treacherous world

Bai Yutang and the fourth son pretended to be uncles in Li Ji Silk and Satin Village. Originally, they just wanted to test the depth of Li Ji, but they didn't expect to bump into a big fish by mistake—Li Gang's capable second son, Li Gang. Very much here.

This shop is relatively close to the Li family's mansion. Li Gang has told Li very much these days that a funeral will be held for Li Feifan, and the house will probably be very noisy.Knowing that the second child likes to be quiet, let him come out to avoid it and find a quiet place to live first.

Hearing that his elder brother had died, Li Feifei was sad, not to mention he didn't even blink his brows, he really looked down on Li Feifan from the bottom of his heart.Li Feifei has a characteristic of this person. He loves beauty and hates ugliness. He really hates fat and ugly people like his father and brother, especially Li Feifei's rude behavior. He often embarrasses him when he goes out, and always makes him angry.And most of the followers around him were carefully selected by him, all beauties, regardless of gender.

When the shopkeeper came in and said there was a big deal, Li Fei was not very happy and waved at him, "Didn't you say you didn't show up for a while.

"But young master, this person seems to have some background, saying that the selected silk can be sent to the palace as a tribute."

"Oh?" Li Fei put down the pen in his hand and asked slowly, "Isn't it a lie?"

"It's not like young master, that son and the young master he brought are either rich or noble." The shopkeeper knew his young master's disposition well, so he didn't forget to add another sentence, "That young master is extremely handsome, I have lived most of my life, and I have never seen such a beautiful man."

Li Feifei was immediately moved. He became curious and nodded, "Okay, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, he stood up and walked to the front hall.

Bai Yutang sat at the table drinking tea.

Bai Yutang held the silk in the box and looked at it, the silk was pretty good.Although Zhao Pu is a prince, he has no interest in clothing and jewelry at all. Gongsun also devotes himself to medicine, and Zhe Ying and the others take care of his life.

The two sisters, Feiying and Daiying, hugged the fourth son and told him about life in the palace when they were free. They also met a lot of silk and satin, and the silk and satin were indeed not bad.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and the fourth son looked up at Bai Yutang, and saw him holding a cup and looking down at the silk on the table, he didn't speak, as if he was thinking of something.

The fourth son rested his chin on one hand and looked at Bai Yutang, inexplicably feeling that Zhan Zhao is the only one who can be worthy of Bai Yutang in this world, and the two are a good match.

At this time, when the curtain was lifted, a tall, thin man walked in slowly before he saw anyone. He was wearing a long purple gown, embroidered with pines and cypresses, and covered with a brocade robe, which looked very luxurious. .

The fourth son blinked, is this the younger brother of the fat man who bullied the girl in the restaurant?It is unimaginable.

Li Feisheng's handsome appearance is extraordinary... Although he is not as good as Bai Yutang Zhanzhao, he is still considered a dragon and phoenix among people.

Before he came out, he was quite bored, but after seeing the two of them, he immediately felt pleasing to the eye, and his worries naturally disappeared.

The young man in white clothes in front of him is graceful and luxurious, with a bit of evil in his handsomeness, he is really a rare handsome man, and the little doll beside him is like the little fairy boy in the painting, with this appearance, he will definitely be a beauty in the future.

"I heard that a distinguished guest came to visit, so I've neglected you." Li was very polite, saluted Bai Yutang, and smiled at the fourth son.

Bai Yutang didn't come here for business, he just felt speechless in his heart - is this the way a dead brother should behave?Li's performance is extraordinary, and it feels happier than the death of an enemy!

"What's your name, son?"

Bai Yutang replied blandly, "My surname is Bai."

"Oh, Mr. Bai." Li Fei sat aside, "I heard that Mr. Bai wants to buy silk?"

Bai Yutang nodded, "Yes."

"I heard that the young master wants to choose silk for the palace?" Li asked very tentatively, the more he looked at Bai Yutang, the more he felt that something was wrong... This person is rebellious and rebellious, he doesn't look like a member of the government.

Bai Yutang frowned slightly, feeling that he was very annoying. He observed Li Chao and was indifferent to his brother's death, which showed that the relationship between the brothers was not good.In addition, the interest in Li Fei's eyes was what Bai Yutang disliked the most.Fortunately for him, he couldn't startle the snake with this case, otherwise, with Bai Yutang's temperament, he would have killed him long ago.

The fourth son was very obedient, he yawned from the side, and asked Bai Yutang, "Bai Bai, are you still okay?"

"Uh, young master is in a hurry to go back?" Seeing Bai Yutang's indifference, Li Fei asked the fourth young master.

The fourth son stretched out his hand and pointed at him, "If you have good silks and satins, take them out quickly, otherwise I have to leave, it's so slow."

Li Fei saw that the child was rather delicate and presumably very well-loved and well-known, so he asked, "Young master..."

Bai Yutang glanced at him, and said, "I just want to buy some good silk and satin for my sister-in-law's birthday. If you have it, take it out, if you don't have it, forget it."

