Chapter 9: One Thought Becomes a Demon

Jiang Wenfei hadn't slept for two whole nights. From the moment Bai Guang was taken away, the uneasiness in his heart was like water on a charcoal fire, boiling more and more, his mind was buzzing, what happened half a year ago was revolving around The same thing happened in his mind over and over again... The aunt who always loved him was lying in a coffin with bruises on her face, the uncle who never came to the door began to borrow money every three days, and once, He heard that person humiliating his long-dead aunt in front of his father, without the slightest bit of guilt.

That person never felt guilty at all!

But at that time, he didn't intend to kill Li Shousi, and he never even thought about it.Even when the master told him that he was going to give Li Shousi the elixir of healing medicine passed down from his ancestors, Yulu Pill, he just felt puzzled and angry... When did that killing intent arise?

Was it when Taibaiju saw Li Shousi eat crabs and retorted at his own advice, or when he accidentally saw the dosage and effect of Hanyusan in the master's medical books?He still can't remember it until now, the only thing he can remember is the anxiety when he secretly prepared the pill, the hands that were so nervous and trembling when he changed the elixir in the bottle, and the look on Li Shousi's face when he finally took the medicine. The way it is taken for granted.He didn't know if he wanted to kill Li Shousi, he only knew that a person like Li Shousi really deserved his death.

But the dosage of Hanyu San was so light that he wasn't even sure if the medicine would kill Li Shousi.When he heard that Li Shousi would no longer go to Taibaiju to eat crabs, he even breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe he could visit Li Shousi one day and take the opportunity to exchange the medicine...

It's just that he hesitated all the time, and this hesitation lasted until Li Shousi's death.

Li Shousi died on the day he made an appointment with his master in the restaurant. When the master returned to the pharmacy, his heart was in his throat, but the master didn't say anything. He thought, maybe Li Shousi's own life was short, and retribution should be given. head off.

This idea completely collapsed when he heard that the government had locked up Master as a suspect.

In the end, Li Shousi died by his own hands.

However, the government mistakenly regards Master as a suspect and puts him in death row. For the current plan, only by going to the government to confess his guilt can he rescue Master.However, the government has always paid attention to evidence, how can he make the government believe his words?

Jiang Wenfei tried to calm himself down, while thinking, while pacing back and forth, he didn't know how many circles he had walked, when he looked up, he saw Muchen, dressed in black, sitting at the table.

Jiang Wenfei didn't even notice when she came in.

Since entering the room, Muli has never left Jiang Wenfei's eyes for a moment. It was the first time she saw someone pacing in circles with such concentration. She sat here for a whole cup of tea, and even picked out the wick , did not attract the attention of this Young Master Jiang.

Meeting Jiang Wenfei's shocked gaze, Mu Li sighed inwardly, Jiang Wenfei finally saw her.

After going over what she was going to say several times in her mind, Muli smiled at Jiang Wenfei, showing her white teeth, and said, "Young Master Jiang, sit down."

The shock in Jiang Wenfei's eyes quickly turned into calm. He didn't show the surprise that Mu Li expected, as if he wasn't too surprised by Mu Li's arrival.

Muli looked at Jiang Wenfei and sat down with his robe lifted up naturally, and greeted Muli naturally: "Mu shopkeeper, are you here all right?" He sighed silently in his heart: As expected of the old man's son, he looks like a man when the sky falls. A calm look about my business.But since Jiang Wenfei was so calm, she simply cut to the chase, raised her eyes and said, "Mu Li is here today to bring a few words to Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Wenfei finally showed a nervous expression, he took a light breath, and then asked: "Who entrusted the girl? What did you say?"

Mu Li smiled slightly, and said: "Young Master Jiang, please be safe and don't be impatient. Before saying these few words, Mu Li still has a few questions for Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Wenfei said in a deep voice: "Please tell me, Miss Mu, who entrusted me with this visit, otherwise I will forgive Jiang for being difficult to be honest with each other."

Mu Li raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and then said: "Since Mr. Jiang insists, how dare Mu Li hide it. This interruption is due to the entrustment of Master Bai to send a few words to Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Wenfei subconsciously asked, "What are you talking about?"

Mu Li laughed, his eyes were bright as if he had rubbed starlight in, and his voice was soft and gentle: "Mr. Jiang, don't be impatient. Although your father is in prison, there is still room for loopbacks. Whether you can get out of the catastrophe depends on the Did Young Master Jiang cooperate?"

