Looking at the broken spirit tablet, Chu Yu's expression changed several times. He noticed something strange behind him. Qian Duoduo looked away from the ground. Seeing that Chu Yu's expression was a little abnormal, he asked aloud: "What's wrong with you?"
Facing Qian Duoduo's gaze, Chu Yu took a deep breath and said nothing.
Seeing that Chu Yu was silent, Qian Duoduo smiled bitterly. After taking out a cigarette and handing it to Chu Yu, Qian Duoduo began to work on his own in the house. Looking at Qian Duoduo's back, Chu Yu looked at the metal iron on the wall.
In the photo, Tie Quansheng is 27 or 28 years old, with a smile on his face and a quiet demeanor.
Looking at the photo, thinking of the days when he and Tie Quansheng lived on Rainbow Island, Chu Yu felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart - he regretted that he did not go to see Tie Quansheng when he left the alliance. Tie Quansheng betrayed the empire and was punished.
In the pursuit of Qisehua, Tie Quansheng was protected by the Cao family in the past, but now that the Cao family has been wiped out, Tie Quansheng is undoubtedly in a very dangerous situation.
Chu Yu began to worry about Tie Quansheng's current situation. After a moment, he came back to his senses and looked away from the photo. Chu Yu looked at Qian Duoduo who was making tea. Chu Yu couldn't understand why Qian Duoduo had Tie Quan here.
After all, he and Tie Quansheng lived on Rainbow Island for four years. Chu Yu did not listen to Tie Quansheng.
Better than Qian Duoduo. In addition, Tie Quansheng betrayed the empire and went to the Chinese Alliance after being hunted by the empire. In the empire, Tie Quansheng's spiritual tablet is enshrined like this. Isn't Qian Duoduo afraid that people from the empire will come to his door? Moreover, Qian
If Duoduo knew Tie Quansheng, how could he not know that Tie Quansheng was not dead?
These questions flashed through his mind, and the more Chu Yu thought about it, the more confused he became, especially Qian Duoduo's reaction when he asked Tie Quansheng just now. He looked very taboo. Although Chu Yu had been trying to figure out other people's thoughts since he was a child, Qian Duoduo's reaction was cautious.
Chu Yu couldn't see through Duoduo's reaction just now. Is there any other story between Qian Duoduo and Tie Quansheng? Thinking about this, Chu Yu couldn't help but look at Qian Duoduo and asked: "I just looked at this person a little bit..."
He looked familiar, so I asked a few more questions."
"Nothing." Qian Duoduo nodded. If he were a normal person, he would probably ask why he looked familiar, but Qian Duoduo didn't. He stood absent-mindedly next to the induction cooker, taking a long puff of cigarette, and the smoke filled half of his face.
.At this time, the water in the teapot began to boil. Qian Duoduo took out the teacup and poured Chu Yu a cup of hot tea.
After pouring himself a cup of hot tea, Qian Duoduo opened the drawer and rummaged around for something. After a while, he took out a plastic bag, reached out and took out a thumb-sized piece of rock candy, and Qian Duoduo handed it to Chu Yu.
Looking at the rock candy in Qian Duoduo's hand, Chu Yu was stunned.
"What are you doing stupidly? Make some tea and drink it sweetly." Looking at the look on Chu Yu's face, Qian Duoduo said with a smile.
"I like drinking boiled water." Chu Yu shook his head and refused.
"Okay." Qian Duoduo said and threw the rock sugar into his tea cup: "Life is like this boiled water, bland and tasteless. If I don't add something, I can't drink it." After that, Qian Duoduo brought one
The spoon gently stirred the rock sugar in the cup, and soon the rock sugar and hot tea merged together.
Seeing Qian Duoduo stirring the rock sugar with a serious look on his face, even though he was anxious about the news about Huo Qilin, Chu Yu still swallowed his words.
Qian Duoduo took a sip of sugar tea, and the expression on his face became happy. After taking a sip of boiled water, Chu Yu looked at Qian Duoduo, and asked for unknown purpose, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"Isn't this a service for you? I haven't had time to eat yet." Qian Duoduo didn't care at all: "My business is not open for three days and open for three days."
"Wouldn't it be better to find a serious job? At least you can fill your stomach." Chu Yu was often hungry when he was young and knew what it was like to have no food, so looking at the money, he couldn't help but feel sympathy in his heart.
The previous doubts about Qian Duoduo were also reduced.
