Chapter 146: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
The drizzle stopped early in the night, so that when the sky cleared, there was not even a trace of rain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When Tang Ci woke up, he saw Ye Jinyi leaning on the faded railing, looking into the distance and not knowing what he was thinking.
"Big Brother Night. Tang Ci stood up, straightened out the slightly messy placket, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and stood beside Ye Jinyi.
"Did you sleep well?" Ye Jinyi's eyes didn't even blink, the expression on his face was as cold as ice, and the words he said were so flat that there was no trace of emotion.
"It's fine. Tang Ci stretched comfortably and replied.
Ye Jinyi turned around, glanced at Tang Ci, and said, "Then let's go, after taking the Weeping Blood Sword, we will leave here." ”
When Tang Ci heard this, he nodded a little indifferently and responded, "Okay." ”
Although the Lu family has long since declined, the Lu family is no less than those places like dungeons and secret rooms that ordinary martial arts families should have, so Ye Jinyi is not surprised at all about the long stone house that Lu Nian brought him to with almost no end.
The three of them walked through this deep place with torches, and only then did they bring a glimmer of light to this dark place, and although there was a lamp at intervals on the rough and hard stone wall, it was not lit, but there were many cobwebs.
Every time he saw a huge spider crawling among the dense cobwebs, Ye Jinyi couldn't help but shiver, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
It is precisely because of this that Ye Jinyi suddenly remembered Wei Qingxiao, and remembered the scene of the secret passage in Tianyin Pavilion with Wei Qingxiao, although they were not familiar with each other that day, they got along with each other quite happily, but today, why did they come to such an embarrassing situation.
Ye Jinyi felt a little headache, not only because of those crazy spiders, but also because of the annoying situation at this time.
The secret passage was so quiet that only the footsteps of the three of them echoed in this long place, and occasionally, Ye Jinyi would hear Lu Nian's cough in front of her.
"Master Lu, I'm afraid that my visit here will bring trouble to the Lu family. Ye Jinyi raised her head slightly, looked at Lu Nian's slightly weak back in front of her, and said softly.
When Lu Nian heard this, he chuckled lightly, and after a while, he spoke: "There are only three people in the Lu family now, why is there any trouble?"
Ye Jinyi looked at the steps under his feet, and said as he walked: "Lu Gongzi once said that there were people behind him, and now that Lu Gongzi will give me the Weeping Blood Sword, aren't you afraid-"
"Are you afraid that they will kill people and kill their mouths?" Lu Nian smiled again, and turned to look at Ye Jinyi directly, "You already know that the Weeping Blood Sword is here with me, and I also gave you this Weeping Blood Sword, wouldn't it be too late for them to kill people and kill their mouths?"
As long as you are alive, you will have the opportunity to tell the truth, and only the dead will not tell all this. Ye Jinyi said solemnly.
"Ye Gongzi, do you think that as long as the Weeping Blood Sword returns to the Imperial Sword Villa, who else will care about the mastermind behind the scenes? Besides, even if I say it, do you think others will believe it?" Lu Nian suddenly laughed as if he had heard some terrible joke, and couldn't help but bend down and cough violently.
Ye Jinyi's face became more and more serious, and even his voice had a hint of heaviness: "I care." ”
Before Lu Nian could react, Ye Jinyi said again: "The reason why you think no one will believe it is because the mastermind behind the scenes is one of the best heroes in the rivers and lakes, and has a certain status and reputation. If my guess is not bad, this person is Chu Zhongyue, the owner of Qingyue Mountain Villa. ”
Lu Nian frowned, looked at Ye Jinyi and said, "You-"
Ye Jinyi interrupted Lu Nian's words and said, "Remind Lu Gongzi that Bai Hua, the protector of Qingyue Mountain Villa, is already on his way to the Lu family, and he will be here soon." If Childe can still trust me, he will leave here with us. ”
"You're right, but alas, we're not here soon, we're already here, and we're still before you. ”
A thick and loud male voice suddenly came from the empty and dark secret passage, which made Ye Jinyi's heart suddenly feel a chill, as if the whole person suddenly fell into the ice hole, and her teeth fought coldly.
Lu Nian looked at the changing expression of Ye Jinyi, slowly retreated with a torch, and sighed as he retreated: "Ye Gongzi, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you in the future, this Crying Blood Sword is of great significance to the Lu family, I can't give it to you." ”
As Lu Nian slowly retreated, Bai Hua, who had been hidden in the dark, gradually appeared behind him, and the dim light did not add a touch of softness to Bai Hua's face, but made his face look even more hideous and terrifying.
The moment Tang Ci heard Bai Hua's voice, he hurriedly grabbed the sleeve of Ye Jinyi, and his body trembled.
Seeing Bai Hua showing a mocking smile, Ye Jinyi finally couldn't help but sigh and said, "It seems that I came one step late, Lu Gongzi, offended." ”
"I want to see, so far, what other tricks do you have in Ye Jinyi?" Bai Hua couldn't help but smile arrogantly, looking at Ye Jinyi's gaze as if he was looking at a trapped beast with no way out.
Ye Jinyi's face showed a depraved look, she smiled bitterly, and said, "What other tricks do I have?" Now, I want to ask you Bai Da Dharma Protector, what do you want to do with me?"
Bai Hua sneered: "I should have killed you on the spot, but the owner of my family is thinking of his old friend, and he must ask me to invite Ye Gongzi back to reminisce about the past." ”
Ye Jinyi chuckled lightly, and said with disdain: "Then it seems that I have to thank the owner of Chu Zhuang." ”
Bai Hua said proudly: "That's nature. ”
Ye Jinyi stroked the sword in his hand and said slowly: "I wonder if the White Protector has forgotten what happened before, which is why he is so arrogant." ”
When Bai Hua heard this, his hands trembled, and he almost couldn't even hold the knife in his hand a little unsteadily, so he only looked at Ye Jinyi vigilantly. He hadn't forgotten how evil Ye Jinyi's kung fu was.
Lu Nian seemed to feel the change in Bai Hua's breath, and said indifferently: "Bai Protector looks like he's scared. ”
Bai Hua turned his head sideways and said: "Lu Gongzi, don't underestimate the person in front of you, if she makes a move, we must not be opponents." ”
Lu Nian narrowed his eyes and said in a mocking tone: "Since Ye Gongzi is not easy to provoke, why do you still want to provoke him? Aren't you afraid of death?"
Bai Hua attached a cold smile to Lu Nian's ear and said, "That's because I know that Lu Gongzi must have a way to make him have no chance to make a move." ”
Lu Nian also smiled: "You are right. ”
Ye Jinyi's right hand was already clasped on the hilt of the sword, and he was about to pull the cold sword out of its sheath.
Seeing this, Bai Hua hurriedly said, "Master Lu, what are you waiting for?!"
