Chapter 73 Ranking Fourth

After waiting for another stick of incense, the steward hurried out of the Hou Mansion and said to Xu Zun and his wife:

"You two, please come in!"

Seeing that he was approved, Xu Zun smiled with satisfaction and stepped into the Hou Mansion.

Gulu...

Zhao Yu swallowed his saliva and first looked up at the towering gate of the Hou Mansion with a timid look on his face.

Then, he followed Xu Zun in...

at the same moment.

Far away from the gate of the Hou Mansion, Wu Zheng, Ranlin and others were very surprised to see that Xu Zun and the others were actually allowed to enter the Hou Mansion.

But they didn't know what Xu Zun said to the steward?

"Boss," one of his soldiers asked, "they have already gone in, do we still have to wait for them?"

"Tsk tsk..." Ran Lin stood up and wanted to leave, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he said to the soldier, "I'd better wait! You go and report to our captain first, I will always

I feel that this punishment in Tangzhou is a bit unkind!"

"Yes!" The soldier immediately mounted his horse and returned to the camp to report the news.

Needless to say, the grandeur of the Marquis's residence, with its carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and pavilions, is always beautiful in the cold winter.

But as soon as Xu Zun and Zhao Yu entered, before they had time to appreciate the beautiful scenery, their eyes were attracted by a person who came to greet them.

This man is wearing a bagua robe, a purple gold crown on his head, and holding a green dust in his hand. He is actually a Taoist priest!

But when I saw this man, he had bright eyebrows and sword-like eyes. He had an immortal spirit. He didn’t look very old, but his eyebrows were all white!

Holy shit!

Xu Zun sighed inwardly, is this the White-Eyebrowed Hero?

"Hahaha, Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!" The Taoist shook his head, bowed respectfully to Xu Zun and said, "It turns out that Lord Tixing from Tangzhou is here. Welcome, hehehe..."

this……

Xu Zun and Zhao Yu looked at each other. They never expected that the person receiving them in the Hou Mansion would actually be a Taoist priest?

However, no matter who he is, he is actually polite to a low-level official like himself in the Marquis Mansion, and he is obviously a very well-educated person.

"Excuse me, excuse me!" Xu Zun quickly returned the courtesy and asked, "Excuse me, are you..."

"Oh," the Taoist priest smiled slightly, "I am the guardian of the Marquis House in Changping. Because both the Marquis and the housekeeper are out looking for the young lady, I have no choice but to entertain her on my behalf!"

Mr. Nursing Home?

Is he the security captain?

"Wei Bei, a poor Taoist," the Taoist priest introduced himself, "I wonder what the purpose of your visit today is..."

"ah!?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Taoist priest said his name, Zhao Yu suddenly trembled and almost knelt on the ground.

"You...are you Taiqing Wei Beihui?" Zhao Yu asked in surprise, then quickly bowed and clasped his fists, bowing to the end, "I didn't expect it to be Master Wei Tianshi. I have admired my name for a long time, and I have admired my name for a long time!"

Um?

Xu Zun searched his memory, but found no relevant information.

"I've long heard of your heroic deeds of chivalry and helping people in need," Zhao Yu said, bowing repeatedly, "I'm lucky enough to meet the Heavenly Master today. I'm really lucky in three lifetimes! I'm lucky in three lifetimes!"

"Hey...Young man Meng Lang is nothing to mention," Wei Bei replied with a smile, "My lord, I am so embarrassed that I don't deserve the compliment, hehe..."

"Anyway, being able to see the true face of the Heavenly Master will be enough for me, Zhao, to brag about!"

Zhao Yu's eyes shone brightly, and he looked exactly like a fan seeing his idol.

"Two adults," Wei Bei asked back, "just now you asked someone to deliver a message, but you don't know what you said? I heard what you meant, there seems to be a mystery in these words!"

Wei Bei said this, and the conversation immediately got to the point.

Xu Zun said: "That's it. I suspect that there is another reason for the disappearance of the young lady, so I took the liberty to disturb the house. I also asked the Heavenly Master to trouble me. Can you allow me to investigate at the house?"

"Oh... that's it," Wei Bei thought for a moment and said, "I wonder, how are you going to investigate?"

"I need to see where the young lady lives on a daily basis," Xu Zun said bluntly, "I also need to find all the servants, maids and guards who are familiar with the young lady for questioning."

"This..." Wei Bei replied, "Pindao can't make the decision anymore, so let Pindao go and inform his wife.

"Madam is eager to save her daughter, so she will definitely cooperate with you! But..." he turned to say, "Whether it is the Marquis himself or the police in the city, they have already interviewed these people! I don't know, sir.

What new calculations are there?"

"Report to the Heavenly Master," Xu Zun replied simply, "No!"

"This..." Wei Beihui was greatly surprised.

“However,” Xu Zun said, “just because you don’t have an idea, doesn’t mean you can’t solve the case.

"The Heavenly Master is a sensible person. He wouldn't dare to come to the Marquis Mansion to cause trouble even if I had the courage to do so. Since he is here, there must be a reason." He said bluntly, "Actually, I came here this time to confirm an idea of ​​mine.

, if it can be determined, it will be of great help in solving the case!

"If someone is really obstructing my handling of the case, it will coincide with Xu's guess, which means that the Miss's disappearance is too deep..."

"This..." Wei Beihui looked embarrassed.

Xu Zun's words were too lethal. It meant that whoever obstructed his investigation would be involved in the disappearance of the young lady. No one could bear the crime.

"Okay!" Wei Bei nodded in agreement, "Please come with me, I'll report to Madam and ask her to make a decision..."

After saying that, Wei Bei led the two of them to the backyard and asked them to wait in a garden while he went to report inside the house.

"Hey, Old Zhao," Xu Zun asked hurriedly when he saw no one around, "What's the background of this old Taoist? Why did the palace hire an old Taoist to be the guardian?"

"Oh, he has a great background!" Zhao Yu replied hurriedly, "This man comes from the Taiqing Sect. Since his debut, he has been a chivalrous person all over the world, generous and generous, and fights against injustice. He is very famous.

"It is said that he uses a pair of iron wolf flying claws, and his martial arts skills are so strong that he is almost invincible!

"Some people in the martial arts world have made a ranking in the entire Tangzhou, and they believe that Wei Beihui's martial arts is enough to rank among the top ten masters in Tangzhou. Some even say that he ranks fourth!"

"I'll go," Xu Zun pinched his chin and said, "Why does it sound so unreliable? Why is he ranked fourth when he is almost invincible?"

"Ahem, it's just people making random comments," Zhao Yu said, "Not all of these masters have played against each other, so this ranking can only be based on assumptions or inferences.

"But having said that, in my eyes, if you can rank fourth in Tangzhou, you are already invincible!"

"Oh, what about Huo Anu?" Xu Zun was curious, "Where can she be ranked?"

"Don't make trouble, sir," Zhao Yu covered his face, "Even if that fake Qiu Yongnian is here, I'm afraid he won't be able to make it into the top ten, right?"

"Ah?" Xu Zun was greatly surprised, "Is it so outrageous?"

Suddenly, Xu Zun had the illusion that he was in a martial arts world!

He was still thinking before that since he could fight Huo Anu a few times, could he be considered a little master?

But now it seems that the real master is simply out of reach.

While the two were discussing, Wei Beihui had already walked out of the house and said to them:

"Ma'am, please come in and follow me!"

After hearing the message, the two hurriedly walked towards the inner house.

Zhao Yu played the drums while walking, thinking that it would be fine if Xu Zun and others found clues today, but if they couldn't find anything, it would be difficult for them to explain...
