Chapter 23: A Blessing in Disguise

The neighbors in the town are all grateful for the kindness of Yanfu, and they are dragged down by their own children, so that the little young master of Yanfu, Brother Fang, is buried in the belly of a bear, and there are no bones. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If there are three long and two short, I am afraid that it will not be tolerated by the neighbors, and all of them will be expelled from Qingyuan Town and buried in other places.

Uncle Blacksmith, Fat Aunt and others were ruthless, tied Tie Sheng Xiaomo and other naughty children to the back mountain, and let them die in Xiongkou, which can be regarded as giving an explanation to Yanfu and neighbors to block the tongue of the people. In the end, he was born flesh and blood, and his blood was connected, and in the dead of night, his heart was as painful as a knife, and he passed away one after another with depression.

When the fat aunt suddenly saw Fang Baiyi, she suddenly remembered her posthumous son Xiao Mo, sitting on the street and crying bitterly. Although he was happy that Yan Fu had a queen, he was also more sentimental about Xiao Mo's early cold.

Now that he heard Fang Baiyi say that Tie Sheng was not dead, he immediately said urgently: "What about Xiao Mo? Little young master, have you ever seen my Xiao Mo? Is he still alive?"

There was a look of hope in his eyes, but there was also a deep fear, lest he hear bad news from Fang Baiyi's mouth.

Fang Baiyi has been missing for fifteen years, and now he has returned safely, if Tie Sheng Xiaomo and the others escaped with their lives back then, and now they are also adults, and the mother and son can be reunited, it is really a great joy.

Shaking his head slowly, Fang Baiyi sighed secretly, and said: "I have only seen Tie Sheng, but Xiao Mo and the others have never seen it, but I think that since Tie Sheng is still alive, presumably Xiao Mo and the others may not die, fat aunt rest assured, I will pay more attention in the future, I hope to reunite your mother and son as soon as possible." ”

The fat aunt was grateful, and thanked her again and again, but it made Fang Baiyi secretly sad, if it weren't for him, how could Tie Sheng Xiaomo and other playmates be so abused.

As he spoke, the shopkeeper of the town inn walked in quickly.

However, it was Kou Zheyuan, the prefect of Jiangzhou, who took a carriage and rushed to Qingyuan Town, specially came to inform him, and the people in the neighborhood went to greet him.

After Yan Leshi was killed, in order to mourn his virtue, Qingyuan Town no longer set up the Lizheng Pavilion Chief, and the senatorial council was formed by the people in the town to govern the affairs of Qingyuan Town. Among the neighborhoods, there are many members of the Senate, and when the Jiangzhou prefect is coming, the Senate should go to the official road outside the town to greet them.

Fang Baiyi got up and wanted to go with the neighbors, but Fu Xiangning stopped him, gave a look to the little pitiful, and pulled Fang Baiyi to sit in the hall by himself.

The little pitiful understood, and left quickly, all the neighbors were surprised, and secretly guessed where Fu Xiangning came from.

The prefect of Jiangzhou, as a member of the imperial court, only sent a maid ring to greet him, which was too big. It's just that the time is urgent, but I don't care about asking more, so I leave Yan's mansion, and go to the official road outside the town to wait for the prefect.

Fang Baiyi stood outside the gate of Yan's Mansion, looking at Kou Zheyuan, the prefect of Jiangzhou, surrounded by all the neighbors, walking from the end of the street, hurriedly stepped forward, and said: "The grass people Fang Baiyi has seen the prefect, thanks to the love of Lord Kou, the Yan Mansion can be preserved, and Fang Baiyi is here to thank you." ”

After that, he lifted his robe and was about to kneel down and kowtow, but he was supported by Kou Zheyuan's hands, looking at Fang Baiyi, he couldn't help but think of Yan Leshi, and suddenly his eyes were full of tears, and he sighed.

Entering the house, he made a big bow in the main hall to pay homage to the golden plaque given by the saint today, and greeted Fu Xiangning.

But he was warned by the little pity not to reveal the identity of the princess in the Yan Mansion, bowed down, and claimed to have seen the young lady, which also shocked the neighbors and neighbors.

Humility sat down, and the elders of the neighborhood accompanied each other in the last seat.

The fat aunt and the others left first, and the innkeeper began to rectify the wine and food, celebrating Fang Baiyi's safe return.

