No matter who the mastermind behind this matter is, Miao Qi and the others must act quickly.
It would not be long before Tsing Yi Lou would know about Miao Qi and the others letting go of the man in black.
However, there are often only two consequences that can occur if the opponent chooses to evade, or sticks out his fangs and launches a more violent attack, but I also know that the possibility of choosing the former is very small.
So what they will face next is very likely to be Qingyilou's all-out pursuit and obstruction.
"Let's talk to Yan Tieshan first."
After struggling for a long time, Lu Xiaofeng finally set the goal of the first step.
The richest man in Shanxi, Yan Tieshan.
Among the three portraits given by King Jinpeng, at least two of them are old acquaintances of Lu Xiaofeng.
One is Huo Xiu, and the other is Yan Tieshan.
In terms of friendship, among these two people, Huo Xiu and Lu Xiaofeng have the best relationship, and they are also the ones who know Lu Xiaofeng's temperament best. Logically speaking, the person they suspect the most now should be Huo Xiu, but Lu Xiaofeng feels that Of the three, the least likely candidate to be the mastermind behind the scenes was Huo Xiu.
"Because he is already the richest person in the world." How could such a person risk ruining his reputation to covet a treasure that is far less rich than his own?
This remark sounds reasonable.
But Miao Qi has a different opinion.
"Having money does not mean that you are not greedy. I also know that there are many rich people who have a lot of money, but they still care about it for a tael of silver. Besides, how can a person who is not greedy for money be able to do business well?" That big?"
Lu Xiaofeng weakly retorted: "Ximen is also a person who treats money like dung."
But the business of Wanmei Villa is not small.
Isn't this a ready-made example?
Before Miao Qi could express her opinion on the example Lu Xiaofeng raised, the person concerned came forward to speak for herself.
Ximen Chuixue said: "The properties of Wanmei Villa are all managed by Steward Mei."
In other words, it means that the example Lu Xiaofeng gave is not suitable to be applied to him.
Huo Xiu is different from Ximen Chuuxue, Huo Xiu's business is grown little by little by himself, but Ximen Chuuxue is a real shopkeeper, he has never managed the properties under the name of Wanmei Villa .
Lu Xiaofeng was finally speechless.
He silently raised his hands to cover his face, and after a long silence, he said, "So, is your suggestion to confront Huo Xiu first?"
"No." Miao Qi clasped her arms around her chest, leaning lazily on the only intact pillar in the temple, and explained: "I just don't agree with what you just said, and I don't disagree with starting with Yan Tieshan first. .”
Of course, the persimmons should be picked softly.
Of the three, Yan Tieshan was obviously the best 'bully'. He hadn't been kicked in the head by a donkey, so how could he refuse to take the easy target and insist on challenging the other two difficult targets first.
Hearing this, the corner of Lu Xiaofeng's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes at Miao Qi.
He dared to take his only two remaining eyebrows as a guarantee. What Miao Qi said just now, besides disagreeing with his statement, must have deliberately disturbed his thoughts.
Isn't it just that in order to ease the atmosphere, he made fun of Miao Qi's fear of ghosts?
This kid is not willing to suffer at all.
Miao Qi blinked innocently, and changed the subject: "Okay, okay, after finishing the business, shouldn't we also discuss how to settle things tonight?"
It's midnight now, and I'm afraid it's impossible to find an inn nearby if you go down the mountain at this point, but if you want to stay in this temple for one night... Do they have to put the corpse still lying on the ground first? , deal with it?
To tell the truth, Miao Qi was reluctant to spend the night in this temple where someone had just died.
Lu Xiaofeng obviously didn't want to make do with this place either.
He rolled his eyes and cast his gaze on Ximen Chuuxue.
"Hey hey, Simon, what do you think?"
Ximen Chuuxue looked back at Lu Xiaofeng coldly, and then said: "We can go back to Wanmei Villa."
In fact, even if Lu Xiaofeng didn't mention it, Ximen Chuuxue would not agree to stay in this kind of place at night, not to mention that someone died in this temple just now, just saying that it has been abandoned for so long, almost everywhere is full of dust, it is enough to let Ai Jie's Ximen Chuuxue couldn't stand it.
However, it's always a bit embarrassing to bring up the matter of going to someone else's house to spend the night.
That's why Lu Xiaofeng didn't explain directly.
The next day.
Miao Qi and his party set off from Wanmei Villa again.
This time, their treatment was much better.
It has to be said that Ximen Chuuxue is indeed a person who enjoys himself very much. When he was not in a hurry, he directly ordered the housekeeper to prepare a carriage for transportation. With Ximen Chuuxue's light, Miao Qi and the others finally didn't have to Then brave the wind and the sun, and ride on the road.
There are two carriages.
Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou took one, Miao Qi and Ximen Chuuxue took the other.
