For two days in a row, guests in Ziyanxuan were poisoned and died one after another. Everyone's fear grew day by day. Whenever someone wanted to rush out, they were all kidnapped by the yellow-clad guards who were like loyal dogs. Originally singing and dancing The place of my life instantly turned into a hell on earth.
"What kind of wine is this? Does it taste like anything in your mouth?" A burly man with a stubble on his face was half lying in the Zhuyan Hall, surrounded by four maids in underskirts, two of them were squeezing his shoulders. Beating his legs, the other two were gently fanning them, one on the left and one on the right.
"Your Majesty! This is the finest chalcedony wine in Xuanzhong. It is delicious and mellow. It is the best in the world." The maid in a skirt on the left, fanning a fan, handled it carefully.
"The best in the world?" After hearing the explanation, the burly man suddenly became furious and pushed the maid in the undershirt to the ground who replied: "In my opinion, not only are you drunk, but your beauty is also unsightly."
"Hey! Who made our Mr. Tianhao lose such a temper?" This burly man was Zuo Tianhao who was lurking in the Xuanzhong, and the shopkeeper Mu Hanlei also walked in at the right time.
"Han Lei! Look what kind of wine is this?" Zuo Tianhao was still angry, and the maid in the undershirt who fell to the ground with a wronged face said angrily: "How dare a slave of this beauty come out to serve guests?"
"I thought it was some big deal that made the young master lose his temper, but it turned out to be just such a trivial matter; why not let Han Lei personally serve the young master?" Mu Hanlei's nails covered with red rouge gently rested on her left Over Tianhao's shoulder, he winked at the maids in undershirts: "You guys go down first and replace this wine with the finest Chunxiao Brewing."
"Yes! Shopkeeper." Upon hearing Mu Hanlei's instructions, the four maids in undershirts who had fallen to the ground immediately exited the hall as if they had been granted amnesty.
"Tianhao, are those two old guys making you angry again?" Mu Hanlei gently squeezed Zuo Tianhao's shoulders.
"Hmph! These two old immortals, just because they are the people invited by the Lord, they don't take me seriously!" After Mu Hanlei's manipulation, Zuo Tianhao's angry face cleared up. A little bit, but the tone was very stiff: "It's been these days. We've served you with good wine and delicious food every day, and even sent the most beautiful slaves in the palace, but what we want is still not available."
"Don't be angry!" Mu Hanlei advised thoughtfully: "This thing is very difficult to do, and it will take some time. Besides, Lu Yin has already obtained it. As soon as he gets the thing, he will leave the cabinet immediately."
"Hanlei, you still know how to do things." Zuo Tianhao gently stroked Mu Hanlei's cheek with his huge palm, showing a rare smile: "The matter of buying a road guide from Zhao Fei will not arouse the suspicion of Sun. Bar."
"Don't worry!" Mu Hanlei smiled confidently: "I only told my boss to buy some roads for emergencies, and he didn't have any suspicion."
"It seems that the man named Sun has a lot of trust in you. Not only did he leave the entire Ziyan Pavilion to you, but he also obeyed your words." Zuo Tianhao seemed to be quite satisfied with Mu Hanlei.
"Sun Zhujin is just a businessman. He can't be as ambitious as our Mr. Tianhao." Mu Hanlei's charming voice made Zuo Tianhao tremble.
"Hahaha! Hanlei still understands me." Zuo Tianhao, who was still angry just now, was teased by Mu Hanlei and felt comfortable: "By the way! Xuanzang seems to be uneasy recently. Since that old man Lu Xingyun sealed the pavilion, Not very peaceful!"
"Tianhao, is this what happened?" Mu Hanlei whispered into Zuo Tianhao's ear.
"Oh? Is this happening?" Zuo Tianhao's expression changed: "First, our work was completely lost overnight, and now even the pure land of Ziyanxuan is stained with the smell of blood. It's really interesting; Lu Xingyun, it seems It tastes great.”
"It's not good, shopkeeper!" Just as Zuo Tianhao and Mu Hanlei were eyeing each other, a maid in an undergarment skirt ran in in a panic.
"How is it appropriate to be so flustered?" Mu Hanlei was startled by the sudden shout, and quickly distanced herself from Zuo Tianhao before scolding her maid.
"The shopkeeper's, ours..." The maid in a skirt walked up to Mu Hanlei and whispered.
"Are you telling the truth?" Mu Hanlei, who had been so charming just now, suddenly became extremely ugly after hearing a few words from the maid in the undershirt.
"It's absolutely true." The maid in underwear whispered: "Qiao'er and Ya'er are placed in the bedroom. The shopkeeper can go and take a look."
"Hmph! Don't look any further, find a few people to take them to Xiaoyao Hall!" Mu Hanlei was trembling with anger, and she no longer had the previous interest.
"Yes! Shopkeeper!" The maid in the undershirt quickly exited after receiving the instructions. Mu Hanlei also stood up: "Tianhao, I'll be back as soon as I go."
"Yeah! Go ahead." Zuo Tianhao nodded.
In the Ziyanxuan Xiaoyao Hall, there are no decorations or anyone waiting in the huge hall. There is only a rosewood table and a futon.
The face of the man on the futon was completely covered by a black scarf. On his open right palm was a bright yellow scorpion supported by a pair of pincers, with its tail tilted up and swinging slightly from side to side, looking like it was in the arms of a beauty. Pipa is very beautiful.
The masked man kept touching and teasing the scorpion with his left hand. If an outsider saw this, they would definitely feel disgusted, but he enjoyed it.
"Bang!" The man was in high spirits when the door of Xiaoyao Hall was kicked open without warning, and Mu Hanlei stormed in aggressively with several maids in undershirts.
