How long is a quarter of an hour?

Bi Ruo looked at the people all over the yard with their own thoughts, and the disdainful eyes that hooked the corners of his lips remained in the bottom of his eyes, and he believed that someone would not help but get up and tell him something interesting.

Xia Houming's quarter of an hour seemed to be a long time, and in a no-man's corner, no one would find him, nor would they think that he would be able to live.

The medicine worked, at least his consciousness began to clear, his hand propped up on the ground, and he inadvertently pressed to a place, and he was completely lowered to the underground secret room that he had been searching for by the sudden opening of the floor.

"Bang" Xia Houming felt that he had fallen down a staircase, his heart hurt, the floor above his head quickly closed, and his vision was dark, Xia Houming was speechless and lost his strength lying on the ground, waiting for him to recover his strength.

The Li family on Fairview Street.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and Bi Ruo looked at the few people who stood up with a smile.

"Very well, are you standing up ready to tell me something? What a smart man. He encouraged the men and beckoned, "Come in this hall, you guys, it's going to be hot outside." ”

Several people walked over happily and stood in front of Bi Ruo. Bi Ruo swept his gaze across each of their faces, and saw clearly the anxiety and expectation on their faces, which is the characteristic of bold gamblers, and it is really urgent to move to survive rather than die.

Bi Ruo took his gaze back, he sat on the chair, next to the little girl who was eating quietly, he glanced at it and turned his head to talk to the few people in front of him, "Let's talk about what you each do in the mansion first." ”

Several people easily said their duties, Bi Ruo nodded, and began to ask in a targeted manner.

"You said you were helping out in the kitchen, right, but let me ask you a question, has there been anything unusual about the food in the kitchen in the last month? I mean, if you've ever taken care to give some very unique meals to a certain yard, tell me the truth, or else...... I really don't want to see blood early in the morning, after all, this kind of thing is too unlucky, isn't it? ”

This obviously prepared questioning was mixed with a strong threat, which frightened the old woman, and immediately knelt down, and replied in a trembling voice, "The old slave divides the dishes in the kitchen, but I know some things you said, the big lord, that there is a courtyard where the dishes are made alone, and the delivery time is a quarter of an hour earlier than the usual time for dining in the house. In addition, the meals are some medicinal foods for complement health. ”

"Oh? Thank you so much, but in which yard did you send these meals? Bi Ruo looked at the old woman and continued to follow the path with a smile.

"This?"

"Huh? You want to say that you don't know either, right? ”

Bi Ruo's words already carried the meaning of taking out a knife to cut people, and the old woman was even more frightened, knelt on the ground and sank her head very low, and hurriedly loudly defended herself to increase the chances of survival.

"Spare your life! Spare your life! The old slave had only heard the name once, it was called, it was called Running Paper Garden, yes! That's the name, it's a deserted garden built on the ruins of the former Runzhi Building. ”

"Well, that's good." Bi Ruo's voice had some warmth in it, and he couldn't hear joy or anger, he looked at the kneeling person on the ground, raised his face and glanced outside, and a man dressed in an official mansion moved quietly and silently.

He was one of the members of the Shadow Guard he led, and stealing information and assassinating him was his master's skill.

Retracting his gaze, Bi Ruo comforted the old woman and continued to ask the next person's questions.

Soon, Bi Ruo asked for the news he wanted from these servants who were not important at all, and asked them to get up and go to eat and rest in front of everyone.

Then he looked at the masters of the Li family kneeling in the crowd, and the smile on his face was very ill-intentioned.

"I'm afraid I can't imagine it, the Li family became a prisoner overnight, this is not pleasant, right?"

Bi Ruo squatted in front of a man who was a little older, looked at his face and said this.

The man's face was not very good, the chain at his wrist made a piercing sound on the ground, the man raised his head and stared at the arrogant Bi Ruo, and suddenly took a sip in his mouth, scolded angrily and sneered, "You think I don't know you, who are you?" Isn't it just a prince who was forced to exile and fell out of favor, and he wants to use the exploits of defeating our Li family to go back up, it's too good to think! I tell you, it can't be! Gang fights won't let you get your wish! ”

Bi Ruo smiled, his shrewd eyes were full of light, disgust and ridicule at the person in front of him, "Li Baijiang! I'm going to tell you too! The sins you committed back then will also make you unable to turn over, now you are a prisoner, you collaborate with the enemy and treason, you sword your own brother, you are guilty of Taotao, so, what else do you have to argue, no matter how bad my master is, it is also the life of that person, so what about you? What is left of the ruthless plan back then?! ”

This man named Li Baijiang has white sideburns, wrinkles on his face, a pair of eyes cloudy and angry, he kneels on the ground, there is no one around him, and it seems that his popularity is not very good.

Bi Ruo hooked the corners of his lips, pulled out a smile, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the chain on Li Baijiang's hand, pulling the person into a little, Bi Ruo whispered a word.

"I'm afraid you will never think that the person who wants your Li family to fall is actually not us, but the avenger from hell."

"What did you say?!" Li Baijiang obviously didn't believe this news, but Bi Ruo's expression made him hesitate, "Who are you talking about?" Who is it?! ”

Looking at him like this, he didn't have the spicy appearance he had more than ten years ago, Bi Ruo showed a mocking smile and said, "A person you know but can't remember." ”

After speaking, Bi Ruo got up and stood up, "Someone!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a group of officers and soldiers quickly ran in with spears in their hands and stood neatly beside them.

Bi Ruo looked around, took out a piece of paper from his arms and unfolded it.

"Arrest warrant." Bi Ruo said these words, "Everyone, you can end this painful kneeling." ”

No one will be happy, and all they can have on their faces is anger and hatred, as well as despair in defeat.

With a wave of their hands, the officers and soldiers divided the people of the Li Mansion into two groups, put chains on them and slapped them in a row, and finally arrested them all in broad daylight.

Bi Ruo was very satisfied with the information he had obtained, and he turned around to look at the Li Mansion, which covered an extremely large area, and thought in his heart what the master had told him.

At this moment, a figure slowly walked out from the shade of flowers and trees, the wind blew a corner of the clothes with a clear white line of warp and weft, black shoes stained with dust, stepping on fallen leaves and water stains, and walked firmly and calmly.

The palms of the folds, the pink lotus flower at the collar, the very handsome face, and the bare head.

Lotus mirror.

Bi Ruo had already heard of him, and knew that this person was in the Li Mansion, and he also guessed that he would appear.

"Master Lotus Mirror." Bi Ruo bowed slightly and made a namaste to bow to the young but well-respected Buddhist master.

Lianjing's handsome face was full of compassion, and her eyes were clear and sharp, as if she had seen a soul, which made Bi Ruo feel that it was difficult to parry.

He remained ready to talk to Lianjing politely, but Lianjing directly interrupted all Bi Ruo's thoughts.

"Lord Xi Shi, the poor monk knows where the person you are looking for is, please go with the poor monk."

Bi Ruo rubbed his nose a little embarrassed and said, "Hahaha, I haven't heard anyone call my surname for a long time, and I suddenly feel uncomfortable." ”

"Lord Xi Shi, please follow the poor monk."

Lianjing didn't care about Bi Ruo's embarrassment at all, but calmly said her request again.

"Oh, yes, Master, please."

Bi Ruo regained his composure in a second, and politely and vigilantly followed Lianjing to the depths of the courtyard.
