Chapter 489 The heat is just right

When Xiao Yeci saw Li Banfeng, he would usually call out: "My benefactor."
Sometimes he is called Qi Ye, but basically he is not called Qi Ge, because Lu Chunying always calls Li Banfeng Qi Ge.
Today, there is a seventh brother in one mouthful, obviously something is wrong.
Li Banfeng got off the donkey along the slope and asked, "Why do you have to treat me to dinner?"
"I just," Xiao Yeci's cheeks turned red, "I want to be with Brother Qi -·
"Don't be nervous, sit down and speak slowly." Li Banfeng turned on the record player and played a soothing violin music.
Xiao Yeci calmed down and said word by word: "Brother Qi, I've been thinking about you these past two days. When I open my eyes, it's you, when I close my eyes, it's you -..."
Is this what Xiao Yeci can say?
"You miss me that much?" Li Qi smiled, and the violin music on the record player changed a little.
This is the record player that Ling Miaosheng gave to Li Banfeng. It was originally a hand-cranked record player, but the lady transformed it into a wind-up record player, which makes it less troublesome to use.
The record player changed its tune, proving that Xiao Yeci had a hook on his body.
Xiao Yeci lowered his head and said: "For a woman to say such words, I am shameless.
Brother Qi, I know you won’t marry me, but can you treat me differently from other women?”
Li Qi was very curious: "Why is it different?"
Xiao Yeci stammered: "Even if you just let me be a good friend, I would be very happy.
Whatever Brother Qi wants, I will give it to him."
Xiao Yeci repeatedly hinted that this was not what she should say, but she still said it.
She was held hostage.
What chips can be used to hold Xiao Yeci hostage?
It should only be Lu Chunying.
What happened to Lu Chunying? Was she kidnapped?
Is it too difficult?
Lu Chunying is the head of the Lu family. With her current strength, how can she be tied up?
Li Banfeng sighed and said: "Ye Ci, we are all our own people. You are outspoken by talking like this. Isn't it just a meal? I will ask the chef to prepare it immediately. We will eat in Xiaoyaowu. During the meal, we
Drink some wine, and when you're almost done, we'll do something else."
Xiao Yeci was trembling with embarrassment: "Brother Qi, can you not stay at Xiaoyaowu——"
Li Banfengyi: "What's wrong with Xiaoyaowu?"
Xiao Yeci lowered his head and said, "There are so many people who know me here. I'm really, really embarrassed."
Not being in Xiaoyaowu proves that the other party has designated the location and there is an ambush.
"Then pick a place."
"I want to go to the Conqueror Restaurant. The sunset there is so beautiful and the pork belly is delicious."
The Conqueror Restaurant, a new restaurant opened by foreigners, sells Western dishes.
Are there pork slices in watercress?
She said the sunset was so beautiful and the pork belly was delicious. This should be Duan Shaoxia.
Duan Shaoxia kidnapped Lu Chunying?
Does she have this ability?
This matter must be related to Duan Shaoxia, but it's hard to say what Duan Shaoxia's position is.
"Okay, let's go to the Conqueror Restaurant. You wait while I change clothes and get ready." Li Banfeng left the room and took the record from the record player.
Back at his home, Li Banfeng handed the record to his wife. She listened to it quickly and told Li Banfeng a key piece of information:
"Ye Ci, as long as you ask Li Qi out, I will immediately ask them to send Chunying back. From now on, Chunying will be your only daughter and has nothing to do with me anymore.
You must never do stupid things or say stupid things. If I hear you talking to Li Qi, Chunying's life will be lost."
Just as Li Banfeng expected, Lu Chunying was kidnapped.
Lu Chunying followed Li Banfeng through the bloody storms, and was actually kidnapped by this woman.
The opponent has a lot of background, so Li Banfeng needs to make more preparations.
The lady said: "My dear sir, this hook is of average quality and you can catch it with the help of a string."
Li Banfeng was stunned: "Do you still have the ability to pull silk earrings?"
"She is also a newbie. You can let her try it. Send her to my little slave."
