Yun Zhi listened in the mist. He didn't know Hou Qingbai's manor, let alone the big tree. He didn't understand why Li Tian suddenly seemed to have an enlightenment.
Seeing his confusion, Li Tian found that it was difficult for him to explain everything. After all, what he knew about what happened was something that others could not understand.
"It's hard to explain. Anyway, now there is evidence to arrest Hou Qing. We just need to hurry up. If he runs away, it will be in vain."
According to his understanding, he knew that Hou Qingbai was in a hurry to leave Pingan Town. If it were too late, he might have gone to the ends of the earth.
Yun Zhi was still curious, but he didn't ask too much. He believed that since Li Tian was sure, he should be completely sure.
"Then what should we do? Directly notify the law enforcement team to arrest him?"
It is most convenient to arrest through the Lingyun City law enforcement team. After all, they are present in every town in Lingyun City. On their own, they are not qualified to confront Hou Qingbai.
But Li Tian hesitated for a moment and then shook his head.
"Let us inform the college first. It is not our task to arrest people. We only need to have evidence to prove that Hou Qingbai killed someone. Let the college handle the rest."
Yun Zhi nodded and agreed with his idea.
"That's right. We can't interfere any more in this matter. Then we can directly contact the college's contact person in Ping'an Town and ask them to notify the college. We will wait for the result."
"Let's talk tomorrow. It's too late now. You can go to bed and rest. I have an injury on my shoulder, so I will sit here at night."
Li Tian replied.
No matter how anxious you are, there is no need to rush for such a moment. They are injured and exhausted tonight. If there is anything, they should wait until the next morning to do it.
Yun Zhi smiled softly, and instead of going to bed to rest, he lay down directly on the sofa.
"I'll sleep here tonight."
Li Tian was sitting on a chair, so how could he have the nerve to sleep on the bed? If something happened on the sofa at night, he would have someone to take care of him.
"You don't want to sleep on the bed? Then I'm not welcome, hahaha!"
When Ergou saw that neither of them was going, he laughed. Although the bed was big and could sleep many people, wouldn't it be nice to be able to sleep alone?
"etc!"
Seeing that the two dogs wanted to run away, Li Tian called them down.
Ergou's face suddenly fell. He thought Li Tian was not allowed to sleep on the bed either.
"What are you doing? Why don't you let me sleep if you don't want to sleep?"
It couldn't help but feel slightly aggrieved.
Li Tian didn't answer it, he just reached out and took a money bag on the table, then took out two gold coins and threw them to Ergou.
"Here, you've performed pretty well these past two days. Your brother Tian has given you clear rewards and punishments. These are two thousand mission points. Go back to the academy and change them yourself."
Ergou's eyes shone when he took the gold coin. He couldn't believe that Li Tian could be so generous.
"Brother Tian is mighty, Brother Tian is invincible, hahahaha~"
It quickly held the two gold coins in its arms as if they were treasures and ran towards the bedroom.
Li Tian smiled and shook his head, then threw the money bag back on the table. The heavy weight of the money bag hit the table with a bang.
Yun Zhi looked at the size of the purse and couldn't help but suspect that it was filled with gold coins. Facts have proved that his suspicion was correct.
"Brother, when did you become so rich? If you give it to your third brother, it's two gold coins."
After his family cut off food for him, he had already changed his past lavish behavior. After all, he had a headache when he thought about the huge amount of cultivation resources in the future.
Seeing Li Tian give him two gold coins, his heart ached.
Li Tian took the bag of money again and threw the whole bag at him.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly and he smiled.
"Don't worry about money in the future. I will take care of it. There are more than forty gold coins here. You can use them first."
When Yun Zhi heard the amount of gold coins, he was startled and his mouth opened wide. He quickly opened the money bag and looked at it, and found that it was really all gold coins.
"Brother, did you go on a robbery spree? Where did you get so much money?"
Last time they pitted the Chou family's money in the Battle Pavilion, it was only a few thousand mission points. This time, Li Tian was able to directly take out so much, which made him doubt the origin of the money. He knew that Li Tian was just a
Ordinary families in rural areas cannot afford so much.
"How could it be a robbery? This is my money! Just take it with confidence."
Li Tian was unhappy when he heard this. Who do you think he is? He is the light of the city, how could he do such a thing as robbery!
"Okay, then I'll keep it."
Seeing this, Yun Zhi accepted the windfall with peace of mind.
He took one of the clothes on the table and put the money bag into the clothes. He didn't have much doubt about the two extra clothes, so he thought they were brought by Li Tian.
The thin clouds in the sky have dispersed at some point, revealing the original appearance of the night. The moon fills the sky and illuminates every silent street in Ping'an Town.
In a large manor deep in the dense forest of Ping'an Town, a middle-aged man with half-white hair was standing under a big tree. His eyes were deep and he was staring quietly at the big tree in front of him, as if he was reminiscing about something.
The originally dry branches of the Bodhi tree are already a little alive, and the dying wood is like a child rejuvenated, with layers of old shells shed, and the green buds seem to bring new life.
Not far behind him, a woman in a wheelchair appeared. She had endless tenderness on her face, but her lifeless white hair looked so out of place.
"This is an unknown tree. I really don't understand why you brought it back."
She slowly approached Hou Qingbai, puzzled by the doubts in her heart.
