Chapter 327: The Girl in the Snow Mountain
Xu Xiangsi was amused by this man, and when he saw her delicate appearance of covering his mouth and chuckling, Bill's eyes burned a little.
"Hey, you don't want to soak me, do you?" She asked.
Bill was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "You can say that, I don't know, do I have this honor?" ”
Xu Xiangsi pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word.
This Bill has a good skin, but he is flamboyant when he speaks, and I don't know how many ignorant girls have been charmed by this method.
She suddenly started to play a little bit and was about to tease this man again, but suddenly felt a chill on her back.
His neck turned a little stiffly, and he met the cold gaze of Leng Mo in the crowd.
"I'm sorry, but I have a boyfriend."
Xu Xiangsi naturally didn't want to find death, so she slipped back to the man's side with a low eyebrow and pleasing appearance.
"Don't get me wrong. I just chatted with him and that's it. ”
"If you want to chat, you can find me."
Xu Xiangsi looked at his face, which was colder than the Southern Alps, and couldn't help but shudder.
Forget it!
The lights in the castle dimmed, and the red curtain on the second floor slowly opened.
A spotlight struck, and everyone fell silent and looked over.
In the quiet atmosphere, accompanied by the sound of low but powerful footsteps, a middle-aged man dressed in a big hat slowly walked into everyone's sight.
In the crowd, Xu Xiangsi asked in a low voice, "Who is this person?" ”
Leng Mo replied, "Bernhorst." ”
The man on the second floor spoke.
"Good evening, my distinguished guests! As all of you who have received my invitation, I know each and every one of you, but you may not know me, but allow me to introduce myself, my name is Bernhorst, the owner of the castle. ”
Below, I don't know who shouted.
"No need to be polite, Mr. Bane, you know what we're here for!"
"Of course, trust me, I won't let you down!"
The man clapped his hands, and another curtain opened.
Under the spotlight, an oil painting unfolds into the eyes of everyone.
In the painting, it is a little girl wrapped in hair, holding a bouquet of snow lotus, her face is as pure as an angel, and her skin is as white as the snow-capped mountains in the background.
For a moment, there was an uproar below.
This is the most famous and mysterious "Girl in the Snow", which has even disappeared in the eyes of people all over the world for more than 30 years.
What's more, the painting hides the secrets of the Bane family's treasures.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Bernhorst smiled.
"This is the picture of a snowy mountain girl that has been passed down from generation to generation by my Bain family. Whoever can crack the mystery in this painting and find the treasure of the Bane family, everything belongs to whom! I made this very clear in my invitation, and I wish you all the best of luck! ”
The picture of a girl in the snowy mountains slowly descended and was placed in a display window made of tempered glass.
People gathered around, carefully searching for every detail in the painting, trying to unravel the mystery of the painting.
Xu Xiangsi was also very interested, standing in front of the painting, frowning and looking at it.
After a few seconds, she gave up.
"I don't understand it at all. Isn't this just a painting, without words, and the person in the painting can't speak, how can we know where the treasure is? ”
"What's so hard about that? I've seen the subtlety of this! ”
With this warm voice, Bill walked slowly.
This man named Bill is really haunted. However, Xu Xiangsi was very interested in his words.
"You really see that?"
"Of course! If you're willing to be my girlfriend, I'll tell you the secret! ”
"Didn't I tell you? I have a boyfriend. ”
As he spoke, Xu Xiangsi grabbed Leng Mo's arm and looked at him with a smile, like a kitten pleasing his master.
The corners of the man's lips drew an arc that seemed to be a smile rather than a smile, and his deep eyes looked at Bill, the guy who had a crooked mind about the little things that belonged to him.
"Unfortunately, I also saw the secret."
"Oh?" Bill raised an eyebrow and stepped forward to ask, "Can you tell us your opinion, gentleman?" ”
Leng Mo looked at the picture of the snow-capped mountain girl in front of him, and sneered softly, but there was an innate arrogance.
"It's simple. Just refer to the snow-capped mountains in the background and find the location of the girl in the painting, where the treasure is buried. ”
Bill looked at Leng Mo's gaze with a faint surprise.
