With a flattering smile on his face, Shen Qinan respectfully and flatteringly welcomed the woman in white into the hall. The woman in white walked like a weak willow swaying in the wind. Her graceful posture revealed a different kind of charm, which formed a sharp contrast with her holy and pure back, exceptionally tempting the desire in the bottom of people's hearts.
Watching them enter the hall one after another, Mengqi withdrew his gaze. He still did not remember who the woman in white was. It seemed that he was not familiar with her and had only met her once.
In short, she was quite dangerous. The Shen family was indeed a bit mysterious … He did not think too much about it. He planned to sneak into the backyard to find Miss Shen while the masters of the Shen family gathered together.
Tonight, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The silvery white light covered the bare trees with a layer of veil. With the cover of various buildings and rockery in the Shen garden, Mengqi wandered in the moonlight. His figure seemed to be there and not there. He continuously jumped under the eyes of the patrolling team several times, but they did not notice him.
Not long after, Mengqi sneaked into the backyard and looked for the servants and maids who were alone to find out where Miss Shen lived.
After a while, a pretty maid carrying a food box passed through the waterside pavilion and walked to the depths of the backyard. It seemed that because of the late night, she was worried that evil spirits would suddenly jump out from some dark corner. She looked quite scared, trembling slightly and muttering to herself, begging the Taoist Primogenitor and Buddha to bless her.
At this moment, her eyes suddenly widened because there was a figure in front of her. He was wearing a black robe, and there seemed to be some weapons hidden in the clothes on his back. On his face was a mask of "Heavenly Primogenitor", which was commonly seen in dramas and Taoist temples.
The maid opened her mouth wide and her eyes were full of horror. She almost fainted and was about to scream, but a pair of dark and deep eyes were suddenly reflected in her pupils.
The waterside pavilion disappeared, the bright moon disappeared, the winding corridor disappeared, and the mysterious man also disappeared. She only saw a pair of deep and intoxicating eyes. Her panic was relieved and she became warm and steady, as if she had returned to the arms of her mother.
"Do you know where Miss Shen lives?" Mengqi said in a mellow voice.
The maid was stunned and said, "Miss Shen? She lives in the Peony House in the backyard. Turn left ahead. "
"Very good." Meng Qi praised him and was ready to leave for the place.
The maid suddenly shed two lines of tears, as if she had finally found someone she could rely on. "Help! Help me! I don't want to be killed! "
"Why did you want to be killed?" Meng Qi stopped and frowned.
Could it be that the Shen family, as human traffickers, did not value the lives of their servants at all, and could beat and kill as they pleased?
"I, I don't know. Many, many sisters have disappeared without a trace. No, I, I saw it once. I saw Peony being strangled and dismembered by the young master!" The servant girl cried, and her body trembled more and more violently. It turned out that what she had been afraid of was not the evil ghost, but the master of the Shen family.
The Shen family was so cruel? With a single thought, Mengqi's aura changed. Like the vault of heaven and the earth, he observed the vicissitudes of life and the passing of time. He used the Supernatural Power of Shaking Heaven and Hitting Earth on the maid.
The sea of consciousness was dark and unclear, and many memory fragments were blurred. This was the state of a normal person. The most profound and unforgettable memory of the maid appeared in front of Mengqi.
He was born in a farmer's family and had been poor since he was young. He had helped his parents from a young age …
She entered the city to see the lanterns, got separated from her parents and brother, and was kidnapped …
After being whipped and homeless, she finally settled down and entered the Shen family …
The window was half open, and the smell of blood came out. Being timid, she decided to take a peek first, and then consider whether she should call the young master for the madam …
Half of an arm was hanging on the chair, and the broken flesh and bones were like a layer of carpet. A complete head was placed on the table. It was Peony. The young master was facing her, and his face was covered with blood and flesh, sliding down his face to the corner of his mouth …
The servant girl covered her eyes and squatted down, as if the last scene was a nightmare in her heart.
Was the young master of the Shen family a bloodthirsty killer? Meng Qi had always been filled with righteous indignation. He hated human traffickers to begin with. Coupled with this brutal incident, he decided to submit a secret report to the Six Fan School. The Shen family lived in a small town, so there was no way they could fight back.
He should take advantage of the situation when he could. There were many mysterious people in the Shen family. If he acted rashly, he would be alone, and it was very likely that he would be in trouble.
After comforting the servant girl with his spiritual invasion, Mengqi slipped into the garden and sneaked to the Peony House.
The cold wind blew, and the servant girl came to her senses. She only felt that her mind was clear, and she was no longer panicked.
"Did my prayer work? It seems, it seems to be the Heavenly Primogenitor …" The servant girl thought inexplicably. She picked up the food box and walked to the right, still muttering to herself and praying for blessings. But it was no longer like throwing stones at a bird. The Taoist Primogenitor, Buddha, and the Nine Holy Buddhas were all chanting, but focused on the Heavenly Primogenitor.
…
Inside the Peony House, several copper basins were burning with red charcoal, making the whole room as warm as spring, which was a sharp contrast with the cold wind outside.
A woman sat in front of the dressing table, holding her cheek with her hand. She seemed to be smiling, as if she was recalling the sweet past.
She didn't wear any makeup, but she was beautiful and lovely. Her hair was tied up in a woman's bun, which added a bit of mature charm. Her clothes were not thick, just like a summer dress, revealing pieces of pink and soft skin, which was eye-catching.
Suddenly, she felt something and looked at the mirror. She saw a figure in it, wearing a black robe and a mask. His momentum was lofty, ancient, and extremely mysterious!
"You'd better not shout." Her pupils shrank to the size of a needle tip. When she was about to call for help, she heard a calm voice.
