The He Family Fort With the Sword Chapter 152 - Secret Detective Qingqiu
Jiang Ningxue returned to the room and picked up the bronze mirror. The woman in the mirror had dark eyebrows, eyes condensed with autumn water, a raised nose and thin lips, peach blossoms blooming on her face, and a slight blush.
Jiang Ningxue seemed to feel that she had never smiled as happily as she did today in many years. Even if she sneaked out of the house, joined the Lingyun Sword Sect and became a close disciple of Jian Lingyun, she had never been like this.
Before today, this pretty face was as cold as the ten-thousand-year-old black ice, but today it has a trace of blood. The Luck Cold Jade Secret has been running for a short time, and I noticed nothing unusual, so I picked it up again.
With the bronze mirror at hand, stroking the fairy-like cheek in the mirror, Jiang Ningxue said to herself, "What's wrong with me?"
Recalling the word "friend" in the young man's mouth just now, this "fairy" senior sister who was known as cold as ice and unsmiling in Lingyun Sword Sect lowered her head. If the disciples of Lingyun Sword Sect saw this scene, I'm afraid they would be afraid.
I want to climb to the top of the sect to see if the sun is rising in the west.
Gu Xiao in the other room was as sleepless as before. He kept thinking about how to find out the whereabouts of Murong Gu. He tossed and turned like this for about half an hour, when Gu Xiao heard soft footsteps outside the door.
Walking through the verandah in front of my house.
"Didn't Jin Buyi say that Hejiabao has a curfew at night? It's almost midnight, who is it?" Gu Xiao muttered, got off the bed, put on his coat, and walked quickly to the window
He stood aside, pushed the window eaves open a small gap, and looked out.
I saw a familiar figure walking quickly towards Muxia Garden.
"Is it him?" Gu Xiao couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
Just because this person was Jin Buyi who told Gu Xiao that there was a curfew in Hejiabao. Seeing Jin Buyi was about to leave Muxia Garden, Gu Xiao remembered what the three brothers He Bufan told him about the relationship between Jin Buyi and the Chongyang Pen.
I wonder if they will mention the clues about Murong Gu. Gu Xiao thought about it, opened the door, and followed Jin Buyi secretly.
Knowing that there were so many masters in Hejiabao, Gu Xiao would inevitably cause trouble. Gu Xiao did not use Qing Gong, but suppressed his footsteps and followed Jin Buyi from a distance.
Following all the way, Gu Xiao couldn't help but wonder, the Hejiabao family has a great business, not to mention that along the way, there is not even a guard guarding the gate of the He family's villa. Are they not afraid of thieves breaking in at night?
.
Remembering that the three brothers He Jiahe and Bufan were hiding in the dark to guard the building, Gu Xiao walked all the way and carefully checked whether there were any hidden sentries guarding the surrounding area. However, following Jin Buyi along the way, he found no hidden sentry or guards.
Gu Xiao walked through Hejiabao with Jin Buyi, passing through various verandas and courtyards. After walking for about half an hour, Jin Buyi finally stopped in front of a moon gate.
Jin Buyi raised his head and looked at the three words "Qingqiu Garden" above the moon gate. There was a faint fear in his eyes full of justice. After calming down, Jin Buyi looked behind him alertly and saw the darkness on the way.
, no one was following him, and then shaking his robe, Jin Buyi walked into Qingqiu Garden with his head held high.
After Jin Buyi's figure disappeared behind the moon gate, Gu Xiao appeared in the darkness along the way. When he saw the three words Qingqiuyuan on the moon gate, Gu Xiao whispered to himself: "It seems that any
What the second brother said is true. Jin Buyi has indeed come to Qingqiu Garden again. I wonder if he has gone to see Mr. Chongyang again."
Gu Xiao thought to himself that he was too lazy to care about Jin Buyi's request for Chongyang Bi. However, if he had the opportunity to ask Chongyang Bi for help, he might be able to find out something about Murong Gu's whereabouts from them. He made up his mind.
Gu Xiao still decided to take the risk and venture into Qingqiu Garden.
After confirming again and again that there were no hidden sentries around, Gu Xiao bent over and entered Qingqiu Garden under the cover of night. Under the courtyard wall, there were shrubs that had withered in winter, and only the branches were left. Fortunately, Gu Xiao
The green shirt is invisible and blends in with the night.
