Chapter 117: Stratagem
At the end of the day, the night was still shrouded.
Su Yao secretly left the small courtyard, and the guards around her, who were lowly cultivated, did not notice it.
According to Lianxue's memories, Su Yao found the house where Lin Wanzhao was taken. It is a single-family courtyard, and the furnishings and costumes are not ordinary, and it is specially set aside by the wolf gang to entertain distinguished guests.
To Su Yao's surprise, she didn't see the shadow of Luo Mingcheng's subordinates after lurking outside the house for a long time, not even the members of the Wolf Gang Helper.
The area around the house seemed to be divided into a forbidden area, and there was no one around.
Su Yao cautiously walked to the door of the house, and then knocked on the door with a secret signal that only she and Shen Jing knew.
Shen Jing in the house immediately became vigilant after hearing the slight movement outside the door. But soon he heard the familiar code, which was also made by the two of them occasionally in their leisure along the way to escape, but he didn't expect it to come in handy this time.
Shen Guo signaled Lin Wanzhao not to be nervous, and then opened the door to let Su Yao in.
Luo Mingcheng's body was at the corner of the square table, and the blood stain formed by Shen Jing's drag was very conspicuous, so after Su Yao walked into the room, he immediately found Luo Mingcheng, who was already dead and could no longer die.
But beyond that, she sensed something unusual in the room.
She looked at Shen Jing, and then at Lin Wanzhao, who seemed to be a little nervous on the side of the bed. Lin Wanzhao's eyes deliberately dodged after she came in. Su Yao was a little confused, but when she saw the little blood stains on the bed, she felt that Lin Wanzhao was probably frightened.
Although Su Yao was still curious, she didn't ask about these inconsequential details. She and Shen Jing stood in the room in pairs, she looked at Shen Jing and asked slowly, "Luo Mingcheng is dead, what are you going to do next?" ”
Shen said: "Early tomorrow morning, we can deceive Bai Wuya here under the pretense of Luo Mingcheng's tone, and then talk to him about how to kill Luo Mingcheng's subordinates." ”
"Are you sure Bai Wuya will obediently cooperate?" Su Yao asked again.
"Cooperate with us to kill Luo Mingcheng's subordinates, we are safe with each other, and we can act as if nothing happened, and if we do something clean, the court will not be able to track him down."
"Luo Mingcheng's death will ultimately be attributed to us."
Although the meaning of Shen Jing's subsequent words was secretive, Su Yao couldn't help but glance at Lin Wanzhao on the bed. Shen Jing noticed Su Yao's gaze and signaled that she was fine, and Su Yao didn't ask.
Shen Jing said again: "Luo Mingcheng died in the Wolf Gang, if the matter is shaken out, Bai Wuya will not escape responsibility no matter what." And with us, not cooperating is also death. Since he claims to be the leader of the scholar's help, he will not be confused about the stakes.
Su Yao never felt that Shen Guo would be in danger, the two had known each other for so long, she knew Shen Jing's temperament. He is thoughtful, kind and decisive.
Hearing that Shen Guo already had a plan, Su Yao no longer thought about the follow-up.
After talking about important matters, Su Yao and Shen Jing were silent for a while.
After a while, Su Yao spoke, "Are you injured?" ”
Shen Jing shook his head and smiled: "It went even better than I thought, and I was not injured." ”
"Then since you're fine, I'll go back first, and the Lin family is also worried about you."
"Stay safe." Shen Jing looked at her and said slowly.
Before leaving, Su Yao still looked at Shen Jing and Lin Wanzhao curiously, and then couldn't help asking, "Are you okay?" ”
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.
When Shen Guo heard this, he just shook his head indifferently.
Lin Wanzhao, who had not spoken for a long time, didn't dare to look up at Su Yao again after hearing this, she lowered her head and twisted the skirt, her cheeks were red, and there was already a war between heaven and man in her mind.
The daughter's family is thin-skinned, and it would be too embarrassing for others to know about such a thing.
The two reacted, and Su Yao saw it in their eyes.
In fact, it was also because of Lin Wanzhao's initial strange reaction that she asked such a question, although she got an answer that she didn't know whether it was true or not, but it could be seen from Su Yao's reaction that there was something but the two of them didn't want to say.
She didn't intend to break the casserole to ask the end, she just smiled. Then he closed the door lightly, and the figure disappeared into the night in a flash.
After Su Yao left, Lin Wanzhao finally stopped being nervous.
She secretly raised her eyes to look at Shen Jing's reaction, Shen Jing seemed to see through her thoughts, and was looking at her with a smile at the moment. Lin Wanzhao was like being grabbed by a pigtail, and suddenly lowered her head.
Shen Guo walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said softly, "It's okay." ”
Hearing Shen Jing's comforting words, Lin Wanzhao also slowly raised her head and looked at him and said, "Did Miss Su see it?" ”
Shen Guo smiled: "There shouldn't be." ”
Regarding Su Yao's matter, Shen Kuang didn't elaborate, but just said her real name and the relationship between the two.
As a daughter's family, I know my daughter's thoughts best.
Lin Wanzhao felt that it was not surprising that Miss Su and Shen Jing had been separated all the way, even if they were secretly in love.
Although she didn't understand Su Yao's character, Su Yao's turn and blurted out the question had already shown that she had put Shen Jing in a different position.
