I Became an Anonymous Boss
Page 32
It was only later that Shirataki found out that the owner of this courtyard had committed suicide under this apricot tree, and resentment had seeped into the roots, surrounded by blood, and it was either polluted by resentment and blood, or it was cut off from life, but this apricot tree not only did not die, but instead Swallowing the resentment into harmless aura, it completely dispelled the resentment of more than 30 years, forcibly preventing the ghost from turning into a ghost, and preventing the disaster from further expanding.
Although the birth of spiritual wisdom has not been completed, it is not in vain to be called a spiritual tree.
Shirataki didn't intend to cut it down, instead he raised it, pruned branches, and sprayed it with insecticide.
He has been out for a long time, and he likes this courtyard quite a lot, but because it is a haunted house, there is no one around, and there is no neighbor to look after the house on his behalf.
Keeping a pet to look after the house requires demolition workers to take care of it, so this apricot tree is more suitable to stay here. Even if it doesn’t come back for a long time, it can still live, and it can even send itself away when it is well cared for.
Just as Bai Taki stepped into the courtyard with half a foot, there was a salsa sound from the apricot tree, the branches swayed, and a layer of fragrance filled the air.
The fragrance of aura is also the fragrance of apricot blossom.
Shirataki walked up to the apricot tree, seeing the ropes tied one after another on the trunk, with more than a dozen various objects hanging from it, he couldn't help feeling nostalgic.
Ever since Shirataki hung a psychic jade that he got by hand on its branch, every time he got some props that he thought were useless, he would hang them on it.
Over time, various objects have been hung here.
For example, psychic gems, such as green wood amulets, such as Luoshui river stones.
The psychic gem can make people conceive and nourish spiritual wisdom, but it has too little effect on the human race who is the primate of all things;
The green wood talisman is originally used to promote the growth of plants. It is not easy to sell this thing to anyone, so why should it be hung on a vegetative person;
The Luoshui river stone is a stone originally used to suppress the water level, and it is only one of hundreds of stones. It is soaked in the power of water, which can make the water vapor sink, enrich the earth, and nourish the water veins of a land.
Although they are all good things, they are of little use to Shirataki, and he doesn't know who to sell them to... and they also look the same as ordinary items, and they can't be sold at a high price, so I keep them for myself and give them to Xing The tree is hung.
Bai Taki sat down on the stone bench beside the apricot tree, rested his cheeks, looked at the apricot tree and sighed.
"It's almost half a month."
"After tossing around, I finally came back."
"This is a gift for you. I forgot last time, but I brought it this time."
Shirataki picked up a bottle of fruit wine from his backpack, he couldn't afford too good wine, but he could still buy ordinary wine.
The brewing technology of modern civilization is naturally more advanced than in the past, and the varieties are also varied.
This old apricot tree has no other hobbies except drinking.
Ever since Shirataki accidentally knocked over half of the altar of Millennium Fire Wine, he discovered that it is really good.
Moreover, it is not very picky about the taste, and it is not a must-have wine. Ordinary Huadiao wine can also be drunk, and snowflakes and Tsingtao beer are also popular.
So Shirataki would bring a bottle of wine to irrigate the soil every once in a while.
Shirataki poured himself half a glass of fruit wine, and sprinkled the rest on the soil under the tree.
Pick up the cup and drink with a tree with a pleasant and relaxed attitude.
Different from the modern society that needs to hide his identity, in another world, he doesn't need to hide or be restrained, he can laugh whenever he wants, even if the madman is drunk.
While talking about the troubles of these days, he talked and laughed, and confided many trivial things through the strength of alcohol.
Whether the apricot tree shakes the branch or not, Bai Taki can roughly understand its response, and there are only two answers.
Shaking a branch means yes, blowing a breeze means no.
We talked like this for a long time, until the moonlight was getting late, and a watchman passed by beating a gong.
Shirataki stopped complaining, yawned, and put the backpack under his body.
Because the house hadn't been cleaned for half a month, it was probably full of dust, so he planned to stay and sleep under the jujube tree all night.
It is full of aura here, and the sleep may not be as solid as in the room.
"Help me adjust the temperature, don't be too cold."
Shirataki reminded Xingshu, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The apricot tree shakes its branches slowly, breathing under the moonlight, the silver light is slightly dimmed, but quietly, flower bones have grown on the branches, and the apricot blossoms in the blooming period are delicate and beautiful, and the flowers are beautiful. Spring breeze, but as time goes by, the apricot blossoms will gradually turn from thick to light, from bright to pure white, and before they fall, they will be completely white and flawless.
The apricot blossoms are just blooming, and the fragrance of the flowers is light. The purer the flowers, the lighter and clearer the fragrance.
This area of neighborhoods and alleys that no one approached has been covered with a fragrant fragrance, which is refreshing, but little known.
……
In the early morning, the morning dew waits for the sun to shine.
A woman in a white coat arrived in front of Jinling City.
The clothes were stained with dew, and the shoes were muddy. She had no luggage in her hand, but she was carrying a sword.
The exquisite facial features are still a little immature, but those eyes are full of coldness and arrogance.
"Jinling..."
Lan Xiangxue looked at the huge ancient seal on the tower with a little sadness in her eyes.
Along the way, he wasted some time in order to avoid the pursuit of the eagle dogs in Xueyilou.
She traveled almost day and night, and finally arrived at Jinling.
After two days, I don't know if the young master is okay or where he is now.
She didn't dare to ask why the young master left without saying goodbye, but she really wanted to see him, and hoped to be by his side often.
