Chapter 184: Chaos
Beiyu Town Penglai Inn
As the night grew darker, the wind was blowing outside, the windows were creaking, the flames were shaking violently, and the heat of the stove was no longer enough to withstand the cold. Li Zifeng sat at the wooden table, took a pen and wrote down the large accounts between Hongyuan Villa and Wei'an City, as well as the name of the money bank, 'Hongtai Money Village'.
"It's a shame that you can remember!" Shen Hongfei finished baking the fire, rubbed his hands and sat aside, and poured another cup of hot water.
Li Zifeng put down his pen, blew the ink that had not dried, and sighed, "Time is pressing, I don't know if I remember it right, but it doesn't matter, what matters is the flow of the money and the money." ”
Shen Hongfei's face was worried, "You want to continue to use your disguise technique to check this money house in Wei'an City?"
"And then?" Li Zifeng looked at Shen Hongfei playfully, "Before we stepped out of the Qian Village, we were already secretly divided by the killers they raised." ”
Shen Hongfei turned his head in annoyance, and Li Zifeng continued, "Even if you go to Wei'an City, you don't necessarily have to go to this money village, and besides, if you talk about such a big matter, why don't I have to discuss it with my Uncle Shen?"
Shen Hongfei raised his eyebrows, "What about here?"
"I've left a few shadow guards to keep watching. ”
"Hehe..."Shen Hongfei smiled evilly, "Didn't you say that you miss your cousin? Don't you ask her out to meet?
Li Zifeng patted Shen Hongfei's shoulder fiercely, "I can't suffocate you if I don't say a few words!"
"Hahahaha......" Shen Hongfei couldn't help laughing again.
Li Zifeng was not infected by Shen Hongfei's laughter, and when he mentioned Su Kexin, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. What did she go through, why did she join the Lingye Palace and become a Dharma protector, but Li Muyang didn't realize it?
Shen Hongfei guessed Li Zifeng's thoughts, and said softly, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to investigate this matter." ”
Li Zifeng was slightly stunned, then came back to his senses and sighed heavily, "Then there is Brother Lao Shen." Drinking a glass of water that was already warm and cold made the chill in my heart even heavier.
The next morning, the sky was only a faint white of the fish's belly, the streets were still cold, and the scattered breakfast shops had already set up their stalls and started to make a living, and the steaming heat was quickly blown away in the cold wind.
Li Zifeng and Shen Hongfei got up early in the morning, hurriedly drank a bowl of porridge, and then packed up and prepared to leave.
Hung Yuen Villa
It seems to be a peaceful scene, and the morning light shines in repeatedly, sprinkling faint light and shadow in the inner hall, the inner hall is on fire, and the faint sandalwood slowly spreads, making people feel comfortable in the winter morning.
On the round table carved by mahogany, Li Muyang, Ke Zhen'er, Li Shijie and Su Kexin were having breakfast. Steamed buns, lean porridge, desserts, and sweet soups are all available, and they are very hearty, but the atmosphere is a little quiet. There was no sound at the table except for the clashing of chopsticks and dishes and the sound of breathing.
Li Muyang finished eating first, and after putting down his chopsticks, he wiped his mouth with a hand towel, looked at Li Shijie, who was drinking porridge with a stuffy head on the side, and said, "Today, you will leave for Wei'an City, and by the way, you will stare at the silver taels." ”
Li Shijie let out a faint 'oh', he had long been accustomed to this kind of task that came as soon as he said it, at this time, Su Kexin seemed to have found a reason to go out and play, and looked straight at Li Muyang, "Uncle, I also want to go with my cousin." ”
Li Shijie's hand was stunned, and the porridge soup in the porcelain spoon almost spilled out, Li Muyang couldn't help frowning, "Nonsense... Your cousin is going to do business, what are you going to do with a girl?!"
Ke Zhen'er smiled, "But the heart has been held in the villa for a long time, and it's good to go out to breathe." ”
Li Shijie raised his eyes to look at Li Muyang, then at Su Kexin, and pushed the boat down the river, "Dad, it won't take long to get down to business, my cousin is young, it's the age of fun, if she wants to go, let him go, with her son here, what are you worried about?" Li Shijie's eyes were slightly deep, it's okay to go, just see what you want to do.
