66. Cold Smoke and Green Fog (2)

The two of them took their swords, jumped out of the upper floor, and jumped into the courtyard next door. Under the light, I saw two people lying among the flowers. Qin Chuan recognized that they were the two disciples of the Hundred Opera Gang on duty, but they had all been stunned.

At that moment, he made a gesture to Yi Wanyu, fluttered up, raised his sword to protect himself, and entered through the window on the second floor.

But I saw that in Yi Wanyu's boudoir, the brocade tent was hanging empty, and the embroidery was opened, but where was Sang Qinghong's figure?

Yi Wanyu rushed up from the staircase with a sword, shook her head at Qin Chuan and said, "The two maids who served me downstairs were also pointed with heavy hands and fell unconscious!"

The two of them couldn't see Sang Qinghong, they were both shocked and anxious.

Yi Wanyu touched it on the bed and said, "The bed is still warm, Sister Sang must have been caught in her sleep!"

Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and saw that Yi Wanyu had reached out to pick up the candlestick, and looked at it, there was indeed a plain note pressed under the candlestick, and when he moved closer to the candle flame to look, he saw two lines of words written on it: "Qin Gang Leader Yajian: Limited to one o'clock at noon tomorrow, bring the fish intestine sword to the 'red sleeve move' to change this woman." If it expires, the 'No. 1 Beauty in Martial Arts' will become the 'No. 1 Prostitute in Martial Arts'!"

Yi Wanyu changed color when she landed, and said in a trembling voice: "The other party is coming for me, but he treats Sister Sang as me!"

Qin Chuan gasped and asked, "What is the 'Red Sleeve Move'?"

Yi Wanyu glanced at him and said, "That's the largest brothel in Luoyang City. Brother Chuan, I worked there as an 'Oiran' three years ago!"

Qin Chuan smiled slightly, patted her on the shoulder, indicating that he didn't have to mind, and muttered: "It's nothing, it's a big deal, Ming'er, let's exchange the fish intestine sword for the Sang Rudder Master!"

Yi Wanyu hurriedly said: "The day after tomorrow is when you take over the celebration, and there is no token of the helper of the fish intestine sword." How is it good? Won't it make the heroes of the world laugh when the time comes?"

Qin Chuan said slowly: "Human life is at stake. No matter what, we can't let the Mulberry Helm Lord do any damage!"

Yi Wan Yuqiang calmed down on her own, seeing Qin Chuan's brows furrowed deeply, and she was silent in front of the candle flame, she sighed lightly and said, "Brother Chuan, the enemy took a fancy to the fact that you would never sit idly by and watch me be damaged, so he came up with this trick." ”

Qin Chuan Shicai only heard the sound of the wind in the clothes that was extremely fast and light, and it was obvious that the person who broke into Yi Wanyu's boudoir at night was a master of light skills. It's just that such a master must be a person of great status. With his skills, he is to take advantage of the time when he is asleep to directly snatch the fish intestine sword, it is not impossible, why must he bully a weak female streamer?

Yi Wanyu looked at Qin Chuan intently, and sighed: "Brother Chuan, if it was left in the past, if such a big event happened, you would definitely panic, and you should have made a voice to alarm everyone." I didn't expect you to be able to deal with things without being surprised. I'm so calm, but I'm in a mess right now!"

Qin Chuan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "To be honest with Sister Yu, I just seem to be calm." If so, it's really you who gets caught. I, I really don't know what to do!"

Yi Wanyu was stunned, and immediately understood the meaning of his words, as the so-called "care is chaos". The Messer. It's just affection, and his weight in Qin Chuan's heart is naturally very different from Sang Qinghong. Sang Qinghong is a brother and sister in Qinchuan. Righteousness comes first, but in his heart he is a lover who promises life and death, and his love is related. She felt sweet in her heart, smiled, and then thought of Sang Qinghong's safety, and couldn't help frowning.

Qin Chuan also wanted to call out to everyone in the gang at the beginning, but then he thought about it, as the leader of the gang, he couldn't solve this matter, even if everyone came here, it would be useless.

He thought about it for a while, quickly went downstairs and slapped the acupoints of the two Yahuan open, and then went to the courtyard to wake up the two Baixi Gang disciples and bring them back upstairs.

When the four of them saw that the helper came to ask in person, they were very frightened, and they knelt on the ground together, kowtowing more than once.

Qin Chuan waved his hand and said gently: "The enemy has knocked you unconscious, it's nothing, just get up!" Only then did the four of them come back to their senses and stand up tremblingly.

The two maids were attacked in their sleep, unaware. The two Qinglong Hall disciples were not weak, and when the two of them were patrolling the garden with knives, they suddenly heard the sound of the wind above their heads, and the figure in front of them was a flower, and before they could open their mouths to move, they were hit on the back of the head at the same time, and they fainted.

