Shuanghua's eyes widened slightly: "My Lord, aren't you going to rest? I'd better help you put it away first."

Wen Yuxi thought about it and realized that it was time to go to bed.

In the past, he would be playing ball outside with his friends at this time.

Alas, there was too little entertainment at night in ancient times, and I didn’t want to play anything.

Wen Yuxi untied the sachet from her waist and handed it to Shuanghua: "Put it with the clothes you're going to wear tomorrow."

"Yes, Lord Marquis." Shuanghua took it with both hands and turned into the bedroom.

The dinner was a bit salty.

Wen Xingyun sat on the bench, picked up the kettle on the table, poured a cup, and drank it all in one gulp.

"what....."

A panicked scream suddenly came from the inner room.

Wen Yuxi hurriedly put down the cup and rushed in, shouting as he walked, "Shuanghua, what's wrong?"

Shuanghua rushed out from inside and bumped into him in panic, frightened out of her face.

"Rat, my lord, there are rats in your room. They frightened me to death."

Shuanghua was so scared that her legs and feet went weak. She put her hands on Wen Yuxi's arms and didn't dare to let go.

Wen Yuxi smiled and patted her head to comfort her: "You rest here first, Lord Hou, I will go and take a look."

After saying that, he picked up Shuanghua and put her on the bench.

Shuanghua looked at him worriedly and said, "My Lord, why don't you call someone over? How could you do such a thing?"

Wen Yuxi tapped her forehead lightly and said with a stern face, "Your Majesty is also a human being. Why can't you do such a thing? Wait until I catch it and give it to you to vent your anger."

"Goodbye, my Lord. Be careful. Rats are poisonous."

Wen Yuxi gave her a relieved look.

Then he took up a lamp on the table and went into the inner room.

There were lights on in the room, but it was still a little dark.

Wen Yuxi walked around inside with the lamp but found nothing.

He opened the wardrobe and rummaged through it. The clothes were neatly arranged inside, with no signs of being bitten by mice.

Could it be that Shuanghua was dazzled?

"Shuanghua, where did you see the rat?"

Wen Yuxi shouted from inside the house.

At this time, Shuanghua poked her head in cautiously.

"My Lord, it's right at your feet. I just put the sachet away and was about to close the cabinet door when something suddenly pounced on me, jumped onto my legs, and then slid down my legs. I'm still scared now."

Wen Yuxi thought for a moment and then asked, "So you didn't see it was a rat, right?"

Shuanghua was stunned. "That's right, but what else could it be besides a mouse? I really can't think of it."

Wen Yuxi is not afraid of mice. He grew up in the countryside and his house was full of mice. He could hear them grinding their teeth when he slept at night. Sometimes he could also see mice climbing walls at night, or climbing from one wall to another along the electrical wires in the house.

"I understand, Shuanghua. It's getting late. You should go back first. I'll take care of this."

Probably because she was particularly afraid of mice, she didn't force herself this time and went out with a pale face.

Wen Yuxi heard the sound of Shuanghua closing the door.

Then he bent down and picked up something on the ground, a straw mouse.

???

Who is so bored as to put this thing in the house?

To scare him?

Wen Yuxi's heart tightened. Could it be that someone broke in?

This is also the reason why he sent Shuanghua away early.

Not sure if the weapon spirit could find out, so Wen Yuxi silently said in his heart: "Weapon spirit, please help me check if there is anyone in the room?"

He was answered with silence.

Wen Yuxi called a few more times, but the other party still did not respond. This made him suddenly remember that the spirit of the weapon would sometimes suddenly fall into a deep sleep due to the lack of spiritual energy.

Never mind, he'll do it himself.

Wen Yuxi stood up as if nothing had happened and left the inner room.

It's not even Si hour yet, and there are still people stealing things at this time?

He didn't even try on the clothes on the table to see if they fit, he just piled them together and stuffed them into the closet.

The sky outside the window was dark, the moon was covered by dark clouds, and darkness gradually spread. The stars, which were not very bright to begin with, now looked like frost-bitten eggplants, blinking occasionally. The house was silent.

Wen Yuxi asked a night watchman to fetch some water, and washed his face and brushed his teeth.

