Peach Blossom Button

Sharp lightning tore through the sky, thunder rolled from far to near, and dark clouds covered the sky.

The young man in black stood inside the house with a sword in his hand. The rain dripped from the tip of the sword and the corner of his clothes, forming a small puddle on the ground where he stood.Jin Shuisheng stared blankly at the young man who broke through the window and flew over. His mind was in a mess for a moment. Boss Jin, who was usually eloquent, seemed to have tied his tongue, and the sharp sword he had been holding in his hand had slipped to the ground. , making an ear-piercing sound.

This was probably the only sound in the room.

Following the sound of chaotic footsteps, Bai Wangyan and the third young master Mo also rushed upstairs. The two seemed to have come in the rain. The two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the puppet that had been scrapped and under the sword.The Third Young Master Mo stood by the door panting violently. Although he experienced all kinds of things that could break his spirit, he still did not forget his duty as the owner of the villa. He walked forward and said to Jin Shuichang: "Mr. Jin, I'm sorry to surprise you."

But Jin Shuisheng just waved his hand, and he bowed deeply to the young man in black who saved his life three times: "Tao Shaoxia, you saved my life again, and Jin even suspected you before, really, really ...I really don't know how to repay you!" At the end of the sentence, he was still sobbing, the kneeling man regretted his suspicions before, he wished he could just get into the cracks in the ground, but the guilt in his heart hit like a mountain and a sea , It was hard to breathe for his whole body.

"Mr. Jin," Tao Mo frowned, shook off the rain on the long sword, and said, "You don't have to do this, I didn't do it for your reward." What he is afraid of is getting thanks from others, and these thanks weigh him down, and he suffers from communicating with others, so he usually doesn't know what to say at the moment.Fortunately, Bai Wangyan was there.

"Mr. Jin, please sit down and rest for a while. You must be very confused about the current situation." The scholar in white walked to Jin Shuisheng, helped him to the chair, and said softly, "Perhaps what we are talking about is difficult to understand. But please trust us."

Jin Shuisheng sat on the chair. He calmed down and finally calmed down. Immediately afterwards, his eyes fell on the broken "Wang Yong", and there was a flash of astonishment in his eyes: "What is this thing?" ?”

At this time, "Wang Yong" looked extremely strange, a big hole was pierced in his chest by Tao Mo's sword, and from the inside, it could be seen that the delicate mechanism had stopped working, and he was lying motionless on the ground now, It's like really "dead".

The third young master Mo walked up to the puppet, carefully inspected the carving process and the core of the puppet, and then straightened up, explaining: "This puppet is skilled in craftsmanship, but there is a shadow of imitating me, but look at this puppet. The arm of the puppet." After speaking, the third young master Mo pulled up the arm that had been hung down by the puppet, and took off the clothes on it, revealing the black texture with complicated patterns inside. He pointed to the material of the arm and said with great certainty: "This It is meteoric iron. I should know where the meteoric iron used to make the puppets came from. Mr. Jin, we asked your guild to buy a batch of meteoric iron many years ago, but when we cleaned up the warehouse the next year, we found that part of it was missing. This should be It was the Meteorite that was lost at that time. I blame my carelessness. I lost a lot of materials before, and I thought it was Mo Oak who secretly moved it away..."

Mo Bin lamented, the prejudice against his elder brother in his heart was so serious that he pushed all the crimes on Mo Li, so that he ignored the fourth person hidden in this villa.

Jin Shuisheng opened his mouth, he saw that "Wang Yong" was strange, he never thought that this was actually a puppet!He calmed down and asked, "Where is Wang Yong?"

With his forehead covering his eyes, Tao Mo tightly held the sword in his hand, and he answered Jin Shuisheng's question: "Brother Wang is dead."

"Wang Huwei was killed," Bai Wangyan lowered his eyes, and said slowly, "We went deep into Yanshi Pavilion to investigate again, and found Wang Huwei's body."

"It's Wangyan who sensed that you were in danger the first time." Third Young Master Mo took a deep breath and continued to explain, "We rushed over here."

"Wait, wait a minute," Jin Shuisheng raised his hand, and pressed his hand on his temple again. His mind is in a mess now. The words and phrases of the three people in front of him are very troublesome to read. He carefully speculates about the three people. The meaning in the words, I want to connect what they said together, "That is to say, when the two of you went to investigate this matter in order to help Tao Shaoxia get rid of his grievances, you happened to find that I was in danger? So why did you take my life?" ? Is this the same person who murdered your father?"

Mo Bin shut his mouth in an instant, and he frowned tightly, as if unwilling to answer this question.Seeing this, Bai Wangyan had no choice but to continue explaining to Jin Shuisheng: "We have already found out part of it, but there are still many things that cannot be figured out. Mr. Jin, are you willing to believe our words?"

"Tao Shaoxia saved my life three times in a row, how could I not believe it?" Jin Shuisheng said with great shame, "Before, I was blind and wronged Tao Shaoxia."

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll tell you what happened just now." Bai Wangyan nodded, and told Jin Shuisheng everything that happened in Yanshi Pavilion before, but Tao Mo was listening and found that the white man The scholar seems to have deliberately concealed some things, such as what happened in Mo Bin's secret room, such as the strange behavior of the puppet with a delicate heart...