Qin Chuan said to the four: "You guys go down first." Don't talk nonsense about this matter with others, lest it spread and everyone panic, I have my own ideas!"

Seeing that the helper looked calm and confident, the four of them had a slight determination in their hearts, but they only responded and quit.

Qin Chuan took Yi Wanyu's hand and said, "You will sleep in my room tonight, and you will make plans tomorrow morning." Elder Qu is very old, and he has been tired and poor recently, so I don't want to disturb his old man anymore!"

Yi Wanyu nodded, her eyebrows locked slightly, and suddenly broke free of his hand, holding the candlestick to inspect the room everywhere, and sniffing here and there from time to time. Qin Chuan saw her solemn expression, and his heart moved, so he lit a candle and bent down to observe carefully on the ground in the room.

Yi Wanyu suddenly said: "It's 'cold smoke and green fog', the unique poisonous gas of the Shangguan family in Jiangnan!"

Qin Chuan's heart froze, as soon as he entered this room, he felt that something was wrong, with Sang Qinghong's martial arts, it was impossible for someone to break through the window and not react. If you think about it carefully, the person who came must have put drugs such as "ecstasy incense" and "rooster crowing five drums to break the soul".

Listening to Yi Wanyu's words at this moment, I immediately remembered that there was a red light and silver candle in this woman's boudoir, which was bright and shining, and there was nothing unusual, and I just felt that something was wrong, and when I looked closely, I saw a light green mist floating in the air, if there was nothing, it was looming.

Yi Wanyu opened the doors and windows, let the cold wind blow away the residual fog, and then took Qin Chuan's hand, left the bedroom, and slowly went downstairs. She put her mouth to his ear and whispered: "The other party is afraid of your martial arts skills, and he doesn't dare to go outside your room, but he secretly lurks in my small building, waiting for the opportunity to cast this harmful 'Cui Han Smoke', first stunned Sister Sang, and then sent Cambodia to kidnap people!"

Qin Chuan asked, "What is 'Cui Han Yan'?"

Yi Wanyu said: "'Cui Han Yan', also known as 'Cold Smoke and Cui Mist', is a kind of green poisonous gas refined by collecting various poisonous gases from Jiangnan Yuxiao Villa, with a faint fragrance of bamboo. If you take a few more breaths, your body will convulse and die, and after death, your body will condense into a layer of frost. People who practice martial arts and practice qi smell a lot. will also lose all internal strength, and if you smell more, you will not escape death. ”

Qin Chuan couldn't help but gasp and said, "No wonder I faintly feel stuffy in my chest!" Yi Wanyu smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, this poisonous gas is colored and smelly, otherwise it would be difficult to prevent!"

The two returned to the bedroom of Qinchuan Xiaolou hand in hand, sitting opposite each other, silent, and both worried. After a while, Yi Wanyu suddenly said: "Could it be that Mu Changfeng let Shangguan Xin go?" Hmph, that Shangguan Xin is in vain as the 'first son of Jiangnan'." has always been lonely and self-appreciative, but he turned out to be so spineless, and he even lowered Mu Changfeng!"

Qin Chuan shook his head and said: "The person who is above the official son will never return to the predecessor of Mu! ”

Yi Wanyu was stunned and understood the meaning of his words. Shangguan Xin refused to give in for a day, and Mu Changfeng would not let him go for a day. Unless someone from the Shangguan family in Jiangnan rescued him, or, was the intruder just now someone else?

Yi Wanyu frowned slightly. With his hands propped up, he muttered: "This is strange, when I was in Hangzhou for a long time, I heard that only this 'first son in the south of the Yangtze River' walked on the rivers and lakes in Yuxiao Villa. His father, Shangguan Yu, has been in retreat for many years and has long since stopped asking about the world. Besides, I haven't heard of any great outstanding people in the Shangguan family!"

The two discussed for a long time, but it was difficult to reach a result. Qin Chuan said: "Tomorrow will be known, and you don't have to worry." It's not too early. Let's rest!" Seeing that Yi Wanyu still refused to sleep, he immediately stretched out his arms and lifted her body horizontally. Put it back on the bed.

Early the next morning, the heroes of the Baiju Gang gathered in the hall and listened to Qin Chuan talk about the robbery of Sang Qinghong at night, and they were all moved.

Elder Qu frowned slightly, and muttered: "Strange, is it really a person from the Shangguan family in the south of the Yangtze River? Yuxiao Villa has always been with the well water of the Central Plains faction and does not interfere with the river water, so why would Shangguan Xin break into the helm of the gang at night and rob people to change swords?"

