Chapter 98
"Grandpa, I brought most of the people in Bixiewu out." Xu Wanfeng said softly, ignoring the wind blowing his hair on his face, and continued to vent on his own, "I also released the news that I was still in Pan Yuan, he is too weak to walk... Do you think he will go to the evil spirit dock to kill me on a whim? That is really a coincidence.
"I really... don't know what to say now," he sniffed, and brushed off the fresh snow on the stele, "I only thought he was reckless at the beginning, but now I envy him even more because he speaks freely and pours out all his thoughts, Love and hate.
"I can't tell whether I love him more... or hate him more. I love him and want to give him my life, but I hate him so much that I dream of midnight and want to strangle him to death with him.
"Perhaps you made the wrong choice back then... What's the use of choosing a lunatic who is in a mess? It's better to choose a dog who is willing to curry favor with the emperor...
"...It would have been better if you hadn't done anything back then." He frowned and stood up on his legs, "You didn't do anything, so why should I keep arguing with him. If you found out what happened back then, we Why do you need to clean up the mess you left behind? He also fell ill and had to drag his body around...
"At this moment, he should have assumed the position of Marquis long ago."
The moon hanging on Xu Wanfeng's waist was blown by the wind, and countless glittering butterfly wings slammed into one piece.Xu Wanfeng suddenly rebelliously punched Xu Zong's tombstone amidst the noise, his knuckles were dripping with blood, and the smell of blood enveloped his entire hand.
"Grandpa, I will give him my life and pay off the debt. The Xu family already owes the Yan family.
"Me? I still have to go to see my mother... Yes, Xu Muzhang has not told me where my mother is yet. How dare he not tell me the truth!"
Xu Wanfeng was short of breath, his fingers twitched, and it took him a while to recover. He raised his head and took a deep breath, and left Xu Zong's grave.
He doesn't remember much about his grandma. It seems that the old lady is gone as soon as he remembers.Xu Zong devoted his entire life to doing things for the emperor, so he was not considered a family member, perhaps because the things he taught his son were too single, and he taught him such a useless thing.However, Xu Wanfeng was not loved since he was a child. Xu Zong learned a lesson and wanted to teach him well, but he was too busy. Xu Wanfeng ran away from home before he started. The madness hidden in Xu Wanfeng's heart was forced out.
But if you insist on him, Xu Wanfeng is the one who is most suitable to be the evil spirit Wuqing no matter what.He is unkind to his relatives, and he also knows what it means to handle the emperor properly, and he can keep secrets.But the last thing he would have thought was that Xu Wanfeng stumbled on Yan Xinghe.
The grave of Lian Yin, Xu Wanfeng's mother, is on another hill.He has not been here for many years, and the trees he planted with his own hands will be so tall that they cannot be recognized.
The branches were pressed down by the snow, and some rustled on the bare monument.Lian Yin's grave has only one stele, and the dirt behind it was leveled by Xu Wanfeng many years ago.He dug several layers of soil at that time, but there was no sign of the coffin at all.Lian Yin's death was a flimsy and ridiculous lie by Xu Muzhang from beginning to end.
Xu Wanfeng didn't know how long this clown could continue to play, because he really didn't have the patience to play with him anymore.
The wind on the mountain suddenly picked up, blowing the snow on Xu Wanfeng's forehead.He took the cloak to cover it, but smelled a strange fragrance.
His whole body was stiff, and he shouted eagerly: "Swallow? Swallow...is that you?! Come out!"
The wind and snow blew his face and dried his throat. He couldn't stop choking for a while, and no one helped him. He knelt on the ground and closed his mouth tightly. After coughing enough, he raised his head and sniffed again. smell.
It seemed... the smell from that tree.
His face suddenly changed.He came to the tree and sniffed again.His eyes were blindfolded by Xu Zong for the convenience of him after he went to Panyuan, and he had to adapt for a while before he could walk.When he first returned to Qizhou, he had no senses and could not smell anything when he planted the sapling. Now that he is blindfolded but has a nose, he is familiar with the smell of Yazi, and he can smell it as soon as he smells it.
His nose was about to be frozen, but fortunately he had the strong wind.He hurried down the mountain.
When Yan Xinghe took over his scabbard in Zuiwengzhuang, something was wrong, and part of his scabbard was taken from this tree, with other wood and spices, and it lasted for a long time. After staying together, his nose has long been accustomed to the very light smell of spices, and Yan Xinghe can still smell it after all, after all, he has been hit by Jai Zi.
At that time, he thought it was just a thought of his mother, but who would have thought it was a basalt charcoal tree!
Lian Yin has been missing for many years, probably after Xu Wanfeng disappeared for a month, there is something wrong with Lian Yin who has been under house arrest by Xu Muzhang, after all, it is impossible for Xu Wanfeng not to visit her for a month.Xu Zong was not very well at that time, but he knew the whole story.Xu Wanfeng heard from Xu Zong that Xu Muzhang was annoyed by Lian Yin in the end, and agreed to see her, only to realize that Xu Wanfeng was gone, but he really didn't want Xu Wanfeng to come back, this son really made him the next head of the family face.He dealt with it casually, and the matter of looking for Xu Wanfeng was over. It didn't take long for Lian Yin to disappear. Xu Muzhang said that he was gone, but neither Xu Wanfeng nor Xu Zong believed it.
