"I wonder what the two of you want?" The corners of Ling Di's mouth were slightly raised, and the corners of his fox eyes were raised.

Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan's eyes darkened slightly, "City Lord Ling has invited him like this, wouldn't it be a good idea to live up to City Lord Ling's kindness if he doesn't go." ”

"Then, please." With a playful smile on the corner of Ling Dark's mouth, he turned sideways and gave way to the passage.

Liu Zhan stepped forward and walked past Ling Dark.

Qiao Qixin also followed, but a hand suddenly stretched out and pressed against the wall on the side, just in front of Qiao Qixin.

Liu Zhan, who heard the voice, turned around and saw Ling Di who stopped Qiao Qixin, and his face was slightly gloomy.

An aura of murder permeated the three of them.

Qiao Qixin noticed the change in her aura and subconsciously looked at Liu Zhan.

Sure enough, Liu Zhan's face was completely blackened.

I don't know if Ling Dian is sluggish or something else, anyway, he looked at Qiao Qixin with a smile and didn't speak.

In this weird atmosphere, Qiao Qixin didn't know the solution, so she could only stand in place.

After a long time, Liu Zhan finally spoke.

He said coldly, "I don't know what City Lord Ling means. ”

Ling Dian heard this, and turned back with a smile on his face, "Young Master Liu, I don't know who this is you?" ”

Liu Zhan frowned slightly, and said, "She is the painter of Dali Temple." ”

"Young Master Liu, don't run away from the question, the question of this city lord is, who is this?" Ling Dian raised his hand and picked up Qiao Qixin's chin.

Qiao Qixin tilted her head to dodge, Ling Di's eyes narrowed slightly.

Liu Zhan was silent for a moment, "This has nothing to do with City Lord Ling, if City Lord Ling moves again, I will chop off your fingers." ”

Qiao Qixin was slightly shocked in her heart.

I didn't expect Liu Zhan to be so bold, hey, no, he killed people without blinking an eye before.

Tsk, you can't forget the essence just because you've gotten along well with him these days.

Qiao Qixin secretly clenched her fists in her heart.

"Hehe, Liu Gongzi is really young and vigorous." Although he said this, Ling Dian still took his hands away.

Qiao Qixin hurriedly walked behind Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan quietly protected Qiao Qixin behind him, his eyes still staring at Ling Di vigilantly.

"What is Liu Gongzi so nervous about? Is it because you are not confident in yourself? Ling Dark's eyes narrowed with a smile.

"Didn't City Lord Ling invite us to the mansion as guests? Why don't you go yet? Liu Zhan replied.

"Hehe, let's go, please." Ling Di raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and walked to his mansion.

Qiao Qixin tugged on Liu Zhan's sleeve behind her head.

"It's okay, you follow me." Liu Zhan.

Qiao Qixin felt as if her heartbeat had missed a beat.

Damn, what's going on with this kind of spring-like rush.

The temptation came so suddenly, Qiao Qixin couldn't wait to slap her two mouths on the spot to make herself sober.

The two followed Ling Dian around Lin'an City and entered an alley.

I'm not going to do an assassination.

Qiao Qixin was a little worried, but seeing that Liu Zhan followed in without fear, she had no choice but to follow up.

Ling Di stopped at the end of the alley, turned around and looked at Qiao Qixin and Liu Zhan with a smile on his face.

"Two, welcome to the real Lin'an City, I hope you have a good time in it."

With that, Ling Dian turned around and pressed it down in the alley.

Boom Boom –

The noise rang out, and puffs of dust dispersed into the air.

Qiao Qixin was smoked and sneezed several times in succession.

After relieving herself, she raised her head, only to see that on the wall at the end of the alley, there was a hole the size of a person.

Behind the entrance is a bustling scene and street like the capital.

A city within a city?

Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan in surprise.

Liu Zhan frowned slightly, obviously not expecting such a situation.

"Aren't you two so shocked that you can't move?" Ling Dian held a folding fan in his hand, standing in his mouth and looking at the two with a smile.

The black mole at the corner of the eye is matched with fox eyes, which is even more coquettish and cunning.

Liu Zhan stepped forward, and Qiao Qixin followed closely.

"City Lord Ling is really a good city lord." Liu Zhan said, "It's just, why did you enclose this single piece of land, and leave the outside behind, and abandon it?" ”

Qiao Qixin also looked at Ling Dian and observed his reaction.

Ling Dian threw a wink at Qiao Qixin, and then said, "Liu Gongzi and Qiao Painter don't know anything. ”

"This Lin'an City, there was a plague a few days ago."

"It took me a lot of energy to get some people out and lead them to build new homes in this unpolluted area." Ling Dian looked at the bustling street in front of him, his eyes full of pride and relief.

Liu Zhan's eyes darkened slightly, "I don't know what kind of plague it is, why have I never heard of such an incident in Lin'an City?" ”

When Ling Dian heard this, he said unhurriedly, "I only found out a few days ago that after this plague infection, you are not allowed to run and jump on horseback, otherwise you will die." ”

"The officials who came to check on Lin'an City estimated that eighty percent of them had triggered the plague while riding a horse, so they died on the way home."

"Officials have been here before?" Liu Zhan said.