Hou Qingbai smiled slightly, looked at Qing Miao'er, and then looked at the tree in front of him.
"It witnesses our love. Don't you think it's very romantic?"
At this moment, Qing Miao'er's thoughts returned to decades ago, when the two met by chance in Mao'er Mountain. At the same time, there was this Bodhi tree, but it was different from now. The Bodhi tree was full of gorgeous red flowers.
, that flower rain witnessed the ignorant love between the two.
"However, this tree represents blood and cruelty. It uses life as its nourishment."
Although she missed the warmth of the past, she still could not accept the growing conditions of the bodhi tree.
"It's not its fault, is it? It might not have had a choice."
Hou Qing's eyes were blank, and he murmured that his words seemed more like he was talking to himself.
"Qing Bai, I've always thought you were weird since I woke up. What on earth were you hiding from me? Also, you never told me what method you used to wake me up."
Qing Miao'er saw something was wrong with him, and many doubts also surrounded her for a long time, but Hou Qingbai refused to tell her.
"Miao'er, don't ask. Just know that everything I do is for you. I'm tired of life in Ping'an Town. Let's go."
Hou Qingbai's face looked tired, as if he had gone through the vicissitudes of the world, and his hair had become much whiter at this moment.
"But if Wen Cai dies, can you really trust the general manager to take over the Hou Mansion?"
Qing Miao'er's eyes were full of worry. Her tenderness was not only towards Hou Qingbai, but also towards the people of Ping'an Town.
In the past twenty years, it was her persistence that led to the establishment of the food distribution team of the Hou Mansion, which worked day and night to deliver rice to the homeless people in Ping'an Town who could not afford to eat.
It was her persistence that allowed people in this era who could not survive originally to survive.
If they leave, the general manager will definitely cancel the dispatch of the food team. He will not care about the beggar's life or death. This is what Qing Miao'er is most worried about.
"We have no other candidates. Don't worry, I will definitely give him a good explanation before leaving. What Ping'an Town was like before will be what it will be like in the future."
Of course Hou Qingbai also knew that, he knew Qing Miao'er's worries, and he also knew the conduct of the chief manager, but he had no choice.
He finally rescued Qing Miao'er, and he didn't want to live in fear in Ping'an Town. He knew that there must be many people watching him at this moment.
"But we have persisted for so long..."
Qing Miaoer wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Hou Qingbai.
"It's been twenty years, Miao'er, can't we be selfish for once and live for ourselves?"
"As long as I'm here, I believe the chief manager won't mess around. I'm really tired."
Hou Qingbai said feebly that he could not force Qing Miao'er and could only try his best to persuade.
Qingmiaoer saw his fatigue. She knew how much Hou Qingbai had paid for Ping'an Town in the past twenty years. She also knew that Hou Qingbai had become haggard because of her illness in the past two years. Finally, she also
Made up my mind.
"I understand, Qing Bai, I listen to you."
She slowly took the other person's hand, wanting to tell him in this way that no matter how tired she was, she would always be by his side.
"Then let's leave early tomorrow morning, and I'll go find Murphy to explain it now!"
Hou Qingbai was overjoyed when he saw her promise. He was eager to leave now, but he was too eager for the moment. After explaining to the chief manager, he would leave early tomorrow morning, which would bring a perfect end to the matter.
Mo Fei is the name of the General Manager, and Hou Qingbai also called him out in desperation, because the General Manager has been with him for many years, and usually when there are outsiders, he will also call the General Manager to show his approval.
Qing Miao'er looked at his impatient look and smiled softly.
"Are you so anxious?"
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. I have long wanted to take you to live the life of a couple of gods and immortals, without caring about the world, being isolated from the world, and not being disturbed by the world."
Hou Qingbai said, his eyes full of yearning for that kind of life.
"I'll come back as soon as I go, you wait for me."
After saying that, Hou Qingbai quickly left the manor and went to find the chief manager.
Qingmiaoer smiled slightly and pushed the wheelchair away.
At this moment, she turned her head inexplicably and looked at the Bodhi tree behind her again. The green branches were swaying gently in the wind, as if they were waving to her.
"It's strange. This is not Mao'er Mountain. Where does the bodhi tree get its nutrients?"
She frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, and finally shook her head slightly and turned around and disappeared into the courtyard.
Slight snoring could be heard in the room in Wangchuan Building. Yun Zhi might have been too tired and had already fallen asleep.
But Li Tian didn't sleep. He looked out the window, thinking a lot.
If we can really complete this mission with the help of Ergou's news, it will indeed be an unexpected surprise.
But the price of this news was indeed too great. Zhao Yinyun and the others lost eight of their lives, which also made Li Tian unhappy.
"Alas~"
He seemed to be recalling everything that happened in the college during this period. The classmate who was the most active and talkative in the group, the classmate who was flexible and flexible, and who called him "La Li" all the time, passed away in the blink of an eye.
He couldn't help but feel the deep malice of this world. They were no longer ordinary people, but practitioners who could risk their lives at any time.
Maybe, I will die accidentally one day.
However, the great revenge was avenged, and he could be regarded as seeking justice for Zhao Yinyun and the others, and did not let the perpetrators go unpunished.
It was late at night, and dragging his tired body, he gradually fell into sleep.
Today may be a day full of disappointment, but tomorrow will definitely be the beginning of new hope.
