Chapter Ninety-Two: Chaos
Chu Huan was dizzy, and finally woke up, stood up and looked around, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart. He took a few steps forward, this was the courtyard he used to lock Chu Min, all in Swallow Alley, not far from his residence. He entered the house, and sure enough, the man was gone, and there was only a pile of hemp rope and a few angry footprints on the ground.
When Chu Huan saw this, he already knew his ending. This was a premeditated discord plan, and in the current situation, it was useless for him to say anything.
He dusted off the ashes on his gray robe, picked up a pot of cold tea on the table unhurriedly, and poured a cup to the full, he drank it all, and it was cold to the bottom of his heart. After drinking the cold tea, he sat at the table for a while, holding his forehead, and picking up the hemp rope on the ground with a dark gaze. The broken rope was cut by a neat knife edge, and it was easy, and he looked at the broken rope, and suddenly began to laugh, and the laughter became louder and louder, almost crazy.
No one knows what he's in mind at the moment. The thirteen hidden guards on the beam of the house only felt that he was angry. After laughing, the man staggered to his feet, clutching his neck, as if drunk, and staggered towards the door.
Thirteen looked at people, and had to follow all the way to protect him and prevent Xiao Changying from sending someone to really kill him.
Chu Huan returned home without fear, and before he pushed the door open, he was greeted by a bright blade rushing towards him. He didn't seem to be taken aback at all, and he didn't move. Seeing that the tip of the knife was about to pierce in, Thirteen threw a flying knife from a high place and struck the blow away.
Chu Huan didn't blink his eyes, facing this group of people who came to kill him, as well as those who protected him in the dark.
Thirteen can't really make people become dead souls under the knife, and the killers sent by Xiao Changying are not weak, and they are determined to take Chu Huan's life. He looked at the form, blew his whistle, and asked the hidden guards nearby to come with him. Chu Huan's expression was wrong, he had to follow this person.
Chu Huan entered the house with his back on his back, and he didn't even look at the fighting in the yard. He entered the room, pulled a bag out of the box in the corner, threw it on his back, tied it in a dead knot, and then picked out some things from the box, put them in his sleeve, closed the box, and kicked it aside.
When Thirteen rushed in from the sword, Chu Huan's eyes looked indifferently, and when he met his gaze, it was like a flash of lightning, and he didn't even have time to react, and a loud popping sound exploded in his ears. Something exploded, crackling and suddenly sparks splashed everywhere, and a very pungent and smoky smell of gunpowder smoke came.
Thirteen's heart tightened, and Chu Huan said to him impatiently, "Your task is complete." Go back and tell Miss Song, don't bother her, Xiao Changying won't be able to get my life. As he spoke, he tucked the handcuff-like thing into his baggage and tapped the wall with one hand.
"This house is going to collapse, if you don't leave, you're going to be buried here."
In the midst of the flying sawdust, the beams of the house suddenly collapsed with a "bang". This movement quickly attracted the attention of the people fighting in the courtyard, and the explosions sounded one after another, and the smoke and dust were everywhere, and they could not get close anymore, so in order to prevent themselves from hurting themselves, they hurriedly withdrew from the powder field.
Thirteen choked on a mouthful of smoke and fire, and quickly rushed out the moment before the door collapsed.
It's just that in the blink of an eye, a house that was fine when it came here has now been blown into ruins.
"What did you say, Chu Huan, buried?!"
As soon as Chu Min heard the news, his eyes widened, and he couldn't sit still anymore, so he hurriedly ran to Swallow Lane to investigate. Song Yansheng grabbed people, "The place where he lives has now collapsed." Judging from this power alone, he estimated that a large amount of gunpowder had been buried in order to have such a blasting effect. ”
"Your big brother...... Judging from this hand, since he is a person who has even planned a way out, it is impossible to do anything. Song Yansheng looked at Thirteen Dao, "What else did he say?" ”
"Nope." Thirteen shook his head, repeated Chu Huan's only two sentences, looked at Chu Min and said, "I think Miss Song is right, before the house collapsed, I saw him groping for something on the wall, and I guess there was another secret way to escape." ”
After Chu Min heard this, he was silent for a long time, and then looked at Thirteen, "He is real...... Didn't leave me a word? ”
"Nope."
"He's holding a grudge against me." Chu Min sighed, stopped talking, and smiled bitterly.
Song Yansheng also fell silent.
Thirteen remembered Chu Huan's abnormal reaction after waking up, and felt strange, so he told them, "After he woke up, he looked around and seemed to be clear about everything. I didn't think about running, I didn't think about running, and after drinking a cup of tea, I started laughing. ”
"......" Song Yansheng thought about that scene, and his hair stood on end.
"I said I was laughing, but I wasn't happy, it was more like laughing angrily." Thirteen words are concise, "Do you want me to imitate it?" ”
"Still don't need to." She waved her hand, looked at the silent Chu Min next to her, and thought carefully about the previous contact with Chu Huan, and even this one, she figured out that something was wrong.
