Chapter 686: Implicated
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Young Master, this matter might have a lot of implications.” Chi Jia’s expression was very serious. “It might be related to the many assassinations you encountered when you were young.”
Before Qin Huai could speak, he heard Ah Yu’s voice suddenly appear. “What? Big Brother Ah You was assassinated when he was young?”
Ah Yu jumped out of the inner room, not even caring that her outer clothes were in a mess. “Teacher Chi Jia, what’s going on?”
Chi Jia: “…Miss Ah Yu, you’re here too.”
He was too careless. He was used to talking directly. Moreover, Young Master did not give him any other instructions, so he naturally said it.
Now, Qin Huai’s house in Hu Family Village had many secret tunnels dug under it. They were almost connected to the entire underground area of Hu Family Village.
However, after the Wang Family left in large numbers, only two people were left here to guard the house. Usually, they would repair the secret passages and help take care of Hu Family Village to prevent anything major from happening. They couldn’t let them do too many other missions.
It was precisely because of this that they looked confused about the situation in Shanyang Village.
However, they did not expect this matter to be even more complicated than they had imagined.
Qin Huai did not expect Chi Jia to suddenly mention the assassination. He had almost forgotten the days when he was in a state of panic.
Previously, he had been playing chess with Ah Yu and fell asleep while playing. He had carried All Yu inside to sleep.
The two children had grown up together since they were young. When they were traveling, they were not so particular, including the Wang Family’s Big Brothers. Sometimes, they would sleep on each other’s beds.
Unexpectedly, his past was exposed this time.
“It’s fine. We just encountered a few bandits. Chi Jia exaggerated.” Qin Huai comforted All Yu.
Ah Yu said, “Big Brother Ah You, don’t coax me like a child! Forget it, let Teacher Chi Jia tell us the information they found first.”
She also wanted to compare whether it was different from what the elf had said.
Seeing Qin Huai nod, Chi Jia said, “Those people aren’t a complete entity. They’re divided into a few factions. What we found are the surviving members of the Beixing Kingdom and the descendants of our once disposed king.”
This matter was actually more complicated. Perhaps what was certain was that these people had no conflict of interest with Hu Family Village. They even needed the prosperity of Hu Family Village to cover for them.
However, this group of people was a huge hidden danger. Once they chose to take action, Hu Family Village would be the first to bear the brunt. The entire village might be destroyed, not to mention the people in the village.
After all, these people had never considered the lives of the villagers of Hu Family Village from the beginning.
With the combination of the two sides and Old Madam Wang’s words, Ah Yu came to a realization. “So, the number of people is definitely not limited to just these in front of us. Perhaps there are countless such strongholds in the mountain.”
Qin Huai: “That’s why we should listen to Grandma this time. This matter is too big. We have to let others resolve it.”
Ah Yu nodded as well. “I know. Previously, 1 thought that it was only a small group of people. That way, we’ll think of a way to deal with them ourselves. But from the looks of it, this is a game between countries. We children really shouldn’t interfere too much, and we can’t control it. Therefore, we’d better return to the capital early and let the capable adults deal with it.”
“Yes, that’s indeed the case.”
After some discussion, the two of them decided that they had to return to the capital as soon as possible. After all, even if they did not care about anything, they had to protect these people from Hu Family Village.
In the game between countries, mortals suffered. Other than them, no one would care about the Hu Family Village..
