Chapter 184 Peak Turn, Secrets of Past Life
Leng Xuanrong felt that the "condition" in Qi Zongyan's mouth was probably disdainful of Anping, so they found themselves in order to achieve this "condition".
Leng Xuanrong thought so in her heart. At this time, Qi Zongyan finally told Leng Xuanrong with a bitter face what their so-called "condition" was.
"When the cold girl came here, she probably saw that there were still many women and children in our cottage, who were the family of the brothers in the cottage. When the head of Longda pulled up this willow, he actually found a way to live for the mountain people around him who could not eat and were bullied. For so many years, they have never robbed the rich to help the poor. They have never killed anyone indiscriminately, let alone robbed any ordinary passers-by..." Saying this, Qi Zongyan sighed again. He looked at Leng Xuanrong, as if he was seeking her identity.
But Leng Xuanrong did not show any sympathy. She knew that Qi Zongyan actually said these words to pave the way for the following words, and the longer such foreshadowing, the more guilty Qi Zongyan was.
"Qi Dongjia, what the heroes in Chaoyang Village have done seems to have nothing to do with me." When Leng Xuanrong said this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and whispered, "Reversely, I have heard more than once about the Qi Dongjia. Your goods from Guibuzhuang to and Wuming County have been robbed by mountain thieves several times. For this reason, you deliberately went to the government..."
After Leng Xuanrong said this and looked at Qi Zongyan's expression, it seemed to be even more ugly.
If what Qi Zongyan said is true now, it means that what he said to Leng Xuanrong before is all false, so there is not much to believe from what he said after meeting Leng Xuanrong. Since he has been lying to Leng Xuanrong for so long, I'm afraid it's not easy for him to make Leng Xuanrong believe what he said.
Several people here seem to understand this.
Long Hanqing, the big head, finally opened his mouth. He looked at Leng Xuanrong and said in a low voice, "Miss Leng, Brother Zong Yan is all burdened by us. I hope you don't blame him. What all our brothers up and down in Chaoyangzhai are worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, whether you believe it or not. In order to save hundreds of people in our cottage, Brother Zong Yan even left his own life behind. This time... Alas... it's always all the Zongyan brothers..."
"Brother Hanqing, don't say that!" Qi Zongyan frowned and shook her head at Long Hanqing.
Leng Xuanrong looked at the three men opposite him, which did not seem to be acting. They could not even hide the depression on their faces. It seemed that this matter was really related to their lives. And on second thought, what Qi Zongyan did was seen by An Pingzhi and others. He colluded with the mountain thieves, and the robbery of Anping's people was no longer a secret. In this way, even if the matter is calmed down, I'm afraid that Chenggui Buzhuang can't go on, and I'm afraid that Qi Zongyan's wealth in Wuming County can't be preserved.
Leng Xuanrong finally became a little curious. What can make Qi Zongyan give up everything to do these things?
"Qi Dong's family, it's the little girl who made a mistake. Please finish your words."
Qi Zongyan looked gratefully at Leng Xuanrong, took a deep breath, and continued, "Miss Leng is right. I really didn't tell you the truth before. The goods of our Chenggui Buzhuang have indeed been robbed several times in Fengquanling, as well as the goods of other merchant stores in Wuming County. We went to the government to report the case together, but the result was what I said to Miss Leng. Later, I deliberately came to the mountain to ask Brother Hanqing and asked them to find the robbers in the nearby Fengquanling... Unexpectedly, under this investigation, it caused the murder..."
Fengquanling, mountain thieves, robbers, the disaster of killing...
Leng Xuanrong suddenly remembered something. She took a breath of cold air, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Her reaction shocked the other three people. Long Hanqing and Miao Shantao looked at Qi Zongyan in disbelief, and Qi Zongyan also felt puzzled and stared at Leng Xuanrong.
"Cold girl...what's wrong with you?"
Qi Zongyan's voice seemed to suddenly float far away. Leng Xuanrong recalled a secret she knew in her previous life that implicated everything that had happened in this life.
The reason why Leng Xuanrong's father Leng Chengqi abandoned his officialdom and fled is also very related to this matter. This was not known until the end of Leng Xuanrong's previous life. At that time, she learned about this from Du Yilin, the king of Xiaohan, and in this life, I'm afraid that Du Yilin is still struggling to find this secret at this time...
Leng Xuanrong is 80% sure that the disaster of killing Qi Zongyan came from that secret, and if this speculation is true, then everything can be explained.
"Cold girl?"
