Return of the Swallow

Both of them were very uneasy, but this was Sitonghao's place after all. The owner of Sitonghao came in person and asked them to come up and talk about it. If they refused, they wouldn't be able to explain it.

The two of them had no choice but to move a ladder, and like two mice, they crawled up from the hole that could only be passed through.

Even though there was food and drink in the cellar all day long, there was no sunlight after all, and the air circulation was slow. As soon as they came out by themselves, they all felt that they smelled bad. Looking at the female boss of Sitong No. 1, both of them felt quite embarrassed.

Shopkeeper Yin Da came up at the right time and introduced: "My boss, this is Shi Fang, and this is Lu Xiong." He then introduced the two of them, "This is our boss Qiu from Sitong."

Shi Fang and Lu Xiong looked at each other, knelt down on the wet ground with a plop, and kowtowed to Qin Yining.

"Boss Qiu, our brothers were desperate, thanks to Boss Qiu for rescuing us. Your great kindness will never be forgotten by both of us! We have been working as cows and horses in this life, but we must repay Boss Qiu's great kindness!"

Qin Yining smiled hurriedly and stretched out his hand to help: "Brothers, please get up quickly. Since Hall Master Qiao has introduced me to join the Blue Sky Alliance that day, we are all brothers. If my brothers are in trouble, and I look on with cold eyes, who will I become? Yes? It’s just that the conditions are limited, so we have to live in the cellar these days."

"In other words, Boss Qiu has treated us with utmost kindness. In such a critical moment, hiding us might lead to fire, but you have always protected us. Brother, I am really grateful."

Qin Yining smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing. It's cold outside. Let's go into the inner room to talk."

Shopkeeper Yin Da also said: "Refreshments have been prepared in the house. My boss will invite you, and the two brothers will invite you."

"please."

The two sides humbly arrived at the side room. Pang Xiao and Mu Jinghu both stood in inconspicuous positions, quietly treating themselves as decorations in the room. Shopkeeper Yin Da took the people to serve tea and then left.

Pang Xiao was a little curious about how Qin Yining would persuade these two people, so even though he was standing in the corner, he kept looking at Qin Yining's direction without leaving any trace.

At this moment, Shi Fang and Lu Xiong had no intention of paying attention to the two ordinary-looking guards standing in the corner. They were filled with the excitement of seeing their savior.

"Really, if it weren't for Boss Qiu's Renyi this time, our brothers would never have been able to escape Prince Zhongshun's pursuit."

"Yes, I don't know what happened to Prince Zhongshun. We brothers had no grudges against him in the past and recently, but he actually killed us. There were four brothers outside at that time, including us, and the other two brothers He was overtaken by the pursuers and died miserably.”

Shi Fang wiped his face and said, "Prince Zhongshun acted like this, which is really unacceptable. If I don't take revenge for this, it will be difficult for me to let go of the hatred in my heart!"

Lu Xiong also said, "Yes, I can't swallow this breath either. But Prince Zhongshun has a distinguished status and has a large number of troops in his hands. How easy is it to seek revenge? It's good enough that we can live our lives as we are now."

Qin Yining heard the two men shouting with indignation that they wanted revenge on Pang Xiao, and couldn't help but look back at Pang Xiao who was standing in the corner.

Pang Xiao still looked expressionless.

Qin Yining coughed and sighed: "What you said makes sense. Prince Zhongshun has troops and horses, and he fights all year round. Not to mention that we are alone now. Even when our brothers are still alive, I am afraid that we will be like a mantis against Prince Zhongshun. It's just that Hall Master Qiao and the others were killed by Prince Zhongshun's men for no reason. They lost so many brothers this time.

I really can't swallow this breath. "

Lu Xiong shook his head and said: "What can I do if I can't swallow this breath? Does Boss Qiu have any way to deal with him?"

Qin Yining smiled bitterly and said: "Although my Sitonghao seems to be a big deal, it is nothing in front of real dignitaries. With the ability of Sitonghao, I really don't have the confidence to dare to fight against Zhongshun." Prince, are we afraid that all our bones will have to be chewed up by others? In the entire Huichuan County, I am afraid that there is only one Zhongyi Bo who can still compete with Prince Zhongshun."

Pang Xiao blinked, listening to Qin Yining's nonsense, and finally it was related to him. Those who are not familiar with her may not know, but looking at Qin Yining's little appearance, he was clearly taking risks.

Shi Fang's eyes lit up, "Uncle Zhongyi can indeed compete with Prince Zhongshun. I heard someone say before that Uncle Zhongyi is from the Lu family. The Lu family is very capable. Although Prince Zhongshun is a good fighter, , but when it comes to confronting the Lu family, they are fundamentally different. If you ask me, if we can unite with Uncle Zhongyi, this revenge will not be impossible to avenge."

