Chapter 130: Cold Reception

After sending off the spirit master, Lord Li felt uncomfortable for a while, turned his head to look at the old mansion that had been renovated many times, hundreds of years long, and then looked at the two huge, almost towering ancient banyan trees in front of the door, and felt depressed.

He didn't want to go back for a while, so he casually folded a long green grass leaf from the mountain, wrapped it around his fingertips, and wrapped it around a small grasshopper.

Emerald green, very beautiful.

"One more, one more!"

Suddenly, there was a burst of children's crisp laughter and shouts on the hillside next to them.

Lord Li perked up, turned his head to look over, and saw a few little girls and mountain babies in the village gathered around a carriage.

He couldn't help but stand up and walked over.

"Stand up!"

A squirrel, a small vole, two small milk cats, a half-large, fat puppy, and their old janitor dog, all standing on their hind feet and vacating on their front feet.

"Lined up."

Although one of them was wearing a curtain hat, she looked very young, her voice was full of magnetism, and she was very moving.

These small animals moved their legs, stood up spontaneously, and arranged them in a row according to their height, from short to tall.

Master Li was dumbfounded, he couldn't understand how anyone could train several different animals so flexibly, even those jugglers in the capital, it was okay to train a monkey, a mouse, and a cat, but they really hadn't seen it.

A small vole pounced, fell, seemed a little embarrassed, shook its ears and stood up. Secretly hid his head behind his brother.

Master Li immediately laughed.

A group of children cheered even more.

Hongchen patted the ground with a smile, and a group of small things sat down honestly and looked up at her.

Even those children do the same thing, it's really funny.

Master Li was originally nervous, and he couldn't wait to jump like thunder, but he instantly relaxed a lot.

Hongchen glanced at him, didn't speak at first, and continued to play this kind of flower work in response to a group of children.

Two little voles dance with their paws touching their paws.

The cat beats.

The little squirrel led the two dogs to beg for a reward, and got the wild fruit in the hands of the children. The little snacks in the pocket were not saved. But the kids were happy.

Luo Niang stood behind, watching her young lady deceive other people's children's food, she was speechless, so she had to turn her head and take out a food box. Divide the various snacks inside. Stuff for small children. If you don't make up for it, let the parents see it, and they don't want to stay in the village at night.

A group of little dolls eat delicious pastries that are rare in the capital. Immediately I was happier and happier.

Master Li exhaled, and his eyebrows and eyes became a little dull again.

The family had to move out.

The high monk had already reminded him that if he sold the house to the spirit masters and let the spirit masters deal with it slowly, the longer they stayed here, the more trouble they would have, and maybe the village would be implicated.

"Hey!"

As soon as he turned his head, he heard someone behind him shouting: "But Lord Li in person?" ”

He was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw the woman who was coaxing the children to play just now, walked two steps quickly, walked in front of him, and was a little surprised: "I'm Li Ruhui?" Miss is? ”

Hongchen coughed, a little embarrassed: "That's the case, have you recently got a new stone qilin?" ”

Li Ruhui didn't react at first, and then said after a while: "Ah, yes, our family has been in trouble recently, and the housekeeper at home has changed the town object at the door with a unicorn, what's wrong?" ”

Hongchen sighed: "That unicorn is mine." ”

"Huh?"

Master Li was stunned.

Luo Niang twisted her head and feet behind her and almost fell.

I didn't expect this young lady of their family to be so upright and upright, so she just said this.

After thinking about it again, there is really nothing unseemly, what can't be said, you can't be careful about everything just because the matter involves that Xia Cicada, for fear of making a mistake?

If you don't care about everything and put on a treacherous appearance, it will make people feel uneasy, maybe it will backfire and make Master Li feel uncomfortable.

Now be open and honest, and directly say that it is his own unicorn, Lord Li has been the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and he must be a kind-hearted person who is particularly knowledgeable, and when the time comes, whether his own lady is redeemed at the original price, or if he has other ideas, he can communicate.

