little couple

On the first night when the imperial envoy came to Heguicheng, the whole Chunjing Continent waited for the long-awaited rain.

Early the next morning, the people in Hegui City began to receive disaster food, while the imperial envoy, the magistrate and others stood aside and watched.

The people in Hegui City were both happy and grateful.

Ning Yin didn't let Danggui go to pick it up, because their family still had food in stock, but Ning Yin left the city early with a basket on his back, and then went up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

It rained last night, and a lot of edible mushrooms grew under the trees in the deep mountains.

Ning Yin picked half a basket of mushrooms and some herbs, and then slowly returned to the city. When she reached the gate of the city, it was drizzling.

But at this time, Ning Yin found that two people were following him, he glanced at it and didn't care.

As soon as he recognized them, these two were bodyguards of the Humen Bodyguard Bureau. When Ning Yin was investigating the cause of Yang Rui's death, these two people were also following Ning Yin, but because the two people's martial arts were not high, and their tracking skills were not good. Not high, so Ning Yin didn't startle the snake, and pretended not to notice anything.

Ning Yin didn't bring an umbrella, and walked leisurely on the road. When passing the Hegui Bridge, she even dropped two or three copper coins into the bowl of the old beggar who was leaning on the bridge.

The old beggar didn't even open his eyes: "Thank you, thank you."

Ning Yin didn't care, and continued to walk forward. After walking for a while, he saw Wang Butou walking towards this side, while Han Butou was walking towards the bridge with a livid face. When he saw Ning Yin He also purposely snorted coldly.

……What's going on here?I got sick?

Catcher Wang noticed the surprise in Ning Yin's eyes, smiled, and said, "Leave him alone, he was scolded by the county magistrate today, and he's in a bad mood. By the way—"

At this point, Catcher Wang secretly looked at the two people not far behind Ning Yin, and said, "Those two people have been following you all the time, do you want me to catch them?"

Ning Yin shook his head indistinctly, then led Wang Butou towards the nearby restaurant, and said, "Those two were sent by the Humen Security Bureau, I know."

Upon hearing this, Wang Butou nodded in understanding.

As soon as the two of them entered the restaurant, Ning Yin walked upstairs and casually said, "Today I invite you to dinner."

Wang Butou followed, and when the two entered the wing room, ordered a few dishes, and the waiter left, he continued the topic just now: "Why do you still let the people from the Humen Security Bureau follow you?"

"It's just a few clowns. Since Hu Xingming is not afraid of losing face, why don't I help him." Ning Yin smiled.

Hearing this, Wang Catcher sincerely admired Ning Yin, "As expected of the future head of the Ning family, he has a broad mind."

"Assignment and acceptance."

The waiter put several dishes on the table. Vegetables are expensive now, but meat is much cheaper. However, because of the dry season before, the quality of the meat these days is thinner and less woody, but it is still edible.

Wang Butou looked at the three dishes and one soup in front of him, and felt that the other party must have something to do, otherwise, how could Ning Yin treat himself to these dishes so generously: "Is there something wrong with you?"

"As expected of Catcher Wang," Ning Yin patted the other party's ass, and then said: "Captain Wang, you have a lot of contacts, please help me find out, where has Ning Sujing appeared recently?"

"Ning Su...Jing?" Wang Catcher remembered: "Your brother?"

"Yes."

Although Ning Yin hated Ning Sujing for always wanting to compete with him for the position of Patriarch of the Ning family, but after all, he was a half-brother with blood thicker than water, so he couldn't really ignore Ning Sujing's safety .

What's more, Ning Yinke still remembers that a month ago, he received a letter from Ning Sujing saying that he would compete with him in half a month, but now two and a half months have passed, but Ning Sujing has not yet Appearing again... This is not at all Ning Sujing's usual style.

Wang Butou said: "Are you worried that something happened to your brother?"

"Yes." Ning Yin took a mouthful of braised chicken, chewing without taste.

Wang Butou pursed his lips and said with determination: "Actually, there is one thing I haven't had time to tell you. When I was investigating Chen Hao's murder, I passed by Ning Mansion and saw a man in black appearing in front of you by chance. At the gate of the Ning Mansion."

Ning Yin paused while drinking the soup, and said, "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I don't think that man has any ill intentions towards you. Moreover, I saw your housekeeper, Dang Gui, talking to the man in black at the door." When Catcher Wang said this, he showed a helpless smile and said: "My martial arts are not good, so I don't dare to get too close."

Angelica...

Man in black……

Bean Paste and Chestnut's new shoes...

Ning Yin continued to think while eating, it seems that Angelica must have something to hide from herself.

Light rain pattered outside the window.

Wang Butou looked around, knew that this was a wing room, and there were only him and Ning Yin in the room, but he still lowered his voice: "When you go to the martial arts competition with Boss Jin tomorrow, you have to be careful."

What Ning Yin cared about was another matter, he frowned thinking about something, and just nodded his head - even if there was no warning from Catcher Wang, Ning Yin would still understand.

After chatting for a long time, Wang Butou got up and left, he was going to patrol the streets.

Ning Yin went downstairs and left. He walked on the bluestone road, looking at the streets with more and more pedestrians, and at the drizzle floating in the sky, feeling happy in his heart.

