Fairy Citrus

Chapter 27

It was Mr. Yu Bi and Bai Yu who shouted.

"You—" the porter looked at the women and girls who came out of Mr. Yu's room, and asked worriedly, "Have you told Mr. Yu?"

"What can we do? We can't hide such a big thing from happening, can we?" said the sharp-faced woman, rolling her eyes, "We just want to inform the young master, Mr. Pei can't point it out, He has to know what he wants in the future, and our subordinates also make arrangements in advance."

"Shouldn't it be okay to wait until Wuhoutang's investigation is clear? You people, it's really adding to the chaos, alas!" The porter sighed heavily.

"Oh." The sharp-faced woman rolled her eyes and left with a group of girls.

This interaction exposed the current situation of the Yu family: there is no such thing as the core or pillar here.When Mr. Pei is around, the servants may obey him obediently.Now that something happened to Pei's mansion, apart from the down-to-earth porter, all the servants in Yu's mansion have disobeyed.And Mr. Yu is avoiding the reality, and doesn't want to care about them at all.

The porter watched the sharp-faced woman go away, sighed again, and said to the three of He Chengqi, "Please go this way."

"Young Master." When we reached the door of the Young Master's room, the gatekeeper called out.

"Let's go! Can't you understand?!" The young master yelled loudly.

"My lord, Mr. He from Hexinju is here. You took care of me yesterday and asked me to receive him." The porter patiently explained.

"Hexinju." Mr. Yu repeated.

He stopped yelling.

But because he stopped shouting, certain tones and breaths in his words were also revealed.

It was a cry, a cry mixed with slight sobbing.

After a while, the exquisitely carved door was pushed open from the inside.

Mr. Yu is dressed in white and wears a jade crown on his head, which gives people a sense of smallness.The so-called sense of compactness does not mean that Mr. Yu is very short.His bones are thinner, so overall, he is very exquisite and soft.

In fact, many young masters who have been pampered and lack of exercise all year round have grown up like this.

Young Master Yu walked directly in front of He Chengqi.At first glance, he recognized this person as Mr. He from He Xinju.This is also inevitable, among the three people who came to visit, only He Chengqi was wearing brocade clothes.

Young Master Yu's reddish eyes looked at the tall and deep man for a long time.

During this period, He Chengqi watched Young Master Yu calmly.

Mo Fang, on the other hand, looked the boy up and down.

Mo Mian can be sure that this young man's martial arts are not very good, not even as good as his best students.

The boy's hands were clean and delicate.He Chengqi's hands are also clean and delicate, even better shaped than this child's hands, but He Chengqi's hands are powerful.Powerful and beautiful.This child is not the case, his hands are too white and too unhealthy, but the joints are filled with blood.

Suddenly, the unhealthy boy let out a roar.

"Ah!" This growl was a bit pitiful. Although the voice probably used up all of Mr. Yu's strength, it still sounded like he lacked confidence.

After the roar, the teenager's emotions did not ease.He seemed even angrier.He suddenly raised his right arm and overturned the big box held by the shop attendant, the fairy stones and fairy grass seedlings in it rolled down to the ground.

"Don't think that with a polite expression, I don't know what you think of me!" The boy shouted, then turned around, opened the door, and was about to lock himself up again.

"Master, you care so much about our evaluation?" He Chengqi asked, "I'm different from you, I only care about my business."

"Now I don't need these things anymore!" Young Master Yu turned around and said angrily.

"But I was invited to the mansion to do business with the young master. Now the goods I brought have been damaged by the young master. I can neither do business with the young master nor use them to do business with others."

"Okay!" Young Master Yu waved his hand, "Don't you just want me to compensate——"

"No, I want to stay a little longer and visit your garden." He Chengqi said.

Except for Mo Fang, everyone present was dumbfounded by his condition.

After a long while, Mr. Yu made an impatient expression again.

"Okay, just be careful, just don't get dirty." After saying this, he slammed the door and went back into the room.

"Here, Mr. He, I'm really sorry... I never thought that such a thing would happen... Sigh." When the concierge apologized to He Chengqi, Mo Fang had already walked towards the painted walls.

Not long after, He Chengqi also followed.

"I know this musician. She used to perform in the restaurant where I was the cook, and she was very popular." Mo Fang pointed to a person painted on the wall and said.

"So you know her too? Now she is one of the best musicians in the main city, and there is her performance every two days in the Xijian Band." He Chengqi said.

"I see. I don't quite recognize the others."

"This girl is also in the same band. As for that beautiful young man, she is a dancer who can dance swords into willows supporting the wind." He Chengqi introduced those characters to Mo Fang one by one, "Then Wei Youlian's play is very good, last year I took Tian Qianmo and the others to watch many shows... Ah, speaking of it, I am the boss who is very popular with these beautiful young people."

"Yeah, a boss like you—" Mo Fang rubbed his chin and squinted his eyes, "Why do you suddenly feel that my position as Mrs. Yazhai is in danger?"

"So, you're jealous?" He Chengqi approached him and smiled.

"Jealous."

They talked and laughed, their foreheads moved closer together.

Seeing them teasing each other, the store's servants didn't want to disturb them.The porter found that the servant had nothing to do, so he invited him to have dessert with him.

