Chapter 18 The Jiang Family
Bai Xiaojian left the box and found that Steward Gou and his party had already left.
He walked out of Juxianglou and saw three or four filthy beggars with shaggy hair squatting on the side of the street.
He glanced at it, and immediately walked towards one of the little beggars with clear eyes and fairly clean clothes.
When!
Bai Xiaojian threw a tael of silver into the broken bowl in front of the little beggar.
Bite!
A cold prompt from the system immediately came to mind:
"Give a beggar a hand, and you will get a little merit. ”
Bai Xiaojian's heart moved, and he threw one or two pieces of silver into the broken bowl again.
This time, however, there was no response.
Bai Xiaojian thought secretly: "It seems that only the first charity will gain merit, but the second time it will be gone. ”
The little beggar saw that Bai Xiaojian threw two pieces of broken silver in a row, and thought that a third piece of broken silver would be thrown, and he was expecting Bai Xiaojian to throw the third piece of broken silver.
Bai Xiaojian smiled: "No, let me ask you, just now in the Juxiang Building, a group of people came out, one of them had a black mole on the corner of his mouth, where did they go?"
After pondering for a while, the little beggar said, "Master, the group you are talking about, but the second young man of the Jiang family and his family's housekeeper and nurse?"
"Not bad. Bai Xiaojian nodded.
The little beggar showed a cunning look: "Master, I not only know where they are going, but also where they have gone......"
Speaking of this, the little beggar picked up the broken bowl and actually stretched out the little sword again.
"Hmph, insatiable. Bai Xiaojian took out a piece of broken silver of five taels and pinched it in his hand: "You show me the way! If I can't find them, I will take back the silver in your bowl, and if I find it, these five taels of silver are yours!"
"Sir, please come with me. The little beggar hid the broken bowl and the broken silver on the ground in his bosom, then stood up and walked in one direction.
Bai Xiaojian followed the little beggar about ten meters behind, keeping a certain distance, so that when others saw it, they would not look eye-catching.
A few minutes later, the little beggar took Bai Xiaojian to the vicinity of a vast mansion.
On the gate of this mansion, there is a plaque with the word "Jiang Mansion" written on it.
Bai Xiaojian threw five taels of silver to the little beggar according to his promise, and then walked into a small alley nearby.
Outside the gate of Jiang's Mansion, there were two gatekeepers standing on both sides, worshipping Xiaojian in a stealth state, swaggering through the gate.
After entering the front yard of Jiang Mansion, Bai Xiaojian didn't go far, and at a glance, he saw that Steward Gou and seven or eight guards were pushing a pair of vermilion coffins vigorously.
When they pushed the coffin to the door of the backyard, some of the guards suddenly showed a look of horror, and their movements slowed down significantly.
Although Steward Gou did not show a terrifying expression, but there was a trace of panic in his eyes, although it was fleeting, he was clearly seen by Bai Xiaojian.
"There's quirkiness in there. Bai Xiaojian's heart moved, and he walked over to the group of Steward Gou.
Through the figure of Steward Gou and the guards, Bai Xiaojian vaguely saw that the paint on the vermilion coffin did not seem to be completely dry, and there seemed to be a faint sound of a woman crying inside.
Looking through the gate of the backyard, Bai Xiaojian saw that in the backyard, in a wide courtyard, there were rows of coffins!
Hiss!
Bai Xiaojian suddenly felt a trace of coldness hit his heart.
When Steward Gou and the eight guards finally put the coffin into the backyard, they immediately dropped the coffin and ran back, fearing that they would be half a beat slower than others.
When everyone came out, Steward Gou let out a long breath, closed the backyard gate tightly, but it was not locked, and then wiped his sweat and walked to a side room.
Bai Xiaojian tiptoed behind Steward Gou.
When Steward Gou entered the room and closed the door, Bai Xiaojian suddenly disappeared from behind Steward Gou, and put the evil sword on his neck silently, and at the same time shouted in a low voice: "If you dare to scream, you will die!"
Steward Gou immediately trembled with fright, and his body was wet, but he was very obedient and did not scream.
Bai Xiaojian held the sword and slowly turned to the opposite side of Steward Gou.
Steward Gou was suddenly shocked, and couldn't help but whisper, "It's you?"
Bai Xiaojian smiled: "I didn't expect that I would come to the door." ”
Steward Gou's face turned pale, and he wanted to cry without tears: "All this is instructed by the second young master, it has nothing to do with the villain, the villain is just an errand errand, as the so-called injustice has a debtor and a master, the hero should go to the second young master for revenge." ”
Bai Xiaojian laughed: "What a dog minion, but he blames all the blame on your master, then let me ask you, what is your purpose in framing Ning Cheng? ”
With that, he flicked his wrist slightly.
Steward Gou suddenly noticed that the tip of the sword at his neck moved forward a little, cutting a shallow fine mark on the skin on his throat.
Steward Gou was so frightened that he hurriedly moved his neck back an inch before he was sweating profusely and said:
"It was the second young master who saw the woman next to the hero, and had evil thoughts in his heart, the second young master has always been cautious, because he didn't know the background of the hero, so he hinted that the villain framed Ning Cheng to test the details of the hero, but he kicked the iron plate of the hero, and he didn't expect the hero to kill him! Alas, I knew this, even if I gave the villain 10,000 guts, I didn't dare to offend the hero. ”
Seeing that there was no loosening on Bai Xiaojian's face, Steward Gou suddenly made an expression of righteous words and righteous annihilation: "If the hero spares the villain's life, the villain will definitely abandon the darkness and turn to the light, lead the way for the hero, and go to find out the culprit The second young master, so as to atone for the crime, I just hope that afterwards, the hero can take the villain under his command, and let the villain serve the hero." ”
Bai Xiaojian snorted coldly in his heart, but his face softened: "So, where is he now?"
Steward Gou looked happy: "The second young master is now in the ancestral house in the backyard, but there are some evil sects there, although the villain is the housekeeper of the second young master, he has never entered the ancestral house in the backyard." ”
Bai Xiaojian showed a rather interested look: "There are some evil sects, then tell me, what kind of evil sect method." ”
After the parents took a breath, their voices trembled a little: "In the flat ground of the backyard, hundreds of coffins are filled with the orders of the second young master, and every night, you can hear strange noises coming from some coffins...... This is not the most evil door, the most evil door is the ancestral house in the backyard, every time the moon is full, you can see a figure, kick it, you can jump to the roof of the ancestral house, facing the full moon, standing for most of the night, so that after the family in our front yard saw it, people were panicked, if it weren't for the salary offered by the second young master, it was several times that of other people's families, we would have left the Jiang family to find another way. ”
"Oh?" Bai Xiaojian frowned, always feeling that there was something wrong with this housekeeper's words.
Moreover, such a person who sells for glory cannot stay by his side to serve.
In this case, it is better to kill it and get some merit points.
Thinking of this, Bai Xiaojian's wrist immediately shook, and the long sword in his hand pierced the sun like a long rainbow, instantly piercing Gou's throat.
Steward Gou looked in disbelief, and finally covered his throat and fell backwards.
Bite!
The cold voice of the system suddenly sounded in my head:
"Kill a person who hurts nature and reason, and you will get 30 merit points. ”
"Current merit value: 116. ”
"Honor: small virtue. Perception plus five. ”
