Chapter 574: Tracking Down the Pill
Zhang Bao'er nodded and said, "Master Yuan, because there is an important case, please don't expose my identity." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"I know the weight!"
As they spoke, the three of them had already arrived in the lobby of Sword Forge Villa. Although it was broad daylight, the hall was brightly lit, and there were already more than a dozen people sitting in the hall, greeting each other, pushing cups and changing lamps, and it seemed that they were very familiar with each other.
In the hall, the piano flute and the song, the silk and bamboo playing, the noise of wine tasting and laughing are sandwiched with intoxicating vocal music, and it is a lively scene.
Zhang Bao'er, Uncle Hua and Yuan Feng found a secluded place and just sat down, but in the laughter of the crowd, a clear voice came out and said, "Thank you for coming to Sword Casting Villa!" ”
The person who spoke was Duan Lianting, the owner of Sword Casting Villa, he was in his forties, dressed with a head and a face, a new hat, new clothes and new boots, his eyebrows were handsome, his spirit was flying, and he was wearing a seven-star long sword with silver light on his waist.
"Duan, please get all your old friends together today......" Duan Lianting's words suddenly stopped in the middle of his words, and his suspicious eyes stopped at Zhang Baoer and Uncle Hua.
Zhang Baoer stood up and reported to the door: "Master Duan, my surname is Zhang, his surname is Hua, and the two of us are the catchers of Lantian County." ”
"Oh, it's a catch! The presence of the two of them is really exciting! Duan Lianting said politely, but there was no trace of politeness in his tone.
Sure enough, Duan Lianting changed his words and said: "But Duan Mou invited all old friends to the banquet today, and he didn't dare to invite the two. ”
Zhang Bao'er smiled faintly and said, "You didn't invite us, but someone invited us." ”
Duan Lianting was surprised, so he asked, "Who is it?" ”
Zhang Baoer handed the blood note to Duan Lianting, and Duan Lianting asked puzzled after reading it: "Who wrote the blood note?" ”
Zhang Baoer took out a blood-colored peony handkerchief and said word by word: "Peony, Dan, kill, hand." ”
There was an uproar in the lobby: "Peony killer? The Peony Killer is coming? ”
"Where is he?"
Zhang Bao'er wanted this kind of atmosphere, and he glanced around the crowd: "I believe that the peony killer is in the villa at this moment." ”
Duan Lianting seemed to be unconvinced: "There is only one wooden bridge in and out of the Sword Casting Villa, and the wooden bridge is guarded at all times, the Sword Casting Villa can be said to be impregnable, how can the Peony Killer come in?" ”
Zhang Bao'er smiled: "I didn't have an invitation, didn't I come in too?" I think the peony killer is going to come in, there is always a way. Do you really believe that a cliff and a wooden bridge can stop the invincible peony killer in the world? ”
Duan Lianting shook his head and said, "Although the Peony Killer has committed many crimes over the years, he has never dared to go to the Sword Casting Villa, and there has never been an assassination in the Villa. ”
Zhang Baoer said: "Everything will change. ”
"What then?"
Zhang Baoer glanced at everyone: "Let the guests go back to the guest room immediately, and don't go out at night." ”
Seeing this, Duan Lianting had to let the family send the guests back to the room, and a lively banquet disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a solemn atmosphere.
After everyone left, Duan Lianting stared at Zhang Bao'er: "I hope the news that Zhang Zhu gets is true!"
"Please cooperate with Master Duan and give me the list of guests!"
Duan Lianting nodded and said, "This is natural!" ”
In the guest room, Zhang Baoer looked at the list and suddenly stood up.
"What's wrong, uncle?" Uncle Hua hurriedly asked.
"Chiba Divine Doctor Tang Yiping is also on the guest list."
Uncle Hua said happily: "Tang Yiping is good at medicine, with his help, we can track down the black pills." ”
The courtyard of the guest room is surrounded by walls on three sides, and the rest is a long row of guest rooms, with only one gate, which is closely guarded by several family members.
In the evening, Zhang Baoer and Uncle Hua came to Tang Yiping's guest room and knocked on the door.
Tang Yiping opened the door, looked at Zhang Baoer and the others, and said after being stunned: "Zhang Zhuai came to the door overnight, I think there must be something urgent." ”
Zhang Baoer and Uncle Hua entered the house.
After covering the door, Zhang Baoer arched his hand towards Tang Yiping and said, "We do have an urgent matter that needs the help of our seniors." ”
Tang Yiping asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhang Baoer said: "Don't hide it from the seniors, several officials of the imperial court were poisoned, and the poison was very special, so I came to ask for help from the seniors." ”
Tang Yiping hesitated slightly, and replied: "Tang Mou is loved by his friends and has the false name of the Thousand Herbs Divine Doctor. Now Tang is old, his eyes are dizzy, and he can no longer hang the pot to cure his illness. The old decay really can't help, so Master Zhang should invite another master. ”
Zhang Bao'er said: "Doctor Tang seems to be insincere, is there anything unspeakable?" ”
Uncle Hua also said: "Isn't Doctor Tang afraid of that peony killer?" ”
Doctor Tang's face changed, and he said, "I don't know any peony killers, so why should I be afraid?" ”
Zhang Bao'er said: "But the Peony Killer has infiltrated the villa, and now everyone in the villa is in danger, you can help us deal with the Peony Killer." ”
Tang Yiping groaned and said, "I'm already old, and I don't want to ask about these things anymore." ”
Uncle Hua said coldly: "You are so leisurely, everything is hanging high, but if the peony killer wants to kill you, what should you do?" ”
Zhang Baoer also said: "There are two people in the world who are good at medicine, one is Xu Langzhong of Anrentang, and the other is your senior. Xu Langzhong has already been poisoned by the Peony Killer, and I am only afraid that the Peony Killer will come at the seniors. ”
Tang Yiping smiled indifferently: "The old decay has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, the impermanence of life and death has long been seen through, the world is like a reverse journey, life is like a passerby, what joy is life, and what is there to fear in death?" The two of you should please go back, the old man can't help. ”
After Tang Yiping finished speaking, he opened the door and was about to send off the guests.
Seeing that Tang Yiping was so resolute, Zhang Baoer and Uncle Hua looked at each other and had to leave first.
Zhang Baoer and Uncle Hua lived in a guest room, and their room was in the middle, not far from Tang Yiping's room. The yard is planted with colorful flowers, which are blooming brightly, but the yard is empty, unpopular, and looks deserted and lonely.
Zhang Bao'er frowned and said, "Uncle Hua, don't you think this Tang Divine Doctor's speech and reaction are a bit strange. ”
"It's a little weird!" Uncle Hua nodded and said, "Let's come back tomorrow, the so-called doctor's parents' heart, I don't believe he will be so hard-hearted." ”
Back in the guest room, Zhang Baoer fell asleep.
Uncle Hua didn't untie his clothes, put on his clothes and slept with his clothes on, and firmly grasped the long sword in his hand.
At dawn the next day, suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door, Uncle Hua hurriedly got up and hurriedly opened the door, only to see a maid outside the door, who was nervously gesturing with her hands, she was actually a mute girl.
After the dumb girl made a comparison, Uncle Hua understood the general meaning: the Zhuang asked them to go to the last room of the guest room, where something terrible seemed to have happened.
Zhang Baoer also understood on the side, and the two hurriedly came to the last room of the guest room.
