Chapter 7: Night Detective

Chen Yu, who woke up from sleep, got up and put on his clothes, looked out the window, and the stars had hung in the sky at some point. The whole marshal's mansion was brightly lit, and he couldn't help but be amazed that it could be so bright without electric lights.

And the courtyard where he was quiet, probably considering that he was resting, all the subordinates were sent out. Chen Yu's thoughts were a little confused, so he paced in the courtyard.

"Ah, Childe, are you awake?"

It's cold outside, so go back inside. I don't know how long it took, Lan Xiang's crisp voice interrupted Chen Yu's thoughts.

"Oh, it's Lanxiang. Why are you still here so late, why don't you go to rest?"

"In the evening, the young master came here. But when you are resting, let the slave and maid wait here, saying that you will go and pray when you wake up, as if you have something important to do. ”

"But it's going to be so late. Chen Yu scratched his head a little embarrassed.

"Hee-hee, childe, you can really sleep. The young master said, it's too late to wait for tomorrow morning. ”

Being ridiculed by a girl, Chen Yu suddenly blushed.

"Oh well. By the way, why don't I go to rest before you answer it?" Chen Yu immediately changed the subject.

Also, childe, you don't know, we have to be on duty every day. I'm in charge of Childe's place today, and if you're hungry, I'll ask the kitchen to make you some supper. ”

"Forget it, it's easy to get fat when you eat in the middle of the night, you don't know, it's ...... in our place" Chen Yu, who was halfway through speaking, suddenly stopped and didn't speak silently.

......

"Childe, Childe, what's wrong with you?" Lan Xiang looked at Chen Yu, who was distracted, and pulled Chen Yu's arm and shook it for a long time.

"Well, it's okay, I just remembered something. ”

Chen Yu was a little sad, in the past, Ling Er was also shouting for supper at night, shouting while eating, "Oops, Brother Yu will be fat again tomorrow." ”

"Ling'er, are you okay?"

Chen Yu looked up at the waning moon in the sky and whispered.

"Childe, are you homesick?" Lan Xiang looked at Chen Yu, who was depressed, and asked with concern.

"It's okay, Lanxiang, you can go and rest too. There's nothing to do on my side, you've been busy all day, you're tired enough, rest early. ”

"But, Childe ......"

"Go ahead, I want to stay alone. If there is any problem, I will tell your young master. ”

"Well, Childe, go back to the house early, be careful of catching a cold. ”

"Good night, Lanxiang. ”

"Hmm, good night, Childe" Although I didn't understand what Chen Yu meant, it sounded quite smooth, and Lan Xiang also replied and left.

"Hey. Chen Yu let out a long sigh, turned his head to look at Lan Xiang who was getting farther and farther away, and raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

"If you don't leave, what will I do later?" Chen Yu didn't forget the mysterious attic in the afternoon. Because Han Qing was there, he suppressed his curiosity, which would be something that could not be suppressed.

Chen Yu followed the path back in the afternoon, but the marshal's mansion was big, and he found the back garden after going around a few times. It's just that as soon as I arrived at the back garden, I was stunned when I saw Chen Yu in the attic. The forbidden area, which should have been empty, now has two figures on the second floor of the attic.

......

In the attic on the second floor, two men in black kept rummaging for something, and the entire attic was in a mess. Boxes, books and other items were scattered all over the floor. At the top of the stairs, two strong men were lying on the ground, their eyes wide open, but at this time the two of them had no breath of life.

On closer inspection, there was a thin red line on the necks of the two of them, and the red blood had already congealed, and the bodies of the two had already been separated!

"Big brother, this marshal's mansion is not very good. And those two pieces of waste, who died like this before they even fought, it's really boring. The shorter man in black rummaged and complained to the other man in black.

"Hmph, waste? Second brother, if it weren't for that sharp weapon, it wouldn't be certain who would have killed the deer today. Do you know who these two are?"

"Aren't they just two martial arts practitioners?"

"Second child, sooner or later you will die of your own carelessness. These two people are the two people who have the best kung fu under Han Yuanxing, otherwise how can Han Yuanxing rest assured that only two people will be arranged here. Okay, without further ado, hurry up and find something. ”

"Big brother, will the things that the adults want be in this box?" said the short man in black, pointing to a jade box in front of the Han family's ancestral spirit tablet.

"I didn't find it there. Second, don't move!" the tall man in black threw out an iron ball and knocked the short man away.

"Phew...."A black sword pierced directly through where the short man in black stood.

The short man in black slammed into the wooden table.

"Big brother, what do you mean? Don't you want brotherhood for the sake of inviting merit!"

"Second child, if I hadn't saved you, I don't know how you died. Don't waste time, you look at the top of the box yourself, now stand ready to leave at any time, and leave when I get my things. ”

The tall man in black tore off the curtain of the room and threw it on the table of the spiritual tablet, and the moment he rolled up the box, another row of black swords shot out, breaking the curtain.

The man in black exerted his strength again and directly slammed the box into the short man in black.

"Let's go!" said the tall man in black, turning and smashing the window behind him. The short man in black reacted, tied the box with his backhand, and jumped out of the attic with the man in black.

"You know each other," the tall man in black looked back at a tree near the attic and sneered.

.......

"It's not easy to be alive. Chen Yu hid behind a big tree in the back garden and looked up at the hole in the middle of the tree above his head. The sharp weapon just now scared him to death, and it flew over his head.

And when the man in black looked at this side just now, he was sweating a lot, but fortunately they left directly. I can't stay here anymore, there is such a big commotion, someone here in the Marshal's Mansion will definitely check it for a while.

I didn't do anything, don't carry the black cauldron, I can't wash it when I jump into the Yellow River, Chen Yu, who thought of this, turned around and wanted to go back to his room.

"Hey, it hurts. What the hell?!" Chen Yu, who had just turned around, took a long breath. He only felt a hot pain in his thumb, and he bumped into a hard object.

He looked down at the ground, and there was nothing but a thick layer of fallen leaves. No, what is that glowing cold light? Chen Yu touched it with his hand, and there was a head that showed out? Then pull it out.

"Oh, you can't take it out?" Chen Yu, who was furious, immediately bent down, held both hands and used his strength to catch the "culprit" who hit his foot.

He didn't have time to take a closer look, he tightened his grip on his things, hurried back to the house, and faintly, he heard someone coming from the Marshal's Mansion.
