Zi Yan was injured by the little old man, and she suffered a seizure not long after leaving the Yan Mansion. Fortunately, the people from the Yan Mansion didn't chase after them, otherwise they might still be difficult to get out. But now is not the time to stay here, and even this Yangzhou City is afraid that it will not be able to stay. They are now undoubtedly regarded as the accomplices of the great thief "Long Shaotian", and the people of the Yan family and the government will definitely go all out to hunt them down. And if those who were looking for Long Shaotian knew that the thief "Long Shaotian" saved them, they might also come to them for trouble. So Hanxue hired a carriage and decided to go out of the city for a while.

The snow carried the carriage all the way to the outside of the city. During this period, Zi Yan poked her head out of the curtain of the car and said, "Sister Hanxue, are we going out of the city now?"

Han Xue said: "Hmm. ”

Zi Yan said: "Didn't we make an appointment with Sister Chunxiang to meet in this city? And the man in black also said that he was going to come to us? If we leave now, won't they find us?"

Han Xue said: "I can't take care of so much now, I'm afraid that the whole city will be full of notices to arrest us in the near future, it's too dangerous to stay in the city, wait until the limelight is over." ”

Zi Yan said: "Actually, I know that there is a place in this city, and it should be safer there." ”

Han Xue suddenly stopped the carriage, looked at Zi Yan in surprise, and said, "What is the place?

Zi Yan said: "It's a friend of the young master, it seems that the young master was kind to him before, and the young master brought me here a few years ago." ”

Han Xue said: "Okay, then let's go there." ”

In order to hide people's eyes, the two disguised themselves a little, and then deliberately took a lot of detours before finally coming to the door of this stronghold. It's far from the city, and it looks like it's just an ordinary house, and its courtyard is not indicated. Although the gate was closed, the spotless pavement in front of the gate showed that there must be people living inside.

Han Xue helped Zi Yan to knock on the door, and after a while, a young man of fifteen or sixteen opened the door for them. When the young man saw the two big beauties standing in front of the door, a trace of confusion flashed in the corners of his eyes, and he asked with a red face, "Who are you looking for?"

Zi Yan stared at the young man for a while, and asked a little suspiciously, "Are you Xiaozhi?"

Being called by a nickname, the young man was obviously a little surprised, so he looked at Zi Yan carefully before exclaiming, "You are Sister Zi Yan!"

Zi Yan nodded. In fact, it's no wonder that Xiao Zhi didn't recognize Zi Yan at a glance, a few years ago, Zi Yan was just a yellow-haired girl when she came, and now she has grown into an out-and-out beauty.

After receiving Zi Yan's affirmative answer, Xiao Zhi said in surprise: "Sister Zi Yan, what's wrong with you?

Zi Yan was about to answer, but Han Xue interrupted them and said, "Let's go in first, this is not a place to talk." ”

Ash said in a panic: "Yes, yes, two sisters, please come in!"

After being led into the house, Zi Yan asked, "Xiaozhi, is your Master Zhong here?"

Xiao Zhi said: "Yes, the master is meeting a guest in the hall, if Sister Ziyan is here, he will be very happy." But it's still important to let Sister Zi Yan recuperate, or maybe Xiao Zhi will take the two sisters back to the room to rest first, and then go and inform the master later?"

Zi Yan said: "Sister, this little injury doesn't matter, take us to see your master first." ”

Han Xue suddenly said, "Slow, you said your master is meeting guests?"

Xiao Zhi said: "Yes, it is the eldest young master of Master Liu's family who has business dealings with us, but the two sisters don't have to worry, Young Master Liu is a regular customer of ours, if the two sisters go, the master will not be annoyed." ”

Han Xue said: "Let's not go to see your master first, we shouldn't let outsiders know about our affairs here." ”

Ash said: "Then Ash will take the two sisters to the backyard to rest first, and then Ash will inform the master when the guests are gone." ”

Han Xue said: "Okay!"

The three of them were about to walk to the backyard when a young man in gorgeous clothes and an old man in plain clothes were walking towards them.

Seeing these two people, Xiao Zhi said nervously: "It's not good, the master has already come out!"

But there was no way to avoid it now, and it was evident that the two men had noticed them too, and the old man was walking briskly towards them.

Master Zhong, who approached, looked very excited, with a smile on his face, and said, "I really didn't look dazzled, it turned out that it was really Miss Ziyan!"

