Chapter 217: Misty Smoke and Misty Smoke
The main hall of Ziyue Villa is called [Yueshan Hall].

Tonight's dinner was originally scheduled here.

The big table has been set up, just waiting for everyone to sit down and then the food can be served.

However, nowadays, this dish is obviously no longer available.

The body of Taoist Wild Dog is now hanging in front of the door of Yueshan Hall.

The body was in pieces, only half of it was hanging, and the rest were stumps and broken arms, scattered in all directions and thrown everywhere.

There was a note hanging on the body.

The five words "Yours sincerely from the Setting Sun Gate" were written in blood.

Not only obvious, but rampant.

Meng Xiu's face was trembling, and he was furious when he saw this scene.

At this moment, there were not only people from Ziyue Villa, but also Dugu Xiong and his grandson, as well as your young master, Chu Yunniang, and Shang Qianhu.

Lin Wanyi opened the folding fan in her hand and covered her mouth and nose.

At this time, he stood up and looked at Meng Xiu:

"Manager Meng, this is wrong."

As the chief steward of Ziyue Villa, Meng Xiu is still able to keep his composure:

"Miss Lin San, do you have any advice?"

"People don't die here."

Lin Wanyi said:
"The shape of the blood splatter is wrong... If he died here, it wouldn't be like now, with a bunch here and a bunch there...

“When the body breaks apart, it will spray out.

“He was probably beaten to death somewhere else, and then the body was moved here and hung here.

"But if this happens, this problem will arise."

"Indeed."

Chu Yunniang also nodded after hearing this:
"Today's dinner is held here. If someone carries the body and hangs it in front of the hall...how can these servants and boys not see it?
"How could he be so unaware of anything?"

Hearing this, Meng Xiu suddenly looked at the servants present:

"Have you ever seen anyone?"

He had sharp eyes and had accumulated authority for many years. Now he shouted, frightening all the servants around him.

Immediately they all knelt down:

"I waited... I didn't see anything."

"Yes, please forgive me, supervisor. I'm just setting up here... When I turn around, when I look back, this person is hanging on it."

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this:
"How long did it take to turn around? What did you turn around to do?"

"When I came back to the distinguished guests, I just turned around and placed the wine glasses, arranged the chopsticks, spoons and other utensils. Then I turned around and this corpse appeared."

When the man said this, his face turned pale, as if he had thought of the fear at that moment, and his body was trembling slightly.

This is normal... Although Ziyue Villa is a martial arts family, not all its disciples know martial arts.

Most of these servants were ordinary people. They were doing their jobs well, but when they turned around and suddenly saw a mutilated corpse, the surprise was definitely no small matter.

"It seems……"

Dugu Xiong said coldly at this time:
“Either this guy is lying, or they secretly plotted to kill Taoist Wild Dog and perjured each other.

"Either...the mystery appears nearby.

"Manager Meng, is there any secret secret in Yueshan Hall of Ziyue Villa that is not known to others?"

Meng Xiu's face became even more gloomy after hearing this:
"Mr. Dugu, don't talk nonsense, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with my Ziyue Villa!
"What's more, we have no enmity against this wild dog Taoist, so how can we cause harm?"

This seems to be an inappropriate answer to the question, but everyone present is not a fool, and they all understand why Meng Xiu said this.

After all, these two items proposed by Dugu Xiong were all aimed at Ziyue Villa.

The first one said that these servants took action, in other words, it was no different from Ziyue Villa's action.

The second article also said that there is a secret passage in Yueshan Hall... But the question is, how can others know about the secret passage in Ziyue Villa?

It would be great if the people of Ziyue Villa did this thing... But if it was really the Setting Sun Sect that used Ziyue Villa's secret channel to act.

So what is the relationship between Ziyue Villa and Setting Sun Gate?
How can the Setting Sun Sect know the secret passage of Ziyue Villa?

There was still the matter of the Qin family ahead of him, and Meng Huan claimed that there was no reasonable explanation for his illness.

Now that something like this happened again, if Meng Xiu admitted this, Ziyue Villa would probably lose its trust in the world.

