Chapter 394 The Weird Shen Family (Second Update)
Shen Qinan's face was full of flattering smiles. He respectfully and flatteringly welcomed the woman in white into the hall. The woman in white walked like a willow in the wind, with a graceful posture and a different kind of charm in her elegance, which formed a sharp contrast with her holy and pure back, and particularly tempted people's desires.
Watching them enter the hall one after another, Meng Qi retracted his gaze, but still couldn't remember who the woman in white was. It seemed that he was not very familiar with her and had only met her once.
In short, she was quite dangerous. The Shen family was indeed a bit mysterious... He didn't think about it anymore. He planned to take advantage of the opportunity when the masters of the Shen family gathered together to sneak into the back garden and look for the young lady of the Shen family.
Tonight, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The silver-white light cast a veil over the bare trees. Meng Qi took advantage of the various buildings and rockery stones in the Shen Garden to walk in the moonlight. His figure seemed to be there and not there. He passed under the eyes of the patrol team several times in a row, and they knew nothing about it.
Not long after, Meng Qi sneaked into the back garden 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 walked through the waterside pavilion and went deep into the back garden. It seemed that because it was late at night, she was worried that the evil ghost would suddenly jump out from some dark corner. She looked quite scared, her body trembled slightly, and she muttered to herself, begging for the blessing of the Taoist Buddha.
At this moment, her eyes suddenly widened, because there was a figure in front of her, wearing a black robe, with some weapons hidden in the clothes on the back, and wearing a "Yuanshi Tianzun" mask commonly seen in dramas and Taoist temples on her face.
The maid opened her mouth wide, her eyes were terrified, and she almost fainted and was about to scream, but her pupils suddenly reflected a pair of dark and deep eyes.
The waterside pavilion disappeared, the bright moon disappeared, the corridor disappeared, and the mysterious man disappeared. She only saw the pair of deep eyes that made people indulge. The panic was relieved and became warm and steady, as if she had returned to her mother's arms.
"Do you know where Miss Shen lives?" Meng Qi said in a mellow voice.
The maid said blankly: "Miss Shen? She lives in the Peony Building in the back garden, just turn left in front."
"Very good." Meng Qi praised and prepared to leave.
The maid suddenly shed two lines of clear tears, as if she had finally found someone she could rely on: "Help! Save me! I don't want to be killed!"
"Why do you want to be killed?" Meng Qi paused and frowned slightly.
As human traffickers, does the Shen family not value the lives of slaves at all, and beat or kill them as they please?
"I, I don't know. Many, many sisters disappeared without a sound. No, I, I saw it once. I secretly saw Shaoyao being strangled to death and dismembered by the young master!" The maid cried, her body trembling more and more. It turned out that she was not afraid of evil spirits, but the owner of the Shen family.
Is the Shen family so cruel? Meng Qi's mind moved, and his momentum changed, like the sky, like the earth, watching the sea change, seeing the dead like this, and used the method of changing the sky and striking the earth on the maid.
The sea of the mind is dark and unclear, and many memory fragments are blurred. This is the state of a normal person. The maid's most profound and unforgettable memories are presented in front of Meng Qi.
Born in a farming family, poor since childhood, he helped his parents early...
He went to the city to watch the lanterns, got separated from his parents and brother, and was kidnapped...
After being whipped and displaced, he finally settled down and entered the Shen family...
The window was half open, and the smell of blood came out. He was timid and decided to take a sneak peek first, and then consider whether to help his wife call the young master now...
Half of the arm was hanging on the chair, the broken meat and bones were like a carpet, and the whole head was placed on the table. It was Shaoyao. The young master was facing himself, his face was full of blood and flesh, flowing down his face and across the corners of his mouth...
The maid covered her eyes and squatted down, as if the last picture was a nightmare in her heart.
Is the young master of the Shen family a bloodthirsty murderer? Meng Qi has always been indignant and hates human traffickers. In addition to this brutal incident, he decided to submit a secret report and let the Six Gates deal with it. The Shen family lives in a small town and there is definitely no way to compete.
When you can take advantage of the situation, you should take advantage of it. The Shen family has many mysteries. If you show up rashly, you will be alone and may not end well.
After the spiritual invasion and comforting the maid, Meng Qi sneaked into the garden and sneaked towards the Peony Building.
The cold wind blew, and the maid came back to her senses. She felt her mind was clear and no longer anxious.
"Could it be that my prayer just now was useful? It seems, it seems that Yuanshi Tianzun..." The maid thought inexplicably, picked up the food box, walked to the right, and still muttered to herself, praying for blessings, but it was no longer a random attack. The Taoist Buddha and the nine holy Buddhas were all chanted, but they were focused on Yuanshi Tianzun.
…………
In the Peony Building, several copper basins were burning red charcoal, making the whole room warm like spring, in sharp contrast to the cold wind outside.
A woman sat in front of the dressing table, holding her chin with her hand, with a half-smile on her face, as if she was recalling sweet memories.
She was not wearing any makeup, but she was beautiful and charming. Her hair was tied into a bun, which added a bit of mature charm. Her clothes were not thick, like summer clothes, revealing patches of white and tender skin, which attracted people's attention.
Suddenly, she felt something in her heart and looked at the mirror. She saw a figure reflected in it, wearing a black robe and a mask. The momentum was majestic and vast, simple and vicissitudes, and extremely mysterious and terrifying!
"It's better not to scream." Her pupils shrank like needles. When she was about to call for help, she heard a voice as plain as time.
Feeling the momentum and oppression of the person behind her, recognizing the mask of "Yuanshi Tianzun", and thinking of some rumors, the woman chose to cooperate, did not call for help, and did not make any actions that would cause misunderstanding.
