For a moment, it was cold and cold. Lan Chen gritted his teeth and tried his best to prevent himself from showing any signs of strangeness.
At the same time, he tried not to glance at the two people opposite him. He felt as if a line of sight was coming from far away, staring at him. If he responded to the line of sight, he would not arouse any suspicion.
At least even Mr. Deng knows how to control himself and not look at himself, so he has to control it no matter what!
In the end, it was Lao Deng who brought Lan Chen back to reality.
"Xuzhou? I've never heard of it, and I've never been to it."
After hearing this, Qiu Jinpeng just shook his head, and then looked away from Lan Chen. Those eyes seemed to be cannibalistic. "Deng Lao is joking, you love to travel all over the country. , if the only impression of Xuzhou is that of coastal commerce, it is not far from Huadu, about a hundred miles to the southeast."
"Oh." Mr. Deng nodded expressionlessly. "When you say this, it seems that you still have some impression. I heard it at the Ministry of Magical Energy in the capital, saying that there is a treasure there?"
"That's it! There is a family in Xuzhou, the Lan family. It is said that their ancestors have been to the forbidden land of foreign tribes, hold secrets, and can command foreign tribes. There are treasures in that old house! Naturally, everything is just a rumor. If you hear it, just hear it. ." Qiu Jinpeng sighed heavily.
He felt it was not worth it to have to mobilize troops and mobilize people like this just for a piece of rumored news.
"Master Situ spent a lot of effort to demote the official Lan Mansion. Who would have thought that the surviving kid still had some skills, but he couldn't get them from the old house, so he wanted to sneak into the old house secretly and look for them."
"You just have to break in. Aren't you the best at this kind of thing?" Mr. Deng said sarcastically.
"Deng Lao's words are serious." Qiu Jinpeng bowed and said, his face facing the ground immediately filled with cold murderous intent.
If it weren't for his lack of strength, he would have to go up and fight to the death!
He just had troubles that he couldn't express, so why was he being insulted like this?
This is a 'rumor' that is hard to distinguish between true and false. In addition, many forces know about this matter. Although they don't keep an eye on it all the time, it can be regarded as 'a move affects the whole body'. They all want to be a 'oriole'. Just wait for someone. Got a head start.
Also, at this ‘juncture’, if there is no one with a deep hatred, who would go to war?
After adjusting his mood, Qiu Jinpeng continued, "In short, I finally found a breakthrough. I wanted to cover up others' eyes, so I made an appointment to come to the temple. I never thought you would come with me."
"Breakthrough?" Mr. Deng raised the corner of his mouth.
He seemed to connect the dots of the situation into all aspects.
It’s fun. You can also give Lan Chen a favor as a favor.
"I haven't asked yet, who is that person? It seems that he is not in the same group as you." Mr. Deng asked.
"This is the 'breakthrough' I'm talking about. This person is Wang Katie, a retainer of the Lan Mansion in Xuzhou. It was our magistrate who caught this big fish."
After hearing this, Hua Wuchang suddenly showed a shy expression, and even started to twist indifferently, and even raised a fist, oh, little fist, and hit Qiu Jinpeng. When he realized something, he stood away in shame. Some, glanced at Mr. Deng like this.
I was shivering and retching, almost vomiting out my last night’s meal, and the tall, seven-foot-tall man actually...
After shaking his head, Lan Chen seemed unable to accept it, but in fact he understood it in his heart. In a sense, these two people were truly upright 'men'.
But Mr. Deng was not so easy to 'fool'. He made a few noises and cursed, "You rabbit! I've noticed something is wrong with you a long time ago. Bah, bah! I'm disgusted to death!"
Hua Wuchang just rolled his eyes. He had heard all kinds of vicious curses, why should he be afraid of this?
He picked his ears and said with disdain, "Have you finished scolding me? After scolding you, you still want to know how I caught this retainer?"
Just when Mr. Deng was about to speak angrily, he suddenly felt someone poking him from behind, and he nodded dejectedly like a defeated rooster.
Although he didn't know what happened, Hua Wuchang was very happy when he saw that even Mr. Deng had "given in". He was dancing with joy when he recounted it.
It was only then that Lan Chen knew the full story of the incident, and he only had one thought in his mind, and that was...
If Katie Wang is 'dirty', then she should be dismissed after she is rescued. No matter how much he 'understands', he will not 'support' him. He would be a fool to keep a 'rabbit' by his side.
To summarize, it turns out that at that time, Hua Wuchang went to the 'Dragon and Tiger Escort Agency' and happened to meet Wang Katie and others who were returning.
At such a young age, it was a big deal, so it was inevitable that he would murmur, and Hua Wuchang heard it, but at that time he was just eyeing 'Yanfang'.
It is said that due to the special nature of Huadu, Hua Wuchang is the prefect on the surface, but in fact, he is half a lackey of the Sun Mansion. Who knows that the Sun Mansion has a huge amount of money and power.
If nothing else, both of them could live in harmony, but the head of the Sun Mansion, Sun Fanfeng, often made fun of Hua Wuchang's "certain orientations".
When he learned that the 'purple dye' had been produced, Hua Wuchang also took the opportunity to kidnap Wang Katie.
There is only one purpose, which is to get the formula, so that when you have the confidence, you can get rid of the Sun Mansion's 'devil's claws'.
But Katie Wang was very strict with her words. No matter how she was interrogated, nothing came out. Not only that, she also did not disclose any information during the subsequent interrogations about the 'Lan Mansion'.
A few days later, Qiu Jinpeng went south to look for "Hua". After learning about this, he suddenly realized that this Yanfang was the property of Xuzhou Lan Mansion. Isn't it possible to build a mansion through Wang Kaidi, a "retainer"?
situation to prepare for the infiltration.
You can even use this to instigate this person and steal the 'treasure'.
But no matter how hard it is, he can't be traced by Mr. Deng.
After hearing this, Mr. Deng nodded. Although he felt it was very verbose and almost dozed off during the process, he also knew that the man behind him was satisfied after thinking about it. It turned out that such a strange thing had happened.
"Then this person is what you call the breakthrough, Katie Wang?"
"It's him. The next step will be torture, even if it's the death penalty. We must get some information, whether it's the Yanfang or the mansion!" Hua Wuchang was so serious that his peach blossom eyes also revealed something different.
Such serious meaning.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Chen felt a chill in his daze. It was like a strange feeling of being suddenly stared at, like a fox, like a wolf, and like a snake hiding in a hidden place.
Subconsciously, he shuddered, and while taking half a step back, his eyes were fixed on Mr. Deng who slowly turned halfway.
The look on Mr. Deng's face was something Lan Chen had never seen before!
