Chapter 19: The Bright Heart and the Bright Moon
Lin Xiuran listened to the conversation between the old pavilion master and the elder Luo Ming, and his brows were deep.
He thought that it was Mingxin girl who broke into the treasury of Tianyin Pavilion this time, but it turned out that it was not her at all, but a demon beast of unknown origin.
And this demon beast actually took away the mysterious stone that was suspected to be the "Fragment of the Stone of Asking Dao".
This made Lin Xiuran unbearable.
He withdrew his thoughts from the old pavilion master's feet and jumped back into the living water.
The thought flowed down the waterway, to the outside of the Tianyin Pavilion, and went to the west of the city as Luo Ming said.
Lin Xiuran's thoughts swept all the way, and it was all kinds of trivial things in the world.
The old man draws water under the moonlit night, preparing to fill his water tank......
The beggar was homeless, sitting alone by the stream and playing with stones......
In the green building by the water, a beautiful girl is light and thin, smiling smartly, and a girl who pushes open the window is full of grievances, as if she is going to jump into the water in the next moment......
The newly married young woman, because of the poverty of her family, took advantage of the night to come to the water's edge surrounded by no one, stripped naked, naked, and waded into the water to bathe, she was frightened and frightened......
All kinds of images came to Lin Xiuran's mind, but Lin Xiuran never found the trace of the fox that Luo Ming said.
And further out, it is outside the city, his current strength is only a supreme grandmaster, and his thoughts can't go that far.
Lin Xiuran no longer moved forward, but put his thoughts on the west of the city, searching back and forth in it.
The old man filled several buckets with water, covered them with wooden boards, loaded them in a wheelbarrow, and pushed them back to his home......
The beggar threw another pebble into the water, and after a few splashes, the pebble sank into the water with a clatter, and was bored......
In the green building, the girl who was looking at the window climbed on the windowsill, jumped into the river, and the river flooded her head, but she did not struggle at all, and insisted on seeking death......
The newlywed young woman, who was washing herself by the dim stream, suddenly looked alarmedly at the shore. She thought it was a man who had come to peep secretly, clutching his chest and trying to find his clothes, but when she looked closely, she saw that the person on the shore was not a man, but a woman in white......
Lin Xiuran's brows furrowed.
The long sword in the hand of the girl in white is the green sword he lent to the girl Mingxin, the woman in white, although she can't really see her appearance because of the darkness on the shore, but her clothes and body are the same as the girl Mingxin, it can be determined that the woman in white is the girl Mingxin.
Lin Xiuran searched around, but the fox didn't find it, but he found the Mingxin girl in the desolate place of Shilipu in the west of the city.
This left him full of doubts.
She wasn't in Tianyin Pavilion, and when it was turned upside down by a fox, she rescued her sister and ran here to do it?
Lin Xiuran's thoughts were still about to step forward to study carefully, but he heard a heavy footstep outside the door of the banquet hall where his real body was.
It was the old pavilion master of Tianyin Pavilion who had returned.
Lin Xiuran's thoughts no longer continued to pursue forward, he took back his thoughts, returned to his true body, and opened his eyes.
Outside the door, the meaty old pavilion master just crossed the threshold and returned to the hall.
The old pavilion master sat down on his wide main seat, his face full of sadness.
It seems that this time the fox's disturbance has caused Tianyin Pavilion a lot of losses.
To make the old pavilion master of the rich country show such an appearance, I am afraid that there must be millions of silver, at least, if that mysterious stone is auctioned out, Tianyin Pavilion will earn a small amount of hundreds of thousands of taels, it is not a problem.
It's a pity that now there are only millions of taels to lose.
"Everyone, I'm really sorry, it's the negligence of the Pavilion that caused such chaos and frightened you. The old pavilion master said with a strong spirit.
Before the treasury caught fire, he wasn't so depressed.
It seems that tonight's fox really made Tianyin Pavilion fall.
The old man knew that most of the guests who came today came for the finale lot, the mysterious stone, but unfortunately, now the stone has been stolen by traitors, and most of the lots in the treasury have been burned, and there are only a few fine pieces left. ”
The old pavilion master didn't say that the thief was a fox, for fear that it would be too shocking, but only vaguely said that the traitor did it.
"If you are still interested, I will ask everyone to present it to you, and give you a detailed look, if you are not interested, you can also go by yourself, after all, it is my Tianyin Pavilion that is at fault first, no wonder everyone. ”
The words of the old pavilion master suddenly made the people in the hall who did not know the truth suspicious, and they couldn't help but talk about it.
Feng Wanli was okay, he rushed to the place where the incident occurred, and he should have understood some of the situation a long time ago, but the others were all taken aback.
