Chapter 203: A Trustworthy Cripple

When Qin Mu heard the news, he frowned slightly and glanced at the Yankang National Master beside him. Yankang Guoshi showed a sad look and said, "I should go to the Zhenbei Wangfu to mourn." ”

Qin Mu said in a low voice: "National Teacher, why would the King of Zhenbei rebel?"

"He is not anti-emperor, he is against me for the sake of his spiritual family. ”

National Master Yankang said softly: "My power is too great, making him uneasy, thinking that I will definitely overthrow the rule of the Ling family. You're right, it's time for me to start a family. If you have heavenly principles, you want people. ”

Qin Mu's face was strange.

It is somewhat absurd that a person like Yankang Guoshi will start a family, but it is about to happen.

"I'm going to go back to the house first and change into plain clothes. The king of Zhenbei has meritorious service to the country, although he does not agree with my behavior, but he is a respectable person who must be worshipped. ”

National Master Yankang parted from him and said, "When I arrive in the capital, I don't need you to worry about my injuries." ”

Qin Mu nodded, Yankang Guoshi was seriously injured by a sneak attack in the past, but his injuries had already healed, indicating that there must be a miracle doctor by his side, and when he arrived in the capital, there was no need for Qin Mu to treat his injuries.

When Yankang returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, he suddenly became alert, did not go to the main gate, jumped directly into the mansion, looked around, and saw that all the forbidden seals in the mansion were there.

He still didn't slacken, and said in a deep voice: "Fu Lao?

There was still no sound coming, and the National Teacher's Mansion was surprisingly quiet.

Yankang Guoshi walked inside, and when he came to the hall, he saw several servants and guards of the National Teacher's Mansion tied up tightly, stacked on top of each other.

Yankang Guoshi frowned, and then saw Fu Yuanqing, the little poison king Fu Yuanqing was stripped naked, tied up with five flowers, and hung on the top of the hall, his tongue stuck out, and a golden rope was tied to his tongue, and a big iron tuo was hung under the golden rope, I don't know how heavy.

Yankang Guoshi frowned, and the sword light flashed at his fingertips, cutting the golden rope and cutting the rope on his body. Fu Yuanqing fell, and the fall was not light, and Yankang Guoshi realized that his entire cultivation had been sealed, and even the divine treasure in his body had been sealed, and he couldn't exert any cultivation.

Master Yankang unlocked his seal, and also unsealed the seals of the other servants and guards, and said with a deep face: "What's the matter?"

"I don't know. ”

Fu Yuanqing shook his head and said ashamedly: "I didn't see anything, so I was sealed, and then I was hung up, and I still didn't see anything, and my tongue was pulled out, and a big iron tuo was hung, and I couldn't call for help!"

"Master, is our mansion haunted?"

The servants were also horrified, and said, "I didn't see anything either, and then they were stacked on top of each other and couldn't move!"

"Haunted?"

Master Yankang shook his head and said, "It's not a ghost. It's that the man is so fast, so fast that you can't even see him. I know who this man is, and he broke into my house to retrieve his leg while I was away. If I had predicted, the treasury where I had stored my treasures would have been empty. ”

He led everyone to the storehouse, but saw that the seal on the storehouse was still there, and it had not been touched.

Fu Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "National Teacher, you are wrong, the seal is still there, it is estimated that the thief can't unlock your seal, so he hasn't touched the things in the warehouse." ”

National Master Yankang sighed and said, "The phantom is invisible, stealing the sky and changing the sun, why do you need to break the seal? He can pass through the seal directly without touching the seal." The storeroom was indeed empty. ”

The people did not believe.

Master Yankang opened the seal, pushed the door in, and saw that the house with all kinds of treasures was empty and clean.

And on the wall facing the door, there should have been a painting, which was the sword god's back sword picture painted by the prince of Tiantu Kingdom back then, and this picture is gone.

Instead, there was a crooked and ugly word: "National teacher, I took my leg, I smiled at the treasures you collected, and I took good care of your servants, don't worry." By the way, I slept in your bed, and after waking up, I pulled a bunch of poop on your bed, and made you a pot of fragrant tea in the study. We've cleared our grievances, so you don't have to thank me!"

Yankang Guoshi's face was gloomy, he hurriedly turned around and came to the bedroom, lifted the quilt, the smell was stinking, hurriedly covered his nose, and waved his hand: "Fu Lao, throw it out, throw it out!"

Fu Lao hurriedly wrapped the quilt, and the mattress was also rolled up, and the whole bed was still a stench. Fu Lao said: "Master, do you want to throw away this bed too?"

"Throw it away!"

Yankang Guoshi waved his hand and walked quickly to the study, there was a commotion in the study, and the yellow, orange and orange bubble in the teapot was obviously not tea.

Yankang Guoshi rolled up his sleeves, and sent the teapot out of the window along with the teacup, his face was pale: "Bastard, it's okay to take away your own legs, and you are still eating, drinking, and sleeping in my house, which is bad for me! Fu Lao, prepare some tea sets and bedding." ”

Fu Lao hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, there is not much money in the family......

Yankang Guoshi was slightly stunned, and said in a deep voice: "The emperor's reward will not come down in a few days, and my monthly reward will be issued once a month, but it will not end until the beginning of the month." This month's money is gone?"

Fu Lao said: "The lord took most of the money with him on this trip, and the money left behind, the prince and minister will give some small gifts for his birthday, and Tian Ding will also give some." A few days ago, the queen mother in the palace celebrated her birthday, and the small preparation was still shabby in the palace. ”

Yankang Guoshi had a headache and said, "The king of Zhenbei is here, and he still needs to prepare some courtesies." Is there really no money at home? What else can I pawn?"

"This ......"

