Chapter 2 Mantuo Villa
There was nothing to do all the way, and Zhao Mingyuan soon came to the shore of Taihu Lake, in the city of Suzhou.
Zhao Mingyuan knew that the water surface of Taihu Lake was vast, and all of them were traveled by waterways.
Whether it is the Murong family's Yanziwu Shenhezhuang or the Wang family's Mantuo Villa, they are just small islands in Taihu Lake.
If there is no guide from someone who is familiar with the path, it is an exaggeration to say that you will be looking for ten or eight years, but it is indeed not easy to find the right place.
Moreover, whether it is the Murong family or the Wang family, their identities are hidden, and ordinary people don't know who they really are. Even on the shore of Taihu Lake, many people have never even heard of Shenhezhuang, so how to find it.
Zhao Mingyuan naturally wouldn't break in. Although he was not ignorant of water, he would not go recklessly, so he was ready to inquire about the situation first.
If you want to inquire about the news, you naturally have to find the head snake, and the best choice is naturally the beggar gang.
Zhao Mingyuan wandered around the city of Suzhou, and soon targeted a beggar on the side of the street.
The beggar looked to be about thirty or forty years old, with many patches on his body, and was lying on the corner of the street basking in the sun.
It's just that what attracted Zhao Mingyuan was the three peculiar pockets he was carrying behind him. It seems that this is still the three bags of disciples of the beggar gang.
The three bags of disciples are already considered the backbone of the rudder, so they must know a lot of things.
Zhao Mingyuan had already noticed that he had martial arts, presumably even if he didn't know about Mantuo Villa, he should know the location of Shenhezhuang.
Zhao Mingyuan put a silver ingot in front of him and said, "This friend, I want to inquire about something. ”
Looking at the silver in front of him, the beggar who was still lazily basking in the sun immediately came to his senses, and swept Zhao Mingyuan up and down with a greedy gaze, seeing that he was dressed in gorgeous clothes, the beggar's eyes became brighter and brighter, until he saw the sword on Zhao Mingyuan's waist, his eyes narrowed a little. It's just that the ornate decoration on the sword has dazzled his mind.
I only heard the beggar say: "You can ask what you want, but this person comes and goes, so it's not very convenient." ”
Zhao Mingyuan had realized something, but could he be afraid? Anyway, it would not be himself who suffered, so he followed the beggar to a secluded place.
Without waiting for the beggar to make a move, Zhao Mingyuan glanced at him. With just a glance, under the divine effect of the Great Law of Hooking the Soul and Soul, this beggar had already said all his things like a bamboo tube pouring beans. Zhao Mingyuan asked slightly, and it was already clear if he wanted to know the matter.
Sure enough, whether it is Shenhezhuang or Mantuo Villa, their positions are in the hands of the beggars.
After all, no matter how secretive the Murong family and the Wang family are, they still need to purchase all kinds of daily necessities, and it is naturally difficult to hide from the beggars anymore.
Through this beggar, Zhao Mingyuan already knew where to find the boatman and take him into Mantuo Villa.
"In that case, you can die." Zhao Mingyuan said coldly.
"Yes. The villain dies now. The beggar choked himself by the throat with both hands and strangled himself to death.
The horror of this soul-hooking Dafa can also be seen.
It's just that although this martial art is terrifying, Zhao Mingyuan is not afraid that he will ask about this beggar's news, or the news of this kind of martial arts will come out, of course, he doesn't want to kill this beggar because of this.
Rather, the beggar had just talked too much and told him some disgusting things he had done, and then he would have to die.
Zhao Mingyuan is naturally not a saint, and he doesn't like to punish evil and promote good. It's just that since the crime is in your own hands, it is also your own thing to do it.
When he came to the place that the beggar said, Zhao Mingyuan realized that it was not the boatman who could take him to Mantuo Villa, but the boatwoman, a teenage girl.
Come to think of it. If there are really men going up to Mantuo Villa, they have all become flower fertilizer, how can they let the boatman go up?
In this way, the little girl still refused to take Zhao Mingyuan.
It's not that Zhao Mingyuan doesn't have enough silver, but that any stranger, especially a man, if he is close to Mantuo Villa, will be buried to make fertilizer.
Even a boat lady like her who leads people there will be trouble, maybe her hands will be cut off?
In short, Mantuo Villa has long been a forbidden place that cannot be approached in the mouths of these nearby boatmen. The reason why they know there is because they can't go there, and everyone doesn't dare to approach the forbidden place by word of mouth.
Therefore, no matter how much money Zhao Mingyuan paid, the little girl refused to agree.
Helpless, Zhao Mingyuan had no choice but to sacrifice the Dafa of Soul Hooking and Heart-Stirring again. Fortunately, it only changed the little girl's mind a little, and it would not be a big deal.
However, the reputation of this Mantuo Villa is indeed powerful. This greatly reduced Zhao Mingyuan's impression of that Mrs. Wang, that is, Li Qingluo.
Originally, seeing that the jade statue had such a look, Li Qingluo's appearance was still very good. After all, what is described in the book is only what is written in the book. It wasn't until I really heard about the cruel deeds in the neighborhood that I really understood that she was indeed famous in this regard.
