Chapter 8: Oiran Reception

Dali Temple, Wind and Thunder Hall.

He Fei rubbed his eyebrows and looked at the information summarized from the Peony Lou bloody case, the more he looked at it, the more worried he became, not how many people died in the case, he had handled the big case of slaughtering hundreds of people, and he was worried that this murderer did not leave any traces, as if these people were originally bitten to death by poisonous snakes.

"Is it possible?" Tsurufei asked himself.

The answer is absolutely impossible, although these people were ostensibly bitten to death by poisonous snakes, there must be a murderer behind the scenes, otherwise, why did only the people from the Peony Building die, but the residents next to them were not injured at all, and within a radius of 100 meters, the shadow of a snake could not be found. These snakes, like an army, are well organized, with a clear division of labor, and an orderly advance and retreat.

"My lord, how do you think this matter should be handled, after all, so many people have died, and the results can't be found, so I can't explain it to the above, otherwise I will write the snake plague, what do you think?"

"Snake plague? The scope of this snake plague is too concentrated, is it limited to the Peony Tower? Are you all fools when you are the adults above?" He Fei reprimanded coldly.

"But there is really no clue at all, how to investigate this case, there is no clue. ”

He Fei didn't answer his subordinates' questions, he frowned and read the file from beginning to end. Suddenly, a detail caught his attention, "In addition to the boss and his buddies, the people who checked in at the Peony Building last night had twenty-eight people written in the account book, why are there only twenty-five corpses in this room? There should be three more people in the inn?"

"Tell your lord, according to the accounts of the diners last night and the identity of the corpses, there were indeed three more people. One is Qian Shuxiao, the young master of the Qian Mansion, who led a woman from other places to live in the No. 1 room of Tianzi last night, and there is another person named Ye Que, who also came to Luoyang from other places to visit relatives. It's just that later, this Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que left together, and the house money was recorded in Qian Shuxiao's name, and it seemed that he didn't return overnight. ”

"Qian Shuxiao?Ye Que?" He Fei silently recited twice, "What about another woman?"

"I don't know, I asked several diners who dined here last night, and they all said that they hadn't seen her go downstairs, this woman was extremely beautiful, and no one would be mistaken. ”

"Is there a name registered?" asked Hefei.

"No, there is only Qian Shuxiao's name on the housing registration, and the number 'two' is simply marked behind. ”

Fingers knocked on the desk a few times, and He Fei slapped the table and stood up, "Let me check this Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que, I have a hunch that there is something wrong with these two people." ”

"By the way, you just said Qianfu?

"The No. 1 house on Zhuque Street, the Qian Mansion of the richest merchant in Luoyang. ”

"Got it, be careful, don't startle the snake. Also, don't cause unnecessary trouble to Dali Temple, you must find clues to solve the case within three days, and you can't let Yushitai see our jokes. ”

Hefei arranged everything here, Ye Que also woke up from cultivation and absorbed the spiritual power of heaven and earth, which was more refreshing than ordinary people's sleep, and last night's painting demon didn't know how long he had been practicing in this landscape, and the spiritual power gathered was very abundant, if all of them were given to a martial artist, it would almost be enough for him to upgrade by one level.

In addition, Ye Que used the Spirit Stealing Array, and he barely wasted a trace of spiritual power, so overnight, his realm basically stabilized, and Tian Yuan also increased slightly. Deceived the painting demon last night, in the final analysis, it was because there was really not much yuan power that could be mobilized in Ye Que's body, if it was changed to now, why talk nonsense.

Can't be solved with one sword?

Then two swords!

"Bang bang. ”

"Bang bang. ”

A hurried knock on the door resounded through the Qianfu Green Bamboo Garden.

"Is there anyone in there?"

"Got up?"

Such a loud knock on the door came from a woman.

Ye Que, who had just woken up, frowned, "This Qian Mansion is also a wealthy family, why are the maids and maids in the mansion so unruly, does it take so much effort to knock on the door? ”

Ignoring the hurried knock on the door, Ye Que slowly cleaned up his bed, then rolled up the landscape painting scroll on the table and put it in the corner, carefully tidied up his clothes, and then walked over to open the door. At this time, the door was about to be knocked on, and the speed was faster and faster, and the sound was louder and louder.

With a squeak, the door was finally opened, and almost at the same time, a figure pounced into Ye Que's arms.

With a move of his feet, his body subconsciously dodged to the side, and after countless battles, Ye Que, some of the brain's control of the body almost didn't need to be thought about.

"Bang!"

"Ahh

The sound of flesh hitting the ground was accompanied by a scream.

Looking down and taking a closer look, it turned out to be the Qian Mansion lady Qian Shushu who I saved last night, and last night I saw this woman with a dignified appearance, a pen to paint, and an extraordinary temperament. At this time, I sat on the ground with my legs crossed, grinning and rubbing my shoulders vigorously.

With just one glance, Ye Que understood why Qian Shuxiao would categorically say that his sister never touched the pen. Just listen to the fierce knock on the door in the morning, this domineering sitting posture, this grinning temperament, if you don't open the door, you plan to hit it directly, and get rid of a female man. Let Ye Que say, this girl really shouldn't be called Qian Shushu, Qian Shuba is almost the same.

