Chapter 7: A Storm Rises in the Smoke and Rain Building

[Beautiful woman visits the bamboo secluded, and the river boat is seen in the building]

The night was dark, and a full moon hung high, sprinkling silver light.

Approaching midnight, the brightly lit Yanyu Building gradually quieted down. The mountain stream tinkles, and the occasional partridge chirps.

Tianxiang Pavilion, the candle flame is shaking.

Hua Xie Yu stood in front of the table, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she thought quietly.

Two handsome-looking maids were waiting on the side, it was Lian Xiang'er and Lian Fang'er during the day.

Yanyulou is mainly engaged in food, tea tasting, music and dance. The drinks that are usually needed are provided by the Zuixian Building, which is built on the other side of the Bibo River.

This morning, a guest Qing led a group of eighteen people to Zuixian Mansion to get wine, but never came back.

Hua Jieyu investigated all the way, but there was no trace to follow. Finally, he made an appointment with the big shopkeeper Yu Renxiong in Zuixianlou.

Yu Renxiong, who has a big belly, is close to the age of sixtieth, his temples are white, and a fat face is greeted with a smile when he sees Hua Jieyu. Then he took Hua Jieyu to investigate up and down the drunken fairy building, but found nothing.

There is no one in life, and no corpse in death.

Hua Xie Yu can only turn around helplessly.

Halfway through, looking at Yu Renxiong, who was just about to return, Hua Xie suddenly stopped him again.

"Boss Yu, since this kind of thing has happened in the restaurant, I guess that someone is making a hindrance and doesn't want Yanyulou to continue to use your drunken immortal brew?"

Hua Jieyu's eyes froze, as if he had something to say.

Yu Renxiong groaned slightly, nodded slightly, and said:

"There is indeed such a possibility, if I find out which villain is the perpetrator, I will definitely break him into pieces!"

Hua Jieyu's eyes were sharp, and he stared at Yu Renxiong tightly, and then said:

"Our two families are the two best restaurants on the bank of the Bibo River, and the combination is beneficial to both sides, and the division is two injuries. ”

"There is only a big river from Yanyu Building to Zuixian Tower, if it is on our territory, it is impossible not to be unaware, then most likely, the problem is that it appears near Zuixian Tower, Boss Yu, should you give me an explanation?"

Hua Xie Yu turned to look at the river, put his hands behind his back, and waited for Yu Renxiong's reply.

"This is the evil of the designer's mind, if we really did it, how could we sell you such a big flaw?"

Yu Renxiong's eyes were solemn, and he twisted his long beard with one hand and said slowly.

Hua Xie heard this, and left with Lian Fang'er without looking back.

After not taking a few steps, Lian Fang'er turned back again, only to hear her bow slightly to Yu Renxiong and say:

"My son-in-law said that tomorrow he will send someone to fetch the drunken immortal brew as usual, please ask the boss to do everything as usual. ”

"Please tell your son-in-law, we are drunk in the immortal building, and we are willing to cooperate fully. ”

"Since this is the case, the slave family will take their leave first. ”

Back to the Smoke and Rain Building. Hua Xie Yu immediately recalled the other six guest secretaries who were outside and fully participated in the investigation of the matter. The six guest secretaries tried their best to track it down for a day, but the results were unsatisfactory.

Hua Xie Yu rubbed her temples, carefully thinking about every detail that she might have missed.

Lian Xiang'er stepped forward, gently brewed a cup of tea, then poured a small cup and handed it to Hua Jieyu, and said:

"Childe, in my opinion, it is inevitable that someone will design this matter, do you think it will ......?"

"Huh?"

Hua Jieyu took the tea, took a sip lightly, and then cast a puzzled gaze on Lian Xiang'er.

Lian Xiang'er hesitated, and finally said:

"Could it have something to do with Yun Gongzi?"

"Yun Xuan?"

"Impossible, since he came in, he has never left your and my field of vision, and besides, with his person, how can he do such a thing. ”

Hua Xie Yu shook his head slowly.

Then there was a twinkle in his eyes, and he said:

"You mean, the disappearance of these people is not the main purpose of the other party, their real purpose is Yun Xuan?"

Lian Xiang'er nodded, and shook her head again.

"Childe, the slave maid is just guessing, after all, if they want to deal with Yun Gongzi, there is no need to attack one of us and a dozen white and blue attendants. ”

Hua Xie Yu nodded slowly and took another sip of tea.

"Childe, according to the slave maid, this matter is the ghost of the drunken fairy building, they see that our business is doing well, so they want to sabotage. ”

"If we didn't have Drunken Immortal Brew in Yanyu Building, it is estimated that many guests would run to them, which is really sinister. ”

Lian Fang'er on the side said hatefully.

