Pang Jiushan originally planned to let Ning Du take the exam instead of himself this year, but after he was admitted, he would withdraw from the Qingteng Garden step by step, so that it would not be exposed, and Ning Du could also study in the Qingteng Garden for a year, and he could still take the test again next year. However, Ning Du suddenly took the top spot, and Pang Jiushan became the target of public criticism, and this matter will be exposed sooner or later, and it will not end well at that time.

After carefully discussing many things to ensure that there would be no problems, and combing through again, Pang Jiushan got up and left. Ning Du woke up Hu Ran, who was asleep on the table, cleaned up the table, washed his face and prepared to sleep.

"Dazhen Kingdom, His Majesty the Holy Emperor, Nanxing, Di Mingyue, Pingshengqian, Pingshengkun......"

As soon as he lay down on the bed, he suddenly remembered these names, and Ning Du was still faintly uneasy in his heart. Without the protection of monks and Taoist priests, he must learn to practice as soon as possible in order to save his life, but fortunately, he can enter the Qingteng Garden now, and his cultivation can be regarded as an eyebrow. Things have to be done one by one, and they can't be done in a hurry.

sounded the alarm bell in his heart again, Ning Du was still not ready to sleep. He pricked up his ears all the time, catching the slightest movement. If he heard him right, two people must have infiltrated the house. Is it a thief or a bandit?

The door was opened, and the shadows slowly approached.

Since he was almost kidnapped by the shopkeeper of Liuxian Ju last time, Ning Du bought a dagger to defend himself, and at this time he had already held the dagger beside the bed.

When the black shadow approached Ning Du, he pounced suddenly, Ning Du did not raise his hand to pull out the dagger, but continued to pretend to be asleep, and then pretended to wake up, struggle, and be angry.

"Don't speak, or I'll kill you!"

Ning Du nodded in panic and hid the dagger in his sleeve.

The black shadow who came immediately tied Ning Du with a rope, stuffed the white cloth into his mouth, pressed the dagger against his waist, and pressed him out.

As soon as the two of them went out, they met another black shadow, and the black shadow lowered his voice and reprimanded: "Why don't you knock him out and carry him away?"

"He's so heavy, you're going to carry it?"

The black shadow held back his anger, took a step forward, and raised his hand to hit the back of Ning Du's neck.

Ning Li struggled for a moment, ducked, slammed forward, jumped, and broke away from the two of them like crazy.

The black shadow took out the bright sharp knife, rushed two steps, caught up with Ning Du, locked his neck with one hand, and stabbed the sharp knife into the thigh with one hand. Ning Du also held the dagger back at this time, but he didn't stab it out first.

Syllable!

The sharp knife in the shadow's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

"Who is it?" the shadow looked at his swollen right hand from an unknown object, and suddenly tensed.

Smack!

Seven or eight small pebbles flew in, and immediately swelled the hands and feet of the two men in black, and the intense pain made their limbs uncontrollable, and both of them fell to the ground and struggled. A few small pebbles put down two strong men, which is really a bit funny.

One person jumped off the roof and cut the rope for Ning Du. Ning Du didn't look at who saved him, but just picked up the sharp knife from the ground, put it against the throat of one of the men in black, and asked, "Why did you arrest me?"

"If you want to kill or chop casually, where are there so many things?"

"Good. Ning Du stuffed the white cloth into the mouth of the man in black, and then stabbed him, stabbed him again, stabbed again. Instead, he asked another man in black, "Why did you arrest me?"

Seeing his companion like this, anyone would be scared enough, but the man in black still threatened: "The two of us are Dong Jinwei, you committed a murder, and the two of us were ordered to arrest you, if you dare to ......"

Ning Du stabbed the man in black who had almost become a corpse again, stared at the other intact man in black, and said, "Don't you tell the truth?"

The pungent smell of blood filled his nose, and the black shadow seemed to feel the pain of the knife piercing his body, and said in horror: "We two are just little thieves, I heard that you escaped here, so I want to come and arrest you and return to Guanzhong to receive the reward." ”

"Arrest me? just because of three thousand taels?"

"Didn't you kill Zeng Mingkai's Seventh Miss......"

"She's dead?"

"You killed her and pretended not to know?"

