A+ A- Turn Off Light

The main hall of the Purple Moon Villa was named [Yue Mountain Hall].

Tonight’s dinner party would have been arranged here.

The large tables had all been set up, just waiting for the crowd to take their seats so that the food could be served.

However, nowadays, it was obvious that the food could not be served.

Wild Dog Taoist’s body was hanging in front of Yue Shan Tang’s door.

The body is fragmented, hanging only half, the rest are limbs and broken arms, scattered everywhere was thrown everywhere.

There was a note hanging on the corpse.

Written in blood, the five words [Residual Sun Sect respect].

Not only was it obvious, but it was rampant.

Meng Xiu’s face skin trembled as he watched this scene already in a rage.

And at this moment, surrounding the surroundings, there were not only people from the Purple Moon Villa, the two grandparents and grandchildren of Dugu Xiong, as well as the Noble Duke and Chu Yuniang, Shang Qianhu, were all at the side.

Lin Lian Yi opened the folding fan in her hand and made a gesture to cover her mouth and nose.

At this moment, she stood up and looked at Meng Xiu:

“Steward Meng, this is not right.”

Meng Xiu, as the Grand Steward of Purple Moon Villa, was still able to keep his composure in the end:

“What does Third Miss Lin have to say?”

“People aren’t dying in this place.”

Lin Wan Yi said:

“The shape of the blood spatter is not right …… If it died here, it wouldn’t be like this, a mass on this side and a mass on that side ……

“When the body breaks apart, it sprays out.

“He should have been killed somewhere else and then the body carried over and hung here.

“But in that case, that’s a problem.”

“Indeed.”

Chu Yuniang also nodded as she sniffed:

“Today’s dinner is located here, if someone carries the body over and hangs it in front of the hall …… these servants, boys, how can they not see it?

“How can he be so godless and unaware?”

Meng Xiu sniffed violently looked at the presence of the boy servant:

“You guys, have you seen anyone?”

His eyes were stern, he had accumulated power for many years, and at this time, he opened his voice and drank, scaring all the subordinates around him with a jolt.

Immediately have kneeled down:

“We …… we didn’t see anything.”

“Yes, steward spare your life. We are only here to set up …… the effort to turn around, and then turn back, this person is hanging on it.”

Jiang Ran sniffed and raised his eyebrows slightly:

“A turn of effort? What did you turn around to do?”

“Back to your guest, I just turned around to set up the wine cups and organize the chopsticks and spoons and other utensils, then turned back, and this corpse appeared.”

When this person said this, his face was vaguely white, as if he thought of that moment of fear, his body was still vaguely shaking a little.

This is normal …… Although Purple Moon Villa is a martial arts family, not all disciples know martial arts.

These subordinates are mostly ordinary people, originally working to do a good job, a turn around and suddenly saw a mutilated body, this shock is absolutely non-trivial.

“So it seems ……”

Dugu Xiong at this time coldly opened his mouth:

“Either this little boy lying, is that they secretly conspired to murder the wild dog Taoist, between each other, mutual perjury.

“Either …… Xuanji then appeared in this neighborhood.

“Steward Meng, Purple Moon Villa’s Yue Mountain Hall can have any organs and dark passages that are not known to others?”

When Meng Xiu heard this, his face was even more somber:

“Elder Dugu don’t believe in nonsense, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with my Purple Moon Villa!

“What’s more, we have no grudges against this Wild Dog Daoist, so how could we add insult to injury?”

These words seemed like an answer, but everyone present was not a fool and understood why Meng Xiu would say these words.

After all, these two articles brought up by Dugu Xiong were all aimed at Purple Moon Villa.

The first article said that it was these subordinates who had taken action, in other words, there wasn’t any difference between it and the Purple Moon Villa’s action.

The second article also said that this Yue Shan Hall has organs and dark passage …… But the question is, how can this Purple Moon Villa’s organs and dark passage be known by others?

If this thing is Purple Moon Villa’s people do, it is also good …… But if it really is the residual sun door use Purple Moon Villa’s dark road to act.

Then between the Purple Moon Villa and the Remnant Sun Sect, what kind of relationship is it in the end?

What makes the Remnant Sun door able to know the Purple Moon Villa’s secret passage?

There was still the matter of the Qin family before, and Meng Huan’s claim of illness still didn’t have a reasonable explanation.