A call pulled Leng Xuanrong back from her thoughts. At this time, she found that the three men opposite were looking at her with puzzled faces. There was even panic in the doubt. Leng Xuanrong's hands under the table were clenched together, and her heart pounded uncontrollably. Who would have expected that at this time, she would have another Opportunities can influence the development of things in the future!
Everything seemed to be a coincidence, and Leng Xuanrong suddenly began to think that Qi Zongyan was a good person. If he hadn't lied to himself like this, he wouldn't have been sitting here now. If he hadn't deliberately brought An Pingzhi to this Chaoyang Village, he wouldn't have had such an opportunity now!
Joy, excitement, and confusion, complex emotions make the expression on Leng Xuanrong's face elusive. Thanks to this, the three men on the opposite side are even more frightened.
"Cold girl, what's wrong with you? Are you all right?"
Leng Xuanrong raised his hand and pressed his stomach, squeezed out a wry smile, and whispered awkwardly, "My stomach... hurts... it may be water... or something I ate yesterday..."
Qi Zongyan was skeptical, but Qi Zongyan still asked, "Why don't you go to rest first?" In fact, he felt that Leng Xuanrong must be pretending to cover up her strange behavior just now.
The facts also proved Qi Zongyan's idea. Leng Xuanrong quickly shook her head, "No, let's ask Qi Dong's family to finish talking."
The three men looked at each other and seemed to have no other way. Qi Zongyan had to continue to say, "The only person in Anping can save these hundreds of people from being killed. But Mr. An is stubborn. He is so arrogant that he doesn't even want to listen to us. Even if we imprison him on the mountain now, he will not give in. Miss Leng, we only hope that he can promise us one condition, that is, we are not allowed to move this Chaoyang Village in any case to save the lives of hundreds of people in the cottage.
Leng Xuanrong tried to calm herself down and returned to her usual appearance. After listening to Qi Zongyan's words, she asked, "Qi Dong's family told me these things. Did they want me to persuade Mr. An?"
Without waiting for Qi Zongyan to speak, Long Hanqing said in a low voice, "That's right! Miss Leng, now that Mr. An is not willing to listen to what we say anymore, and we really dare not do anything to him. Before the officers and soldiers came to encircle and suppress the cottage, they asked Miss Leng to do this for us. Even..." With that, Long Hanqing lowered his head and his voice was a little bitter, "Even if our whole Chaoyang Village owes a favor to the cold girl, if the girl is useful to us in the future, we will never die!"
This Long Hanqing Long's head seems to be a very strong person who will never bow his head easily. Now he must have no choice but to beg Leng Xuanrong in such a low voice. In the face of such a big man who bowed his head for the lives of hundreds of people behind him, Leng Xuanrong was really moved.
However, unlike just now, Leng Xuanrong has a clearer idea in her mind. She also has a lot of grasped the current situation. It can be said that her position has been reversed now. Previously, she felt a little embarrassed when she looked at the three men in front of her, but now she knows their weaknesses, the handle they hold in their hands, and even knows more than them. In this way, these three men are not terrible. And Leng Xuanrong will not take an action without careful consideration for such a little move.
"The big boss..." Leng Xuanrong sighed and said to Long Hanqing, "The Qi Dong family has talked about the ins and outs of the matter, and I am probably clear about your current situation. That is to say, if I don't make a line to promote this 'business' for you, then hundreds of people in Chaoyang Village will either be killed by the so-called 'killing disaster' or will be wiped out by the officers and soldiers who come to rescue Mr. An. Am I right?"
Long Hanqing's face turned pale. He found that the momentum of the little girl in front of him had suddenly changed. Since she had some changes, the little girl's whole body has become different. When she first came in, she was obviously uneasy and afraid, but now she is not afraid, but seems to be above them. This made Long Hanqing very angry. For him, this is called taking advantage of people's danger. Who would have thought that a teenage girl would change her face so quickly? Did she know that they wanted her, so she was going to bargain soon? It's really worthy of being the person valued by King Xiaohan, and worthy of being the shopkeeper under King Xiaohan.
"Cold girl, if you have any requirements, it's okay to say it." Long Hanqing's voice was full of murderousness, and his tiger eyes also flashed brightly.
Leng Xuanrong suppressed the feeling of fear and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "Long Dajia is indeed a cheerful person. But Leng Xuanrong is not such an insignificant person, and I also know your current difficulties. If you want to say what I want, hum..." Leng Xuanrong sneered, "I'm afraid there is nothing I want in your Chaoyang Village. As the master said just now, if I do this, you will owe me a favor. If I can't do this, we still have no grudge. Isn't it wrong for me to say so, right?
