Ma Qing lay in the back room with an expression on his face.

There was a lot of quarrel in the courtyard.

Ma Kuo asked Wang with a calm face: Sister-in-law, I really can't think of any need to kill people!

Wang knew that no one would believe her, so he still defended: I didn't kill her. Even if I kill her, there's nothing wrong with that.

Ma Kuo took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and said: Sister-in-law, I know what you are doing. If you have any clues, tell me and I can help you with the details. The top priority is not to ask you to be reckless, but to give Qing'er an explanation.

Wang and Xiao Shao have a four-day appointment, and after four days, they will know. Therefore, the Wang family didn't mind how Ma Qing misunderstood, but was worried that her and Xiao Shao's identities would be discovered, and she had no choice but to mention the details. So he said: There is nothing to explain, and in four days, he will understand.

Ma Kuo closed his eyes and said as slowly and calmly as possible: What will happen in the past four days?

Wang looked around, and Ma Kuo recklessly withdrew from the idlers.

Wang then said: Four days later, the pseudo-tiger will come to Qingjiang again.

A cold light flashed in Ma Kuo's eyes: Sister-in-law, how did you learn the news, and what does this have to do with your killing of Xiao Shao?

Wang said: Second uncle, there are some things I really can't say.

Ma Kuo hated Wang's arrogance, clenched his fists and said: Why can't you say it!

Wang said: Second uncle, can the people in the backyard of the house still harm you? Can't you make up your mind and prepare for the war?

Ma Kuo said: You kill people at every turn, and you have no ancestors and no one to protect the laws of Qingjiang, how can you make me believe in you, how can you make me feel at ease? Do you know what kind of situation Qingjiang is now? If you can't say why you came today, then don't blame Qingjiang's law for being ruthless, and I'll kill my relatives with righteousness!

Wang really didn't expect Ma Kuo, who had always been modest, to say these words, her temperament was even stronger, and she twisted her neck and said: I want to see how you kill you!

As soon as Ma Kuo gritted his teeth, he raised his hand and wanted to ask for family law. Before he could speak, Ma Taxue on the side hurriedly stepped forward, firmly clamped Ma Kuo's hand, and whispered: Second brother, sister-in-law can't fight, this matter can't be publicized.

Ma Kuo shook off Ma Ta Xue: I, Ma Kuo, have a clear conscience, what do I have to do so reluctantly!

The clansmen who had been guarding outside were about to enter the courtyard when they heard the sound, but they were blocked by Xiaoyu. Xiao Yu crossed his waist to block the door and threatened in a low voice: I see who dares to go in!

The clansmen did not dare to disobey the head of the family, let alone disrespect the Wang family, in fact, they all looked at the door and did not want to go in to get people; when they saw Xiaoyu blocking them, but they were bound to ride a tiger, they said: Sister Xiaoyu, you don't want to die, you have to be pretentious, you are so clear to stop us, be careful that the master of the family dismantles your skin, at that time we can't fight if we want to!

Xiao Yu was aggrieved and burst into tears, and said: When has the Ma family invited the family law in the past 20 years! Even if it is a door-to-door law, Xiao Yu can't let his wife be the first to suffer!

In the courtyard, Ma Taxue knelt down and persuaded: Second brother, sister-in-law can't fight. You can't fight even if you look at the face of the dead big brother!

Ma Kuo and Wang shouted at the same time: Get up, don't mention big brother!

The Wang family did not allow the eldest brother to be mentioned because he did not want to drag down the name of his late husband; Ma Kuo did not want to mention the eldest brother because the eldest brother tried his best to maintain the Ma family, and he never wanted the Ma family to have two hearts because of him after his death.

But Ma Kuo thought of his eldest brother, and his heart softened, and Ma Taxue begged bitterly. As soon as he raised his hand loosened, he broke off the idea of asking for family law, but his anger did not subside, and he turned his back and said: Come on, take Mrs. back to the room to rest. Xiaoyu!

Xiaoyu's tears were not dry, and when she heard the words, she walked in front of her.

Ma Kuo continued: You little girl is getting more and more unfocused, you went to the firewood room to think about it.

Then Ma Ko said to the people at the door, "Look at them, and she will not be allowed to see anyone, nor will she be allowed to drink a drop of water."

