The rebirth of the first daughter is not easy to mess with

Chapter 836

At this time, the angle of the two of them was just right enough to see everything in the room clearly. Only Master Liu and the people who were squatting at the door before were in the room, and only with the light in the room, Shangguan Ning could see clearly The appearance of the two.

Mr. Liu is short and fat, wearing a silk jacket with a lot of flowers, and fluffy white trousers with leggings underneath, and a nondescript gold-encrusted longevity plaque hanging around his neck. What surprised Shangguan Ning the most was that Lord Liu's chin was clean and shiny, without any stubble. Except for the eunuchs in the deep palace, Shangguan Ning really didn't know that there would be a man without stubble.

The other man was also short, but contrary to Mr. Liu, he was very thin. If it wasn't for his sallow complexion and slightly visible wrinkles, he would have looked like a teenager.

This person is wearing a black double-breasted bunt, underneath is a pair of black wide-leg trousers, with a circle of white protective cloth tied around the trouser legs, and a pair of cloth shoes with long-shoulders layered soles. He has a long face, hanging eyes, and nostrils. Facing upwards, with round ears, a toad mouth, and a black mole the size of a grain of rice on the cheekbone, this person can be regarded as extremely ugly in terms of appearance alone.

Looking at this person apart from his appearance, there is a hint of cunning and treachery in the open and in the dark, a typical face born from the heart.

The two of them were like those soldiers in the room, holding a big knife in their hands, stabbing everywhere they passed, the brocade quilt on the bed was the most innocent, it was chopped to pieces by these people one by one, The bed board below was also lifted up.

However, apart from the person who just went in to search, there was nothing else in the house. All the places where people could hide have been turned upside down. In addition to the obscene clothes, there is still no one to see.

Mr. Liu was clearly on the verge of getting angry. He became impatient and kept circling around the room. Then he simply exerted force with his right hand and slashed the big knife in his hand on the table in the middle of the room. The big knife was sharp. , directly penetrated the table top, and was firmly embedded in the table.

"Is this what you said there was someone in the room? Where are the people? You said, where are the people?"

The thin, short man had a very ugly face, and bowed to Master Liu very aggrieved.

"My lord, please calm down, please allow me to think again."

The short man raised his brows, his small eyes twitched, and looked around the room, not letting go of every corner. He was different from Mr. Liu. He saw the boy enter the door with his own eyes. The tall man also came in, and just outside the door, he also vaguely heard someone talking in the room, and it was impossible for the two living people to disappear in the blink of an eye.

The short guy doesn't believe in evil, so there must be something strange in this house, but this courtyard was built not long ago, and the people living in it are all low-status refugees. Secret passages and institutions.

The room was originally not big, and there was very little furniture. It was clear at a glance where people could hide, and there were very few places where organs could be installed. Could it be that those two people knew some kind of fairy art?

"If you find someone today, you will be rich in wealth and honor. If you can't find him, you, a local snake, won't even think about living in Qingyun City."

Mr. Liu is now a naked threat, and he is really angry when he thinks about it.

After listening to Lord Liu's words, Shangguan Ning understood the identity of this short man. He turned out to be a local snake in Beicheng. No wonder this man was so well informed.

When it comes to inquiring about news, looking for people and things, these ruffians who are active in the streets and alleys are far more powerful than the servants in the court. Stealing is caught by the husband and raped in bed, and even who's pancakes are delicious and whose oil cakes are cheap. These people are very clear.

And these people are generally not doing their jobs properly, relying on collecting protection fees to live, and forming cliques to take care of each other, the Yamen has always turned a blind eye to these people, and if the people complained, they would be arrested. The two were sent to the prison for a few days, and after the incident was over, they were released quietly.

Because many times, the yamen still needs to rely on the power of these people to help the yamen collect evidence for some cases, so the yamen also responds to the call of the yamen when they indulge them, and whenever the yamen needs them, they will actively help in the investigation.

