Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!
Chapter 232 I am your godfather
Qi Lin paused, turned around and looked at the visitor, with obvious anger on his face: "Shopkeeper Liu, what do you mean?"
Qi Lin came out late and did not see Shopkeeper Liu and others. Unexpectedly, the other party returned in front and ran into him.
Shopkeeper Liu had blood stains on his body, and the two men traveling with him were carrying huge packages on their backs. They had obviously been involved in the business of killing people and robbing goods.
"What do you mean? Isn't it obvious?"
Shopkeeper Liu stroked his beard and smiled.
This trip was just for robbing and leaving alone.
They came on the third day of the Lunar New Year and stayed in the tunnel for three days, with no intention of going to Surabaya City.
It was shopkeeper Liu's plan to rob someone in the tunnel and then return the same way after eating.
As expected, there were abundant harvests along the way.
Unexpectedly, after turning back, there would be fat sheep delivered to the door.
Shopkeeper Liu rubbed his hands and stared at the package in Qi Lin's hand and the cart beside Jiang Yuzhu. He was determined to win.
Qi Lin's face gradually turned cold: "We are doing business in a border town. Do you have any conscience and actually rob your own people?"
Shopkeeper Liu opened a leather goods shop next to the Qi family's shop.
The two of them are relatively familiar with each other on weekdays, and occasionally have a drink together when the weather gets cold.
Shopkeeper Liu appeared in the tunnel, something Qi Lin never expected.
"Qi Lin, what a joke. Who is your friend?"
Shopkeeper Liu's three people became addicted after tasting the benefits of robbery. He has done this kind of thing more than once.
The cost of going down the tunnel is 30 taels per trip, and there are also benefits for the people guarding the tunnel.
How can we get our money back without robbing?
"You don't need to be friendly with me. Since I bumped into you, I will treat you as unlucky and you will both die."
Shopkeeper Liu was covered in blood and carrying a large package. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on.
When he was caught by Qi Lin, he had the idea of killing people and silencing them.
"Li Da, Li Er, there is no need to keep alive!"
Shopkeeper Liu was too lazy to talk nonsense with Qi Lin and ordered the two people behind him.
"Yes, shopkeeper!"
Liu Da and Liu Er strode forward, holding bright swords in their hands, forcing Qi Lin with no way to retreat.
Qi Lin was not unprepared. He took out a dagger and held it in front of him. He turned to Jiang Yuzhu and said apologetically: "Aunt Chen, it was my nephew who caused trouble for you and Brother Shen!"
Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao both adopted the surnames of their mother's family.
Qi Lin looked guilty. If he hadn't taken the initiative to strike up a conversation and find a companion, maybe the two of them could have escaped.
"It doesn't matter, you don't want to either."
Jiang Yuzhu said something insincerely.
In this case, even if Qi Lin denies the relationship and uses shopkeeper Liu's greedy nature to catch everyone, he will definitely not let go.
Jiang Yuzhu looked on with cold eyes, feeling inexplicably relieved.
Just because shopkeeper Liu and his trio were able to rob property, it shows that the tunnel is not as scary as they thought.
I am used to seeing well-trained death warriors, but looking at Shopkeeper Liu's trio, I always feel that they are not worthy of the stage, more like a ragtag group.
The two parties were confronting each other, and suddenly a cold wind blew, and the fire and oil lamps were extinguished.
It was pitch dark in the tunnel, and you couldn't see your fingers.
Upon seeing this, Qi Lin quickly squatted down and moved around as slowly as possible.
As long as Qi Lin remained silent, Shopkeeper Liu wouldn't be able to find him.
If you want to take advantage of the darkness, it would be better to kill this group of people without leaving any hidden dangers.
Qi Lin closed his eyes and silently made a wish.
Jiang Yuzhu leaned on the spot calmly and did not move. Then she heard a thumping sound and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
After a while, it became dead silence again.
Qi Lin held his breath and asked tremblingly for a long time: "Aunt Chen, Brother Shen, are you okay?"
There was another wait, and Qi Lin felt that it was extremely long.
After the fire was rekindled, Qi Lin, Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao looked at each other in confusion.
There were only three people in the surrounding area with lighting, and Shopkeeper Liu and his followers were nowhere to be seen.
There was no blood on the ground, but the package remained.
Qi Lin's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it. Could it be that the Buddha heard his wish?
"Haunted... haunted?"
Qi Lin rubbed his eyes. If the extra package hadn't been there, Qi Lin would have thought he was delusional.
He was more inclined to think that the person killed by Shopkeeper Liu turned into a ghost and came back to take revenge, but thinking of his father's tragic ending, Qi Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Aunt Chen, thank you for your life-saving grace!"
Qi Lin looked at Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu, and finally assumed that Jiang Yuzhu was the hidden boss.
Thinking about it, if she wasn't too sure, how could the woman dare to go into the tunnel?
Qi Lin knelt down and kowtowed devoutly: "From now on, you will be my godmother!"
Qi Lin didn't want a penny for the package left by shopkeeper Liu, because he didn't deserve it.
"Seeers have a share."
Jiang Yuzhu suggested that he could be of use to Qi Lin.
Qi Lin was even more frightened. He touched his neck and let out a long breath: "Godmother, if you hadn't taken action, even if my son could survive, he would have been seriously injured. How could he have the nerve to ask for money?"
Not only does he not need money, Qi Lin will also honor 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?"
He was negligent. He should first find out the other person's age. Some people don't like to be called old.
Xie Zhao's eyes flickered, and his smile quickly disappeared. He only heard him correct him rigidly: "I am your godfather."
"Godfather?"
Qi Lin staggered, his heart burning with gossip. Didn't he say that although his godmother was a bit older, she must have been a beauty when she was young, so how could she have such a pockmarked face?
Xie Zhao nodded and responded calmly: "Yes."
Qi Lin: "..."
Although he felt a little awkward, thinking of the life-saving grace, Qi Lin quickly convinced himself.
"Godfather, Godmother, do you have a place to stay in Surabaya City?"
Qi Lin inquired excitedly and wanted to introduce the two of them to his sister Qi Ju.
His godfather and godmother also want to call Qi Ju.
"Just stay in the inn, no trouble."
Xie Zhao temporarily changed his mind. It would be easier to find out information if he could stay at a commoner's home.
Qi Lin waved his hand and said: "How can that happen? The inn in Sishui City is not peaceful, and there are people robberies at night. Although the godmother is somewhat capable, it is not easy for the thieves to worry about her."
After Qi Lin finished speaking, he bowed to Jiang Yuzhu with great respect and suggested again: "We can hold a recognition banquet after meeting my sister."
Although his pockmarked face looks a bit unappealing, since he is the one whom his godmother likes, he reluctantly recognizes him as his father.
Qi Lin's screams became smoother now that his biological father was gone.
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 children!
This change can be described as huge.
