The environment of the entire mountain is actually very similar. No matter where you go, you will see the same land, cliffs and greenery.
That’s why I say that the surrounding scenes are both strange and familiar.
But Liang Yuanque could tell that they had reached a place they had never been to before or passed by.
That's fine. If they ran back the same way they came, wouldn't they be easily discovered by Xiao Linzi?
He didn't feel it while running, but when he suddenly stopped, Zhuang Youjie felt that all the strength in his body was exhausted and his limbs were very sore.
He randomly found an open space that looked relatively clean and sat down. While beating his legs, he worriedly said to Liang Yuanque,
"Let's take a rest and leave quickly. If we get kicked out, it'll be over!"
Liang Yuanque also sat down next to him.
"Don't be so nervous. You must know that the mountains are the most suitable place for hiding people. And if we deliberately hide, he will be alone and it will be difficult to find him."
Zhuang Youjie took a deep breath to calm his heart that was about to pop out of his throat.
"Then, was that Xiao Linzi sent by the murderer to silence him?"
"It's also possible that the old lady sent him to silence him." Liang Yuanque sighed lightly.
When they first got along, he had a vague feeling that something was not right with this person. From the subsequent testing and observation, he could almost draw a conclusion.
This Xiao Linzi is definitely not an ordinary servant.
But later, his actions proved it all.
He should be Mrs. Lin's new confidant after the old housekeeper.
Thinking about it this way, the old housekeeper's death may have been caused by the old lady instigating him to do it.
Otherwise, how could he happen to pass by the vegetable cellar, glance down and see the body, and there were so many servants in the Lin family, so he was the only one brave enough to go down and take a look?
He went down to the vegetable cellar at that time, perhaps to cover up some evidence in a race against time.
When the murderer is at some murder scenes, instead of covering up and saying that he has never been there, he might as well just turn himself into the first witness.
Among these mental inertias, such behavior can indeed greatly eliminate suspicion for oneself.
"Is the old lady crazy?" Zhuang Youjie couldn't believe it. "He's going to kill someone before the work is done. Doesn't she want to take the twenty gold bars?"
"This is obviously not about money," Liang Yuanque raised his finger and flicked Zhuang Youjie's forehead, "How can you, a young master, open your mouth and shut up all because of money? Who did you learn this from?"
Zhuang Youjie cursed in his heart, who did you say you learned it from?
But when I think about it carefully, I think it's too one-sided. Mrs. Lin definitely can't spend so much money just to save money.
If you feel that the price tag is inappropriate, you can just pay back the price at the time or refuse to agree. Killing people and silencing them is not a good deal.
After thinking about it, if the old lady also silenced her, it must be because they learned the secrets of the Lin family back then.
Such things must not be spread among the Lin family. No matter where you are from, you have to be dead to rest assured.
Maybe some Feng Shui masters were shut up in this way before.
"So, she thinks we know too much, so she wants to silence her?" Zhuang Youjie tried to express his analysis.
"That's my current guess."
Hearing what Liang Yuanque said, Zhuang Youjie quickly thought of something strange again.
"But we sent someone to silence him before we finished the matter. Aren't we a little too anxious?"
Thinking of this, Liang Yuanque sighed,
"This is my fault. I said the wrong thing at the time."
At that pretentious ceremony, Liang Yuanque said that the eldest daughter of the Mo family told him that the Lin family's crimes were not committed by them.
The old lady must have listened to this. She thought that since it was not ghosts causing trouble, Liang Yuanque and the two were of little use.
Maybe she wanted to follow this line of thought and investigate in another direction. Since she no longer wanted to investigate ghosts and ghosts, she could use someone else to do it.
Kill Liang Yuanque and the others, and then invite another group of people, so that there is no need to tell everything about what happened back then.
Tsk, this old lady is so unkind!
Zhuang Youjie sat on the floor with his legs stretched out, his face looking downcast.
"Then what should we do next? I have been psychologically affected by being chased recently. I have been running away in my dreams in the middle of the night. Aren't we doing another loss-making business?"
As he was talking, he suddenly thought, it would be better to take the opportunity to persuade Liang Yuanque to leave, but he would go to the hospital to check his health, and then tie him back to the banker's house to force him to rest for a period of time.
"Aque, that..."
As a result, before he could say anything, Liang Yuanque pulled him up from the ground.
"It's too early to talk about losing money now. I'll definitely make a profit from the Lin family's money!"
"Hey, no!" Zhuang Youjie wanted to look up to the sky and scream, "My big brother, how good are you?"
Liang Yuanque insisted on pulling him away regardless of his mood.
"Come on, let's get out of the mountain before dark."
It's okay if you don't rest, but if you stop and rest before continuing on your way, it will be even worse than being tortured.
Zhuang Youjie dragged his limbs that were almost numb, feeling that his legs would no longer obey his orders.
Along the way, the surrounding scenery was basically similar. Liang Yuanque asked Zhuang Youjie to chat more to avoid irritability due to visual fatigue later.
At the same time, chatting can also divert your attention, and you will not feel so tired under the psychological effect.
"I don't know what to talk about." Zhuang Youjie stuck out his tongue and used his last bit of thought to keep himself from falling to the ground.
"Anything is fine, just chat. It will be more uncomfortable to keep walking in silence." Liang Yuanque was at the side, fanning himself with his hands, and walking unsteadily.
"Okay then," Zhuang Youjie thought for a while, "Do you like the third lady?"
Liang Yuanque chuckled, "Sure enough, it is human nature to ask for tidbits. In this case, you actually thought of this topic first."
"Stop talking nonsense," Zhuang Youjie rolled his eyes at him, "Just answer the topic that I struggled to come up with!"
Liang Yuanque twitched the corner of his mouth again and said while walking,
"I don't know where you got the feeling that I'm interested in her. I don't have any extra feelings for her, just like I do for Su Qingling."
Oh, that's it, Zhuang Youjie thought in his heart, then Student Su, you can win the game.
"But I feel that your eyes sometimes stay a little longer on the third lady," Zhuang Youjie said, thinking, "Oh, I know, you are actually doubting her!"
Liang Yuanque clicked his tongue, "I suspect everyone in the Lin family equally. If I think more of her..."
He thought for a while, as if this really couldn't be refuted, so he sighed,
"It's just that she reminds me of my sister."
"You have a sister?" Zhuang Youjie was a little surprised.
Liang Yuanque frowned at him, "How do you get the feeling that I look like an only child?"
"No, no, no," Zhuang Youjie quickly explained, "I'm just shocked that you have a family."
Okay, now the more I explain, the more confusing it becomes.
Liang Yuanque reached out and hit him on the head.
"Otherwise, am I a human form made by some mountain spirit or goblin?"
