Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 98
What are you doing, is Miss Shen's aunt trying to find fault with her? How can she ask such a private question in public?
I was suddenly mentioned by name, and my expression was slightly taken aback. Before I could explain, Master Shen scolded her first: "Third brother, Hugh is so rude!"

"Brother, what are you in a hurry for?" The lady curled her red lips and smiled lightly, holding up the red wine glass on the table with her jade hand, shaking it gently, "You guys are chatting, isn't that what we women talk about, why blame me Disrespectful."

Seeing the two brothers and sisters getting angry again, I don't know whether I should speak up or not. At this time, the best way is to look at Liu Wangzhi, throw this hot potato to him, and let him solve it. this problem.

Liu Wangzhi didn't talk much today, just now he heard Master Shen talking about Dashan just casually "hmm" a few times, now seeing me looking at him, he raised his eyes and glanced at Aunt Shen, without any emotion, said: "Do you think I have nothing to do with you?" What's her relationship?"

This kind of talk can't be said indiscriminately, and the aunt was stopped immediately.She put down her wine glass, straightened her body, and replied in a low voice: "This... forgive me for not daring to speculate."

"Really." Liu Wangzhi laughed lowly, leaned on the back of the chair and lifted his eyelashes, and looked at her coldly, "Don't dare to speculate, then you still dare to ask?"

Anyone with a discerning eye could hear the displeasure in Liu Wangzhi's words, Miss Shen's face turned pale instantly, she quickly stood up and offered a toast to Liu Wangzhi to make amends.

Master Shen also came out to smooth things over, first let his sister punish herself with three cups, and then drank the white wine in the cup with her.

Seeing this, Shen Lian also got up quickly, and walked directly to Liu Wangzhi's side with the wine glass, frowning her eyebrows, looking weak and pitiful: "Mr. Snake, Auntie, she has no intention of offending, please calm down. This glass of wine is mine. Apologize for her, do you think it's okay?"

After finishing speaking, he directly held the wine glass to his lips, trying to look up to the empty glass.

I was propping my head up to watch the play silently, but who would have thought that the snake suddenly raised his hand to take the goblet in her hand, turned his hand and put it on the table casually, raised his eyes and said indifferently: "You are not well, so you don't need to drink it. Go sit down." let's go."

"Yes. Thank you Lord Snake." A look of joy appeared in Shen Lian's eyes, she nodded, bowed again, and sat down next to me with a smile.

Liu Wangzhi has always been indifferent to everyone, but he suddenly thought of Shen Lian's weakness, and even took her glass and refused to let her drink?

I recalled the scene I saw yesterday when I came back from Zou Yin, and I remembered that Liu Juzhi was standing with Shen Lian at that time, although his face was cold, at least he listened to her patiently.

So, maybe he is really interested in Shen Lian?
I sat between the two of them, and suddenly I felt uncomfortable all over. I was inexplicably irritable, and I had the urge to get up and leave immediately.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Master Shen wanted to start talking politely again, but Liu Wangzhi didn't continue to listen this time, but interrupted him coldly.

"Master Shen, after chatting for so long, it's time to talk about serious business." Liu Wangzhi left the back of the chair, looked up at the master's house, "The second matter, I want to ask you for news."

Master Shen also restrained his smooth face, and nodded to him uprightly: "Snake Lord, please tell me, Mr. Shen will know everything."

"It's not about anything else, it's about the things sent by the Hu family."

Liu Wangzhi didn't hide anything, and told him straight to the point, "A few days ago, you picked up what you took from the Hu family in Xiang County. You must know it well. I came to Fengtian for nothing else, just to get it back. My stuff. So, where is that stuff now?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three elders of the Shen family changed slightly.

Second Master Shen moved his eyes slightly, cast a glance at the Patriarch of the Shen family, and bowed his head to eat in silence.Aunt Shen moved her body, opened the feather fan and kept fanning.

Master Shen was only in a daze for a moment, and soon recovered his smile, then clasped his hands, put his arms on the table, and smiled at Liu Wangzhi: "Mr. Snake is joking, I live in the northeast of Shen, and Xiang County is far in the southwest. How could Shen know the Hu family you mentioned, let alone have any contact with them."

Aunt Shen stopped shaking her fan, and said with a smile, "That's right, Mr. Snake, our Shen family is only in the shady business. We've never heard of the things you said."

I was sitting opposite Miss Shen, and I could clearly see her quietly clenched hand.

Leaving aside her nervous appearance, the two brothers and sisters had always been tit-for-tat before. Why did you mention this, and suddenly the siblings are united and wearing the same pair of underpants?

It's tricky, there is definitely something tricky in it.

"Really." Liu Wangzhi didn't change his face, and raised his wine glass to signal, "It seems that this gentleman got the wrong information and made it difficult for Master Shen. This glass is toast to you, thank you for your hospitality."

The corners of Master Shen's mouth gradually widened, and he quickly stood up holding his wine glass in return.

The two put down their wine glasses, Liu Wangzhi suddenly stretched his legs, moved the chair back, and stood up from his seat: "Since the matter has been understood, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you any more."

"As for the negotiated remuneration, people from the Snake Clan will deliver it to the mansion in person within three days."

Seeing that Liu Wangzhi was about to leave Shen's house, I hurriedly stood up, Master Shen thanked us, sent us out, and even accompanied us all the way to the gate of the villa.

When we came, we had no luggage, so we left simply, we said goodbye to Mr. Shen, and the two of us turned around and walked down the mountain.

I stepped on the stone steps, looked back at the closed gate of Shen Yuan, and said to Liu Wangzhi in some puzzlement: "You really believe what they say? Do you think that what you want is really not in Shen's house?"