Therefore, Meng Xiu didn't even bother talking about the secret passage and directly stated his position.

Duguxiong laughed twice and waved his hands gently:
"Manager Meng, don't be anxious, that's not what I mean."

"Please give me some advice, sir."

Meng Xiu took a deep breath, knowing that the outcome of the verbal dispute here might not be clear, so he said:

"The incident at the east window of the Setting Sun Gate happened, but we don't know how exactly what happened here.

"However, Taoist Wild Dog died in Ziyue Villa after all. We will definitely give an explanation for this matter.

"I will compile a book right now and send it to the Dahan Gang. I will ask the leader of the Dahan Gang to come in person and make the decision for Taoist Wild Dog."

But when he said this, he paused slightly:
"But if someone wants to use this to cause trouble and put the blame on others... We, Ziyue Villa, are by no means easy to bully."

"Are these words directed at our hero Jiang?"

Your young master laughed loudly at this moment:
"After all, we all know that there is some disagreement with Taoist Wild Dog, and there is only one person present, Daxia Jiang.

"Manager Meng's words just now have some meaning."

Meng Huan was stunned and glanced at Jiang Ran subconsciously:
"I have absolutely no such intention."

"of course."

Jiang Ran smiled: "Besides, if I want to kill this person, there is no need to blame the Can Yang Clan."

"That's the truth."

Meng Xiu nodded repeatedly: "I'm just sorry, everyone, I'm afraid there is no way to continue tonight's dinner. Later, I will send people to deliver the food to your room... I will ask you to come in the room , eat on your own."

Having said that, it's almost the same.

Jiang Ran and others had no intention of staying here anymore, so they turned and left.

Lin Wanyi had been following Jiang Ran for some time.

Jiang Ran took two steps and looked back at her.

"Hero Jiang."

Lin Wanyi cupped her fists and raised her hands.

Jiang Ran pondered for a moment:
"What do you think is going on?"

"I feel that the matter happened at Ziyue Villa...

“There are more and more coincidences.

"As soon as the Dongchuang incident occurred at Canyang Gate, Meng Huan claimed that he was ill and could not come out.

"The way Taoist Wild Dog died was strange. If he hadn't been from Ziyue Villa, there would be no reason why he could have done this.

"There is an argument to be made for choosing one of the two, but adding the two together... Ziyue Villa will definitely not be innocent."

Lin Wanyi spoke seriously.

Jiang Ran smiled:
"Then what do you think the reason is?"

"……I have no idea."

Lin Wanyi shook his head.

Jiang Ran thought for a while and said:
"Perhaps this has something to do with Taoist Wild Dog's great wealth."

"Extreme wealth?"

Lin Wanyi was slightly startled.

Jiang Ran waved his hand:
"Let's just say it, it may not be correct... Moreover, you can't just accuse people randomly without evidence.

"But Ziyue Villa is getting more and more unstable, so you should be more careful."

"Yes."

When Lin Wanyi heard this, joy suddenly appeared on her face.

Jiang Ran has already stepped up his pace.

After this came and went, the sunset glow that was still hanging on the horizon also dissipated. At the beginning of the lanterns, Jiang Ran and others had their meals in the room.

It’s just that Ziyue Villa is destined to be uneventful tonight.

There were voices, footsteps, talking, and running around everywhere.

Jiang Ran listened to the noise and finally calmed down a little in the latter part of the night.

After a while, Jiang Ran turned off the lights, lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling quietly.

Time passed by minute by second, and suddenly a bamboo tube was stuffed into the window. After a while, wisps of smoke entered the room.

Jiang Ran sniffed it, smacked his lips and turned over.

After waiting for a moment, a crunching sound was heard.

The door bolt was pried open bit by bit with a small knife, and then a strong figure got into the room.

After closing the door, he looked at Jiang Ran.

I came over and checked for a while to make sure that he was completely asleep, and then I started to rummage in the room.

Just when this person found a box in the corner, he heard Jiang Ran's voice:
"How could Yan Huishou imitate Ximen style, go into other people's rooms, and become a gentleman in Liang Shang?"
“Besides, this is still at Ziyue Villa.

