Chapter 42 Two foxes sing the green willow

The leader of the three was an old man with crane hair, and behind him were two men, one junior and one junior.

When the servants guarding outside the cell where Wang Yimiao was, they immediately bowed and quickly opened the door of the cell.

After the three of them walked into the cell, they saw Wang Yimiao who had fainted. The old man with crane hair immediately turned his head and said to the hideous middle-aged man beside him, "Go Ren, wake him up."

The middle-aged man named Qi Guoren immediately nodded his head and took the order, then quickly walked to Wang Yimao, picked up a bucket of water that was placed aside, and poured it directly on Wang Yimao's face.

Wang Yimiao woke up immediately and opened his tired eyelids. There was a vertical water curtain in front of him. In the blink of an eye, the water curtain was almost exhausted and turned into a few drops of water that disturbed his cheeks from time to time. He saw the situation in front of him through the water drops.

It was a cell covered with various torture instruments on all sides. There were still many unwiped blood stains on the floor, and there was a foul smell of evil and odor floating in the whole room.

In front of him was a ferocious middle-aged man, and behind the middle-aged man was an old man with crane hair. Next to the old man with crane hair was a young man. He recognized the other person at first sight, which was Qi Hengyi.

After seeing Wang Yimiao wake up, the vicious middle-aged man immediately stepped back and exposed the old man with crane hair in front of Wang Yimiao.

The old man with a crane smiled and said, "Your name is Wang Wang, right? He has been a young man since ancient times. I didn't expect that a young man with a first-level cultivation would dare to rob the Luo family. It is rare to have this courage."

"You Qi family are helping the Luo family deal with me, right?" Wang Yimiao said fearlessly.

"Our Qi family will never help the Luo family, don't talk nonsense." Qi Hengyi suddenly said angrily.

"Why did you want to catch me if you don't help the Luo family?"

Just as Qi Hengyi was about to speak, the old man with crane raised his hand to signal him to shut his mouth.

The old man with a crane smiled and said, "Young people are impulsive."

No one can figure out whether his words are talking about Qi Hengyi or Wang Yimiao.

The old man with crane hair immediately said, "Of course we catch you for our family."

"I admit that I used your Qi family when dealing with the Luo family, but I have not done anything that would harm your Qi family's interests. What reason do you Qi family come to capture me?"

"If you want a reason, it is enough to just use our Qijia." The old man with crane hair said lightly.

Wang Yimiao was stunned. Facing a powerful person who could deal with his own power with false charges, he had nothing to say. In the face of power, he had no place to reason.

After a while, the old man with a crane paused, he admitted frankly: "Sometimes the reason why our Qi Mansion caught people was not that the person had harmed the interests of my family, but that person might have benefited the interests of my family."

Wang Yimiao instantly understood which kind he belonged to, and immediately asked angrily: "Doesn't the person who benefits your family be invited back from the eighth-carriage sedan chair? How can I catch it directly?"

"But you were going to run away at that time!"

"Why wouldn't I escape from Fengdao City if I offended the Luo family?"

"But in the end you saw my Qi family's people running away." The old man with crane hair seemed to make sense no matter how he said it.

"You Qi's family is so fiercely chasing you, can I not be scared away?"

"You were scared away by being guilty, right?"

"What do I have to be guilty about your Qi family?" Wang Yimiao felt guilty when she said this, so she changed her words and said, "Then I won't run away now, can you let me go?"

He is now suffering from a split headache, feeling so uncomfortable, and his body is exhausted, his hands and feet, locked by his shackles, are almost completely intuition.

"If you want me to let you go, you have to answer my question first."

"What's the problem?" At this time, Wang Yimiao was anxious and did not notice the other party's old fox's trick.

"Did you inform our Qi family before?"

"No." Wang Yimiao immediately refused to admit it.

The old man with crane smiled and said, "Young man, lying is not a good habit. In fact, you don't need to ask me, you know that you informed our Qi family before."

"It's not me?" Wang Yimiao refused to admit it. He knew that there was nothing good after admitting it.

"It's quite similar. Do you know why we can send someone to catch you so quickly?"