"Master, you are so unreasonable?" The masked man saw that the scorpion in his palm was frightened and curled up into a ball, and he couldn't help feeling slightly angry.
"Bring Qiao'er and Ya'er up and let him have a look." Mu Hanlei waved to the maids behind her, and the four maids in undershirts each supported Qiao'er and Ya'er and came to the face of the masked man.
"Scorpion, can you see clearly?" Mu Hanlei pointed at the two maids: "How did you agree to your employer back then, and why do you break the contract now?"
"Huh? These two women seem to have been poisoned?" The masked man put the scorpions back into his sleeves, slowly stood up and walked towards the two maids who were being supported to take a closer look.
"Pretending?" Mu Hanlei saw that the masked man was actually pretending, and the anger in her heart could not be suppressed: "Dark spots appear on the skin, and the whole person is weak. If not, what is your scorpion venom? Why don't you get the antidote?"
"Shut up!" The masked man's eyes suddenly revealed a cold light, which made Mu Hanlei's hair stand on end: "Idiot! If I had poisoned them, these two women would have met the King of Hell long ago!"
"Besides you, who else dares to act recklessly in this Ziyan Pavilion?" Mu Hanlei calmed down and asked before going out.
"Short-sighted, it's only a matter of time before you underestimate the world's masters and suffer losses." The masked man seemed to have exhausted his patience and no longer bothered to talk nonsense to Mu Hanlei: "They are not poisoned by scorpion poison, they just look very similar."
"It's very similar?" Mu Hanlei turned around and looked at the poisoned maidservant in undershirt, but she still couldn't see anything different.
"How is it? Did you gain anything?" In the Guanlan Hall, Tong Bo, who was meditating with his eyes closed, moved his ears slightly, and he knew that Liu Ningshi was back.
"Ningshi has been keeping a close eye on Mu Hanlei for the past two days and found that she went to Zhuyan Hall several times. Just now she angrily took two poisoned maids to Xiaoyao Hall." Liu Ningshi gently closed the door and came to Opposite Tong Bo.
"Zhuyan Hall, Xiaoyao Hall?" Tong Bo thought about the location of the second hall in his mind: "If I remember correctly, the second hall is the southeast corner and northwest corner of the fourth floor! Can you find out who lives in it? "
"Is it strange that it's not easy to get close to these two halls?" Liu Ningshi shook her head: "There were maids from the pavilion walking back and forth outside the Zhuyan Hall, and their steps were light and their eyes were lively. At first glance, You know what you are good at, but Xiaoyao Hall is just the opposite. Although there is no one guarding it, there seems to be an invisible barrier. No matter how close you look, you can never get to the door."
"Hey! It's quite interesting!" Tong Bo smiled and asked: "Then according to what the girl saw, is Zuo Tianhao hiding in one of the rooms?"
"Yes! According to Zuo Tianhao's arrogant character, he shouldn't be hiding in a secret room." Liu Ningshi imitated Tong Bo's tone and said seriously: "As long as conditions permit, he will definitely find a luxurious place to enjoy himself."
"Girl, do you really dare to say that?" Tong Bo suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Liu Ningshi: "But if you have to choose one of the two halls, that would be..."
"The Zhuyan Hall!" Before Tong Bo finished speaking, Liu Ningshi blurted out: "Then what should we do? Should we rush directly into the hall?"
"Girl, are you joking again?" Tong Bo listened to Liu Ningshi's slightly teasing words, his eyes full of helplessness: "There are so many beautiful girls guarding Nasi's door, how can I not bear it? Otherwise, leave it all to the girl. ?”
"No!" Liu Ningshi blinked her eyes like autumn water and smiled: "I want to stay and take care of Miss Yanran. If Brother Xiangyun is left here alone, something unexpected may happen."
"Who does the girl think I am?" Tong Bo covered his face and shook his head: "It seems like I can only go by myself."
"Brother Xiangyun, is this really okay?" Liu Ningshi saw Tong Bo standing up and became worried again for some reason.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the cub." Whenever Tong Bo makes up his mind to do something, his eyes are always extremely firm: "Besides, there are many forces in Xuanzhong, and I don't want to rush ahead. .”
"But Brother Xiangyun has never been able to recover his internal strength. How will he protect himself if he encounters danger?" Liu Ningshi expressed her concerns: "Let me go."
"Force is just the last resort when there is nothing to do." Tong Bo smiled and said: "If you can solve the problem with strategy, why use force? Remember what you need to do, girl, now time is like an inch of gold. generally."
In the guard room on the lowest floor of Ziyan Pavilion, several guards took off their common clothes, put them on in a hurry, and hung their swords on their waists.
"Hurry up, Pavilion Master needs manpower everywhere, why are you waiting so long?" a guard leader in yellow shouted loudly.
"Boss, please spare us." A guard who had just changed his clothes yawned and begged: "Brothers just closed their eyes, and less than an hour later, they were called up again. If this continues, people will die. .”
"Dead people?" the guard leader said coldly: "If you keep nagging, believe it or not, you will become dead people now."
"Unfair? Then why don't the two of them go to the pavilion to perform their tasks?" Another guard shouted dissatisfied when he saw two black-clothed and masked guards resting aside.
"Those two are the direct guards of Manager Zhang and do not need to participate in the Pavilion Master's mission." The guard leader kicked the complaining guard in the butt: "Why don't you go and perform the mission."
"Yes, yes, I realize my mistake in my humble position, so go ahead." Hearing what the leader said, several guards did not dare to say any more and ran out of the pavilion in a hurry.
"My men are being unreasonable and I made you both laugh." After the guards left, the leader of the guards smiled and hugged his fists at the two guards in black.
"It's easy to talk!" One of the black-clothed guards also bowed back to the guard leader, while the other black-clothed guard looked as cold as ice from beginning to end.