"The leader of the Baizhen Society sneaked in to steal things. If word spreads out, do you want to be a human being again?"

Yan Wushuang, who was about to open the box, paused.

He sighed softly, took out the fire folding bag from his arms, opened it, blew on it, and lit the lampstand.

"Then what are you going to do?"

She casually pulled off the black cloth on her face, and Yan Wushuang revealed her true face:
"Shout so loud that everyone knows?"

"What if that's the case?"

Jiang Ran leaned on the bed and asked with a smile.

Yan Wushuang thought for a moment and said:
"I am a woman..." Jiang Ran was stunned: "Then what?"

"I think I'm pretty good-looking."

"Yan Wushuang, naturally has an unparalleled appearance."

Jiang Ran agreed.

"What time is it now?"

"It's time to be ugly."

Jiang Ran said: "It's a good time to be a thief."

"In the dark, in the middle of the night, a beautiful woman sneaks into your room.

"Do you think that if word spreads, people will think that I am here to be a thief or someone to steal?"

Yan Wushuang slowly came to Jiang Ran:
"I heard that there is some unclear relationship between you and Miss Ye of Hongfeng Villa.

"What would she think if these words reached her ears?"

"She will only care about why you came to my room to be a thief."

Jiang Ran smiled hoarsely: "I just didn't expect that Yan Huisou would go around for a long time and just say such a small thing. The pure will become pure, and the dirty will become dirty. This kind of words is okay for fooling innocent young people, but it doesn't work for me. It doesn't work.

"After all, if the news really gets out, what do I, a grown man, have to care about?"

"...Believe it or not, I'm not here to steal anything."

Yan Wushuang spoke seriously:
"Ximen Feng said, you made a fake Jiaowei Qin."

"and then?"

"That piano was made before Sunset Ping."

"If you have anything to say, please explain it once and for all."

"Even people like me would miss Ximen Feng's craftsmanship. Therefore, the picture of Jiao Wei being taken away by Man Shengming on Sunset Ping is a fake...

"The real Jiaowei Qin is always in your hands!
"I came here just to confirm this matter... As long as I confirm that the piano is still in your hands, we can talk about the follow-up matters slowly."

Yan Wushuang smiled and said:
"This piano is actually not a big or small trouble for you, right?"

Jiang Ran looked at her and said nothing.

Yan Wushuang didn't speak either.

The four eyes meet each other, and each is speechless.

The eyes were all as dull as water, without any sparks of communication.

At this moment, Jiang Ran suddenly let out a sigh of relief, and the fire suddenly went out.

The next moment, the black shadow spread out and directly enveloped Yan Wushuang.

Yan Wushuang was surprised. She didn't expect that Jiang Ran didn't yell or continue talking to her, but instead took action directly.

Her martial arts skills are far inferior to Jiang Ran's, so how can she react now?

When he came back to his senses, his hands were already held by Jiang Ran. Immediately afterwards, he felt his waist tighten and his whole body was held in Jiang Ran's arms.

Seeing changes under his feet, with a hula, the two people turned into a ball and came directly to the bed.

Jiang Ran lifted up a corner of the quilt and raised it casually. The two of them rolled into the quilt at the same time, and then the quilt fell down.

Only then did Yan Wushuang remember that he had opened his mouth and could shout with all his strength.

But Jiang Ran obviously thought of this.

So he reached out and covered Yan Wushuang's mouth so that no word could come out of her voice.

You can only look at him with wide eyes, disbelief on your face.

Just listen to Jiang Ran whispering:

"Someone is coming, be silent."

"??"

Yan Wushuang was stunned at first, subconsciously thinking that this was Jiang Ran's excuse.

I want to relax for a moment.

But then I thought about it, in front of Jiang Ran, if he really wanted to do something whether he relaxed or not, he wouldn't be able to stop him.

He had no choice but to nod doubtfully.

Sure enough, within a moment, slight footsteps came outside Jiang Ran's room.

The next moment, a bamboo tube... was delivered.

Jiang Ran sighed, who do you think he is?
If a random person came over with a bamboo tube to fool him, would it be too disrespectful to look down on him?
However, when Mi Yan was sent into the room, Jiang Ran's eyes lit up.