In the final analysis, an unwritten agreement was reached between the Yamen, a department under the imperial court, and these rogue gangs in the market, that is, to cooperate with each other for mutual benefit, and the cooperation has been pleasant for many years.

The reason why this short man worked so hard to help Master Liu was because several of his brothers committed crimes and were imprisoned, but the sufferer was still a big family in Qingyun City, with a lot of money, and he didn't know how to manage it up and down. How much money was given to the officials adjudicating the case, the purpose is to want the lives of those brothers.

People in the rivers and lakes rely on loyalty. There are a large group of brothers. Why should they listen to you? As soon as he heard that Bingmasi was trying his best to find such a person, he volunteered to take the job, and of course the conditions were negotiated in advance.

As soon as the front foot catches someone, his brothers will be released with the back foot. Now that the person is gone, wouldn't the lives of his brothers also be lost?
The short man rubbed his hands anxiously, his face wrinkled like an overripe walnut.

Suddenly, a few pearls the size of rice grains flew in from the window and landed directly on the floor in the northeast corner of the room. The pearls were so small that they could not make any movement at first, but one reason was that the pearls flew in from the window at a very fast speed. Quick, the second is that the person who threw the pearl was very powerful, and one-third of his skill was covered on the pearl.

Master Liu and the short man looked out of the window at the same time, but they couldn't see anything except the empty yard, and when they looked up at the roof, there was no one there.

"Master Liu, the sound of the pearl falling to the ground just now seems to be not quite right."

The short man was the first to withdraw his gaze, and expressed his thoughts while walking towards the place where the pearl fell.

Mr. Liu is not deaf, so naturally he heard the voice, but he was born in the army, so he can use his strength to arrest people, but if he uses tricks or tries to solve the case, his ability is far from that, and it is not even worth squatting on the ground to check at this time. Situation of the short man.

The two people in the room squatted on the ground together, knocking here and there, and Shangguan Ning, who was standing in the shadow of the side room, looked at Yan Mushang with a puzzled expression. , Shangguan Ning really couldn't be more familiar with it.

However, Shangguan Ning didn't want to comment on Yan Mushang's behavior at this time. She was very curious about Yan Mushang's behavior. Of course, she would not be so stupid as to think that Yan Mushang threw a few pearls because she was bored. Go inside the house and tease those people.

"I suspect there is an agency underground."

Shangguan Ning's eyes widened in disbelief. She and Yan Mushang had been standing together the whole time, seeing the same things. Why could Yan Mushang be able to see that there was a mechanism in that place?

"Is it a secret passage?"

Shangguan Ning asked softly with her lips.

"No, the ground here is full of rocks, and tunnels cannot be dug at all."

Yan Mushang used internal force to transmit the sound, and Shangguan Ning could hear it very clearly, but the others couldn't hear it at all.

Shangguan Ning was taken aback for a moment, the secret way was already deeply ingrained in her heart, after all, every crime Shangguan Hongqun committed was inextricably linked to the secret way, and apart from the secret way, Shangguan Ning could not think of What else can be done to make two people disappear in an instant.

"The secret passage in this room should be in the wall, or under the bed."

When Yan Mushang stood on the roof, he paid attention to the external structure of the house, and after he fell to the ground, he carefully looked at the furnishings in the house. Not only is there an invincible skill in the world, but also a heart as meticulous as dust.

The outside structure of the house does not seem to be significantly different from ordinary houses, but Yan Mushang, who is proficient in secret mechanisms, can tell at a glance that the northeast corner of the house is built slightly differently from other parts. It seems that the wall on one side is slanted. Insert it facing outward.

Whether it is a refugee camp or an ordinary dwelling, the emphasis is on facing the north and the south upright, but this house does the opposite, forcibly building a large part of the house crooked.

After falling to the ground, Yan Mushang found that the layout of the room was very square, completely different from what he saw from the outside, and the area inside the room was obviously much smaller than what he saw from the outside. The smaller area was definitely not because of The wall is thick, then the answer is ready to come out.

