Chapter Fifty-Six: The Truth Comes Out

"Clear and clear, the heart is in the heart. Look at the South Dipper on the right and the Seven Stars on the left. I can mix the elements, and the heaven and earth will ......"

Jiazi was dressed in a golden Taoist robe, wearing a Taoist crown, holding a wooden sword, standing straight behind the altar with his body pinching the trick in his hand, his eyes slightly closed, and chanting a spell in his mouth.

On the altar, an incense burner is piled with grains, and next to it are four apricot yellow flags painted with wind, thunder and lightning, and in front of the altar is a copper basin filled with water.

Zhou Xingyu, Wang Ye and the others stood around quietly, their eyes fixed on Jiazi who was casting spells.

"Phew! Glare guidance, thousands of miles of tracking! ”

A clear drink sounded, everyone looked at it, only to see Jiazi hand the wooden sword forward, a red light rose, the eyebrow pencil that was adsorbed on the wooden sword flew out of the sword, and shot straight into the copper basin, the red light and the clear water in the basin were excited, and suddenly there was a burst of blasting sound, and bursts of white smoke rose in the copper basin, these smoke floated into the air, under the action of some great force, one by one, and finally formed a vivid picture.

It is a large courtyard with pavilions and pavilions connected to each other, and the figures of the servants in the courtyard are everywhere.

"Whew~ I didn't expect to use the dazzling technique for the first time, but it was successful!"

Looking at the picture in front of him, Jiazi gently wiped the sweat on his forehead, feeling a little happy in his heart.

"Everyone, you have finally lived up to your trust!"

He walked out from behind the altar, walked in front of everyone, and said with his fists clenched, while his eyes also looked at the picture on the copper basin.

"What is this place?"

He was stunned, Wang Ye and Zhou Xingyu also had the same expression, obviously they didn't know where the courtyard shown on the screen was.

But it's normal to think about it, after all, compared to the other people present, the three of them are outsiders, if they don't have something to do, maybe they won't come here for the rest of their lives.

The three of them had no clue, and couldn't help but look at the Jinyang City Lord on the side.

The city lord frowned slightly, and after a while, he said: "Here, I have a little impression, it seems to be somewhere in the east of the city, where is it, the official can't remember it for a while." ”

Although he is the city lord of Jinyang City, almost all the affairs in the city are completed by his subordinates, he just coordinates the overall situation and maintains the normal operation of the city, and he can't leave the city lord's mansion several times a year.

After all, he is very busy, twelve hours a day, except for three hours of rest, most of the time is spent in the city lord's mansion to deal with affairs.

But what can make him feel like it can't be an ordinary courtyard of a rich and noble family.

Seeing that the city lord was not clear, the three of them couldn't help but feel full of regret, Jinyang City is too big, with a permanent population of no less than one million, and the entire Dongcheng District alone has a radius of thirty miles, although there are many five hundred people in the garrison camp, but in such a big place, it is like a drop of water in a water tank, and it is really not easy to gain something.

When everyone was frowning, Lu Zhutou, who had been pondering on the side, suddenly frowned, and shouted: "Isn't this the Wang family's Chengdong Courtyard!" ”

Wang's Villa!

Zhou Xingyu's breathing instantly became short, and a bad premonition rose, and he hurriedly asked, "Lu Hunting!" Which royal family is it? ”

He had a trace of luck in his heart, hoping that the Wang family that the other party said was not the same as the Wang family he thought.

Wang Ye and Jiazi also became nervous.

Lu Zhutou didn't understand why Zhou Xingyu was so nervous, he opened his mouth and said, "Which one else can it be!" Naturally, it is the Wang family of the top ten families, the head of the Wang family is called Wang Wen, this annex is an industry of the Wang family in the east of the city, and it cost 500,000 taels of silver to build this annex, which shocked the city! ”

Broken!

Zhou Xingyu's face was instantly ugly!

I didn't expect that after guarding for so long, the other party still came to the door!

Now it's back to square one.

Hearing Lu Zhutou's words, the city lord of Jinyang City also patted his thigh and said: "Yes, this is the Chengdong Courtyard of the Wang family, I said why is it so familiar, before the ministers of the court came to Jinyang on business, they arranged to live in the Chengdong Courtyard of the Wang family!" ”

After saying that, he found that everyone was a little dull now, and no one spoke, so he couldn't help but be a little confused, and asked, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong with this place? ”

Jiazi said to the city lord and Lu Zhutou with a solemn face: "The two of you may not know that Brother Wang and Brother Zhou went out this time to carry out a mission, and the Wang family is the target of this mission. Ay! Unexpectedly, the real murderer was actually in the Wang family's courtyard. ”

Hearing Jiazi's words, the city lord and Lu Zhutou finally knew why Wang Ye and Zhou Xingyu's faces were so ugly.

"I didn't expect the worst to happen."

"Lord of the City, please send a guide who knows the route to lead the way as soon as possible, and we will rush to the Chengdong Annexes as soon as possible."

After speaking, Wang Ye clasped his fists and saluted at the city lord of Jinyang City.

It was about the tasks of the two of them and the real rich family in the city, and the city lord also knew that the situation was urgent, so he hurriedly nodded and said: "Everyone, the five hundred garrison camp is outside the city lord's mansion, and you can set off at any time, I wish you all success and get rid of this great disaster for Jinyang City, please!" ”

After saying that, he bowed deeply to the crowd.

……

"Tell the general, all the sergeants have arrived at the designated place!"

A soldier dressed in black heavy armor and wearing a long sword knelt down on one knee and said to a bearded man.

