Chapter 55: A Strange Atmosphere
Leng Chitong and the three of them hurried back to Leng's Villa without stopping.
I saw four white lanterns hanging on the gate of the villa, and strips of white silk cloth hung down, swaying with the wind.
Looking through the gate, you can see the white scenery all the way.
From time to time, there were three or two disciples of the mountain villa, and their faces were all gloomy.
He...... Is he really ......
Looking at everything in front of him, Leng Chitong still didn't want to believe it.
He stood still, as if he was wrapped in shackles with thousands of pounds of boulders under his feet, and he couldn't move any steps at all.
His reason had already revealed the answer, but he did not dare to step through this door for a long time, because he was really afraid that he would see the cold corpse that was already cold.
Leng Chitong, who fell into a nightmare, only felt that the wind in his ears was whistling, which was extremely desolate and cold.
For Qiu Rong'er, Leng Yueming is clear to her, a teacher and a father, and she is the benefactor who saved herself from dire distress when she was young.
The two people who originally rushed back, at this moment, they all stopped in front of this gate!
Although Squeak is an outsider, he understands Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er's mood at this time.
"Why did the owner of the cold village suddenly pass away?" Squeak asked the two absent-minded people beside him coldly.
Sure enough, as soon as this key sentence came out, the two reacted at once.
"That's right! Why? Qiu Rong'er raised her head suddenly, waking up like a dream.
Although Leng Chitong didn't speak, he was obviously aware of something, and the depression in his eyes dissipated in an instant.
The three of them looked at each other, and the confusion in their hearts was written on their faces.
"Second Senior Sister, Little Master, you still haven't gone in? Let's go to the Dian Tang to see the owner's wife! She ......, "The disciples guarding the door couldn't help but wake up when they saw that Leng Chitong and the others were always at the door.
Mother!?
Leng Chitong's heart tightened, and he almost collapsed.
The three of them couldn't help but say, with the three lights and shadows flashing, they disappeared in front of the gate of the Leng Villa at once, and then appeared in the Dian Hall!
"Just ...... Did I just dazzle? One of the disciples was so surprised that he rubbed his eyes vigorously, thinking that he had just been dazzled.
The other gatekeeper looked at where the three of them were standing and shook his head, "No! You read that right! The second senior sister's skills have suddenly increased a lot, but isn't the little young master without a cultivation physique? That just ......"
The four of them looked at each other, but after all, they couldn't come to a conclusion.
At this time, in front of the Leng Yueming tablet in the Dian Hall, there were two men dressed in black, who seemed to be respectfully bowing to the tablet in front of them to express their condolences.
One of the white-faced men wore a string of black tassels around his waist, while the other tall man wore a string of purple bells around his waist, occasionally making a soft "bell" sound as he moved.
They turned to face the haggard lady, bowed a few times, and then walked straight out the door.
The eyes of the two were extremely indifferent, and there was no sadness in them. It can be seen that this visit is just a formality.
As soon as they reached the door, the two began to fight in secret, and the hostility in their eyes was self-evident.
It seems that the relationship between the North Mountain Evil Sect and the South Mountain Demon Sect is becoming more and more stiff, what contradiction is there between them......
Squeak saw the origin of the two at a glance, and looked at the murderous aura faintly revealed in the eyes of the two, and felt a little more worried in his heart.
However, at this moment, Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er's eyes had long been blind to everything, and they only noticed the beautiful girl who was leaning in front of an uncovered sandalwood coffin.
There was not a trace of brilliance in Jiao Niang's eyes, her eyes were red and swollen, her face was as pale as white paper, and she was paralyzed on the ground, as if she had lost all her strength.
Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er hurriedly walked to Jiao Niang's side without squeaking.
"Plop!"
The two knelt in front of the sandalwood coffin, and the three of them hugged each other, tears like bursting the embankment.
"Kid, he's gone, that's it! How is it possible, could it all be just a dream? Jiao Niang seemed to have finally waited for someone to cry about, choked up, looked at Leng Chitong, and then looked at Qiu Rong'er, as if waiting for a negative answer she was looking forward to.
Qiu Rong'er choked for a while, and couldn't say a word for a while.
Squeak didn't say anything, bowed respectfully to Leng Yueming's tablet, and turned around again.
She glanced at Leng Yueming, who was lying quietly in the sandalwood coffin, but saw that his face was still good, as if he had just fallen asleep.
"Mrs. Zhuang owner, I am the handmaiden of the Yishan faction, this time by the entrustment of the head of my faction, I am here to mourn, and I hope to mourn the ......festival" Squeak is really extraordinary, although she is young, she speaks so steadily.
These words were said through the squeaky mouth, which caused the disciples of the mountain villa in the hall to be surprised by this girl.
"Madame Owner, please forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous. Recently, what has happened to this Leng's Villa? What did the owner of the cold village die for? ”
When Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er heard this, they immediately concentrated their attention, and both looked at Jiao Niang without saying a word, because they also wanted to know the truth.
Jiao Niang looked at Squeak weakly, and recalled a day that made her so sad.
"I don't know...... Yueming was obviously fine that day, but they suddenly said that he was dead! By the time I saw him again, he was already ...... It's been ...... already."
