Chapter 62: Mrs. Ma

  The four brothers laughed again, and Qiao Feng's mood, which had been affected by the inexplicable rebellion in the gang earlier, improved a lot. He walked back to Quan Guanqing and said, "Quan Gang Master, what do you have to say?"

  "I rebel against you for the sake of the country and the people, for the foundation of the Beggar Clan's hundred generations. Unfortunately, the person who told me your true identity is afraid of death and dares not show up. You can kill me with one sword strike."

  At this point, Chen Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: "It's coming."

  Qiao Feng hesitated for a moment, and asked in doubt: "What's wrong with my origin? Just say it."

  Quan Guan Qing shook his head and said: "At this moment, I'm just talking nonsense, no one will believe me, it's better for you to kill me."

  Qiao Feng loudly said: "A real man has something to say, why must he be tongue-tied and hesitant? Quan Guanqing is a good fellow, not afraid of death, what's there to worry about when speaking?"

  Chen Xiao heard this, pulled Zhou Botong and Duan Yu to sit down, Wang Yuyan and A Zhu A Bi three women hastily searched for clean cloth strips to bandage the three of them. Wang Yuyan had previously traveled with Duan Yu together, earlier Ouyang Ke made a move on her and it was Duan Yu who spoke up first, so she felt closer to him and took charge of bandaging him.

  Duan Yu's skin was painful, but his heart was delighted. He thought to himself: "If the fairy sister can bandage my wound for me, even if I get stabbed ten or twenty more times, it doesn't matter."

  Thinking of this, he suddenly thought: "Ah, no, that's not right. If I were stabbed ten or twenty times, wouldn't Brother Zhou, Second Brother Qiao, and Fifth Brother Chen also have to be stabbed ten or twenty times? No, no, absolutely not!"

  Abi was bandaging Chen Xiao's wound, she had met him first before, and said softly while bandaging: "Master Chen, next time don't come like this, you don't know martial arts, excessive blood loss will be dangerous."

  Chen Xiao smiled and said: "For the sake of brothers, getting a little hurt is nothing. But in the future, I will listen to Sister Abi's words and try not to get hurt."

  The old rascal on the side was flushed with a red face, jumping up and down, saying: "Aye, aye, you don't touch me, I've never been near women in my life, give me the cloth strip, I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself."

  Chen Xiao turned her head and almost burst out laughing.

  It turned out that A Zhu wanted to bandage Zhou Botong, but Zhou Botong was afraid and wanted to do it himself.

  This week, Bo Tong's martial arts talent is very high, but his emotional intelligence is just average. The women he has encountered in his life can be counted on one hand.

  A Zhu was also giggling uncontrollably, thinking that this old rascal had extremely high martial arts skills, but when facing her, he acted like a little kid, it's really interesting.

  She originally had a talent, that is, she could imitate anyone, and even the people closest to her couldn't tell. At this time, her mischievous heart suddenly arose, and she suddenly imitated Zhou Botong's voice, saying: "Ah yo, ah yo, you don't move, you are me, I am you, I won't give you the cloth strip, I'll help you, I'll help you."

  The old man's eyebrows and beard were shocked to fly up, staring at Azhu with wide eyes, and exclaimed: "Huh? I didn't say anything just now, did you say that, little girl?"

  "A Zhu giggled and then straightened her face, saying: 'Well, I spoke earlier, it was this girl who said it.'"

  "Haha, fun, fun!"

  Zhou Botong got Ah Zhu this mischievous girl, and the two of them didn't even care about bandaging their wounds, in the blink of an eye they were tangled up together.

  At this moment, a horse suddenly came over here at high speed, and the knight on the horse shouted loudly: "Urgent military situation!"

  Everyone present looked in that direction.

  In the blink of an eye, the horseman had galloped up close and dismounted. The man wore a wide robe with large sleeves, his attire was extremely luxurious, but he quickly removed his outer garment, revealing underneath the Beggar Clan's uniform with hundred knots.

  That man walked up to Qiao Feng, respectfully presented a small package and said: "Urgent military situation..." Only these four words were spoken, he was out of breath, suddenly, the horse that brought him here let out a sad neigh, fell to the ground, and died from exhaustion.

  Qiao Feng saw that this person was so desperate, the message he conveyed must be extremely important and exceptionally urgent. He immediately opened it and found a wax pellet inside.

  Chen Xiao looked from afar and thought that this should be the letter reporting the Xixia Yipintang's aphrodisiac.

  But unexpectedly, just as Qiao Feng was about to unfold it and take a look, he suddenly heard a woman's voice, saying: "Quickly stop him, military secrets must not be let Qiao Feng see!"

