"Who sent you here?" Tong Bo's palms slowly formed into fists, and the black ribbon tightened around the two bodies in black: "Did you inflict Master Sha's poison?"
"Young Master, Young Master? Does the poison in this guest officer have nothing to do with us?" The two men in black felt that their bodies were bound by invisible ropes, and they screamed in pain.
"Oh? It doesn't matter?" Tong Bo sneered: "He broke into someone else's room without any reason and said that this poison has nothing to do with you. Do you think I am stupid?"
"Young Master, it really has nothing to do with us!" The sweat on the foreheads of the two men in black slowly seeped out and fell on the ground drop by drop: "We are just Xiao Xiaoxiao. We saw that the guest officer in this room drank too much. Then I sneaked into the house to get something.”
"Oh? Get something?" Tong Bo seemed to be very interested: "How many things did you get? Take it out and take a look."
"Everything is in the villain's clothes. Please let me go. I will take out the things and give them to you." The man in black, who had no knife in his hand, took the opportunity to beg for mercy.
"Hmph! I know how to take it myself." Tong Bo also followed the example of the man in black taking his silver, and put his hand into the man in black's arms.
"Huh? There are actually 80,000 taels?" Tong Bo held a thick stack of silver in his hand and couldn't help but stare: "In addition to the 10,000 taels that were taken away from me just now, there are actually as many as 70,000 taels?"
"Hurry up." The man in black holding the dagger felt his body gradually loosen up. He shouted and broke free from the black ribbon, throwing the dagger towards Tong Bo.
The dagger flew straight towards him with a strong gust of wind. Tong Bo didn't think too much and quickly lowered his head to dodge. When the other man in black supported him and relaxed, he also broke free from the black ribbon. The two of them moved toward Liu Ningshi. rushed in the direction.
"Miss Liu, be careful." Tong Bo saw the two running away and he was no longer in a hurry to catch up, so he had to shout loudly.
With her eyes slightly closed, Liu Ningshi, who was expelling poison and healing Salba's wounds, heard Tong Bo's shout. Her heart was filled with happiness, and her thoughts moved with her heart. She quickly grasped the dragon-shaped dagger with her lowered left palm and swung it horizontally.
A ray of blue energy struck at the man in black who was charging towards him. Unexpectedly, the feet of the two men in black were extremely slippery. One of them knelt on his knees and used the power of running to slide under the energy, causing the other to slip. He kicked off his right foot and crossed over from above Jin Qi.
"Miss Liu, stop them quickly." Tong Bo watched the two people passing by Liu Ningshi and understood that they did not want to harm Salba, but wanted to escape.
Although Liu Ningshi did not open her eyes, she could clearly see the figures of the two men in black in her mind with her strong sense of perception; she could see her left palm shining with blue light, and the dragon-shaped dagger in her hand. It quickly stretched out and turned into a Kanlong sword. Two water pillars split from the sword body and circled around the two of them.
"Brother, hurry up!" The man in black who was the first to break away from the spell ignored the water column coming from behind and slapped the wall on the right side of the wooden bed with his palm without thinking about his safety.
"Boom!" A secret door opened instantly, and another man in black rushed to the door without stopping. However, he did not enter immediately. Instead, he hooked the back of the chair with his toes and threw it towards the incoming water column.
"Bang!" The hard ebony chair was crushed to pieces by the two jets of water, and the two men in black took this opportunity to enter the secret door.
"Tch! A young person? Only a devil would believe it." Tong Bo complained secretly but at the same time, his feet were not idle. He came to the secret door in just one breath, stretched out his left palm and pressed it on the wall that the man in black had just slapped. .
"Boom!" As Tong Bo exerted force with his left palm, the closed secret door opened again, but what he saw was not an exit, but a solid wall.
"Wonderful, it's so wonderful." Tong Bo raised his left palm, and the secret door slowly closed: "Even if you find the secret door, you can't enter. This design is really wonderful."
"Who am I?" Liu Ningshi opened her eyes, withdrew her right palm from Salba's back, and looked blankly at the Kanlong Sword she held in her left hand, with a confused look on her face.
"Miss Ning'er, didn't you notice someone sneaking into the house?" Tong Bo also didn't understand how Liu Ningshi's perception ability could not detect these two men in black.
"Ning'er just entered the house and saw Master Sha's skin covered with black spots, and he fainted on the couch, so she tried to use her internal power to drive away the poison and heal his injuries." Liu Ningshi shook her head: "As for what happened after that, I have no feeling at all. .”
"Although you can't be distracted when healing someone's injuries, you won't be ignorant of the surrounding situation. Besides, Miss Liu's perception is different from ordinary people." Tong Bo was suspicious and carefully observed the room: " Huh? That is?"
"Why is there an incense burner on this table?" Tong Bo's eyes lit up, and he walked to the table where he and Salba had been drinking. He picked up a pinch of incense ashes from the incense burner with his thumb and index finger and put it under his nose to smell it. , then looked at the two maids in undershirts who were still lying unconscious by the couch, and said secretly: "When I went out earlier, there was no incense burner on the table. In this case..."
"Xiang..." Liu Ningshi was about to shout out, but suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly changed her words: "Young Master Wang, are you afraid that Master Sha will die?"