Feeling the momentum and pressure of the person behind her, she recognized the mask of the Heavenly Primogenitor. Thinking of some rumors, the woman chose to cooperate without calling for help or doing anything that would cause misunderstanding.
"I've heard that Second Miss Shen has broken off her engagement. Sister-In-Law is alone and is still a virgin. Now that I've seen you today, I realize that there are many falsehoods in the world. Miss Shen, you are obviously married and full of love." 'Heavenly Primogenitor' Meng Qi did not ask directly and pretended to be chatting with her.
The woman in front of him was Second Miss Shen, Shen Ruoxuan. Her state was very contradictory to Lyu Jian's information. At first glance, she looked like a plump, lazy, and satisfied young woman.
Did she have an adulterer?
When Mengqi looked around, Shen Ruoxuan said angrily, "I don't need an outsider to talk about my own affairs. What's wrong with having a lover to relieve boredom? "
To relieve boredom … Mengqi really wanted to wipe his cold sweat. "In that case, why didn't you marry him? The childe of the Jia family has no bad record. Why would you rather die than marry him? It is rumoured that Young Lady Shen has a sweetheart, could it be that this lover is the person in your heart? "
"You brought the Jia family here to ask? I know they have been holding a grudge for a long time. " Shen Ruoxuan snorted coldly. "At that time, I had a sweetheart, and we were willing to die for each other. Naturally, I didn't like others. But now he has been dead for many years. No matter how painful it is, I have to get over it and start a new life."
She implied that the current lover was her former sweetheart.
When speaking, Shen Ruoxuan kept biting her lower lip. It seemed that she was a little nervous. Mengqi was keenly aware of this and said, "I see. Miss Shen, was your former sweetheart Jin Li?"
Although his voice was light, it was like thunder. Shen Ruoxuan's expression changed slightly. She was a little sweet and sad. She said in surprise, "How did you know?"
"I was entrusted by the Jin family to investigate the cause of his death." Mengqi replied calmly. His spirit spread to explore the room.
Things were a little weird.
Shen Ruoxuan's face was sad. "He, he died with my Third Uncle."
"Died with him?" Mengqi asked.
Looking at the expressionless mask of Heavenly Primogenitor, Shen Ruoxuan said with a smile and a cry, "My family didn't agree with our marriage. He wanted to elope with me, but was stopped by my Third Uncle. They had a conflict. After a fierce battle, both of them died. I failed to commit suicide and sat in this building for three years. I just came out recently."
Shen Ruoxuan's Third Uncle? Mengqi frowned slightly. There was no such information in Lyu Jian's information. Was he a hidden master of the Shen family? Could he die with Jin Li, who had the Heaven-man Connection?
Before he could ask, Shen Ruoxuan continued, "The Jin Family is quite powerful in Luoyang. My father was worried that this matter would lead to trouble, so he put the body in front of the Chen Family, who had a grudge against him, at night. He planned to find the people of the Six Fan School the next day to prove that the Chen Family was the murderer. Unexpectedly, the Chen Family was also alert and hid the body somewhere."
After saying that, she looked up at the Heavenly Primogenitor in front of her. She only saw the face that was common in dramas, without sadness or joy.
"It seems that the promise of life and death is no match for time. In just three years, you almost forgot Jin Li." She heard the voice of the Heavenly Primogenitor without discrimination or emotion.
"I sat in this building for three years. I have to live a happy life in the future. I just take it as an occasional feast." Shen Ruoxuan laughed at herself.
Meng Qi said calmly, "In my opinion, you're not doing it by chance, and you're not doing it just for the sake of living happily."
"What?" Shen Ruoxuan narrowed her eyes and stared at the mysterious man in front of her.
Mengqi's voice was calm and mellow. "With your strength of Seven or Eight Apertures and no internal injuries, why do you need so many charcoal copper basins?"
At this level of strength, normal cold could hardly affect people of Martial Arts. It was enough to put a copper plate with burning charcoal. There was no need to put them everywhere as if they were afraid of catching a cold.
Shen Ruoxuan's expression changed greatly. She suddenly stood up and asked, "What do you mean?"
She saw "Heavenly Primogenitor" raise his hand lightly and hit backward without turning his head. The airflow compressed and stirred up a strong wind, sweeping away the screen that isolated the inside and outside, revealing the big bed inside.
There was a baby lying on the bed. He was about seven or eight months old. His face was rosy and very cute.
The gauze around him seemed to be made of special materials, which could obviously weaken and block the spiritual strength.
"I, I …" Shen Ruoxuan stammered, "I want to leave him a successor."
"Really?" Mengqi was already 70 to 80 percent sure. He crushed the blood bead in his left hand.
A red light flowed and shrouded the baby. A faint red light appeared in his body.
"You really have the blood of the Jin family. Miss Shen, your performance just now was too stiff." Mengqi held back his pride and said in a calm tone.
His acting skills were not good enough!
How could it be so easy to forget a lover who was willing to die for him? Even if he could walk out of it, it would be easier for him to be accepted by his family than to find a lover!
Before Meng Qi could finish his sentence, a figure suddenly jumped down from the roof beam. The figure's body spun rapidly, and the strength of his palms seemed to have turned into a spiral. It was extremely terrifying, and it set off a tornado that shrouded Meng Qi and blocked his escape route.
Half-step Exterior Scenery!
The attacker had high cheekbones and a black mole under his right eyebrow. It was Jin Li!
In the face of the sudden attack, Mengqi seemed to have expected it. He stretched out his hands at the same time, and his ten fingers kept squirming to make a seal. It was like flowers blooming one after another, showing a sense of calmness and firmness.
In the attacker's eyes, the Heavenly Primogenitor suddenly became boundless and heavy, as if he had turned into the earth, which was hard to shake!
