"By the way, that little thief doesn't have any rules to follow in killing. He just leaves a peach blossom note at night, and the person who receives the letter will die at night the next day...the death is strange, with an angry face..."

The storyteller on the stage slapped the gavel and said loudly.

Everyone in the audience listened attentively.

"Of course such a big case alarmed the government. The government sent many people to investigate, but none of them had any clue..."

Uncle Liu at the side turned his head to Song Ting and Xu Yu when he heard this, and said, "Oh, you've heard about it too, right? Just what happened in the city in the past few days."

The storyteller was talking about what happened in the last few days.

Song Ting shook his head, his eyes turned from the storyteller on the stage to Uncle Liu.

Seeing this, Uncle Liu slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "You don't know? I have to explain this to you..."

"I heard that a person from the rivers and lakes came to the capital recently. Jian, no matter how prepared they are, they will die in their own room the next night."

"And I heard that the death was extremely tragic. No, I heard that there is a young master of the Ye family on Qing'an Lane, and he received this peach blossom note last night."

"Hey, my family lives on the side of Qing'an Lane. My mother-in-law was talking about it early in the morning. It made people uncomfortable, so I came to the teahouse to hide."

Song Ting glanced at Uncle Liu when he heard that, Qing'an Lane is a place where rich people live, and the people who live there are either rich or noble.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Liu lived on that side.

Uncle Liu seemed to know what he was thinking, he chuckled: "The old man started his business in his early years, and accumulated a lot of money in his early years, but now he is too old to do it anymore, so he entrusted my son with the management of the shop at home, and I also Have fun."

Song Ting laughed, his black pupils narrowed slightly: "Then, can Uncle Liu tell us the exact location of the Ye family?"

Uncle Liu glanced at Song Ting and Xu Yu suspiciously, and dissuaded him: "You young people just like to play with excitement, but you have to do what you can according to your own situation, don't lose your life for a moment of curiosity."

Xu Yu smiled and said, "Do you think Brother Song and I are that kind of people? We're just curious."

Uncle Liu then said: "Then Ye's family lives in the innermost part of Qing'an Lane. His family is a well-known rich man nearby. The mansion is quite impressive, and I heard that their family has some relationship with the royal family. Business is also doing smoothly.”

"Then how is this Mr. Ye?" Song Ting stopped knocking the melon seeds, put down a handful of melon seeds in his hand, and listened attentively to Uncle Liu: "There are so many rich and noble families, why is he the one who is being targeted?"

Uncle Liu sighed: "Young master Ye, I heard that he is a good-looking person, but he has a bad temper, and he does a lot of sneaky things, which has offended many people. If it weren't for the protection of his family, he would still He must not be killed by those he has offended."

"And he's not only bad-tempered, he's also ignorant, he stays in Huajie and Liuxiang all day long, tsk tsk... If I have such a son, I won't die of anger."

"He being targeted can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people."

Song Ting frowned, this incident is a bit weird, but I don't know if it was really done by people from the Jianghu or someone else...

Thinking of this, Song Ting quickly said to Uncle Liu: "Uncle Liu, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

Uncle Liu was taken aback for a moment, and then waved his hand: "Go, listen to my advice, this young man must find something to do for himself, otherwise he won't have any money, and he won't even have a wife in the future..."

Song Ting and Xu Yu paused when they got up, did Uncle Liu regard them as unemployed vagrants who come here every day with nothing to do? !

The two suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.It was hard to explain, so I had no choice but to leave with Uncle Liu's gratified gaze.

When the two walked to the street, Xu Yan couldn't help looking at Song Ting: "Brother Song, do we really look so down and out?"

Song Ting glanced at himself and Xu Yu. The two of them usually don't pay attention to their clothes, and in order to cover up their ghostly aura, they wear clothes worn by others. Some clothes have been mended and mended several times. They also don't recommend Patch, and sometimes they will exchange clothes.

Wearing old clothes, staying in teahouses every day, doing nothing, isn't that just a vagrant in the eyes of others?

Song Ting sighed: "Forget it, let's go to Qing'an Lane first."

Xu Yu nodded depressedly, and they followed the guidance of passers-by to Qing'an Lane.

Qing'an Lane is very bustling, and there are rich families nearby. Song Ting and Xu Yu walked along the road into the depths of the alley.

After searching for a while, I finally found Yefu. I saw a few guards standing beside the vermilion gate. There were two majestic stone lions at the gate. There was a plaque on the gate with the word Yefu written on it. Like a swimming dragon, it is majestic.

The two found a hidden place to hide and observed for a while. Xu Yu turned to Song Ting and asked, "Brother Song, how did we get in?"

Song Ting frowned as he looked at the heavily guarded mansion.

This place should be for the defense of that Jianghu person. There are many guards at the door, and the guards inside may be even stricter.

"It's not easy to go inside, so let's wait outside." Song Ting said, blocking the sun from the poison column with his hand.

Xu Yu also looked at the guards standing at the door. Those guards were tall and mighty with muscles, and their feet were very stable. They looked like they were trainers.

He nodded, it looked really difficult to get in here.

The two waited in the corner for a while.

In the distance, a young man came on a horseback. The young man was dressed luxuriously and was handsome, but with a naughty smile on his face, he looked out of shape.

He rode his horse to the gate, got off his horse, and the guards at the gate caught up with him immediately when they saw him.

Taking the whip in his hand, he bowed his head and respectfully said: "Master, madam and master told you early in the morning not to go out all day today, just stay in the mansion, if you let them know that you went out secretly, I'm afraid you will be punished." small."

The boy waved his hand casually, and said lazily: "Didn't I just go out because of something? Now that I'm back, I will definitely stay in the mansion obediently from now on."

The boy thought for a while and then showed doubts: "Is that peach blossom paper really so bizarre?"

The guard smiled: "Recently, this incident has spread so miraculously that even the rumor that the little thief is a ghost has come out, but don't worry, young master, who is in our house? As long as the little thief dares to come, he will surely Let him walk around without eating!"

The boy casually smiled: "The safety of the young master depends on you guys."

The guard gladly agreed.

There was no one else around, so Song Ting and Xu Yu could clearly hear their voices.

When they heard these words, they looked at each other.

It seems that the young man is the young master of the Ye family who received the peach blossom note.
