Daoist, I am not fragrant!

Chapter 8 Feather Shadow in the Villa

Although in Lin'an, the capital city, he was used to seeing all kinds of beauties, but Zhong Tang felt that this Yu Niang was indeed very attractive.

Perhaps it was because she was not from a famous official family, she didn't put much makeup on her face, when she walked quickly from a distance, her figure was light and graceful, her skirt sleeves fluttered in the wind, she looked like a nimble little bird.

Although Yu Niang is gentle and weak, her tone is anxious now, she repeatedly shook her head at Jiang Yubin and said, "Uncle had an accident in the afternoon, at least he woke up just now, now I heard that it was Xiaoxian and Fang Xi Also... how do you let me sit still, has anyone found it?"

Jiang Yubin knew that Yu Niang had been very close to Xiaoxian since she entered the villa, so after she got engaged, she made Xiaoxian a maid who served her personally. How could she dare to tell her the truth now, so she just said vaguely: "Fang Xi It has already been carried back to her own room, so Xiaoxian should be fine."

"Is that really the case?" Yu Niang heard the evasion in his words, her brows were still worried: "Where is Xiaoxian now, let me take a look..."

Jiang Yubin procrastinated again and kept trying to comfort him. Zhong Tang saw all this, and with an unknown smile on his lips, he walked behind the little maid with the lamp without a trace, taking advantage of no one's attention. , patted her shoulder lightly.

There was a red light in the little girl's pupils, and then disappeared without a trace, but she cried out in surprise: "What's wrong with the girl's hand?"

Yu Niang subconsciously covered her sleeves to hide, but there was no way to hide, Jiang Yubin immediately took her hand, but saw a two-inch-long bloodstain on the white wrist, which was extremely glaring.

"How did this happen, did something happen to you, Yu Niang?!"

Facing Jiang Yubin's question, Yu Niang quickly shook her head, forced a smile and said, "No, Second Young Master, don't worry... It was just that I was scratched by a flower branch when I just came here. I didn't realize it too much at the time." It hurts, so I don’t care, I don’t want to be like this.”

"It was really scratched by a flower branch?"

Jiang Yubin still held Yu Niang's hand distressedly, and hurriedly sent someone to fetch the wound medicine. Just when he was about to continue to question, several servants with lanterns ran over and passed on the message: "Young master, second young master, young master. Xian found it, it's in the pavilion by the water!"

Yu Niang took the opportunity to withdraw her hand, and kept urging: "Second Young Master, I'm really fine, let's see how that girl Xiaoxian is doing."

Jiang Yubin really couldn't resist her, so he had to ask his servants to light up a few more lanterns, and he himself helped Yu Niang to go there.

The second young master and the new wife left like this, and the other servants naturally also passed by, Zhong Tang wanted to continue mixing in the crowd, but after walking a few steps, he heard a cold voice behind him: "Follow me. "

Zhong Tang paused, turned around and saw Li Bizhi standing behind him with an expressionless face.

Could it be...he saw it just now?Zhong Tang weighed it in his heart, but there was no trace of guilt on his face, and he smiled at Li Bizhi again in his raised eyes: "If that's the case, then I will trouble the Taoist priest to continue to protect me."

Li Bizhi glanced at him lightly, then walked straight over.

Compared to Fang Xi who was frightened into madness, Xiaoxian was much better.

When Jiang Yubin and others arrived, Xiaoxian was still in a daze, but she didn't look like she had been injured.

What was unexpected was that the third young master Jiang Yufeng was also there, chatting with Xiaoxian to comfort her.

After everyone arrived, all attention was attracted by Xiaoxian, who kept asking her about the situation at that time, but Xiaoxian really didn't know anything, only remembering that her eyes suddenly went dark, and she was already approaching when she woke up again. Water in the kiosk.

"The maidservant was also afraid at first, but soon the third young master came over, and the maidservant is no longer afraid." Xiao Xian said gratefully while bowing to Jiang Yubin and Yu Niang.

"I just came back from the outside after drinking, and I happened to meet him." Jiang Yufeng stood on one side, with a slightly drunken face, not seeming to be fake.

Zhong Tang hugged Huang Li'er and followed Li Fangzhi, looking up at Jiang Yufeng, but the two looked away after a while, as if they had never met before.

Naturally, no one found out.

On the contrary, Jiang Yubin, after listening to his younger brother's words, sighed and advised, "There have been frequent accidents in the villa recently, so you shouldn't go out a few times."

Jiang Yufeng didn't care, knocked on the folding fan in his hand, and replied perfunctorily: "Second brother is right, Yufeng won't do it in the future."

Jiang Yubin is also used to the temper of the third brother, and this is not the time to talk about it, he shook his head, then walked up to Li Bizhi, and asked cautiously: "Master Dao, I don't know what happened today, did you find out?" What clues?"

Li Bizhi nodded, but he didn't say anything about Toba directly, but said: "Pin Dao hopes to talk to Jiang Yuanwai."

"This—" Jiang Yubin hesitated at first, and Yuanwai Jiang should have already fallen asleep at this time.

Zhong Tang rolled up his sleeves, his eyes slanted, and he saw that a servant was carefully and fearfully holding the wedding dress that had been picked up from the ground just now.So he put down the yellow raccoon in his arms, walked straight over, and brought the shattered blood-stained red dress directly in front of the second young master: "Second young master, although what happened tonight has not yet caused any deaths , but if it drags on, I'm afraid that the second life in Guishanzhuang will not be far away."

