Ji Changying's eyes revealed satisfaction.
Sure!
I hadn't been here for a while and thought Yang Tuozi had forgotten her long ago, but I didn't expect he still remembered who she was.
"Yes, I haven't forgotten my oath."
These ambiguous words made Yang Tuozi's heart tighten and cold sweats broke out: "I dare not forget!"
I had always thought that this person's martial arts skills were so high that killing him would be effortless.
Now he doesn't think so anymore. He feels that it wouldn't be difficult for the other party to kill his entire family!
No wonder this person let them go at the beginning. He didn't worry about them being disobedient even after not contacting them for such a long time.
"Has Madam Liu been active lately? Have any strangers appeared around her?"
Yang Tuozi threw away the messy thoughts in his mind and quickly told Liu Ma about the situation during which he had been keeping an eye on her.
After Ji Changying looted the five grain stores that night, Madam Liu never showed up again. It was not until the afternoon of the next day that she appeared again.
When they learned that the grain store had been looted, Madam Liu immediately informed them and asked them to see her in the evening.
Of course, he and Zhang Xinyuan were the only ones who went to see Aunt Liu at night. They both knew everything in their hearts, but neither dared to say it.
Upon learning that Lao Luo was dead, Aunt Liu slapped the table and broke it, and then asked the two in detail about the cause of Lao Luo's death.
As agreed upon before, the two men pushed all the responsibility onto the Gale Squad, and even went to disguise the scene for this purpose.
Even though her legs and feet were not easy to move, Madam Liu insisted on taking a look. She also asked two people to dig out Lao Luo's body and examine it for her before letting him go. She then put the blame on Prince Ping's Mansion.
The government office in Liangzhou also made a big fuss and investigated for a long time because of the thefts in five grain stores.
In the end, they only found a few barbarian spies in the city. Since the murderer was not found, they simply put the blame on the spies.
"She thinks that this must be the case of the palace crying 'stop thief'." Yang Tuozi glanced at Ji Changying cautiously.
It’s no wonder that Madam Liu had the wrong idea. It was simply not something that one or two people could do to rob five grain stores overnight.
So much food disappeared without alerting anyone. Apart from the powerful and influential people in Prince Ping's palace, I really can't think of anyone else who could have done that.
Yang Tuozi also suspected that his master might not be a person at all, but an organization or had many subordinates lurking in Liangzhou City, or even... could he be from Prince Ping's Mansion?
"After this incident, Nanny Liu has been keeping a low profile for a while now. She hasn't contacted us since the last time. I've asked someone to keep an eye on her. She's basically been working at the Duwei Mansion and rarely goes out."
Ji Changying frowned: "Is there no one around her?"
The man in black that night has been bothering her, so she has been very active in practicing martial arts recently. The next time she meets that man, she will definitely not fail!
Yang Tuozi hesitated for a moment. "No one's around here. It seems something happened to Madam Liu's leg the night you showed up last time. She's been recuperating in the backyard all this time. But I've noticed that she seems to be talking more to the vegetable farmers who deliver food to the Duwei Mansion than before."
"Did you say a few more words to the vegetable farmer?"
Is there something wrong with this vegetable farmer?
"This vegetable farmer lives outside Liangzhou City. He's been delivering vegetables to the Duwei Mansion every day for a year. I had someone check the farmer's house and found nothing unusual. However, Nanny Liu doesn't usually talk much in the Duwei Mansion, so it's really out of the ordinary for her to talk to the vegetable farmer."
In the past two years, Yang Tuozi would collect information about Liu Ma from time to time.
However, there is no one with high martial arts skills, and if you get too close, you will be easily discovered, so you dare not go too far, so the information is somewhat scattered.
Ji Changying nodded thoughtfully but didn't say anything. He stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Yang Tuozi quickly said, "I will definitely tell you as soon as possible if I have any news in the future. I just don't know how to contact you."
Ji Changying turned to look at him with a half-smile: "You are quite proactive, you rebelled as soon as you said you would."
Yang Tuozi gritted his teeth and said, "I was deceived when I helped her!"
Yang Tuozi continued talking to himself without waiting for Ji Changying to speak.
Yang Tuozi and his sister were raised by their mother alone since childhood, and the three of them have always depended on each other.
In order to get him married, his mother and sister worked day and night. After he finally got married, his wife died of complications during childbirth, leaving behind a daughter.
It was also because of this little niece that my sister delayed getting married for a few years because she was worried about her family.
Unexpectedly, she was spotted by a wealthy businessman who wanted to take her home as a concubine.
It would be fine if this rich businessman was a good person, but Yang Tuozi asked someone and found out that the rich businessman had a hobby of torturing and killing women!
Naturally, he and his mother were unwilling, so they humbly rejected the other party and kept quiet for a while.
Just when the family thought the matter was over, one day the other party took advantage of the fact that no one was home and ran over, intending to use force.
Fortunately, Yang Tuozi came home early that day because of something, and he beat the man up and threw him out of the house. As a result, the rich businessman turned around and reported the man to the government office on the grounds that he had been stabbed.
The stabbing incident was true and Yang Tuozi was locked up.
His sister and mother had nowhere to turn for help, and were finally threatened by the rich businessman to give themselves to him.
So his sister compromised and went to find the rich businessman alone while her mother was out looking for a solution.
When Yang Tuozi was released, his sister had been tortured beyond recognition and died in the rich businessman's backyard within a month.
His mother cried so much that her wrists became blind. If his daughter hadn't still needed her grandmother, she would have died too.
Yang Tuozi was filled with hatred, but after learning from the last lesson, he did not dare to act rashly.
"It was at this time that Aunt Liu came to me. She said she could help me get revenge, and I agreed."
Yang Tuozi voluntarily took the poison to serve Liu Ma, and with her help, he killed the rich businessman in revenge.
"But just a year ago, I saw with my own eyes that the wealthy businessman was still alive! He respectfully called Liu Ma Ma the Hall Master, and it seemed that he was also her subordinate."
At that moment, Yang Tuozi understood everything. This was simply a trap.
It was all a show from beginning to end, and in the other party's eyes, his sister's life was a tool to make him obedient like a dog.
Yang Tuozi knelt on the ground with a very determined expression: "I've been in Liangzhou for these years, and I've gotten to know a lot of people from all walks of life. I can get a lot of information. As long as you can help me get revenge, from now on, I'll fight wherever you point me!"
Ji Changying didn't care whether he obeyed or not, but now their goal was the same: "Revenge? Isn't that simple?"
Yang Tuozi looked up in surprise and was about to say something, but found that the other person had disappeared.
