When Lingyun walked in front of the county yamen, a little boy suddenly came out next to the stone lion, wearing simple blue clothes, because the pulp had been washed too much, some whitish color, patches everywhere, the clothes were very neat, not like a beggar, his face was childish, it was actually a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, rushed over and hugged Lingyun and cried loudly.

Ling Yun was very impatient with this kind of beggar who had no bottom line and forced to take it, and just wanted to kick it away, the little beggar himself stopped crying and said in a low voice: "My lord, the master asked me to tell you that Chen Shizhong is cheating, and the 10,000 taels of silver will not be given to you, so let you leave this place quickly." ”

Only then did Ling Yun understand that he was the one sent by Zhang Anguo to report the news, and he regretted despising him just now, so he took out two taels of gold from his waist and threw it to the little beggar, saying, "This is a reward for you, go buy a cake to eat!"

The little beggar's eyes widened when he looked at the gold, but he didn't dare to reach out to take it, and said in his mouth: "My lord, the master has already rewarded me with silver, and I can't take your money anymore!"

"Take it, what the master gave you is his reward, and this one is what I gave you. Lingyun said.

Although the little beggar had never seen gold, he knew the value of this gold, two taels of gold, almost equal to two hundred taels of silver, that was a huge amount of money for him, enough to worry about food and clothing for a lifetime, he respectfully kowtowed a few times on the ground, held the gold in both hands, and said, "Thank you, master!"

Seeing the little beggar reluctantly leaving, Ling Yun said in his heart, this Chen Shizhong I have long expected him to pretend to give in in front of me, in fact, he must be dissatisfied in his heart, and he will plot tricks when he turns his head, but he didn't expect him to rebel so quickly, and he has not left Jingnan County, he has already begun to prepare for a counterattack.

"It's okay, I originally wanted to give him a way to live, but I can't blame me for looking for death now. Ling Yun muttered to himself, a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Continue to walk forward, on the street, there is always silence, but in the gaps between the doors of shops and houses on both sides, there are countless pairs of curious eyes, through the tiny holes, peeking at the Jiangyang thief who has made a lot of trouble in Jingnan County, is it the legendary three-headed and six-armed supernatural power?

Ling Yun walked to the mansion of a tall gatehouse, the plaque of Hu Fu on the door had already been removed, leaving a white mark in the air, it seemed that Hu Shao's family should have left here.

However, the dense rut marks in front of the door were deeply left on the ground, and the messy footprints trampled by the horse's hooves were stained with wet soil, and they had not yet dried, which showed that someone had just passed by here not long ago, and the gate was closed from the inside, and it was obvious that there were still people living inside and had not left, and the people inside the door must not be from Hufu, otherwise they would not easily take off the two-word plaque of Hufu.

Ling Yun walked to the door, and just wanted to push the door in, but the red door opened from the inside, and out came two servants in gray clothes, one tall and one short, holding waist knives, with a face full of meat, not so much pushing the door open, but crashing the door open.

Fortunately, Ling Yun had already heard heavy footsteps coming from inside, and had already dodged away, watching the two strong servants, rushing out, and shouting: "Where did you come from, you are sneaking around in front of the door, what do you want to do, do you know who lives inside?"

"Are there people living in it? Oh, if you don't say it, I'd think it's dogs." Ling Yun pretended not to understand.

"Such a big mansion, you thought there were dogs living here, where did this fool come from, today you bumped into the uncle, you are ......unlucky," the evil servant scolded angrily.

"It's not a dog that lives, how can I hear a dog barking here?" Ling Yun said with a smile.

The two servants had already drawn their waist knives, and when they saw that it was they who he was scolding, he was full of anger and scolded: "Dog, dare to scold your grandfather and me! If I don't kill you today, I will take your surname." ”

"I want to have my surname, but I may not agree with your grandfather, I don't want to have such unscrupulous descendants. Ling Yun scolded with a smile as he dodged their knives, so angry that the two of them screamed.

"Who is making noise outside the door, don't you know a little rule?" An old voice suddenly came from inside the door.

As soon as the two servants heard this sound like an ancient bell, they hurriedly stood up, no longer continued to pursue Ling Yun, and respectfully bowed to the door, and said, "Old Qi, there is a bold maniac outside the door, who has come to make trouble, and the two of us are cleaning up this ......."

Before the words fell, the two screamed in pain, their bodies flew up, and slammed into the red lacquer door, knocking the door open, and there was a white-haired old man standing inside, who was almost hit by the door, brushing his nose and hanging over.

The reason why the two of them flew so high and collided so violently was, of course, that Ling Yun raised his foot behind the two servants and added a heavy force to his buttocks, causing the two to crash into the door like a rocket launch.

The old man's face was clear, if it weren't for the white hair on his head, and the deep wrinkles on his face like ravines, Ling Yun would have thought that the Crane Immortal himself was here.