Apparently that's what Hongchen thinks.

She walked slowly, sent Master Li back to his house, and whispered along the way that San Lang stole the unicorn and turned it over to the Li house.

Li Ruhui was stunned when he heard this.

"In other words, Miss made a special trip for a stone unicorn?" He was also a little surprised, scratching his head, "This ......"

Hongchen smiled, stretched out his hand and patted the big unicorn, and said, "I like black!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Ruhui was dumbfounded-the white, ordinary-looking stone unicorn instantly turned black, black, almost like an iron pimple, but his eyes were a little brighter.

"It's better not to be black, it's better to be red."

Hongchen said again.

After that, the black unicorn snorted and turned red.

Li Ruhui blinked, turned his head to look at Hongchen, there was a little more jealousy in his eyes, Hongchen was stunned, and also remembered that the Li family is not peaceful now, this old man is probably very worried, and hurriedly said: "Don't blame, my lord, it's me Meng Lang, it's just because there is something important, I really want to find the Qilin, so I am presumptuous." ”

Before the words fell, the unicorn let out a faint long howl, with a little joy and intimacy.

Hongchen patted its head and said with a smile: "Please forgive me." ”

"It's okay, it's okay."

Li Ruhui smiled bitterly and sighed, "I never believed in these messes before, but there was so much chaos in the family, and I knew that there were many capable people in the world, so I wanted Miss to have a strange skill...... Since Miss's things, then I will naturally return them as they are. ”

Hongchen politely thanked him, and didn't say anything like compensation. The boss of the family is not short of money, and it means to look down on people when he says this.

After Master Li finished speaking, he turned his head and said hello, and two family members came to the house: "You help the handle, send the unicorn to the young lady's car." ”

The two family members responded, stood over, one left and one right, firmly stepped as a horse, hugged the unicorn with both hands, and exerted force under the waist. Shouted: "Get up!" ”

“……”

The unicorn remained motionless.

The expression on Li Ruhui's face was a little wrong. coughed: "Ahem, Ah Da, Ah Er, you two are also here." ”

Immediately two more people came out of the house.

Li Ruhui's Ding is obviously not ordinary. The temples bulge. The muscles are very strong. At first glance, it is a practicing family.

The four men walked over, shouted the trumpet, and moved hard. As a result, they were still motionless, and the faces of the four of them were red, and it was obvious that all the strength of the whole body was exerted.

Li Ruhui: "...... You haven't eaten? ”

If this unicorn was really that heavy, how did he poke his door in the first place, obviously he would have carried it alone at that time.

The second Ah Er of their family has 300 catties of arm strength, which is still the smallest strength among these people.

Li Ruhui glanced at Hongchen, so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, this person is really ...... Lost big, he hesitated, and was about to shout out everything that could be moved in the house, Hongchen hurriedly said: "Don't bother Lord Li, I'm afraid that this little thing in my family will only listen to me, or I will come." ”

"Ugh."

Li Ruhui was stunned when he heard this.

The family beside him couldn't help but look at Hongchen.

Hongchen stood there, not low, but definitely not high, with a slender skeleton, the exposed jade hands were as white as snow, and her skin was delicate, she was a fresh little girl.

"It's okay, miss, don't worry, I still have a family at home."

How could such a little girl be able to move something that a few big men couldn't move!

Li Ruhui sighed - what is the matter, he is an old man in his fifties, he has been a man for many years, and he has been tossed again and again just a few days after his idle days, and now he has to deal with the trouble caused by a little girl.

Having said that, he turned around and planned to go and find more people, take ropes and burdens, and carry the big stone to the cart.

He didn't have time to move, so he saw Hongchen walk over, took out a thin red rope from his sleeve, and put it on casually, the rope actually passed through Shi Qilin's nose, she pulled it gently, squeak, these four people couldn't move a single big stone, but followed Hongchen's footsteps, moved step by step, and walked outside.