Zi Yan smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong is good!"

Master Zhong smiled even brighter, and said, "Miss Ziyan hasn't been here for a few years, but the old man will miss it!"

Zi Yan just smiled.

Then Master Zhong seemed to remember something, turned to Young Master Liu behind him and said, "Young Master Liu, I have a distinguished guest visiting today, Shu Zong can't send it far away, we will talk about the specific matters another day." ”

Young Master Liu said: "Master Zhong doesn't need to be polite, you and I are old acquaintances, if you still care about these small sections, then it won't be too obvious." ”

Master Zhong smiled: "What Gongzi Liu said is true!"

Young Master Liu said: "Then Master Zhong is busy first, I will visit another day and say goodbye!"

That Young Master Liu wanted Master Zhong to introduce two girls to him, but since Master Zhong had already issued an eviction order, he was naturally embarrassed to stay.

Although he didn't go to deliver it in person, Master Zhong still instructed Xiao Zhi to lead Young Master Liu out of the city. Although the two girls didn't want to attract Young Master Liu's attention, Young Master Liu couldn't help but glance at them as he passed by the two girls. However, it was this glimpse that completely captured Young Master Liu's heart, so that it had a significant impact on the rest of his life, but this is all for later.

In order not to attract attention, Zi Yan had been enduring the pain just now. As soon as Young Master Liu left, he collapsed and fell on Zi Yan.

Seeing this, Master Zhong was a little panicked, and asked eagerly, "Miss Ziyan, what's wrong?"

Han Xue said: "She was injured, and I asked Uncle Zhong to arrange a room for me to take her to rest." ”

Master Zhong said: "Okay, good, follow me!"

After settling Zi Yan, Master Zhong and Han Xue came out of the house.

Master Zhong said, "How is Miss Ziyan's injury?"

Han Xue said: "I have already taken the healing pill, it should be fine, but the body is still very weak, and it may need to recuperate for a few days." ”

Master Zhong said: "Then I'll immediately call someone to boil some tonics!"

Han Xue said: "Uncle Zhong, don't worry, there are some things that must be explained to you now, with our current situation, taking us in may bring you disadvantage!"

Master Zhong said: "Girl, what are you talking about! Miss Feng Guan has offended someone, as long as my Zhong Mou's life is still alive, I will never let them be unfavorable to the two girls!"

Han Xue didn't expect Master Zhong's attitude to be so resolute, and he couldn't help but be moved, and said, "Then there will be Uncle Lao Zhong!"

Master Zhong said: "The girl doesn't have to be polite, just treat this place as her own home." ”

Hanxue nodded.

Master Zhong said: "By the way, I don't know the name of the girl from Lu Dao, it must be the girl next to Shaotian, right?"

Han Xue said: "Well, my name is Han Xue. ”

Master Zhong said: "Hanxue girl, I'll arrange it first, and then tell me the details later, so I can deal with it as soon as possible, and you can also go and rest during this time." ”

Hanxue nodded in agreement.

After that, Han Xue narrated the ins and outs of the whole incident to Master Zhong, including Long Shaotian's disappearance.

After pondering for a moment, Master Zhong said: "It turns out that the rumors in the rivers and lakes about the disappearance of the young owner are true, and the big thief "Long Shaotian" is said to have committed several big cases, but I am sure that person will never be Shaotian, Shaotian will not do such a thing!"

Han Xue said: "We didn't believe that he was the young master, but we still wanted to find him to confirm and see if we could find some clues." ”

Master Zhong said: "That thief is said to have come and gone without a trace, and it is not easy to find him." ”

Han Xue said: "When we were rescued by him, he said he would come to us. ”

Master Zhong said: "That's very good, I don't know if he can find it." The person who had just come back from outside said that now the city was full of storms outside, and the people from the government and the Yan Mansion were arresting people everywhere, and they were afraid that they were coming for the thief and the two girls. ”

Han Xue said: "Uncle Zhong, does it really matter if we are here? if they find out, they will implicate you!"

