Chapter 466: Fighting Poison with Poison
Since the "jade theft" incident, because the entire Yuyin Villa has been panicked and chaotic, the Jade Pavilion has also been closed for several days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It wasn't until Feng Wuji returned the slightly damaged piece of "Blue Blood Tianshan Glazed Jade" to its original owner in the posture of a winner, in order to block the mouths of the people who had different opinions, that he reopened the door to welcome guests as usual.
Of course, in the eyes of the entire villa, a piece of jade that had been mutilated suddenly reappeared like a charity and miraculously, which was obviously a greater shame than the theft of the jade in the first place.
In the eyes of outsiders, Yuyin Villa, which was originally heavily guarded and claimed to have no return, has become a casual place where you can come and go when you want.
Everyone will only think that Feng Wuji Dao is a foot taller, and they will question the reputation of Yuyin Villa for many years in the rivers and lakes.
However, at the time of the incident, Cheng Jinzhi was in a deep coma, and naturally had no idea about this matter, let alone that the reason why he could regain his life was because of this priceless treasure that set off a lot of wind and waves.
Even the Jade Pavilion in front of her, with the sound of the piano, appeared in her memory for the first time.
Entering the Jade Pavilion, a sense of déjà vu suddenly flashed through my mind, looking at the piano platform not far away and the intoxicated expressions of the guests listening to music and enjoying the music.
This elegant atmosphere of playing the drum and piano makes Cheng Jinzhi, who thinks he has set foot here for the first time in his life, very fresh.
After being taken to the corresponding seat by the waiter in charge of picking up the guests, he ordered a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks, ready to savor them.
Although she didn't know that the pipa music played on the stage at this time was the well-known "Spring and White Snow".
Because Cheng Jinzhi had been to Shuyu Pavilion several times before, one of them was a big fuss because of Xu Ruyan, and her dress today was so conspicuous, in fact, as soon as she got started, she attracted the attention of this pawn.
Although he was polite to Cheng Jinzhi on the surface, as soon as he sat down, he quickly ran up to the second floor and informed Li Liang, who was temporarily in charge of the Jade Pavilion by Xu Ruyan.
Because at the beginning of the theft of jade, it was precisely because the drawing of the organ about the ancestral hall was missing, and Xu Ruyan, who was the custodian of this thing, must bear the brunt.
Although she has not been convicted at this time, she has been imprisoned in Yuyin Villa in Youzhou these days, and her situation is precarious.
Moreover, because of the return of the jade, the reputation of Yuyin Villa was greatly damaged, and under the anger of the owner Nanxiang, Xu Ruyan even had to pay for it.
Li Liang has been in love with Xu Ruyan for a long time, and he has always hated Gao Heng in his heart, and he firmly believes that the disappearance of the organ drawings is Gao Heng's use of rhetoric to deceive Xu Ruyan.
Now that he heard that his favorite princess had arrived at the Jade Pavilion alone, he really didn't want to let go of this excellent opportunity to vent his hatred for Xu Ruyan.
For these Jianghu people who are outside the law, killing someone is just a matter of raising and falling with a knife.
Even if it is to kill a royal relative with a special status.
However, Cheng Jinzhi didn't expect that he was just passing by by accidentally, and he could even cause a fatal disaster, and he was listening to famous songs and drinking tea leisurely at the moment.
Until the killer sent by Li Liang had already walked in front of her with a fierce look, she did not perceive the imminent crisis in the slightest.
And the reason why Li Liang didn't take such a relatively simple method as poisoning the tea was, of course, because he was worried that if Cheng Jinzhi was poisoned to death on his own territory, it would obviously make everyone think that it was done by someone in the Jade Pavilion.
In this way, spreading the word not only damages the reputation of the Jade Pavilion, but also because of the fear of Gao Heng, who is on the throne.
But if only one of the guests kills someone, the risk and responsibility are naturally much smaller than that of the Jade Pavilion.
Seeing that the dagger hidden in his sleeve had jumped into his hand, he was about to stab towards Cheng Jinzhi in the next second......
Suddenly, I heard a lot of commotion outside, and the originally touching music came to an abrupt end.
Immediately afterward, several voices were heard shouting in terror.
"Someone, it's on fire, it's on fire, it's on fire!"
Disturbed by the sudden momentum, the elegant and beautiful atmosphere was immediately destroyed, and the guests were full of complaints, and they got up from their seats and walked outside the door to find out.
In the face of such an unpredictable change, out of prudence, the killer had no choice but to stop first and hide the dagger in his sleeve again.
Seeing that everyone was rushing out of the door, smelling the smell of burnt smell wafting away, Cheng Jinzhi also put down the tea cup in his hand when he saw this, and got into the crowd with the mentality of watching the excitement.
Only then did I find that a small teahouse not far away had caught fire, and at this moment it was already in flames, and thick smoke was billowing out, which showed that the fire had reached a point where it was difficult to control.
Although several residents living in the surrounding area have spontaneously rushed to fight the fire, due to the dry weather, just these few people holding pots and pots and splashing water back and forth are really a drop in the bucket.
"My child is still in it, my child!"
At this time, I saw a young woman who had just been rescued from the fire by two men was crying silently, trying to break free from the restraints and rush back into the fire.
"Fire... Fire ......"
In the face of this imminent fire, Cheng Jinzhi stood in place in a daze, the blazing fire reflected in her constantly tightening pupils.
At the same time, the fragments of the fire in the depths of her memory also began to come to her mind, making her unconsciously raise her steps and walk forward as if she was inspired.
It was as if there was a voice in her heart telling her that as long as she approached the sea of fire, she could get the answers she wanted.
Seeing that the fire was getting worse, many people around Cheng Jinzhi also began to run forward to try to put out the fire, so they only regarded her as a lady who wanted to come forward to put out the fire, and didn't think there was anything strange.
"This sister, your child, I'll save it for you!"
It wasn't until Cheng Jinzhi rushed to the woman and said this sentence menacingly that everyone couldn't help but look back and let out a sigh, and they were immediately impressed by her and amazed.
Of course, there are also some people who secretly think in their hearts, just because she is a weak and slender woman, she wants to enter the fire to save people, but she is really overwhelmed and kills herself.
As soon as he heard Cheng Jinzhi's words, one of the men who had just rescued the woman immediately persuaded him.
"Girl, it's very dangerous here, you better not go in, if you can't get out, we have to save ...... then."
However, before the man could finish speaking, he saw Cheng Jinzhi take a deep breath, and his heart was crossed as if he was about to go to the battlefield of nine deaths, and he was "righteous and awe-inspiring" into the sea of fire.
