Chapter 286 The bait that becomes food
When Qin Xiao went to Hucao's warehouse, the winter clothes from Baihu Camp had already been brought out. It was getting late. The general sat in Fengganfu City and passed down the general's order. After dark, no one was allowed to enter or leave the city gate. Therefore, Baihu
It was difficult for everyone in the camp to leave the city, so Qin Xiao took everyone directly to his residence.
His house is naturally not small. It can accommodate dozens of people, not to mention a dozen people.
Qin Xiao asked Song Laoshi and his wife to prepare a meal, which was naturally very rich. Everyone saw that the riding school was so generous, and they were naturally grateful.
The carriage carrying winter clothes parked directly in the backyard, and people were assigned to take turns guarding it. Others were drinking and mingling in the warm room.
Qin Xiao drank with everyone for a while, then let them do what they wanted, and told everyone not to drink too much and rest early, while he went directly to the Bai family mansion next door.
Qin Xiao didn't hear everything Shopkeeper Bai said that night at Tiandu Peak, but he could guess that the downfall of the Yuwen family was closely related to Shopkeeper Bai.
But the general obviously valued Bai Jingzhai very much. When he ordered to go to Fan County to reorganize the army, he asked Bai Jingzhai to go with him.
He knew that Shopkeeper Bai was very secretive. On the surface, he was a retainer of the Yuwen family, but behind his back, he had secret dealings with the general and even the Fan family. He really couldn't figure out where this person belonged.
Shopkeeper Bai was like a dormant poisonous snake. The Yuwen family had great trust in him, but in the end it was this retainer who had won the trust of the old marquis who dealt the fatal blow to the Yuwen family.
Qin Xiao actually doesn't want to have too much contact with such people.
This person was too dangerous, so dangerous that Qin Xiao did not dare to approach him.
It's just that there has been no news from Tang Rong since she disappeared last time. Although Qin Xiao knew that Tang Rong might have returned to Mr. Da, he was very worried about whether it would be a blessing or a curse after returning.
He knew that Shopkeeper Bai was playing a long game to catch the big fish and was using Tang Rong to find Mr. Da. He must have some knowledge of Tang Rong's current situation, and he just wanted to get some information from Shopkeeper Bai.
Although Tang Rong has left, there are naturally other servants waiting at the White House.
After the report, Qin Xiao, led by his servants, went to the backyard of Bai House and found that there was a fish pond in the backyard. Shopkeeper Bai was sitting in a wheelchair, holding a fishing rod in his hand, and was fishing at night with great interest.
Shopkeeper Bai saw Qin Xiao coming and pointed to a chair next to him. Naturally, he knew Qin Xiao was coming and asked people to get ready.
After Qin Xiao sat down, shopkeeper Bai smiled and said, "I'm feeling bored, so you can come over and talk to me."
"The shopkeeper likes fishing at night?"
"What you're fishing for is not a fish, it's just a way to relieve loneliness." Shopkeeper Bai said, "You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Do you have something to ask me for?" He turned to Qin Xiao and said, "For Ronger?"
Qin Xiaozhi, with Shopkeeper Bai's astuteness, naturally couldn't have known the reason for his visit. He nodded and said, "Has there been no news from Sister Rong?"
Shopkeeper Bai hesitated for a moment and finally asked: "Does the riding school have admiration for Ronger?"
"Shopkeeper Bai always looks at things very carefully." Qin Xiao said with a smile, "I do like her very much."
"Do you know who Ronger is?" Shopkeeper Bai asked.
Qin Xiao's heart tightened, but he still said: "Isn't she the adopted daughter of the shopkeeper?
"
"Has Ronger never mentioned her true identity to you?" Shopkeeper Bai said calmly.
Qin Xiao opened his mouth slightly, but shopkeeper Bai already smiled and said: "Didn't you hide in her bed that night? Didn't you hear what I said to her?"
Qin Xiao's body was shaken, and his heart was horrified.
That night, he climbed over the wall into Tang Rong's yard and helped the drunk Tang Rong back into the house, but shopkeeper Bai suddenly came to the door late at night. In order to prevent shopkeeper Bai from misunderstanding, he could only hide on Tang Rong's bed.
Because of the screen, shopkeeper Bai didn't notice him. Only then did he realize that this old fox had seen through it a long time ago.
"I know you don't have anything, but if I revealed that you were in the house at that time, everyone would be embarrassed." Shopkeeper Bai held the fishing rod in one hand and stroked his beard with the other hand: "You should know that she will be with you the next day.
Naturally, the purpose of going out and shopping is not the purpose. The purpose is to find opportunities to interact with Mr. Da’s people.”
Qin Xiao thought that since the old fox said it for this reason, there was no need for him to be secretive. He nodded and said: "I know she is Mr. Da's person. She is helpless by your side."
"Why did she tell you to stay with me?" Shopkeeper Bai Yun Danfengqing said: "To get the connections I have had in Wutuo for many years? Or do you want to wait until one day to take over the Yuwen family's business in Wutuo?"
Qin Xiao smiled lightly and said: "Of course the shopkeeper already knew Sister Rong's purpose."
