Lost Charm

Since Du Sishao Du Ruxing was not in the mansion, they recruited some servants to ask questions, and after putting together things together, they roughly deduced Du Rudian's personality: he is very communicative, and most of the second-generation merchants in the capital have friendship. It's all about good wine and non-marital affairs, so even though he went out to discuss business with Du Zhi many times, there was no rumor that he was about to inherit Du Zhi's position. Everyone knows about returning home.

They didn't know how many servants they met that afternoon, during which time Ye Heng pretended to pick out a few people who were in the line of sight, and they didn't think of other actions until night fell.

"Do you think we look like we're investigating the case?" Yu Chijiong said while sorting out the servant's remarks.

"It's especially like the one who came to investigate the family property case. If the eldest son died, who will benefit." Ye Heng yawned, agreeing with Yu Chijiong's words.

"Maybe it's true?" Xu Qin said, since Du Zhi recognized the monster, his son would naturally be affected too. If he encounters an injured monster, they are more likely to treat the monster as compared to other people in the house. hide.

"Didn't you hear what Du Wushao said? He is not afraid of us dragging him into the water at all. This proves that Du Zhi believes that Du Dashao made him disappear, but it is impossible." Ye Heng's eyes flashed coldly, The appearance has changed from a seductive fairy to a cold-blooded fairy who kills people without blinking an eye.

Xu Qin was startled by Ye Heng's coldness, and unconsciously moved over to Yu Chijiong.Yu Chijiong seemed innocent on the surface, but his heart was full of spring flowers, so he didn't mention Ye Heng's expression.

"I'm a little interested in Du Rufei's last sentence." Yu Chijiong glanced at Xu Qin who had calmed down and wanted to distance himself quietly, so he threw the question to divert the other party's attention.

Xu Qin paused, carefully recalled what Du Rufei said, and combined with Du Zhi's attitude, said: "They think... Du Rudian's disappearance is not a bad thing, if he comes back, he can secure Du Zhi's seat .”

"But Du Rufei doesn't seem to take it seriously." Yuchi said, "He's just watching a show."

Ye Heng took Yu Chijiong's prepared statement, glanced at it quickly, and put it on the stage, saying: "So what needs to be clarified is, since Du Zhi thought it would be a good thing to disappear, why did he still find us. "

Yu Chijiong glanced at Xu Qin who was sitting away after all, and said with regret: "The water in Du's residence is so deep."

Ye Heng thought that Yu Chijiong's regret meant that he participated in this matter, so he said casually, "Your feet are wet, why are you arguing?"

After the three of them had a hasty dinner, Yu Chijiong and Xu Qinxi wrote amulets and left early, while Ye Heng stayed behind to pester Du Zhi.Ye Heng calmly put forward the request to meet with the female family members and search the houses of Ning Baihu. If Du Zhi didn't want to talk to him about these things, he could still ask the other party about the results of today's investigation.

Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin returned to the room, quickly put on their night clothes, and comforted Ning Baihu along the way, preventing this chicken with blind eyes from running out of the room to do bad things.Yu Chijiong was very confident in escaping from the room through the beam without disturbing the servants outside the door, but because he wanted to take Xu Qin with him, he stunned the gatekeeper with a blowing needle, and made him fall into a sleepless sleep. Look, strode away from the main door of the room.

Du Zhi didn't allow the servants to approach the study room, which made it easier for Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin to sneak in, and broke in without any effort.Yu Chijiong was worried that Xu Qin was inexperienced, so he had repeatedly instructed him not to light up the lamp in the room temporarily, so the two of them turned left and right in the room in the dark under the moonlight. , After turning over, put things back in place.

Most of the books in the room were ledgers, and Yu Chijiong was worried that Du Zhi would use them to record things like Du Ba, so he flipped through them, but unfortunately most of them were numbers, it seemed that it was just Du Ba's unique habit.Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin made eye contact, but neither of them noticed anything.

No, the old man Du Zhi has been sitting for so long, there must be something...

Both Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin firmly believed that there must be something weird in the study, and then their eyes fell on the small ball of paper at the foot of the desk in unison.Yuchi Jiong bent down and picked up one of the small crumpled paper balls, which contained only eight words: "Heaven against the sky, fruit to follow, wood to earth to eliminate."

Wood-soil synthesis is Du, what does Du have that can defy the sky?Thoughts flashed across Yu Chijiong's eyes, he had never heard of such a special legend about the Du family.But having said that, Qu Moaoti didn't mention the affairs he's dealt with recently, and they were all figured out by himself. It seems that it's time for him to ask Master to revise the teaching materials.

Xu Qin also picked up one and spread it out to read. It also had the same words written on it. He compared it with Du Zhi's letter, and the handwriting was exactly the same. It can be seen that these unknown sentences were all written by Du Zhi.

There was a sudden vibration from the jade pot around his waist, and Yu Chijiong knew that it was Ye Heng who couldn't hold Du Zhi any longer, so he put the note in his arms and retreated with Xu Qin.

Contrary to the last night visit, Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin easily returned to the room, however, someone was already there waiting for them.

As soon as Yu Chijiong pushed the door, he felt something was wrong, but the other party was not hostile, and he just stopped Xu Qin behind him.