Lan Xiangxue gently pressed her chest, this letter was the only way for her to find the young master.
The address pointed to on the envelope was Jinling Yanyun Mansion.
Yanyun Mansion, once a wealthy marquis family, but because the previous generation's patriarch was a dead glass, the family fell into ruin, and the only blood left was a woman, but because the woman could not inherit the title, she had to choose a collateral line to marry.
Afterwards, the original wife died of illness, and the family property fell into the hands of a 13-year-old girl, so Yanyun Mansion was in chaos for six years.
This eldest lady is indeed a capable person. Although she could not inherit the title, she stubbornly guarded the family business and abandoned the army to go into business. Instead, she occupied a place in Jinling's business circle.
About half a year ago, there was also a mission in this mansion in the Bloody Clothes Building. The goal was to assassinate the only direct descendant in Yanyun Mansion. In the end, the Bloody Clothes Building gave up this mission because the assassin organization that accepted the mission at that time exceeded three.
In addition to the Bloody Clothes Building, there are also Bloodthirsty League, Brave Village, etc... Too many assassins took action, which made the situation complicated, and the Bloody Clothes Building finally gave up.
As it turns out, this was the right choice, too.
From the moment they stepped into Yanyun Mansion, this group of people had already been marked for death.
On the night when the assassination mission was carried out, all seventeen assassins died suddenly, including the two geniuses, all of whom died strangely and suddenly.
And things didn't end there.
Half a month later, Bulaozhuang was removed from the rivers and lakes, and six bases were uprooted.
As a result of this incident, the Pricking Blood League has disappeared until now, and no longer dare to accept any business.
Xueyilou took the opportunity to expand its influence, and then it was itself...
Let's not mention this matter.
Lan Xiangxue didn't know the relationship between Young Master and Yanyun Mansion.
But if the person behind Yanyun Mansion is the young master, it would make sense.
Compared with the son, the assassin organization that deals in human lives is not worth mentioning at all.
Chapter 36 Yanyun Mansion
God knows, in Lan Xiangxue's heart, what kind of height Bai Taki has been raised to.
Even Lan Xiangxue would not think it enough to judge Mo Shangren Ruyu, a peerless master who is unparalleled in the world.
In the eyes of others... no, in Bai Taki's own eyes, he was just helping Lan Xiangxue a little.
Give her a cup of hot water, painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs, plus a cup of eight-treasure porridge, lend her a sword, and teach her a sword technique.
Just a little favor.
Ordinary people in the rivers and lakes will not help, either because they are powerless, or they cannot protect themselves.
Shirataki is a kind person, willing to do good deeds, doing good deeds on weekdays, making money with kindness, no big deal.
But the thinking of ancient people is different from the thinking of modern people.
Lan Xiangxue's enterprise-level understanding is too advanced, and her way of thinking has gradually developed in an irreversible direction.
When the sun rises, the mist clears in the morning.
Lan Xiangxue stopped, and in front of her was the main entrance of Yanyun Mansion.
The gate of the mansion is a bit quaint but still full of momentum, with carved railings and painted buildings, and rich locks.
The former Marquis, in Jinling, can also be regarded as a wealthy family, a century-old family, once it rises and falls.
The former Lan Xiangxue would never stop here, she was a killer who could not live in the sun, she rarely thought about and understood these wealthy families, because in most cases, once she noticed someone, the other party would become her sword Down the dead soul.
In the past, I would not have the mood of this moment, because I had nothing in the past, and people who had nothing in the past do not need to be afraid of losing anything.
But now, instead, she felt a little uneasy because she was worried about being rejected.
Lan Xiangxue still chose to go forward, she knocked on the door, and the sound of knocking spread.
After a while, the door was opened, and a taciturn tall man walked out. He was huge, like a little giant, with a scary appearance, powerful, but a bit dull.
Lan Xiangxue showed no signs of fear, and said calmly: "I'm here to see the eldest lady of Yanyun Mansion."
The tall man touched the back of his head, looked at it with some embarrassment, opened his mouth, but didn't speak.
At this time, a maid came to rescue him. The delicate-looking girl in a goose-yellow skirt looked only sixteen or seventeen years old.
She came to the door and asked softly, "Excuse me, what can I do?"
Lan Xiangxue took out the envelope in her arms: "I'm here to deliver the letter."
The maid blinked, looked at the white envelope, and stretched out her hand naturally: "Then you bring the letter, and I will present it to my lady."
Lan Xiangxue's face changed slightly, she shook her head and said, "May I meet your eldest lady?"
"My lady, I've been a plain girl all my life, and the eldest miss won't easily meet an outsider. The letter in your hand is not authentic, and the girl's identity is not yet known." The maid's eyes showed a little bit of sharpness and scrutiny. Zhise: "It's unreasonable for a girl to walk around the rivers and lakes at such an age... to send letters here in the early morning and insist on seeing my young lady."
Lan Xiangxue knew that her request was a little too much, but she had to hold this letter in her hand to feel safe. She didn't check the contents, and there might be clues to find the young master.
She also knew why the maid was so vigilant, because it was less than half a year since the assassination, and everyone would be vigilant, once bitten by a snake for ten years, they would be afraid of well ropes.
It's just that what Xiangxue doesn't understand is why she feels the danger from a little maid. She can see that this maid's cultivation base is not congenital, but when the maid circulates her true energy, it gives people a sense of danger. The extraordinarily sharp illusion, as if there were blades hidden in the eyes...