"That's right," Ling Dian held up the folding fan and looked at Liu Zhan, "I have outlined more than a dozen officials before and after, and they have sworn to me that they will definitely find Lang Zhong to save the lives of the people in Lin'an City, but none of them have fulfilled it. ”

Ling Dian sighed with a look of pity.

"Now that I think about it, it is estimated that those officials are no longer there, otherwise how could they break their promises."

Liu Zhan frowned and looked at Ling Di, only feeling that something was wrong.

"How long have you been here?" Qiao Qixin suddenly spoke.

Ling Di was stunned for a moment, then his eyes sank and he looked at Qiao Qixin.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Qixin had the courage to look back at Ling Di.

"Not really." Ling Di's eyes bent, his expression returned, and he explained gently, "This is the renovation of the original building, so the construction time is faster, and it is about a month or two away from now. ”

"When did the plague start?" Qiao Qixin asked again.

"About four months ago." Ling said darkly.

Qiao Qixin nodded, "What is the situation like when you have the plague?" ”

"Weakness, abscesses, coughing." Ling Dark's answer was like a stream.

"You just said you had medicine?" Qiao Qixin said.

Ling secretly bowed his head, "Yes, I was born in a medical family, although I have not obtained a family tradition, but since I was a child, I have been exposed to it since I was a child, and my medical skills are not very good, but if I devote myself to it, I can still get the right prescription for the symptoms." ”

Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan and asked Ling Di with her eyes about the authenticity of Ling Di's words.

Liu Zhan shook his head slightly.

He didn't know any medical family surnamed Ling, so naturally he couldn't tell the truth of Ling Di's words.

Georgette grinded her teeth.

It's hard to get it.

"Do you still have any questions about Liu Gongzi and Qiao Painter? If not, can you come to my house for some lunch? Ling smiled at the proposal.

Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan silently.

There is no way, as a little painter with no status, she can only follow Liu Zhan.

"Ling City Lord! When will you come to eat with me again? On the side of the road, the shopkeeper of a restaurant stood at the door to breathe, and when he saw Ling Dark, he hurriedly greeted him excitedly.

Qiao Qixin subconsciously looked at Ling Dark.

I saw that the latter seemed to be used to it, and beckoned to him like a stream, "No, there are two guests here today, and I will come to you to eat another day!" ”

"Ling City Lord! The slave family has a few new batches of fine fabrics! Sent to you? A cloth shop owner walked out of the store.

"No, no, no! I haven't used up the last time you gave me! Ling Dian hurriedly said, "Keep it for yourself and get two clothes!" ”

Ling Dark is among the people, it seems to be quite popular?

Qiao Qixin followed behind the two, looking left and right at the street.

There are no problems with street furnishings, there are also clutter in the corners, fresh stains......

Could it be that what Ling Dian said was right?

So what's going on with Jiang Ai?

Qiao Qixin was very puzzled.

Under Ling Di's leadership, the three of them came to a mansion.

Although it is called a mansion, it is actually a larger house, and from the outside, it does not look like the place where the lord of the city lives.

The door opened, and Qiao Qixin looked inside, oh, sure enough, it didn't look like it.

Inside the door, there is no decoration of plants and landscapes, and it can be said that there are four walls of the house.

Qiao Qixin was silent, but still holding on to a faint glimmer of hope.

What if he hides the gold in his house, and his wealth is not exposed......

"You two, are you going to come into the house, or are you just talking here?" Ling said with a smile, with no embarrassment on his face.

Liu Zhan lowered his eyes, "Let's go into the house and talk." ”

"Okay, but there's a bit of clutter in my house, don't worry about it." Ling Dian said, stepped forward and pushed the door open.

After entering the house, Qiao Qixin was even more silent.

Yes...... This......

It's really even more humble than the small room in the Li Mansion......

Georgette looked silently at the simple whitewash and what could barely be called a bed, but it was actually piled up with bricks, and then a large pile of broken cotton was spread on top of it.

Liu Zhan was obviously also very silent.

He organized the language for a long time before he spoke, "You...... Is this really yours, City Lord's Mansion? ”

"yes, what's wrong?" Ling was puzzled.

He went to the corner of the room, fetched a few stakes and placed them in the center of the room, then went to the bed and dragged a few cotton flowers and threw them on the stakes.

After finishing it, Ling Yin pointed to the wooden stake and said, "Sit down." ”

Georgette was silent.

She looked around the room again, and then sat down with Liu Zhan.

Even with cotton, the wooden stake is still very strong.

Liu Zhan didn't know what to say, "...... You're staying here, okay? ”

Ling Dark: "Huh? With a sigh, he seemed to wonder why Liu Zhan would ask such a question.

"Are you alright? This cotton was newly picked and dried by the people of Lin'an City and sent to me, but it was comfortable and warm. Ling replied with a smile.

Qiao Qixin and Liu Zhan glanced at each other.

"What's going on with Jiang Ai? Why did you arrest him? Qiao Qixin was the first to ask the first key question.

Ling was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes darkened, "This...... You may not believe it...... I'm here to save him. ”

"What?" Qiao Qixin was puzzled.

"You should have noticed that Jiang Ai has abscesses on his body."

Qiao Qixin was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Liu Zhan again.

Obviously, neither of them noticed whether there was such a thing as an abscess on Jiang Ai's body.

But this can't be relied on by the two of them, after all, Jiang Ai is dressed as a beggar from head to toe, covering it tightly, and he can't see it at all.
