"I really don't know what that person is thinking. Why do you want to keep him alive when you say he slaughtered everyone in his family?"
And there must be something going on behind the scenes of a person who is able to kill a whole family, but he doesn’t even know how many people he is.”
Fan Nuanyang guessed: "Maybe there is some conspiracy."
Ming Xiaobai said disdainfully: "What are you plotting? He is just an insignificant mortal. Is there anything that can be plotted by others? His skin?"
Fan Nuanyang said with a straight face: "Brother, be careful what you say!"
Ming Xiaobai had no idea, he glanced at Bai Qingyan next to him and closed his mouth unwillingly.
Bai Qingyan spoke at the right time and said: "We know less information now, so why not take a short break and then go to Tianji Pavilion to inquire. Then we will know the whole story."
"That's all we can do now. Everyone is probably tired from the past two days. This is the peace of mind pill I refined. Although the grade is not high, it has just the right effect on the current situation. Everyone takes one and goes back to the room.
Go and rest."
The other disciples thanked each other tacitly: "Thank you, senior sister, for your kindness."
Then he took the elixir and left the room. Of course, Lan Yuan, who fainted, was not forgotten and was carried away by two disciples.
On the second day, a group of people arrived in front of Tianji Pavilion under the faint sunshine.
The hexagonal palace bell hanging under the eaves of the Tianji Pavilion shone softly under the faint morning light, making the hexagonal palace bell look like a beautiful treasure.
Tianji Pavilion is located in the bustling city, but its solemn atmosphere completely separates it from the bustling city, but it is not at all out of place.
The moment Ming Xiaobai and his group stepped into Tianji Pavilion, people in plain clothes immediately came forward to salute.
"Stop talking nonsense, we want to know what happened to the Lan family in Red Maple City years ago."
"My lord, please come this way." Soon the group was led into a small room.
Behind the beaded curtain not far away sat a man whose figure and appearance could not be clearly seen.
Bai Qingyan threw a money bag over. The man did not move, but asked in a low and hoarse voice: "I wonder what news you adults want to know?"
"The Lan Family in Red Maple City."
"The Lan family in Red Maple City was a family that suddenly rose to prominence more than fifty years ago. Before getting rich, he worked as a salesman, selling things on the streets. Although his life was not bad, it was not much better.
But more than fifty years ago, the Lan family seemed to have become prosperous overnight. Not only did they move into a large house in the city, they even prospered in business later on. As long as they cooperated with them, no one was not making a lot of money.
For a time, it attracted many merchants in the city and held a chamber of commerce together.
At this point, the Lan family began to control most of the shops in Red Maple City together with other families.
During this period, he cheated and cheated, oppressed the people, and relied on the Chamber of Commerce to make them suffer.
One night more than thirty years ago, all the people in the Lan Mansion lost their lives, and nearly a hundred people died overnight."
"Who did it?"
"Someone noticed a young man leaving Lan Mansion in a hurry that night."
"Do you know who it is?"
"The servant who was kicked out is called Xiao Man."
Lan Yuan clenched his fists with both hands and bit his back teeth fiercely. His eyes were full of hatred, but he was a little confused when he thought that the culprit was dead.
Fan Nuanyang asked: "How many young masters are there in the Lan family?"
"Serious or not?"
"What's the meaning?"
"The Lan family and his wife at that time had children outside. Are their children considered the masters of the Lan family?"
Lan Yuan raised his head in astonishment and looked at the person behind the curtain in disbelief. What did he mean?
The parents who love each other so much in front of him are actually actors?
"No, we want to know how many young masters were in the Lan Mansion before the whole family was wiped out?"
"Both of you."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How can there be only two young masters!" Lan Yuan excitedly stepped forward and shouted.
"The Lan family has a young master named Lan Yuan."
"none."
"No way, you are talking nonsense, you liar, who said there is no Lan Yuan in the Lan family, I tell you, the Lan family has three sons, I am the third, I am Lan Yuan, I am Lan Yuan!"
Lan Yuan was held down by the two disciples and was unable to rush forward. He could only struggle desperately, but in vain.
"Guest, don't be excited. What the Lan family announced at the time was that there were only two young masters and two young ladies in the house. There was no third master at all. If we really wanted to count, there would be more than just the third master. There must be six and seven masters.
Already."
"Obviously I am the third young master of the Lan family, why do you say I don't exist!"
"Guest, don't get excited. Maybe we don't have all the records here. Please calm down first."
Bai Qingyan disliked him for being noisy and directly asked people to look at him.
"Is there any problem with the Lan family's family history?"
The man opposite stretched out two fingers to make a gesture, and a disciple immediately asked dissatisfied: "You are really greedy. I have given you so much before, but you are still not satisfied."
The man on the other side was not annoyed and said in a good-tempered way: "With different problems, the prices will naturally be different."
This time, Bai Qingyan took off the bag from his waist and threw it away.
Ming Xiaobai: "Huh, your answer must be worthy of the price you paid!"
"The customer misunderstood. Our Tianji Pavilion's news prices have always been clearly marked.
The Lan family's fortune is really weird. It seems that they became rich overnight. Not only did they move out of their hometown and move into a new house, but they also became very wealthy overnight.
It is said that it is because they have received a treasure. As long as they cherish this treasure, all glory and wealth will be at their fingertips."
"What baby?"
"Not sure."
Ming Xiaobai said with some displeasure: "Hasn't your Tianji Pavilion always been able to know the world's affairs?
Why can’t you even answer a simple question now?”
"Guest, we just sell information, and we can't read minds. If no one reveals it, we won't know."
"What do you know about the servant named Xiao Man?"
"This servant named Xiao Man is a poor guy picked up by the Lan family's followers. He has had leg problems since he was a child, and he looked weird when he was born. He is regarded as a disaster by his relatives. His father has not loved his mother since he was a child, and he has been there every day.
He did the most tiring work and had the least amount of food. He was often beaten and scolded when someone in the family was unhappy. One year, there was a famine in his hometown, so he escaped halfway, and finally followed the refugees to Red Maple City.
Then he was picked up and taken back to Lan Mansion."
"Is there any well-guarded place in the Lan family?"
"have."
"where?"
"There is an attic in the northwest of their house. There are servants patrolling the attic every day, so no one can easily get close to it."
"What's in the attic?"
“I only know that someone lives here, but I don’t know who it is.”
Fan Nuanyang was murmuring in his heart, isn't Tianji Pavilion as powerful as he imagined? There are a lot of things he doesn't know, but it's right to think about it. If he knew everything, other forces wouldn't be able to tolerate it.