Then he called someone over and whispered, "Stand outside the eldest master's courtyard. If there's any movement, come and report to me immediately."

"But, my lord, you won't leave anyone behind?" The servant looked embarrassed.

Wen Yuxi didn't reply to his words, but suddenly said loudly: "Go back, my lord, I don't need anyone to wait on me."

The servant didn't insist anymore, closed the door, turned around and left.

Wen Yuxi rubbed his tired eyes, yawned, and blew out the light.

With a "bang", he fell onto the bed, tilted his head to one side, and fell into a doze.

Although his eyes were closed, his mind remained clear and his ears were almost erect.

If there really is someone hiding in the room, he will definitely jump out when he falls asleep.

Why did Wen Yuxi play this dangerous and unpredictable game of catching a turtle in a jar alone?

First, it's better to do it now than today. Although he hadn't noticed anything amiss in the house in the past few days, he couldn't help but worry that someone might be worried for a long time. If he told everyone now and asked the servants in the mansion to be more vigilant, he might alert the enemy.

As the saying goes, you don't have to worry about thieves stealing, you have to worry about thieves thinking about stealing. This time, we have really caught the culprit behind the crime, and we don't have to worry about it all day long.

Secondly, his body was made of ice lotus from the world of cultivation, so ordinary swords and guns could not hurt him.

The third reason is that he has not yet put himself in the right position and always feels that he is playing games with life.

I don’t know how long it took, so long that Wen Yuxi was about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, my head felt like it was pricked by a needle, and a sharp pain came from my temple.

His eyes snapped open as wide as they could.

I couldn't help but be stunned by the scene before me.

A man in black was stabbing him in the chest with a dagger.

The man had a demon mask on his face and was short in stature, but he was extremely brutal, powerful and fast in his attacks.

Before Wen Yuxi could react, she suddenly grabbed the man's hands.

But the man stabbed regardless.

Wen Yuxi was terrified, but she didn't show it on her face. At the critical moment, she finally grabbed the man's wrist with both hands.

He used all his strength and did not dare to relax for a moment.

The tip of the knife sank down little by little, and was about to cut through the clothes.

Wen Yuxi suddenly shouted, "Come and help me! I'm dying!"

When the man heard this, his body stiffened and he quickly turned around to look to the side.

A hint of cunning flashed in Wen Yuxi's eyes.

Right now!

He slid his hands down, clasped the man's hands tightly, turned suddenly towards the bed, and with a "bang", pressed the man under him.

The man was suddenly shocked and realized that he had been deceived. However, he had been shackled by Wen Yuxi and could not move at all.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart: "Fuck, is this a fucking cow? How can it be so strong?"

Wen Yuxi put his arm on the man's neck, pulled out the dagger and threw it aside.

Then he threatened viciously: "Tell me. Who sent you, and why did you want to kill me?"

The man's dark eyes showed no emotion. He couldn't breathe because his neck was pressed down, and he couldn't help coughing a few times.

"I can't breathe."

The sound was hoarse like footsteps walking on the ground, extremely unpleasant.

Wen Yuxi narrowed her eyes and watched him struggle coldly, her palms clenching tighter subconsciously: "Don't play any tricks on me, otherwise you will die an ugly death."

The man seemed to feel no pain and actually laughed heartily: "I thought the Marquis was a fool, but I was wrong. I was so confused. How could the son of Marshal Wen and the brother of the general be such a good-for-nothing?"

Seeing him talking about something else, Wen Yuxi couldn't help but frown, thinking about how to scare criminals in TV dramas. Suddenly, a gleam in his eyes, and he suddenly said: "It's not that I can't let you go, it depends on your sincerity."

The man in black sneered: "What if I don't tell you?"

Wen Yuxi smiled slightly. "I'm easy to talk to. If you don't tell me, I can't do anything to you. But you should also know that I recently bought a house in the suburbs. I raise hundreds of little cuties in it. They will definitely like you, who is so delicate and tender."

The man was startled and asked tentatively: "Little cutie is..."

