It's not what we thought, so what else could it be! Oliver's thoughts ran wild, and his imagination expanded infinitely.
Shen Qianfeng resisted the urge to pat him on the head.
"Otherwise we can discuss it again tomorrow morning." Asher decisively pulled Oliver to his feet, "There's no rush for this night."
"Sit down!" Ye Jin stood at the bedroom door with murderous intent.
Shen Xiaoshou's legs went weak. Why was she roaring for no reason? His sister-in-law was really fierce.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business." Shen Qianfeng was in a state of panic. "We actually finished investigating the sword-making room a long time ago, but we encountered some accidents on the way back, so we were delayed until now."
"What accident?" Oliver asked curiously.
Ye Jin floated back to the bedroom proudly.
Oliver looked embarrassed, I was clearly asking a reasonable question.
Shen Qianfeng said, "While passing by the woods, we happened to encounter two servants having a private meeting. In order to avoid being discovered, we had to hide in the trees."
Asher:...
Oliver:...
So in the middle of the night, his brother and sister-in-law hid in a tree and watched the entire 18+ live version?
Although he is not a wild partner, he is still awesome.
Shen Qianfeng was helpless, "What are you looking at me with?"
Asher coughed, "Okay, let's get down to business. What's the problem with the sword-making room?"
Shen Qianfeng roughly told him what he and Ye Jin had concluded.
"Swordsmith?" Asher touched his chin, "That's right, I've never heard Feng Yunlie mention these people."
"It's not easy to hide fifty or sixty people." Shen Qianfeng said, "Even if you hide them, there will definitely be clues left behind."
Asher was thoughtful as he opened the map drawn by the secret guards. "Most of the courtyards in Baijian Villa are small and exquisite. The courtyard we are in now is already the largest. I haven't found any place that can accommodate fifty or sixty people."
"That makes even more sense." Shen Qianfeng said, "According to convention, people who are doing the same thing should live together. Firstly, it is easier to discuss together. Secondly, they have the same routine of work and rest, so living together can help them take care of each other. Unless they are married, they are rarely scattered."
"Could it be a feud between the swordsmiths?" Oliver guessed.
Shen Qianfeng shook his head, "The sword-making process is extremely complicated and cannot be completed by one person alone. It requires division of labor and close cooperation to forge the best sword. It is not acceptable if any link is unfamiliar, let alone conflicts."
"Actually, although there are many courtyards in Baijian Villa, not all of them are inhabited by people." Asher clicked on the map, "Everything with a red dot on it is empty. In addition, the handymen all live in the same room, so in fact, there are no Not hard to find."
"First send secret guards to check who lives in these houses." Shen Qianfeng said, "It would be best if we could find the swordsmith, but I estimate that nine times out of ten he won't be able to find it. Anyway, go out first As a result, we will discuss the next step."
Asher nodded, "That's exactly what I meant."
"Then it's settled." Shen Qianfeng said, "Starting tomorrow night, we will thoroughly check this villa again."
Oliver yawned.
Asher laughed, "Are you sleepy?"
"Let's go back and rest first." Shen Qianfeng said, "It's getting late."
Oliver nodded and originally wanted to go say hello to his sister-in-law, but was taken away by Asher.
"You should at least say something." Oliver protested.
"What's there to say?" Asher closed the door, "He obviously ate explosives tonight, why bother looking for trouble?"
Oliver said from the bottom of his heart, "Big brother will be miserable."
"Never mind him." Asher pinched his cheek, "You are not allowed to learn from Ye Jin."
"That's not necessarily true." Shen Xiaoshou grunted, "I might let you sleep in the woodshed." Very cold.
Asher was amused, picked him up and threw him on the bed.
The two of them were laughing and joking, the secret guard of Chaiying Palace was clicking his tongue on the roof, and my wife’s voice was simply soft.
The secret guard of Riyue Villa was lying on the rooftop opposite, looking at the stars with his face paralyzed.
The secret guard of Zhuiying Palace casually threw two jujubes over.
Sun and Moon Villa secret guard:...