"It's not that I haven't done it before, I just don't want to look at other people's faces." Qian Duoduo said, blowing on the tea cup in his hand. After taking a sip of sugar tea, he stood up feeling a little warm: "I don't think so.
There’s nothing wrong with eating, at least my stomach reminds me every day that I need to find something to eat.”
"Cheat... this... is not the right way after all." Chu Yu originally wanted to say cheating, but in order to save Qian Duoduo's face, Chu Yu used this word instead.
"Yes, I also know that this is not the right way. Look at the civilians in the empire. At my age, many of them are already married and have children. The husband and wife go to work and take care of the children to cook every day. That kind of life is not what I want.
, who stipulated that I have to be like them? Marry yourself
You look down on a woman, and then you run around every day for food, rice, oil and salt? Many people say that you want to get married. What if you don't get married? Do you have to get married to live your whole life? There is no requirement in imperial law to get married? Of course.
, I have no right to comment on others, but
I don’t want others to dictate my life. People nowadays listen to their parents, teachers, and friends without having their own ideas. In this society, there are always some people who don’t know what they want.
In their sleep, they have passed your life for you. In the name of love, they
I will tell you when to get married, who to marry, when to have children... Wait, do those who help you live your life really understand what you want? I can only live a hundred years, I just want to go along with it.
I live with my true heart and don’t want to be boxed in by rules and regulations.”
Listening to Qian Duoduo's words, Chu Yu was a little speechless. He felt that Qian Duoduo's ideas were a bit extreme, but when he thought about it carefully, it was true. There are many ways to live. Qian Duoduo lives like this, and outsiders have no right to interfere.
After saying these words, Qian Duoduo's mood improved a lot. After looking at the time, Qian Duoduo continued: "I was just complaining just now. By the way, I have some clues about what you asked me to inquire about."
"Do you know where the fire unicorn is?" Holding the tea cup in his hand, Chu Yu looked at Qian Duoduo. After listening to Qian Duoduo's words, Chu Yu was sure that there was a story between Qian Duoduo and Tie Quansheng, because Qian Duoduo said just now
Chu Yu vaguely remembered hearing Tie Quansheng say it, especially those who had lived their lives for him. Although he felt good about it,
I wonder what the relationship between Qian Duoduo and Tie Quansheng is, but Chu Yu saw that Qian Duoduo didn't seem to want others to talk about Tie Quansheng, so Chu Yu stopped asking - Chu Yu kept this question in mind. In Chu Yu's opinion
Anyway, there will be a long time to come, and it’s not too late to ask for more money if I have the opportunity. The key now is to find Huo Qilin and Gu Jianfeng.
"My guess is correct. Fire Qilin is a nickname. The person I bought the news from told me that Fire Qilin is in the outer city." Qian Duoduo said for a while: "As for the specific location, I also asked that person.
He said he lives in Nancheng, and his address is No. 18, Jingguang Road."
"Is the news accurate?" After listening to Qian Duoduo's words, Chu Yu frowned.
"It should be no problem. This person has always been very trustworthy in the industry." Qian Duoduo glanced at Chu Yu and did not express any dissatisfaction: "All the silver coins you gave me were used to buy news. If he lies to me, I promise
Can I come back again?"
Chu Yu nodded: "Is there any news about Gu Jianfeng?"
"Gu Jianfeng's whereabouts are erratic. The man said that he should be in the inner city." Qian Duoduo said, lighting a cigarette: "The man said that Gu Jianfeng is the most important criminal in the empire, but because of his strength, although the empire does not
They will deliberately cause trouble for him, but he will not show his face easily, so it is difficult to find him." After Qian Duoduo finished speaking, he glanced at the agarwood beads on Chu Yu's wrist intentionally or unintentionally. Chu Yu was thinking about Qian Duoduo's words.
, did not notice Qian Duoduo’s gaze.
Seeing that Chu Yu didn't speak, Qian Duoduo didn't say anything anymore. At this moment, the phone in Chu Yu's pocket rang. Chu Yu took out the phone and saw that it was Li Ge's number, so he pressed the answer button. Li Ge
Asked where Chu Yu was and when he would be back, Chu Yu said he was staying with a friend and would be back soon, and asked Li Ge and the others to rest first. Chu Yu hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yu took out two silver coins from his pocket and put them on the table: "This is tea money."
Looking at the two silver coins that Chu Yu put on the table, Qian Duoduo was a little surprised and froze on the spot. However, Chu Yu said nothing and turned around and walked out. When Chu Yu walked to the door, Qian Duoduo woke up.
, looking at Chu Yu's back, he couldn't help but shout Chu Yu's name.
