Chapter 233: The Jade Seal of the Kingdom (2)
Lian Chengbi walked back disappointed, his face very ugly.
"Don't rush, there will be results. I gently advised her.
"I just...... I was so impatient that I knew it was just an illusion. Mr. Xia, I have a request, which may be very abrupt, but these words are held in my heart, and I don't vomit or feel unhappy, can you give me a minute to express my heart?" she asked.
I don't have to say it, just by looking at her eyes, I know what she's going to say.
I shook my head lightly: "Miss Lian, I have a deep relationship, and some words will be said when you really know me, so that both parties will appear more sincere." ”
If she wants to speak, she must ask me to join and assist her in controlling the Qin King Society.
Obviously, in the state of decay of the Qin Wanghui's internal and external troubles, I want to provoke the big beam, and I will have an unclear relationship with Lian Chengbi in the future, not only in the powerful position, but also in the relationship between men and women.
It's another mess, and I don't want to get into it until I see it clearly.
In other words, even if the observation is clear, I am likely to refuse to enter the game, because I already have Tang Wan.
"The jade seal is very important to us. Lian Chengbi said.
I nodded, understanding her feelings.
From the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the change of dynasties in feudal society was chaotic, and the princes and vassal kings and the common people at that time valued the jade seal of the country the most. At least now I know that the King of Qin will take the jade seal of the country very seriously. King Qin will be like this, and King Zhao will be the same.
"Let's go back. I said.
This trip was fruitless, and although he saw Yan Fohai, he couldn't get any facts out of his mouth. He is not a madman, but a master with superior wisdom to ordinary people. However, Lian Chengbi didn't want to leave, because she felt as if she had seen the shadow of the heirloom jade seal. In other words, she is too eager and psychologically stressed, and she can't afford any disappointment and failure.
"Go back, it's impossible for the jade seal of the country to be here. Even if you wait, Yan Fohai will not be able to obediently. Let's go back first, and think about it in the long run. I said.
The tears in Lian Chengbi's eyes gradually rippled, and finally he couldn't help it, and two lines of tears fell.
"Go back, I'll help you figure it out. That's all I can do to persuade her.
Lian Chengbi finally nodded and walked out after me. Now I know that I'm the bait. Yan Fohai used me to lure the ghost Bodhisattva and Mr. Mo to be fooled. In turn, the ghost bodhisattva and Mr. Mo used me to lure the Buddha into the sea. The focus of all the competition is in the wild lake inside the villa.
I vividly remember the terrifying mouth that appeared in the wild lake, and if the Ghost Bodhisattva had a treasure, he would definitely hide it in the safest place, which was the core of the Devouring Technique's defense.
Walking out of the cellar, there was already a team of people waiting outside.
Lian Chengbi asked, "Do you want to interrogate Wen Peony first?"
I shook my head: "Don't startle the snake, it's not the time yet." ”
Lian Chengbi became anxious: "Mr. Xia, if I make any suggestions, you can't say it's okay, but you can't come up with anything new." If we cooperate, we should all be open and honest, shouldn't we? You keep all the secrets in your heart, how can I tell my people? This time, you have to tell me what to do next?"
That team is loaded with guns and ammunition, full of energy, and should have good combat effectiveness. However, it is not yet the time for the final battle, and I hope that Lianchengbi can still recuperate, guard against arrogance and rashness, and prepare for the final battle.
"Let them protect you well, and I'll go talk to Wen Peony. I said.
Lian Chengbi's face softened a little, and nodded: "Okay." ”
We walked outside the greenhouse, and everyone automatically followed. The sun was dazzling outside, and I and Liancheng Wall built a pergola at the same time to cover our eyes.
"Safety comes first. I said, "There must be good snipers among the enemy, so let the bodyguards have a good eye and protect you." ”
"My current status in the Qin King Society is not high enough, and I basically do not belong to the enemy's assassination target. Originally, Yan Fohai was often assassinated and attacked, but there was no danger. Lian Chengbi said.
"The assassins are all from the Ghost Bodhisattva, right?" I asked.
She shook her head: "These things, Yan Fohai will report them directly to my father." As his daughter, I am only responsible for my own affairs, and I will never interfere in the affairs of foreign ministers. ”
"Go find Gongzi Qin. I commanded her.