Li Banfeng took out the earrings and gave them to his wife, who described the characteristics of the hook in detail: "You can hear the direction of the hook from the sound of the hook. If you listen carefully twice, you should be able to tell a rough idea."
The lady gave instructions on how to pull the thread, and Li Banfeng took out the cabbage seeds. After the cabbage seeds were planted, Li Banfeng left his residence, found Ma Wu, and asked him to gather people immediately.
Twenty minutes later, Li Banfeng returned to the box.
Xiao Yeci looked at Li Banfeng and said, "Brother Seven, do you really want to go?"
Li Banfeng nodded, with a deep smile on his face,
Xiao Yeci was very nervous. After hesitating for a while, he took Li Banfeng out.
Walking to the roadside, Xiao Yeci called a foreign car and drove the two of them to the Conqueror Restaurant.
After entering the private room, Xiao Yeci handed the menu to Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng sat and watched calmly, with a deep smile on his face.
Seeing that Li Banfeng remained silent, Xiao Yeci whispered: "Then I'll order."
After ordering, a waiter came to get the menu. Although he was wearing men's clothing, Xiao Yeci knew it was Duan Shaoxia.
Duan Shaoxia first glanced at Xiao Yeci, then glanced at Li Banfeng, and exited the private room.
"The food is about to be served!" Xiao Yeci glanced at Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng's smile was still deep.
Arriving at the restaurant lobby, Duan Shaoxia said to the cook: "The dishes are ready."
The cook nodded, walked through the kitchen to the backyard of the restaurant, entered the room and said: "Bishop Mosonov, the food is ready."
A middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes turned around and said: "Our battle is about to begin. Remember, we only need people who can talk. The rest is not important. If Li Qi can talk but cannot walk, things will be different for us.
More advantageous, go forth, my warriors, the divine light protects you."
There are fifty-six people under his command, all of whom are foreigners. Each one has a different division of labor and tasks. Fifty of them go to the box to capture Li Qi. Among the remaining six, five are responsible for protecting the bishop, and one is responsible for using
Hook continued to monitor Xiao Yeci and Duan Shaoxia.
Da Boyens was not assigned any tasks. Just as embarrassed as him was Xiao Manli.
Mosonov did not speak to the two of them, and Daboyens felt that it was inappropriate for him to stay here.
So he took the initiative to ask for instructions: "I'm going to patrol the outside of the restaurant to prevent irrelevant people from disturbing our actions."
Mosonov nodded: "Very good, as soon as you have any news, report it to me immediately. Manly, you and Dabo can go together."
Da Boyens and Xiao Manli left the restaurant together and walked on the street. Da Boyens lowered his voice and said, "Did you tell Bishop Mosonov the news?"
Xiao Manli did not deny it: "He happened to bring people to Green Water City. After learning the news, I came to see him immediately. As a member of the Light Chasing Group, this is my duty."
Da Boyens said: "I now understand why your reputation is so bad. You don't understand the concept of credit at all. Cooperating with you is the stupidest decision I have ever made!"
Xiao Manli defended: "Our opponent is the powerful one from Puzhou. We can win with just the abilities of the two of us.
It is impossible to complete this task."
Da Boyens sneered: "Why can't you be more honest? You are worried that I will swallow the red lotus for myself, and you are worried that you will not get any benefits!"
Xiao Manli did not feel ashamed: "Shouldn't I be worried? Shouldn't I get my reward?"
Da Boyens shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Miss Xiao, you can't get anything now. The things fell into the hands of those foreign devils and have nothing to do with us anymore."
"You call them foreign devils?" Xiao Manli said blankly, "Spider Bin, you are really a pragmatic person.
Why did you join the Light Chasing Group?"
"What do you think? What are you doing for? For faith? For their culture? Isn't it all for profit? Just because of your stupid actions, now we have gained nothing!"
Xiao Manli also had some regrets: "He is a bishop. Since he has made a promise, he must fulfill part of it. I think we can at least earn some pills."
