Master's Escape Plan

Under the condition of hope, Liu Mingqi's narration became more and more passionate: "My elder brother and I went to Huo Cheng's mansion to ask for someone, but the clinker steward insisted that Huo Cheng had never brought anyone back. My elder brother was so angry that he went to the gate of the county government office to attack him." Drumming for grievances... It's a pity, a pity."

Qin Shu knew what he was going to say next: "He didn't succeed, instead he was beaten up."

Nodding his head, Liu Mingqi looked sad and indignant, as if he had returned to the day when he was kneeling at the gate of the county government: "The county government came out and said that my elder brother slandered the county magistrate and ordered someone to beat us twenty times. I'm better, my elder brother is weak I didn’t get better after being beaten. I didn’t dare to stay in Shuanghu, lest Huo Cheng send someone to kill my eldest brother, so I took my eldest brother out of the city overnight, walked and avoided, and finally settled down in Shu’an City.”

There is no aura of other people in the courtyard. If Liu Mingqi has been living here, why is his elder brother not there?Unless... Qin Shu's eyes darkened slightly, knowing that this person is more likely to be ill than good.

Liu Mingqi's next words confirmed his conjecture. The elder brother of the Liu family dragged on for more than a month in Shu'an City, but finally passed away and passed away. Although Liu Mingqi's old father escaped, after many twists and turns, he came to Shuanghu County again with his son. The reunion was still discovered and beaten to death.

With such a cruel method, Liu Mingqi hated Huo Cheng to the bone, but he kept his words light, and no one had a job, so he couldn't avenge the murder of his father and brother.

Qin Shu didn't want to meddle in ordinary affairs, but what happened to Liu Mingqi aroused his sympathy, and he didn't want to see such an immoral and indiscriminate county magistrate still able to survive in his position and still have the hope of being promoted .

It is not difficult to kill Huo Cheng directly, the difficulty is how to intervene in it, the depth of the officialdom, Huo Cheng must have someone above him, so he dares to be so lawless, and he is not afraid of being denounced.

Qin Shu frowned, thinking inwardly; Liu Mingqi fell silent, looking at the two with hope, he really had no choice but to place his hope on others.

The two of them didn't speak again, they were thinking about each other, but Xie Linqing spoke, and he asked Liu Mingqi: "In this case, what did you go to Hualou for?"

By the way, Liu Mingqi is still in the mood to go to Hualou when such a deep hatred has not been reported?Qin Shu also looked at him.

Liu Mingqi lowered his eyes embarrassingly, and said, "I'm looking for Caiyan, Caidie's younger sister. I met her in Shuanghu. Wasn't my sister-in-law taken away by the county magistrate? After my elder brother died, I returned I went to Shuanghudong to hide in Tibet, hoping to find my sister-in-law, but unfortunately Huo Cheng's house is very strict, I have never seen my sister-in-law

After I came out, I heard that this girl had seen my sister-in-law, so I came all the way to find her. "

"Then what does Miss Caidie mean?" Qin Shu recalled Caidie's attitude towards Liu Mingqi, although she had the attitude of an accomplice, but she didn't protect Liu Mingqi, and she didn't have the same heart.

After hearing this, before Liu Mingqi spoke, Xie Linqing glanced at Qin Shu lightly.

Too bad... After being forced to go to Hualou to find a girl, Qin Shu knew that he had slipped his words and coughed lightly.

"Caidie...she doesn't want Caiyan to be involved, because she knows that Huo Cheng is powerful and she is afraid that Caiyan will be retaliated." Liu Mingqi sighed: "Why don't I worry, but I only found such a My sister-in-law's people, if the future is not slim..."

"Master Liu, what are your plans for the future?" Xie Linqing asked.

His face also seemed to be a little moved, the soft sunlight reflected in his eyes, and the eyes were even clearer. When he fixedly looked at people, the light in his eyes was like spring water warming people. Qin Shu, who had traveled through at first, couldn't stand it. At this moment, Liu Mingqi Unable to resist, she blushed inexplicably, turned her head away, and wondered how this fairy elder had such a good skin.

"Probably go to the capital. I've thought about it. If Huo Cheng is so arrogant, if he leaves Shuanghu, it's hard to guarantee that there will be no collusion with other forces in Hulu Province." Liu Mingqi's tone was a little heavy, and he said slowly: "I hope I can be in the capital." If I meet a noble person, or the emperor Shengming, I will be the master for me once, and I dare not ask for anything else."

What he said was very heartbreaking. His father and brother died one after another, his sister-in-law was robbed, but justice was delayed, which made people want to sigh.

The people who came to kill him must have been sent by Huo Cheng. This courtyard is no longer safe. Qin Shu gave some money and sent someone to rent a small courtyard on the other side of the city, so that Liu Mingqi could rest in peace and recuperate.

He didn't promise Liu Mingqi to help revenge, and neither did Xie Linqing.The monk pays attention to the result of cause and condition. Whatever cause is planted, it will be inextricably linked with this cause later, and even the result.If it is not necessary, monks are usually unwilling to be involved in karma. If they make promises to others but fail to keep them, they will become demons when they cross the tribulation and ascend, which is very dangerous.

After walking out of the courtyard, Qin Shu looked up at the setting sun, and slightly closed his eyes.

