Chapter 337 Who Killed Him?
A moment later.
Master Jian came, along with his brothers and sisters, and their children. It was a large group, and it was obvious that the Jian family had many descendants.
The first one was an old lady of about sixty years old. She was dressed in exquisite and luxurious clothes, wearing high-quality jadeite. She was graceful and noble, and was no less elegant than the old ladies of the powerful families in the capital.
"Mother, let me help you." Mr. Jian wanted to help the old lady.
"I'm not old yet. You should take the second, third and fourth wives to entertain the guests. Tomorrow is a grand event for the Jian family. We must not neglect the guests." The old lady advised.
"Yes, son, I'll go right away." Master Jian said with a smile.
Immediately following.
Mr. Jian took the second, third and fourth wives to greet the guests at each table.
Jiang Yunxi looked at the old lady. She had a compassionate face. He could not see any cause and effect or other messy aura on her. There was nothing bad about the four sons of the Jian family.
It’s just that some people have some sickness in their bodies, which is normal. Many of the guests here also have sickness in their bodies. They probably all come here to seek medicine.
"Welcome to the Jian family. When you come here, just treat it as your own home and enjoy eating, drinking and having fun. Tomorrow we, the Jian family, will refine the first batch of elixirs of immortality. I hope you will witness it together." Master Jian said with a smile as he looked at Jiang Yunxi and others.
"Congratulations to the Jian family. We are indeed very interested in the elixir of immortality." Jiang Yunxi said. They went to the medicine refining area in the afternoon and it was guarded by someone.
She also saw various hidden weapons placed around. She thought that the medicine-making building must be full of traps. Anyone who entered without familiarity would be shot to pieces.
"You'll see it tomorrow. Enjoy the dinner later." Master Jian couldn't help but look at them. They were obviously rich or noble.
"Thank you, Jian family, for your hospitality." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
"It's my pleasure. Sorry to bother you so much." Mr. Jian said politely, and the group went to greet the guests at other tables.
After seeing them leave, Zhan Luochen whispered, "I feel like tonight is a Hongmen Banquet. Let's eat our fill first, and then we can start slaughtering."
The corner of Jiang Jingyan's mouth twitched slightly, "You crow mouth, stop talking."
Zhan Luochen looked at him with disdain and said proudly, "With my uncle and your sister here, what are you afraid of?"
"You're right." Jiang Jingyan agreed very much.
A moment.
The dinner has begun.
"Let me try it first to see if it's poisoned." Tian Quan said as he grabbed the largest chicken leg.
Everyone: “…”
After Tian Quan finished gnawing on the chicken leg, he said with a satisfied look on his face, "It's delicious, really delicious. I've never eaten anything so delicious. Come on, eat it. It's not poisonous."
"If it tastes good, eat more." Jiang Yunxi said.
"That's right. Maybe there won't be another meal after this one." Tian Quan said and picked up another chicken leg. He knew that he didn't have much time left.
After he finished speaking, everyone felt a little uncomfortable.
They are not like Yu Shuanghua, who has done unscrupulous things. On the contrary, they all do good deeds. However, in order to break the net of heaven and earth, they must die as the points of the formation.
"Oh, don't be sad. This period of time is the happiest time of my life since I transformed. I am very satisfied, really." Tianquan said with a smile.
He meant what he said.
Although they sometimes teased him, he was still very happy.
"That's right, all good things must come to an end." Jinxiu had a gentle smile on her face. When she was in Jiangzhou before, she was alone.
But after Jiang Yunxi left, her life began to become colorful and no longer monotonous.
This period of time was the happiest time in her life, that was enough.
"We are the points of the formation. It's great to be able to transform and enjoy it for a while." Yaoguang is very open-minded. She is lucky to have met the villagers of Daxing Village.
But she blamed herself for harming them. Fortunately, Jiang Yunxi helped them and gave them a good next life.
Out of this favor, she must help her break the formation.
"I was originally a lonely ghost, but now that I have taken revenge, I have no attachment to the world anymore. These past few days, I have experienced a life I have never had before, and I am already very content." Yuejian smiled faintly.
She had long been prepared to disappear completely.
Being able to transform is already a blessing from God, so how can I be too greedy?
Everyone felt bad when they heard what they said. Although they no longer had any regrets, they were still human beings with flesh and blood and emotions, and they had been together for a while anyway.
"Let's eat and drink well tonight and don't think about anything else." Jiang Yunxi didn't want to think too much, although that day would come sooner or later.
Everyone picked up their chopsticks and picked up their favorite food. The Jian family also sent wine. Zhan Luochen poured a glass for everyone. Of course, Mo Mo and Mian Mian didn't get any, so they drank soup.
The atmosphere of the entire dinner was very good. The guests were all talking and laughing, looking forward to tomorrow's elixir of life.
At the end of the banquet.
Jiang Yunxi and his group returned to the courtyard where they lived.
"You can sleep well tonight, I will keep watch." Qian Heng said.
"Let Yuejian and I do it. We don't need to sleep. You've had some wine, so go and rest." Jinxiu winked at her. She and Yuejian were the most suitable people to keep watch all night.
Qianheng thought about it and said, "Okay."
When she woke up, she went out to take their place on the night watch.
Jiang Yun didn't say anything. She had to go out again later to rescue the six infant spirits.
Just as everyone was about to rest, there was a noise outside.
The noise attracted everyone to open the door and go outside.
Jiang Yunxi hadn't planned to sleep, but when she heard the noise, she was the first to rush out.
"I don't know what happened. It sounded like someone died." Jinxiu looked at her after seeing her come out.
"I'll go take a look." Yuejian said and left.
At this time, other people also came out.
"Let's go and take a look." Jiang Yunxi said. There was still noise outside, and it seemed that someone had really died.
The group quickly walked towards the place where the noise came from, and saw that the garden was full of people, all whispering and discussing.
"Excuse me, what happened to the Jian family?" Jiang Yunxi walked towards the people who were nearby.
"Someone's dead." The middle-aged man said solemnly.
Zhan Luochen's eyes widened. Has the Jian family's hunting operation begun? They haven't even gone to bed yet. "Who died? Was it a guest on the island?"
The middle-aged man shook his head. "It's not a guest. It's Master Jian who died. I heard that his heart was dug out while he was sitting at the desk. I don't know who did it."
Zhan Luochen was shocked and couldn't believe it: "Master Jian is dead?"
During the meal, he came to their table and greeted them with a smile. Unexpectedly, the first meeting was also the last one. Who killed him?
Jiang Yunxi was surprised. There was an inexplicable weirdness in the Jian family. She thought something would happen to one of the guests, but she didn't expect that the first person to die would be Master Jian.
"Oh no, someone died again. The second master of the Jian family also had his heart dug out." Not far away, a panicked voice came from far away.
Everyone: “…”
"Let's go and take a look." Jiang Yunxi wanted to see the corpse and, by the way, see if the souls of Master Jian and Second Master Jian were there.
When the people around saw them leaving, they followed them.
Jiang Yunxi was originally worried that the soul of the deceased would be taken away, but he didn't expect that Mr. Jian's soul was in his house, tied with a soul-locking rope.
