Early the next morning, Qi Fang got up early to wash up, and then saw the diary on the bedside.
"I'm going to ask the store owner soon if he knows who this diary belongs to." Qi Fang said, picking up the diary.
But the next moment, Qi Fang's expression became strange.
"No, something's wrong. I... I'm illiterate. Why, when I read it yesterday, I knew what was written in it?" Qi Fang looked stunned: "Did I suddenly become literate?"
Qi Fang felt weird, and even thought that she had encountered some supernatural things like monsters and monsters, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Subconsciously, she dropped the diary she had just picked up on the table, and then ran out in a panic.
"Dad, senior brother, it's not good, it's not good." Qi Fang went to knock on the door of Qi Changfa and Di Yun's room.
"Fang'er, what's wrong? Are you screaming so early in the morning?" Qi Changfa opened the door and looked at his daughter with a frown.
"Junior sister, are you okay?" Di Yun, who was behind Qi Changfa, was very concerned about Qi Fang.
"Dad, senior brother, I, I seem to have encountered a ghost -" Qi Fang's face turned pale and she looked very frightened.
"Encountered a ghost? What nonsense are you talking about?" Qi Changfa became more and more unhappy, even irritable.
Originally, Qi Changfa lost his sword manual of Liancheng Sword Technique, and then he was invited over by his senior brother Wan Zhenshan, the master of Wuyun. Qi Changfa thought that his sword manual might have been stolen by Wan Zhenshan.
So he took advantage of Wan Zhenshan's invitation to bring Qi Fang and Di Yun to Jingzhou City. However, because of Liancheng's swordsmanship and the treasure, Qi Changfa was never in a good mood.
Now, early in the morning, Qi Fang actually shouted that she had encountered a ghost. This made Qi Changfa, who was already not in a good mood and was particularly irritable, even more irritable.
"Really dad, I really encountered a ghost. Dad, you know, I can't read at all, but I read yesterday -" Just when Qi Fang was about to say the words "diary", he suddenly couldn't
When she opened her mouth, there was even a death threat surrounding her, as if she would be killed immediately if she said the words "diary".
Qi Fang's pupils shrank violently, and her originally pale face became even paler. In the end, she even rolled her eyes, fainted, and fell softly to the ground.
"Fang'er伱——"
"Junior sister!" Di Yun took the lead and nervously held Qi Fang in his arms: "Junior sister, junior sister, what's wrong with you, junior sister? Junior sister—"
"Go away, let me take a look." Qi Changfa kicked Di Yun away, then grabbed Qi Fang's wrist and checked her pulse.
Although Qi Changfa is not a doctor, he has no distinction between medicine and martial arts, so he is somewhat familiar with things like taking pulse.
"It seems that he was frightened——" Qi Changfa frowned, feeling increasingly irritable.
"Master, junior sister, how is she, master?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little scared - you, you stay and take care of your junior sister. As for your senior uncle, there's no need to go there." Qi Changfa snorted coldly.
Although Qi Changfa was a scumbag, he still had feelings for Qi Fang, his daughter. Although it was not deep, just a little bit, of course, more than anything else, he didn't want to make things more troublesome, so he simply let Di Yun
This silly boy stayed to take care of Qi Fang. Then he went to Wanfu alone to find his senior brother.
"Now that I know Master, I will definitely take good care of my junior sister." Di Yun nodded quickly.
Although Di Yun was a little curious about Jingzhou City, after all, it was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden and seeing Jingzhou City for the first time. However, that curiosity was nothing compared to his junior sister Qi Fang. He would rather stay
I take care of my junior sister and don’t want to visit Jingzhou City.
Therefore, Di Yun and Qi Fang were left behind by Qi Changfa and headed to Wanfu alone.
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong were unaware of the changes on Di Yun's side.
At this time, Ye Xiu and Huang Rong got up and were having breakfast. At the same time, the two of them also began to discuss the next plan of action.
First is money.
Although gold is more valuable than silver, well, for the same amount of money, gold is smaller in size, but it is still not very convenient to carry.
