Chapter 7: Killing in the Night
At the feast.
The food is currently surrounded by dancing girls and singers.
The three of them pushed their glasses and exchanged glasses, and from time to time they talked about some interesting things in the sect, and the atmosphere was also very harmonious.
And just like that, time passed quietly.
After he had eaten and drunk, Lei Xiu's face turned red, and he obviously drank too much.
I saw him burping, grabbing the arms of the two of them, and began to complain intermittently.
"Senior Brother Zhou Fan, Senior Brother Qingyu, don't look at me... Belch... What do you want here, it looks like it's imposing. ”
"But let's be honest, if... If there was a choice back then, labor and management would fuck it... Belch... I won't come to such a ghost place, and be the lord of Raushzi! ”
"Xunxian asked, Xunxian asked, go to the goddamn immortal! Fuck it! ”
"Bai Ru! Ji Bochang! And you dogs and men, if it weren't for you, how would I have fallen here! I'm going to you! ”
"Woo... Ah Hua, don't leave me......"
"Forehead......" Seeing that this guy was crying and laughing, he finally started talking nonsense, Zhou Fan and Qing Yu glanced at each other, and they were also a little crying and laughing.
Fortunately, at this time, an old man who looked like a butler walked in in time and interrupted the embarrassing scene.
I saw that he first saluted the two of them, and then said apologetically:
"Two immortal masters, my lord is a little drunk today, if there is anything, please wait for the lord to wake up tomorrow morning."
"The hospitality is not good, please forgive the immortal master."
As he spoke, he stepped forward to help Lei Xiu, and after saluting again, he turned around and left through the side door.
In the process, Lei Xiu's voice still came from time to time.
"Let go of me! I'm not drunk, I can still drink! ”
"Did you dog slave hear it, believe it or not, I cut off your head!"
The voice gradually fades until it disappears.
After a while, two more maids walked into the hall and said respectfully to Zhou Fan and Qing Yu.
"The guest room has been prepared, and the two immortal masters are invited to move."
Glancing at the messy banquet, Zhou Fan shook his head helplessly, knowing that he was afraid that he could only do this tonight.
As for Qing Yu's goods, he had already smirked at this moment, and a pair of eyes couldn't wait to stick directly to the two maids.
A black line flashed on Zhou Fan's forehead, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the goods, so he got up and left.
When he came to the guest room, he ignored the hints of the maid's words, and closed the door in her slightly resentful eyes.
Then he picked up the teapot on the table and poured a few sips with his neck tilted.
The alcohol in my mind suddenly dissipated most of it.
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Thinking that the maid was going and returning, Zhou Fan couldn't help frowning slightly, and stepped forward to open the door through a crack, only to find that there was an unexpected figure standing at the door.
"I said what are you doing here when you're idle?"
"Or is it already done ahead of schedule?"
Looking at the smiling Qing Yu outside the door, Zhou Fan's eyes moved down and said meaningfully.
"You fart! Labour... This road leader starts in at least half a day! ”
"Phew! I was led astray by you, and you really think of me as the kind of person who can't walk when you see a woman? Hearing this, Qing Yu had a smile on his face, obviously a little angry.
"Isn't it?" Zhou Fan said lightly.
"I'm just joking... Do you know how to act... Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you more. ”
"I have something important to discuss with you this time, open the door and let me in."
Qing Yu looked away a little weakly, and stepped forward to push the door into the room.
"If there's anything, just say it here."
However, Zhou Fan was unmoved, and reached out to press the door of the house.
Qing Yu pushed it hard, only to find that the door was as if it was welded to death, and a touch of shock flashed on his face.
"I'll go, what did you kid eat to grow up, why did you work so hard!"
Seeing that his oil and salt were not entering, he had no choice but to compromise at the moment.
looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he lowered his voice and became serious.
"There may be something wrong with Lei Xiu!"
As soon as these words came out, a gleam suddenly flashed in Zhou Fan's eyes.
Seeing that it didn't seem like he was joking, he thought for a moment, and then let go of his hand on the door.
"Come in and talk."
"It would have been better if it had been done earlier." Qing Yu pursed his lips, not surprised by this result, and dodged into the room.
As the door slowly closed, calm soon returned.
……
in the room.
"Whew!"
A special fire fold emits an orange flame and lights up the oil lamp on the tabletop.
Zhou Fan and Qing Yu sat opposite each other, staring at each other, and no one had the intention of speaking.
"Tell me what you've found."
The air was silent for a moment, and Zhou Fan's voice sounded first.
As if he had already guessed that he would ask this question, Qing Yu shrugged his shoulders and did not answer directly, but just took out a letter from his bosom and threw it casually.
"Well, see for yourself, everything you want to know is in there."
Looking at the letter on the table, Zhou Fan's eyes flashed slightly, and he reached out to pick it up.
There's not much in it.
Except for some vague information, all that remains is a sentence deliberately marked at the end of the envelope.
[Lei Xiu, the city lord of Beicheng City, is suspected of secretly cultivating demonic skills, and can be killed on the spot after confirmation. 】
Under the flickering firelight, Zhou Fan's face was uncertain, and he couldn't see the specific expression.
"Is the message accurate?"
"You already have the answer in mind, don't you?" Qing Yu took a sip of the teacup and said unhurriedly.
Zhou Fan lowered his eyes, neither admitted nor denied this, and after thinking for a moment, he threw back the envelope in his hand.
"True or not, this matter has nothing to do with me."
"Besides, with my strength, I guess I can't help you much."
In the final analysis, he only came this time to complete the task of suppressing bandits, and he didn't want to be inexplicably involved in other troubles.
"That's not necessarily, I've always been very confident in my level of looking at people." Qing Yu smiled mysteriously, looking very confident.
"In addition, you said that this matter has nothing to do with you, this sentence is wrong, if I tell you now, the target of your mission this time is also in this city lord's mansion right now?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Fan's expression suddenly fluctuated a little.
But for the guy in front of him, he still didn't believe it.
Qing Yu also seemed to see what he was thinking, spread his hands, and said with an innocent face:
"Please, can't you trust me a little more?"
"Don't worry, the reason why I'm telling you this is just to see you pleasing to the eye, and you should have a good fate."
Regarding Qing Yu's explanation, Zhou Fan was noncommittal, but he did not continue to dwell on it.
"So what are you going to do next?"
Qing Yu shook his head when he heard this, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face again.
"Don't worry, the general trend of the world is up and down, and now you and I are in the game, nothing more than ......"
"Speak human words!" Zhou Fan's face was expressionless.
"Ahem......"
Qing Yu's tone froze, and he coughed lightly before he said helplessly:
"The evidence is insufficient now, so what should I do, just wait until the other party shows his feet!"
