Long Sorrow Song - C111
The ugly time had just passed, and the small courtyard Ye Wen lived in was quiet. From beginning to end, no one had noticed his fight with the White Barrows Hawk, nor had anyone come out to stop him. The Lu family had a lot of guests. Did no one really hear it? After this battle, Ye Mo Han decided not to leave the Lu family. Since Lu Zi Bai clearly wanted to keep him here, then he might as well stay here. With Ye Zi Han’s understanding, Lu Zi Bai guessed that Ye Mo Han was going to leave and had also planned out Ye Zi Han’s escape route. Of course, he wouldn’t just send the white yak. The others were probably waiting for Ye Mo Han in secret.
Ye Mo Han laid back on his bed. Tonight’s fight was like a prelude to the beginning of a battle, and tomorrow, trouble would begin one after another.
The next morning, Ye Mo Han lived in a small courtyard with many people, noisy people do not want to quiet down. Ye Mo Han pushed open the door and saw Lu Zibai, Peng Bo, and Tang Xiaolin all there. In addition to the three of them, there were over a dozen martial artists dressed in all sorts of clothes. Clearly, they were all Lu Zibai’s guests. When the crowd saw Ye Zi Han come out, they immediately quivered and looked at Lu Zi Bai.
“The White Cang Eagle was killed last night.” Lu Zi Bai looked directly at Ye Wen, as if she wanted to find something on his face.
Ye Shuihan shot Tang Xiao Lin a glance. Could it be that Tang Xiao Lin was the one who killed the White Barbarian Hawk? Tang Xiao Lin still looked out of place. She looked proud and disdainful. From the way they acted today, it was obvious that Ye Mo Han was seen as the killer of the White Barrows. Lu Ziqing’s guests were here to denounce them for their crimes.
“How did he die? When was he killed? ” Ye Mo Han suspected Tang Xiao Lin more. He had enough reasons, but no one present would believe it. Here, Lu Zibai had the final say. Lu Zibai sent white vultures to monitor him, and the next day they found out that he had been killed, and Lu Zibai had every reason to order people to take him down and convict him. However, Lu Zibai had only come here to tell Ye Mo Han, showing that he only suspected Ye Mo Han. Could it be that Lu Zibai also discovered something suspicious, or that Lu Ziyi already knew who the murderer was and purposely came to Ye Mo Han to numb the real culprit?
Just as Ye Mo asked this, a few people next to him glared at him. The White Cang Eagle had been in the Lu family for many years and had the bearing of an elder among these guests. Amongst the many guests, the White Cang Eagle was one of the most respected. This time, the White Barrows Eagle was killed while monitoring Ye Mo Han’s movements, and everyone considered Ye Mo Han to be the culprit.
“Dawn was discovered at the entrance of Jinxing Garden. The time of its death should be between the Yin and the Yang hour.” Lu Zibai’s reply was very sincere, but his eyes were sharp as he stared at Ye Mo Han, he had always wanted to find out something from Ye Zi Han’s reaction.
The body of the White Cang Eagle was still at the Jinxing Garden. Lu Zibai was not allowed to be moved, as he was afraid of ruining some clues. The white Cang Ying laid on the ground quietly with its eyes wide open. Its face was green and purple, and its tongue was protruding from its mouth as if it was strangled to death. However, there were no traces of being strangled on the white Cang Ying’s body. Lu Zi Bai told everyone to stay far away, and walked with Ye Wen Han to the body of the white barn eagle, so that their conversation couldn’t be overheard by anyone else.
“A fatal blow is a punch.” Lu Zibai tore open the clothing on the chest of the white vulture, there was a black fist mark on the chest, other than the thumb, the other four finger marks could clearly be seen.
“The assassin’s inner force is very high. The inner force penetrated through his chest and into his body, causing his Qi and blood to be cut off and causing him to feel suffocated.” Ye Chanhan sucked in a breath of cold air. Many people in the martial arts world could use this technique to kill people, but not many people were willing to. The one hit by the fist would not immediately die, but would instead endure a great deal of pain and suffocate to death. This was not so much a method of killing as the torment of the strong towards the weak. To be able to kill a White Cang Eagle like this, his martial arts must be much higher than it.
“That’s precisely the reason why I don’t think you’re the killer. Even if you know martial arts, it’s impossible for you to kill him with a single punch.” Lu Zibai did not hide his suspicions at all. He then pointed to the crowd and said, “All the martial arts experts of the Lu family are here, but not a single one of them could kill the White Cang Eagle with a single punch.”
“Aren’t you afraid that my accomplices are the culprits?” Ye Jianhan now understood why Lu Zibai came alone with him to look at the carcass of the white vulture, because he also began to doubt his guests. Panic usually starts from the suspicion of the people around her, what made Lu Zibai so terrified?
“I should have already known that with their style of doing things, they wouldn’t have sent anyone to our Lu family at this time. It’s just that I was so nervous that I figured it out yesterday. ” “Sure enough, Lu Zimo met with some trouble. From what he’s saying, he seems to know who the other person is.” They were preparing to deal with the Lu family a long time ago. It should be a long time since they set people up to be near me. ”
If Lu Zibai had been planted with spies, and he only found out now, then Lu Zibai’s distrust and fear of the people around him was within reason.
“Are they referring to the Tang Clan?” Ye Wen cast a cold glance at Tang Xiaolin in the distance.
Lu Ziwei lowered her head and pretended to continue examining the corpse: “The Tang family has always coveted the Lu family’s property, but I don’t think much of them.”
“Then who are they?” As Ye Jianhan expected, the Tang family’s ambition Lu Zibai had been very clear, but also chose to ignore.
“Nangong family.”
When Lu Quisong died, the Nangong Family had already wanted to take the opportunity to swallow up the Lu Family’s Bank. Unexpectedly, Wu Dang and Shaolin interfered, and Lu Zibai was among them. She managed to preserve the Lu Family’s Bank, and in the short span of a few years, increased the influence of the Lu Family Bank by a lot.
The bigger the tree, the greater the disturbance.
In this chaotic world, territories were the target of contention, and gold and silver were no exception. Originally, the circulation of gold and silver as well as the issuance of currency had been built by the imperial government. However, it was too late for these independent powers to seize territories. It was under this background that the Lu Bank was born. After three generations of hard work by the Lu Family, the operation of the Lu Bank had provided great convenience to the business development of various forces. Under such a background, anyone who could thoroughly control the Lu bank could be considered a threat to other powers. The Nangong Family and the Kongtong Sect were neighbors. If it weren’t for the fear of other parties attacking them, they would have long seized the Lu Family and Lu Zibai and his family members. In recent years, the Nangong family’s Nangong Ping’s father, Nangong Wei, had his body gradually decayed. Recently, news of him being in critical danger had been spread out. Once Nangong Wei died, Nangong Ping would become the new ruler of the Nangong Family. Although Nangong Ping had praised Lu Zibai on many occasions, Lu Zibai clearly understood that all of this was just an appearance. Nangong Ping’s wish of annexing the Lu Bank was no less than Nangong Wei’s. If Nangong Ping really held the power of the Nangong Family, then the Lu Family Bank would meet an unprecedented calamity.
