Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Best Hunter
The three of them slowly returned to the courtyard rented by the Zeng family, and several bodyguards who did not participate in the operation stood guard in front of the front hall door. Cheng Liu walked into the hall door and found a rare line of mud marks on the floor of the front hall, he took a closer look, and his heart sank, that line of mud prints was a row of deer hoof marks. Cheng Liuxin thought to himself: "Could it be that the Zeng family really caught a deer?" Cheng Liu instructed Li Lang and the two to stay in the front hall, and he followed the hoof prints and went straight to Zeng Cuo's study. The row of hoof prints stretched all the way to Zeng's study.
"You stupid obstacle!" In the study, there was a thunderous jump. Presumably, Zeng Cuo was reprimanding the bodyguards who did not protect Zeng Confession, and out of caution for the deer, he quietly walked over. He was extremely quiet, but still rattling on the wooden floor of the attic.
Sure enough, someone inside shouted alertly, "Who is it?" Cheng Liu was shocked, it was Zeng Confession's voice.
Cheng Liu didn't have time to think about it, so he replied: "It's me, Cheng Liu." With that, he walked in, and saw that it was Zeng Cheng standing with his head down, and Zeng Cheng looked at Zeng Cheng with an angry face. Cheng Liu pretended to be happy and said, "Big brother, I heard the bodyguard say ......" He paused, and then said, "It's good that you're back!" ”
At this time, Zeng Cuo suddenly said angrily: "Who told you to stand up? After speaking, Zeng confessed and fell to his knees. It turned out that Zeng Xian Shicai had been kneeling for training, and when he saw someone coming, he stood up vigilantly. Zeng mistakenly glanced at Cheng Liu, who was covered in scars, his eyes were sharp, as if when they met for the first time, he asked Cheng Liu coldly: "Today's deer, you found it first?" That cold tone made Cheng Liu's heart flutter.
Cheng Liu trembled and said, "Yes, yes." "There are so many police officers in ambush today, obviously it is a trap. The deer was indeed discovered by himself, and it was inevitable that Zeng mistakenly suspected that he had led everyone into the trap. Fortunately, when patrolling, there was another bodyguard present, and that person was a close confidant of Zeng Confession, so he said: "There was another bodyguard present at that time, and he brought the eldest brother and them here." After he finished speaking, he regretted that Zeng Wrong did not blame himself for leading them into the trap, but he began to defend himself first.
Sure enough, Zeng Cuo sneered and said, "There are no three hundred taels of silver here." ”
Cheng Liuxin thought to himself, anyway, he had to be stubborn to the end, and he continued: "I saw those policemen take my eldest brother and others away, and I knew that we had fallen into a trap. You interrogated me like that, and you thought you were suspicious of me. ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "Who is that cripple in disguise?" "I was approaching with a wrong step.
Cheng Liudao: "I don't know." ”
Zeng confessed: "Didn't you chase a deer? How do you know there's a cripple at the scene? ”
Cheng Liudao: "The deer chased and lost, and I came back." ”
Zeng confessed: "When did you come back?" ”
Cheng Liu said: "That's the police are handcuffing you, if it weren't for those two bodyguards to stop me, I would have gone out to save you." ”
Zeng confessed: "Really? There seemed to be a little gratitude in his eyes.
Cheng Liu said: "If you don't believe me, you can ask the bodyguard." ”
Zeng confessed: "Then why did you come back so late? ”
Cheng Liu said: "I think, if we can't save my eldest brother, at least we have to find the deer, so we went to look for the deer again." ”
Zeng confessed that he was about to speak, but Zeng Cuo suddenly said: "Zeng confessed that you go out!" I have something to ask him. Zeng confessed and left, closed the door, and stood at the door waiting.
At this time, Zeng mistakenly took away a book on the bookshelf behind him, pressed a fingerprint button that was originally hidden under the book, and the two bookcases slowly opened to both sides, revealing a small door. Zeng mistakenly said, "Follow me." So he walked in first. Although Cheng Liu was apprehensive in his heart, in order to fulfill his promise to Wei Daochang and others, and for the sake of the normal way of heaven, even the Longtan Tiger's Den had to break through. He followed, through a dark passageway, to a secret room. There were several chairs in the chamber, and Zeng had sat down on one of them. After Zeng mistakenly waited for Cheng to stay in, he pointed to a chair opposite him and motioned for him to sit down as well. When Chengliu sat down, Zeng said by mistake: "Only the two of us can hear what is talking here, and any eavesdropping and communication equipment will fail." You tell me the truth. Who is the man who pretends to be lame? ”
Cheng Liudao: "I don't know. He was still pretending to be confused.
