There are two famous heroes in Luoyang City.

One is Lu Fengxian, the iron-faced Wenhou of Xicheng.One is Ouyang Xi, a Mengchang from the Central Plains in Dongcheng.Both of them are well-known figures in Luoyang City.Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Qi Qingfeng and the others.As soon as they entered Luoyang City, they went straight to the Luoyang branch of Langsiji.

The langciji in Luoyang City is much more respectable than the langciji in Qinyang City.The so-called more decent means that the facade is clean, without any spider webs and dirty mottled stains.The business of Langsiji in Luoyang City has always been better than other stores that also do silk business, and the traffic inside and outside here is quite considerable.

As soon as my feet stepped over the threshold, the guys in the store immediately greeted me. "Hey, what does this young man want to see? We have all kinds of good fabrics in our store. Look..."

Raising his hand to interrupt the clerk's enthusiasm, Qi Qingfeng said indifferently: "Where's shopkeeper Lin?" There are five clerks at the front of Langciji who greet the guests, including the shopkeeper, there should be six.At this time, the five guys were busy greeting the customers coming and going in the store, only the shopkeeper was not there.

Seeing that Qi Qingfeng came to look for his shopkeeper, the clerk was startled, and hurriedly replied: "Shopkeeper Lin is ordering new supplies in the warehouse behind."

Qi Qingfeng nodded and said, "Lead the way."

"Huh?" The man was stunned this time.He had never met Qi Qingfeng, so he didn't know Qi Qingfeng's background.As soon as Qi Qingfeng came, he asked him to take him to find the shopkeeper, which didn't seem like a good thing.But even so, he didn't dare to neglect Qi Qingfeng. As a buddy, he still had the eyesight he should have. A person with Qi Qingfeng's bearing is not an ordinary person no matter what.

"Lead the way." Two words, absolutely no more words.

The two words of faintness carry no doubt, the buddy swallowed his saliva, and didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he could only nod and lead Qi Qingfeng and the others back.There is a courtyard behind the store, and the left side of the courtyard is connected to a promenade. At the end of the promenade, there is a small courtyard, which is the kitchen.There are two storerooms on the right side of the center of the courtyard. One of the two rooms is for ordinary fabrics and satins, and the other is for precious silk and satin fabrics, some of which are rare silkworm silk.There is an adjacent room on the left side of these two rooms, which is a place for storing valuables.

Shopkeeper Lin is a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament and a clean face. He has a well-groomed beard under his chin, giving him the impression of a scholar.Holding an account book and a writing brush in his hand, he wrote and drew on the account book while instructing the stout guys who were doing rough work to move the goods into the warehouse.

As soon as the buddy took Qi Qingfeng and the others into the backyard, shopkeeper Lin saw it. Seeing that the buddy brought someone he didn't know to the backyard without notifying him, shopkeeper Lin's two beautiful eyebrows frowned.He didn't question the buddy immediately, but looked at Qi Qingfeng, saluted with scholarly courtesy, and said with a smile, "Who is this young master?"

"Didn't Manager Jin inform you that I'm coming?" Qi Qingfeng was dressed in brocade clothes, with a jade crown and hair tied up, looking like an elegant young man.

Hearing Mr. Jin's words, shopkeeper Lin's face changed. He stared at Qi Qingfeng for a long while before returning to his senses and saying, "Young master, young master?" It is said that the young master and the young lady are going to visit the pass.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a month, the young master and young lady who are said to have been seen by the gods and dragons have really come!

"Lin Zhenqi has seen the young master and young lady." Facing the master, he hurriedly saluted.

Qi Qingfeng waved and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, you don't have to be polite."

Xia Yan pulled Zhu Ba to stand beside Qi Qingfeng obediently, her appearance seemed a bit like a lady's.Today's Xia Yan is wearing a beautiful dress, and a golden purple glass hairpin is stuck in her hair, making her quite gentle and charming.Of course, all of this is an illusion, Xia Yan is still very lively and cheerful on weekdays, like a wild girl.

Before coming here, Qi Qingfeng changed Zhu Ba into a new set of clothes.Zhu Ba was born well, the little doll has fair skin and dimples on her cheeks, and she is very cute when she smiles.In addition, he was originally the youngest son of the richest man Zhu Fugui, so he was born with a touch of nobility, even if he wore a seemingly plain dress, it would make him of an extraordinary background.

Shopkeeper Lin only knew that Qi Qingfeng and Xia Yan were coming, and seeing that they had brought a child with them, he couldn't help looking at Zhu Ba with some doubts. "Who is this?"

Qi Qingfeng said: "Just call him Young Master."

Shopkeeper Lin: "..." This young master is as old as a child!What a speed! !

Hearing Qi Qingfeng called him the young master, Zhu Ba was excited. He thought that his path to apprenticeship was not far away.Stretching his chest, Zhu Ba was proud, and said, "Master Lin just call me Xiao Ba."

Shopkeeper Lin bowed to Zhu Ba and said, "Master Xiao Ba."

Xia Yan: "..."

Qi Qingfeng glanced at Shopkeeper Lin, and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, ask someone to clean up a clean room for Yan'er and Xiaoba. As for you, take me to the accountant's office, because you just have something to talk to Shopkeeper Lin about."

Shopkeeper Lin's expression froze, he nodded slightly, and asked the guy who brought them in just now to take Xia Yan and Zhu Ba to the small courtyard wing on the right side of the courtyard to rest, and ordered them to take good care of them.Afterwards, shopkeeper Lin took Qi Qingfeng to the accountant's office to discuss matters.

