Chapter 155: Every day is a trap, and every trap is different
The blade swept past, Chen Guanlou pinched Miss Pan's neck, and had already retreated three steps away.
Change hands.
The dagger in Miss Pan's hand went straight for Ping Ge'er.
Ping Ge'er screamed, fell to the ground. He was angry and anxious, then laughed wantonly, "Sure enough, there is a problem. I knew he had secrets on him, sure enough. The master is as wise as a god, the master is as wise as a god! Miss Pan, what are you still hesitating about!"
Chen Guanlou was alert in his heart, pushing Miss Pan away.
Unexpectedly, Miss Pan spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of her mouth; she didn't want to attack him, but bit the poison sac in her mouth and committed suicide by taking poison.
At the same time, Ping Ge'er also bit the poison sac. This old guy, his body was like a child's, the poison acted very quickly, and he died in the blink of an eye!
Miss Pan still had a breath hanging.
Chen Guanlou held her, hugging her in his arms, "You... I..."
Even though there were countless words of accusation and questioning, when the words reached his lips, they were all swallowed back.
Miss Pan leaned in his arms, her face pale, smiling bleakly, "For this day, I had expected it long ago. I will die eventually, being able to die in your arms is not a waste of this life."
"Don't say it!"
"Do you hate me?"
"Who exactly are you?" Chen Guanlou gently stroked her cheek, inquiring.
"Me? I am Miss Pan, a little widow. A little widow living across from your house."
It was as if a heavy hammer had hammered into Chen Guanlou's heart.
"Hate me! I was the one who poisoned you. Fortunately, you are lucky, actually not dying under the intoxication of life and dreams; you are the first person."
"The poison you gave me is called intoxication of life and dreams, right?"
"My name is Miss Pan, and I am the person most skilled in using poison under the master. However, all my skills were taught by the master. The person truly skilled in using poison is the master. You must be careful; you have already attracted his attention, and he will not let it go."
"Your master is Qi Laoda, right?"
Miss Pan smiled bleakly, "You must not underestimate him; like me, there are countless people under his hand. You must be careful, don't believe beautiful women; beautiful women are the best at lying."
"Don't say it."
Miss Pan revealed a relieved smile, looking at the moon in the sky, "It's so beautiful!"
Her hand slowly dropped, and her eyes slowly closed. There was still a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking satisfied, with no requests.
Chen Guanlou didn't move, his heart already desolate.
In the dead of night, he lit the boat, standing on the shore silently watching the boat crackling in the flames, gradually sinking.
The whirlpool rose, and the whole boat sank into the water.
In the deep night river water, there would inevitably be objects wandering under the water, and gradually moving away.
Chen Guanlou returned home in the middle of the night and practiced all night.
He asked for leave from the Heavenly Prison and rested at home.
Sister Chunxiang knocked on his courtyard gate, "Miss Pan is gone. Do you know the whereabouts of their mother and son? They moved away without saying a word."
Chen Guanlou shook his head, "I don't know, maybe they went to rely on relatives."
Sister Chunxiang had a head full of questions: "Could it be that she went back to her mother's house? I haven't heard her say it. This person is really, having been together for so long, without any feelings, it's too chilling."
Chen Guanlou suddenly remembered one thing, "That matter you mentioned, the matter of taking a concubine, did you tell her?"
"Didn't have time!" Sister Chunxiang patted her thigh, "Found her twice, both were busy. I thought, wait until the funeral is over to talk about this, and as a result, the person is gone. You say this matter..."
"You actually didn't have time to mention this?"
"Yes!"
Chen Guanlou suddenly rushed out of the room, and Sister Chunxiang shouted behind him, but couldn't make him stop.
He arrived at the riverbank in one breath; the river water washed away everything, leaving no traces. But he remembered the position where the boat sank, and decisively hired two men with good swimming skills with a lot of money.
"Fishing for corpses?"
"Yes!"
"Two corpses, one big and one small, should be around the sunken boat. One corpse is ten taels."
"Boss, are you sure it's ten taels, not fooling people?"
"The silver is here; as long as you fish the corpses up, the silver is yours."
Chen Guanlou took out two ingots of silver, all Kuping silver, absolutely hard currency, hard and cannot be harder.
The two swimming men saw the silver and were overjoyed, not caring about the cold, and after moving their bodies, they decisively went down into the river to fish for the corpses.
Chen Guanlou waited anxiously on the riverbank.
The two men emerged from the water several times, shaking their heads saying they didn't see the corpses, but they saw the sunken boat. The decorations on the sunken boat were still very clear, although there were traces of being burned by fire, it could still be seen that it was a sunken boat that had just sunk into the water.
Both were unwilling; ten taels of silver couldn't be obtained, and their hearts were uncomfortable. They continued to dive to fish for the corpses.
As time passed, Chen Guanlou's face became more and more gloomy.
Half an hour later, the two men with excellent swimming skills couldn't take it anymore and could only go ashore, very sorry. They had used all their skills in their lives, but they couldn't find the corpses.
"Boss, it's not that we are incompetent. There are no corpses below at all; your news must be wrong. Or the people on the boat didn't die and escaped."
"You are right, they didn't die, they all escaped."
Chen Guanlou smiled self-deprecatingly; he had been hunting geese all his life, but he still looked away.
Miss Pan had already reminded him not to believe beautiful women, beautiful women are the best at lying, he didn't understand the deep meaning in it at the time, and actually moved his feelings and felt sad because of her few words.
Cheated once, and fell for the second trap, every trap is different.
He really, he secretly cursed: Idiot!
He still gave the two swimming men an extra sum of money; it was not easy to go down into the water to fish for corpses in such cold weather. The two swimming men took the money and were overjoyed, laughing until they saw their teeth but not their eyes.
"Boss, if there is work next time, look for us again. Our brothers live in the village in front, on call."
"Fine! Next time there is work, I will look for you."
On the way back, Chen Guanlou walked very slowly.
He reviewed all the things, in fact, everything had traces to follow.
Miss Pan and the old thief Ping Ge'er were people who didn't know martial arts; the old thief Ping Ge'er was slightly stronger, having a unique skill of throwing flying darts. In short, the martial arts value of the two people added together was approximately equal to zero.
However, Qi Laoda was very relieved to send these two people to do the mission, and didn't even arrange for anyone to respond. From this, it could be seen that although these two people didn't know martial arts, their skills were stronger than warriors. Not only did they know how to poison, but they also knew how to fake death and escape, and their swimming skills must be extremely high. In such cold water, and in the middle of the night, wanting to escape without alarming him, their swimming skills must be extremely high.
Strange people!
He should have been alert.
The old thief Ping Ge'er was a strange person. To be able to mix into the middle and upper levels of the abductor group with such a small size and be valued, relying on a child-like face and voice was definitely not enough.
In the end, he still committed the problem of underestimating the "weak"; from beginning to end, he didn't really put the old thief Ping Ge'er in his eyes, and didn't really value him.
As for beauty misleading people, he wouldn't admit it even if he died.
He still wants face! ===== CHAPTER 156 =====
