"This...how could it be?" Geng Zhengxiang muttered, as if he had lost his soul, he withdrew his hand as if struck by lightning, and soon looked inward again, with a dull expression on his face.

Seeing that his expression was different, Qixian stepped forward to take a look, and suddenly became even colder. She turned her head and looked at Cui Youde and Zhao Ping meaningfully, "Did you fall to death?"

Zhao Ping was still stubborn, and snorted, "He just fell to his death, what?"

Cui Youde already sensed that something was wrong, he hesitated for a moment, but he still came forward slowly, seeing the corpse, his legs gave way and fell down, "This is impossible! I, we really didn't do anything!"

When the little gangster also saw the situation in the pit, the three of them could no longer calm down. Killing people is nothing compared to robbery, so they just waited to be stabbed in the head!

The three of them thought wildly for a moment, Cui Youde, who had been in charge of the Chen residence for many years, was smarter than the other two, after a second thought, he quickly scrambled to Qixian's feet, grabbed his clothes, "Hero Mingjian , We really didn’t kill people. Heroes, heroes must learn from each other!”

He was howling so terribly, probably the only way to mourn the death of his own son, but unfortunately no one would be moved by such moving acting skills at the moment.

Qi Xian gently but firmly pulled out the hem of her clothes from Cui Youde's hands, looked down at the man on the ground whose scenery was no longer there, and there was a flash of pity in her eyes.

This pity is not for the crying old man, but because the man in front of him, at this moment, still has no guilt or apology for the deceased, but only worries and fears about his future life.

Presumably that little gangster Zhao Ping didn't care about the poor dead boy who was only in his teens. He might even hate that the other party's death ruined his long-cherished life of rich wealth and spending a lot of money.

Maybe at this moment, only the coachman really regretted the deceased, but so what?Everything is empty after death.

The so-called pity, sympathy, anger, sorrow, the boy who had passed away didn't need any of it—if he needed anything else, it should be justice.

Returning to Jinguan City from Simushan, Cui Youde, Zhao Ping and Geng Zhengxiang were sent directly to the government, together with Chen Yingxiang's body.

It was a pair of two times, only to find out that Cui Youde had never been there before when Chen Hongwei ordered the housekeeper Cui to go to the government to search for people.

He just walked around the gate of the yamen to put on a show, which is why the kidnapper's letter came so "just in time" when Chen Hongwei planned to go there in person.

Seeing the three of them being taken away one by one, Qixian stood quietly on the street for a long time, until someone started to look at him, then he turned to look at Wen Nianyuan, "Where is the inn?"

Noticing the tiredness in his eyes, Wen Nianyuan could hardly bear to reach out to smooth his brows.He knew that his eyebrows must be frowning at this moment, but in the end he just said: "The Chen family, you don't plan to go?"

"Well, I dare not."

Wen Nianyuan was shocked, he couldn't believe his ears, what did he hear just now?This man, said he dare not...

Sometimes he even thought that Mr. Qixian was about to lose the emotions related to fragility as a person, so that he seemed so indifferent and meaningless.

It wasn't.

It's just hidden too deep, sometimes even I forget those moments.

The two had their own thoughts, they didn't know how they returned to Wen Nianyuan's inn, and after arriving at the inn, Qi Xian stayed in his room by himself, without taking a step for three days in a row.

During this period, news from Jinguan City came one by one.

The clerk of the yamen examined the body of the young master of the Chen family.

There were signs of beatings and abuse on his body, and many joints were broken, but because the body was burned and buried directly, it is difficult to verify. Basically, it should be the body that was burned after being beaten to death, but I don't know why. The reason was that it was half burned and buried again.

Then Cui Youde, Zhao Ping, and Geng Zhengxiang, who were wearing shackles, were interrogated.

The case was well known on the street, and the whole city was filled with righteous indignation. On the day of trial, people flocked to the gate of the yamen, shouting excitedly and demanding that the murderer be punished severely.

The three of them were almost dragged into the hall. In just a few days, the three of them almost lost their human form. They must have suffered a lot. To tear up the ticket, I wanted to destroy the corpse, but later I was afraid and buried it.

In addition, there was the box of land deeds of bank notes. Zhao Ping explained the location, and the government sent people to search for it, but found nothing. But he always said that he only knew that one place, so he didn't find the whereabouts of so many belongings in the end.

Some people suspected that Zhao Ping had already gambled away all the money. According to his temperament, this was very possible, so he had to let it go.

