The shopkeeper did not hide it, and said: "Don't hide it, my lord, all the Tartars want are medicinal materials for treating external injuries." ”

Huo Qingzhou nodded, if he didn't guess wrong, among the medicinal materials that were snatched away by the Tartars, he must have been passive.

He waved his hand to let the shopkeeper leave first, and he opened the box again, took out the rags in his mouth, and said to Wang Bo: "Does the Taiping Society also have dealings with the Tartars?" You'd better be honest, or you won't be able to lie so comfortably anymore when you meet me. ”

Uncle Wang's face was yellow, if he wasn't still breathing, Huo Qingzhou would have thought he was a dead man.

Uncle Wang had already recognized Huo Qingzhou, he didn't expect that Huo Qingzhou would appear here.

"Master Huo, what do you want to ask, the little old man has told everything he knows." Wang Bo said.

"Really? Then let me ask you, why did you choose to deal with the people of the Huo family on the way to Xuanfu, and why did Xie Sicheng come to Xuanfu? ”

Xie Sicheng's coming to Xuanfu is by no means simple.

The corners of Uncle Wang's mouth twitched, and a hint of slyness flashed in his eyes: "Xie Sicheng also came to Xuanfu?" yes, that's great, it's all here. ”

Huo Qingzhou sneered: "All here?" Who else? ”

Uncle Wang closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth tightened, and he stopped talking.

Huo Qingzhou shook his head with a smile, he took out a small knife from his sleeve, and without thinking about it, he inserted it into Uncle Wang's chest.

Uncle Wang had been drugged, his limbs were numb, he didn't have any sensation, but his chest was blocked, and the sudden pain made him have to open his eyes and hiss: "Are you going to kill me?" ”

He has been arrested for many days, Huo Jiu has no intention of killing him, although he is put into this big box and cannot move, but every day someone will come in to feed him and wait for him to defecate, he knows that he has a greater use.

The longer people live, the more they fear death, and older people tend to be more afraid of death than younger people.

Uncle Wang didn't expect that Huo Jiu didn't kill him, but Huo Qingzhou gave him a knife without saying a word.

It was a small knife, thin and narrow, and Wang Bo knew this kind of knife, which was a knife specially designed to kill people. It's just a small wound, but it can kill people.

Why does Huo Qingzhou have such a knife in his hand?

Uncle Wang didn't have time to think about it anymore, because the knife stuck in his chest was turning.

The knife was not deep and not fatal, but Huo Qingzhou dug a piece of meat from his chest.

There isn't much meat either, just a small piece.

But Uncle Wang's face changed, his teeth chattered, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Huo Yan, what are you going to do?" ”

Huo Qingzhou sneered: "Didn't I say it just now?" If you fall into my hands, it won't be so comfortable, by the way, you don't have to think that Huo Jiu's people will come to stop me, you just scream and cut your throat, and they don't dare to come in. ”

After speaking, the knife in Huo Qingzhou's hand was once again pressed against Wang Bo's chest, and the cold tip of the knife touched the flesh, as long as he used a little force, it would pierce into the flesh.

"Huo Yan, you might as well kill me with one sword!" Uncle Wang said in a trembling voice.

"Kill you? Wouldn't that be cheaper for you? I'm not going to kill you, I'm just going to let you see with your own eyes, you're scarred, blood oozing out of the holes, staining the big wooden box red. After Huo Qingzhou finished speaking, the knife was once again pierced into Wang Bo's chest.

"It is said that Xie Honglin came to Xuanfu, Xie Sicheng came for Xie Honglin, and I, as well as Ah Yan, also came for this!"

The knife that had been shallowly inserted in his chest was suddenly pulled up, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.

Wang Bo was startled and instinctively wanted to cover the wound with his hands, but his limbs were numb and weak, and he couldn't lift it at all.

There was a light like a bean in the mezzanine, and Huo Qingzhou's whole person was immersed in darkness, as if he was suddenly swallowed by the darkness around him.

Uncle Wang gritted his teeth, and he shouted tentatively: "Master Huo, Master Huo." ”

After a long time, Huo Qingzhou had a voice, and he asked coldly, "Who is Xie Honglin?" ”

Uncle Wang giggled, and his laughter was sharp and piercing: "Xie Honglin, that's not an ordinary person, I heard that her identity is the top precious, Xie Sicheng wants to find her because she is Xie Sicheng's biological mother, no, Cui Niangzi couldn't hold her breath after hearing about it, let's act immediately, stab Huo Jiu on the road, even if you can't move Huo Jiu a bit, you have to make the old master have a grudge against Xie Sicheng, in that way, even if Xie Sicheng has Xie Honglin, the old master will no longer trust him." ”

"You said Xie Honglin is Xie Sicheng's mother? Who told you that? Huo Qingzhou asked coldly.

"If Xie Sicheng is not Xie Honglin's son, the old master will be injured and will cultivate him hard? Master Huo, listening to your tone, it seems that you know Xie Honglin's identity, tsk, you know a lot, but it's no wonder, I think Xie Sicheng has already told his sister-in-law. ”

Xie Sicheng's sister-in-law?

Huo Qingzhou immediately thought of Huo Sijin, it seems that the previous guess was not wrong, Huo Sijin is indeed Xie Sicheng's sister.

Wang Bo thought that Xie Sicheng told Huo Sijin about Xie Honglin's identity, and Huo Sijin was the nominal daughter of the Huo family and his nominal sister, maybe he learned about it from Huo Sijin.

"Where is Xie Honglin? Is she also from the Peace? Huo Qingzhou asked.

Wang Feng shook his head: "That's not it, I only know so much about Xie Honglin, that is, I only learned this name a few days before I left Beijing, and I think she is not from the Taiping Society." ”

Huo Qingzhou's heart was like a galloping horse, he tried to figure it out, that is to say, the Taiping Society got the news from nowhere, saying that Xie Honglin would come to Xuanfu, and Xie Sicheng was going to come to Xuanfu to recognize his mother when he heard the news, Cui Niangzi was worried that with Xie Honglin's help, Xie Sicheng would be more powerful, so she sent someone to assassinate Huo Jiu in the name of Xie Sicheng.

Although Huo Jiu is only a merchant's child, Huo Jiu has a good brother, that is, Zhanhuai.

Now Zhanhuai's reputation is in full swing, even the Taiping Society does not dare to fight him, once the news that Huo Jiu was hunted down by Xie Sicheng reaches Zhanhuai's ears, let alone Xie Sicheng, it is the Taiping Society, I am afraid it will also be a catastrophe.

Don't provoke anyone who leads troops, especially those who dare to send troops without authorization.

Huo Qingzhou breathed a long sigh of relief, it was not Xie Sicheng who came after Ah Yan and Wang Bo, he came to Xuanfu for Xie Honglin.

Thinking of Xie Honglin, Huo Qingzhou's heart was tingling.

This Xie Honglin is fake, it must be.

But there was another voice in his heart, no, she was real, she was real.

After a long while, Huo Qingzhou slowly asked, "Did you mention this to Huo Jiu?" ”

Uncle Wang thought for a while and said, "Huo Jiu is a ghost spirit, I will never say it to him when I am sober, but the person who made the flying knife under his command has given me medicine, and when the medicine has an attack, I don't know if I have told him about it." ”
