Volume 1: Swan Goose Chapter 238: Tears, Rain and Linlings
Hu Qi stared at her with bright eyes and a gentle smile: "Xiaolu, things have reached the point where they are today. It's time for us to go back to the caravan and make a decision with Ma Huilan!"
Lu Ning pondered for a moment and nodded firmly: "Yes, originally I wanted to take care of Uncle Ye's face and didn't want to make things too ugly! But now that they have made things right, we don't have to be polite anymore!"
While the two were talking, Xia Yunqing's door was opened, and Mrs. Xia walked out with a haggard look.
When she saw the men and women in the courtyard, she forced out a smile: "You guys got up so early!"
Lu Ning turned around following the sound and saw Mrs. Xia, and ran over quickly: "I originally wanted to visit Mr. Xia early in the morning, but I was afraid of disturbing his rest. I wonder how he is doing now?"
Mrs. Xia's eyes moved slightly and she said sadly: "I just woke up, but I have been blaming myself deeply. I feel that instead of bringing the murderer to justice, I have killed so many people!"
Lu Ning and Hu Qi looked at each other and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Xia, take good care of Mr. Xia. Let's not disturb him for now! We still have some things to do today, and I'm afraid we won't be able to come back until later."
Mrs.
After saying that, he watched the two people turn and leave.
The two rode two divine horses, one white and one black, galloping across the vast sky and earth, leaving two clear strings of horse hoof prints on the flawless white snow.
When they reached the intersection, they reined in their horses and looked at the majestic red lacquer gate from a distance, but hesitated to move forward.
Hu Qi said warily: "Xiaolu, there are two more guards in front of the door. They must be guarding us."
Lu Ning nodded and said solemnly: "Well. It seems that Ye Guming is going to break up with me!"
Hu Qi asked again: "Today must be extremely dangerous, why not let Totuo come to help?"
Lu Ning frowned slightly and said: "If he comes, who can stop him from starting a fight with Ye Guming? Both sides will be hurt by then, and it will not end well! Besides, today we will face Ma Huilan, her picky
What a shame, if Toto hears about it, with his temper, he might not be able to help but kill her!"
Hu Qi nodded slightly and expressed deep agreement.
The two men reined in their reins and walked slowly toward the door.
The strong men guarding the gate heard the sound of horse hooves and followed the sound. They saw two horses riding side by side on the snow-filled road. One was red and the other was white. They were Lu Ning and Hu Qi.
Several people looked at each other and immediately stood in a row in front of the door, blocking the two of them from the door.
The two of them did not dismount, but looked down at the group of people with cold expressions.
Hu Qi said in a sarcastic tone: "Hey, isn't this the watchdog of the caravan? He is really dedicated to his duty!"
The purple-faced man at the head suppressed his anger and shouted loudly: "The general manager has ordered that you two have been expelled from the caravan. From now on, you are not allowed to step foot here again!"
Lu Ning laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "What nonsense! Hu Qi is not a member of the caravan, so how can he talk about expelling me? I, the young gang leader, was appointed by the old gang leader, so what qualifications does Ye Guming have to depose me!"
"
The purple-faced man looked troubled, and said with cupped hands: "Sorry, young gang leader! This is the order from Manager Ye. He said that you killed Elder Yun, just like killing your brothers and sisters, and you must not be let in! Otherwise, we will be expelled.
Go out!"
Lu Ning heard his sincerity and didn't want to make things more difficult, so he said: "Okay, I won't go in today. You go and ask Ma Huilan to come out. I have something to ask her!"
The purple-faced man hesitated and said: "This... I wonder why the young gang leader called the madam?"
Seeing that he refused to pass the message, Lu Ning took out the nine-section whip from his waist and said quietly: "On account of the fact that you just called me Young Gang Leader, I advise you, what is in front of you
There are only two ways: either you ask her to come out, and I will leave after I ask her questions! Or I rush in and question her myself! Just a few of you can't stop me!"
The purple-faced man was already timid because of Lu Ning's status.
But then he thought, if he called out Mrs. Ye, who did not know martial arts, and if she really got injured in a dispute with the young gang leader, it would be difficult for him to stay in the gang anymore.
At him
When she was in a dilemma, the door behind her was suddenly pushed open. A group of big men holding sticks surrounded Ma Huilan, who was wearing a red skirt and green jacket, and walked out of the door with their heads held high.
Ma Huilan's beautiful eyes, as bright as gems, stared at the young man on the horse, and said with a smile: "Brother Hu, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are so charming again! What a talented person!"
Hu Qi raised her head and smiled coldly: "You don't have to worry anymore, you and I are not the same people, and we can't go together!"
Ma Huilan covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "I can't understand what Brother Hu is saying!"
Then, she looked at Lu Ning with a half-smile and asked, "Why, I heard that the young gang leader asked me to question me. What advice can you give me?"
Lu Ning glanced at the people around her and asked, "Where is Qingfeng?"
She didn't want the young man to hear what happened today, so she asked.
When her son was mentioned, Ma Huilan became furious and said bitterly: "Young gang leader, since you have established a relationship with Hu Qi, please don't provoke my son again! He was bewitched by you that day and blocked your whip. He has been seriously injured so far.
Not healed yet. Don’t you think it’s not enough? Do you want him to sacrifice his life for you to be satisfied?”
Although Lu Ning was usually eloquent, she was still a young woman after all. Hearing Ma Huilan slander her like this, she couldn't help but blush with anger and tremble all over.