Daboyian is not optimistic about this: "The promise is not for us, but for his people. That bastard Mosonov doesn't treat us as human beings. He won't give us anything -"
Halfway through his words, Da Boyens stopped abruptly. The little spider he placed outside sensed something.
"Since we didn't get anything, I don't think we need to bear too much responsibility." Da Boyens quickly turned to a nearby alley, and Xiao Manli quickly followed.
"What happened?"
Da Boyens did not answer, but prayed for Mosonov: "May the divine light protect him."
On the street leading to the Conqueror Restaurant, He Yuxiu walked over with dozens of people.
On the other side of the street, Chu Huaiyuan came over with dozens of people.
Everyone in the He family wears white short coats, and everyone in the Chu family wears gray dresses.
Ma Wu arrived earlier than them. All his men were wearing black Chinese tunic suits.
The owner of the Conqueror Restaurant stood at the door and wanted to come up to ask about the situation. Before he could speak, He Yuxiu grabbed his hair, broke his neck and threw him on the roadside.
In the box, Li Qi looked at Xiao Yeci with a smile. Xiao Yeci was uneasy and rubbed his hands from time to time: "Brother Qi, if you don't like it here, let's leave."
Li Qi didn't speak, and Xiao Yeci became more and more worried.
She wasn't sure whether Li Qi understood what she meant, and she wasn't sure whether Li Qi was properly prepared.
Phew~
Li Qi's body suddenly began to sink and sank into the wooden floor.
Xiao Yeci was startled and shouted: "My dear friend, leave quickly!"
There was a quagmire on the ground. It was unknown how deep it was and where it led. Li Qi remained seated and his body sank rapidly.
This is something a clay cultivator has taken action.
Xiao Yeci rushed forward, trying to hold Li Qi, but a foreigner came through the wall of the private room and captured Xiao Yeci with brute force.
A dozen foreigners rushed in from the door and chopped off Li Qi's hands and feet at an extremely fast speed. This was the bishop's order. They only needed someone who could speak, and nothing else mattered.
More than a dozen foreigners came and carried a metal cabinet and stuffed Li Qi into the cabinet.
Xiao Yeci was shaking all over and tears kept flowing.
Duan Shaoxia once told her that Li Qi could understand the current situation and must have a way to deal with it, but she could never have imagined such a result in her wildest dreams.
She struggled to get up and tried to fight, but was pinned to the ground by two foreigners.
In the backyard of the restaurant, Bishop Mosonov was making tea with several of his subordinates. While arranging the tea sets, he expressed his emotion: "The culture of Prozhou is disgusting, but their drinks are really amazing.
Especially tea, this ancient oriental beverage, can show a charm in details, such as the temperature of the water. Green tea like this is not suitable for brewing with boiling water, otherwise it will seriously affect the quality of the tea.
Taste, people in Puzhou call this problem overcooked.
But if the water temperature is lower than 85 degrees, it will be difficult for the aroma of the tea to be fully exerted, so the optimal temperature is between 85 and 90 degrees."
One of the subordinates asked: "Bishop, do you need to use a thermometer to measure the water temperature?"
Mosonov smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, what we need is judgment, a judgment based on some common sense.
Just like the sound of water ringing, the sound is very loud, but does this mean that the temperature of the water is very high? Common sense tells us,
The sound of water and its temperature are two different things.
In the same way, many people have told you that Prozhou is very powerful, but reputation and strength are two different things. As an individual, they may have excellent combat capabilities, but in the face of careful tactics and teamwork, they
vulnerable,
For example, the famous Li Qi and his group of gangsters, no matter how famous they are, their real strength is as bad as the hooligans on the street.
The entire Prozhou state is in such a state of disgrace. Leaving such good land to this group of rabble is tantamount to sacrilege. When the time comes, this land will eventually belong to us.
The time is coming soon. Just like this kettle of water, it has been boiling until now. The heat is just right. Please pass the kettle to me."
Li Banfeng handed the kettle to Mosonov.
Mosonov was stunned for a moment, did not pick up the kettle, and looked at Li Banfeng beside him.