Jiang Wenfei's heart was shocked, and it was only when he realized that Muli had called his father twice in succession, obviously trying to test it, but he didn't make any reaction, and a fool could see that he was acquiescing.I have never disclosed my relationship with my father to anyone, and the girl in front of me obviously came prepared.Jiang Wenfei secretly clenched his fists. The identity and purpose of the Muchen in front of him was unclear, but what was revealed in his words was definitely not friendly.It's just that with her martial arts skills alone, I am afraid that I am no longer an opponent. It seems that if I want to deal with her, I can only use tricks. Shopkeeper Mu just asks."

Mu Li stretched out his hand and brushed the broken hair beside his ear, raised his eyes and smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang, you and Shopkeeper Bai moved to Kaifeng City 21 years ago, right?"

Jiang Wenfei's eyes fell on Muli's face, as if he was thinking about something long ago, and he was silent for a while before answering: "That's right, it was exactly 21 years ago."

Muchen lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "21 years ago, Mr. Jiang was still an eight-year-old boy, right?"

Jiang Wenfei glanced at Muli up and down, and suddenly gave a low laugh, as if he saw something interesting, and his voice was calm and deep: "Although Jiang was young at that time, he still remembered something, you It's very similar to your mother."

There was a "hum" in Mu Li's head, and his fingertips trembled slightly uncontrollably, thinking, so Jiang Haohao didn't hide anything from his son, and Jiang Wenfei knew what happened 21 years ago.This idea made her a little confused, the kind of a pie that fell from the sky and fell into her mouth. She felt that she had never been so close to the truth 21 years ago, but the change was so sudden that she was a little bit confused. Don't dare to come any closer.

Mu Li twitched the corners of her mouth, barely showing a natural smile, and said lightly: "It turns out that Mr. Jiang still remembers my mother, but my mother died early. I am ashamed to say that Mu Li herself was vague, and her memory I don't know. But you and I have a close relationship, and we can still meet after many years, so it can be seen that fate is one thing, and it is really interesting."

Jiang Wenfei raised his eyes, his eyes were dark, and said slowly after hearing the words: "Miss Mu seems to be not very clear about what happened 21 years ago?"

Muli's heart jumped twice, but he looked at Jiang Wenfei calmly for a moment, raised his eyebrows and said, "Young Master Jiang, what you mean is that Mr. Jiang knows more about Muli's family affairs?"

Jiang Wenfei didn't speak, but tapped lightly on the wooden table a few times with his slender fingers, and there was an acquiescence.

Mu Li gritted his teeth, and said with a smirk: "Since this is the case, Mr. Jiang should talk about it, so that Mu Li can know about his family affairs."

Jiang Wenfei's heart is far from being as calm as it appears on the surface at the moment. Mu Li's identity, he had only vaguely guessed before, that sentence about her mother, now thinking about it, it was like gambling, but in the end he won.

There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of Jiang Wenfei's mouth, and his expression was light and authentic: "Ms. Mu has met my father, it seems that my father has never told me, so Ms. Mu made her idea on Jiang, right?"

What does it mean to toast without eating fine wine, what does it mean to shine when given some sunshine? Did Jiang Wenfei dare to put his nose on his face because he lived a few years older than himself?Mu Li gritted her teeth, and kept telling herself in her heart that Jiang Wenfei must be calm and comforted first. She endured with a knife on her head, and endured for a while. He raised his hand and turned the table over, clapped his hands after he finished, and gave Jiang Wenfei a provocative smile condescendingly, and said coldly: "Mr. Jiang, there is an old saying that those who know the current affairs are outstanding, and those who are now in prison are not My father, take care of yourself." After speaking, he turned his head and left, and when he reached the door, Jiang Wenfei's restrained voice came from behind:

"Ms. Mu will do Jiang a favor first. After that, Jiang will tell all the past 21 years ago."

A smile slowly appeared on Muchen's face hidden in the darkness, and he said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"Take me to my father."

**********************************************************************************

For a whole day, Douzi felt that something was wrong with Muchen. How should I put it, Muchen seemed to be in a state of absent-minded excitement.