"I heard you say, Chu Huan put you down with medicine?"
Chu Min looked over, "Yes, it's just a general fan. The medicine was poured into me while I was not prepared. He was not as good as me, and he definitely couldn't control me at that time. ”
"That's not right. As you said, he knows a lot about strange things and ingenuity, and he is very good at inventing tricks. If you use these, you can't be more confused. How easy and fast is medicine for you? Besides, it's not that he doesn't know that you're proficient in medicine, this mystery. Medicine is nothing to you at all, and an antidote pill will not be anything at all if you take it beforehand. Also, he traps you with hemp rope, and it looks even more perfunctory......"
"According to your eldest brother's mind, from this point of view, I think he should have known about our game from the beginning, from the day you came to the door. We are acting, and he is pushing the boat with the current. He tied you up, but he also knew there were secret guards, and he ......"
"But like this...... Didn't he just do what I wanted? Why did he do it? Chu Min frowned, anxious, "Don't say it, he's really for me." I told him that if he left the Three Emperors, he would be inseparable from me, how could he obediently get into the discord we had set up? ”
In Chu Min's description, Chu Huan has always been a good brother in the past, but later in the middle of the family, the person broke his head, and his temperament changed greatly, and his mind became more and more difficult to understand, so there was a gap between the two and they gradually drifted apart.
Song Yansheng suddenly asked an irrelevant question, "Third girl, after your eldest brother broke his head, what else is abnormal?" ”
Hearing her talk about this with a cautious face, Chu Min rubbed her eyebrows and began to recall, "At the beginning, people didn't become what they are now...... Even suddenly he was silent for a while, but he was still good to me, and when he woke up, he liked to toss some wooden carving craftsmen, and at first I didn't notice what he was doing, until he often sent me some delicate knick-knacks. If you want to talk about this fall, maybe there is something in his head that really opened his mind, but some places ...... As soon as he hit it, he was knocked out. For example, he couldn't write well, and we just thought that he couldn't hold a pen when his hand was broken. Then, he didn't remember some people in the family very much, as if he had lost his memory. Later, my home was confiscated, and I went north with him. Speaking of which, his temperament is the most changing at this time, and he is gradually losing his smile and becoming more and more gloomy and unpredictable. Even my sister is like nothing in his eyes. ”
Hearing this, Song Yansheng's previous speculation was also a little untenable, after this Chu Huan fell, it seemed that he had changed to a new person. She cupped her forehead and thought for a while, but she really couldn't think of a reason. Probably, the answer to all the questions can only be asked by Chu Huan himself.
"The top priority now is to clean up the ruins after the explosion on the other side of Swallow Lane, and then completely find the secret passage that your eldest brother set up over there, and follow the path to find your eldest brother's whereabouts." She tilted her head and looked at Chu Min, "I hope that recently, your eldest brother's movements are not so fast." ”
"He...... If he has planned everything, then it will be difficult for us to find others if we look for it. ”
Song Yansheng was silent for a while, and then looked at Thirteen Dao, "The Beijing Gate is so big and there are many passes, if it is in the city, the Yuan family's sphere of influence can help to explore, if it is out of the city, it will be easier to do, it will inevitably leave traces, at each pass, we insert our own people stuck over there." ”
She whispered, "There's always news." ”
Chu Min nodded, "I have to find him and ask him what he means." ”
Xiao Changyuan has not been in a good mood since the account book was taken away. A few days ago, the third son of the emperor handed over the news from Jiangnan, and he took a look, roughly scolding him for not doing things well. He sneered and threw the letter into the stove.
He watched the flames lick inch by inch. Licking through the thin sheet of paper, the surface of the paper quickly folded and twisted, and finally turned into ashes. Jingmen has also been moving frequently recently, the Song family and the Yuan family are busy looking for people, and Xiao Changying is also involved, looking for Chu Huan. As a bystander, the more he looked, the more he felt that she was stupid. People say that if you eat a trench and grow wise, there is no reason to fall twice in front of the same pit, but Xiao Changying fell twice and didn't know it, it was really hopeless.
If he is not mistaken, this recent episode is estimated to be the handiwork of the Song family, to be precise, it is the calculation of the sixth girl of the Song family. From Cao Gang Mo Ling to now, he has seen it thoroughly, how big a net these six girls have set up, and how many times they have cheated their Xiao family.
First of all, it was the sister-in-law of Shen Fang's house, this person was Xiao Changying's spy, who poisoned Shen Fangzhi and failed to succeed, and was killed by the general Ji Ji through Xiao Changying's hand. borrowed a knife to kill people, this is one of them, and he also gave Shen Jiabai a fire lotus seed.
Secondly, it was the account book brought by Mo Ling, which was a trick, and I don't know how many eyes I had deceived. took the account book, made the best use of it, and by the way, used this to use the divisive plan, and successfully tore apart the relationship between Xiao Changying and Chu Huan.
