Chapter 695: Butler, Answer My Words
dn't commoners be allowed to stand on the street Is it only permissible in front of the palace You expect a first-rank general’s residence to have the same rules as the imperial palace”With one sente...Are all the people coming from the capital this dirty They don't wash their faces or brush their teeth before going out This is too disgusting, right And they still think these people are good-looking, especially that man in white who is even more handsome. He came early in the morning just to take another look at them. 。"Who would have thought it would be this kind of lifestyle, they were so disappointed. How could the old lady have such disgusting relatives" 。The obnoxious relative was fixated on getting to the front yard and didn't care about what anyone else was thinking. 。 She was finally back in Shi Lifeng's hands after being occupied by Zhao Lian all night. Shi Lifeng held her tightly, refusing to let go of anything. He lowered his head slightly and said softly, "I see you don't look well. Didn't you sleep well last night" Ye Wenyan sighed, "How could I possibly sleep soundly in this situation and place" She tapped her head, "Headache" 。He didn't say a word, threw a spell, and Ye Wenyan instantly woke up. 。"Eh" she was slightly surprised, "You can still use this kind of spell"Shi Liyuan also let out an "Eh", "From what you mean, you can't use it anymore"She nodded, "Indeed, I can't use it anymore" 。Last night I even tried astral projection, but instead of projecting out, I just projected myself out of the covers. It was a struggle. 。Now my magic skills are only left with being able to give myself and others a cleaning, warm tea water also works. 。But why are you stronger than me” Shi Lifen puffed out his chest, “A-Yan, how can this deity not be a bit stronger than you” 。“Am I not as strong as you” She was reluctant to admit it, but she had to. After all, the facts were right in front of her. 。"Alright, you're stronger than me, that's good. It's also good that you can use more spells, at least that way when we run into trouble, we won't have to rely solely on brute force." 。Last night I was still discussing with Feng Zhaolian whether you would have martial arts skills. I thought you probably wouldn't, since you've been cultivating your spirit from the beginning. That means if you encounter danger, I'd have to protect you, just like our first meeting. 。"Shi Li Yuan chuckled, "A-Yan, you actually think this deity doesn't know martial arts" "You do" she was also surprised, "You actually know martial arts I didn't even know..." 。"
Some " 。"Shi Li Yuan smiled, reaching out to take her shoulder. 'I learned a little bit of everything when I was young. Later, the spiritual energy of the earth disappeared, so I learned some more just in case. After all this time, it's not bad.'" 。He may not be as good as your second brother, but he's still much better than those children from the Quan family. 。"
Feng Zhaolian sighed on the side, "Aya, no wonder you don't look down on me, it turns out that men in your family can do anything..." 。“
They had walked all the way to the front courtyard and from afar, they heard the steward scolding someone——"You are sent out to count the corpses, what are you afraid of Every morning someone has to go out to count the corpses, then report to the government to collect them, how can others do it but you can't"
The one being scolded was a servant, who at this moment also had a face full of grievances: “It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s that no one can do it today! The other day they all gritted their teeth and did it, but one by one, who could bear it like this What if the demon hasn't left yet What if I get killed as soon as I go out Today is different from yesterday, yesterday is different from the day before..." 。"The devil won't take anything away, he only multiplies it tenfold. So yesterday people dared to go out, but today no one dares!" "He must have a point." 。"Feng Zhaolian's voice was laced with suspicion, 'The Jiang family must have something to hide. Why else wouldn't they dispose of the body elsewhere' "
Ye Wenyan also knew there was something off about the Jiang family, but the key was that even the Jiang family members themselves didn't know what was wrong.
The steward was furious. He told the fellow, "If you don't go today, then leave the Jiang family and fend for yourself out there!"The fellow also had a temper. At that moment, he said, "Leave! Leave! It's better to fend for myself than stay in the Jiang family!" 。The fact that a body was thrown outside the Chiang family's gate clearly indicates that the act was directed at the Chiang family, so staying with them would be dangerous. 。"Then let's go, leave the Jiang family." 。But I remind you, you are a dead slave. You can leave, but your bond cannot be taken away. 。A dead slave without a contract can't leave Xiushan County. You'll be stuck there, and then your life and death will be out of your hands. You might not even have an inn to take you in. 。"
Upon hearing this, the man's spirit wilted. That's how it is with a slave—your master will never give you the chance to betray them. You want to run, but you can't even escape this city. " 。"Enough," he sighed, "I'll go, but can I wait until the sun comes out"
"Wait for the sun What for" The steward was angry. "It's been raining so much, you haven't seen the sun in ages, the sun isn't coming out."
