Looking at the mansion master's seal on the gate of the mansion from a distance, Zhang Qing once again saw the power of the Tinghe Gang. Because the seal says that the Zhang family's crime is "traffic bandits, plotting against them".

Zhang Qing didn't dare to look more, so he could only sweep the surroundings with the corner of his eyes while walking quickly through the door of Zhang's mansion. Simply there are large families living here, and there are not many pedestrians and small merchants and hawkers, so Zhang Qing can find a few idlers gathered in the shade under the wall opposite Zhang's mansion.

He was 100% sure that this was the man sent by the Tinghe gang to monitor the movements outside Zhang's Mansion, because the place where they stayed was outside the walls of the Governor's Mansion, and if there were ordinary idlers who dared to hang out here, they would have been driven away by the governor's servants. Now he was squatting there in the open, obviously having said hello. And he could feel the gaze of the idlers as he walked to the door, and did not look away until he was far away.

Zhang Qing slipped to the front, turned around and entered an alley where the outer wall of Zhang's mansion was located, walked in for a while, saw that no one saw it, and turned into the mansion as soon as he scurried. Although the wall of the mansion is one zhang high, it still can't stop Zhang Qing, who has built most of the foundation. He is not afraid of being caught, first of all, because there are only a few ruffians who monitor this place, which shows that the Tinghe Gang doesn't care much about this, and probably just wants to see if the Zhang family still has relatives and friends. He can now pretend to be a beggar who wants to make a small fortune, and he doesn't even have to wear makeup. If he is caught, he will be beaten at most, and compared to something hidden somewhere in his home in Zhang Shanyi's memory, this risk is completely worth taking.

I don't know if it is because everyone who practices martial arts has it or because of the benefits brought by the Heavenly Sword Heart Method, Zhang Qing feels that his eyesight and hearing are much better than when he first walked through. As for the period of a doctor who wore glasses, it cannot be compared. After he climbed to the top of the wall, he first glanced at the mansion, and found that only the ruins and broken walls were left to be burned, and it seemed that the Tinghe Gang not only killed and looted, but also burned Zhang's mansion with fire.

Seeing that the mansion was lifeless, Zhang Qing slipped down the wall, and after determining that his position was in the servant's room, he followed the road to the main house. I didn't see a single corpse along the way, and it is estimated that either the Tinghe Gang or the City Lord's Mansion dragged the corpses away, it should be a hot day to prevent the plague.

Zhang Qing stood outside the main room, looking at the room in front of him with only half a wall left, and then thinking back to the endless stream of guests before, affected by Zhang Shanyi's residual emotions, he couldn't help but redden. He shook his head, shook off his worries, and walked straight inside, through the house, into the backyard.

"Hey, it's really burning!" Zhang Qing looked at a blackened flower garden and a few big trees, and came to the side of the rockery. After going around half a circle, he saw a dark hole in the rockery, he took out the fire fold from his arms, beat the fire, and walked in.

This is a secret room built by Zhang Ling, used to store some gold and silver ingots, but it is not hidden, Zhang Shanyi played in the backyard when he was a child, and accidentally touched the mechanism to open it. Now that the door of the cave is wide open, it means that the Tinghe Gang has already discovered this secret room, and it should have been emptied. But Zhang Qing doesn't care about those things.

Zhang Qing walked down the stairs in the cave for about a zhang and entered a two-zhang square room, because the door of the cave had not been closed, so the air inside was quite fresh. He looked around, and sure enough, the money and property that had been stored here had been removed, leaving a mess in the wake.

Zhang Qing walked to the innermost corner, where there was a two-foot-high Buddha statue carved in stone. Xu was because the Buddha statue was made of stone, so he was not taken away by the Tinghe Gang. Zhang Qing dragged the Buddha statue away with force, and carefully pried open the brick pressed by the Buddha statue on the ground with a dagger, revealing a small hole.

Because it was in the far corner of the secret room, he couldn't see anything clearly in the small hole, Zhang Qing reached out and took it, touched something, and lifted it gently, but he didn't even lift it, so he pulled it hard, and pulled out a heavy wooden box more than three feet long, which was inserted vertically in the hole. Fang Xing then groped for a while, and made sure that there was nothing left, so he moved the bricks and Buddha statues back to their original positions, and saw that there were no traces left, and then walked out satisfied. Although there is a high probability that the people of the Tinghe Gang will not come again, they are afraid of what happens. If it is discovered that there is still a secret treasure in the secret room, Zhang Qing's current identity as a small transparent person will not be easy to maintain.