Standing still, Gu Xiao raised his eyes and looked into Qingqiu Garden. He happened to see Jin Buyi walking to a corner and submerging himself. He quickly raised his breath and tiptoed forward. At that corner, he leaned against the wall with his back.
Look around.
Under the cover of night, Jin Daxia, who has been famous for many years on the Lingjue List, is kneeling in front of a closed door without saying a word. In that room, the lights are flickering, and a figure waving a fan is reflected on the window lattice of the room.
"I learned that Mr. Bu Yi came to Hejiapu today, so I came here to visit him. I hope you can meet me." Jin Bu Yi knelt straight in front of the room and spoke respectfully.
"How can I bear the trouble of having to trouble Master Jin to come to Qingqiu Garden every year?"
Gu Xiao heard the person in the room speak. It was the person who had threatened him outside the Hejiabao gate before, and it was also the Chongyang pen in the hand of Chongyang, the so-called immortal official, who recorded everything in the world.
"Sir, you are too modest. I have admired you the most in my life, not to mention that it is very laborious for you to record everything in the world. I came here to pay you a special visit and asked you to see me." He seemed not to care about the ridicule of the people in the room.
Jin Buyi still knelt in the snow and spoke respectfully.
"Obviously he is just a mortal, but the master calls himself an immortal and behaves so coquettishly, it is really ridiculous." Seeing this situation, Gu Xiao thought to himself.
When the people in the room heard the words, they were silent for a moment, then suddenly there was a "squeak" and the door opened.
Seeing this, Jin Buyi, who had been kneeling for a long time, had a flash of surprise in his eyes. He quickly stood up, brushed off the snow on his clothes, and bowed inside.
Gu Xiao, who was spying outside, couldn't help but shake his head. This person on the top list was so humble in front of the so-called Mr. Chongyang. Seeing that he had entered the room, Gu Xiao hurriedly moved forward.
Bowing into the garden, Gu Xiao raised his true energy and walked out quickly on the snow. He made no sound and left no trace on the snow. He jumped to the window, pricked up his ears and listened to the movement in the house.
"Sir, that thing is related to Jin's reputation over the years. I hope you will be kind to me."
"Jin Daxia, I have told you many times, as long as you behave yourself and get things done for Brother He, I will burn those things about you, and I will also hand over that person.
for you."
"I have followed my ancestor's instructions and put an end to the rumors about that incident back then. Over the years, I have contributed a lot to the He family. I hope that in view of these things, sir, I can speak kindly to Jin in front of my ancestor.
..."
"No need to say more, Master Jin... Let's see. Over the years, through the arena, the He family has recruited many good players. This time, the proud disciples of the Water Sword Sect and the reverse swords are coming. As long as that beast shows up.
...You just have to...so...such...such...such..."
Gu Xiao could only hear the two people's voices getting quieter and quieter by the window. He could no longer hear them from behind. He was about to get closer and listen more carefully, but unexpectedly, an angry scolding interrupted the peace in the garden.
"who!"
Shui Canglan was punched in the face by Gu Xiao outside the gate of Hejiabao. He asked his attendants to give him medicine, so he thought of coming to Mr. Chongyang's room to pay his respects. When he entered the courtyard where Mr. Chongyang lived, he saw
I saw a dark figure secretly eavesdropping on something under the wall, and immediately shouted loudly.
If he quietly retreated and then sent someone to catch him, Gu Xiao would definitely have nowhere to escape. However, he was reckless and shouted loudly to scare the snake away. The black figure turned around and walked away. Shui Canglan hurriedly rushed forward, and it happened that Jin Bu
Yi and Mr. Chongyang opened the door to check, only to see Shui Canglan chasing after him.
The reason why the Hejiapu was not fortified at night was because the He family was in Zangbei City and no one dared to mess with it. Moreover, the He family's annual competition provided many people with support, so there had never been any overnight thefts.
As for the Qingqiu Garden where Chongyang Bi lives, there are very few people on weekdays, and there is no one to guard it. Although Shui Canglan shouts loudly, the gold, silver, and bronze guards are all in Meiyue Garden, which is far away from each other.
Everyone knows that Mr. Chongyang likes peace and quiet and dare not disturb him late at night.