"It's incredible, I think so too! This gentleman, I didn't expect us to go together! ”
Xu Xiangsi thought that this man named Bill really saw something, and he could see his reaction, which was really fake.
She couldn't help but wonder if this man was deliberately using cold ink.
Leng Mo took her hand and led her through the crowd.
"Where are you going?"
"Let's talk about it when we go back to our room."
In the hall, a group of people were still meditating and racking their brains around the painting.
Behind the curtain on the second floor, Mo Huairen looked down and smiled gloomily.
Bernhorst, who was nearby, handed him a glass of wine.
"Mr. Mo, tell me, what do you want me to play such a big game of chess with you?"
The wine glass slowly rotated on the five fingertips full of gems, and Mo Huairen's smile deepened.
"I invited so many celebrities from all over the world to gather together, in fact, to hide people's eyes. My purpose is only one man. ”
"Who?"
"The man who led the girl up the stairs, Leng Mo."
"What did you have with him?"
"Holidays?" Mo Huairen sneered, "Between me and him, it's not just a holiday, there is him without me in this world, and there is me without him." ”
"I will do my best to assist you, Mr. Mo."
Bernhorst and Mo Huairen toasted their glasses of wine and left.
Mo Huairen withdrew his gaze from Leng Mo's back, beckoned to an entourage, and his face became serious.
"But you're all set?"
"Boss, everything is ready, and I guarantee that Leng Mo will not come back."
"Good."
Mo Huairen laughed twice wantonly, and his eyes showed the light of victory.
The president of the Chamber of Commerce, Old Man Ji, is gone, and the position of the president is only fought between him and Leng Mo, and he must get rid of him without a trace before the election meeting.
He sent out the invitation with the help of Bernhorst's hand, and watched coldly as Leng Mo fell into the trap he had designed.
He is bound to win the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce.
On the other side, Xu Xiangsi was pulled back to the room by Leng Mo.
"Oops, you let go of me!"
She shook off the man's hand angrily, and her cheeks bulged out, like an angry pufferfish.
The man smiled and asked, "What are you angry about?" ”
"I'm mad at you stupid!"
Xu Xiangsi couldn't help it and immediately complained.
"That Bill is flamboyant, at first glance he is not a serious person, he said that he saw through the secret in the painting, he must have lied to you, you were so easy to be tricked by him?"
The man's deep eyes stared at her, and the bottom of his eyes was silent.
He suddenly reached out and pinched Xu Xiangsi's chin, lifted her little face, and the curvature of the corners of his lips outlined a touch of arrogance.
"Don't use your negative IQ to figure out my mind, I'm not as stupid as you."
Xu Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, and was immediately angry by this man's words.
She just wanted to refute the previous sentence, but the man said it again.
"What I just said is something that most people can think of. The descendants of the Bane family have been studying that painting for so many years, how could they not think of this? If this is the case, the treasure has already been dug up, so why wait until today? ”
Hearing his words, Xu Xiangsi's little face quickly turned red, and she felt ashamed and embarrassed.
The man withdrew his hand, took a slow step, and pushed the window open.
The moonlight poured in, and the cold wind poured in.
Under the moonlight, the snow-capped mountains of the Southern Alps in the distance are shrouded in a cold and mysterious atmosphere.
"Take out the picture, you just took it, right?"
"Okay."
Xu Xiangsi took out his mobile phone, handed the picture of the snowy mountain girl he had just taken in front of the man, and couldn't help asking.
"Did you see that?"
"Absolutely."
The man's gaze was as sharp as an eagle's eye, and he looked at the picture and smiled deeply.
"Most people only see the surface, but I don't. Pay attention to the face of the girl in the painting, what do you see? ”
Xu Xiangsi replied seriously, "She looks very beautiful." ”
The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and his gaze at her was a little hateful.
"Look closely at the mole on her left cheek."
Xu Xiangsi took a closer look, don't say it, it's really like this.
This girl was painted with a beautiful face, as pure and flawless as an angel, but the appearance of this mole was very abrupt.
She still didn't understand, "That'...... What does this mole have to do with the secret of the treasure? ”
