The night is destined to be long and lively.
Tihong stood guard at the door, and there was constant noise upstairs and downstairs. Unknown to him, the owner of the room he was guarding had already left, and then came back without anyone noticing to replace him.
She had her own thoughts, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was completely treasonous. Even if the young lady has something out of the ordinary, it is not for me and my servants to comment on it.
Besides, these are all my guesses. Nothing can be done until there is conclusive evidence that something is wrong with the lady.
But at this time, she had no idea that she was dancing with wolves and that one foot was already in hell.
Yan Qingchen returned to the room and did some breathing adjustment. Heal all the wounds to 80%, leaving two points for others. After letting go of his spiritual consciousness for a moment, he realized that Que Yunzi and Yun Xingyu had not returned yet.
Then he decided to go to Fuling Pavilion. After this incident, no one came, so he must be waiting for him to come.
The wooden door opened with a creak. Tihong turned around in surprise and said, "Miss, are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Are you hungry? I'll go and make you something to eat."
In an instant, the joy of seeing the young lady safe washed away her previous worries.
Yan Qingchen raised his hand to hold her and said with a smile: "Why bother, I have something to do and need to go out. You wait for everyone to come back for me."
Tihong looked at the familiar face in front of her, with mixed feelings in her heart, and a strong sense of guilt overwhelmed her deeply.
She is so damn...
"What's the matter? Why don't you speak?" Yu Qingchen raised his eyes slightly jokingly, but there was an invisible murderous intention hidden under his smile.
Just wait for this girl to show the slightest clue, and then kill it.
Fortunately, Tihong shook her head and said: "It's nothing, I just feel sorry for the young lady. When the old landlord was here, how often did the young lady need to run around by herself?
But now, it is the young lady who does everything herself. "
Moreover, it was a thankless effort, and there were only two people on Yaoyue Peak who understood it. If Shengjun Qi hadn't been in charge, there would have been chaos long ago.
Yan Qingchen watched everything she said and did, and made sure she had no objections, then quietly revealed his murderous intention.
He then comforted her and said, "As my father's daughter, I do all this as part of my duty. If you really feel sorry for your lady, just stay in the inn for me."
In case everyone comes back, no one can find anyone. "
"Miss, don't you wait until senior Que and Mr. Baili come back?" When she said this, she deliberately avoided Yun Xingyu. It can be seen that he is still angry at Jiuyao Tower for not saving him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard guests coming up one after another downstairs.
"Hey, have you heard? It is said that the evil man has appeared and had a fierce fight with the three masters outside Jiuyao Tower."
"Yes, yes, I have heard about it too. It is said that His Highness was also plotted against. Thanks to Miss Xiaoyun, she led the people in the building to detoxify everyone."
"No, this evil man is really strong. Even if the three masters of the three families joined forces, they couldn't stop him. If I had this ability, I would be willing to die."
The master and servant listened on both sides, and after Ye Qingchen glanced at her, Tihong immediately flashed into the room and quickly closed the door.
As soon as the wooden door closed, I heard the footsteps of several people turning the corner and walking slowly and casually inside.
Tihong lowered her voice and said, "Miss?"
"Shhh...listen to what they say?" Yu Qingchen made a silent gesture.
Soon, someone else said: "Eh? Isn't that right?"
"What's wrong?"
"The three masters of the family couldn't stop it together, so how did the evil man retreat? If he doesn't kill them all as soon as possible, will the enemy still take root and grow stronger?"
"Hey, you kid is really drunk and confused. He only listened to half of the news. The three masters joined forces to protect everyone's safety. Otherwise, do you think you still have a chance to stand here and catch your breath?"
"Good brother, why am I wrong? I also admire the three masters of the family, and I don't mean to look down upon you. Tell me quickly, which hero drove away the evil man?"
When the man heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "Hehehe, let me tell you, I heard that there are more than three masters coming back, including His Highness.
There is also a big beauty, well... she lives on the same floor as us. "
"Oh...could it be Miss Yu?"
"That's right, that's right."
"Hiss, Yu Qingchen actually has such a level of cultivation?"
"What are you thinking? I mean, Miss Yu also went to help, and it was another one who drove away the evil people."
"You mean, everyone knows this person?"
"Of course, I'm telling you, you can brag as much as you want when you go out. We have the opportunity to stay in the same inn with such a big shot. How many people want to envy us but still can't."
"Hehehe, it makes sense, what you said makes sense."
"Come on, let's go to my room, brothers. I'll tell you in detail..."
From then on, the master and the servant stopped listening very carefully. But both of them looked bad. Tihong didn't like the man's frivolous tone when he mentioned the lady, and she didn't like the praise he expressed for someone.
That's a despicable person who refuses to save anyone, bah...a hypocrite.
"A bunch of short-sighted people, Miss, you don't need to get angry with them."
Yu Qingchen frowned and said, "I'm not angry about this."
"And you are?"
"Ignore it for now. Senior Que and the others will tell me when they come back that I will go to Fuling Pavilion to visit Master Chen and I will be back later."
"This slave knows."
"Well, wait for me."
Unexpectedly, not long after she left, Que Yunzi knocked on the door while wearing straw sandals.
Tihong hurriedly bowed to the courtesy and turned sideways to give way.
Queyunzi waved his hand and declined, saying: "You can just sit down. The old man is here to see how the girl is injured. Where is the owner of your building?"
"Miss's injury is no longer serious. I went to Fuling Pavilion to visit Master Chen and will return later."
"Fuling Pavilion? What is she looking for Chen Liu for?" Or is this the point?
