The pear blossoms fall to the stars

Chapter 96 Visiting the Zhou Mansion
"Hua Mengyin teaches." Li Hualuo said these words calmly.

"Huamengguo... Yinjiao, this force has never shown up. It seems that Luogezhu has aroused their interest." Han Jiuling said.

Jiang Ying was a little worried after hearing this: "Luo'er, I'm afraid you will be in danger after hearing Mr. Han say so, why don't I send some people over from Lihua Peak?"

Li Hualuo shook her head: "Let's not say that it takes time to transfer people, and on their territory, no matter how many people they transfer, it may not help."

"No, no..." Xing Chen suddenly thought hard on the side.

"What's wrong?" Li Hualuo thought he had another headache, so she asked anxiously.

Xingchen thought for a long time, and suddenly looked anxiously at Li Hualuo, and grabbed his hand: "Luo'er, I seem to really remember the plum blossom black dart, you should stay away from it, once you attract their attention, you I'm afraid there will be life-threatening."

Li Hualuo paused, while Han Jiuling and Liang Jingyan looked at each other deeply, and asked, "Master Xingchen, what else do you think of?"

Lihualuo trembled, it turned out that he knew that Xingchen had amnesia.

Xing Chen shook his head: "I don't think of anything else, but you must stay away from this force, it is simply too terrifying."

Li Hualuo stopped suddenly because she had realized that the stars must have a close relationship with these hidden religions, so that he didn't remember anything after he lost his memory, but he still had a deep impression of this hidden power. Emotions are quite exciting.Even before he lost his memory, he kept a respectful distance from hidden forces.

"That's right, its existence is indeed terrifying." Han Jiuling recited silently.

He shifted his gaze to Lihualuo again and said, "Master Luo Pavilion, how did you learn about Yinjiao?"

"During the first contact, I sent Mingyue to collect the secret letter that your Hanlu Pavilion was intercepted by other forces. It was information about hidden forces. The person who intercepted your secret letter committed suicide before Mingyue captured him, but I suspect that suicide It is very likely that the person you are investigating is a member of the hidden force you are investigating." Li Hualuo recalled the secret letter he received in Xilailou, Yucheng, and at that time felt that it must be something that could keep Hanlu Pavilion on the lookout little things.

Liang Jingyan looked at Han Jiuling's puzzled eyes and said, "Young master, I have mastered the secret report of Hanlu Pavilion all these years, but I have not understood the connotation of the hidden power. I just listened to the young master's explanation last time and understood it a little bit. And these years, Whenever there is a little bit of information about hidden forces, the other party will use all means to destroy it, so this matter of hidden teachings has been missed."

Li Hualuo went on to say: "My purpose this time is indeed the same as your son's. I came to Nanwu City to investigate this matter. However, for some reason, it attacked us when we were in Yangping Town, but it seems , the biggest target is still me.”

"No wonder..." Han Jiuling recalled the tranquility of Yangping Town.

"No wonder what?" Li Hualuo asked.

Liang Jingyan replied: "When we passed Yangping Town, there was no one alive there."

Jiang Yingdao: "When we got there, those townspeople were already dead. It was what Yinjiao did. They killed them all and manipulated them with Gu insects. Until we got there, they controlled all the townspeople. , so that they will not fall no matter how they are beaten, and they are full of brute force. It is simply inhumane! Fortunately, the stars formed an array, and Luo'er was blown to sleep, which calmed them down and buried them one by one."

"Young Master Xingchen will set up an formation?"

After Han Jiuling finished speaking, he asked again: "What is the technique of blowing sleep?"

"A little bit, it's useless." Xing Chen is not humble, if he is really an advanced formation mage, I am afraid that Li Hualuo may not be his opponent.

As for Li Hualuo's sleep blowing technique, she didn't explain too much, and said, "The sleep blowing technique is just a trick to cover up the eyes, and it's not as good as a star-level spell."

After hearing this, Han Jiuling didn't ask any more questions.

Li Hualuo only spoke: "Young Master Han, Hanlu Pavilion now controls one of these three hidden forces, and my faction controls one. I don't know what the other force is, but have you found anything?"

"Three kingdoms are at the same time, I suspect that the three forces are in the three kingdoms. The power that owns the plum blossom and the black darts, I am ashamed to say, they don't show up easily, so before the slightest details are found out, the Yinjiao has been confirmed in Huameng, And another force should also be between Shang Ning and our country Jiuyue."

