Chapter 202 The Master Behind the Scenes
The Madam of Hualou saw that the railing of her house had fallen down and hit someone, who was escorted by the patrol team. She hurriedly went downstairs and said, "Masters, I'm really sorry. We This railing has just been reinforced. The repairmen must have cut corners. It was really not intentional."
After checking, the patrol team said to the guard chief: "There is indeed no trace of the spell being cast. It must be an accident. "
Tang Yue also went upstairs and checked. It was indeed the case, but she also noticed that the repairman did not cut corners and used the best rivets to fix them. She often did it herself. As a craftsman, I know that after such reinforcement, it is impossible for the railing to fall without a huge external impact, let alone be blown down by the wind.
Like what happened to Zhao Hao, did chance become inevitable? Or is it just a coincidence?
This kind of thing may not seem serious at all, and the people around Tang Yue are not hurt, but it makes people very upset. Who wants to encounter such inexplicable accidents every day? People who do this kind of thing had better not be caught by her, now she has dark vines to feed.
After going to the station for interrogation, the remaining gangsters who were still awake confessed that the Peng family asked them to do this and asked them to come from another town to look for trouble.
Tang Yue had no impression of the Peng family, "The Peng family doesn't seem to live near this town."
The guard chief said to her cryptically: "The Peng family is among these local ruffians. Near the town where I live, the largest family there is the Dongfang family."
One of the gangsters said hurriedly: "The Peng family is the affiliated family of the Dongfang family."
Tang Yue was speechless, Dongfang Xue did this? Just doubt what happened between Senior Brother Ji and her in the secret realm? But she is just a child who is not yet twelve years old.
The chief of guard sent her out, "We will go to the Peng family to ask about this matter and let them give you an explanation. But we probably can't ask the Dongfang family. In short, we will deal with it within the limits of our abilities. These people make them afraid to take action against Baixing Store again."
Tang Yue knew that this was the limit of what the guard chief could do. "I understand the difficulty. Thank you."
"There are also those who were bribed in our patrol team. I will also punish them and send the results to Xuanying Cave later."
"Thank you very much. ”
Tang Yue and the waiter went back to Baixing Store and bought some snacks. She never used credit in her own store, which would make the accounting unclear. She always paid for them.
Before leaving, he told the shopkeeper, "If you have any questions, just call me. I'll come over when I see you." The shopkeeper didn't call her, obviously because he was afraid of disturbing her.
"Okay, please go slowly." The shopkeeper feels more at ease. With the protection of his own lady, he is not afraid that this kind of thing will happen again.
Tang Yue bought some fresh fruits and vegetables on the road, and went back to eat hot pot with her senior sister. She had prepared the hot pot seasoning before, and now she had prepared the soup base and cooked it directly.
Shang Fanling heard about what happened in the small town and was equally puzzled, "Dongfang Xue is targeting you just because you and Ji Chongguang are in the same secret realm illusion formation? But you are so old Xiao, she really shouldn’t.”
Tang Yue thought for a while, and she probably had a sixth sense as a woman. What happened between her and Brother Ji in the illusion could not be said to be innocent, but she decided to keep it in her stomach.
“It may also be for Tu Yunxin and Shui Wanqiu. Their brothers died in the secret realm, and the person who created the secret realm was Meng Furong. Now that she is with me, I will take revenge for her. Their brother should take revenge.”
The animal meat rolls were cut by senior sister on the spot. They are very thin and cooked after just a few simmers in the pot. They are tender and delicious and paired with the sauce she learned from senior brother Qian. Simply delicious.
Senior Sister Shang, who has never cared much about appetite, also praised: "The Wuji mountain animal meat is delicious, and paired with the soup base and sauce you prepared, it is so delicious. I have never seen it in Kunwu City. I have eaten such delicacies before."
Tang Yue smiled, "Wuji Mountain is a rare geomantic treasure land with abundant spiritual energy. The beasts raised are much better than those in other places, and the quality of the meat is naturally different. I learned the sauce from a senior brother who is also a good eater. I will introduce you to him if I have the opportunity."
