In Yangzhou City, many well-informed city foxes and community rats have felt that something is slightly wrong with the atmosphere in the city since yesterday, but they cannot say what is specifically wrong, so they can only treat it as an illusion.
The sun was still slanting toward the east in the morning. Jia Lian and others traveled thousands of miles overnight and arrived outside Yangzhou City in the morning. The city gate happened to be open. The group was not in a hurry at this time. They entered the city and found
I went to an inn and asked for a few things to go to my room. After washing myself, I meditated and adjusted my breath for more than an hour.
After everyone in the legion had recovered their vitality, they went down to the inn to have a meal together. Then Jia Lian led a few people Shi Shiran to the direction of the Lin Mansion. From a distance, he saw the Lin family's residence in Yangzhou.
Outside the gate of the mansion, there is a vast expanse of white, with people hanging in white cloth and wearing mourning clothes coming in and out all the time.
When Jia Lian, who was walking at the front, saw this scene, his body involuntarily paused for a moment before continuing to move forward.
From a distance, the guard at the gatehouse of Lin Mansion noticed this group of people wearing luxurious uniforms. Seeing that they were coming straight to his house, he quickly separated two people to greet them. Some people also ran to the house to get a message from the steward.
.
"Master, my family is having a funeral today, please..."
Jia Lian looked at the Lin Mansion servant who was greeting him with a dull expression and said nothing.
When the servant saw Jia Lian acting like this, he was a little confused. Behind him, a steward who was also dressed in mourning clothes came out of the Lin Mansion - Lin Er. When Lin Er saw Jia Lian's familiar face, he rubbed his hands in disbelief.
eyes, and then hurriedly rolled forward and crawled forward.
"Ouch! Mr. Cousin, you are here. Mr. Cousin, please come in quickly... Go and see my young lady and young master. The young lady has not had any water since my wife had an accident the day before yesterday. She has fainted from crying twice. Young Master
I am also a little confused, Mr. Biao..."
"Why are you making noise! Why don't you lead the way!"
"Yes, yes! Master Cousin, please come quickly."
Jia Lian led only five of his guards into the Lin Mansion. Instead of going directly to the mourning hall, he went straight to Lin Daiyu's small courtyard.
As for the other personal guards, three of them had been on duty at the Yangzhou stronghold and had already gone to take over the manpower in the stronghold.
The others each had their own means in the market and went to investigate the situation separately.
"Young Master Cousin, my lady cried quietly until midnight again last night. What's wrong with that? My Master is just sitting in the mourning hall now. My Young Master is making trouble every day to ask for his mother... I would like to ask Young Master Cousin to be my young lady's little one."
Master, please think of a way and come up with an idea~"
Outside Xiao Daiyu's room, Jia Lian looked from a distance at the two little people curled up on the bed, frowning and sleeping in each other's arms. Next to them, Daiyu's wet nurse was whispering to Jia Lian.
Situations and worries over the past two days.
"I know, I'll be fine if I'm here!"
Jia Lian comforted Nurse Daiyu and motioned for them to move away before picking up the [Blue Dragon Jade] that the Second Soul controlled by the Second Soul to fly back to join them last night. During this period, the Second Soul stayed in the jade.
A series of low-level wood spells have been integrated and can now be cast using Yu Zhong's "mana", including the "Praise of Life" that Lu Xiaobai once cast!
Jia Lian walked into Xiao Daiyu's boudoir, came to her bedside, activated the [Blue Dragon Jade], and a condensed emerald green mist quietly appeared, slowly spreading towards Sister Lin, who looked increasingly thinner on the bed.
And Xiao Linyong shrouded her in her arms.
"Okay, let Yu'er and Yong'er have a good sleep. They should be fine when they wake up. Manager Lin, please take me to the mourning hall!"
…
On the side of Zhonglin Hall, Jia Min's mourning hall, as Jia Lian stepped in, sitting on the big chair to the left of Jia Min's coffin, Lin Ruhai, who looked haggard, finally spoke hoarsely.
"Lian'er, you're here, go see Min'er!"
Jia Lian, however, did not even look at Lin Ruhai, and went straight to Jia Min's coffin. The coffin lid had not yet been closed, but according to Jia Lian's spiritual sense, Jia Min was indeed freezing to the bone!
Just like Jia Lian's mood at the moment...
"I once told you that I couldn't find any words of enlightenment about reading and nourishing my energy. I was only a little touched by the saying 'a gentleman has no weapons'. In fact, it's not the case. I just don't want to become the killer that the guards thought I was.
With such a god-like appearance, I really don’t want to read “A Man’s Journey” in this world!
But why, why do some people always seek death?"
With Jia Lian's astonishing spiritual awareness at the third level of God Refining, even though Jia Min's body was now covered in blood and his flesh and blood gradually melted, he could still tell at a glance that Jia Min did not die from an acute illness or trauma, but from poison!
A chronic poison!
At this moment, the violent murderous intention that was suppressed in Jia Lian's heart could no longer be tolerated any longer! A bone-chilling frost-like chill suddenly spread from Jia Lian's body like a strong wind, and the temperature in the air seemed to drop by more than ten degrees in an instant.
Everyone shuddered violently!
"Lin Ruhai! Who did it? Don't tell me you don't know!"
Lin Ruhai's dull expression was finally touched. He looked at the violent and violent young man in front of him in great surprise. It seemed that he had never expected that the gentle and elegant young master in his impression would have such a side!
Although he was called by his name by the junior in front of him, Lin Ruhai's mood at this moment was mostly relief. He barely smiled and replied:
"Don't worry, Lian'er, my uncle will not let go of any of those who took action."
Jia Lian's expression had returned to calmness, and he glanced at Lin Ruhai indifferently.
"That's all?"
Lin Ruhai's calm expression finally changed significantly this time. The muscles on his face twisted and showed an expression that was half painful to the bone, and then he suddenly regained his composure.
"For the world, for the country, the country, the overall situation... is the most important thing!"
Jia Lian did not comment, bent down and gently pushed the coffin lid, firmly closed the coffin board for Jia Min, then turned around and walked out resolutely.
"That's your overall situation, not mine or the Jia family's!"
After stepping out of the mourning hall gate, Jia Lian paused, coldly said a word, and strode forward without looking back.
Lin Er, who had been following Jia Lian, although he was frightened by Jia Lian's terrifying momentum in the mourning hall and worried about his dispute with his master, he still led Jia Lian and his bodyguards behind him to the courtyard where Jia Lian lived last time.
Then he retreated tremblingly.
Jia Lian, who originally did not plan to live in the Lin Mansion anymore, finally decided to stay when he saw Daiyu and Lin Yong, nurses looking at him worriedly not far away.
Just at this time, the three people who went to take over the Yangzhou stronghold came back.
"Have you checked everything out?"
"General, there are many people involved in Miss Min's matter, including the eight major salt merchants in Yangzhou, the three major salt merchants in Hangzhou, and even... the maid who poisoned her was sent here by the Zhen family."
"Ha~ there are a lot of people, it's great! You can kill them all!"
Jia Lian took a deep breath, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his lips, and directly issued the order without asking whether [Jia Lian's army] was assembled in place.
"Kill! Exterminate the family! Leave no chickens or dogs behind!"
…
In the quiet night of the night, where the eight major salt merchant families living in various directions in Yangzhou City suddenly erupted at the same time, violent fluctuations broke out in a battle between the top martial arts experts and the Xiantian Grandmaster level!