The old man stretched out his hands, stopped the two servants from hitting the door and continuing to rush forward, straightened them, and a fist-sized red envelope swollen on his head, his face was ashamed, and said, "Old Qi, that person took advantage of our unpreparedness and secretly attacked, so ......"

"Needless to say, people who practice martial arts should have watched and listened to all directions, and always be on guard, fortunately, it was a kick, if it was a knife down, the lives of the two of you would have been gone, understand?" Qi Lao said with a gloomy face.

"What Elder Qi taught me is that my subordinates know. The two of them are very respectful to this old man who is honored as Qi Lao, it can be seen that his status is not low, could it be that he is the one who robbed the Hu Mansion and took it for himself?

"I don't know what to call this person, why do you want to make trouble in front of my palace, and fight against the subordinates of my palace, why did they offend Your Excellency?"

"They didn't offend me, they should have asked them, why ask me, even if I said they offended me, you would say, even if they offended me, there is no need to be so ruthless, and then it all becomes mine, my sin, you can fight and teach me a lesson, right?" Ling Yun said.

This sharp answer made that Qi Lao's face even more gloomy, and said: "Your Excellency has been given a chance to explain, but you don't answer directly when you talk about him left and right, then I have to take it as Your Excellency's unprovoked provocation, don't blame the old man for being ruthless." ”

"Well, since you've said so, don't blame me for not respecting the old enough. Lingyun said.

"Old Qi, this guy has been sneaking around outside the door just now, and when we stepped forward to ask, he didn't answer well, but scolded us for being dogs, so he taught him a lesson, and it was really his fault. The two servants were afraid that Qi Lao would blame them, so they preemptively said it, but they only told the part that was beneficial to them, and the rest were covered up and did not tell the truth, for example, as soon as they opened the door, they scolded Ling Yun for being a dog, and they didn't mention this fuse at all.

Qi Lao was noncommittal to the words of the two, Ling Yun knew that they were the same dog, the reason why this old man did not act easily, but pretended to be fair first, and came to question, obviously he wanted to figure out the dispute between the two parties, but in fact, he just saw Ling Yun's powerful footwork, and wanted to find out his identity, so as not to make a fool of himself in the end, for this kind of old treacherous and cunning old rivers and lakes, Ling Yun knows their minds better than them.

"Don't do it yet, old man, I'm afraid that if you wait any longer, you won't be able to consume it, after all, you are so old. Lingyun said.

Sure enough, this sentence completely angered the white-haired old man, and the wind filled Qi Lao's two wide robe sleeves, and he said angrily: "I have never said anything disrespectful to you, but you have spoken disrespectfully to me three times and twice, Your Excellency, it's too much." ”

"It's not excessive, someone has seized someone else's territory, used it for his own use, and called it the palace, compared with this kind of bad behavior, what I have done is not too much. Lingyun said.

Qi Lao is really old and sleek, he doesn't want to teach this rude stinky boy in front of him a lesson, just because he saw that his skill was far above himself, so he kept it back, and when he heard Ling Yun's words at this moment, he realized that he was angry for the former owner of the Hu Mansion, so he said: "The original family of this mansion is surnamed Hu, are you a member of the Hu family?"

"I'm not from the Hu family, the road is uneven, can only the people of the Hu family fight for the Hu family?" Ling Yun said.

"The Hu family left Jingnan County and sold this huge mansion to the king of Jingnan County for a price, there are buying and selling, fair trade, what are you dissatisfied with?" Qi Lao said calmly.

Ling Yun's heart was full of suspicions, at that time, the king of Jingnan County had already known the identities of the Hu family's sisters and brothers, how could they come to buy the enemy's house, this old man's words may not be true, it is likely to be a lie and deceive people, so he said: "Then you should show me the deed of the sale!"

"Originally, this is a matter of buying and selling both parties, since you are not from Hu Mansion, then you are not qualified to see this deed and sales contract, but you are here to find fault today, even if we want to teach you a lesson, we must let you know it clearly, otherwise you will definitely be unconvinced, then wait, I will go to the mansion and bring the contract to you!" Qi Lao turned around and returned to the mansion, and the two servants followed closely into the mansion, closing the red gate, leaving Ling Yun outside.

Ling Yun muttered in his heart, this guy won't take the opportunity to slip away, but if he can run, the monk can't run the temple, even if they all pack their bags and slip away through the back door, they can't take this huge Hu Mansion away, not to mention that with their escape speed, no matter how many hours they let them go first, they can't escape from the range of their control at all, as long as they can reach them in an instant, where can they escape?

Therefore, Ling Yun was not afraid at all, and sat down swaggering on the wide pedestal of the stone lion in front of the door, as if sitting on a stone chair made of stone, waiting for the people in Nafu to come out and reply.