"I heard that Miss Shen broke off her engagement, and I am still alone and a virgin. Today, I see that there are many rumors in the world. Miss Shen, you are obviously married and have experienced love." "Yuanshi Tianzun" Meng Qi did not ask directly, just chatting.
The woman in front of him was Miss Shen's second daughter, Shen Ruoxuan. Her state was very contradictory to Lu Jian's information. At first glance, she looked like a plump, lazy and satisfied young woman.
Could she have an adulterer?
As Meng Qi looked around, Shen Ruoxuan said angrily: "Do I need outsiders to nag about my family affairs? What's wrong with having a lover to relieve my boredom?"
Relieve boredom...Meng Qi wanted to wipe off his cold sweat: "If that's the case, why don't you marry? The young master of the Jia family has no bad deeds, why would you rather die than obey? Everyone says that Miss Shen has a lover who is in love with you. Could this lover be your lover?"
"Are you asking with the Jia family? I know they have been brooding over it for a long time." Shen Ruoxuan snorted coldly, "I had a lover at that time, we were in love with each other, and we were willing to live and die together. Naturally, I looked down on others, but now he has passed away for many years. No matter how much pain I have to go out and start a new life."
She implied that her current lover was her former lover.
While talking, Shen Ruoxuan kept biting her lower lip, seeming a little nervous. Meng Qi was keenly aware of this and said, "So that's it, Miss Shen, your former lover was Jin Li?"
Although the voice was soft, it was like thunder. Shen Ruoxuan's face changed slightly, with some sweetness and some sadness. She was surprised and asked, "How do you know?"
"I was entrusted by the Jin family to investigate the cause of his death." Meng Qi answered calmly, his spirit spread and explored the room.
Things are a bit weird.
Shen Ruoxuan's face was desolate: "He, he died together with my third uncle."
"Die together?" Meng Qi asked.
Shen Ruoxuan looked at the expressionless "Yuanshi Tianzun" mask, and said with a smile and tears: "My family didn't agree with our marriage. He wanted to elope with me, but was stopped by my third uncle. There was a conflict, a big fight, and both of us failed. We both died. I attempted suicide but failed. I sat in this building for three years and just walked out recently."
Shen Ruoxuan's third uncle? Meng Qi frowned slightly. Lu Jian's intelligence didn't say anything. Could it be a hidden master of the Shen family? Could he die together with Jin Li, who could communicate with heaven and man?
Before he asked, Shen Ruoxuan said to herself: "The Jin family is quite powerful in the capital of gods. My father was worried that this incident would cause trouble, so he placed the body in front of the Chen family, who had an enemy, at night. He planned to find someone from the Six Gates the next day to confirm that the Chen family was the murderer. Who knew that the Chen family was also alert and didn't know where to hide the body."
After saying that, she looked up and looked at the "Yuanshi Tianzun" in front of her, only to see the face that was often seen in dramas, without sadness or joy, and without any emotional fluctuations.
"It seems that the promise of life and death cannot resist time. In just over three years, you have almost forgotten Jin Li." She heard the voice of "Yuanshi Tianzun" without discrimination or emotion.
"I have been sitting for three years, and I must make myself live a happier life in the future, just like eating and drinking occasionally." Shen Ruoxuan laughed at herself.
Meng Qi said calmly: "In my opinion, you are not doing it occasionally, nor are you just doing it to live a happier life."
"What?" Shen Ruoxuan narrowed her eyes and stared at the mysterious man in front of her.
Meng Qi's voice was steady and mellow: "With your strength of seven or eight orifices, and no hidden injuries, why do you need so many charcoal copper basins?"
At this level of strength, normal coldness can hardly affect martial artists. It is enough to put a copper plate of burning charcoal. There is no need to put it everywhere, as if someone will be cold.
Shen Ruoxuan's face changed drastically, and she stood up suddenly: "What do you mean?"
She saw "Yuanshi Tianzun" lightly raise his hand, and without looking back, he struck back with a palm, the airflow was compressed, and a strong wind was swung, which swept away the screen separating the inside and the outside, revealing the big bed inside.
On the bed lay a sleeping baby, about seven or eight months old, with a rosy face, very cute.
The gauze cover around seemed to be made of special materials, which had a significant weakening and partitioning effect on mental power.
"I, I..." Shen Ruoxuan stammered, "I want to leave him a legacy."
"Really?" Meng Qi was already 70% sure, and crushed the blood bead in his left hand.
A red light flowed through, covering the baby, and a faint red light appeared in his body in response.
"It is indeed the blood of the Jin family, Miss Shen, you acted too stiff just now." Meng Qi held back his pride and said calmly.
His acting is not good enough!
It is not so easy to forget a lover who died for each other. Even if he walked out, it would be easier for his family to accept him if he married someone than to find a lover!
Before he finished speaking, a figure suddenly jumped down from the beam of the house, his body spinning rapidly, and the power of his palms seemed to turn into a spiral, which was extremely terrifying, and set off a tornado, covering Meng Qi all around, blocking his escape route.
Half-step exterior scene!
The attacker had high cheekbones and a black mole under his right eyebrow, and it was Jin Li!
Facing the sudden attack, Meng Qi seemed to have anticipated it. He stretched out both hands at the same time, his ten fingers kept moving, and each formed a seal, like blooming flowers, exuding a calm and solid meaning.
In the eyes of the attackers, "Yuanshi Tianzun" suddenly became vast and heavy, vast and boundless, as if he had transformed into the earth, and it was difficult to shake him in the slightest!
