Chapter 410 People are panicking
"Tingyutang?" Bai Meng raised her head slightly, and then her eyes fell on a delicate red peach blossom, stained with the blood of the accountant's accountant.
At this time, Song Jian was standing behind the crowd, observing the situation in the field. Bai Qiang was a third-level combat master. Beside him were two angry young men. These two men had a good look. Judging from their appearance and clothes, they must be Bai Meng's two brothers. These two young men are already fourth-level combat masters and the only two fourth-level combat masters in the entire palace.
The fourth-level warrior is already an invincible existence in the entire Qingyun County city. This is why Bai Meng felt relieved after seeing her two brothers. But she did not expect that her two brothers were still killed at home.
Song Jian's eyes also fell on the copper leaf peach blossoms. The peach blossoms were placed on the accountant's face, with two rows of boys written on it, "Listen to the wind, peach blossoms are red, and the rain falls silently."
It can be seen that this thing looks more like a sign.
At this time, an old housekeeper walked out, bent down and helped Bai Meng up.
Bai Meng glanced at the old housekeeper and said, "Grandpa Li, what is Tingyutang?"
The old butler sighed and said, "Tingyutang is one of the seven main cities, a killer organization in Qingcheng. Tingyutang takes action, no one from the same sect will be left behind, and they will kill one by one. If... if... if you escape, you will only die faster and die more miserably."
Bai Meng's eyes widened, "But... But how could our royal palace make enemies with Tingyu Hall?"
The old housekeeper shook his head.
At this time, Bai Qiang, who was standing beside him, snorted. Then he turned to his two sons and said, "Bai Zhan, Bai Fei, what do you think?"
Bai Zhan shook his head and said, "Dad, I really can't understand why Tingyutang attacked our mansion. They have always rarely participated in the affairs of our small city and county for the seven main city sects. Moreover, our county prince's mansion has always only been active around Qingyun County. We will not provoke them at all. I always feel that someone is intimidating our mansion under the name of Tingyutang."
"But brother," Bai Fei frowned, "Brother. Last night, hundreds of soldiers in our entire palace took turns to patrol the posts. No one could find the killer. This skill is far above you and me. If it weren't for Tingyutang, who would it be? Since he is such a master, why would he still use the reputation of Tingyutang to play with our palace and palms?"
Bai Zhan whispered with his hands behind his back: "Unless, the murderer is our own person in the royal palace."
At this moment, a sudden burst of footsteps came from outside, and then a soldier in armor ran in and said, "Report to the prince, I found a footprint on the lion statue outside the mansion."
"Footprints? Since they are footprints, why are they so panicked?" Bai Qiang asked with his eyebrows raised.
"When the prince said, those footprints are seven or eight centimeters deep," the soldier whispered.
"What? Let me go and see," Bai Qiang waved his robe and walked outside. Everyone followed him one after another, leaving only a few soldiers to clean up the body of the old housekeeper.
Bai Meng stood blankly in the room and did not go out with her.
"Miss," Song Jian walked over and patted Bai Meng on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, maybe you can catch the murderer today."
Bai Meng shook her head, "Xiao Jian, you'd better leave quickly. You are not from our palace, so it should be okay to leave. The lion outside the palace is made of fine copper, and the person who can leave footprints on the lion must be very powerful."
Song Jian ignored it. He squatted down and looked around the corpse of the accountant. Although he was just a custodian, the old man was already a first-level combatant. However, the old man seemed to have no sign of resistance.
Song Jian was just confused for a moment, and Xiaoqing pulled Bai Meng and left with him. This guy was ashamed of the dead. Looking at the corpse on the ground, his heart trembled.
Back in Bai Meng's small yard, Chunfeng and Chunyu both looked happy, while Bai Meng looked sad. Xiaoqing took the errands and ran to the hall one by one to find out the latest news for Bai Meng.
Song Jian sat in his room, slowly studying rune knowledge.
"Miss, Miss, the master has decided to ask for help from foreign aid," Xiaoqing ran into the yard panting and said to Bai Meng.
Bai Meng nodded. What she admired the most was her two brothers, but she didn't expect that someone in the mansion would be secretly killed, which made Bai Meng really scared.
"Who are you asking for help?" Bai Meng asked listlessly.
Xiao Qing said with a sharp voice: "It seems that the master saw the footprint and felt that it must be the work of the master. It happened that the elders of the Qingshan Sect and Hengshui Sect were all back today, so the master asked them to go to the two sects for help. In addition, the eldest young master has decided to set out to Qingcheng, and the eldest young master is on duty at the Qingcheng City Lord's Mansion, so he plans to go to the Qingcheng City Lord for help, and tell the people in Tingyu Hall that they will have a good relationship with our County Prince's Mansion."
Bai Meng sighed and said, "Qingcheng is thousands of miles away from our Qingyun County, so we will definitely not be able to come back for a while. Although it is like the Qingshan Sect and the Hengshui Sect asking for help, they are afraid that they will not dare to take action when facing Tingyutang. Of course, even if they take action, what's the use? My two brothers can do nothing, and they are no better than my brother."