Ma Kuo had already given in, and the Wang family didn't dare to go down the stairs without sending them down, and was obediently taken to the study. Xiaoyu was also carried out and cried even louder. Not far away, the clansmen who were guarding her secretly said: Sister Xiaoyu, don't pretend, tell us what you want to eat later, and I'll get it for you!

Xiao Yu really wiped her tears, and grinned: You know each other!

The clansman complained: Sister Xiaoyu, you can't be so impulsive in the future, take care of the face of the head of the family. Otherwise, the head of the family is really annoyed and wants to use the family law, and your little body will really be broken!

Xiaoyu said disdainfully: Hmph, after becoming this bullshit guard, there are more and more rules in the family, and now he actually wants to do it to his wife. Hmph, if it's broken, it's broken! I'm not afraid. If Madame hurts the slightest, I'll see if you conscienceless people have the face to eat her cooking!

The clansman also sighed and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, who said it wasn't!" But this time the lady went too far, after all, the head of the family couldn't help it if she killed someone.

Although Xiao Yu was dedicated to defending the Wang family, she couldn't help but be short of breath when she heard this, and said weakly: Madame always has a reason.

After everyone in the courtyard retreated, Ma Kuo helped Ma Taxue and said: The man has gold under his knees, how can you kneel down casually if you are the head of the six families of the Ma family!

Ma Taxue returned: Eldest brother is like a father, you can stand kneeling you. But second brother, you didn't look like it at all just now, you really want to use the family law, I don't dare not stop you.

Ma Kuo shook his head: Do you think I don't understand? The reason why the Ma family can get to this day is not because of me, nor because of the eldest brother, but because the whole clan works together. But the sister-in-law has been self-absorbed lately, acting secretly behind the clansmen's back. Even you and I don't know. It's not that I don't treat her as my own family, it's that my sister-in-law is too much.

Ma Taxue lowered his voice and asked: Where did you find something wrong?

Ma Kuo replied: I sent someone to check the list of demon beasts, and I even borrowed the directory of the Li family, but I didn't find out the scales and claws of the "cat again" and "pseudo-tiger", how did the sister-in-law know! The sister-in-law's familiarity with the monster beasts is really beyond imagination, and the eldest brother also kept the sister-in-law's origin secretive before her death. I don't suspect that my sister-in-law deliberately harmed the Ma family, but her reaction today is obviously that there are some shortcomings in the hands of others, if she is coerced to do something involuntarily, how can the head of my family, the lord of a city, have no defense at all!

Ma Taxue savored it carefully and said: The second brother is very worried. The sister-in-law said that four days later, what should we do if the pseudo-tiger comes again?

Ma Kuo said: "I'd rather believe in it, don't believe in it!" Treading the snow, you go to Rulong to discuss, don't make a noise, and then go to the camp to find me if you have an idea.

The horse stepped on the snow and left.

After Ma Kuo finished explaining, he pushed the door and went in to see Ma Qing. He slowly paced to the side of the bed, but Ma Qing closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. Ma Kuo coughed twice and said, "Qing'er, don't pretend, get up and talk to the second uncle."

Ma Qing was silent. Ma Kuo said: The poison in your body is tempered by the "elephant herb", and if it is heavy, it will indeed be life-threatening. But that girl just wants you to suffer, and the dose you use can make your muscles stiff and tingling all over your body. It's been three hours, and the effect of the medicine is fading. You, you should have woken up a long time ago, who can you fool with your eyes closed!

Ma Qing knew that he couldn't pretend, so he got up and said: Then it's not okay when I'm asleep!

Ma Kuhaha laughed and said: If you really grit your teeth and pretend to sleep, I don't have a problem with you, but you got up by yourself.

The residual poison is not exhausted, and Ma Qing's actions are still not smooth. Ma Kuo hurriedly helped him sit down, and he also sat on the edge of the bed.

"Qing'er, did you hear it just now?"

Ma Qing nodded.

"The second uncle also has a hard time doing this, but I promise to find out everything as soon as possible and return justice to the deceased. There is only one thing you have to remember, your mother will not be wrong, even if you are wrong, you can't blame her, I will deal with it, do you understand?"

