The villain's daily corpse collection
Chapter 41 Night Visit to Rong Mansion
That night, the master and disciple took action.
Before the action, Huo Feng got two more sets of night clothes from somewhere.
Wang Wei put on dark clothes, covered his face with a black turban, leaving only a pair of reluctant eyes exposed.
Huo Feng noticed that Wang Wei was dissatisfied with this outfit, and comforted him: "Master, please be patient. Now that we are in the mortal world, we still have to follow the rules of the mortal world. It is best not to alarm any mortals on this trip. I am worried that it will disrupt some cause and effect." His subtext is self-evident.
Wang Wei spread his hands and said, "Do the rules of the mortal world teach you to be a knight on someone else's roof in the middle of the night?"
Huo Feng was stunned: "...That's not the case."
Wang Wei came closer and asked: "Master, do you seem to be so aggressive towards mortals?"
Huo Feng felt guilty: "... maybe not."
Wang Wei grabbed Huo Feng's throat and smiled, "Since you are so worried, why don't you wait by the Naihe Bridge? If I kill someone by mistake, you can immediately revive him. If the King of Hell knew that you reduced your official duties for her, he would probably make you a city god."
Huo Feng struggled: "Ah, Master, Master is definitely not that kind of person! I was wrong!"
It is past Chou time and everyone has fallen asleep. This is the time when people sleep the deepest and it is the darkest time when you can't see your hand in front of you.
Not long after they left the house, they bumped into each other. Huo Feng took out a tinderbox and blew it up, then saw Wang Wei standing there rubbing her forehead. The sudden flash of fire that cut through the night sky made her subconsciously take a half step back.
Huo Feng thought that his previous mistake had offended Wang Wei, and he looked apologetic: "Master, are you okay? I was careless just now..." His chin was also hit hard.
"Not that weak." Wang Wei felt that he had started off badly and something big was going to happen.
There was not a single inch of light on the streets late at night, nor were there any street lights to guide you. Apart from lighting your own lamp, everyone else had to grope their way forward in the dark.
Wang hates the dark night, where she can't see anything around her, which will make her unconsciously fall into some nightmares of the past. She also refuses to use fire sticks, as anything with fire will bring bad luck to her. Especially at this stage, she needs to be careful about everything.
The night burglary allowed Wang Wei to unlock a new achievement in her life. Since she mastered the peerless power, her strategy changed from planning and layout to frontal attack and quick victory.
Now she is doing this sneaky business, sneaking around and looking miserable. Given her former status, it is a tragic downgrade!
Wang Wei relied on her spiritual sense to find the direction in the darkness. She thought to herself, "It would be strange if I didn't use magic. This little magic can't even attract Jun Zhao."
After walking for more than a hundred steps, the two of them saw the Rong Family Headquarters they had been looking for for a long time. The headquarters was located in the most prosperous street in East City. Although the market was closed, it was still so bright under the night.
The style of all the shops under the Rong family is just like the jade produced by the Rong family. To say that it is dazzling is to be restrained, and to say that it is exaggerated and bright is the consistent style. The edge of the plaque is inlaid with pyroxene of different colors. It is not valuable, but it gives people a bright feeling in terms of quality.
At this time, there were quite a few people on duty in the hall.
"The Rong family has stepped up their guard. I'm afraid someone is needed to lure those people away." Huo Feng volunteered. He was familiar with the route and could easily lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Wang Wei pulled her mask, walked around to the back of the main hall, and leaped onto one of the roofs like a weightless feather. With divine intuition, she squatted down and lifted one of the tiles, and the situation in the room became clear.
But unexpectedly, the lights in this house were still on.
someone!
"It's already the Yin hour, but he's still here. When did mortals stop sleeping?" Wang Wei continued to observe. The man was walking back and forth in the room, looking quite busy. "Huo Feng can't last too long by making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. Besides, in another hour, it will be dawn. It's not stealth at all. We must take the initiative to attack."
Wang Wei leaned closer and finally saw clearly that there was a woman who was not sleeping in the room. From the back, she was not tall, and standing next to the towering shelves, she looked even smaller. She turned her face, and under the flickering candlelight, her face was tightly covered with several marks of varying depths.
"Is this Rong Fei?" Wang was quite surprised. Rong Fei, riding a black horse, looked majestic and powerful. The man in the house looked nothing like the one she saw during the day. She recalled the appearance of Rong Fei described by Huo Feng and the passers-by, and it seemed to match.
only--
"Aren't they just a few scars? What's so ugly or terrifying about them? The mortal world also likes to spread some unfounded things." Wang Wei stared at the rumored second lady of the Rong family.