He didn't rush to open the box here, but picked up a rag in the secret room - this was what Zhang Ling had covered the utensils to prevent dust - and carefully wrapped the wooden box to make sure that he couldn't see what it was, so he carried it on his back, changed the direction to the wall on the other side, carefully climbed the wall, made sure that there was no one around, and then jumped down and ran away.

Zhang Qing had already found his hiding place, and there was a big mansion on the border between Xicheng and Nancheng. Of course, it is much smaller than Zhang's Mansion, with a size of three front and back. Although Zhang Ling was not an official during his lifetime, as the peak of the day after tomorrow, he also had several generals who ranged from the middle of the day after tomorrow to the peak, and his status in the city was not low, and he was often the guest of the lord of the mansion. The size of his family's mansion is among the top 10 in the city.

The house that Zhang Qing is looking for has not been inhabited for 20 years, it is said that it used to be a small businessman's house, but the whole family died overnight, and a distant relative of his family helped the family collect the corpse, so he wanted to sell the house cheaply. The rich man disliked the death of the house, and was close to the southern city, so he was unwilling to come and buy it. In the end, it was sold to a nouveau riche from the county below.

The nouveau riche lived for a month, and the whole family died violently overnight, and now it was over, and no one wanted to take over the land. In the past twenty years, it has slowly fallen into decay, and there is news that it is haunted, and it is rumored that there are beggars in the street who have gone in to rest and never come out, and this place has also been used by parents to scare children, and gradually there are no people who come close.

As a good student from a materialist society, Zhang Qing of course scoffed at the theory of ghosts and gods, and he thought that the merchant might have contracted some kind of malignant infectious disease, and then the virus remained in the house, which led to the death of the tenants behind. But no matter how powerful the germs are, they will almost die out after twenty years, and he will only stay in for a few days, and he will be fine.

He came to this deserted mansion with his bag on his back, the gate was closed, and the locks on it were probably rusted. Zhang Qing didn't want anyone to know that the deserted mansion had been entered, so he climbed over the wall and entered the house.

Sure enough, it was a place where no one lived, the grass was waist-high, and the house was dilapidated, but it was better than Zhang's mansion, which was burned to the ground, and there were a few tiles on his head after entering.

Zhang Qing found a room that was not occupied by snakes, insects, rats, ants, and foxes, cleaned it up a little, cleaned up a place to lie down, and couldn't wait to open the baggage.

This box is a wooden box made of ordinary wood, not even painted, and there are traces of knives and axes on it, which seems to have been made in a hurry. Two ropes are also tied horizontally and vertically to the box to prevent the wooden box from opening. Zhang Qing untied the rope, lifted the lid of the box, and saw an envelope and a booklet. Underneath the two was a strangely shaped long black knife.

After all, Zhang Qing is a boy, he likes to dance with knives and guns, and he himself learned "Knife Record", so his interest in knives is naturally greater. So Zhang Qing put the letter and the booklet aside first, and looked at the knife carefully.

This knife seems to have been burned by fire for a long time, it is pitch black, the blade is hidden with rust, there is no reflection at all, the back of the knife is undulating like a wave, and there are two sharp protrusions in the high place, so it cannot be put into the scabbard, and above the handle of the knife, there are two seal words engraved with 'into trouble', if it weren't for Zhang Qing having an adoptive father who is a professor of ancient literature in college, he really may not be able to recognize it.

"Disaster? What the hell is this name? Does it mean that this knife will bring disaster?" Zhang Qing thought.

After that, he reached out and grabbed the knife in front of his eyes, only to feel a chill in his face. The knife weighed thirty or forty pounds, and now it was very heavy for him who had not yet built the foundation. He estimated that even if he succeeded in building the foundation and entered the early stage of the day after tomorrow, he would only be able to use this knife reluctantly.

"But。。。。。。 Zhang Qing turned his head to look at the beams that fell beside him, raised his knife and slashed hard, there was no stagnation in the wood, and he directly split the beams that were nearly a foot thick into half, and smashed a deep pit on the masonry ground, which startled Zhang Qing. He quickly raised the knife and examined the blade carefully, only to find that it was not damaged at all. Look at the pit on the ground, it is slender and narrow, it is not smashed out, but it is cut into it.