Therefore, Ye Xiu wanted to exchange the gold that Ye Xiu and Huang Rong brought out from the treasure into silver notes to carry with them. In this martial arts world, silver notes are still very firm and will not depreciate at will.
Especially Huajia’s Datong Bank and Wan Sanqian’s Wantong Bank.
Both of these two families hold very huge wealth, and the banks they have established are widely trusted by the public. Even the official banknotes used mostly come from these two families.
Therefore, after Ye Xiu and Huang Rong finished eating, they went directly to Datong Bank with their money and exchanged most of the gold in their hands for silver notes.
Two large bundles of gold were exchanged for a thick stack of silver notes.
Ye Xiu directly divided the stack of banknotes into two and handed half of the banknotes to Huang Rong.
"Huh? Brother Xiu, you want to give me so many banknotes?"
"Haven't you ever heard of sharing half of it when we meet? What's more, the gold itself was brought out by you and me together. Of course, I will share it with you in half." Ye Xiu smiled and said matter-of-factly.
"Okay, then I'll accept it first. If Brother Xiu needs the money, just come to me directly." Huang Rong smiled and accepted the banknote.
After accepting the banknote, Huang Rong seemed to be in a better mood.
"Brother Xiu, where should we go next?"
"Let's visit Jingzhou City first to see if there are any interesting places in Jingzhou City, if there is any special food, etc." Ye Xiu said to Huang Rong with a smile.
"Okay." Huang Rong happily followed Ye Xiu.
For Huang Rong, it doesn't really matter what she does, what's important is that she can be by Ye Xiu's side.
So, Ye Xiu and Huang Rong started to wander around Jingzhou City. Soon, the two of them came to a rather lively street.
After a little inquiry, Ye Xiu and the others discovered that the reason why this place is so lively is entirely because Wan Zhenshan and Wanfu are in this street, and today is also the day when Wan Zhenshan celebrates his fiftieth birthday.
"Brother Xiu, let's go take a look too." Huang Rong became more energetic.
"Okay, since Ronger wants to go, let's go and have a look." Ye Xiu nodded and headed to Wanfu with Huang Rong.
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong did not have invitations, but after all, it was the birthday of Mr. Wan Zhenshan of Wan Mansion, and it was intended to be lively and festive. Even if there were no invitations, as long as they sent congratulatory gifts, they could enter Wan Mansion. It was just to entertain and
In terms of reception, it is not as good as those holding invitations.
Huang Rong handed over a few taels of silver and successfully walked into Wanfu with Ye Xiuyi.
After that, Wanfu seemed to be quite lively.
Even the excitement was no worse than the Hengshan Sect’s Golden Pen Washing Ceremony.
Of course, there is still a difference between the two. The guests from Liu Zhengfeng's side are stronger than those from Wanfu, both in terms of martial arts and reputation.
Many of the guests in Wanfu are not well-known people and their martial arts skills are not very high.
After entering Wanfu, Huang Rong led Ye Xiu around, as if she wanted to find something or get some interesting information.
Ye Xiu did not stop Huang Rong's behavior, and even cooperated with her to make mischief.
After all, in Ye Xiu's opinion, Wan Zhenshan is not a good person, and his martial arts skills are not threatening at all, so since Huang Rong is willing, Ye Xiu will accompany her.
"Eh?" Huang Rong and Ye Xiu turned around in a circle, and finally let out a strange "Eh?"
"What's wrong Ronger?" Ye Xiu asked curiously.
"When we entered the city yesterday, we saw three people dressed like farmers. I thought the three of them were coming to Wanfu, but I didn't expect that I walked around and didn't see them." Huang Rong explained.
road.
Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Maybe they haven't arrived yet - well, they are just three farmers from the countryside. Maybe they are not qualified to participate in Wan Zhenshan's fiftieth birthday. Maybe it's just a coincidence."
Hearing what Ye Xiu said, Huang Rong smiled strangely. Sometimes, Huang Rong found it very interesting that Ye Xiu knew clearly but pretended not to know.
