Volume 2 [Demon Fire] 172: The cold mansion of the Qiqiao Festival was robbed

() The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win and there are countless people in the world.

Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge.

If the two love for a long time, how can they be there, morning and twilight?

(Quoted from: Qin Guan "Queqiao Immortal")

After the autumn season, it is the seventh day of the seventh month of July in a blink of an eye, which is the annual begging festival. Whenever the Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet, Piaoxue will carry a basket of food and a pot full of peach blossom wine, and come to the peach orchard in Sichuan Province to pay tribute to and remember Chen Aniu.

At the beginning, Chen Aniu's agreement of 'meeting in the peach orchard of Sichuan Mansion and ten miles of Qiqiao Festival' has also become a lifelong agreement between Piaoxue and him.

On this day, Tao Xuan changed the past Xiao Suo and ushered in his own hostess. The dumb man and the dumb woman saw the hostess carrying two baskets into Taoxuan, and happily came out to greet them.

Accompanied by Chu Yaowu and others, Piaoxue put incense on Ah Niu's spiritual seat, and then came to his grave and set up sacrifices with his own hands.

She plucked the weeds from the grave and placed a bouquet of flowers in front of the wordless tombstone. Then he poured two glasses of wine, one spilled in front of the grave, and the other was sent to the soft intestines.

Brother Niu: It's been a long time, what are you doing, are you thinking about me?...... I miss you every day...... This is how Piaoxue began her nostalgia for Ah Niu.

Chu Yaowu and others silently accompanied her behind her. Although I don't know what her master has experienced, it is not difficult to see from her series of behaviors: The person in the tomb must have some kind of inseparable affection with her. This also proves that this heroine is a sentimental and affectionate person.

Please take care of your health, tomorrow you will rush to the Black Cliff to find Xiahou Yan. Drinking too much alcohol can hurt you......

Chu Yaowu?

Subordinates are here!

You've been following me for a while! If, tomorrow, there is a battle on the Black Cliff, I will ...... When you die, you will bury me next to this 'wordless monument.'

Chu Yaowu never thought that the Venerable Lord would entrust him with the affairs behind him. I couldn't believe that she would be defeated by Xia Houyan's hands.

You'll be fine, my lord. Xiahou Yan is just a protector of the Demon Realm, and his prestige is not enough to control the entire Demon Realm and let all the demon spirits obey his dispatch. By the way, the subordinates also found out one thing, and I don't know if I should talk about it at the moment......

What's up?

At that time, the Venerable Lord asked me to investigate the case of the destruction of the Leng Mansion in Qingyuan, and I found out: In addition to the kidnapping of the daughter of the Leng family, there was also a person who escaped by chance. This person is the bookkeeper of Joy's Dyeing Workshop, named Zuo Chengzhi. But I don't know if this person is useful to the lord, so I didn't continue to track down his whereabouts......

So have you found out who kidnapped Condensation?

Hui Zun Lord, is the cave master of the Leaning Moon Cave of Kunyun Mountain. Later, a group of people from Zunwumen handed over the enamel stone to Huangliang in order to save the daughter of the Leng family. Huang Liang's master Jing Yangzi killed his apprentice with his own hands in order to get the enamel stone. After the daughter of the Leng family was rescued, she gave birth in Majia Town, and due to physical exhaustion, the infant was unfortunately suffocated to death before she gave birth......

That was on the guillotine of the Qing Void View back then...... Have you checked Fang Qiaolian's death? Who is the real culprit behind it?

This matter has not yet been revealed, and since the Qingxu Temple has been abandoned for a long time, the disciples inside do not know where to go. So it's not easy to find people who witnessed it. However, if I find the Zuo Chengzhi I mentioned just now, I think it will be much easier to investigate this matter thoroughly!

Oh, what does Joey's Dye Workshop have to do with the Guillotine case, and why did you find him...... Can you know the inside story?

The lord didn't know that the account housekeeper Zuo Chengzhi had a twin brother named Zuo Chengming. Zuo Chengming was at that time

It is the third generation of disciples of Qingxuguan. I think...... Since they are brothers, the two must have been in close contact frequently. Through Zuo Chengzhi, you can naturally find Zuo Chengming, right?

Yes, that makes sense. Then tomorrow you will send someone to check the whereabouts of the Zuo brothers. What I want is evidence that can prove that Fang Qiaolian was victimized, and the culprit. With this evidence, the grudge between me and him can be resolved.

Chu Yaowu didn't know who the 'he' in the mouth of the Venerable Lord was referring to! But he could guess that the grievances between them were no less than the grievances between the Venerable Lord and Xiahou Yan. But there is always a strong and weak opponent, and there is always a priority in things.

According to the opinion of his subordinates, it will take some time to thoroughly investigate the case of the decapitation. It is better for the lord to give up looking for Xiahou Yan first, solve the grievances of the fairy world first, and then go to the demon world.

Piaoxue thought for a moment and said:

You have a point...... Then I will give you three days, and within three days, you will arrest the Zuo brothers, and I will interrogate them personally.

The subordinates obeyed, and I will arrange it.

Wait! The snow stopped him again.

Chu Yaowu turned around and stood by......

Since it is a case of decapitation of the clear void, then you will arrest them to the clear void. Don't expose Tao Xuan. Since this matter happened in Qingxuguan, I will end it with 'them' in Qingxuguan!

Yes, sir!

One night three days later, a group of demon world black iron quietly appeared in Qingyuan County, Daming Dynasty.

And Zuo Chengzhi in the cold mansion is telling the story of the begging festival to his 'granddaughter' in the Qixiang Pavilion......

Grandpa, grandpa?...... And then what?

And ah...... The magpies couldn't bear to see the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, looking at each other on both sides of the Milky Way but couldn't see each other, so they built a magpie bridge for them. Let them meet across the galaxy.