The secret guards of Shadow Chaser Palace have bright eyes and are ready to welcome their friends.
The secret guard of Sun Moon Villa continued to look at the stars.
Shadow Chaser Palace Secret Guard: ...
It was extremely disappointing that he didn't rush over in anger.
Starting from the second night, the secret guards of Sun Moon Villa began to search everywhere in the villa, trying to find the residence of the swordsmith. The secret guards of Zhuiying Palace also began to walk the streets at the foot of the mountain, drinking tea and eating melon seeds. In a short time, they became one with the people of Zitong Town, chatting and laughing. They successfully upgraded from a mascot of the Jianghu to a folk mascot, and were very likable. As a result, the efficiency of work was naturally very high. Before the secret guards of Sun Moon Villa could find any useful information, the secret guards of Zhuiying Palace had already discovered many secrets hidden in Zitong Town.
"Don't be discouraged." As a caring little cotton pants, the shadow palace guard sincerely comforted his good friend, "We have always had confidence in you."
The secret guard of Riyue Villa turned around and left the room with a stern look on his face.
"Tomorrow we will go to the foot of the mountain to have dinner together." The secret guard of Zhuiying Palace was still stretching his neck and calling, very enthusiastic.
The secret guards of Sun Moon Villa really wanted to beat someone up.
"What did you find out?" Asher asked.
"Here." The secret guard handed over a large pile of paper with both hands.
"Wow, there are so many." Oliver was surprised.
"That's right." The secret guard puffed out his chest proudly, we are really capable.
Asher flipped through two pages, then frowned and said, "Tailor Wang's wife is having an affair with Tailor Li. Do you need to investigate this?"
Oliver choked on her tea.
The secret guards were startled and all came over to take a look. Then they quickly took out another stack of papers from their arms and quickly replaced the things in Asher's hand. They smiled innocently and said, "It's the wrong way around. This is it."
"What was that just now?" Oliver asked.
The secret guard coughed and said, "I also heard it from the people's mouths. In order to make a cliché, they always talk all over the place. If they can't get straight to the point."
"That's true." Oliver nodded, but he was still confused, "Then why do you still write it down?"
Secret Guard:...
"Speak!" Asher's voice was stern.
The palace master is really fierce. The secret guard had no choice but to say, "I'll find a chance to write it into a story and sell it to the bookstore owner."
Oliver:...
While carrying out your mission, you also don't forget to make money reasonably. You really deserve to be from the Zhuiying Palace.
Asher turned over the page in his hand, and then asked, "Someone disappears every year?"
"Yes." Speaking of this, the secret guard stopped teasing, "It has been seven years in a row, and three to five adult men disappear every year."
"Is there any report to the official?" Asher asked.
The secret guard shook his head. "It was reported, and the government did send people to investigate, but it was always a lot of noise but little action. The people also formed a team to search in the mountains, but there was still no result. Later, a rumor started in the city that the men who disappeared were dragged into the bottomless pool because they accidentally offended the river god."
"Can you believe this?" Oliver shook his head.
"Young Master, don't mention it. After this rumor came out, the family members of the missing men recalled carefully and it seemed that they could still find out what happened to the river god. So they all went to the temple to burn incense in fear, hoping that their families would feel better down there. "Don't be tortured anymore." An Wei said, "Purple Copper Town is not prosperous, but the River Temple is extremely splendid. I think it's for this reason."
"It's just inner demons causing trouble." Asher said, "The people in the water town are always by the river whether they are working or chatting. Washing dirt in the water is considered to be against the river god, and speaking foul language by the river is also considered to be against the river god. , If you put it this way, Ling'er accidentally dropped a rice dumpling leaf into the river, which can be said to be a collision with the river god. As long as you think hard, you can always find one or two things. "
"It's a pity that it took too long and we can't find out the source of the rumors." The secret guard said, "Otherwise, we might be able to find some clues."
"Leave these for me to read slowly." Asher put the paper in his hand on the table, "I have worked hard these days."
The secret guards all expressed that it was not hard work and it was very relaxing to chat and so on!
