Rebirth of the Genius Charlatan

Chapter 428: New clues (completed)

Views:

This year's Lantern Festival is undoubtedly deeply shocking to Hong Kong circles. The news of the death of Master Leng, once a well-known divination master in the Chinese community, shocked many people. At the beginning of last year, the old man was still entertaining guests from all over the world for his granddaughter and son-in-law’s engagement ceremony in Hong Kong. Why is there such a thing as yin and yang this year

Tang Zongbo's external explanation was that Mr. Leng was deeply affected by the death of his grandson-in-law. He fell ill while recuperating in the mainland and died of illness.

Some people had heard about Xiao Yi's death half a year ago. The Maoshan party claimed that it was a car accident. People in the Hong Kong circle were not familiar with Xiao Yishang, but they were quite sad about his death. Leng Yixin is equally sad. Her fiancé passed away only half a year ago, and her grandfather also passed away. Things are unpredictable, and even Feng Shui masters have misfortunes and blessings.

However, the Xuanmen disciples knew the details. Tang Zongbo and the Anqinhui people came back from Japan and brought back the bodies of Cui Hao and a strange woman, including the mask the woman was wearing. Tang Zongbo did not hide the truth about his trip to Japan from the former disciples of the Leng family, including the fact that he had brought Mr. Leng back to Hong Kong from the mainland, and he also publicly explained the reasons in the sect. Although the disciples of the Leng family did not want to see today's results, they were helpless.

The mourning hall is located in the Xuanmen Old Feng Shui Hall, and anyone can come to express their condolences. Tang Zongbo was sitting in the mourning hall and presiding over the funeral. The people kneeling in front of the mourning body were all former disciples of the Leng family. They wore sackcloth and mourning to greet the guests who came to express their condolences. The atmosphere became more and more depressing day by day, and the expressions on the faces of the disciples became more and more serious day by day. Sober.

They are waiting for someone.

Leng Yixin.

She is the only blood of the Leng family, and the old man has spent his whole life trying to keep her. When she killed Yu Wei, if the old man hadn't begged for mercy, she would have died long ago. Now it was to protect her, her grandfather's funeral, could she bear not to come and see her grandfather for the last time

Everyone was asking this question, including the guests who came to express their condolences, the disciples of the Leng family, and even Xia Shao who was in the capital.

The day when Mr. Leng set up a mourning hall in Xuanmen to express his condolences was the day before the Lantern Festival. Xia Shao spent the whole day staring at the airport to see if there were any suspicious people, but to no avail.

The next day, the Lantern Festival.

Xia Shao made an appointment with Zhang Ruman for lunch. Beijing University has not yet started school, and friends have not returned to school yet, but Zhang Ruman has been at school throughout the holiday. Today is a holiday, and the Beijing Military Academy also has a day off, but he still has to return to school before six o'clock in the evening, so Zhang Ruman only has time at noon.

Xia Shao was going to Xu's house for dinner in the evening, and Xu Tianyin's security duties could be accepted at night, so she only had time at noon. Wen Ye hadn't returned to the capital yet, so at noon that day, there were only two sisters, and they made an appointment to meet in a pirate-themed bar.

This time Xia Shao arrived early. When Zhang Ruman came to the bar, he saw Xia Shao sitting in the corner, looking at the door, as if in a daze. Xia Shao was monitoring the airport with her eyes open. When she saw Zhang Ruman coming in, her eyes fell on her face and she was stunned.

"What's wrong with your face?" Xia Shao asked with raised eyebrows.

Zhang Ruman put her hands in her trouser pockets and walked over heroically. Her previous ponytail had been cut off after attending military school, but she looked even sharper. It was just that she had two band-aids on her face and the corners of her eyes and mouth were a little black, which made her look a little bad when she came in.

"It's nothing. I fought with others and was beaten because of my lack of skill." Zhang Ruman shrugged and smiled, not taking it seriously.

"Excuse me?"

"Well. There is a new instructor in the school, and he is very skilled. I stood out among the newcomers, so I was named. This is the result." Zhang Ruman pointed to the record on his face, sat down with a smile, and watched I actually felt a little excited when I got up.

Xia Shao frowned lightly, "Do your instructors always attack so harshly?"