Zuo Chengzhi's story tells the story of his granddaughter, who was in tears. I couldn't help but scold the Queen Mother for breaking up the marriage:

Grandfather...... The Queen Mother is really ruthless. Can't she find out with her conscience? Even the magpies know the pity of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and they have built a magpie bridge for them. But why is the Queen Mother so inhumane and unrepentant?

Zuo Chengzhi thought about the child's words, and suddenly thought of 'once'. once helped the eldest lady break up the marriage of Wu and Wen Xiao. also made Wen Xiao desperate several times and almost lost his life. He sighed softly...... No more words!

Although 'Shuang'er' is small, it has a bodhisattva-like heart. When she was about to starve to death on the street, it was she who shared a small steamed bun with herself. And this small favor has become a great favor, which I will never forget. Even she knew that the Queen Mother was inhumane. And I have lived for so long, and I only know that I am dedicated to protecting the Lord, but I have never thought about 'right and wrong, good and evil!', and I am inevitably a little embarrassed in my heart......

Suddenly, the door of Qixiang Pavilion was broken by a group of intruders of unknown origin......

You! is Zuo Chengzhi?

Zuo Chengzhi was taken aback by this group of masked people, and asked tremblingly:

You, who are you?

The black-clothed iron-masked men were indiscriminate, and when they came up, they pulled his arms up......

Zuo Chengzhi was frightened and shouted outside:

Help me!...... Someone's coming......

His cry for help really attracted a person. This person is the mute young man Cai Shaowu. He quickly ran to Qixiang Pavilion and stood at the door and questioned the trespasser in the words of 'oh oh ......', as if asking about the origin of the other party.

Chu Yaowu didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, pushed Cai Shaowu away, and beckoned to the same party inside...... The black irons inside walked out of Qixiang Pavilion with Zuo Chengzhi on their feet.

Shuang'er saw that his grandfather was captured by a group of gangsters, and hurriedly got out

Get out of bed and go over and tear the corners of their clothes:

You let go of my grandpa, let go of my grandpa...... Woo......

As soon as Chu Yaowu heard this, this girl actually called Grandpa Zuo Chengzhi! So in order to force Zuo Chengzhi to submit obediently, he instructed his subordinates:

You bring this girl with you! Save this old man from not cooperating! Zuo Chengzhi? We want to see you, as long as you obediently come with us, I won't embarrass you. Otherwise, I'll kill your granddaughter!"

Zuo Chengzhi was forced to be helpless, so he had no choice but not to resist, and was obediently led by the black irons, and was taken all the way to Qingxuguan. Shuang'er was also brought to the long-lost Qingxu Guan as a human rule......

And Cai Shaowu immediately went to the steward of the Leng Mansion to write a letter, and the trustee went to inform him of his eldest brother (Cai Hunan). And this letter naturally went into the hands of Condensation Incense.

What? Someone broke into Lengfu? They also arrested Zuo Chengzhi, Don Juan, and prepared to go to Lengfu. Condensation incense immediately couldn't sit still after reading the letterhead.

Along the way, she sat in the car and analyzed: Who will it be? Zuo Lao has always had no grievances with others, and did everything according to my arrangement, and did not show his face in public outside...... Who will take him, and what is the purpose of arresting him?

She couldn't figure it out, so she could only keep urging Don Juan to speed up her march...... Finally arrived at Qingyuan Lengfu, she found Cai Shaowu and learned from the confession he wrote that it was a group of black-clothed iron-masked people. So she was even more confused......

She hurriedly arranged for Don Juan to thoroughly investigate Zuo Chengzhi's whereabouts, and after a period of investigation through the streets and alleys, she finally learned from various channels: Zuo Chengzhi was taken to Qingxuguan by a group of people in black.

Isn't it a long time ago? How can an abandoned Taoist temple have a new force? And these forces are unseen and unheard of before by us?

Don Juan prompted:

Could it be a group of hooligans who robbed homes and houses? After arresting people and having nowhere to place them, they temporarily lived in Qingxuguan?

Condensation Incense denied:

Robbing houses, hooligans, and ...... Is there anything missing in the cold house?

Back to the military division, Leng Fu didn't lose anything, just lost these two people!

Isn't that what it takes? I didn't lose any money or treasure. How could it be a robber who robbed a house? I don't think it's that simple! I have a sense of foreboding......

Strategist? or ...... Let's let him know and let him figure it out for us!

Let's check the size of the matter first, and then see if there is any need to alarm the boss. Steward Tang, you go to Li Xiaoxiao and ask him to check the details of the other party first. We'll make up our minds after that!

Tang Juan did as instructed and went to find Li Xiaoxiao.

And on the side of Qingxuguan, Piaoxue ordered the two prisoners to be locked up in the dungeon of Qingxuguan, and see what the cold mansion would do if he lost this person, and the condensation incense would do!

She came to the dungeon unhurriedly, looked at Zuo Chengzhi who was tied to the torture rack, and was about to interrogate him, when she suddenly found a familiar face tied next to her. And this face was staring at her with a very strange expression. The eyes of the two widened and widened, and the more Piaoxue looked, the more surprised they became......

It may be because the little girl's mouth is stuffed with cloth, so she stopped for a long time and didn't dare to admit it.

She flashed to the little girl's side and pulled the ball out of her mouth. The expression was even more surprised:

Frost, is it really you, are you still alive?

Piaoxue's words made Shuang'er leave bitter tears:

Sister, it's me, I'm your little sister, Shuang'er...... Whining......

Piaoxue's eyes were also moist, and seeing Frost was like seeing her own mother. She hurriedly instructed Chu Yaowu to unlock Shuang'er's hand......