Living in this world, it is inevitable that he will be subject to many constraints. Even if he is as powerful as him, he is bound by the monk's rules and the way of heaven, and he does not do whatever he wants.But there is a glimmer of life left in the sky. To maintain the balance of the world, it will not be too strict. The reason why monks are allowed to practice in the mortal world is also the same.

The two returned along the stone road where they came, and the golden sunset spread on the stone road

, Pedestrians are getting less and less, some shops that closed early have been closed and locked, and the lanterns in front of the doors have not yet been lit.

"Master really wants to intervene in this matter?" Xie Linqing asked softly, walking beside Qin Shu.

Qin Shu's decision is not difficult to guess, one can get a glimpse of it from his expression and words.If he is determined to help Liu Mingqi, except for the suzerain, no one can help him.

Qin Shu nodded and did not speak. What made him a little curious was, what would Xie Linqing think?After all, I am not an aborigine in this world, even if I know the rules, I can't just sit idly by.But what about Xie Linqing?Can he understand himself?

He knew that Xie Linqing was born as a mortal, not a good seedling from a family of cultivators.The gap between monks and mortals is like a moat, the farther you go on this road, the farther you are from mortal life.When a monk obtains the Dao, proves longevity, and has an endless lifespan, can the love and hatred of mortals still move his heart?He is not old or dead, and has become eternal. Thousands of years later, when his enemy and partner pass away, he will still exist forever.

Unknowingly thinking about such a question, Qin Shu asked himself, if one day he returned to the original world, would he be able to adapt to the life of ordinary people again, accept birth, old age, sickness and death, and return to reincarnation?

Thinking of it for a moment, my heart was so depressed that even Xie Linqing didn't pay attention to calling him.

"Master." Xie Linqing called again. After Qin Shu raised his eyes to look at him, he continued: "If the master is sincere, the disciple will have no objection. It's just that the master is willing to listen to what others have to say before doing something. ?”

"I would like to hear the details." Qin Shu agreed.

Xie Linqing walked ahead, Qin Shu followed his footsteps and found that this was the way back to the inn: "What do you mean?"

"Master, come with me." Xie Linqing smiled, and when he arrived at the inn, he went directly to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, do you know the second young master Liu who was beaten last night?"

"How can you not recognize this!" The shopkeeper twisted his beard, and a mixture of pain and hatred appeared on his thin face.

Qin Shu and Xie Linqing looked at each other, and he understood what Xie Linqing meant.What Liu Mingqi himself said was an isolated evidence. Liu's father and brother Liu were dead, and his sister-in-law had disappeared. No one could verify that what he said was true.If he wanted to be safe, he still had to see what other people said about Liu Mingqi.

In the evening, maybe I can go to Baifang Building again and ask Miss Caidie.

Xie Linqing gave the shopkeeper a piece of silver and motioned him to go up and talk.

The shopkeeper understood, followed the two upstairs, and entered Xie Linqing's room.

"This Erlang of the Liu family, his original name was Liu Ming.

together.He is not from Shu'an, but a merchant from Jiang'an. "The shopkeeper seemed to be quite familiar with Liu Mingqi, and he spoke clearly: "He came to Shu'an around October last year, and he has been living in the city since then, only going out for a few days occasionally.Where to go, I don't know, but the place to go is not far from Shu'an. "

"Since he is Erlang, he has a big brother on his head. His big brother Shu'an, who came with him, had an enmity with someone, and he was seriously injured. I saw that Liu Erlang often came here to get medicine. Tongdu knew him. He was a hardworking person, and he even came to my inn to help for a few days. Unfortunately, unfortunately, his elder brother couldn't hold on after all. When the funeral was held, he resigned from me. I never saw him come in again after that." The shopkeeper must have sympathized with Liu Mingqi, and then babbled for a while about how diligent he was when he helped the workers, how much he loved his elder brother, how expensive the medicinal materials were and he never stopped taking the medicine.

After talking for a long time, the shopkeeper came back again: "After his elder brother passed away, I didn't hear that he stayed in a stable house. He always did part-time work for others. Later, he went outside and came back somewhere, and he was dressed in filial piety. , asked him, and he didn’t say anything.”

Qin Shu knew that this was about the time when Liu Mingqi returned to Shuanghu to reunite with Liu's father, but Liu's father was found and beaten to death by Huo Cheng's men.

"Later, he took off his filial piety and started spending time and wine, going to the flower building every night to find girls. Really, alas, he was trapped in the flower building by himself, and that is a harmful place!" The shopkeeper said here , The look of hatred for iron and steel appeared on his face again: "He is still a day laborer for others. Whenever he has money, he goes to the flower building to find girls, and looks for that...that colorful butterfly every day! Let me see, this is all fake. , If Cai Die has the heart, why not run away with him? If so much money is thrown out, the guests who should be picked up will still be picked up. Look, this is not harming people, what is it?"

The shopkeeper seemed to have some prejudice against Cai Die, but Qin Shu didn't answer.Comparing what this person said with what Liu Mingqi himself said, they can basically match, Liu Mingqi should not have lied to him.

After sending the shopkeeper away, Xie Linqing asked him with a smile: "I don't know what Master's next plan is?"

"I happen to be passing by Hulu too, why don't you follow me to see what kind of person Huo Cheng is?" Qin Shu said indifferently.
