Bai Xing was speechless, but his face was unhappy, and he threw his hand to hit Shen Cuttlefish's head, but he dodged it. Shen cuttlefish pursed his mouth and said: "You only know how to act chivalrous and righteous, and you squander money, but you don't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive, and you are used to being the eldest lady, how can it be that this is difficult in the rivers and lakes? Kong Zhongni knows the righteousness and knows that saving people should be rewarded, as the so-called penny is difficult to defeat heroes, if all the heroes in the world are like you, then they would have starved to death!"

Bai Xing was speechless with tears, so he had to turn around angrily and return to the side room, Leng Qizhu said with a smile: "It's still Shen Gongzi who is well versed in human feelings. Shen Cuttlefish leaned in front of him again and asked in a whisper: "Then Leng Gongzi still has to charge me for borrowing?" Leng Qizhu smiled and waved his hand, Shen Cuttlefish breathed a long sigh of relief, and replied with a smile: "In this way, thank you Leng Gongzi." You don't know, we have been out of Anhuai Mansion, we don't dare to live in a hotel or hire a car along the way, and we are penniless, so we are about to beg along the road. Thanks to Leng Gongzi's entanglements, we can live more comfortably in the future. ”

Leng Qizhu said: "Small things, small things, when I get married the day after tomorrow, I hope you will have a lot of support." Shen cuttlefish scratched his head and smiled: "That's nature." Leng Qizhu was about to turn around, but was stopped by Shen Cuttlefish, only to see him lower his voice and ask: "Doesn't Gongzi Leng want to find out about the fact that Qiu Yunlu sent black and white guards to assassinate you? ”

Who knew that Leng Qizhu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said with a dry laugh: "It's okay, it's okay, presumably Qiu Yunlu doesn't dare to plot with me in broad daylight with the Qiu family, and the black and white guards are dead, so this matter should not have happened." Shen Gongzi, please take a break here, I still have some things to do, and I will leave. With that, he shut himself up in the house again.

Shen Cuttlefish always felt that Leng Qizhu was a little strange, but he couldn't notice what was wrong, so he didn't think about it anymore. Thinking that he had a coil, and then looked at the gray monk's robe that he had worn for many days and had long been torn, he thought about going into the city to buy a suit, so he called Bai Xingxian and others to accompany him. Bai Xingxian didn't want to go with him, he couldn't stand his soft grinding and hard foam, but he still agreed hard, just to seek a quiet ear.

Let's say that the four of them entered the city, in addition to the Mingjue who brought his own bags, even Pei Jingnian, who has never paid attention to dressing up, also bought two sets of clothes, and the four of them had a full meal in the restaurant in the city, eating and drinking, just waiting for the day after tomorrow to eat the happy wine of the Leng family. This trip only cost five taels of silver, and Shen Cuttlefish put away the silver ticket again, so as not to be snatched away by Bai Xing's tears again.

And at this time in the Qiu Mansion, Qiu Yunlu wandered and paced in the hall alone, the black and white guards went to the Leng family and disappeared again, there was no news, he also sent someone to pretend to be a common person to go outside the Leng family to investigate, but there was no trace of the black and white guards, Leng Qizhu and others were also alive and well, how could this make him not anxious. "Could it be that the black and white guards have been killed by Leng Qizhu and them?" Qiu Yunlu couldn't help but be suspicious.

The henchman beside him stepped forward and said, "Don't be anxious, the old butler, there may be something important to delay." With the experience and martial arts of the two of them, it should be more than enough to deal with a few hairy boys. Qiu Yunlu slapped the table next to him and ordered: "No! At this time, nothing can go wrong! You immediately send someone to investigate, and you must find out the whereabouts of the black and white guards, you must see people alive, and corpses when you die!"

The subordinates took the order and went to search everywhere, and finally found an extremely soft, newly dug land more than 30 zhang outside Leng's house, dug it up and checked, and sure enough, they found the corpses of the black and white guards, both of them were killed by swordsmen, and there were fatal sword wounds on their bodies, and the corpses were already stiff and iron-blue, and the subordinates should not be lazy, so they hurriedly wrapped them in rags, for fear of being seen as corpses, and quietly transported them back to Qiu's house in the night, and placed them in front of Qiu Yunlu's eyes.

Seeing this, Qiu Yunlu frowned, his beard trembled, he retreated again and again, hit the chair, and as soon as his legs were weak, he sat down at the table. Looking at the corpse of the black and white guard, he was speechless for a long time. The henchman stepped forward again and hurriedly asked, "Old housekeeper, how should this be?" Do you want to tell the master truthfully?" Qiu Yunlu hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "No, don't tell Master Yu about this matter for the time being, wait for me to think about some countermeasures." ”

After saying that, he got up and paced, thinking for a long time, before he ordered: "You immediately dispose of the corpses of the black and white guards, you must not know, ghosts are unaware, your hands and feet are neat, and you must not leave any traces, I want the black and white guards to evaporate, and no one knows their whereabouts anymore!"

The henchman nodded again and again, and after listening to it, he went to arrange for his subordinates to do it, but as soon as he walked out of the door, he was called back by Qiu Yunlu with a solemn face. The man asked, "What else does the old butler command?" "You can call a few more reliable henchmen, and when the subordinates who handle the corpses have finished their work, they will ......" With that, he pressed his palm downwards and made a killing gesture, and the henchman understood his intentions, nodded, and walked away.