Since he is here, Zhao Mingyuan will definitely stop such a thing.
Riding the little girl's boat, along some invisible waterway, gradually sailed to Mantuo Villa.
In Zhao Mingyuan's view, the lotus leaves and reeds in this lake are exactly the same, and they are unpredictable with a gust of wind blowing. But in the eyes of this little girl, it is full of imprints, road signs, and criss-crossing waterways.
Even if this little girl didn't hide it from Zhao Mingyuan and pointed out every road sign, in Zhao Mingyuan's opinion, there was no difference.
Even if Zhao Mingyuan had a simple compass in his storage ring, it was still difficult to make out the road in this chessboard-like criss-crossing waterway.
It seems that life is full of learning.
I couldn't learn it for a while, and Zhao Mingyuan didn't force it.
This Taihu Lake is definitely not small, this little girl paddled for almost a long time, and they saw a cluster of flowers and trees at the water's edge from a distance, reflecting the water surface, bright as clouds.
Zhao Mingyuan has also seen a lot in Dali, and he can recognize that it is the camellia of Dali, also known as jade tea, and there is also a name called mandala flower. Presumably that is Mantuo Villa.
Sure enough, the little girl rowed her wooden paddle and headed for the camellia tree.
As the shore gets closer and closer, at a glance, it is the red and white colorful camellias.
The little girl sailed the boat on the shore, and said with fear in her eyes: "Childe, just take a look around here, it's better not to go ashore." Otherwise, if you are discovered, you will really be caught. ”
Seeing that this little girl was so kind, Zhao Mingyuan was not stingy, left two silver ingots, and jumped ashore. Let her leave quickly, don't tell anyone about it, and just act as if nothing happened.
Seeing that this little girl still had something to say, Zhao Mingyuan simply used the Soul Hooking Dafa again to make her leave, and forgot about it. She only remembered that she had picked up a guest and gave her some money.
This little girl is too verbose, but knowing too much is really not a good thing.
The shore is full of camellia trees, Zhao Mingyuan walked forward along the path between the flowers and trees, and slowly saw the pavilions.
Zhao Mingyuan didn't distinguish one by one, but flew directly towards the tallest building.
On the top of this attic, there is a woman admiring the flowers in front of the window, and the natural appreciation is the camellia, which is also the mandala flower.
Zhao Mingyuan entered through the window and startled her, and then raised his head.
Zhao Mingyuan immediately recognized that this was Li Qingluo. After all, her appearance is too similar to that jade statue, no, it should be said that it is exactly the same, but the temperament is slightly different.
Should it be said that their Li family's genes are too strong? For three generations in a row, there is not much difference in appearance.
"Who are you?" Li Qingluo saw a man break into her room, she was not afraid at all, but was very angry, and didn't seem to care if this man would be bad for her.
This made Zhao Mingyuan very funny. Probably she is used to showing off her martial arts in this Taihu Lake area, and she hasn't met any masters, right?
Still, let's go with the plan first.
Zhao Mingyuan said hesitantly: "This lady must be named Li Qingluo, right?" ”
"Who the hell is you?"
At this moment, Li Qingluo began to be a little surprised.
Not many people know this name. Most of the people in Mantuo Villa only know that she is Mrs. Wang, at most they know her surname Li, and there are definitely not many people who know her name.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Under Zhao Mingyuan, he is a disciple of the Freedom Sect......"
Before he could continue, Li Qingluo shouted directly, "Get out!" ”
Zhao Mingyuan didn't know whether she was relying on her father or the head of the Loose Sect, thinking that Zhao Mingyuan didn't dare to do anything to her; Or because her parents abandoned her, so she hated the free-spirited faction very much; Or, maybe she's usually so arrogant.
In short, since she has this attitude, Zhao Mingyuan will not get used to her, so he said directly: "I am here for those books in the blessed land of Lang Huan." ”
At this time, Li Qingluo's successive gaffes and yells have attracted the attention of the people around her. Soon there was a knock at the door, and someone asked, "Madame, do you need a slave to come in and serve?" ”
Li Qingluo said directly: "Come in, chop him into meat sauce for me, and make him into flower fertilizer." ”
Immediately, the door opened, and several old women came in, holding weapons and rushing towards Zhao Mingyuan.
Thinking that he might have to live here for a while, Zhao Mingyuan didn't spare his hand in order to reduce trouble in the future.
I saw Zhao Mingyuan stepping on Ling Bo's slight steps, allowing a few old women to wield their swords whirring, and they couldn't hurt him in the slightest, and they were always flashed by Zhao Mingyuan by a fraction of a second.
And Zhao Mingyuan walked between several people, punched and slapped at will, and all of them were knocked to the ground, and after a while, he fell to the ground.
After knocking everyone down one by one, Zhao Mingyuan came to Li Qingluo again.
Li Qingluo's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe that the few masters in her family who had always been invincible had not worked, but she said, "Ling Bo Weibu? It turns out that you are really a disciple of the Freedom Sect. ”
Zhao Mingyuan waved his fist in front of her and said with a smile: "Mrs. Wang, don't change the topic. You won't forget what happened just now, will you? ”
