The large-scale auction of the Xingyue Auction House in Yunzhou City was held as scheduled.

There was an endless stream of people who came to participate in the auction, and even many foreigners also came.

After Ji Lang bid farewell to Xu Qin at the Inscription Masters Association, he got into the carriage and asked the driver to go directly to Xingyue Auction House.

In the carriage, Ji Lang used the fragmented time to practice.

When he counted the time and approached the auction house, the carriage stopped suddenly.

The coachman said anxiously outside: "Young master, the carriage is broken."

Sometimes it's just that bad luck.Ji Lang thought to himself, anyway, the auction house should not be too far away, just walk over there, so that we can catch up with the start of the auction.

However, when he got out of the carriage, he found that they had only walked halfway.

The coachman seemed to have noticed his expression, and said, "Young Master, there was some traffic on Changbai Street just now, so I took a detour."

Ji Lang's eyes sank, and he said lightly: "Go and fix the car, I'll go there by myself."

"Hey." The coachman replied, "Young master, you can take the Wuhua Lane, there is a shortcut."

Ji Lang nodded his head lightly, striding forward.When passing by the entrance of Wuhua Alley, he continued to walk forward without looking aside, as if he hadn't seen the small alley.

A man with sly eyebrows and mouse eyes quickly got into the depths of the alley, and said to the ambushing people there: "Ji Lang has passed by, go around and stop him."

Ji Lang really wanted to rush to the auction house impatiently. He had items he wanted to auction, but he didn't miss the abnormality of the coachman. Based on the principle of safety first, he tried his best to walk on the road with many people.

However, what should come will still come.

A few hooligans blocked Ji Lang's way.

"I recognize you." In Yuanshen's memory, these people were the punks in Yunzhou City.

"Master Ji, I haven't seen you for a few days, we miss you so much, why don't you sit with us for a while to catch up on the old days."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these people are just looking for faults.

Ji Lang smiled faintly, and threw a bag of silver coins to them, he didn't want to waste time with them here. "There's no need to reminisce about the past, you go to the bar for a drink."

The gangsters who blocked the way were shaken. They took money to block the way, but now the people who blocked the way gave more money.

The punks smiled and said, "Young Master Xie Ji, let's talk another day." After finishing speaking, they ran away without a trace.

Ji Lang continued to walk towards the auction with a normal face.

What puzzled him was that even if it was a large auction, it was just an auction. Why did someone insist on blocking him from going?

"Master."

"Master!"

"Well, Min Fan?"

Min Fan blinked, "What are you thinking? I called you twice before you answered."

Ji Lang didn't answer him, "Why didn't you go to the auction house with everyone?" Before he left this morning, Mrs. Ji said that they would go to the auction house together first, and told him not to go too late.

Min Fan smiled awkwardly, "I'm not interested, so I won't join in the fun." Just to go in and watch, each person needs to pay two low-grade spirit stones, and Min Fan is embarrassed to ask the Ji family to pay for him.

"That's it, then I'll go there first." Ji Lang just wanted to rush to the auction house as soon as possible, and his intuition told him that something was going to happen.

Min Fan looked at the back of him leaving in a hurry, scratched his head, and then continued to look for a job along the street.

After Ji Lang arrived at the auction house, he first asked the guy he knew, "Have my parents come?"

"Not yet, the auction is about to start." The waiter was also a little puzzled, "Is there something that Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji are delaying?"

Ji Lang couldn't help frowning, turned around and ran towards Ji's mansion.

Min Fan, who was looking for a job, saw Ji Lang running over in a hurry, hesitated for a moment, and then chased after him.

On the way, Ji Lang caught a glimpse of the wood fragments and bloodstains on the side of the road, and couldn't help feeling palpitations.

Someone who knew Ji Lang said to him: "Young Master Ji, the Ji family's carriage overturned just now, and both Master Ji and Mrs. Ji were injured."

Min Fan chased after him just in time to hear this, and said anxiously: "Young Master, let's go back quickly."

Ji Lang nodded, and continued to run home, out of breath.

"Father! Mother!"

"Xiao Lang."

Mrs. Ji was sitting by the bed, with her left hand wrapped in a layer of gauze.Master Ji was lying on the bed with gauze wrapped around his arms and legs.

"Mother," Ji Lang turned pale, looked at Mrs. Ji's gauze-wrapped hands, and then set his eyes on Mr. Ji, "Father, what did the doctor say?"

Master Ji put on a smile on his face and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Lang, it's just a few scratches, it's not a big deal, the doctor said he'll be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Mrs. Ji also said: "Yes, don't worry. Xiao Lang, isn't there something you want to buy at the auction? Go to the auction."

"Dad and mother are injured, how can I still think about the things at the auction?"

Mrs. Ji sighed softly, motioned Ji Lang to bring his head closer, then raised her uninjured hand to touch his head.

The servant girl came over and said, "Master, madam, Master Min is outside the house and wants to come in and visit."

Mrs. Ji said, "Let him come in."

Min Fan greeted him after entering the room, and asked with concern: "Master Ji and Mrs. Ji's injuries, are they serious?"

Mrs. Ji smiled lovingly and said, "It's not serious, I'm worrying you too."

Ji Lang walked out silently.

Master Ji caught a glimpse of Ji Lang's clenched fist hanging by his side, he couldn't help worrying and anxiously said: "Xiao Fan, go and see what Xiao Lang is doing for us."