All I saw in my fantasies was the soul of Qin Gongzi, and if he was still alive, I would be able to find out his specific location.
"But he hasn't been seen for a long time, and we can't find him. Lian Chengbi replied.
"Ask your subordinates, list all the locations of activities along the Buddha Sea, and search carefully, you will definitely be able to find traces of Qin Gongzi. You must find him, or he will most likely be under the trap of the Nightmare Infantile in a short period of time. "I didn't dare to say it too clearly, lest Liancheng be worried.
It is foreseeable that Qin Gongzi has fallen into the threat of the Soul Restraint Technique. If I don't save him, he will die without a place to bury.
Lian Chengbi immediately ordered: "Transfer all the people who follow Mr. Yan and Gongzi Qin back and make a record one by one." I must know where they have been every step in seventy-two hours. ”
After leaving the greenhouse, I said goodbye to Lianchengbi and walked to the top of the mountain. Originally, Lian Chengbi wanted to drive me, but I refused. I want to be quiet, think on my feet, and figure out the key tricks.
The asphalt road leading to the top of the hill is flanked by dense woods and flowers arranged in the middle of the road, and the vegetation is lush and lush.
Lian Chengbi had told me before that the group of blade parties sent by King Zhao to intercept her had been corrected on the spot, and even the corpses had been disposed of cleanly. So, the road from the farm to the hilltop café is already very safe.
I walked alone, picking a few wild flowers and kneading them on my fingertips. Jianghu people are keen on power, just like butterflies like wild flowers, and small fish chase fish and insects. This is human nature, and no one dares to deny it. Even Lian Chengbi may have a mental intention to seize more power.
I am a little different from them, because I know my future very well, and I will never do anything that dishonors the Xia clan. If you give me that knife, combined with the Shenzhou Nine Swords Knife Spectrum, I will definitely find my own way on the rivers and lakes.
The beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests is intoxicating, maybe everyone who comes here should forget the things on the rivers and lakes, steal half a day of leisure, no worries, and be a true self.
In all fairness, the tranquility of the old house on Qushuiting Street has been broken by the battle between the rivers and lakes, and the turmoil is not endless, and the waves are everywhere.
The old neighbors were not from the rivers and lakes, and they didn't know anything about it, but I vaguely felt that it was time for me to leave the old mansion.
A man moves to live, and a tree moves to die. Only by leaving can we jump out of the past and achieve a new self in the future.
I froze, flicking the remnants of my fingertips away, a little surprised by my decision.
In the past, I always felt that I had only one home in Jinan, which was the old house. Even if you have money and buy a new house in another part of Jinan City, you will not give up the old house. At that time, I felt like a tree, and the roots of the tree were rooted in the yard of the old house, and it was impossible to move it at will.
"I'm not a tree, I'm a summer stone. I murmured to a plane tree as thick as two people hugging each other on the side of the road.
As soon as this sentence came out, my whole person seemed to transform in an instant.
Indeed, a person must treat himself as a "person" in order to be at home and uninhibited. People are alive, and people's lives should also be alive, not stagnant.
On the contrary, if a person always sees himself as a tree, he will first trap himself mentally, and in addition to the terrible words of people and the difficulties of society, it will become more and more difficult in the end.
It is an eternal truth that when thinking changes, people will change.
I figured this out, and my body and mind were relaxed, and my feet became extremely light.
Rounding a sharp bend, the café is already in view.
Lian Chengbi said that Wen Peony was there, and he didn't bring other subordinates with him.
I quickened my pace and quickly approached the café.
Strangely, the café was deserted outside, and there wasn't even a car. Looking through the glass window, there was not a single table of guests in the lobby, and all the seats were empty. There was no one at the desk either.
"That's weird, where have all the people gone?" I muttered to myself, surprised.
Although the business of the café is not good, at least a third of the customers can be said to be able to speak at this time.
I pushed open the side door of the café and walked in, all the way to the service desk. Now I can see clearly, although there are no guests in the seats, there are still coffee cups on many tables, and the coffee in the cups is still steaming.
