Jiang Li knelt beside a brazier under the hall, adding some paper money into it from time to time.
At this time, the sky has darkened, Huang Feihong has gone home, Ye Wen has also gone back beforehand and will come over in the evening, and Jiang Li follows the rules and observes his filial piety.
Chinese people attach great importance to filial piety. There is a saying of observing filial piety for three years. Especially those who are officials. If their parents die, they must observe filial piety if they are not officials to show their moral character.
However, this tradition has been slowly abandoned with the erosion of Western culture, and Jiang Li's parents have been laid to rest long ago, so there is no need to stay for so long. Three days is enough. After all, this is just a look at a person.
manner.
Of course, keeping filial piety does not mean that you have to kneel in the mourning hall all the time, but mainly during the day. At night, as long as you don't let the fire in the brazier go out.
"I wonder what Jiang Shimin and the others will do?" Jiang Li kept adding paper money to the brazier with his hands, but his eyes were full of thoughts.
Today, Jiang Shimin and others were released. On the one hand, there were too many people at the time and it was difficult for him to leave a good impression on others. On the other hand, he also wanted to see if what Jiang Shimin said was true or false.
If Jiang Shimin's words are true, then there is a high chance that he will inform after being kicked out by Jiang Li. According to the Yankee's virtue and the current situation, it is absolutely impossible for him to endure it.
Either today or tomorrow, someone will come and kill.
Looking at it this way, there will be results today and tomorrow.
Of course, it is not absolute whether someone came to assassinate him, but now Jiang Li has no other clues, so he can only go on step by step.
"I hope it's you, so you don't waste my time anymore." Touching the thing in his sleeve, Jiang Li squinted his eyes and thought to himself.
"call…"
The sky has completely darkened, and the mourning hall is still as bright as ever because of the candles burning. However, the surroundings are silent, with only the sound of the flames burning in the brazier, combined with the sound of the wind, adding a bit of eerieness to the surrounding atmosphere.
"Tap..." After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and the figure of the old housekeeper Gu Lin walked in from outside. Behind him, there were two young men wearing long coats with submissive expressions.
"Master, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. Just let the rocks and water pillars guard you tonight." The gray-haired Gu Lin's body was already a little stooped, but his eyes were still bright.
Jiang Li glanced outside and nodded.
"Okay, when Ah Wen comes over later, you can just have someone lead him directly to the room next to my room."
"yes."
Jiang Li stood up from the ground and walked over from the side of the front hall.
"You two, stay here today, remember not to let the fire in the brazier go out, and go to the accounting room tomorrow to receive the reward." When Jiang Li disappeared, Gu Lin said to the two young men behind him.
"Yes." When Shitou and Shuizhu heard that there was a reward, they were happy and agreed quickly.
"Hmm...cough." Gu Lin nodded calmly, couldn't help coughing twice, his face turned red, and he slowly walked out.
…
At the same time, a vigorous figure appeared on the roof of a two-story building in Jiang Mansion. Looking at the huge house, a thick disdain flashed across his slender face, and his blue-glowing eyes were
Raging with violence and murderous intentions.
Tiger's figure was close to the tiles on the roof, his sharp eyes scanning below. After a moment, a smile appeared on his face.
In the corridor facing this two-story building, I saw a tall figure yawning and walking slowly towards this side. It was Jiang Li.
"Yellow-skinned pig, die." Tiger took out a black pistol from his waist.
The Colt revolver, the famous six-shot pistol in the United States, is powerful and has a range of 100 to 200 meters. It is the favorite of the American western cowboys.
Before Tiger came to the East, he was a famous cowboy in the United States. Not only was he proficient in fighting, he was also very good at marksmanship, so he was favored by Ji Shan and brought to the East.
So far, the number of innocent souls who have died under his pistol is not even a hundred, but perhaps fifty.
Today, I will add another one.
Tiger raised his pistol and faced Jiang Li, who was slowly walking down below, with a cruel and cruel smile. It seemed as if Jiang Li's skull was flying and his blood was exploding in front of his eyes.
