Chapter 18 Complex Matters, Simple Handling

Castle Lord's Mansion.

When Jiang Fan came back, Jiang Liuxue had not been away for long.

As soon as he returned, he saw the wooden box on the table, but there was no sword in the wooden box.

There are some things that the city lord's wife can know, and it is naturally impossible for him, as the city lord, not to know.

He looked at the wooden box on the table and said in a deep voice, "Why don't you stop it?"

Yu Shuangshuang looked up at her husband, who had been with her for more than ten years, without fear, without worry, just endless love, so her tone was as calm as before, "Xue'er has grown up, there are some things, we should respect her choice." ”

Jiang Fan took her hand and sat down, put her hand on his knee, patted it gently, and said softly: "I don't blame you, although that kid is involved in Tianji Pavilion and Gusu City, but I won't care about Xue'er's happiness because of this, you must know that Xue'er is not only your daughter, but also my daughter, and I love Xue'er no less than you." ”

Yu Shuangshuang raised his head and looked at her husband, just watching.

Jiang Fan said with a smile: "Besides, even if I really want to use this kid to get in touch with Tianji Pavilion or Gusu City, will this kid agree? If he knows that Su Rufan's death was planned by me, I'm afraid he will want to dismantle me in eight pieces." ”

Yu Shuangshuang still didn't speak.

Jiang Fan could only continue: "This kid is damned, after being implicated in Tianji Pavilion and Gusu City, he should be damned! There are some things that have been done and have been done, and there is no way to make up for it." If Su Rufan died, I might have enveloped this kid, and even sent Xue'er, but Su Rufan was dead after all, and there was no possibility of resolving the enmity between the City Lord's Mansion and the Su family, so I naturally wouldn't let an enemy who might have a strong background live under my nose. I just don't think you should let Cher take the risk. ”

Yu Shuangshuang finally spoke: "With Xue'er's strength, it's more than enough to kill that little scumbag, and after all, this is a private matter between the two of them, and it's not easy for others to interfere, take a step back and say, even if that person interferes, it won't hurt Xue'er." ”

Jiang Fan shook his head, got up and said, "You have always had no last resort, but we don't know this person after all, we are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, Xue'er is our daughter after all." ”

Yu Shuangshuang stood up and said worriedly, "Why don't I go and have a look?"

Jiang Fan shook his head and said, "If that person really makes a move, it will be useless for you and me to go together." ”

Yu Shuangshuang was a little remorseful, and his worries were even greater, "Then what should I do?" ”

In the tormented waiting of the husband and wife, Jiang Liuxue held the sword, walked into the city lord's mansion, and walked into this room.

Seeing that Jiang Liuxue came back safe and sound, the husband and wife breathed a sigh of relief, and before they could speak, Jiang Liuxue said in a deep voice: "I didn't kill him." ”

With that, she put the sword back in the wooden box, and walked out of the room and back to her own.

The husband and wife froze in place, not knowing why.

Jiang Liuxue didn't say anything, they could only guess.

......

......

Su Xiaoqi sat on the stone jar used to hold water in the courtyard, he looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and felt a little depressed.

Someone came to the door and stabbed a sword inexplicably, what is this called?

But the knife just now seems to be a bit interesting.

He looked down at the short knife in his hand, began to recall the previous knife, and then jumped off the stone jar, holding the knife in his right hand, calming down, and then let out a loud shout, and swung the knife down.

This knife can be described as full of momentum, but not only did it not have the previous effect, but because of the excessive force, it directly involved the wound on the chest, which made Su Xiaoqi grin, oops, oops, screaming, and jumping.

It is because he can only collect the knife to deal with the wound, such an injury can only be called a skin injury for Su Xiaoqi, every time he has carried out a mission in the past two years, many times he just keeps a breath.

Following.

Su Xiaoqi got up early, this is a habit he has developed since he was a child, but he didn't expect someone to be earlier than Su Xiaoqi.

So when Su Xiaoqi opened the door, he saw a person standing in the courtyard.

It was a burly man with a beard, with his hands on his sleeves, looking at the gap in the broken courtyard wall that was split by Su Xiaoqi.

After hearing the door open, the man slowly turned around.

When Su Xiaoqi saw this person, he was obviously taken aback, because he knew this person.

Without waiting for Su Xiaoqi to speak, this person said: "I haven't reported to Tianji Pavilion for almost three months, don't you know the rules of Tianji Pavilion?"

Su Xiaoqi hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "I have some personal matters to deal with, so I delayed some time, I planned to talk to Elder Liu in the next few days, but I was injured again yesterday......"

The man pursed his lips and looked at Su Xiaoqi's chest, "This level of injury is nothing to you, don't use this to fool Lao Tzu, I came this time to make sure that your kid is dead, since he is not dead, I will keep the quota on the side of Tianji Pavilion for you first." ”

Su Xiaoqi hugged his fists and smiled: "Thank you Elder Liu, in order to repay Elder Liu's kindness, the kid will give Elder Liu a bowl of noodles." ”

The man laughed and said, "I know that you kid is on the road." ”

The two walked into the house with a smile, Su Xiaoqi really lit a fire, and soon served 20,000 hot noodles, one bowl per person, gobbling it up, and soon there was not even any scum left.

