Obsession [Quick Transmigration]

Of course, what Jiang Mu said was all speculation.

After a while, there seemed to be some people gathered outside the courtyard, and the noise gradually became louder. From the room, it seemed that they were discussing something. Jiang Mu opened the window over there, just in time to see the situation outside.

Outside were four Jianghu young men, in their early twenties, chattering under the tree, Xu Nian was there that day, and Jiang Mu's behavior of opening the window was immediately noticed by several people.

Xu Nian was a little surprised and said, "Young Master Jiang.

Jiang Mu nodded slightly to him: "Mr. Xu."

After he finished speaking, he put his hand on the window sill, and jumped out of the room with an easy push, his movements were chic and neat.

Xu Nian introduced Jiang Mu to them. At this moment, Xuan Ying also walked over from the door. He is a famous disciple of the Buddhist sect. Rest assured that they are all righteous people.

A man in blue clothes asked: "Hey, I wonder if you heard something?

Xu Nian helplessly raised his forehead: "Liu Hao, what have you heard?"

When he said this, it was obvious that Liu Hao often sold gossip in front of people, and the other party was not angry and said mysteriously: "This thing is different from usual, and it happened among us guests...

The 37 people who did not come to the luncheon were mentioned by the wealthy businessman later, and many people privately noticed that what Liu Hao said was about this.

It is said that someone came back and found that the courtyard next to him was suddenly empty, and there was no trace of living in the courtyard, as if it had disappeared neatly. He asked the Cheng family, and the response was that they had left on their own last night.

It's really strange, how could Hao Duanduan leave suddenly?

Moreover, Master Cheng's funeral has not yet started, and the treasures, cheat books and money have not been found. Isn't it a waste of time to go away like this?

Everyone was thinking about it, Liu Hao said with a little affectation: "Some people also said that there was a strange noise last night..."

"Knock on the door?" It was Jiang Mu who spoke, and he interrupted Liu Hao's words abruptly, and his cold tone made people jump.

Liu Hao said in surprise: "Yes! Brother Jiang heard the knock on the door?"

Jiang Mu nodded slightly, and Xuan Ying beside him replied: "Amitabha, there was indeed a strange knock on the door last night. At that time, the poor monk went to open the door, but there was no one outside the door. It was really weird."

Xu Nian stared slightly, his expression seemed a bit incredulous: "Even Master Xuan Ying didn't notice it, could it be that those people's martial arts are so advanced?"

"Hey, that's wrong." Liu Hao waved his hands with a bit of taboo on his expression, "Everyone can trust Master Xuanying's strength, but that kind of ghost is like a ghost without anyone noticing it, maybe it's not a human being. "

A young man in yellow who was present laughed and said, "Why are you pretending to be a ghost again while you're talking?"

The man in purple who had been silent all this time also shook his head: "Liu Hao, why do you always believe in such ghosts and gods? According to what you said, if this is a ghost, it would be a bit ridiculous. This place is Cheng's mansion, and only Master Cheng died. , you don't want to say that Master Cheng cheated on the corpse, do you?"

"This..." Liu Hao is also a little stuck, but he has always been stubborn, "Maybe it's other lonely ghosts, you see, this island is gloomy, surrounded by the sea, in case there are many unclean things Well, who the hell knows if those thirty or so people left or something?"

Sometimes Xu Nian couldn't bear this friend's nagging, he asked back: "If it's not gone, what could it be? You don't want to say that they were arrested or died, do you?"

Liu Hao pursed his lips: "I once heard some elders say that in places far away from the world, such as deserted islands, oceans, deep mountains, deserts, etc., sometimes a group of travelers will suddenly disappear, saying that it is impermanence that may be seduced. Brought to the underworld to recharge."

Jiang Mu gave him a strange look: "Yin Er is not so unprincipled."

Xu Nian was also a little funny: "That's right, I know from the rumors that they take the dead away. The more you say it, the more outrageous it is."

Liu Hao muttered softly: "You are not errands, how do you know the truth?"