Li Ruhui: "......"

His old man was quite calm, and the rest of the family members, their feet were soft, plopping, and they all sat on the ground.

The stone unicorn followed Hongchen to the carriage, Hongchen patted it on the back, and it jumped and jumped on the carriage by itself.

If it weren't for the fact that this stone had been placed in front of his house for some days, I am afraid that Li Ruhui would have suspected that it was a living creature with a stone shell.

Hongchen smiled and came back to thank him.

Li Ruhui came back to his senses suddenly, and grabbed Hongchen's sleeve: "This young lady, when you encounter problems in the old man's family, you are not an ordinary person at first glance, no matter what, you must help the old man." ”

How could Hongchen refuse now!

No one bargained, so polite, of course Hongchen was more polite, just settle down in a few words, wait for her to settle down Qilin first, do some private things, and come back tomorrow.

Li Ruhui wanted this to live directly at home, but Hongchen politely declined, everyone said it to this point, and he was not reluctant, and more importantly, he had a little meager hope in his heart, and he was even more unwilling to leave a bad impression on the young lady in front of him.

Hongchen was really difficult to put her mind on the mansion of Master Li at this time, and since so many spirit masters couldn't see why, with her level, she really had to make some preparations before she dared to enter the door.

Negligence in this regard is a matter of human life.

Taking a deep breath, Hongchen touched the unicorn that had recovered to the white color of jade.

According to the method that I had memorized in my mind a long time ago and recited it a hundred times, I took cinnabar and gently put it in the eyes of the unicorn, and took a breath of aura in my mouth: "Show! ”

The unicorn spewed out a breath of mist as it landed.

The fog is getting thicker.

Hongchen's eyes appeared with all kinds of strange things, and the white unicorn opened its big mouth and sucked in a lot of strange objects.

I don't know how long it took, a light-colored figure lingered in front of the door of the Lin family's old house, and the unicorn licked him and closed his mouth.

Hongchen finally saw Xiao Mo's complete appearance.

As she imagined, no. Even better, although the color of the eyebrows is slightly dull, the shape of the eyebrows is very tough, a face is handsome to the point of compelling, and the facial features are flawless, even the pale face cannot hide his demeanor.

Hongchen instinctively stretched out his hand, but touched it, only to see a crack suddenly open in mid-air, and the wind was raging, as if it had a huge suction.

Xiao Mo struggled. Completely unable to resist. After rubbing it, he was attracted to it, Hongchen took a step forward and hit the car, and he didn't feel any pain. Through cracks. She seemed to see some strange light. There were also some huge iron boxes, Xiao Mo looked back blankly, his eyes were shining.

The fog gradually lifted. The image is distorted and fluctuated.

"Xiao Mo!"

Hongchen gritted his teeth, "The Lin family is very good!" ”

It's a pity that this is an image of the past, a long, long time ago, and Xiao Mo can't hear what she says.

As soon as the fog dispersed, it was an empty car wall, and Hongchen sat for a long time, not knowing whether to be happy or sad for a while.

I don't know if Xiao Mo will have any bad consequences if he doesn't enter reincarnation like this!

In a chaotic mood, Hongchen grabbed a cloak casually, covered the unicorn, and opened the Yujue space to buy two dozen charms, all of which were top-notch, and by the way, he put Qingfeng in his sleeve, packed all the books that could be used, called Tie Niu to let him carry it with him, and turned around to Li Zhai.

"Go around the village, go around."

The coachman answered, and drove the carriage slowly through the village.

Hongchen looked out of the car window.

Luo Niang has been following Hongchen, and she knows a little more about her: "How is the feng shui of this Lijiazhuang?" ”

"Well, that's good."

This is not a compliment, the mountains are continuous, located on the side of the capital, surrounded by living water, and the whole village is full of life.

"It doesn't look like there's going to be a problem."

