Martial Arts: The First Genius Doctor in Jianghu

Chapter 19
The night was getting deeper, and it was still raining outside.Even the bright moon is covered in the dark cloudy night, and the outside can only be seen through the flickering of lightning and thunder.

Su Chen opened the window and didn't care about the rain that drifted into the room, just sat by the window and looked at the dark outside.

What a sleepless night.he thought.

But he also knew that he was far from the only one who couldn't sleep tonight.

In a trance, he kind of wanted to drink.Even if drinking alone is always the most boring thing, but now he is obviously just sitting, but he feels as if he is too busy to stop.

Boom!

There was a loud thunder, and Su Chen looked out through the light of the lightning.Under the big tree next to the post road, there seemed to be a person standing.

Su Chen stood up, but when he looked over, it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.Before he had time to think about it, there was a faint sound of leaf flutes in the majestic torrential rain.

Su Chen listened carefully, the sound of the flute seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

Without hesitation, he opened the window and chased Ye Disheng out like an arrow.

The rain was heavier at night than in the afternoon, the ticking of the rain, the sound of boots stepping on the water, so that he could hardly hear the sound of the leaf flute.

Su Chen had no choice but to stop and listen carefully and hoped that the piper would not go too far.

The sound of the flute still disappeared.

Listen carefully.

The sound of the leaf flute disappeared, but someone was singing.

It was a woman's voice.

It was beautiful and melodious, but there was an undisguised resentment in the singing alone.

The woman is singing:
"Lao Yan parted, heaven and earth mourned,

When the birds gather together, how can they bear to be separated.

The shrike is fierce, peeping at the swallow's nest,
Swallows are benevolent and righteous, and they would rather break than bend. "

Su Chen was terrified, this was exactly the song he saw from the scholar Zhao Yangxin in the afternoon.

Chasing in the direction of the singing, the singing woman seemed to know that someone was following, so she sang unhurriedly in front, if Su Chen was fast, she would be fast, if Su Chen was slow, she would be slow.

Su Chen was attracted by the woman's singing and gradually walked away.

A manor appeared before him.

It was a manor that had been abandoned for a long time. Its former splendor had long since disappeared, and only the ruins of walls remained. The garden that should have been carefully planted with rare and exotic grasses was overgrown with weeds.

The woman Tingting stood at the gate.

Su Chen asked her, "Where is this place?"

The woman replied, "Of course it's my home."

Su Chen said, "People don't live in this kind of place."

The woman said, "So I'm not human."

Su Chen paused, then asked again: "What's the name of that song?"

The woman said: "Lao and Yan will fly apart."

Su Chen hesitated, "Could it be that the girl is emotionally hurt?"

The woman laughed, she covered her face, but Su Chen could hear her laughter, it was an extremely sad smile: "Shrike, Swallow, how could it be love?"

Su Chen continued to shout: "Girl, why not come down and talk to me, if you feel unhappy, it's always happier to say it."

The woman said, "How do you know that I want to talk to someone?"

But Su Chen said: "If the girl doesn't want to tell others, why bother to follow me all the way in the middle of the night with singing?"

The woman smiled again and said: "You are really passionate. I just sang, and I really invited people to the banquet, but I didn't invite you."

Su Chen said: "This is not a suitable place to hold a banquet. You might as well go back to the inn with me. There are not only wine and vegetables there, but also you don't need to get cold in the rain."

The woman said: "I don't need those things for my banquet."

Su Chen asked curiously, "Is there any banquet without food and drink?"

The woman said, "I don't want mine."

Su Chen asked again: "Then what kind of banquet will you use?"

The woman said: "Human life."

Just as he was talking, there was a thunderstorm, and through the lightning and thunder, he looked in through the gate, and he happened to be able to see the main hall of the original manor, and there was a person hanging in the main hall.

Su Chen looked over the door again, and the woman had disappeared.

"Don't be afraid, you are not on my list of guests." The woman's voice came from the rain again, but she couldn't find the source, "However, you can help me invite the guests I missed."

Su Chen rushed into the main hall, and only then did he see clearly the hanging person.

It's Fu Qiuqin.

Su Chen untied her, the body was still warm, but she was already dead.

"Ding dong!"

There was a bell in the rainstorm outside the door.

"I knew I wouldn't be the only one who won't be able to sleep tonight." Su Chen put down the corpse and stood up straight, turning his back to the visitor.

"But some people never have to worry about not being able to fall asleep." Lai Ren said.

Su Chen said: "Are you sure that I killed the person?"

The man said: "I never said it, but in this case, your Excellency should avoid it."

Su Chen turned around and looked at Tiesan who was standing in the rain with an iron umbrella but not holding an umbrella: "Then how can I avoid it based on what you have seen?"

Tie San slowly opened the umbrella: "Of course, follow me back to the inn."

Su Chen stared at Tie Umbrella without answering.

Ding!
The bell on the umbrella rang.

In an instant, the umbrella bone passed against Su Chen's throat.Only when he got close did Su Chen see clearly the cold light on the iron umbrella.

Ding Ding Ding!
The gentle sound of the bell sounded in Su Chen's ears as if Hong Zhong Dalu was exploding in his ears, which made him suddenly unable to stand still.

Tie San didn't pursue him either, but held up his umbrella and said, "Your Excellency, it's better to go back with me."

Su Chen smiled and asked, "Did you see a woman when you came here?"

While speaking, his hand had already grasped the handle of the iron umbrella.

Tie San suddenly closed the umbrella to force Su Chen to let go, then stabbed the umbrella in Su Chen's chest like a sword, and replied at the same time: "I never saw it."

Accompanied by the straight stabbing of the umbrella, there was another burst of jingling, but Tiesan felt that the iron umbrella was stuck in a quagmire, and even the sound of the bell became sluggish.

Su Chen pushed with both hands, and Tiesan took several steps back before standing firmly in the rain.

"Then how did you get your roots?" Su Chen asked without pursuing.

Tie San didn't move this time, and just replied: "I couldn't sleep either, so I watched from the window, and it happened that Your Excellency came out, so I followed curiously."

Su Chen said, "You only saw me coming out, but you didn't see Mrs. Fu coming out?"

Iron Three was silent.

Su Chen said again: "You saw me coming out, but you didn't hear the singing?"

Tiesan was silent again.

Su Chen said aggressively: "You followed me all the way, but you didn't see me talking to that woman?"

Tiesan remained silent.

Su Chen stared at him: "Even so, do you still believe that I killed the man?"

Tiesan finally spoke, and he said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that you really didn't kill the person."

This time it was Su Chen's turn to be puzzled.

Tiesan said: "Of course I didn't follow you all the way, I came to find someone."

"Who are you looking for?" Su Chen asked.

Tiesan said: "Of course I'm looking for Mrs. Fu."

Su Chen frowned: "How do you know she left the inn?"

Tiesan said: "Of course Mrs. Fu's maid, Xiaomei, said it."

Su Chen said, "Xiaomei is alright?"

Tie San shook his head: "Of course it's not okay to be knocked out, but compared to the master, she, a maid, can be said to be okay."