Lian Yin's house had been left unused for a long time, Xu Muzhang didn't want anyone to touch it, and naturally no one cleaned it up, so he could gain a good reputation as a memorial to his beloved woman.Xu Wanfeng entered her room, the outside was alright, the wind was blowing all day long, but the room was closed for a long time, and as soon as the door was opened, a lot of ash was thrown up, Xu Wanfeng's throat was dry, and now his lungs were burning hot .
Lian Yin's belongings have not been touched since she left, and they are neatly stacked on the cabinet and table.Xu Wanfeng took off her goggles, took out a box full of patterns from her cabinet, put it on the table, and frantically flipped through it in light of the light coming in from the paper window.
Back then, he dug out the basalt charcoal sapling from this box, which was carefully wrapped in a square of linen cloth, with soil clods on the roots, and many layers of paper underneath.
He took out the sackcloth and the layers of paper.Those papers were full of words, but upon closer inspection, they were actually letters from the same person named "Argando".It can be seen that although these letters have been opened and read, they are not taken by Lian Yin and have not been read many times.
He didn't know who Agando was, but he could tell from the letters that Agando must be very familiar with Lian Yin and had a close relationship with his maternal ancestor's family. Most of the letters were telling Lian Yin about her natal family's recent situation. There will be some flowers and plants mixed in, and there will also be pressed dried flowers, which are placed at the bottom of the box by Lian Yin.
The last letter was about the sapling, which roughly told Lian Yin that the sapling grows fast, but it is very rare. It will have a fragrance when it grows up, and it can be used as a jewelry box and so on.
There used to be a lot of flowers and plants in Lian Yin's yard and house, and every once in a while, there will be more flowers and plants. Presumably, A-Gando sent her seeds for her to plant for fun.
There are really many doubts about this Agando, and besides that, it is really impossible to start with Yazi Xu Wanfeng.He gathered the letter papers together and put them back into the box, flipped through them again, and took out a translucent yellow stone, which looked like amber, but it was not very similar to amber. There was no mosquito corpse in it, but there was a trace of blue Colors are mixed in.
Xu Wanfeng looked at it under the light for a while, then quickly put it in his pocket, tidied up the room, tied his eyes and took it out.
Xu Wanfeng had a terrible headache, changed his clothes, and went out of Xu Mansion in the wind and snow.
The last time he was in the vast snow in Qizhou, there was still Yan Xinghe.
Just thinking of Yan Xinghe gave him a headache.After such a long time, there is still no news of him, and his patience is about to be worn out bit by bit.
The yamen in Qizhou was relatively stable this year, and when Xu Wanfeng entered, the policemen were not as busy as they were last year.
Detective Yang quickly came out of the warehouse with a bunch of files in his arms. Seeing Xu Wanfeng who hadn't seen him for a long time, he hurriedly called out: "Master Xu!"
"Heh, he's an acquaintance." Xu Wanfeng stood still and greeted him, "Is your place still peaceful this year?"
"It's okay, it's not as big as last year's Zuixiangtang case."
"That's good."
"Master Xu, please. What's the matter here?"
"It's nothing, I just went home and came to have a look."
"That's right, it must have been a year since you and Mr. Yan went far away last time?"
Xu Wanfeng smiled: "Yes, it's almost there."
"Why don't you see Mr. Yan?"
"He... has something to do. By the way, do you have any records of my mother here?"
"Huh?" Detective Yang quickly asked in confusion, "How do you say it?"
"For example... where is my mother's family and when did she get married?"
"These will indeed be recorded. Since it's your mother, it's fine for you to check. But don't you know?"
"...My mother has been under house arrest since she was a child. We, mother and son, get together less often and leave more. We have never heard her talk about it."
Detective Yang was taken aback for a moment, he hesitated in response, and hurried to the warehouse to fetch the books.
Xu Wanfeng is not used to talking about Lian Yin with others, even Yan Xinghe has never mentioned it.What is there to say, the love and hatred of the previous generation has nothing to do with him, Yan Xinghe's previous generation and his grandfather's life have not yet been settled.
The booklet was quickly brought over.After Xu Wanfeng heard this, his whole body tensed up.
Lian Yin married to Yuzhou in the 23rd year of Taiwu, and her ancestral home is in Zhuoshui.
In fact, Xu Wanfeng was afraid and anxious about the places where Yan Xinghe might go. He was afraid that he would meet Yan Xinghe, and he didn't know how to talk to him. an ant.
But at the moment, he seems to have nothing else to do except go to his grandfather's house in Zhuoshui to ask about Agando's news. For such things as inspections, he should leave it to his subordinates to solve them. is the top priority.
Just as the two of them were packing up the books, a man ran in from the Yamen, shouting: "My lord!"
Detective Yang raised his head suspiciously, but Xu Wanfeng reprimanded him, "Do you want to rebel by making such a loud noise?"
"My lord!" The man was not wearing the school uniform of Bixiewu, and he might have just returned from the street, "Gu Ai hasn't replied to any letter since you let her follow Wu Hui last time. The person at Yulankou said that he once I saw Guai in Zhayao."
Xu Wanfeng frowned, got up and walked out: "So the last time Gu Ai appeared was in the gate medicine? The gate medicine can be in the southwest... So, I remember that Zhang Qing was assigned to Yulankou recently? Let her go and see if it is If I can’t find it, send a message and say, I’m going to visit the muddy water.”
"Turdy, turbid water?!" The man froze for a moment, "But we didn't..."
"I'm going to investigate people. Divide into three groups, transfer a few to Yulankou to help Zhang Qingze, a few go to patrol, and the rest follow me to Zhuo Shui."
