Xie Pingsheng added: "The mechanisms in my house are all in places that ordinary people will never encounter. For some reason, they encountered several in a row. When I came out, I had only one breath left.
, that’s it, they want to kill me.”
Jian Yu asked, "So you killed them?"
"That's not true, but I definitely want to run away." Xie Pingsheng didn't panic at all and answered calmly: "Then they died."
"Why don't you report it to the official?"
"To be honest, I don't dare." Xie Pingsheng said weakly: "I am just an ordinary citizen. I have never seen dead people... and they died under my agency. Although they came to kill me, I'm afraid I can't explain clearly."
Jian Yu sneered: "An ordinary citizen calmly killed seven people and buried them in front of his home? How could he go out and set up a stall without doing the same thing? Xie Pingsheng, you'd better tell me the truth, otherwise
If you do, the second is whether I can cause trouble for you. These people want to kill you. Seven of them are dead, and there will be seven or seventeen more to come. If you don't cooperate with me, your death will only happen sooner or later."
And secrets cannot be hidden. These killers were all killed by hidden weapons, not Xie Pingsheng himself. In other words, he killed the killer by surprise. If the other party had taken precautions, or simply found another place to kill,
He is very difficult to escape.
Jian Yu's words seemed to hit Xie Pingsheng's pain point, and his expression darkened.
Jian Yu didn't rush him. He took a chicken leg out of the earthen pot and put it in a bowl. He held it down with a pair of chopsticks in his left hand and peeled off the chicken skin with another pair of chopsticks in his right hand.
At this time, Bai Yue felt that Mrs. Jian was right. Jian Yu was indeed a person who could take care of others. He could think of some small things and do them very naturally. His wife would definitely be very happy in the future.
Jian Yu slowly peeled off the skin of the chicken and put it into Bai Yue's bowl.
"No more oil, let's eat." After Jian Yu finished all this, he looked at Xie Pingsheng again: "What, do you want to talk calmly here, or go to Dali Temple with me."
The words "Dali Temple" stimulated Xie Pingsheng and became the last straw that overwhelmed him. He lowered his head and pondered for a long time before finally making up his mind.
"I said."
Bai Yue stopped eating chicken and looked up at Xie Pingsheng.
Xie Pingsheng said: "My father has a huge secret."
This sentence is surprising but not surprising.
Xie Pingsheng's father, Xie Jiang, was a secret that the Shitu people buried in the capital city of Zhou Dynasty a few years ago. They had already found out about it, but they really didn't expect Xie Pingsheng to reveal such a big secret.
, after all, Xie Pingsheng doesn’t look like an honest person.
Jian Yu encouraged: "Go on."
Xie Pingsheng lowered his voice: "Now that Mr. Jian has found this place, he must have explored something, and I have nothing to hide. My father is not from the Zhou Dynasty. He migrated from Shitu with my grandfather when he was a child. My grandfather has
With the mission in mind, after the old man passed away, he gave the mission to my father."
This was a kept secret, but Xie Pingsheng said it so easily. I thought Jian Yu would be somewhat moved, but I didn't expect that he would remain calm.
Not only Jian Yu was calm, Bai Yue was also calm, as if the shocking news was no big deal.
Xie Pingsheng felt a little unsure, but he still said: "Later, my father suddenly became seriously ill, and the doctor said he could only live for a few more days. He called me to the bedside and said he had something to tell me."
As expected, it is passed down from father to son, and from son to grandson. Unless called upon, he will never show up.
Bai Yue had a strange idea at this time and frowned slightly.
Jian Yu said: "What exactly did he say, and did he leave anything behind?"
"He just told me his identity and said that now that he is dead, he wants me to inherit his identity." Xie Pingsheng frowned: "He also left me a box and said that everything I need to know is in that box.
"
Jian Yu immediately asked: "Where is the box?"
"It was burned long ago." Xie Pingsheng spread his hands.
"Burned?" Jian Yu was a little doubtful: "Why? Did you write down the contents for fear of being discovered?"
"I didn't even look at what was inside, so I burned it directly." Xie Pingsheng said: "I was born here and grew up here. Although I am a scholar, I always feel that I have nothing to do with the Zhou people.
the difference."
Bai Yue suddenly realized that the strange place was here, and it was not strange at all.
Xie Pingsheng said: "Although I don't understand government affairs, I still understand what detailed work is. It is endless danger and trouble. But I live a good life. Although I am not rich, I am stable and free. I don't want to do this for this kind of thing."
Things have ruined my life now."
"What about your father's last words?" Jian Yu was puzzled: "Aren't you afraid that he will die in peace?"
"Hi." Xie Pingsheng said with a smile: "I never believe this. When a person dies, he is dead. Everything is empty. There is no such thing as reincarnation of ghosts and gods. Just respect your elders and do your best while you are alive."
Xie Pingsheng's words resonated with Bai Yue's thoughts. She never expected that she could meet such an open-minded person in this era.
Jian Yu really couldn't understand it. After all, in their concept, the fate of parents is more important than Mount Tai. To fool even his dying father is really a waste of being a son of man.
However, Jian Yu was not concerned about Xie Pingsheng's character. What he was looking for was information about Xie Jiang, and no one knew whether the Xie Pingsheng in front of him was telling the truth or lies, or whether it was true or false.
Xie Pingsheng added: "I originally wanted to hide these things all my life and rot in my stomach. Until the killer came to the door the day before yesterday, I knew that this matter could no longer be hidden. I had to seek protection or solve it completely. But I was still thinking about it.
When it came time to make a choice, Master Jian came to the door."
After Xie Pingsheng finished speaking, he stood up.
He straightened his clothes, put his hands flat in front of him, and gave Jian Yu a big gift.
Jian Yu didn't move. He could afford Xie Pingsheng's courtesy. In this strict class society, he could still afford Xie Pingsheng's kowtow.
"Lord Jian." Xie Pingsheng said: "I was born and raised here, and I am a native of Zhou. I will never do anything to disgrace Da Zhou. Please protect me, Lord Jian."
For an ordinary person who does not know martial arts and does not want to get involved in complicated disputes, it is indeed best to seek protection from the court. Regardless of whether he can protect himself, it is always more powerful than protecting himself.
Jian Yu thought for a while and said with a smile: "Master Xie, please sit down. You got involved in this turmoil for no reason. You can see how cruel they are from the two consecutive groups of killers. You love Zhou Dynasty, and the court will naturally
Will protect you."
Xie Pingsheng seemed to be relieved. For a moment, the whole room was filled with a friendly and warm atmosphere. Only Bai Yue was silently drinking chicken soup.
