Chapter 371

Qiu Huai was strangled by him, almost out of breath, his face turned red, and the whites of his eyes unconsciously rolled out.

Si Chen seemed to vent all his anger and remorse on Qiu Huai, with terrifying strength.

"Brother Sichen!" Gu Jingcheng spoke at the right time, stepped forward to hold his arm, and reminded him, "It is not a pity for him to die, and there will be no trace of Lingmei."

Hearing this, Si Chen seemed to calm down, his expression gradually cleared up, his strength suddenly relaxed, and he casually threw him aside.

"Cough cough...cough cough" Qiu Huai fell to the side in discomfort, coughing desperately.

He also knew that the opponents were all people with high martial arts skills, so how could a mere peasant in Qiuhuai save Yuanniang.

"Where is the cliff?" No matter how far away, no matter how difficult it is, he will bring his sister home. How can he bear to see her withered bones, trapped in a foreign country forever.

"At the foot of the mountain just north of Qingping Village, it's just that so many years have passed, and there are countless beasts in the forest, I'm afraid." Qiu Huai paused and said.

"Shut up," Si Chen said with a gloomy expression, even if there was only a ten-thousandth chance, he would find her.

"Brother Gu, I would like to have a few words with him alone?" Si Chen said, looking at Gu Jingcheng, and spoke lightly.

"Of course, Brother Sichen, please go ahead." Gu Jingcheng nodded, although he was puzzled, he still agreed.

Gu Jingcheng retreated, leaving only Si Chen, Qiu Huai and Yuen Long standing quietly at the door.

Qiu Huai was a little frightened, as if the moment when he brushed shoulders with death was still in front of his eyes, his expression was a little distorted, "My lord, I really don't know anything anymore."

"I haven't asked yet." Si Chen's face was expressionless, not at all like the gaffe just now, his eyes were slightly raised, and he seemed to be able to see into his heart when looking at people, "Does she have a child in her hands?"

".What. There is no child. The lady is alone, with a bundle on her back, containing gold and silver and a painting." Qin Huai's voice was firm.

Si Chen snorted lightly, "Ma'am, how do you know she is a lady? Say, what else do you know, and where is that child!"

Si Chen looked crazy, and grabbed his neck again, stronger than last time, Qiu Huai struggled to kick his legs, his face turned red, and he was powerless to fight back.

Qiu Huai made a small voice, desperately clapping Si Chen's hand, and when he felt that he was about to faint, Si Chen let him go.

"If you don't tell the truth, I promise you will suffer a hundred times, a thousand times more than now."

Qiu Huai complained incessantly, and once again regretted why he came to this capital city. He didn't enjoy any blessings, let alone being kidnapped every three days. It was really life-threatening.

"I said, I said," Qiu Huai said hastily, "that woman is indeed holding a baby. Those people seem to want to snatch the baby, and the woman desperately protects each other. During the fight, the baby lost her hand and fell off the cliff. The man was distraught, stabbed several times in his body, died, and then was thrown to the bottom of the cliff. I was afraid that my husband would take his anger on me, so I dare not say anything.”

Just listening to his description, Si Chen felt like a knife was piercing his heart. After a while, he stood up calmly, turned his back to Qiu Huai, and said lightly, "I will send people to Qingshui Town. If what you said is true, It will definitely be worse than death.”

"The villain doesn't dare." Qiu Huai hurriedly lowered his head, spoke weakly, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Watching him leave, Qiu Huai quietly breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that beautiful woman back then, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and decided to rot in her stomach for the sake of her own life.

Anyway, even if the man went to Qingping Village to investigate, the result he got was exactly the same as what he said. As for the woman's body, he would never find it.

Outside the door, Mingming looked at Si Chen worriedly, and said in a steady voice, "Master, are you alright?"

Si Chen shook his head slightly, "Send someone to Qingping Village, Qingshui Town, to investigate what Qiuhuai said, and ask the locals if anyone knows what happened back then."

"Master, do you not believe him?" Ming Lang lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice.

"It has been more than 16 years since what happened back then. The truth of the matter is only based on his one-sided words. I owe Yuan Niang. I will definitely take her home and will not let anyone who hurt her go." Si Chen's eyes were dark and unclear, but looking at them made people feel frightened.

"Yes! This subordinate understands. In addition," Yuen Long looked at him and said hesitantly, "There is news from over there that the man seems to be in poor health. Do you want to go back?"

Si Chen paused when he heard that, with complicated expressions in his eyes, and he snorted coldly after a long time, "He's lived long enough, he deserves to die."

The tone was indifferent like a rakshasa from hell, Mingming looked at him, sighed slightly, but said nothing after all.

Gu Jingcheng seemed to have been waiting for a long time, got up from the stone table and walked over, "Brother Sichen, how are you?"

"This matter is up to Brother Gu. The promise will be fulfilled when the subordinate returns from Qingshui Town." Si Chen looked at him and said with a half-smile.

"Brother Gu, you're welcome. It's an honor for Gu to have you as a friend. I wonder if there will be a chance to cooperate again in the future?" Gu Jingcheng looked at him with a greedy smile.

With such a strong backing, defeating the imperial city and retaking the rivers and mountains is nothing more than a matter of course and easy.

As if understanding the calculation in his mind, Si Chen gently twitched the corner of his mouth, "Forget it, my friend. You and I are just cooperating. I know what you want to do, but please don't count me in. It's just a matter of entering the capital." It's for the sake of giving up my sister, if there is no accident, we won't meet again in this life."

Si Chen looked at him and said word by word, "As for the situation in the capital city, I'm not interested at all. The [-] soldiers and horses are only rewarding Brother Gu. As for how and where you want to use them, you can use them according to your orders." .”

Gu Jingcheng paused, he didn't expect him to speak so bluntly, so he also understood his determination, nodded and said, "Since Brother Si Chen is so frank, it's not easy for Gu to force it, there is no righteousness in business! "

Si Chen twitched the corners of his mouth slightly. He also knew a lot about this down and out emperor. To be honest, he didn't think highly of Gu Jingcheng. It has nothing to do with him, a small country, he still doesn't like it.

"Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!"

A milky cry came from the side courtyard. The little dumpling made of powder and jade was wearing an exquisite little gown, with a tiger head cap on his head, big smart eyes, and exquisite facial features. He looked like a girl. The doll is generally beautiful and cute.

"Nian'er?" Gu Jingcheng was slightly stunned, looked over, and hugged him naturally, "What's wrong? Can't sleep?"

"I'm sorry, master, the little master heard your voice and was clamoring to see you!"

The waiter who followed behind trembled.

"Don't disturb the distinguished guest, take Nian'er down first." Gu Jingcheng glanced at Si Chen apologetically, but the latter's eyes fell on Nian'er.

"Yes" the waiter stepped forward and wanted to hug Gu Liunian, but the latter firmly hugged Gu Jingcheng's neck, pouted his mouth, "When will Uncle take Nian to find his parents?"
