MTL - Strange Worlds: The Sequence-Chapter 130 black hands
Chapter 130 Black Hand
Chen Yuyan originally thought that after the matter was settled, Qi Yunjue's injury had almost recovered, so he was going to take Qi Yunjue to the Sanqin Province.
I didn't expect the accident to happen so quickly.
But Chen Yuyan was not in a hurry, Qi Yunjue was so badly injured, even if the doctor at Qingyao Villa could cure her illness and rejuvenate her, she would still have to lie down for about seven or eight days.
These days are enough for him to cut through the mess quickly and help Qingyao Villa solve this mess.
Nothing more.
He wants to get a little reward.
Walking out of the courtyard, Chen Yuyan saw several guards performing light kung fu, running for their lives in the direction of the screams.
He pretended to be puzzled, with a puzzled look on his face, his eyebrows furrowed, and he stopped two maidservants who were dripping with sweat and their faces were as white as paper, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"
The maid on the left, I don't know if she was too nervous and scared, her teeth were chattering non-stop, and she couldn't speak a whole word.
The other servant girl stammered and told the news just now.
"The new bride, the new bride... she no, disappeared..."
For this wedding, Qingyao Villa has never paid more attention to it.
After all, it is the wedding of the owner of the young villa, and it is also related to the joint affairs of Qingyao Villa and Zhuo Xuejiao, two major martial arts sects.
The small building where the bride Xue Shaoyao lives has not been occupied for a long time before, and this time it was cleaned out specially for her.
Not only because of the quiet environment here, strange rocks and clear pools, but also because it is extremely easy to defend.
This place is not far from the martial arts training ground in the villa. The warehouse is on the east side, and the north road leads directly to the upward stone steps. As long as one person stands on the turning platform on the steps, he can have a panoramic view of the surroundings of Xiaozhu.
Except for two old trees blocking the windows to protect the privacy of the house, no matter what happens, they will not escape the guards on the platform.
Although the south side has no advantages or disadvantages in terms of terrain, it is the direction directly leading to the gate of the villa, and the disciple guards who come and go on inspections all have to pass by this way.
Not to mention that near the small courtyard, there is still a Da Keqing with unfathomable martial arts.
"Old Man with Dry Vine", Taoist White Crucian Carp.
Even Li Shanqing, who is already the master of Shenyi, the most powerful owner of the Li family, can only barely draw with the white crucian carp.
It can be said that such a guard is extremely strict, let alone being attacked and robbing the bride, even if the people in the courtyard want to go out quietly, it is difficult to fly.
If anyone wants to quietly steal a living bride from such a place, it would be easier to secretly cut off the heads of the three brothers of the Li family.
So no one expected this kind of thing to happen.
But it just happened.
Chen Yuyan walked halfway, and saw a flag fire rising into the sky, dragging out a long thick red smoke.
It is conceivable that the masters of the Li family, who were already waiting for the wedding banquet to start, would be in a panic after seeing this emergency signal.
When he arrived at the scene of the incident, the three circles around him were already full of people.
Relying on the advantage of her height, Chen Yuyan stood on tiptoe and looked in, only to find that there was a broken door latch on the ground inside the threshold.
Looking inside the door, the door of the inner room is also half open, the altar table in the main room fell to the ground, and the chair next to it was split in half from the middle.
The people of the Li family stood at the door, not far from Chen Yuyan, enough to see their ugly faces, silent, and fell into a dead silence between each other, as if they had fallen to freezing point in an instant.
The room where the bride temporarily lived was in a mess, the sheets and bedding were all torn, scattered all over the floor, and there were also two sword marks on the bed that pierced through the board.
The wooden box containing the personal dowry was cut off by a sword, and the jewelry inside was turned into a mess, scattered all over the table, and fell everywhere.
On the diagonally split screen, the bride's inner and outer clothes were still hanging, and the apron was crumpled and fell to the ground. After a closer look, the shoes and socks were kicked to the bottom of the bed, and even the hairpin on the head fell on the pillow. side.
The missing Xue Shaoyao was taken away after being stripped naked.
Whether it is Qingyao Villa or the people of Zhuo Xue Sect, they all understand what this means.
The person who did this has trampled on the face of Xuezhuo Sect and Qingyao Villa.
If this matter is not handled properly, the two of them will never even think about raising their heads in Longyou Wulin.
Everyone in the yard looked very solemn, and some foolish men only realized this after they knew about it. This is not a joke, nor is it a nightmare.
The bride of the Li family in Qingyao Villa.
Really like that, overnight.
disappeared.
At this moment, there are already panicked eyes looking back and forth among the crowd. This villa is located in the middle of the mountain, and the surroundings are heavily guarded. Compared with lurking outside and waiting for an opportunity to strike, it is the most likely way to sneak into the villa in advance.
