Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Night Rises and Falls

July is the hottest time of the year, and the heat finally fades at night, but even the evening breeze can still feel the stuffy smell inside. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, for the big families, in addition to the fact that it may be inconvenient to go out and suffer some crimes, they don't know the heat in summer, the cold in winter, and the harsh winter in midsummer, which is almost the same for them.

There is also an ice room in the Jin Mansion, but the ice was moved from the Jiyue Pavilion in the summer. Because this ice must be stored underground in the winter and not moved out until the summer, but Su Jin lived in the brocade house in the spring, where would he store the ice.

In fact, everyone is against the use of ice in the brocade house. Du Xiu also delayed the time to transport ice to the Jin Mansion for a while, and deliberately "deducted" the amount of transportation, on the grounds that things in the pavilion were too busy, and he couldn't spare manpower for a while or the amount of ice was not very sufficient, and he needed to control Yunyun, just like Bixi, especially Jing Yu, who was so hot that he was at a loss to go underground, but not to mention the heat, he had to show that he was so comfortable in front of Su Jin! Although Biyue didn't want to pretend to be so indifferent to them, and even complained a few words sometimes, she just didn't mention adding ice to the mansion or anything like that.

In fact, of course Su Jin knew it, she just didn't break it, they were all worried about her body, she had a cold disease, and she almost died in the most serious year. Although it has not recurred for many years, no one knows if it will be induced again, not afraid of ten thousand, they are afraid of what if, they would rather spend it in the unbearable heat by themselves than let Su Jin's body take a little more risk.

But no matter how persistent they are, how can they insist on Su Jin, she promised them that the amount of ice used in their own rooms can be appropriately reduced, but the ice that should be provided in other people's rooms in other mansions should not be less at all. The others had no choice but to agree.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and seeing that the scale of the water leak had gradually been praised when the time was approaching, Qu Ge looked at Su Jin, who was still reading, and said hesitantly, "Girl, it's almost time, you...... It's time to rest! ”

Su Jin looked up at Qu Ge and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'll finish reading it right away, if you're sleepy, go back and rest first, anyway, there are still them outside!" ”

"That's not going to work! How can I leave if you haven't left, if I let Miss Bixi know when, she will definitely not let me go! ”

"What, are you afraid that she will dare to put on your little shoes behind my back?" Su Jin said with a smile.

Qu Ge shook her head, "No, it's not on her back, she dares in front of you!" ”

Su Jinwan'er, it's really like this, Bixi can listen to her in everything, except for issues related to her, sometimes she can only compromise.

In order not to make Qu Ge embarrassed by this, Su Jin quickly finished reading the last few pages, and then left the study and went back to the room.

Qu Ge put the books used by Su Jin on the bookcase and the bookshelf back to their original positions, and called the rough girl in the courtyard outside the room to come in and pour out the melted water in the ice basin containing ice cubes in the corner, and was about to extinguish the candlestick and close the study when he was about to leave, the dark pavilion behind the bookshelf suddenly heard a knock on the door.

At this time, the moment of the water leak had already passed, and at this time, someone came from the dark passage, Qu Ge immediately ordered the people outside to inform Su Jin, and he hurriedly stepped forward to open the door of the dark pavilion, wanting to invite the people behind him into the study first.

"Deputy Chief Du?"

Du Xiu walked out of the dark pavilion quickly, looking a little heavy, "Is the head master resting?" ”

"The head has just left the study for a while, and his subordinates have already asked someone to inform him, and he should be there soon!" Qu Ge replied.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Su Jin and Bi Xi to hurry over, and Jing Yu also followed.

"Brother Du, is there something wrong? Brother Du, what about them? Su Jin asked.

