Yuan Fang, how do you see?

Chapter 3 Mysteries of the Night

Dragon house.

As the sky gradually darkened, Li Yuanfang hid behind a big bearded tree on the edge of the woods, staring at the Long Zhai carefully, wanting to see what was wrong in this dilapidated courtyard.Suddenly, Li Yuanfang found that in the blink of an eye, the two right guard soldiers who were on duty at the gate of the Longzhai unexpectedly fell straight on the ground.It was too late, but soon, a white shadow leaped out from behind the forest, leaped lightly, turned over and entered the Longzhai.Li Yuanfang was afraid of scaring the snake, so she didn't dare to follow her into the house rashly, so she crept out of the woods, and quietly jumped onto the roof of the main room.Gently lifted a broken tile and looked into the house.He saw the dim light in the main room, but the scene in the room still surprised him - Long Fucong Lin was still dressed in daytime, but his expression revealed a look of contempt. Just when Li Yuanfang was puzzled, a The cold light hurt his eyes, so he had to close them. When the light was weaker, Li Yuanfang opened his eyes again and found that a steel knife had been placed on Lin's jade neck. The man was the white shadow who just jumped into the Long Zhai. The white shadow was covered with a black veil, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and it was impossible to observe his expression.At this time, the voice of talking sounded in the room, and Li Yuanfang believed that it was Mrs. Lin who spoke first.

"You finally came."

"Why, did you know I was coming?" Still listening to the voice, Li Yuanfang judged that Bai Ying was a woman.

"Of course I know. Since the master left a few days ago, and the master died in a strange way in office, each of you wants my life, because I am the only one who knows, holding what you want , isn't it?"

"To be honest, I have never advocated killing people. I have had enough of the days of licking blood with knives. I even despise your cheap life. It is not worth my knife. Give me what I want, Of course I will let you live."

"Do you think I will believe you? No, it's impossible. As you once, you naturally understand your means. If I take out what you want, I will immediately end up dead in this hall , I don’t think I’m so stupid as that.”

"You are staunch, I warn you, if you continue to be so recalcitrant, don't blame my sword for not letting you go."

"Just try it, if I die, you will never get that thing." Lin said calmly.

While listening attentively, Li Yuanfang, who was squatting on the roof, was surprised to find that the knife in the white-clothed killer's hand was--exactly the same as Ruyan's willow-leaf swords.

"Yes, you're right. You can't die now. However, I'm confident that I can get what I want. Let's-will-have-a-period." The woman in white finished speaking through gritted teeth. With the last four words, I jumped up and ran away from the window.

Seeing the woman in white go away, Li Yuanfang gently covered the broken tiles, and returned to the flat ground with a light effort, ready to go back to the mansion and tell Di Renjie what he saw and heard tonight.

Di Fu.

Li Yuanfang walked slowly back to the mansion alone, and saw someone at the gate of the mansion from a distance, but when he got closer, it was Ruyan.

Ruyan also saw Li Yuanfang, stood up, patted the dust off her clothes, and greeted her: "Yuanfang, you're finally back!"

Yuan Fang smiled and joked deliberately: "What are you doing? Why are you still at the gate of the mansion at such a late hour? Could it be that you let the adults sweep you out?"

"That's not true! People are waiting for you! What a big stick!"

"Then, thank you." Yuan Fang thought for a long time, but still couldn't say "thank you".

"Yuanfang." Ruyan spoke again, "I heard my uncle talk about this case. Uncle sent you to monitor Longzhai. Did you find anything?"

"This Dragon House is very lively."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Ruyan asked curiously.

"I hid on the roof and looked into the house and found that Mrs. Lin was kidnapped by a masked woman in white. The woman put a knife on Mrs. Lin's neck, as if to coerce her to hand over something. What is even more surprising is that, The sabers in the hands of the woman in white are actually double willow-leaf sabers just like you."

"Willow Leaf Swords? Hey! Li Yuanfang! You don't doubt me, do you?" Ruyan stomped her feet anxiously.

"You! Why are you always so impatient!" Yuan Fang shook her head, and continued: "Listen to me! Although she is also a woman in white and also holds a pair of willow leaves, I know that is not You. First of all, your voice is different from hers. Secondly, your posture of holding a knife is different from hers. We martial arts practitioners all know that this posture of holding a knife is a habit formed over the years. If the voice can be deliberately , this posture of holding a knife cannot be pretended. Even if it can be pretended, it will definitely show flaws. More importantly, if you know that I specially wore white clothes and held willow leaves when I inspected the Longzhai, wouldn’t it be self-defeating? Identity? Based on the above three points, I believe that the woman in white is definitely not you."

"That's about the same!" Ruyan replied angrily.

"By the way, Ruyan," Li Yuanfang asked suddenly, "other than you, who else would use these willow-leaf swords?"

"Well, let me think about it." Ruyan thought for a moment and said, "The willow-leaf double swords are for the female snake heads in the snake spirit. Besides me, the only female snake heads in the snake spirit are Xiaomei and Xiaomei. Sister Feng, you know, they are blood spirits, but, they are already dead!"

"Then what's going on? Are there any of them still alive?" Li Yuanfang quickly had such an idea in his mind, but somehow it was rejected again. Seeing that he couldn't think of anything tonight, I could only sigh and said to Ruyan: "Ruyan, it's the second watch, you should go back to bed early!"

"Are you caring about me?"

"That's it... that's it!"

"Thank you!" Ruyan was about to leave, but turned around quickly, leaving a faint rouge mark on Li Yuanfang's left cheek with lightning speed, and then went back to the room full of joy.

