    Liu Yu looked up at the plaque on the door, thought slowly and said, "My lord, it seems that the rich businessman started his family from Mobei Mansion at the beginning, and took the road of doing business on the north-south thoroughfare.  After accumulating a lot of wealth, he quit without warning and brought the money he earned to the county to buy property and land, only to encounter such a tragedy within a few years."

    Gu Juan nodded slightly, and put the plaque back behind the door without any hesitation. He was about to continue inward, but suddenly stopped, and asked with some doubts, "I just realized when I saw this plaque.  We seem to have overlooked one thing, and I don¡¯t know if Liu Qianhu has noticed this inappropriateness.¡±

    Liu Yu opened his mouth, thought slowly and said, "My subordinates didn't find anything, please tell me clearly."

    Gu Juan frowned, turned around and pointed to the front gate of the manor behind, "Liu Qianhu, think about it, how many years ago did Duke Mu get involved in the Tsingyi Sect rebellion?"

    "Returning to my lord, my subordinates don't remember very clearly, but the case of the rich businessman's family's sudden death happened 20 years ago. If we calculate it forward, the Mu Guogong's rebellion case should at least be more advanced, that is,  It's been more than twenty years."

    Liu Yu also suddenly shut up when he said this, and after looking at each other with his two subordinates, his complexion became serious.

    Gu Juan stood at the door, and said in a calm tone, "Have you finally found out that something is wrong?"

    "My lord's eyes are like a torch, and my subordinates admire him."

    Liu Yu first flattered him subconsciously, but then he said in horror, "If it wasn't for your lord just waking up, this subordinate would have ignored such an obvious suspicious point and made a mistake that shouldn't have been made!  "

    He took a deep breath to ease the uneasiness in his heart, "But, but this matter is full of strangeness and weirdness In the memory of my subordinates, the plaque with the words Mu Guogong Mansion and the front door  The two stone carvings of ligers and tigers outside have long been removed following the crimes committed by the descendants of Mu Guogong, and it is impossible for the rich merchants to buy the manor later without doing repairs and decorations. Therefore, the house number and sculptures just seen at the door  "

    Gu Juan raised his hand and stopped Liu Yu's next words.

    Then he turned around abruptly and looked at the bluestone road that he had just passed.

    "Did you hear a rustling sound just now, like sweeping with a broom?"

    Gu Juan narrowed his eyes and asked the people beside him.

    "Rustling sound?" Liu Yu looked puzzled and dazed, "The subordinates have only heard the sound of wind and snow, and have not heard any sound of sweeping the floor"

    Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly closed his mouth, his expression changed drastically, he looked towards the bluestone road, and stammered, "The snow on the road, the footprints we just stepped on, and those few dead branches  , it¡¯s gone.¡±

    "Liu Qianhu, since the caravan disappeared here, how many times have you inspected this place, and what have you found?"

    "Responding to my lord, the subordinates did come to investigate with the heads of the six gates, and the colleagues from the Tiqi Weiwen Division came here behind, but they didn't find anything. Later, they closed the manor  , and found someone to secretly tell some rumors about the haunted place in the streets and alleys, and there was no more content."

    "Well, this place is so close to the city of Beicang County. Properly spreading some rumors can deter most of the idlers. If someone really wants to die, then no one can stop them, right?"

    Gu Juan showed a smile of unknown meaning, as if he suddenly remembered something, and then asked, "Since the incident, when you inspected the manor, did you spend the night there?"

    "Returning to my lord, my subordinates lived in it for three nights, but they were guarded by a large group of people wearing armor and holding knives all night, and I didn't find anything particularly strange But after the counselor from the Department of Strange News came over, he didn't say anything.  He refused to spend the night inside, and his subordinates naturally obeyed the counselor's decision, so they lit two bonfires on the road outside the manor, prepared some wine and meat as a supper, and stayed with him in the wild for a night."

