Chapter 29
The fragrance disappeared without a trace after Jiang Ran opened his eyes.
Jiang Ran couldn't tell whether it was the afterglow of a dream or if someone really had stayed in this room.
He stared at the ceiling above him for a moment.
I feel a little ashamed.
I feel a little funny again.
Just listening to Tang Huayi's nonsense words, he actually had that strange dream.
He shook his head, stood up, and frowned slightly when he turned to look out the door.
There was no one outside the door... When Tang Huayi brought him here yesterday, there was obviously a maid.
Why is there... no one here?
He stood up, opened the door, and came to the yard.
The old shady trees in the yard still stand quietly.
Jiang Ran looked at the tree, shook his head, opened the courtyard door and walked out.
Along the way, they passed the garden pavilion corridor...
However, the further they walked, the uglier Jiang Ran's face became.
Suddenly, he took nine steps on the sky and flew up to the house. He had a panoramic view of the entire Tang family.
no one!
No one is anywhere!
In addition to Tang Yuan, Mrs. Tang, Tang Huayi, Sun Fu, servant, maid, and martial artist guarding the courtyard.
All the people disappeared overnight, and the entire mansion was empty!
Jiang Ran couldn't believe it. The Tang family had a great business, how could it be possible that the building was empty overnight?
There had never been such a moment when Jiang Ran was so confused.
After all...he just came to stay for one night. When he woke up, the Tang family was empty!
This, where can I explain this?
There are always weird things happening in the world, and when they are mentioned in teahouses and taverns, they are often laughed at.
But it can't be any weirder than what's happening now, right?
He walked and searched all the way, and finally came to the main hall.
The door to the main hall opened, and he strolled into it. When he saw no one was there, he was about to leave.
However, he caught sight of something out of the corner of his eye.
I immediately looked back and took a closer look, it was a painting.
It is placed on the table next to the main seat.
He slowly came to the painting.
The painting shows a small courtyard.
The bright moon hangs high, and there is a tree in the yard under the moon.
The trees are thick with shade, blocking out the starlight.
Under the tree, a woman in white, wearing a tulle face, was playing the piano...
In front of the woman, there was a man standing, quietly admiring it.
This painting, with its delicate and soft brushstrokes, seems to have been made by a woman, with skillful techniques and lifelike characters.
It is a rare masterpiece.
But Jiang Ran looked at him with a very strange expression.
"...It's not a dream."
He murmured to himself. The content of this painting was exactly what he had dreamed about on the first day of the month last night.
But if it was really a dream, how could it be painted like this?
Now, what is the purpose of keeping this painting here?
Tell yourself...everything last night is true?
But even if it were true, where had the Tang family gone?
Could it be that he ran away?
But the problem is... people just take advantage and run away.
And to take a step back, even if something really happened yesterday, it seems that I was not the one who suffered.
What are they running for?
Jiang Ran frowned, picked up the painting and put it aside.
He sat on the Taishi's chair and began to piece together everything that happened after arriving at the Tang Mansion yesterday, crushing it into pieces and thinking about it.
When he thought about it, he discovered.
Something's wrong...
everywhere is wrong!
How did Yuan Tang recognize himself when he first met him?
Have you met yourself in the past?
Or did the old drunkard draw a portrait of him?
But when did the old drunkard learn to draw?
If this is because Jiang Ran misunderstood at the time, he didn't think about it carefully.
But when Tang Huayi called her brother-in-law, why didn't she think carefully about how she recognized him?
Once you have this consideration, you can also think of the fact that the old drunkard can't draw, right?
But why was it that I was blinded by lard and never thought about this matter from beginning to end?
After returning to the Tang family, Tang Yuanwai asked Tang Huayi to have dinner with him alone.
A girl who had just been kidnapped by gangsters and was rescued.
Her performance was a bit too indifferent.
Even if you don't mention this, she is a young daughter, but she is a brother-in-law who only met her for the first time and only made a verbal agreement.
How could Yuan Tang let her entertain him?
After that, when I had dinner with Tang Huayi, it was even more strange.
No matter what the girl said or did, he felt that she was cute and naive, and he couldn't help but have a lot of good feelings in his heart.
This is definitely not Jiang Ran's character.
But at that time...why didn't you notice it?
Jiang Ran tapped his forehead lightly.
Although I don’t know how the Tang family did it.
But now that I think about it, I realized that I was on the right track!
It's just...this thing is weird, but that's why it's weird.
There are plans and plans, but if there is a plan, there must be a plan.
If the Tang family is really acting as a family and deceiving themselves...then what do they want for themselves?
Is he expected to die soon? Picture of his near death?
"You can't be greedy for my body, right?"
Jiang Ran was almost amused by his own idea, and shook his head gently:
"This is absolutely impossible.
" But if this is the case, what did they get from me? "
Then Jiang Ran thought of the old drunkard's letter.
That letter was in the old drunkard's handwriting.
Even the tone was exactly the same.
This cannot be faked by others. It
is precisely because of this that Jiang Ran really has no regard for the Tang family. Doubtful.
All I was thinking about was how to cancel the marriage.
Who would have thought that the marriage that the old drunkard found was not reliable in itself...
Was the old liar deceived by another group of liars?
When Jiang Ran thought of this, he became a little worried about this old drunkard.
If the letter is true, then the old drunkard may have really left the Tang family and even Cangzhou Mansion as Tang Yuanwai said.
But if there is something wrong with this letter...
Where is the old drunkard now?
Jiang Ran didn't have to worry about what the Tang family had planned.
Why did he suddenly run away overnight again?
But he couldn't help but consider the old drunkard's life.
If you continue to stay here, you will probably gain nothing.
After all, he was determined to leave, so why would he leave clues for Jiang Ran to find?
"However, the Tang family has been in Cangzhou Mansion for so many years, so there should be some traces to follow."
Thinking of this, he stopped staying and turned around to leave.
I just walked to the door of the main hall and took another look at the painting.
After pondering slightly, he still didn't take it, turned around, and walked away without looking back.
Not long after Jiang Ran left, a slender hand came out from the side and held the painting in his palm. White clothes were
flying, and there was a faint sigh, but it disappeared like a cloud of smoke...
The door of Tang Mansion was locked, and Jiang Ran climbed out from one side of the wall. As soon as I walked onto the street, before I could tell the direction, I heard people talking. "What a tragedy... Qinghe Gang is said to be one of the three major gangs in Cangzhou Prefecture. " How come the whole family was wiped out overnight? " Jiang Ran's steps stopped involuntarily. The Qinghe Gang...was wiped out? " "Who says it's not the case?" I heard it was very miserable, Fan Yumou, a few hall masters, and, by the way, the eldest son Fan Jiwu. "They are all dead. They are all bleeding from their orifices. Their deaths are horrific." Jiang Ran listened silently and slowly turned his head to look at the dead Tang Mansion gate. His eyes turned again, but he was suddenly stunned again. Where did the noodle stall across from Tangfu Street and the chattering noodle stall owner go? (End of chapter)
