Chapter 114 Jin丨Exclusive release by Jiang Wenxue
Xue Chen: [It starts again, why is he so forgetful?]
System: [Maybe the big cotton looks too scary.]
Xue Chen: [Not only Lu Xiaofeng, but also you, you also have a short memory.]
System: [What's wrong with me?]
Xue Chen: [Too much, I can't finish it in a short time, you should reflect on yourself first. 】
System: [……]
After leaving Lu Xiaofeng alone for a while, Yun Heyan said slowly: "If you are worried about me, we can separate now. My goal is Yu Heng, and it has nothing to do with you."
He was indifferent, and he didn't seem to be unhappy because of Lu Xiaofeng's words, but the meaning of this sentence completely disregarded the friendship of the past few days, which sounded a bit unkind.
Lu Xiaofeng didn't need to accompany Yun Heyan to Hejian Prefecture. He just had nothing to do, so he went with Yun Heyan.
But now, Lu Xiaofeng was involved in the conspiracy of the Ninth Master.
The Ninth Master hadn't gone far yet, and it was still time to catch up with him and find out his identity.
He has begun to doubt Yun Heyan. Whatever Yun Heyan does will make him doubt her. What is the point for the two of them to continue to get along?
This friendship should end here.
Lu Xiaofeng understood what Yun Heyan meant.
Lu Xiaofeng knew very well that Yun Heyan was not angry with him. She said that just to avoid trouble.
He was taciturn and not good at speaking. He did not like to defend himself, and was even more unwilling to spend energy to prove himself.
Lu Xiaofeng had a deeper understanding of his character and realized that there were some things that could not be said in front of Yun Heyan.
He immediately rescued: "I haven't finished what I said."
Yun Heyan: "You say."
Lu Xiaofeng: "I did doubt you, You are too mysterious, you are a martial arts master but you are not famous, and your quirk of drinking blood makes people want to explore. But it is also your quirk of drinking blood that makes me conclude that you are not sent by the Ninth Young Master. "
Yun Heyan: "Why?" "
Lu Xiaofeng: "Your appearance when you are ill cannot be faked. Even you can't control yourself, let alone others? Although I don't know what the purpose of the Ninth Young Master is, judging from what he has done so far, he should want me to help him, or directly recruit me. You are determined to go to Hejian Prefecture, but you have interrupted my interactions with him several times. "
Yun Heyan: "I didn't mean to."
Lu Xiaofeng: "I know."
Yun Heyan's illness is not something he can decide by himself. Moreover, he originally wanted to leave the city alone to survive the illness, and did not plan to take Lu Xiaofeng with him.
No matter from which aspect, Yun Heyan is innocent.
Yun Heyan: "So what is your original intention?"
"Since I have already promised you to accompany you to Hejian Prefecture, I will not go back on my word." Lu Xiaofeng held his hand, "Before revealing the true face of the Ninth Young Master, there are not many people I can trust."
Yun Heyan was a little moved: "I will not let you down."
Xue Chen: [Done!]
System: [Why do I feel that he has you? Wasn't Da Mian persuaded by Lu Xiaofeng? Or, do you plan to gain Lu Xiaofeng's trust first, and then stab him in the back?]
Xue Chen: [Am I that kind of person? Stupid system, look at my goal.]
System: [What is your goal? 】
Xue Chen:【Before I personally deal with Gong Jiu, try not to let Lu Xiaofeng come into contact with the power of the Nameless Island, and delay it as long as possible.】
The system remembered, and it was very surprised:【You want to kill Gong Jiu yourself?】
Xue Chen:【"Gong Jiu" must die, and Xue Lian must live.】
System:【I told you, a brother-con like you will definitely not be good to your brother...】
It said halfway and went back into the small dark room, and could only hear the host's vague heartbeat:【What the hell is brother-con, don't slander me.】
System:【...】
Lu Xiaofeng asked around and found that the Ninth Master had already left. He had to give up meeting the Ninth Master, and accompanied Yun Heyan to eat something, and continued to go to Hejian Prefecture.
