Chapter 39 Mysterious Watch Lady
Chapter 39 Mysterious Watch Lady
The cousin that handsome brother mentioned is the daughter of the city lord's wife, Mrs. Lu's younger sister.
Mrs. Lu's younger sister met with an accident when she was exploring a secret place with her husband in her early years, leaving behind only a young daughter.
This daughter is weak and has average talent, so the Lu family doesn't like her very much.
When Madam Lu found out, she sent someone to take her to the City Lord's Mansion to educate her personally.
This cousin is like an invisible person in the City Lord's Mansion and is very low-key on weekdays.
She has lived in the City Lord's Mansion for several years, but no one has ever seen her appearance.
On weekdays, she is not seen attending banquets with the Lei family. She is so low-key that people in Leidi City almost forget the existence of such a person.
"Why do you think this matter is related to Lu Yunyi?" Zhang Ruonan asked curiously.
"Because of my father, I lived in the City Lord's Mansion for a period of time."
The handsome man looked mysterious.
His father?
Jiang Li had long suspected that the father of this handsome brother was probably not an ordinary cultivator.
If they didn't have a certain background of strength, those two people wouldn't have pestered him all the way, just to prevent him from talking nonsense in front of his father.
Jiang Li really couldn't understand why he wanted to provoke the person behind the other party when he knew he couldn't afford to.
Isn't this simply seeking death?
However, Jiang Li was quite surprised to find out that the handsome brother's father was actually related to the City Lord's Mansion.
Seeing that they were curious, the handsome guy didn't keep them in suspense.
“Although my father is a casual cultivator, he is also well-known among casual cultivators.
A year ago, City Lord Lei Kuang personally invited my father to the City Lord’s Mansion to discuss the matter of the Thunder Emperor’s treasure.
My father took me to the appointment, and we lived in the City Lord's Mansion for several months.
Although later due to some accidents, I had to leave with my father.
But during the time I lived in the City Lord's Mansion, I did discover some things.
I didn’t notice these things at the time, but now when I think back on them, I feel that they are extraordinary.
It may even be related to several recent heart-digging cases in the city."
"What did you find out?" Zhang Ruonan urged. She hated people who spoke unclearly the most.
"I was just about to say this, can you please be a little patient?" The handsome man said helplessly.
"During those months, I accidentally walked into a courtyard one day and found that the courtyard was very strange..."
The handsome man was lost in his memories. At that time, he was bored and wandered around the City Lord's Mansion, and accidentally walked near that courtyard.
Originally, he didn't care about any courtyard.
Until he was driven away and forbidden to come near.
He became curious at that time and inevitably paid more attention to the courtyard.
But I found that the place looked ordinary, but the security was loose on the outside but tight on the inside.
After asking around, I found out that the person living there was Lu Yunyi, the cousin of the City Lord's Mansion.
Does a helpless cousin who lives in the city lord's mansion need such strict protection?
He muttered to himself, his curiosity aroused.
I originally wanted to inquire about the cousin in the City Lord's Mansion, but the people in the City Lord's Mansion were very tight-lipped. Apart from telling me the other party's identity, they didn't say anything else.
Just when he was about to investigate further, the eldest son of the City Lord's Mansion suddenly came to him and started taking him out to play every day.
Li Meinan didn't realize what was going on at first, but later she guessed the other party's plan.
I guess the other party wanted to divert his attention and stop him from staring at that cousin...
"Hearing what you said, that cousin is really mysterious." Jiang Li frowned.
"You go on."
“Once, I was hungry in the middle of the night and went to the big kitchen in the City Lord’s Mansion.
I found someone cooking soup in the kitchen late at night." He paused deliberately.
Zhang Ruonan wondered, "Is making a fuss about making soup?"
"This is not an ordinary soup." Jiang Li said lightly.
The handsome brother said with admiration, "Sister, you are really smart." Jiang Li: Big brother, you don't have to praise me.
“That soup is indeed extraordinary.
That is - Wuxin Soup."
"What is Wuxin Soup?" Meng Jue asked.
“Five-heart soup is a soup made by boiling five hearts of the same nature with several kinds of spiritual medicine.
Wuxin Decoction has only one function, which is to treat heart disease."
"The man who made the soup mysteriously brought it to the cousin's yard after it was done.
That soup was probably prepared for that cousin."
"So you suspected Lu Yunyi because of this bowl of five-heart soup, right?" Jiang Li asked.
"Sister, you probably don't know about Wuxin Soup." He said this with certainty.
Jiang Li nodded.
“In order to achieve the best medicinal effect of the Five Heart Soup, it is best to add a monk’s heart.
Male cultivators use men's hearts, and female cultivators use women's hearts.
Now, several of those killed were female cultivators, and their spiritual root attributes were all the same.
How can I not doubt her?"
The handsome man's words made the three people present fall into deep thought.
"If it's really like what you said, can we still intervene in this matter?
I'm afraid that everyone in the City Lord's Mansion knows what that cousin did.
The City Lord's Mansion has made its attitude clear by not arresting that cousin.
If we continue investigating, we might be silenced by them." Zhang Ruonan looked at Jiang Li, and it was obvious that he hoped she would give up.
Jiang Li smiled bitterly in her heart, is it because she doesn’t want to give up?
This damn task, are you sure this is a mid-level task, not an advanced one?
She no longer wanted to complain and seriously suspected that this broken system wanted to take the opportunity to kill her so as to find a new host.
“I can’t just let it go like this, even if the murderer is related to someone from the City Lord’s Mansion, I’m not afraid.
I just want justice for the dead. It is unjust to use the heart of a monk as medicine."
Brother Meinan felt a little ashamed when he saw Jiang Li, whose face was serious and whose whole body had the word fearless written all over it.
I didn't expect that a female cultivator could have such a strong sense of justice. He is not as good as her.
"Jiang Li, you are crazy!" Not only is he crazy, he must have hit his head!
Zhang Ruonan really couldn't understand. Even if she wanted to do good deeds and seek justice for the deceased, she shouldn't risk her life for it.
We are not related to each other, is there any need to take this risk?
At worst, we can secretly notify the families of the victims.
As for what they are going to do, it all depends on them.
Jiang Li is just a passerby, there is no need for her to get involved in this mess.
Jiang Li was filled with grief and indignation. What do you think I want?
Do I think I am so positive? I was forced to do so!
However, there was a gleam of light and a hint of appreciation in Meng Jue's eyes when he looked at Jiang Li.
"No need to say anything, I've made up my mind."
She turned her head away, looking as if she didn't need any persuasion.
A few people who didn't know the truth were really frightened by her.
"Sister, you are really a role model for our generation!" The handsome brother gave her a thumbs up, his eyes full of admiration.
Knowing that there is a tiger in the mountain, he still goes there just to seek justice for the deceased. Such a noble sentiment is bound to move and inspire admiration.
"Stop praising me. I have a question for you." Jiang Li raised her hand to signal him to shut up.
"What's the problem? Ask it, girl." The handsome man patted his chest generously.
"You know that this bounty is not easy to earn, why do you still want to form an alliance with me?"