Li Muyang didn't seem to notice anything unusual, just stared at the mother and son who were helping, his brows were furrowed, but his eyes were full of spoiling, "You guys are used to her! A big girl in her early twenties, so many people come to the door to propose marriage, no one can look down on her, and she is so crazy, how can you marry in the future?"
"Oh, uncle!" Su Kexin suddenly blushed.
Li Shijie frowned slightly, looking at Su Kexin's shy face flushed, and once suspected that what he saw that night was just a person who was exactly the same as Su Kexin's head, and sighed in his heart with two faces.
Approaching noon, the cold air in the mountains is not abating, the sun is blocked by the branches, Li Shijie and Su Kexin are leading the horses, down the winding mountain road, except for the sound of the cold wind blowing through the branches, there is no other sound along the way.
Li Shijie stopped, untied the steamed bun and water bag from the horse and handed it to Su Kexin, "Are you hungry?
"Oh. Su Kexin took the dry food and devoured it, losing the dignity that a big lady should have.
Li Shijie's eyebrows were deep, although Su Kexin hid it well, he also inadvertently revealed flaws in his eating demeanor, Li Shijie clearly remembered that this was the state that only when the killer went out to perform a mission and ate in a hurry.
"Eat slowly, and no one will rob you. Going out is no better than at home, you can only make do. ”
"Mmmmmm..." Su Kexin nodded vigorously again and again, swallowed the steamed bun in his mouth, wiped the corners of his mouth, and poured a few mouthfuls of water, before he eased up after a while, "But I'm starving." Huh, cousin, aren't you going to eat it?"
"I'm not hungry. Li Shijie untied the reins tied to the tree, "I often go out, and I am used to not eating at noon, okay, let's go!"
Three days later, Yeyang City
When Li Zifeng stepped in, he saw Shen Zhiping looking at him with a smile, and a smile emanating from between his eyebrows, "Are you back?"
"Hmm. Li Zifeng was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Uncle Shi, who are you?"
Shen Zhiping pulled Li Zifeng to sit down, and the waiter left after serving a cup of tea. Shen Zhiping cleared his throat, "Not long after you left a few days ago, your master came over to ask me about your current situation. ”
Hearing the words "your master", the light in Li Zifeng's eyes went out, and his expression was a little ugly, "Does the head have any tasks that need to be taken personally?"
Shen Zhiping pretended to ignore the deliberately alienated title in his words, played with the delicate teacup, and said in an indifferent tone, "He said that you didn't go back for a long time, which made him a little worried." ”
Li Zifeng frowned, took a sip of bitter tea, and a chill appeared in his eyes, "If you can't get my movements, the head is not at ease?"
"Senior nephew!" Shen Zhiping saw him like this, but he didn't mean to blame at all, and his heart was full of distress. Sighing helplessly, he said, "The head should be in Wei'an City at this time." ”
"Wei Ancheng?" Li Zifeng said suspiciously, a few days ago, I heard Shen Hongfei say that Ouyang Ze had a big hand behind his back, and he was in a high position, this time he didn't take some orders, and he took his own body, thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "The head of the family went by himself, can you bring your entourage?"
Shen Zhiping looked at him amusedly, "Don't worry, the head of the house is very safe now." Oh yes. Your trip to Beiyu Town went smoothly?"
Li Zifeng looked outside, and saw that the doors and windows were closed and no one was moving, so he took out the things he had recorded from his visit to the Xiangyun Inn and handed them to Shen Zhiping, and after taking a sip of tea, he spoke eloquently
After a stick of incense, he can finish speaking. After hearing this, Shen Zhiping's expression was solemn, "This matter is very important, you must be cautious, I also sent people to Wei'an City to inquire about the news before, presumably there will be news back in a while." ”
At this time, Shen Yu, the shadow guard who was left by Li Zifeng near Hongyuan Villa, came to Qingsong Hall to look for Li Zifeng, and brought back new news: Li Shijie and Su Kexin left Hongyuan Villa together!
At the same time, the people sent out by Shen Zhiping sent back the news in the form of flying pigeons: Li Shijie and Su Kexin entered Wei'an City together!