The long-lost blood made Tiger's blood boil.
To die at the hands of the famous cowboy Tiger is enough to make him proud even if he meets Satan.
"Come closer, yellow-skinned pig." Tiger looked at Jiang Li's figure, his blue eyes full of expectation.
"Huh?" Jiang Li, who was advancing in the corridor, suddenly felt the power of thought in his mind shaking violently. In the dark, it seemed as if a huge crisis had turned into a big net, trying to surround him.
There was a vibration between his eyebrows, and a weak tingling sensation spread to his heart. Every time he took a step forward, the pain would get worse.
"Are you here..." Jiang Li's footsteps continued, a cold light silently appeared between the two fingers of his right hand, and the thought in his mind suddenly turned into his other eye, scanning around.
Psychological warning and exploration, this is the second of the three methods Jiang Li knows so far to use telekinesis.
Telekinesis warning means that when encountering danger, telekinesis will vibrate crazily to give Jiang Li a reminder.
Exploration is a bit like the spiritual sense in Xianxia novels, which can check things around you. But it is also a little different. Jiang Li's telepathy is like his third eye, which can only see in one direction, not like a scanner.
That way.
In fact, to put it bluntly, telepathy is still the power of a person's soul. Of course, soul power is not only the ability of telepathy, but also the power of the mind, just like Professor X, who can control other people's minds and detect other people's memories.
We can't say which one is stronger and which one is weaker. After all, they are all extensions of soul power. We can only say that they have different uses. One acts on matter and the other acts on the soul.
Getting back to the topic, Jiang Li used his telepathy to explore the enemy's position, but his steps did not stop. He was still walking forward, and the stinging pain in his eyebrows became stronger and stronger.
One step...two steps...
Apart from the light from the lanterns, the only sound in the corridor was Jiang Li's footsteps, which seemed particularly silent.
Suddenly, at a certain moment, Jiang Li's eyes lit up as he advanced, his body suddenly stopped, and he rolled over the railing in the corridor into the yard. A cold light invisible to the naked eye flew out of his hand and shuttled through the dark night sky.
.
"Bang..." At the same time, a sound like a firecracker exploding sounded in the huge Jiang Mansion, and a shining silver bullet landed where Jiang Li was just now, blasting a hole out of the cement-paved ground.
Big pit.
"Ah..." After the gunshot, there was a shrill howl.
"No, Master." Gu Lin, who had just walked out of the front hall, was shaken, and his plain face was instantly filled with worry. He didn't care about his own body and ran towards the backyard.
"No, it's gunfire." Ye Wen, who was walking slowly outside the Jiang Mansion, looked anxious. He stepped on the three-meter-high wall of the Jiang Mansion twice, jumped on it, and then
Stepping on the wall, he quickly ran towards the place where the gunfire rang out.
At this time, the Jiang Mansion, which had been gradually calming down, was completely in chaos. The servants who had fallen asleep were awakened by the sound of gunshots, and the entire Jiang Mansion was illuminated with torches.
"Huh..." Jiang Li got up from the ground, regardless of the dirt on his body, and ran forward quickly.
"Master..." Gu Lin's anxious voice sounded behind him, and his old body ran towards this side quickly.
"Uncle Lin, quickly, let someone go up and see if there is anyone else." Jiang Li pointed to the small building in front of him and ordered Gu Lin.
Just now, he could clearly feel that the silver needle he sent out with his telekinesis hit a person, but he didn't know whether it hit the vital point.
"Bang bang bang..." Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps on the roof nearby, and a black figure floated down from the wall.
"A Li, are you okay?" Ye Wen, who fell into the yard, looked at Jiang Li and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, Ah Wen, go up and see if there is anyone else on the roof." Jiang Li's eyes lit up when he saw Ye Wen's elegant figure, and he hurriedly said to him.
"Okay..." Ye Wen shouted in a deep voice, with anger in his eyes. He immediately stepped on the railing in the yard, and jumped onto the roof of the two-story building as if his body had no gravity.
