Chapter 364: Another storm arises(2/2)
"You actually let an inexplicable woman go up the mountain and almost ruined my good deeds!"
"If I didn't show up on purpose and take away the man from Chang'an City, there might still be variables!"
Liu Wuyue's muttering made Dong Ming alert.
Qingjingji Temple?
An unknown woman?
Go away?
So, the masked female swordsman turned out to be Liu Wuyue!
And the one who led them to Taoling Village was also a female swordsman!
So... did Liu Wuyue deliberately let him and others know the real location of Yin Ruxian?
She knew from the beginning where Yin Ruxian was locked up?
At this time, another person walked in outside the door, it was Bai Yu, the sword attendant whom he had seen before.
"Master." Bai Yu bowed slightly.
Liu Wuyue nodded and said, "How are things going?"
Bai Yu quickly said: "The condition of Haopeng is very good."
"It's just that... there are some deficiencies in the offerings. If we want to refine enough Sanzhichong Pills, I'm afraid we still need the Qingjing Temple..."
Liu Wuyue seemed a little irritable, and the speed of moving the beads became much faster.
"Let's go to Qingjing Temple."
After saying that, the two finally left the Rakshasa Temple.
When everything around him became calm, Dong Ming looked at Chi Xiaoyun.
…
After a while, Chen Huang couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw everyone coming back with Chi Xiaoyun.
Chi Xiaoyun didn't hide it and said immediately:
"It seems that you are here to investigate some secret matters?"
Dong Ming poured a glass of water for Qingran:
"In the beginning, it was indeed because of the bone demon incident."
"But... as far as what happened tonight, it seems that you had another purpose in joining Yanyu Red Mansion?"
Chi Xiaoyun was silent for a moment, and then placed the account book he found in the Rakshasa Temple on the table.
What came into view were unfamiliar names, including their birthdays and horoscopes.
Take a closer look...they are all men.
"This is why I sneaked into the Yanyu Red Building and became the fourth floor owner."
Chi Xiaoyun sat down, with a sad look in his eyes, as if he was remembering a very painful memory.
"Actually... Yun Hongshang, Liu Wuyue, and Yin Ruxian, the three of them have known each other more or less decades ago."
"I was the only one who met the three of them two years ago."
"To be precise... I approached them deliberately."
"At that time, although the situation in Suichang County was not what it is now, everything was very normal."
"My parents are knight-errants who live in seclusion here. They gave birth to me and my younger brother. We usually rely on my father as a bodyguard to make a living."
"In terms of life, it's pretty good."
Dong Ming nodded.
Being an escort is a life-threatening job, so depending on how dangerous it is, it's not a problem to earn a few taels of silver in one trip.
But in today's world, a few taels of silver is already a very large amount.
"It's just...about five years ago, my father...died while transporting escorts."
On the side, the coffin buryer who gathered up his ink strokes asked:
"It's common for an escort to die by mistake."
"Just because of this, you suspect that you are in love with Yun Hongshang and others?"
Chi Xiaoyun shook his head:
"At first, my mother and I thought so."
"But when we discovered the wounds on daddy's body, we couldn't help but feel a little strange."
"It's a kind of...mark that seems to have been bitten by something, similar to a snake, but specious."
"But no matter what, we still buried daddy."
"After that, we lost our important source of income, and our life became difficult."
"It was at this time that my brother actually joined the bodyguard profession."
"That time... it was about three years ago!"
Seeing Chi Xiaoyun's increasingly sad expression, Dong Ming's eyebrows moved:
"Could it be that...your brother also..."
Chi Xiaoyun smiled bitterly and nodded: "My brother died during the second escort trip!"