The corners of his mouth and eyes were swollen, and there was blood on his face. Although Xia Shao knew that Zhang Ruman's current goal was to become a soldier, it would be best if he could become an agent and perform tasks for the country, so this kind of competition with the strong was not suitable for him. It's a kind of learning for her. But from the school's perspective, for freshmen who are still in the early stages of various fighting skills, the teaching has always been so strict

"Have others been taught to be like you?" Xia Shao asked with some concern. It's not that she is overprotective. If the school treats all freshmen equally and is so strict with new students, then she won't say anything. Who made Zhang Ruman choose this path? However, she saw something unusual on Zhang Ruman's face. Even though she was injured like this, it could still be seen that her ears were gray, which was a sign of gradual disaster.

The so-called gradual means that the disaster is not just this one. It may happen one after another. It may be big or small. It is not yet certain. It may be a small thing, or it may escalate as the matter develops.

This appearance made her a little concerned...

"No." Zhang Ruman told the truth, "I told you that I was too prominent among the freshmen, so I was beaten particularly badly."

Xia Shao frowned suddenly. When Zhang Ruman saw her, she quickly waved her hand, her eyes bright and excited, "Sister, you must not go to our instructor. She came to inspect the new students temporarily. I finally caught her. Take the opportunity to compete with the people above me! After playing sandbags in school all day, I am almost going to be moldy. The other instructors can only throw us a few times, but they are never cruel, and we learn little. I can’t wait for actual combat! She When I came here yesterday, they said that we are just flowers raised in a greenhouse and will not be able to go to the battlefield even if we wear military uniforms in the future. I am not convinced, so... Of course, I am also responsible for being beaten like this, hehe."

As Zhang Ruman spoke, he shrank his neck and smiled flatteringly.

Xia Shao was immediately angry and neither laughed nor laughed, this girl!

"Don't tell me, our inspecting instructor's skills are really not lies. I heard that she came back from abroad, received an elite education, and will soon take up a position in the military region. Didn't you see, beautiful woman! Really. I didn’t believe in beautiful agents before, but this time I do,” Zhang Ruman continued.

Um? woman

Xia Shao was stunned for a moment, then his eyes fell on Zhang Ruman's face, and he opened his eyes. She has been really busy with everything lately. The entrance to the Beijing Military Academy is strictly controlled. Although they are both in the capital, Xia Shao cannot see Zhang Ruman all the time. There is still little information about her appearance, and her face was beaten like this. Some information is indeed covered up. Xia Shao Only then did the eyes of heaven open.

But after taking a look, Xia Shao couldn't help but frown. This woman... looks a bit familiar, as if I've seen her somewhere before, but I can't remember her for a while. But after the picture flashed in front of her eyes for a few seconds, Xia Shao's eyes suddenly turned cold and she snorted coldly.

She knew who this woman was, she had indeed seen her before. But at the end of the year before last, she went home for the New Year and met Qin Hanlin once in Qingshi. At that time, she saw that he had an official disaster and a female disaster. Although the official disaster ended with the lowest loss, in fact Qin Hanlin was still After receiving some punishment, I have accepted it. As for the female disaster, Xia Shao actually forgot about it for a while, and after the official disaster, Xia Shao remembered that there was indeed no sign of Qin Hanlin's appearance. Is it possible that it happens again now

There is a saying in metaphysics that some tribulations can be avoided, while others cannot. The disaster may be delayed due to some things, but it will eventually come. It is better to deal with unavoidable calamities to avoid greater calamities. I haven't seen Qin Hanlin for a while. Could it be that this disaster has happened again? Otherwise, how could this woman find Zhang Ruman

"I heard that our inspecting instructor has a good family background. I used to despise people with family backgrounds. None of those in our school have real abilities. However, this person makes me look at him with admiration. By the way, sister, you Have you heard that Japan will visit China soon? I heard that our instructor is from the security force." Zhang Ruman looked yearning, "I heard that those who can be selected as bodyguards for national leaders and foreign guests are all top-notch people. Agent. No wonder, her marksmanship is better than mine."

Xia Shao was stunned when he heard this and looked at Zhang Ruman with raised eyebrows, seeing her excited eyes.

"Sister, you know my marksmanship. I have practiced it since I was a child. Those guns are more familiar to me than chopsticks. I have never lost in marksmanship, even after I went to the Beijing Military Academy. But yesterday I lost a link. This feels really great! I really hope that masters like this come to the school often to monitor and supervise. It is very enjoyable to compete with masters. Yesterday, I played a few tricks with her. Although I lost, I learned a lot of practical skills. Otherwise, After dinner, let's find a place to practice our skills? The next time she comes, I will impress her!" Zhang Ruman's words made Xia Shao slightly startled, then she lowered her eyes and smiled.

