147: Lord Ji Dabao has something to say
Ji Shu supports the forehead.
The stepfather's focus was as misdirected as ever.
Shouldn't the words that came out of Gu Lang's mouth get more attention?
At this moment, I heard Jiang Yi's voice outside the door: "Young Master! ”
Ji Shu's heart moved, it was the senior brother who came.
Sure enough, just a moment, a string of slight footsteps accompanied by the sound of the door curtain, and Ji Mo's upright figure walked in.
Ji Mo: "Daddy, Xiaoshu? ”
"Senior brother."
Ji Shu stood up and poured a glass of water for Ji Mo.
Ji Wei pointed to the plum blossom round stool on the side: "Sit down!" ”
"I heard Uncle Bai say that Daddy can come back today, and the child will come and have a look. Why is Xiao Shu here? Ji Mo sat down and said.
"Me," Ji Shu rubbed his nose with his index finger, "It's also a coincidence that I met my stepfather." ”
Ji Wei coughed, interrupted the conversation between the two brothers, sat down lazily, and his eyes stopped on the faces of the two for a moment: "It just so happens that you are all here, and you have something to say for your father." ”
It was rare for the two brothers to see their father have such a solemn and solemn moment, and they all asked, "Daddy, what happened?" ”
Ji Xiao suddenly smiled, and quickly smiled: "This matter is related to my uncle, your uncle." ”
After speaking, he looked at Ji Shu again: "Shu'er, together with the news you got from Gu Lang's mouth, some things can be determined nine times out of ten." ”
A thought lingered in Ji Shu's mind: his father-in-law finally got to the point.
Ji Mo and Ji Shu sat upright together.
"For the past two days, Ah Ping and I have stayed at the Tailai Gambling House - I have to say, the gambling house is indeed a luxurious place to sell money." Ji Wei sighed a few times, not sighing but sadly, "White flowers, silver!" Rich people are really a loser! Don't you know that no matter how big the family business is, it will fail like this? ”
Ji Mo glanced at Ji Shu, and Ji Shu returned the senior brother with a light smile.
However, haven't Daddy and Ji Ping been out for a few days?
However, Ji Mo didn't ask, but talked about the matter: "In what capacity did Daddy enter the gambling house?" ”
"It's not difficult." Ji Wei looked at his son appreciatively, "Since the last accident, the Tailai Gambling House has been very strict with the people who enter and leave the gambling house, but that is nothing, with our Ji family's disguise technique, no one can really see through the skin of the father and Ah Ping, and we went into the gambling house with the name of Jiang Bantu." ”
"What?"
"This?"
After hearing this, Ji Shu first screamed, and almost at the same time, Ji Mo was also surprised.
The last time they went to the Tailai Gambling House with Bai Mei, the result was that the fake gamblers were impressive, and for this reason, it is reasonable for the gambling house to be strict with the identity of the gamblers, but is it really okay for Daddy to enter the gambling house with the name of Jiang Bantu?
Ji Shu still hasn't figured out who the fake gamblers of those who are brave and bold are.
Ji Wei was quite satisfied with the reaction of his two sons, and continued: "Life does not follow the ordinary path, so that there can be fate everywhere. Moreover, it is unreasonable for the father to do this without being unusual. ”
Ji Mo and Ji Shu listened attentively.
"The last time you went to the Tailai Gambling House to try, there was nothing else to gain except for the secret room and the lunar eclipse suspected to be the seventh boy, and the group of troublemakers in the middle of the night didn't seem to have anything to do with us, but after thinking about it, my father didn't think so."