Jiang Yubin looked at the blood on the wedding gown, and his heart was filled with horror. He immediately asked Yu Niang to be sent back to the residence to be bandaged, and he personally led Li Bizhi and others to the main courtyard where Jiang Yuanwai was resting.

What's quite interesting is that the third young master Jiang Yufeng, he left simply last time, although he was still drunk this time, he also followed.

In the main room of the main courtyard, the lights have been re-lighted, and the old housekeeper Song, who just woke up after being frightened and fainted in the afternoon, is standing at the door. , the whole person is in a hurry, the Taoist priest, hurry up and go in."

Li Bizhi nodded slightly, but Steward Song's eyes fell on Zhong Tang, and he hesitated a little: "This is the shopkeeper Zhong of Wuweizhai, and I have to-"

As he was speaking, Zhong Tang calmly held the bloody coat in his hand, and tilted his head to look at Li Bizhi, obviously not intending to explain himself.

Li Bizhi looked sideways, and said lightly: "It's okay, let him in."

Zhong Tang squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and continued to follow behind Li Bizhi. Huang Li'er also followed behind him with the hem of his clothes in his mouth, and entered Jiang Yuan's outer room in a row.

After getting the news, Jiang Yuanwai was already wearing a coat, leaning on the couch very tiredly, and the young master Jiang Yurong also stood beside him with a face of reluctance.

Hearing the sound of them entering the door, Jiang Yuanwai stood up tremblingly, and was about to say something to Li Bizhi, but when he saw the bloody clothes in Zhong Tang's hands, he immediately became more and more horrified: "No, it's not that no one was killed. ?"

Li Bizhi didn't say a word, but Zhong Tang smiled knowingly, holding the bloody clothes in front of him on purpose, causing Jiang Yuanwai to back away again.

"At this point, Jiang Yuanwai, do you have anything else to say?" Li Bizhi glanced at his expression and asked in a cold voice.

"I've already told the Daoist all about what should be said that day, and now it's really gone." Jiang Yuanwai sighed again and again, his brows wrinkled into a ball.

"Really?" Li Bizhi looked into Jiang Yuanwai's eyes carefully, and asked so seriously for the first time.

Zhong Tang also followed him to look outside Jiang Yuan, but saw that he still gritted his teeth and shook his head, but the hand holding the teacup was trembling slightly.

Unexpectedly, Li Bizhi didn't say any more, stood up directly with his sword in his hands, and bowed to Member Jiang: "That's it, I'll forgive you for not being good at learning, and I can't see what's weird about your place, so farewell .”

"Daoist, Daoist," Jiang Yuanwai immediately panicked, and hurriedly got up to stop him, but in vain, Zhong Tang took advantage of the opportunity and moved sideways to hold the bloody clothes in front of him, causing Jiang Yuanwai to almost hit him directly. On the bloody coat.Startled, he backed away again and again.

Jiang Yurong had a gloating look on his face, as if he was eager to get up and say: "The Taoist priest is easy to leave." Only Jiang Yubin was a little bit more effective, and stopped Li Bizhi: "The Taoist priest stays, stays—"

The room was in chaos, Jiang Yuanwai only watched the bloody coat in Zhong Tang's hand dangling in front of his eyes, and finally couldn't hold back and sighed: "I said, I said it!"

Zhong Tang hooked the corners of his lips, squinted at Li Bizhi, saw Li Bizhi nodded at him, then put away his bloody clothes and took a few steps back, but his mouth was still unforgiving: "Jiang Yuanwai is getting old. , it is inevitable to forget some old things, but it is gratifying to be able to remember after such a commotion."

Member Jiang clutched his forehead and sat slumped on the couch. He didn't have the energy to distinguish Zhong Tang's words anymore, but waited until Li Bizhi urged him again: "Speak."

Then he began to talk: "This happened more than 30 years ago. That year, I just came to An to take the exam. Because I was robbed by bandits, I ran into the forest in a panic..."

"I walked day and night. I didn't know how long I walked. I didn't bring anything with me. I was so hungry that I almost swallowed the withered grass leaves on the ground. Seeing that people didn't go out, I was going to starve to death."

"But I suddenly found a bird's nest on the stubble of an old tree," Jiang Yuanwai covered his face, reluctant to recall the incident at that time: "I was really hungry at the time, and it took a lot of effort When I climbed up, I saw that the bird's nest was full of birds' eggs, so I just ate it raw without even thinking about it."

"It wasn't until I finished eating that I realized that there was a big bird with white feathers and yellow spots standing on the branch behind me, staring at me, staring at me... Then it yelled, the sound was very sad. I will never forget it in my life."

Zhong Tang looked down at the bloody coat in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking, Li Bizhi didn't interrupt him, and let Jiang Yuanwai continue talking.

"I was also sad at the time, so I knelt down and kowtowed to it three times, saying that I really had no other choice, and vowed that if we meet again in the future, there will be retribution—"

"Then father, have you reported it?" The third young master Jiang Yufeng, who had been drunk since arriving, leaned on the chair drunkenly, suddenly supported his body and asked in a daze.