"Hehe." Li nodded very much, "Don't be impatient, my lord. I do have a roll of ancient silk here, which is priceless."

Bai Yutang was taken aback for a moment, but he became interested. He had already said that he really came to buy a birthday gift for his sister-in-law, so he asked, "What ancient silk?"

"This is the treasure of my shop in the Li family town. It is placed in the old house for offering. If you want to see it, I can invite you out. Let's make an appointment tomorrow, how about it?" Bai Yutang asked, "How do I know about your ancient silk?" OK?"

"My lord, there is only one piece of this ancient silk in the world, and there is absolutely no second one. Let alone your sister-in-law, even if you give it to the current imperial concubine, you will keep it as a gift."

"Oh..." Bai Yutang's interest was aroused, and he nodded, "Then I want to see, when is tomorrow?"

"How about it, at noon tomorrow, I will book a seat in the private room on the second floor of Jiashan Building in the city, and wait for the young master to come."

Bai Yutang nodded happily, "Let's do it this way, I hope the shopkeeper isn't talking nonsense, making me happy for nothing."

"No, no, don't worry, my lord!"

Bai Yutang nodded, indicating that he didn't need to see him off, and stretched out his arms to hug the fourth son, then went out and walked back.

Li Fei sent him to the door, rubbed his chin, and found two attendants, telling him to follow Bai Yutang to see where this man was.

When Bai Yutang was walking back with his fourth son in his arms, there were almost no people on the street.

"Is it cold?" Seeing that the fourth son was not wearing a jacket, Bai Yutang remembered that he had just had typhoid fever, and that if he got sick, he would be very guilty.

"Not cold." Sitting on Bai Yutang's arm, the fourth son pinched a lock of his black hair and asked, "Bai Bai, is Aunt Lu's birthday coming?"

"Yeah, she always thinks of you, you go to the island to accompany her when you have time." Bai Yutang replied, paying attention to the movements of the stalkers behind him, a little wanting to laugh... This Li Wei is quite careful.

"Hmm..." The fourth son thought for a while, then asked in a low voice, "If Baibai and Miaomiao become a couple, will the family object?"

Bai Yutang was a little surprised that the fourth son asked such a question, and shook his head, "No one in the world can control me, Bai Yutang."

The fourth son laughed, and sure enough, in some respects, Bai Bai was very similar to Jiujiu.

While walking, Bai Yutang suddenly stopped, and turned to look at a big house in the distance, "Did you hear the sound?"

"Ah?" The fourth son held his breath and listened, then shook his head, "No."

Bai Yutang still followed the sound and walked to the distance, and saw a big house in front of him... a tall white lantern was hung on the top of the house, and a big "Dian" was written on the light.

"Li Mansion." The fourth son pointed to the plaque on the gate of the mansion.

A gust of wind blows... something rolled on the ground.Bai Yutang frowned... It was a burnt wind lantern with the word "Dian" faintly visible on it.

The two of them looked at the eaves of the Li Mansion. There were three lanterns in total, and one of them was vacant. How could one of the lanterns be blown down?

Just as he was wondering, he heard the sound of "cracking, thumping, thumping". Looking carefully, it turned out that the door of Li's mansion was not closed tightly, and it was shaking gently in the wind.

Bai Yutang instantly sensed a hint of ominousness, and took two steps forward, and suddenly... the door opened, and a tall figure flashed out from inside.

"Who is it!" Bai Yutang yelled, and the man suddenly turned his head to look at him.

The light at the door was miserable and white, so that the man's face could be seen clearly.

"Ah!" The fourth son yelled in shock—I saw a ghost!

I saw that man looked like a monster, ugly, with messy gray hair, white clothes like mourning clothes, what was even more frightening was his face, crooked, big nose and chin, sunken eye sockets, high cheekbones, pale face Just like the legendary Shura Yaksha.

His eyes were like eagles, staring at Bai Yutang and the fourth son in the distance... The blood stains on the snow-white clothes were extremely obvious, and the fingernails were long and full of blood.

With a "crash", two wings spread out behind his back.

Bai Yutang noticed that his back seemed to be slightly hunched, and when he looked closely at something moving, he immediately thought of what Zhao Pu said about the people in the northwestern region carrying falcons on their backs.

"Stop!" Seeing that he was about to run, Bai Yutang caught up with him by two steps, the man turned around abruptly, raised his hand, and a cold light flashed.

Bai Yutang was still holding his fourth son, so he hurriedly dodged away... There were a few ding ding sounds behind him, and a few oddly shaped darts were nailed to the ground.

The man jumped onto the roof.

Bai Yutang wanted to chase after him but was hesitant, he had a fourth son in his hand!

"Bai Bai, he ran away!" The fourth son was anxious, and patted Bai Yutang on the shoulder, "Hurry up!"

Bai Yutang jumped into the room, holding the fourth son with one hand, freed one hand, and flicked the scabbard... the silver knife pierced through the air with one blow.

The man couldn't dodge in time, he heard a "click", followed by a strange squawk.

