Chapter 235 I’ll sleep in this room too

Who in this world can make Jiang Yi call him daddy.

Then this person must be the happiest person in the world... Unfortunately, he is not yet.

Luo Wanqing was stunned at first, then she laughed so hard that she couldn't help pinching Jiang Yi's cheek, "When you say that, I'm really looking forward to it. Remember to call me when the time comes. My dear, my dear.”

“Luo Wanqing, this is not like you, you have really changed”

Jiang Yi took a deep look at the other party, "If you choose to take this path, I won't stop you. However, you can't kill Jiang Mo."

"Why should I kill him?" Luo Wanqing smiled. asked.

Jiang Yi sneered: "Others don't understand you, but I understand you. The most important thing about your double cultivation of the Hell of Bitter Fire is sacrifice, which requires the sacrifice of the other half. I don't know why you let Jiang Mo go. , but I firmly believe that you will kill him again in the future."

"What if I have to kill him?"

Luo Wanqing stared at her meaningfully.

Jiang Yi said calmly: "Of course I can't stop you, but...I won't make it easy for you either."

"Oh, didn't you say you were dismissive of that kid? Why did you threaten him in the blink of an eye? I am the palace."

Luo Wanqing looked at the woman in front of her with sarcastic eyes, "It turns out that our Mrs. Jiang is also duplicitous."

Jiang Yi said coldly: "You are. Don’t you really think that I don’t care about my niece? Even if Jiang Mo is not Qingchen’s husband, I will not let those two girls become widows.”

The corners of Luo Wanqing’s bright red lips curled up slightly. A seductive arc: "Have you ever thought that even without me, Jiang Mo would die somewhere else."

"Even if he dies in a latrine, he can't die in your hands, Luo Wanqing!"

Jiang Yi was rarely angry.

If anyone dared to threaten her like this, Luo Wanqing would have slapped her away with her arrogant and domineering temperament.

But for Jiang Yi in front of her, Luo Wanqing was not angry, but laughed: "Are you afraid that if I kill Jiang Mo, you will have to hate me and hate me, so you don't want Jiang Mo to Die in my hands?"

Jiang Yi sneered: "You are annoying enough now."

"That's such a pity. I clearly remember that when she was a child, Jiang Yi was the most attached to my eldest sister, and even liked to wear my underwear..."

"Luo Wanqing!"< br>
Jiang Yi's beautiful eyes were cold, and gradually, they were covered with dim colors.

The woman said softly, "I've brought you the words. It's up to you whether you want to or not. I don't want everyone to be unhappy."

Jiang Yi turned and left.

"You care about your niece so much, don't you hate your sister at all?" Luo Wanqing said in a calm tone.

Jiang Yi paused, looked back at the woman under the shadow of the Buddha statue, and slowly said:

"Do you hate it? Of course you hate my sister. But, I also remember my sister's death Finally, it was you who forced her way into the Nanhai Holy Sect and set up a monument for her, making her the first person in the Nanhai Holy Sect to have a tombstone after being expelled. "

Jiang Yi walked away. The beautiful back figure gradually disappeared into the temple.

Luo Wanqing put her hands behind her back, looked up at the Buddha statue, and said with a smile: "That's why I'm cheap."

——

In the evening, Ran Qingchen, who was dusty with travel, came to the small courtyard.

Seeing the couple chatting and laughing together, Ran Qingchen, who was exhausted physically and mentally, suddenly became angry and clenched her fists loudly.

I have been working so hard to find someone outside, but this Li Nanshuang is here to seduce her husband. It’s so outrageous!

The angry woman stepped forward and wanted to argue, but in the end she suppressed her anger.

After listening to Jiang Shouzhong's inference, Ran Qingchen was so shocked that he even forgot to be angry.

“Are you sure it’s Dan Dongchuan?”

Ran Qingchen’s face was filled with disbelief. You must know that just today, Dan Dongchuan had a quarrel with the people from the inner guard, because of Jiang Moming Unfair.

She could never imagine that it was this man who was murdering her husband.

“Pretty sure.”