"She belongs to Mr. Da. She was sent by Mr. Da to be by my side. She wants to use me to finally control Wu Tuo's eyes and ears." Shopkeeper Bai smiled and said: "Riding School, I can tell you the truth. Today,
I still have many connections in Wutuo, and I even have nails planted in various tribes in Wutuo. There are even many hidden stakes that even the Yuwen family knows nothing about. If one day I need to use these hidden stakes, it will be a piece of cake.
It's so pervasive that I even know exactly which woman Brother Narusheng sleeps with at night."
Qin Xiao was convinced of this.
"I know that the great gentleman has put his hands and feet into Wutuo over the years." Shopkeeper Bai looked at the calm mirror-like water and said calmly: "He has also placed people in Wutuo, and has even penetrated into the city of Mujila.
We were lucky enough to find the man and capture him quietly. Perhaps no one knows that I captured him until now."
Qin Xiao looked at Shopkeeper Bai and felt more and more that the old fox was much more terrifying than he thought.
"If I want to ask for a confession from a person, I will definitely get what I want to know. You don't have to doubt this." Shopkeeper Bai said with a smile on his lips: "So from that person, I know the existence of Mr. Da.
, and also know that Mr. Da has been controlling his spies with Qianye Manluo." He glanced at Qin Xiao and said slowly: "Now that I know that Wu Tuo still has such a power, I have seen Ronger several times.
If there is a flaw, of course she will be suspected of being Mr. Da’s person.”
"The shopkeeper has not taken action against Sister Rong for a long time. Naturally, he is waiting to use her to find Mr. Da one day." Qin Xiao said.
Shopkeeper Bai looked at Qin Xiao with deep eyes, and suddenly asked: "Do you believe that what Tang Rong said is true?"
Qin Xiao was startled.
"As you know, she was trained by Mr. Da from an early age, and then controlled by drugs, and found an opportunity to stay with me." Shopkeeper Bai asked: "Do you think all this is true?"
"Isn't it true?"
Shopkeeper Bai smiled and stroked his beard and said: "I don't know either. I only know that your sister Rong is smarter than you think. That night, I exposed her as Mr. Da's person. She didn't deny it. I really doubted it.
She is a hidden stake arranged by Mr. Da to be around me, but... this is just a suspicion. Her reaction that night will make people think that there is nothing wrong with what I expected." He sighed and said: "But you
Don't forget, she has been with me for more than ten years. Although I was suspicious of her from the beginning, her behavior made me doubt my judgment for a while and felt that she and I were really destined, and it was not someone's intention.
Arrangement. She is a very beautiful woman, but compared to her appearance, what she is best at is acting."
Qin Xiao frowned and moved his lips slightly, but did not speak.
"That night, I was testing, but was her reaction intentional?" Shopkeeper Bai sighed: "She said it was because of Qian Ye Man Luo that she had to obey Mr. Da's instructions. Is this true or false?
Is she just a pawn of Mr. Big, or...is she a chess player? I, the adopted daughter, am much smarter than I thought."
"I don't understand what the shopkeeper said." Qin Xiao said with a bitter smile.
Shopkeeper Bai said: "Then let me tell you, she suddenly disappeared that day, and I actually sent three masters to keep an eye on her secretly. I can tell you that the tracking skills of these three people are by no means weaker than the Night Owls of Ziyi Prison. If
If you want to keep an eye on a person, you can track it to the end of the world. Moreover, these three people are acting alone and do not know the existence of the other two. They use their own methods to track Tang Rong, even if they are discovered by Mr. Da’s people
, it’s also difficult to detect the existence of three people at the same time.”
Qin Xiao actually didn't know what the Purple Clothes Supervisor Night Owl was, but from Shopkeeper Bai's tone, he could conclude that the three tracking masters were indeed not ordinary people.
"I really want to use Tang Rong to find out what the power behind her is." Shopkeeper Bai said slowly: "I am also prepared. Among the three of them, one or two people are likely to lose. If they are discovered or even
If she is killed, Tang Rong may feel that the eyes and ears I sent have been cleaned up by her, and only one person needs to be left behind to still be able to track her whereabouts." He sighed and said, "But in just one day, all three of them were killed.
Killed, and all three heads were sent to my backyard."
Qin Xiao's body was shaken, and shopkeeper Bai shook his head helplessly and said: "This is almost impossible, but she managed to do it. Over the years, I rarely fail in what I have to do, but this time I completely failed."
Failed. The plan that had been planned for many years was ruined by her in one day. Riding school, do you still think that your sister Rong is an ordinary person? Maybe her skills are much more powerful than we thought. "
"You mean, you don't know her whereabouts now?"
Shopkeeper Bai shook his head and said: "She has completely disappeared now. I really don't know if I will see her again. Riding school, I just want to tell you that flowers that are too beautiful may contain poison. She is very harmful to her.
You may have never really shown sincerity. Now that you have left, your best choice is to pretend that she has never appeared in your life. This may be more beneficial to you." He smiled bitterly: "I originally thought.