Zeng mistakenly said: "There are several loopholes in your words. First, I don't blame you for leading them into a trap, but you start to defend yourself. Second, you are a smart person, and when you saw Zeng Confession arrested, you knew that you couldn't save them, but you had to rush forward. You've put on too much of a show, and you can fool them, but you can't fool me. Third, since you already know that it is a trap, the two deer must be bait, so why do you want to look for them? ”
Cheng Liu listened to his analysis, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, he was smart but was mistaken by his cleverness. Sure enough, in front of Zeng Cuo, he couldn't say a lie. He thought that the matter had come to this point, and he couldn't quibble, so he had to settle the plan, so he said awe-inspiringly: "Well, it is indeed a trap I set. ”
Zeng Cuo looked at Chengliu without surprise and motioned for him to continue. Cheng Liu continued: "If he didn't put a clip in the mountain, I wouldn't have made such a decision, the animals in Nanyue are all spiritual, and it's not good to hurt anyone." ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "This is not your real reason. ”
Cheng Liudao: "He is too flamboyant, I don't like it." ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "It's still not right." ”
Chengliu hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to get rid of him and take the treasure alone." ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "You are not a greedy man for money, and you have no treasure, which I taught him to use to deceive you when the matter is revealed." ”
Chengliu pretended to be surprised: "Huh? Then why are you killing deer? ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "Kill a deer? I didn't ask for that! ”
Cheng Liudao: "It seems that the eldest brother is not very loyal to you. He almost killed the deer today. ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "You know, that deer is not what I want." ”
Cheng Liudao: "But according to his approach, even if you find the one you want, he won't leave you alive." ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "As you wish, he has lost the opportunity to find deer." He will be back to Beijing tomorrow. When it comes to loyalty, you don't seem to want to do even superficial work. ”
Cheng Liudao: "You are wrong, he doesn't leave, how can I behave." You should be able to see that I fell in love with Liu Nan, but he criticized me to Sister Regret, and we were separated in advance. ”
Zeng Cuo smiled and said, "It seems to be on the point." But you are separated by generations. ”
Cheng Liudao: "That's just a fake generational relationship. Drive the eldest brother away, and I will have the opportunity to behave in front of you, and only after making meritorious contributions can I ask for your permission. ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "I can arrange for other people to accept the deer hunting." ”
Cheng Liu smiled and said: "It's not big brother, I have no scruples, I believe they won't stay long." ”
Zeng Cuo smiled and said, "Are you threatening me?" ”
Cheng Liudao: "Don't dare! You think I'm my godson because I'm cleaner and smarter than the others. ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "But your strategy is full of loopholes." ”
Chengliu also smiled and said, "But both of my goals should be able to be achieved." His mind raced.
Zeng mistakenly said: "Kick Zeng out of Nanyue, what else?" ”
Cheng Liudao: "Also, leave a flaw to let you know that these traps were set by me, and you won't ask others to do it again, because it's all in vain." ”
Zeng Mistake couldn't help but be a little impressed by the wisdom of Cheng Liu, the other party actually took advantage of his suspicion, and thought that his choice was completely correct, these Cheng family members were simply pawns gifted to him by God to go invincible. Although he was happy in his heart, he said: "You are not afraid of angering me, I can easily make you disappear from this world." ”
Cheng Liuqiang pretended to be calm and said: "I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid that you don't agree that I will be with Liu Nan." He is the only light in my life. I'm sure you won't do that. ”
Zeng mistakenly said: "Why? ”
Cheng Liudao: "Because you are smarter than me, you will not give up the optimal solution." ”
Speaking of this, Zeng Cuo nodded, no longer entangled in this issue, and directly regarded Chengliu as the main candidate for Xunlu. He also told Cheng Liu that the deer he was looking for was the legendary divine deer, and some of the insiders, which were no different from the business of the Sunshine Group that Aunt Mei said, but the statement that the Shenlu could develop elixirs was changed to the Shenlu gene that could slow down aging, and the Sunshine Group had made profits by developing related drugs. What he said by mistake was also something on the table, and of course he didn't mention anything about the real behind-the-scenes conspiracy. Zeng Cuo also said the reason why Zeng Confession was released, that is, after receiving the report of the bodyguard at the time of the incident, he immediately made a phone call to Beijing, and in less than half an hour, Zeng Confession was sent back respectfully, and the responsibility will be completely shifted to Lao Yao and others.
In the end, Zeng said wrongly: "As long as you find the deer for me, I will send you to the United States to go to college, at that time, as long as Liu Nan and you are in love, I guarantee that Zeng regrets not daring to be embarrassed." ”
By mistake, Chengliu can be regarded as a fool, and he was even more overjoyed when he heard the promise he had wronged. In the days that followed, he studied harder, and the days of pretending to look for deer on the mountains became more frequent.