Hongchen thought about it, and it seemed that seventy or eighty percent of them could be sure that something happened to the Li family, if it was not a coincidence, or that it was believed.

It's too far-fetched to say coincidences, what kind of coincidences can make a family have problems one after another?

"Let's go."

The front gate of the Li Mansion was neatly organized, and the two stone lions were neatly placed, and Hongchen didn't feel that he praised it: "The action efficiency is very high!" ”

Luo Niang took the notebook and wrote it down, and decided to go back and let the people in the family learn from others.

Now she is also Hongchen's housekeeper, although her own lady says what kind of secretary she is, I don't know what it means, it's about a mess of trivial things around the young lady, and she will help with it.

In fact, I have always felt that I am a very incompetent housekeeper, others say that she has a gentle temperament, to put it bluntly, she has no characteristics at all, unlike Xiao Yan, she is so ruthless, her learning ability is average, and she is often taught by the young lady hand-in-hand, so that she can barely support it, but she knows that she does all this very reluctantly.

was originally an ordinary woman, before she was with Miss, she didn't even know much of a word, and she was used to it at home, even if she was tortured later, she didn't develop a tenacious temperament.

Sometimes, she felt that Xiao Yan was a little more majestic.

But Hongchen is that she is steady, stable, and will never make her own decisions at any time, although she is not too qualified, but since it is the order of the young lady, she still did it hard.

Luo Niang never said it in her mouth, but she is the most confused of the girls these days.

Now that the young lady has become the county lord, in the county lord's mansion, the inner government will naturally send palace people, Liu Erliu is old, and now he has begged the young lady, and in the future, he will take care of the small Zhuangzi that the young lady has purchased in Beijing to support the elderly.

The kitten and the fox are now studying hard, and what they want to do in the future have been planned for a long time. Just like the kitten said, they want to learn literature and martial arts, and they will also study for the imperial examination in the future.

But what about her, she studied in the women's school step by step, and planned to set up a female household, and since then she has been doing business, doing these jobs that the young lady can easily find to replace even if she doesn't use her?

In the blink of an eye, Luo Niang swept away the dark thoughts that popped up in her mind from time to time, and she had long been used to it and didn't take it seriously, and beckoned Tie Niu to call the door.

After a while, Tie Niu turned around and helped Hongchen get out of the car.

At the gate of the Li Mansion stood a fat steward with a beard, who looked like Maitreya Buddha, but his face was cold, high up, and he looked Hongchen up and down a few times with slanted eyes.

"That's you? Looking for our master? ”

Luo Niang frowned.

Hongchen held his chin and leaned against the car door. Handed over to Tie Niu to deal with, Tie Niu said angrily: "Your lord invited us to come." ”

He didn't say much, but gently, as soon as his voice passed, the steward instantly felt deaf, pouted, didn't say anything more, turned around and said: "Come in first and wait, the master is out, I don't know when I will return." ”

Luo Niang was a little unhappy. But they still got in. The main thing is that her own lady will take back the unicorn smoothly, and it is not good to give face to the owner.

Follow the housekeeper to a very remote, dilapidated house. The butler said coldly, "You stay here." Don't run around. I'm going to find our lord. ”

Luo Niang: "......"

The house is dark and dirty, it looks like it hasn't been cleaned up for half a year, and the place is also in the northwest. It's very remote.

Tie Niu opened the door and sat on the threshold, Hongchen and the others found a chair, wiped it and sat down, and as soon as they sat down, the chair was crooked and clicked.

The chair leg was actually broken.

Hongchen: "......"

Luo Niang was angry, although she was kind to people on weekdays, but someone snubbed their young lady like this, it was absolutely unbearable, she walked to the door in two steps, and said angrily to the maid who had not swept the yard outside: "This is your hospitality?" ”

The maid looked up in confusion and smiled: "This is serving tea." ”

She threw down her broom, and in a moment brought a pot of tea.