Fang Baiyi asked about the prefect's intentions, Kou Zheyuan looked ashamed, sighed gloomily, and said: "Fang Gongzi, when the Yan Mansion suffered this unprovoked disaster, only the old servant Yan Hong was left, who donated the Yan Mansion's family business to the government, hoping that the official could save the Miss Yan family and arrest the murderer to avenge the Yan Gong couple, but the official was incompetent, and he has not been able to solve the case so far, and he is ashamed of Yan Gong's spirit in the sky." ”

Sighing secretly, Fang Baiyi shook his head slowly, and said: "Master Kou, don't blame yourself, I'm afraid this case is not committed by ordinary bandits and robbers, it may be a revenge in the rivers and lakes, and there is no way to find out the head of the fast knife in the yamen, which is also understandable." ”

According to the town's husband, more than ten black-clothed people come and go like the wind, all of them are masters of the rivers and lakes. It's okay to catch thieves with a quick knife, but if you deal with such a master, I'm afraid you can't do it.

"Not bad!"

Kou Zheyuan nodded in agreement, and said: "According to the results of the autopsy, the whole Yan Mansion died under the sword, the sword body is thin, slightly longer than the ordinary long sword, the angle of the attack is tricky, and the speed is extremely fast, it is speculated that the perpetrator is very likely to be a full-time killer." ”

Speaking of this, he raised his hand to signal the official standing behind him, and presented the case file in his hand. But when he saw Fang Baiyi showing his martial arts in the mansion, he knew that he was an extraordinary person, and he would definitely pursue the case and take revenge, and Princess Ningxiang was involved in it, so he brought the case file of the year and hurried to Yan's mansion.

Kou Zheyuan continued: "Young Master Fang, this is all the files of the Yan Mansion tragedy back then, maybe it can be helpful, and I also ask Young Master Fang to take a look." ”

Fang Baiyi took the file and thanked him.

Before he could open it and take a closer look, he heard Kou Zheyuan sigh and said: "Back then, there was no owner of Yan Mansion, in order to avoid scheming rats from watching the Yan Mansion industry, this official accepted Yan Hong's donation, and the government came forward to send people to take care of many businesses. ”

Speaking of this, he groaned slightly, and continued: "It's just that the surplus in recent years has been used to offset the taxes and forced labor in Qingyuan Town and build the Oxfam Academy, and there is not much left, and it cannot be returned, I hope that Fang Gongzi will forgive me." ”

Fang Baiyi hurriedly said: "Lord Kou, the whereabouts of my mother are unknown, I don't know my life and death, Fang Baiyi, as a son of man, should run around the rivers and lakes to find the whereabouts of my mother, I am afraid that I have no time to take care of it, and I ask Lord Kou to bother, and still deal with it according to the previous number, if you are lucky enough to find your mother, your mother will decide to stay when the time comes." ”

The elders of the neighborhood got up one after another, thanked Fang Baiyi, and secretly praised the benevolence and righteousness of Yanfu in their hearts, and Ze was neighbored.

In recent years, benefiting from the remnants of the Yan Mansion, all of them have been exempted from taxes and forced labor, and the neighbors have all been concerned about the kindness of the Yan Mansion and carefully taken care of the Yan Mansion House, which is not a meaning of repaying the kindness.

Fang Baiyi was humble, but he was greeted by Fu Xiangning, opened the file by himself, and flipped through them one by one. The dossier is extremely detailed, and almost the entire scene of the crime is restored.

Seeing the drawings in it, detailing the posture of the dead, the depth of the shape of the wound, vividly remembered, as if it happened in front of the eyes, as if seeing blood splashing and hearing the screams of the deceased. Fang Baiyi couldn't help but burst into tears, his heart fluctuated, he was frantic and sad, he hurriedly took a deep breath and suppressed the true qi surging in his body.

After a long time, I abandoned the distractions in my heart and concentrated on checking it. According to the dossier, the murderer's sword orientation technique appeared in his mind, but his thick eyebrows were furrowed, and there was a puzzled look in his eyes.

Frightened and inexplicable in his heart, the murderer used the angle of the sword to guess his technique, and he actually felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it before.

At the end of the file, it was a figure of the murderer drawn according to the description of the husband of Qingyuan Town. Wrapped in black, with a half-body cloak hanging behind his back, and a hat, a shoulder-length black veil hanging to cover his face, he was a black-clothed man who appeared in the ruined temple of the inn and asked Fang Baiyi for a delicate mechanism.

Unknown origin!

Fang Baiyi stood up, the glint in his eyes burst out, and the killing intent was terrifying, which made Kou Zheyuan and the others frightened inexplicably.

The momentum was terrifying, his body was like a sifting chaff, he almost collapsed on his seat, his eyes were full of horror, as if he was in a wolf's den, falling into an endless nightmare, but he couldn't move.