Xue Chen's original body rested for a night, and also continued to move forward, rushing to Lizhou.
Baiyang Villa is located in the mountains and forests, covering a large area. The road up the mountain is relatively flat and can accommodate carriages, but there are slight bumps.
Xue Chen ordered his subordinates to notify them in advance to welcome them according to previous practice.
When they arrived in front of the villa, there were already two rows of people standing outside. An old man with white hair and beard stood in the front, looking into the distance, as if looking forward to Gong Jiu's arrival.
The carriage opened, Shaman got off first, and after she got off, Xue Chen came out.
The old man stepped forward quickly: "Mr. Jiu, why are you here in person?"
He was a little nervous.
Xue Chen judged from his language and expression that he and Gong Jiu had met before.
Xue Chen said coldly: "I can't come?"
Bai Zongjun said: "Of course you can come, please come in, Master Jiu. My son has just passed away for less than two months, and the manor is a little deserted. I hope you won't mind if we don't entertain you well."
Xue Chen: "I heard that you killed him with your own hands?"
Bai Zongjun was startled. He did not report the specific details of the matter, but Gong Jiu knew everything.
Sure enough, he seemed to be indifferent, but in fact he had been paying attention to himself silently. In this manor, even the confidants around him, may be Gong Jiu's people.
The owner of Baiyang Manor couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had been working diligently for the Master Jiu all these years, and he absolutely had no second thoughts. Even if it was his own son, he would kill him without mercy.
Bai Zongjun: "The Ninth Young Master is indeed well-informed. That kid is stubborn and refuses to surrender. He has unknowingly entangled the people in the villa and wants to compete for the position of the villa owner. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."
The system was released by Xue Chen last night. After hearing what Bai Zongjun said, it commented: [It doesn't sound like a good thing.]
Xue Chen: [People die for money and birds die for food. This is how the food chain works. You can't use this as a standard to evaluate a person's character.]
The system was about to praise him when it heard Xue Chen continue: [You think that smart people are not good people because your brain is not working well, right?]
System: [……]
It has learned its lesson this time and will not speak without thinking and say what is in its heart.
Bai Zongjun led Xue Chen into the manor gate and came to the main hall inside.
The young master of the manor had just passed away, and the white paper and lanterns in the manor had not been taken down. The whole manor was filled with a faint atmosphere of sadness, and there was a smell of smoke from burning paper money.
The young master of the manor was poisoned to death by his father when he was alive, but he received very thoughtful care after his death.
Xue Chen found it very interesting. He said to Bai Zongjun, "I will also burn incense for the young master to comfort his soul in heaven."
System: [Why do I feel something is strange...]
Xue Chen: [You little brain, don't think about it if you don't understand it. I will explain it to you when I have time.]
System: [If you don't ask now, I will forget it later. Wuwu, lend me some skill points, I want to improve my memory!]
Xue Chen: [Take it yourself.]
System: [Wuwuwuwuwu, you say it nicely, but how can I take it?]
Bai Zongjun is more and more in awe of Xue Chen.
He knows that the Ninth Master is not a normal person.
"Heng'er has been buried, the mourning hall has long been removed, and the tablet has been placed in the ancestral hall. If the Ninth Young Master wants to worship, he can only go there." The old man stretched out his left hand and made a "please" gesture. He pointed the way for Xue Chen.
Arriving at the Bai family's ancestral hall, Bai Zongjun handed over three incense sticks. Xue Chen took them, bowed three times towards the tablet of the young master, and inserted them in the incense burner.
He turned around and asked Shaman: "Do you want to worship?"
Shaman shook his head: "I can't."
Gong Jiu is really a terrible person. It was obviously him who forced people to death, but he could worship the dead so devoutly.
His endurance and his scheming are indeed not comparable to ordinary people.
At least Shaman can't do it.