"With Yu Renxiong's city government, there will be no such obvious flaws, and if it's just wine, he just refuses to provide it, and we can't help it. ”

Lian Xiang'er defended on the side, and suddenly her watery eyes moved, and the tone of her words changed:

"Maybe he did it on purpose, so as to get rid of his suspicion. ”

"But it still doesn't make sense, over the years, by providing us with drunken immortal wine, he has made the most profits, after all, we only take one percent of the profit from selling wine. ”

Hua Xie Yu drank the few teas in his hand and continued to ponder.

As the two maids said, what is Yu Renxiong's purpose?

Or is it something else?

After some hard thinking to no avail, Hua Xie Yu simply stopped being entangled.

"At present, it seems that we can only lure the snake out of the hole and wait and see what happens. ”

"No matter who the other party is, if I catch it, I will definitely not be polite. ”

Hua Jieyu's eyes suddenly shot out two cold lights, held the teacup, and squeezed it with one hand.

The whole teacup suddenly turned into powder and floated around.

Lian Xiang'er stuck out her tongue cutely, revealing a scared look.

Since Gongzi came to Yanyu Building, it seems that it is the first time that he has such a big anger. Similar incidents have happened from time to time in the past, but I haven't seen Childe look like this.

Lian Xiang'er thought to herself, but she heard Hua Xie say:

"Xiang'er, what do you think of Yun Xuan?"

"Huh?"

Lian Xiang'er was a little stunned, puzzled by what she meant.

"So, do you think he's good, or is it bad?"

When Lian Xiang'er was first asked, she was a little bossless for a while. Ye Xuan's charming and deep eyes flashed in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel hot, and hurriedly lowered his head and said:

"It's okay, it's okay. ”

"What does it mean to be okay, is that good or bad?"

Hua Jieyu looked at the shy little Nizi in front of her playfully.

"Okay, okay. ”

Lian Xiang'er blushed and her voice was inaudible.

"I promised Yun Xuan to help him ask a girl to be his wife. ”

Hua Xie Yu smiled slightly.

"Ahhh......h

Lian Xiang'er retreated again and again, her face pale.

Hua Jieyu rolled her eyes rarely, and said angrily:

"You stinky girl, what are you thinking, I want you to follow Yun Xuan in the future, but I didn't say that you should be his wife. ”

Only then did Lian Xiang'er breathe a sigh of relief.

"You go and follow him, and if you find a woman he likes, come back and tell me, and I'll go and get him a red rope." It can be regarded as fulfilling the promise. ”

"Yes, Childe. ”

Kasa day early in the morning.

The small bamboo building, the birdsong is tactful.

In the verdant bamboo forest, a figure flickered and moved, waving the iron sword in his hand, bringing up bursts of bamboo leaves falling, and from time to time startling a burst of birds flying.

It was Ergazi who got up early in the morning to cultivate.

Keeping in mind what Ye Xuan said, as soon as the sky was bright, Er Gazi got up and practiced the method of body training taught by Yun Xuan.

After practicing dozens of times, I was already sweating profusely and my whole body was sore.

After that, I insisted on practicing the five footsteps of the Lost Trace Style dozens of times.

At the beginning of the red sun, the exhausted Er Gazi began to practice the Nine Swords of Dialing Clouds.

"Hey~!"

"Ha~!"

"Oops~!"

One was careless, but he was mixed with his right foot with his left foot and fell directly to the ground.

The iron sword was thrown far away, and with a thud, it fell to the ground.

Ergazi gritted his teeth and inhaled, his hands supported the ground, he only felt that his arms were sore, and he couldn't get up, so he simply lay on the ground and recovered his strength.

Suddenly, a beautiful ballad came, and Ergazi was a little fascinated by it.

“......

The smoke and rain pavilion listens to the wind and rain, and looks at the white clouds with a smile.

The jade ornaments are worth thousands of treasures, in exchange for the peerless face of the city.

There are also delicacies and fine wines, and you can enjoy the blue waves with you.

Leaning on the building drunk and listening to the tide, the river is like a stone continuously.

The sound of fairy music is slow, and I have my own sword dance.

......”

The singing voice is from far and near, like a heavenly sound.

Vaguely, Ergazi saw a pretty girl carrying a bamboo basket and walking slowly.

Stretched out his hand to wipe the hot sweat on his face, his vision was a little clearer, but he also looked muddy.

The girl was dressed in a long white dress, squatted lightly, picked up the long sword on the ground, carried the lotus foot, and walked to Ergazi's side.

Ergazi tried to look up at the girl, but the girl smiled in return.

"You scumbag, but it's also funny, it's the first time that the slave family has seen someone who can trip himself up while practicing swords. ”

The girl casually held a sword flower, and as soon as she threw it, the long sword made a 'cang' sound, and went straight into the scabbard that was inserted on the ground by Ergazi.

Ergazi scratched his head in a little embarrassment, but at this time he regained some strength and reluctantly stood up.