This question is indeed something that Wang Yimiao has been unable to understand, but Wang Yimiao once again didn't understand why the old man with crane suddenly asked this question. Could it be that it was related to the person who exposed him as the one who informed the Qi family?

The old man with crane hair continued without waiting for Wang Yimiao to answer, "Since you informed me of Qi's family that Luo Mingfu was going to trade a purple butterfly grass on Caomu Street, I suspected that you had reported us a fake letter. Although the purple butterfly grass can indeed help people in spiritual school cultivation to advance steadily when breaking through the bottleneck, the entire Fengdao City is my world. My husband's eyes are all over the city. Someone brought an extremely precious purple butterfly grass from under my nose into Fengdao City, but I couldn't receive any news. I thought it was impossible no matter how I thought it was."

Wang Yimiao suddenly felt regretful. He deliberately said that Luo Mingfu wanted to trade a purple butterfly grass to put a larger bait to ensure that the fish would definitely take the bait, but he never thought that this would become his own flaw.

"The contents of the information you informed me about Qi's family before were true, just to report this fake letter, right?"

Wang Yimiao didn't expect that the old man with crane hair would guess so accurately, and he could see through his little thoughts at a glance.

"Although I suspect it was a fake letter, I still hired a group of people from outside to arrange them in the grass and wood street as you expected.

"On the other hand, I am wondering why you chose the Grape Street. What I thought of at first was that the Grape Street was particularly secluded at night, and secluded places were suitable for doing all kinds of bad things, such as killing people.

"Then I was thinking again, what should I do if I wanted to lead my Qi family to a secluded place? I don't think anyone would kill my Qi family in order to deceive and kill my Qi family after telling me the Qi family many secrets. And you can't be sure who my Qi family will send over, so I guess you are not going to deal with my Qi family, but just to use the Qi family's knife to kill people, and let my Qi family take the blame for you.

"But I can see at a glance that the Luo family is the one you are dealing with, and I am willing to see this, so this is why I will send someone to cooperate with you even though I know it is a fake letter. But I am asking for an outsider, so I won't take the blame for this."

The old man with crane did not say that another reason why he sent someone to Caomu Street was because he was afraid that his guess would be too much, so he sent someone to do it as a backup plan in case something really happened.

But he wouldn't tell Wang Yimiao about this kind of thing. He still conveyed his reasoning one by one like a detective who solved the case.

"But I was thinking again, there were so many secluded places in Fengdao City at night, why did I choose Caomu Street? Was it a random choice? I think a person who set up a plan to deal with the Luo family as a chess piece will inevitably think carefully about all details and will not do such random things, so there must be a reason to choose Caomu Street.

"Is it to fulfill the lies in the false letter? It seems a bit possible to trade a purple butterfly grass in Caomu Street, which specializes in selling herbs, but can't such a transaction be made elsewhere? This kind of speculation is far-fetched no matter how you think about it, it's not much different from random choices.

"I have been thinking about it all over the place, but in the end I guess it was because Caomu Street was close to a certain place? After all, you can think of the distance when you mention the location, and Caomu Street is the only place nearby in the area where you will have the habit of closing your house at night.

"Because the distance is close, there are many excuses to lead people there, and then borrow the knife of the Qi family to kill people. No, it should be more accurate, to delay the person being attracted, and then you can enjoy the benefits behind it.

"So I sent someone to stare at the three halls closest to Caomu Street under the Luo family, and also sent someone to stare at Luo Mansion.

"As a result, at night, the Luo Mansion suddenly caught fire everywhere. As soon as I arranged for the people I followed to report this matter, I knew that the person who reported the fake letter to my Qi family would take action, so I arranged for the person who was preparing to capture the person who tried to use my Qi family at any time."

Wang Yimiao complained in her heart: "One old fox! As expected, ginger is still so spicy."

The old man with a crane hair suddenly looked at Wang Yimiao with a smile and said, "In the end, you jumped out and robbed a hall of the Luo family. This hall is one of the three halls closest to Caomu Street under the name of the Luo family. At the same time, the only storm you caused in the entire Fengdao City tonight. Don't you admit that you are the one who informed me of the Qi family? I think there is no such coincidence in the world, right?"

