The little girl jumped down from the stairs and saw Huamanlou sadly staring at the four people on the ground, and there was a girl standing beside her, holding a bag of roasted chestnuts with sugar, and she burst into tears.

His gaze turned to the body of an old man lying down, a couple, and a little girl who was smaller than the girl holding fried chestnuts with sugar.

dead.

Ling Dang only glanced at it before indifferently turning his attention away, his eyes stopped on the sugar-fried chestnuts that the girl was holding.

She has seen a lot of dead people, there is nothing to see, but this person...

"Hey, do you know what you're holding is poisonous?"

The cloth bag fell down, and the candied chestnuts were scattered all over the floor.

The girl took a step back and muttered to herself: "I don't know, I don't like fried chestnuts in sugar. By the way, it's her, it must be her!"

The five poisonous beasts flapped their wings, approached the fried chestnuts, picked up one and flew back.

"Lingyin is so good." Bell patted the head of the five poisonous beasts, squeezed open the chestnut shell, and threw the chestnut meat into his mouth.

Hua Manlou: "Senior Sister!"

The little girl looked over indifferently: "It's okay, this poison, it won't kill me."

As soon as it touched her hand, it was already refined by her Five Poison Pearl.

"The taste has not been damaged by the poison. He is a veteran of poisoning. The temperature is hot just out of the pot. You just bought it?" Ling Dang reminded Hua Manlou, "I think the murderer is likely to be selling sugar-fried chestnuts. You now Let’s go, maybe we can still find someone in the city.”

"Okay, thank you, Senior Sister."

Hua Manlou gently closed the eyes of several people, and turned his head to look at the little girl seriously: "I will catch the murderer and bring him to justice. Do you know what he looks like?"

"No..." the little girl sobbed, "It was the sugar-fried chestnuts my dad bought last night. He brought them back from outside, but my sister was sick last night, so my parents and grandma were not in the mood to eat it. My sister was much better just now. , She said that she would also let Kong Rong make pears, pour out the fried chestnuts and share them with my parents and grandma. I don't like fried chestnuts, so I didn't ask for them. My parents did the right thing to coax my sister, saying They were very happy, so they ate the chestnuts. The chestnuts were already cold before eating, and Auntie steamed them again."

She spoke up and down.

"Guli Guli."

The five poisonous beasts patted her on the back lightly.

Fly back again and stare pitifully at Bell with wide eyes open.

Breathe...

two breaths...

three breaths...

"Well, you are cute, you are reasonable, and I happen to be idle too."

The bell turned the judge's pen around and looked at the girl, "Report to the judge or be buried first?"

"Report, report to the official?" The girl's family runs an escort agency, and she is considered half a Jianghu person, and her thinking tends to be "Jianghu affairs, Jianghu is over".

What's more... "Reporting to the official... is it useful?"

How many criminals in the Jianghu were killed by their fellow Jianghu, the government will only issue arrest warrants, and then let them go--or, there is no way to control them.

"Tsk, the government on your side is really useless."

Ling Dang walked out the door and made a decision on his own: "Qitong, I'll go and look through their files. People like this who kill people with sugar-fried chestnuts shouldn't be a whim."

The girl bit her lower lip, and asked Hua Manlou in a timid tone: "Doctor Hua, did I offend Miss Sister?"

Hua Manlou glanced at the back under the Zhengyang that didn't even pause, and said in a calm tone: "No, Senior Sister is not unhappy."

How can an insignificant person deserve to cause her negative emotions? This is the indifference named Bell that Hua Manlou has clearly understood after living with his little senior sister for a period of time.

"She just... went to help you look up the murderer who covered your parents."

The gentle flower god chose the friendly word "help".

"Come on, let's go first..."

After a pause, he couldn't bear to spit out what was cruel but necessary for the little girl.

"Purchase the coffin."

"Grandma Xiong, a native of the rivers and lakes, came out on the night of the full moon to sell poisonous chestnuts in candied sugar. She was not caught. Her appearance is unknown, but she is suspected to be a woman. A reward of one thousand taels of silver is offered."

Bell shook the dossier, "Is that all?"

The master smiled apologetically: "Woman, the victims are all dead, only a few people survived, and even fewer of them reported the crime, so naturally... there is nothing to say..."

"The government on your side is really useless." Ling Dang laughed honestly.

"Okay, I won't embarrass you anymore. Remember to be ready."

Master: "What are you ready for?"

"1000 taels."

Bell threw the file back and walked towards the door.

"Tomorrow night at the latest, I will send Grandma Xiong to the government."

The master hurriedly hugged the file and rolled his eyes at the bell.

If it were really that easy, Grandma Xiong would have been sent here by the Jianghu people to receive bonuses 800 years ago.

"Oh, right."

When Ling Dang turned his head, the master rolled his eyes halfway, his eyelids retracted twitching, and his eyes suddenly became dark.

Bell: "Are your eyes cramped?"

The master hurriedly said: "Yes, yes..."

With a flattering face: "What other orders do you have for the heroine?"

"I don't need the money from you, so just convert it into 1000 taels of fireworks for me."

"1000 taels of fireworks?"

"something wrong?"

"No... no problem..."

Master only felt his scalp go numb.

If 1000 Liangquan is replaced by fireworks, you have to buy out the fireworks in several cities.

