Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 122 Clues

Bai Yufeng at the side shouted in a low voice: "Uncle Qian, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Then he said to Hu Qian: "Uncle Qian is getting old, and his sanity is not clear."

Hu Qian was speechless for a while, and asked: "Although I said so, but who is the fourth aunt..."

Bai Yufeng said: "Si Yiniang was originally just a servant girl in the family, she was not very good-looking, she was used to rough work, so she was usually a bit rude.

As a junior, I shouldn't have said more, but my father didn't know what he liked about him, so he accepted her as his concubine. "

"When did this happen?"

"Less than a year before and after."

"Can you take me to meet this Fourth Aunt?"

"This... doesn't seem appropriate."

Hu Qian said: "Then see Mrs. Bai first, and then invite her over."

Only then did Bai Yufeng agree, and first let people know Yu's family, and then brought Hu Qian to the main hall.

Hu Qian saluted and sat on the lower chair.

"Madam, may I ask how long Madam and Lord Bai have been married?"

Mrs. Yu looked at Bai Yufeng, and then said, "Twenty-five years and four months."

"After such a long time, madam must have known Lord Bai the best."

"Mr. Hu has something to say, but it's okay to say it. As long as I can clear the snow for the master, I will know everything."

Hu Qian nodded, "Dare to ask Madam, do you feel that Master Bai has suddenly become strange in the past year?"

Yu Shi thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said: "This one is not there, he is not much different from before."

"There's not much difference...meaning there's still a difference, right?"

"If you really want to be serious, you can say that."

"What are the specific conveniences?"

Mrs. Yu pondered for a while, "Master has become taciturn in recent years, although he didn't talk much before, but recently it's a bit different."

"What is the difference?"

"He seems to be hiding something in his heart."

"Any more?"

"He almost stays in the study on weekdays, and even at night, he almost always goes to Simei's place to rest."

Hu Qian nodded, "Madam said earlier that Lord Bai still drinks hot tea at night, when did it start?"

"I can't remember the exact time, but it probably started last year."

"Does Master Bai often wake up in the night?"

"This... Occasionally, but after that... because I don't rest together, I don't know much about it."

Just as they were talking, the fourth aunt, Sun, came in from the outside, saw that there was an outsider in the room, and didn't know how to be polite, so she said carelessly, "Sister, who is this person?"

Yu said: "Don't be rude, this is Mr. Hu Qian, and he is here to investigate the master's case."

Sun suddenly shed tears and cried, "My lord, what a miserable death..."

She only cared about crying by herself, completely ignoring Hu Qian who just stood up and prepared to salute.

Bai Yufeng said: "She is like this, she will be fine in a while."

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, she stopped crying and said to Hu Qian, "Where is Mr. Hu from? What are you doing in the capital?"

Hu Qian was helpless for a while, but then he became curious.

If this Mrs. Sun didn't have any outstanding features, how could Lord Bai have taken a fancy to her.

So he asked, "Mrs. Sun, is there anything unusual about Mr. Bai recently?"

Mrs. Sun shook her head and said, "No, the master is very kind to me, he will buy me whatever I want."

"Then did he say anything special to you?"

"nor."

Hu Qian was puzzled, and suddenly his heart moved, and he asked, "How is Madam's sleep?"

Sun said: "What does it mean to sleep well?"

Mrs. Yu said angrily, "Just to ask if you slept soundly or not?"

Mrs. Sun didn't care too much, and said with a smile, "I'll just touch the pillow, whirring."

Hu Qian said: "Even if someone is talking or doing other things beside you, you won't wake up, will you?"

"Thunder is unstoppable.

For example, that day, the clothes hanger fell to the ground and thumped, and I only heard the story from the maid outside on the second day. "

Hu Qian's mind was like a flash of lightning in the dark night, and he lost his voice: "Can you take me to see that hanger?"

Seeing how excited he was, Bai Yufeng immediately said, "Auntie, take us there quickly!"

Yu said: "Let's go and have a look."

Although Mrs. Sun was careless, she didn't dare to disobey Mrs. Yu's words, so she hurriedly brought a few people into the house.

"That's the hanger."

Hu Qian stepped forward to take a closer look, and saw that it was just a very ordinary clothes hanger.

But according to intuition, the matter is by no means as simple as it seems.

So Sun asked Mrs. Sun to remove all the clothes on it, and lifted the hanger aside to expose the wall behind.

He touched it little by little, and suddenly felt a movement in his hand, and saw that a brick could actually move.

So he carefully pulled out the brick. Although there was a space the size of a fist, nothing was placed inside.

Bai Yufeng was disappointed, and when he was about to ask, Hu Qian said, "I seem to understand what's going on, but there is one thing that needs to be verified."

"How to verify?"

Hu Qian looked at him straight, "Go to the demon division."

Bai Yufeng stared at him blankly and said: "Impossible, no one can go there except the emperor and the people inside the Zhenyaosi."

"That can't be helped, we have to go."

Back to Beizhen Fusi, Ruan Conghai was not there, so Hu Qian had to ask Zuo Qianhu to take him to Zhenyaosi.

Zuo Qianhu was reluctant at first, but Hu Qian only said that he should be taken to the main entrance, and he would figure out the rest by himself.

Although Zhenyaosi is under the control of Qintian Supervisor, it is not in the city, but on Siming Mountain five miles away.

The two rode their horses for a distance and arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Zuo Qianhu pointed to the top of the mountain and said: "It's on the top, you can go up by yourself."

Hu Qian nodded and walked quickly to the top.

However, the Zhenyaosi really did what Bai Yufeng said, although there was a gate there, but there was no one in front of it, not even a guard.

He took a step forward and shouted: "Student Jinling Hu Qian, I'm here to pay a special visit."

No one answered.

In the courtyard, the three people that Hu Qian met in Xiaoyizhuang were sweeping. Hearing the sound outside, he was taken aback immediately, and looked at each other in disbelief.

"Did I hear correctly just now, it seems to be Jinling Hu Qian?"

"Yes, it's him!"

"This guy offended the princess, yet he dared to come!"

After a while, another three or five people came out of the house, staring and saying: "The person outside the door is Hu Qian, right?"

"That's right, we've seen him in Xiaoyizhuang before."

"Okay! I heard that as long as you defeat him, you can marry Zhiqin. I've wanted to try it for a long time."

"It's up to you, even if you win."

"Don't underestimate Hu Qian! At Xiaoyizhuang, he killed the dreamer with a single flash of sword light. It's really amazing!"

"No matter how powerful it is, it's not like you can't even enter this courtyard!"

"Of course, the formation in this courtyard was jointly arranged by Da Si Ming and Shao Si Ming. Not to mention a little Hu Qian, even a god descended to earth, he would definitely not be able to enter..."

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a nearby voice saying: "So there is a formation in this courtyard? It's really powerful!"

Several people looked up and saw Hu Qian was looking around with great interest...