The old man with crane hair seemed to be in control of the overall situation, but in the end he still miscalculated. He did not expect a group of robbers on the way Wang Yimiao ran away. After Wang Yimiao met those robbers, he no longer ran away according to the route he thought, so in the end, Wang Yimiao ran out of the city and almost couldn't catch it.

After listening to the analysis of the old man with crane hair, Wang Yimiao knew that it would be useless to deny it anymore. She immediately changed her face and said with a smile: "The old man is indeed wise. Even those military advisors who plan strategies are not one ten thousandth of that of the old man. The young man admires it!"

"Exceeded!"

"Then I admit it now, can I let me go?"

"Sorry, it's too late. But I do appreciate your wisdom. If I weren't there, I'd probably have successfully escaped from Fengdao City after I succeeded. But I'm much older than you and almost made you miss it. I'm not as smart as you at your age."

"You are useless to praise me, you are a low-key person. You are the one who lets me go." Wang Yimiao held back the headache and looked at the old man with a sincere heart.

"You are indeed low-key, so smart but you don't even want to show your true face. Are you afraid that others will feel ashamed of yourself after witnessing your true face?"

Wang Yimiao was shocked: "He can see through my disguise!"

"Isn't this his real face?" Qi Hengyi and Qi Guoren were also shocked. They could not see that Wang Yimiao had disguised himself, especially when Qi Guoren just now splashed Wang Yimiao's face with water, but there was no clue.

"His disguise skills are indeed very good. Your cultivation is not enough, so naturally I can't see through his disguise." The old man with crane hair explained.

This is actually not how clever Wang Yimiao’s disguise skills are, but Mu Qing’s disguise skills are really clever. The disguise on his face is all Mu Qing’s masterpieces.

Mu Qing made sufficient preparations to run away from home. She was proficient in all kinds of side-minded traits related to sneaking. Even Ling Zhu, who was determined to escape when he was a proton in the Red Moon Empire, felt ashamed of himself.

During the period when Wang Yimiao was with Mu Qing, he learned some disguise skills with her, but so far his level is only half that of Mu Qing.

Wang Yimiao immediately sent a message to Ling Yu: "Your Highness, what kind of cultivation is this old man? How could he see through my disguise so quickly?"

However, Zero Tsubasa had no reply at all, exactly the same as the last time he suddenly fell into enlightenment, and his whole body seemed to have disappeared.

"Let me see what a smart person looks like, Guo Ren, go and remove the disguise on his face."

Wang Yimiao was suddenly nervous: "Old sir, isn't it good for us to maintain a little mystery?"

The old man with crane hair ignored him at all.

Qi Guoren immediately stepped forward and whispered back and forth on Wang Yimiao's face. After a while, he finally tore off all the fake skin on Wang Yimiao's face, and Wang Yimiao's true appearance was completely exposed to the three of them.

"A pretty handsome young man." The old man with crane sighed.

"Old sir, I love hearing what you said. Can you let me sit down and have a good chat?" Wang Yimiao heard someone praise him for being handsome. Even if his head hurts or dizziness, he would look like a hippie smile.

"No hurry, it's good for us to chat like this. I'll ask you a few questions and answer them truthfully. I can consider whether to let you go at your discretion."

"I'm so dizzy now and feel uncomfortable. Maybe I can't remember the answer to the questions you asked. Why don't you cure my illness before asking me?"

"I think you have a clear idea, so you don't need to treat the disease first."

"Old sir, I think I can save it for a little more, and my thinking will be clearer."

"You honestly answer my question. If your answer satisfies me, I can still help you treat your illness." The old man with crane no longer argued with Wang Yimiao and asked directly, "About the biggest secret of Luo Mansion, what is that old guy Luoganghu doing in seclusion? You haven't explained it clearly in the letter last time."

Luoganghu is the Supreme Elder of the Luo family who is in seclusion.

Wang Yimiao was surprised and said to himself: "They didn't ask me where Mu Qing was? It seems that the Qi family doesn't even look down on the things I robbed."

Wang Yimiao calmed down the surprise in her heart, showed a mocking look on her face, and said, "Haha, it turns out that you think this is the biggest secret of the Luo family? You are too ignorant of the Luo family."
