Qin Yuezong and Qin Miao were both dumbfounded. They had obviously visited the dungeon not long ago.
Although in the past, Wei Ping only stood outside the door and asked questions without entering the dungeon, but even if Wei Ping was unwilling to pay attention to them, he would at least respond to them by throwing a stone on the iron door and then saying nothing. To express his determination never to reveal the information.
In order to make Wei Ping endure more torture, except for Qin Yuezong who would occasionally come over to open the iron door and put a water jar in, he would usually throw a bag of food in every three or four days.
Wei Ping never had enough to eat and was starving to death, so he just lingered on.
Just the day before Shao Xi came to their Qin family, Qin Yuezong had just brought some water and food to Weiping. When he closed the iron door, Weiping also threw a stone at the door, which is enough to prove that before that, Weiping Still in the dungeon.
Today, Wei Ping disappeared inexplicably. This made Qin Yuezong immediately think of Shao Xi and Lao Wu, but how did these two people know that there was a dungeon in their home? How do you know there is someone hiding in this dungeon?
If he didn't know something about his family, it would be impossible for someone to discover that there was a dungeon hidden behind the bookshelf in his study, unless he knew the Qin family thoroughly.
Who are these two people?
Now it seems that it is no longer as simple as simply defrauding him of the Qin family's property. These two people should know the Qin family thoroughly, and even know the secret layout of his home.
It seems that they entered the Qin family this time not just to defraud the Qin family's property, but because they knew that Wei Ping was in their hands.
Now that Weiping is rescued, it must be related to the treasure of Wuhai Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuezong finally understood that he was not only being plotted against, but also being plotted against in a planned way.
When the other party set up such a big game, the ultimate goal was not the 20,000 taels of silver, nor his Qin family's property, but the Wuhai Kingdom's treasure.
At this time, Qin Yuezong felt that it was getting dark. Unexpectedly, Shao Xi had cut off his last escape route. Not to mention whether the Qin family would have a chance to turn around in the future, Weiping alone was rescued, and the Qin family's father and son His life is already in danger.
If this matter were made public, both father and son would be doomed.
However, Qin Yuezong had another thought. Since Shao Xi and his servant were able to rescue Wei Ping, it was obvious that their purpose must be the Wuhai treasure.
In this case, they will not announce this matter, because doing so would be tantamount to making the Wuhai Kingdom's treasure public.
If their goal is treasure, they must hope that as few people know about it as possible. From the looks of it, it is not likely that the father and son will be sued.
But think about it, the father and son of the Qin family are really losing money and money right now! The family property was gone, and even the hope of finally turning around was taken away by Shao Xi, which completely cut off all their thoughts.
Qin Yuezong sat down on the ground and murmured: "It's him, it must be him! He is the only one who knows that I imprisoned Wei Ping, and he is the only one who can find this place, but who is Shao Xi?" Why would you do this for him?"
Qin Miao was also stunned at this time. Looking at his father's reaction, he was also a little confused for a moment.
"Father, who is the person you are talking about? Who can understand our Qin family so clearly?"
"Miao'er, do you still remember that my second junior brother Wu Jianren came to our house more than 20 years ago? At that time, he discovered that you and my son imprisoned Wei Ping. He tried to rescue Wei Ping and was injured by me. , you chased him all the way again, and finally disappeared without a trace. Unexpectedly, he came back more than twenty years later."
Of course Qin Miao remembered this, but Qin Yuezong's words made him a little confused.
"Father, what you mean is that the person named Shao Xi who came to our Qin family to defraud and rescued Wei Ping was arranged by Wu Jian back then?"
"No! In fact, he is in front of you and me, father and son, every day, but we didn't recognize him. Have you forgotten his nickname? In addition to his good movement skills, what he is best at is disguising himself."
"Father is saying that Shao Xi is Wu Jianren in disguise? But it doesn't look like it! Shao Xi looks like a young man in his late twenties. No matter how good Wu Jianren's disguise skills are, he cannot I have become so young!”
Qin Yuezong glanced at Qin Miao with eyes that hated iron but could not be transformed into steel, and shook his head helplessly.
"Shao Xi is not in disguise. The one who is in disguise is the old servant next to him. That person is my junior brother Wu Jianren. I didn't expect that his disguise skills have improved over the years. I didn't recognize him for a while. .
"What I don't understand is that back then, Wu Jianren could not be said to have the power to restrain a chicken. Apart from his good body skills, he couldn't even defeat an ordinary person. But you said that he was good at martial arts and at least had the "Qi Control Realm" ” Realm, could it be that he has cultivated to such an extent in the past twenty years?
