C13 Drunkard is the most annoying ghost in the world

Other than Luo Yi, there were three other men present who were grown up, so of course they couldn't just watch as Luo Yi fell to the ground. Xu Heng was the first to react, and even though he moved at the fastest speed, the moment Luo Yi cried out in shock, he had already strode forward and held his hand by his waist.

The few of them were currently at the back garden of the general's manor, and within the large cluster of flowers and shrubs, there was a cobblestone path laid out for people to walk on. It was only because Luo Yi had stepped on the edge that she was unable to stand steadily, and at the same time, her right leg had unconsciously retreated, and even if she could not fall down, one of her feet had stepped on the mud path at the side. And because it had coincidentally rained last night, her shoes were already stained with a lot of mud.

Luo Yi was still in a panicked state and borrowing the force to stabilize herself, before she could even raise her head, he heard a question from above: "Is Miss Luo alright?"

"I'm fine." Luo Yi answered quickly, and the moment he steadied himself, he retreated out of the embrace of the medical stand, and then moved a few steps back, stopping beside Xu Heng.

Xu Heng turned his head slightly to look at her: "Are you alright?"

Luo Yi raised her head and looked into his eyes for a moment, then gently shook her head.

In the end, this was just a small episode. Since there were no major problems, there was no need to pay any more attention to it. The few of them turned their gazes away from Luo Yi, and continued with their previous conversation, and only Luo Yi, before lifting her leg again, looked down at the place where she had stepped on just now.

The steward of the general's manor moved quickly. As soon as they strolled around the courtyard, they saw that the person had lowered his head and had obediently blocked their way. He then respectfully turned his body to reveal a pavilion that was built according to the water: "Milords, the dishes and wine have been prepared."

The infirmary looked rather rough, but he didn't expect that the construction of the mansion would be so good. With flowers and water, the only thing missing was a fake mountain.

After drinking the wine in his stomach, a few drops of it flowed down the back of his neck before it disappeared into his chest, "This courtyard was originally chosen and built by the old steward. I'm just a brute, how could I know how to look good?"

The Liefeng Priest laughed heartily. "You deserve the reward!"

"Indeed." Liu Liangyun agreed indifferently, but he did not continue the topic. Instead, he poured a cup of wine and toasted Xu Heng, "I heard that the person who collaborated with Brother Xin went back on his word and caused Brother Xin to make this trip in vain. He went back on his word and did such a despicable thing …"

He paused, and upon seeing that Xu Heng had followed suit and raised his cup, he also gulped down the alcohol, "If Brother Xin is willing, then you can tell us who this person is, and General Liam and I will definitely seek justice for you."

"Brother Liu, you're too polite." Xu Heng laughed and waved his hand.

His words were similar to what he said before when he tried to lie to the doctor. However, everything in the business world was difficult to predict, so there was no need to make things difficult for others. Hearing this, the infirmary seemed quite familiar. After silently looking Liu Liangyun in the eye, they also tried to persuade him, "You can't say that."

"Brother Xin, the culprit who was assassinated two days ago hasn't been caught. I reckon it has something to do with this villain who went back on his words." Brother Xin, why don't you just say it so that I can send someone to investigate it?

"This …"

Xu Heng was still in doubt, the infirmary waited for a long time but still did not receive a reply, as though it was displeased, and knocked the stone table heavily with the bottom of the cup: "Brother Xin, you don't trust me?"

"Where did Brother Lian get that from?" As if provoked by his words, Xu Heng's face darkened, but in the next moment, he regained his composure and sighed to Liu Liangyun, "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that I don't want to trouble everyone here …"

As he spoke, he was about to retort when he was the first to interrupt him, "And this person, Brother Liu knows him."

"I know him?" Liu Liangyun was also stunned by Ma Xiaonian's words. He frowned deeply, and then, as if he was enlightened by something, he asked, "Ma Xiaonian?"

"That's him."

Liu Liangyun thought for a while as if he was trying to figure out whether Ye Xiao's words were true or false.

Today was the first time he and Xu Heng had met, and the only chance he had was to give the other party a peek at the person beside him the moment he met the Ma family servant. Therefore, although he knew a lot of people, he could only call him that one from Xin Li's mouth.

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, giving Xu Heng a verbal promise of "in the future, when I see that fellow, I will definitely have a good talk with him".

At the same time, the Medical Examiner was also stunned.

