There was no one in the room, and it was eerily quiet.

As soon as the two of them stepped through the door, the door behind them shut.

Li Duan stretched out his hand and shook Lu Guanlan's hand.

Lu Guanlan was stunned for a moment, only to feel that the temperature of his palms became hot.

At this moment, I heard a dense and rapid sound of footsteps, which seemed to surround the room.

Li Duan smiled suddenly, turned his head to Lu Guanlan and said, "I never thought that the Xu Gongzi I found was really not a fuel-efficient lamp." ”

Lu Guanlan frowned, and withdrew his hand from Li Duan's hand, "What does the general think we should do now?" ”

She is naturally not afraid, but she is afraid that things will make a big mess, and she will not say whether it will end well or not, if it spreads, her goal will not be achieved.

Li Jian knew what Lu Guanlan was worried about, and said with a smile: "You trust me? ”

Lu Guanlan raised his eyes, "How can you not believe the general's words." ”

Li Duan hooked the corners of his lips, grabbed her body, and stepped back.

I saw a sharp arrow flying out of the door, and with a whoosh, it grazed past Lu Guanlan's ear.

"In the sound of footsteps just now, I could hear that this group of people had taken weapons, and they were really swords and crossbows," Li Duan said, hugging Lu Guanlan's waist and dodging to the side, dodging another flying arrow.

Lu Guanlan was very calm on his face, but he was quickly thinking about countermeasures in his mind.

At this time, Lu Guanlan turned his head, and under the light from the window, there was a little light on the wall inside the room.

She felt that something was wrong, so she said to Li Duan: "General, let's go to that wall." ”

When Li Duan heard this, he hugged Lu Guanlan and rushed over.

When he arrived at the wall, Li Duan picked up the stool in the room to block the arrows, and Lu Guanlan leaned on the wall.

At that moment, there was a coughing sound from the other end.

Lu Guanlan suddenly understood, took a step back, and whispered to Li Duan: "This is a screen wall, and at that end, there should be someone who wants us to die today." ”

Only then did Li Duan remember that anyone who could secretly do this kind of business had a room with a screen wall, in order to secretly test people, or to eavesdrop on what others said important things.

Although he didn't know how Lu Guanlan saw it, he felt that this little girl really gave him a lot of surprises.

He pulled her back, pulled her into his arms, and protected her, saying, "Hide." ”

With that, he kicked the wall.

The screen wall was not strong, and it was kicked by Li Duan like this, and a hole was kicked out when he landed.

On the other side of the wall, there really is someone.

In addition to Xu Feng, who I saw last night, there was also a middle-aged man in the seat.

The two of them had no idea that the two who were supposed to be killed by random arrows in the next room would come here.

When Xu Feng saw Li Duan, his eyes widened, and he knelt down and begged for mercy: "My lord, spare my life!" Spare your life! Small ······ The small one is not intentional! The little ones are just! ”

The older man frowned, lifted Xu Feng on the ground, and shouted, "Ridiculous! How can you kneel down to anyone at will! ”

When Xu Feng heard this, he hurriedly shrank behind the man.

Lu Guanlan took a closer look, Xu Feng and this person have similar eyebrows and eyes, and it is not difficult to see that this man is Xu Feng's father, Xu Zhongping.

Li Duan was about to speak, but Lu Guanlan reached out and pulled the corner of his clothes.

Li Jian immediately kept silent.

Lu Guanlan looked left and right, and saw that in addition to these two, there were only three or two maids in the room.

Turning his head, he sat down, looked at the older man, and said, "Master Xu is doing this today, so he is not afraid that the matter will be exposed and he will end up in the end of raiding the family and destroying the clan?" ”

Xu Zhongping snorted coldly, "I heard Feng'er come back last night and say, I thought you were just a coward, and he was just bluffed by you, I never thought that when I saw you today, you still have some ability." ”

Lu Guanlan smiled, "In that case, is Master Xu willing to sit down and have a few words with us?" ”

Xu Zhongping waved his hand and motioned for the maids to retreat.

The noise next door that was still noisy also stopped in a moment.

Xu Feng trembled on the side, and didn't dare to say a word from beginning to end.

Originally, the father wanted to lead the two people into the room, and only after they were completely shot and killed, did they drag them out and bury them.

The father expected that since these two people had done such a thing, they would definitely not explain their whereabouts to the people next to them.

At that time, there will be no proof of death, and in a few days, no matter what happens, they will not be able to be found.

Although he had some concerns, thinking that it was the first time that their family had done such a fatal thing, but when he thought of what he had done before, if it was shaken out, it would be a disaster for the whole family.

This is where it has to be done.

"Who are you?" Xu Zhongping had a cold face, and looked up and down at Lu Guanlan and Li Duan.

Lu Guanlan smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Li Duan.

As soon as Li Duan sat down, he saw Lu Guanlan turn his head to look at him, he was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

After sitting down, he raised his head and said, "I don't know if Master Xu knows, General Li Duan?" ”

When Xu Zhongping heard this, he was startled.

looked at the two people in front of him again, but he couldn't guess for a while what these two people had to do with the general.

Seeing that Xu Zhongping was silent, Li Duan continued: "I, I am the lieutenant under General Li, no, we are both here to do things for the general." ”

When Xu Zhongping heard this, he seemed to be a little disbelieving, and asked: "Since it is a general, why don't you come here without a military order, and let the two of you find Xiao'er and threaten Xiao'er?" ”

Li Duan smiled and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Isn't this the same general, I'm afraid of startling the snake. Moreover, the reason why Master Xu is like this today must have been because he listened to the villain's slander. Let's collect evidence of that villain's crime now, if the marching order really comes here, Master Xu thinks, can you still escape? ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Feng.

