Chapter 46 Terrible Thoughts
Hurry up to meet him.
Old Man Zhou explained, "We were not killed. We found the victim in the mountains. We have already reported it to the authorities, and the officials have dragged the body away to the charity cemetery."
Others followed suit, "Yes, yes, yes, we all saw it, the two bodies were Doctor Gong's apprentices, their bones were broken in the fall, how pitiful."
"That's right. He must have fallen accidentally while walking. It just happened to rain a few days ago, so the mountain road was slippery..."
"The government officials have also confirmed that he only had injuries from falling, no other scars. He also had some silver on him, so it didn't look like he was robbed. It's a pity that good people don't live long!"
Lin Shiqi felt very disappointed after hearing this.
She doesn't think so.
At this moment, there was only one terrible thought in her mind.
He must have been murdered!
There is no way he died by accident.
Because in the book, the way Zhou Qinan killed Doctor Gong and his disciples was to push them off a cliff and kill them.
…
Obviously...
The book says that the hero Zhou Qinan was trying to avenge his fourth uncle, because Doctor Gong Shen cured Zhou Sisha to death. In order to avenge his fourth uncle, Zhou Qinan killed Doctor Gong Shen's apprentice.
Now, Zhou Lang is not dead.
There was only one reason why Zhou Qinan killed Dr. Gong: he was greedy for money.
At the same time, it also shows that Zhou Qinan is ruthless in order to achieve his own goals!
He wasn't seeking revenge for anyone, he just wanted to make a profit, for money.
At that time, Doctor Gong was robbed by gangsters. He only took out eighty taels of silver and ran away.
They must still have it.
Lin Shiqi and the others only wanted to recover the money that was cheated from the Zhou family and did not want to be involved in too many consequences, so they did not go after them.
They thought that Doctor Gong and his disciples had left Longquan Town safely, but unexpectedly, they still died.
…
Lin Shiqi gently nudged Zhou Lang and asked, "How much silver do Divine Doctor Gong and his men have left?"
Zhou Lang whispered back, "About twenty or thirty taels."
Lin Shiqi...
More certain of her thoughts.
Doctor Gongshen and his disciples have cheated so many people, their assets must be more than this.
As expected, the big chunk was taken by Zhou Qinan.
He became more and more wary of Zhou Qinan.
Although he is young, he is cruel and ruthless, deep-minded and cunning. He even leaves some silver as a disguise to confuse the direction of the investigation.
"Is there any evidence at the scene?" Only Zhou Lang could understand Lin Shiqi's words.
Zhou Lang shook his head, "No."
Lin Shiqi felt even colder in his heart and all over.
The pressure of survival suddenly reached its limit.
It seems that only one side can exist between the old Zhou family and Zhou Qinan.
It is probably impossible to live in peace and farm in harmony.
…
The villagers were all sighing, such a good doctor had died.
Mrs. Zhou said, "Dr. Gong cured my son, and now my son has found his body, which completes their fate. Otherwise, he would have fallen to his death and been eaten by wild dogs, leaving no bones, which would have been even more pitiful."
"Forget it, forget it. Everyone, please be careful when walking on mountain roads next time, especially after the rain."
"Yes, yes!"
After expressing their feelings for a while, they went their separate ways.
Zhou Lang and his friends harvested a rabbit. Mrs. Zhou was unusually generous and said that they would braise the rabbit meat tomorrow.
She cooked the meals herself.
The children were all happy.
I just ate stewed pig's trotters today, and I will have meat again tomorrow.
Mrs. Zhou was a grateful person. She took a stick of incense and some yellow paper and went to the back mountain to burn them for Doctor Gongshen and his disciples, as a farewell to them.
Lin Shiqi and the others returned to the room and had another conversation with Zhou Lang.
Zhou Lang also thought that it was Zhou Qinan who did it.
He sighed, "We all underestimated him. This boy is ruthless, shrewd, and far-sighted. He will hit the target with one strike. He will definitely be an extraordinary person in the future."
Lin Shiqi said, "I suspected that Zhou Qinan was nearby the scene that night. Fortunately, I disguised you and didn't let your true face show to others."
As expected, it is better to be cautious.
"Well, next time, don't use tricks like burying silver and saying that the ancestors have blessed you. He will definitely see through it." Zhou Lang added.
really.
If they had known that Zhou Qinan was so cruel and scheming, they would not have buried the silver.
This method is too childish in front of others.
"Fortunately, he is in the open and we are in the dark. We will try not to conflict with him and wait until we have a good life."
When life is good, your wings will become stronger.
Only then can you have the possibility to compete with the male protagonist.
He may be a person protected by heaven now. If you confront him easily, you will probably not end up well.
Zhou Lang said in a deep voice, "The basis of his rise is the decline of the old Zhou family. If the old Zhou family had not declined, perhaps there would be a different ending."
Lin Shiqi slapped Lin Shiqi on the shoulder, "I think so too. I think Mrs. Zhou can't die, and the Zhou family can't be broken up! Maybe things will develop differently."
It's rare that the two of them think alike.
Apart from anything else, the tacit understanding between the two of them is getting stronger and stronger.
Zhou Lang looked at the hand on his shoulder with disdain and shook it off mercilessly.
Lin Shiqi was not annoyed either.
She wouldn't bother with that dog Zhou Lang.
Continue,
"I just can't think of any good way to prevent the Zhou family from falling into decline, because Zhou Qinan wrote in the book that he is good at studying and will pass the imperial examinations step by step. After he passes the examinations, he will suppress the Zhou family. No matter how good the Zhou family is, they are just peasants and are easy to bully. What else can we do, unless we let him drop out of school? Don't let him study?"
Zhou Lang shook his head, "No, Dad won't agree. Dad has put a lot of effort into him."
Old man Zhou would rather his entire family starve to death than let Zhou Qinan drop out of school.
Lin Shiqi glanced at Zhou Lang, who was young, handsome and full of vitality.
He looks like an awkward high school student.
She had a bold idea. "Well, Zhou Lang, you are only eighteen years old this year, fake eighteen! You can also take the imperial examination. As long as you pass the examination, the Zhou family will never decline. If Zhou Qinan wants to attack us in the future, it will not be so easy to deal with him."
The more I think about it, the more excited I get.
In ancient times, everything was inferior except reading.
How did Zhou Qinan rise to prominence? He went all the way to high school and reached the pinnacle of his life.
He Zhou Lang can do it too!
Zhou Lang has a doctorate degree. This bastard has a good family background, is handsome, and has extraordinary knowledge.
Zhou Lang seemed to be reminded by Lin Shiqi and fell into serious thought.
“You can try.”
Then, he asked Lin Shiqi, "I am doing scientific research, what about you? What are you doing?"
Lin Shiqi answered loudly, "I don't do anything. I just want to be the wife of the top scholar and have fun..."
Zhou Lang's mouth curled slightly, "Okay, just wait for a pie to fall from the sky and crush you to death."
He didn't believe that Lin Shiqi was such a person.
Lin Shiqi is hardworking, quick-witted, and has many ideas. She can never sit still.
Once you have a clear direction, it’s time to plan and act.
…
The next day, Mrs. Zhou kept her promise and cooked delicious braised rabbit meat for breakfast.