This girl, the other party treats her as a love rival and teaches her a lesson, and she treats her as a punching bag for sparring. If the other party finds out about this, will he be so angry that he vomits blood

However, since Zhang Ruman came to the Beijing Military Academy, she has encountered a lot of things and has been feeling depressed. It is rare to see her so excited now. Although the other party's purpose was a bit disdainful, the result was somewhat unexpected, which ignited this girl's fighting spirit.

"Okay, let's go to the club after dinner." Xia Shao rarely gives advice, mainly because she learned internal martial arts and practiced it since she was a child, while Zhang Ruman practiced modern fighting skills, which are not in the same routine. Moreover, Zhang Ruman didn't know about her skills before. Although she heard some rumors when she was in Qingshi No. 1 Middle School, when she went back and asked her, she always smiled and said nothing.

Just because Xia Shao had refused to admit it in the past, she actually agreed now. Zhang Ruman's eyes widened in surprise, and then he devoured all the barbecue on the table, then pulled Xia Shao and went straight to the Huayuan private club.

There is a gym in the club, and the two of them started fighting in the open space of the gym.

But she didn't know the moves. After a few moves, Zhang Ruman beat her chest and stamped her feet, "Sister! You are so unreasonable. You are so good at it, but you didn't teach me before!"

"How did I know you would go to military school? If you didn't, wouldn't you just go out and fight if I taught you?" Xia Shao smiled leisurely.

"Then I'm admitted to the military academy now, you can teach me." Zhang Ruman said, shrinking his neck again, "The key is, do you have time?"

Xia Shao really didn't have time. Not to mention that it was a troubled time recently. Even if there was nothing wrong, Huaxia Group wanted to develop and the company's affairs were enough to keep her busy. The most important thing is, "I learned internal martial arts. It's okay to point out the loopholes and shortcomings of your moves, but if you want to learn fighting, you should still learn from a professional master. So, you If you really want to make progress faster, I will help you arrange someone."

Xia Shao didn't know any experts in this field, except for the protectors from the Anqin Society Triad. Of course these people don't have time, but Xu Tianyin used to perform missions abroad and may have acquaintances. Xia Shao can go back and ask Xu Tianyin.

Xu Tianyin returned to the villa in the evening. When Xia Shao returned from sending Zhang Ruman back to the military academy, he was already waiting for her at home.

They hadn't seen each other for two days and missed each other very much. The two lingered at home for a while before returning to Xu's house.

During dinner in the evening, the Japanese visit to China became the focus of the dinner.

"Although Tianyin is responsible for the security of this visit, the Fang family has also arranged for people to come in. Fang Yun received the security mission just after returning home. It seems that the Fang family wants to send a signal to the outside world, haha." At the Lantern Festival family banquet, Liu Zhenghong and Xu Tianzhe, who were working in the local area, both returned home. During the dinner, the old man asked Xu Tianyin how the security arrangements were, and Xu Yanshao smiled.

"The Fang family was originally the candidate cultivated by the Jiang family to succeed the Wang family. It is normal for the other party's family to be entrusted with important responsibilities. As soon as Fang Yun returned home, he received the task of guarding foreign guests. It seems that the Fang family really wants to compete." Liu Zhenghong said .

Xu Yanying frowned when he heard this and looked at Xu Tianyin, "It's nothing, it's just human nature. The Fang family has been on the second line for so many years, and it's not difficult to understand that they want to succeed the Wang family as the first line. If they want to fight, fight for it. I'm just Worry about Tianyin. The Fang family is a member of the Jiang family. People outside now regard us as the Qin family, right? In the future, with the power of the Fang family in the military and the old members of the Wang family, don’t give Tianyin any obstacles. Enough."

Xu Yanshao was not worried about this. He glanced at Xia Shao and said with a smile: "They don't dare. After all, the old man is still here. Besides, no matter what the outside world thinks, our Xu family has never actually participated in factional fights. They are not that stupid to mess with us."

If the Xu family is really annoyed, Jiang Xi will be like adding a powerful enemy to himself. With Jiang Xi's style, he won't be so stupid. And, most importantly, if they really dared to make Xia Shao angry, that would be the most fatal thing.

After hearing Xu Yanshao's words, Xia Shao raised her eyebrows slightly and felt a thump in her heart.

It is indeed unlikely that the Jiang family will take the initiative to provoke the Xu family, but... someone hopes to deal with Xu Tianyin.

If Xiao Yi was in the capital, would he find someone from the Jiang family? He has fought against her before, so he should know that he is no match for her. If he is hiding in the capital and wants to deal with her, he may adopt some roundabout methods. It is possible to find help...