After offering incense, Xue Chen and Bai Zongjun went to the side hall for guests. Bai Zongjun ordered people to bring some tea and snacks and dismissed all the servants.
Xue Chen also asked the others to leave, leaving only Shaman.
He said to Bai Zongjun: "Tell us everything you have done recently, don't leave out any details."
Bai Zongjun didn't understand, but still followed his request and told him what happened at the birthday banquet.
Xue Chen listened carefully and made sure that their words and deeds did not reveal the existence of the Nameless Island, and Lu Xiaofeng did not get any information from Baiyang Villa.
Xue Chen: [The culprit who exposed my brother turned out to be Da Mian.]
System: [Isn't that you?]
Xue Chen: [How can you blame me! It's all this old man's fault. How can he casually talk about such a secret thing as the Nameless Island!]
System: [Those assassins should all be his confidants, so they are not too casual. 】
Xue Chen: [You said that he was exposed by Lu Xiaofeng, and it would be fine, but he even wanted to kill people to silence them. If he hadn't sent those people over, wouldn't it be fine? He is really idle, how could he be so narrow-minded. 】
System: [……]You are not narrow-minded either.
Bai Zongjun saw Xue Chen's gloomy face, and he became more and more afraid.
He saw with his own eyes how cruel the methods of the Ninth Young Master were. If he wanted someone to die, there were hundreds of ways to kill him, and each of them could make people suffer.
Gong Jiu has a high tolerance for his subordinates. Ordinary minor mistakes will be let go lightly, but if the bottom line is touched, even a god will come and it will be difficult to save.
Bai Zongjun was very nervous. He really couldn't figure out what this young man was thinking. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked carefully: "But what did my subordinates do wrong?"
Xue Chen said coldly: "You didn't lie." When
Bai Zongjun heard this, he became more certain that Gong Jiu already knew the truth, and now the test was aimed at him!
He nodded repeatedly: "How could I have the guts to deceive the Ninth Master."
Xue Chen: "Don't you have the guts to deceive?"
Bai Zongjun felt something was wrong and kept recalling what he had said. He was about to add some details about the banquet when he heard the young master in white say coldly: "What did you do after Lu Xiaofeng left?"
"If it wasn't for Lu Xiaofeng, I would never have exposed it. These things are my family affairs, and Lu Xiaofeng really shouldn't have interfered. I was so angry that I sent thirty of my confidants to kill him. As long as Lu Xiaofeng died, I would spread rumors and reveal Heng'er's private patricide and treason, and I would definitely be able to clear my reputation!"
"Those thirty people are all your confidants?"
"Right! They will definitely do as I ordered, kill Lu Xiaofeng and return immediately, and won't reveal a single word. Please give me another chance, Master Jiu!"
Xue Chen: "Too late."
Bai Zongjun was stunned: "Too late?"
Xue Chen: "Not only were they restrained, but even I was exposed. I have worked hard to hide for so many years, but I lost so easily. How do you think I should punish you?"
Bai Zongjun: "This is impossible! They have been with me since they were young and were raised by me. I am like their biological father! Master Jiu, are you mistaken? Maybe someone else exposed you. It is impossible that my people leaked it!"
"There are thirty people." Xue Chen asked, "Shaman, do you think thirty people are not enough?"
Bai Zongjun didn't know Shaman, but he knew that this girl must be the confidant of the Ninth Master, so he brought her with him. He looked at Shaman expectantly, hoping that she could say a few good words for him.
Shaman: "If we take a small boat, at least three boats will be needed to carry all of them, which is definitely not a small number."
Bai Zongjun was as sad as if he had lost his parents.
Xue Chen: "If he is handed over to you to deal with, what will you do?"
Shaman: "Kill him, and then lock up all the people who have seen you in Baiyang Villa, or take them to other places. Send trustworthy people to take over Baiyang Villa, select a puppet who is easy to control to be the owner, and the actual power of life and death will be left to you."