Jiang Shouzhong nodded helplessly.

“Asshole!”

Ran Qingchen’s reaction was the same as Li Nanshuang’s. He was furious and wanted to stab the bastard to death with his sword, but was stopped.

But it was Li Nanshuang who stopped her this time.

Li Nanshuang took out the words Jiang Shouzhong used to persuade him before, and while persuading Ran Qingchen, he severely criticized the other party:

"After all, he is an official who has been entrusted with important tasks by the imperial court, so he acts so impulsively? Do you know what it means to alert the snake? Do you know what it means to lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds? Do you know what it means to make a decision and then act? Learn from me... ..."

Li Nanshuang raised her chin, looking proud and arrogant.

Ran Qingchen's face turned red when he was told, and he said angrily: "What you said was not told to you by Jiang Mo? Are you the only one who knows how to make plans before taking action?"

"What should I do? I don’t understand!”

Li Nanshuang was not convinced, but felt guilty.

Seeing that the enemies were about to quarrel as usual, Jiang Shouzhong quickly stepped in between the two women.

He turned to look at the tired woman, feeling distressed but also a little apologetic, "Qingchen, why don't you take a rest for a while, it will really hurt your body."

Ran Qingchen He took a few deep breaths, calmed down, gave Li Nanshuang a hard look, and then said:

"With the help of my aunt, I found the disguise mask craftsman you asked me to find. It's a man named Lao Cheng lives in Qingxiang Street and specializes in making disguise masks. He should be the one who made your disguise mask.

I didn't let my aunt catch him, for fear of disturbing the people behind me. >

But now we already know that the person who framed you is Dan Dongchuan, do we still need to find this old Cheng again? "

Jiang Shouzhong nodded and said: "Of course we have to look for it. The more clues we have, the better it will be for us. Tonight, Nan Shuang and I will visit that old man, hoping to get some useful clues from him. "

Ran Qingchen's beautiful eyes glanced at Li Nanshuang beside him, and suddenly said: "This time I will accompany you to investigate. "

"Huh? This..."

"Don't worry, I've been running around outside for the past two days, they won't be suspicious, I can pretend. ”

Ran Qingchen's tone was firm.

Just one Xia He is already very frustrating. Do you, Li Nanshuang, also want to help my husband hone his skills?

Are you worthy?

What skills can you hone?

Li Nanshuang said dissatisfied: "I am the boss of Noodles, and we have a tacit understanding of the case for so long. You will only waste time by accompanying him in the investigation."

A tacit understanding of a hammer.

Hearing this, Ran Qingchen became even more resolute, staring at Jiang Shouzhong with his beautiful eyes, "That's it, I also have a disguise mask. Let me change my clothes and set off."

The woman enters the house.

At this time, Jiang Shouzhong discovered that Ran Qingchen was carrying a baggage behind him.

This woman had already planned something.

"No, I have to go too!"

Li Nanshuang also ran into the house to change clothes.

Jiang Shouzhong rubbed his brows helplessly and said secretly: "Women are really troublesome, and two women are even more troublesome."

Soon, Ran Qingchen changed his clothes. Inky outfit.

The tight-fitting fabric outlines the graceful figure of a woman, making her taller and taller, her heroic figure even more glamorous.

Like an orchid in the dark night, it is both reserved and resolute.

A beauty is a beauty, no matter what style she looks good in.

Jiang Shouzhong sighed secretly.

Capturing the amazement in the man's eyes, Ran Qingchen felt a little proud in his eyes. He kept thinking about the words of his sister Hong'er's analysis in his heart, and secretly said: "As long as you fight for it, you will eventually gain something."

——

The three of them were all top-notch masters, but they took advantage of the moonlight to sneak under an ancient house on Qingxiang Street in about half an hour.

The main room in the courtyard was lit by a dim fire.

Because it has been investigated that the craftsman named Lao Cheng lives alone all year round, when Jiang Shouzhong confirmed that he was the only one in the house, he opened the door directly and entered.

Stepping into the room, the first thing you see is the faces hanging on the wall.

