Xiao Yunfan looked at all the thoughts of the plane tree, and thought secretly: "It is said that Ahri does not know martial arts, but she is in the company of wild beasts, and her senses are naturally much sharper than ordinary people. The scent on that beam seemed to be a kind of fat powder. When I woke up Lan Xiang, the smell of fat powder on her body seemed to be completely different from this fat powder smell.

It seems that I need to go to the rouge shop that Lan Xiang said to find out. If you look for the clue of rouge, you may find something. He turned to the maid and asked where the maid Lan Xiang's rouge shop was, and Lan Xiang told him that the rouge shop was at the first alley on the west side of the street.

Xiao Yunfan walked out of the brocade shop and went straight to the rouge shop all the way west. Sure enough, as Lan Xiang said, at the entrance of this west alley, there is an apricot-yellow sign. Xiao Yunfan walked into the store, and a young man with a handsome face asked with a smile: "Guest officer, you want to buy rouge gouache for the girl, I don't know what the guest officer wants, there are seventeen kinds of rouge in this store, all of which are hand-made by local incense powder masters." ”

As he spoke, he picked up a delicate incense powder box, opened it and handed it to Xiao Yunfan. Xiao Yunfan smelled the seventeen kinds of rouge one by one, but he didn't find the same kind of rouge as the one he heard on Fang Cai Liang. He remembered that Lan Xiang had said that the daughter of the shopkeeper of the rouge shop had disappeared. He asked, "Shopkeeper, I have a reluctant request, can you tell me about the disappearance of your shopkeeper's daughter." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "The guest officer is really good at laughing." Xiao Yunfan said: "How can I laugh?" The young man said: "The shopkeeper of my family married three rooms, and all of them were sons, not any daughters. If he had a daughter, he would naturally be the first to recruit me, and I am afraid that it would not be the turn of the guest officer. Where did the guests hear the gossip?"

Xiao Yunfan's heart suddenly sank and said, "It's not good, I've been tricked." As he spoke, he went straight out of the rouge shop and walked in the direction of the brocade shop. The young man shook his head and said, "This man is a madman." On the way back, a dark red sedan chair was walking from east to west. The person on the sedan chair lifted the sedan curtain and looked at Xiao Yunfan's distant back, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Yunfan was only in a hurry and didn't care. When he returned to the brocade shop again, he saw two corpses lying in the courtyard. One is the shopkeeper, and the other is the man. And the maid Lan Xiang was gone.

He leaned down to check the cause of the shopkeeper's death, which had a red spot the size of a copper coin on his neck, as did the man's fatal wound. Seeing that the two died innocently, Xiao Yunfan was filled with grief and indignation. Thinking of Ahri's safety, he tried to calm his emotions.

He reached out and took out the fire from his bosom and lit an oil lamp on the table in the room. Holding an oil lamp in one hand, he carefully examined the room again.

Suddenly, he stepped on a bamboo stick, and a sugar gourd on it happened to be flattened by him. Xiao Yunfan glanced at the sugar gourd, and suddenly understood in his heart. It turned out that the vendor selling sugar gourds was in league with Lanxiang. They may have been eyeing themselves early on. And there is a hidden anesthetic in the sugar gourd, otherwise when Ahri is taken captive, there must be water splashed out of the struggling next to the bath tub in the wing.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on a cabinet that he had opened before, and there was nothing in it except a few quilts, and it was even more impossible to hide people. But at this time, a corner of quilt was exposed through the gap in the cabinet door, obviously someone was in a hurry, and there was no time to hide it in the future. He opened the cabinet door to see that several quilts had slipped and fallen to the ground due to the haphazard stacking.

Xiao Yunfan threw all the things in the cabinet on the ground, wanting to find out. He stretched out two fingers and flicked them on the innermost wall of the cabinet. The wall immediately made a thumping sound. If the walls of the cabinet are solid, it is naturally a different sound.

There must be something strange about the wall in front of him, he reached out and pushed the wall, and with a creak, the wall flipped to one side, revealing a door. Without thinking, he slipped through the door. Behind this door is a chamber. By the light of the fire, he saw water stains on the ground. It is clear that Lan Xiang and her companions who had hidden her in the cabinet before seeing Ahri faint and hid her here.

At that time, when he and the shopkeeper entered the house, Ahri was probably still behind the cupboard. The fragrance on the beam, as well as the words of the orchid, was entirely to lead himself to the rouge shop. Then they killed people and took them captive.

The light of the fire shone on a sack in the corner, and the sack wriggled and made a noise inside. Xiao Yunfan walked to the sack and untied it. I saw a girl with disheveled hair inside, with a hemp core stuffed in her mouth, and she looked like the maid Lanxiang. From this point of view, the orchid he saw was naturally pretended to be.

The real Lan Xiang couldn't help but tremble when she saw Xiao Yunfan's body. Xiao Yunfan reached out and ripped off the hemp core stuffed in her mouth, and then used a short sword to break the hemp rope tied to her. Lan Xiang said in a trembling voice: "You...... Who are you?" Xiao Yunfan said: "Don't be afraid, girl, I'm not a bad person." ”

Lan Xiang's eyes were still full of fear, and she didn't seem to trust him. Xiao Yunfan thought that there were two more corpses in the courtyard at this time, and if she stayed here, she would definitely be questioned by the people of the government. He took out some scattered silver from his bosom and stuffed it into her hand and said, "Girl, your master has been killed by gangsters, I think you should run for your life." ”

Lan Xiang was taken aback when she heard this, and her face couldn't help but turn pale. She looked at Xiao Yunfan and asked, "Uncle, are you surnamed Xiao?" Xiao Yunfan nodded. Lan Xiang said: "Tie me up and let me bring you a message." Xiao Yunfan was stunned at first and said, "What words?" Lan Xiang said: "You...... You are waiting in the private room of Wenxiang Building. "Yunnan

Xiao Yunfan said: "Girl, do you know where the Wenxiang Building is?" Lan Xiang said: "Go out of the gate and go west, and you will reach the third street entrance." Xiao Yunfan arched his hand and said, "Thank you." As he spoke, he turned and came out of the closet again.

