"Little sister, Xiong Xiong is really here for you. Their stronghold is in the Lion Forest! But for the time being, he will let the rest of the Yixian Sect investigate elsewhere."

"It turns out that the one who bought the Lion Forest is the Yinxian Sect, no wonder he is so wealthy. But what is his purpose in coming to me? The Gao family of the Five Pearl Sect has long been gone."

Jiang Ying shook her head: "It's a long story. He'll be here soon. Now he thinks you don't know my identity. Don't reveal it later!"

"Don't worry, brother." Gao Xiaomei imitated Jiang Ying's example and raised her eyebrows. The two looked at each other and smiled. They were used to this kind of scene.

Jiang Ying once read a statistic that said that each person tells an average of two lies a day.

I thought that the world of cultivating immortals would not have all these twists and turns, but I didn’t expect that it really came true: Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

When Xiong Xiong arrived, it was the darkest hour before dawn. When he pushed open the courtyard door, he found that the door bolt had been broken.

"This is..." The words of inquiry were swallowed back, because he saw Scar Liu and another person he had taken care of were tied together, and another person was lying in the yard. Jiang Ying and Gao Xiaomei were squatting on this body. What were you studying before.

It was obvious at a glance that Scar Liu and his men broke into the embroidery workshop at night and were punished.

"Master Xiong is here." Jiang Ying sighed: "It's a joke to call him Master Xiong. Our house was robbed tonight. It seems we can't wait until dawn to go see the weapon refining site together."

Gao Xiaomei stood up obediently and saluted: "Mr. Xiong."

"It doesn't matter, I think it's Scar Liu again?" Xiong Xiong looked at Jiang Ying in confusion.

Jiang Ying pretended to be secretive and nodded to reassure him, then spoke again: "It's just that Scar Liu is okay. The person who tipped him off was a helper in our store. We all thought he was a good kid, and he even had the heart to cultivate him." ."

Jiang Ying's tone was slightly low, and Gao Xiaomei also lowered her head.This was not an act. Er Niu was beaten so badly that both of them wanted to help.

but……

Xiong Xiong came over and turned Er Niu over, saying "Hey".

"It was him."

"Master Xiong also knows him?"

"I... I've seen him twice before in our embroidery workshop, so... after checking, I probably know why he followed Scar Liu." Even in the dark night, the "unspeakable" expression on Xiong Xiong's face was noticed by the two women. Be clear.

"Mr. Xiong, what's the secret?"

"Scar Liu is working for Wu Yuanwai, could it be related to Wu Yuanwai?"

"Oh, that's right. I found out that he once had a sweetheart, whose surname was Zhou. A few months ago, he was married off to Yuan Wu, who was chosen by the family, and made her a child."

Jiang Ying and Gao Xiaomei looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes: "Mr. Zhou?"

Xiong Xiong nodded: "Recently, there is news that Zhou's fetus is unstable. The doctor hired by the Wu family said that she may have a premature birth."

"Zhou has only been in the Wu family for a few months, and this belly..." Gao Xiaomei was halfway through her words, and suddenly looked at Xiong Xiong with an expression as if she had discovered something.

Jiang Ying sneered: "That's no wonder Erniu dared to do any dirty things. Those are his women and children, and he has to look at them even if he wants to see them. It's a pity that Scar Liu is not working for Zhou, but He was doing something for Yuan Wai Wu and Mrs. Wu. If he succeeds today, he can only be used as a scapegoat and will get nothing out of it."

When the rooster crows, Scar Liu wakes up quietly, and gradually feels the pain in his fingers, heart and eyes, which makes him suddenly remember where he is!

"You bastard, just wait until Wu Yuanwai calls the officers and soldiers to arrest you!"

"What? Who did you make an agreement with last night? If you don't go back, he will report to the officer, right? It's been a night, where are the officers? Where are the soldiers? Your good officer is scared when he sees that there is no movement in the yard."

Jiang Ying took a piece of firewood and patted Scar Liu on the cheek, looking like an arrogant villain.

"Why can't Yuan Wai Wu see that we can do business peacefully? You have repeatedly instigated you to destroy the place, and you have turned your attention to burning, killing, and looting!" What Gao Xiaomei doesn't understand the most is this. To say that Yuan Wai Wu is attracted by her looks, it's a big deal. You can come directly to her "brother", or there are a lot of women who are better-looking than her in Gusu City.

"Humph, you have offended Mrs. Wu, and you still want to do this business in Gusu City? You don't even want to know what Mrs. Wu's natal family does! Do you think you will lose face by marrying a concubine and giving her a few rags? Damn! If Mrs. Wu knew that you were doing this to me, would you still take your life?"

After hearing Scar Liu's words, Jiang Ying and the other three looked at each other in shock.

"The closest we got to Mrs. Wu was when she asked her servants to block the entrance of the alley and arrest Zhou's nanny."

"The problem lies with the Shu brocade. Zhou won the Shu brocade on the first day. If we hadn't done the accounting later, she would have continued to gamble on this prize. Mrs. Wu, I guess she was used to being praised by the merchants in Gusu City. We If you don’t offer it with both hands, you will be considered offended.”

"Chi Qian is really a bastard. Even if her family is a prime minister, she can't even think of riding on us!" As soon as Xiong Xiong said this, the two women looked at him with constipation on their faces - why is it "we"? , this man is too familiar.

Only then did he remember to explain to Gao Xiaomei: "Oh, last night Brother Ling and I had already agreed to do business together. From now on, we will advance and retreat together!"

Jiang Ying narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Exactly, exactly."

Gao Xiaomei just pretended not to know and pretended to be surprised: "Really! That's great. With Mr. Xiong here in the future, we won't have to worry about being entangled by bad guys!"

Xiong Xiong looked at Scar Liu's bloody hands and eyes and said to himself: You weren't worried about this at first. Look, you hurt someone.

"Hmph, let Mrs. Wu kill all three of you!" Perhaps until his begging for mercy was in vain, Scar Liu suddenly became arrogant.Before he could use it, Jiang Ying was hit in the head with another hand knife.

"It's so annoying," Jiang Ying took a sip and said to the two of them: "The store will be open for business as usual soon. The Wu family will definitely not be able to sit still. Let's knock one out."

"Brother, what should I do with the two cows?"

Jiang Ying looked at Er Niu's simple face for a long time, and suddenly said to Xiong Xiong: "Mr. Xiong, please check whether that Zhou family voluntarily worked for Wu Yuanwai."

"Okay." Xiong Xiong was indeed an old clerk. He took the "task" and turned around and disappeared.

"If Zhou is not voluntary, we will give Er Niu a chance to snatch the person out for him, and give these two people a sum of money to let them fly away." After saying this, Jiang Ying pondered for a while:

"But I think Mrs. Zhou is a small girl of her own free will. She is very good at instigating people to squander money... I hope she is driven by desperation and not like this in her nature."

Sure enough, at noon, when the sun was at its highest, Tianying Embroidery Shop had just seen off a wave of customers, and the already small alley was surrounded by servants of the Wu family.

"Shopkeeper, our wife has invited me! Come with me quickly!" The leader said "please", but his attitude was "If you don't go, you will die."
