Hearing these three words Xu Baipi.
I was stunned for a moment, and then my heart skipped a beat!
Same name and surname?
I still clearly remember Huang Qi’s nephew Xu Baipi!
If he hadn't stolen Miao Guangyang's life-saving money, Miao Guangyang wouldn't have had his body corroded by corpse energy, and he would have been pushed down the river in the end.
Not only that, he also stole all of Huang Qi's family property and almost made Huang Qi commit suicide by jumping into the river!
Huang Qi treated Xu Baipi, a distant relative, as if he were his own son.
His behavior was simply heartless and a white-eyed wolf.
The provincial capital we are visiting now is quite a distance from Jiuhe County.
It is unlikely to meet Xu Baipi...
Most likely a coincidence?
As soon as I thought of this, a carefree young man walked out from the crack in the street.
I saw the young man wearing a woolen coat and a black felt hat on his head. He was still playing with two stones, throwing them into the sky and catching them again.
He jumped forward a few steps, glanced at us, and his voice still had the unique duck voice of a young man: "Old Hong, who are you?"
My face suddenly changed!
If this person is not Xu Baipi, who is he? !
When I met his eyes, my pupils instantly shrank to a small point.
Xu Baipi's face also changed drastically, and his pair of yellowed eyes revealed surprise and fear.
"It's really you!" I shouted in shock and anger.
The next moment, I suddenly raised my legs and rushed directly towards Xu Baipi!
Xu Baipi's expression became even more cruel, and the stone in his hand hit me directly on the head!
Immediately afterwards, he overturned the stall of the vendor next to him.
Amidst the exclamations and curses of the stall owner, a pile of fruits and wooden stalls were thrown directly at me.
Xu Baipi said "Bah!" to me, turned around and ran towards the other side of the street!
I barely managed to avoid the pile of objects coming at me, and I was about to chase after it with all my strength when a "squeak" sound suddenly came from behind me.
I saw from the corner of my eye that the door of the carriage was pushed open, and a slender figure jumped out of it, quickly surpassing me and chasing Xu Baipi.
It was He Pheasant who rushed out!
He Zhi's face was as cold as ice, and her speed was extremely fast.
At that time, He Pheasant suffered a lot from Xu Baipi.
At that time, her legs were injured. When Xu Baipi stole the money and escaped, he stepped on He Pheasant's wound severely, causing He Pheasant to bleed a lot!
In the blink of an eye, Xu Baipi and He Zhi both disappeared from my sight.
At this moment, the beggar who called out Xu Baipi was dumbfounded with fright.
He turned his head and wanted to run.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, I stepped forward and grabbed his shoulders directly!
"Don't leave!" I yelled in a low voice.
The beggar looked sad and said that he was not familiar with Xu Baipi and didn't know that he had snooped on us. He begged me to let him go...
I squinted my eyes slightly and said coldly: "Did you sneak into us? I didn't say what Xu Baipi did."
Instantly, the beggar's expression became even stiffer, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
I had roughly guessed this change in demeanor, as well as his acquaintance with Xu Baipi just now.
I'm afraid that these two people are most likely in cahoots together, and they engage in many surreptitious and clandestine affairs together.
Suddenly, I became a lot more energetic and pushed the beggar to the ground hard!
The beggar's strength was far inferior to mine, so he collapsed on the ground.
"What's your relationship with Xu Baipi?" I asked sharply.
The beggar actually closed his mouth and said nothing.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it. Xu Baipi killed a friend of mine and stole a lot of money. He can't escape. He kills to pay for his life and debts to pay for money. You and his accomplices can't escape either." I said indifferently. Open your mouth.
This time, the beggar was even more frightened.
"Kill...kill? Me...that kid and I really...have nothing to do with each other."
The beggar immediately told him everything he knew about Xu Baipi.
It turned out that he was also Xu Baipi who he met almost half a month ago.
At that time, Xu Baipi happened to enter the city. He was dirty and looked like a little beggar.
But in less than half a day, when Xu Baipi appeared at the entrance of the city again, he had put on clean clothes and was carrying roast chicken.
At that time, Xu Baipi told him that when he was begging for food, he would help him look at the people on the street to see if there was anyone with a lot of money that could be easily dealt with, or he could step on a spot for him every few days and "earn" it. If you get money, you will give him 10%.
After a slight pause, the beggar continued to speak carefully: "After working with Xu Baipi several times, I learned that he said that he took a lot of money with him and went to the city to live with his relatives. However, he was deceived on the road and almost sold. He had to work hard for people in the mountains and valleys, and he finally escaped. He had no choice but to steal things to make ends meet."
After saying this, the beggar's eyes were pleading, saying that he really had nothing to do with Xu Baipi, so let us show our respect...
My brows furrowed into a knot.
I have gone through these words in my mind several times.
What the beggar said at the end actually seemed to me to be half truth and half lie.
The pretense was that Xu Baipi defected to relatives, but in fact he stole Huang Qi's family property and ran away.
Really, I'm afraid even Xu Baipi has encountered a liar...
This is indeed tit for tat...
"Mr. Li, this is..." Liu Huayan asked softly from behind.
I looked back out of the corner of my eye, and Liu Huayan also got off the carriage.
I simply said that I met an "old acquaintance" who had an old grudge with us, and He Zhi had already gone to arrest him.
Liu Huayan said thoughtfully, "Old grudges?"
I glanced into the distance and saw that He Zhi hadn't come back yet, so I briefly told Liu Huayan what Xu Baipi had done.
Liu Huayan's brows wrinkled, and his face didn't look good.
The beggar was slumped on the ground and trembling. He was still being held by me at the moment.
"Let him go, it has nothing to do with him. I almost heard what you just said." Liu Huayan said softly again.
I hesitated for a moment, and there was really no need to anger others.
As I let go, I warned the beggar in a cold voice: "Those who steal will be robbed. After death, their tongues will be cut off and thrown into the frying pan. You'd better do less evil, otherwise you won't be so lucky next time."
The beggar laughed and said that he didn't dare anymore, and ran towards the other end of the street, crawling on his feet.
There were many pedestrians on the road at this time, all looking towards us.
The vendor whose stall was overturned just now was crying and swearing, but he didn't dare to come near me...
Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, it turned out to be two-quarters of an hour.
I started to feel confident, but now I was a little worried, why didn't He Pheasant catch up?
Or something went wrong?
I was looking anxiously into the distance when I suddenly saw two figures appearing at the end of the road where they ran out just now.
One of them is indeed He Pheasant, and the other is Xu Baipi!
What surprised me was that He Zhi walked back with his hands folded.
Xu Baipi actually followed her, with a sad face and two thin legs like hemp poles, trembling as he walked.
He kept reaching out to dig at his throat, making retching movements from time to time.