The treasury of Tianyin Pavilion was stolen, and what was stolen was the finale of the auction, not only that, but that person also burned the treasury of Tianyin Pavilion, which was too shocking!
This is not only big news in Feng Mingcheng, but it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the big news of Chen Guo.
Feng Wanli didn't go to discuss with everyone, but walked in front of Lin Xiuran, his face was expressionless, and said, "Young Master Zhen, it seems that you don't have to answer my question." ”
"What's the matter? You gave up, knowing that my Rongguo Mansion is hugely wealthy, isn't it comparable to your Danyang City Feng family?"
Lin Xiuran said this on his lips, but in his heart he wondered why this wind and thousands of miles would say this.
The next moment, Feng Wanli answered the confusion in Lin Xiuran's heart.
He shook his head and said, "Speaking of which, Zhen Gongzi may be very sad, I'm afraid you will never be able to enjoy the blessings of twins and Qi people again." The bright moon girl is dead, dead at the hands of that traitor. ”
When Lin Xiuran heard this, he didn't say all the things that Feng Wanli said, and was about to divide into an idea, go to the Nafu Treasury to find out the truth, and see if what Feng Wanli said was true or false, when he saw two helpers from Tianyin Pavilion, carrying a corpse on a stretcher, and entered the banquet hall.
It was the corpse of a woman.
The corpse was dressed in a goose-yellow dress, with shackles on its hands and feet, and a huge wound on its throat, not by a sword, but by the claws of a beast.
And the woman's appearance is exactly the same as Miss Mingxin, even if Lin Xiuran has never seen Miss Mingyue, she should know that this is her.
And she's dead!
Lin Xiuran's face sank suddenly.
The scar was made by the claws of the beast, and the fox did it!
"Zhen Gongzi, what I want is the information in the woman's mouth, now that she is dead, it is worthless to me, although my Feng family has always been at odds with your Rongguo Mansion, but I don't want to be a villain, you take this corpse back for burial, I can't do anything to divide the corpse to vent my anger." ”
Feng Wanli hugged Lin Xiuran with a fist, and then hugged the old pavilion master and everyone in the hall, no longer stayed, and turned to leave.
Now that Miss Mingyue is dead, if he wants to find out who is behind the scenes, he can only work in other directions, and it is useless to stay here.
The old pavilion master saw the wind leaving, and then said: "Zhen Gongzi, I know the purpose of your visit this time, but I also blame the negligence of the pavilion and let the Mingyue girl die tragically, the old man is indeed a big mistake, but now that the pavilion is in chaos, the old man still has a lot of things to deal with, and he has no time to separate." Look at this, you take back the corpse of Miss Mingyue, and I will select ten outstanding ones from my dancing girls in Tianyin Pavilion, and send them to your mansion, and the right to make amends, how about it?"
Lin Xiuran looked at the Mingyue girl who died tragically on the stretcher, there was no expression on her face, and her face was cold, which made people afraid.
He knew that Tianyin Pavilion couldn't be blamed for this matter, but if he wanted to blame, he had to blame the fox who killed people and grabbed treasures.
He didn't plan to embarrass Tianyin Pavilion, but he didn't give them a good look.
Lin Xiuran said: "Old Pavilion Master, I'll take the corpses away, then the dancing girls, there is no need, those dancing girls are in my house, that is, there are only ten more dead corpses, just put them in your Tianyin Pavilion!"
After speaking, he walked to the stretcher, picked up the body of the bright moon girl on the stretcher, and walked out of the banquet hall without saying goodbye.
I don't know how heartbroken the cold girl will be after seeing her sister's corpse, if she can still hold that cold face?
That woman, I don't know if I can bear it?
Lin Xiuran came to the gate of Tianyin Pavilion, and there was already a carriage from the Rongguo Mansion waiting beside him.
He carried the bright moon girl into the carriage.
Sitting in the car, he gently laid her down, and easily crushed the iron shackles that locked her hands and feet, setting her free.
After doing this, he said to the coachman: "Go to the west of the city, ten miles shop." ”
"Yes...... It's ......"
When the coachman saw that his son-in-law was not good-looking, and saw that he was holding a dead body, he did not dare to say much, but just followed his instructions and rushed to the ten-mile shop in the west of the city.
The two white horses carried their hooves lightly, dragged the carriage, and hurried forward.
......
On the other side, the woman in white who was unconscious suddenly sat up from the ground and woke up.
On the side, the newlywed young woman who had already put on her clothes was taken aback by her move, took a few steps back, and almost fell to the ground.
"Sister...... Sister, who are you, what is your name, and how did you come here?" asked the newlywed young woman.
The girl in white had just woken up, a little confused.
She said, "I ...... My name is Mingxin!"
But then, she said, "I...... My name is Mingyue!"
After saying that, for some reason, she fainted again.
......
