Chapter 95
Chapter 95
The crackling fire finally alarmed the people around, and the crowd moved towards Zhang Nansu's house one after another, some were crying, some were discussing, and some were cursing and praying.
Frightened, Zhang Jingyin, who lived by the street, quickly ordered his servants to put out the fire and save people.So everyone gradually organized and started to put out the fire with all hands and feet.
In the woods behind Zhang Nansu's house, two people came.
"My lord... what should we do now?" Uncle Chang asked Shen Luoshu in a low voice.
"Save the child."
"Yes." Without any hesitation, Uncle Chang covered his mouth with a wet towel, put on a wet cloth, and flew into the thick smoke.
In the depths of the woods, there is still one person dormant.He was in the middle of a fire to save people, when he suddenly found that Uncle Chang went in first, so he was happy not to put himself in danger, secretly observing Shen Luoshu's every move, but he saw Shen Luoshu leisurely admiring the moon and stars.
In less than half a moment, Uncle Chang had already jumped out of the flames holding Wan'er, who was choked unconscious by the black smoke, and returned to Shen Luoshu's side.
Shen Luoshu glanced at Wan'er indifferently, and said to Uncle Chang in a low voice, "Take him back to the small courtyard to apply medicine to heal his injuries, and I'll be there later."
Without saying a word, Uncle Chang took the order and left.
Shen Luoshu gently stroked his ears and hair, and suddenly shouted mockingly: "Aren't you coming out yet?"
Mu Chengyou slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and flashed out from his hiding place: "So Luo Shu knew I was coming?"
Shen Luoshu snorted softly, looked at Mu Chengyou coldly, his eyes dimmed: "Don't you feel tired after following us all the way?"
"Not tired, not tired, caring for the safety of beauties has always been my excellent style." Mu Chengyou raised his eyebrows and laughed: "But... I'm really curious, what exactly did you say to Zhang Nansu that night, and in the end set him on fire."
Shen Luoshu slid his eyes to one side, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly: "Do you think I will tell you?"
"With our friendship..." Mu Chengyou said in embarrassment, "I don't think so. But I can guess." Mu Chengyou turned around and turned his back to Shen Luoshu, with one hand on his waist and the other stretching out a finger:
"First, when you went to the Zhang family cemetery that day, you must be looking for evidence of Zhang Nansu's private possession of luggage."
Then hold out the second finger:
"Secondly, as an envoy to suppress chaos, you actually have the right to intervene in it, but you did not arrest him openly, but met in private... This... must be used as a condition for blackmail. Luo Shu, you are not short of money and power , It might be a secret. However, it’s hard to guess what the secret is.”
Then hold out the third finger:
"Third, after you got the secret, you didn't let Zhang Nansu go because of it, but told him that the luggage has been leaked. Zhang Nansu knew that his death was coming, but he chose to arrest him in Yan Mingtang. Obviously, it is to cut off all the clues and cover for the bigger black hands behind the scenes."
After finishing speaking, he shook those three fingers triumphantly, and turned around gracefully and conceitedly: "Am I right?"
But behind him, where there was no shadow of Shen Luoshu, he had already left Mu Chengyou alone here talking to himself.
……
On the other side, Yan Mingtang had already received the news, and rushed over majestically with a team of people.He had already arranged everything. Tomorrow, the troops will be divided into two groups. One team will go to the cemetery, and the other team will come to Zhang Nansu Mansion, just waiting for everyone to get the stolen goods.But he didn't expect that Zhang Nansu would start the fire first, which made him turn pale with shock.
Liu Qiaoyang wanted to ask Luo Rujing about the amethyst stone, but he didn't see anyone. On the way back, he heard that there was a fire in the courtyard of Zhang Nansu's mansion, so he hurried over.
As soon as they rushed over, the crowd immediately saw Ziqing kneeling on the ground, while Mingyan was bandaging the wound on his forehead.Seeing this situation, Liu Qiaoyang thumped in his heart, guessed a little bit, and hurried over to embrace Ziqing, only to hear Ziqing muttering Wan'er's name in a low voice.
The fire was slowly brought under control, and the scene was no longer as chaotic as before.
Yan Mingtang has already received the holy order to catch the thieves and take the stolen goods, but the sinner took the first step to kill him. Someone must have leaked the news, and it is not too late to make arrangements for himself. He must hurry up and seize the stolen goods, otherwise things will change.
He didn't care about being polite, and directly asked Zhang Shilang to lead the way to the Zhang family cemetery.Presumably for a while, the Zhang family will not be able to transfer a large amount of baggage.
But Zhang Shilang blew his beard and stared at him and said: "Good Yan Mingtang! This old man has just experienced the pain of bereavement, but you are fine, and you want to disturb my ancestors. What are you so worried about?"
Yan Mingtang replied solemnly: "You are not afraid of the shadow if you are upright. If the luggage is not in your Zhang family cemetery, I should apologize to you and your ancestors. If it is, hum! Don't blame me for being rude!"
"Hmph! The old man is upright, so I'm not afraid of you ruining it. It's just that I can't do anything that is disrespectful to the ancestors! Besides, the luggage is already elsewhere, so why go to the cemetery?" Zhang Shilang said angrily.
Yan Mingtang sneered sullenly: "Oh? It seems that Mr. Zhang knows where the luggage is. Why don't you take me there to have a look, how about it?"
Zhang Shilang snorted and shouted hoarsely: "Someone is here! Arrest the culprit, Liu Qiaoyang!"
What? ! !All the people present were stunned.
Liu Qiaoyang was at a loss, so he was tied up by Wu Huada, Zhang Shilang's subordinate.
One wave is not flat, and another wave rises again.Before Ziqing could get over the grief of losing Wan'er, she watched Qiao Yang being tied up and taken away in front of her, and immediately followed in a daze.
Liu Qiaoyang signaled to Mingyan in a low voice: "I'm sorry that the Zhang guy can't come up with any new tricks, just watch Ziqing carefully, and I'll let him go and see what tricks he's playing."
Mingyan nodded, and pulled the distraught Ziqing back.
Walking in front of Zhang Shilang, Liu Qiaoyang looked at him sternly, and said sarcastically, "Master Zhang, are you entertaining the common people? I have always been law-abiding and well-run Linglong Zhai, so why would I want to steal luggage?"
Zhang Shilang snorted coldly: "Whether it is true or not, you will know later." Then he said to Yan Mingtang: "Master Yan, how is it? I will take you to the place where the stolen goods are hidden?"
Yan Mingtang didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Zhang Shilang's gourd. He looked at Liu Qiaoyang who was tied up suspiciously, and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry."
Liu Qiaoyang looked at Zhang Shilang's confident look, and couldn't help but frowned, feeling uneasy, but he really couldn't figure out when he fell into his trap.After making up his mind to see what happened, he obediently followed Zhang Shilang Yan inspecting a team of people.
But was led to... his own home?
Before waiting for the servant to come out and open the door, Zhang Shilang led his people to break in and went straight to the rockery in the backyard of Liu Mansion.
Liu Qiaoyang was startled. How could Zhang Shilang know about the hidden entrance of the underground warehouse where his family stored rare goods?So it seems... bad! !
Sure enough, as soon as everyone entered the warehouse, what caught their eyes was the room full of luggage! !
"Come here! Seal Liu's mansion! Without my permission, no one is allowed to leave the mansion. Put Liu Qiaoyang into Zong Zhengsi's prison!" Yan Mingtang waved his hands and ordered loudly.