The three of them were finally sentenced to be executed by Qiuhou Wen, and they were sent to prison to be executed.

It is said that when Geng Zhengxiang was dragged down, he begged others to take care of his seriously ill daughter who was left alone at home, which caused countless scolding and spitting. Only a few people showed pity, but no one would take over.

Especially those who are close to Geng Zhengxiang know that he lost his wife in his early years, and the only daughter in his family was a sick child. He spent an unknown amount of money seeking medical treatment all these years, it is simply a bottomless pit.

Some people speculate that the honest coachman took the risk this time because his daughter's condition has deteriorated again. Everyone knows that it will cost countless money to hire a good doctor and take good medicine.

It's a pity that this time he was sent to prison. I'm afraid his daughter will starve to death before she dies of illness.

The remaining Cui Youde only yelled a word of injustice, and was beaten unconscious without mercy, and was dragged away on the ground like a corpse.

White lanterns were hung up in Chen's house, and all the decorative clothes were replaced with white. There was a loud cry, Mrs. Chen cried day and night, and the cry could be heard from far and near, especially at night.

When Wen Nianyuan told Qixian these things, he just stood in front of the window, looking at the lush forest outside, his eyes were empty, as if he had never put anything in his chest, and just watched everything indifferently.

When he heard the word "injustice" from Cui Youde, a sneering smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Did he say he was wronged?"

Seeing his expression, Wen Nianyuan suddenly felt depressed.

He didn't know why, but suddenly reached out and pinched Qi Xian's face, forced his gaze to his side, and said loudly: "Enough! What are you worrying about?! No one in this world will be correct for a lifetime! "

Qixian looked at Wen Nianyuan in surprise, although this person has always been cold and hard, but he puts more emphasis on dealing with others and other things, when facing him, he can always take it easy.

This look is rare...but it also has a sense of presence.

What did he say about him?Brooding?Qixian Wenwen lowered her eyelashes, looked at the hand that was still pinching her face, did she have any grudges?As for that child from the Chen family?

It turned out that it was not just unwillingness.

"Do you know." He suddenly opened his mouth slowly, "I thought... I could save the next one."

"Who do you think you are?" Wen Nianyuan gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Are you a god? A saint? Do you have to save all those people in this world?"

Qi Xian was taken aback.

Wen Nianyuan approached him further, almost pulling him into his arms, but his tone was even worse, "The Chen family is extremely rich, but they have no sense of crisis at all. Even if you don't come here, won't someone plot against his family?"

"There are so many people in the Jianghu, the city, and countless conspiracies and schemes are happening every moment of every day. Are the places you haven't been to all calm?"

Facing the aggressive Wen Nianyuan, Qi Xian leaned back slightly, just about to say something, but Wen Nianyuan didn't allow him to say more, and pressed him again.

"You understand people's hearts, but there are many right and wrong people in the world of mortals. Can you guarantee that everyone can see through their minds? Can everyone act according to your wishes? Don't make mistakes for yourself-but don't Too presumptuous, brother."

After being scolded like a storm, Qixian gradually loosened up. Wen Nianyuan didn't show any anger, but instead made him wake up. He let out a long breath and said softly: "Yes, we are all just It's just people."

Legends are only passed on from word to mouth, and there are only mortals in this world.

His thoughts gradually cleared up, and he lowered his head to see clearly the situation between Wen Nianyuan and him. It was an ambiguous posture, too close, so close that the untouched skin seemed to feel a strange feeling.

The atmosphere was too mysterious, and Qixian's half-smile expression seemed infinitely seductive, Wen Nianyuan's head was blank, and he continued to lean forward involuntarily, with a vague fragrance wafting from the tip of his nose.

It was the smell of his brother's hair.

At that moment, it was like being enchanted by a demon, making people lose all reason.

Just when he was about to sink completely, a cold hand suddenly stretched out and pressed against his forehead, completely blocking his way forward.

Qixian pressed his palm against his forehead, tilted his head and looked at him for a moment, then pushed him away slightly, "What nerves are there. It's so big, it's hard to be coquettish."

However, Wen Nianyuan was extremely shocked by the strong desire/desire that rose in his heart just now, he knew it, he knew that his feelings for this elder brother far exceeded the brotherhood that he should have.

However, when this desire/desire came too surging, he was still shocked.

At this moment, he felt that Qi Xian might really not be a human, but a demon.

What's more frightening is that he doesn't know whether this demon has long understood the shameful and charming thoughts in his heart, or whether he doesn't understand his unethical thoughts at all.