"...... in White"

Fu Xiangning was secretly frightened, for some reason, it actually caused Fang Baiyi to burst out with such a chilling murderous intent, hurriedly got up, held Fang Baiyi's arm, and said. The little pitiful and the unaffordable are also looking at each other, not knowing why.

Inhaled slowly, suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and his breath was restrained, which made Kou Zheyuan and the others feel relieved, but they were already in a cold sweat.

Fang Baiyi's eyes were cold, and he didn't speak, but just handed the figure in his hand to Fu Xiangning. After Fu Xiangning looked at it, a cold glow erupted in his eyes, and the killing intent loomed, Huo Di looked up at Fang Baiyi, his voice was cold, and said: "It's them? The black-clothed man who committed suicide by poisoning himself in the inn! They are the murderers!"

Nodding slowly, Fang Baiyi said in a deep voice: "According to the file, the long sword they used matches the wound of the deceased, even if it is not the same batch of people, the organization behind them cannot escape the suspicion." ”

"It's a pity that the origin of these men in black is unknown......"

Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly shone brightly, and there was a faint sense of happiness in his expression, Fu Xiangning had already blurted out and said, "Linglong Organ!"

Master Yanhui invited him to set up a delicate mechanism, so that Fang Baiyi was deeply trapped in the whirlpool of rivers and lakes, and characters from all walks of life came to him, and they all wanted to replace him. I planned to make it public to the world, get out of the disputes in the rivers and lakes, and reunite with my family, but the peak protruded, the Yan Mansion was tragically destroyed, and the whereabouts of my mother are unknown.

The black-clothed man who is suspected of being a murderer appeared and came for the Linglong Agency, if he uses it, he may be able to use this to lure out the real murderer behind him and avenge the Yan Mansion.

"Not bad!"

With a gloomy expression and cold eyes, Fang Baiyi said slowly: "For the sake of the Linglong mechanism, they will definitely appear again and commit suicide by taking poison?" Don't even think about it again, I want them to live in fear in the next life, and even the next life, and regret going to the world to go this way." ”

The voice was full of evil and treacherous meaning, his eyes were vicious, obviously his mind was lost, and the devil was growing, so shocked that Fu Xiangning's delicate face changed color, and his eyes were full of fear, but he was helpless.

If he couldn't wake up Fang Baiyi in time, he was afraid that he would fall into a demonic obstacle from then on, so that his heart would change greatly, and he would act viciously and do everything.

"Duh!"

At this moment, it was Kou Zheyuan, the prefect of Jiangzhou, who stood up, his body straight, his eyes were righteous and awe-inspiring, and he shouted: "Hongmeng is righteous, and heaven and earth are invisible." The clear ones are the sun and the moon, and the turbid ones are the rivers and mountains. Its name is Haoran, Peihu is full of darkness, the emperor is clear, and the heavens are swallowed and the gods are ......"

The weak body, but there is a majestic breath permeated, like a towering mountain, the voice is low, but it sounded in Fang Baiyi's mind like thunder, and in an instant, the spiritual platform was empty, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

Trapped in the underground labyrinth for fifteen years, although it is to practice qi and cultivate nature, no joy and no evil, no anger and no anger, the heart is free and indifferent, quite transcendent, but it is also lonely, lonely and difficult to cross, fifteen years without seeing the light of day, exhausted.

After getting out of trouble, galloping in the mountains and forests, breathing in the morning sun, breathing and breathing, breathing true qi, and the convergence of yin and yang in the body, it has made great improvements.

However, he was suddenly subjected to this tragic change, so that his heart was agitated, his spirit was lost, and he almost went mad. If it weren't for Kou Zheyuan's official righteousness, he had Confucian righteousness, drank it as a stick, and woke up Fang Baiyi with a righteous qi trick, the consequences would be unimaginable, at least he would fall into the devil's way, bloodthirsty and easy to kill, or at worst, his heart would be broken, and he would die of anger.

Fang Baiyi secretly shouted that it was dangerous, and he didn't care about thanking Kou Zheyuan, sat down cross-legged, silently used Xuangong to breathe the muscles and veins in his body, and soon he had entered the realm of forgetting things and me.

The fright was excessive, Fu Xiang was sweating, her delicate body was shaking and she could barely stand, Xiao Pitian hurriedly helped her to her seat to rest, and invited Kou Zheyuan and the neighborhood elders out of the main hall.

Kou Zheyuan knew the stakes and warned the neighborhood elders not to enter to disturb them, and the government had other official business to do, so he left on his own.

The elders of the neighborhood did not know why, looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed, and dispersed.

