Chapter 22 The Unspeakable

Chu Yunfei threw out another question and asked her if she had ever seen a man with a scar on his face.

Hu Ji looked at him with a look of displeasure: "I have seen many men in Baihualou, but I have never seen a man with a scar on his face. ”

Chu Yunfei didn't explain why he asked this, in the eyes of this orchid, he was testing himself. Two people with their own hearts will inevitably have misunderstandings.

"I'll ask one more person. Have you ever seen a woman with a special scent on her body? Chu Yunfei said softly.

"Woman? A scented woman? Orchid laughed in surprise, "There are so many kinds of spices in this world, and the spices used by each woman will be different, there are many women with fragrances on their bodies, and women with special fragrances, it's really hard to say." ”

Chu Yunfei said with a straight face: "I'm not talking about ordinary incense, but like the spices of the Western Regions smeared on my body, I have seen it in Persia, and I heard that that kind of spice is very valuable." There are not many people in the whole capital who can afford that kind of spice. ”

The temptation of spices to women is no less than rouge gouache. Women like orchids pay more attention to that particular scent. What's more, the place where he smelled the fragrance was the "As I Smell" store, and although the spice was mixed with musk, the fragrance could still be clearly distinguished. If she is really Yu Xueqing's good friend, she will definitely pay attention to it! In fact, before going to the "If I Smell" store, he had smelled it in another place - the woman with heavy makeup in Qianfang Pavilion.

The expression on Orchid's face was cloudy: "Oh! Do you mean sperm? I did smell that Yu Xueqing's mother might have used the same spice as Childe said. ”

Chu Yunfei's heart was shocked, and he saw Hu Ji continue: "Actually, it is a kind of creamy thing, which is mostly used to wash hair, like the soap horn used by ordinary girls. I heard that if you put it on your hair, it will make your hair very soft. There are also people who use it for bathing. That spice did come from the Western Regions, and it was very precious. Xue Qing once gave me a bottle. I'm not used to using things that are too fragrant, so I keep them there. I'll have someone bring it to my son to smell it. ”

"Are you sure? Is it commonly used by Pretty Shih Tzu? Chu Yunfei looked at her suspiciously, and a big question mark appeared in his heart.

"Yes!" Hu Ji nodded solemnly: "There will be absolutely no mistake." That's right. I've heard Xue Qing say that the spice is made in a special way, and if you use it for a long time, the fragrance will stay on your body and will not dissipate after a month or two. ”

Chu Yunfei nodded, if what she said was credible, some questions would be explained, but an astonishing fact also appeared: the woman he saw in Qianfang Pavilion was indeed a pretty Shih! Why did she go there? How did she escape when the bloody case of Wang Wan's family happened?

A sheep ring was delivered with a strangely shaped box. Hu Ji opened the box and handed it to Chu Yunfei: "This is the one that Xue Qing gave me, Gongzi smelled it, is it this smell." ”

The moment he opened the box, Chu Yunfei could be sure that this was the fragrance he smelled in the "Like I Smell" store, and the woman with heavy makeup was also the same smell. In this case, it is very likely that the person he saw was Qiao Xishi! If that's the case, things are even more complicated!

"Childe, Master Chu!" Seeing that he was distracted, Hu Ji hurriedly shouted a few times, "Actually, I have another news here. It's about the 'If I Smell' shop. I heard that someone sold the "Pounding Practice" for 500 taels of gold last night, and it was said that the person who sold the painting was a young man. Who's likely to get their hands on that painting, you say? Is it possible that someone from the Yu family? For example, Xue Qing? Orchid said softly.

"Oh?" Chu Yunfei frowned. In addition to Yu Xueqing, who can hold the "Pounding Diagram" in his hand, he may also be another person, Qiao Xishi.

"Actually, if you want the details of Wang Million, I can provide you with a part." A hearty male voice sounded, and a man in a golden suit walked in surrounded by a crowd.

His face is obscured by a doll mask, making him look somewhat comical. The man swaggered in and said almost to himself: "Wang Wanwan's name is a household name, and he is a legendary figure. Six years ago he was a nobody, but in just a few months, he became synonymous with the rich. I'm a money-loving person, so I'm also curious about a man like him who got rich overnight, and we investigated him five and a half years ago. ”

"Oh?" Chu Yunfei looked up at him.

"What we do in Baihualou is the business of rich people, and if we want to make their money, we must investigate everything about them in order to do what they like. But it is not easy to investigate Wang Million, because he rarely goes out and has almost no contact with people, and it is difficult to see him. But fortunately, we managed to find out something. Do you know what is the secret of his overnight riches? The man asked, but before Chu Yunfei could speak, he said to himself, "There are thousands of ways to get rich overnight, and the only way that doesn't require capital is to ...... Grave! Wang Million is self-made with this! ”

"Tomb robbing?" Chu Yunfei didn't want to let himself be too surprised, but this was too unexpected for him.

"Yes, it's a tomb robber. Wang Million is actually not surnamed Wang, he is really surnamed Yu, called Yu Laicai. Does Young Master Chu have an impression of this name? ”

"You're talking about him? Luoyang's famous tomb robber! Yu Laicai! Chu Yunfei said in surprise.

This name is not unfamiliar to people in Luoyang and Kaifeng, and he has almost dug the tombs of the kings and grandchildren of the Luoyang generation. But any rich family, there is no one who does not grit his teeth when he mentions him.

"Not bad. Six years ago, he came to Kaifeng with that batch of ill-gotten gains, incognito to buy family wealth, in order to hide his identity, he started a business, and soon became the richest man in the capital. However, he did not change his thief nature, and started the idea of the Treasure Pavilion. Now think about it the other way around, no one will be disgusted with a lot of money, let alone a person like him, where will he let go when he sees a priceless treasure? So he took risks again, spent a lot of effort to set up a poison plan, and ransacked the Treasure Pavilion. The man's voice was flat.

Chu Yunfei had a look of admiration: "The owner of the Hundred Flowers Mansion is really well-intentioned, can I ask the landlord again if there are some questions?" ”