After the end of the night, it was the most gloomy moment of the night, Bai Wushou and Cen Du, who were temporarily living in Qiu Mansion, had not yet gone to bed, the two sat in the room to discuss the future arrangements, Bai Wushou suddenly felt that his abdomen was turning over the river and the sea, and he was about to go out of Gong, and he didn't want to vaguely see four or five family members digging and burying something outside the thatched house, but the night was thick and couldn't see it really. Out of caution, he crouched down and continued to spy on the situation.

I saw a few family members walking not far away, and I could vaguely hear their conversation. The newcomer glanced at the diggers and asked, "Everyone is here?" The digger nodded and said, "Back to Governor Li, it's all here." The person known as Governor Li was Qiu Yunlu's henchman, and when he heard this, he asked, "Everything has been moved?"

"Returning to the superintendent, we chopped up the corpse into several pieces, and then incinerated them separately, burned them to ashes, and buried them next to this latrine, just to hide the smell, but we really didn't know it. The man replied with a grin, and he only thought that it was beneficial for him to do things, and he was waiting to receive the reward, but he did not know that a great disaster was coming. Governor Li was overjoyed when he heard this, stroked his beard and smiled: "Well, yes, good job." Wait for the reward. With that, he stepped aside.

The four guards behind Li Duguan stepped forward, and their right hands each fell on the long knife hanging from their waists, only to see a flash of cold light, and the four buried family members fell to the ground and died, and one of them was stunned when he saw this, and when he came back to his senses, he trembled, turned around and was about to run away, and before he could shout, he was grabbed by the back of the neck, and mentioned in front of him, and another knife passed through the chest, and he was already out of breath when he arrived. Draw the bloody knife, wipe the blade with the clothes of the dead family, and then put the knife into the sheath.

Governor Li nodded with satisfaction, and then instructed the four of them: "You have done a good job, dispose of their corpses together, and come to my residence to give orders, and you will have your own reward." With that, he brushed his sleeves away, leaving only the guards on all sides to dispose of the corpse. Seeing this scene, Bai Wushou couldn't help but shudder, although he was also murderous, and hurriedly ran back to the wing room to find Cen Du.

Cen Du was drinking tea in the room, and saw Bai Wushou panting and sweating profusely running back to the room to close the door, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't you go to Gong, why are you so anxious?" Bai Wushou came to him and said anxiously: "Big brother, I don't think this Qiu family can get along!" "Why do you say that?" Cen Duan took a sip of tea and asked.

Bai Wushou then informed Cen Du of the scene he had just seen, who knew that he was very calm, and said lightly: "What about this?" Bai Wushou hurriedly explained: "Big brother, they can even do this to their own family? What if it is not good for us......"

"If Qiu Tianqiu wanted to be unfavorable to the two of us, he would have done it a long time ago, so why wait until today. In the past few days, there have been so many opportunities, how could he not know? Besides, Qiu Tian's enmity is my old friend, and he has never had an enmity, so what is the motive for it? In my opinion, this is just their Qiu family's own family matter, and we can't interfere with it, so you just don't see it. Cen said calmly.

But Bai Wushou sat beside him, was silent for a moment, turned his head and sighed and said: "I'm still a little relieved, I always feel frightened in the Qiu Mansion these days, and the feeling of uneasiness arises spontaneously, I have a hunch that something big will happen in these days." Seeing that he was restless, Cen Du chuckled and said, "I didn't plan to borrow the Qiu family for a long time. In this case, I will leave Qiu's house the day after tomorrow and continue south. ”

"Why wait until the day after tomorrow?" Bai Wushou was puzzled. Cen Du explained: "After all, Qiu Tianqiu and I are old friends, and we still have some friendship, otherwise he would not have been able to take us in for a few days, waiting for good food and accommodation." His only daughter is about to get married, so how can I, as an uncle, be absent? As soon as his daughter's wedding ceremony was over, we packed our bags and prepared to leave the Yanzhou Mansion. ”

Bai Wushou was a little relieved, the two chatted for a while, Bai Wushou returned to his room to rest, and Cen Dusk went to sleep peacefully.

It wasn't until a moment later on the second day that Qiu Tianqiu got up to freshen up, Qiu Yunlu served as usual, Qiu Tianqiu rubbed his eyes and waved his hands and said, "Yunlu, I thought about it all night last night, and I still feel that your previous proposal was a little inappropriate. Qiu Yunlu pretended not to know, and hurriedly asked: "The old slave is stupid, I don't know what the old man is talking about......"

"The assassination of Leng Qizhu is over. Qiu Tianqiu sat in the inner hall, pondered for a moment, and then said, "All the blame for the wrong things I did back then should be borne by me. Hugh said that he was frightened, even if the child who abandoned the pearl asked me for revenge, it was also my deserved. How can I harm this pair of hard-working mandarin ducks because of my selfishness, and even more so the life of the child who abandoned the pearl!"

Qiu Yunlu broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, his eyes were flustered, and he stood aside, thinking that it was fortunate that the black and white guards did not succeed, otherwise this crime would be borne by him, and hurriedly echoed: "What the master said is extremely true, what he said is extremely true." ”
