According to the direction given by Yin Qianhua, Wen Xiaoyun rode his horse and groped forward.

I didn't go far before I encountered the fork in the road that Yin Qianhua said, turned left and entered, and a huge mansion suddenly broke into view.

The long gray brick courtyard wall covers almost the entire street, and in the center of the courtyard wall are two lacquered mahogany gates, in front of which stand two hydrangea lions of white marble.

Wen Xiaoyun led the horse and stood in front of the door, looking up at the two big characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing on the huge plaque in front of the door - Ning Mansion, and sighed secretly in his heart, he deserved to be the richest man in Yanzhou, luxurious and magnificent enough!

The gate was ajar, and a catcher was waiting in the door.

Eighteen or nineteen years old, not tall, not fat or thin, although he looks very passerby, his small smiling eyes are bright and bright.

He heard the sound and looked at it, and saw Wen Xiaoyun's eyes light up, and greeted him tentatively, "But the new scribe from the Yin Tuiguan Office?" ”

Wen Xiaoyun immediately took out the sign given by Yin Qianhua and held it in front of him, "Wen Xiaoyun, I was ordered to come here on business." ”

The catcher hurriedly ran out, took the reins in Wen Xiaoyun's hand, and led forward and said: "Clerk Wen, Yin Zhutou ordered early in the morning, so that the cat's ears are waiting for you here, so that I can tell you the progress of the case in advance." ”

Wen Xiaoyun waved her hand with a smile, "Brother Lao, I know everything at the temple fair, and now I want to ask what happened last night?" ”

"That's right, last night the kidnappers said that they wanted the Ning family to take out a thousand taels of silver and bury it under an old elm tree in the back mountain, and when they received the money, they would put the child back.

Yin Zhutou told the brothers to hide carefully, and surrounded the old elm tree tighter than an iron bucket, as long as someone came out to dig silver under the elm tree, they would never be able to run out of the circle!

Our prefect Wang also attaches great importance to this case, and has specially transferred many first-class officials to help with the ambush.

But who knew that the servants of the Ning family came back with a shovel and buried the silver and waited for a long time, and the young master of the Ning family ran back by himself. ”

Wen Xiaoyun, who was listening attentively, widened her eyes, "The child ran back by himself?" ”

The head of the catcher nodded like a rattle, "No, it's all bearded and tailed, and there is not even a single hair." Mrs. Ning cried at that time, touched her son and looked at it for a long time, and the grandfather of the Ning family remembered the 1,000 taels of silver under the tree, and even the servants could take care of the assignment, so he went straight to the old elm tree and dug it himself.

When I dug up, I only found an empty cloth bag, and all the silver in it was gone. ”

Wen Xiaoyun pinched her chin and thought, "Did the kid say anything?" ”

Catch quickly frowned and replied: "That doll doesn't know anything, only said that she slept and didn't see anyone." When he woke up, he found himself sitting in a carriage and was told by an old woman that he could go home. He got out of the car, ran out into the street for a while, and then ran into the house. ”

"Such an evil sect?" Wen Xiaoyun scratched her head and frowned.

"That's quite an evil sect," the more he talked, the more frightened he became, his face turned white, and he approached Wen Xiaoyun and asked in a low voice, "Everyone said that this case is not like a human being, but a ghost." ”

"The theory of ghosts and gods is still not credible," Wen Xiaoyun pulled back the topic in time, "Let's talk about the case, so now the richest man Ning and the prefect Wang are mainly anxious about the 1,000 taels of silver?" ”

"But no," said Zhu Kuai, "I lost a thousand taels of silver under my nose, and everyone had to be anxious." You must know that it is a big ingot, a hundred of them, but the weight of hundreds of catties! ”

The cat's ears caught the eyebrows and danced to describe the scene last night, Wen Xiaoyun's curiosity was also hung to the full, and nodded in agreement, "There are impossible details everywhere, and this case is really getting more and more mysterious." ”

"It's not just Xuanhu, it's not like his grandmother's thing is something that people can do at all," Zhu Kuai looked left and right, suddenly lowered his voice, and said to Wen Xiaoyun mysteriously, "Everyone in Ningfu has spread that this is a case done by evil ghosts and spirits." It is said that the Ning family started from scratch and became the richest man in Yanzhou overnight, all relying on a little monster turned into a gold ingot. ”

The corners of Wen Xiaoyun's mouth twitched slightly, and he just said that the theory of ghosts and gods is not enough, and even the little monsters will come out.

"Can ingots still turn into monsters?" She became more and more curious.

"But no," the cat's ears were lowered, and the people in Yanzhou Mansion knew this legend, and even the Ning family's own servants couldn't talk about it. They also said that the monsters are not kind, and they used to give you one, and they will get ten back later.

The Ning family has been beautiful for so long, and now it's time for the monsters to fight back. They all said that this thousand taels is just the beginning, and in the future, the Ning family will have a lot of money, and they are afraid that they will not be able to keep it. ”

Wen Xiaoyun's eyebrows jumped.

The more I hear about it, the weirder it gets.

However, she clearly remembered that Yunnan No. 10 said that this is a suspenseful and reasoning crime-solving comic world.

But any reasoning and crime-solving works with a little conscience will not appear in real elves and ghosts committing crimes, or split-personality disorders or anything.

But the comic world is not as reasonable as the real world, and the author here is not kind.

"Yunnan No. 10," she secretly summoned the space-time system in her brainwaves, "this suspenseful manga won't be low enough to use ghosts and gods to commit crimes to fool people, right?" ”

Yunnan No. 10 paused before he replied timidly, "In principle, every background question from now on needs to be exchanged for points. ”

Wen Xiaoyun was directly angry, "Exchange for your banana mallet!" Is this a charge issue? I went to the bookstore to buy a plastic comic, and the title and cover and the type of work are still for you to see, why can't you do it?! ”

"It makes sense~" Yunnan No. 10 paused again, "Answer the host, although this world is a little chaotic, it is still a serious suspense reasoning work, and it will not use ghosts and spirits or any other methods, so it is mysterious and foolish." ”

Wen Xiaoyun nodded with satisfaction, she was relieved now.

Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

Since it is not a ghost who committed the crime, then the suspect can only be a human.

It can be deduced logically if it is a person.

However, on the surface, Wen Xiaoyun didn't say anything about it, but patiently listened to the description of the cat's ears becoming more and more excited.

"By the way, Brother Catch Fast, when did the word of that ingots goblin get to our Yamen brothers?"

The cat's ears raised their hands and scratched their heads, looking at the sky and thinking hard, "When?" It seems to be—"

But before he could say the next words, a black shadow suddenly flew diagonally and slammed straight towards Wen Xiaoyun's left!
