The life of a martial arts escort from Longmen

Chapter 75
She patted Lu Sanjin on the shoulder and pulled him behind her.

Lu Sanjin is in a fog now, and he doesn't know what's going on.

Li Nan stared at the warrior in black.

When he passed in front of Li Nan, there was a bloody smell that couldn't be concealed.

It wasn't until he went to the guest room on the second floor that he looked at his back suspiciously.

Li Nan remembered that he came from the opposite street, not from the direction of Weng's Mansion.

So it shouldn't be him.

But thinking of how he left the house with a murderous look last night, Li Nan hesitated.

At this time, Uncle Gong came from the direction of the hut, and Li Nan greeted him.

"Brother Nan, you came back very quickly, did you find anything?"

Li Nan took out a Willow Leaf Flying Knife from his arms.

"Uncle Gong, look at which sect's hidden weapon this is."

Uncle Gong took it, rubbed his bearded chin, and fell into thought.

He looked at it carefully for a while, shook his head and said helplessly: "This kind of flying knife seems to be a bit old, I don't know, but..."

Li Nan was slumped at first, a little disappointed, and heard Uncle Gong draw a long tone and then asked: "But what?"

Hearing this, Uncle Gong took out a few pages from his bosom.

"Let's take a look, the head of the family entrusted me to buy information from Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng, eight generations of ancestors have checked it out for him."

"There seems to be information about this flying knife on it."

Li Nan was taken aback for a moment, and grinned.

Obediently still have this kind of operation?

Open the paper.

On the first day of June, night, heavy rain.

More than [-] people in the Weng Mansion died. Since there were no signs of fighting at the scene, the possibility of suicide could not be ruled out.

The killer may:

It is said that the patriarch of the Weng family killed his eldest brother more than ten years ago and succeeded in usurping the throne, but his son Weng Haisheng escaped.

The Weng family competes with the Rongduo family in Phoenix City in terms of business, and they have been fighting openly and secretly all year round, such as their prospective in-laws, the Zhao family.

.........

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng's speculations, Li Nan was speechless for a while.

The Weng family has been a big family for a hundred years, and they have made many enemies during this period, which is really hard to find.

But what is worthy of affirmation is that the real answer is [-]% likely to be on the paper in Li Nan's hands.

Li Nan thought of the healing elixir rewarded by Mr. System, and regained his motivation.

People are forced out.

After reading it carefully, I saw the Zhao family's unique hidden weapon in the past—the blood-falling flying knife.

However, the Zhao Mansion has not used this thing for a long time since it started business.

So he wanted to ask Zhao Guo if he recognized the flying knife.

After speaking, Li Nan walked downstairs.

Zhao Guo is a very good drinker. He has been drinking since noon until now, and he hasn't fallen down yet.

But now is the best time.

Passing by the four guards, Li Nan handed the flying knife directly to Zhao Guo.

Li Nan saw a trace of astonishment flash across his face, which was almost invisible.

There was an answer in his heart, he knew this thing.

"Master Zhao, do you recognize this flying knife?"

Zhao Guo took a look in his hand, shook his head, and said in a slightly vague tone: "I don't know, what's wrong?"

Li Nan sat directly in front of him,
He whispered: "I saw it in the Weng Mansion, so..."

Zhao Guo's cultivation of Qi was still not enough, Li Nan saw a trace of anger rising in his eyes.

Not long after, Zhao Guo smiled stiffly, and brushed his wide sleeves over the wine table, without any trace of drunkenness.

"Brother Sanjin, if I have something to do at home, I'll go back first."

Lu Sanjin was really drunk, and watched Zhao Guo leave with his tongue out.

Li Nan fell into deep thought, who exactly wanted to make the brothers of the Zhao family kill each other?

Li Nan just now knew that the Zhao family had four children from "Guotai Min'an", but he didn't know about the illegitimate children.

The fourth child, Zhao An, is studying abroad.

The youngest, Zhao Min, and Zhao Bancheng, the master of the Zhao family, went to the West to do business together.

Only Zhao Guo and Zhao Tai are in the house, and their relationship is not very good, they look down on each other.

Li Nan has not been in the world for nothing for so long. Naturally, it can be seen that this is deliberately provoked by others.

But since this thing has appeared, Li Nan might as well push the boat along.

Anyway, Zhao Tai is not a good guy.

Li Nan has inquired, this guy is a proper bully, whores, rapes women and so on.

In other words, his father pays enough money to drink tea as a filial piety to the palace every year, otherwise he would have burped early.

In the next few days, something unexpected happened to Li Nan, and nothing happened.

Later, the government also said that the murderer had been found, and Qiu Hou asked to kill him.

But I don't know if it's true or not.

Since that day, I haven't seen Zhao Guo.

Lu Sanjin was a little worried about his friend's safety, so he asked Li Nan to send a greeting note.

Early this morning, Lu Sanjin and the others packed up and prepared to go to the Zhao Mansion.

In the past few days, Li Nan's injury has not improved for a long time, so he can only stabilize it to prevent it from getting worse.

The three of them saw the magnificent building from a distance, which was even more luxurious than Li Nan imagined.

It is also worthy of the name of Zhao Bancheng, the self-made patriarch of the Zhao family!
Before knocking on the door, a servant welcomed Lu Sanjin and the three of them in.

Lu Sanjin's expression was very calm. After all, he was born in a wealthy family, and this kind of scene was a small one.

Along the way, he made seven turns and eight turns, passed several yards, and finally saw Zhao Guo.

After only a few days of not seeing each other, Zhao Guo felt as if he had been sucked dry, his complexion was even worse than Li Nan's, and he looked overly indulgent.

From the back room came out a few handsome maidservants in their twenties and eighty-year-olds, and poured tea for them.

Zhao Guo coughed twice and waved his hands.

A dozen servants left the room and closed the door behind them.

Lu Sanjin cut to the chase, and asked directly: "Brother Zhao, why haven't you been out these few days? Is it true that the case of the Weng family is related to your Zhao family as the rumors say?"

Zhao Guo drank a cup of tea and said with a wry smile: "These days I stayed behind closed doors, but after returning home that day, I contracted a cold illness. It's not like the rumors outside, Brother Sanjin is worrying too much."

Li Nan always felt something was wrong in his heart.

But everyone has explained it, and it's not easy for an outsider like myself to ask more questions.

At this moment, the wooden door that was suddenly closed was kicked open.

"Brother, I'm out of money, hurry up and give me some money."

Then I saw a man in his twenties, with a decent appearance and a very arrogant expression walking in.

"Cough, cough, cough! Whoever let you in, get out of here."

"Uncle Wang."

Zhao Guo covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.

Outside the door, an old man with gray hair and divine light in his eyes came in.

Hurry up to Zhao Guoshun.

"Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master insists on coming in, let's stop him."

Several servants knelt on the ground, trembling.

Zhao Guo sighed.

"Uncle Wang, give him 1000 taels."

"Master, oh~"

The old man named Uncle Wang hesitated and reluctantly took out a stack of banknotes from his arms.

"Brother, is it just 1000 taels that you send for food?"

"Get out!" Zhao Guo couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly.

Zhao Tai is also a naughty person, he glanced at the people present, and left here as soon as he rolled his eyes.

Zhao Guo raised his brows and said, "I'm sorry everyone, I made you laugh."

Lu Sanjin gave up again and again to ease the atmosphere and let each other step down.

Li Nan felt strange, this Zhao Tai's behavior did not look like someone who would pose a threat to Zhao Guo.