Sure enough, the owner Li Shanqing who hurried over whispered a few instructions to the people around him, and then called seven or eight stewards of the villa, not shying away from the fact that many people were on the spot, and said loudly:
"Li Cong, go and get the list of all the guests who left to watch the ceremony, Li Xing, go and wake up all the guests, gather at the training ground, check the number of people, check it out for me, and see who is missing."
After finishing speaking, Li Shanqing turned to look at the audience, clasped his fists and said: "I'm sorry, everyone, now that such a big event happened in Qingyao Villa, I have to trouble you to stay here for a while and help us find out the truth. If you delay your important matters , Li will do his best to make up for it afterwards. Everyone, go to the training ground first."
The old **** Chen Yuyan was there, and followed the crowd to the martial arts field. It was still daytime, and it was not time for him to act.
Martial arts field.
All the guests have gathered together.
However, after the people from the Li family finished counting, there was nothing wrong with the gangsters staying in the villa.
Everything that should be there is there.
One is not more, one is not less.
Instead, it was a group of fighters from the Senluo faction standing at the front, smiling brightly.
They also knew in their hearts that after such an incident, the marriage between Qingyao Villa and Zhuo Xuejiao was completely broken.
This matter is for the Sunluo faction.
Happy to hear and see.
As for being suspected, they are not afraid.
It wasn’t something that they Senluo faction did at all, they acted upright and sat upright, and followed the people from Qingyao Villa to investigate.
At this time, Li Shanqing rushed in with a livid complexion, reluctantly bowed his hands to everyone in the field, and then went straight to Li Shanxiang's side, and the two walked to the corner, talking in a low voice.
The speaker of Qingyao Villa.
There are actually three.
In addition to Li Shanqing, the owner of the estate, there are Li Shanxiang, the second master of the Li family who is in charge of purchasing medicinal materials, and Li Shanming, the third master of the Li family who is in charge of selling medicines and pills.
The one standing next to Li Shanqing was Li Song, the young owner of Qingyao Villa and the groom of this wedding.
He stood on the spot, his face seemed to be covered with an invisible mask, showing no emotion.
But compare your heart with your heart, no one will be happy when you lose your new wife when you get married.
The charming young woman who came behind was the third elder of the Burning Snow Sect, "Bing Xuelian" Mrs. Bing. At this moment, her complexion was ugly, so dark that she could almost drip ink.
Seeing that there were no results from the inventory here, Mrs. Bing's face gradually showed anger, and she said coldly: "Master Li, I hope your Qingyao Villa can give everyone an explanation as soon as possible."
Li Shanqing looked embarrassed, so he had to cup his hands and said: "Please rest assured, I, Qingyao Villa, will definitely give you an explanation."
"We try our best to find someone." Mrs. Bing snorted coldly and walked away.
Although it is not clear how Xue Shaoyao is now, the sheets and quilts were all cut, and the bride's apron and trousers were scattered all over the floor, but everyone has seen it. How, is self-evident.
Whether the person finds it or not, this marriage contract is probably a foregone conclusion.
The relationship between Zhuo Xuejiao and Qingyao Villa has become complicated and confusing.
Probably because he didn't want to lose his composure in front of the group of heroes, Li Shanqing stepped forward, cupped his hands and reluctantly said: "You can go back to your room to rest, if there is anything that needs your help, we will notify you, please don't act rashly these few days Walking around, meals and so on, naturally someone will serve them on time. I have offended you so much, please forgive me."
Even if everyone felt displeased, no one would forcefully say that they would leave to make a mess at this time. Anyway, few of those who stayed overnight had important things to do, and most of them were happy to wait and see the development of the situation.
Following the flow of people back into the room, the wing room that the Li family arranged for Chen Yuyan was next door to Qi Yunjie.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Chen Yuyan closed her eyes and meditated, thinking to herself.
The matter of Qingyao Mountain Villa is not difficult to say, and it is not easy to say. What he knows so far is that the bride ran away by herself.
That's right, it wasn't being robbed.
But ran by himself.
Probably because she was dissatisfied with the sect forcibly arranging a marriage for her, or for other reasons, but it doesn't matter now.
The bride ran away and ran away, and she is now useless.
The point is that this incident is the fuse that detonated the internal conflicts in the Li family.
Xue Shaoyao has only just been on location, so how could it escape in the hands of the white crucian carp Taoist?
You know, the latter is the master of divine will.
Then there is only one possibility left.
It was the white crucian carp Taoist who let the snow peony go.
Why did the white crucian carp Taoist let Xue Shaoyao go? Or, which one of the three brothers of the Li family did he take orders from?
This is what Chen Yuyan wants to figure out.
The Li family members are all suspected.
Whoever it is.
…
The cold moonlight shone down on the earth, it was so gloomy, but the stars of the Milky Way became more and more brilliant.