Therefore, Gu Xiao ran all the way without anyone stopping him. But even so, Gu Xiao felt that continuing like this was not an option. Although Shui Canglan who was chasing him all the way behind him was far inferior to him in lightness skills and was covered by the night, he never saw his face.
, but if his entanglement alarmed the He family, he would be discovered sooner or later.
Turning back slightly, he saw Shui Canglan following behind him from a distance, with no intention of giving up. Looking forward, he saw Jin Buyi already guarding the moon gate of Qingqiu Garden at some point.
Gu Xiao didn't know that Jin Buyi would come to Qingqiu Garden every year to visit Mr. Chongyang. He was already familiar with the roads and trails in this garden. When he heard Shui Canglan shouting loudly, he knew someone was sneaking in, so he took the path and stood guard at the gate of Qingqiu Garden.
.
Seeing that there was an interception in front of him and a pursuer behind him, it might be difficult to escape. He had just entered Hejiabao and had not yet found any clues about Murong Gu and Qingsi Luo... Gu Xiao suddenly thought that there was Lin in his arms.
The Mizong Pills given by Er jumped onto the garden wall. Gu Xiao slowed down, reached into his arms, and took out two pills with his fingertips.
Jin Buyi is an old man. He watched the figure slow down from a distance and screamed in his heart. He was about to call out to Shui Canglan to be careful, but it was too late.
He saw two blasts in the night sky, and two half-finger-sized projectiles flying towards Shui Canglan and himself respectively. Not knowing whether they were poisonous or not, Jin Buyi did not dare to be careless and picked up a gravel in the snow on the ground with his feet.
, with a strike of his toe, the gravel flew towards the projectile.
Although Shui Canglan was reckless, he was not stupid. When he saw what seemed to be a hidden weapon flying towards him, he waved his hand with one hand and fired the dart in his sleeve towards the hidden weapon.
"Bang, bang" made two muffled sounds. As the rocks and darts hit the Mizong Pill at the same time, two clouds of smoke burst out from the projectile. The land around Shui Canglan and Jin Buyi was suddenly covered by this.
Shrouded in smoke.
Shui Canglan was worried that the thief would take advantage of the smoke to sneak up on him, so he immediately stopped pursuing him and concentrated on alert.
Jin Buyi has been in the martial arts world for many years, and within a moment he realized that the smoke was only used to confuse the enemy and was not poisonous, so he mobilized his inner strength, waved his sleeves, and his inner strength surged out to disperse the smoke.
Looking at the wall where the mysterious man stood just now, there was no figure left, only Shui Canglan was still trapped in the smoke behind him.
Jumping up, Jin Buyi jumped to the top of the wall, and was about to pull Shui Canglan out of the smoke, but heard the sound of the smoke breaking through the air coming towards him.
Turning his head slightly to avoid Shui Canglan's hidden weapon in the smoke, Jin Buyi looked into the smoke and said in a deep voice: "Master Shui, it's me, Jin Buyi."
After saying this, the wind from Jin Buyi's palm suddenly rose, dispersing the smoke that trapped Shui Canglan.
"Master Jin, where is the thief?" Shui Canglan said anxiously.
"Escaped, how can the thief be seen by Master Shui?" Jin Buyi asked.
Shui Canglan tried his best to recall. Although he couldn't see the face of the man, he still felt that his clothes looked familiar. He slapped his head and suddenly said: "It's the boy in front of the door, the boy in the green shirt."
Jin Buyi also remembered that the figure of the mysterious man was somewhat similar to that of the young man. His eyes moved slightly and he said: "Catching thieves and seizing stolen goods. How can we make a conclusion without catching this person face to face?"
Shui Canglan knew Jin Buyi's concerns and immediately said: "That boy has just come to Hejiabao and is not familiar with the roads in the fort. As long as we rush there now, Hejiabao has a curfew. If he is not in the room,
We have reason to detain him and then interrogate him slowly."
Jin Buyi didn't want his night visit to Qingqiu Garden to be disturbing to everyone, but he couldn't get Shui Canglan to insist on going, so he had to nod in agreement.
"Hmph, boy, as long as I find you are not in the room, you will look good." Shui Canglan gritted his teeth.
After the two of them had reached an agreement, they took up their Qinggong and flew towards Muxia Garden.
