As soon as the words fell, Xie Jinlan said, "Is the time ripe?" ”

Doctor Liu shook his head lightly and said:

"The grass people had heard the storyteller of the wine shop tell the story of a teenager's revenge, and I thought that when the streets heard about it, it was the time to come. Cosi...... Siyuan never contacted the grass people again. ”

Xie Jinlan bowed slightly, afraid that Bai Siyuan knew that Tang Anyu had already found 'Red Wu', so he gave up.

Glancing at Dr. Liu, he continued: "Except for that time, Bai Siyuan still has contact with you?" ”

Dr. Liu said:

Later, he met with the grass people twice. Just a few days ago, he wrote to the grass people to meet at the foot of Yanzhong Mountain, which was the last time the grass people met him.

At that time, he didn't speak, but just threw a jade pendant to the grass people. It was at that time that the grass people knew about Si Yuan...... He's my own flesh and blood! ”

As he spoke, he carefully took off the jade pendant that was hung around his neck with a red rope and placed close to his body, got up and walked to Xie Jinlan's side, and respectfully handed it over: "Lord Xie, please see, this is that jade pendant." ”

Xie Jinlan raised his hand to take it, looking at it carefully.

During this period, Dr. Liu kept looking at the jade pendant with trepidation without blinking an eye.

After Xie Jinlan handed him back the jade pendant, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief as if he was relieved, and carefully put it back in its place after returning to his seat.

Xie Jinlan mentioned it casually: "How did Dr. Liu know that he died at the foot of Yanzhong Mountain, not Bai Siyuan?" ”

Doctor Liu smiled bitterly and said:

At first, the grass people also mistook him for the one who died. The grass people have said before that he has met the grass people twice since the first meeting. This second time was the day the body of the deceased was found.

I don't know if he is afraid that the grass people will worry about this, or if he is afraid that the grass people will reveal his identity because of this. ”

Xie Jinlan said thoughtfully: "Then did he mention the identity of the deceased?" ”

Doctor Liu shook his head lightly and said, "He just told the grass people that he was not dead, and he left." The grass people didn't even get a chance to talk to him. Maybe it was almost noon, and he was afraid of being discovered, so he came and went in a hurry. ”

Xie Jinlan asked tentatively: "Hasn't Dr. Liu ever been curious about the identity of the deceased?" ”

Doctor Liu said: "Naturally, he is curious, and after thinking about it, he thinks that person should be a stand-in." ”

Xie Jinlan repeated: "Stand-in? ”

Dr. Liu said: "Not bad! It's a stand-in! The deceased was of the same shape and dress as him. Aside from deliberately pretending to be his stand-in, the grass people really can't think of any other possibilities. ”

Xie Jinlan nodded clearly, and then asked, "Although Bai Siyuan didn't worship you as a teacher, you can be regarded as half of his master." Why did he pretend to be Bai Sihe to see you? ”

When Dr. Liu heard this, he immediately frowned, and stroked his short beard one by one: "This ......"

Xie Jinlan didn't bother either.

In the middle of the sound, Dr. Liu paused, and a complex look of sudden remorse and pain flashed in his eyes, and then looked at Xie Jinlan: "Perhaps, he doesn't want to involve the grass people." ”

Xie Jinlan rolled his eyes and understood what Dr. Liu meant.

The relationship between Dr. Liu and Bai Siyuan is secret, but if the government investigates carefully, it will definitely be able to find out what the relationship between the two of them is.

Bai Siyuan came back this time for the revenge of his parents, although his words to Dr. Liu were like that, but who knows if he really won't kill the enemy?

If he stabbed the enemy, if the government found out his head, it would inevitably implicate Dr. Liu.

Xie Jinlan nodded noncommittally, looked at Dr. Liu's eyes fixedly, and refused to let go of the slightest strangeness: "Does Dr. Liu know, where is Bai Siyuan now?" ”

Doctor Liu was slightly stunned, and after realizing the meaning of Xie Jinlan's words, he asked rhetorically: "Lord Xie, is this suspected that the grass people hid him?" ”

Xie Jinlan didn't answer, but his expression clearly told Dr. Liu that this was what he meant.

Doctor Liu said: "My lord, if it is really the grass people who hid him, why did the grass people say those words to the adults? ”

Xie Jinlan said: "True is also false, and sometimes false is true." The best lie is a mixture of truth and falsehood. ”

Doctor Liu was instantly dumbfounded, and then said:

"My lord, please forgive the grass people. Although the deceased died because of Siyuan, it was not killed by Siyuan. Even if Si Yuan planned to let the deceased be a substitute for the dead ghost from the beginning, this sin is not death, right?

If the grass people really want to protect Siyuan, shouldn't they let the officials arrest him and return to the government, in case he really stabs the enemy and thus makes a big mistake? ”

Xie Jinlan said: "Perhaps, he has already stabbed the enemy, but no one has found out." ”

Seeing Xie Jinlan's unrelenting appearance, Dr. Liu had a faint anger on his face:

"My lord, that's all the grass people say! Believe it or not! If the adults insist on suspecting that the grass people are hiding Siyuan, the grass people have nothing to say! ”

Xie Jinlan stared at Dr. Liu tightly and was silent.

After a while, he retracted his gaze and smiled slightly apologetically: "Doctor Liu, don't be surprised, this official now believes that you are not lying." ”

Doctor Liu was stunned, and after reacting that Xie Jinlan's previous actions were just for temptation, he also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My lord is wise!" ”

The two talked casually for a few more words, and Xie Jinlan offered his farewell.

Dr. Liu personally sent him out of the gate.

Turning around, the smile on Xie Jinlan's face suddenly retracted, and he changed to a thoughtful demeanor.

After moving away from Liu's mansion, Xie Jinlan beckoned to Mo Yan, bent down and lowered his head to whisper to him.

When he straightened up, Mo Yan bowed solemnly, and then walked away.

Ruan Yezhen didn't know what kind of medicine Xie Jinlan was selling in his gourd.

After carefully recalling every word he said to Dr. Liu, as well as Dr. Liu's demeanor, she still couldn't find any clues, and she couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Why is she so stupid!

Looking at Xie Jinlan's tall and slender figure, her mood quickly recovered: there are few people as smart as Xie Jinlan in the world. She couldn't see through what he saw, it couldn't be more normal.

Although Xie Jinlan was looking ahead, Yu Guang had been paying attention to Ruan Yezhen.

Seeing that she frowned and thought hard for a while, was very annoyed for a while, and smiled again for a while, she shook her head with a smile in her heart:

The girl's mind, like tomorrow's weather, is really unpredictable and unpredictable......

Seeing that Xie Jinlan did not return to the Wind Inn, but entered the Pinxiangju, Ruan Yezhen did not feel strange at all.

But seeing that he did not go to the private room, but took a seat in a corner of the lobby, she instantly felt that his trip was not just for dinner.

It's just that......

Glancing at Xie Jinlan, who was sitting leisurely, waiting for Xiao Er to serve the food with his head propped up, Ruan Yezhen really couldn't guess his purpose.