The friends at Riyue Villa are the ones who work really hard, staying up day and night, I just can’t help but want to embroider a banner for them!
After dinner, Shen Qianfeng finished reading the pile of messages.
"What do you think?" Asher asked him.
"Nine out of ten cases have something to do with Jianjian Villa." Shen Qianfeng said, "Otherwise, what kind of trafficker would kidnap a young man?"
"Every year, they disappear in September and October." Asher said, "Except this year."
"Is it because we are here again?" Shen Qianfeng raised his eyebrows.
Asher nodded, "It should be."
"Could it be that the men who disappeared were the puppets we saw that night?" Oliver had a flash of inspiration.
"I'm thinking about it too." Asher pinched his nose, "There is a clear connection between the minds."
Shen Xiaoshou smiled.
Ye Jin was speechless. They can do this even when we are discussing serious matters. How can you guys still do this?
"The secret guards searched all night, but there was no news about the swordsmith or the puppeteer." Shen Qianfeng said, "Another way of thinking is that Feng Yunlie would capture young men from the foot of the mountain in September and October every year and then turn them into puppet swordsmiths. This year, due to our uninvited arrival, Feng Yunlie could no longer use the puppeteers to forge swords, so he had to temporarily close the sword kiln, which attracted all the major sects to come to collect the money."
"Why don't we go and test Feng Yunlie tomorrow?" Asher said, "Now that we are guests at Baijian Villa, it's understandable that we can see some sword-making techniques."
"I'll go." Ye Jin said.
"Yeah." Oliver nodded. His sister-in-law had a lot of free time these days. She only wandered around and played with fur balls. It was normal to want to have some fun.
"Master Fengzhuang." The voice of the secret guard came from outside.
Oliver quickly lay back on the bed.
Asher stood up and opened the door, and saw four servants walking in holding a lot of boxes, and Feng Yunlie himself was holding a jar.
"What does the owner of the manor mean?" Asher asked.
"Mr. Shen is ill in bed, and I am worried about him." Feng Yunlie said, "So I sent people to search for some tonic medicines so that Mr. Shen can recover soon."
Asher said, "The owner of the village is so polite."
"As long as the young master can get better quickly, it's worth spending more money." Feng Yunlie's words came from his heart. He just wanted these people to leave quickly, even if it meant giving up half of his family wealth.
"Thank you, Lord Feng." Oliver also leaned on the bed and smiled weakly.
Feng Yunlie pretended to be concerned and then took the others to leave. Ye Jin looked at all the medicinal materials at the table, then raised his eyebrows and said, "I've made a profit now."
"Huh?" Shen Qianfeng was puzzled.
"They are all the best health-preserving medicines. You may not be able to buy them even if you have money." Ye Jin opened the small jar. "This is Qubingsan. If you have a common headache or fever, just smell it and it will relieve most of the symptoms. If you take a spoonful every day, your physical condition will get much better."
Asher smiled and said, "Feng Yunlie is really generous this time."
"It's no use being rude." Ye Jin closed the lid. "As long as we're here, he won't be able to open the kiln to forge swords. The orders are piling up. Now there are only three or five leaders making trouble. If more than ten or twenty come together in the future, I'm afraid no matter how many secrets there are, they won't be able to be hidden."
Oliver sighed in bed, discussing the necessity for Taobao store owners to deliver goods in a timely manner.
"How do you plan to talk to him tomorrow?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
"It's natural to just say it directly, there's no need to beat around the bush."   Ye Jin said, "Just like if someone visits Qionghua Valley, it's normal for them to want to visit the medicinal fields. How can I refuse?"
Asher smiled and said, "The heads come one after another to ask for accounts, and you have to go join in the fun. I'm afraid it will give him a headache tomorrow."
Shen Xiaoshou sighed with regret, it was such a pity that he couldn't personally participate in such an action.
Just as Asher expected, at noon the next day, after Feng Yunlie sent away a sect leader who came to ask for the sword, he was sitting at the table drinking herbal tea to relieve his internal heat, when suddenly he saw Ye Jin walk in holding the little phoenix.