The face of an old man, the face of a young girl, the face of a rugged man, the face of a child... Each face has its own characteristics, as if it were ripped off from a human face, with a somewhat scary look. The lifelessness makes people extremely uncomfortable.

There was an old man sitting in the room. He had an ordinary appearance, with only a sparse beard on his chin.

At this time, a mask is being made at the table.

“Old Cheng.”

Jiang Shouzhong stared at the old man.

For the three people who suddenly broke into the house, I didn't look panicked. I was still busy making the mask in my hand, as if I was immersed in my own world and did not tolerate any distractions.

Seeing that the other party ignored them at all, Li Nanshuang rolled up his sleeves and started to speak with his fists.

Girls are used to this.

But this time Jiang Shouzhong stopped her and signaled the girl to wait quietly.

People will always devote themselves wholeheartedly to their favorite career to create their own works of art, without allowing anyone to disturb them.

He understands that these people are obsessed with their hobbies, and such people have very weird tempers.

If you interrupt rashly, you may make the other party resist. After all, you are just here to ask questions, so there is no need to be fussy.

The three of them waited for about an hour before the old man put down the mask in his hand.

But the mask was not finished. The old man grabbed it in his hand and threw it into the stove next to it.

Li Nanshuang’s watery apricot eyes widened.

She clearly saw that the mask was very delicately made, why did the old man destroy it?

"Why are you looking for the old man?"

The old man took out a piece of soft leather made of an unknown material from the water basin nearby, carefully placed it on his knees, and put on a black glove. , patting gently.

Jiang Shouzhong said: "Mr. Cheng, I want to ask you about someone."

Old Cheng raised his head and stared at Jiang Shouzhong for a moment, then said lightly: "I have seen you... To be precise , I have seen your portrait.”

Jiang Shouzhong was suddenly shocked.

You know, he is wearing a disguise mask now.

Even Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang didn't recognize him at first. How could this old man see through it at a glance?

"Is Mrs. Jiang okay?" Lao Cheng suddenly asked.

“What?”

Jiang Shouzhong didn’t react for a moment.

Lao Cheng pointed at the disguised mask on Jiang Shouzhong's face, "The mask you are wearing was made by my senior brother and I for Mrs. Jiang back then. There are twenty-two in total, eleven top-grade ones and eleven medium-grade ones. You This one is one of the best."

After a pause, Lao Cheng said in a hoarse voice: "I have made tens of thousands of masks in my life, and I remember every one of them very clearly."
< br>As soon as these words came out, the three people in the room were shocked and speechless.

What is a senior craftsman?

What is a master?

This is a craftsman who has reached the level of proficiency!

Jiang Shouzhong did not expect that the other party could tell at a glance that the mask on his face was given to him by Jiang Yi. Not only was he extremely impressed, but he also looked more respectful: "Since the old gentleman knows Mrs. Jiang, then I will not I’m going in circles, I want to ask someone.”

Lao Cheng rolled up the soft skin on his knees, soaked it in the water, and said slowly:

“Master told me to do it. In our profession, we should keep two things in mind. First, don’t ask too many questions. Only in this way can you live longer.

My senior brother will die very soon. It's miserable, two hands were chopped off, eyes were gouged, the blood was drained, and even the face was torn off... Do you think I will tell you?" Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang Er? The woman was horrified to hear this.

Jiang Shouzhong was silent for a while and said calmly: "Everyone follows rules. If you want to live, you must live by the rules. I understand this.

But rules are dead after all. Especially for a person like you who has abided by the rules all his life, but deep down he must really hate the rules. I believe you will speak up, but you need a reason to speak up."

Lao Cheng laughed and looked. Jiang Shouzhong said, "You are a very interesting young man. No wonder you are accompanied by two beauties."

Jiang Shouzhong did not speak, quietly waiting for the other party to make an offer.

Lao Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Well, let me ask you two questions. If you can answer them, I will cooperate with you."

"Okay."

Jiang Shouzhong nodded lightly. .

Lao Chengdao: "The first question is a question that I have been thinking about for half my life. Many people have answered it, but no one has satisfied me - how many sides do people have?"

