Chapter 168 7 Meishan Villa

Chapter 168 Qimei Villa
Chu Qing asked Lu Zhi about some details of last night, such as where they stayed and which direction the other party went when he left.

Is there anyone else besides Mr. Mei?
The one who came to the rescue later, did he use any special martial arts?

After learning as much as possible, Chu Qing left the inn tenderly.

He gave the dagger to Wenrou, who sniffed it and then led Chu Qing to find it.

The heavy snow from last night has not stopped yet, and the ground is already covered with a thick layer of snow.

Wenrou learned Feixu Qingyan Kung Fu from Chu Qing. Although her attainments were not very deep, it was much better than her previous Qinggong.

The two of them performed Qinggong. Chu Qing could walk on the snow without leaving any trace, while Wenrou could walk with one step at a time.

In just a stick of incense's time, they had arrived at the place where the incident happened last night.

It was just covered with heavy snow overnight, and all the traces were hidden under the snow.

Gentle raised her nose and sniffed:

“This snowstorm has affected the smell a bit, but I can still smell the scent of the owner of the dagger.

"Besides that... there is another smell I smelled before."

"Thinking of peace?"

These two people and Wen Rou had met each other before. When they were at the Chu family, they had chased Xin Youhen together.

Wenrou shook her head:
"Not them. If I must describe their inner strength, it is as clear as glass, and has a faint scent of sandalwood."

Chu Qing couldn't imagine that something as clear as glass could actually be a taste?
The sandalwood in the back is understandable, after all, those two are nuns practicing with their hair uncut, right?

The ancient Buddha with green lamps all year round...

Chu Qing grinned, thinking of the ancient Buddha with green lamps, and then of the two people, Nian Xin and Nian An, who were planning to unify the world of the green forest. He just couldn't combine these two elements together.

It's simply blasphemy against Buddha.

"It's the scholar we met that night!"

Wenrou revealed the answer at this time.

Chu Qing was stunned and touched his chin:
"Yes, Lu Zhi said that someone came to his rescue and that's how he got a chance to escape.

"The scholar and the woman in black are inextricably linked. The person he wants to save is not Lu Zhi...but that woman."

The story of these two people left a deep impression on Chu Qing.

One is a martial arts master, the other is average.

One wanted to kill the other, while the other could have killed the other with one blow, but he just wanted to escape.

Seeing that the other party couldn't catch up, he stopped and waited...

Is this some kind of fun?

If it was this scholar who came to save people, then everything would be right.

"interesting."

Chu Qing smiled, and the flying snow stopped at his fingertips. He gently rubbed the cold snowflakes and suddenly became curious:
"Does this cold weather have any effect on your nose?"

Wenrou glanced at Chu Qing and nodded silently:

“Yes, but the impact is not that great.”

"Then let's continue looking."

"it is good."

Wenrou continued to lead Chu Qing, following the smell.

All traces of what happened last night were covered by the snow, and the footprints they left as they passed by quickly disappeared in the heavy snow.

The path under our feet gradually shifted and led into a remote area.

Suddenly the two people stopped and saw a tree lying on the ground not far ahead.

The flying snow blocked the normal way.

The people were naturally unharmed, but several carriages fell in front of the giant tree.

The carriage has no carriage and is used to carry goods. Now all the goods and horses on the carriage are gone. It must be that the road is blocked, so the escort took the goods and horses away and left the carriage here for the time being.

Chu Qing looked up at the flag on the carriage, which had four big characters on it: Weiyuan Escort Agency!

"The car of Weiyuan Escort Agency?"

Chu Qing looked at the words "Weiyuan Escort Agency" with a strange expression.

"Third brother, do you know this Weiyuan Escort Agency?"

Wenrou was a little curious.

Chu Qing nodded:

"Weiyuan Escort Agency is one of the major escort agencies in Nanling.

"The chief escort is 'Nanling Iron Sword' Chen Zhengnan... He is from the Taiheng Sect."

"Tai Heng Men?"

Wenrou thought of Ling Beichen who was beaten to death by Chu Qing in Luochen Villa. That man was also from Taiheng Sect.

Tai Heng’s number one sword twenty years ago.

Chu Qing smacked his lips:

"I thought I wouldn't run into people from Tai Heng Sect so soon. We'd have to pass Ghost God Gorge and leave the Fiery Hall before we could have any intersection.

“I forgot that among the Tai Heng Sect’s disciples, there are also many wandering around.

"It seems that Chen Zhengnan and Ling Beichen are still brothers...

“In the dispute over the leader of Tai Heng Sect, he stood on Ling Beichen’s side. It is said that it was because of this incident that he made up his mind to set up his own sect, which led to the establishment of Weiyuan Escort Agency.

