When he said this, he seemed to be condemning, but he smiled freely, as if he was just mentioning it, and had no intention of accountability.

But suddenly he got up and came to Qiu Lingfu, took a step forward and pulled Qiu Lingfu over, put his steaming mouth next to his ear and said, "I'm so sad."

The people outside the house came back one by one, Ah Po let go of Qiu Lingfu, Qiu Lingfu took a step back, stared blankly, and saw his nonchalant smile just now.

Before Qiu Lingfu could speak, Xu Bichuan went up to meet him first, politely: "Young Hero Apo, I think Xu has some misunderstanding."

Ah Po smiled and said: "What misunderstanding? The head of Hua Yuye has never met Ah Po, so it is reasonable to be wary."

Xu Bichuan didn't change his face: "Thank you, young hero Apo, young hero Apo is really reasonable."

But as soon as the words were finished, Ah Po Ruo shrank his hands, the front part of the chopsticks in his hand broke off and fell into the wine.

Sun Jinghong retracted the invisible and sharp silk thread in his palm, and smiled neither hot nor cold: "Young hero Ah Po came here uninvited, Mr. Sun was negligent and didn't prepare bowls and chopsticks, but Young hero Ah Po doesn't have to use Young Master Qiu's Chopsticks."

Ah Po put the broken chopsticks together, and as if nothing happened just now, he picked up the dishes leisurely: "But the chopsticks are broken now, why don't we just use them."

"No, neglecting guests is not the way to spend flowers and leaves. Hanyan, you ask someone to add two more sets of bowls and chopsticks." Sun Jinghong ordered coldly.

Sitting down again, the atmosphere was quite different from just now.

An outsider was inserted between this person's inseparable friends, everyone felt silent and tasteless, but the culprit, Ah Po, didn't care.

Sitting next to Qiu Lingfu, he ate with gusto, and kept adding food to Qiu Lingfu: "Isn't this roast chicken your favorite? Eat more, the taste of the roast chicken in Huayuye seems to be better than the ones outside." Much better. The sweet and sour pork is also good, you seem to have ordered it in Ziyu last time, and it was the cleanest."

Qiu Lingfu wanted to ruthlessly throw these dishes on the table, but what he picked up was his favorite, so he couldn't bear to throw it away, so he could only eat it sullenly.

Xu Bichuan watched, but suddenly opened his mouth, "There is one thing, please ask Young Hero Ah Po to keep his mouth shut."

Ah Po smiled, "Is it because Master Sun is a man?"

The food in Sun Jinghong's mouth was boring, he looked at Ah Po, and sneered: "If Ah Po is not happy, I will use Yuye's own method to make Ah Po young hero shut up. Although Ah Po The young hero's martial arts are world-renowned, but don't forget that this is Hua Yuye's territory."

You can feel the smell of gunpowder in it, Hanyan and Yanbi looked at each other.

Ah Po only looked at Qiu Lingfu: "Since Qiu Lingfu has a good relationship with Master Sun, I will naturally not reveal this matter."

There is a lot of meaning in these words, as if this is not to say that it is hindering Qiu Lingfu's face, it is not a choice made out of conscience or being intimidated by Sun Jinghong.

"On the contrary, Xu Zhuge is afraid that something will be exposed." Ah Po reminded.

Xu Bichuan paused, knowingly asked, "What's the matter?"

"I didn't guess it, but I just thought of it when my senior sister mentioned it." Ah Po smiled, "I don't know the relationship between Ruyi, the first master of Hua Yuye, and Xu Zhuge's Ruyi building?"

"The word Ruyi means auspicious and wishful thinking. Many people in the world named the building Ruyi, so it doesn't matter. If it really mattered, maybe the original owner of the building looked up to the name of Ruyi and named the building Ruyi, and Xu So-and-so happens to have a taste of this ingenious elegance."

Xu Zhuge's explanation seems to be reasonable, and there is nothing irrefutable.

Ah Po didn't seem to care what Xu Zhuge would say, he just smiled and said, "That's true."

Ah Po didn't ask too many questions, but asked Qiu Lingfu again: "Did you come to Huayuye often since you were young?"

Qiu Lingfu saw that Ah Po circled around and turned his eyes back to himself, so he ate something and said, "Whether I come or not, what does it matter to you?"

Turning his head around, he said another teasing sentence, sneering: "Did you run around the streets with dirty noses and smelly clothes since you were young?"

The snow-like eyebrows and eyes in the quiet time are stained with the vulgarity of the world, so vivid that people can't help but want to take possession of them with malicious bullying.

But these words were ridiculed on Ah Po who had a miserable family, it seemed extremely vicious, but Qiu Lingfu didn't notice it.

Perhaps aware of it, this person will not feel guilty.

Ah Po avoided the topic of Qiu Lingfu, and only smiled: "It seems so."

The meal was interrupted once in the middle of the meal, so after eating hastily, I went to the reception room on the second floor, and asked someone to change the tea.

Sun Jinghong sat on the large carved wooden chair in the middle, several people sat on both sides, Hanyan, Yanbi, and Xu Bichuan sat on one side, Qiu Lingfu sat on the other side, Qiu Xiaoshi Apo was on his left and right.

Xu Bichuan spoke first: "Since Young Hero A'Po is here, let's open the sky and speak frankly, let go of our prejudices, and talk about the matter between Qiu Xinsu and the Bai family. We each take what we need, help each other and benefit each other, which is beneficial and harmless."

Ah Po laughed and said: "This has always been Ah Po's original intention."

Xu Bichuan nodded, and then asked Qiu Lingfu: "Do you think Qiu Lingfu?"