In fact, Miao Qi originally planned to sit with Lu Xiaofeng Huamanlou. After all, he and Ximen Chuuxue are not familiar with each other, and Ximen Chuuxue is a taciturn person. Sitting with him, Miao Qi, who has a more lively personality, would prefer to sit with him. In other words, it will probably be a kind of torture.
But Ximen Chuuxue took the initiative to invite Miao Qi to ride with him.
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be a demon. With full of doubts and curiosity, Miao Qi started to stare at Ximen Chuuxue without saying a word—this time, Miao Qi stared at a lamp. After tea time, Ximen Chuuxue not only didn't react at all, but even closed his eyes and made a posture of being in a state of concentration.
Miao Qi: "..."
Speechlessly retracting her gaze, Miao Qi raised her hand, rubbed her sore eyes, and began to wonder if she was thinking too much.Perhaps, Ximen Chuuxue invited him to take a carriage together, just to express his kindness and friendliness to his new friend?
At this moment, Ximen Chuuxue suddenly spoke.
He still maintained a posture of closing his eyes and resting his mind, as if he asked Miao Qi casually: "Do you know the swordsman Yangming?"
"Well, it's not considered acquaintance, just heard of it."
Hearing this, Miao Qi blinked, and asked Ximen Chuuxue in surprise, "Could it be that you didn't see that what I said yesterday was just to fool that man in black?"
He also only learned about the swordsman Yangming from the mouth of Mr. Guisun not long ago.
To be honest, he originally planned to use this matter as a backhand, and use it to blackmail Yu Luocha when Yu Luocha came to trouble him again in the future. In fact, if he didn't know the details of the swordsman Yangming, he wouldn't be able to fool the man in black so easily.
"But that person clearly determined that you are the descendant of swordsman Yangming."
Ximen Chuuxue opened his eyes, glanced at Miao Qi inexplicably, and said, "There is nothing wrong with it."
Touching her nose, Miao Qi smiled and said, "You've already said that, so I'll let you in on a little secret. I really don't know Swordsman Yangming, but I know two people who have some connections with Swordsman Yangming." , Those people will mistakenly think that I am the descendant of swordsman Yangming, it should be because of this reason."
Being mistaken as the descendant of the swordsman Yangming, Miao Qi naturally had doubts in his heart.
So before he fell asleep last night, he thought about this question very seriously.
The result of thinking about it, of course, is inseparable from Chu Liuxiang.
Chu Liuxiang's identity as Yedi's successor, although few people know it, it's not impossible to find out at all. He thinks that Tsingyi Building should have found out Chu Liuxiang's identity, and because he was born in the Western Regions, his usual weapon is a pair of knives, so He was connected with Swordsman Yangming.
two?
After catching the key point revealed by Miao Qi's words, Ximen Chuuxue lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while, when Miao Qi thought he would not be talking, he suddenly said: "You know Yu Luocha."
This sentence is in an affirmative tone.
Hearing what Ximen Chuuxue said, Miao Qi subconsciously became a little wary.
The reason why she became wary was not that Miao Qi felt that there was something wrong with Ximen Chuuxue, but because some things were destined to remain secrets, for example, Chu Liuxiang's parentage background, and for example, his acquaintance with Yu Luocha.
Miao Qi would not reveal this kind of thing easily even to the best of friends. Friends really need to be honest, but if being honest will bring them huge troubles, then Miao Qi believes that it is best not to let They know certain things.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and replied calmly: "Why do you think so?"
"You said, you know two people who have connections with Swordsman Yangming."
"Of these two people, one should be the heir of Yedi, and the other is naturally the real heir of the swordsman Yangming, am I right?" Compared to Miao Qiqiang's pretended calmness, the expression on Ximen Chuuxue's face , It's really calm.
Even if what he was talking about now was something that would surprise most people in the martial arts world, his tone was still flat as if he was talking about the weather.
Miao Qi swallowed her saliva, and whispered: "You, you, how do you know this?"
Listening to Ximen Chuuxue's tone, it is obvious that Yu Luocha is the heir of the swordsman Yangming - thinking carefully, it is really scary!
Ximen Chuuxue glanced at Miao Qi lightly, and said, "Of course I have my news channel."
Is this what you don't want to reveal?
Miao Qi blinked, suppressed the surging doubts in her heart, put her hands on her chest, and smiled at Ximen Chuuxue: "Well, since you know so much, then I don't need to do anything to cover up. You know too , I was born in the desert of the Western Regions, I am afraid there is no one in our place who does not know Yu Luocha."
This sentence obviously contains a lot of water.
But Ximen Chuuxue didn't intend to delve into it.
Because what he wanted to know had already been answered.
It would not be long before Tsing Yi Lou would know about Miao Qi and the others letting go of the man in black.
However, there are often only two consequences that can occur if the opponent chooses to evade, or sticks out his fangs and launches a more violent attack, but I also know that the possibility of choosing the former is very small.