Qin Yining waved his hands repeatedly and sighed: "Brother Shi, don't overestimate me. Uncle Zhongyi won't take my little Sitong number seriously at all. You also know that he was born in a Lu family, and his family has gold and silver." There are so many, even if I give him all my belongings to bribe him, he may not like it. It would be extremely difficult to persuade him to help me get revenge."

Shi Fang shook his head and said: "I have a suggestion. Tell me, Brother Lu and Boss Qiu can help with the details. After all, there are only three of us left in our local Blue Sky League."

Lu Xiong vaguely guessed what Shi Fang was thinking and hesitated a little.

Qin Yining said without knowing why: "What are you talking about?"

Shi Fang looked at Mu Jinghu and Pang Xiao behind Qin Yining, and whispered: "Is it convenient to talk here?"

Qin Yining smiled and said, "Conveniently, these are my confidants. I will take them with me in everything I do."

Shi Fangfang said: "Okay, then I'll be blunt. Boss Qiu also knows that the large amount of treasures piled up in the stone factory has been looking for opportunities to transport them out."

"That's what happened. It's just that now that the supervising imperial envoy and the county magistrate have taken office, it is no longer the time for me to discuss this matter with Hall Master Qiao. If we act rashly now, it is very likely that the court will be alarmed, whether it is Prince Zhongshun or Zhongyi Uncle, I will not let go of someone who steals materials from the imperial mausoleum without permission." Qin Yining said, suddenly looked at Shi Fang, blinked and said, "Does Brother Shi want to... use this treasure as a bargaining chip?"

"Clever." Shi Fang gave a thumbs up and said, "If I don't avenge this revenge, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart, and the brothers underground can't rest in peace. We have no other wealth as a bargaining chip, so we can't say that we are loyal uncles. But Uncle Zhongyi will definitely be interested in this treasure."

Qin Yining nodded, "He will indeed be interested, but if we tell him, we may not be able to get all of the treasure."

"Hey, so many brothers have died for this treasure. We have discussed it in the cellar before. If we can get some, it will be good. If we can't get it, then our brothers are poor by fate. No. With all this wealth, even if we are given so many treasures, we have no life to use them."

Lu Xiong agreed, "Compared with a small life, a treasure is nothing. Even our brothers can't stand it."

When the two of them said this, they both looked at Qin Yining very uneasily.

They knew that this woman now held the power of life and death over them. If she didn't want to tell the secret of the treasure, but they had this idea, she would definitely kill them to silence them, and then look for an opportunity to steal the treasure. So both of them are betting. I bet that this woman could save their lives in times of danger, so she should be a person of loyalty.

Qin Yining thought for a long time and then said: "In order to avenge the brothers, Brother Lu and Brother Shi are planning to give up covering the treasure?"

The two shook their heads and said, "It's not like we give up completely, but we really can't find any other good ways. It would be better if we can get one or two."

Qin Yining thought for a while and said, "I think this method is not impossible. In fact, although the treasure is good, it is a hot potato. Once the treasure is in our hands, the three of us will become everyone's target. If it weren’t for this treasure, we brothers would still be enjoying a good life, and we wouldn’t be so poor. If we tell Uncle Zhongyi about this, and he can help us avenge ourselves against Prince Zhongshun, I agree.”

They both breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but admired, "Although Boss Qiu is a woman, she is broad-minded and generous. My two brothers admire her very much."

"What the hell." Qin Yining smiled sheepishly, "To be honest with you two brothers, I'm actually just scared."

Qin Yining pointed to the furnishings in the room and said, "I am a little girl, it is not easy to do business, but my ability is a death against Prince Zhongshun's army, and it is also a death against the Lu family. How capable a person is, Just eat as much rice as you want. Something happened to Hall Master Qiao and the others, which really scared me. If it weren’t for that treasure, Hall Master Qiao and the brothers would still be alive and well."

Qin Yining shook his head as he spoke, his voice a little hoarse and choked, "If the two brothers think it is feasible, I have no objection. After the matter is done, if the two brothers don't dislike it, they can work with me at Sitong No. The days were still very lively.”

These words entered the hearts of Shi Fang and Lu Xiong. They have been hunted for a long time, and they are already afraid. The day they long for now is not about sitting on mountains of gold and silver. They know that even if they have the opportunity to own mountains of gold and silver, in the end those will not belong to them, and they cannot guarantee it. You may even lose your life in it. What they yearn for now is stability.

This treasure is too easy to handle, so leave it to those who are capable.

"Happiness, I didn't expect Boss Qiu to be such a reasonable and happy person. Since you don't object, it's settled."

Qin Yining nodded with a smile and asked, "What are the two brothers going to tell Uncle Zhongyi?"

Lu Xiong said: "Brother Shi and I will go and tell the matter to one person. Let the other one stay and see what happens. If we can make sense, we can join Uncle Zhongyi by the way, and we can also find a future in the future. I hope we can tell the treasure." In terms of whereabouts, the future is also guaranteed. As for not going together, it is also to prevent the other party from turning his back and denying the person. Don't go in together. "
