The White snow covered the path and many other tracks, but that did not stop Feng bujue from exploring the forest.

In the time it took to make a cup of tea, he found a guest house with his mysterious ability to find the way.

Of course, the Inn was already in the past, because at this time, the small house had become a burnt ruin.

The thick burning smell that had not dispersed was undoubtedly one of the reasons Feng bujue could find this place.

This place should have been an Inn. Feng bujue stood on the hill and came to that conclusion after a quick glance.

How do you know? RUO Yu was not questioning brother Jues conclusion, but she needed more details to understand the reasoning process.

Looking at the foundation, brother Jue replied.Its too big for a house built in the forest. As for a temple, its structure was wrong. So the most likely place is an Inn.

Would an Inn built in such a place have guests? RUO Yu asked.

Thats where you dont know Feng bujue said.Even though this is not the main road, based on the terrain and the appearance of the forest At this moment, there is actually a path under the snow that we are standing on. A small path was also a path, and if there was a path, it meant that someone was walking on it. And those travelers would naturally need a place to rest.

But not many people will take this path. RUO Yu continued.

Ha Looking at the size of this Inn, it cant accommodate many people. Feng bujue smiled and walked down the hill.

RUO Yu followed his steps and thought.

It seems that this fire has just finished burning. RUO Yu said as they approached the ruins.

Well, these ashes are still warm. I guess Its the fire from last night or this morning. When Feng bujue answered, he had already taken out Bells daily knife and stepped into the ruins to fiddle with the various remains on the ground.

RUO Yu knew what he was doing and was happy to let him handle the task. Thus, the two of them immediately fell into a silence that seemed rather abrupt to the onlookers.

However, this silence, in their eyes, was a tacit understanding that did not need to be said.

Phew Im almost there. About ten minutes later, Feng bujue walked out of the scorched earth and sighed.

What did you see? RUO Yu looked at him expectantly and asked.

First the murder, then the arson. There were nine victims, and at least three of them knew martial arts. All nine of them were killed by martial arts masters. At this point, Feng bujue paused for a few seconds before adding,the number of the murderer is unknown, but This person, or this group of people They must be experienced, efficient, and highly efficient.

Hearing this, RUO Yu pondered for a few seconds before saying,In a wuxia setting, its not unusual to meet an experienced murderer.

But the crime scene is not far from our teleportation point, which means there must be something wrong. Its very likely Feng bujue mumbled.

[Side quest has been triggered]

Before he could finish his sentence, the systems voice rang in their ears.

Take a look Brother Jue spread his hands and said to RUO Yu.

They opened the game menu almost at the same time and saw the new mission [find out the truth behind the murder case at Miyao Inn].

Just as well, this is your strong point. RUO Yu said in a relaxed tone after looking at the mission.

Even if its a strong point, the information I can gather at this stage Is only what Ive just said. Feng bujue looked helpless.

Yes, I understand. RUO Yu said,even with the criminal investigation technology of our era, it would be difficult to find evidence in a fire site that burned to the point that there was nothing left to burn before it was extinguished. Its already not easy for you to be able to read this information.

Eh? When Feng bujue heard this, he smiled slyly.Whats going on today? Not only did he not argue with me, but he also seemed to be very understanding? Are you going to ask me for my red packet money?

According to my estimation, the value of the red packet money and all kinds of holiday gifts Ive received since I was young should be more than the total value of all the legal a.s.sets youve handled in your life. Do you really want to continue talking about this topic with me? RUO Yu retorted without changing her expression.

Thats more like it. The next second, Feng bujue nodded in satisfaction.

Obviously, he didnt care about the content of the other partys argument. He just wanted to have an att.i.tude that made him feel more at ease.

To put it more bluntly, this was called being cheap

But then again, didnt the so-called flirting most of the time start from a mans cheap behavior of looking for trouble?

Just like mancai (a type of j.a.pan stage comedy, similar to Chinas crosstalk, but slightly different), one person had to play dumb to get the other to criticize.

No matter how foolish a person acted, they were not truly foolish. No matter how sarcastic the person was, he didnt have any ill intentions.

This kind of game, where one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, is an indispensable part of human social behavior.

Only friends who could unscrupulously scold each other for being r.e.t.a.r.ded but no one took it seriously were called Iron Brothers. True love was true if a man and a woman could get used to each others shortcomings and treat them as a point of criticism, but still not abandon each other.

Not to mention whether this was sad or ridiculous, but overall The depth of the relations.h.i.+p between people reflected the degree of freedom they had when they played dirty in front of the other party.