How many sides does a person have?

Li Nanshuang said bluntly: "Of course it's one side. After all, a person only has one face."

Ran Qingchen frowned and did not speak.

This is a very philosophical and vague question. People will disguise themselves and wear masks, so it is difficult to say how many sides a person has.

Jiang Shouzhong said softly: "Confucianism has the theory of 'three transformations of a gentleman', Taoism has the theory of 'two changes in one life', and Buddhism has the theory of 'original face'. Everyone can have different faces, but In the final analysis, it is nothing more than the face of three realms.

The first is the face of self. In the world of all living beings, you need to constantly pretend to change yourself in order to live. The second is the face of self. That is the truest heart. The third is the face of the true self, which is transcendent and consistent with the Dao, and is no longer attached to the so-called face.”

After listening to Jiang Shouzhong's answer, Lao Cheng smiled and said: "This is a tricky answer."

Jiang Shouzhong also laughed, "But at least the answer is correct, isn't it?"

Old Cheng nodded. , and continued to ask the second question: "How many disguise masks am I wearing on my face?"

The expressions of Ran Qingchen and Li Nanshuang changed.

After all, Jiang Mo is not a master of disguise, so how could he tell at a glance how many masks he was wearing?

What's more, if the old man wears it himself, his mask must be the best in the world and the least likely to be seen.

This second question is obviously deliberately difficult.

Jiang Shouzhong stared at the other person's face carefully, and after a while, he gave an answer: "Three."

Lao Cheng smiled slightly: "If you want to ask anything, just ask."

The two women looked stunned.

It's actually right?

How did Jiang Mo figure this out?

Jiang Shouzhong raised his own question: "I want to know who took my portrait to make a disguise mask for you. If the old man doesn't know his name, can you describe him? What he looks like.”

“I don’t know his name, nor his true identity, because he wears a monkey mask.”

Mr. Cheng said slowly, “Actually, people are the best. A good disguise is to cover your face. The disguise mask is attached to the facial bones. No matter how beautiful the mask is, it can't cover the bone shape, so covering the face is the best way, like this girl."
< br>

Mr. Cheng pointed at Li Nanshuang who was wearing a bamboo hat.

Jiang Shouzhong frowned and asked: "Except for the monkey mask, does he have no other characteristics?"

Mr. Cheng said: "Yes, he doesn't have the little finger on his right hand. In addition, There is a smell on his body, which I have smelled similar to on someone before. It is a spice unique to Jinsexie, called Huhunxiang."

The little finger on the right hand does not have...

Jiang Shouzhong's eyes moved and he said secretly: "It seems that the man in the monkey mask wore his disguise mask and killed Murong Shuo."

Who is this person?

As for Jinsexie, Jiang Shouzhong had heard about it. It was a place for fireworks in Qingzhou.

It was once known as Qingzhou Shuangyan together with Mengyao Pavilion.

Since the massacre in Mengyao Pavilion, the Jinsexie family is now the dominant one and has become the entertainment venue of choice for the upper class in Qingzhou.

It seems that the next direction of investigation is Jinsexie.

Find someone wearing a monkey mask.

Jiang Shouzhong clasped his fists and thanked: "Thank you, Mr. Cheng. I won't disturb you anymore and say goodbye."

Jiang Shouzhong left with his two daughters.

……

When we came to the street, there was no one on the street late at night.

"I didn't expect that Jinsexie would be involved again. This place is a place where many high-ranking officials and nobles in Qingzhou spend their time. The big boss behind it is said to be very rich and powerful."

Ran Qingchen looked worried.

Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said: "There is nothing to worry about. Even Dan Dongchuan has become an enemy. It is not surprising that a more powerful enemy will appear.

At present, Dan Dongchuan will kill me After drawing a portrait of Xu Wenqing, he handed it over to a man wearing a monkey mask, who then carried out the frame-up and murder.

Now, we are here. One more line of investigation, which is a good thing.”

Ran Qingchen nodded.

In any case, the investigation paid off.