The first time Douzi saw their proprietress today was when he came out to open the door of the restaurant early in the morning. After he put down the latch, he turned his head and saw their proprietress sitting behind the counter of the accountant, looking at him without saying a word. The two eyes are dark and dark, how do you say that word?It's like two bottomless wells...

Douzi was so frightened that all the hairs on his body "brushed" and stood upside down, and he smacked his lips for a long time before he made a sound, and he bravely greeted Mu Li: "Boss, you woke up very early today. "

According to Douzi's later description, when Muli heard his words, the two ghostly lights in his eyes went out instantly, and he rolled his eyes and said, "Is it early? You can't even hear the sun with your snoring." How dare you say you got up early after going down?"

Beans are relieved.He felt that their lady boss might have been bewitched by something just now, but!Note this but!Because of his appearance, his masculinity and uprightness must have driven away the evil spirit in the eyes of their proprietress, which allowed the proprietress to return to normal.

Douzi breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to tell his boss a short vacation that couldn't be shorter, but his back-to-normal boss gave Douzi a fluttering look, then suddenly stood up, thump, thump, thump Went to the backyard.Leaving Douzi alone, choking the words in his throat, dumbstruck in the cool morning breeze...

However, Dou Zi was not able to be dumbfounded for long. After a while, Dou Zi was greeted by Fat Li, who was also stunned. Fat Li walked to Dou Zi like a ghost, and said to Dou Zi in an even more erratic voice. : "Dou'er, I think our proprietress is going to let me pack up..."

Early in the morning, this was really a double shock, and Dou Zi heard a "crack" in his head, and stuttered: "This...this, that, how... how do you say it?"

Fat Li's eyes were resentful, and his tone was even more resentful: "She kicked me out of the kitchen."

In the next day, according to Douzi's close observation, even when cooking, Muchen's eyes were floating, obviously absent-minded, which can be judged from the dishes she cooked.The guest ordered spicy diced chicken, but she spent a long time making egg custard.Doudou tried to explain clearly to her with a mournful face, but she was refuted mercilessly by Muchen, and she also said firmly: "Autumn is dry, what kind of spicy chicken do you eat? When you see it, your stomach fire rises. Tell that person, my Flavored Furong and Egg White are hot and nourishing, and they are more beautifying and beautifying than spicy chicken.”

The corners of Douzi's eyes twitched, and after muttering for a long time, he finally went out with a fearless spirit.

After finally staying up until closing time, Dou Zi watched Mu Li go back to the room like a great god, and chanted "Amitabha", thinking a little angrily in his heart. The proprietress told him to pack up and leave, and he had a nervous breakdown and died first.

Seeing Muchen's figure disappear around the corner of the stairs, Douzi finally heaved a sigh of relief, and ran back to the room to sleep.

On the second floor, Mu Li closed the door with his backhand, looked at Jiang Wenfei inside, and said in a low voice, "It's getting late, we're going to leave."

**********************************************************************************

It's really a different scene in the cell late at night. The prisoners are all sleeping on their backs, and the sound of snoring is loud.Jiang Wenfei followed closely behind Muli, carefully avoiding the sleepy-eyed guards under Muli's reminder, but he still couldn't calm down in his heart.

When he saw Muli for the first time in Taibaiju, he only vaguely felt that it looked familiar. It wasn't until last night when she was dressed in cold black and raised her eyebrows to look at him, with a faint smile hanging from the corner of her mouth, that he didn't know. Suddenly bumped into that long-sealed memory, 21 years ago, it seemed to be the same face, with a first-class smile on its own, but said such heartbreaking words.At that time, he was only an eight-year-old child, and he didn't understand those words, but he also remembered that person's eyebrows and eyes in his little heart.He thought that the incident should have been over long ago, but unexpectedly, 21 years later, he saw this almost identical face again.

Jiang Wenfei looked down at Muchen who was walking in front, and felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart. The seemingly strong girl in front of him is so calm and decisive now. If she hadn't had those bad pasts, she should be right now at her age. It's innocent and silly.What Muli said last night is a trick of fate, and it is indeed a trick of fate. If she really learns the truth 21 years ago, will she regret the effort she has made to find the truth now?

The author has something to say: Jiang Xiaofei, you lied to Xiao Mumu so much, believe it or not, Xiao Mumu will slap you into the wall when the time comes? (*^__^*)...