"The signs of poisoning are the same as those of the guests on the first floor." Tong Bo came to Salba's side again and pressed his right palm on Salba's heart.
"Hey!" Tong Bo sighed and retracted his right palm, took out a white pill from his arms and put it into his mouth: "Although there is no way to save him, at least he can walk a little more comfortably."
"Who is so vicious?" Although Liu Ningshi had never had a good impression of Salba, seeing his miserable condition after being poisoned, she couldn't help but sigh.
"There is no way to deduce it yet." Tong Bo stared at the two unconscious maids in undershirts and winked at Liu Ningshi, then walked to her side and lowered his voice: "But one thing is for sure, the person who poisoned will definitely lurk. Somewhere in Xuanzhong.”
"Why is brother Xiangyun so sure?" Liu Ningshi saw Tong Bo's eyes and became wary of the two unconscious maidservants in undershirts, and asked in a lowered voice.
"Just now, several guests on the first floor were poisoned by the same poison as Salba." Tong Bo told Liu Ningshi what happened on the first floor: "I'm afraid not even a fly can fly out of the building now."
"Killing someone without permission is not allowed in the pavilion. So there are already people in charge..." Liu Ningshi also realized the seriousness of the matter.
"That's right!" Tong Bo nodded: "It was Manager Pei who was carrying the giant sword and surrounded Ziyanxuan."
"Is he Junchen's nephew?" Salba woke up after taking the life-sustaining pill, looked at Tong Bo's figure in confusion, and asked.
"Uncle Sha, it's my nephew!" Tong Bo heard the cry and walked to the couch quickly: "Uncle, are you feeling better?"
"Ahem!" Salba struggled to sit up, coughing uncontrollably in his throat, and said feebly: "My handsome nephew, I'm afraid he will die..."
"Hey!" Tong Bo sighed softly: "Whatever my uncle has to say, as long as my nephew is within his ability, he will definitely do it."
"Ahem!" Although the life-sustaining pills made Salba wake up, the poison still couldn't spread. Within a few breaths of the two talking, his body was covered with black spots; but he pulled himself together and said: "Uncle, there are A young son was kidnapped by gangsters. I hope that my nephew will help my uncle rescue An'er for the sake of the good relationship between you and my family."
"I wonder if this person is dressed in white, with a bleak face and strange movements?" Tong Bo thought of the previous description of the Jade Rabbit and the people Liu Ningshi met in the secret passage, and he was very sure: "Uncle, please don't worry. , since Junchen has promised before, he will naturally not break his promise; and Junchen will also take care of uncle's family members in the future."
"You, how did you know?" Salba, who seemed to be dying, suddenly opened his eyes in surprise and stared at Tong Bo thoughtfully: "Who are you?"
"Have you forgotten that Junchen followed his uncle to Shichengtou that night, and then entered Ziyan Pavilion?" Tong Bo's ugly face was so graceful at this moment.
"It's actually you?" Salba knew that Tong Bo's disguise technique was extremely sophisticated, and he quickly regained his composure after being surprised.
"Uncle should understand the purpose of Junchen coming here." Tong Bo bowed to the man who was leaning on the couch: "I hope your uncle will tell you."
"Hey! The person you are looking for is in this pavilion, but I don't know exactly where it is!" Salba sighed softly, showing a complicated expression: "Sometimes I wonder how I ended up cooperating with him. Right or wrong!”
Tong Bo suddenly walked to the couch and whispered something to Salba, but he could only hear Salba's expression being uncertain.
"How's it going? I wonder if Jun Chen's conclusion is right?" After a cup of tea, Tong Bo stood up straight again and looked at Salba quietly: "That day, my uncle went to the backyard of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development to take some food. This thing."
"If Yu Wu and Qian Zhuqing hadn't died tragically one after another, why would I have taken the risk myself and come here." Salba became emotional and coughed up a mouthful of blood: "Now I really regret it."
"It turns out that what Qian Zhuqing and Yu Wu planned was actually related to Salpa." Tong Bo turned around and glanced at each other with Liu Ningshi, thinking: "This explanation makes sense."
"Uncle, please forgive Junchen for speaking frankly! You are the left minister of the household department, which is a height that many people cannot reach in their lifetime, so why do you need to do such a dangerous thing." Tong Bo said seriously.
"Hahaha! Do you want to be the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs?" After hearing Tong Bo's words, Salba's gradually weakened voice immediately became louder: "I promoted myself as a filial and honest person so that I can serve in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Later, I experienced the rebellion of the princes of Shu, In the past 20 years, I have been working hard to allocate money and food for the state of Qi, such as the great disaster in Lu. It can be said that I have done a lot of hard work, but what have I gained? Five years ago, Li Chongde was appointed as the Minister of Household Affairs because of favors in the court. position; now that Li Chongde has been dismissed and imprisoned, it is my turn in terms of merit and qualifications, but His Majesty gave the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue to a businessman, which is really a shame in the world."
"Uncle Sha, Ning'er doesn't understand officialdom." Liu Ningshi, who had been listening quietly behind Tong Bo, suddenly said, "But Ning'er knows that only by being content can you always be happy."