The man in purple rubbed his arms: "Okay, don't talk about it, there will be a funeral soon, it's annoying, just think of it for the sake of Mr. Cheng, and don't talk about ghosts and gods. Besides, you won't be afraid." Because of my unrestrained speech, be careful that he comes to you in the middle of the night?"

These words were more useful than rebuttals, Liu Hao immediately shut up, but he was born to like to listen to and collect all kinds of gossip, so he couldn't be idle after shutting up for a while.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about the island, but on the way here, you should have heard about the massacre of one hundred and three members of the Zhao family, right?"

Jiang Mu and Xuan Ying still knew nothing about this matter, but the other two did, and Xu Nian, as his colleague, also knew.

Xuan Ying asked, "Which Zhao family?"

Xu Nian replied, "It's the Zhao Family Escort Bureau."

The Zhao Family Escort Bureau is a big family in Guanzhong. It has traveled all over the country for so many years and has made friends with various forces in the arena. Moreover, its owner is also the head of the Escort Zhao Xu. He is very skilled in martial arts and is also a first-class master in the arena. It was really shocking to destroy the whole family.

One hundred and three members of the Zhao family, except for Zhao Xu, were all hacked to death with knives. death, no clues of the murderer were left at the scene, and all the property in the house was well placed. From the current point of view, this is a case of exterminating the family with a very clear purpose.

Jiang Mu asked: "Does the government have any clues?"

Liu Hao shook his head: "It wasn't there before we landed on the island, but I don't know if there is any now. It's probably because the enemy is looking for revenge, and all the corpses were collected in the Yizhuang under the yamen."

Xu Niandao: "This matter is quite mysterious, especially Zhao Biaotou."

Liu Hao nodded: "Yes, it's even more bizarre when it comes to Zhao Biaotou. Although he cut his throat with a knife, his face was destroyed and his flesh and blood were blurred. If it weren't for the things on his body and his own physical condition, It's hard to tell who it is just from this ruined face, alas, if it wasn't for this incident, maybe Escort Zhao is also on the island now."

It would be better not to say his last sentence. The tragedy of extermination and the sudden disappearance of 37 people felt an indescribably strange feeling. They seemed to be able to see that tall and mighty man who met him one night. Unexpectedly, his life was lost, his face was also ruined, and he fell into a pool of blood at home, his body gradually became cold and hard.

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became. I don't know if it was because the scene was too bloody, or because I was afraid that I would be that unfortunate person. This conversation will soon end.

Saying goodbye to those young heroes, Jiang Mu and his wife went around the Cheng Mansion along the path, and they also saw the place where the mourning hall is said to be, but it was tightly closed and there was no way to get in. The scenery in other places is not bad. , but it was like that after watching too much, and finally they returned to their courtyard.

There is really no other place to go, so I can't wander around in the mansion where the funeral is being prepared.

The guest room is still full of things. Jiang Mu took out a pair of Go from the bookcase and laid it out. He looked up at the monk who was chanting and meditating when he had nothing to do.

"It is said that Master Xuanying is superb at chess."

"Others praise it."

"My chess skills are not so good, master please."

He said so, but only after he played did he realize that they are all self-effacing. Xuan Ying's chess moves are more cautious, each move is mysterious, and every step is a way to focus on the overall situation. Jiang Mu's chess moves are more open and closed. The offensive was fierce but not hasty, and had nothing to do with his frail appearance.

A game of chess was inseparable, and soon it was dark. Cheng's house did not hold any dinner at night, and the food was delivered by the servants. After the dinner, the two continued to play the chessboard, and decided the outcome. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Xuanying approached the door, and he got up to open the door.

The people standing outside the door were those from the afternoon, Xu Nian hurriedly said, "Have you seen Liu Hao?"

Xuan Ying shook his head, and Jiang Mu also came over: "I haven't seen Mr. Liu since we parted in the afternoon, what happened?"

Xu Nian anxiously said, "Liu Hao is gone!"
