Chapter 147 Trap

Daoyuan was also surprised by the boss's eloquence. When he saw Lei Luo's reaction, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You are also taking it upon yourself. Who told you to find trouble?"

Lei Luo said: "If we act in the middle of the day, we have to wait for several hours. It would be a bit boring for such a long time, so we wanted to find some fun to pass the time. Who knew that we would encounter this strange thing!"

The two chatted indiscriminately, with fewer and fewer customers in the tavern, and in the end they were the two of them.

The boss finally got idle and came to greet him from time to time to see what else needed.

After a few times, Lei Luo simply took out fifty taels of silver and threw it to him: "We don't want anything anymore, so you can save some effort and go down and rest."

The boss took it overjoyed and entered the inner hall with great gratitude, no longer disturbing the two of them.

Time passes slowly.

The tea is cold, the wine is cold, and the food is gone and has become dead.

Boring waiting is the most test of a person's personality.

Lei Luo looked at the Taoist fate that seemed to have entered into meditation, and felt more and more impatient. He kept pinching his fingers to calculate the time, muttering in his heart: Why not yet, why not yet yet...

Another hour passed, and the surroundings and even in the distance became quiet. The occasional barking of dogs from somewhere was so clear that it fell into my ears.

Not long after, when Lei Luo felt drowsy, he heard Daoyuan whisper: "It's almost time, let's go."

Lei Luo rubbed his face hard and woke up. The two of them quietly left the tavern and took advantage of the night to touch Xiao's mansion.

Since it is a night visit, we naturally cannot walk through the main entrance.

After coming outside the wall to the north, the two stopped.

Accompanied by a breeze, Jin'er's figure appeared on the wall, and he jumped into Daoyuan's arms and began to gesture.

After a while, Lei Luoyi gave a thumbs up and praised: "I actually checked the situation inside so clearly. Jin'er is indeed a good person!"

Then he asked Yuan: "Boss, since the head of the Xiao family has not come back yet, it means that your inference is correct! Logically speaking, in this case, the old man had to send a few people to protect Xiaoxiao before leaving, but now there are only two maids in his room to serve him. Do you think it was the one who made the matter with Butler Fan?"

Daoyuan nodded and said, "It's very likely. But this is just right for us to do things. After entering later, you and Jin'er will be guarding outside. If Housekeeper Fan has other tricks, we will rob Xiao Xiao and take him to a safe place even if we rob him."

"Don't worry, boss, I know how to do it."

"Walk."

The two of them jumped gently, instantly climbed over the courtyard wall, landed silently on the ground like a raccoon cat, and walked carefully towards Xiao Xiaoxiao's room.

The huge Xiao Mansion was quiet at this time, except for the few lanterns under the eaves swaying gently in the breeze, no one could see them.

The two of them have been to Xiao's house more than once. They can be said to be familiar with the road, avoiding the bright spots, and soon came outside Xiao Xiao's room.

Daoyuan listened with his ear against the wall and found that there were indeed three breathing sounds inside.

One of them was faintly abnormal, intermittent, and it was obviously Xiao Xiaoxiao.

The other two are a bit heavy, and they sound like they are sent by ordinary people, so they should be the two maids.

Daoyuan handed Jin'er to Lei Luo, made a gesture with him, gently pushed open the door, and flashed into it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he suddenly felt a faint spiritual power covering him. The true energy that was originally running on the live wave suddenly stagnated. He felt a sudden sensation in his heart and immediately reacted: No, it is a barrier trap!

The sword of life and death appeared in his hand in an instant. Daoyuan's thoughts moved slightly. He was about to shake off this invisible bondage, but suddenly felt a strong wind rising from his back. A cold long sword was placed on his neck. An old voice shouted in a low voice: "Don't move!"

The voice was very familiar, and Daoyuan was stunned: "Head of the Xiao family?"

"Huh? Daoyuan?"

This person is Xiao Zhenshan.

He immediately recognized Daoyuan's words and was immediately surprised: "How could it be you?"

"Why did the head of the family ask this? Is there anyone else coming?" Daoyuan felt something vaguely.

Xiao Zhenshan did not answer, slowly withdrew his sword, walked to him and looked at him, and asked, "Why did you sneak here in the middle of the night?"

"The head of the family should not be too careful. I am here to treat Xiaoxiao."

Daoyuan knew that he might have misunderstood, so he quickly told the story about the previous incident, but did not say that he suspected that Butler Fan, but said that he felt something was wrong with the Xiao family, so he came up with this bad plan.

Finally, he said: "The reason why I am so presumptuous is really helpless. I hope my family leader forgives me!"

"So that's how it is." After hearing this, Xiao Zhenshan's eyebrows slightly spread out.

Daoyuan glanced at the bed and found three servants there, lying and sitting there, closing his eyes silently, and not moving at all, as if someone had lit acupoints.

"Head of the family, what's going on?"

Xiao Zhenshan sighed: "I actually feel the situation you just said, and you don't have to hide it. There is indeed an insider who is traitor in my Xiao family!"

"I did this to lure the snake out of the hole and find this bastard. It is best to even find out the forces behind him!"

Daoyuan asked, "In other words, you are not actually sure who is the inner demon in the mansion?"

Xiao Zhenshan said: "I heard from your tone, it seems you know?"

Daoyuan smiled bitterly: "With your experience and the most familiarity with your servants, I believe I have guessed some of them in my heart. This is not convenient for me to say more about this."

Xiao Zhenshan's face became heavier and heavier, obviously thinking of someone he didn't want to believe but had to doubt.

After the two said these words, Lei Luo outside knew nothing, but instead, there was a faint sound of wind coming.

Daoyuan Xindao, it turns out that the barrier arranged by the head of the Xiao family is one-way, and you can hear the sounds outside inside, but you can't hear the words inside outside.

"Where is Xiaoxiao now? How is his situation?"

Xiao Zhenshan said: "He was secretly transferred to the secret room by me. It's very safe. As for the current situation..."

He suddenly stared at Daoyuan with hope: "You said you were here to treat Xiaoxiao, could it be... Could it be..."

Of course, Daoyuan understood his meaning, and couldn't help but say in a dilemma: "I dare not boast that I can find the cause and cure Xiaoxiao. I can only say that I am a little sure..."

Xiao Zhenshan stagnated and after a while, he forced a smile: "No matter what, I am very grateful for your kindness! If Xiaoxiao can survive this level, everything will be fine. If he dies... Alas! This is all fate!"

This sentence contains so much reluctance, sorrow, bitterness, regret and helplessness.

Even though Daoyuan was listening next to him, he couldn't help but feel empathy and felt extremely sad.

Xiao Zhenshan frowned, his face was as deep as water, and he didn't say a word.

Daoyuan had the intention to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak.

The atmosphere in the room became very depressing.

"roar!"

Just then, Jin'er's low growl suddenly came from outside.

"Damn, who is it!"

At the same time, Lei Luo also let out a low shout.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of weapons colliding sounded.

Jin'er is very clever, and Lei Luo is even more stupid. This time he came to Xiao's mansion, he was not open and upright. If the people from Xiao's mansion discovered, they would not yell like this and alert the enemy.

That means that the one who fought with them was not the Xiao Mansion Guard, but someone else.

"It's true!" Xiao Zhenshan's eyes cold, and a powerful aura dissipated from him.