In the dense and boundless jungle, the croaking of frogs echoes one after the other, and the grasshopper occasionally adds a few chirping sounds, the chrysanthemum is like blowing tomato intermittently, and the willows hang quietly by the roadside. Branches and shadows cover the winding path of wild grass.
"If you want me to say, this **** must have been done by the Sun Luo faction, what do you think, big brother?"
"Where are we brainless fools able to figure out what's going on in the rivers and lakes? Oh, forget it, let the people in Qingyao Villa have a headache, and we brothers have to go down the mountain to ask for a living."
"Brother said yes."
On the narrow and difficult mountain road, a few strong men walked down from top to bottom, wearing bunts and turbans on their foreheads, chatting while walking.
They are the leaders of the Cao Gang, a third-rate gang on the nearby river Heihe. They originally just went up the mountain to congratulate the marriage between Qingyao Villa and Zhuo Xuejiao, but they didn't expect this to happen.
But the Cao Gang can’t be without a leader. If they are locked up on Yanzhi Peak for ten days and half a month, it’s hard to say whether the gang is still there when they go back.
So after being investigated and found no suspects, they asked Li Shanqing to resign, hoping that Qingyao Villa would let them go down the mountain.
Qingyao Villa is also embarrassed to refuse, after all, if they really want to be strong to keep them, the territory of Cao Gang will be taken away by others, and it is not good to spread the word.
So after confirming that they had nothing to do with this matter, the Li family let them go.
But it was just quietly, without attracting the attention of other guests.
Otherwise, everyone will clamor to leave, which will make it very difficult for Qingyao Villa.
Suddenly, a gust of cool wind came.
Several people stopped, staring closely at the black figure in front of them.
"I don't know what's important for you?"
The big leader of the Cao Gang spoke cautiously, with a cautious expression on his face, his right hand was tightly grasping the handle of the axe, ready to strike at any time.
Sombra didn't speak.
Instead, he took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand.
After a while.
The dark wind blew, and there were a few more dead bodies on the ground.
"No one, no one can get out of Qingyao Villa..."
"You all must die!"
The black shadow walked past the corpse, and a hoarse voice came out of the mouth, wandering in the night.
No one knows, behind a tree trunk less than half a foot away, a pair of dark eyes are well hidden under the moonlight.
Watching the shadow go away, the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Sure enough, the Li family did it themselves."
Using all his strength to activate Daxuan Guixi Zhending Gong, hiding his breath, Chen Yuyan felt the wind under his feet, and walked back to Qingyao Villa by another road.
"Fun, so much fun."
…
The next day.
Qingyao Villa, martial arts arena.
People who have not personally experienced the ashes and smoke disperse often do not know how terrible this poison is, but those who have really experienced it are often unable to speak again.
Only the unspeakable pain that remains on the face of the withered and yellow corpse conveys to the viewers the last bitter despair of their lives.
As the poison of the Qingyao Villa, it has always been the Li family's invincible weapon in the diplomatic war.
Scatter with the wind, touch it and your whole body will fester, smell it and your soul will fly away.
Even if it is the master of Shenyi, if he does not attach his internal force to the body surface, it will be difficult to solve the trick.
The congratulatory guest who was thinking about leaving as before, all his thoughts turned into cold sweat, and his whole body was covered with sweat.
The place where the dead were found was near the foot of the mountain. The disciples patrolling the mountain saw their strange death, so they dared not move them rashly.
In less than half a stick of incense, the body was surrounded by people.
People from the Li family arrived early, Li Yan squatted down, put on suede gloves, and carefully examined the corpse.
Although she is a woman, Li Yan is the most skilled person in the younger generation of the Li family.
"These people don't have a deep relationship with Qingyao Villa, they just have some friendship."
Li Shanqing leaned over to look at those corpses, and said in a deep voice: "Because of this, I feel relieved to let them go, even if the opponent has a deep hatred with our Li family, I wouldn't attack them.
"How did you know...the situation would develop to this point."
Li Shanxiang's eyes were bloodshot, and he said slowly: "I sent them out of the gate last night. At that time, no one followed them. We patrolled all night and found no one leaving behind."
"The ashes disappeared, it must be our Li family who did it."
"Out of the direct descendants of the Li family, who else knows the formula for disappearing ashes?"
Li Shanming shook his head and said:
"Since it is likely that our own people did it, they must know the surrounding terrain like the back of the palm of their hands. If we dig out from anywhere, there will be ashes scattered in our hands. It is really not difficult to intercept and kill these people."
"So, who the hell?"
Li Shanqing's eyes were bloodshot, he raised his head, staring at his two brothers.
"I know that both of you have complaints against me, but now this incident has hurt the foundation of the villa, are you still unwilling to stop?"
"I really want to destroy the villa..."
"Are you all willing!"
