After reading through the book, I was fascinated by the Quanxiu Xianjie

Chapter 254 The Strange City Lord's Mansion

Qian Siwu looked at Huo Jiuheng helplessly, and Huo Jiuheng shook his head, meaning he quit.

Qian Siwu sighed, all right, then look for another chance.

"Why is there a flying knife attack here suddenly?" Liang Shuyun picked up the flying knife on the ground with a puzzled expression.

The flying knife was bought by Huo Jiuheng at the weapon shop in the orc city. It had some patterns on it, but they were sure that those patterns were ordinary patterns and had no meaning, so they dared to use them with confidence.

"Yeah, it's so strange." Qian Siwu agreed along with her.

"The trajectory of the flying knife just came from here." Liang Shuyun gestured with the flying knife, "Friend Huo, did you find any suspicious people just now?"

In Liang Shuyun's eyes, Huo Jiuheng was standing in this direction just now, that's why he asked him.

"I don't have much spiritual power now, so it's hard to detect these things." Huo Jiuheng said lightly.

"That's true." Liang Shuyun nodded in conviction.

If her five senses hadn't been specially improved, she would have been injured by a flying knife.

"Then let's be careful, this city is very unsafe." Liang Shuyun looked around and said, "Didn't fellow Daoist Xie say yesterday that he felt that people were watching him all the time? They should be targeting us."

"Yes, it is possible." Qian Siwu responded positively.

The three walked cautiously outside the City Lord's Mansion.

Two stone lions were placed in front of the city lord's mansion in Four Seasons City. A piece of red silk was wrapped around each lion's neck, but the red silk was gray and dusty.

The same is true for the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, with a layer of dust on it, which looks like it has not been lived in for many years.

The three of them first walked around the city lord's mansion outside, and then returned to the gate of the city lord's mansion.

"Do you want to go in and have a look now?" Qian Siwu asked.

Mainly, there were not many people around here, so she wanted to go in and have a look.

"Yes." Liang Shuyun nodded.

Huo Jiuheng didn't care, Qian Siwu said he would go in.

The three reached an agreement, bypassed the wall behind the city lord's mansion and climbed over the wall.

Qian Siwu rode on the top of the wall and looked down, only to see that the city lord's mansion was overgrown with weeds and was completely deserted. It seemed that no one had lived in it for a long time, and some houses were even damaged.

The three of them entered the city lord's mansion, and went into every room to have a look.

Some of the furniture in the house is broken, but there are still clothes in the closet, the bedding on the bed is still spread, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall are still hanging.

All houses are like this.

"Why does it feel like everyone in the City Lord's Mansion has disappeared?" Liang Shuyun asked in confusion.

"I also have this feeling." Qian Siwu agreed, "Since everything is there, let's look for clues."

Qian Siwu went to a big house to find clues.

This house should belong to the owner. The house is very large and luxuriously decorated, but now it is covered with a layer of dust.

Qian Siwu went directly to the study and bedroom.

There is still rice paper on the desk in the study, on which is a half-painted painting.

In the painting, a pregnant lady rests on a beauty couch. Her belly is at least five or six months old.

This painting only draws rough lines, and even the faces of the characters have not been painted, only an outline.

Qian Siwu flipped through the books on the shelf again.

All the books on the shelf are glued together, and none of them can be opened. It seems that there is no clue here.

Qian Siwu stepped on the chair in front of the desk and took down a box on the top of the bookshelf.

The box was as long as her forearm, with complicated patterns carved on it, and a ruby ​​in the middle.

The box was locked, and Qian Siwu didn't find the key in the study, so after thinking about it, he called Huo Jiuheng over.

"What's wrong?" Huo Jiuheng ran over.

"I found a box without a key. Use a dagger to see if you can pry it open." Qian Siwu handed the box to Huo Jiuheng.

Huo Jiuheng took it, took out the dagger and tried it, "Let's break it open with a stone."

Huo Jiuheng went out to find a big rock, and knocked the lock off with a few bangs.

Qian Siwu came over to open the box, and there were two pieces of paper and a letter inside.

The two pieces of paper were two identical Heli books, and the letter was written "Designed by Jin Niang".

Qian Siwu first glanced through He Li's book.

It is written in the Heli book that the Zhao couple reconciled due to emotional discord.

One of the inscriptions below is for the man, Zhao Fan, and the other for the woman, Jin Kou, but only the man's name is stamped on it, and the woman's is not.

But looking at the handwriting of the name, it was written by one person.

Qian Siwu handed the Heli letter to Huo Jiuheng, and opened the letter again.

Qian Siwu went to see the signature first, the letter was written by the person named Zhao Fan.

The general content of the letter is that the beast outside the city is not something ordinary people can deal with. He has formed a team to fight the beast. This trip may be very bad or bad. If he does not come back, let Jin Kou take it. Remarry with Li Shu, don't wait for him.

"Did Jin Kou read this letter?" Qian Siwu asked.

"Probably not. The creases on the paper are very new, so no one should have seen them." Huo Jiuheng analyzed.

He means that the crease has not been folded repeatedly, not that the crease was recently folded.

Qian Siwu didn't believe it, and folded the letter back according to the traces, "Look, you can't see it."

"I can't see it, but if it's a husband and wife, will the wife fold the letter back like we did?"

"...Yes, I think so too." Qian Siwu nodded.

She was just questioning what he said just now, who made him speak so imprecisely.

"This study should only be used by Zhao Fan. There is no trace of his wife. Let's look elsewhere." Qian Siwu said as he left the study and walked to the bedroom.

Huo Jiuheng followed behind her.

Most people's first reaction when entering a bedroom is to look at the bed, and Qian Siwu is no exception, he walked to the bed first and lifted the bed curtain.

The bed curtain was lifted, bringing up a cloud of dust, Qian Siwu slapped his mouth and nose with his hand.

There was a pillow and a quilt on the bed, Qian Siwu remembered the pregnant lady, and said, "This lady should sleep alone."

"Sleep in separate beds? Why?" Huo Jiuheng asked puzzled.

"Because the lady is pregnant, we can't sleep well together." Qian Siwu explained.

"Ah? Really? How does Sister Qian know?" Huo Jiuheng looked at her suspiciously.

"I guessed it." Qian Siwu said confidently, "Look, Madam has such a big belly, sleeping with two of them might prevent her from turning over, and if she wakes up at night, she must move a lot, which will affect Zhao Fan's ability to sleep. Good night, he is the lord of the city, and he has to work during the day, so he must not sleep well at night."

Huo Jiuheng was persuaded by her and nodded in conviction.

"It makes sense."

　I sincerely wish everyone a good health, it is really hard to be sick! ! !