Fang Baiyi entered the meditation this time, but he didn't wake up until the evening. The eyes opened, like two lightning bolts, almost splitting the air, and then disappeared, and the eyes were full of brilliance, wanting to be crystalline.

Standing up, but the thick eyebrows were frowning, the end of the nose smelled a foul smell, and Fu Xiangning also covered her nose with her hands, and her face was strange.

When I rolled up my sleeves, I saw that my arms were stained with a black sticky substance, which was extremely smelly. Suddenly felt unbearable itching on his body, and his figure swayed slightly, and he had stepped out of the main hall and went straight to the backyard.

Remove your clothes, pour water from the well, and pour it on your head.

It took half an hour to wash the whole body and change into clean clothes. The super-dusty breath rippled out, looking more and more ethereal and dusty, the skin was crystal clear, emitting a jade-like brilliance, and the body exuded a faint fragrance, reaching the end of the nose, floating like a fairy.

But it is a blessing in disguise, martial arts cultivation is more sophisticated, and it is one step closer to the innate realm, although it is still wandering outside the door, but it has a clear understanding, and it faintly touches the road in the future.

In recent years, the true qi has been running for 12 weeks, and I always feel sluggish, as if there are barriers to hindering, and when life goes up and down, joys and sorrows, it has suddenly become clear, and the operation of true qi has not been sluggish at all.

At this time, the fat aunt had already delivered the wine and food, and Fang Baiyi and the others did not eat the rice at noon, and the neighbors were all worried. Hearing the sound, the fat aunt looked back, but she was secretly stunned, and vaguely felt that Fang Baiyi was different from before, but there was a difference, and she didn't understand it, but she just felt it.

Fu Xiangning and the others knew that Fang Baiyi was a blessing in disguise, his skills were more refined, and his martial arts cultivation was greatly advanced, so they were all happy for him.

Floating out of the dust, the tip of his nose smelled the light aroma emanating from Fang Baiyi's body. Fu Xiangning's eyes bloomed with brilliance, and her eyes frequently glanced at Fang Baiyi who was sitting beside her, with continuous affection, but it made the little poor drop her head and snicker.

The fat aunt looked at it in her eyes and felt very relieved. The little young master is outstanding, handsome and elegant, but only Fu Xiangning's alluring posture can match.

After the meal, the fat aunt accompanied each other, and Fu Xiangning and others had tea in the main hall.

Fang Baiyi came to Yan Hong's room and asked himself: "Uncle Yan, today in front of the public, I don't want to ask more, now there are only you and me, how much do you know about your father, please tell me the truth." ”

"Little master, it's not that the old slave deliberately hides it, but I really don't know, alas, ......" Yan Hong smiled bitterly and sighed. Now, tell the truth what you know.

Yan Hong is not surnamed Yan, but surnamed Zheng, lonely and helpless, no one knows his name, and everyone calls him Lao Zheng. He walked the rivers and lakes with the troupe all the year round, and he didn't want to be seriously ill, so he abandoned the side of the road for the troupe owner. But his life should not be extinguished, and he met Yan Leshi's family and rescued Lao Zheng who fell on the side of the road. Grateful for his kindness, he changed his name to Yan Hong and joined Yan Mansion as a slave.

Yan Leshi is not from Jiangzhou, but migrated here from other places, rescued Yan Hong on the way, and brought him all the way to Qingyuan Town.

It's just that during the migration, Miss Yan was already several months pregnant, and she was served by her maid and maid, but she had never seen her uncle show up.

Yan Leshi said that his uncle was an official thousands of miles away, and he was busy with official business, so he had no time to take care of it, so he took the young lady home to give birth, and he would return to reunite in the future. It's just that no one knows who my uncle's surname is and where he is an official, and I have never seen him for many years, and there is not a single letter.

The neighbors of Qingyuan Town are also suspicious, but because of Yan Leshi's usual good deeds, no one has announced it. There are all speculations in my heart, I am afraid that this Aunt Yanfu, who has never shown up, is not coming in the right way, or that Miss Yan is unmarried and pregnant, so she migrated here.

It was because of today's fat aunt's distraction that she almost spit out her guesses, but was stopped by the neighbors with sharp eyes, woke up in time, and kept silent.

Fang Baiyi frowned secretly, as a son of man, he didn't know who his biological father was, there were some jokes.

With a slight groan, he asked where his grandfather had moved to Qingyuan Town. Yan Hong's expression was stunned, his eyes were full of confusion, but now that he thinks about it, he has never heard Yan Leshi mention it.

Fang Baiyi was stunned!
