Chapter 57 Song Yue weighs 100,000 gold
Half an hour later.
Su Yuan walked into Xuanyun Pavilion with his hands in his pockets, walked slowly to Meng Yunqiao's desk, tapped the table with his fingers, and said in a calm voice:
"You two, let's go."
Meng Yunqiao and Nan Chu drank several pots of tea in the teahouse. When they saw Su Yuan finally came back, both of them had joy in their eyes.
Meng Yunqiao stood up unsteadily, holding onto the table. He grabbed Su Yuan's hand and walked out, saying:
"Come on, let's go back to the academy. If you don't come back soon, I'm going to die from drinking too much tea."
She and Nan Chu sat in silence, and could only keep drinking tea to hide their embarrassment.
Don't be fooled by Meng Yunqiao's usual smooth talk, but he is my sister's husband, so we must avoid suspicion!
Su Yuan was dragged away by her friend. She shook her head helplessly and turned to her husband and said:
"Nanchu, hurry up and catch up. I will send you home soon and then go to the academy."
Nan Chu blinked when he heard this, and quickly followed the two people in front of him and nodded:
"good."
The three of them got on the carriage and after sending Nan Chu back to the Su residence, Su Yuan and Meng Yunqiao returned to Tiande Academy.
Three days later.
Outside the window, the moonlight is everywhere, the trees are swaying, the night breeze blows gently, and the bamboos are swaying in the wind.
On the wall courtyard at the southwest corner of Tiande Academy, a blurry black shadow slowly climbed over the wall. It must have run out of strength halfway through and suddenly fell straight down, hitting the ground with a dull sound.
The room was pitch black.
Su Yuan, who was lying on the bed, heard the noise, opened his eyes alertly, and glanced at Meng Yunqiao who was sleeping soundly beside him.
She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then got out of bed and put on her shoes lightly. Then she took out a palm-sized luminous pearl from her sleeve that was emitting a bright afterglow.
He opened the wooden door in the light and walked out, then approached the wall in the southwest corner where the sound came from slowly and cautiously.
Su Yuan kept a distance of one meter and extended the night pearl over to illuminate the black human-shaped protrusion on the ground.
When she saw clearly what it was, she narrowed her eyes slightly in vigilance.
At the base of the wall covered with messy weeds, there was a man in black lying on his back with his chest slightly heaving and a big hole in his abdomen.
Su Yuan was so close that he could smell the smell of blood spreading in the air, as well as the sound of blood dripping onto the weeds and then sliding to the ground.
She looked over there dimly, her pair of dark eyes seemed to be thinking about something, revealing an unfathomable and profound look that was difficult to fathom.
After a moment, Su Yuan took out a dagger from his sleeve, unsheathed the scabbard to reveal the sharp blade, and slowly approached the man in black.
I put my finger under his nose and felt that he was still breathing faintly.
She shook her head regretfully, raised her eyebrows and clicked her tongue, her eyes moving meaningfully from the man in black to the haunted house next door.
Su Yuan stared at the bumpy and dilapidated wall, and suddenly smiled.
Why not throw it into a haunted house!
This person has no grudge against her, so there is no need to finish him off.
After making up his mind, Su Yuan disdainfully used one hand to lift the black-clothed man's fragile neck like a chicken, jumped over the wall, and landed steadily in the legendary gloomy and terrifying haunted house.
She casually glanced at the overgrown, dark and damp courtyard, and the dilapidated houses, and dragged the man in black inside.
"This is it."
After choosing a place, Su Yuan casually threw the man in black into the low and dilapidated west room. After wiping his fingers clean with a brocade handkerchief, he sighed and turned to walk out.
Unexpectedly, she felt a pulling force midway, grabbing the hem of her robe tightly, making it impossible for her to move her legs and walk.
Su Yuan frowned, turned around and looked down.
Only then did she realize that the man in black whom she had just left behind had stretched out his arm and grabbed the hem of her sky blue cotton robe.
Su Yuan raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he didn't intend to save anyone.
Instead, he squatted down and grabbed the black-clothed man's wrist, pressed on the acupoint and squeezed it. His white and slender hand suddenly lost its strength and slid down.
The man in black on the other side, Song Yuezhong, actually had a vague consciousness the whole time when he realized that someone was dragging him and was about to leave him behind.
The strong desire to survive enabled him to raise his arm with difficulty and grab the person who was about to leave, trying to save his own life.
Unexpectedly, the man was very cold-hearted. Not only did he not save him, but he pinched the acupoint on his wrist, aggravating the pain in his body and forcing him to let go.
It was also under this pain.
Song Yuezhong barely regained some consciousness. He slowly raised his heavy eyelids, stared at Su Yuan with hazy eyes, and said hoarsely with trembling lips:
"Save, save, me."
When Su Yuan saw that this person was awake, he shook his head helplessly, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and sneered:
"Why should I save someone who has nothing to do with me? On the contrary, if you hadn't opened your eyes, you might still have a chance of survival."
After saying that, Su Yuan clenched the dagger and planned to end Song Yuezhong's life.
There was nothing he could do, since he had seen his face.
To avoid leaving behind trouble, it is better to cut the weeds at their roots.
Song Yuezhong was very sensitive to murderous intent. When he realized that Su Yuan wanted to attack him, a sharp look flashed in his eyes. He said weakly:
"I can give you money, one hundred thousand taels of gold."
Su Yuan's eyes flashed with interest. He stopped and looked down at the people on the ground, smiling and saying:
"Can you give me 100,000 taels of gold?"
"How do I know you're not deceiving me in order to save your life?"
I could really give her one hundred thousand taels of gold.
It’s not that it can’t be saved!
Song Yuezhong's expression froze, and no emotion could be seen in his dark eyes. He spoke in pain and intermittently:
"My waist badge, you can take it to Xuanyun Pavilion, and you can take the gold."
Su Yuan's eyes flickered after hearing this. How could a teahouse in Xuanyun Pavilion have so much gold? With just a waist card, one could withdraw it.
She glanced at Song Yuezhong with a scrutinizing look.
It seems that this person’s identity is not simple!
After Su Yuan weighed the pros and cons in his mind, his brows relaxed and he looked at the person on the ground with a chuckle. After a moment, the look he gave him was intriguing.
She rummaged through her sleeves and took out an object with strange packaging. She squatted down and clamped Song Yuezhong's jaw with two jade-like fingers.
Without saying anything, he pried open his lips and poured a liquid that was like ink and glowed faintly into Song Yuezhong's mouth.
After finishing, Su Yuan looked at his face, smiled, pressed Song Yuezhong's lips with her fingertips, and said vaguely:
"Swallow it, otherwise how can I save you with peace of mind?"
Song Yuezhong felt the strange liquid in his mouth, and the look he shot at Su Yuan was like two sharp blades, cold and sharp, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and he said coldly:
"What did you feed me?"
Su Yuan withdrew his hand, glanced at him casually, and said in a nonchalant tone:
"It's nothing, just a chronic poison I prepared. Remember to come and get the antidote every month."
"If a man who can take out 100,000 taels of gold at any time is not prepared, and if he turns around and bites me, it will be a loss."
