Lord, I'm floating

Chapter 108

Taking advantage of the night, the elegant Chen Mou, wearing a cloak, walked into the "Linglong Pavilion" shop in Fangshi mysteriously. He picked and picked, and spent 150 spirit stones to buy a copywriting confession of a precious bamboo root carving. It is elegant and interesting. Good meaning.

Leave a name card and instruct the store manager to send it to Hou Longyuan's mansion, the steward of Lingtian in Fangshi tomorrow morning, to congratulate steward Hou on his birthday, and he will come to the shop to check the signature when he turns back.

To give a wealthy person a small gift with originality and originality, one must be willing to spend a lot of money to get the essence of gift-giving.

Seeing the guest's cloak covering his face, the shopkeeper obviously didn't want to be seen by others, but asked for the steward Hou, throwing stones with heavy gifts to ask for directions.

Naturally, he readily agreed, Linglong Pavilion is famous for its luxury and expensiveness, and he often gives gifts to customers, and he is familiar with the way.

Chen Mou walked out of the shop, went down the mountain through a forest, and disappeared into the darkness of night.

I once heard Mo Fu say that every year on Hou Longyuan's birthday, people would let out the news in advance and set up a few tables in Xiankeju to entertain relatives, friends and colleagues in Fangshi.

Lingzhi husbands who rent more than [-] acres of lingtian in Fangshi must come to their door to give a decent birthday gift. The concierge will register their names in order to get some care from the steward of the lingtian. Not qualified to eat the banquet of Hou Guanshi.

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, because of a big case, Hou Guanshi was in the mood to celebrate his birthday with a dinner.

This year the limelight has passed, and Hou Guanshi, who is used to the benefits, has returned to his old ways.

Chen Mou used the name of the old man Zhuang who had a good relationship with Mo Fu before, and sent a gift that Hou Longyuan could put on the table. thief.

Maybe he can seek justice for Mo Fu.

On the night of the second day, Chen Mou, dressed in a black costume and wearing a cloak on his head, sat cross-legged on the futon of the cave in another world. Through the imprint he left on the root carving, he used his spiritual sense to carefully spy on the movement within seven or eight feet.

The soul has been greatly improved several times, and the detection range of his consciousness has already reached ten feet away.

He was very patient, squatting for almost a day, "seeing" the gifts he sent with his own eyes. Precious and exquisite gifts were displayed in a dazzling array.

Through the conversation with the maid, I know that Master Hou will come to the study to check the gift list at night, and have a look at the gifts he has picked out.

Whether to keep it for yourself to enjoy, or give it away, or put it in the warehouse for storage, Mr. Hou must do it himself, and not let the maid do it for him.

The door of the room, which had been silent for a long time, opened, and a maid walked in first holding the lamp, followed by Hou Guanshi, who was fat, rich, and red-faced. He seemed to have drunk a lot. A carved chair sits beside the table.

Accompanied by a gray-clothed man who walked in, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at the desk.

Chen Mou, who was monitored by Gu Yu with his spiritual sense across a world, quietly withdrew his divine sense, sitting cross-legged and motionless.

He guessed that the gray-clothed man had a foundation-building cultivation base, and his perception was very keen. He was a master, and he was detected by the other party as soon as he touched it.

"Qian'an, what's wrong?"

Manager Hou looked at the gray-clothed man who was looking around vigilantly.

"It seemed that someone was spying just now, just for a moment, master, why don't you avoid it first?"

The gray-clothed man said through voice transmission that in just a short moment, he had scanned the study several times up and down, including the green and potted plants in the corner, and fixed his eyes on the only bookcase that could hide people under the antique shelf opposite.

Hou Longyuan worked hard to dissipate the smell of alcohol on his body, and sneered: "You can do whatever you want, but I want to see who has the guts of a bear, dares to hide, and wants to do something wrong?"

Having said that, with a shake of his left hand, he had already taken a talisman and held it in the palm of his hand, in case of accidents.

The two maids made small movements each, sideways guarding behind Master Hou.

The gray-clothed man stopped talking and walked towards the bookcase step by step. Under the watchful eyes of the other three people in the room, he yanked open the door of the cabinet with all his strength.

