Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 26
Seeing Jiang Xiaoyu's smirk, Zhang Chen could only shake his head helplessly, thinking in his heart, "As expected of a little devil who grew up in the Valley of the Wicked".

When Zhang Chen saw the servants bring a jar of wine to the main table, he drank it staggeringly. As expected, after a while, the guests all changed their eyes and looked uncomfortable while clutching their stomachs.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Jiang Xiaoyu hurriedly said: "This is wrong, I just put some laxatives in it, it can't be like this?".After hearing what Jiao Xiaoyu said, everyone hurried to the main table. Zhang Jing observed everyone's expressions and found out that everyone was poisoned.

Zhang Jing anxiously said to Zhang Chen, "Hurry up and find Jiumei, Jiumei is good at making alchemy, and he may have a detoxification elixir."

Zhang Chen nodded, left the restaurant and ran towards Murong Jiu's courtyard.After a while, they arrived at Murong Jiu's courtyard and shouted, "Nine Girls, Nine Girls, Patriarch Murong and his wife were accidentally poisoned when they were meeting guests in the front hall. Zhang Jing said that you may have some antidote pills there, so you should hurry up and take a look." .

When Murong Jiu heard the news that his parents had been poisoned, he quickly responded, prepared some pills and followed Zhang Chen back to the hall.

Murong Jiu came to the main hall to check the pulse of everyone, took out some detoxification pills to alleviate the toxicity, thought for a moment and wrote a prescription for the servants to catch and boil the medicine.

A quarter of an hour later, the decoction was brought up for everyone to take. After a while, everyone's complexions slowly turned rosy. Seeing everyone's ruddy complexion, Zhang Jing said to everyone, "Everyone, go back to the room and rest first!".

Everyone in the field nodded, and followed the servants to the guest room to rest.The head of the Murong family and his wife are also a little tired and went back to the room to rest!
As the guests left one after another, Jiang Xiaoyu was the only one left in the hall and said, "It's a coincidence that this day was assassinated and poisoned. It seems to me that the elder brother is here for the Murong family."

Zhang Chen nodded in agreement, thought for a while and said, "It doesn't look peaceful tonight! Let's be more vigilant when we rest. Zhang Jing, please go and tell Patriarch Murong to make them prepare just in case."

After discussing for a while, everyone left!

As night fell, the lights of Murong Villa gradually dimmed. A masked man in night clothes quietly sneaked into Murong Villa, but he was exposed as soon as he landed. Everyone hid in the dark to observe this masked man, only to see the masked man Turn in and out in the villa.

Jiang Xiaoyu said curiously: "This masked man doesn't look like an assassin, but seems to be looking for something. Little fairy, you know what treasures there are in Murong Villa."

Zhang Jing shook her head, this is not my own home after all, it is impossible to know too clearly, you first stare at me and find Murong Jiu to come over.

After Zhang Jing led Murong Jiu and the others to follow for a distance, he found that the masked man had touched a remote courtyard and turned inside.Murong Jiu looked at the courtyard and said in surprise, "This Yueluo is where I usually make alchemy and there is nothing else. What does this thief want to do?".

They glanced at each other and decided to follow, and then entered the room in the courtyard. As soon as they entered the room, everyone felt that the indoor temperature was low. The arrangement of the room was like that of a pharmacy.

Murong Jiu explained in a low voice, "This room is used to store medicinal materials and refine elixirs at ordinary times."

Looking at the precious elixir on the medicine shelf, everyone speculated whether the thief wanted to take advantage of the fire and steal these precious elixir and the prepared elixir.

Zhang Chen watched the crowd discussing aside and could only say helplessly, "Everyone, don't make wild guesses. He's here anyway. Let's catch him and know what he wants to do?".

Everyone nodded and hid in the dark of the key one after another, ready to catch the thief when the masked man came out.After a while, the thief came out from the ear room with a bag on his back, and Zhang Chen used the technique of punching acupuncture points from the air to point the thief.

They tied up the thief and untied the acupoints to interrogate the thief's purpose for sneaking into Murong Villa late at night. The thief explained that he heard that everyone in Murong Villa was poisoned at night, and felt that the guards must be lax and wanted to make a small fortune.

Jiang Xiaoyu saw the thief talking intermittently and decided that he was lying, so he resorted to the means of punishing people in the Valley of the Evil and used it on the thief.

He just told the truth and picked up a treasure map in the past two days. After examining the terrain carefully, he found that it was the Murong family. Gradually sneaked into Murong's house to look for it.

Zhang Jing found the treasure map on the thief's body and showed it to the public. Looking at the map, Zhang Jing made a sound in surprise. This terrain is really the location of Murong's family.

Then he asked Murong Jiu who was on the side, "Jiumei! Where is this map?".

Murong Jiu took the map, looked at it carefully, and said affirmatively: "This is the ancestral tomb of my Murong family's back mountain. How could there be treasures? And this treasure map has been passed down."

While everyone was discussing, the handyman at the door ran to the inner house and said, "Hua Wuque, the successor of Yihua Palace, and Miss Tie came to visit."

Jiang Xiaoyu looked a little unwilling when he heard that Tie Xinlan and Hua Wuque were together, Zhang Chen saw that there was no words, and just patted him on the shoulder.

After everyone heard the report, they temporarily suppressed the thief, and then went to the lobby to discuss the matter with Patriarch Murong.

When they walked to the hall, the head of the Murong family was greeting Hua Wuque. After all, Yihua Palace belonged to the top forces in the world, and their Murong family was not as good.

Seeing everyone entering the hall, Patriarch Murong enthusiastically introduced Hua Wuque one by one, and after clasping fists and saluting each other, everyone sat down one after another.

From the moment he entered the lobby Jiang Xiaoyu stared at Tie Xinlan beside Hua Wuque, but Tie Xinlan avoided looking at Jiang Xiaoyu.

Jiang Xiaoyu laughed at himself and stopped looking at Tie Xinlan. Zhang Jing and Murong Jiu, who were on the side, also told Patriarch Murong about the thief sneaking into the house to find the treasure just now.

Zhang Chen helped analyze and said, "The thief got it by accident two days ago. I'm not sure how many copies of this treasure map will be distributed. I hope Patriarch Murong will make preparations early."

Patriarch Murong's dignified expression is no small matter. No one would underestimate the attraction of a treasure to people in Jiang Hu.Then he said to Hua Wuque, "Master Wuque should have entertained you for a while, but now the villa has something to do with it."

Hua Wuque clasped his fists and said, "This junior is here to celebrate his birthday. You must not stand by and watch such a thing happen. If you need anything, please ask Senior Murong."

Jiang Xiaoyu interjected and said, "This time so many people from the rivers and lakes come to Murong Villa to celebrate their birthday, I'm afraid they are not pure in their hearts!".