Also, there is the bed in the room. Although the quilt on the bed has been cut beyond recognition and the bed board is exposed, those Bing Yong and the two people who entered later did not notice that the base of the bed is The solid one is a whole board, and no one doubts that there are no pillars like this.

After listening to Yan Mushang's words, Shangguan Ning quickly turned her eyes back to the room, and saw the two people who were still confused just now standing up suddenly, holding something similar to a box in their hands, and then looked at the two people In front of him, the originally one-piece wall opened slowly, revealing a secret door that could allow one person to pass through.

Shangguan Ning covered her mouth with her hands in surprise, and she admired Yan Mushang even more in her heart. Her fiancé was really extraordinary.

Mr. Liu and the short man seemed to be taken aback, but after that, the two became excited because of the discovery in front of them. It seemed that they would not return empty-handed tonight.

Master Liu waved his hand, and the two soldiers behind him stepped forward. Master Liu pointed to them and then to the black hole on the wall. The meaning was very simple and clear. The two soldiers felt that they were unlucky. However, the black hole in front of him is more frightening than the evil wind he felt outside the house just now.

The sorrow of being a soldier is that there is no right to refuse. The command of the officer is an imperial decree to them. If there is a slight discrepancy, the officer can take his own life at any time. Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, the two are still together One after the other into the black hole.

Master Liu and the short man were obviously extremely excited, the previous panic and anger all disappeared, and Master Liu's eyes even had a faint green light, as if a lone wolf who had wandered in the wilderness for a long time finally saw food.

Although the short man was in a better mood than Mr. Liu, he still had an uncontrollable expression on his face. With his mouth open, he could even see the teeth inside. Although the wrinkles on his face did not diminish, they were not as good as they looked. It was so hideous and terrifying before, but it really is because people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and when their mood changes, their appearance also changes.

Suddenly, the two soldiers who had entered the hole in the wall came out backwards, one of them still had a sharp sword around his neck.

"You... a bold madman, dare... dare to...".

Master Liu stuttered his tongue. Although he hadn't seen the other person's appearance yet, for some reason, he felt uneasy first. Everyone has an intuition, and at this moment, Master Liu's intuition was that he might be in trouble.

While speaking, the two soldiers retreated completely from the hole in the wall, but the person holding the sharp sword only showed the arm of the hand holding the sword, and the face and most of the figure were still in the dark, making it difficult to see clearly.

"You traitor, why don't you catch him without a fight?"

This Mr. Liu seems to know these two sentences. He has repeated these two sentences over and over again since he entered the courtyard. It was just that he said them with momentum before, but now he doesn't even have the momentum. It was originally a cruel word. At this time, it sounds like the girls in Yihong courtyard practicing their voices.

"Liu Jin, who gave you the courage to shout in front of this general?"

Master Liu, who was called Liu Jin, suddenly felt that his back was wet with sweat, and the cold sweat soaked his clothes so hard that he couldn't prevent it. His calves couldn't help but tighten up again and again. Liu Jin seemed to have heard this sound before.

"You...who are you, that...you dare to call me by my first name?"

Liu Jin felt a little cold all over his body, as if he had been thrown into icy water in the coldest winter, but he was also a dignified fifth-rank official, and he was also paid by the court, so he couldn't stand up in front of these brave soldiers. They laughed at Zhou Manzi, the head snake, who showed his timidity in front of him, so they still stood upright and confronted him.

"Liu Jin, open your dog eyes and see clearly!"

The hand holding the sword inside suddenly withdrew, and Bingyong, who was originally held by the sword around his neck, was pushed out by a force. He stepped back a few steps and stood firm. He had just walked around the gate of hell, and now he escaped death. Bing Yong sat down on the ground, he is not Liu Jin, he does not need to protect the so-called face.

While speaking, the figure in the doorway moved slightly, and stood in front of Liu Jin in a moment. The light in the room was very bright, and Liu Jin naturally saw the person in front of him clearly, and his heart jumped out of his throat nervously.

Under what circumstances, how could I meet Shangguan Jin here?