  Qiao Feng was full of doubts and secretly thought: "Why does today's matter seem so strange everywhere? Never mind, let's just wait and see what happens."

  Just then, a small sedan chair emerged from behind the forest, carried by two strong men who moved swiftly and flew to the middle of the forest, where they put it down and lifted the curtain.

  A young woman in plain dress slowly stepped out of the sedan chair.

  The young woman lowered her head and curtsied to Qiao Feng, saying: "Widow Ma of the Ma family pays respects to the leader."

  Qiao Feng returned the courtesy and said: "Sister-in-law, you're too polite!"

  Chen Xiao concentrated on sizing up Mrs. Ma, at this time the sunset was about to set, and the soft yellow light shone on her face, revealing wrinkles between her eyebrows and eyes, probably around 35 or 36 years old, with no makeup on her face, her skin was white and delicate, surprisingly a beauty, almost comparable to Ah Zhu who was playing with Lao Wanjun beside her.

  Mrs. Ma was indeed beautiful in appearance, but Chen Xiao knew that she was a person with a heart as venomous as a snake and scorpion.

  She will go all out to destroy what she wants but can't get.

  He intended to harm Qiao Feng, how could Chen Xiao not know? Fortunately, the foundation had been laid earlier, and now it was necessary to consider how to start. After all, this matter involved too many important things, and Chen Xiao also remembered some of them unclearly. What exactly did Mrs. Ma have in her hand that made it difficult for him to think of a way out at the moment?

  At this time, only Mrs. Ma said in a low voice: "My former husband unfortunately passed away, and I can only blame my fate for being bitter. What's more sad is that my former husband did not leave behind even one son or daughter to continue the Ma family line..." Although she spoke very softly, her voice was clear and crisp, and every word entered the ears of the crowd, and it was very moving.

  She spoke to this point, her words slightly choked with sobs, and the countless heroes in the apricot forest all felt a pang of sadness.

  Chen Xiao sneered coldly on the side: "Fake it, keep faking! If I don't rip off your face today, my surname is not Chen!"

  Chen Xiao furrowed his brow and thought to himself, "This is a tricky situation. Although I know she's been involved with several people, I don't have any evidence. As the saying goes, 'to catch a thief, you need to catch them in the act, and to catch an adulterer, you need to catch them together.' If I make baseless accusations, everyone will think I'm slandering her, which would be disastrous."

  Now Chen Xiao is facing the problem that he knows Mrs. Ma must have had an affair with several people, and Ma Dayuan was not killed by Murong Fu, but by her and her lover. However, in this world, the relationships between characters change greatly, and for a while, Chen Xiao couldn't be sure who Mrs. Ma had slept with.

  If this matter goes wrong, then everything will be over, Qiao Feng's reputation and career will be ruined, and he will have done himself a great disservice.

  At this time, only Mrs. Ma said: "After the little woman buried her husband and checked his belongings, she saw a letter sealed with fire wax in the place where he collected boxing manuals. The envelope read: 'If I die of natural causes, burn this letter immediately, and whoever opens it will be destroying my legacy, making me restless in the afterlife. If I die under unnatural circumstances, hand this letter over to the elders of our clan for joint reading, as it concerns a major matter that must not be mistaken.'"

  Qiao Feng had already sensed a major conspiracy against him from the various events of tonight. At this moment, when Madam Ma spoke to this point, he felt relieved and calm, thinking: "What plot do you have? Bring it on! Qiao has never done anything wrong in his life, no matter what harm or frame-up, what is there for Qiao to fear?"

  At this time, Mrs. Ma slowly untied a hemp package from her body, opened the package, took out a letter and said: "This is the will of my late husband, Ma Danyuan. The ancestors, grandfathers, and fathers of Danyuan were all members of the Beggar Gang, either as elders or eight-bag disciples. His handwriting should be very familiar to everyone."

  She took this letter and did not give it to Qiao Feng, but unexpectedly also did not give it to Hong Qi Gong, and instead handed it over to Bai Shi Jing.

  Chen Xiao watched from the side, and suddenly a thought flashed through her mind. She secretly thought: "This Bai Shiming seems to be one of her adulterers, huh? There was indeed someone like him in the original story. Now that I think about it, it shouldn't be wrong."

  Bai Shiming held the envelope and walked among the beggars in the field, finally returning to the eight elders of the Beggars' Sect. After they all nodded in agreement, he said loudly: "The words on this letter are indeed written by Dayuan. The seal is still intact, no one has touched it."

  Chen Xiao stroked his chin thoughtfully, then suddenly saw Ah Zhu beside him, and a flash of inspiration struck him, he already had a plan in mind.

  But for now, there is still one most important thing missing, and if this is not resolved, then the previous plan cannot be implemented.