    Liu Yu showed a puzzled expression when he said this, "It's strange to say that in the middle of the night, more than 20 of us were drinking, eating and chatting around two bonfires, when suddenly there was a thick fog, covering the manor.  Seeing this situation, the counselor of the Department of Strange News immediately threw away the flagon, told us to turn around and leave, and went to a further place to observe for a long time, until the thick fog cleared without warning before leaving with a pale face.  "

    "For the next few days, we came here every night and watched the gray mist appear without warning and then dissipate inexplicably. The time of each time was uncertain. Until five days later, the mist never appeared again.The colleague from the Department of Unusual Information went back to report, and warned us not to approach this place again, if it wasn't for your lord coming this time, the subordinates really wouldn't dare to come again"

    "Liu Qianhu has worked hard, and I am very grateful." While talking, Gu Juan's eyes glowed with faint red flames. After observing the bluestone road for a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go back  .¡±

    "Go back" Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had just entered the outer door, and he hadn't even entered the second door. Are he going to turn around and go back?

    However, he was able to take the position of Tiqi Qianhu, so he naturally knew not to say a half sentence that should not be said, and not to ask a half sentence that should not be asked, so he immediately waved his hand and sent the two spies in front of him  After calling back, he walked out of the manor along the bluestone road.

    Several people quickly returned to Beicang City, and after waiting for another half an hour, Ziyuan, who led the team to other places to inquire about news, also came back soon, and met Gu Juan at the Tiqiguard Station, exchanging information with each other.

    Liu Yu prepared a table, and accompanied Gu Juan to drink a feast for the host and guest. It was not until nightfall that the party was finally over, and he personally sent Gu Pan to a quiet and elegant courtyard in the guard house before resigning and leaving.  .

    The sky darkened little by little, and the wind and snow became much heavier than in the daytime. Gu Pan drank a few pots of tea, dressed neatly and stepped out of the room. He glanced at Zi Yuan, who was dressed in hard clothes and leather armor, and exhaled softly.  With a white breath, he said, "Let's go, let's find the most suspicious places one by one."

    He paused at this point, with an expectant smile on his face, "I was at most 30% sure of finding the target, but now with your precious monster-sucking physique following me, how can I soar to more than 60%?"  right."

    "Let's go, let's start with the random graveyard in the east of the city you mentioned, and see what's so special about it."

    Half an hour later, Gu Juan split the pale phantom floating around into two pieces with an axe, enjoyed the trembling feeling of the double value bonus, and then rushed to the next suspicious incident under the leadership of Zi Yuan.  Place.

    Before midnight, the two went round and round, and finally came to the gate of Duke Mu's manor outside the city.

    "Gathering of strange spirits, ghosts walking at night, I am a little confused now, is it because your monster-sucking physique is too strong, or is it because of this manor that they are surrounded by the surroundings of Beicang City, forming a mutual attraction, but  It¡¯s a weird situation where they¡¯re tied to each other.¡±

    It was already approaching midnight, and Gu Juan stood in front of the gate of Mufu Manor again, looking at the liger with half of its head missing on one side, he couldn't help narrowing his eyes slightly.

    He remembered that when he came here in the morning, the angle of the stone sculpture seemed to be different.

    Moreover, the damaged gap of the animal head still showed signs of expansion, and new cracks and fractures appeared on the original basis.

    Silently, the paper man Lingyin was released by him.

    Then a coffin fell from the sky, just facing the gate of the manor.

    "From the ground and the air, the troops will be divided into two groups, and let me explore this garden."

    With Gu Juan's order, groups of paper man warriors rushed out from the portraits hanging in the coffin, and entered the dark gate.

    Immediately afterwards, paper cranes soared into the sky and quickly merged into the snowstorm.

    He waited for a while, and just about to follow the last group of paper man soldiers into the manor, but suddenly squinted his eyes, watching the dark red door creak and shut itself.

    The next moment, Lingyin's expression changed suddenly, "My lord, all the soldiers and paper cranes under the servant's command have lost contact."

    Gu Juan took a deep breath, held the slightly hot handle of the axe, two faint flames ignited in his eyes, and considered whether to set a fire first, to drive away the evil spirit in this obviously problematic garden.

    At this moment, there was a tooth-piercing sound of the door hinge turning, and the closed vermilion door was slowly opened again.

    An old woman with a hunched body appeared on the bluestone road. She held a dilapidated lantern in her left hand and an old broom in her right hand, sweeping the road.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