When he walked out into the street, he thought to himself, "The other party must have been eyeing me early in the morning because he was so preoccupied." I don't know what kind of trick they have set up for me this time. As he walked, he thought, "I wonder who has such a deep scheming?" from the man who sold the sugar gourd, then the message from Lan Xiang, and finally the door of the cabinet that was deliberately left behind.

The plan was seamless, stealing people right under my nose. With such a strong opponent, it seems that I have to fight with 12 points of spirit. ”

After a while, he came downstairs to Wenxiang, and there was a sedan chair parked in front of the building, Xiao Yunfan glanced at it, and felt that it was very familiar, and he didn't think much about it at the moment. Stepping through the door, the hall on the first floor was empty. A woman with a fair complexion and a light green gauze said with a smile: "Xiao Daxia, you are really punctual." ”

Xiao Yunfan snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, it was you who tied up my little sister." The woman said, "Xiao Daxia, please go upstairs, my master is waiting for you." As she spoke, she moved the lotus step lightly and walked to Xiao Yunfan's side, ready to take his arm. As she approached, the faint smell of rouge on her body was exactly what she smelled on the wooden beam.

Xiao Yunfan glanced at her and said coldly: "Xiao doesn't like this, I have hands and feet, so I'd better go upstairs by myself." Seeing that he was so puzzled, the woman pursed her lips and smiled, revealing a shallow pear vortex. said: "What kind of character am I as Xiao Daxia, it turns out that even I, a little woman, are afraid." ”

Xiao Yunfan went straight up the stairs, turned around and said, "It's a pity that you are a girl, otherwise I would have to punch your nose flat." The woman said, "Why?" Xiao Yunfan said, "Because the way you laugh is so annoying." The woman seemed to have been stung by a scorpion, and her face was extremely embarrassed. She looked at Xiao Yunfan hatefully, hating to bite his throat.

There were two women standing at the door of the private room, covered with black cloaks and holding long swords in their hands. When the two of them saw Xiao Yunfan coming, they said in unison: "Welcome Xiao Daxia." Xiao Yunfan nodded and walked into the private room. There was a woman in a goose yellow gauze dress sitting in the private room, and this woman's appearance was exactly the same as Bai Ruoxuan.

As soon as Xiao Yunfan saw her, he burst out and said, "White girl, why are you?" The woman was stunned, looked at him, and stretched out her jade hand to signal that he could sit opposite. Xiao Yunfan glanced at her carefully, this woman didn't seem to be Bai Ruoxuan. The woman had a black mole the size of a grain of rice under her right eye, but Bai Ruoxuan didn't have it.

In front of the square table are four delicate side dishes, and a crystal clear jade pot. Xiao Yunfan said: "Your Excellency caught my little sister, what is the purpose?" The woman looked at Xiao Yunfan with a wave of eyes and said, "It seems that Xiao Daxia has a lot of confidants." It's a white girl, it's a green girl, and although I wear yellow clothes, my surname is yellow. ”

Xiao Yunfan said: "Your Excellency doesn't seem to have answered me yet, who are you?" The woman smiled and said, "The little woman is naturally Xiao Daxia's opponent." Still, I'll be your employer right away. Xiao Yunfan said: "You have to hire me, I am not a killer." Even if I am, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford the price I offered. ”

The woman lifted the flask and poured a glass for Xiao Yunfan. Then I poured myself a glass. said softly: "Xiao Daxia is really good at laughing." Little woman, I am most afraid of seeing blood, and I don't like to kill. Her voice was soft but incomparably pleasant, like a spring breeze.

Xiao Yunfan picked up the wine glass, didn't look at it, and drank it with his mouth open. The woman asked, "You're not afraid that I'll poison this wine?" Xiao Yunfan said, "I'm afraid." But if I don't drink the wine handed by the beauty, it will ruin the scenery. What's more, if you have something to ask me for, and you poison me, then who will do the work for you?"

The woman raised her glass and took a sip. Two red clouds appeared on his face. Lined with the soft lighting in the private room, the color on her skin became more and more soft and moving. The woman put down the wine glass and said slowly: "Your Excellency is really a smart person, no wonder my master appreciates you very much." ”

Xiao Yunfan said: "If you had said these words to me before, I would have been very happy." But now, I don't like such compliments very much. If you are always praised by others, you will inevitably be proud. If a person is complacent, it means that he is about to fall from a height, and at the worst time, I am afraid that a small life will have to be confessed. ”

The woman said: "There will never be such a day for a character like Xiao Daxia, a smart person will only do the right thing, and how can a person who always do the right thing make mistakes?"

Xiao Yunfan frowned and said: "Being smart is mistaken by being smart, if you are too smart, there will be a lot of trouble chasing you and pestering you." As long as you are human, you will inevitably make mistakes. Tonight, Xiao is not planted in the hands of a girl, and he is almost like a fool. The woman smiled and said, "We designed Xiao Daxia, and Xiao Daxia is completely defenseless." If you take precautions, none of us will escape your eyes. ”

Xiao Yunfan picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, his eyes stared at the woman's face and said, "After talking for a long time, I haven't asked the girl's name, and I don't know what the girl wants to hire me for?" The woman said: "My name is Golden Bell, and it is the same golden bell as the bell in my hand." As for what we're going to do......"