You would only show your truest side in front of the person closest to you because you knew how tolerant the other party was to you. This gave you a sense of security, and only with a sense of security would people feel at ease, speak freely, and do whatever they wanted.

Everyone would meet a few people in their lives, and you would never have to worry about losing your composure in front of them.

Whether its love or Birds of a Feather, if you cant find such a person by your side, then Im afraid your life is too lonely and a failure.

And w.a.n.g Qiong was such a person.

He didnt lack friends, and there were countless people who wanted to be his friends.

He didnt lack lovers. If he was willing, it wouldnt be difficult for him to be a groom every night.

But he still felt lonely.

Because in this world, he could no longer find anyone who could make him completely let down his guard and trust him completely.

When a person could only feel at ease when he was alone, then no matter how many people surrounded him, he would always be lonely.

Heightslord, theres a guest here to see you,

Outside the door, Cheng Weis report roused w.a.n.g Qiong from his nap.

Hah w.a.n.g Qiong, who was lying on a soft couch, shook his head and yawned.Who are these people?

w.a.n.g Qiong hadnt been educated when he was a child. Although he had learned how to read and calculate accounts when he grew up, he couldnt change his way of speaking. Therefore, he would never say things like Who are you?

Heightslord, its a man and a woman. The man calls himself Zhang San and says hes here to deliver the goods. Cheng Wei replied.

Cheng Wei could be considered as one of the more trustworthy people among those that w.a.n.g Qiong didnt trust. He and his younger brother, Cheng Yong, had been w.a.n.g Qiongs personal guards for ten years.

Although he was called a guard, Cheng Wei was actually more like a butler over the years. Because w.a.n.g Qiong had many experts under him, Cheng Wei rarely had the chance to display his martial arts.

Oh w.a.n.g Qiong thought for a few seconds and said,ask them to wait for a while. Ill be right there.

Yes. Yes, Cheng Wei replied. The sound of his quick footsteps could be heard from outside the door.

Not long after, w.a.n.g Qiong was fully dressed. He left the room and went to the courtyard outside.

The owner of this courtyard was the richest man in Lin Jin town and his mansion was the largest in the town.

But now, he was no longer in this town.

This was because on the day w.a.n.g Qiong arrived in Lin Jin town, he had bought this house and the three or four houses around it to be his and his mens residence.

And his buying method was basically Ill give you half a day to pack up and move away. If you cant take it away or cant pack it in time, Ill buy it all.

After stating his request, he would let the other party name any price, and then he would follow the random price. If he really gave

This was w.a.n.g Qiongs way of doing things, and this was his way of spending money.

The scariest thing was that his ability to earn money was even more outstanding than his ability to spend money

You two, sorry for the long wait. w.a.n.g Qiong walked through the courtyard and into a central room in the front yard. As he walked through the door, he was already greeting the two guests.

w.a.n.g Qiong didnt care much about etiquette, but his guest was quite particular.

Nice to meet you, boss w.a.n.g. The male guest immediately stood up, cupped his hands, and bowed.

w.a.n.g Qiong looked him up and down. He was a thin man with a feminine face and looked to be in his thirties. In this cold weather, he still wore a neat blue robe and had a sword at his waist. One look and one could tell that he was a martial arts master.

At the same time-the other party was also observing boss w.a.n.g who was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin-he was in his early forties and did not look ugly. He was wearing a fur coat, cotton pants, and a fur hat. He didnt look like someone from the martial arts world at all. He looked like a shopkeeper no matter how one looked at him.

We Have met before? w.a.n.g Qiong looked at him in confusion.

The man who called himself Zhang San didnt answer this question. Instead, he glanced at Cheng Wei, who was standing at the side, and then threw a questioning look at w.a.n.g Qiong.

Oh w.a.n.g Qiong understood what he meant.It doesnt matter. Just let him listen. You can tell him.

w.a.n.g Qiong didnt like to beat around the bush, and he would always speak in the simplest and most straightforward way.

Okay Zhang San hesitated for a few seconds and replied,then Ill remind you, boss w.a.n.g The last time we met, my ident.i.ty was still Zhu Cheng.

What? w.a.n.g Qiong took two steps back and glanced at him again.You said youre Zhu Cheng? His expression was already expressing his disbelief.Zhu Cheng, the second of the four unique of Yuling?

Yes, Zhang San gave an affirmative answer.

