Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Patriarch of the Shen family
What a Shen's Villa.

As expected of a century-old family, not only the house is magnificent, but even the name is so magnificent, it really feels like a big family living in seclusion.

"Bai Tingyue, knock on the door." Liu Juanzhi put his hands in his trouser pockets casually, and raised his chin slightly to signal the closed wooden door.

"Oh." I was still looking at the plaque on the lintel, and when I heard the snake beckon me, I bent my knuckles and knocked on the door panel a few times reluctantly.

"Do Do Do Do."

After waiting for a while, there was no movement inside the door at all. I persistently raised my hand and knocked a few more times, but the thick wooden door was still closed tightly, and no one answered at all.

"That...Little sister Bai, you can't knock like this." Aunt Xu has been standing behind us, and when she saw this, she walked forward and came to my side. bring it on."

That's right, I didn't expect this floor. Seeing her raise her hand, I hurried to the door to give her two steps.

Aunt Xu didn't hesitate either, she clenched her fist with one hand and slammed on the door panel hard, the thick door panel made a "dong dong" sound like a drum beating.While pounding on the door vigorously, she shouted loudly: "Master Shen! Please open the door, Master Shen!"

It is estimated that she has only been here before, so she has some experience, and Aunt Xu's trick will soon bear fruit.

"Who! It's so late at night to cry for injustice!"

The thick wooden door was opened a crack, and a man in a gray Republic of China blouse walked out with the help of the door.

His face was red, his footsteps were a little vain, and he smelled badly of alcohol. When he saw Aunt Xu knocking on the door, he gave a "tsk" and said impatiently, "Why is it you again? Is home a charity? Go, go, don't disturb me drinking with my brothers."

This person's attire does not look like the master of the Shen family, and looking at his vulgar and rude behavior, he is probably just a servant of the Zhuangzi's gatekeeper.

Aunt Xu was chased away as soon as she came, and was about to speak in a hurry, I took her hand silently, gave her a look, then turned to look at the person who opened the door, and said calmly: "I am the one who wants to visit Mr. , why don't you even ask, and open your mouth to chase people away?"

The man looked over drunk, collected himself, and immediately changed his face as if changing his face, and said to me with a playful smile: "Oh, she is a beauty! Hey, beauty, you want to visit our master Shen, do you have a greeting card? "

I don't even know this family named Shen, so where did I get the invitation?I had no choice but to squeeze my palms, and bit the bullet to deny: "No."

"Oh... this is going to be difficult." The man burped, propped his elbow on the door, and looked very embarrassed, "Beauty, it's really not that I don't let you in, it's just that the Shen family has a rule." If you don’t have that, I’m just a gatekeeper, how can I let you in without authorization?”

The young land seemed to be saying the same thing before, people who came to see Mr. Shen had to make an appointment several months in advance. At that time, it was interesting to hear the sarcasm in his tone. Looking at it now, this Shen family is indeed rich and arrogant, difficult to deal with very.

I'm at a loss, just feeling a little embarrassed, Liu Juanzhi's deep and cold voice passed over my head from behind and landed in front of this door: "If it's the king of the snake tribe who comes to visit, don't we have to follow these rules? Is that tissue paper okay?"

The man at the door followed the magnetic and indifferent voice, and his eyes just touched Liu Wangzhi's bottomless peach blossom pool, and he saw that pair of bewitchingly beautiful eyes turned into golden vertical pupils and stared at him intently. He was frightened all over, and staggered back in shock, but he tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.

"You, you, you...you are..." The gatekeeper's tongue was tied up, and he couldn't get his legs back on the threshold, so he could only sit on the ground in embarrassment, unable to answer for a long time.

Liu Wangzhi's eyes had returned to normal pupils, and with one hand in his pocket, he looked down at him condescendingly: "Go, report to your Master Shen. My patience is limited, I advise you to hurry up."

The janitor was seven minutes sober in an instant, nodded and said "yes" repeatedly, and got up from the ground with all his hands and feet, and then he didn't even care to close the door, and ran back to report the news.

Aunt Xu is an ordinary person, she didn't see Liu Wangzhi's eyes just now, so she didn't understand the situation for a while, but she was sensible and didn't ask any more questions.

I looked back at the snake, lightly touched his arm with my shoulder, and whispered: "It seems that it must be you, Lord Snake."

Liu Wangzhi looked as usual, turned around and went to the side to light a cigarette, exhaled a puff of white mist with his thin lips slightly parted, raised his eyelashes and looked at me lightly: "After you go in later, listen to my arrangement."

As soon as I heard this, my heart skipped a beat for no reason, and while thinking that the snake should stop tricking me, I nodded to him with concerns.

The man at the door ran back not long after, and led several people in the same clothes as him to open the gate of Shen's mansion, then stood in two rows and bowed their heads to salute, and respectfully invited us into Shen's Villa.

Aunt Xu stepped into the threshold with us, she couldn't hide her joy and excitement on her face, and seeing those tricky servants treated Liu Huangzhi so well, she couldn't help but quietly asked me about our origins.

How could I tell her the truth, so I had no choice but to pretend to be deep, saying that it was a secret that should not be revealed.