Chu Yu paused and looked at Qian Duoduo, whose face turned a little red. Chu Yu smiled and said, "I'll call you if you need anything." After saying that, Chu Yu opened the door and looked outside.
Walking away, Qian Duoduo didn't look back until Chu Yu's back disappeared in the dark night. Thinking of Chu Yu saying it was tea money in order to take care of his own face, Qian Duoduo felt a trace of warmth in his heart, but until Chu Yu left, that sentence was hidden in
He didn't say thank you from the bottom of his heart.
After looking at the silver coins on the table, Qian Duoduo looked at Tie Quansheng's photo on the wall. After a few seconds, he stepped forward and took off Tie Quansheng's photo from the wall. Qian Duoduo carefully folded the photo
Okay, after he put the photo deep in the drawer, he picked up Tie Quansheng's spiritual tablets and put them together. After stuffing the spiritual tablets into the table, Qian Duoduo looked at the spiritual tablets and murmured: "Tie Quansheng
Uncle, I will definitely avenge you!"
Chu Yu didn't hear Qian Duoduo's last words. After leaving Qian Duoduo's residence, he took out the map and took a look at it, then stopped a car and rushed to No. 18 Jingguang Road where Qian Duoduo said he was waiting.
When he arrived at his destination, it was exactly ten o'clock in the evening. No. 18 was a small courtyard alone. The lights were on in the courtyard. Looking at the closed door, Chu Yu thought for a while and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A man's voice sounded in the courtyard. Chu Yu didn't say anything, but just knocked on the door again with his hand.
"Come on, come on!" There was a sound of kicking footsteps in the courtyard. Soon, the door was opened a crack, and a young man showed half of his face. He looked Chu Yu up and down, and he asked with some displeasure.
: "You are mute, why are you knocking on the door in the middle of the night?"
"I'm looking for someone."
"There is no one you are looking for here."
"I haven't said who I'm looking for yet. How do you know the person I'm looking for isn't here?" Chu Yu asked.
"If I say no, there won't be." After saying that, the young man straightened up and wanted to close the door. At this moment, Chu Yu suddenly moved forward, reached into the room with both hands and grabbed the young man's neck, and while walking into the door, he pressed the young man down.
On the wall next to the door: "Is the Fire Qilin here?"
"Not here..." the young man said, glaring at Chu Yu. After he finished speaking, he wanted to shout, but Chu Yu covered his mouth. Chu Yu stretched out his hand to touch his lower back, and the dagger he carried when he went out was held in his hand.
The dagger was pointed directly at the artery of the young man's neck: "I'm asking you again, is the Fire Qilin here?"
Just now Chu Yu asked if Huo Qilin was there. The young man did not say that he did not know any Huo Qilin. This made Chu Yu know that the young man in front of him must know Huo Qilin, so he used a dagger to force him at this time. Based on Chu Yu's thoughts,
Since Tie Quansheng asked him to find this person named Huo Qilin, then the relationship between the other party and Tie Quansheng must be unusual. When he meets Huo Qilin, if he talks to him, the other party should be able to understand even if he uses force now.
Chu Yu's guess was correct. Feeling the chill on the dagger, the young man's expression changed. Because Chu Yu covered his mouth, he could only open his eyes wide and keep nodding. Seeing the young man acting like this, Chu Yu let go of his hand and said, "Bring it on."
I’m going to find Fire Qilin.”
A layer of cold sweat broke out on the young man's forehead. After nodding, he walked towards the small building in the courtyard. When he arrived on the second floor, the young man came to a room and stood at the door. Chu Yu heard voices inside the door.
The sound came out, along with some other sounds. As Chu Yu exerted force on his hand, the young man raised his hand and started to knock on the door.
"Who!"
"Brother Huo, it's me, Xiaomao."
"Damn it! If something happens, I won't come in and talk about it!"
Hearing this, Chu Yu punched the young man in his arms and knocked him out. After taking a deep breath, he put away the dagger and pushed open the door. As soon as the door was opened, the pungent smell of smoke hit his face, and the smoke in the room was full of smoke.
Around the corner, four people were playing mahjong, and there were thick piles of gold and silver coins on the table.
The sudden appearance of Chu Yu made the four people in the room stunned, but they reacted in an instant - a strong man facing the door stood up and asked Chu Yu who he was, then lifted the table and threw it at Chu Yu!
When the tabletop left his hands, he turned around and ran towards the window behind him, while the other three people rushed towards Chu Yu with chairs in hand.