Han Jiuling stopped before finishing speaking, and Liang Jingyan said immediately: "The three forces, one is bright and the other is dark, it has been confirmed that the Yinjiao and Plum Blossom Black Dart that appeared before are all controlled by the black forces, and the other One force, we suspect that it is behind the counterbalance of these two forces, so these two forces are doing some unknown things behind the scenes."

Sure enough, where there is darkness, there is still dawn.

"However, three years ago, this force was inexplicably hidden, there was no trace, and there was not even a little wind." Han Jiuling said.

"So, with the disappearance of this force, Mr. Han knew that the other two forces would start to stir up and make a difference, so he decided to investigate from its source. The earliest source was the Liangfu. Why did they want to destroy the family?" Liangfu?" Li Hualuo said.

Liang Jingyan said: "At that time, they robbed all the valuables in Liangfu, and then they set fire to Liangfu."

"For money? It doesn't make sense. How could such a powerful hidden force come forward for money?" Jiang Ying said something suspicious.

"The people of the Liang Mansion do business according to their duties, and it is impossible to provoke this force. Therefore, we suspect that they have some kind of conspiracy not for money, so we came here this time to find out the truth." Liang Jingyan talked about the side of righteousness, but in fact, his hand put a lot of strength on the sword. How could it be so simple? The most important thing is revenge. It's just that Han Jiuling's idea is more in this righteous investigation conspiracy, so He complied with all his might.

"Mr. Liang was in the mansion at that time?" Xing Chen asked.

Liang Jingyan blurted out "Yes".

"Then how did Mr. Liang survive?" Xing Chen asked again.

Liang Jingyan replied: "I was going to the toilet at the time, and the lantern fell on the ground and went out suddenly. When I came out, I lit the lantern with a fire pocket, but found that all the family members of the mansion were dead, so I ran to my father's house. room, they are all dead, and this dart is the only clue."

Liang Jingyan turned the plum-blossom dart in his hand: "Later they set fire to the mansion and burned it all down, so as not to leave any clues behind. It took me a lot of effort to escape from the flames."

Xingchen raised some doubts: "There must be many people in Mr. Liang's house, but why didn't there be any movement when he was killed..."

"This is also the most incredible point. My father was hospitable all his life. At that time, there were not many visitors in the house. There were few poets and many martial arts. My father was good at raising those martial arts. In fact, it was a group of nobles. Sometimes someone will cause trouble in my father's shop, and those doormen will come forward to solve it. When encountering ruthless characters, those doormen can handle it well. However, that night, everyone, including the martial arts doormen, did not struggle He's dead." Liang Jingyan said it strangely, like a supernatural event.

"Before this, Mr. Liang, did you find any strange things in the mansion?" Xing Chen asked.

"It's the same as usual." Liang Jing said.

"It's been a month, Mr. Liang, will you go back to the house and check?" Xing Chen asked.

"No. But from a distance, there is already a new mansion there." Liang Jingyan had a look of sadness in his eyes.

"A new mansion?" Li Hualuo was surprised. This Qianliang mansion was completely destroyed, and the murder case has not been found out. It stands to reason that Feng Shui theory was taboo in ancient times, but someone would like to build a new mansion there?Don't they notice where it doesn't take off?
Fortunately, they did not let Lihua down.

Liang Jing said: "We have already inquired. The owner of the new mansion is surnamed Zhou. I heard that he is a rich man who moved from other places. He didn't know about the massacre in the Liang Mansion. He asked Mr. Feng Shui to forget about such a mansion. So a new house was built.”

"The Liangfu was burned down, and a new house was erected, where did the clues come from?" Li Hualuo asked intentionally.

Han Jiuling replied: "I'm afraid this matter is not so simple. We want to go to the Zhou Mansion to investigate, and we want to visit rashly. If there is something hidden, we will scare the snake away."

"So, now we can't investigate secretly, and we can't visit openly?" Jiang Ying asked.

"Why can't you make an unannounced visit?" Li Hualuo asked again on purpose.

Han Jiuling signaled Liang Jingyan to talk about it.

Liang Jingyan said casually: "As soon as I returned to Nanwu, I went to the Zhou Mansion to investigate, and I felt a very oppressive atmosphere from a distance. I always felt that there were countless masters hidden in the depths, and at night, I performed lightness kung fu Sneaked into the Zhou Mansion, but found that the mansion was heavily guarded, and had to leave the mansion. Later, they disguised themselves to investigate some hidden information about the Zhou Mansion. Some people said that the Zhou Mansion was doing big business. It is a huge treasury, so there are so many hidden guards and government soldiers, in order to prevent people from stealing the treasury with ulterior motives."