"My subordinate Liu Jin didn't know the general was coming, so I ask the general to forgive me if I offended him!"

Those who know the current affairs are the best. Liu Jin has always been very convinced of this point, and he has carried it out very well.

As the saying goes, one level of official rank crushes people to death, and the Shangguan Jin in front of him is not one level or two higher than himself, but a genuine first-rank general protecting the country who can't reach it in his own life. Dayong's most elite 50 Qingyun Army is really a big man who can shake Qingyun City when stomping his feet.

If the other party wanted to pinch him to death, it would definitely not take more effort than pinching an ant to death, so when he saw that the person coming out was Shangguan Jin, Liu Jin immediately tucked his tail.

Although his heart was filled with countless doubts, he wisely decided to play dumb for his own safety.

"Liu Jin, what are you going to bring these soldiers here in the middle of the night?"

Shangguan Jin stood completely in the light, and Shangguan Ning in the prescription happened to be opposite to Shangguan Jin's position, but one was in the light and the other was in the dark.

"If you go back to the general, I was ordered to capture a fugitive, but I didn't expect to meet the general here. It's really rude!"

Liu Jinwu's short body bent down, almost reaching Shangguan Jin's shoulders, and half of his profiled face fell into Shangguan Ning's eyes. This Liu Jin was respectful to Shangguan Jin, but the treachery in his eyes was naked .

"It turned out that he was catching fugitives. Mr. Liu was on official business, but this general was abrupt."

Shangguan Jin's tone also changed very quickly. Just now, he was still yelling Liu Jin's big name aggressively, but in a blink of an eye, he became Master Liu. Sure enough, there is no one in the officialdom who knows how to act.

"Don't dare, it's the lower officials who offend the general because they are lax in controlling their subordinates, the lower officials are deeply disturbed."

"Master Liu, you are being polite. You and I are officials in the same dynasty. Although we have different responsibilities, we are both loyal to Dayong. Since your Excellency is performing official duties, this general will not bother you. Your Excellency is easy!"

Shangguan Jin had a gentle face, and stretched out his right hand as a gesture of invitation, his words were polite, but in fact, he was issuing an order to chase away guests in disguise.

Liu Jin exhausted his efforts to find this secret room. He didn't believe that there was only Shangguan Jin in it. What's more, in the middle of the night, Shangguan Jin's first-rank general was not sleeping in his mansion with his wife and concubine in his arms. , but ran to this remote refugee compound, it really cannot be doubted.

"Forgive me, the general. The reason why the younger one found this courtyard was because someone saw that person enter the courtyard with his own eyes, and the subordinate officials searched the courtyard all over. Only this secret room was not searched in time. The general also knew that the accusation of the subordinate officials was justified." It is guarding the holy capital, although the general has stated that he has never seen any criminals, but the role of the villain, you have to check it yourself to truly feel at ease, and the general Wang forgives any offense!"

Liu Jin stood with his hands clasped in front of his chest, with a respectful expression on his face, he really looked like an upright official for the country and the people.

Shangguan Jin's brows flashed, Liu Jin's meaning couldn't be more obvious. This is because he doesn't trust himself, and he wants to enter the secret room to search. The reason is very high-sounding. It makes people think that there are ghosts in their hearts.

"Master Liu is loyal to his duties, and he is a model of our Dayong officials. This general really admires him!"

Liu Jin let out a haha, but didn't answer. He stared at the entrance of the secret room with burning eyes, his gaze seemed to be about to burst into flames. The more Shangguan Jin tried to stop him, the more Liu Jin was sure that there was something strange in the secret room.

In normal times, Liu Jin would not have the guts to confront Shangguan Jin. How could he touch Shangguan Jin's brows before he could fawn on him? But this matter is different. , this matter is worth Liu Jin's risk.

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, babies!This chapter is called Twist and Twist, because it is really not easy to find Shangguan Hongqun, but later on, Bao'er will know why Jiu'er arranged it like this, ho ho, wait and see!
