But looking around rashly, there were no rules, and seeing that Qiling was still doing his best to tie the lantern, I hurriedly asked, "Brother Qiling, how did you know that Young Master Wu?" ”

Qilu tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Speaking of which, it's still the benefits brought by the business of the Yanyu Pavilion!" A few days ago, I took over the sale of the Yanyu Pavilion, made a lot of lanterns to hang in the Yanyu Pavilion, that day on the way home, somehow, actually encountered a ghost hitting the wall, how can not find the way home, go around, only saw this house, the door is still lit, so I dare to knock on the door, want to ask for directions.

The people in the house were very enthusiastic, and when they saw that Young Master Wu was also at the door, Young Master Wu saw me carrying the tools to make lanterns, and asked me where I came from, I said truthfully, I didn't want Wu Gongzi to be very happy, saying that I had also been to the Yanyu Pavilion, and praised the lanterns of the Yanyu Pavilion for doing well, and I also liked the lanterns very much, but I didn't want me to be the craftsman, isn't this the fate of heaven! This left me to make a few lanterns to enjoy, and these days he often taught me to come over to make lanterns and draw with him to enjoy the fun, but he is a really good customer. ”

Then Wu Gongzi is a frequent visitor to the Yanyu Pavilion? How come I never saw him once?

"Yes!" I hurriedly asked, "Then the son of the Wu family likes lanterns so much?" It's a good story to have a friendship because of the lantern! ”

"Don't dare to take it as a good story," Qiling smiled embarrassedly, and said: "Young Master Wu doesn't put on a show, he is very talkative, and even treats craftsmen like me very warmly, and it is the first time I have seen such an approachable young master." ”

"I see...... I looked at this solemn mansion again, and said, "Young Master Wu, their family seems to be a wealthy family!" By the way, Brother Qiling, have you seen the rest of this son's family? ”

Qiqi shook his head: "I've never seen it, I'm here to make lanterns, so it's naturally not rude to be rude elsewhere." ”

At this time, the little maid who had just delivered the tea came again, collected the remaining tea and snacks, I helped clean it up, and asked casually: "Sister, it's hard work, you are alone back and forth, you are really busy." ”

The little girl smiled: "It's not the right time for you to come, there are naturally few people during the day, and at night, it's lively!" ”

I wondered, "Why are there so many people at night?" ”

The little girl asked me, but she was stunned, and then patted her head with a sudden realization: "Oh, my brain, I forgot that you are ...... I've been busy these days, and you guys haven't said it. ”

I asked, "Sister, why are you so busy?" If it's a trivial matter for a little girl, Mei Cai can help. ”

The little girl smiled: "It's not, it's just that the master is busy with official business these days, and there are guests who come to the door from time to time." ”

"Official business?" I hurriedly asked, "Is Master Wu an official?" “

The little girl hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "It can't be said that it is being compiled, but when it comes to rights, it can be regarded as it!" ”

It turned out to be a powerful family, but how could this powerful family steal something from the imperial historian's house to make a gift with these seven chaffs? I was puzzled, so I said, "But it's really disrespectful, but I don't know what kind of official you are talking about?" ”

The little girl smiled: "It was elected to manage public security, although it has no official title." But the people around him all respect the master, and if there is anything, they always come to ask the master what he means. ”

The more I listened, the more confused I became, are there any officials like this?

As he was talking, he suddenly shouted outside: "Hurry up!" Come on! There was a fire! ”

When the little girl heard this, her face immediately changed, and I and Qiqi were also frightened, how could this good and dignified person actually catch fire?

"Huh?" We hurriedly ran to the outside of the crescent gate, only to see a few withered old servants running to tell each other: "Go find the young master and the master!" ”

"Teach people to put out fires! Let's put out the fire! ”

I saw that the courtyard was deep, and there was actually billowing smoke, and the flames spread rapidly, and the momentum was very great, and the house became like a fire.

The little girl didn't care about calling us, and she didn't know where to go in a panic, and when she saw this, she didn't say a word, and hurriedly followed to fight the fire, but in this huge house, she couldn't even find a well. Seven Fish was anxious, and took me around to find a well, but in a panic, I didn't pay attention, and I was actually separated from Seven Fish.

I was in a hurry to become an ant on a hot pot, and when I saw the fire in the house, I didn't know how to escape, so I had to find a direction that was not surrounded by flames and rushed in.

But seeing that there was also a long corridor inside, and there was no fire on the other side of the corridor, I hurriedly ran over, only to hear a loud bang behind me, and a beam fell from above, blocking the corridor behind me, I quickly quickened my pace and rushed out in the fire.

At the end of the cloister was a small courtyard, but unlike the crowd of people, it was still silent and unmoved, and I hurriedly shouted: 'Is there anyone?' It's a fire! It's a fire! Let's get up and put out the fire! ”

But no one answered, I don't know how to get out of this tortuous courtyard, the way back has long been blocked by the fire, I can't help but have a headache, listening to the sound of the fire behind me, and I am worried about whether the people in the house and the house escaped from the fire, and a desperate one, so I had to look for the door along the courtyard to see if it can lead to the outside.

The east gate of the courtyard followed the half-burned corridor that I had just run over, and I followed the road into the main room, trying to find the back door to get out, but as soon as I entered the main house, I was taken aback, only to see that this room was full of countless white lanterns, this is strange, could it be that Wu Gongzi made it himself? No matter how much you like lanterns, you can't help but go too far, right?

I picked one up casually, but I couldn't help but be frightened, only to see that the back of the white lantern was a huge "lay" word, isn't this a lantern used in funeral white things?

I opened them one by one, and sure enough, they were all the same lanterns of the dead.

These lanterns look at my back hair, Wu Gongzi, what kind of person is it? I walked around the main room with a full stomach full of suspicions, only to find a back door behind the mountain of lanterns, and busily opened the back door to find a way out.

There was a small hall at the back door, and I searched for the door to get out, but I couldn't see a single person. I only feel that the architecture of this place is painted with gold and emerald, very luxurious, dripping eaves, carved tiles, all exquisite is not like a thing in the world, and I feel more and more that it is a pity to burn this fire.

As I walked, I faintly heard the sound of someone talking, and I was overjoyed, and quickly chased after the voice, full of joy for the rest of my life.