Just like now, Ye Xiu clearly knew that those three people were Qi Changfa, Di Yun and Qi Fang, but he still pretended not to know anything to cooperate with her.
"Maybe." While Huang Rong found it amusing, she was also thinking about how to help Di Yun and Qi Fang, a pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks.
However, when Qi Changfa, dressed as a country farmer, came to Wanfu, Huang Rong and Ye Xiu became a little surprised because Qi Fang and Di Yun did not come to Wanfu with Qi Changfa.
"Weird." Ye Xiu couldn't help but muttered.
Huang Rong, who was beside Ye Xiu, moved her eyes and had a vague guess in her heart.
Huang Rong didn't know what happened to Ye Xiu's diary, she didn't know how many people would hold it, and she didn't know what the principle of diary distribution was.
However, since some things have changed beyond Ye Xiu's knowledge, then there is a high probability that the diary holder is responsible.
'So, it should be Qi Fang or Di Yun who got Brother Xiu's diary and chose not to come to Wanfu with Qi Changfa.' Huang Rong guessed in her heart.
Huang Rong had an answer in her mind, but Ye Xiu didn't, so he felt more and more strange. He even couldn't help but wonder, did something happen to Di Yun and Qi Fang?
But no matter what happened, Ye Xiu felt that it was a good thing that Di Yun did not follow Qi Changfa to Wanfu. Perhaps Di Yun's tragic fate changed from this moment on.
After Qi Changfa came to Wanfu, he started to perform, as if he had a good relationship with Wan Zhenshan. The two of them smiled and talked, as if they were very close.
In fact, both of them were thinking about how to plot against each other.
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong found this kind of performance interesting, so they watched it for a while.
However, Ye Xiu and Huang Rong only watched the exchange between Wan Zhenshan and Qi Changfa for a short time, and then they began to feel bored.
"This girl, I am Wan Gui, and my father is Wan Zhenshan. Do you know her name?" A man who looked a bit handsome saw Huang Rong, and his eyes lit up. He even ignored Ye Xiu next to Huang Rong and directly approached her.
Come here and strike up a conversation in a serious manner.
"Wan Gui?" Huang Rong looked at Wan Gui, then smiled and took Ye Xiu's arm: "His name? Let's see if my brother Xiu wants someone to tell you."
Hearing what Huang Rong said, Wan Gui seemed to have just seen Ye Xiu next to Huang Rong. After just one glance, Wan Gui frowned because he found that Ye Xiu was much prettier than him.
Wan Gui's face was gloomy, and he finally twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a stiff smile, his eyes faintly flashing cold light: "Wan Gui, who are you two?"
"I'm Li Xiuyuan, from Mount Wutai." Ye Xiu cupped his fists and made up a name. Huang Rong couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth when she heard Ye Xiu's name. She found it very interesting.
"I wonder if this girl is -" Wan Gui didn't care at all about Ye Xiu's self-reported family. Apart from the famous Monk Temple, there didn't seem to be any other powerful sects on Mount Wutai, so he turned his attention again.
Back to Huang Rong.
"Her name is Mu Tao, and she is from Mount Wutai like me." Ye Xiu said casually.
"That's right, we two grew up together and are childhood sweethearts. Once we return to Mount Wutai, we will -" Huang Rong added, but she didn't finish the last sentence as if she was too shy.
"It turns out to be Miss Mu Tao. Miss Mu Tao..." Wan Gui started to approach Huang Rong again, ignoring Ye Xiu again.
Wan Gui's appearance made Ye Xiu couldn't help but frown, and couldn't help but take a step sideways to block Wan Gui's face.
Wan Gui's smiling face turned gloomy again, he squinted his eyes, took a deep look at Ye Xiu, then turned and left.
With Wan Gui's virtue, if it weren't for the fact that Ye Xiu had to go rescue Ding Dian to get the Divine Illumination Scripture, it would be difficult to make too much noise before then, otherwise he would have to kick Wan Gui to death.
"Rong'er, you are so charming. If you look at Wan Gui like that, you are probably thinking of plotting against me." Ye Xiu said to Huang Rong with a smile.