"Hey, Miss, think about it on the better side, Qingshan Sect and Hengshui Sect, after all, there are many experts. Tingyutang's killer, to put it bluntly, is just one person. Facing so many people alone, he will definitely not let that killer succeed again," Xiaoqing comforted Bai Meng.
"I hope," Bai Meng sat listlessly at the table.
Soon, at noon, the food was brought up, and Bai Meng could not swallow it when he faced the rice bowl. Xiaoqing was worried about Bai Meng, so he naturally ate very little. Chunfeng and Chunyu saw that Bai Meng would not eat, so they got together a little. Song Jian saw that the leftover food was a pity and said, "Don't you eat it? I'll eat it all if you don't eat it."
As he said that, Song Jian opened his mouth wide and in a few minutes, he really wiped out all the food.
A table of people opened their mouths and looked at Song Jian.
Chunfeng and Chunyu didn’t know the background of Song Jian, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Sister Xiaojian, you are such a real tomboy.”
Song Jian smiled.
Bai Meng's face turned black and muttered in a low voice: "I'm really heartless, hum! At this time, I can still eat."
Song Jian didn't care. After dinner, he wiped his mouth and went to the next room to continue reading.
In the afternoon, Bai Meng was still waiting anxiously. To put it bluntly, she was just an ordinary girl, and she could only worry about this kind of thing.
Xiaoqing continued to act as a spy and went to the main hall from time to time to inquire about the news.
"Miss. Miss, the people from Hengshui Sect came, but six of them came. Among them, three strange-shaped guys."
...
"Miss, Miss, the Qingshan Sect has also sent people. This time, the Qingshan Sect is really righteous. It was the head of the sect and the Supreme Elder who came in person, and brought two hundred disciples!"
...
"Miss, Miss, it's not good. The master is discussing your marriage with the Qingshan Sect's people. These bastards from the Qingshan Sect are so hateful. They took advantage of this time and even mentioned the marriage between you and the bastard Zhao Tian, the head son, again."
...
Xiaoqing kept inquiring. Bai Meng was still feeling a little relieved. When he heard the last news, Bai Meng stood up and said, "Dad is getting more and more confused!"
"Hahahaha, Sister Bai Meng is really speaking without restraint. How could Uncle Bai be confused?" A young man shaking a folding fan came to the gate of the other courtyard. The man was about thirty years old. The cultivation of a first-level warrior can be seen as a waste. After all, in a major sect like Qingshan Sect, he is the son of the head of the sect. He is only a first-level warrior at the age of thirty, and he is indeed a bit too backward.
Bai Meng saw the young man and his face changed and said, "Zhao Tian, this is my yard, and the man cannot come in."
"Hahahaha, Sister Bai Meng, why are you doing this?" Zhao Tian walked in with a folding fan, "From now, we will be a family. What about your yard and my yard, aren't it the same? Besides, isn't this a man?"
As he said that, Zhao Tian pointed at Xiaoqing.
Xiaoqing stretched out her orchid finger and pointed at Zhao Tian, "Hurry up, get out quickly, otherwise, or I will tell the master."
"Oh, your family now has a request for our Qingshan Sect. Now the two families are discussing the wedding date of my sister Bai Meng and I. Also, if you dare to scold me, you are really looking for death." As he said that, Zhao Tian kicked his foot and rushed to Xiaoqing. Xiaoqing was just an ordinary person who had practiced flirting for a few days. How could he avoid Zhao Tian's attack?
With a "bang", Xiaoqing was kicked away by Zhao Tian, rolled on the ground a few times, and could not get up on the ground.
"This is the consequence of being disrespectful to the master," Zhao Tian snorted, and then said, "Why, Sister Xiao Meng wouldn't invite me to the living room for a glass of water?"
Bai Meng's face turned red, but she had no choice. In terms of status, her county prince's mansion was even worse than the Qingshan Sect. Although the county prince's mansion was affiliated with the royal institution of the Mosaichi Kingdom, the most powerful in the Mosaichi Kingdom was never the royal family, but the major sects. In terms of martial arts, there was no way to do anything about martial arts in the entire courtyard, while Zhao Tian was a first-level warrior. At this time, Bai Meng really had no choice but to use this young master.
When Song Jian heard this, he walked out of the room. He looked at Xiaoqing's injuries on the ground, but only some skin injuries, and felt a little relieved. Then he went into the kitchen, looked for hot water, poured it into the kettle, and walked towards the living room with the kettle.
Seeing Song Jian coming over with a kettle, Zhao Tian laughed and said, "Sister Bai Meng, look, there are still good maids in your yard, and you know you want to entertain guests with tea. However, this maid is so tall."
Song Jian smiled at Zhao Tian, then staggered, and with a "ouch" sound, the teapot in his hand flew towards Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian stood up and picked up the kettle. For one of his first-level warriors, picking up a kettle was too easy.