The man nodded and said, "Let the brothers stay vigilant, the things we have to deal with this time are very difficult, and they all cheer me up." ”

Hearing the man's words, the soldier couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "General, could it be that the opponent this time is a group of bandits?" ”

Hearing the soldier's words, the man said impatiently: "Why are you asking so much!" Just remember to come with me later. ”

The man didn't want to say more, so the soldier naturally didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly responded: "Obey!" ”

"That's it! Come on! Go down and get ready! ”

He didn't tell the soldiers that their opponent this time was not an ordinary person, or maybe even a human being, because he knew that these words would have little effect other than to cause unnecessary panic.

After sending the soldiers away, the man turned his head to Jiazi on the side and said, "Immortal Master, what should we do next?" ”

Jiazi and the others had been standing aside, and seeing that the other party had been arranged, Jiazi said: "General Lin will trouble you to order your sergeants to try to meet the retreating people in the courtyard as much as possible, and I will arrange with Brother Wang and Brother Zhou to go first to remove the servants in the other courtyard, so as not to accidentally injure the innocent." ”

This is also something that can't be helped, who knows whether it's a human or a ghost, a zombie or a warlock, if it's a zombie, there are so many people left in the courtyard, isn't it just left for the other party to add blood?

In order to be sure, it was inevitable that the many servants in the courtyard should be removed.

The man known as General Lin nodded and said, "When I came, the city lord had already said that this trip would be a matter of listening to the immortal master." ”

Seeing that the other party agreed, Jiazi nodded at Wang Ye.

Soon, Zhou Xingyu brought a man dressed as a servant over.

Jiazi looked at the man in front of him and said, "Ah Xi, presumably Brother Zhou has already told you the situation, whether your son-in-law lives or the hundreds of servants in the courtyard can be safe and sound depends on whether you can succeed." ”

"You bring this talisman seal, remember to give it to your son-in-law, and say that the old lady asked you to give it to him. And this, after you have notified the people in the other courtyard, you will ring it. Remember, you have to be fast! ”

Jiazi wrapped the talisman seal in a bag and handed it to Ah Xi, and at the same time handed over something like a bamboo tube, and under the bamboo tube was a thin hemp rope.

Unexpectedly, I haven't seen you for a few days, Gongzi actually caused this kind of disaster, Ah Xi also knew that the situation was critical, and immediately took the things handed over by Jiazi, and said solemnly: "Immortal Master, don't worry, I will complete your orders!" ”

With that, he turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

In fact, if it were possible, Zhou Xingyu and the others would not let Ah Xi take the risk, but the real murderer had lived in the courtyard for too long, and he knew everything about the personnel in the courtyard.

At the moment, this task can only be completed by Ah Xi.

When he walked in, Wang Wenzheng was sitting in front of the chessboard, holding his head with one hand, looking haggard, with obvious dark circles on his face, his entire cheeks were sunken, and the skull wrapped under the skin could be faintly seen, and the original black and shiny hair was as dry as a weed.

Looking at Wang Wen's description of the withered appearance, Ah Xi couldn't help but feel a little worried, but this was not the time to greet him.

Ah Xi stood for a long time, and then Wang Wen raised a little spirit, and said in a hoarse tone: "Ah Xi, what are you doing here?" ”

He stepped forward and said respectfully to Wang Wen: "Childe, the old lady is worried that Childe wants to buy books and has not enough money, so I will send some silver tickets to Childe, and ask Childe to look at it." ”

Hearing that it was sent by his mother, Wang Wen immediately took the money bag in Ah Xi's hand with a strong spirit, he opened it and looked at it, and after finding that it was indeed a silver ticket, he put the money bag away and put it in his sleeve, then nodded and said, "Okay, you go down first." ”

Seeing Wang Wen's casual movements, Ah Xi had no choice but to bite the bullet and say again: "Son, the old lady instructed that the wealth should not be exposed, and the amount is not small, so let the son take care of it." ”

It's only a few hundred taels of silver, which is not much!

Although he had doubts in his heart, since it was his mother who said it, Wang Wen could only do it.

He took the bag out of his sleeve, put it in his arms, and said impatiently to Ah Xi, "Okay, now you can go!" ”

Wang Wen waved his hand casually.

Ah Xi saw Wang Wen put the bag in his arms, and he was also relieved, he bowed slightly, turned around and walked towards the door.

As soon as Ah Xi left, in the curtain behind him, a beautiful woman walked out of it, it was Xue Ji.

She walked straight to the edge of the chessboard and sat down, and asked Wang Wen, "Husband, what's wrong?" ”

Wang Wen opened his mouth and said: "My mother is worried that my study expenses are too great, so I sent someone to send some silver, madam, I don't know what's going on recently, and my husband's health is getting worse and worse." Hey, I'm very sleepy, so I'll go and lie down in the room for a while. ”

Looking at Wang Wen's distant figure, Xue Ji smiled slightly, staring at the white son on the chessboard, she picked up a black child and fell, the black child immediately surrounded the white child, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

Leaving the backyard, Ah Xi quickly came to the housekeeper's house in the courtyard, and after a detailed conversation, with the help of the housekeeper, the two walked around the courtyard carefully, and soon gathered everyone in the courtyard in the front hall.

Under the leadership of the two, everyone slowly left the courtyard and disappeared into the night.

Looking at the empty courtyard, Ah Xi's face showed a relaxed look, and he took out the bamboo tube that Jiazi had given him before from his arms, and gently pulled the twine under the bamboo tube.

"Bang!"

A beam of sparks rushed out of the bamboo tube and flew into the sky to explode, forming a beautiful pattern.