Bypassing the stone carving screen standing at the entrance, there is a spacious courtyard with lush flower beds and neatly trimmed plants. Bright stone lamps decorate the road extension, and go up and down along the edge of the steps opposite.

After climbing the three-story nine-step stone steps, a majestic main building greets our eyes. Dozens of servants in dark blue blouses stand on both sides of the red carpet to greet us, waiting for us to step into the building. The threshold of the main building is straightened and bent at ninety degrees.

"Shen didn't know that the Snake Lord came to the door, and he was far away from welcoming him. Please forgive me."

Just now we stood still in the luxuriously decorated hall, Master Shen got up from the grand master's chair in the high hall, walked in front of us to greet him personally.

"It doesn't matter. The sudden visit, I should be bothering you." Liu Wangzhi's figure was clear and bright with a kind of natural dignity, and his expression was as indifferent and alienated as before.

Master Shen had a pleasant smile, his face was radiant, and he bowed his hands to Liu Wangzhi repeatedly: "Where is it, you have come here and made my Shen family flourish. It is really my Shen family's luck."

Coming down behind him, there were two young women in cheongsams, one on the left and one on the right, by his side, smiling at Liu Wangzhi.

Taking advantage of this person and snake walking around here, I took a little look at the legendary Shen family Patriarch.

The middle-aged man in front of him seemed to be in his fifties. He was wearing a Chinese tunic suit of the Republic of China with high-quality fabrics and exquisite sewing. His thick hair was dyed black and shiny. People seem to be full of energy, without the slightest hint of yin.

It seems that the sacrifice on the Bone River is really useful.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the Patriarch of the Shen family invited us to sit on the carved wooden chairs in the hall, and then ordered the two young beauties to serve tea in person, while he himself stood where he was, and said warmly to Liu Wangzhi: "Dare to ask the Snake King to come to the humble house, What is it for?"

"To tell you the truth, I really want to trouble you with two things." Liu Wangzhi leaned on the back of the chair, folded his long legs casually, and tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the wooden chair with his slender fingers.

"Oh?" Master Shen's smile did not change, "Then you might as well say, if you can help, Shen will definitely not refuse."

"It's just two small things, it's not difficult for you." Liu Juanzhi took the teacup from the woman in cyan cheongsam, lifted the white porcelain tea cover and gently scraped the rim of the cup, his eyes drooped slightly, and he spoke slowly Blowing on the tea smoke, "As for the first thing, I want you to go to hell for this woman and find her missing child."

"Don't worry, I won't ask you to work in vain, and I will also give you an equal reward."

After hearing the words, Aunt Xu hurriedly took the opportunity to strike up a conversation, and roughly told the story of her daughter's loss.

"This..." Master Shen frowned after hearing this, and looked at Liu Wangzhi with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid Lord Snake must forgive me for this matter, I'm afraid there is nothing Shen can do."

Liu Wangzhi paused while sipping tea, raised those deserted peach blossom eyes, and asked indifferently, "Why?"

I sat beside Liu Wangzhi with a cup of tea and listened, and I didn't quite understand it, after all, isn't this the Shen family's housekeeping skill? As the head of the Shen family, why does he say he can't do anything?

Master Shen cupped his hands and spoke sincerely: "It's not that Shen is unwilling to help, but that the Shen family has a dark side and has always only dealt with dead souls. The life and death of this woman's child is unknown, and it is not convenient for my Shen family to come forward to avoid spoiling the situation." Followed the rules of the clan."

Liu Wangzhi put down the teacup, frowned slightly: "If you don't try it, how will you know whether the child is alive or dead?"

"But..." Master Shen was very worried, and his face became very serious.

"How about this." Liu Wangzhi sat on the chair and looked at him with one hand, "If you are willing to go this way, I will not only pay you according to the Shen family's market price, but also give you two other snakes. What do you think of the beauty entering your house?"

Master Shen was still in a dilemma, but when he heard the words, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashed for a moment: "Mr. Snake, are you serious?"

My hand holding the teacup trembled, and I gave Liu Juan a weird look, I didn't expect that this snake would be able to do what humans do, and play "teaching and seduction" perfectly.

But... how does he know whether Master Shen can accept the beauties of the Yaozu?
As I lowered my head and thought, the white cheongsam woman who had just served me tea came over again, put the fruit plate in her hand beside me, and asked me to eat it slowly with a smile.

I listened carefully just now, and forgot to thank her. This time I specifically looked up at her, but before I said "thank you", I was taken aback by her appearance.

This woman has a graceful figure, walks with a fragrance, and has a beautiful appearance, but her eyes... the pupils are like cherry blossoms in full bloom, showing a faint pink color.

...is a demon.

I realized this, and looked at the beauty in blue cheongsam who was serving beside Liu Wangzhi in surprise, only to see that the woman's complexion was naturally pale as paper, but it seemed that the red lips were too bright.

As if sensing my gaze, the beauty suddenly raised her eyes and smiled at me.

The corners of the slightly parted red lips were curved, and a long and red tongue slipped out from the lips, and the woman's pretty face was covered with black lines like spider silk...