There was no one at the desk, but the screen of the cash register was on, indicating that the cashier had just left. The coffee on the other tables also indicated that there were still a lot of guests here a few minutes ago, but in the end, I don't know what happened, and the guests and waiters left together.
"Mysterious disappearances. I shook my head and smiled wryly.
Things are really strange, one after the other. I walked to the back of the kitchen and pushed the door in. The situation here is also very bad, with all kinds of food, soups, and drinks all over the table, and there is no one in sight.
There have been such mysterious disappearances in history, but I never imagined that one day it would happen alive in front of my eyes.
I raised my anger and shouted, "Mr. Wen, Mr. Wen, are you here?"
No one answered me, and there was only a deathly silence all around.
This scene is really absurd, in broad daylight, there was a group disappearance, and this happened precisely on the territory of the Qin Wanghui. If I hadn't had any suspicion of Wen Peony, I might have wanted to see him the most at this moment, and the two of us could help each other investigate the truth of this strange incident. However, Wen Peony is my biggest suspicion at the moment.
"Ahem......" A low cough sounded, and Wen Peony walked in through the trash door at the end of the kitchen.
The door led to a garbage bin dozens of meters away, and very few people entered and exited through that door, except for the assistant chef.
Minghu is goodbye, and I have never looked at him seriously.
At the moment, he is wearing a very old jacket with tonal cargo pants and sneakers underneath. This dress is like a cleaner who carries garbage, not the famous Jinzhong killer Wen Peony.
His face was also a horribly grayish white, like that of a patient suffering from chronic malnutrition and insomnia.
I stared at him coldly and didn't take the initiative to speak.
"Is that you? yourself?" he asked.
"Where have you been?" I asked.
"I don't know, probably ...... The customers are gone, and the clerks are off duty......" he replied ambiguously.
I found him to be in a strange way of standing. Stand on the ground with your feet in a figure-of-eight posture and your legs slightly bent, like an oval "O" shape. This kind of standing posture with looped legs is usually only seen in middle-aged Japanese men, and it is definitely not the case with Chinese men.
"Where did you just go?" I asked again.
"I went around to take a look, and Miss Lian told me that if there was an enemy intrusion, I would never tolerate the adulterer. He replied.
Obviously, he is different from the previous Wen Peony.
In the past, Wen Peony was upright and upright, hated the Japanese, and was incompatible.
Now, he has lost that momentum, and has instead added all kinds of obscenity that only Japanese men have.
"How's it going?" I asked.
"Nice, quiet outside. The fish in the creek are also plump and free of any pollution. So I grabbed two and came back, so I could stew fish soup and drink it. He stretched out his right hand, which had been lying behind his back, and pinched two one-foot-long white-scaled fish in his palm.
According to the habits of the Chinese, catching fish with bare hands is extremely uncomfortable, and when you get to the kitchen, you will definitely put the fish in the basin first, and will not pinch it in your hands all the time. Unless he's a fisherman and he's used to working with fish with his bare hands.
Wen Peony is from Jinzhong, and there are not many opportunities to deal directly with fish. If he was a normal person, he would definitely not do it.
I took a step back, approached the knife holder, and with a glance, I took aim at a bone cleaver.
In the Nine Swords of Shenzhou, the Nine Ways Knife Techniques are all heavy, upright, grandiose, and atmospheric. So in my opinion, a heavy knife can especially interpret such a knife intent.
In the mountains and wilderness, if you can't kill the enemy alone, you will inevitably be killed by the enemy. This time, the time has come for me to live or die.
"Good fish. I said lightly.
"Everyone is a fish, and if you want to be something else, you have to have special skills. He placed the fish on the cutting board on one side, wiped it with his right hand, and held the scale scraper on the side of the cutting board.
"Who the hell are you?" I asked immediately.
He didn't continue to pretend, but laughed sharply: "Who am I? Who am I? There are fish in the East China Sea, and there are thousands of fish, and who can name them one by one? Don't ask me who I am, I'm just a fish, a fish swimming out of the palace......
The word "palace" is very difficult to understand, which makes me stunned.
With a thud, the half-foot-long scaling knife spun around his fingertips, shining with cold light, turning into a murderous and awe-inspiring knife ball.
