Chapter 353 Carving Dragons and Transforming Phoenixes
"But I knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered. I was worried that something had happened, so after discussing it, we just pushed the door open and came in."
"The result was a complete mess on the floor, and the bed was covered in blood. It was terrifying." Li'er recalled what had happened, and she was still terrified when she thought about it.
"And then what?"
"Then, I was terrified from the start. I saw everyone running out, so I followed them out."
"Me too."
"Me too."
"Me too."
······
The other maids gave the same answer.
"Who was the first to run out? And who called for help?"
"I didn't," Li'er waved her hand and shook her head.
"not me."
"I didn't shout."
"It wasn't me either."
The maids looked at each other and were surprised to find that they weren't the first ones.
"I was so scared that I was only focused on running out. I didn't have time to call for help."
“It seems like you were in front of me, and you were the one who called out, weren’t you?” one of the maids said, pointing to another.
"I didn't shout, it wasn't me." The maid being pointed at quickly shook her head, indicating that it wasn't her.
"That's strange. Why wasn't everyone the first to run out? And everyone said they didn't shout, but I clearly heard them."
Li'er was quite certain that the voice was quite loud, and the person shouting was right next to her.
"Indeed, I came over because I heard a woman calling for help from inside the house," Zhan Yunfei testified, confirming that someone was indeed calling for help.
"Since none of you were the first to run out, and none of you shouted, that means there's a ninth person calling for help."
"Ah, the ninth person?"
"Li Lianhua, where did this ninth person come from?" Fang Duobing counted the maids in front of him; there were clearly only eight. "Are you saying that Wei Qingchou disguised herself as a maid and escaped by blending in with the others?"
"Fang Duobing, think about it from another angle. Since E Yue was able to sneak in when there were many people, why couldn't Wei Qingchou sneak out in the same way?"
“Youyou is right. This explains why Eyue’s outer garment is missing.”
“Li Lianhua, don’t be in such a hurry. If this were a woman, it would be very possible. But Wei Qingchou is a man. No matter how well he pretends, his voice can’t be broken, right?”
"Maybe the groom is a woman?" Li Lianhua's words surprised many people present, who then expressed disbelief.
"Li Lianhua, stop fooling around at a time like this."
"Fang Xiaobao, have you forgotten? When Su Xiaoyong was disguised as a man, you didn't recognize her either, did you?"
"I... I didn't see clearly." Fang Duobing, whose dark past had been exposed, still stubbornly insisted: "There are so many people in Tianji Manor, does everyone not know the difference between men and women?"
"Besides, my aunt has been spending so much time with Wei Qingchou, how could she not have noticed?"
"I've just thought about this problem too, a unique set of techniques."
"What kind of cultivation technique is it?"
"Brother Zhan, you said that Wei Qingchou's martial arts moves are cramped and timid. When you spar with him, did you notice that he always protects his Shenque acupoint and dares not unleash his full power?"
"How did you know?" I haven't even said anything yet, how did he know?
"That's it. Have you ever heard of a peculiar martial art in the martial world called 'Carving Dragon and Transforming into Phoenix'?"
