Chapter 12 [Falling into the Ground] (I)


The results are dismal, brothers, don’t forget to vote while reading.

It was already dusk when I carried Xie Qing on my back to Zhuji City.

On the surface, Zhuji City was no different from the past.

I was worried that people would find out that I teamed up with bandits to rob beautiful women and kill officers and soldiers, so I first Sit and wait far away from the city gate, and let Xie Qing go to the city gate to check out the specific situation.

It took Xie Qing a long time to return.

After all, the blood blisters on the soles of her feet were still not healed.

Every step she took became extremely difficult.

I approached her and said, "How are you doing?"

Xie Qing looked around and whispered: "Master, everything is the same as before.

There is no notice posted at the city gate."

I nodded and still felt a little uneasy.

I stopped an old man who was going home from the city after selling vegetables and said with a smile: "Old man, sell me your car."

The old man was slightly startled, blinked his cloudy eyes hard, pouted his white beard and said, "This car cost me a lot of effort."

I impatiently threw him a piece of broken gold.

The old man grabbed the gold, abandoned the cart and hurriedly walked out of the city.

The cart was only worth fifty copper coins at best.

He probably thought he had met a fool.

I helped Xie Qing get on the trolley, grabbed the bamboo hat on the trolley and put it on my head.

Then I pushed the trolley into the city in a swaggering manner.

I thought I could get by smoothly, but when I arrived in front of the city gate, I was caught.

The guard at the gate stopped and said, "Isn't this Mr.

Lu from Liuxiangyuan?

Why are you dressed like this?"

Two guards came up happily.

It seemed that Lu Xiaogui was still a well-known person in Zhuji City, and he still managed to hide it from the guards' eyes even though he was disguised.

I took off my bamboo hat and said with a smile: "Your eyes are indeed poisonous, and your vigilance is indeed outstanding.

It is really a blessing for the people of Zhuji City to have you two dedicated soldiers in Zhuji City.

The long-term stability of Zhuji City has been established."

On the basis of your hard work, comrades, you have worked hard."

I warmly stretched out my hand and shook hands with them one by one.

The two guards were confused by my sudden words.

It took them a while to realize that I was complimenting them, and they laughed and said, "This is what we should do."

One of the guards said: "Where has Mr.

Lu been?

Why is he pushing a broken cart?"

I thought quickly, pointed at Xie Qing and said, "The two of us made a bet to see if we could be recognized by you after dressing up.

Haha, it turned out that I didn't hide it from you."

When they heard about the bet, the two guards immediately became excited: "Young master, will you win or lose?"

I smiled bitterly and said, "I lost."

I took out a small piece of gold and stuffed it into the hand of one of the guards: "I'll give you two a drink.

Thank you for doing your duty for Zhuji City.

I'm so touched."

I pushed the cart towards the city again.

Encouraged by my words and money, the two guards stood straight in front of the door and inspected the passers-by with bright eyes.

Xie Qing and I did not go directly to Liuxiangyuan, but still returned to the house where we hid before.

Before I even entered the door, I heard Xie Ni's heartbreaking cry.

Xie Qing's eyes suddenly turned red.

I stopped the cart, knocked hard on the door and said, "Open the door, I'm back."

It was not Xie Qing who opened the door, but Zhou Fengdie who looked surprised.

When she saw my appearance, her smile quickly disappeared from her face: "Little turtle, you are driving me to death."

I smiled and helped Xie Qing out of the car.

Xie Qing was so close to me in front of everyone that she was too embarrassed to look up.

Zhou Fengdie said sharply: "Xie Qing, where did you take the young master?"

Xie Qing was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground.

I glanced at Zhou Fengdie with dissatisfaction and said to Xie Ni, who was standing behind her with two lines of crystal tears still hanging on her pretty face: "Xie Ni, Xie Qing's foot is injured, help her to rest first."

Xie Ni responded and hurriedly came over to pick up her sister.

Zhou Fengdie said angrily: "Xie Qing, you haven't answered my question yet."

Xie Qing's pretty face turned pale with fright.

I smiled lightly and said, "Aunt Zhou, Xie Qing is just my maid.

I'll tell you what happened."

Zhou Fengdie's eyes could only soften and she sighed: "Little turtle, I'm not talking about you.

Liuxiang Courtyard is in chaos now, but you are missing at this critical moment.

Can I not be impatient?"

I smiled and said: "Aunt Zhou, I left this day just because of the affairs of Liuxiangyuan."

Zhou Fengdie looked at me in surprise, stood up and closed the courtyard door, grabbed my hand and came to the room, nervously saying: "Little turtle, tell me honestly, what did you do with the one hundred taels of gold you took away?"