"And who is Shao Xi? What is his relationship with him? Why can he cooperate with him to do this? Wu Jianren has always been a loner. For this young man to cooperate with him, there must be no relationship between the two. generally."
Qin Miao reacted after being reminded by Qin Yuezong.
Just say it! How could there be such ugly people in this world? He had always thought that the old servant beside Shao Xi was outrageously ugly.
And such a person could not even get close to more than a dozen young and strong servants in his family. Even he could not believe that the man who was chased by him more than twenty years ago and fled in embarrassment was now at a level of martial arts. Almost the same as myself.
You must know that he has been practicing continuously for more than 20 years. When he was chasing Lao Wu, he was already in the third-level realm. In the past 20 years, he has only reached the late fourth-level realm.
And how could this old guy advance in martial arts so quickly and also enter the "Qi Control Realm" in the same period of time?
This is simply unbelievable. Could it be that all of this is related to the young man named Shao Xi next to him?
But thinking about it now seems to be meaningless. Even if the father and son want to take revenge on Lao Wu, they don't know where Lao Wu and Shao Xi have gone at this moment.
What they have to face now is the reality that the Qin family has gone bankrupt. Weiping has also been rescued by Shao Xi and the others. This also means that the father and son will never have a chance to make a comeback. The Wuhai National Treasure is just a treasure to them after all. An illusory dream.
What you need to do now is to face reality and stop thinking about useless things.
"Father, what should we do now? The family property is gone, and Wei Ping has been rescued by them. Is this the decline of our Qin family, with no chance of improvement?"
Qin Miao's words made Qin Yuezong feel so useless! He knew very well that this time it was not just because of the negligence of the father and son, but because someone deliberately set up a trap to retaliate against the Qin family and his son.
To defraud them of all their wealth and to rescue Wei Ping, the other party had two goals.
The first is to avenge the Qin family and his son; the second is to come here for the treasure of Wuhai Kingdom.
In the final analysis, rescuing Weiping is their ultimate goal, and defrauding them of all their wealth is just further revenge on them.
Qin Yuezong knew that this time he was completely defeated. The other party did not leave any escape route for him. What he should consider at this time was something more realistic. Even if he was unwilling to give in, it would be meaningless to gnash his teeth with hatred.
Qin Yuezong couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He had always thought he was smart all his life, but he didn't expect that he would meet a master now and be manipulated by others. Although he felt useless, there was nothing he could do.
Or think about how the father and son will survive in the days to come, right?
So he stood up from the ground, crestfallen, and patted Qin Miao on the shoulder with a frustrated look.
"Miao'er! We lost, we lost completely, we lost completely! Now we, father and son, should not think too much. Think about how our family property will be taken away by Taihe Trading Bank in a few days. What should we do in the future? How to live it!
"Your father, I started out as a thief, and then I started a business, and I never thought of passing this skill on to you. Now that we have come to this point, I can take care of you for a while, but I can't take care of you for the rest of my life. You should also think about the future. How can I survive? Everything in the past is just a passing cloud."
When Qin Miao heard what Qin Yuezong said, his whole body went numb.
Over the years, I have only learned from my father how to cheat and do the so-called "profit-making" businesses. Apart from practicing martial arts with my father, I have learned nothing else!
If we talk about doing small business in the future, where will we have the capital? Back then, my father had earned his fortune by sneaking around, but I didn't have this ability!
Now that his father is so old, the most he can do if he returns to his old business is to maintain food and clothing for the father and son. But in the future, what can he do if his father is gone?
Thinking of this, Qin Miao couldn't help but feel dizzy, and was filled with fear about the unknown future. Could it be that one day he would have to make a living by blocking roads and robbing people, and become a thief wandering around the world?
But looking at my age, I'm afraid that even if I become a thief, I won't be able to do it for a few years, right? Maybe in the end he will just become an old beggar begging on the street.
Thinking of this, Qin Miao couldn't help but feel chilled in his heart. Although he had not had a good life since he was a child, he could still be said to have had enough food and clothing. How could he end up like this one day?
"Father, is it possible that my Qin family will never be able to succeed from now on? Will you and my son live on the streets and become beggars from now on? My son is unwilling to accept it! If one day I find those two people, I will definitely They must be cut into pieces, otherwise it will be difficult to understand the hatred in my heart!"
Qin Yuezong had a wry smile on his face. What's the use of Qin Miao saying this now? If someone came to exact revenge more than twenty years later, how could he not have a way out?
revenge? I'm afraid I will never have such an opportunity again in this life.