This glance made Xu Feng drowsy.

Last night the man threatened him that he was a gangster in the black market, and if he did not hand over his things, he would gouge out his eyes and sell him to work as a coolie on the black market.

He was also very frightened, so he came back and told his father.

My father told Lin Wanghai about this overnight, and this is what happened today.

Xu Zhongping frowned, looking at Li Duan but refused to speak.

At this time, Lu Guanlan said: "This business is nothing more than begging for a living on the knife edge, is it possible, Master Xu really wants to do it for a lifetime?" Are you not afraid of coming, or can't you keep the foundation of your family? ”

When Xu Zhongping heard this, he looked at Lu Guanlan, "Why should I believe your words?" ”

When he heard his son come back last night to talk about it, he felt that the two of them were acting in such a strange way that it was impossible to guess what the purpose was.

Hearing these two say this today, what does it mean is that all they want is the lives of the people behind them?

But for some reason, he couldn't fully believe it.

Lu Guanlan knew that Xu Zhongping didn't believe it, so he took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Zhongping, "Master Xu, take a look at this, and then think about it." ”

Xu Zhongping glanced at Xu Feng on the side.

Xu Feng immediately stepped forward, took the paper roll with trembling hands, and handed it to Xu Zhongping.

Xu Zhongping took a look, and his face suddenly turned bad.

This is the evil thing that Lin Wanghai did on weekdays.

In this way, this Lin Wanghai is really ······

Thinking of this, Xu Zhongping had already made up his mind in his heart, and turned back to Xu Feng and said, "Feng'er, take the two of you to check the account book." ”

Xu Feng also understood what his father meant, and was busy with the chief's orders.

said to Lu Guanlan and Li Duan: "The two of you come with me." ”

Lu Guanlan stood up, smiled at Xu Zhongping, turned his head and nodded at Li Quan.

The two followed Xu Feng downstairs, walked from the courtyard, and went to another building.

Only this time, instead of going upstairs, it was going downstairs.

There's a dark room downstairs, and I don't know what I've put there.

Although Lu Guanlan has always been bold, Li Duan still wanted to protect her, so he pulled Lu Guanlan behind him, and he walked in front of her.

Xu Feng took the two of them to a house, pushed open the door, and there were boxes all over the ground.

"In this box, there are the things sent by Lin Wanghai," Xu Feng said, opening the boxes one by one.

In the box, there were many gold and silver utensils, and there were many blue and white porcelain vases, which were all priceless objects.

When Lu Guanlan saw this, he couldn't help but sigh.

This Lin Wanghai is really bold enough, he dares to do such a business, and he is not afraid of the Nine Clans.

Thinking about it, Lu Guanlan turned around, "These things, I'm afraid you pawnshops don't dare to register them." ”

Xu Feng seemed to have thought that Lu Guanlan would say this, so he walked to a box in the room, opened the box, and took out a few account books from it.

Then, he walked back to Lu Guanlan's side and presented the account book, "Little boy, look." ”

Lu Guanlan took it, opened it and looked at it carefully.

The more I watched, the more frightened I became.

This Lin Wanghai is really not afraid of death, so many objects are stolen like this, and I don't know what will happen to me in the future.

Lu Guanlan raised his eyes, "If you write it down like this, aren't you afraid that when the imperial court audits the accounts, you will find it?" ”

Xu Feng said: "We are in the pawnshop business, and every family has a dark account. The account book on this face is checked casually, no matter how it is, it can't be found. But this secret account, then record all the secret deeds. ”

Lu Guanlan closed the account book and asked, "But if you write it down like this, aren't you afraid that this dark account will also be checked?" ”

Xu Feng shook his head with a smile, "The little boy doesn't know anything, not to mention how many people know about this secret account, if he doesn't do this business, how can he know." Even if someone knows, you see it, this is not an easy place to come. ”

Lu Guanlan looked at Xu Feng as if he didn't care about himself, and suddenly felt funny, "You write it down, not only to clarify the list, but also to let the other party have a handle in your hands, if it is really found out at that time, you are not as good as the culprit, right?" ”

Xu Feng arched his hand and smiled: "What the little boy said is extremely true. ”

Lu Guanlan turned his head to look at Li Duan.

Li Duan had a gentle smile in his eyes, and then turned around and raised his hand.

Before Xu Feng could react, the person had already fallen.

When Lu Guanlan saw him lying on the ground, he asked, "Are you dead?" ”

Li Duan shook his head, "I know the severity of my attack, but I fainted." ”

Lu Guanlan nodded and put away the account books, "When you go out later, will you bring someone to clean up here?" ”

Li Duan said: "Naturally." ”

The reason why they came to check the account books first, one was that they were afraid that the Xu family would hide the account books or simply destroy them. Second, if you don't want to make a big move and let people spread it, then Lin Wanghai will take the opportunity to escape.

At this time, Li Duan seemed to remember something and asked, "There is something I am curious about. ”

Lu Guanlan raised his eyes, "What's the matter?" ”

"At first, I knew that the Wang family was worried about your family property, and you did this just to blackmail Mrs. Wang, but now I look at it, you seem to be determined to punish Lin Wanghai," Li Duan said.

Lu Guanlan's eyes suddenly flashed in front of him, in the dilapidated house, the old man's begging.

Then he said: "The general is right, I am indeed determined to punish Lin Wanghai." ”
