Shi Xiaowen never expected that as a first-class expert, he would be knocked unconscious by a stick from the back of the head in full view of everyone.
Perhaps it was because he was unlucky and happened to walk into a teahouse under the name of Ruyi Trading Company, and there was no business that afternoon, so He Nan could walk through the door in a dignified manner, stand behind Shi Xiaowen, and wave a wooden stick.
When he woke up, the first thing he saw was an unlucky face. Along with the evil smile on that face were his limbs that were tied together. Shi Xiaowen felt that his limbs were so limp that they didn't feel like him. Body parts - If he hadn't drugged Shi Xiaowen's tea in advance, He Nan wouldn't have had the courage to sneak attack a person who was much stronger than him. Speaking of being drugged by He Nan, Shi Xiaowen entered the palace for the second time. From here, it can be seen that this guy really has no vigilance.
"I said, why are your hospitality skills getting better and better..." Shi Xiaowen looked at the surrounding environment and estimated that this should be a restaurant or something like that. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted Wei Kui, who was standing by like a door god. At this time, he gave up the idea of resistance and turned to negotiate with He Nan.
"If you want to use the word 'cheap' to describe it, I have no objection." He Nan spread his hands. There is nothing wrong with using despicable methods to deal with a fool like Shi Xiaowen. This guy is one who won't shed tears until he sees the coffin. type, he must be made clear about his situation before he is willing to tell the truth.
However, the two-skinned person was not the most difficult type He Nan had dealt with in the past. Compared with those who were stubborn, Shi Xiaowen was still very easy to communicate with. As long as he opened his mouth, He Nan would be confident to pry out key information.
Both He Nan himself, Wei Kui, Brother Yan and even Ni Tu around him all have very strong reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities. Among them, Old Wei is better at field reconnaissance, while Brother Yan majors in details. Observation and confirmation, as for Nitu... This guy can even rely on memory and eyesight to confirm how the furnishings in a room are different from a few days ago. A rich and unkind timber merchant has been used as a piggy bank by You Tu for some time. After the warehouse was stolen many times, the merchant strengthened his vigilance and set up a dragnet to wait for the gentleman in Liang Shang to come again. However, Mi Tu only had a wooden The risk was confirmed by moving the display shelf two inches to the left and he escaped the trap unscathed. His conclusion was, "It is impossible to put things that have been moved back intact."
As for He Nan, Shi Xiaowen's loyalty to Chai Sichou had been shaken by him, but even he did not expect that it would actually come in handy today as a foreshadowing.
"How about we be honest with each other... Why did you wander over to Yueyue County? What are you doing here?" He Nan untied the rope for Shi Xiaowen, looked at the angry Shi Xiaowen with a smile on his face, and tried to Start the conversation in a fairly straightforward way.
"Damn, what else do I want to ask you to do? I just wanted to drink tea, but I bumped into you, the god of plague, again?" Shi Xiaowen was also quite unconvinced. He tried to move his arms until his arms gradually recovered. After some effort, he continued: "Tell me first, how did you find me?"
"I said we met by chance, do you believe it?" He Nan crossed his legs and raised the stick in his hand arrogantly.
Shi Xiaowen heard that this was an irony, but he liked to argue by nature, and he also knew that He Nan would do this, so he said: "Whoever believes that someone has a brain problem, just knock me out with a stick in public." No one came to stop you? Why didn't I know that you, He Nan, still have such a big reputation in Yueyue City?"
"Hmph, there are so many things you don't know!" He Nan curled his lips and slammed the stick on the ground: "If you are more honest, what should we do after we finish talking? I'll treat you to a meal." I'll treat it like a loss of food. But if you don't obey me, then you can sleep here from now on."
Shi Xiaowen showed his buck teeth and was about to say something stupid to retaliate, but he still noticed the look in He Nan's eyes - in his impression, although He Nan was mentally disturbed, he was by no means a violent person. This vicious look probably didn't belong to him, it was as if someone else was looking at him through He Nan's eyes.
"You have changed a lot..." Shi Xiaowen sighed, then twisted his wrist to pull out the wooden chair from under the table, and sat down on it: "Okay, let's serve. I'll tell you what you want to know. That’s it for you—but I still have a request.”
"Say." He Nan threw the stick away and sat across from Shi Xiaowen.
"I answer a question for you, and you have to answer a question for me." Shi Xiaowen felt a little proud of his request. He knew that He Nan would definitely agree, so the beating he received was not in vain.
"Okay, then you ask first!" He Nan accepted Shi Xiaowen's conditions without hesitation. For him, the revealed cards and hidden cards were the same. What he needed now was to see what cards the opponent was holding.
