Yumei Villa.
An empty place.
Ouyang Heng carried Qiao Fei and arrived in front of Cheng Jinhua and Ruyan.
Mickey followed closely behind.
"Let's see if this is Qiao Fei?"
Ouyang Heng casually threw the person in front of Cheng Jinhua and asked.
Cheng Jinhua lowered her head and took a closer look. Then she gritted her teeth and said, "Even if he turns to ashes, I will recognize him. He is Qiao Fei."
"Then you caught the wrong person."
Ouyang Heng pulled out a dagger and put it on Qiao Fei's neck, and then slapped Qiao Fei awake with his inner strength.
"Don't scream, I'll kill you if you scream."
Qiao Fei, who had just woken up, wanted to scream, but he felt the coolness of the sharp blade on his neck and the threatening voice in his ears. He was immediately frightened and did not dare to speak.
"Qiao Fei, do you still recognize me?"
Cheng Jinhua gritted her teeth and said.
Qiao Fei raised his head, glanced at it, and his face turned livid, and he was so frightened that he lost his mind.
"Ghost!"
In his eyes, Cheng Jinhua should be a dead man.
Now that he actually appears in front of me, isn't this something evil, so what is it?
"I climbed up from the Huangquan Road just to find you."
"You should just go back wherever you came. From now on during the holidays, I will definitely burn paper money for you. Whatever wishes you have, I will help you realize them."
Qiao Fei was frightened like a quail, his whole body was shivering, and he even felt that his pants were a little warm and moisture was coming out.
"Qiao Fei, tell me, why did you want to harm me?" Cheng Jinhua said sharply.
Qiao Fei was so frightened that he almost forgot that he still had a dagger on his neck. He said quickly: "It's not me, it's Cao Wenhua, the magistrate of Zhuque County. Every wronged person has his creditor. If you want to find the creditor, go to him. He is the one who paid the debt." You asked me to do this for my money."
"Why did Cao Wenhua do this?" Cheng Jinhua continued to ask.
Now Qiao Fei has entered the state of answering all questions. He immediately said: "Cao Wenhua fell in love with you after seeing your play. He wants you to go over and serve him."
In fact, Cheng Jinhua knew what Cao Wenhua wanted because someone had already hinted at it.
Cheng Jinhua was not stupid, so she guessed it immediately.
"Tell me, how much money did Cao Wenhua give you?" Cheng Jinhua shouted.
"Five hundred taels, give me five hundred taels." Qiao Fei said with a trembling voice.
"I asked you to betray me for five hundred taels. You are really capable." Cheng Jinhua sneered.
"I can't help it. Cao Wenhua said that if I don't comply, he will call someone to deal with my family."
Qiao Fei already had tears and runny nose.
But Cheng Jinhua would never be fooled by his current pitiful appearance. He would always remember the things Qiao Fei had done.
No matter what excuses and reasons Qiao Fei had, he ended up doing things that hurt others.
If Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi hadn't rescued him, Cheng Jinhua would be a cold corpse now, buried in the ground, quietly rotting and deteriorating until it turned into white bones.
What makes Cheng Jinhua even more difficult to accept is that he also has a ten-year-old adopted daughter in Sixiang City.
If he is gone, one can imagine the fate of the adopted daughter.
When he thought of this, he no longer had any sympathy for Qiao Fei.
"Snapped!"
Mickey slapped Qiao Fei on the back of his neck.
Qiao Fei passed out again.
"This man can't die yet. We still need to keep him as a witness." Mi Qi looked at Cheng Jinhua.
"I understand." Cheng Jinhua had regained her composure.
Qiao Fei caught it, and what Qiao Fei will face next will definitely be a miserable ending.
This is the fate he deserves.
In this case, Cheng Jinhua would no longer force Qiao Fei to die now.
"Where are the others in the troupe? What are you going to do?"
Mickey asked.
"Qiao Fei has been caught. The others are also guilty, but not as guilty as Qiao Fei. They are just accomplices."
Cheng Jin Hua Dao.
Mi Qi, Ouyang Heng, and Ru Yan all understood what Cheng Jinhua meant.
He was still too kind. He only caught the culprit and let the others go.
But Mickey and Ouyang Heng didn't think so.
"We can't let them go. At least we have to shut them up, otherwise we will alert the enemy." Mickey frowned.
"Yes, we have to ask the theater troupe to keep silent." Ouyang Heng said.
This matter is not difficult.
Now there are only about thirty people in the troupe. All we need to do is control them all.
Seeing that Cheng Jinhua was still hesitant, Ruyan said from the side: "Jinhua, what are you worried about? Which one of the people in the troupe doesn't make more money?"
"Many of them can earn thousands of taels of silver a year, and it's not just you and the others who are supporting them. Do you treat them poorly on weekdays? No, it's them who are sorry for you, not you who are sorry for them."
"Don't hesitate."
"We are not trying to kill them, we are just giving them small punishments and severe punishments."
After Ruyan said this, Cheng Jinhua finally nodded and said: "Okay."
"Ruyan, you stay here and watch Qiao Fei, Jinhua, you also wait here, just the two of us can go."
Mickey said.
This is the proper meaning of the title.
They were doing things in the past, and Cheng Jinhua was just a burden, so it was better not to go.
"I'll go with you."
Cheng Jinhua objected.
Seeing the looks in Ouyang Heng and Mi Qi's eyes, he added: "When Qiao Fei saw me just now, he was immediately frightened. Others may be the same."
Ouyang Heng pondered.
That's a good idea.
He and Mickey looked at each other, and then they nodded together.
They didn't think of this. Since they were wrong, they admitted it.
At this time, everyone in the troupe was doing their own thing.
Some are cleaning up the trash, and some are sorting out the accessories, costumes, and props.
These are very expensive.
Usually a play requires a set of costumes and props.
They brought three sets this time, worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver!
Therefore, acting is a lucrative profession in this era, but the requirements are also extremely high. It is not an exaggeration to choose one from a million.
"What's going on with Captain Qiao today?"
"What's going on?"
Two actors were removing makeup, applying it on their faces, and chatting casually.
"Bandou Qiao hasn't taken such a long time to take a bath in the past, right?"
"You used to be in another troupe, how do you know? This troupe, Qiao, has a variable bathing time. Sometimes I can't say even two hours."
"Two hours? Isn't this about washing my bald skin? It's scary."
"That's not true. That time, we were all frightened. A group of us went to see what was going on, and it turned out that he was still washing."
"That's too evil."
"No, later we heard that when Captain Qiao was scared, he would take a long bath. This time, think about it, Cheng..."
"Don't say that name. I'm scared. It feels so cold all around. It's scary!"
