Chapter 232 I am your godfather
Qi Lin paused, turned around and looked at the person who came, with obvious anger on his face, and asked: "Manager Liu, what do you mean?"
Qi Lin came out late and did not see Manager Liu and others. Unexpectedly, the other party returned in front and ran into him.
Shopkeeper Liu had blood on his body, and the two men traveling with him were carrying huge packages on their backs, obviously having committed murder and robbery.
"What do you mean? Isn't it obvious?"
Shopkeeper Liu stroked his beard and smiled with his face but not his heart.
This trip was just to rob the lone people.
They arrived on the third day of the Lunar New Year and stayed in the tunnel for three days. They had no intention of going to Sishui City.
Manager Liu's plan was to rob in the tunnel and return the same way after eating.
As expected, we reaped a rich harvest along the way.
Unexpectedly, after turning back, there was a fat sheep delivered to the door.
Shopkeeper Liu rubbed his hands, stared at the package in Qi Lin's hand and the cart beside Jiang Yuzhu, determined to get them.
Qi Lin's expression gradually turned cold: "We are doing business together in the border town. Do you have any conscience to rob your own people?"
Manager Liu opened a fur shop next to the Qi family's shop.
The two of them are quite familiar with each other on weekdays, and they occasionally have a drink together when the weather is cold.
Qi Lin never expected that Manager Liu would appear in the tunnel.
"Qi Lin, what a joke, who is your friend?"
The three men under Manager Liu became addicted to robbery after tasting the sweetness of it, and he has done this kind of thing more than once.
It costs thirty taels to go down the tunnel once, and you have to give benefits to the people guarding the tunnel.
How can I make my money back without robbing?
"You don't have to talk to me. Since you have been caught, just consider it bad luck. You all have to die."
Manager Liu was covered in blood and carrying a large package, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on.
When Qi Lin saw this, he wanted to kill him to silence him.
"Li Da, Li Er, there's no need to leave anyone alive!"
Shopkeeper Liu was too lazy to talk nonsense with Qi Lin and gave instructions to the two people behind him.
"Yes, shopkeeper!"
Liu Da and Liu Er strode forward, holding shining swords in their hands, forcing Qi Lin into a corner with no way to retreat.
Qi Lin was not unprepared. He took out a dagger and blocked it in front of him. He turned to Jiang Yuzhu and said apologetically: "Aunt Chen, it is my nephew who has implicated you and Brother Shen!"
Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao both used their mother's family's surnames.
Qi Lin looked guilty. If he hadn't taken the initiative to strike up a conversation and find a partner, perhaps the two of them could have gotten away with it.
"It's okay. You don't want to do that."
Jiang Yuzhu said perfunctorily without meaning it.
In this situation, even if Qi Lin distanced himself from the matter, Manager Liu would definitely not let it go due to his greedy nature.
Jiang Yuzhu watched coldly and breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
The fact that Manager Liu and his two men were able to rob property shows that the tunnel is not as scary as people thought.
After being used to seeing well-trained assassins, the three men led by Manager Liu always feel unpresentable and more like a mob.
The two sides were confronting each other, and suddenly a cold wind blew, and the fire and the oil lamp were all extinguished.
The tunnel was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Seeing this, Qi Lin hurriedly squatted down and tried to move around as slowly as possible.
As long as Qi Lin doesn't make any noise, Manager Liu won't be able to find him.
It would be better to kill these people in the dark without leaving any hidden dangers.
Qi Lin closed his eyes and made a silent wish.
Jiang Yuzhu leaned there calmly without moving. Then she heard a puffing sound, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
After a while, it became dead silent again.
Qi Lin held his breath for a long time before he trembled and asked, “Aunt Chen, Brother Shen, are you okay?”
Another period of waiting passed, and Qi Lin felt that it was extremely long.
After the fire was reignited, Qi Lin, Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao looked at each other.
There were only three people in the area with light all around, and Manager Liu and his followers were nowhere to be seen.
There was no blood on the ground, but the package was left.
Qi Lin's eyes widened in disbelief. Could it be that the Buddha heard his wish?
"Is it...haunted?"
Qi Lin rubbed his eyes. If the extra package hadn't been there, Qi Lin would have even thought he was having an illusion.
He was more inclined to believe that the person killed by Manager Liu turned into a ghost and came back for revenge, but when he thought of his father's tragic ending, Qi Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Aunt Chen, thank you for saving my life!"
Qi Lin looked at Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu, and finally agreed that Jiang Yuzhu was the hidden boss.
Come to think of it, if the woman wasn't so sure, how could she dare to go down the tunnel?
Qi Lin knelt down and kowtowed devoutly, saying: "From now on, you are my godmother!"
Qi Lin didn't want a penny for the package left by Manager Liu, as it was not what he deserved.
"Everyone who sees it shall have a share."
Jiang Yuzhu felt that she could use Qi Lin, so she made a suggestion.
Qi Lin was even more terrified. He touched his neck and let out a long sigh: "Godmother, if you hadn't helped, even if my son could survive, he would have been seriously injured. How could he still have the nerve to ask for money?"
Not only does Qi Lin not ask for money, he will also be filial to his godmother!
“Brother Shen, are you right?”
Qi Lin looked at Xie Zhao, looking for someone to help him.
Xie Zhao glanced at Qi Lin lazily and said word by word: "You shouldn't call me Brother Shen."
Qi Lin smiled sheepishly and said, "Brother Shen?"
It was his negligence. He should have found out the other person's age first. Some people don't like being called old.
Xie Zhao's eyes flickered, and his smile quickly disappeared. He corrected him in a rigid tone, "I am your godfather."
"Godfather?"
Qi Lin staggered, his gossipy heart burning. If he hadn't said so, although his godmother was a little older, she must have been a beauty when she was young. Why would she be interested in a pockmarked face?
Xie Zhao nodded and responded calmly: "Yeah."
Qi Lin: “…”
Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Qi Lin quickly convinced himself when he thought of the life-saving grace.
"Godfather, godmother, do you have a place to stay in Sishui City?"
Qi Lin asked excitedly and wanted to introduce them to his sister Qi Ju.
He is his godfather and godmother, so Qi Ju should call them that too.
"Just stay at the inn. It's no trouble."
Xie Zhao suddenly changed his mind and thought that it would be more convenient to get information if he could stay in the homes of ordinary people.
Qi Lin waved his hand and said, "How can that be possible? The inns in Sishui City are not peaceful, and there are robberies at night. Although my godmother has some skills, it is not good for her to be targeted by thieves."
After Qi Lin finished speaking, he bowed to Jiang Yuzhu respectfully and suggested again: "After I meet my sister, we will hold a family recognition banquet."
Although he looks a bit ugly with his pockmarked face, since his godmother likes him, she will reluctantly acknowledge him as her father.
Now that Qi Lin’s biological father is gone, he cries out more and more smoothly.
Jiang Yuzhu: “…”
She did nothing. While Xie Zhao was cleaning up the mess, she was thinking. When she came to her senses, she suddenly found that she had both a son and a daughter!
This incident is huge.