"I don't know Tihong, but the lady has been investigating the truth about the murder of the old building owner. I heard that Fuling Pavilion is quite skilled in the investigation technique, so I think that's why the lady went there."
"Forget it, I think old man Lai Xi didn't call you back, so he should be prepared, so don't worry about the girl's safety.
In this case, the old man doesn't have to worry about this. I see that you are also very frightened tonight, so take a good rest and I will go back first. "
"Congratulations, senior." Tihong still respected him very much. The etiquette is thorough and everything is in place.
"No, no, it's just a few steps away, I can go there myself."
Queyunzi declined Tihong, put his hands behind his back, and returned to his room with a half-hunched back.
After he left, Tihong closed the door and sat in a daze under the lamp. The dim candlelight flickered, just like her wandering and tormented heart.
It is true that as Que Yunzi said, although he went out privately, Qi Shengjun tacitly approved it. Otherwise, with my abilities, how could I break through the barrier and walk down Yaoyue Peak?
In addition, there are also people protecting the young lady in the dark. It's just that they were ordered not to show up until their lives were in danger, so as not to be discovered by the young lady and spoil the young lady's affairs.
But thinking about it, the young lady today always gives me a feeling of extreme danger. This feeling may come from the young lady herself, or from worries about the future of Shuxing Tower.
In short, she is very confused now...
As Qingchen walked on the path leading to Fuling Pavilion, the cool breeze made her feel particularly clear at the moment. Under the influence of the Lord, she has not fully mastered this body until now.
She knew very well that everything had to be done quickly. Su He was already suspicious of himself. Que Yunzi and Yun Xingyu had always been on the same side with him, so obviously there was no need to say anything more.
If this continues, the showdown will only come sooner or later.
But my goal has just begun, how can I let it go easily.
Chen Liu set off the calamity shepherd early and stood at the entrance to welcome visitors.
"The inspector personally welcomed me, which makes Qingchen feel flattered."
"Master Yu is in the limelight tonight. I think everyone will know your name tomorrow. Chen is so shameless that he deserves to be welcomed in person."
"The inspector was joking, let's talk about something else. For example, what does the inspector think of everything that happened tonight?
Is it targeting Yuhaitian alone? It’s better to come prepared and don’t have other plans. "
When Chen Liu heard this, he chuckled and said without hesitation: "It's both."
"How can I see it?"
"The evil person's intention to invade the sea and sky does not happen overnight. Once you have entered a treasured place, you will not return empty-handed. Furthermore, you have already arrived. How can it be an idle stroke, prepared but not planned? Do you think this is possible?"
Yu Qingchen stared at him, looked at him carefully for a long time, and then said with a nice smile from the corner of his mouth: "Of course not.
But I don’t know if the inspector has any countermeasures for this, or if Qingchen can take precautions. "
"What are you saying, Master Yu, are you trying to make fun of Chen? How can Chen, a rough guy who deals with dead bodies all day long, have any ambition to save the world? How can I teach you?"
After Chen Liu said with a smile, he made a cold and inviting gesture.
"The examiner is too modest." Yue Qingchen knew this, but he did not insist on the topic. He changed his tone and asked calmly: "Do you have any clues about the Green Snake Stream?"
I said I was asking about the Green Snake Stream, but I was actually asking around the corner to ask about these two structures near Xiyuan Garden and Shaozhen Mansion. Chen Liu was not an idiot, so he naturally understood in his heart.
Walking forward, he said in a deep voice: "Although we have the appearance, there is one crucial thing missing. If the owner of the building has a way to prove that the evil person can use the Mercy Sword Breath, then the matter will be a certainty, and Mr. Baili will be there." You can pluck it from it, and the great revenge of the owner of the building can be avenged."
"You said I can avenge you, but the inspector doesn't want to know the real murderer of Xiao Zhouzhuang?"
What she said was very casual, like gossip. Whether it will be sunny today or rain tomorrow, there is no difference at all.
However, just such a sentence made Chen Liu break into a cold sweat. He secretly used his true energy to dispel the discomfort, and then he forced himself to calm down and said: "Chen's matter is just one incident.
When it comes to importance, how can it be compared with the master of the building? "
Yan Qingchen nodded and said, "Everyone's life is at stake, so there is no difference in severity."
Chen Liu lowered his eyes for a moment, and the wind passed by, making the leaves rustle, as if someone was singing softly, wailing and mourning.
When the wind stops, everything is gone.
"What Mr. Yu Lou said makes sense, but I don't know how to prove that anyone other than Young Master Baili can possess another Mercy Sword?"
"none."
"So, wouldn't things be difficult to handle?" Chen Liu glanced at it suspiciously. He didn't believe that as a person who could escape from the Shuxing Tower and ascend to heaven, he would have no clues about the actual murderer who held the Minshu Sword.
Then Qingchen picked up a small white flower bud from the roadside, and the unique fragrance instantly penetrated into it and lingered faintly.
It makes those who smell the fragrance stop unconsciously.
He put the flower between his fingers and played with it repeatedly until the bud suddenly withered, then he let go and said, "Is this the smell of the flower that leads to the underworld?"
Chen Liu said: "With a little bit of obsession during life and three unsettled grievances, there will be souls willing to cross life and death...to reach the other side."
"That's right. It's always driven by benefits, which makes people desperate."
"so what?"
"What?"
"Wangyou's whereabouts."
"Chen has never gone to Jiuyao Tower to watch the battle. How can he know the whereabouts of this woman?"
"Then how do you explain this flower?"
As he spoke, Yan Qingchen took out a white flower that seemed to have not yet opened from his sleeve pocket.
When Chen Liu saw this, he immediately froze on the spot.
this……
