with confidence and leave a mark on the personβthe kiss mark in that position is most likely left when he was surrounded from behind.
This is a conclusion made by Lin Ruo, who has Gu Mengyao's life experience, based on the connection between theory and practice.
A woman, hugging Bai Que from behind, was enjoying the joy of fishing and water, this picture, Lin Ruo felt a little weird. In addition, the smell on Bai Que's body was very clean, without the fragrance of a woman's fat powder, and when he looked at her, although he tried his best to create an ambiguous ambiguity, she didn't feel that it was out of a man's pursuit of a woman.
Therefore, she was equally bold in deceiving Bai Que.
If you guess wrong, at most the other party will feel humiliated and angry.
However, she guessed right.
"How is Bai Que's skills?"
"The deputy pavilion master has been injured, and his body bones have not been very strong, and the pavilion master does not allow him to practice martial arts, so his kung fu is not ordinary. On weekdays, most of the deputy pavilion masters follow the pavilion master, otherwise, they will arrange for the protection of masters. β
Lin Ruo nodded, Bai Que's ten fingers were slender and there were no thin calluses, and he seemed to be pampered, so he only regarded him as the young master of Qinhuai Yangzhou, and no one would doubt this identity.
"Then, what does Bai Sanniang have to do with Jiuxing? How much do you know about Bai Que's life experience? β
"Bai Sanniang used to be the Qinglou woman in Qinhuai Flower Workshop, and she once covered the injured old pavilion master, so the old pavilion master has always taken care of her. The reason why Bai Sanniang was arranged to take care of the deputy pavilion master was to find someone who could be trusted and give the deputy pavilion master an identity that could see the light. As for the background of the deputy pavilion master...... Leng Shu frowned, "No one has ever talked about it. β
Lin Ruo asked curiously: "How did you know about Bai Sanniang and the old pavilion master?" β
But whatever is said, it will inevitably be cold and confirmed, and Lin Ruo understands this very well. Otherwise, he will admit that he does not know.
"My father-in-law told me that he was the one who hunted down and killed the old pavilion master at that time."
Lin Ruo was suddenly, no wonder Leng Shu would know about the matter between Bai Sanniang and the old pavilion master.
She didn't ask who Leng Shu's stepfather was, nor did she ask him why his father-in-law wanted to hunt down and kill the old pavilion master of Jiuxing. Because from Leng Shu's words, it can be seen that before the old pavilion master met Bai Que, he was already very familiar with Bai Sanniang. As for Bai Sanniang and the old pavilion master's flowers, it should have nothing to do with what she wants to know at the moment.
- At this moment, Lin Ruo thinks so.
"Ye Ling told me that you left Jiuxing four years ago because your stepfather was seriously ill?"
"Yes."
"Nine Stars let you go so easily?"
Retreating from a killer organization, the obstacles can be imagined. However, Leng Shu succeeded.
Ye Ling also asked Leng Shu this question, but he didn't answer it, because he promised his father-in-law that he would never tell others about it. At this moment, Lin Ruo also asked him this question.
"Why, can't you say it?"
After pondering for a long time, Leng Shu finally spoke: "It was the deputy pavilion master who let me and my father-in-law go." β
"Bai Que?"
"Yes."
Lin Ruo looked Leng Shu up and down with an inquiring gaze: "Why?" β
"I only know part of it. Back then, my father-in-law took me and joined Nine Stars. There were three agreements between him and the old pavilion master. After these three agreements are completed, my stepfather can take me away at any time. β
So, is it a justifiable departure?
"What agreement?"
"This ...... Can't say for the time being. Leng Shu was a little embarrassed and looked at Lin Ruo, "But what I can tell the young lady is that at that time, the father-in-law only completed two of the agreements, after the death of the old pavilion master, the deputy pavilion master was poisoned and died, and the father-in-law found an antidote for the deputy pavilion master, and the deputy cabinet master was exempted from the third agreement as a repayment of kindness." β
Lin Ruoxin said: I can't see it, Bai Que is still a person with clear grievances.
"After that, you left the Nine Stars?"
Leng Shu shook his head: "No, my father-in-law has no intention of leaving. He went to Shuzhong in order to track down some old things, but he was plotted by the Tang Sect. Thanks to the rescue of the third master, my father-in-law was able to hold on until I rushed over. β
"Old things?"
"It's related to the deputy cabinet master, and it's also related to the poison doctor."
Poison doctor?
Lin Ruo had heard a lot of things about the rivers and lakes from Pei Yikong, Mo Yongchou and Su Muyu, and most of them were just heard as legends. There are three miracle doctors in the rivers and lakes who have strange tempers, both good and evil, and are called "ghost poisonous blood".
The "ghost doctor" is not worried, he is the master of her and Su Muyu, whether he can save people or not depends on his mood; "Blood doctor" Cai Yuyu, whose whereabouts are difficult to trace, raised a large number of medicine people to test poison, and then extracted the antidote from their poisonous blood, which sounds terrifying, but his "medicine" is also weird; The last "poison doctor", with an unknown surname, does not know the origin, does not know the appearance, only knows that in this world, there is no poison that he can't solve.
"The poison doctor is the person who was found by the righteous father to detoxify the deputy pavilion master." Leng Shu's eyes sank unconsciously, "The poison doctor's real name is Tang Biao, and he is the younger brother of the master of the Tang Sect, according to his generation, Tang Xiao should call him uncle." β
"Tang Biao?" Lin Ruo's eyes flashed, "Does Bai Que call him 'Mr. Tang'?" β
Leng Shu looked surprised and nodded: "That's true, except for the deputy pavilion master, everyone else calls Tang Wei 'Mr. Poison'." How does the young lady know? β