"The treasury? How rich is this man surnamed Zhou? There is a treasury in the mansion, so I'm not afraid of causing a catastrophe?" Jiang Ying was half ironic. You must know that the Qianliang mansion was just because of the extermination of the family and the robbery of wealth. of.

Xingchen said: "Could it be that they robbed this Liangfu?"

Han Jiuling and Liang Jingyan didn't veto it, it seems that they also had doubts.

"Since the Zhou Mansion is so suspicious, and it has something to do with hidden forces, so we can't make unannounced visits, then we'll visit overtly." Li Hualuo's eyes lit up, she must have thought.

"Miss, do you want to pretend to be a businessman to visit?" Han Jiuling guessed Li Hualuo's mind with a single word.

"Yes."

It seems to be a very old-fashioned method, but everyone has no objection.

"In that case, let's compare the plan and make preparations." Li Hualuo began to talk about her plan.

A few days later, two extraordinarily luxurious carriages appeared at the gate of Zhou Mansion.

"Xiaoyan, go to the mansion and send a message to Mr. Zhou." Han Jiuling's voice came from one of the carriages.

"Yes, master." Liang Jingyan respectfully agreed in front of the carriage, his voice lowered a lot, he became humble, and he also made a simple disguise on his face, but no matter how he looked, he was far from himself.

After all, Liang Jingyan before was cold and silent, but now Liang Jingyan can only be described with a humble and ordinary face.

I saw Liang Jingyan heading towards the Zhou Mansion, but before he reached the gate of the Zhou Mansion, he was forcibly stopped by two guards of the mansion.

"Who, don't take another step forward." The guard said coldly, and Li Hualuo in the car raised the corners of his mouth slightly after hearing this.

"What is Pavilion Master Luo laughing at?" Han Jiuling who was sitting opposite him asked curiously.

Li Hualuo just shook her head, and said, "Young Master Han, you have to go in later to see what's different."

Outside the carriage, Liang Jingyan said kindly, "You two, please inform Mr. Zhou that a rich son came from Seoul and wants to discuss business with your master."

"My master doesn't see any guests." The guard still didn't accommodate at all, but became vigilant. It seems that there are quite a few people who come to make trouble like this on weekdays.

After Liang Jingyan heard this, he took out something from his sleeve, handed it to the guard, and said: "Brother, please show this to your master, this business will only make a steady profit. "

I didn't expect Liang Jingyan to be able to act like a villain, so it's hard for him.

The guard saw that the thing in Liang Jingyan's hand was very unique, so he glanced at the other guard, then looked at the luxurious carriage outside, hesitated for a moment, then took the thing and said: "Wait a minute, I'll make an announcement."

In the Zhou Mansion, the guards used lightness kung fu to shuttle through the mansion, and soon entered the depths of the inner mansion.Only then did the guard slow down, and walked in front of Zhou Qing, the master of the Zhou Mansion.

"Master, there is a young master who claims to be from Seoul at the door, and asked me to give you this thing, saying that he wants to do a business with the master, and he will make a profit without losing money." The guard handed over a gradient cup in his hand. In Zhou Qing's hands.

Zhou Qing saw that the cup was outstanding and unique at first glance, so he took the cup and began to admire it, frowning more and more as he looked at it.Lian asked the guard: "Did that man say what kind of wine glass it is made of?"

"Never said." The guard replied.

"This..." Zhou Qing seemed to be struggling, and then he stared at the cup for a second time, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Invite them in."

"Yes." The guard left the inner mansion, still using lightness kung fu to leave, and soon appeared at the gate of the mansion.

Liang Jingyan was still standing at his original position waiting for the news, when the guard came out and said, "Master Zhou invites you to join the discussion."

In the carriage, after hearing the guard's message, Han Jiuling looked at Li Hualuo with admiration: "Lord Luo Pavilion, people from Nanwu have also said that many people brought business to Boss Zhou this week, but They were all turned away.”

"That thing is unique, artistic, and valuable. He won't refuse it." After Li Hualuo finished speaking, Jiang Ying raised the curtain outside the carriage, signaling him to get out of the carriage.

Lihualuo put on her veil and Han Jiuling got out of the carriage, and Xingchen from the other carriage also got off.

The three masters walked in front, while Jiang Ying and Liang Jingyan, who were pretending to be maids and servants, followed carefully behind.