"But the sun doesn't come out and the air is heavy with gloom. I'm afraid " 。He seemed to be truly terrified, trembling and reluctant to go out. 。 Night Wen saw this and walked forward a few steps, opening his mouth to say: "I'll go for him!""You" The steward was taken aback. When he turned to look at her, he felt that the girl looked familiar. He quickly remembered meeting Mrs. Tang when she went to see Jiang Xiu last night. Wasn't this one of the relatives who followed Mrs. Tang 。"Stop fooling around and go back to the manor." 。"The butler said to Ye Wenyan, 'You are the old lady's relatives, this kind of thing shouldn't be done by you, go back quickly!'
Ye Wenyan smiled, 'It's mainly because your people are unwilling to do it, so I reluctantly took over.'" 。Alright, open the door and see what's going on outside. 。
The butler was panicking in his heart, and he didn't know why, but as soon as he saw this girl, he felt scared>>> 。But this was a girl he had never seen before, fifteen or sixteen years old. What was there to be afraid of So he thought perhaps what he feared were the corpses outside, that he might be struck by this girl. Today even more so than yesterday... 。He had no time to think about anything else. He went forward and opened the door himself, then immediately stepped back for fear of danger outside the door. 。Ye Wen and the other two weren't particularly afraid, they walked out of the mansion just as usual, and at a glance, they saw the two corpses lying on the ground. 。The body was as described yesterday, the torso and head separated. Shi Lifeng examined the wound: "It wasn't inflicted by a blade or any such weapon, it looks like it was severed with an extremely thin rope." 。“How fine could it be…Hmm, like a spider’s silk perhaps!”
Fei Zhaolian was stunned, “Killing with spider silk Is there someone that skilled down there How about your second brother” she asked. 。Ye Wenyan shook his head, "I don't know, I've never asked." 。But such masters are not non-existent, at least I can. 。"Shi Liyuan followed with, "This deity will also do." 。Feng Zhaolian didn't want to speak anymore, she began looking around, after a while she saw Yun Xiao walking over from afar. 。She ran a few steps forward and proactively asked, "Where are you coming back from"Yun Xiao looked a little dazed, thought for a while before saying, "Just not far from Jiang's Mansion..." 。I spent all night searching, but couldn't find any clues. I decided to go back to the gate of Chiang's mansion and wait for that person to show up. 。Before I reached the front gate of the mansion, I suddenly felt dizzy. 。I think I just got a little dizzy, because before I got dizzy I was standing up, and when I woke up I was still standing. 。If someone is unconscious for a long time, it's impossible for them to maintain a standing posture. 。But in fact, I may have been drunk for a long time, at least half an hour. 。Because it was black before I fainted, and when I woke up, it was already this bright. 。" Feng Zhaolian frowned, and after a long while she asked him again, “Are you hurt” Yun Xiao shook his head, “Don’t worry, I’m not.” 。"That's great! You don't have to go out tonight, just stay at home." 。She pulled Yun Xiao over, and the two of them returned to Ye Wenyan's side. 。At this moment, Ye Wen was questioning the servants of the Chiang family. She asked them, "Do you know these two people" The servant who had been reluctant to come out earlier now seemed bolder. He spoke more clearly and felt more confident with so many people around. 。So he hurried forward to take a look, and after a while, he pointed to one of the bodies and said, "This man is the master of the teahouse books. He has been in the teahouse books since he was very young and has spent most of his life there." 。As for the other...
He took another look, even reaching out to tousle the skull's hair, and then exclaimed, "Ah! Isn't this Old Blind Tom from the dilapidated temple It's the head of our Xiushan County's beggars!" 。“He looked around again and muttered, “How come there are only two bodies today Shouldn’t it be one to many”Ye Wenyan replied, "Maybe he's run out of people to kill!"Feng Zhaolian followed up, "Then why did he kill these people Are the two bodies related in any way"Everyone present shook their heads. There couldn't be a relationship between them. One was a teahouse worker and the other was the beggar leader from a ruined temple. What could they possibly have to do with each other He said, "We didn't see any relationship between the bodies thrown before either. They must have known each other, after all, they were all from the same county. Xiu Shan County is not that big, you bump into people all the time." 。But what relation does it have That's really nothing at all! This young lady, you are an outsider, a pure spectator. You watch and observe, see what’s truly going on here. 。"Nightwen shook his head, "I don't know the reason, but throwing the body to the Jiang family's doorstep must have a purpose. 。"She spoke, suddenly looking at the butler, a smirk playing on her lips, "You, aren't you"
The butler was taken aback, “What do you mean Why me How would I know That’s ridiculous!”
Ye Wenyan let out a cold snort, "Whether it's ridiculous, you have the answer in your heart." 。If someone committed a harmful act, and the victim was of high rank and power, would you go to all lengths for revenge If that harmful act caused the person's family to be ruined, would you want the entire Xiushan County to bury them Butler, answer my question! The butler's mind buzzed like a bomb had gone off. He seemed to have thought of something...t even look down on the Immortal Palace.' ""Alas, I don't know what kind of world this is. The whole land worships the Yan Hua Palace. I thought that using the banner of Yan Hua Palace would allow my...
