Chapter 41: The Undercurrent of Murder

Meng Dachuan gently removed the azure pot on the red sandalwood tray, put it on the four-legged kang table, and respectfully left the table and retreated.

Jiang Boyu, who had been smiling from beginning to end, got up and invited the two to take a seat, and introduced the young man in white and black scarf to the two, and then sat back on his light brown four-year-old official hat chair.

Ye Chenfeng only knew that the young man with a grim face was actually the leader of an organization called Dikuimen that was spontaneously formed by the Tianyun students.

This person's name is Du Feng, in his early years, he was a student of the Instrument Pavilion, and later after his strength was refined, he went to the second layer of Xiao Sumeru Mountain and founded the Dikui Gate, and his strength also reached the level of the Heavenly King.

Ji Ziyue was not surprised by the identity of this young man, obviously she had heard of it a long time ago.

After some polite words, Jiang Baoyu hurriedly picked up the pot and tilted it slightly, and there was a pour of sake into the cup.

He picked up the wine glass and slowly handed it to Ye Chenfeng, with everyone's demeanor in every move.

Gently taking the wine glass, Ye Chenfeng did not drink it directly into his stomach, but glanced at the wine in the glass with a slight hesitation.

Seeing this, Jiang Boyu laughed, poured another glass of wine, drank it all, and then showed Ye Chenfeng the white background in the cup, signaled the five poisons in the wine, and then said: "This cup of wine, Jiang Moujing is magnanimous to the little brother, I hope you can ignore the past suspicions, and Meng Dachuan will turn the fight into a jade silk." ”

Although Ye Chenfeng still had doubts in his heart, he still drank all the wine in the cup and walked through the scene.

Jiang Boyu smiled heartily, and after handing Ji Ziyue another glass of wine, he drank another glass to himself, and said with a smile: "This cup, Jiang will respect Ziyue again and be able to appreciate her face and go to the banquet, so as not to lose Jiang's face." ”

Ji Ziyue snorted coldly, covered her face lightly, and slowly drank the wine in the cup, and suddenly a touch of blush appeared in her cheeks, which was more intoxicating than the wine in the cup.

I never thought that she was so arrogant on weekdays, but when she really came to the formal banquet, she actually had the demeanor of everyone's ladies.

Jiang Boyu bowed her head lightly in satisfaction, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was sincere and approachable.

Subsequently, the banquet with a somewhat cold atmosphere went on like this.

During the banquet, Jiang Boyu intentionally or unintentionally inquired about the relationship between the two who went to the banquet.

However, without waiting for Ye Chenfeng to explain, Ji Ziyue directly rushed to reply that Ye Chenfeng was his newly acquired little brother, and then raised his pink fist and made a threatening appearance.

There is no sense of oppression in this kind of calf protection, and there is even a sense of cuteness.

Ye Chenfeng had already climbed a few black lines on his head, but Ji Ziyue, the "initiator" of all this, still didn't know it.

The smile on Jiang Baoyu's face remained unchanged, and he repeatedly called himself and Ye Chenfeng both Qi Pavilion students, and they could really be regarded as brothers in the same sect, and they would only help each other in the future, and it was impossible for them to kill each other.

At this time, Du Feng, who had been silent, suddenly stopped, and then slowly spoke: "Brother Chenfeng has such strength at such an age, he is really young and promising. It's just that I don't know if Brother Chenfeng has ever heard of the name of the 'Three Ghosts of the Dikui'?"

Jiang Boyu knew that the show was about to start, so he turned his head to look at Ye Chenfeng for a while.

Ji Ziyue sighed in her heart, knowing that what she should come was going to come after all, and she could only look at Ye Chenfeng at the moment, and there was a faint glow in her beautiful eyes, as if she was secretly conveying some obscure information.

Ye Chenfeng took in the subtle changes on the faces of the three of them, and immediately his complexion remained unchanged, and he slowly spoke: "I have heard the prestige of your sect for a long time, but I never knew that your sect had the existence of the three ghosts. ”

There was a cold light in Du Feng's eyes, and he said without being salty or indifferent: "The three ghosts of the Dikui I sent have also come to the Yanjing vein to mine ore recently.

It is rumored that the mining area that the three people I sent to be arranged by Meng Supervisor to enter is the same as the mining area that the Chenfeng brothers entered later.

It's just that only Brother Chenfeng came out unharmed today, but the three of us were missing, how should Brother Chenfeng explain?"

Ye Chenfeng pretended to be surprised: "There are such strange things? ”

Du Feng snorted coldly, and his eyes were already cold: "The facts are here, no matter how much you bother to quibble, it's just in vain! Supervisor Meng, if you don't come out at this time, when will you wait?"

After speaking, Meng Dachuan, who had retreated, stepped forward quickly, respectfully handed over a dark yellow booklet, and smiled flatteringly, extremely flattering.

"Master Dumen, this is the list of students who have entered and exited the mining below, which details the mining areas selected by all the students in the near future, as well as the amount of Yanjing ore they have paid. ”

Du Feng hummed lightly, then took the dark yellow roster handed over, unfolded it gently, and saw that in addition to Ye Chenfeng, there were also three ghosts who had recently chosen the No. 15 mining area.

He immediately smiled coldly and threw the roster in his hand to Ye Chenfeng: "What room do you have for defense?"

He took the roster casually, and there was no need to confirm it, Ye Chenfeng just smiled faintly: "Your Excellency still seems to have doubts about the following."

It's just that Your Excellency has ever thought that even if the three ghosts of your faction were really arranged by Supervisor Meng to enter the No. 15 mining area as recorded in the roster, it is not completely certain that the three of them entered the No. 15 mining area.

After all, the mining area of Yanjing vein, which everyone knows to the world, has a lot of oil and water. As long as the trainees spend a little bit of Yanjing ore, they can enter the former No. 9 mining area, and they can also do some tricks on the roster.

