Chapter 101: Something Happened (Today's Second Update)
On the way back to Suzhou from Quepingling, Mu Chuyu and Pei Yao naturally heard a lot of rumors about the rivers and lakes, among which the most popular one was that the Lishan faction was wiped out overnight, and none of the whole faction survived...... It's just that Zhou Langhe, the leader of the martial arts alliance, has disappeared.
Suzhou is still as lively and prosperous as ever, and the cries of street vendors are endless.
Pei Yao and Mu Chuyu both led their horses and walked on the street.
"Do you think this could be done by Zhou Langhe himself?" Pei Yao frowned.
"I'd rather believe he died somewhere else, or was captured! He didn't have the guts to do such a thing! Mu Chuyu replied with an oath, tilted his head and smiled.
"I also know this...... Pei Yao muttered as she looked ahead smartly, and said the second half of the sentence in her heart: I just want to ask.
Mu Chuyu smiled and didn't have the same knowledge as her.
Suddenly, a teacup fell from the sky and broke flowers on the ground in front of Pei Yao.
"Who?" Mu Chuyu and Pei Yao both looked up impatiently.
Ah Fei and Miao Shu's smiling heartless faces both met their eyes, and they were hooking their fingers at them on the second floor of Yangchun Restaurant.
Pei Yao and Mu Chuyu glanced at each other, bolted the horse to the tethered stone without knowing it, and entered the restaurant.
The delicacies on Ah Fei's table that only have bones left can also give Pei Yao a glimpse of the whole picture - those are all the signature dishes of Yangchun Restaurant: rouge goose breast, Tonghua soft beef intestines, green shrimp rolls, phoenix fetus, etc.
She was itchy in her heart, but she teased disdainfully: "Yo, Ah Fei, I've been very moist lately!" ”
"What's the matter, anyway, you won't let me pay for it myself!" Ah Fei scratched his head, and his eyes glanced at Miaoshu, who was greeting Mu Chuyu to each other.
When Miao Shu sensed Pei Yao's gaze, she immediately put Mu Chuyu aside, and said earnestly: "If Brother Yan likes it, I'll call it again!" ”
After saying that, she raised her hand and beckoned the shopkeeper to come over......
"No, no, I'm full!" Pei Yao hurriedly grabbed her wrist and put it down. She didn't dare to accept the favor of this unruly princess, what if she was asked to sign a deed of sale later? Just from Miao Shu's crisp "Brother Yan" just now, Pei Yao heard a trace of affection, and she felt uncomfortable, thinking that being a female pet was enough for her to bear.
Mu Chuyu stepped forward with a strong eye, separating some of Miao Shu and Pei Yao, and clinging to her side.
"Sister, I'll tell you the right thing! Something happened in the Begonia Pavilion! Ah Fei mysteriously half-covered his mouth and said to Pei Yao.
Pei Yao's nerves tensed and she quickly sat down.
——
"The day before yesterday, Miaoshu and I met a man with a sad face in this Yangchun Restaurant, asking for help, and that man happened to be sitting next to us." Ah Fei put his hands on the table upright, and his head was close to Pei Yao.
Miaoshu was next to Ah Fei, nodding to Pei Yao on the opposite side as if pounding garlic.
Mu Chuyu and Pei Yao sat on the same side and listened attentively.
"And you're going to approach him?" Pei Yao's eyes fluttered, and she asked with some scruples.
Ah Fei didn't say anything to Miaoshu, but he still wouldn't deceive her about the trivial things that he thought were insignificant, such as the process of receiving task orders in Haitang Pavilion...... But Pei Yao is different, she is more cautious about the affairs of Haitang Pavilion. And she clearly knew that Mu Chuyu beside her had always been curious about Haitang Pavilion and even had ulterior motives, so it was inevitable that she would not have a trace of instinctive worry.
"No, Jiajia of the red begonia took the lead, I didn't catch it!" Ah Fei pursed his lips, slightly disappointed.
After that, he wanted to continue, after all, he hadn't gotten to the point yet, but he saw Pei Yao's expression that seemed a little unnatural.
