Xu Zhong thought of various ways to test Shao Zifeng, Mo Yuan, and Yin Xiyun, but unfortunately before he could act, he was entangled in another matter.

It was already late at night, and after a busy day, Xu Zhong finally had time to have a good dinner, and he planned to wash up and sleep quickly after dinner.

He is old, although his body is hard, but after all, he still has to serve old age, and after a day of tossing, he has already had back pain and exhaustion.

Halfway through his meal, a servant trotted over in a panic, shouting loudly as he ran: "Big housekeeper, it's not good, it's not good......

Xu Zhong felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the porcelain bowl in his hand fell to the ground in shock, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

He hurriedly stood up, still holding the food in his mouth that he didn't have time to swallow, and then the servant crawled to his side and grabbed his trouser legs.

Xu Zhong reluctantly swallowed the food in his mouth, and asked with a dark face, "Hurry up, what happened this time?" ”

The servant was frightened by his gloomy appearance, and he couldn't speak anymore, "Big ...... Big...... The Great Butler, Fire ...... Fire ......"

Xu Zhong listened impatiently, grabbed the collar of the servant, pulled him up, and forced him to just look at his own eyes, "Tell me clearly, what fire?" ”

"Big housekeeper, the granary in the north of the city is on fire."

"What?"

Xu Zhong's voice was like a bell, which shook the servant's ears and made his ears numb.

The servant boldly said, "It's true, the granary is on fire, and it has been burning for a whole hour, and the guards of the granary have all died inside, or the surrounding residents have seen the flames in the granary, so they have come to tell me kindly." ”

Xu Zhong's hand holding the servant suddenly lost his strength, and the whole person softened like a puddle of you, and the servant hurriedly helped him up and said, "Big housekeeper, are you okay?" ”

Xu Zhong shook his head and quickly stabilized his mind, after all, he was a person who had seen strong winds and waves, even if he was surprised, he should not be so shocked.

Xu Zhong asked as calmly as possible: "Tell me, how is the fire now?" ”

"I can't control it, and it is estimated that the three granaries will be reduced to ashes."

"What? Three granaries? ”

Xu Zhong drank violently, his fists were tightened, the green tendons were bulging, his whole face was completely drunk, and his criss-crossing face became extremely hideous.

The servant trembled and cautious, not knowing whether to continue or not.

Xu Zhong closed his eyes with difficulty and said to the servant: "After saying it happily at one time, stop spitting and spitting, what else is going on?" ”

"I didn't ...... Without. ”

"Did this incident alarm the owner?"

"No, you have instructed, if there is anything in the village, don't disturb the owner in advance, and report it directly to you, so as soon as Xiao heard about it, he came to report it to you as soon as he heard it."

After hearing this, Xu Zhong ignored the servant and left the room straight, and when he was halfway there, he met Yin Lingyue and Mo Yuan, who were out for a walk at night.

"Steward Xu, where do you want to go in such a hurry?"

Although Yin Lingyue wanted to pretend that he didn't see Xu Zhong, they met head-on, and it was too late to dodge, not to mention that Yin Lingyue was still standing in the middle of the road with a Mo Yuan.

Xu Zhong saw Yin Lingyue, and the terrifying gloom on his face disappeared in an instant, "Miss Yue'er, come out for a walk at night?" ”

"yes, I ate a little too much for dinner, so I just walked around and ate it."

Even if Yin Lingyue tried her best to make her words appear calm, Xu Zhong still noticed Yin Lingyue's alienation from him, but this was reasonable, when he saw Yin Lingyue for the first time, Xu Zhong knew that Yin Lingyue was an emotional person, she would firmly remember the good of others to her, but she would also firmly remember the bad of others to her.

"The old slave still has something to do, I'll talk to you another day."

Xu Zhong is anxious now, he doesn't have so much time to chat with them here, but unfortunately Yin Lingyue doesn't plan to let him go, Xu Zhong's whole person is in a hurry, it is obvious that something big has happened, which can make this old guy who is used to seeing strong winds and waves panic, it can be seen that what happened this time must not be simple.

"Steward Xu, what is it that makes you have to go out so late?"

"I can't say this for a while, but when the old slave comes back, I will naturally explain it to you."

Yin Lingyue nodded and said, "Okay, let's go with you." ”

"This ......" Xu Zhong didn't expect Yin Lingyue to say this, and he couldn't guess what this girl wanted to do, after all, this little girl was very weird, and she couldn't look at her with normal thinking at all.

Xu Zhong knew that Yin Lingyue's girl was abrasive, so in order not to waste time again, he had to nod and agree.

When answering the north of the city, the fire in the granary was still very strong, the fire was raging, and the fire reflected half of the sky, and the surrounding crowd surrounded the place with three layers and three layers outside, after all, such a shocking scene is not easy to see.

Three huge granaries, these are filled with the grain that Menghui Villa has hoarded for nearly five years, for such a wealthy Menghui Villa, there are countless worlds, and the grain produced in these places in the past five years is enough for the residents of the entire city to eat for eight years!

The ground was full of messy buckets, and the water from the buckets soaked the ground, obviously the people around him were sparing no effort to put out the fire, and the guards who were transferred back to the villa were all standing around Xu Zhong, and no one dared to say a word forward.

Yin Lingyue looked at the scene of the fire in front of her, and was quite shocked, how could this good one have a fire, it can burn for so long, how much food should be hoarded?

"Xiao Yuan, I didn't expect it to be like this, although I did have the posture of watching the show just now, and I wanted to see what kind of big deal that villain Xu was doing, but I ......"

Mo Yuan covered Yin Lingyue's mouth and said softly: "Yueyue, this matter has nothing to do with us, and you haven't done anything, so you don't need to make yourself unhappy about these things." ”

Yin Lingyue nodded, took down Mo Yuan's hand that was covering her lips with her little hand, and then held it, "Xiao Yuan, why did you say that it caught fire in such a good way?" Since it is all the granaries of the dream back to the villa, the guards should not be ordinary, and no one has a chance to set fire? You say, could it be an accident? ”

Mo Yuan shook his head, "Yueyue, listening to the people around me, this fire started all at once, and after it burned, it was out of control, and there was no chance to put out the fire, and the people guarding the granary were all buried in the fire, and no one was spared, in this case, it is only possible that someone deliberately set the fire." ”

Unconsciously, Xu Zhong had already come to them, "What Mo Gongzi said is right, someone definitely deliberately set the fire, and the guards guarding our granary are all carefully selected by the village, and it is impossible to be so careless." ”

Yin Lingyue didn't understand a little, "Steward Xu, but how did the arsonist make the fire in the three granaries uncontrollable in an instant, and still trap all the guards guarding it?" ”

Xu Zhong shook his head, but his heart was thinking quickly.

The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, it was very likely that he could easily enter the granary, sprinkle oil on it without being detected, and then set it on fire by surprise......

Seal!

Those people can only do it if they hold the documents that should have the owner's seal.

Xu Zhong secretly screamed in his heart, and he didn't pay attention to what was here, and hurriedly rushed back to Menghui Villa, if it was later, something big would happen.