"Ba Shao came to disturb me at such a late hour, I think it must be something important."

There was a chuckle in the darkness, followed by Du Ba's voice: "Master Zhi and I hit it off right away. The moon is bright tonight. I wonder if Master Zhi would like to watch the moon with my younger brother?"

Yu Chijiong's face turned cold, this kid actually hooked up with Xu Qin in front of him, regardless of whether he was the son of a ghost, he just wanted to beat him to death now.

The upright Xu Qin glanced at the dark sky, and replied: "No, Ba Shao, you may not be able to see it in the room. There was still a little moonlight just now, but now there is nothing. You can't see the moon even if you want to."

Yu Chijiong suddenly felt that a few green grasses grew on his head, and they were vigorously swaying in accordance with Xu Qin's words.

Xu Qin didn't know that Yu Chijiong was caring about the plants above his head, recalled the small ledger taken from Du Ba's bed, and continued: "I also happen to have something to ask Ba Shao, if Ba Shao doesn't mind, we can have a long talk. "

The top of Yuchijiong's head is not just a few grasses, but a large plain, and Xu Qin will say a few more words, and Ning Baihu can run on it.

With a smile in his eyes, Du Ba looked at Yu Chijiong whose face turned black and then green, finally stood up and said, "Forget about tonight, I'll look for you to enjoy the moon tomorrow. If there are other people around you, I won't show up." .”

At this moment, Xu Qin finally sensed something was wrong, looked at Du Ba a bit like looking at the old Wang next door, and said, "Are you kidding me?"

Du Ba said innocently: "How come? I just came to see how you searched the study room, and it seems that you have gained something."

Yu Chijiong immediately reacted, and said: "If there is no harvest, are you going to give us clues yourself? Then you might as well tell us the murderer directly."

Du Ba shook his head, casually threw the ball of paper in his sleeve to the ground, and rejected Yu Chijiong's suggestion: "Did I say that I know who the murderer is? Instead of obsessing over the inheritance of the past, I will be the most sober among them."

Yu Chijiong frowned, Du Ba deliberately ignored the other party's expression about to speak, and said, "Sometimes, when you leave, you won't come back. What are they waiting for?"

Xu Qin just changed his tone and refused to reveal the truth, and couldn't help scolding: "That's not what your little book says."

Du Ba turned his head sideways, glanced at Xu Qin, and said: "Since it's you asking... I saw a figure, a man, probably one of my good brothers, as for who it is, I didn't pay attention. "

"What is the inheritance of the Du family?" Yu Chijiong asked.

"Heh, you don't know how to check it yourself?" Du Ba didn't respond directly this time.

"You don't believe I'll arrest you and torture you?" Although Yu Chijiong said so, he still stood at the door without moving.

"In the Du Mansion, no one can catch me unless I volunteer." Seeing Yu Chijiong blocking the door, Du Ba kicked through the paper window without hesitation and slipped through the window.

Yu Chijiong and Xu Qin glanced at each other, quickly changed back into their clothes, and found Mixiang in the room—seeing that Ning Baihu slept so well that he even left saliva, he knew that the fragrance was quite effective.Yu Chijiong patted the fainted servant to wake him up, and blamed Du Ba for everything, saying that the other party used Mixiang to play tricks and asked for a new guest room.

As soon as Ye Heng came back, he saw that more than half of the window carved with paper flowers was broken, and his eyes immediately focused on Yu Chijiong, who had a criminal record - he was secretly criticized by Du Zhi this morning, and now he buys one and gets one free. Give him a chance to be scolded by Du Zhi?

"It's not me, it's Young Master Ba." Yu Chijiong glanced at Ye Heng and knew what the other person was thinking. Except for He Tong, this kid was always jealous of everyone else. He didn't want to be hated, so he quickly clarified.

Ye Heng stared at Yu Chijiong suspiciously, not quite believing what the other party said.

Xu Qin took the incense in the room at this moment, interjected, "Master, it's true."

Taking advantage of no one paying attention to the three of them, Ye Heng whispered, "What does he want to do?"

Yu Chijiong raised his head, looked around, but muttered something in his mouth: "I was worried that our investigation was not effective, so I came to send something, but we also found it."

When Xu Qin saw that someone was coming, he hurriedly "shushed", put on a friendly face, and said to the person: "But it's arranged?"

The servant replied: "Master knows the matter, and always feels that you have surprised the masters. There is nothing in the house to apologize for, so the master specially ordered the villains to lead the masters to the jade spring at night. After the master takes a bath, he can sit next to him." Rest in the house, everything is ready."

Yu Chijiong's expression slightly distorted, as expected, people like Du Zhi who show off their wealth would really feel sorry for themselves if they didn't steal their homes.Compared with Du's Mansion, Yuchi's Mansion is simply a tent of border nomads. No, Du Zhi has a hot spring, and his family has a big prison. Du's Mansion certainly doesn't have such things... Thinking of this, his complexion got better again.

Xu Qin glanced at Yu Chijiong, wondering if he should ask - will Du Zhi soak with them in that spring?

If so, he would rather choose death directly, he is not interested in seeing an old man naked.