Shen Guan sat down next to Lin Wanzhao, Lin Wanzhao leaned on his shoulder and said with a smile: "I see that Miss Su may like you." ”
Lin Wanzhao is two years older than Shen Jing, so in terms of title, he either calls Lang Jun affectionately, or calls him by his name.
When Shen heard this, he looked down at Lin Wanzhao in his arms and smiled: "Actually, I can feel it." ”
After Lin Wanzhao heard Shen Jing's words, she was not jealous. Lin Wanzhao knew that what happened between herself and Shen Jing was as sudden as he and Su Yao all the way.
"Then Langjun, do you also like Miss Su?"
"Want to hear the truth?"
Lin Wanzhao nodded.
"Miss Su, she is also a very good woman, except for Shi Yuzhi, she is the longest I have known her. We've been through so much that it's not true to say that we don't like it. It's just that we didn't say each other's thoughts all the way to escape. It's actually good to be like this at the moment. ”
"Then Miss Su will be unhappy to know about the matter between us?" Lin Wan looked at Shen Guan and asked.
Shen Jing smiled: "It should be!" It's up to you to tell her. ”
After Shen finished speaking, he saw Lin Wanzhao bowing his head and breaking his fingers.
"What's that?" Shen asked.
Lin Wanzhao smiled proudly: "I'm counting how many sisters I will have." Sister Shi Yu, a disciple of Uncle Han, is already one of them, and there are also Miss Su, Miss Jiang Ning, and Miss Nan Qiao from the General's Mansion. ”
Shen Guo smiled bitterly when he heard this, although what he thought in his heart was different from what Lin Wanzhao said, he didn't want to explain anything.
There were things he did right, and things he didn't do right.
He knew the reason in his heart, and he also knew that some wrong things were difficult to do better. There are only so many options, and it's either wrong or worse, and there is no better way to go.
"Why don't you explain, do you admit it so generously?" Lin Wanzhao saw that Shen Jing was silent, and said with a smile.
"I have some entanglements with them, and there will always be some feelings. But as for what will be like in the future, I don't know. ”
When it comes to feelings, Shen has never thought too much.
He doesn't have much experience in these things, and more often he follows his own ideas. How to choose and how to do it are all in his mind, it is not very good, but fortunately it is not wrong.
With Shi Yu, their final result was that Shen Qing didn't dare to think so far.
Yes, he didn't dare.
Just like now he doesn't dare to give Lin Wanzhao any guarantee, maybe one day he will die in the rivers and lakes. Rather than giving them hope that the end is shattered, it is better to say the worst from the beginning. If things go better, it will be happy.
Shen Kuang and Lin Wanzhao are both deliberately not mentioning the current situation, and this trace of warmth at the moment is not easy to come by, and no one wants to extinguish it first.
The two embraced each other like this until dawn.

Steward Lin Songfeng stood on the bow deck and paced alone all night, and after the moon passed the middle of the sky, his lonely back was constantly stretched. Mu Ran looked at it, there was still no one on the shore under the bright moon, and he sighed sadly in his heart.
Before leaving, the eldest lady had told him not to act rashly, if the group encountered difficulties in the wolf gang, the eldest lady would send Jiang Shaoxia back to inform him, so Lin Songfeng had been waiting for that figure.
The difficulties encountered on this waterway were unprecedented before, thanks to the presence of that Jiang Shaoxia.
Lin Songfeng sighed, but still hoped that everyone would be safe.
————
Early in the morning, two of Luo Mingcheng's men came down, and one of them slammed the door lightly, but did not get a response from his own adult, but it was the woman who opened his mouth.
This woman is said to be the eldest lady of a merchant family in Lingshan City, and she has a good appearance.
The woman told the two that they had just woken up, and told them to go and invite Bai Wuya, the leader of the Wolf Helper Gang, over. The two didn't say much, and after getting the order, they immediately resigned and went to invite Bai Wuya.
Shen Jing in the room has been paying attention to the movements of the two people outside the door, but fortunately, he is not suspicious.
After the two left, Shen Guan smiled and gave Lin Wanzhao a thumbs up. I have to say that Lin Wanzhao's expression is so calm that even he admires it a little.
After Lin Wanzhao saw Shen Jing's thumb, she smiled proudly.
Bai Wuya, who got up early in the morning, went straight to Luo Mingcheng's room without saying a word after receiving Luo Mingcheng's "order", and Bai Wuya exchanged a few words with Bai Wuya's two subordinates along the way.
The two also politely replied, they knew that their adults favored this gang leader, so they did it easily.
In the room, Shen Jing and Lin Wanzhao tidied up the room slightly, and the blood stains on the ground had been wiped and would not be visible as soon as they entered the room. Luo Mingcheng's corpse was dragged to the bed by Shen Jing, and there was basically no abnormality under the curtain.
Bai Wuya had been extremely happy since he had won Luo Mingcheng's conviction last night, so he basically didn't sleep last night. I came here this morning, and I was even more happy, and I felt that my little county order had been settled.
After Bai Wuya arrived at the courtyard where Luo Mingcheng was staying, the two subordinates did not follow in.
The neatly dressed Bai Wuya brushed the folds on his robe, and then walked slowly towards the door of the house with brisk steps.
