Of course, in the end it was impossible to do what Qingzhi wanted. Both Fang Lansheng and Fu Yanxin persuaded each other to join Qingzhi, while they and Pingyun went to the chamber of commerce.In the end, unable to persuade each other, Ping Yun stepped forward and waved: "My lord, you and Fu Du will go to the Chamber of Commerce together, and your subordinates will go with Lord Hou!"

The two people in front of them both bent their eyes and looked at each other, one cupped their hands and the other clasped their fists and said, "That's very good."

Qingzhihe followed Pingyun with his hands behind his back, without any passion at all. Looking at the person walking swiftly in front of him, he was so angry that he raised his feet and kicked stones while walking, unexpectedly, he used so much force He even kicked the stone flying and hit Pingyun's ass.

Seeing this, he laughed loudly, Ping Yun was outraged but didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only continue walking with his head sullen.

Although the Ning family has been in decline this year, it was once glorious and has a good reputation among the people. They stopped at a roadside stall to buy something, and asked where the Ning Mansion was.

It's just that when the man heard that Qingzhi and the others were going to Ningfu to find someone, it seemed like he had seen a ghost. If Qingzhi hadn't been generous and didn't give change after buying snacks, the hawker would not have kindly reminded him.

"This young master looks unfamiliar, could it be that this is the first time you have come to Yangzhou City?" Seeing Qingzhi nodded, the peddler boldly continued: "I see that young master is an honest person to tell you the truth, I don't know Does the young master have any friendship with anyone in the Ning Mansion? Do you know that the Ning Mansion has long since fallen and the monkeys have scattered!"

Qingzhi naturally understood, but he still pretended to be ignorant and said, "What do you mean, little brother? I was an old friend with Ning Liang, son of the Ning family. I haven't seen him for a few years. I wanted to visit Yangzhou when I was passing by. I don’t know what happened to the tree falling and the monkeys scattered in the little brother’s mouth? Isn’t this Ning family Jianghuai General Merchant?”

"Hey! You really don't know, my lord. Fortunately, you met me!" The peddler looked relieved, "Several strange things happened to the Ning family a year ago, one of which was that the master of the Ning family went crazy and turned into a He turned into a werewolf and bit off Mr. Ning's arm! After that, no one knew his whereabouts, and even the government couldn't find out what happened! Soon after that incident, Mr. Ning also disappeared! This Ning With the loss of the two heads of the family, the mansion naturally fell into a slump. The servants took away all that the Ning family could take away. It was in a bleak state! Although the position of the General Merchant is still there, the mansion is already in a state of depression. I am afraid that no one has lived in it for a long time. !"

Qingzhi and Pingyun looked at each other, got up and thanked the peddler, and walked on the road to Ningfu.

Sure enough, he turned around and entered a cold street, Qing Zhizheng doubted that this small street is also adjacent to the busy city, how could it be so desolate?When I looked up, I saw a high vermilion wall stretching for several feet.

It turned out that the Ning Mansion had arrived.

"This mansion is so big..." Qingzhi sighed. If it was in the past, there must be a crowd at the entrance of the mansion. It doesn't look like it is now. Because of the fear of the legend of the Ning Mansion, no vendor dared to set up his stall on this bustling main street. put it here.

Going up the steps at the door, looking up, you can see the two characters written in cursive script: Ning Mansion just above the vermilion door.

"This Ning Mansion is really magnificent. I think it must have been brilliant before..." Ping Yun stepped forward and knocked on the doorknob, but no one came to answer the door after a while. The two looked at each other for a long time, Qing Zhidao "Isn't it true that as the peddler said, none of the domestic servants were left?"

This is not good, since there is no one in Ruoning Mansion, it is difficult to ask about the situation.

Ping Yun stepped forward and knocked on the door again, unexpectedly, with a little force, the door was pushed open a crack.

The two looked at each other in blank dismay. With decades of experience in watching horror movies, Qingzhi would never step into this Ningfu, but now, in order to find out the truth, he couldn't care less, so he raised his head to Pingyun. Said: "You go ahead."

Ping Yun just crossed the threshold with one foot, looked around for no serious problems, and called Qing Zhi to follow him in.Qingzhi took a few deep breaths, and just as he lifted his foot into the mansion, a burst of cold air hit his forehead, he knelt down with his head in his arms and shouted for help from Ping Yun.

Sure enough, there was a burst of punching and kicking, and finally he only heard two bangs and bangs of someone falling to the ground before he opened his fingers and looked—fortunately, Pingyun landed in the courtyard smoothly, and the person who fell in front of him was a An old man with gray hair and a stick in his hands.

"Get out, get out, there is an old man here, you don't want to take away the things of the Ning Mansion! You bastards, the master and the master treat everyone well on weekdays, but I didn't expect that when something happened, everyone would become a white-eyed wolf. I want to come to the house to steal something and sell it!"

Qingzhi understood, waved his hand to let Pingyun push him away, and took a few steps forward: "Old man, old man, please don't get excited, you are a servant in the house... Ouch!" Qingzhi covered his eyes and took a few steps back, seeing The old man trembled with his right hand, and said viciously: "Don't look at the old man, he is more than enough to deal with you!"