Fu Lao hesitated for a moment and did not answer. Yankang Guoshi looked around, and saw that although the home was not small, there were few pieces of furniture, and he couldn't take out a few things that could be pawned.

He has always felt that playthings are demoralized, so everything is simple in food and clothing, and there are no antiques. The things he collected were often strange, such as the lame god's legs, the paintings of the prince of Tiantu Kingdom, and so on, and these things were stolen by the god.

"Can I go and make an advance?"

Fu Lao said: "Master, don't want to lose face?"

Master Yankang hesitated, "Can I borrow some?"

Fu Lao shook his head and said: "In the recent war, those who are good friends with the master are all out of the army, not at home, and the master has borrowed it many times, and he has never returned it, so he will be gossiped." If the head of the house is not at home, I will borrow money, and who will borrow it? Unless the master himself comes forward. ”

Master Yankang groaned and said, "My painting skills are acceptable, I can make paintings to sell in exchange for some money." ”

Fu Lao said: "Is the old man signed?"

Yankang Guoshi shook his head: "Sign my name, and whoever buys my painting is bribing me, not signing." ”

Fu Lao shook his head and said, "Then the master's paintings can't be sold." ”

Yankang Guoshi was angry: "How do you know that you can't sell it? I collect the paintings of the prince of Tiantu Kingdom, and I have copied them many times, although I dare not say that they can be compared to the painting saint, but it is okay, right?"

"Master, what kind of place is the capital? Famous people are like carp crossing the river, but how many of them can make money from calligraphy and painting? Most of them are so hungry that they are full of bones. How do you think the old man's painting skills are better than theirs?"

Fu Lao said: "It's the master's disciples who can lend money to the master." ”

"Borrowing money from my apprentice? I can't pull this face. ”

National Master Yankang suddenly remembered Qin Mu and said with a smile: "I know who has money and can borrow it." He was generous, and he often used money to buy me medicine, otherwise my little money would have been spent long ago. He is not in the court, and it is not a shame to borrow money from him. I'm going to borrow money, and you're waiting for me here. ”

Qin Mu returned to the Taixue Shiziju, and as soon as he walked into the Shiziju, he smelled the fragrance of the elixir, which seemed to be wafting from his own courtyard, and couldn't help but wonder.

There are special miscellaneous servants in the scholar's residence, although it is a miscellaneous servant, but each miscellaneous servant often goes to the palace to listen to lectures, so the strength of cultivation is really not weak. In the history of Tai Academy, there are many miscellaneous servants who have cultivated extraordinary skills, jumped from miscellaneous servants to scholars, promoted to knights, and became generals in famous towns.

There are miscellaneous townsmen guarding the soldiers' residences, and basically no outsiders can sneak in.

Qin Mu took Long Qilin and Hu Ling'er into his courtyard, only to see that there were large bags of medicinal herbs piled up in the courtyard, as well as things like medicine stoves and medicine tripods.

The medicine tripod and the medicine furnace are extraordinary, and the texture of the imprint on them is extremely extraordinary, obviously it is a heavy treasure, and there is no need for the treasures that Qin Mu scavenged from the Loulan Golden Palace to be inferior!

One of the potters also had a leg in it, and an arm in the other.

Qin Mu was slightly stunned when he saw this leg and arm, and said to Hu Ling'er and Long Qilin: "You are waiting outside the courtyard, don't let people enter my house." ”

Fox Ling'er and Long Qilin got up and walked out of the yard, Qin Mu looked back and saw that Long Qilin squeaked the door frame, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said in his heart: "This guy has eaten fat these days, or it won't be long before he can break my door, and then he will have to change the door." ”

He opened the door of the hall and saw two half-aged men sitting there, the lame man neatly groomed, his hair shiny, the beard on his chin tied with a golden dangling rope, and his clothes very exquisite.

And Ma Ye sat opposite him, dressed in a green cloth shirt, not as fancy as the clothes of a lame man, and one sleeve hung down empty. He looked a little dusty, he should have just arrived, his sideburns were gray, and his hair was a little disheveled.

When the two saw Qin Mu walk in, the cripple showed a sincere smile, and Ma Ye's cold face also showed a hint of a smile.

"Master Ma, lame grandpa......"

Qin Mu was moved in his heart, and his eyes were slightly red: "Are you here to see me?"

"It's not. Ma Ye said.

Qin Mu's heart hurt a little, and he smiled lamely: "You are much more comfortable than us, let's come to see what you do? You were picked up by us, we will come all the way to see you? Don't be sentimental." ”

Qin Mu said angrily: "Just come to see me!"

The cripple shook his head and said, "I'm just here to ask you to help me connect my legs." Can you help me see if my leg is still alive?"

"No, I don't. ”

The cripple said angrily: "The stinky boy's wings are hard, we are not here to see you!"

Ma Ye coughed and said unhurriedly: "You didn't come to see him, why didn't you take your legs to the pharmacist, but came to him? Don't tease him, you look like you're about to cry." ”

"I didn't cry anymore. Qin Mu stiffened his neck and said.

"Alright, alright, don't be red-eyed, I'm here to see you. I just came back from the National Teacher's Mansion and lived there for a while, taking a few things with me. See that leg in the stove?"

The old man was triumphant: "My leg! I got it back from the National Teacher's Mansion, and the National Teacher had no way at all, and watched me take my leg!"

Qin Mu was silent for a moment, revealing a sincere smile: "Lame grandpa, the national teacher and I have just returned from other places, which national teacher is in the national teacher's mansion?"

The lame man stared at him, Qin Mu didn't let him go, and also stared back at him, the smiles on the faces of the two were almost the same, giving people a sense of trustworthiness, even if they stabbed them, they would still feel that they were very trustworthy.