The wing on the back of the man was chopped off in half by Bai Yutang, but he didn't see much pain, but his body slipped and fell off the roof.

"Pretending to be a ghost!" When Bai Yutang was flying and was about to fall, suddenly there was a sound of wind in the distance, Bai Yutang realized that someone was shooting an arrow... Immediately twisted his body in the air, protecting the fourth son and hiding aside.

Several crossbow bolts were nailed to the wall... Bai Yutang frowned, there seemed to be quite a few people in ambush.

And looking again, I saw a black figure rushing out of the alley at an extremely fast speed, helped the white man up to the roof beside him... Bai Yutang caught up to the roof again, and the two of them had disappeared.

Under the roof are small alleys.Those two seemed to have got into a dark alley, Bai Yutang was not familiar with the terrain here, so it was too late to chase after them.

"Run away." The fourth son also felt sorry.

Bai Yutang put the saber back into its sheath, and seeing the people following him couldn't bear it any longer, they rushed back to Li's residence.

As soon as the two of them entered... Bai Yutang and the fourth son felt a gust of cool wind... They both frowned, and a bloody smell came over the Li residence.

"Hmm." The fourth son covered his mouth and nose and looked at Bai Yutang—a lot of people died!

Sure enough, I heard those attendants screaming like crazy, and they ran out and shouted, "The monster has killed people! The monster has wiped out the Li family!"

Bai Yutang frowned, stretched out his hand...and picked up the part of the wing that was still bleeding out from the ground. If the white man he saw just now was the legendary hidden mountain monster, then the man in black who rescued him Who is it?

"This looks like the wings of a wild goose." The fourth son stared at the wings and tilted his head.

Bai Yutang asked, "Is that the person you saw that night?"

The fourth son thought for a while, "People can't tell the difference...but the wings I saw that night looked much better!"

Bai Yutang nodded, seeing white powder on his wings, he gave a low laugh, hugged his fourth son, and left first.

When I returned to the county government office, I saw that there was already movement in the government office.

Even more coincidentally, Li Gang was actually in the yamen. It is said that he came again at night, saying that he thought of an important clue to tell, and Liu Xie was asking him in the study.

At this moment, upon hearing the news that the Li family had been exterminated, Li Yuan immediately fainted, and there was a commotion in the yamen.

Zhan Zhao bumped into Bai Yutang and the fourth son at the gate of the yamen, "You two are really together, where did you go?"

Bai Yutang signaled to Zhan Zhao——Let's go in and talk!

Zhan Zhao immediately understood that something was wrong, so he followed him and the fourth son into the yamen.

Bai Yutang went into the study, returned the fourth son to Gongsun, closed the door, and put the wings on the table.

"Cut..." Zhao Pu pouted, "This is the wing of a wild duck!"

Bai Yutang smiled, and recounted what happened just now.

"The person we saw that night was definitely not these wings!" Gongsun shook his head again and again.

"That's right, those are the wings of an eagle or a vulture!" Zhao Pu said with certainty, "It's definitely not such an ugly wild duck wing! I think you can try grilling honey sauce wings."

Gongsun kicked him—be serious!

"Someone pretended to be the Yinshan monster and killed the whole family of Li's family?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "It stands to reason that Li Gang and his son are not here, so why kill the whole family?!"

"Why is there flour on it?" Gongsun wiped off the powder on his wings and smelled it, "It may be used to whiten his face."

"... Guess, did the Yinshan monster use this trick to frame the murders from the very beginning, or did they suddenly frame them because of Qian Dayou's death?" Zhan Zhao said thoughtfully, "Everything seems to have started from After Qian Dayou died, it became different."

At this time, Liu Xie sent someone to call, saying that he was going to the Li family at the scene of the murder to take a look.

Gongsun and Zhao Pu went with them. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't show up for the time being. They planned to take this opportunity to check on the homes of several other gentry quietly... Sure enough, there was some trick. Tonight must be a sleepless night.

Bai Yutang went to the courtyard to wash his face.

Just as Zhan Zhao changed into his night clothes and was about to go out, he was stopped by the fourth son.

"Why the fourth son?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.

The fourth son gave him a bag of candy, "I bought it for nothing, and said you like it too."

Zhan Zhao is embarrassed... In the past, he would occasionally eat a piece of candy from his little brother, isn't it because of fun, but Bai Yutang really has a heart, he even knows what he likes to eat.

The fourth son hooked his fingers at Zhan Zhao, "Meow, that Li just now was very special, his eyeballs almost fell out of his eyes."

Zhan Zhao's eyelids twitched lightly, "Really?"

"No!" The fourth son nodded.

……

After Bai Yutang washed his face, he went out with Zhan Zhao through the back door, and rushed to check the mansions of several other gentry, when he heard Zhan Zhao ask quietly, "You have an appointment with Li Chaoyue tomorrow?"

"En." Bai Yutang nodded.

"Where is it?" Zhan Zhao asked curiously.

Bai Yutang nodded, "The private room on the second floor of Jiashan Building will be at noon tomorrow."

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes... Li is very special!