"Of course, I'm not a troublemaker. One month is enough for you to go back and forth from other towns. When I come over a month later, I must see my salary, otherwise..." With the tip of the knife, a long cut was made on the wooden door. mouth.

Master bit the tip of his tongue, fixed his eyes on the sharp tip of the knife, "I will definitely buy it for you!"

"Do you know where Grandma Xiong is?"

Hua Manlou squatted in the backyard, with his sleeves rolled up, and the porcelain bowl was turned over, causing water to splash.

Ling Dang pretended to pinch her fingers, "I calculated with my fingers, I have a date with her tonight. On the head of the willow on the moon, we have an appointment after dusk."

"You worshiped the Taoist priest of Chunyang as the master of Jianghu?"

The little girl shook her head, the bell on her hair was crisp and sweet, "I am very talented, I am self-taught!"

Glancing at Huamanlou: "You can also wash dishes."

Hua Manlou laughed, "Washing the dishes is such a trivial matter, since I plan to move out from home, I naturally have to learn it."

"You can hire a servant."

"One small building, one person, one bowl, two or three sets of clothes, I am enough." Hua Manlou wiped the bowl dry with a dish towel. Who would have thought that this was the youngest son of the richest man in Jiangnan, honey? Heart and eyeballs raised in jars.

Hua Manlou's face was as usual with a light smile of satisfaction: "Wake up early in the morning, watch the well water pouring into the copper basin, rinse your mouth with Chinese medicine decoction, and Aunt Wang's fried buns come, go buy seven or eight, sit and listen Birds singing and leaves rustling. Pruning Qiongzhi by myself, sniffing the fragrance carefully, picking up medicinal materials, grinding medicinal powder. I don’t want to go to the restaurant at night, I set up the stove by myself, watch the fireworks rise, and after the meal, I call the well water to remove the stains bit by bit... …There is no artistic conception when slaves do the work.”

Plain and simple, but it is what Huamanlou likes.

Ling Dang lost interest: "Are you planning to start retirement decades earlier?"

Hua ManLou: "Why not?"

Ling Dang looked at him because he had lost his temper for more than ten years when he could not see. Even if he is cured now, he is still like a lake of mirrors, unable to stir up turbulent waves.

"What did you cook?" The little girl's topic was like her own, jumping up and down.

"I cooked a little porridge for the child, she had already fallen asleep after drinking a bowl of porridge."

"Then your medicine hall..."

"Let's rest for a few days, wait for the coffin to be fixed, and then open the door after they are buried."

"It's going to be closed anyway, why don't we go out to play for two days after catching Grandma Xiong? Before you went to Datang, you only cared about curing your eyes and learning the arts of flowers and flowers. You haven't seen the rivers and mountains of Datang well, it's so beautiful. !"

Huamanlou has a kind heart, but she doesn't ignore the joy and anger of those close to her for the sadness of outsiders.The little girl said it in front of him, not in front of a girl who had just lost a loved one, there was nothing wrong with it.

——Is it necessary to force Ling Dang to empathize with others?

"Okay." He replied with a smile.

Ask again: "Where is your date with her?"

After asking this question, Hua Manlou and his little senior sister squatted beside the mountain road outside the city.

The little senior sister pointed at the intersection, as if talking nonsense: "Here, at dusk, Grandma Xiong and I will meet there."

Hua Manlou looked up at the sky, "It's still far away from dusk."

The little girl took out seven or eight lotus seeds peeled from the lotus pod, and threw them towards the intersection, "Watch me set up a maze, and wait for her to send me in."

"Magic array?" No matter how you look at it, Hua Manlou looks like a child messing around, throwing random patterns on the ground.

"A friend of mine taught me this one. This one is just the fur of his formation. His formation is so magical that peach trees are used to form the formation, and the peach blossoms will never fall." Bell pointed at the lotus seeds, "Try it?"

Huamanlou went to try it.

After walking into the unit surrounded by Lianzi, it was as if a ghost hit a wall. It was clearly a distance that could be jumped in a few steps, but no matter how much I lifted my feet, I couldn't finish it.

With a flick of the bell, a lotus seed landed in the southwest, and the hazy feeling in the field of vision instantly disappeared like clouds and fog. Hua Manlou lifted his foot again and walked to the bell without any hindrance.

"How is my formation?"

The little girl's nose is going to go up to the sky.

"It's amazing." Hua Manlou praised sincerely, "It's as if the world is so close."

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just a way to confuse perception. You think you are lifting your feet, but you are not moving."

Another lotus seed was thrown to the northeast, and the formation was restarted.

"Except Grandma Xiong, no one will take this road today, so I'm not afraid of accidental injury."

Hua Manlou thought she meant that this road was seldom traveled, "There is always a chance, what if someone happens to take this road?"

Bell wrinkled his nose, used his thoughts to connect with the space where Pet lived, and released the five poisonous beasts.

"Lingyin?" Hua Manlou recognized it as the senior sister's pet, "Senior sister, you let it out because..."

Caressing Lingyin's thin and soft wings, Bell introduced to him: "Lingyin is a fairy beast and five poisonous beasts, which can read minds. When someone comes, I will go up and ask if that person is Grandma Xiong. She knocked over."