It was Hu Qi who took over the conversation and said sarcastically: "Mrs. Ye doesn't know how to behave, and does dirty things all the time. So when she sees her innocent daughter's house, she will inevitably feel resentful and insist on pouring dirty water on her."
Are you satisfied?"
When Ma Huilan heard what he said, her face turned red and white: "You two are flirting and flirting. Everyone can see it clearly. How dare you say that I slandered her?"
Hu Qi laughed and said, "We are two unmarried men and women, so what if we are flirting with each other? Unlike Mrs. Ye, she is already married to a husband who is upright and upright, but she is still not satisfied. Not only does she spend her money to support a young and beautiful actor
, and you even hooked up with the old and frail Elder Yun as a prostitute, your taste is really unique!"
"You!" Ma Huilan's oval face turned red. At a glance, she saw extremely surprised expressions on the faces of the people around her.
She couldn't help but chuckle and retorted: "Do you have any evidence for what you said? If you slander a woman's innocence for no reason, our master will definitely not let you off lightly!"
Hu Qi snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face: "Do you think that since the actor escaped and Elder Yun died, no one will expose your crime? I, Hu Qi, am the evidence! When I first arrived at the caravan, you did everything possible
Seduced me. After I scolded you away, you pretended to be the young gang leader and sneaked into my room in the middle of the night! How shameless!"
Lu Ning was startled and looked at Hu Qi with a red face and eyes full of surprise.
Hu Qi's face turned slightly red and she said softly: "It's a long story. I'll tell you in detail in the future!"
Lu Ning calmed down and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking to this kind of person! Ma Huilan, let me ask you, where did you take Ma San's treasure?"
Ma Huilan's heart trembled, but she pretended not to know: "What is Ma Sambo? I've never heard of it!"
Naturally, Lu Ning would not let her go: "Have you forgotten your cousin's name? Do you want me to call Ye Guming and ask him if he knows this person?"
Ma Huilan didn't take it seriously, and just said lightly: "So you are talking about my cousin! He is such an old man, so naturally he can go wherever he wants, and he will not report to me. How do I know about him?
Where?"
Lu Ning raised her eyebrows slightly and said coldly: "Although you and Ma Sanbao are cousins, they have a secret affair! If you don't even know where he is, no one in the world will know his hiding place."
!」
Hearing Lu Ning's shocking words, the brothers on the side were shocked, but because of Ma Huilan's identity, no one dared to say anything, let alone raise their eyes to look at her.
Ma Huilan was shocked: I didn't expect Lu Ning and the others to find out such a secret thing!
She snorted and said: "My cousin and I have grown up together since childhood. Our relationship is somewhat close, but it is not as bad as you said. I would like to ask you, you are a woman who keeps asking my cousin
What’s the purpose of going there?”
Lu Ning pointed at the horse
Hui Lan asked loudly: "You and Ma Sanbao colluded with the government to privately open iron mines. Because the mines were sealed, Ma Sanbao brutally killed dozens of people in an attempt to silence them! Now he is absconding in fear of crime, and the evidence is conclusive, how can you still
Do you dare to harbor a fugitive?"
As soon as these words came out, the spectators said "ah" and exclaimed in unison.
Listening to the conversation between the two of them just now, I was already frightened, and now that it is involved in a murder case, I am even more panic-stricken.
Ma Huilan was so angry that she also lost her temper: "Stop spitting here! You keep saying that the evidence is conclusive, then you show the evidence! Besides, are you a government official? Even if you arrest the criminal, it will not be your turn.
superior!"
Lu Ning's beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she said seriously: "You can deny everything that Hu Qi said just now! But that day I made a secret visit to the iron mine and saw you and Ma Sanbao appearing in disheveled clothes.
In front of everyone! I helped Mr. Xia seal the iron mine, and we arrested your cousin with our own hands. Every incident was witnessed by everyone present, so you can’t rely on him!"
Ma Huilan only gave her a sideways glance and didn't care: "Everyone in the iron mine has been killed, and the witnesses you mentioned are gone, how can you still accuse me?"
Lu Ning suddenly stopped talking, just stared at her in silence for a long time, and then sneered: "I just said that your cousin killed dozens of people, but I didn't say that everyone in the mine was dead. How did you know?
?」
Ma Huilan knew that she had said something wrong, so she simply changed her mind and shouted loudly: "Even if I know where Ma Sanbao is, but I refuse to hand him over, what can you do to me?"
Lu Ning flicked the silver whip in his hand and said solemnly: "Then don't blame me for breaking into the caravan today! Your subordinates can't stop me, and besides, they don't have the guts to stop me!"
After hearing what she said, everyone looked at each other in shock. Although everyone was carrying a stick, no one was willing to come forward.
Ma Huilan looked arrogant, not taking her seriously at all, and said loudly to the people on the left and right: "This is the Lingzhou branch, and it is Manager Ye who has the final say! He has given an order that these two people are not allowed to set foot in the caravan again.
Half a step, otherwise I will kill you and not bury you!"
Encouraged by her, everyone secretly sighed and had to take a few steps forward.
Lu Ning glanced at everyone with his clear black and white eyes, and said coldly: "It seems that you are definitely going to be my enemy today. Then when you start taking action later, don't blame me for not thinking about our usual friendship.
!」
As she said this, she tightened her hands on the nine-section whip and confronted everyone aggressively.
Just as the two sides were at war with each other, a deep and loud voice sounded from inside the door: "Stop it!"
Everyone looked at the place where the sound came from, and saw a tall man with a face like a jujube stepping out the door holding a big knife.
When Ma Huilan saw the person coming, all the blood on her face suddenly turned pale, and she couldn't help but tremble!
