Fortune Teller.

Yuan Shao deliberately found his confidant to do this matter, and the method was quite secretive. Even if Yuan Zong found out that someone had tampered with it later, he would definitely not be able to find any evidence pointing to him.

The Yuan family didn't support idlers, and the people under them naturally didn't make a living. It didn't take long for the Yuan family to spread rumors about the ambiguous relationship between Yuan Zong and the boy he brought back, although there would be no one for a while. Spread this groundless story to the Patriarch's ears, but it also happens to give this matter a little time to ferment, and when Yuan's father finds out, it will explode with a "bang". It can only be indisputable.

In fact, the reason why Yuan Zong took Qiao Ran around was just to let him get in touch with Yuan Shao's people, hoping to learn more about his elder brother's situation.In case there is any mortal danger to Yuan Shao during this trip, he might as well warn him in advance.

Although the two of them are now a little stiff because of the position of the head of the family, they are still brothers after all, and it's okay to fight and fight, it's not good if they really kill people.

It's just that Yuan Zong didn't expect that he brought people with him and lived in the same room to prevent Qiao Ran from acting alone, and being falsely accused of being a spy by others. Longyang is well.

Even when the two of them went to bed at night, they were embellished by those people to say that they were doing that. Obviously, they both slept in the same bed, okay?

Although Yuan Zong didn't mind that the relationship between the two of them was said to be like this, the aggrieved feeling of being said to have done something when they clearly didn't do it also made him a little uncomfortable.After all, compared to those women, Yuan Zong really felt that Qiao Ran was a better person, with a docile personality, almost no temper, and his appearance crushed most of the women.When I asked him for help, I agreed without hesitation. I have been busy for the past few days, but I haven't complained. Everyone has a sincere smile.

Faintly, Yuan Zong actually hoped to let these rumors fly wild, maybe it would become true if it was passed on?So, when Qiao Ran found him and hoped that he would suppress these rumors so that people would not continue to misunderstand him, he refused.The reason is that if the relationship between the two is really like what everyone said, then everyone's rejection and suspicion of Qiao Ran will be reduced, which will also facilitate future actions.

Although Qiao Ran felt that Yuan Zong's reason was far-fetched and unreasonable, but after thinking about it, he felt that Yuan Zong didn't need to trick him into harming him, so he compromised in a daze.Anyway, it was just spreading rumors among the Yuan family, and Fang Gan was not in Hongcheng, so it was impossible for him to hear it.Even if Fang Gan heard about it, and the two of them didn't really have a situation, the explanation would probably turn the page.

So, following the rumors, Yuan Zong began to take Qiao Ran around Yuan's house openly, and when he saw Yuan Shao's subordinates, he hurriedly pointed them out to Qiao Ran.After such a day, after reading a lot, I can finally piece together a rough idea.

Yuan Zong had already found out who Yuan Shao would bring with him in private. Coincidentally, what Qiao Ran saw was somewhat similar to what he saw with Yuan Zong's men before.Obviously there are dozens of people who are confirmed on the list, but there are less than ten people who actually went to Lihai.The difference is that all the people who went to Yuan Shao's side were buried at the bottom of the sea, and only one mutilated skeleton floated on the surface of the sea.

Yuan Shao was not included among these few people. Yuan Shao's situation was the same as Yuan Zong's side, he was just thrown into the water by the waves, and his life was not in danger.

Originally, Qiao Ran wanted to go to Yuan Shao and ask him to change the list of personnel so that those who lost their lives would not go into the sea, but Yuan Zong stopped him.Yuan Zong said that the current situation is unclear, those people will lose their lives, not necessarily because of their own reasons, but more likely because something happened at sea, which caused them all to die.If Qiao Ran rashly went in to intervene now, not only might they not be able to save the lives of those people, but he would also lose a few more lives in vain.Qiao Ran was a kind-hearted person, and he was determined not to do such a thing as a life-for-life exchange, so Yuan Zong could almost conclude that Qiao Ran would not intervene again.

Sure enough, as soon as Qiao Ran heard that other innocent people would be implicated, she immediately fell silent, trembling while pinching the hem of her clothes, a lot of cold sweat dripped from her back and forehead, she lowered her head and was full of entanglement, neither to help nor to Neither is it true that there will always be an equal number of people going to die in the end.He clearly knew what would happen, but he couldn't do anything. He could only watch those people go to their deaths. This feeling of powerlessness made Qiao Ran wish he had never had this ability.

"Leave this matter alone, okay? It's inevitable to make sacrifices to solve Li Hai's matter. Someone has to go in and look at the situation. If you think about it, maybe their sacrifices are not meaningless." Yes, maybe we can find some clues from it, except for the monsters in the Lihai, and the peace of the people who live on the Lihai, so that no one will lose their life for no reason, okay?" Yuan Zong sighed After all, Qiao Ran is not like them who grew up in the whirlpool of power. They are used to those ruthless, bloody and dirty things. Human life hesitates, "Exchanging a few lives for tens of thousands in the future is already pretty good, isn't it?"

From the perspective of an outsider, a few lives for thousands of lives is a pretty good deal, but from the standpoint of those who died, it may not be so.Not everyone is a saint who can benefit the common people, and not everyone is willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the world.What's more, the sacrifices of a few of them may not be the turning point of this disaster, and they may even still be meaningless sacrifices.Obviously, Yuan Zong is the former, while Qiao Ran is the latter.

"Then can you guarantee that their sacrifices will definitely bring about a turnaround? You can't, can you? You don't even know if their deaths are meaningful, right?" Qiao Ran was sharp once in a while.

Hearing this, Yuan Zong was taken aback for a moment. Qiao Ran's reaction was beyond his imagination, and he even lost control of his emotions. Obviously, this incident made him a little anxious. Without even thinking about it, he stretched out his hand to hug Qiao Ran. In his arms, he patted him on the back and comforted him: "Why is it meaningless? Someone has to go, right? If they don't die, someone else will die..."

"But why does someone have to go?! It's fine if everyone doesn't go, wouldn't it mean that no one will die?" I have to say that Qiao Ran has already become a dead end at this moment, and everything is done by her own emotions. Judging, he immediately wanted to break free from Yuan Zong's embrace.

"Then what about those people who depend on Lihai for their living? What about those who never returned to Lihai before? Don't care about it? Don't we need to give them an explanation?" Not so.The few who were about to die were all Yuan Shao's right-hand men, if they really failed in this operation, it would be regarded as a great help to him.
