Chapter 45: Accidents
Shopkeeper Zhao's expression became solemn, and he said, "The young master has a holiday with Lu Yun?"
Ji Yu said: "I have only heard of him in the past two days. Then he told him about what happened in the Gu Mansion yesterday.
Shopkeeper Zhao stroked his beard and said: "That's it, the young master's suspicion is indeed not groundless, the little dare to ask, is the young master's life-sustaining technique true?"
Ji Xiao smiled slightly and said, "It's fake, it's just to let Miss Gu have less gossip." As for how Gu Weirui came back from the dead, Ji Xiao would not tell Shopkeeper Zhao too clearly.
Shopkeeper Zhao said: "Actually, whether it's true or fake, the young master has to be careful, to be honest, this matter is very tricky." I recently got the news that I heard that the Baiyun Villa of the little marquis of Na Lu has been secretly looking for all kinds of strange life-saving recipes recently, and even some witch wishes have been sought by them. Therefore, the young master mentioned this matter, no matter from the perspective of ability and motive, this matter is related to Baiyun Villa. He then explained Lu Yun's deeds, and pointed out that Lu Yun has a brilliant kung fu, and he is by no means a simple child of a family.
There are not many people in the rivers and lakes that Lu Yunming has friends with, but whether it is Fayun, the presiding officer of Xiangguo Temple, or the deadwood Taoist of the Qixia faction, they are all friends with Lu Yun.
When Ji Yu got this information, he knew that this person was simply an upgraded version of his current identity, and if he was still the original owner of the body, he would not have much advantage compared to the other party.
In the end, Shopkeeper Zhao sighed: "Speaking of which, the little one can know so much about Lu Xiaohouye, and it is also related to a strange thing, the young master can know that Yu Changfeng, the chief dart head of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, suddenly fell ill and died two years ago. “
Ji Xiao said: "I have heard a little about this matter, that Yu Changfeng's Weiyuan Dart Game was originally the No. 1 Dart Game in Jiangzuo, and Yu Changfeng's own Changfeng Swordsmanship has rarely encountered opponents for decades, so it has created a huge industry of Weiyuan Dart Bureau." He was only fifty years old two years ago, and as far as martial arts practitioners are concerned, it was the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, but he suddenly fell ill and died, which is really suspicious. But Yu Changfeng's descendants were not good at martial arts, and after his death, the Changfeng Dart Bureau was also defeated, and there was no such thing as the weather. ”
Zhao shopkeeper said: "It's not a secret, Yu Changfeng and Xiao had a fateful relationship, so Xiao suspected the cause of his death and secretly traced it, but found that Yu Changfeng had been in and out of the same painting boat with Lu Xiaohou that day, which could also be regarded as a coincidence, but a popular girl who accompanied Lu Xiaohou that day also died of illness soon after, I have since traced it, only to find that when Lu Xiaohou and the girl were warm, they left for a period of time in between. ”
Ji Yu asked: "Yu Changfeng died of a violent illness at that time, but Lu Yun was born in the Jiangzuo clan and a son of a high-ranking lord, how could he have a deep hatred with Yu Changfeng, and where was his motive?"
Shopkeeper Zhao said: "This matter involves another force, after Yu Changfeng's death, the property of Weiyuan Dart Bureau was gradually swallowed up by a force in the capital, and behind that force should be the current Seven Princes, and Yu Changfeng's daughter married the second son of the prince's nurse." ”
After Ji Yu heard the Seven Princes, his heart moved, because the forces behind letting Gu Weirui make the Immortal Powder were related to the Seven Princes, and now that the twenty-four solar terms had disappeared, he thought that he would no longer be involved in the forces of the Seven Princes, but he didn't expect that there would be a wonderful connection again.
Since Shopkeeper Zhao said this, he was naturally very sure that Lu Yun had something to do with the Seventh Prince.
Ji Xiao said: "You found out here, you shouldn't have continued." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao said: "Of course, the little one doesn't dare to continue to investigate, otherwise my life will be difficult to save, and I will have to involve the villa." However, because I know those secrets, the little one has to pay more attention to the movements of Baiyun Villa, lest one day that one day he will come to deal with me, and I will be defenseless. When the young master asked today, I naturally couldn't hide it, so as not to let the young master make a wrong judgment and cause trouble. ”
Ji Xiao smiled and said: "Lao Zhao, you can find out this news by yourself, it can be seen that you are indeed a talent, I remember that your ancestor originally held an important position in the Imperial Court Inspection Department, and later committed a crime, so he fell into the middle of the road and gave us Four Seasons Villa to do things, to be honest, my family did not give you a chance to show your skills." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao is even more impressed by Ji Liao, he has always been low-key in charge of various places in Four Seasons Villa, but he didn't expect Ji Yu to still be clear about his origins. He said: "Back then, my family was bullied, and it was all up to the old lady to take it in, so that I could have a stable life, and my father also told me to do things well for the villa, and the little one had no other thoughts." ”
Ji Xiao smiled and said: "I don't doubt your meaning, when I go back to the villa, you can go with me, your family can stay here if you want, or go to Cangzhou, please don't refuse." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao hesitated: "The young master has orders, and the little ones obey orders." ”
Ji Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't be afraid of too many things in the villa, I recently accepted a servant, in the future, I want him to help me deal with some mundane affairs, please go, there is also the meaning of letting him learn to do things with you, and it can also help you reduce your burden." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao is relieved, after all, he has never moved around with the young master, if he suddenly takes on a big responsibility, it will be suspicious, if it is to help the young master cultivate henchmen, it will be reasonable.
Ji Xiao's servant is naturally Zhuo Qing, he has the wisdom of knowing people, although Zhuo Qing is a country boy, but he belongs to the category that can be trained, not to mention that he has learned the dragon stinging skill, and in the future, he will be a big helper of the villa.
Shopkeeper Zhao said again: "I don't know how the young master wants to deal with the current trouble." ”
Ji Xiao said: "If you come, you will be safe, even if this Lu Xiaohou is a dragon among people, but I think he will be more anxious than me, otherwise he would not have sent someone last night." ”
Shopkeeper Zhao said: "If the young master finds out that something is wrong, he must leave decisively, after all, this is Jiang Zuo, the power of the Lu family, we can't compare at all." ”
Ji Xiao nodded and said, "I can save it." ”
It didn't take long for Ji Xiao to leave the grain and oil shop. The place on the left side of the river is the city and the canals are criss-crossed. The soft language of the water town sounds like a different flavor.
Seeing that it was not too late, he planned to find a jewelry store and pick out a piece of jewelry for the girl, and give it to her in the evening, and she would surely be happy. Later, he found a store and picked out a pair of delicate silver earrings in the store.
Waiting for the store to package the things, Ji Xiao left the store, and went back in the direction of Gu's house, at this time it was getting dark, everyone rushed to the house, bustling, all kinds of smells came, Ji Xiao's nose was sensitive, quite uncomfortable. He thought about whether to perform light skills, and walked away from the wall.
Suddenly, Ji Xiao had a strange feeling, he casually pointed out a finger, and his strength was intense, piercing a person's sleeve.
A jewelry box slipped out of the man's cuff, and the man reacted quickly and kicked the box away, causing it to leap high, and the man rose to the sky, jumping onto the roof on the other side like a ghost.