Xue Chen: "I thought you would kill all the people who know about it."
Shaman: "That's you."
Xue Chen seemed to be in a good mood, his cold expression eased a little, and he looked at her with some encouragement: "Then do as you say, and all the affairs of Baiyang Villa will be handled by you in the future."
Shaman: "Me?"
In the past few days with Gong Jiu, she already had some guesses, knowing that Gong Jiu might want to train her. But when she really got the power, she still found it unbelievable.
It was just like a dream.
Once she had power outside, even if she returned to the Nameless Island, she would no longer be an idle person supported by Gong Jiu. She could communicate with the outside world, and she could maintain her dignity when getting along with beef soup.
She didn't like the previous days.
In order to survive, she completely gave up her dignity and did things she didn't want to do. Every day she lived on the island, she would hate this world a little more.
She even thought about jumping into the sea to seek freedom, but she still hadn't given up her hope for the future, so she didn't take that step.
And now, what she has been looking forward to seems to be coming.
Xue Chen looked at Bai Zongjun indifferently, and said to Shaman: "Then let's start from the first step."
Shaman looked at Bai Zongjun.
Bai Zongjun trembled with fear, and a stream of liquid flowed out from between his buttocks: "Mr. Jiu, Mr. Jiu, please forgive me... I know I was wrong, and I will never tell anyone about you again..."
Xue Chen asked Shaman: "How is the style of Baiyang Villa compared to the island?"
Shaman replied coldly: "The villa is magnificent, even the bricks for paving the road are huge pieces of white marble. There was almost no gap. How can the Nameless Island compare to the Baiyang Villa? "
Xue Chen nodded: "This mountain is very high."
Shaman took out the whip, stretched out her arm and swung it, making a clear "snap" sound. She injected her internal force into the whip. The tip of the whip was as hard as a blade, piercing straight into the old man's heart, bringing out several pieces of broken internal organs, reducing the pain to a minimum.
She put away the whip and looked at Gong Jiu.
This man who always behaved very coldly, now had a very pale face. He stared at himself, just like every time he asked himself to whip him before.
But this time, for some reason, Shaman seemed to vaguely feel Gong Jiu's fear.
But how could this madman be afraid?
Obviously he was so eager to be whipped, and he had spent many days and nights, and even days, on the Nameless Island like this.
No one knew better than Shaman what he was expecting.
Shaman raised his hand, and the whip hit the man.
Xue Chen's chest suddenly hurt, and blood gradually seeped out. He reacted in time and retracted the cry of pain that was about to overflow from his mouth.
Xue Chen: [System, so miserable.]
System: [Oh, so miserable.]
Xue Chen: [She didn't even ask in advance this time!]
System: [Didn't you say that you would tell Shaman the truth? Tell her now, otherwise she will whip you again. Hee... It will be troublesome if she gets used to it.]
Xue Chen was alert: [? Xue Chen saw that
Shaman wanted to whip him again, so he didn't have the time to deal with the system and locked him in the small dark room.
He didn't need to use his power this time, his eyes naturally turned red. He glared at Shaman and said in a hoarse voice, "Put it down!"
Shaman put away the whip and looked at him quietly.
Xue Chen: "From now on, you are not allowed to whip me without my permission."
"I don't want to do such a thing." Shaman said coldly, and looked at him puzzledly: "It has been nearly ten days since you returned to the island."
Xue Chen sneered: "So what?"
Shaman looked at the blood on the white clothes: "Your wound is still bleeding, why don't you stop the bleeding first?"
Xue Chen laughed: "What do you think?"
"You are not Gong Jiu." Shaman concluded calmly, "Who are you? Why do you pretend to be Gong Jiu?"
Xue Chen continued to ask: "What do you think?"
Shaman: "You are very familiar with Gong Jiu. If you hadn't been avoiding being whipped, I might not be able to tell the difference. You should be someone around Gong Jiu. He asked you to disguise yourself like this and come back to replace him?" This site