At this point, Jiao Niang's throat choked, and she cried out loud, unable to speak any longer.
"Woo woo woo woo ......" Jiao Niang hugged Leng Chi Pupil, trembling all over, and crying loudly. This is the first time she has cried since Leng Yueming's death.
He was fine that day, but he suddenly died? What happened that day? It seems that she doesn't know the cause and effect of this incident. Could it be that there is something strange in this?
Squeak didn't ask any more, and thought to himself.
"Hello big brother!" Just as a few people were crying bitterly, several mountain villa disciples on both sides of the hall shouted respectfully.
Xu Ran walked in with idle steps, straightened his waist, and walked in with a heroic and cool expression.
Xu Ran? It turned out that this was the chief disciple of Lord Lengzhuang!
Squeak listened to the greetings of a few disciples from the villa just now, and immediately guessed the identity of the person who came.
Lupin followed, his face triumphant, with a relaxed step and his hands swaggering.
Lupin? Why is Senior Brother Xu with him?
Qiu Rong'er looked at the familiar and unfamiliar Xu Ran, with confusion in her eyes.
Although Leng Chitong had not been in Leng's Villa for a long time, he had already seen Lu Ping's wicked face clearly, so it was inevitable that he felt a little strange in his heart when he saw Xu Ran walking so close to him.
As soon as Xu Ran entered the Dian Hall, he saw the crying Jiao Niang, so he hurriedly stepped forward, "Master, Master is gone, you must take care of your health!" Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the Master who is as kind as a mountain! ”
Although Jiao Niang couldn't stop sobbing immediately, she immediately wiped away the tears on her cheeks, her eyes suddenly appeared cold, and she turned her head away, but she didn't hear Xu Ran's voice.
"Oh? This is ......" Xu Ran didn't want to pay attention to herself when she saw Jiao Niang, and she didn't talk anymore, so she noticed a teenage girl next to her who had never met.
"I am the handmaiden of the Yishan faction, and this time I am ordered by the head of my faction to visit here!" After speaking, squeaky hands clenched into fists, which can be regarded as meeting etiquette.
Xu Ran was surprised, and looked up and down at the rather imposing little girl in front of him, "Oh? You are the handmaid of the Yishan faction squeak!? Sure enough, an extraordinary prodigy! ”
"Prize!" Squeak answered lightly.
Xu Ran was polite and said, "Say hello to Master Yue on my behalf!" ”
"Just now, I inadvertently asked the owner's wife about the reason for the death of the owner of the village, but she didn't seem to know, what was going on? I don't know if you, as the eldest disciple of the owner of Leng's Villa, know? The squeak changed and asked Xu Ran about the reason for Leng Yueming's death.
Xu Ran was stunned at first, but he didn't expect Squeak to interfere in the affairs of Leng's Villa.
However, within a minute, Xu Ran came back to his senses and smiled lightly, "It's really rare that the squeaky girl cares so much about our Leng Villa!" It's just that it seems to ...... It doesn't have anything to do with you, does it? After all, this is our own business, even if you are a maid of the Yishan faction, there should be no reason to ask, right? ”
Don't say? Could it be that there is a ghost in your heart?
Squeak couldn't refute anything for a while, but faintly felt that Xu Ran had a problem.
What kind of prodigy, the legend is amazing, I think, it's just a little girl, and she dares to run here to spread wild, ridiculous!
Lupin suddenly fell silent when he saw Squeak, and there was a look of disdain in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Jiao Niang suddenly stood up.
However, due to excessive sadness and the fact that she had been sitting on her knees for a long time, she suddenly got up and almost made her fall.
Fortunately, Leng Chitong reflected in time, followed by standing up, and stabilized the unbalanced Jiao Niang.
Jiao Niang waved her hand, "Hitomi, don't worry, I'm fine......"
Leng Chitong was still not at ease, and still insisted on supporting Jiao Niang.
He no longer has the old man in the white robe, and now he has lost his biological father, he can't let Jiao Niang go on any business trip no matter what!
Jiao Niang suddenly sneered, "Heh! Xu Ran, the squeaky girl is an outsider, what about me? I'm not an outsider, am I? ”
"Master, how can you be an outsider? Naturally, it is not an outsider! Xu Ran forced a smile.
"Tell me, then, what happened that day? Yueming, he is obviously fine, why is this all of a sudden? I asked you why you just wouldn't tell me what you were trying to hide from me! Jiao Niang's eyes widened, very excited.
What the? Xu Ran has never told my mother the truth!? Could it be that he is hiding something unseemly!
Leng Chitong listened to what Jiao Niang said to Xu Ran, and couldn't help but be suspicious of Xu Ran.
Seeing that the scene was a little out of control, Lu Ping couldn't help but get nervous, and wanted to make some excuses for Xu Ran, "Mrs. Zhuang Ran, in fact, the senior brother didn't hide anything from you, and he didn't know what happened that day!" You've really wronged your brother! ”
"Lupin! There's no room for you to interject here! I want to listen to Xu Ran! Jiao Niang suddenly shouted, and her face was full of excitement.
Looking at such an almost crazy girl, Xu Ran was shocked and was shocked.
Although after Leng Yueming's death, Jiao Niang also asked herself several times about what happened that day, but she had never been so out of control!