Tao Mo thought that Bai Wangyan might have his own reasons for concealing these things, but Tao Mo also saw that Jin Shuisheng had a slightly strange expression when he heard "Mirage Fragrance". It was still captured by Tao Mo.But Tao Mo didn't say a word, just quietly listening to Bai Wangyan tell Jin Shuisheng what happened before, and now he chooses to trust this white-clothed scholar unconditionally.

"That's how it happened. We found the body of Guard Wang. We rushed to your residence quickly in case something happened to you," Bai Wangyan finally explained. He spread the three small pieces on the table , "The three pieces of meteorite iron we found are made of the same material as the puppet arm on the ground, and they are all used to make the puppet arm. This method of production is no different from using the puppet for weapons. The fatal wound was on the chest. The wound was not a sharp sword or a knife wound, but it looked like a puppet pierced it with one hand. We found that there was still blood on the fingertips of the meteorite. It is not difficult for people to be the ones who manipulate puppets."

Jin Shuisheng lowered his eyes, looked at the small pieces of meteorite, and sighed: "I see, so what can Jin do for you?"

"You just need to tell others about being attacked, and explain to everyone that someone else killed the owner of the village," Bai Wangyan said, "Please be sure to point out that the one who attacked you was a man from Mo San The puppet made by the young master, and it is suspected that Third Young Master Mo manipulated the puppet to kill the owner and seize his life's effort."

"Wait a minute, Wangyan, which song are you singing?" Mo Bin stood beside him with a dazed expression. Suddenly, the more he listened to Bai Wangyan's words, the more he felt that the meaning was wrong, and he finally got up and said angrily, " Why did you accuse me of such crimes!"

Bai Wangyan just glanced at him, didn't answer, and continued to order: "In short, with your reputation, first clear Tao Shaoxia's grievances, and insist that the third young master Mo is the murderer who killed the owner and attacked you. Difficult." He turned and explained to Mo Bin: "Ziwen, you must seize this opportunity, the main thing is that you can seize the opportunity, and the murderer who secretly caused trouble will definitely show up."

"You're kidding me! Such a thankless thing still happened to me..." Mo Bin was extremely displeased, but when Bai Wangyan said that the murderer could show up, he agreed with great reluctance , but he still had some doubts, "Your method really works?"

"Perhaps." Bai Wangyan said flatly.

After leaving Jin Shuisheng's residence, Mo Bin followed Bai Wangyan's order and went back to his room first.In a blink of an eye, Tao Mo found that Bai Wangyan was the only person around him. At this time, the wind and rain blew up in the middle of the night, shaking the bamboo forest, and the scholar was dressed in white as if he was about to float into the night with the wind and rain. Tao Mo panicked. Dazed, he quickly reached out and grabbed Bai Wangyan's arm, for fear that the young man in white would just leave with the wind and rain.Being jerked by Tao Mo, Bai Wangyan didn't know what he meant at first, but when he caught the panic in the other's eyes, he read a word or two, and the white-clothed scholar hooked Tao Mo. The corner of the mouth: "Tao Shaoxia is trying to keep me?"

Withdrew his hand suddenly, Tao Mo scratched his hair, extremely embarrassed.But Bai Wangyan deliberately wanted to tease him. The scholar stepped into the bamboo forest before him and walked towards Tao Mo's residence. When they met for the first time, Bai Wangyan already knew that Tao Mo's temporary residence was located in this bamboo forest. Therefore, he was also very familiar with the road, only Tao Mo followed him in the bamboo forest on a rainy night with his heart full of surprise.Arriving at the door of Tao Mo's residence, Bai Wangyan turned around and smiled at Tao Mo: "Tao Shaoxia, this stormy night is really difficult, if you don't mind, can you lend me a night?"

Those peach blossom eyes were shining like a white fox wagging its tail.Tao Mo vaguely remembered that his master had told him some stories about foxes, ghosts and evil spirits. At the beginning of the story, there must have been a beautiful woman begging to stay overnight in the bleak wind and rain, but when these words came out of Bai Wangyan's mouth, he couldn't refuse .

After all, it was really difficult for the person in front of him to repay his kindness to him.

But there was no other expression on Tao Mo's face. He opened the door and said to Bai Wangyan, "Come in."

So this handsome scholar in white walked into Tao Mo's residence.Unexpectedly, after entering the door, Bai Wangyan quickly closed the door and window, and vigilantly observed the sounds outside on a stormy night. After making sure that there were no other noises outside, he breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the chair and sat down: "Ziwen should It will be fine, I am only afraid that someone will follow the two of us, now, I have to think about my life, and please Tao Shaoxia don't blame me."

After all, he has already taken over the investigation of the murder case, and the truth has gradually come to light. As a scholar who does not know martial arts at all, Bai Wangyan is of course afraid of being threatened with his life, and the safest place for him is not to stay too far away from Tao Mo. After all, Shaoxia Tao is highly skilled in martial arts, even if some murderous puppet comes, it is enough to deal with it.