Ji Shu took the kettle on the small tea stove in his hand and wanted to pour another glass of water for himself, but as soon as his right hand reached the edge of the kettle, he withdrew again, and he stood up: "You guys wait a minute, I'll clean my hands." ”
Seeing Ji Wei walk out, Ji Mo said slowly: "Don't look at Daddy's usual uninhibited and uninhibited appearance, he doesn't care about anything, in fact, behind his indifference is the lingering concern about the cause of his grandfather's death, or a deep self-blame...... Daddy, he's carrying a lot. ”
Ji Shu also corrected his color: "Senior brother, why don't I know what you said?" Regarding loyalty and filial piety, my father-in-law has contradictions in his heart, and he is even more righteous, otherwise he would not have promised me and Yu Qian'er to go to the military camp a year ago, and we would not have followed the Shangyuan army to the northwest later. I don't know what my father-in-law was like before my grandfather died, but I know that he has an unhappy past in his heart during the years he has spent with him. Even so, he gave us the best. ”
Ji Mo nodded silently.
So a mask engraved with the word "Jiang" made my father see the bright flowers, and he went to the Tailai Casino without hesitation to find out the hidden truth in person.
He's giving himself a chance.
"I've always had a question that I can't solve," Ji Mo twisted his brows, "I jumped to the roof with white eyebrows that night, and saw another person standing on the roof not far away, and I always felt that that person was not malicious, but also a little friendly...... It even gives people the illusion that they are helping us escape. ”
"Really?" Ji Shu wasn't very sure, "Could it be Mr. Ning's person?" ”
As soon as this statement came out, I was slightly startled at first, how could it be?
Ji Mo thought about it seriously: "You have to say this-hasn't Mr. Ning always wanted to be an apprentice with white eyebrows?" It's not that it doesn't make sense. ”
While the two were talking, Ji Shu walked back.
He sat down and said, "Do you remember that your Uncle Bai was coerced? ”
"Yes." Ji Mo looked at Ji Yan's eyes, "You said that the person Uncle Bai saw - the person who 'invited' Uncle Bai to go, looked like he was over half a hundred years old, tall and thin with frosty hair, and was called 'Venerable Lord'. ”
"That's right!" Ji Wei snapped his fingers, "Duanji is the best at knowing people, and he specially described to me that this person is 'not big-eyed, tall and thin, with white hair and slender fingers'." Shu'er, do you remember the standard of our family's apprenticeship? ”
Duanji, Bai Jingshi table words.
Ji Shu replied: "My father-in-law said that the Ji family is strict in accepting apprentices, not only to be smart, but also to have slender and flexible fingers!" Rather lack than excess. ”
Therefore, the Ji family has few and scattered disciples.
"That's a good point." Ji Jian continued the topic, "Later, Duanji found someone to draw the person who was respected as the 'Lord', I saw it, and only the eyebrows and eyes on that face matched the appearance of Master Jiang - if it was really him, it must be disguised." However, the hands of the people in the painting make it difficult for me to judge. Duan Ji said, although the fingers of the hands were slender, they were slightly stiff......
"Also, the wide-backed knife of the lunar eclipse reminds me of the Cui Ziqing case you mentioned earlier, although the case has been closed, we understand that there are many suspicions, and we also suspect that the real murderer is a disguised murderer, so as to blame the prince. In that case, why can't that murderer be a lunar eclipse? And the person behind the lunar eclipse, why can't it be Jiang Shibo?
Therefore, a few days before his father and Ah Ping went out, they were in and out of the streets and alleys near the Tailai Gambling House, and found that the alley behind the Tailai Gambling House was secretly connected with the gambling house, and then compared with the scene that Duanji saw that night, he concluded that Lao Bai was taken to a house there! ”
Ji Wei said so much in one breath, and then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Ji Mo and Ji Shu looked at each other again, and the same pride and the same worry floated in their hearts.
Their father has hidden in them the adventurous spirit of "not entering the tiger's den, but not getting the tiger's son"!
The words are thrilling.
Ji Mo opened his mouth, and finally asked with difficulty: "Daddy, how did you and Brother Ji spend their lives in Tailai Gambling House under the name of Jiang Bantu?" ”
If it turned out to be as his father had inferred, how did the two of them get out?