"Okay, we will invite other friends to go to the forest together. Barbecue must be very interesting." After Shang Fanling said this, she was also surprised at her change. In the past, she could stay in her room and never leave the room. Now she can invite relatives and friends to have gatherings. Everything happened after meeting my junior sister. "Senior sister, your suggestion is really good. Let's invite everyone to have a picnic together during the holiday. My cousin and sister-in-law will definitely be very happy." She happened to meet two senior brothers, Tu Wenzhou and Xu Tianwen, and felt that they were very close to each other. This was a great opportunity. A good opportunity to reduce friendship.
After Shang Fanling was interrupted by the delicious food, she remembered the topic just now. She sincerely hoped that junior sister’s life would be safe and smooth, so she said: “Junior sister, do you want to take this It's best to talk to Elder Shui about it to resolve the grudges between you."
Tang Yue said: "I will tell Grandpa about this matter. Now the Tu family and the Shui family are openly talking. They all agreed not to pursue the case, but it was inevitable for them to be emotionally sad and angry for their dead son, so they did these things to embarrass me.”
The even stranger thing is that both of the people who targeted her have suffered. "Accident", didn't that person secretly want to harm her, but take revenge for her?
Tang Yue shook her head in her heart. Whether it was to harm her or to help her avenge her, she didn't like such an inexplicable method. Moreover, these two people had already paid the price for what they had done and would not suffer greater sins. .
Grandpa came back from a friend’s party and happened to catch them having dessert after dinner, so he chatted with them, watched the stars, and ate desserts from Baixing Shop.
Shui Xuanying praised: "This almond tofu is good, cool, sweet and refreshing, very suitable for eating in such a hot weather."
Tang Yue was very happy, "If you like it, I will give it to you I’ll cook it for you.”
“You two are so busy with schoolwork, how can you have time like this? If I want to eat, just go to Baixing’s shop and buy it. I heard that someone is looking for Baixing today. Trouble?"
"Yes." Tang Yue told his grandfather.
Shui Xuanying stroked his beard, "We claim to be a big family, but they do all kinds of dirty things. I will warn them tomorrow. In my position, I can do a lot of bad things to them." . I just sympathized with them for losing their favored child and tolerated it. It didn’t mean that my temper had improved.”
Tang Yue thought about it, that’s right. Grandpa is the elder of the main peak and is responsible for managing Wuji Mountain. Even if these big families cannot be affected by their affairs, a small embarrassment is enough for them to bear.
"Thank you, grandpa, but you don't have to worry too much. I can handle it now. I guess they have done this too much and will gradually give up after they find it useless."
Shang Fanling also said: "I will also help A Yue and prevent others from hurting her."
The grandfather was relieved. It seemed that his granddaughter's friend was still very reliable. The three of them chatted for a while, and he mentioned something, "Something strange happened in the third-level warehouse of Wuji Mountain recently. Many geniuses and treasures disappeared, but the monks in charge found that There is no trace of who stole it, no one knows it."
Tang Yue asked: "What kind of genius treasure is it?"
Shui Xuanying said casually. He said: "It's some herbs and some mustard seeds, but the most precious magic weapon in the treasure house is fine." He didn't care much about the lost things and just asked his disciples to investigate more closely.
Tang Yue suddenly thought of a possibility, "Are these genius treasures living things?"
Shui Xuanying nodded, "When you say so, it is true. That's right, those genius treasures contain vitality, inanimate charms, spiritual weapons and magic weapons are safe and sound."
"I'm afraid this was not done by humans." Tang Yue explained the existence of the vines to his grandfather. Regarding the matter, Shang Fanling also added some information.
Shui Xuanying became a little more serious at this time, "But the vines you handed in should be taken to the Spiritual Plant Garden for study and will not be placed in the treasure house, but I will ask them to pay attention to whether there are any black Of vines.”
Tang Yue also thought of a possibility, that is, there are not only dark vines in the secret realm.
