In the attic on the top floor of the Golden Scale Pavilion, an old man was sitting on a chaise longue by the window, silently watching the pedestrians passing by the street below.

A small servant came to the old man's ear and said softly: "Old lady, the shopkeeper is here." ”

The old man bowed slightly. The little servant retreated to the door, gently pushed the door open, and welcomed the shopkeeper Wu in.

"Old lady Rong. Shopkeeper Wu came to the old man's side lightly and bowed.

The old man motioned for Shopkeeper Wu to sit down and speak: "People, are they all gone?"

Shopkeeper Wu nodded: "He is in a hurry to recover the lost property, and his subordinates have no reason to stop him." However, his subordinates have ordered someone to secretly follow him, and it is believed that news will be transmitted back soon. ”

"Heh, he lost something, ......too?

The old man closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep. Shopkeeper Wu was not in a hurry, and sat silently aside, and the attic suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, the old man suddenly asked, "What do you think?"

"This matter is naturally intentional by one party, and the subordinates believe that Qiancao Pavilion is the most suspicious. ”

Shopkeeper Wu obviously had a draft, and immediately said: "The old lady of the Qian family wants to send Qian Lang to Tianforging Castle, in order to use the power of the castle lord to resist the annexation of Qiancao Pavilion. Qiancao Pavilion would not tolerate the Qian family engaging in these small actions behind their backs, so they would never want to see Qian Lang become a guest of Heavenly Forging Castle. And in order to achieve this goal, the easiest way for them is to take back the 36 weapons of Qiangusao. Without the assistance of Qian Lang, it is almost impossible to stand out in the selection of guest secretaries. The Qian family has no relationship with Tiandun Castle, so unless we are determined to tear our faces with Laneige, there is no reason to rob them of the Qian family's mining. ”

“...... Do you need to tell the old man about these obvious things?"

The old man snorted lightly and said, "What the old man is asking is, what do you think of that young man?"

Shopkeeper Wu was stunned. Recalling that before, when Ning Le was still repairing the mermaid waiter, the old man in front of him passed the word and ordered him to leave the young man surnamed Ning first no matter what.

Could it be that kid is more important than a piece of fat as big as the Qian family?

Seeing that the old man turned his head to stare at him, Shopkeeper Wu cleared his throat and hurriedly replied: "His subordinates have tested him several times, and judging by his expression, speech and demeanor, he can't see any problems for the time being. However, this son appeared as if out of thin air, it seemed that it was the first time he had come to Heavenly Forging Castle, and his origin had not yet been found. Doesn't it be better for his subordinates to be cautious about him?"

“...... The necessary caution is necessary, but there is no need to be too nervous. ”

The old man thought about it again, and then said slowly: "Such people are more reassuring than those whose backgrounds are too clean. ”

Shopkeeper Wu was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the old man meant.

At that time, the first time the door of Tianforge Fort was opened, welcoming talents from all over the world. The forces of all parties must be ready to move, those who want to connect with the four poles of the Yandao, those who want to plant eyeliner in the fort, and all kinds of purposes.

But at the same time, this event is sure to attract some old monsters who have lived in seclusion for many years. Or those disciples under them, who have not been walking around the world for a long time.

Like Ning Le, it is naturally more like the latter. Because people with innocent backgrounds are more likely to let people relax their vigilance. Those who have become obsessed will surely attract more attention.

And as long as it is a person who has attracted the attention of the Heavenly Forging Fort, even if he comes from the other three poles, with the ability of the Heavenly Forging Castle, it is not difficult to find some clues under careful inspection.

"According to the rules set before, this Ning Le has already qualified for the pre-recording of Keqing, and he is almost certain of his age. ”

Shopkeeper Wu suggested: "Should my subordinates immediately inform Steward Liu of Nachuanfang? When Na Ningle returns later, ask Steward Liu to contact him?"

"Tonight, after the Qian family juniors stirred up like this, someone stayed in the Tianzi No. 1 room, and I am afraid that the castle has already known about it. ”

The old man said slowly: "I guess at this moment, Xiao Liu is already on his way here. ”

Shopkeeper Wu bowed slightly, and was about to retire, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside the door, he couldn't help frowning, and shouted in a low voice: "What's the noise outside?"

The little guy from before hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Old lady, the shopkeeper." The brother who was sent out to 'protect' Ning Gongzi has returned. According to his statement, Ning Gongzi walked to the homestay area, turned around in the alleyway, and then suddenly disappeared near the inner wall of the east city. ”

"Huh, lost it?" shopkeeper Wu was stunned, and subconsciously looked at the old man in the recliner.

But the old man closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep again, and remained silent for a long time. It wasn't until Shopkeeper Wu couldn't help but speak again that the old man finally spit out three words: "Interesting......"

-----

Under the moonlight, the quiet B&B area outside the city of Tianduan Castle.

Unlike the commercial districts, which are bustling with lights all night, the people of Castle turn off their lights and rest soon after dark. At this moment, the B&B area has fallen into a deep sleep, and only a few windows are still faintly lit.

At the base of a wall, a figure detached from the shadows.

"Whew, finally got rid of it. ”

Ning Le clapped his hands, looked around, and used the moonlight to distinguish the direction, and then continued to look in the direction of the destination.

"B&B East South Square West, No. 99, Jialiu Lane...... It seems like this is it. ”

Comparing the last line of small words on the wooden business card in his hand, Ning Le carefully looked at the wooden door in front of him, and finally knocked on it.

"Who? It's all now...... Let's start with a night service charge – oh, it's you. ”

The sleepy-eyed Buzhi knife opened the door and took a look, pouted and turned back to the house: "I thought you would have to come to me tomorrow." Looks like you've lost something very valuable, huh?"

"You know I've lost something?"

Ning Le was stunned, then nodded and said, "That's right, you know that girl." It seems that the prisoner is really her. ”

"Who told you not to listen to me? Buzhi Dao lit the flint lamp in the room, and mocked, "If you had come with me at that time, wouldn't there be nothing?"

"Knowing that it was a thief, don't remind the master, you are also half an accomplice!" Ning Le said angrily.

Bu Zhidao lay down on the sofa, spread his hands and said: "No way, that girl is more vindictive, why should I offend her for a person who doesn't want to be my customer? Besides, this can also create market demand for my own business, why not?"

"That's why you left this thing to the master before leaving, right?" Ning Le slapped the business card of Buzhi Dao on his head, "Hurry up, tell the master where that girl is, it's very urgent and critical." ”

"Five hundred Heavenly Coins. ”

"You take advantage of the fire to rob!"

"That's right. ”

“...... Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now?" Ning Le gritted his teeth.

"Hehe, this is the Heavenly Forging Castle, not the wilderness. You're a fledgling little Yanshi, and you still dare to mess around under the nose of a single family?"

Bu Zhidao said proudly: "Besides, now only I know the exact location of that girl." Even if you ask the city guards, it will take some time to find her. ”

He came to Ning Le with his hands behind his back and swayed, with a villain on his face: "That girl, but she is a habitual thief who grew up in the outer city since she was a child, and she has a wide range of channels for selling stolen goods. If you want to find her before she gets rid of your baby, you'll have to hurry. ”

"You!" Ning Le's lungs were about to explode, "...... I don't have that much cash. In a hurry to come out, the excess raw materials for the armor were also stored in the inn. ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

Bu Zhidao waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Just give me an IOU." In two days, I will go to the Golden Scale Pavilion to find you. ”