She was bent over the desk, fiddling with an abacus with one hand and recording something with the other, looking so serious. Wangwei squatted on the roof for a long time. Apart from going to other shelves to get new books, the second young lady had no intention of sleeping. Looking at the gradually whitening sky in the east, she could no longer squat.
Wang Wei moved away two or three tiles, stepped on the beams from the roof, found the spot where Miss Rong was looking for the account books on the shelf, and jumped down. Like a black cat walking in the dark night, he landed silently and hid in the darkness in an instant.
Without the heavenly feathered robe, with her current strength, even if she turned herself into mist and disappeared into the air, the mortal clothes that got in the way would accidentally betray her. She activated her spiritual awareness in a small area, magnified her five senses, and tried to find the invitation she wanted from a pile of account books and documents. But after searching through the shelves one by one, there was no clue.
"Maybe it's on her desk." Wang Wei thought to himself and began to search for clues on the desk. There were no unsent invitations on the desk, but there were a few pages of invitation distribution lists.
However, the campaign started off badly, declined in the second and exhausted in the third.
"Your Excellency is sleepless and you come to visit my humble abode. What a refined mood you have."
A soft female voice came from the direction of the table. Wang Wei narrowed his eyes. The whole room was illuminated by the newly lit candles, making it as bright as day. Miss Rong Er walked to the front of Wang Wei with a long sword and a lamp in hand.
Wang Wei had planned everything, but he never expected to be caught by a mortal.
Of course, it was no problem to get away, but her goal was not achieved. If she left now, all her efforts tonight would be in vain. She actually never worried about being discovered. Even if she was discovered, what could a mere mortal do to her?
Wang Wei stood where he was, stretched his body which had been hiding in the shadows all night, and looked down at Miss Rong Er.
"He sent you here, right? You're not the first one." Miss Rong chuckled, and the marks on her face moved. "Let me tell you clearly, the thing is not here. You've come here in vain. Not only is your master a waste, but he also likes to go to great lengths to do useless things." Her words were sharp and merciless.
There were many people in Fangqiu City who disliked Rong Fei, but the only one who dared to directly oppose him was Shi Yao, the head of the Shi family. But Wang Wei was an exception, she was just someone who had no choice but to intervene between them.
Rong Fei raised his hand and tried to use his sword to pick off Wang Wei's veil, but Wang Wei dodged.
"You dare not show up. Do you not want to be seen and forced to commit suicide? But I seem to know who you are." She looked confident. "You are the woman who stood beside him in the daytime. I guessed it right. I have been gifted in breaking jade since I was young, so breaking people is natural..."
Wang Wei pulled off his kerchief and headscarf, and said with a look of disgust: "If you had told me earlier, I would have taken it off. You fooled me. This material is really not breathable at all."
Rong Fei thought that the other party would beg for mercy or commit suicide if she saw her true face, but she never thought that she would take the initiative to expose herself. Under the veil was a gorgeous and elegant face. Although she had caught a glimpse of it in the daytime, it was even more beautiful when she looked at it up close.
"He sent a woman this time. Did he think that a woman's light figure would prevent me from detecting her? I am more sensitive to stones than ordinary people, let alone a living person. I won't kill the woman. Go back and tell him that it is not good to underestimate the enemy. You will lose."
She gently lifted Wang Wei's chin with the tip of her sword, her eyes still unable to hide her admiration: "She is so beautiful, why would such a beauty work for that man? Do you have leverage over him?"
Wang Wei did not move, because from the moment Miss Rong Er started to speak, her mind had been turning non-stop. After the story she heard from others, which was half true and half false, was confirmed, she seemed to have matched several clues.
First of all, a workaholic like Rong Fei who works all night long probably wouldn't work for a man. Wang Wei thought of the person under Chen Zhongtian, who was also so hardworking, and she didn't seem to like any man.
Secondly, there were indeed scars on Rong Fei’s face, which looked like old injuries from many years ago and were most likely related to the mining accident.
In the end, there was no evil aura on her, and she seemed full of energy. The most outrageous story didn't seem to be true.
As for the secret of the scepter, both parties have confirmed its existence and it should be hidden in the Rong Mansion. I wonder if Huo Feng will have any unexpected developments tonight.
