Volume 2 Chapter 84
When everyone watched Ouyang Jingyi come out of the side door, the atmosphere was obviously a lot more solemn.
Her face still had tears that had not been dried, her expression was dazed, her face was pale, and she walked towards everyone in a somewhat sluggish manner.
"What's going on?" Tang Feng hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.
Ouyang Lan bit her lip, frowned slightly, and looked at her sister nervously, she was afraid of hearing bad news.
Ouyang Jingyi ignored Tang Feng's greetings, she walked straight to her sister, her eyes gradually recovering a hint of look.
"Sister. Ouyang Lan whispered, "What's wrong at home?"
"No ......," Ouyang Jingyi murmured softly.
"What?"
Ouyang Jingyi raised her eyes and looked into her sister's eyes.
"Home, gone. ”
Ouyang Lan was stunned for a moment, then her brows were twisted, and a forced smile appeared on her face, but it was more ugly than crying, "Sister, you're lying to me, right?"
Ouyang Jingyi seemed to have completely regained her composure, looked at her sister's strange expression, and said word by word, "Really, more than 180 people in the family, all of them were killed, the whereabouts of the father and mother are unknown, the Ouyang family, now it's just you and me." ”
The corners of Ouyang Lan's mouth gradually flattened, biting her lip, her eyes were instantly full of tears, and it seemed that the next moment would burst the embankment.
"If you want to cry, cry out. Ouyang Jingyi gently took her sister into her arms.
"For ...... Why...... Why is it ......?"
Ouyang Lan was buried in Ouyang Jingyi's arms, and her weak voice flowed out with a whimper, and her shoulders shrugged violently.
"I don't know...... Ouyang Jingyi lowered her head and hugged her sister tightly, "I don't know ...... either"
The two sisters stood at the door of the house and were not allowed to enter, hugging each other and crying, one crying bitterly and the other silently......
Everyone stood silent on the sidelines until the two sisters had calmed down before they stepped forward.
"Do you know who did it?" Qin Shu has always been calm.
Ouyang Jingyi shook her head, "I heard Liu Zhutou say, the government only knows that it was done by a group of people in black, and there are no other clues yet." ”
"Although the head catcher was the first to contact the scene of the crime, his official position was too small, and he may not have so comprehensive clues. Tang Feng said cautiously.
"Not bad. Li Jingwei nodded. "In that case, why don't we go to the City Lord's Mansion to investigate, the fall of such a big family, the City Lord's Mansion can't have no clues. ”
"Yes, not to mention that Ma Long is still the son of the City Lord's Mansion, so it's easier to do things with this relationship. Xiao Yao agreed.
"Then let's go to the City Lord's Mansion and ask first. Li Yi said with repentance, looking at the two Ouyang sisters.
The two sisters nodded in agreement.
So the people who had just arrived at Ouyang's house for a while turned to the City Lord's Mansion again.
......
"Stop, who's coming. ”
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the city lord's mansion, everyone was stopped by the guards.
"We are disciples of Shushan, and we are brothers with Ma Gongzi of your mansion, and now we have come to visit and discuss something, so please report it. Qin Shu took the lead and said politely.
"Oh, it turned out to be Childe's fellow disciple, and I would like you to wait a moment and make an announcement on the next horse. ”
As soon as they heard that it was their own son-in-law's senior brother, the guards' faces softened a lot, and one of them, who was more clever, hurriedly trotted in to the door to report.
"I'm sorry everyone, Childe has something to do for the time being, but the city lord invites you to come to the door as guests, and Childe will come back after a while. The guard quickly ran back.
"You've just come back and you're out of the house?"
"Who knows what's wrong with these sons and brothers, it's okay, anyway, they were looking for the city lord, let's go in first." ”
So everyone quickly walked through the hall under the leadership of the guards and came to the waiting room of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Haha, I think you are disciples of Shushan, and I want to thank you for taking care of the dogs along the way. ”
As soon as they entered the door, an enthusiastic voice reached everyone's ears.
"You are the Lord of Ma City, all the disciples of Shu Mountain are polite. ”
Qin Shu took the lead and led everyone to salute.
"Eh, you don't have to be so polite, just call me Ma Gan, the Lord of Ma City listens to Sheng. Ma Gan smiled and helped everyone up.
"Since you are an elder in the same family, is it okay to call you Uncle Ma?" Li Jingwei said.
"It's okay or good. Ma Gan always looked smiling.
"Actually, I came here this time because I wanted to ask my uncle for help. Tang Feng was a little impatient to step forward.
"The virtuous nephew said that it was okay, since he called Ma a certain uncle, naturally it was not in vain. Ma Qian said in a big way.
"These two are the daughters of the Ouyang family. Tang Feng pointed at the two Ouyang sisters with his palm.
"Oh? I've seen it before, but I didn't expect the kung fu to change so much in a while, and I couldn't recognize it. What happened to the Ouyang family this time, Ma, also has a certain responsibility. Alas...... In short, I can only mourn the two virtuous nieces on the Day. Ma Gan said with a sad face, and almost wiped out a few tears with his sleeve.
"We are thinking, since Uncle Ma is the lord of a city, he must also be extremely well-informed, will it ...... Know a little bit about the real culprit. Qin Shu said.
"This ......" Ma Gan seemed a little hesitant, and seemed to be a little unspeakable.
Seeing this, the two sisters of Ouyang knew that Ma Gan must know something, and hurriedly stepped forward to plead, "I also hope that the city lord of Ma can tell one or two that the Ouyang family has been destroyed, and the real murderer will not be eliminated for a day, and my two sisters will be restless for a day, if the city lord can help us today, my two sisters will definitely repay each other!"
Ouyang Jingyi said, and pulled Ouyang Lan to kneel.
"Eh, why should the virtuous niece be like this, I am also an old acquaintance with Ling Zun, how can I not be sad when this kind of thing happens? Ma Gan hurriedly helped the two of them up.
"Please rest assured that if you know that you can't do it, we will naturally not send you to death, and I just want to find out some information. Qin Shu said.
"Yes, we will protect the two junior sisters. Tang Feng stood up and said.
Li Yicheng and the others also nodded in agreement.
"Well, in that case, you need to promise me that if you can't do anything, your life is the most important thing. Ma Gan pretended to ponder.
"Definitely. ”
Ma Gan glanced at everyone and said, "I heard that it is related to the water village of the Yanjiang River. ”
"Trench River Water Village?"
Ma Gan nodded, "It's a new group of water thieves in Nanchong City, not only the source is unknown, but all of them are extraordinary, they are stationed at the mouth of the river, and the imperial court has also sent troops to suppress them, but with little effect, a few days ago, there were rumors that they were eyeing the Ouyang family, I thought it was a rumor, but who knows, a few days later, such a tragedy happened to the Ouyang family......"
"Yanjiang Water Village......" Ouyang Jingyi gritted her teeth, "I told you to pay for your lives!"
With that, he threw it off and left.
The crowd couldn't stop it, so they had to keep up.
"Uncle Ma, thank you. Qin Shu hurriedly left a sentence and followed.
"Be careful all the way. Ma Gan finally said.
After seeing everyone leave, he also turned and walked towards the inner courtyard, the streamer shining on the side of his face.
It seems to have a weird smile......