Now that this kind of thing had happened again, if Meng Xiu recognized this, Purple Moon Villa would only lose its trust in the jianghu.

Therefore, Meng Xiu couldn’t even be bothered to talk about the matter of the dark path and directly stated his position.

Dugu Xiong laughed dryly and gently waved his hand:

“Steward Meng shouldn’t be anxious, old man doesn’t mean this.”

“I still ask the old man to be clear.”

Meng Xiu took a deep breath, knowing that in a verbal battle here, he would only be unable to distinguish a result, so he said:

“The Remnant Sun Sect’s eastern window has been broken, and we don’t yet know exactly how this matter was done.

“However, the wild dog Taoist after all died in the Purple Moon Villa, this matter, we will certainly give a statement.

“I will repair a letter, with people to send to the Great Cold Gang, please the Great Cold Gang master personally visit, to the wild dog Taoist master.”

Only when his words reached this point, he gave a slight start:

“But if someone wants to use this to cause trouble and frame …… others, my Purple Moon Villa is by no means a good bully.”

“Are these words directed at our Jiang Warrior?”

Noble Duke opened his voice with a laugh at this time:

“After all, we all know that amongst those who have some disagreements with the Wild Dog Taoist, there is only Great Warrior Jiang present.

“Steward Meng’s words just now were somewhat meaningful.”

Meng Huan froze and subconsciously glanced at Jiang Ran:

“In no way did I intend that.”

“Of course.”

Jiang Ran smiled, “Moreover, if I wanted to kill this person, there was no need to frame the Remnant Sun Sect.”

“That’s exactly the point.”

Meng Xiu nodded repeatedly, “I’m just sorry gentlemen, I’m afraid there’s no way to continue the dinner tonight. Later on, I will have someone send the food to all of you’s rooms …… then please, all of you, within your rooms, dine on your own.”

When the words came to this point, it was almost time.

Jiang Ran and the others didn’t have any intention of continuing to stay here, so they turned around and left.

Lin Evening Yi didn’t know when, but had been following behind Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran took two steps and looked back at her.

“Great warrior Jiang.”

Lin Evening Yi clasped her fists and arched her hands.

Jiang Ran mused for a moment:

“What do you think, what’s going on here?”

“I feel that the matter lies in the Purple Moon Villa ……

“The points of coincidence, they’re getting more and more numerous.

“The Remnant Sun Sect had just gone east when Meng Huan claimed to be sick and didn’t come out.

“Wild Dog Daoist’s death was strange, and if it wasn’t someone from Purple Moon Villa, it doesn’t make sense that he could have made it this far.

“Either of these two still have a saying, both together …… Purple Moon Villa must not be innocent.”

Lin Evening Yi opened his mouth with a straight face.

Jiang Ran smiled:

“Then you think, what is the reason?”

“…… I don’t know.”

Lin Evening Yi shook her head.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment and said:

“It is, perhaps, somewhat related to the Wild Dog Daoist’s Heavenly Great Fortune.”

“Heavenly Great Fortune?”

Lin Evening Yi was slightly stunned.

Jiang Ran, however, waved his hand:

“As an aside, it may not be right …… And, without evidence, you can’t accuse people indiscriminately.

“But Purple Moon Villa is getting more and more uneasy, you should be careful too.”

“Yes.”

Lin Lian Yi sniffed, and a joyful color immediately appeared on her face.

Jiang Ran, however, had already stepped up his pace.

This coming and going, the original still hangs in the sky on the evening sun, also each dissipate, the Chinese lights Jiang Ran and others each in the room with a meal.

Just this evening Purple Moon Villa is destined to not be peaceful.

Everywhere is the sound of people, footsteps, talking talking, running around.

Jiang Ran listened to this commotion until the latter part of the night before it subsided a little.

So after a while, Jiang Ran turned out the lights, then lying on the bed quietly looking at the ceiling.

Time lost, suddenly a section of bamboo tube into the window, a few moments later, wisps of smoke into the room.

Jiang Ran lifted his nose and sniffed, smacked his lips and rolled over.

After waiting for a few moments, he heard a creaking sound.

The door bolt was pried open a little bit with a small knife, followed by a robust figure drilled into the room.

After closing the door of the room smoothly, he looked towards Jiang Ran.

After coming to the front and checking slightly to make sure that he was thoroughly asleep, he began to rummage around the room.