Wang Wei walked towards Rong Fei's desk, "Stop!" Rong Fei raised his hand and raised his sword again, "What are you going to do? My sword is sharp and can hurt people."
She stopped and it seemed that she was not obeying, but was... undressing?
"What are you going to do? Why are you taking off your clothes..." Rong Fei couldn't figure out the visitor's intention, but saw that the other party was taking off clothes in her room. She was shocked to the point of being incoherent for a moment.
Wang did this just to take off his nightgown and throw it aside. The clothes underneath were pure and elegant, just like the morning breeze in early spring.
I didn't want to wear this pitch-black thing in the first place. Another key point is that I don't look like I can communicate normally with others in a nightgown.
"Miss Fei, whether you believe it or not, I am not someone sent by your husband." Wang Wei first stated his position, "I visited the Rong family headquarters late at night just to confirm one thing."
"What's the matter?"
"I've heard so many stories recently, and I'm really curious about what kind of person Miss Fei is."
"That's it?"
"that's it."
Rong Fei suddenly burst into laughter, although the smile did not reach his eyes.
"I am no different from the 'me' in the rumors. I am just as vicious, cruel, and unkind as the rumors say, and I am willing to do anything to prosper my family. You seem to be very close to him, so you should know that the power of the Shi family is now in my hands. That sickly guy is a waste. The Shi family is finished in his hands!"
She showed a disdainful expression and looked up at Wang Wei, "You don't look like an ordinary person. You should understand the natural law of the survival of the fittest."
"People who have died once should have a deeper understanding." Rong Fei said this to himself. Wang Wangwei felt that he was also trapped in it.
"In the eyes of Fangqiu people, I am a thug or a monster. In short, I am nothing special. No matter how capable Mr. Shi is, he always has to consider me before doing anything!" She is not tall and not strong, but she has a strong aura.
"Is it really so?" Wang Wei looked directly into Rong Fei's eyes that seemed to be hiding flames.
"There is no wall that is impenetrable, and no net that is impermeable. What you heard is the truth. I don't know what you really want to do, but I have answered your question." She ordered him to leave.
It is hard to describe for the moment, but Rong Fei and Shi Yao, whether it is their evaluation of each other or their self-evaluation, as well as some of the evaluations of others, seem to be consistent with their own personalities.
If no one is lying, then someone is deliberately hiding something.
"The outcome will be clear in two days. My advice to you is, if you want to survive, leave this troubled place immediately."
Wang Wei couldn't help laughing when he heard this advice.
"What are you laughing at?" Rong Fei asked puzzledly.
"I think you are right." Wang Wei chuckled, turned over and jumped out of the window. When Rong Fei went to look, she was gone.
"This is the third floor, and she just jumped down like that?" Rong Fei was a little surprised.
As the east grew bright, Fang Qiu woke up, and people took their silk nets and began a new round of water storage work.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the street, grabbed Wang Wei's arm and pulled her in.
The person who came was Huo Feng.
"I led those people to the outskirts of the city. Master, have you found the invitation?"
"The invitations have all been sent out." Wang Wei recalled the names of the five people on the list and their addresses. Huo Feng asked about the names of three of them, "Liang Yuekang, You Qi, and Jie Quansheng, how do you write their surnames?"
Wang was confused, but still wrote the character of his surname on the palm of Huo Feng's hand.
"So it's this 'Xie'. The Liang and You families are from the eight great families. It's bound to be troublesome if they are involved. Only this Xie Quansheng and the other two are not." Huo Feng explained his intention just now.
"Fortunately, we have three choices. We're going to borrow their invitations this time."
"Wait a minute, Master!" Huo Feng suddenly realized, "Did you mean to... snatch their invitation?"
Wang Wei spread his hands: "Of course, where else would the invitation come from?"
Huo Feng stammered: "Master! Can we do something more...more upright next time? After all, we are all gods..."
Wang Wei: "Do you have any other way to get a troublesome invitation in two days?"
Huo Feng: "Can we go buy..."
Wang Wei: "This invitation is very expensive, do you have money?"
Huo Feng: “…”
"Master, you have been gone for such a long time. Did you have a face-to-face negotiation with the Second Miss Rong? Is she the same as the rumors say - difficult to communicate with?" Huo Feng decided to change the subject.
Wang Wei hesitated: "It's hard to say. Her personality is somewhat similar to what is rumored. She is difficult to get along with and aggressive. She has accepted all the comments from the outside world."
She changed the subject and said, "I think she is quite interesting. I look forward to seeing her again at the All Jade Banquet."