When Mo Fang and He Chengqi watched the carvings on the wall and the pictures in the pool, they certainly didn't forget to check the layout of the garden.In fact, this is the main purpose of their stay here.

There are many hidden formations here.These arrays are invisible in themselves.But with Mo Fang and He Chengqi's cultivation, he could feel their aura.

These formations are the anti-theft formations mentioned by the concierge.They are similar to the maze on the door, driven by the token holder, and can attack people.

This attack is not enough to kill, but it can basically restrain ordinary thieves and robbers, making them unable to move.

"The concierge said that before the servants in Pei's residence shouted this morning, the anti-theft array had some abnormal reactions." He Chengqi said, holding the handle of the mother-child knife at his waist, closing his eyes and feeling.

Suddenly, the handle of the dagger trembled.

Seeing this, Mo Fang immediately congealed an ice knife in his hand.He focused his attention on comprehension, but Xiaodao didn't respond much.

He Chengqi tried it again with the Zimu Saber, but the response from the Zimu Saber disappeared.

"This is intriguing." He Chengqi said.

But soon, his and Mo Fang's gazes returned to the portraits painted on the wall.This is because Young Master Yu came out.

"Do you recognize these people?" The little boy walked up to them and asked.

Then, without waiting for them to answer, the young master gave his own answer: "Well, this is also natural. You do business, you need to entertain. When entertaining, you can't avoid drinking, listening to music, watching dances, and watching theaters. But , musicians, dancers, and actresses are the background for you, and they exist like objects. When you finish drinking, listening, enjoying, and watching, you will leave them aside. You will not feel that they , apart from pleasing you, what is the value of survival. You even take the vicious rumors about them as the talk after dinner. And people like me—people who have real feelings about music, dance, and opera like me, in From your point of view, it’s nothing more than playing with things and losing one’s mind, isn’t it?”

"I said before that I only care about business." He Chengqi said, "As for what it means to play with things and lose one's ambition, I don't know. If you can benefit yourself and benefit others in business, you are my good partner."

"Would you do business with them?"

"Of course." He Chengqi nodded and said with a smile, "This dancer named Axia once wanted to embed cheap and harmless luminous objects on her clothes. He Xinju helped her realize this wish. Later, she promoted this kind of dance dress to her companions, and now it is very popular among dancers. Almost all the Yeming dance dresses you see come from my shop.

"As for this musician, A Rong, he often suffers from shoulder discomfort due to too much performance schedule and lack of exercise. He Xinju was entrusted by him to develop a nursing ointment for musicians and all kinds of music practitioners. There are many, many more, if you don’t believe me, you can go and investigate. The lifeblood of He Xinju is in the hands of ordinary guest officials. Dancers, musicians, and actors are also within the ordinary guest officials.”

He Chengqi finished speaking unhurriedly.

The little boy listened to him, and finally turned his gaze elsewhere.He looked farther than those paintings.

"Probably everyone thinks that I have no conscience at all..." After a while, the young master said slowly, "Everyone is saying—"

"Oh?"

"It is said that I am arguing with ancestor Pei every day. The things I promised him are all visible to the naked eye...but..." Tears welled up in the eyes of the little boy again, "I don't want him to have an accident! I never ...I didn't think that way. I...I only hope, I only hope that he can see me vetoing him!"

"I don't know what everyone is talking about." He Chengqi patted him on the shoulder, "Many people died in Pei's mansion garden this morning. But as far as we know so far, there is no corpse of Mr. Pei among them .If you want to veto him, you may not have a chance.”

At this time, the sound of knocking on the door came.

The ones who came were Wuhou hall master and a group of hall servants.

Seeing He Chengqi and Mo Fang, Long Qiuzong nodded slightly, without showing any surprise.

"Your Excellency is the only person we can find who is related to Mr. Pei." Long Qiuzong said to Mr. Yu, "So, we want to explain the current investigation results to you. And in order to find out the truth, we will also I need to ask you some questions."

Today, Mr. Yu has calmed down a lot. Although there are still tears on his face, his voice is obviously calm: "I understand, please come to the main room and sit down to talk."

So the group went to the hall.

Longqiu Zong described the current investigation results:

The dead bodies they found in Pei's mansion included several distant relatives taken in by Pei Bifeng, and many servants who stayed in the mansion yesterday.

Pei Bifeng's saber is still in the residence.According to what the people in Sword Lord City knew about him, it was unlikely that he would go out without a sword.But now he is neither among the dead nor in any part of the mansion.

There was no sign of forced entry into Pei's residence.They have not yet discovered that anyone in the neighborhood has the ability to create this tragedy.

As for that maid, his martial arts skills are extremely low, let alone be able to do this.

According to the autopsy results, these people all died shortly before the servant started screaming.

Death happens at the same time as they are sucked together.It seemed that it was only a moment, and they didn't even have room to scream.

They all died of stab wounds.However, these knife wounds are not external injuries, they are internal injuries.

There seemed to be various invisible knives growing out of the body of the deceased, mother-in-law knives, knives with ice slag, etc. - Speaking of which, Long Qiuzong looked at He Chengqi.

But He Chengqi remained calm.
