Chapter Eighty-One: Shocking Treacherous Schemes
At this moment, Cao Lu hurried over, panting and puffing: "Here, that scar-faced skin is really here, he has already entered the city and is coming this way, I guess it will not be long before I arrive."
Wei Qing had always thought that Li Rui's trip would not be very dangerous, but at this moment, for some reason, he suddenly muttered and hesitated in his heart, and just when Li Rui turned around and wanted to leave, he couldn't help but suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Li Rui and said, "It's better to ...... It's better to leave it at that, I think...... I think it's still dangerous."
"Brother Wei doesn't have to worry too much, it'll be fine", Li Rui smiled at Wei Qingyanran, and raised the whistle in his hand as he walked out, "If there is something, I will whistle, I believe you will be able to arrive in time to save me."
Wei Qing looked at Li Rui's back, he was speechless for a while, he only felt that his whole heart was suddenly empty, and he felt a little uneasy, turned around and looked, Cao Lu was stunned, but Liao Lingping glared at himself fiercely, and said: "It was you who said that it was not dangerous before, and now it is you who say that it is dangerous, and when it is interrupted, I think everyone will be dragged down by you sooner or later."
Wei Qing looked at Li Rui and walked to the door of Yongxin Commercial Bank, and immediately a guy came out of the store to talk to her, so far away that he couldn't hear the sound, he could only see the guy shaking his head vigorously and saying something, as if he didn't plan to let Li Rui in, Li Rui made a look of anger and argued with the guy.
However, after a while, there was the sound of a car wheeling in the distance, and I saw a group of people and horses coming out of the street, it was Pivan with more than a dozen people, driving three carriages towards this side, the guy saw it and waved impatiently to urge Li Rui to leave quickly, but at this time, he saw Zhuergen, who was dressed as a shopkeeper, walked out of the store.
The guy saw Zhuergen come out, and hurriedly pointed to Li Rui and said something to him, Zhuergen kept staring at Li Rui up and down when he listened to him, and after the guy finished speaking, he pondered for a while, and then ordered the guy to rebuke him after a few words, stretched out his hand to make a gesture to welcome the customer, and motioned Li Rui to enter the store to talk, Li Rui didn't look at Zhuergen, his face was full of anger, and he didn't forget to scold the guy from afar, and then walked straight into the store with his head held high.
On the other side, Pi Wan also walked to the door of Yongxin Commercial Bank, and the shopkeeper who had been impatient with Li Rui before seemed to be a different person at this time, and diligently helped Pi Wan to cage the horse's head, and led him all the way into the room.
Wei Qing hid in the dark of the corner and watched Pi Wan also enter the store, and couldn't help but clench his fists and hold the hilt of the Zhanlu sword at his waist, praying in his heart that Li Rui was all right inside, and that he would not have to blow a whistle to ask for help, and on the other hand, he was ready to leap with his legs, for fear that he would not be able to rush over immediately when the whistle sounded.
"What are you thinking, are you worried about Sister Rui", Liao Lingping suddenly reached out and patted the back of Wei Qing's head, stared at him with a wink, and said, "If I go in this time, will you be so worried?"
Wei Qing was asked about the matter, his face immediately flushed, and he hurriedly turned his head to prevent Liao Lingping from seeing it, and said in a low voice: "Rui'er, she doesn't know martial arts, and you are different from her, you can summon a lot of rats and ants with a flute, it's good not to go to other people's troubles, who dares to provoke you if you have nothing to do, what is there to worry about."
"Hmph, I know you're biased", Liao Lingping pinched Wei Qing fiercely from behind, and then sighed lightly and said, "Alas, my mother also advised me not to learn martial arts before, she said that it would be good for her daughter's family to learn some needlework, if she is too strong, it will not be beautiful, and it will not be good to marry in the future."
"Who said that it's good for the girl's family to know martial arts", Wei Qing replied casually without thinking, "I think you can help me a lot, if anyone can marry you, wouldn't the two of them live happily together."
Liao Lingping's face flushed, and she said lightly: "What nonsense, I still ...... I didn't plan to get married so soon."
The two of them had their own thoughts, and immediately stopped talking, quietly watching the movements of Yongxin Firm, and only after a long time did they see Li Rui walking out of it, she didn't look at the location where Wei Qing was hiding, and went straight down the street to the inn where she lived, and Wei Qing and the three stayed in the dark for a while, and only after making sure that no one was following them, did they quietly get up and detour back.
As soon as he entered the inn room, Wei Qing hurriedly asked Li Rui, "Rui'er, nothing happened, are you okay?"
"It's okay, thank you Brother Wei for your concern", Li Rui replied with a smile, "That Zhuergen doesn't recognize me, why do you want to hurt me for no reason, I am a big customer who comes to him to buy goods on the surface."
Wei Qing's hanging heart was relieved at this time, but he heard Li Rui speak again: "Zhuergen probably saw that I was a daughter's family, and he didn't seem to be too wary, so he just talked to me casually, and then called another guy to entertain me to see the goods, but he went to talk to Piwan himself."
When Wei Qing heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Have you heard them say anything important?"
Li Rui smiled lightly and said: "They deliberately lowered their voices when they spoke, but I had the intention to eavesdrop, and deliberately got closer by looking at the goods, and I heard that Zhuergen had already said to Piwan that a batch of goods would be shipped to Haozhou tomorrow, and Pei Guanren was also asked to personally hand over it in the middle of the road, and Zhuergen would also take people to go all the way with Piwan this time, as for what it was, I don't know."
"Damn, they must be going to cooperate with the inside and the outside, ambush and kill Pei Guanren", Wei Qing hammered the table with a heavy fist, gritted his teeth with hatred, "No, we have to inform Pei Guanren of this matter as soon as possible, lest he fall for the enemy's tricks."
Everyone felt that it was not too late, they had to hurry up and rush to inform Pei Jun, when even if they packed their luggage and prepared to set off to return to Chuzhou, fortunately, since the other party had to transport goods in a carriage, they could only walk along the official road, but they didn't have to worry about missing Pei Jun on the road, but Li Rui's pace was slow, and he was afraid that he couldn't keep up with the pace of the rest of the people, Wei Qing was worried that he would miss the time, so he left Cao Lu to escort her slowly, preparing to take the lead by himself and Liao Lingping.
Wei Qing packed his luggage and was about to leave the inn, Li Rui suddenly stopped him, Wei Qing turned around and asked her what was the matter, but saw her frowning, as if she was reminiscing about something in her heart, and after a while, Ai Ai said: "I thought back to the Yongxin business house again, and suddenly remembered something, and felt a little strange."
Wei Qing hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
"Maybe it's because I'm too careful", Li Rui still frowned, "I always felt that Zhuergen's gaze was very strange when he first saw me, it felt like he had seen me before, but after I thought about it, I really shouldn't have met him before."
