Guiyun Villa was still Wujiu Villa yesterday.
If a manor of such a scale were to be destroyed by a fire, the fire would have to last for at least three days and three nights, which would inevitably cause unnecessary panic and attention.
If you want to destroy an unknown secret, you must not let others notice the details of the operation. The best way is of course to operate at night, because there is no one at night.
The manor is still there, but there is no trace of anyone.
The portraits in Wugou Villa suddenly evaporated and disappeared out of thin air.
But the people from Guiyun Villa are still there, could this old beggar be the new owner of Guiyun Villa?
The old beggar was very old, he looked to be in his sixties, his fluffy and messy beard and hair had almost turned gray, and the clothes on his body were in tatters, but the expression on his face at this moment seemed extremely high-spirited.
No matter who suddenly owns a house as big as Guiyun Villa, he should be proud.
The old beggar's surname is Hu, and others call him Old Man Hu because he is indeed an old man.
Old Man Hu was sleeping soundly in the ruined temple last night when he was suddenly carried into a carriage like a chicken and then brought to this dazzling manor.
Old Man Hu didn't show too much fear. For people like him, the biggest fear is not death, but the loneliness of not having a fixed place, and the panic of not having a good meal.
But he was no longer lonely and panicked immediately, because the person who brought him here said something to him.
"This manor will be yours from now on. You can live here forever. I guarantee that no one will come to trouble you. But you can't dirty it or set it on fire, otherwise you will regret it. ." The person who spoke did not sound threatening to Old Man Hu, but Old Man Hu's legs were shaking. He was so old that he was no longer afraid of facing death, because people like him might die quietly at any time, but that man The sound of the voice frightened him, deeply frightened him.
"Have you seen clearly who brought you here? Is there anything special about him?" Xiao Ding smiled, trying his best to make Old Man Hu feel that he had no ill intentions.
"No, he has been standing with his back to me, as if he never likes to sit down. By the way, he is wearing clothes as white as snow, as white as if he had just stepped out of the clouds." Old Man Hu tried hard to remember. Because he saw Sikong Zhaiyue flicking his sword from time to time, with black lines on his face.
"Is he a man or a woman? Is he old?" Xiao Ding always seemed to have this gentle smile on his face.
"Of course he is a man, or a young man, but he speaks very slowly, as if he is afraid of saying the wrong thing every word, and his voice...?" Old Man Hu felt that the person speaking in front of him was not dangerous. At least he doesn't look like a random jerk.
"What's his voice like?"
"The voice he spoke felt very close, yet it sounded far away. It was floating here and there. I can't describe the feeling. Anyway, I would rather never hear that kind of voice." Old Man Hu shouted excitedly. Shivering and seeming to have lingering fears.
After going around in circles, they still found nothing, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
After leaving Guiyun Villa, Tang Qingqing's voice was also a little frustrated: "It seems that if this continues, we won't be able to find any useful clues."
Ye Rongqiu said nothing, seeming to acquiesce in what she said.
Sikong Zhaiyue lowered his head and said nothing.
Xiao Ding took a deep breath and smiled: "Who said that? We have found at least two things now."
"What two things?" Tang Qingqing was still listless, as if she had no hope in her heart.
Xiao Ding smiled and said slowly: "First, the opponent is a young man, a young man who loves to be clean. Second, he likes to wear a mask when he acts and speaks very distinctively."
Tang Qingqing and Ye Rongqiu rolled their eyes at Xiao Ding at the same time. What kind of clue is this?
The streets are full of people like this. Which rich young man is not young and clean? Now even if their opponent is in front of them, they have no way to confirm it.
"This man must have a serious mysophobia. Even if he doesn't live in the villa, he still orders others to clean the villa spotlessly. He likes white clothes, and the villa is also named Wugou. Although he makes Wugou Villa Disappeared out of thin air, but Xinzhuangyuan was named Guiyun. When he returned from the clouds, he was clean and still flawless, which proves that this person pursues the ultimate perfection in his work. Guiyun Guiyun means that one day he will return from the clouds. " Xiao Ding spoke very slowly, trying his best to let them understand what he meant.
"This person likes to control the destiny of others. As long as he is willing, everyone in the world can be used as pawns for his use. Characters like Old Man Hu and the fat woman, even if they disappear suddenly, no one will care, no one will even notice them. Does a person ever exist? If he achieves his goal, the puppet he placed here will naturally disappear." Xiao Ding continued to analyze.
Ye Rongqiu said indifferently: "This kind of person is thoughtful and extremely confident. He must be a terrible opponent."
Tang Qingqing asked: "What is his purpose?"
Xiao Ding sighed and said with a smile: "I can't guess. I only know that there is definitely more than one person in him. Things like stealing escorts, creating a Wushu Villa out of thin air, and then letting it disappear overnight are definitely not the same." What one person can accomplish is what the maids, servants, and that fat woman in Wuju Villa can do. Even destroying the corpses and eradicating traces after killing people requires a lot of manpower. It is impossible for one person to do it. "
Ye Rongqiu asked in shock: "You mean they are a well-trained organization?"
"That's right." Xiao Ding replied with a wry smile.
Tang Qingqing also sighed and frowned slightly: "It's really confusing. At first, there was only the Qinglong Society and the Dragon Capture Sect. Later, there was the Money Gang, and now suddenly another unknown organization came out."
"What should we do next? Where should we go to investigate?" Sikong Zhaiyue was already furious.
Xiao Ding smiled and said: "I'm not going anywhere, just here. It's hard to come to the south of the Yangtze River. Now that I'm here, I'll be at ease. We should take a good tour and appreciate the beautiful scenery of Suzhou and Hangzhou."
Tang Qingqing, Ye Rongqiu, and Sikong Zhaiyue looked at Xiao Ding's expression and suddenly seemed to see a madman.
Of course Xiao Ding is not crazy, he is more sane than anyone else.
"The rivers and lakes are so big, why did they choose to escort the escorts to Jiangnan?" Xiao Ding smiled calmly and asked a question.
Is it just because the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan is fascinating?
Or is this where their roots lie?
Tang Qingqing's eyes lit up again. Xiao Ding was indeed Xiao Ding. It seemed that the word despair would never be in his heart. He could find a way out of any seemingly dead end road that others could not think of. When he walked out, there would be a bright future. .
Tang Qingqing glanced secretly with the corner of her eyes, and she found that Ye Rongqiu's eyes also lit up. Ye Rongqiu also happened to look towards her, and the two of them smiled knowingly.
At noon, after discussing with everyone, Tang Xiaotian decided to return to Shuzhong first.
The ashes of the thirteen escorts from the Evergreen Escort Bureau were packed together. He wanted to go back as soon as possible. At least he had to make a tomb for these brothers and perform a ritual to transcend the dead.
The escort property was robbed, and although Wujiu Villa has disappeared, Evergreen Escort Bureau no longer needs to compensate. Although it seems that the loss is not big, it is actually difficult to make a comeback.
The people who participated in the escort this time were all the backbone elites of the Evergreen Escort Agency. All thirteen escorts died, and four of them were the former chief escorts of the Eighth Escort Bureau. After this battle, its foundation was also shaken. In addition, the escort items were robbed, and the reputation of the escort agency was damaged. It was almost impossible to regain strength in a short period of time.
Tang Qingqing had just reunited with her father, but they were about to be separated again. She was extremely reluctant to part with her, and her emotions of parting were overwhelming.