Li Banfeng held the kettle and said, "Do you want this water?"
"You, who are you——"
"I've brought everything, just keep it." Li Banfeng poured a pot of boiling water on Mosonov's head.
Mosonov let out a heart-rending scream. He looked back at his six subordinates and found that they were standing there with their heads at their feet.
Didn't it mean that Li Qi's hands and feet were chopped off and stuffed into a cabinet?
The group of foreigners who rushed into the private room all thought so. One foreigner sealed the iron cabinet with a spell and told the people outside the private room: "Hand this man over to the bishop immediately and be on guard. He may still escape."
.”
He Yuxiu asked outside the door: "Where is your bishop? If you don't tell me, how can I send him there?"
The foreigner was stunned for a moment and saw He Yuxiu throwing in a blond human head: "I asked him just now and he said he didn't know. Do you know?"
A group of foreigners were still in a daze. He Yuxiu picked up a plate and chopped off half of the foreigner's head.
A foreigner rushed towards He Yuxiu and suddenly collapsed on the ground. He was hit by Ma Wu's technique and his blood vessels burst.
Chu Er was besieged by two foreigners. She took a knife and made a cut on her face. The two foreigners each had a cut on their face.
Chu Er's gash was less than an inch long, and the gash on the two foreigners' faces was nearly half a foot long, stretching from their cheeks to the back of their heads.
A foreigner next to him was so frightened that he was a little unsteady on his feet. Tan Fucheng pulled up a chair and said, "Don't be afraid, just sit down for a while. Do you know where our lady is?"
The foreigner remained silent, and Tan Fucheng put his fingers on the foreigner's eyes: "If you don't want to say anything? Then I will ask for something good from you."
Lu Yuanxin pulled out a centipede from the back of a foreigner's head, and then helped Xiao Yeci up on the ground.
Xiao Yeci cried and rushed to the iron cabinet, opened the door, and saw Li Qi whose hands and feet had been chopped off.
"My benefactor, my benefactor!" Xiao Yeci wished he could hit his head against the cabinet and die.
He Yuxiu looked at it for a moment, then pushed Xiao Yeci away and said, "Stop howling, this is a cabbage."
This is a cabbage man made by Li Banfeng. It has been carved by the lady. Normally, He Yuxiu wouldn't be able to tell.
But now that he was chopped badly, He Yuxiu could see the flaw in the wound.
Chu Er wiped the blood on his face and said, "Where did Brother Seven go?"
Li Banfeng relied on the wire earrings to chase the hook and chased him to the backyard of the restaurant.
The shrill shouts in the backyard startled everyone. Li Banfeng held Mosonov's hair, pressed his right face against the wall and walked forward quickly.
The rough wall quickly wore off Mosonov's face, exposing his bones. Mosonov's voice became louder and louder. Li Banfeng reminded: "The loudness of the voice will have a certain impact on my emotions.
The louder you shout, the more suffering you will suffer."
Mosonov didn't dare to shout anymore, and Li Banfeng asked, "Where has Lu Chunying gone?"
Mosonov said: "Unless you let me go, I won't tell you."
"It's a bit difficult to let you go, I can turn you over!" Li Banfeng pressed the left side of Mosonov's face against the wall and continued to rub it.
At the Customs and Defense Department, Liao Zihui was about to get off work when he suddenly received an urgent message from Xia Shumin: "General Envoy, something big happened. Ravsha Mosonov and his party had a conflict with Li Qi and others in the Conqueror Restaurant. Some people have been killed in the conflict.
.”
Liao Zihui said blankly: "How could such a thing happen?"
Xia Shumin said: "The cause of the incident requires further investigation. Ambassador, if Li Qi is not stopped as soon as possible, Mosonov and his party may all die, which may lead to serious disputes."
Liao Zihui sighed and said: "We must attach great importance to this matter and gather all the deputy ambassadors together.
The backbone of each department also gathered together and immediately held an emergency meeting to study the solution."
Ah? A meeting?
Xia Shumin suspected that he heard wrongly.
