Chapter 25: The Hidden Sword Villa
Chapter 25: The Hidden Sword Villa (I)
Yangzhou, Jiangdu.
The wet bluestone slabs, the slightly cold weather and the dull sunlight all highlight the solemnity and gloom of twilight.
Yangzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, the land of fish and rice. Facing the surging Yangtze River in the south, the environment is elegant and beautiful, and the humanities are gathered, which is a good place for countless literati and artists to visit.
Yangzhou City has convenient transportation, salt merchants, silk, rice wine, cinnamon and ...... Most of the places in this place are very developed.
Dressed in black, with a half-cut mask covering his face, and a large package on his back, the jingling sound made many passers-by look sideways. With a light sigh, Lin Xuan slowly stepped into the ancient city of Yangzhou with the flow of people.
When he missed a rather expensive manor, Lin Xuan glanced at a transfer notice posted outside the door, and immediately stopped. He carefully looked at the scenery outside the manor, and then asked the little guy who was standing at the door and sitting lazily on the steps, "Is this piece of your house going to be transferred?"
The little guy looked up and saw that he was covered in dust, wearing a half-section mask on his face, obviously a foreigner, just when he asked casually, he replied casually: "Yes, my lord wants to live happily and carefree in his old age, so he decided to sell this manor and go back to his hometown to retire." ”
Lin Xuan nodded: "Go and tell your master, I bought this manor!"
The little guy was stunned for a while, how could an unknown outsider afford such a valuable house?
But seeing that Lin Xuan had already stepped into the manor, it didn't look like he was fooling himself, so he immediately stepped out of the way and rushed into the inside before Lin Xuan.
Inside the manor, hundreds of plum blossoms are in full bloom. The color of these plum blossoms is not the pink color that is usually seen in previous lives, but purple-gold. Perhaps because of the season, the slightly dim sunlight sprinkled on these purple-gold plum blossoms was particularly eye-catching, even the cold and dull Lin Xuan had to admit that the plum blossoms here were unusually beautiful.
The little guy turned around and saw Lin Xuan staring at these plum blossoms with an obsessive expression, and couldn't help but pout.
Can a hillbilly who has never even seen a purple gold plum blossom really buy this house?
Turned.
Lin Xuan saw that the little guy beside him was slightly distracted, as if he knew why the other party was in a daze, and had to interrupt the other party's thoughts.
"Let's go, don't worry, I'm here to buy this estate. ”
Soon the little guy led Lin Xuan to see his master, only to see that he was old, with a big belly, and his sideburns were gray, and he was about the age of sixties.
This is a rich businessman!
Lin Xuan caught a glimpse of the emerald green jade wrench on his hand and the string of pearls around his neck, and secretly guessed the identity of the other party in his heart.
Equally.
Under the little girl's eyebrows, the other party knew Lin Xuan's intention, and looked at Lin Xuan with a smile: "I am the master here, you can call me Zhou Yuanwai." You want to buy this place, but do you know how expensive my estate is?
Although it is not very large, it has been planted with purple gold plum blossoms for many millennia. These plum blossoms are really left behind by King Zhou Li in the past when he smiled for the princess of Bo.
So every plum blossom here is worth a hundred taels of gold!!"
Although Zhou Yuanwai was speaking to Lin Xuan, his eyes carefully scanned Lin Xuan up and down.
Dressed in black and with that half of the mask, it is obvious that the identity of this person who keeps saying that he wants to buy his own garden is not simple.
Other than that.
The mask on his face seemed to have been made of dark iron, and now only half of it was left, so how did he do it?
There is no doubt that as a wealthy businessman, his eyesight is indeed outstanding.
That mask was left by the madman who was killed by Lin Xuan before, and was used to hide his identity. As for why only half of it is left, it can't be swaggering outside with a dead man's mask, conveying the news that I am the murderer!
Meanwhile. Lin Xuan walked to the tea table, held up a cup of tea, and tasted it naturally.
"In Xia Yan Thirteen, I bought this manor of yours. ”
As he spoke, he took out a bowl-sized night pearl that exuded a faint light from the burden behind him without raising his head.
"Is this enough for you?"
Yingying's brilliance shone brightly, a large number of such a large pearl in front of him, Zhou Yuanwai, who had been doing business all year round, became very shocked, this kind of night pearl was priceless, he had never seen it, and his breathing became slightly short.
"Enough, enough! This night pearl is more than enough for my garden!"
"Hurry up!" Lin Xuan gently sipped the tea in his hand.
This tea,
It's bitter!
Earlier, when he woke up, he found himself lying on the rocks above the waterhole, and Ao Wei's figure had disappeared early. When he dived underwater, he found that the stone cave that was originally underwater had disappeared!
Doubts have been haunting him, but he is helpless. Now, in order to better understand what kind of world this is, this is the best option.
Zhou Yuanwai's cloudy eyes glanced at Lin Xuan's baggage, and faintly saw that there seemed to be more night pearls and countless treasures in it, and a trace of light flashed in it, and various thoughts came to his heart.
His first instinct for these things was, stolen money!!
A descendant of a large family stole the master's treasure and defected!!
Moreover, there is a high probability that this big family is royal!!
As a wealthy businessman, he has done a lot of things such as killing people and setting fires, robbing money and destroying his mouth, and this time there is a fat sheep sent to the door, and it is easy for him to get this wealth.
After all!
This is his turf!
In Yangzhou City, his power is enough to cover the sky with one hand!!
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Yuanwai's eyes narrowed: "I don't know what to call this guest, where does he come from?"
Lin Xuan shook his head, looked at Zhou Yuanwai unscrupulously and said, "Yan Thirteen! As for my origin......
You don't need to know!"
"Hmm!" Listening to Lin Xuan's hoarse voice, Zhou Yuanwai's face did not change in the slightest, and he was full of smiles, but his eyes were directly on Lin Xuan's face.
Half a day. He took the teacup with a smile and drank it up: "You embarrass me like this! If the county guard of this county knows that there is a character like you, then ......
Hehe, presumably for you, this is also a big trouble!"
Hearing this, Lin Xuan was not angry but happy, and his voice sounded a little cold: "Have you ever seen a golden leaf?"
Reaching out, a gold leaf appeared in the palm of his hand.
The golden light shone brightly, watching it The greed in Zhou Yuanwai's heart became more and more intense.
"This thing, like a rose, looks glamorous on the outside, but in fact it hides a murderous motive!!"
Sou!
As soon as the words fell, a faint golden light flashed!!
Boom! Boom!
Zhou Yuanwai turned around, his face changed greatly, some beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his voice trembled as if he had seen something incredible: "This ......"
In the house,
A golden leaf pierced through the stone wall and flew out, and a long crack sank into the ground from top to bottom.
outside
More than a dozen stout golden filaments fell in scattered places, and the surface of the trees was as smooth as paper, and it was obvious that it was caused by the gold leaves.
"Do you think that your body can withstand such an attack!" Lin Xuan's words were like a cold wind whistling outside, blowing violently into Zhou Yuanwai's heart.
