who and the rivers and lakes

After Zhu Tianxiang left, the night outside the window became darker, but Zhan Zhao and the others were still sitting in the hall without feeling sleepy.

Bai Xinyu lowered her head, and said after a while: "I still think that the second sister's death is not worth it. What she was most worried about when she was alive was Big Brother Zhu. If Big Brother Zhu dies, Second Sister has no reason to commit suicide again."

Zhan Zhao pondered for a while, and said, "Mrs. Zhu did not commit suicide."

Bai Xinyu looked up at Zhan Zhao, and said, "No? How did Hero Zhan know?"

Zhan Zhao said: "Before he died, Yin Tongming mentioned Mrs. Zhu's death. Although Mrs. Zhu is both a Bai family member and a Zhu family member, he didn't intend to kill Mrs. Zhu and the child in her belly."

Bai Xinyu was surprised: "Second sister is pregnant?"

Zhan Zhao asked, "Miss Bai didn't know that Mrs. Zhu was pregnant when she died?"

Bai Xinyu shook her head and said: "I don't know, the second sister never told me, she was just terribly afraid, even when she met me, she seldom spoke." She said sadly: "That Yin Tongming is really cruel, The second sister doesn't know anything, she is innocent, and the child is even more innocent, why would he bear such a murderous hand?"

Zhan Zhao said slowly: "Perhaps Mrs. Zhu was not killed by Yin Tongming. At that time, he had already regretted it. He only said that after killing Zhu Tianwei and Bai Qingfeng, he wanted to stop. According to what he said before his death, he I didn't know Mrs. Zhu was killed."

"If it wasn't Yin Tongming who killed the second sister, who would it be?" Bai Xinyu looked at Zhan Zhao in surprise.

Sheng Donglai also looked at Zhan Zhao in surprise.

Zhan Zhao said: "Before Yin Tongming died, he personally admitted that he was the mastermind, and that he bought and killed all the people. He was emotional at the time, and his words were inconsistent. It was really difficult to judge which sentence was true and which sentence was false."

Bai Xinyu burst into tears, choked up and said, "Even though Brother Zhu and Brother died unexpectedly, they did something wrong, and they should have paid the price, but Second Sister is kind and cowardly, fearful of her husband like a tiger, so she will be killed for no reason. ?”

Zhan Zhao thought for a while and said, "I don't know what else Madam Zhu was afraid of before her life?"

Bai Xinyu said: "As far as I know, what she fears the most is Big Brother Zhu. Once, when I went to see her, her complexion changed drastically, and she said that she had gone out at night, discovered a secret, and was threatened by someone. I asked her for details. She just cried and said that she would never tell me, otherwise she would harm me as well as elder brother." She raised her eyes to look at Zhan Zhao and said, "Could it be that the second sister accidentally found out that elder brother and elder brother Zhu robbed and wiped out the family? Brother Zhu threatened not to speak out?"

She looked at Zhan Zhao, but Zhan Zhao didn't notice it, and kept bowing his head in thought.

A maid came in softly, carefully put a bowl of hot soup on the coffee table beside Zhan Zhao, and said softly, "Hero Zhan, the soup is ready, please use it?"

Zhan Zhao looked up at her, smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you."

The servant girl blushed immediately, bowed to bless her again, then turned and retreated.

Sheng Dong came to see the hot soup, smelling the fragrance, he leaned his head over and asked, "What kind of soup, why are you only given one, we don't have any?"

Bai Xinyu gave him a white look, and said, "That's because Zhan Hero was poisoned, this soup is for Zhan Hero to recuperate his body."

Sheng Donglai snorted and said, "I was injured too, why didn't Zhu Zhuangzhu never care about me so much?"

"How do people value Big Brother Zhan? Why are you so jealous?" Bai Xinyu smiled at him, squinted at him, and said, "Besides, during the time you were injured, did you drink too little nourishing soup?"

Sheng Donglai immediately smiled, moved closer, and said, "I will never forget the soup you cooked carefully."

As soon as he spoke, he saw Zhan Zhao's smiling eyes. Although he always boasted that he had the thickest skin, he was a little blushed, and hurriedly straightened his body and sat down again.

Bai Xinyu also knew that he had forgotten his feelings just now, so he immediately withdrew his sweet smile, and his cheeks blushed.

Zhan Zhao picked up the soup and took a sip, it was really delicious, it can be seen that the person who made the soup put a lot of effort into cooking it.He took another sip, suddenly his heart moved, his face was solemn, and he slowly put down the soup bowl.He looked at the soup bowl without blinking, as if he saw the strangest object in the world.

Sheng Donglai and Bai Xinyu noticed that his complexion was different. They looked at him and then at the bowl of hot soup that was still fragrant. Sheng Donglai asked, "What's wrong? The soup doesn't taste good?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head and said, "No, the soup is delicious."

Sheng Donglai asked again: "Then is there anything weird in this soup?"

Zhan Zhao looked at them, forced a smile and said, "I'll be away for ten days."

Sheng Donglai nodded immediately, and said, "That's right, Miss Ding disappeared, and you disappeared too. The guy from the old teahouse who saw you last said that you walked onto the street covered in blood, and then disappeared."

Zhan Zhao said, "I was poisoned by the silver needle."

"Silver needle?" Sheng Donglai interjected, "The kind of silver needle that poisoned Zhu Tianwei?"

Zhan Zhao nodded and said, "It's that kind of silver needle."

Sheng Donglai looked Zhan Zhao up and down, and saw that although Zhan Zhao's complexion was abnormally pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, his face was still smooth without any scars.With a face full of disbelief, he said: "Don't say that the silver needle is poisonous, but the silver needle itself shot out by the mechanism can shoot people into a sieve, how did Brother Zhan avoid the silver needle? "

Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao still had lingering fears in his heart, and said slowly, "I was lucky, I escaped the silver needle in time, but I was hit by one on the leg."

"Oh, that's how it is." Sheng Donglai heaved a sigh of relief, stretched out his thumb, and said in admiration, "Brother Zhan is indeed extraordinary in martial arts. The silver needles issued from the cylinder are so powerful and fast that even a top expert who has been through the entire rivers and lakes many times is also a master." No one can dodge it, but you dodge it, how can you be lucky, if you don't have extraordinary vigilance and response, how can you escape under the silver needle?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head and said, "I'm ashamed to say that I couldn't avoid it at first, but Yin Tongming's words before his death made me alert and prepared myself first."

He suddenly stopped talking, and there was another doubt in his heart.

If Yin Tongming had to kill someone because Zhan Zhao exposed his identity, why did he say sorry repeatedly before doing it, as if deliberately arousing Zhan Zhao's vigilance?And after one attack failed, instead of continuing to deal with Zhan Zhao, he turned the needle and committed suicide instead?Before he died, why did he deliberately ask his mother and young children to meet Zhan Zhao?Could it be that he wanted to tell Zhan Zhao that he really repented for what he had done, and hoped that Zhan Zhao could take care of his mother and child?Or maybe he has another last resort?
