Chapter 53 Night Detective
Stay or come back tomorrow?
This is almost a no-brainer.
On the one hand, there is no place to rest around Yuliu Villa, so it is impossible to go out and sleep in the wilderness...
On the other hand, the variables in this villa are unknown. If I leave today, will I really be able to see Liu Suifeng when I come back tomorrow?
The longer the delay is, the more things will go wrong, and the escort may be in vain.
He immediately laughed and said:
"I was invited to Yuliu Villa, but the invitation was disrespectful, so the two of you will stay here all night."
The woman took another deep look at Su Mo, then turned her head and said nothing.
Seeing that everyone agreed to stay, Liu Qingkong nodded: "In that case, please come with me."
Liu Qingkong arranged this in an orderly manner. A total of nine people present were divided into three courtyards.
A monk, a woman, and a scholar lived in a courtyard.
The two swordsmen lived in the same courtyard as the rough man.
Su Mo, Yang Xiaoyun and the gentleman Ruyu were assigned to the same courtyard.
At this moment, the two people were already sitting in the room, the candles were lit, and the light flickered.
Su Mo looked at Yang Xiaoyun and couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xiaoyun, what happened to you just now?"
According to Yang Xiaoyun's ability, there is absolutely no reason to lose consciousness in that situation. If he thought of something, this would be the right time to say it.
Yang Xiaoyun looked at Su Mo, but frowned again.
Suddenly he said: "Stretch out your hand."
"...?"
Su Mo stretched out his hand in confusion.
Yang Xiaoyun reached over as if facing a formidable enemy and gently grabbed Su Mo's hand.
Then the two people looked at each other in the candlelight, eyes hooded.
"???"
Su Mo felt like he was just about to carve these three question marks on his forehead with a knife.
"……nothing."
Yang Xiaoyun shook his head: "I don't know what to say. It seemed like I was poisoned just now... However, after self-examination of my luck along the way, I found that there is nothing strange at all. This Yuliu Villa is really unpredictable!"
"Poisoned?"
Su Mo was stunned: "What does that have to do with my hand?"
"Just now when you were in the hall, you held my hand... and then I felt weak all over."
When Yang Xiaoyun said this, he smiled casually: "But now it seems that I am worrying too much."
"..."
Su Mo blinked his eyes, coughed slightly, and then said:
"Did Sister Xiaoyun notice something was wrong along the way?"
"Are you talking about Yuliu Villa? Or those people?"
Although Yang Xiaoyun asked this question, he did not wait for Su Mo to answer, and said: "Yuliu Villa is indeed a bit strange. When we came here, although I secretly practiced martial arts, I also found that the people in this village seemed to be weird.
It was much less than expected. And even when I met some maids and servants, they all looked sinister.
"Yuliu Villa has a very important reputation in this world, and the behavior of the people in the village is somewhat unjustifiable.
"And such a big Zhuangzi, just these people can't take care of it."
"Indeed."
Su Mo nodded: "Besides, that gentleman is as good as jade..."
When he said this, the corner of his mouth twitched, feeling that he felt a little guilty for saying this, and it was also a shame that he was able to write these four words on the fan without any shame.
He shook his head and continued: "The man said that they came to visit Yuliu Villa today. It seems that these people came unexpectedly. However, the waiter in Pingfeng Town told us that this group of people came unexpectedly.
For a period of time, although most people stayed in Pingfeng Town, some people came to Yuliu Villa first. Where are those people now?"
"Have you already said goodbye and left?"
"It's hard to say... I'm afraid only a small number of people came from Pingfeng Town. If the people coming from other directions are added together, it's probably not a small number. With so many people coming to Yuliu Villa, why is there no movement at all?
?”
Su Mo shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid everyone who came to visit today has their own thoughts. Liu Suifeng's avoidance did not seem to be beyond their expectations. This kind of behavior makes me feel bad.
The feeling... By the way, you may be able to see where those people today came from?"
Yang Xiaoyun shook his head and sighed: "The world is too big, and my eyesight is limited after all. Except for those two swordsmen, I can hardly see the basics of others. As for those two swordsmen... that sword before
With just a quick glance, I saw the way to the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"Heavenly Sword Gate."
Su Mo frowned slightly, this Tiandao Sect was no small matter.
This sect is the inheritance of a sect, but it also controls an area, and its power is north of the Luofeng Alliance.
If the Fallen Phoenix Alliance wants to expand northward, the first thing they have to face is the Heavenly Sword Sect... However, so far, the Fallen Phoenix Alliance has not moved an inch north, which shows how deeply they fear the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"But if it were them, it would not be difficult to explain why they have such sword skills and such cold temperament."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
The sword techniques of Tian Dao Sect are strict. It is said that the founding father originally came from the Taoist lineage. Cultivating the way of heaven and man, it is not trivial to have different mechanisms.
The more you practice the inner dharma, the weaker your human emotions become, and the more so, the more powerful your sword skills become.
Those who have reached the extreme point can become one of the swordsmen. The sword and man become one, and everything they pass by is sharp.
However, it is only heard that this realm of man and sword unites into one, and it seems that only the founder of the Tiandao Sect has ever reached this level.
It is said that when this man was at his peak, he cut through the sea of clouds and swept the clear sky thousands of miles away with one sword, so that the whole world was shaken, and the word "Tiandaomen" has been spread throughout the world for three hundred years.
Of course, the predecessors have passed away, so whether this matter is true or false is still a matter of speculation.
Jianghu people often like to exaggerate the truth, and the real situation may not be like the legend.
However, the Tian Dao Sect's sharp sword skills are generally recognized.
"The two swordsmen of the Tiandao Sect are unknown eccentrics. The people who visited before are now missing, but Liu Suifeng avoids the people he visits..."
Su Mo tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"How are you doing?"
Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Su Mo.
"I plan to visit Yuliu Villa at night."
Su Mo said: "This night is too long and unpredictable. If I can't see Liu Suifeng earlier, I will never feel at ease."
"good!"
Yang Xiaoyun nodded and said, "You have to be careful, I'll stay here just in case."
Su Mo smiled softly, Yang Xiaoyun's considerations always coincided with his.
Yang Xiaoyun patted the sword box again and said: "In addition, if you take this with you, if you can see Liu Suifeng, you don't need to wait to hand it over directly. By then, no matter whether we advance or retreat, we will have no worries.