"Father, daddy...! Drink up, the demons are gone!" Just before Qingzhi was speechless, another roar was heard from the room, and then two young men sprang out, each holding a Guandi sword, dancing and jumping in front of the old man , to block Qingzhi, and said: "Who are you?"

Feeling the robe under his feet being grabbed by someone, he looked down and saw a baby who was only three or four years old holding on to his trouser legs, and said in a childish voice, "Don't bully my grandpa!"

"They... they don't know if they came to grab something—" The old man who had swollen Qingzhi's eye was really weak and leaned on his son at this moment, and he didn't have the courage to attack Qingzhi just now.Those two young men saw that they dared to bully my father, so naturally they came to Qingzhi with their swords.

"Wait a minute, I'm not a bad person, I know your young master Ning Liang, look at this!" Qingzhi was startled, and panickedly took out a jade plaque from his chest and pushed it to the front: "Do you recognize this jade token?" , does it belong to your young master!"

"Big dog and two dogs, wait a minute!" Just as the long knife was about to hit Qing Zhi's face, the old man stopped him, and he got up from the ground tremblingly, grabbed Qing Zhi's hand and handed it to him. The jade pendant in front of him, the old man shouted to the sky with tears in his eyes: "My lord! This is the jade pendant that the young master brought up since he was a child!" After that, he hugged the jade pendant tightly as if he saw some treasure. In his arms, Fangfo is not holding a piece of jade like this, but rather Ningliang. "The old man just said that the young master is still alive! God has eyes! The young master is still alive!"

Fortunately, before leaving, Lan Sheng was extra careful, and asked Ning Liang if there was a token on his body that could be identified by people. He touched it and finally took out the jade pendant from his arms.Thanks to this piece of jade, Ning Bo managed to get his two sons to put away their big swords. Although Qingzhi was very dissatisfied with Pingyun's behavior of not rushing out to protect the lord immediately, this time he was not arguing with him. opportunity.Just before he explained that they knew Ning Liang, Ning Bo's eyes were red again.

A group of people followed Ning Bo to the back room, and they couldn't help sighing, "What are you still guarding in this dilapidated room?"

"Hush——" Big Dog got closer, and reminded Qingzhi to speak softly: "Father hates to hear others say that the mansion is wrong. The mansion suffered great changes that day. After the master and the young master disappeared together, the servants in the mansion People ran cleanly, and everything that could be easily fished out was taken away. Even the ancestral jade plaques were almost about to be taken away. If Dad hadn't held a long knife to block the door of the room, the incense in the house might have been destroyed. It's going to be broken!"

Qing Zhi clicked his tongue, this Ning Bo's deeds are really a hero, and he can catch up with the loyal dog Hachiko in tears when making a movie.

Er Gou rubbed his face and said, "Father is quite old, and he bought his life for the Ning Mansion. Although it was unjust, but the whereabouts of the master and the young master are unknown, and it is not an option to keep guarding the house. My elder brother and I advise He, but he just didn't listen, saying that the master and the young master were framed by others, and one day the master and the young master will come back! It's just that this guarding lasted for more than a year! There are a few mouths in the family to eat, but no one can go out to work , father is afraid that someone will break in while everyone in the family, let us stay here all the time, and go to the next door neighbor's house every day to beg for leftovers and eat leftovers..."

Qingzhi not only shook his head and sighed, it's no wonder that the milk doll looked pale just now, and a discerning eye could see that he was malnourished.

Qingzhi took out from his bosom, only took out a few sugar lotus seeds for a long time, teased the milk doll who was being held by the big dog, and was about to put one into his mouth, but was slapped away by Ning Bo.

Qingzhi knew that he was still wary of him, so he didn't want to say much. Since ancient times, loyal officials have been more cautious, so they silently withdrew their hands.

After entering the house, Ergou couldn't find a complete chair to sit on. Ergou said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, the chairs in the house were smashed last year, and all the chairs that were moved away were taken away." Let's go, you two... sit down as you please?"

Ping Yun said no, and stood aside, but Qingzhi looked left and right, and finally patted the ponytail on the ground, and sat down.

"I don't know what this young master's name is?" Ning Bo finally stopped his tears from the jade pendant, turned his head to look at Qing Zhi, and just saw his blue right eye, he was quite uncomfortable, and called the big dog to get it Apply the medicinal oil to Qing Zhi, and said: "Why do you two have my young master's jade pendant? What's the matter with the young master saying that he met the young master?" I don't know if I was in a hurry along the way, and now I asked A bunch of questions.

"My surname is Liu." Qing Zhi rubbed his right eye, he never had to draft a lie.Turning his head to look at Pingyun beside him, he showed a smirk: "This is my follower Pingyun."

"Since Mr. Liu is acquainted with my young master and has my young master's jade pendant on his body, he must know where my young master is now?" Ning Bo's eyes lit up little stars, and he blinked at Qing Zhi.