Mu Chuyu had already learned some news from Pei Yao's tone and Ah Fei's answer: it turned out that the mysterious Begonia Pavilion was not all personally approached by the client to entrust the task, but more often the Begonia Pavilion sent disciples out to fish for bait.
Pei Yao tilted her head and squinted at him, and his gaze immediately became obedient and obedient.
"What a pity! And what about later? Pei Yao turned her head and asked carefully, no longer bothering about Mu Chuyu's careful thoughts, anyway, she decided that he would not be able to escape from his Five Finger Mountain no matter what.
"Later, the man took out an agarwood begonia and ordered ......" Ah Fei said with a serious expression.
The seventh block! Pei Yao exclaimed in her heart.
"Recently, the number of appearances of the Agarwood Begonia Order is too frequent!" Mu Chuyu couldn't help but sigh.
"Is this still the task of a piece of agarwood begonia order? You're really at a loss! Pei Yaopi teased Ah Fei with a smile, "What kind of task is that?" Who's on a mission? Do you know this? ”
"It's here!" Ah Fei stretched out his index finger and tapped on the table, his tone becoming more and more mysterious and heavy.
"What the hell is going on? I'm okay with it! Miao Shu moved the bench under her ass and approached Ah Fei's side, "Now in front of Brother Yan and Brother Mu, you are finally going to speak!" ”
She flew away from the eyebrows in front of her, and was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth as if she was picking up a big bargain.
The sense of mystery created by Ah Fei finally put Pei Yao and Mu Chuyu into a good situation, but he didn't expect to ignore the troublesome little fox next to him.
He pretended to clear his throat and continued to Pei Yao and Mu Chuyu, who were already speechless: "Jiajia took the man back to the Begonia Pavilion, and the Pavilion Master personally met him in Gongsexuan, and he presented the Begonia Order with both hands...... It's a pity that it was a fake agarwood begonia order! ”
"How do you know?" Pei Yao looked at Ah Fei vigilantly, and her body moved closer to Mu Chuyu imperceptibly.
Ah Fei frowned and said as a matter of course: "I said that something big happened in the Begonia Pavilion, and everyone in our house knows about it!" ”
"Oh-" Pei Yao straightened her posture again, and took a sip from the teacup without a trace.
"The pavilion master took the token and gently rubbed it twice before he noticed that something was wrong! He asked the man straight where the token came from. and informed him that the token was fake, and that Begonia Pavilion would not accept his task. I thought he would be sad and begged bitterly, but he only remorsefully took back the token, and he didn't know who gave him this thing! In desperation, the pavilion master waved his hand and sent Jiajia to send him out of the Begonia Pavilion......"
"What's next?" Mu Chuyu is still unfinished.
"Less than an hour after the man left the incense, the pavilion master felt that the hand that touched the token was itchy and unbearable, and he only then reacted that he had been poisoned, and immediately cut off his left wrist!"
Pei Yao and Miao Shu automatically made up for this bloody scene, and couldn't help but shake their heads twice.
"At the same time, he urgently summoned Hall Master Duan and Hall Master Shen to the Begonia Main Hall, ordered to quickly arrest the man who sent the token, and ordered Hall Master Duan to go to the deep water abyss to think about it behind closed doors as a punishment!"
"Abyss?" Mu Chuyu was puzzled.
"The Abyss is a terrible place! On the surface, our pavilion master said that he was 'thinking behind closed doors', but in fact, he asked Duan Liling to suffer and take responsibility for the mistakes of her subordinates! I've heard that the torture in it is as good as the one in your imperial prison! Pei Yao explained, her heart began to be mixed, happy that Ah Fei didn't pick up the hot potato, otherwise she would be the one who was imprisoned in the deep water abyss now, and the worry was that she didn't know what kind of punishment Duan Liling would receive in the deep water abyss...... You must know that the three major hall masters have never had a precedent for entering the deep water abyss, and those who enter are often just small minion disciples! Now that Mu Haitang sent Duan Liling in, it is not clear whether it is because of his anger or because of some other things...... Pei Yao felt creepy when she thought about it, Mu Haitang's hand might reach her one day......