These words gave Ma Qing a relief. After Xiao Jiu's death, Ma Qing has always had mixed feelings in his heart, and he feels guilty about Xiao Jiu in every way but is helpless, and he doesn't dare to complain and has to resent his mother. So he was happy to keep his body deteriorating, so he collapsed on the bed and saw no one. Ma Kuo arranged it like this, even if Ma Qing couldn't be appeased in his heart, at least he didn't have to really bear the idea of revenge in his actions.

Ma Kuo continued: If you are in good health, I will send you to the camp tomorrow, and leave the house for a while.

Ma Qing nodded and said, "I can leave tonight."

Ma Kuo responded: It's okay. Qing'er, but there are still some things I need to ask you clearly?

Ma Qing said: What?

Ma Kuo asked: How much do you know about the unknown building?

In Ma Kuo's mind, Xiao Jiu is just a woman with weak cultivation, and it is difficult for her to set off any storms alone. So he followed the clues and found out that Xiao Jiu belonged to Unknown Building.

"I don't know the building again!"

Ma Kuo has been concerned about the origin of the building for a long time.

The reason for this is still from Ma Qing. Ma Qing lingered in Qinglou for a while, neglecting his practice, which annoyed Wang and Ma Kuo. Ma Kuo used some means to deal with the main affairs of each Qinglou. Smoke Willow Lane is the most ruthless. Either induced or coerced, everywhere quickly agreed respectfully, and then deliberately sent some old women in their fifties and sixties to serve Ma Qing. Ma Qingdu is not weak, how can he stand the gap from a pair of "cherry tomatoes" to two "rotten persimmons". After taking a few looks, he almost escaped from the Qinglou in tears.

This is the only one who doesn't know the building, and he is neither humble nor arrogant to invite the messenger of Mafu out, which has become Ma Qing's last foothold.

Ma Kuo has a stomach, and he doesn't feel annoyed when he is dismissed, and it just so happened that during that time, Ma Qing was so frightened by rotten persimmons that he didn't dare to go out and fool around again, Ma Kuo thought that this article had been turned over. But the king humiliated the ministers to death, and the horses under his hands had the idea of giving the unknown building some color. After several battles, the horse stepped on the snow and was dusty, and he didn't know that the building was standing. Ma Taxue Yan and Ma Kuo listened, which can be regarded as arousing Ma Kuo's attention, and after careful investigation, I don't know if Lou really hides a mystery.

At a cursory glance, I don't know that the building is just a green building that flaunts its style, but you can carefully check the degree of use in the building, and the consumption of medicinal materials and metals is extremely amazing. And most of the characters who enter and leave the building are all old people in Qingjiang. Ma Kuo carefully read the list, all of them are veterans of the founding generation of the city, and it is rare for a handful of people to enter and leave the Qinglou at such a frequency!

The founder of the registration of the building is a businessman from Beidi, and the origin is almost impossible to find, so it is just a cover to cover people's eyes.

When the Li family was in power, Ma Kuo acted obscurively and was unwilling to invite merit to make enemies, so he kept things quiet. Now that Ma Kuo has been appointed as the guard, it is all a different state of mind.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep peacefully!

Ma Kuo was about to start a thorough investigation, and Xiao Jiu's incident came out, and this time he naturally would not let go of this live clue in front of him - Ma Qing.

Ma Qing woke up by him, quickly recalled all kinds of abnormalities in the unknown building, and told Ma Kuo one by one. But Ma Qing has never entered the main pavilion, and the information he knows is very simple, and Ma Kuo has long known it.

Suddenly, Ma Qing remembered something, so he said:

"I don't know that there is an institution hidden in the building, which only accepts orphans with no name and surname, and spends a lot of effort to teach and learn calligraphy, and even worships and cultivates, and the talents that can be cultivated are scattered out of society and are missing. Xiao Jiu also vaguely mentioned that he didn't know that the building was just an industry downstream, and there were many halls hidden in the dark. The sheer complexity of the property may be beyond imagination. This kind of operation can still stand, either there are black accounts, or there is the support of the financier behind it. ”

Ma Kuo thought for a moment and replied: No matter what, I can't tolerate him.

Ma Qing responded: Second uncle, what do you want?

Ma Kuo said: Just know in your heart, the top priority is not to know the building, you go to the barracks with me first.