As soon as he entered the accounting room, shopkeeper Lin closed the door, pulled out a chair, wiped the dust off the chair with his sleeve, and said, "The accounting room is simple, please sit down, young master."

Qi Qingfeng raised his hand, not intending to sit down, and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, you don't have to be polite, that's fine." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Shopkeeper Lin indifferently, and then said, "Shopkeeper Lin, do you know how many people have been around recently? In the past few months, the shopkeepers of the other branches of Langciji have lost contact?"

Shopkeeper Lin straightened up, nodded and said, "Twice a year, the shopkeepers of Langciji in the major counties in Guanzhou will come to Juyi Building in Luoyang City for a small gathering. But this year, there are six shopkeepers of Langciji branch stores Missed the appointment. At first, we thought they were busy, but later we realized that things were not that simple. Four months ago, the shopkeepers of the major branches, including Xiaoren, sent people to these six branches. That's when I found out something happened."

"What did you see in those six branches?"

"Dead." Thinking of the appearance of the sent people when they came back, and what they reported, shopkeeper Lin had already classified this incident as a ghost. "There are dead people inside and outside the store, and no one is alive. Everyone except the shopkeeper has been sucked dry of blood and turned into dry, mummified corpses."

"Mummy?" After squinting, Qi Qingfeng had some clues in his mind.

Heh, Jiao Jiao is right, coming to Luoyang City has indeed yielded something.

"Yes, it's a mummified corpse. All of them have become mummified corpses. They are so dry that they don't even have blood. The people from the government came over and sent someone to do an autopsy. There really wasn't a single drop of blood. And, there is one thing I think you should know, young master, that is the shopkeepers of these six branches, they are all missing, and now the government has issued arrest warrants, and even their family members are under surveillance."

"Even if the government posts this wanted notice, they will never be able to find the six of them for the rest of their lives." Standing with his hands behind his back, Qi Qingfeng had an inexplicable smile on his face.

This sentence is very light, like a whisper.

"Eh?"

"Let's hand over their matter to the government. I think the government will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." Even if there is no thorough investigation, such a big murder case has caused uproar in all provinces and towns, and the government has no choice but to take over the matter. up. "Shopkeeper Lin, thank you for the clues you provided. I think I'm going to disturb Shopkeeper Lin a lot in the near future." Luoyang City is really an interesting town, and I'm afraid she and Xia Yan won't leave here for the time being.

The smile on Qi Qingfeng's face made shopkeeper Lin feel a chill in his heart, but he didn't express it on his face, still showing a promise.He raised his hand again and saluted, and said: "Master was joking, it's a villain's fortune to let him bother you."

"Shopkeeper Lin, I want to ask you one thing. I want to ask Shopkeeper Lin to find a quiet house in Luoyang Xicheng."

Shopkeeper Lin panicked, and said: "Young master, you are being polite. It is a villain's job to do things for the young master. Don't worry, young master, I will help you with this matter tomorrow."

"En." Nodding, Qi Qingfeng turned his back to shopkeeper Lin, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised when the other party couldn't see him.

Shopkeeper Lin stood behind Qi Qingfeng, with his head slightly lowered, and a gleam of light flashed in his dark eyes.

After walking out of the accounting room, Qi Qingfeng went directly to the wing room on the right side of the courtyard.As soon as she left, shopkeeper Lin closed the door of the accounting room.Standing at the head of the room, with his back straight and his hands behind his back, he looked like a master. The previous reassurance towards Qi Qingfeng had long since disappeared. He raised his head and said coldly to a strange black figure on the top of the beam: "Let's not see each other recently."

"That kid is just an ordinary person, what are you afraid of?" A hoarse voice suddenly came out when there was no one in the room.

"This young master doesn't look like a pustule. He came here to investigate this matter. If he finds any clues, you and I will get into trouble." Shopkeeper Lin said coldly.

"Heh, if you are really afraid that he will find out some clues, how about treating him like those old guys as a sacrifice?"

Shopkeeper Lin narrowed his eyes, as if he was considering what the other party said.Indeed, if he was really afraid that Qi Qingfeng would find out something, he might as well just find a time to sacrifice him and become one of the sacrifices.In this way, they are not afraid that they will not be able to make up the sacrifices for that adult within the agreed time.

After a while, shopkeeper Lin stroked his beard and said, "Don't do anything now, I will tell you in two days."

Hearing what he said, the other party just sneered. "Heh." It didn't regard Lin Zhenqi as its partner, and used him as a joke from the beginning.For it, human beings are really easy to use. In the face of desire, everything is a cloud.However, it didn't want to find Lin Zhenqi at first, and it chose it on a whim, but it didn't expect that Lin Zhenqi would really impress it.In this world, even the most evil person still has a heart of love for his relatives, but this Lin Zhenqi has no love at all.

Being able to offer all his family members as sacrifices to that lord, Lin Zhenqi was so vicious to the bottom of his bones that even his soul exuded a stench.

The strange black shadow printed on the top of the beam turned into a trace of black gas and slowly left the account room. It floated into the air, and happened to see Qi Qingfeng who was standing in the small courtyard talking to Xia Yan.Staring at the expressionless Qi Qingfeng, it couldn't help but sneer in its heart. It is indeed a high-grade sacrifice. Although it is only an ordinary person, it is already a top-grade sacrifice among ordinary people. If you offer this person, that adult will be very happy, right? .

With that in mind, it slowly disappeared into midair.

After the trace of black gas disappeared, Xia Yan, who had been talking to Qi Qingfeng all this time, raised her head and looked at the place where the black gas was floating just now.

"Brother Shaoshang, it seems that this trip to Luoyang is quite fruitful, isn't it?"
