Chapter 95 I Love You Too Much
Ever since Gu Yu spoke Bai Qian’s name, even though Gu Qingheng was at Zhuo Fei’s house, he sat on the chair with a confused expression, thinking about these things.
What on earth was going on!
After Zhuo Fei finished practicing martial arts with effort, he quickly walked towards Gu Qingheng while wiping the sweat from his face with a cloth. He wondered what was wrong with his friend today?
He looked dejected, as if he had lost money.
Could it be that he was angry because his master went out to play and left him here?
If that were the case, Zhuo Fei felt it was necessary to explain on behalf of his master.
Even if his master went to enjoy a romantic moment for two people…
“Qingheng, what’s wrong? You’ve been sitting here motionless since you came to my house! Is there something difficult you’re facing?”
“I have a question. Although I already know the answer, I don’t know the reason behind it… Every time I think about it now, I feel immense pain!”
When Zhuo Fei heard Gu Qingheng’s worried question, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but sigh. The words that came out of his mouth made Zhuo Fei completely baffled, as he didn’t know what Gu Qingheng was talking about.
However, in this situation, he should advise Gu Qingheng to relax and not dwell on it.
Zhuo Fei had seen many people whose lives became messy because they dwelled on one thing. He didn’t want his friend to become like that and had to persuade him to let go of this obsession as soon as possible!
“Qingheng, there are countless difficult problems in this world that have no answers. With our strength, we can’t guarantee that we can solve them, but we can get used to anxiety and waiting in the process of pursuing the truth… Just as you said, I think you can’t continue like this, otherwise, the impact on you will be too great.”
“But, if I don’t think about it, I feel even more…”
“There’s a good saying, ‘The one who ties the bell must also untie it.’ Although I don’t know where you got the answer, if you want to know the reason, you have to start from where you got the answer. You’ll always figure out the pattern.”
Gu Qingheng couldn’t figure out the relationship between the Witch Priest and Bai Qian no matter how much he racked his brains.
However, after hearing Zhuo Fei’s words, Gu Qingheng felt enlightened. He realized he had been in a blind alley!
Since his brother-in-law knew that the Witch Priest cared about the Empress, he must know some unknown things to deduce the result… If he wanted to know the connection between the two, he had to start with Gu Yu.
However, Gu Yu would not speak easily this time.
Otherwise, he would have revealed the reason earlier and wouldn’t have deliberately left half of it for him to guess.
If he wanted to continue exploring the reason behind the truth, he had to follow his brother-in-law closely… If he guessed correctly, after dealing with Xu Wang, his brother-in-law would go to the capital.
At that time, he just needed to go with him.
“Zhuo Fei, you’ve really woken me up! I love you so much!”
“Ahem, although Qingheng, you are very cute, I already have a girl I like, so you should save it! I won’t surrender to your power, even if you use force…”
“…”
Just as Gu Qingheng was about to give Zhuo Fei a hug, Zhuo Fei quickly dodged to the side, hugged his arms, and put on an expression of a young woman being threatened by a tyrant. Coupled with his words, Gu Qingheng was speechless and twitched his mouth.
Just by looking at Zhuo Fei’s winking expression, he knew he was doing it on purpose!
When Gu Qingheng saw the chicken feather duster drying nearby, he immediately reached out and picked it up. His small face suddenly broke into a smile, and he started chasing Zhuo Fei.
“Zhuo Fei, you rascal, stop! Today, I will eliminate you on behalf of the sun!”
…
“Wang Li, are we really going to do this?”
“Alas! I can’t do anything about it. It’s a mission assigned by the clan leader, and it must be completed!”
“But we can’t do this! If we take action, we’ll be no different from those vicious bandits.”
Looking at the house in front of him, Wang Li sighed helplessly after hearing his companion’s words. But then he still covered his face with a black scarf, showing with his actions that he had made up his mind.
He must complete the mission.
Even if many lives were sacrificed, there was no other way at this moment.
It was just that the Gu family had hidden the disaster relief grain…
Speaking of which, Wang Li was not a direct descendant of the Wang clan, but was chosen from a collateral branch.
However, precisely because he was chosen, Wang Li received the best education and treatment, and his heart was filled with gratitude towards the Wang clan.
He was taught from childhood that the clan’s interests were paramount, and he would not hesitate even if he had to abandon his conscience at this moment.
As long as the Wang clan could escape danger and continue to prosper…
Even if they were asked to die, it would be no problem.
“Let’s go. It’s either they die today or we die! Your mother is still waiting at home, don’t make her sad.”
After hearing Wang Li’s words, his companion, who was initially unwilling to harm innocent people, was stunned on the spot.
If they didn’t bring back the grain this time, even if they were from the Wang clan, they would eventually face death.
To survive, they had to bring back the grain.
And, they could not let others find out.
It was best to disguise themselves as refugees to commit murder…
After Wang Li finished speaking, he didn’t say anything more. He raised a hand, drew the long saber at his waist, and led the others to quickly approach the houses.
Not long after, panicked screams and wails were heard, and the smell of blood permeated the surroundings.
Afterwards, looking at the bags of grain being moved out, a long trail was dragged on the blood-soaked ground, as if telling what they had just done.
Wang Li closed his eyes in pain. When he opened them again, he had returned to his usual calm.
“Hurry up, don’t leave any traces, and go to the next house immediately.”
With cold words devoid of any emotion, after finding all the grain, Wang Li and the others immediately split into two groups. One group secretly transported the grain to Lian Town, while he led people to continue plundering the families hoarding grain.
After Xu Wang bought specific information from others, Wang Li began to search for grain at the addresses on the list, one by one, to fill the deficit in the disaster relief grain.
Compared to searching for grain from ordinary people, these families hoarding a large amount of grain could provide more.
For the sake of secrecy, even after eliminating them, there would be no immediate news.
By the time people discovered it, the Wang clan would have already returned to the capital.
In this way, there would be no way to trace it back to the Wang clan.
As for these people who died tragically, they could only consider themselves unlucky for hoarding too much grain at this time, which led to the disaster of their entire family being wiped out.