Secretary Ling Sujun asked: "Many deputy ambassadors are on business trips. Do we need to consult them through emergency communication equipment?"
Liao Zihui smacked his lips and said: "Relying on communication equipment, some details cannot be explained thoroughly. Inform all personnel on business trips to return to the Customs and Defense Department as soon as possible."
What? Are you still waiting for your business trip to come back?
Xia Shumin couldn't understand Liao Zihui's operation at all.
"General, the conflict in the restaurant is still going on. Should we take some emergency measures?"
Liao Zihui nodded and said: "There should be some emergency measures. You should draft a report immediately. The wording must be rigorous. At the same time, you should follow up on the latest progress of the conflict and report the news to your superiors as soon as possible."
Xia Shumin was speechless and went to write a report.
Liao Zihui opened the second drawer of his desk and pulled out a document.
"The Light Chasing Club, the idea is to reach Prozhou. I was just thinking about how to deal with you, but you are going to die on your own.
You couldn’t find anyone, so you found Li Qi’s head, which will save you trouble now."
Mosonov's face was smoothed down to the bone. He promised to tell Lu Chunying's whereabouts, but the condition was that he must lead the way in person, and only Li Qi could follow.
There was a scam here. He Yuxiu shook her head repeatedly and signaled Li Qi not to go. Xiao Yeci wanted to go by himself, but Duan Shaoxia stopped him.
Duan Shaoxia came to Mosonov and gently touched his cheek, which was only a bone: "You said you would help me find the child."
As they looked at each other, there was a bloodshot streak in Mosonov's eyes.
He grabbed Duan Shaoxia's hand and said: "Beautiful madam, as long as I am alive, the promise I made will definitely be fulfilled. Can you let me live?"
"I must let you live. I will protect you with my life. Tell me where Lu Chunying is, and I will trade her for your life."
Mosonov was hesitant. If he was in normal condition, he might be able to resist Duan Shaoxia's technique.
Now he is not normal, he only has one breath left,
The two looked at each other for a full two minutes. Duan Shaoxia leaned down and heard Mosonov's whisper.
Duan Shaoxia stood up and said, "Lu Chunying is in a house on Anxuan Road."
Li Banfeng couldn't quite understand Duan Shaoxia's position, and Duan Shaoxia didn't explain.
Tan Fucheng and Lu Yuanxin brought their men and brought Lu Chunying back according to the address Duan Shaoxia said.
Lu Chunying was not afraid, but instead blamed herself: "Brother Qi, I was careless and got caught by these foreign devils."
Lu Chunying was indeed careless this time. When she learned that Xiao Yeci was threatened by Xiao Manli, Lu Chunying planned to get rid of Xiao Manli, but Duan Shaoxia's subordinates suddenly came to the door, catching Lu Chunying off guard.
Lu Chunying was eager to calm down the matter, so she took two subordinates with her and followed the supervisor to see Duan Shaoxia. Unexpectedly, these two supervisors were members of the Light Chasing Group. They led Lu Chunying into an ambush and captured Lu Chunying and her subordinates alive.
.
Lu Chunying never came back, which made Xiao Yeci very anxious. She ran to the Lu family mansion to find Duan Shaoxia, but she didn't know that Duan Shaoxia was already under the surveillance of the Light Chaser Group and she could not protect herself.
Fortunately, Mrs. Duan had the insight and secretly informed Xiao Yeci, asking her to agree to Xiao Manli's conditions and ask Li Qi out.
Xiao Yeci refused because she didn't want to harm Li Qi.
Duan Shaoxia is very confident. She believes that Li Qi has a way to deal with it.
Xiao Yeci thought that even if he wanted to find Li Qi, he had to explain the matter first. But when he arrived at Xiaoyaowu, Xiao Yeci knew that he had a hook on his body and did not dare to say anything openly. He could only let Li Qi know the general situation of the matter through hints.
Duan Shaoxia's judgment was correct. Li Qi did have a way to deal with it. More than fifty members of the Light Chasing Society were captured by him.