Ning Du stood up, threw the sharp knife on the body of the man in black, thought for a moment, and then turned to the person next to him and said, "These two people, I bother you to deal with it." ”

The person who came to the rescue stretched out his hand and flicked it, knocked the two people out with two stones, stared at Ning Du, and said: "You stabbed this person four times, but the knife avoided the vital point, the bleeding was very little, and the technique was quite skillful, and you seem to have known that I was here, what is your origin?"

Ning Du smiled and said, "Your young master doesn't ask me, why are you asking me for?" I'm okay with your loyalty, but don't come and inquire about me. I am not your young master's enemy, I am his friend. ”

The person who came was silent for a moment, picked up the two men in black, climbed over the wall, and quickly disappeared into the alley.

"The seventh lady of Zeng Mingkai's family is dead, how can this basin be buckled on my head?" Ning Du thought for a moment, took out a bead stolen from Zeng Mingkai's house from his arms, and wondered, "Could it be because of this? At that time, I just thought it was pleasing to the eye, so I could come over, is there anything strange about this thing?" Forget it, go to sleep." After putting away the beads and cleaning up the yard to make sure that nothing unusual was visible, Ning Du went back to his room and slept.

——

"Uncle Yan, why are you back?" asked Pang Jiushan with some astonishment.

The person who rescued Ning Du just now was sent by Pang Jiushan, who was Uncle Yan, who had been loyal to the Pang family for more than 20 years, and was also a cultivator of the Second Realm.

"Young Master, someone is going to kidnap Ning Du tonight. ”

"What, Brother Ning, how is he?"

"It's fine. It was only two thieves who came to kidnap him, and they told the reason for the matter - the seventh daughter of Zeng Mingkai, a great merchant in Guanzhong, was killed, and it was Ning Du who defrauded Zeng Mingkai of his money in the first place, and Zeng Mingkai's seventh daughter also disappeared when Ning Du disappeared. While Zeng Mingkai reported to the government, he also placed a reward of 100,000 taels, which attracted countless people to want to capture Ning Du. These two thieves came from Guanzhong to join their relatives in Liuxianju, and when they heard the shopkeeper talk about the silver ticket, they had bad intentions. first asked the shopkeeper about Ning Du's whereabouts, and then killed the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, the sunspot and the three thugs, and finally arranged the escape carriage and horses, and came to kidnap Ning Du tonight. ”

"Zeng Mingkai notified the government, has the sea fishing document been issued?"

"It's issued. ”

"Is there a portrait?"

"Yes, but according to the two thieves, the portrait is seriously inconsistent with Ning Du himself. ”

Pang Jiushan stood for a while before asking, "What about the two thieves?"

"In the backyard. ”

"If they can write, they will scrap their fingers, then cut off their tongues, twist them to the government, and say that they have solved the tragedy of Liuxianju. If you can, it's best to hide the death of Kuroko and the three thugs, so that others think that they are just killing people for money. No, it has to be. ”

"Understood. ”

"Let Tatsuko go to Guanzhong and figure this out. Eighty percent of this matter was planted by someone to blame the blame. ”

"Okay, I'll tell Tatsuko right away. ”

"Let Uncle Tong take 100,000 taels over, and I'll go to the fifth master to detain the sea fishing papers. As soon as he said that, Pang Jiushan felt that it was inappropriate, and said, "No need, doing this is to cover your ears and steal the bell." There are thousands of sea fishing documents every year, even if Zeng Mingkai pays 100,000 taels, the government will not care too much. By the way, let Ajdo pay attention to the people coming from Guanzhong. Uncle Yan, don't come back again, follow Brother Ning all the time, don't let him have any accidents. ”

Uncle Yan hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Pang Jiushan glanced at Uncle Yan and said sincerely: "Uncle Yan, I know your thoughts, I hope you can at least have half of my heart for Brother Ning, Brother Ning is my friend, and he will not be unfavorable to us." Forget it, after a long time, Uncle Yan, you will understand. ”

"I know, young master. ”

"Okay, let's do these things quickly. ”

Pang Jiushan looked out the window and secretly wondered: "One hundred thousand taels, Zeng Mingkai, do you really love your fat daughter, or do you have other plans?" Fortunately, the clues in this matter are broken, and they can be eased a little. The most important thing at the moment is the matter of Qingteng Garden. ”
