Chapter Twenty-Nine: Watching a Play and Catching a Thief
Boundless but smiling.
Liu Cheng's anger did not subside, and he wrinkled his eyebrows inexplicably.
After thinking about it eventually, he still took his robe and went in.
In any case, Zhong Qin is his master, and he can't be disrespectful.
In the room, Zhong Qin took a sip of tea, his posture was leisurely, as if nothing had happened.
After Liu Cheng sat down with a cold face, she said quietly: "What can you see about the right talent?" ”
Wuyun stood aside with his sword in his arms, his eyebrows moving slightly: "Judging from today's situation, the Xie family will definitely have to make a move next." ”
Liu Cheng, who was angry, snorted lightly: "Clues? Xie Laogou obviously came prepared, trapping the Liu family in an unrighteous place! ”
The two families of Xie Liu have fought for more than ten years, and there has never been a time in Liucheng that is so aggrieved and insulted by others as today!
Sensing Liu Cheng's hostility, Zhong Qin was not annoyed, and the corners of his mouth swept up with playful hooks.
Her dark eyes were cool and moving, and her eyebrows were lightly raised: "Shopkeeper Liu is right, the most important thing for today's plan is to find the thief." ”
"Thief?" Liucheng and the Boundless Face looked at each other.
Liucheng, in particular, almost choked on the tea that he hadn't swallowed yet.
Although Wuyun knows some insiders, he doesn't know what Zhong Qin's ultimate goal is.
"Impossible! Whether it is the ore vein or the sword casting division, everyone is the genealogy of the Liu family, and it is impossible to do anything that harms the lord and seeks glory! ”
Liu Cheng retorted decisively, without a trace of hesitation.
Zhong Qin blew the mist from the teacup, and his demeanor was calm: "The rules of the Tibetan Sword Mountain Villa are very strict, and the protection of the mine is naturally strict, and the Xie family can still infiltrate in to do tricks, isn't it internal and external?" ”
"Again...... I just went to the Fanjing Mountain Range to inspect on the front foot today, and the head of the Xie family brought someone to search for it on the back foot, could there be such a coincidence? ”
"This ......" Liu Cheng's old face changed suddenly, and his voice trembled thickly: "This ...... Maybe it's a coincidence. ”
Even Liu Cheng himself didn't believe it.
Zhong Qin looked at him with burning eyes, and pursed his lips slightly: "Not to mention anything else, if there are no internal thieves, where do those secondary irons with the mark of the Tibetan Sword Villa come from?" ”
Liu Cheng is a smart person, so he doesn't need to be reminded too much by her.
"Bang!" Sure enough, Liu Cheng slapped the table and stood up, with an angry face: "I didn't expect that it would be difficult to prevent thieves!" ”
Anger touched the wound, and Liu Cheng coughed rapidly.
Zhong Qin said that he hadn't thought about it on the way back, but he just couldn't believe it.
Wuyun was much calmer, and asked in a deep voice: "Young master, what should we do next?" ”
"Wait for the rabbit and catch the turtle in the urn." Zhong Qin showed a bright smile, not slow.
The anger eased slightly, Liu Cheng was suspicious, and he was a little cramped: "Young master, my subordinates took the liberty to ask for advice, but all of this today was arranged by you?" ”
In the Sword Casting Division of the Fanjing Mountain Range, the Xie family was menacing, and Liu Cheng felt like he had fallen into a trap, and once suspected that Zhong Qin was being bought.
Nowadays, it looks more like ...... A game within a game!
"Shopkeeper Liu, wait, there is still a play tonight, and after tonight, you will understand." Zhong Qin's white fingers tapped on the tabletop and smiled mysteriously: "I just asked Shopkeeper Liu to help me send a letter to Xie Yuanjiang." ”
Liu Cheng was full of suspicions, but he didn't dare to underestimate this young man anymore, and did as she was told......
It was night, and a dark curtain shrouded the sky, except for the occasional dog barking or two, Nanyin City was depressed and silent.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, it is the best time to kill people and plunder goods, Fanjing Mountain Range, a small group of black figures moved quickly, squatting behind the dense grass and watching vigilantly, as if they were waiting for something.
Liu Cheng followed closely and asked in a low voice: "Young Master, the miners have stopped at night, aren't we going to catch the thief?" What are you doing here? ”
"Naturally, I came to watch the show and catch the thief." Zhong Qin patted Liu Cheng on the shoulder soothingly, signaling him to be calm.
Liu Cheng held back his doubts and had to endure it for the time being.
Not long after, there was a rustling sound, accompanied by the sound of non-existent speech.
"Young master, someone is coming!" Wuyun grasped the sword he carried with him, ready to attack.
Even if there was no strong internal force, Zhong Qin and the others were talking from far and near.
"Didn't you say that it was good, as long as you found the secondary iron with the mark of the Hidden Sword Villa in the Sword Casting Division? Why sprinkle stone dust! ”
"Finding the second iron is indeed a big blow to the Tibetan Sword Villa, but King Pingnan will not really be guilty because of the second iron, just in case, the 100,000 swords must not be cast!"
"Shameless! Do you think that willow chime is really as simple as it seems? ”
The words that gradually become clear to the ears make everyone in the dark coax for a while!
The voice......
Finding the movements of the person next to him, Zhong Qin stopped him: "It's not time yet!" ”
Liu Cheng's intention to jump out to check was stopped, his eyes were empty, and the muscles of his hand holding his sword burst out.
No way!
He must have heard it wrong!
How could the thief be him!
At this moment, the two shadows walked not far from them.
"Now, you don't think you're going to regret it, are you? Don't forget, your granddaughter is still in the hands of our master, if you don't obey obediently, hum ......"
The distance was close, and the sound of conversation fell into the ears of Zhong Qin and the others without a building.
Even if it was pitch black, it could still be confirmed that the person who spoke was Xie Yuanjiang.
"I hope you talk and count, and let my granddaughter go when you're done with this!" Another cold snort shattered Liucheng's hopes.
In the dark, Liu Cheng couldn't believe his ears, and stared at the figure scattered not far away, as if he had lost his voice.
Zhong Qin didn't move, she left the opportunity to Liu Cheng.
The Xie family has suppressed the Liu family for so long, and no one wants to catch this thief more than him.
For almost half a pillar of incense, looking at the skillful movements of the two black shadows, Liu Cheng's heart sank little by little, but he was not as emotional as he was just now.
He was afraid to rush out, as he thought.
Wuyun saw his hesitation and reminded softly: "Shopkeeper Liu, let's do it." ”
Escaping is not the best option.
Liu Cheng also knew this, and held back his anger and disappointment, closed his dirty eyes, and nodded.
After receiving Liucheng's signal, Wuyun showed up with people.
"Who!"
The black shadow also noticed the movement, and was so frightened that he immediately turned back, and when he saw the people surrounding them again, his face changed for a moment, and he froze like thunder and lightning.
"Liu, Liu shopkeeper, why are you ......" He Lao was stunned like half a piece of wood.
Torches were held high, illuminating the dark and gloomy forest.
"He Lao, I didn't expect that it was you who betrayed the owner for glory, and I and the owner trusted you so much!" Liu Cheng glared angrily, completely disappointed and cold.
Zhong Qin said that when he found out the thief, he had doubted the entire mansion, but He Lao, he had never had doubts from beginning to end!