Just as this person found a chest in the corner, he heard Jiang Ran’s voice come:

“Head of the Yan Assembly doesn’t do anything as the head of a good assembly, why did he learn from Ximen Feng and run into someone else’s room and become a gentleman on the beam?

“Moreover, this is still in the Purple Moon Villa.

“The head of the Hundred Treasures Society’s Grand Assembly sneaking in and stealing things, if this gets out, do you still want to be a human being?”

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

Sighing softly, she took out the fire folders from her bosom and opened them, exhaling and blowing, lighting the lampstand.

“Then what are you going to do?”

Casually pulling off the black cloth on her face, Yan Wushuang showed her true face:

“Yell and scream and make it known to everyone?”

“What if it’s really like that?”

Jiang Ran asked with a smile as he leaned against the bed.

Yan Wushuang thought for a moment and said:

“I’m a woman ……”

Jiang Ran froze, “And then?”

“I consider myself to be quite good looking.”

“Yan Wushuang, naturally, has peerless looks.”

Jiang Ran expressed his approval.

“What hour is it now?”

“It’s the ugly hour.”

Jiang Ran said, “Just the right 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 gets out, people will think I’m here to be a thief or to steal?”

Yan Wushuang slowly arrived in front of Jiang Ran:

“I’ve heard that there’s some unclear relationship between you and the Red Maple Villa’s Miss Ye.

“If these words reach her ears, what will she think?”

“She would only be concerned about why you ran to my room to be a thief.”

Jiang Ran laughed dumbly, “I just didn’t expect that Yan will head around for half a day and just say such a small thing. The cleaner the clearer, the more turbid the more turbid, this kind of words used to fool the innocent teenager is okay, but to me it does not work.

“After all, really spread out, I a big man and what can care?”

“…… Whether you believe it or not, I came here, not to steal things.”

Yan Wushuang spoke with a straight face:

“Ximen Feng said that you made a fake Jiao Tail Qin.”

“And then?”

“That zither, it was made before Sunset Ping.”

“Say what you have to say once and for all.”

“Ximen Feng’s craftsmanship, even someone like me would look away. Therefore, the scorched tail on Sunset Ping that was taken away by Man Sheng Ming is a fake ……

“The real Jiao Tail Qin has always been in your hands!

“I came here just to confirm this matter …… As long as it is confirmed that this qin is still in your hands, then the subsequent things, we can talk slowly.”

Yan Wushuang laughed:

“This zither is actually a not-so-small trouble for you, isn’t it?”

Jiang Ran looked at her and didn’t speak.

Yan Wushuang didn’t speak either.

The four eyes looked at each other, each speechless.

The eyes, however, were all as flat as water, without the slightest exchange of sparks.

Just then, Jiang Ran suddenly let out a long breath, and the firelight suddenly went out.

In the next moment, black shadows unfolded, directly enveloping Yan Wushuang.

Yan Wushuang was taken aback, she didn’t expect that Jiang Ran didn’t shout or continue to talk to her, instead, he directly made a move.

Her martial arts skills were far inferior to Jiang Ran’s, so how could she react at this moment?

When she came back to her senses, her hands had already been held by Jiang Ran in one place, followed by the feeling that her waist was tightened, and her whole body was embraced in Jiang Ran’s arms.

See his feet change, hula, two people turned into a ball, directly to the bed above.

Jiang Ran smoothly lifted up a corner of the bedding and casually raised his hand, the two people rolled into the bedding at the same time, and only then did the bedding fall.

Yan Wushuang only remembered at this moment that she still had her mouth open, so she could shout with force.

But Jiang Ran had obviously thought of this as well.

So he reached out and covered Yan Wushuang’s mouth, so that not a single word of her voice could come out.

She could only look at him with wide eyes, her face full of incredulity.

Just then he heard Jiang Ran whisper:

“Someone is coming, be silent.”

“??”

Yan Wushuang first froze, subconsciously thinking that this was Jiang Ran’s pretext.

Wanting to exchange himself for a moment of relief.

But on second thought, in front of Jiang Ran, if he really wants to do something, he can’t stop himself.

So he could only nod his head with confidence.

Sure enough, but a moment, there is a slight footsteps to Jiang Ran room outside.

The next moment, a bamboo tube …… was sent in.