Hmph At this time, Cheng Wei sneered.Ridiculous. If you want to impersonate someone else, shouldnt you first ask about their figure and appearance? Zhu Chengs body is worth two of you.

Then, is Zhu Chengs voice like this?

This sentence was said by Zhang San, but the voice he used to say this was completely different from his previous voice. It was exactly the same as Zhu Chengs voice.

You Seeing this, Cheng Wei was also at a loss for words.

So You used to be Zhu Cheng, but youre now Zhang San? w.a.n.g Qiongs reaction was faster than his.

Ive never been Zhu Cheng The real Zhu Cheng has been replaced by me long before the four unique of Yuling met you,Zhang San replied.

Oh So youve always been Zhang San and only pretended to be Zhu Cheng for a while? w.a.n.g Qiong said.

Im not Zhang San either,Zhang San said.

Then Who are you? w.a.n.g Qiong asked.

Zhang San laughed.It doesnt matter who I am. I can be Zhu Cheng, I can also be Zhang San. If necessary, I can also be w.a.n.g Qiong. I can even be w.a.n.g Qiong for the rest of my life.

This sentence was very dangerous.

He was as dangerous as the person who said that.

What? Before his voice fell, Cheng Weis eyes and murderous aura were already approaching Zhang San like a blade.

Hahaha Zhang San laughed.Im just joking Im just joking. Dont take it seriously, warrior Cheng.

Whether Zhang San was really joking and whether Cheng Wei took this seriously, everyone knew without saying.

But they didnt continue on this topic, because w.a.n.g Qiong had already started to talk about something else as if nothing had happened.Alright, alright. It doesnt matter who you are. You dont have to tell me what happened between you and the four unique of Yu Ling. The grudges between you people of the martial world have nothing to do with me. I only care if the deal can be done. As for who I do it with Its all the same to me.

As he spoke, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the woman who had been sitting silently at the side.

The woman was wearing a thick cotton coat and a red cloak. She had a bamboo hat on her head, and a thick black Veil covered her face completely.

Since she was wrapped up like this, there wasnt much evidence left to determine her gender. However, there were still some Such as the style of her clothes, the way she walked, and The only part of her body that was not covered, her pair of white, Jade-like, slender hands.

It was indeed a pair of beautiful hands, so beautiful that they were flawless, and even made people feel that they were fake.

The owner of this pair of hands had obviously not done any rough work, nor had he practiced martial arts Even if he had, it was definitely not hand martial arts.

w.a.n.g Qiong had seen many women, and he had also seen many pairs of womens hands. Thus, at this moment, he didnt need to look at the womans face to know that she must be a peerless beauty.

This is w.a.n.g Qiong spoke again after a moment. He had wanted to say,this is the goods, but after some thought, he changed the latter half of his sentence to,The person Im looking for?

Yes. Zhang sans reply was neither fast nor slow, and his tone sounded very confident.

She Is she alright? w.a.n.g Qiongs next question seemed a little ambiguous.

However, Zhang San knew what he was asking.Shes fine,

A second later, as if afraid that w.a.n.g Qiong didnt understand, Zhang San added,Its as good as new.

w.a.n.g Qiong didnt respond. Instead, he turned around and said,Cheng Wei.

Yes, Cheng Wei responded.

Call the two maidservants and the midwife over w.a.n.g Qiong had not finished his sentence.

Hold on, Zhang San interrupted.

Whats wrong? w.a.n.g Qiong asked.

Are we not going to negotiate the price before inspecting the goods? Zhang sans eyes were filled with greed.

How much do you want to add? w.a.n.g Qiong was truly a straightforward person.

He skipped the nonsense of asking the obvious and Zhang sans description of how many difficulties he had experienced and how many risks he had taken in this operation. Instead, he directly asked the core question about the other partys purpose.

Ill double. Zhang San was also a formidable character. In the face of w.a.n.g Qiongs question, he didnt panic at all and stated his obviously excessive asking price in a deep voice.

Alright, he said. w.a.n.g Qiong also answered without hesitation,check the goods first. If theres no problem with the goods, you can take the money and leave.

After saying this, w.a.n.g Qiong turned around and left.

He didnt say anything else. He knew that Cheng Wei would do a good job.

When w.a.n.g Qiong turned around, he looked very ordinary, and so did the way he walked.

There was absolutely no domineering aura in his movements.

However, when he turned around,Zhang San looked at his back with respect.

I, Zhang, will see you off, boss w.a.n.g. When he walked out of the room, Zhang San bowed even deeper than when he came in. He said this in a tone of admiration.