"Valley Master Ye." Feng Yunlie stood up quickly, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's nothing serious." Ye Jin smiled, "I'm free and want to go see the sword-making room in the villa. Is it possible?"
Feng Yunlie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "Valley Master wants to see the sword forging?"
"That's right." Ye Jin rubbed Little Phoenix, "The Sword Worship Villa is famous all over the world for its sword-making skills. Now that I'm here, I naturally want to take a look."
"Chirp!" Furball raised his head and chirped at Feng Yunlie.
Feng Yunlie looked confused, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
"Why?" Ye Jin was puzzled, "Are you afraid that I will learn the secret?"
"Of course not." Feng Yunlie said quickly, "Master Ye Gu is an upright person, how could he do such a disgraceful thing."
"Why is that?" Ye Jin broke the casserole and asked.
"Chirp." Little Phoenix also tilted his head to cooperate.
Feng Yunlie said, "This is the rule passed down from our ancestors. When making swords, no outsiders are allowed to be present except for your own family members and the swordsmith. Please forgive me, Valley Master."
"That's it." Ye Jin suddenly realized.
"I'm really sorry." Feng Yunlie broke out in a cold sweat.
"Forget it then. I was too reckless." Ye Jin did not argue any further and was about to go out holding Little Phoenix in his arms.
"Chiu!" Maoqiu was a little anxious, because just as he was about to show Feng Yunlie his new skills, he was cruelly carried away!
"Master Ye Gu." Feng Yunlie stopped him.
"Is there something wrong, Master?" Ye Jin turned around.
"Chirp." Once the opportunity was lost, Maoqiu took the opportunity to get out of Ye Jin's arms, spread out his short wings and flew into the air. The little black bean looked at Feng Yunlie with bright eyes!
"I would like to ask, how long will it take for Mr. Shen to recover?" Feng Yunlie probed.
"Chirp!" The fur ball flapped its wings desperately because it could not hold on any longer - why didn't anyone praise it or touch it? It was really frustrating.
"With the herbs that Manor Master Feng sent last night, it should be quick." Ye Jin said.
Feng Yunlie breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chiu!" The ball of fur fell straight down.
Ye Jin reached out to take it, and then said, "It will be healed in about one or two months."
Feng Yunlie almost vomited blood again. Why did it take so long?
"But this kind of thing is not certain." Ye Jin added, "Maybe it will be cured in three to five days. After all, the heart disease is no worse than other diseases. With Asher taking good care of him, it is not impossible for Ling'er to recover overnight. "
"That would be great." Feng Yunlie's heart, which had risen to his throat, calmed down a little.
"Does the owner have anything else to do?" Ye Jin asked.
"No more." Feng Yunlie shook his head, "There are still some unfinished matters in the village, so I can't accompany Valley Master around. Please forgive me, Valley Master Ye."
"The owner of the manor is too polite." After saying goodbye to him, Ye Jin poked the ball of fur in the yard.
"Chiu..." The fur ball buried its head in its wings, feeling very shocked.
Ye Jin laughed and rubbed its round body.
"What's the result?" Shen Qianfeng asked after returning to his residence.
"As expected." Ye Jin said, "They brought up the ancestral precepts to pressure me, saying that no outsiders can be present."
"I do have an idea." Oliver suddenly said.
"What?" Everyone looked at him.
"We certainly can't force Fengyun Lie to open a kiln to make swords, but those sects that bought swords from the Sword Worship Villa can." Oliver said, "According to the news I got a few days ago, the business volume of the Sword Worship Villa is not small. In addition to those who are overdue and in arrears, there must be many who have taken orders and collected money, but have not yet reached the delivery date. "
"That's right." Asher nodded. "Back then, when Zhuiying Palace placed an order from Baijian Villa, it was almost a year in advance, and all the money was paid in advance."
