He reluctantly left the beauty on his crotch. The middle-aged man quickly put on his clothes.
"I wonder what this Shaoyu wants to do with me? I have no grievances with him, so he won't even want to destroy me?" The middle-aged man murmured in a panic, glancing at the delicate beauty beside him.
Thinking of the desolate scene of the Wang family being wiped out that day in his mind, the middle-aged man shivered all over!
"No, if he really came to kill me, I'm afraid he would have taken action already." After thinking about it like this, the middle-aged man let out a long sigh of relief.
"Master, what has made you so anxious? Have you not even cared about me?" On the bed, a beautiful woman was naked. She only used a thin quilt to cover the important parts of her body. She blinked.
Meimu said doubtfully.
"You're a woman, what do you know? Stay here and don't go out." He glanced at the beautiful woman fiercely, and the middle-aged man growled in a low voice.
I still don’t know if I can survive until tonight. How can a middle-aged man at this moment still be in the mood to talk about love?
After arranging his clothes, the middle-aged man strode out of the room neatly dressed. Only the delicate and beautiful woman was left sitting on the bed with a blank look on her face.
In her opinion, even if his immediate boss, the princess of the county town, came, she had never seen a man with such a panic and urgent look. However, a man named Shaoyu brought the master to
She was so nervous, as if a disaster was about to happen. The beautiful woman was very puzzled! But it didn't matter to her, she was just a little curious.
Arriving in the hall of the mansion, the middle-aged man saw a young man sitting there carefully, with a look of anxiety on his face.
"Haha! Mr. Shaoyu? I didn't know you were coming today, so please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar!" Before he could get closer, the middle-aged man's dark face was filled with a professional smile, and immediately,
He said some official polite words that he often said.
"You must be City Lord Qiu, Qiu Liaoyun?" Shaoyu said lightly when he saw a middle-aged man walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"Yes, yes... I'm right here! I wonder, Mr. Shaoyu, why are you here today? I originally thought of visiting you in person in a few days, but I didn't expect..." When he came to Shaoyu, Qiu Liaoyun nodded quickly. Immediately
, he said with anxiety in his heart.
Waving his hand lightly, Shaoyu frowned slightly. He glanced at the surrounding guards with an indifferent gaze, and winked at Qiu Liaoyun, signaling him to withdraw all these unwilling people.
After some understanding, how could Qiu Liaoyun, who often dealt with the officialdom, not understand what Shaoyu meant. But if he wants all the people around him to retreat, then he will be alone. Under normal circumstances, middle-aged men are
I will never agree. But now, facing a man who can kill the strong King of War with one move, his guards are actually just my decoration.
After thinking about this, Qiu Liaoyun winked at a middle-aged captain next to him and motioned for them all to retreat.
"Sir, what can we say now? There are only two of us here!" Qiu Liaoyun's embarrassed face tried hard to squeeze out a smile.
"Yes!" He nodded with satisfaction. Shaoyu was very satisfied with the latter's cooperation. Then he looked directly at the other party with a sharp look, and Shaoyu said with a serious expression, "There is something I want to ask you. Do you want to ask me something?"
Answer truthfully!"
Feeling the coldness of the other party, Qiu Liaoyun shivered and subconsciously touched his back with one hand, only to find that his shirt had been soaked with sweat without even realizing it.
You must know that Qiu Liao Yungui is a city lord, and his own strength is not weak. He has the cultivation level of a peak warrior, but facing Shaoyu, the former seems a little helpless!
"Yes, yes, yes!" Qiu Liaoyun nodded quickly.
Seeing that the situation had achieved the effect he wanted, Shaoyu calmed down his momentum slightly and said in a sharp tone, "Do you still remember eight years ago, on a night of thunder and lightning, a group of soldiers were in Crescent Town,
Arresting people everywhere? This is an area under your jurisdiction, don't tell me you don't know. Or were those soldiers sent by you?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Liaoyun's initial expression was one of confusion.
"Eight years ago? Storm? Crescent Town?" He lowered his head and murmured, and the middle-aged man fell into endless contemplation...
There are many stormy nights. But on such a night, it is rare to see a group of soldiers go out to arrest someone.
He tried hard to recall what happened eight years ago in his mind. After all, it was about his own life. Qiu Liaoyun had to pay attention to it.
After a while, Qiu Liaoyun suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining brightly.
"Remember?" Seeing the expression on the other person's face, Shaoyu shouted in surprise.
"It seems... there is such a thing!" the middle-aged man murmured in a low voice.
Hearing this, Shaoyu couldn't help but frown. Immediately, a cold and biting gaze looked directly at the other party.
"Huh? Yes, indeed! I remembered it." Feeling Shaoyu's sharp gaze, Qiu Liaoyun was slightly startled at first, and then shouted.
"Speak quickly!" Shaoyu roared in a low voice.
"Yes, yes! It was a stormy night, and the rain was very heavy. I received an order from my superiors to capture five hundred strong men within three days and then hand them over to them. I
They are all acting under orders! Please sir, can you
Forgive me!" When things have developed to this point, Qiu Liaoyun can vaguely guess that one night eight years ago, someone under his command must have offended this young man unintentionally. To be precise, he was captured.
What kind of relatives?
At this point, it is useless for Qiu Liaoyun to regret. He can only pray for Shaoyu's forgiveness. After all, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will not let it go.
"Then do you know where the people you arrested are now?" Shaoyu frowned and asked.
"This...I don't know for sure. But one thing is certain, they must have been transported to the imperial capital!" After hesitating for a moment, Qiu Liaoyun said with eyes shining.
After all, the only thing I can do now is to try my best to please the old man in front of me! If my answer dissatisfies the other person, my head may move in an instant.
"Imperial Capital?" Looking at the other party's expression, it didn't look like he was lying, and Shaoyu suddenly murmured in his heart!
There are undoubtedly two uses for capturing strong men. One is to capture and serve as soldiers, and the other is to serve as coolies and do various things for the empire. There is no personality at all!
But compared to the first type, Shaoyu would rather hope that his father is doing hard labor. Because although it is a bit harder, at least he will not lose his life. And the first type, the mortality rate is really too high.
, Thinking of this, Shaoyu couldn't help but feel tight!
