Abduct a shadow guard to investigate the case

"A total of five guests came in just now, and three of them looked a bit strange." Xuan Qi stared downstairs for a while, then turned to Shen Yao and said.

"Go on." Shen Yao nodded slightly.In order to prevent the partition wall from having ears, the two played their voices relatively softly.

"When these three people came in, their steps were impatient, their spirits were listless, and they kept yawning, urging the servants to serve the food and wine, but after drinking the wine, they soon calmed down. The effect of addiction, it will be very uncomfortable if you don’t drink for a period of time.”

"Okay, Xuan Qi, what you said is good." Shen Yao put one hand on the table, and looked at Xuan Qi sideways with his chin resting on his chin. The man's sharp profile and serious expression made him very attractive.

Shen Yao said, "Actually, when I went to the village a few days ago, I hired a carriage in Luanqing Town. At that time, the coachman mentioned that he had come to 'Lexianlou' to play, and he was listless, yawning, Runny nose, and..." As he spoke, he paused for a while, trying to keep it a secret.

"What else?" Xuan Qi looked at him and asked, and found that he was looking at him, his eyes were bright and moving, Xuan Qi felt his face was hot again, and quickly looked away.

Shen Yao saw it, turned his mouth up, and continued, "Also, his pupils narrowed unnaturally. It was a rainy day, and there was no dazzling light at all. The pupils narrowed just happened to be a symptom of some drug addiction. Listen to it today Neighbors who went to Liu Zhao’s house said that recently, many men always go to Lexianlou to play as if they were possessed. It will make people can't help but keep coming here to relieve their addiction. Sure enough, the easiest place to drug is this drink."

"Xuan Qi just identified the medicine in the drink, and felt that the ingredients were complicated, not the addictive medicine like poppy shell that is often said in the market. How capable is this Le Xianlou, how did it get this medicine? "Xuan Qi asked.

"If it's something like poppy shells, the government controls it very strictly. Le Xianlou provides so much wine to guests every day. If there is an obvious transaction, it is easy for the government to find out. I am thinking that this may be related to some other things. Get up." Shen Yao squeezed his chin and said, "Shi Bozhong reported to the Wulin League that the body of a suspected magic soldier was found in the river on Luanqing Mountain, but the body was washed down the waterfall. In fact, after a few days, Wulin Meng received an informant through the relationship between the government."

"What is it?"

"In a village below Luanqing Town, some villagers found some broken limbs and broken arms by the river. The skin was black, the muscles were developed, and the tendons were bulging, which was consistent with Shi Bozhong's report on the corpse of the demon soldier. Therefore, the Martial Arts League confirmed that Accept this case application. And I happened to have just completed a case not far from Yuling County, so I was assigned to accept this case.

Next is the drug that was tried on the mice last time. These things are all related to refining drugs.I once wanted to find the source of the corpse of the magic soldier through the water vein map in Luanqing Mountain, but the water vein here is complicated, and the river where the corpse was found traces back to its source, and there are many forks. It takes a lot of manpower and time to investigate. So he decided to go to the villa to find Shi Bozhong to see if there were any further clues.

And if the medicine from Lexianlou, which happened to appear recently, has something to do with the mastermind behind the whole incident, we might be one step closer to the answer. "

"Then let's go to the owner of Lexian Tower and ask for clarification." Xuan Qi's expression turned cold.

"En." Shen Yao nodded, and got up together with him and walked downstairs.

At this time, the boy who had just run downstairs had finished whispering with the madam, and the two came to the backyard.

A few thugs in Lexian Building were sitting idle in the yard chatting.

The madam walked up to the leader and whispered a few words. The man had an obvious scar on his face, and even if he didn't make an expression, he looked ferocious. He listened to what the madam said, rolled his eyes, smiled sideways, and said something "Don't worry," he called everyone in the courtyard together.

"Hey, where's the third child?" He glanced at everyone and asked.

One person replied, "Tiddled with the group of spiders he raised in the house."

Scarface frowned, and said, "Go and call him over, there are people who meddle in their own business, brothers and sisters, go and relax them."

"Yes!"

Here, Shen Yao and Xuan Qi were about to go downstairs, when they heard the drumbeat on the high stage on the first floor suddenly became loud and excited, and saw all the dancing girls scattered away, a beautiful woman in red came to the stage alone, stepped on the stage She turned gracefully to the beat of the drum, with two long ribbons wrapped around her arms, drawing a gorgeous arc in the air as she spun, and everyone in the audience stopped their glasses, cheering and looking forward to the stage.

The woman in red turned around for a while, then stopped, her chest rose and fell, and she breathed calmly.Another madam came up on the stage and handed her a hydrangea. The madam smiled and said to the audience, "Tonight's hydrangea throwing show is about to start again, and this time our 'Furong' girl will appear. If you grab the hydrangea, you will have the priority to spend a good night with Furong tonight."

Before he finished speaking, everyone in the audience booed and applauded, most of them were urging Furong to throw the ball quickly.

Shen Yao and Xuan Qi went down to the first floor, looked around, and found the entrance to the backyard.

The boy and the madam who tipped off the news returned to the front hall, and fixed their eyes on the two of them.

The thugs were waiting behind the curtain in the backyard.

Furong swayed the hydrangea ball in front of her body, causing everyone to stretch their necks to look left and right. Then, she raised her hand and threw the hydrangea ball to the audience.