“By the way, braised noodles, how did you see that the old man was wearing three pieces of noodles?” Li Nanshuang asked curiously.

Ran Qingchen also looked at her husband curiously, her beautiful eyes shining.

The longer she stayed with her husband, the more she felt that he was really powerful.

This made her proud and a little annoyed at the same time.

My past self was too pretentious and lacked vision. If I could have discovered this treasured man earlier, I would not have ended up in this situation now.

Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said, "I guessed."

"Huh?"

The two women were stunned.

Seeing that the man's expression did not look like he was lying, and both women were speechless, Li Nanshuang sighed: "Do smart people have good luck? They can all be wrong."

But Jiang Shouzhong shook his head, " I guessed wrong.”

The two women were completely confused.

Ran Qingchen felt that his scalp was beginning to itch and his mind was about to fly out. He asked in confusion: "Since I guessed wrong, why is Mr. Cheng still willing to answer your question?"

" Yes, yes, does Mr. Cheng have good intentions?”

Li Nanshuang asked next.

Jiang Shouzhong looked up at the bright moonlight and said, "It doesn't matter what the answer is. What's important is that you need to guess wrong. As long as you guess wrong, he will answer your question. ”

“What do you mean? ”

Li Nanshuang didn’t understand at all.

Ran Qingchen has some signs of taste: "For a craftsman like him, what he cares most about is whether others can see the flaws in his works. If you answer correctly, it means that he has done a good job." His disguise is not good and it is easy for others to see it, which is undoubtedly the most devastating thing for him.”

Jiang Shouzhong smiled and nodded: "That's probably the truth. It's actually easy to see a person's personality when we first meet.

He exposed my true face and told me the origin of the mask on my face. , It's still a bit showy. People like this care most about their own works. Even if I see it, I will deliberately say something wrong."

Li Nanshuang patted his forehead and said helplessly: "I'm so tired. "

The girl suddenly asked: "Steamed noodles, what if you accidentally masked yourself?"

"No, because I know he wears several masks on his face. .”

Jiang Shouzhong shook his head gently.

“You know?”

The two women were dumbfounded again.

"Yes, because he didn't wear the disguise at all."

"..."

The two girls didn't know what to say, their minds were in a daze.

Jiang Shouzhong didn't show off, and said with a smile:

"From the time we entered the house, he was making a mask. In our opinion, the mask was perfect, but he still didn't Satisfied, destroyed. It shows that this person is pursuing perfection in his heart.

Since he pursues perfection, he must always be dissatisfied with the disguise he made. Make the most perfect disguise mask in the world. Over time, he became too lazy to wear these "defective products".

The first question he asked was somewhat out of touch with the world. People with this mentality care more about their 'real self', so I think he doesn't wear a disguise mask at all."

After Jiang Shouzhong's explanation, the two girls suddenly understood.

Ran Qingchen smiled bitterly and said: "I feel a little sympathized with those people who want to deal with you secretly. No matter how deep the mouse is hidden, you can find it."

Li Nanshuang He nodded with deep understanding.

......

Back in the small courtyard, Jiang Shouzhong was ready to rest and recuperate.

Ran Qingchen said casually: "Jiang Mo, why don't we find an inn to stay at? This place will disturb Erye Wen and Nan Shuang."

"No, I slept with the braised noodles last night. Just squeeze it."

Li Nanshuang said.

“What!?”

Ran Qingchen raised his voice with a look of disbelief on his face, “Did you sleep with Jiang Mo last night!?”

Li Nanshuang looked like why are you making such a fuss: "It's normal. My second uncle's house is too small to live in, so I can only live in my room."

"Sleep in the same bed?"

" Well, that’s right.”

Ran Qingchen was about to faint.

My husband has been used by a second woman and is not clean again.

Jiang Shouzhong explained at the right time: "I just squeezed into a bed and did nothing."

Hearing this, Ran Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise Li Nanshuang would have had to hone his skills.

"I will sleep in this room tonight too!"

Ran Qingchen clenched his fists.

At most, three people can squeeze into one bed, and personal supervision is the most effective method.