However, Yan Wushuang was confused for a moment and was about to pass out.

Jiang Ran shook his hand, and a pill fell into his palm, and he stuffed it into Yan Wushuang's mouth.

Yan Wushuang was in a daze and couldn't care less about what Jiang Ran fed her. She could only swallow subconsciously. After the food entered her stomach, her mind suddenly felt clear.

His eyes suddenly widened...and he saw Jiang Ran making a silent gesture.

At this point, Yan Wushuang no longer had any doubts.

Then he gently pushed Jiang Ran's hand holding his.

Jiang Ran let go, and Yan Wushuang's hands were freed. He did not get out immediately, but shrank his body and got into the quilt.

Although her hair was long, she was petite. When she was so hidden and covered by the quilt, it was impossible to tell that there were two people in the room.

Jiang Ran pretended to be unconscious...and waited quietly.

The people who came this time were obviously more experienced than Yan Wushuang.

Although Yan Wushuang is the vice-president of Baizhen Society, he is not a professional Liangshang gentleman.

I didn't know how to wait for the drug to wear off before coming in... She came in too early.

But this time the visitor waited for a cup of tea, then opened the window and got in.

The reason why I didn't leave the door... was because I didn't want to leave any traces.

The blade scraped the door bolt, leaving numerous knife marks that could be easily seen by others.

On the contrary, this person's technique of opening the window from the outside is extremely exquisite, without any trace.

In a flash, he had already slipped in from the window.

He did not confirm Jiang Ran's status.

Instead, he just rummaged around the room.

After a while, the box was also found.

This box really looks too conspicuous...

He opened the box and found a long box inside.

He carefully took out the thing and placed it on the table nearby. Then he reached out and opened it.

Looking at one of the Guqin pieces, he thought for a moment:

“Is this true or false?
"It doesn't matter...you will know once you try it."

After finishing speaking, he closed the lid and looked back in Jiang Ran's direction:
“In a short period of time, he has become famous in the world...but after all, he is too young.

"I will spare your life tonight just because you are still useful. Otherwise... hum."

After saying these words, he carried the box on his back and went directly to the window. He raised his hand and was already out in a flash. He turned around and held down the window that was about to fall to prevent it from making any sound.

A little further and you're already on the roof.

It comes and goes without a trace, lightly and without any trace.

Little did he know that as soon as he walked away, there were already two more people on the roof.

Yan Wushuang licked her lips:

"When I used the smoke just now, was this how you used it to detoxify me? It's a good thing. Can you sell the formula?"

"Sell."

Jiang Ran said: "I want [-]%, but I didn't use this to detoxify your smoke just now."

"...Then how come you are okay?"

"The kind of smoke you used, I didn't even bother to use it to calm my nerves when I went to sleep... But this one turned out to be pretty good, but a little less interesting."

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes: "Although I am not immune to all poisons, ordinary poisons and smoke are of no use to me."

"..."

Yan Wushuang was speechless for a moment and suddenly felt a little bored.

This man's martial arts skills are obviously high enough, how come he still has such ability?
How does this leave others to live?
Just looking at the people going there, she was slightly silent:

"Who is he?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, what matters is... who is standing behind him?"

Jiang Ran smiled:
"I was a little surprised that you two came together in one place. Sure enough, there are more coincidences in reality than in the storybook...

"Let's go, Yan Huishou, would you like to come with me to explore?"

"……it is good."

Yan Wushuang did not refuse.

The Jiaowei Qin has been taken away, but Jiang Ran is still such an old god.

Apparently he already had a plan in mind.

That being the case, what does she have to fear?
The two people looked at each other, then flew up at the same time, chasing the man's traces.

But this man didn't go far. He rose and fell directly into an deserted courtyard. He opened the door and disappeared.

……

……

ps: I really didn’t get the injection today... but then I remembered that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.My parents are here and they haven’t done any work in the morning...

I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival! !

Then he shamelessly asked for a monthly pass. After all, it was the end of the month, and it was still double. If he didn’t give it, it would be a waste.

thanks~