But where did Xiao Manli go?
While everyone was cleaning the scene, Li Banfeng and He Yuxiu found a quiet place and asked Xiao Yeci:
What is the relationship between Xiao Manli and you?"
Xiao Yeci said: "She is my sister."
At this point, Xiao Yeci didn't want to go on.
He Yuxiu said: "Sister, tell me, there are no outsiders here."
Xiao Yeci lowered his head and said, "I don't care. I'm afraid that someone will not recognize his identity."
He Yuxiu said with a smile: "Sister, you don't recognize your identity, you earn it by yourself. If anyone dares to make irresponsible remarks about Chunying, let's tear his mouth apart and see who dares to bite his teeth in the future."
This is a hard truth. Xiao Yeci naturally understood it and spoke with some confidence: "I am from Ye Songqiao. In Ye Songqiao, our Xiao family's family background is pretty good.
Xiao Manli is the eldest daughter of our generation. She was betrothed to the Yang family a long time ago, and she only waited until the time came to get married.
That year she suffered a serious illness and lay in bed for almost a year without leaving the yard. After she recovered, an additional child came out of the family."
He Yuxiu smiled: "You scholars are really good at talking around things. She obviously gave birth to a child, and she said she was sick. This child is Chunying, right?"
Xiao Yeci nodded and said: "This child is Chunying's. There were some rumors at that time, saying that Lu Dongliang, the eldest son of the Lu family, slept with my sister. My mother was afraid that the Yang family would regret the marriage and wanted to throw the child away.
Yes."
He Yuxiu shook his head and said: "I'm afraid I don't dare. This is Lu Dongliang's son. If Lu Dongliang doesn't care about it, this matter will be over. If he cares about it, your Xiao family will be finished. He is cruel and vicious. This matter will be over."
Do you dare to bet?"
Xiao Yeci shook his head and said, "I don't dare to bet. My father thought about it for two days and put the child in my house to take care of him first. I was only eleven years old at that time. He was not born to the first wife, and my mother died early.
, I agree to whatever my father asks me to do, who would have thought of it, they...——"
He Yuxiu already guessed the result: "They put this child on your head."
Xiao Yeci sighed and said, "I was secretive at first, but after another two years, I was forced to admit the child. After another two years, my father said that I had ruined the family tradition and kicked me and the child out.
.”
He Yuxiu sighed: "This is because your father has figured out the reason. He is sure that Lu Dongliang will not pursue this matter anymore, so he simply gets rid of this matter."
Xiao Yeci said: "Fortunately, I can read. I grew up by copying and writing for others.
But I’m really not..."
Lu Chunying said from the side: "You are my biological mother. Sister Xiu is right. Anyone who dares to make irresponsible remarks will tear his mouth. If you tear him off twice more, he will stop."
Xiao Yeci lowered his head, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "But Manli—"
Li Banfeng sighed: "There is no need to worry about this matter. I think this Ms. Xiao Manli is also a reasonable person. If I find an opportunity to chat with her and give her some advice, she should be able to listen."
He Yuxiu said: "Where is she?"
Zuo Wu just walked in and said, "Master Qi, those foreign devils are locked up in the kitchen. How do you think they should be dealt with?"
Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said, "You guys go back to Xiaoyaowu and wait for me. I'll have a little chat with them."
Everyone left the Conqueror Restaurant, and Li Banfeng sent a group of foreigners into his residence.
"I have something to talk to you about. Let's talk about the Light Chasing Group first."
A group of foreigners bowed their heads and remained silent. Mosonov said with all his strength: "We are Ravsha people. Before you hurt me, you must consider the consequences.
Let us go immediately and go to the Lushui City Customs and Defense Department to admit the crimes you committed. There is still room for redemption."
Hong Ying stood up and said, "What nonsense is this bird man talking about?"
The record player sang: "This is because we don't treat our guests well, old teapot, is the tea ready?"
The teapot smiled and said: "The water has just boiled, just in time to warm up your bodies."
PS: How is the quality of this batch of ingredients?