The tea is not bad, warm, not particularly hot to the touch, not cold, a look at the tea, although not very good, but not that kind of scum.

The little maid poured a glass for everyone very attentively, but Hongchen only took it, did not drink it, shook it, and raised his hand to the little maid's mouth: "You drink it, please." ”

The other party was stunned for a moment, and shook his hand again and again: "Then how can it be done?" By all means, you are distinguished guests, I ......"

"Iron Bull."

Hongchen shouted, "Feed her tea." ”

Tie Niu was very obedient, strode over, picked up the teapot directly, he was very big, full of oppression, as soon as he got closer, the little girl turned pale with fright, and said sharply: "What are you doing!" ”

Before he finished speaking, he let Tie Niu jam her neck, coo, and pour tea into her mouth.

The girl's face turned green, and as soon as Tie Niu let go, she threw herself on the ground and vomited, screaming intermittently: "...... You wait! Wait for me! ”

Hongchen sighed and shrugged: "Sorry, we don't have time to wait, let's go." ”

She took the lead in standing up and led Luo Niang and Tie Niu out of the door, Tie Niu also closed the door directly, chopped an arm-thick branch with his hand, and plugged the door shut, so anxious that the little girl inside screamed.

But they ignored it, and went straight out of the gate, and the people outside all bowed their heads, no one spoke, and they didn't see anything.

Hongchen walked to the front of the car, glanced at the horse grass placed in front of the horse, sneered, and turned his head to see a small guy holding his stomach not far away, covered with cold sweat, obviously let the horse kick when feeding the horse.

"The medical expenses will be for your young lady."

Hongchen shook his head and went straight to the car.

At this time, the coachman who hurried over from the outside did not look very good, Hongchen glanced at him: "Okay, people have calculations, how can you prevent it?" Walk. ”

The group drove away in a car.

Luo Niang bit her lip, and there was a burst of anger in her heart.

Hongchen was also angry, she was here to help, but as soon as she came, she was treated slowly, and she was also eviled, and no one could swallow her breath.

"Forget it, since people don't believe us, our business is done, let's go quickly, and strive to go before the honor guard arrives in Qixian."

Hongchen closed his eyes and said in a low voice, before the words fell, the cloak covered by the stone unicorn behind him suddenly shook and fell.

She turned her head, and saw that the big head of this unicorn seemed to be a little lower, and the spiritual power was emanated, and as far as she could see, this thing was like a living thing, sticking out its tongue vigorously, shaking its head, humming and chirping, looking almost like a puppy, and it seemed that it especially wanted to communicate with its owner.

"Tongue?"

Hongchen raised his eyebrows in surprise, took a closer look, reached out to break its head, touched his tongue, pulled it hard, and pulled out a nail from it.

For a moment, the Qilin seemed to squint in comfort.

"What is this? Who stayed? ”

Summer cicadas?

The black gas on the nail was entangled, Hongchen felt disgusted when he looked at it, took out the rune paper and wrapped it, wrapped it in seven or eight layers, and then found a peach box and stuffed it in.

She still doesn't know much about this knowledge, so she will go back and flip through the book, otherwise she will take it back and ask Master Yang, Master Guo, and those spirit masters.

The moment the nail was pulled out, not far away in the mountain col, a monk's face changed suddenly, and he exhaled and frowned: "The surname Li is where this is the master, and the soul nail was broken?" ”

Since midnight, he can't feel the situation of Li Mansion at all, no matter how he senses it, it is empty, and he doesn't notice it, but he can't be sure yet, but now that the soul nail is broken, he has a number in his heart.

Xia Cicada didn't pay much attention to it.

"Which of the missing spirit masters did you miss by mistake? It's okay, it's just that the surname Li senses that something is wrong, and he wants to doubt, and the one who suspects is also the original owner of the Qilin magic weapon, what are we afraid of! But since it's broken, I'll ask the senior brother to do it himself. (To be continued.) )