"Okay." Min Fan was slightly taken aback, then nodded and chased him out.

Ji Lang found the accompanying servants and asked them one by one what happened.

At that time, only Master Ji and Mrs. Ji were sitting in the carriage. Mrs. Side did not go with her because of illness, and Ji Lin rode beside her.

The coachman was also injured, and he said very frightenedly: "Young master, the horse suddenly went berserk, the cart hit the wall, and both master and madam were injured."

"Where are the horses and the wrecked cart?"

"Second Young Master was dealt with."

Ji Lang couldn't help frowning, and turned to ask the servants in charge of the stables.

The servants repeatedly assured: "Eldest young master, the villain has taken good care of the horse, the horse has not been eaten badly, nor is it sick, so it shouldn't suddenly go mad."

Ji Lang thought to himself: Ji Lin is the most suspicious in this matter, but why did he do this?What's in it for him?

Ji Lang left the house in a hurry to find those gangsters. He thought that the one who let the gangsters block his way and the one who injured his parents should be the same person.

Min Fan followed behind him step by step, didn't say much, just watched what he was doing.

Seeing him leaving the mansion, Ji Lang couldn't help but said, "You've been following me since just now, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Master Ji let me see what you do." Min Fan told the truth with a worried look on his face. "You don't look very well, are you okay?"

Ji Lang took a deep breath, "Go back and tell my father, I'll go find my friends to catch up."

Min Fan hesitated, "But Master Ji said..."

"It's okay, just now you also saw that I asked my servants to ask a question. It was an accident that my parents were injured. No one expected that the horse would suddenly go mad."

Min Fan pursed his lips slightly, but did not make a sound.

Ji Lang said: "I'm going to find a friend, it's inconvenient for you to follow me."

Min Fan stared at him intently for a few seconds, and then said, "Then I'll go back first."

"Ah."

Ji Lang watched him turn and leave, and then quickened his pace to find those gangsters.

In the tavern, the punks drank happily, punching while drinking, making a lot of noise.

The shopkeeper and the buddy frowned, as if they wanted to drive them away but were afraid of getting into trouble, the loss outweighed the gain.

Ji Lang walked towards the little gangster, "Are you still awake?"

"Hey, Young Master Ji, you want to drink too? Let's go together."

"If you can recognize me, it means you are still awake."

"Young Master Ji, what advice do you have?" The leading gangster stood up and hooked Ji Lang's shoulders, and the strong smell of alcohol hit him instantly.

Ji Lang frowned imperceptibly, "Tell me who ordered you to block my way today, how much that person gave you, and I will give you double."

The little gangster was stunned, sat down again, hiccupped, and said, "Master Ji, we are also moral."

Others echoed: "Yes, be moral."

Ji Lang chuckled, took out a porcelain bottle from his bag and put it on the table, "This is the truth pill I bought from a Danxiu."

The little gangster opened it and saw that there was nothing in it, it was an empty bottle.

Ji Lang raised his eyebrows, "Twice, let's talk."

There is no such thing as truth Dan, and Ji Lang's intention in doing this is to give them an excuse.In this way, it is not considered that they intentionally leaked the employer's information, but were fed the so-called truth pill.

The little gangster laughed louder and louder, "Interesting."

Ji Lang was not in a hurry, he just stood there and waited for their reply.

"Young Master Ji, the person looking for us is a stranger, but we followed him secretly and saw him enter the back door of Ji Mansion."

Ji Lang dropped a small bag of gold and silver coins and walked out of the tavern.

Outside the tavern, Min Fan looked at him worriedly.

When the four eyes met, Ji Lang came back to his senses and asked, "Why are you here?"

Min Fan didn't answer but instead asked: "Didn't you mean to reminisce with your friends? Those people are the young master's friends?"

Ji Lang said without changing his face: "Yes."

Min Fan frowned slightly. After he learned to practice, his hearing became better, and he heard their conversation outside.

Ji Lang strode back home, and Min Fan followed in his footsteps.

In front of Ji Lang, Min Fan told Master Ji and Mrs. Ji everything he saw and heard.

Master Ji sighed softly: "Xiao Lang, this is just an accident, don't take it to heart."

"Okay." Ji Lang responded.

But how could you not care?

He really couldn't figure it out, who would benefit from hurting his parents a little bit?Is it just to prevent them from going to the auction?

In the evening, news came from shopkeepers of several shops in neighboring towns that the goods in the shops were either robbed or stolen.

Master Ji was so anxious that he wanted to go to the neighboring town in person, but Ji Lang suddenly remembered that in the original plot, Master Ji was killed by robbers on the way out to discuss business, and tried his best to persuade Master Ji not to go in person.

Master Ji said worriedly: "I'm not worried about the loss this time, but our business in the neighboring town has finally improved. It is very likely that other shops in the neighboring town deliberately targeted our shop. I have to go and see for myself. look."

"Father, I'll go for you." Ji Lang volunteered.

Master Ji hesitated, "Xiao Lang, I'm worried that you haven't dealt with business matters yet."

"Father, you can find someone to help me." Ji Lang said, and gave Mrs. Ji a look asking for help.

Mrs. Ji smiled slightly and said, "Master, since Xiao Lang wants to help, let him go."

Master Ji pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement, and instructed Ji Lang carefully.