In this way, many of the items recorded in the roster need to be examined again.

Moreover, there are no personnel in the mine. Although the three of you were assigned to the No. 15 mining area, if they did not go to the former No. 9 mining area, but to any of the latter No. 6 mining areas, no one would know.

Therefore, how can we be completely sure that they must have entered the No. 15 mining area? I wonder if Supervisor Meng thinks what he said is reasonable?"

After speaking, Ye Chenfeng turned around, smiled slightly, and slowly looked at Meng Dachuan who was standing beside him.

Meng Dachuan broke out in a cold sweat at that time, he wanted to quibble, but what Ye Chenfeng said was something that everyone knew, but he was justified and couldn't speak.

Ji Ziyue's beautiful eyes were bent into a slit, and she almost laughed out loud.

I didn't expect that I, the newly accepted little brother, had a very lively brain, not bad, but I had a bit of the style of this girl.

Jiang Boyu, who was still watching the play, gradually retracted the smile on the corner of his mouth at this time.

This sharp-toothed boy even has a bit of the city, but he underestimated him.

Du Feng, who had just gained the upper hand, gradually became cold on his face, and there was a faint cold killing intent surging in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng pretended not to see anything, and smiled gently: "There is another thing, I don't know if Your Excellency has gone to the No. 15 mining area to investigate, and what clues have you found in the mining area?"

At this moment, Du Feng's face became even more ugly. Ye Chenfeng's last sentence was undoubtedly the last straw that crushed the camel, directly angering him completely.

He couldn't find a trace of evidence in the mining area that could point the finger at Ye Chenfeng, and even if he wanted to frame the latter, it was difficult to find substantial evidence to support his testimony.

The atmosphere instantly became solemn.

At this time, Jiang Boyu, as the host, had to stand up and control the scene.

He persuaded with embarrassment: "Brother Du, this matter should not be rushed, it is better to wait for the Xingge law enforcement team to come over to investigate before making a decision."

I believe that justice is in the hearts of the people, and God will definitely return the three ghosts to your innocence. ”

Ji Ziyue also stood up appropriately at this time, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai: "Yes, the surname is Du, don't be forceful, and blindly impose all the blame on this girl's little brother."

lest some treacherous villains be used as gunmen, but they still look ridiculous in the dark. ”

"You!" Du Feng glared angrily, but because of the identity of the other party, he could only hold back the anger in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that this matter involved Little Brother Chenfeng, this girl would not have come to such a humble house to wade into troubled waters. Ji Ziyue spit out her fragrant tongue and snorted.

"Hehe, what Ziyue said is very true, Brother Du should put this matter aside for the time being, I might as well eat the food on this table first, otherwise it will be too wasteful if the food is cold. Jiang Boyu patted Du Feng's shoulder with a haha, and his eyes quietly signaled.

Du Feng had to snort, with a cold face, and ate the wine and food on the table with his head bored.

Ye Chenfeng glanced at Ji Ziyue with secret praise, then stood up, hugged his fists and said, "I want to thank Senior Brother Jiang for his hospitality today, but I can't drink enough, and it's inconvenient to bother too much, so I have to confess here and leave the banquet first." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Boyu was not forced to stay, so he had to stand up and say: "In this case, little brother, go back and rest, Jiang is inconvenient to send him off, so let Meng Dachuan give you a ride." ”

Then, he looked at Ji Ziyue again, and just wanted to speak, but the latter took the first step and said coldly: "This girl is also going back with Junior Brother Chenfeng, and you don't need to send it off, so don't pass it away." ”

Jiang Boyu smiled gently, there was not the slightest anger on his face, he just called Meng Dachuan to come out and send the two out.

After the two disappeared, the smile on Jiang Boyu's face changed to a cold color.

A subordinate who stands the archway, if this young master doesn't value the forces behind you, what are you?

Behind Jiang Boyu, Du Feng, who had been watching coldly, asked aloud: "Brother Jiang, will you just let that kid go like this?"

Jiang Boyu just smiled coldly: "Brother Du doesn't know, that kid has been poisoned by Jiang's special 'Soul Breaking and Desperate Scattering', and he will definitely die of poison within three hours!"

Hearing this, Du Feng's face was shocked, and he quickly held his breath to check his own situation.

Suddenly, he found that an imperceptible strangeness appeared in his spiritual platform, and his face immediately turned pale, and he pointed at Jiang Boyu in horror and anger: "Brother Jiang, why do you even want me to die?"

Jiang Boyu smiled slightly, and said with good words: "Brother Du doesn't need to panic, this is the antidote pill, and after taking it, the poison in the body can be dissolved." ”

After speaking, he handed Du Feng, who was happy, a dark red pill.

Du Feng hurriedly swallowed the dark red pill, and after finding that a trace of abnormality in his body had disappeared, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell.

He gently wiped the cold sweat on his head and chin and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that Brother Jiang would dare to risk his life in order to convince that kid that the wine is not poisonous, I really admire it." It's just that Ji Ziyue also drank poisonous wine, and if she died, it would be a little troublesome. ”

After Jiang Boyu himself swallowed a detoxification pill, he smiled gently: "Brother Du is too worried, Jiang's special poison is extremely peculiar, it is only useful for male cultivators, and it has no effect on female cultivators. ”

When Du Feng heard this, he suddenly realized, and gave a thumbs up again and again, praising Jiang Boyu for his delicate mind and ability to strategize and win thousands of miles.

Jiang Boyu waved his hand, looking like a humble gentleman.

......

Outside the cave, after Meng Dachuan sent the two away with a smile on his face, he sneered in his heart: "Fool who doesn't know the height of the sky, I hope you can still see the sun tomorrow." ”