Ye Que looked at Qian Shushu suspiciously, and didn't speak, but the meaning was obvious, "What are you doing here?"

Glancing at Ye Que, Qian Shushu said angrily, "Don't look at it, help me." ”

Saying that, he really stretched out his hand towards Ye Que, not caring at all about the provisions of whether men and women give or receive kisses.

Ye Que won't take her hand, most of the cultivators are perfectionists, and they wiped a handful of dirt on the ground, no matter how delicate they are, they won't take the initiative to help, "Get up by yourself." ”

"If you can get up, I'll use you to help me. Qian Shushu said loudly, "It hurts, didn't you see the fall, I don't know how to say when I open the door, I knock so much, you can't hear it?"

"I'm not deaf. ”

"If you're not deaf, won't you open the door?" Qian Shuhua raised his eyebrows.

Ye Que gently raised his foot and hooked it, and the chair next to the dining table fell firmly in Qian Shushu's hand, which means that you can hold on to the chair and get up, as for why she didn't open the door as she just asked, Ye Que didn't bother to explain.

Whether to use a chair or a hand, Qian Shushu didn't pick it, and climbed up with the chair. As soon as he got up and raised his hand, he patted Ye Que on the shoulder, maybe because the distance was too close, or maybe because Ye Que didn't expect it at all, this slap really made Qian Shushu shoot, "Thank you, I've heard Ah Xiao say what happened last night, you saved me." No wonder during this time, I always feel unenergetic, and my wrist still hurts, it turns out that I was bewitched by a monster, and I was asked to draw day and night, and I can't figure it out because of this monster, Miss Ben ......"

Qian Shushu pointed his fingers and became more and more energetic, but before he finished speaking, he saw Ye Que next to him, and his expression became more and more ugly.

Then he saw the gray slap print left on Ye Que's shoulder, compared it to his own hand, Qian Shushu smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention, I didn't pay attention." ”

While laughing, Qian Shushu said, "I'm here to express my gratitude." ”

"Your brother has already thanked you. ”

"He is him, I am me. ”

"Okay, then thank you. ”

I saw Qian Shuhua sneakily take out a book from the sleeve of his clothes, and solemnly put it in front of Ye Que, "This is the secret book I spent a lot of money to get before, and I was originally going to use it myself, but I heard that you are a master among the masters, so let's use it for you first." ”

"Well, this sincerity is enough. Qian Shuhua said confidently.

Ye Que glanced at the so-called cheats beside him, and immediately turned around and left, without saying a word.

"Hey, don't you even want cheats? Don't call Ye Que at all, it's good to call it Lack of Heart and Eyes. After saying that, Qian Shushu carefully put away the 'cheats' again, "Don't pull it down, Miss Ben is not rare to give it to you, go back and give it to my family Yunhai, he must like it." ”

The moment Qian Shushu put away the 'cheats', he saw that on the yellowed cover, there were four strong and powerful characters written on the cover, "Peerless cheats!"

As for Ye Que, he was really too lazy to take care of this strange lady, "Say that I lack heart and eyes? It's ridiculous, idiots can see that that thing must be a lie, whose secret book has the name of a peerless secret book? It's not a joke!"

Just a few steps out, I met Qian Shuxiao who came in a hurry.

"Sir, you had a good night's rest. Although Qian Shuxiao looked a little hurried, there must be something, but he still greeted Ye Que first.

After thinking about the neurotic Qian calligraphy and painting just now, Ye Que opened his mouth and said, "It's not good." ”

Two words can be regarded as talking to death.

"This ......"

"Say, what's the matter?" Ye Que looked at Qian Shu and smiled uncomfortably.

"The Oiran drinking party will start today, we have to hurry up, the road is a little far, we need to take a boat, and we may have to go a long way. Qian Shu smiled and took out a red invitation card from his arms and handed it to Ye Que.

The light rain in the sky street is as moist as a crisp, and the grass color is close but there is none. It is the most beneficial spring of the year, and it is absolutely better than the smoke and willows in the imperial capital.

Luoyang, the capital of the gods after the spring rain, is beautiful, the Luoshui outside the city is even more rippling, the green trees and red flowers on the shore, Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que sat on a luxurious cruise ship down the river, according to Qian Shuxiao, this Oiran drinking party, the location of each time is different, this time it is on the ironclad dragon boat in the lower reaches of Luoshui.

When Ye Que got on the boat, the gate of the General's Mansion was also opened, Ye Yunhai led a team of people to gallop out of the mansion, he also held a red invitation card in his hand, there was also a boat waiting for him on the shore of Luoshui, and there was a girl standing next to the boat, with a smile and a smile to the bones.

Thousands of miles away in Chang'an City, there is a building, 18 floors high, hang a plaque in front of the building, and write 'picking stars'.

At this time, on the top floor of the eighteenth floor of the star picking, an old man's eyes were red, and there were thirteen copper coins standing in front of him in a daze, "The stars change, the corpse bone mountain, ten thousand demons come out, and the river appears." ”

"Heaven and earth are impermanent, where is the way to live?"
