Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Man Goes to the Empty Building
The aroma dissipated after Jiang Ran opened his eyes.
Jiang Ran couldn't tell whether it was the afterglow of a dream, or if there was really someone who had stayed in this room.
He stared at the ceiling above him for a moment.
I feel a little ashamed.
I think I'm a little funny again.
Just listening to Tang Huayi's nonsense a few words, he actually had that strange dream.
He shook his head, rolled over, and frowned slightly as he turned his head to look out the door.
There was no one outside the door...... When Tang Huayi brought himself here yesterday, it was obvious that there was a maid.
How could this be...... Not a single one?
I got up and opened the door and came into the courtyard.
The old trees in the yard are still standing quietly.
Jiang Ran looked at the tree, shook his head again, opened the courtyard door and walked out.
Along the way, you will pass through the garden pavilion promenade......
However, the more he walked, the more ugly Jiang Ran's face became.
Suddenly, he stepped on nine steps and flew into the room, and the entire Tang family was in full view of him.
No one!
There is no one anywhere!
Tang Yuanwai, Mrs. Tang, Tang Huayi, Sun Fu, Xiaren, maid, martial artist of the nursing home.
All the people disappeared overnight, and the whole mansion was empty!
Jiang Ran couldn't believe it, the Tang family had a big business, how could it be that the building was empty overnight?
There has never been such a moment that makes Jiang Ran so confused.
After all...... He just came to stay for one night, and when he woke up, Tang's house was empty!
This, where does this make sense?
There are always strange things on the rivers and lakes, and when they talk about teahouses and taverns, they are often laughed at.
But it couldn't be more weird than now, right?
He walked all the way, searched all the way, and finally came to the main hall.
The door to the main hall opened, and he stepped into it, and when he saw that there was no one, he was about to leave.
But out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something.
I immediately looked back and saw that it was a painting.
It was placed on the table next to the Lord's seat.
He slowly came to the painting.
On the painting, it is a small courtyard.
The bright moon hangs high, and there is a tree in the courtyard under the moon.
The shade of the trees is luxuriant, shading the starlight.
And under the tree, a woman in white wearing a thin veil is stroking the harp......
In front of the woman, there was also a man standing, quietly admiring.
This painting, with delicate and soft brushstrokes, seems to come from the hands of a woman, with skillful techniques and lifelike characters.
It's a rare masterpiece.
But Jiang Ran's face was extremely strange.
“…… Not a dream. ”
He muttered to himself, the content of this painting is the same dream he had last night.
But if it was really a dream, how could it be drawn like this?
What is the purpose of this painting staying here today?
Tell yourself...... Everything last night, was it true?
But even if it's true, where did the people of the Tang family go?
Can't it be, did you run away?
But the question is...... People take advantage of it and run.
And if you take 10,000 steps back, even if something really happened yesterday, it doesn't seem that you are the one who suffers.
What do they run?
Jiang Ran frowned, picked up the painting, and put it aside.
He sat on the Taishi chair and began to pick up and crumple everything that happened after coming to the Tang Mansion yesterday and thought about it little by little.
When he thought about it, he realized.
Wrong......
Something is wrong everywhere!
When he first met Tang Yuanwai, how did he recognize himself?
Have you seen yourself in the past?
Or did the old drunkard paint a portrait of him?
But when will the old drunkard be able to draw?
If it was because Jiang Ran misunderstood at the time, he didn't think about it.
But Tang Huayi called his brother-in-law, why didn't he think about it carefully, how did she recognize herself?
Once you have this kind of thinking, you can also think about the fact that old drunkards can't draw, right?
But why, I was like lard and I didn't think about it from beginning to end?
After returning to Tang's house, Tang Yuanwai asked Tang Huayi to eat alone with him.
A girl who has just been kidnapped by gangsters and rescued again.
Her performance was indifferently a little excessive.
Even if she doesn't mention this, she is a yellow flower girl, and she is a brother-in-law who meets her for the first time and only has a verbal agreement.
How could Tang Yuanwai let her entertain him?
And when I had dinner with Tang Huayi after that, it was even more strange and strange.
No matter what the girl said or did, he felt that she was cute and cute, and he couldn't help but have a lot of good feelings in his heart.
This is by no means Jiang Ran's personality.
But at that time...... Why didn't you notice it?
Jiang Ran knocked lightly on the door of his head.
Although I don't know how the people of the Tang family did it.
But now that I think about it, I was on the way!
It's just that...... It's weird, but it's also weird.
Plotting and plotting, but if there is a plan, there will be a plan.
If this Tang family is really acting as a family and deceiving themselves...... So what do they want to do with themselves?
How soon is his life? Figure his nine dead veins?
"It's not like it's hungry for my body, is it?"
Jiang Ran was almost amused by his own thought, and shook his head slightly:
"There is no such possibility.
"But if so, what did they get out of me?"
Then Jiang Ran thought of the old drunkard's letter.
The letter was in the handwriting of an old drunkard.
Even the tone is exactly the same.
This point cannot be faked by others.
It is precisely because of this that Jiang Ran really does not have the slightest doubt about the Tang family.
All I think about is how to get rid of my family.
Who would have thought that the family business that the old drunkard was looking for was not reliable in itself......
Could the old crook have been deceived by another group of crooks?
When Jiang Ran thought of this, he was a little worried about this old drunkard.
If the belief is true, then the old drunkard may really have left the Tang family and even left Cangzhou Mansion as Tang Yuanwai said.
But if this letter is also problematic......
Where is the old drunkard now?
Jiang Ran didn't care about what the Tang family was up to.
Now why did it suddenly run clean overnight?
But he couldn't help but think about the life of the old drunkard.
If you continue to stay here, you won't gain anything.
After all, people are determined to leave, how can they leave clues for Jiang Ran to find?
"However, the Tang family has been in Cangzhou Mansion for so many years, there should always be traces to follow."
Thinking of this, he didn't stop, turned around and left.
I just walked to the door of the main hall, and looked at the painting again.
Moaned slightly, still didn't take it, turned around, and walked away without looking back.
And not long after Jiang Ran left, a slender jade hand reached out from one side and held the painting in his palm.
The white clothes flew away, and a sigh sounded like nothing, but it dissipated like a cloud......
……
……
The gate of the Tang Mansion was locked, and Jiang Ran turned out from one side of the wall.
As soon as I walked out onto the street, before I could tell the direction, I heard someone talking about it.
"Miserable...... The Qinghe Gang is also one of the three major gangs in Cangzhou Mansion.
"How did this happen overnight, and it was all over the place?"
Jiang Ran's footsteps were involuntarily stunned.
Green River Gang ...... Destroyed by someone??
"Who's to say it isn't? I heard that it was very miserable, Fan Yumou, and a few hall masters, by the way, and the eldest son Fan Jiwu.
"All of them are dead, bleeding one by one, and the death is terrible."
Jiang Ran listened silently, slowly turned his head, and looked at the gate of the dead Tang Mansion.
His eyes turned again, but he was suddenly stunned again.
The noodle stall across the street from Tangfu, and the chattering noodle stall owner...... Where did it go?