Except for some boxes, books, and scrolls, there is nothing to see inside, and there are no thieves hiding.

"Master, I suspect that outsiders have entered the house."

The man in gray didn't relax, and said solemnly.

The feeling at that moment before was definitely being spied on by someone with divine sense.

He judged that the other party's cultivation base would not be too high and had not reached the foundation building stage, and the servants and maids in the Hou's mansion all knew the rules and did not dare to use their spiritual sense indiscriminately. .

Today is Master Hou's 98th birthday. There are people coming and going in the house, maybe some thieves got in?

"Open the study protection."

Hou Longyuan turned his head to the purple-clothed and skirted maid on the left to give orders.

The maid in a skirt bowed to answer "Yes", took out a small disc from her sleeve, manipulated it a few times, and the entire study was shrouded in the protection of a silent and independent formation, isolating outside probes.

"Qian'an, you go out and recruit people, so you can check it out. Don't let go of the rockery cave in the front yard and the dark place in the garden behind the yard. Ziyan, go and have a look, and separate the yards you have checked with formations. Anyone who dares to run around will be punished severely. Hou Gui, that idiot, guarded the gate of the house, fed too much horse urine, and his tricks are no longer effective. When the thief is found, he will be whipped a few times to make him reflect on himself."

Hou Longyuan was very annoyed to arrange it, and waved his hand.

The man in gray and the maid in the skirt agreed to open the door and go out, then gently closed the door tightly.

His interest was suddenly swept away, Hou Longyuan couldn't get excited about admiring the gift, closed his eyes slightly, leaned back on the back of the chair, and listened to another maid in the room wearing a pink skirt read the gift list lightly.

It took some time, and after reading the two different gift lists, the maid turned and walked to the desk to get the selected gifts on the table.

A figure appeared behind the maid in the pink skirt, and before the maid could react, her fist was like a hammer, hitting the acupuncture point on the side of the back of the woman's neck. , and then fell softly to the ground, fainted.

Hou Longyuan opened his eyes suddenly, facing the sudden cold light and sharp sword, he had a ghostly expression on his face, fear had already occupied his thinking, his whole body was stiff, he instinctively wanted to move his fingers to take out the talisman in his sleeve to protect himself, and then wanted to move to the side Dodge the danger, but the movements can't keep up.

His mind was almost blank, he didn't seem to believe that there was someone else hiding in the study that the guard of the Foundation Establishment had inspected, let alone that someone sneaked into the yard to assassinate him.

He watched as Lightning pierced his chest with a sword.

"Pfft", the dark red long sword easily pierced through Hou Guanshi who had changed into a normal uniform, and Chen Mou's face covered under the cloak showed no relaxation or expression.

He deduced the scene where he was going to fight Hou Guanshi several times, but it didn't appear. Although the opponent had a perfect Qi refining state and had been pampered for many years, his foundation was hollowed out by wine and sex. Facing the surprise attack, he behaved vulnerable.

With a few swipes of his left hand, he took all the ten kinds of gifts on the desk to the cave in the other world, including the two gift lists, and pierced Hou Guanshi, who was seriously injured and dying, together with the carved seat under his buttocks, on the sword and took them away. He reached the top of Tianbei Peak, but before leaving, he waved his left hand and released two unusual flames to the bookshelf Bogu shelf across the room.

He has become more and more proficient in destroying form and destroying traces.

"Bang", the flame exploded, and the bookshelves, Bogu racks, books, scrolls and other items burned instantly.

The gray-clothed man who led people to check up and down the courtyard of the Hou's mansion suddenly turned his head, his face changed drastically, and he shouted, "No, the master was attacked!"

When he rushed into the second yard, seeing the thick smoke rising from the fire in the study, he felt chills in his heart.

Where did he go wrong?
The study room has activated a protective formation, why did the thief break in?
"Ziyan, hurry up, open the study formation and save the master."

He didn't have a weapon that could go in and out of the study room, so he turned around and shouted sharply.

When the frightened maid frantically opened the formation, everyone rushed in. Apart from rescuing the fainting maid in the pink skirt, there were only violent flames and thick smoke left in the room.

Where is the shadow of Master Hou?
There were some blood left on the ground, which was shocking, indicating that something bad had happened.