If there is Xiao Yi behind the Jiang family, they may not dare to touch Xu Tianyin.

Of course, these are just Xia Shao's guesses. Cui Hao and the other two once said that Xiao Yi has a Thai head-dropping master beside him. Maybe they have other plans, but it is possible that they can find the Jiang family. This should be guarded against.

Xia Shao had just returned to the capital for two days, and she had been staring at the airport these two days, trying to see if she could find Leng Yixin. But if Leng Yixin doesn't show up, this is a clue.

The Xu family rarely discussed political affairs during family dinners in the past, but now they don't shy away from talking about Xia Shao. Although she has just been engaged, she can be considered a member of the Xu family. In the past, the old man didn't like his children discussing political affairs at the dinner table, but he didn't stop him tonight, obviously intending to let Xia Shao listen to these political affairs. However, Xia Shao listened with a smile from beginning to end and never expressed an opinion.

After the meal was finished, the old man left the two of them to talk for a while, then let them go back.

After returning to the villa, Xia Shaocai asked: "Senior brother, have you seen Qin Hanlin recently?"

Xu Tianyin was putting the bath water in the bathroom. He paused when he heard this. He didn't know how to answer a very simple question, "Hmm."

What does she know

In the past two days, he had not been able to activate the dragon energy while adjusting his breath. Most of the dozen century-old wild ginseng trees had been damaged by him, and most of the injuries had healed. However, he has been busy with tasks these two days. Has she seen Qin Hanlin

"I suspect that Qin Hanlin has a sign of trouble." Xia Shao walked to the bathroom door and stuck her head in.

Xu Tianyin squatted on the ground and poured water with his back to Xia Shao, "Have you seen him?"

"No, I met Ru Man at noon and found some signs." Xia Shao stood at the door, "Has Qin Hanlin had a girlfriend before?"

"Yes." Xu Tianyin stood up and turned around, his expression as usual.

"who?"

"Fang family, Fang Yun."

"Huh?" Xia Shao raised an eyebrow, "Fang Yun?"

She had heard this name tonight. Although it sounded like a woman's name, and she had also heard from the Xu family that she had been involved in guarding foreign guests as soon as she returned to China. This was consistent with Zhang Ruman's statement, but Xia Shao really hadn't thought about it. . After all, the Fang family belongs to the Jiang family, and Qin Hanlin is the third-generation son of the Qin family. How could he have a relationship with a military daughter of the Jiang family

"It's a coincidence." Xia Shao smiled meaningfully. She was worried about how to contact people from the Jiang family without being suspected. After all, she didn't want to alert the snake. This time, someone actually found a good reason for her, haha.

"Senior brother, when is the Japanese visit?"

"A week later."

"Will the security work still be carried out these days?" Xia Shao asked again.

Seeing her look like this, he knew that she was making some small calculations again. Xu Tianyin's eyes softened and he reached out to touch her hair, "The arrangements are in place. We will have to practice in the next few days. We can't do anything where there are any safety blind spots." Let it go.”

"Then if it's convenient tomorrow, take me with you. If I don't go in, I won't disturb your mission. I'll just wait for you outside. Wait for Fang Yun by the way, I want to talk to her."

"Okay." He never refused her request.

Xia Shao smiled, and then told Xu Tianyin that he wanted to hire a fighting teacher for Zhang Ruman. Xu Tianyin indeed knew people in this field, and they were all former special forces or mercenaries. They had high practical combat experience and could give Zhang Ruman many skills in school. There are things that cannot be learned. Xia Shao thought it was feasible, so she nodded in agreement and left the matter to Xu Tianyin.

The two took a shower and went to bed early in the evening. Before going to bed, Xia Shao called her master. As expected, Leng Yixin was not found in Hong Kong. In this regard, Xia Shao asked the people in Hong Kong to continue to pay attention, while he planned to start from another place and meet the military daughter of the Fang family tomorrow.

Complete. It's the last day of the month, girls, if you have votes, don't forget to vote, otherwise it will be wasted.

Thank you girls for your concern, don't worry, it's nothing serious, just sad. I went to the hospital and was given four injections. There was nothing I could do. It was difficult to find the blood vessel. Two doctors took turns to give me three injections, but they couldn't get it right. Finally, I was asked to go to the infusion room to find a nurse. Ten thousand grass and mud horses were running through my heart. I had already known that the blood vessel was difficult to find, and I had known that it might not be inserted correctly. Why didn't you ask me to find a nurse in the first place