Jiang Ran sighed, this is all treat him as what kind of person?

A random person coming over with a bamboo tube to fool around, not too much to look down on him?

However, after the mesmerizing smoke was sent into the room, Jiang Ran’s eyes lit up.

On the contrary, Yan Wushuang was instantly dazed and confused, and the whole person was about to pass out.

Jiang Ran shook his hand, and a pill fell into his palm, which he smoothly stuffed into Yan Wushuang’s mouth.

Yan Wushuang was in a daze and couldn’t care less about what Jiang Ran was feeding her, she could only swallow subconsciously, and after the thing entered her stomach, she instantly felt her mind clearing up instantly.

Suddenly, her eyes …… widened and she saw Jiang Ran make a gesture to silence her.

Up to this point, Yan Wushuang no longer had the slightest doubt.

Then she gently pushed Jiang Ran’s hand that was gripping her.

Jiang Ran smoothly loosened, Yan Wushuang’s hands were able to free, but did not immediately get out, but her body shape shrank, burrowed into the bedding.

Although she has long hair, but her body is petite, so once she drills, the bedding is covered, it is impossible to see that there are actually two people in this room.

Jiang Ran then made a gesture of unconsciousness …… and waited quietly.

The person who came this time is obviously much more experienced than Yan Wushuang.

Although Yan Wushuang is the deputy head of the Hundred Treasures Society, in the end, he is not a professional beamer.

I don t know to wait for the ecstasy to send out its effect before coming in …… She came in too early.

And this time the person who came waited for a full tea before pushing open the window and drilling in from the window.

The reason why he did not go through the door …… was that he did not want to leave traces.

Razor blade scraping bolt, leaving tired knife marks, the onlooker can see at a glance.

On the contrary, this person opened the window from the outside, superb to the extreme, without half a trace.

With a sway of his body, he had already drilled through the window.

He didn’t bother to confirm Jiang Ran’s state.

Instead, he went straight to rummage around the room.

A few moments later, the chest was also found.

This chest really looked too conspicuous ……

He opened the chest, but inside was a long box.

Taking this thing out carefully and placing it on a side table, he then reached out and opened it.

Looking at an ancient zither in the center, he pondered faintly:

“Is this real or fake?

“There is no harm …… in trying it.”

After saying that, he closed the lid and turned back to look at Jiang Ran’s direction again:

“Within a short period of time, you have already become famous …… but you are ultimately too young.

“Tonight to leave you alive, only because, you are still useful, otherwise …… hum.”

After these words, he will carry that box, directly came to the window, a raised hand, the figure of a shake has gone out, turn around and press the window that is about to fall, do not let it make half a sound.

A little more under the feet, has reached the roof.

He came without a sound, went without a shadow, floating lightly, without a trace.

Unbeknownst to him, just as he walked away, there were already two more people on the roof.

Yan Wushuang licked his lips:

“When I used the smoke just now, is this what you used to cure the poison? It’s not bad, is the formula for sale?”

“Sell.”

Jiang Ran said, “I want 60%, but I didn’t use this to detoxify your ecstasy just now.”

“…… Then how can you be okay?”

“On the kind of maze smoke you use, I used to sleep are too lazy to use it to tranquilize the mind …… but later this is not bad, but also worse meaning.”

Jiang Ran rolled his eyes, “Although I can’t be regarded as invulnerable to all poisons, but the unusual poisonous mists and smokes, they don’t have the slightest use for me.”

“……”

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

This person obviously had high enough martial arts skills, how could he still have such skills?

How should this let other people live?

Just looking at the person going, she was slightly silent:

“What kind of person is he?”

“It’s not important what he is, what’s important is …… what’s standing behind him?”

Jiang Ran smiled:

“The two of you rushing to come in one place is a bit of a surprise to me as well, it’s true that there are more coincidences in reality than in the words ……

“Let’s go, would head of the Yan Club be willing to follow me for a visit?”

“…… Good.”

Yan Wushuang didn’t refuse.

The Jiao Tail Qin had been taken away, and Jiang Ran was still this old-fashioned.

Obviously there was already a plan in his mind.

In that case, what did she have to fear?

The two of them exchanged a glance, and then flew up at the same time, chasing after that person’s trail.

But this person has not gone far, the figure of two up and down, directly drilled into an unoccupied courtyard, pushed the door in, the figure disappeared.