"Then we might as well spread the news." Oliver said, "Say that there is a problem in the Baijian Villa, and now it is no longer possible to forge swords, and it will never be possible to open the kiln again in the future, otherwise there would not be so many orders in arrears. Once this news spreads in the martial arts world, all the sects that have ordered swords from the Baijian Villa will definitely be anxious. By then, dozens of sects will come together to collect the debts, and Feng Yunlie will have a hard time not giving an explanation."
Asher pinched his cheek and said, "This is a good idea."
"You two are becoming more and more alike." Shen Qianfeng also laughed, "No one except Zhuiying Palace can come up with such an idea."
The secret guard was proud on the rooftop.
Yes, we are so smart, sharp, cool and dazzling.
As always, never changed.
When it comes to the ability to spread rumors, if Zhuiying Palace ranks second, then no one can rank first. So that night, everyone burned the midnight oil and worked out a very touching, complicated and shocking story overnight.
To summarize it in the title, it is "That century-old villa standing alone, although it has gone through many storms, is ultimately no match for the fierce beauty", which is very fresh and clean.
In a small teahouse at the foot of the mountain, a few new disciples were eating melon seeds when they suddenly heard people nearby discussing gossip about Baijian Villa, so they quickly dragged their chairs over.
"It is said that the c0ncubine of Master Feng colluded with the swordsmith and tried to take over the family property, but was discovered by Master Feng. So Master Feng decided to fight to the death and destroyed the entire sword kiln with explosives." Commoner A was overjoyed, as if he was there at the time.
"Yes." Commoner Yi also sighed, "It's just a pity that those sword-making kilns will never be rebuilt again."
"I've heard about that, too." Commoner C said, "Those sword-making kilns were designed with great effort by the ancestors of the Sword-Forging Villa, and their structures are so ingenious that they can forge the best swords. Unfortunately, the blueprints have long been lost, and the sword kilns have unfortunately been blown up. I'm afraid that the Sword-Forging Villa will no longer be able to forge swords in the future."
The people around him were also disappointed. After all, Feng Yunlie was quite popular in Bronze Town. Not only did he give out porridge every year, but he also funded the construction of the River Temple. He didn't have the domineering gangsterism of people in the rivers and lakes. Now he has encountered such a shocking change. , naturally also have some sympathy.
The people on one side were just sighing in sympathy, but the world on the other side was already exploding.
Baijian Villa is a famous swordsmith, so the price of swords is extremely high. One sword can almost buy eight or nine carts in an ordinary blacksmith shop. But even so, Jianghu sects are still flocking to it, and they are proud to own the swords of the Sword Forging Villa. Firstly, it is because the quality is indeed high and the material is excellent for blowing and breaking hair; secondly, it is also for showing off, it feels very decent to hold one in your hand! As Shen Xiaoshou said, the scabbard pattern of Sword Worship Villa is basically equivalent to the Hermès LOGO in modern society.
In order to own Hermès among the swords, Jianghu sects, no matter how big or small, rich or poor, even if they live frugally, they have to buy it, and they are eager to get it as soon as possible. So you can imagine how shocked all the masters were when they heard that the Sword Making Villa could no longer make swords - it was like a girl who had been waiting for Hermès for a year with a girlish heart, but was suddenly informed of the mall. It went bankrupt, the boss took the money and ran away with his sister-in-law, Hermès is gone, the lethality is simply overwhelming, okay?
Very cruel.
"If Feng Yunlie doesn't give an explanation, I'm afraid this place will become more lively than a martial arts conference." In the Jianjian Villa, Asher held a bowl of sugar water and fed it to Oliver while eating it himself.
Shen Xiaoshou swallowed the taro with a smile, this is the power of the buyer!
"Guess what Feng Yunlie will do next?" Asher asked him.
"No matter what happens to him." Oliver held a bowl of water and drank sugar water. "What he has to face now is not us, but all the sects in the world. If he makes a mistake, it may really shake the century-old foundation of the Villa."
Asher leaned over and k!ssed his lips, "My Ling'er is so smart."
Shen Xiaoshou said in a self-aggrandizing tone, "Praise me more."
Asher thought for a moment, "If the waist is soft, the scream will sound nice too."
Oliver:...
You are really hopeless, this young hero.