Du Xiu nodded, and said slowly, "We have tried many methods these days, but most of them have been directly killed before they have been implemented, they look ordinary on the outside, but in fact, they are extremely strict, many general methods do not work at all, until yesterday afternoon, a few carriages on the mountain came down to purchase things, and our people finally hid at the bottom of the carriage and blended into the mountain." ”

"I thought that we had successfully inserted our people into the mountain, so we just waited for the news of their investigation, but I didn't expect that this evening, we found the bodies of all our brothers who entered the mountain yesterday in the woods not far from the foot of Lingyue Mountain, and all seven of them survived. And it's all throats that have been cut from behind, and a knife is fatal! What's even more terrifying is that I know best how our brothers are, not to mention those ordinary officers and soldiers, even the strongest Praetorian Guard, they can almost be ten of them, but judging from the current situation of the corpses, they don't even have any traces of resistance! ”

Bi Xi Jingyu was shocked when she heard this.

"Seven people, can you tell that they were all killed at the same time?" Su Jin said with a heavy face.

Du Xiu nodded, "I can be sure!" ”

Jing Yu frowned, "What a terrifying strength it is to be able to solve all our people so effortlessly, without even resisting!" It seems that on that mountain, it is really not simple! Ask yourself, unless it is our core personnel who personally take action, it is our 'undercurrent', and we will not be able to achieve such strong strength. ”

Su Jin shook his head, "I don't think it should be how strong their strength is, but from the very beginning, our people have been exposed to their field of vision, and then, they only need to wait for an excellent time and venue to do this!" And then throw the corpses out and deliberately let us find them, and their death gives us the illusion that the other party's strength is terrifying, then it naturally becomes the best weapon to deter us, which is to warn us, but also to make us retreat! ”

Du Xiu nodded, "Brother Qin Ming and I thought the same way, when we found the bodies of the sacrificed brothers, because it was still a little early, the target was too big, and we didn't dare to do it for fear of being suspected, until it was completely dark, Brother Qin personally brought someone to bring back the bodies of the brothers, and now it should be back soon!" ”

Su Jin bowed his head and said in a low voice, "This time I am too light on the enemy, and I have taken so many lives in vain!" ”

"It's not your fault, I came up with this idea, I was also at the bottom of the mountain at the time, and when I saw them sneaking up the mountain so smoothly, I was not only not vigilant, but also thought that my method had succeeded!"

"It's still the old rule, if you have parents and family, take good care of their parents and family, and if you don't...... Just burn more paper money! ”

Du Xiu nodded, "Well, my subordinates understand!" ”

"But as for the investigation of Lingyue Mountain, are we going to give up on it?" Bi Xi asked, her expression a little heavy.

Su Jin lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then looked up at Du Xiudao, "Brother Du, let's describe the situation on the side slope of Lingyue Mountain for me again!" ”

"Are you going to break through the sideslope?" Du Xiu was surprised, "Brother Qin and I haven't considered this method before, but it won't work!" Let's not say that it is so high and steep, and the reeds are so deep that people can't even find the direction when they get in, and they don't know where it is feasible and where it is not feasible, even if they can go up, they are afraid that they will not be able to climb half the slope and will be dead, there are poisonous snakes everywhere, so many that you can't imagine it, and most of them are instantly deadly poisonous snakes! ”

"Vipers, aren't they? Since it is a problem of poison, then now is the time for us to use the Cangzhou Jiang family! Su Jin turned his head to look at Bi Xi and said, "Bi Xi, fly pigeons overnight and pass the book to the Jiang family, all the poisonous snake species that may exist in my Da Chen, prepare a batch of their antidote drugs, and transport them in the shortest possible time, and they must be kept extremely secret!" ”

Du Xiu and the others suddenly realized, patted their heads, and said hatefully, "That's right! How did we forget about the Jiang family! The Jiang family is the world's premier, first-class pharmaceutical family, since it is pharmaceutical, then what poison is difficult to defeat them! ”

"It's hard to be difficult, but if this matter has to be started again, it can only be pushed back!" Su Jindao.

"Did Miss Jiang have any letters during this time? She's ....... now What people?! Du Xiu was halfway through his words, when he suddenly noticed that a black shadow flashed quickly outside the window on the side, his complexion suddenly changed, and he shouted.