Lian Xiang'er looked at Ergazi, who was sweating profusely and embarrassed, and knew that he was half of Yun Xuanshou's disciple.

Slander in the heart.

Is there any difference between half a disciple and a disciple?

But he didn't know that Yun Xuan only passed on the two Gazi one and a half moves, so he was called 'half a disciple'.

"Little Young Master Ye Yun, I was sent by the playboy to take care of Young Master Ye, and I will be his maid in the future. ”

Accustomed to being called "Ergazi", he was suddenly called out to Yun Xuanci's name, as well as "Childe", Ergazi couldn't react a little.

Just stared blankly at the girl in front of him.

"It's no wonder that you're only half a disciple. ”

She felt as if she understood something.

At this moment, I saw the bamboo shadow shaking, and another person came.

The person who came was dressed in a purple gauze skirt, with a graceful posture, and between walking, he was like a fairy descending to earth.

A white veil covered most of his face, and only a flowing hair swayed slightly in the wind.

"Hey, Sister Weiran, why are you here too?"

Lian Xiang'er trotted a few steps to the front, and grabbed the arm of the visitor with one hand.

Because she is the maid of the playboy, she often speaks on her behalf, or manages the daily life of the restaurant, and Erlian has a high status in the restaurant, so she is often called a sister to the talented people in the building.

"I'm here to pay a visit to Master Yun Xuan. ”

Lian Xiang'er was a little surprised, you must know that this sister is the coldest one in the entire Yanyu Building, and so far, no one has been able to become her guest in the curtain.

I actually came to visit Yun Gongzi today?

Sure enough, it's my son-in-law, and the charm is really great!

Thinking of this, she immediately blushed, hurriedly lowered her head, and swept to the ground with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

If Hua Jieyu knew that this little girl had rebelled so quickly, she would probably be able to spit out a mouthful of old blood in anger.

"Xiang'er, are you here to deliver food to Yun Gongzi?"

Lian Xiang'er nodded and said:

"Gongzi asked me to be Yun Gongzi's maid, and from now on I will follow Yun Gongzi. ”

An inexplicable look flashed in Shen Weiran's eyes, and then said:

"Why don't you give me the rice blue, let me deliver today's meal, Sister Quan owes you a favor." ”

Lian Xiang'er was even more surprised in her heart, could it be that this sister really likes Yun Gongzi?

I heard that they only met once?

Yes, it must have been love at first sight.

Otherwise, with the temper of Sister Weiran, can she put down her body and deliver food to others?

Lian Xiang'er, who thought she had seen through everything, hurriedly handed the rice basket to Shen Weiran and said:

"Okay, then give it to my sister to deliver. ”

With that, the two walked towards the bamboo building.

Watching the two of them walk towards Xiaolou, Er Gazi patted his head, and then remembered that Yun Xuan was in retreat, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Two fairy sisters, my master and his old man are closing their ...... Closed retreat, no one can see people. ”

was watched by two pairs of beautiful eyes at the same time, and Ergazi stumbled a little.

"Retreat?"

The two women spoke in unison.

"Yes, Master said that he said that he would go into retreat for a few days without being disturbed. ”

Shen Weiran glanced at the attic when he heard this, and handed the rice basket to Lian Xiang'er again.

"It seems that I can only come back another day, Sister Xiang'er, I'll go back first. ”

"Sister walks slowly. ”

Lian Xiang'er agreed.

Seeing Shen Weiran's figure disappearing into the bamboo forest, Lian Xiang'er suddenly stared at her eyes and looked at Ergazi fiercely.

"Yun Gongzi is not very old, why do you call him an old man?"

"Forget it, don't worry about you idiot, hurry up and clean up, since Childe is in retreat, this meal will be cheaper for you. ”

“......”

The third floor of the Yanyu Building.

Hua Jieyu stood by the window, and behind him stood Lian Fang'er and four guest secretaries in turn.

Li San is one of them.

In order to prevent accidents, the eighteen people who went to Zuixianlou to transport wine this time were led by two Keqing masters, and among the eighteen people, half of them were all white and blue waiters with good skills in disguise.

Two guest qing, one is called Liu Jianghe, one is famous for his fast sword, and the other is called Liu Hanzhou, who is good at using the 36-way Tiangang knife, both of them have been famous for a long time, even among the first-class masters, they are also among the top.

"Don't worry, Childe, before leaving, I sprinkled soul-chasing incense on each of them, this thing is specially used by me to track down treasures, ordinary people can't smell it, within a hundred zhang, I can find the source. ”

Li San said confidently.

Two of them looked at Li San with disdain on their faces.

"Talking about tracking treasures, it's just to do some stealing and stealing things. ”

"I know how to do some tricks, how can I get on the stage. ”

Li San's face suddenly became gloomy.