When he reached the corner in front of the street, he turned a corner and saw Qian Qianqian hurrying towards this side with an umbrella in one hand and clothes in the other. Ning Yin paused and called him, "Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?" ?”

"It's raining," Qian Qianqian wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Where are you going?"

Ning Yin said that she was going to go home.

Qianqianqian snorted and was about to go back when he thought of something else, so he hurriedly walked over with an umbrella to help Ning Yin shelter from the drizzle, and said, "Doctor Ning, let's go, I'll take you back."

"..." Ning Yin was pulled two steps forward, the corner of her mouth twitched, and said, "What do you want from me?"

Qian Qianqian looked innocent: "I just want to send you back, it's nothing."

"Nothing?" Ning Yin looked at the other party suspiciously. After a while, he said, "I'll be home soon, and I don't need you to see her off. You can go back."

Money refused, and he followed Ning Yin begging for nothing, but refused to leave. After being asked by Ning Yin, he faltered and said: "This, isn't it, tomorrow is the martial arts competition, right? so……"

Ning Yin couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Don't forget, although I know martial arts, Humen Bodyguard Bureau hates me the most. If you stand with me, you may be troubled by me."

Qian Qianqian slapped his head: "Yes!"

Ning Yin shook his head with a smile, ignored him, raised his feet and continued to walk forward, after walking two steps, he saw Qian Qianqian chasing up again with an umbrella, and said: "Ning Yin, have you heard that?" ?”

"what?"

Qian Qianqian said: "Chen Yan'er has already run away."

"Who is Chen Yan'er? ... Oh, you said Miss Chen, if you run away, you will run away." Ning Yin didn't think so.Qian Qianqian felt that his attitude was too indifferent, so he was not satisfied and said: "This is a big deal, the darts in Wang Jie's game before, until now we haven't found out who made them—"

Ning Yin said helplessly: "But now that everyone has left, what else can you investigate?" As he spoke, he was already standing at the gate of Ning Mansion.

"Want to go in for a cup of tea?" Ning Yin asked casually when she opened the door and entered.

Qian Qianqian turned his head to look behind him, then looked at the sky, remembered his business, and said: "I also made an appointment with Xie Laoqi, you owe this cup of tea first, and you will pay it back next time."

Ning Yin: "..."

the next day---

Humen Bodyguard Bureau's long-prepared martial arts competition has begun, and the venue is located in the training ground of Humen Bodyguard Bureau in the east of the city.

None of the disciples of the Forging Sword Sect would show up, and even if they did, they would just sit on the sidelines and watch the excitement.

Ning Yin felt that this was like a play.

However, to everyone's surprise, the imperial envoy did not show up at the Humen Bodyguard Bureau, but I always hoped that the imperial envoy would also come to the scene to watch the fun, after all, it would give them a bright future in the Humen Bodyguard Bureau, but the imperial envoy flatly rejected the Humen Bodyguard Bureau. Escort Bureau's proposal, and went out of the city early in the morning to visit various villages, saying that they were going to see the situation of every household.

The leader of Hubiao didn't show up at all, so this year's Humen Bodyguard Bureau's martial arts competition was held by Hu Xingming.

The arena of the martial arts arena is open, and the surroundings outside the arena are filled with wooden chairs and tables.

Qian Qianqian was restless from the moment he entered the arena. After a while, he calmed down and said, "Ning Yin, how do you feel?"

Ning Yin was breaking peanuts and eating them one by one. Hearing this, he grabbed a handful of peanuts, handed them money, and said, "Do you want to eat?"

Qian Qianqian nodded and said while eating, "I'm not afraid anymore."

"Me too." Ning Yin yawned and said boredly.

He was looking forward to the martial arts competition held by the Humen Security Bureau at first, thinking that it would be like a martial arts conference held by the Wulin League, where all the masters gathered to learn from each other; but it turned out that the martial arts competition held by the Humen Security Bureau was a competition between their own bodyguards. It's nothing to see_These bodyguards all learned from a master, and their skills are similar, which is really boring.

Hu Xingming, who was sitting in the main seat, obviously thought the same way, his face became more and more ugly, as if he felt ashamed, after a while, he said coldly: "Pour me a cup of tea."

The servant standing in the corner came over with a pot of hot tea, poured it into Hu Xingming's cup, and stood in the corner again*

Half an hour later, Ning Yin took a sip of tea and said, "Xie Lao Qi is here."

"?" Qian Qianqian, who was sleepy, opened his eyes and looked around, only to realize that Xie Huizhou had arrived. He curled his lips and said, "Xie Lao Qi... Tsk tsk."

Xie Huizhou greeted Hu Xingming, the two hated each other, so they didn't talk much, Xie Huizhou walked away.

Ning Yin looked up at Xie Huizhou who was walking in front of him, and smiled politely: "Master Xie Qi, long time no see."

"Indeed." After Xie Huizhou sat down, he asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

Ning Yin asked back, "Why did you come?"

"I received the invitation letter, and I happened to have nothing to do, so I came." Xie Huizhou said, "I want to ask you something, did you see Zuo Wuxun?"

Ning Yin nodded: "What?"

Xie Huizhou shook his head, but didn't tell him why he asked.