"Rong'er doesn't care about Wan Gui's kind of toad." Huang Rong curled her lips, full of contempt for Wan Gui: "But brother Xiu, were you jealous just now?" Huang Rong looked at Ye Xiu with excitement.
"Jealous - that's right. After all, Ronger is so cute, and I don't like other toads getting close to Ronger."
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong talked to each other in whispers, and the relationship between the two became even better.
…
"You two young heroes, the banquet has already begun. Your seats have been arranged in the backyard. Please come with me." A servant came to Ye Xiu and Huang Rong.
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong looked at each other with smiles in their eyes: "Please lead the way."
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong followed the servants, but the route became more and more remote. Regarding this, Huang Rong and Ye Xiu acted as if they could not see anything.
Soon, the servants took Ye Xiu and Huang Rong to a particularly remote alley, and in this alley, several people headed by Wan Gui were looking at Ye Xiu and Huang Rong with sneers on their faces.
"I originally thought we needed to postpone it for a while, but I didn't expect them to be impatient." Ye Xiu ignored Wan Gui and the others, and then said to Huang Rong with a smile.
"Yes, the toads don't hide well, but they jump out to make people sick. You can just crush them to death." Huang Rong agreed with a smile.
Wan Gui originally wanted to say something, but he didn't expect Ye Xiu and Huang Rong to speak first, and they looked like they didn't take him seriously at all, which made Wan Gui extremely angry: "You are about to die, and yet -
—”
Snap——
Ye Xiu was not interested in listening to Wan Gui's threat at all. He directly flew up and kicked Wan Gui away. By the time Wan Gui's body hit the wall, his chest was sunken and he had no air in or out.
.
"Senior Brother Wan!!!" Wan Gui's senior brothers who came with Wan Gui couldn't help but change their faces when they saw that Wan Gui was kicked to death by Ye Xiu.
They even had fear in their hearts. On the one hand, because Wan Gui's father was dead, Wan Zhenshan would be angry with them. After all, as Wan Zhenshan's disciples, they knew that Wan Zhenshan was not a good person.
On the other hand, they were worried that Ye Xiu would kick Wan Gui to death. If Ye Xiu also had murderous intentions towards them, would they be able to escape from Ye Xiu's feet?
"you--"
One of Wan Gui's senior brothers was about to say something. Ye Xiu still didn't bother to listen, and still went straight to the attack.
One leg transformed into countless leg shadows, directly covering Wan Gui's senior brothers and even the servant who led the way.
Bang bang bang——
A row of corpses juxtaposed with Wan Gui looked really neat.
"Let's go Ronger, there's nothing good to see here." Ye Xiu said to Huang Rong.
"Okay, let's go."
Ye Xiu and Huang Rong paid no attention to the row of corpses on the ground.
Ye Xiu said before that since he was going to visit Ding Dian, it was not appropriate to make too much noise. That too much noise meant destroying the whole family of Wanfu.
But now that only Wan Gui and a few disciples are dead, compared to the whole family being wiped out, the matter is much smaller.
Even if Wan Zhenshan went to report the crime, it might not arouse Ling Tuisi's suspicion.
That's why Ye Xiu took action without hesitation. No, he kicked Wan Gui and the others directly to death.
After Ye Xiu and Huang Rong left.
Wan Zhenshan couldn't see his son for a long time and was a little angry, thinking where his son had gone. He just ordered his servants to find Wan Gui.
But later, the servants only found Wan Gui's body.
Seeing Wan Gui being killed, Wan Zhenshan almost vomited blood. On his fiftieth birthday, his son was killed.
Next, Wanfu naturally became extremely lively, but this liveliness had nothing to do with Ye Xiu and Huang Rong for the time being.
On the other side, Qi Fang had woken up. Seeing that her senior brother Di Yun was there, she felt somewhat safe, but she was still a little anxious about the diary.
Especially when Qi Fang thought about the diary, the black diary appeared in front of her out of thin air, which shocked Qi Fang, and her already pale face became even paler.