Previously, he suspected that Xin Li, other than the two who were by his side when he lost the cell key, had also investigated secretly about the types of businesses in the city that had not had any business interactions with the cold-looking merchant. However, due to preconceived suspicions that Xin Li was involved, the Medical Examiner first excluded the larger and larger shops during the investigation — — After all, this kind of large shop was not suitable for cheating, so if he were to lie, it would be easy for others to find out about it — — and Ma Mansion was on the list that he had excluded.

For a moment, the Medical Examiner was at a loss.

Since Xin Li dared to say this name, it showed that he was not afraid of being investigated. Furthermore, he had clearly heard the conversation between Liu Liangyun and the Ma family servant with his own ears …

The latter shook his head, indicating that he should not act rashly. He then raised his glass and said, "Meeting each other is fate. I will treat Brother Xin and Boss Ma to a meal some other time. If there's any misunderstanding, we can solve it ourselves."

"Brother Xin, please don't decline." "No," he said. The implication was that he would find an opportunity to verify the identity of the man.

Luo Yi was completely amazed by what she saw once again.

Even though she already knew this person's true identity beforehand and was deceived by the other party's acting skills, she still could not help but feel chills behind her back, as if Xu Heng and her were going to be betrayed in the next second. Of course, this was only her worrying about the heavens, the three of them had already finished their own stories, and were happily drinking and chatting, no one could tell that they were just testing each other out.

Luo Yi rolled her eyes. In a daze, she felt that she had forgotten something, but she had actually forgotten something …

Luo Yi's eyebrows were deeply furrowed, and with a turn of her head, she coincidentally saw Xu Heng casually carrying a jar of wine and drinking it into his stomach.

The two people beside him did the same.

Luo Yi:...

Liu Liangyun's alcohol capacity was not easy to evaluate, but Xu Heng's alcohol capacity was not bad at all. It was fine, but the alcohol content was not good. I don't care if this is appropriate or not!

Thinking of this, Luo Yi immediately turned her head and stared at Xu Heng nervously, afraid that this person would try to trick her again when he was drunk, but it was already too late.

The instant Xu Heng put down the wine jar, as if he felt the blazing gaze by his side, he hugged the jar of wine and slowly turned his head.

The drunk brain could not keep up with his body's movements. His long and narrow eyes were squinted, giving him a sense of elegance.

It took him quite a while to recognize the person in front of him. His confused expression suddenly changed, and a silly smile appeared on his face. He then casually threw the wine jar on the ground, and with a crisp sound, opened his mouth.

Luo Yi's heart thumped loudly.

In order to move faster than his brain, Luo Yi pounced forward.

Xu Heng's body was also leaning forward a moment ago, but the two of them were actually hugging each other tightly. Xu Heng raised his head from Luo Yi's embrace, his eyes narrowed even more into slits. Then, he lowered his head and rubbed forcefully against Luo Yi's chest, as if he had no bones.

Luo Yi laughed dryly, taking advantage of Xu Heng's dizziness during this period of time when he did not have a chance to speak, he quickly scooped the person up onto his shoulder and was thinking of an excuse to bring him back into the house, when Liu Liangyun, who was at the side, looked in his direction and actually opened his mouth: "Brother Xin, are you drunk?"

Thinking about the meaning of these words, Luo Yi cautiously nodded his head, afraid that the doctor wouldn't believe it, and even used his hand to poke Xu Heng's cheek.

squinted his eyes and opened it up with a wave of his hand.

He raised his eyes and looked at Luo Yi for a moment. Then, without knowing what was going through his mind, he lowered his head and shouted, "Don't laugh!"

Which one of your eyes saw me laughing?!

Luo Yi was so angry that she could barely speak, she scolded "bastard" in his heart, and barely managed to suppress the depression in his heart. Just as she was about to say that she would bring her back to his room, Liu Liangyun spoke up for her: "Since Brother Xin is drunk, then let's go back to your room earlier, so that we won't have a headache tomorrow."

"Lord Liu is right." As if he was extremely anxious, he raised his hand and called the servant who had been standing by the side the whole time to come over: "Have you cleaned up the rooms?"

"Yes."

"That's just nice," the Liefeng Priest pointed at Luo Yi and Luo Yi: "Send them back to their room for rest. Be careful on the road, don't hurt my guests."

As she said that, she turned her gaze back to Luo Yi: "It's better for Miss Luo to rest early. It's cool outside and this girl's body is weak.