“Let’s go, the escort agency won’t just abandon the carriage on the roadside.

"They shouldn't be too far away. I guess they are looking for a place to avoid the snowstorm after their carriage fell into the water."

If fate permits, it would be no problem to meet this Chief Escort Chen.

It would be fine if there was no chance, after all, he still carried Ling Beichen's ashes with him.

It is better to settle this dispute with Ling Beichen and Tai Hengmen at Tai Hengmen.

Wenrou followed the smell and walked deeper into the forest. Although the forest was covered with snow, there was a narrow path in the forest. After crossing this path, the view in front of her suddenly opened up.

A villa located deep in the forest appeared in front of the two people.

This villa is hidden in the woods, blocked by thick trees, and it is really hard to find unless you get close to it.

Above the gate of the villa, there is a plaque hanging high with four big characters inscribed on it: Qimei Villa!
"plum……"

Chu Qing and Wenrou looked at each other.

Gentle and soft voice said:

“The smells all point to this place.”

"Then let's explore."

Chu Qing came directly to the gate of the villa with gentleness.

He reached out and took the door knocker, knocking gently a few times.

After a while, footsteps were heard and a square hole opened on the side door, revealing a pair of eyes.

I thought the person who answered the door would be the concierge, but I didn't expect that a person with big, watery eyes, beautiful eyebrows, and a voice as sweet as an oriole chirping out of a valley would appear from the square hole:
"Who's outside the door?"

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, cupped his hands and said:
“The mountains were blocked by heavy snow, making the roads difficult to travel.

"I happened to see your manor, so I wanted to come and take shelter from the wind and snow. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you."

"What a handsome young man!"

When those eyes saw Chu Qing's face, a bright color suddenly flashed across them.

Then with a click, the square hole was closed.

There was a sound of a bolt being pulled from inside the door. With a creak, the side door opened, and a pretty and charming girl in emerald green gauze appeared in front of Chu Qing and Wenrou.

"Sir, please come in quickly. Oh, there are two of you.

"Hurry, it's windy and snowy outside, and it's very cold. Gentlemen, please come inside and warm up." He then opened the door and invited Chu Qing and Wenrou to go in.

The gentle eyes were still empty, but in her heart she felt inexplicably unhappy.

But I can’t tell where the displeasure comes from.

I looked up at Chu Qing and saw him nod slightly:

"In that case, I am sorry to bother you."

He turned around to look at Wenrou, gestured, and then took her in.

Seeing this, the girl also hurried in.

He stuck his head out of the door and looked around, as if he was afraid of being discovered. Seeing that there was no one nearby, he quickly closed the side door and locked it with the bolt.

After passing the main gate, there is a shadow wall with only one big word "Mei" on it!
Chu Qing smiled and said:

"This Qimei Villa is indeed very elegant. The characters are written with such exquisite craftsmanship, but I wonder who wrote them?"

"You have good eyesight, sir."

The girl smiled and said:
"This is the handwritten letter of our owner. This is the villa of our owner.

"I originally wanted to call it Plum Manor Villa, but later I changed it... By the way, there are quite a few people coming to the manor today. They all came here to avoid the heavy snowstorm. It's a really good day."

She talked and laughed, leading the way.

Chu Qing had a smile on his face, but when the girl came to the front, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

The girl was dressed very coolly, with a light gauze covering her undergarments, her taut figure faintly visible underneath the gauze.

If it were an ordinary man, he would probably only focus on her graceful movements, her jumping and falling posture, and her round and straight body as she swayed with her steps...

But she forgot, why didn't she feel cold at all in such a freezing cold day?

Wenrou followed behind Chu Qing, step by step, and the more she walked, the more she felt that everything around her was disgusting and unpleasant.

Although the scenery inside the villa is beautiful, with pavilions, towers, rockery and pools, it can be said that there is a new scene at every step, and it is unique in craftsmanship.

But there is something weird about it.

She was a person of few emotions and rarely experienced such torment.

It was not until the girl led Chu Qing and Wenrou to stand in front of the main hall of the villa that Wenrou came to her senses and felt that something was wrong with her.

Then the girl said:
"You two will serve tea in the main hall first. Our master has been busy all night and has just gone to bed.

"I'll have my elder sister come over to say hello to you guys later."

As she spoke, she stretched out her arm to lead, Chu Qing nodded, and led Wenrou into the main hall.

As soon as Chu Qing entered the door, he raised his eyebrows.

There are indeed quite a few people in this hall...but there are quite a few familiar faces.