"Xu Da Wu Sheng, you two just know how to order the fists and feet of the three-legged cat, what qualifications do you have to judge your third master. ”

"No matter how nonsense it is, beware of the house where the treasure is hidden in your house, maybe the third master will be in a bad mood one day, so I will have to go shopping. ”

"You dare!"

The two Keqing were suddenly shocked and angry, and without waiting to continue to speak, the two of them suddenly punched one and the other kicked out, directly enveloping Li Sanmian and lower abdomen, and struck out fiercely.

Li San only felt that a gust of evil wind was coming, and he was unprepared in advance, and it was too late to dodge at this time.

"Bang~!"

"You two, that's enough! When is this still going on!"

I saw a giant man with five big and three thick eyes behind Xu Da and Wu Sheng, and two big hands like pu fans directly grabbed the necks of the two, and directly carried them up like chickens.

Immediately threw it back, and the two of them took a few steps backwards one after another, only then did they stabilize their figures.

They all glanced at the giant man with some fear, and then glanced at Li San, who was snickering on the side, and then straightened his clothes and stood up again.

The giant man's name is Nie Yuanba, and everyone only knows that this person was brought by Hua Jieyu, but they don't know the origin.

Nie Yuanba rarely appears in the building, and everyone thinks that he just has a strange power, but at this time, at least he is a top first-class master.

Hua Xie Yu turned around at this time and frowned slightly.

"I have paid a lot of money to invite you, and I have always respected you, which does not mean that you can be presumptuous. ”

The voice was cold, like frost.

The cold gaze swept over the two people who had just stood still, and suddenly Xu Da and Wu Sheng stood aside with their heads bowed in a proper manner.

He glanced at Juhan and Li San again, nodded slightly, and then looked at the river again.

Above the river, a cargo ship slowly drove towards the drunken immortal residence on the opposite bank.

The Bibo River is particularly wide, and when the cargo ship reaches the center of the river, only a few figures can be faintly seen walking on the boat upstairs.

When we reached the opposite shore, we could no longer see clearly, and we could only see the cargo ship berthed in the harbor in the distance.

The six people in the building all silently looked at the cargo ship on the other side of the river and did not say a word.

Before departure, everyone agreed that if the cargo ship did not return within an hour, it was a change.

As the sun rose, an hour was about to pass, and the ships on the other side remained unmoved.

Just as everyone was anxious and about to go to the other side, the cargo ship moved.

Hua Jieyu was confused in her heart, and only hoped that Liu Jianghe and Liu Hanzhou could return as soon as possible, so as to give everyone an answer.

The cargo ship slowly crossed the center of the river, and a figure could be faintly seen walking on it.

Suddenly, the entire cargo ship suddenly sank at a breakneck speed!

Everyone upstairs looked at it in unison.

Suddenly, the figures on the boat were panicked, and they jumped into the water one after another.

It never surfaced again.

On the banks of this Bibo River, most of the people have good water qualities, and the people sent there are even better hands in the water, how can they fall into the water, how can they be silent, and not even a wave is stirred?

Hua Xie secretly said badly, and he took precautions, but he didn't expect the enemy to do anything in the water.

He was about to send someone to investigate in the water, but he heard two muffled snorts.

"Poof!

I saw that Xu Da and Wu Sheng, who had caused the conflict before, suddenly vomited blood and died on the spot.

This......!

There were only four people left on the field, and they all gasped.

Hua Jieyu's face was even more gloomy, and his originally handsome face was covered with frost at the moment.

Yanyulou recruited a total of seven guests, and in just two days, five were folded, and eight white and blue attendants were also taken.

The purpose of the other party is self-evident.

Li San walked up to the two corpses, rolled the deceased's eyeballs, and confirmed:

"It's a poisonous dove. ”

"The poison dove is a bird in the northwest desert that lives by preying on sand tigers. When hungry, the mouth secretes a poisonous saliva, which drops onto its sharp claws to hunt, also known as the dove poison. ”

"The characteristic of this poison is that as long as there is no strenuous exercise, the toxin will be in a mild state, and with the poison it will gradually make people unconscious. ”

"Once you exercise vigorously during poisoning, the toxin will spread rapidly, and you will definitely die, and there is no cure for it. ”

"As far as I know, there is only this kind of poison in Lin'an City, only ...... Ground Pavilion!"

"What a pavilion!"

Hua Xie snorted coldly, and her white fist slowly clenched.

Just listen to Li San continue:

"The thirteen demons of the Earth Pavilion, among which Hu Yanchun, who ranks twelfth, is rumored to have raised a heavenly poison dove ten years ago, and this person's body method is extremely fast, no less than my ......"

Li San was about to continue, but found that Hua Jieyu's face was getting darker and darker.

At this time, I only heard Pian Fang'er exclaim:

"Childe, you're also poisoned?!"

“......”

Hua Jieyu's body went weak and slowly fell down.