Elder Wu said: "That night, Guan Xin also came to the helm to look for the jade girl, and also subdued the 'chopsticks brothers' who came to make trouble. I didn't expect that after many days, he would come to cause trouble again!" Elder Wang said: "Everyone has seen the skills of the official letter when he subdued the chopsticks brothers that night, and it is indeed remarkable. Looking at this gang, only the gang leader and Elder Qu are his opponents!"

Liu Zhanpeng interjected: "Gang leader, the master this time is obviously not the person who came to injure fifteen brothers from this gang last time, but it may not be that Shangguan Xin! The subordinates thought that maybe it was the other masters of the Shangguan family!" Qin Chuan nodded, quite agreeable.

After Elder Deng took the plain note from Elder Qu's hand, he silently read it several times, put the plain note together in the sunlight and looked at it carefully, then put his nose closer, sniffed it several times, and suddenly said, "Helper, can you please ask the deputy helper of the beggar Gangqiu to come here?"

When Qin Chuan heard this, his heart moved, and he immediately nodded to Zhao Jin, and Zhao Jin hurried out.

Elder Deng also instructed Huang Bao, who was guarding outside the door, to quickly find Yuan Fu, the deputy hall master of the "Vermilion Bird Hall".

Qin Chuan already knew it in his heart at this time, and said, "Brother Deng, could it be that there is something wrong with this letter?" Elder Deng cocked his thumb and praised: "The gang leader is really quick-minded! Last night, the gang leader just looked at this note under the candlelight, and he didn't notice anything different, but his subordinates were under the sun, and the effect was different!"

Elder Wang listened as if he was at a loss, so he took the note again, sniffed it the same way, shone it in the sun, shook his head, and said, "I don't understand! Brother Deng, what kind of dumb riddle are you and the gang leader playing, don't you explain it clearly?"

Elder Deng smiled faintly and said: "This paper is rice paper, ink is Hui ink, although my brother knows limited about paper and ink, but there is a fragrance in the taste of this ink, and it is a high-grade pine ink, so my brother asked the helper to find the deputy gang leader of the beggar gang, who is known for his sense of smell, to help identify it." As for looking for Brother Yuanfu, he is a connoisseur of notes, and may be able to see the origin of this kind of paper and see if it is useful. ”

After a short time, Qiu Dalun and Yuanfu arrived. After Yuanfu's evaluation, the result was that the letterhead paper was the best rice paper, and the color was very new, and only the rich and noble families could afford it. When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be a little depressed, like Luoyang and other big cities, there are thousands of wealthy families in the city, and for a while, where do they go to track down?

But after seeing Qiu Dalun sniffing the letterhead, he shook his head and said: "Fragrant muscles and bones, scum does not leave inkstones, licking pens do not glue, black and smooth lacquer, wonderful, the end is 'light, smelling sweet, grinding clear', it is really the best in the micro-ink!"

Elder Qu smiled and said, "Brother Qiu, everyone is a rough person. Don't drop the text with us, we won't understand it. What do you mean by that?"

Qiu Dalun scratched his scalp and said with a smile: "The younger generation is out of shape, please don't blame the seniors." What the younger generation said is that the beauty of the micro-ink used in this letterhead is only 'shiny as lacquer', which is very obvious. Let's put it this way, only the 'Huasongtang' in Xixian County, Huizhou Prefecture, has this kind of ink, but I don't know if there is a shop in Luoyang City that sells this ink!" He looked up and saw that the Hundred Opera Gang Qunhao still had a puzzled look on his face, so he bowed his hand to Qin Chuan and said, "Gang master, why don't your subordinates go to Luoyang City's Chinese Four Treasures Store to inquire and see if there is a clue?"

Han Suo didn't wait for Qin Chuan to answer, and immediately pulled Qiu Dalun and Yuanfu aside and explained the origin of the note.

Qin Chuan pondered: "It's hard to say whether the origin of this letterhead is useless. The top priority is the 'red sleeve move'. He glanced at Qunhao and said, "At noon today, I will go to the 'Red Sleeve Move' to meet that master, and I will know when the time comes!"

Elder Qu frowned and said, "Gang leader, don't fall for the tricks of the Shangguan clan, no matter what, the fish intestine sword of this gang must not be handed over to outsiders!" Elder Wang also said: "Not bad." The subordinates will bring people forward, and now we will lift the 'red sleeve move' to the sky, dig three feet into the ground, and save the Sang girl!" Elder Deng shook his head and said: "Brother Wang is thinking too simply, the other party's intention is to help the master's fish intestine sword, so he will naturally expect our move, most of the Sang helm master is not in the 'red sleeve move' at all!"