The man handed the bowl to Su Xiaoqi, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "It is said that eating people has a short mouth, and if they eat your bowl of noodles, they will not eat you in vain, so I will tell you a piece of news that you want to know." ”

Su Xiaoqi was just about to get up and put the bowl away, but after hearing this, he could only sit back on the stool again.

The man pondered for a moment before he spoke: "You have been investigating the affairs of Haotian Sect for the past two years, it is nothing more than because of the cause of your father's death, although I don't know the specifics, but the cause of this incident is indeed the City Lord's Mansion." ”

Su Xiaoqi was not too shocked, nodded and said, "After returning to Panyang Town, I vaguely guessed something. ”

The man nodded and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" Don't tell me that you are going to settle accounts with the Jiang family, as far as your kid's current strength is concerned, it's not that I said, I really can't even enter the Jiang family." ”

Su Xiaoqi said bitterly: "The account must be settled, sooner or later, but I still can't figure it out, since the cause of this matter is in the City Lord's Mansion, Su Rufan ...... Why did my father go to Haotian Sect, even if Haotian Sect is related to the City Lord's Mansion, what does it have to do with this matter?"

The man wiped his beard, pointed at Su Xiaoqi, and then pointed at Su Xiaoqi's chest, which was the position where Jiang Liuxue was stabbed with a sword yesterday, and said slowly: "This matter has to start with your marriage to Jiang Liuxue." ”

Su Xiaoqi frowned, but did not make a sound, and continued to wait for the man's next step.

The man continued: "Before Jiang Liuxue was born, the old lady of the Jiang family made this family affair with your father, but after the death of the old lady, the Jiang family had less contact with your father and son, and Jiang Liuxue was also sent to Haotian Sect to practice. Before this, Jiang Liuxue and you had a marriage, which is a big trouble for the Jiang family and Haotian Sect, so what is the best way to solve this trouble?"

Su Xiaoqi didn't have to think about it, and said directly: "I'll die." ”

The man sneered and said disdainfully: "These mountain people are like this, they think they are otherworldly and dominate everything, which is really hateful and hateful. I think your father knew about the plan of Haotianzong and the City Lord's Mansion, so in order to protect you, before Haotianzong started, your father killed Haotianzong by himself, and at the same time asked you to leave Panyang Town with that knife. ”

He suddenly frowned and shook his head, and said to himself: "No, no, since your father is from that place, no matter how you look at it, he shouldn't make such a choice, he can escape with you, there is no need to throw his life in Haotian Sect." ”

He began to fall into deep thought.

Su Xiaoqi asked, "That place, what is it?"

The man was thinking about things, and said casually: "Gusu City, I also saw this knife in your hand, so I agreed to let you enter Tianji Pavilion." ”

After saying this, he looked at Su Xiaoqi again and shook his head again, "It's not right, Gu Sucheng's surname is Yun, but your surname is Su, it shouldn't be related, but this knife is indeed Gu Su Yun's clothes knife Undoubtedly, what the hell is going on, it's about to confuse Lao Tzu." ”

When Su Xiaoqi heard these words, he only felt that he was in a fog and inexplicable.

The man suddenly got up and patted his buttocks, "This kind of brain-burning thing, my old Liu is not good at, but this matter doesn't seem to be as simple as imagined, behind this, maybe there are more powerful characters to push." Okay, a bowl of noodles, after saying so much, you kid won't lose, Lao Liu, I'll leave, if you kid doesn't die, you might as well go back to Tianji Pavilion. Tianji Pavilion is a killer organization on the surface, but it is actually an intelligence agency of the empire, as long as you kid have enough ability to enter the center of this big net, what you want to know when the time comes, it's just a matter of a glance. ”

After finishing speaking, the cheeky man really left directly, leaving a bag of money at the same time, which was regarded as the reward for the last mission.

After the cheeky man left, Su Xiaoqi sat on the original stool and thought for a long time.

Now it has been determined that the cause of Su Rufan's death is in the Jiang family, and he also knows the origin of this knife, which means that his life experience has an eyebrow, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain.

It's just that he can't leave Panyang Town now, and everything has to wait until he brings Su Rufan's body back from Haotian Sect.

It was a promise he made to himself, and a promise to the man who died.

As for whether there is someone behind this matter, or whether there is any bigger conspiracy, it is not what Su Xiaoqi should think about now.

That way, the rest is simple.

become stronger, and then go to Hao Tianzong, and then seek justice from the Jiang family.

That man once said that it's one thing to be able to do something, and it's another thing to not do it, because if you don't even do it, how do you know you can't do it?

But you can't be in a hurry, you have to eat bite by bite, you have to walk step by step, and cultivation is even more.

The only thing to do now is to draw the sword talisman.