There didn't seem to be anything wrong with those words, but after thinking about them carefully, he felt that there were a few suspicious points. Luo Yi suspiciously swept his eyes across the two of them, his face did not have any expression, and even purposefully revealed a relieved expression: "Then I'll be troubling Master Lian."

The medicine table nodded, and gave a few more instructions to the servants. Only after spending a lot of effort on the surface did they finally let the few of them leave.

Even Luo Yi could tell that Liu Liangyun was purposely separating the two of them, let alone the Alchemist Guild member who was serving as a doctor.

He watched the two for a while, and only when he was completely out of sight did he turn around and ask Liu Lianyun in a low voice, "Sir Liu, do you have something to tell me?"

Ever since Liu Liangyun kept pouring wine into Xu Heng's cup, he had felt that something was amiss. However, since Liu Liangyun had made a name for himself, he did not think too much about it, and even helped the other party to get Xin Li drunk. Seeing that he could not wait to take Luo Yi away, the Lianzhou Board was even more certain that Liu Liangyun must have something that he could not tell him in front of those two people. Just as expected, just as he made this deduction, Liu Liangyun had already signalled for him to come closer, then lowered his voice and said, "That Xin Li is not simple, you should be careful."

Liu Liangyun was alone when he left the house. When the doctor sent him away, he asked if they needed to send someone to send him back.

"No need." Liu Liangyun waved his hand. Before he could say the specific reason, a young man had already appeared at the corner in front of them.

He walked towards them with steady steps. When he came to the two of them, he knelt down and greeted Liu Liangyun, "My Lord."

After receiving the reply from Liu Liangyun, she then greeted him with a light voice, "General Liam."

With a raise of his eyebrows, the doctor waved him away.

This young man was Liu Liangyun's personal bodyguard. The Liefeng Priest had heard from someone that although Liu Liangyun was shrewd, he had never shown mercy in matters concerning principles. Thus, he had offended many people, and had been assassinated countless times. Therefore, he gritted his teeth and bought a personal guard from the slave market.

The Medical Examiner had never fought with this guard before, he had only heard that he was one of the top experts. Back then, when he was sold to the slave market, he had also been unaware of the others' doings. In fact, he might be able to escape by himself. However, he was bought back by Liu Liangyun before he could make a move.

Since Liu Liangyun had saved his life — even if he didn't need it, he could be considered as his savior. Therefore, he had remained behind in a very chivalrous manner and had condescended to be Liu Liangyun's personal bodyguard, helping him to take care of those unfortunate fellows who had run into the blade.

Liu Liangyun was having an extra meal at the mansion when he left today …

As a manual worker, it wasn't impossible for him to get hungry faster. He only left a message for Master Liu to go to the Ma Mansion to find him. However, when he finished his meal at the Ma Mansion, he realized that not only was Master Liu not at the Ma Mansion, he had never stepped into this place before. Just a second before he went berserk, the servant who sent the message said that he saw Master Liu with General Liam today … Before he could finish his sentence, the vicious looking person had already disappeared.

When he climbed up to the top of the wall of the general's manor, he saw his master sitting in the pavilion, drinking wine. He waited at the door, not taking the initiative to go over and ruin the scenery.

Hearing this, the expression of the Medical Examiner changed.

The soldiers in the general's manor were all experts that he had personally trained, but not a single one of them noticed that this person had climbed onto her fake wall …

He was too preoccupied with this matter that he did not notice when the other two had left. When he came back to his senses, he could not even see a shadow of them.

On the other side, after the two had completely disappeared from sight, the young man turned his head and looked around. After confirming that there was no one following them, he asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Liu Liangyun did not reply, but his expression was firm.

He thought back to that day in the secret chamber. That man who was slightly younger than him had a calm expression and said something that could be called a great disrespect.

Liu Lianyun was shocked. After a moment, he forced himself to calm down and asked in a cold voice, "Why me?"

"Because you're smart."

That person spoke as if it was a matter of course. The corner of his mouth even had a smile that did not contain any warmth. "You know what is the best choice."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll expose you? "…"

Liu Liangyun paused for two seconds and said, "If I go out and repeat what you just said, you will die for sure."

"You won't."

Even though he had made it so plain, the man in front of him still spoke neither slowly nor hurriedly. At this moment, his originally delicate face became even more enchanting, "You know better than everyone here that he is not worth it."