Let Shi Xiaowen ask first, which means that He Nan is leading the other party by the nose, because Shi Xiaowen is still ignorant of the information around him, and He Nan, who is the second questioner, can stop at any time after getting the answer. ——Actually, it's not like he can't use tougher methods to force out some answers, but now that it's like this, it doesn't make any sense for him to cheat anymore.
"Then tell me first, what's going on with me today? I just arrived at Yueyue City yesterday, and you caught me today? Do you have eyes on me?" Shi Xiaowen filled a cup of wine for himself. Put it into his mouth: "Let's talk about it first. If you talk nonsense, I will talk nonsense too."
"Okay." He Nan said with a smile, and then gave Shi Xiaowen an understanding: "The reason why you were knocked unconscious by a stick is because you came to my territory. Do you understand?"
"Your territory?" Shi Xiaowen couldn't believe it. His only congratulations were nonsense: "If you say that, then we really have nothing to talk about!"
He Nan pursed his lips and said noncommittally: "Believe it or not, but you have to know that this is not an accident - you have found me without a trace in the vast land, and it's hard to guard against the magic weapon that descended from the sky when I catch you."
Shi Xiaowen snorted, but then he thought that now that he was in someone else's hands, if he said anything else he would just be asking for trouble, and then said: "Then you can ask."
"Mahajia, what's his status among Wuyi?" He Nan threw a big move as soon as he came up, and the effect was quite obvious. Shi Xiaowen's expression suddenly changed in shock - it was like two people competing in martial arts, and one of them wanted to He feinted to test the opponent's methods, but the other one came up and stabbed the opponent in the heart.
Just like the last time he tortured Shi Xiaowen, He Nan went through many problems again, as if the things he knew were very conclusive - in fact, he couldn't even confirm whether Mahaka and Wuyi were affiliated or cooperative, but he was Dare to bet.
If the bet loses, Shi Xiaowen can then make nonsense, and He Nan will be under great pressure - he can only desperately filter out the trustworthy parts of Shi Xiaowen's answers; but if the bet wins... he You can hear everything you want to hear.
"I didn't expect you really have two brushes, He Fucheng." Shi Xiaowen grinned bitterly. Although he tried to stay calm, the turbulent waves in his heart showed no signs of calming down.
"Stop talking nonsense, I'll kill you if I say I'll kill you." He Nan threatened with a smile, lying calmly: "I know more things than you think."
Shi Xiaowen really fell into the trap. He really thought that He Nan was deliberately testing him with the other party's known information, so he said: "Mahajia is the sworn brother of Chai Sichou like me. His nickname is ' Bodhisattva is barbaric'."
"He doesn't have a clear position in Wu Yi, but Brother Chai will leave many important things to him, so his status is still quite high - I say this, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied." He Nan nodded and said without changing his expression: "Then I'm going to start the second question..."
"Wait, my second question hasn't been asked yet!" Shi Xiaowen shouted that it was unfair. Why did He Nan quietly skip his part?
"Ah? I thought 'Are you satisfied' was your second question!" He Nan was prepared for this. It can even be said that he deliberately interfered with Shi Xiaowen's mood and made him feel "cheerful" The atmosphere gradually relaxed.
"Why do you want to ask me who Mahaka is?" Shi Xiaowen would also ask this question - as long as He Nan answered this question, he would naturally understand and even deduce the reason why He Nan heard the name of this monk. way.
"I heard it from a Hu Shang in the Western Regions. He made a deal with your 'Bodhisattva Barbarian'." He Nanke was smart, and he didn't reveal any information that he could - who was Hu Shang? , the content of the transaction was not revealed a word, which added an extra burden to Shi Xiaowen.
Of course, Shi Xiaowen was not stupid. After exchanging several rounds of questions with He Nan, he finally connected many clues together: "Dare you... the robbery at the Taiping Escort Bureau has something to do with you?" ?”
"Haha..." He Nan sneered expressionlessly: "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth - I said that the chief escort of Taiping Escort Bureau is my father-in-law, do you believe it?"
Of course, He Nan said this casually, because before Shi Xiaowen had time to be surprised or think, he had already fallen unconscious on the table again.
…………
He Nan threw Shi Xiaowen, who had been numbed by the sweat medicine, to Wei Kui for custody, and left the restaurant alone. As long as Shi Xiaowen didn't run away, he actually wasn't worried that anyone would see the flaws in his game in a short time. Come, not to mention that keeping Shi Xiaowen alive can still be useful, and he left in a hurry to do another thing.
In the Taiping Escort Bureau, there was a very important guest... waiting for him.
Some people died, but not completely...