Master Zhong said: "At this time, why do the girls still say these things! I have received a lot of favors from the young owner before, and now that the young owner has something to do, how can I stand by and watch! Although the two girls live here, I will also send someone to inquire about the whereabouts of the young owner. ”

Han Xue thought that Master Zhong would hesitate after hearing what happened, if that was the case, they might have to leave here as soon as possible, but now it seems that there is no need to worry. So I am even more grateful to Master Zhong.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the courtyard, and after hearing this, Master Zhong said, "Something must have happened outside, I'll go and see first." ”

Master Zhong was about to step out of the door, and Xiao Zhi hurriedly ran in, panting and said, "Master, it's not good, the officers and soldiers are here!"

Master Zhong said, "I didn't expect it to come so quickly!" and then hurriedly returned to the house and said to Han Xue: "Han Xue girl, come with me!"

The two hurriedly returned to the house where Zi Yan lived, and then took Zi Yan to the study together. Master Zhong pushed hard in front of a bookshelf, and the bookshelf rotated open, and a secret room appeared in front of him.

Master Zhong said: "Miss Hanxue, take Miss Ziyan in!"

After the two entered the secret room, Master Zhong closed the bookshelf again. Soon after, officers and soldiers arrived. The people in the government like to do things loudly, and Han Xue and the two of them can hear the sound outside in the secret room.

I don't know how long it took, but the bookshelf was pushed open again, and a figure walked in.

I only heard a voice say: "Two girls, there is nothing to do, the officers and soldiers have left." "The person who came in was none other than Master Zhong.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed out, patted his chest and sighed: "Alas, it's finally gone!

Master Zhong exclaimed, "Who is it?"

Han Xue and the others were also very surprised by the appearance of this man in black, just now this person was obviously in this secret room, but they didn't notice it at all. Even if the light in this secret room is not good, it can be done to this extent, which shows that his martial arts are unfathomable.

In the face of the sudden appearance of the man in black, the three of them did not dare to act rashly, but they all tensed their nerves and were ready to fight at any time.

The man in black still looked nonchalant and said, "Don't be so nervous, I don't have any ill will towards you." ”

Master Zhong said, "Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming here?"

The man in black sneered: "I originally wanted to get something valuable, but I don't think you're a good person." But seriously, you've got a lot of good babes there!"

Hearing him say this, there seemed to be other rooms in this chamber besides this one. Master Zhong's face was completely bloodless at this time, he didn't expect that such a secret room of his own would be easily found.

Zi Yan pulled Han Xue's sleeve, and the two glanced at each other, and then Han Xue suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Are you the black-clothed thief?"

The man in black turned his gaze to Han Xue, and said in surprise: "It turns out that the two young ladies are also there, so it's just right, I don't have to bother to find you." ”

This man is really the black-clothed thief! It looks like he didn't come to find the two girls, and I don't know if Lu Dao is deliberately pretending to be confused.

But none of that matters. After receiving an affirmative answer from the man in black, Han Xue asked the question she wanted to ask the most: "Do you know the whereabouts of our young master?"

The man in black hesitated for a moment and said, "You're talking about Long Shaotian, right? Unfortunately, I don't have his whereabouts." ”

Although the two girls didn't have much hope, they still felt disappointment on their faces. After being silent for a while, Han Xue asked again: "Then why did you pretend to be him to commit crimes on the rivers and lakes?"

The man in black said: "Naturally, it's to lure him out." ”

Han Xue said a little excitedly, "Do you think he's still alive?"

The man in black said: "He didn't die so easily. ”

Han Xue said again: "Then do you think you are sure to lure him out?" Han Xue thought that she could get a positive answer, after all, this man in black is also a person with great powers, and he should be somewhat sure of making such an action. But the man in black's "no" shattered her hopes again.

The man in black said again: "Although I am not sure, but now that there are more people from the government to help us find him, isn't there more hope of finding him?"

Han Xue said: "What is the purpose of you trying to find him out so much?"

The man in black said: "It's inconvenient to say more. ”

Han Xue looked a little tired, and the clue they had managed to grasp was now broken, so they didn't want to delve into the purpose of the man in black.

Han Xue asked later: "Before the young master disappeared, there was a mysterious woman who went to Wanfu Villa, I wonder if you know her origin?"

The man in black asked curiously, "What kind of woman is it?"

Han Xue described the woman she saw that day, and got a negative answer.

Seeing that Hanxue didn't speak again, the black clothes said, "Miss, do you have any other questions?"

Hanxue shook her head.

The black man said: "Then I will take my leave!" A gust of wind passed, and the man in black disappeared without a trace.