Liu Wangzhi didn't turn his head back, and stared into the distance indifferently: "They want to bite to death, but I can pry their teeth open and make them spit out."

"It's not like you." I frowned, "You majestic snake lord, you let their Shen family villa be burned with the flick of a finger, how can you let them lie to your face."

"Spirits who hurt people at will will be punished by the gods. That's what little demons with insufficient cultivation do." Liu Wangzhi said without emotion, "The Shen family has a big problem, not just the contact with the Hu family. Related, and..."

"Mr. Snake! Please stop, Mr. Snake!"

Liu Wangzhi was halfway speaking, but was interrupted by a female voice from behind.

When we stopped and turned around, we saw Shen Lian chasing after her with her skirt, the maid kept calling her to run slower, but she didn't hear it, and chased all the way to Liu Juanzhi.

"Mr. Snake, cough cough... I, I have something to tell you." She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed, tears welling from her eyes.

"Slow down, why are you running in such a hurry." Liu Wangzhi frowned slightly, and said that he cared about Shen Lian.

Resisting the urge to roll my eyes, I simply turned around without looking at the two of them.

Shen Lian was quite happy, she took a breath, patted her chest lightly and said: "I don't care, you listen to me first, about the thing you are looking for, in fact, Dad and the others have lied."

She looked back to confirm that there was no one there, and then said in a low voice, "That thing is indeed in the Shen family, and it is hidden in the forbidden place that the Shen family uses for sacrifices, Guiyuan."

"Guiyuan?" I looked back at her suddenly, with doubts in my eyes, "Since it is the Shen family's forbidden area, why did you tell us?"

"I..." Shen Lian paused, covered her mouth and coughed twice again, her eyes and cheeks were a little red, "I couldn't bear to let Lord Snake be disappointed, so I chased after him without telling my father. As for whether you believe it or not, it's all up to you, Lord Snake Own."

Seeing her coughing non-stop, the maid beside her urged her to go back and take the medicine.

Shen Lian was also worried that her father would find out if she ran out, so she frowned hesitantly.

I know she is interested in Liu Wangzhi, but no one can be sure of the truth of this statement.Suddenly recalling what Heihua and their snakes said last night, I can't help but wonder, if I put aside other reasons, should I really go to this legendary ghost abyss?
After all, Xu Wanqing's whereabouts have not been found yet, since the snake promised to give Aunt Xu an answer, it shouldn't just walk away like this.

Shen Lian's words are straightforward, it is impossible for Liu Wangzhi not to understand.He looked down at Shen Lian, but there was no wave in his eyes: "Go back, don't follow."

After finishing speaking, he stopped staying, turned around and continued walking down the mountain.

Shen Lian's eyes soon became moist when she saw him so indifferent, I followed Liu Wang down a few steps, and I could still hear her secretly sobbing behind me.

It wasn't until I turned a corner along the mountain road that I raised my eyes to glance at the snake and asked, "Miss Shen is crying like this, so you left like that?"

Liu Wangzhi looked down the river valley expressionlessly, and said casually, "Then what do you think?"

I curled my lips and turned my head to look elsewhere: "I don't dare to speculate on your thoughts, Lord Snake, lest I find myself guilty."

Liu Wangzhi stopped walking suddenly, I continued to go down without stopping, suddenly a pair of arms wrapped around my waist and lifted me up, before I could react, it turned into the familiar doll hug again in an instant.

"Bai Tingyue." Liu Juanzhi hugged me with one hand on his buttocks, his eyebrows raised slightly, "Are you jealous?"

"Don't dare." I put my hand on his shoulder and met his gaze calmly, "Don't worry, Mr. Snake, I know who I am. I also remember your rules."

Liu Wangzhi's eyes were slightly cold, he looked at me for a moment, then said coldly: "That's the best."

As soon as the words fell, he led me into a cloud of smoke, directly changed the direction of going down the mountain, circled the valley, and flew towards the back of the Shen Family Villa.

The speed of Yufeng is too fast, and the vision is blurred, but the deeper the valley is, the lower the temperature is obviously.

It is clearly still afternoon now, but the surrounding area is already as dark as when the sky is about to end. After Liu Wangzhi cast a spell and flashed into a barrier, he saw gray-black water mist rolling violently in the canyon. as low as less than one meter.

The wind here is cold and overbearing, and it hurts a little when it blows on the side of the face.When we landed on the river beach, we looked down and saw a mountain of animal bones piled up under our feet, almost so thick that we could not see the original pebbles underneath.

Inevitably, I stepped on the bones, moved forward carefully, and couldn't help asking Liu Wangzhi: "Tell me, how many animals does the Shen family consume for sacrifices in a year? Just look at the number of bones. Outrageous."

"If you want to repay the debt, you have to sacrifice at least three times a month. Based on the calculation of ten cattle and sheep at a time, at least thirty cattle and sheep in a month." Liu Wangzhi stepped on the bone beach and still walked steadily, and his tone was neither salty nor weak, "What's more There are only three of the Shen family who took over the mantle, plus their spouses and children, you can do the math yourself."

"What? Will the spouse and children also owe debts?" I was a little surprised, but then I thought of Shen Lian.

Her body is so weak that there is almost no need to answer this question, as there is already a ready-made verification.

"If it's only counted as a sin, it won't affect your own family." Liu Wangzhi stopped suddenly while walking, "But if the intention is not right, trying to steal other people's life from the sacrifice, then it's not necessarily true. "

"What do you mean?" I was confused, and saw Liu Wangzhi standing still, curiously following the direction of his downcast eyes.

Seeing this, his legs suddenly softened!
All I saw was a white human-headed skeleton among thousands of bones whose original shape could not be discerned in front of me!