For a while, the drums on the stage were beating rapidly, and the audience was in a mess. You jumped and jumped, and the hydrangea was snatched by people.

Suddenly someone patted it vigorously, and the hydrangea suddenly bounced towards the stairs, heading towards Shen Yao.

Shen Yao subconsciously raised his hand to catch the oncoming thing, and the next moment, he held the hydrangea firmly in his palm.

Shouts, sighs, and hecklings rang out everywhere, and Shen Yao instantly caught everyone's attention.

"..." Shen Yao looked at Xuan Qi in embarrassment.

"..." Xuan Qi blinked and turned his head slightly sideways.

The boy and the madam exchanged glances, and ran to the backyard.

Furong looked at Shen Yao who had received the hydrangea, smiled and said, "Young master, if you don't mind, please go upstairs in the backyard and have a talk." While speaking, there was no smell of dust, but a bit of a daughter-like look. Shy.

The madam who was with the servant just now came to Shen Yao's side, she shook her veil and said, "My lord, this Furong is the most famous girl in the building after the oiran, young and gentle, my lord, let's go to the backyard with my servant." As he said that, he went to pull Shen Yao.

Shen Yao raised his eyebrows and said, "So, I'm really lucky."

Xuan Qi looked at him, he winked at Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi understood, and followed the madam with him.

The bustard suddenly said, "My lord, the rules of this game are that only the person who has received the hydrangea ball can climb up the building, and two people cannot climb up together, otherwise, the girl's family will not be able to bear it." .

"..." Xuan Qi frowned slightly, looking at Shen Yao.

Shen Yao blinked at him, shook his head calmly, and said to the madam, "So, you have to greet my friend well."

"Oh, of course, it doesn't matter if this son wants to continue drinking or order girls." The madam looked at Xuan Qi and said.

"Drink." Xuan Qi said.

"Okay, you go back to the private seat just now, and I will ask the girl to accompany you again."

Shen Yao and the madam walked into the backyard. There were arches on several walls of the backyard, which could lead to other yards.

The madam led Shen Yao through an arched door, and said, "Furong's small building is right here, she should have gone back to make preparations."

Shen Yao walked through the arch, his eyes swept to the bushes on both sides.

Walking to the center of the courtyard, I heard the madam say, "Young Master, please stay here later, and I will go and see if Fu Rong is ready."

Shen Yao nodded, and the madam quickly walked towards the small building in front.

Shen Yao looked forward and remained calm.

At this moment, a gust of wind hit from the back of the head, the corners of Shen Yao's mouth twitched slightly, he turned around and swung his arms, caught the coming stick, pressed down, raised his legs and kicked.The person who wielded the stick had no time to let go of the stick, and was brought to Shen Yao's feet. He was kicked hard in the abdomen, and immediately fell to the ground screaming.

"Grab him!" With a loud cry, seven or eight strong men sprang out from behind the bushes on both sides, some with maces, some with meteor hammers, and some with eyebrow-level sticks, surrounding Shen Yao in the middle.

Shen Yao glanced at the group of people, seeing that most of them were mobs dominated by brute force, and said, "I didn't expect your master to send a few of you out. Let's go together."

"You're looking for death!" A scarred face spat, and they all rushed towards Shen Yao.

Shen Yao stepped down a little, and flew up, his clothes fluttered, and his feet stepped on everyone's weapons, and he turned around in the air, only to hear the sound of bang and clatter, everyone's hands went numb, and several people's weapons were dead. Let go and land.

With a hook of Shen Yao's toe, an eyebrow-level stick bounced from the ground, and he took it into his hand. He swung it twice in front of him, swishing the stick, and swept his eyes around everyone.

Everyone felt their palms sweating, and they knew that this person in front of them was not easy to provoke. They looked at Scarface and waited for his order.

At this moment, Shen Yao suddenly felt a burr crawling on the back of his hand. He was startled, and looked down, only to see a spider the size of a baby's fist had crawled up his eyebrow stick. the back of the hand.

The spider's body is mainly gray, with some yellow and black patterns on its body and legs.Shen Yao felt dizzy suddenly, the spider's body and eight tentacles magnified infinitely before his eyes, intertwined, overlapped and spread with previous fears, his goosebumps appeared quickly, and cold sweat broke out on his back. An exclamation of "Ah" came out of his mouth uncontrollably, and the eyebrow stick fell to the ground, and he shook his hand vigorously, throwing the spider to the ground.

Seeing this situation, the thugs who were very nervous just now raised their eyebrows and looked at each other.

"You kid is afraid of spiders!" Scarface said with a sneer.

Shen Yao gritted his teeth to adjust his breathing, and stared at them as calmly as possible, but the corner of his eyes still couldn't help but glance at the spider on the ground.

"Third brother, it's up to you." Dao Scar said to the person next to him.

"Hehe, boss, just look at me, not only do I have Xiaohua on me, but I also have Xiaohei and long legs—"

……

Xuan Qi was sitting in the private seat on the second floor, watching the performance downstairs absent-mindedly, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

He knew that Shen Yao was not weak, and he shouldn't be so worried, but he was still worried.

The feeling of uneasiness became more and more unbearable, Xuan Qi no longer hesitated, got up and walked downstairs.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, he saw a young servant walking towards him, and said to him, "My lord, something happened to your friend at Furong's place, please follow me quickly."

Xuan Qi's black eyes moved quietly, and he nodded to follow.