"I found the IOU left by Shi Gandang and handed it to her.

After Zhou Fengdie read the IOU, the expression on her face became more solemn: "You lent the gold to Shi Gan as a pawn."

I nodded.

Zhou Fengdie said: "Little turtle, do you know that there was a robbery incident at Xang Er Mountain yesterday?"

Of course I knew, because I was a direct participant in the robbery, but I pretended to be extremely surprised: "Who is so brave and dares to rob?"

Zhou Fengdie said: "Including more than fifty girls from our Liuxiang Academy, all disappeared during the robbery."

I was surprised at how well-informed she was and pretended to be angry: "Isn't there any response from the Zhuji City Guards?"

Zhou Fengdie sighed and said, "This is exactly what I want to say.

I have asked someone to find out.

In fact, there were only fifteen girls selected by General Fan.

They had quietly left Zhuji City two days ago.

I suspect that Wu Qi, the governor of Zhuji City, took advantage of this opportunity to make huge profits."

I patted Chang An angrily and said, "This bastard is so daring."

Maybe it was because I was flawless in my acting.

The doubts in Zhou Fengdie's eyes gradually disappeared, and she said softly: "Actually, I have known about Shi Gandang and Fu Cairong for a long time.

I was planning to report it to her when the boss comes back and help them both."

"I didn't expect him to borrow gold from you.

I'm really disappointed that Shi Gan took it seriously."

I said generously: "It's only a hundred taels of gold, forget it, let's treat it as all of them."

Zhou Fengdie said: "Little turtle, I'm afraid your thinking is too simple.

Shi Gandang's purpose of borrowing gold must be to rescue Fu Cairong.

He can't succeed with his own strength.

As far as I know, there is someone in Xang'er Mountain."

The bandit leader Zigao was His cousin, he is very likely to go to him for help.

The one hundred taels of gold are used to bribe the bandits."

Zhou Fengdie paused and whispered: "I dare to conclude that the robbers in Xang'er Mountain The matter must be related to Shi Gandang."

My heart was shocked.

I didn't expect Zhou Fengdie to analyze things step by step and to the point.

Such a calm mind and such meticulous thinking were definitely not like an ordinary hospital foreman.

I couldn't help but fall into deep thought about her true identity.

Zhou Fengdie thought I was frightened by her inference, so she comforted me softly: "Xiaogui, the matter has come to an end.

Since our people are gone, we have no choice but to accept the reality and wait until the boss comes back before making a decision."

I pretended to be indignant and said, "No, are we going to be tricked by that bastard Wu Qi for nothing?

I can't swallow this bad breath no matter what."

Zhou Fengdie said: "Everything is just speculation at the moment.

We have no concrete evidence.

The top priority is to find out where Shi Gandang is.

Another thing is who Wu Qi is making this deal with.

Little turtle, you can just take it as anything."

This has never happened before, so don’t spoil anything because of impulsiveness.”

I nodded.

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Chu Yaoyao's cold voice came from outside the door: "Is Aunt Zhou here?"

Zhou Fengdie opened the door.

I noticed that Chu Yaoyao was holding a piece of white cloth stained with blood in her hand.

I was startled and suddenly remembered that Chu Yaoyao must have checked Xie Qing's injuries and must have discovered the wound on her chest.

Wounded by an arrow, this time he came to report the matter to Zhou Fengdie.

I rushed forward in a hurry, grabbed Chu Yaoyao's delicate hand, and held the blood-stained white cloth in my palm.

Chu Yaoyao's clear and beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of anger.

I squeezed my eyes hard at her and said, "Aunt Zhou is very busy.

Tell me about anything."

I held Chu Yaoyao's soft and boneless little hand tightly, for fear that she would shake the whole thing off. come out.

Zhou Fengdie came over and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"

Chu Yaoyao glared at me fiercely and threw away my arm.

I noticed that she had hidden the bloody white cloth behind her and said softly: "Xie Ni asked me to ask you, do you want to eat here tonight?"

" I was secretly relieved.

Zhou Fengdie sighed and said: "The people at Liuxiangyuan are in panic.

How can I walk away?

Forget it, you can eat by yourselves.

I'll leave first."

She turned to me and said, "Little turtle, don't put your mind on those two little girls all day long.

Otherwise, I don't know what to say to your mother when she comes back."

I smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Aunt Zhou, I know what to do."

Zhou Fengdie said: "Your injury should have almost recovered.

Go back tomorrow.

With you there, you can at least help me share some things."