Wen Yuxi whispered into the man's ear with a smile, "They are some common little snakes. Don't be afraid. I don't have any five-step snakes or cobras. These little snakes of mine only have one hobby, which is eating meat. Hahahahaha, what do you think? Have you thought about what to say?"

"You!" The man was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but curse: "Fuck your legs, Nana! If I have a chance to escape, I will grind you to pieces."

Wen Yuxi laughed heartily. "I love the rage of impotence. Come on, yell a little longer and lure my brother over. Then you'll be in a state of despair."

"Wen Yuxi, you're so perverted, but I like it."

The little spirit suddenly woke up at some point and happened to see this scene. He suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment that his son had grown up: "He looks a bit like my master."

Wen Yuxi couldn't help but roll his eyes. Your master looks like a big devil.

To be honest, I have never heard the little spirit talk about what kind of person his master is. When I have the chance, I will definitely chat with him about it.

Wen Yuxi has a delicate face and her eyes are curved when she smiles, as if they can speak.

But the man only felt that the person in front of him was a demon from hell.

Wen Yuxi continued to scare him: "Come, before my brother comes, let me see what you look like. If you are pleasing to my eye, hehe, I will give you medicine. You will always be by my side. If I tell you to go east, you dare not go west."

Wen Yuxi freed one hand and slowly reached for the man's mask.

"do not want!"

The man became visibly frightened and angry, and his body suddenly struggled violently. Wen Yuxi couldn't hold him down, and there was a slight risk of him escaping.

He couldn't help but laugh even more happily, but his tone gradually turned cold: "But what do you say? I want to watch it!"

Wen Yuxi pinched a corner of the mask with her fingertips and slowly lifted it up.

The man's eyes widened into the size of copper bells, and he suddenly shouted, "Ah ...

Then there was a "crunch" sound, and the teeth suddenly bit together.

broken!

Wen Yuxi was shocked and quickly let go of her hand to grab the man's chin.

But the man seemed determined to die, gritting his teeth and refusing to let go.

Wen Yuxi was just teasing him and trying to scare him into giving away the person behind the scenes. He never intended to kill anyone.

He was so scared that his voice was choked: "Don't die, I really scared you just now. Don't eat it, I will let you go now."

Wen Yuxi jumped off the bed and let him go completely.

But the man on the bed just spat out large mouthfuls of blood, his hands tightly clasped around his neck, the veins on his forehead and neck popping out like tree roots.

At this moment, the man suddenly stretched out a hand towards Wen Yuxi, staring at him intently, not knowing what he wanted to say.

Wen Yuxi was at a loss for a moment and couldn't help crying out: "Qi Ling, Qi Ling, please save him!"

The weapon spirit rolled its eyes and shouted, "Wen Yuxi, do you know what you are doing? He wants to kill you, and you want to save him? He is your enemy. If you hadn't been able to control him today, you would have died long ago. Why are you still trying to save him now?"

Wen Xingyun looked blankly at the man struggling in pain on the bed, shook his head, and whispered: "No, I'm not saving him, I'm investigating the person behind him."

The weapon spirit said helplessly: "Without spiritual energy, I can't save him."

What to do? What to do? He didn't want him to die.

Now he has become a murderer.

Wen Yuxi was stunned, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away.

The spirit of the weapon was a little worried about his stubbornness, so he shouted, "Wen Yuxi, cheer up. He committed suicide. It has nothing to do with you."

But he could never get over the hurdle in his heart: "But, I was the one who threatened him."

The little spirit sighed and said, "You just wanted to unmask him, and he wanted to die. What does it have to do with you?"

Wen Yuxi finally cheered up after hearing this.

Yes, he still didn't know the man's identity, and he hadn't seen the man's mask removed.

The man had stopped struggling at this point.

Wen Yuxi walked forward slowly.

He was a little scared and couldn't help turning half of his face away, while his other hand groped for his mask.

His hand touched a cold iron object and he was about to open it to take a look.

There was a sudden bang.

The person in front of me suddenly exploded like a firework.

The blood mist dissipated like smoke.

Wen Yuxi was very close to the man and his face was covered in blood.

He stood stiffly in front of the bed, his eyes staring blankly at the bed where only a pool of blood remained.

He fell to the ground with a bang and fell asleep!