"It doesn't matter." Qiu Lingfu said, "As long as I find my mother, I don't care about that guy."

Xu Bichuan said casually: "According to Xu's speculation, there is indeed a connection between these two matters. First of all, it must be confirmed that the Xiangshui Palace released the news of the Bai family's servants a year ago, in order to lure Qiu Xinsu into the bait and let Qiu Xinsu return to the Jianghu. walk, and capture her through clues."

"This shows that their move is targeted. They know that the Bai family can attract Qiu Xinsu's attention." Sun Jinghong said.

"Well, what happened last time in the Zixiang Tower and what Qiu Lingfu said about the encounter in the flower field just now, we can know that there are helpers in Xiangshui Palace, and what is worth affirming is that they are not helpers, but the people who really want to find Qiu Xinsu behind the scenes. Because of the special status of Xiangshui Palace in Jianghu, ordinary sects will not be willing to cooperate with them on an equal footing." Xu Bichuan said.

"Why did you choose Xiangshui Palace?" Han Yan was puzzled, "If he wants to lure Qiu Xinsu, he can just find any restaurant and inn? Isn't it more risky to leak the news if he does such a conspiracy?"

Xu Bichuan smiled and said: "That's not what I said. Xiangshui Palace has been neutral in Jianghu for decades, and the old palace owner of the previous generation is also a well-known neutral person with integrity in Jianghu. Xiangshui Palace has power all over the world. Many sects had secretly sent envoys to try to win over Xiangshui Palace, but they were all turned away. Even in this generation of Palace Master Ding, who is mercenary, he is conscientious and does not dare to destroy the established signboard. I don’t know how the people behind the scenes made Xiangshui Palace Shuigong moved evil thoughts to become their running dog, but what he used was not the power of Xiangshui Palace all over the world, but the neutrality and uprightness that Xiangshui Palace has lost now."

Qiu Xiaoshi rubbed his head, he obviously tried his best to concentrate on listening to Xu Bichuan's words, but he was still confused: "What do you mean?"

"The people behind the scenes use Xiangshui Palace's upright image in the hearts of the world and even martial arts people to spread news about the servants of the Bai family, and then let the most powerful palace owner of Xiangshui Palace speak out. You say Qiu Xinsu trusts this news Is it a little more?"

Qiu Xiaoshi slapped his thigh, and said angrily: "This is really disgusting! Miss is so smart, how could she be fooled like this? It turns out that they all believed the lies of Xiangshui Palace!"

"Qiu Xinsu may not really suspect that this is a trap, and the news about Xiangshui Palace may not be fake news." Ah Po said.

"Dare to ask young hero Ah Po, is the servant of the Bai family really a servant of the Bai family?" Xu Bichuan asked.

Ah Po's expression rarely showed a trace of helplessness: "I was young at the time, and I had no impression of many Bai family members. However, the wooden sign on that person's body was real. But the wooden sign appeared too deliberately, and I After thinking about it, if the people who destroyed the Bai family back then found wooden plaques from the corpses of the Bai family and used them to set up this conspiracy, it would be feasible."

That's what he didn't know for sure, Xu Bichuan asked: "I heard from Qiu Lingfu that Young Hero A'Po is still in contact with several Bai family members who were spared from the disaster, can you help me to clarify?"

Ah Po smiled lightly: "It's natural, even if it's for my own business, I will ask to understand."

"You really don't know the secret of the Bai family?" Qiu Lingfu asked him.

"If I knew, the cause of death and the culprit of the Bai family members, I'm afraid I could have found it out by following the vines, so why did I find it on you, a fool?" Ah Po said.

Qiu Lingfu nodded, that's true.But seeing Ah Po sniggering again, he suddenly realized that Ah Po called himself a fool in the last sentence, so he wanted to sarcastically say: "I didn't hide the whereabouts I was following, and was discovered by a fool, who is more stupid? "

Ah Po chuckled softly: "You are stupid."

These two people were so sarcastic and choked at each other, and seeing that they were about to drag the topic away, Sun Jinghong intervened: "Qiu Lingfu, you said that this Aunt Su was attracted by the affairs of the Bai family, and she didn't want to know about it. Secret, but afraid that the secret will be leaked?"

"My mother must know something, otherwise why did she hide in the city, and why did Xiangshui Palace arrest her?"

"Could it be because they intend to capture those who want to know the secret for some purpose?" Yan Bi asked.

"Their target is very accurate, it is my mother. Moreover, my mother has lived in seclusion and severed ties with Hua Yuye. It is obvious that she does not want to drag you down, and she has set up obstacles in the name of the 'Su Xin Sect'. It has never been seen in more than ten years. Someone found us... Don't all these signs mean that someone is looking for her, and this person who is looking for him will not only bring harm to her, but also bring harm to her related people? One is just a desire A secretive person can't afford the threat of others chasing after her."

Qiu Lingfu raised his eyebrows, and said with real anger: "Even if I don't say anything, I must be thinking that if I die on this road, I will die cleanly and don't involve anyone. When will these quack spirits be normal? Taking selfishness as great love, and giving birth to a son and thinking that you are free and unfettered? I want to come out to find her."

These speculations are all conjectures, but they seem to be the most plausible ones.

When he said this, Ah Po's smiling eyes never left Qiu Lingfu's eyebrows and his unreasonable mouth.

Han Yan also laughed after hearing Qiu Lingfu's words: "Your mother doesn't know whether she is happy or sad after hearing this."

"She was happy when I found her, but sad when she died when I was looking for her." Qiu Lingfu said cleverly, as if life and death were normal things, and talking about it was just as ordinary as chatting.