"Hey! This Ruyan!" Li Yuanfang touched the traces of being kissed on his face, and shook his head helplessly.

Pengshan Cloud Valley.

It's time for the third watch.

There are several altars of fire burning in the deep depression of the canyon, but they can't cover up the desolation and chill around them.The dark black continuous mountain is as steep as a blade, which makes people's hearts tighten.The two largest fire altars stand on both sides of a well-carved bronze flower chair. On the flower chair sits a majestic woman in white clothes. She has a flowery face, but no expression at all. One can't help but wonder if she is alive.

When everything was silent, another woman in white clothes flashed out from the right side of Yungu, stepped forward quickly, bowed to the woman on the throne, and said: "Master, I'm back."

"Ying'er, how is the mission going this time?" the expressionless woman called the Hall Master opened her mouth slowly.

"Well, I acted flawlessly, without revealing any flaws, sister Sister Xiu is a bit confused by Monk Zhang Er."

"What about the rest?"

"Sure enough, as the hall master expected, someone was indeed following him tonight, but my younger sister couldn't be sure who he was, but after he left, my younger sister followed him and saw him enter a luxurious mansion, and wrote a letter to "Di Mansion" , and talked to a woman for a while."

"It must be Li Yuanfang and Su Xian'er. It seems that Di Renjie has already started to act. Okay, Ying'er, you go down first."

"Then, Hall Master, where is Sister Sleeve?"

The hall master slowly stretched out his right hand and made a "kill" movement on his neck.

"Master, this..."

"Do as I say. I, Baiyitang, cannot tolerate this traitor alive. If I hadn't kept her in this scene, I would have sent her to see the King of Hades long ago. By the way, don't forget, the next Let Luoer assign a task."

"Yes, little sister obeys."

day.

Di Fu.

The rooster crowed and dawn broke, and the sky had already revealed a fish-belly white, with a slight blush, which was truly gratifying.Ruyan stayed up all night, seeing that it was already dawn, she got up and went to the main room.

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang were already having breakfast, and when he saw Ruyan's eyes were slightly black, Di Renjie laughed: "Hehe, Ruyan, it's not enough, I was so excited when I came back from Bingzhou to see Yuanfang." Can't even sleep?"

"Uncle, Yuan Fang told you about what happened last night. I think I've been thinking about it all night." Ru Yan said angrily.

"Yeah, I heard from Yuan Fang that a woman in white with willow-leaf swords went to kidnap Mrs. Lin, which reminded me of Snake Spirit. But it's been almost five years since the case of Snake Spirit was closed. What's more, I can't figure out what details I overlooked back then." Needless to say, the expression on Di Renjie's face already showed his inner confusion.

"Uncle, my little girl suddenly thought of someone this morning."

"Who? Tell me!" Li Yuanfang asked impatiently before Di Renjie could answer.

"Her name is Bai Lingshuang."

"Bai Lingshuang, Lingshuang, Lingshuang." Di Renjie chewed on the name repeatedly, and then asked, "Ruyan, is this Bai Lingshuang the head of a snake?"

"Uncle, you know that I am the fifth-ranked killer spirit in the snake spirit. But what you don't know is that there is another spirit before me."

"It's Bai Lingshuang, right?"

"That's right. I heard from my elder sister that Bai Lingshuang and her only younger brother belonged to the snake spirit. Her younger brother failed in his mission and was killed by the elder sister. Bai Lingshuang hated her and finally defected. However, before I became the head of the snake, No subordinates were punished by the elder sister to death, so I doubted the authenticity of the elder sister's statement at the time, but I gradually forgot about it later. This Bai Lingshuang wore white clothes and held willow leaves to commit murder. Wearing white clothes and holding willow leaves is just following her tradition."

"Master!" Di Chun hurriedly came from the outer courtyard, shouting as he walked, "Master, your letter!"

"Letter? Who gave it to me?" Di Renjie asked.

"A woman, who claims to be surnamed Lin, told me to hand over the letter to you, Master."

"Alright Di Chun, I understand, you go down first!"

"Yes, master!" Di Chun withdrew.

No one noticed that a white shadow jumped onto the eaves of Di's mansion.

"My lord, this must have been written to you by Mrs. Long Lin." Li Yuanfang said.

"Well, it should be like this. She must know something hidden." Di Renjie tore open the envelope, and a thin piece of rice paper slipped to the ground. Ruyan picked it up lightly, and read: "

The Jinjiang River is clear and rippling,

The jade box and green dots fall on the straw mat.

lingering in the spring flowers,

The heart is in the beautiful scenery and away from the world.

The red peaches on the Jia'an are competing for purple,

The green willows next door are rare.

Dongting mist wave Ling Hong Ji,

The fishing fire in the middle of Shu reflects the coir raincoat. "

Seeing that Ruyan closed her mouth and didn't speak for a moment, Li Yuanfang became anxious: "Ruyan, is it just such a poem?"

Ruyan responded, "It's just a poem, if you don't believe me, read it for yourself?"

Li Yuanfang glanced at the letter paper, and asked: "This Lin family is really weird. He wrote a spring poem and sent it here. What exactly do you want to explain? My lord, what do you think?"

Di Renjie didn't seem to hear what Li Yuanfang said, and sat there, muttering to himself: "

Pingjiang Liling is thousands of mountains heavy,

The swan geese return to the south in a different way.

Say goodbye to you and wait for the solar terms,

I would like to invite you to dream in Xianfu.

The universe has its own thunder,

In the depths of the haze, ghosts and gods worry.

A generation of heroes and loyal officers,

It's ridiculous that Zhuge praises it. "