Sitting on the upper left side was a middle-aged man, dressed in brocade clothes, with a square face and a serious expression.

There was a long sword at his side and a number of people were standing behind him, all of them dressed like bodyguards.

Among them were large boxes sealed with the words "Weiyuan Escort Agency".

Thinking about the fact that the car of Weiyuan Escort Agency was not far from here, it was obvious that this person was Chen Zhengnan, the Iron Sword of Nanling!

Below him was a little old man curled up in a chair, playing with his pipe...

Not long ago, in Dingxing City, Libiejian appeared and wanted to kill Liu Yulai.

This old man was a martial arts expert recruited by Liu Yu, but the moment he recognized the Farewell Sword, he fled from the battlefield.

I didn't expect to end up here.

Chu Qing didn't recognize the person sitting below the old man.

The man was dressed in black and had a gloomy face. He lowered his head and fiddled with his nails with an extremely focused expression.

It’s like my ten fingers are this world.

To be precise, there were two people sitting opposite Chen Zhengnan.

Sitting on the chair is Cao Qiupu, the White Horse and Golden Sword...

Standing behind him was the beautiful lady Lingfei, one of the seventy-two masters on the Zhuxie List.

When seeing these two people, Chu Qing really couldn't believe his eyes.

Didn’t these two find a place to live in seclusion?
Could it be that he has set his eyes on Qimei Villa and is planning to take over its home?

When the previous task chain was activated, Chu Qing thought about secretly killing Hua Meiren, but later felt that it was too early... Now that he had encountered it, was he secretly giving himself a chance?

The person sitting below Cao Qiupu was also an acquaintance...

Little Flower Boy, Hua Jinnian!
But now Hua Jinnian looks listless, as if he is not feeling well, and no one knows what is going on.

The last one is the scholar I met in Tiehuan Town.

He is indeed here.

Chu Qing took in everyone present at a glance and was speechless for a moment. Are these people gathered here for a meeting?
Everyone also turned their eyes to Chu Qing, and their expressions were different for a moment.

Cao Qiupu looked overjoyed, but he didn't know what he was thinking about, and he subconsciously protected the beautiful woman behind him.

Hua Jinnian stood up immediately and walked to Chu Qing:
"Third Master, we meet again!!"

As he spoke, he looked at Wenrou, but he was a little confused, and for a moment he obviously didn't recognize her.

Chu Qing clasped his fists:

"Brother Hua, we haven't seen each other for a few days. Why do you seem so..."

I wanted to say, "Why do I feel like my body has been hollowed out?", but since we are in public, it would not sound nice to say it.

And if we really have to talk about being hollowed out, shouldn’t it be Cao Qiupu who was hollowed out?

It couldn't be that Hua Jinnian first encountered a male rapist and then a female hooligan, right?

This person is too miserable...

Hua Jinnian's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't.

It was Cao Qiupu who stood up:
"Third brother, long time no see."

Chu Qing glanced at him, then looked at Miss Lingfei behind him, and chuckled:
"How are you two?"

Miss Lingfei frowned slightly, remembering how she was almost beaten to death by Chu Qing at the observatory last time... She wanted to put on a show and trick him, but ended up losing more than she gained, and her identity was discovered by Cao Qiupu.

Now that we meet again, I don’t like the way I look at you.

Cao Qiupu smiled and said:

"Thanks to my third brother, it's not bad."

The scholar watched these people reminiscing about the past, not knowing what he was thinking. He nodded to Chu Qing without saying much.

The two people only met once in Tiehuan Town and they had no friendship, so this little bit of contact was enough.

The three people opposite were a little surprised. How come these people knew each other?
Then Chen Zhengnan spoke:
"The Third Young Master? Could it be that... the one who killed people everywhere in Divine Blade City and fought against Ling Beichen in front of Luochen Villa... the Third Young Master of Crazy Blade?"

Having said this, he looked towards Chu Qing.

There was a faint flash of sharpness in it.

Hua Jinnian's face changed:
"So what? Chief Escort Chen should know that... he has caused many evil deeds to Northern Ministers, and everyone has the right to kill him!"

"Hahaha!!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhengnan burst into laughter. The laughter came out with his internal strength, shaking the entire hall slightly.

The snow on the eaves fell, stirring up flying petals.

After laughing, Chen Zhengnan's face suddenly turned gloomy:

"What a man who can be killed by everyone!
"What a chivalrous young man who speaks up for justice...

"Chen offers you a toast!"

After saying this, he reached out and slapped the table suddenly.

The teacup on the table suddenly jumped up. Chen Zhengnan flicked his sleeves and brushed the teacup. The teacup immediately whizzed towards Hua Jinnian!
