Bai Duo rushed all the way to Ju'an Pavilion. He stood outside the courtyard wall and looked at the dead branches of the peach tree extending from inside. He stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the door.
But he found the door locked and no one answered.
Looking inside through the crack in the door, the courtyard is clean and tidy, with dead branches and leaves piled in the corner, as if someone had just cleaned it.
"It seems that Taoist Cui and the others have not left Fenyin City, they are just away because of something."
Through the small details, Bai Duo finally felt relieved. He was also worried that he had missed a genuine member of the aristocratic family.
Cui Wenzi and Mu Xiaoli might be tight-lipped, but if they were alone with Xifu, with her innocent temperament, she would probably reveal some secrets.
Information gap is a terrible thing. Your vision and knowledge reserve determine whether you will strike first and how far you can go.
Since Zhang Daoling boasted that the family was so supreme and untouchable, Bai Duo naturally had to make plans in advance.
Who knows if he will fight with people from the noble family in the future.
Moreover, Bai Duo vaguely felt that supernatural beings had appeared in Daqian before, but the frequency was very low, and they were secretly eliminated by the spirit removers and the children of the aristocratic family.
The matter was so important that even some low-status court officials did not know it.
For example, these county government officials in Fenyin City, although they are absolute talkers in this corner of the country, are nothing in the vast Daqian Empire.
"Huh? Brother Bai?"
Suddenly a familiar voice called him from behind.
Bai Duo turned around and happened to see the two brothers of the Chen family carrying New Year cakes in their hands, seemingly coming to visit Cui Wenzi.
"Brother Qing, Brother Donghai." Bai Duo also put on an enthusiastic face, hurriedly walked down the steps in front of Ju'an Pavilion, and greeted the two of them with a smile.
Chen Donghai was wearing a luxurious fox-fur brocade suit and a velvet rich man's hat. His temperament became more and more noble, and he looked more and more like the heir to the family business.
Chen Qingzhi's body has also become stronger and majestic, with a white jade crown, maroon robes, and his eyes exuding invisible intimidation.
The whole person is like a battle axe, thick, sharp, and unstoppable.
"Brother Qing broke through Ning Gang?"
Bai Duo closed the character panel with a somewhat incredulous tone. Although they hadn't seen each other for a while and knew that Chen Qingzhi was extremely talented, it was unbelievable that he had improved so quickly without a system.
"The city has not been peaceful recently. Ever since the guards in the house abandoned their master and wanted to rebel, my father also deeply understood that in troubled times, only strength is the real trump card.
Even if you have tons of wealth, if you don't have the corresponding means to protect it, you are just a fat sheep in the eyes of others.
Therefore, in order for me to break through Ning Gang as soon as possible, the mansion spent a lot of money to search for martial arts and heavenly materials and earthly treasures for me. "
Chen Qingzhi made no secret of it. Although he was suspected of using medicine to forcibly improve his martial arts level, with his overlord body, the residual effects of the medicine had probably been eliminated long ago.
Bai Duo had experienced the rarity of the blue entry from Lin Qianye before, and even more than 600 points of dragon and tiger energy could not be imprinted.
Just outrageously expensive.
Soon Chen Qingzhi changed the topic again. He looked at Bai Duo, who was even taller and stronger than him, and said with a wry smile: "Brother, your meager behavior is not enough for you. Although I have been in seclusion, the people in the city Everything was understood when I left the customs.
Brother Bai, the speed of your rise is simply breathtaking. I see that your energy and blood are like a dragon, and your inner energy is as violent as fire. I am afraid you have successfully stepped into Huajin and absorbed the Nanming Lihuo energy, right? "
Bai Duo was slightly startled. The man surnamed Chen that Yao Junsu mentioned that day was indeed Chen Qingzhi. Only someone who has been in contact with Nan Mingli's anger can tell his identity so accurately.
"Brother Chen is right. That day I was knocked off the cliff by Shi Kui, and happened to encounter an ancestor's cave. I escaped from death, broke through and then entered Huajin, and luckily absorbed the energy."
"Falled off a cliff, entered the cave first, broke and then stood up. Brother Bai, you are really lucky."
Naturally, Chen Qingzhi didn't believe it. He was tired of hearing such old-fashioned legends. How could there be so many adventures in the world.
But since Bai Duo has his mouth, he can naturally say whatever he wants. After all, who can say anything about luck? You can't really jump off a cliff and verify the authenticity.
"By the way, you are here to visit Taoist Cui, they are not here." Bai Duo reminded.
The Chen brothers also saw Bai Duo's dilemma standing outside the door, and couldn't help but joked: "Brother Bai, you didn't live in Ju'an Pavilion before, didn't you even have a spare key?
But he made the beautiful woman angry and was kicked out of the house? Hahaha. "
Faced with the teasing of the two people, Bai Duo was a little confused and said: "This courtyard was given to Taoist Cui by the Chen family. How dare I hang on? I only stayed here to protect the two girls.
It's official business, there's no such thing as being kicked out. "
Chen Donghai smiled and said nothing. Who didn't know that Xifu's eyes almost looked like Bai Duo's? Who would believe the two of them if they didn't tell a story.
It's a pity that the beautiful woman has feelings, but the man seems to have no intention of doing so.
The topic quickly turned around, and Chen Donghai suddenly said: "This is not the place to talk. It just so happens that my sister and mother are back. How about we set up a game tonight and have a good get-together?"
"Sister?" Bai Duo hesitated for a moment, and then quickly remembered that there seemed to be a third lady in the Chen family. However, after the Mirror Ghost incident, Chen Yuanweng sent the female family members out of the family to avoid trouble.
Only men are left in the family to defend themselves against the enemy.
"Yes, Brother Bai hasn't seen my sister Wanluo yet, has he? She is giving porridge in the outer city at the moment. Why don't we go and pick her up first, so we can take this opportunity to inspect the epidemic control situation."
Chen Qingzhi suggested.
"What? Why didn't I know about Wanluo going to the outer city to give soup? Didn't you say that she went shopping with Lord Yao's wife?
Could it be that her daughter's house in the outer city was just a casual place to visit? What if she got infected by the plague? "
Chen Donghai became anxious when he heard this.
"It's not like you don't know that our little sister is kind-hearted. Besides, the plague has been controlled by Taoist Cui, and there is a magic medicine that can resist the virus.
The medicine is so effective that it can bring back even a patient who has half a foot in the door of hell. My little sister has already taken it in advance, so you don’t have to worry about it. "
"That's not okay. They are just a bunch of untouchables. You can't send any kindness to them."
"You bastard, what are you talking about?"
Chen Qingzhi interrupted Chen Donghai rudely. During this period, he glanced at Bai Duo calmly. After finding that he had no expression, he breathed a sigh of relief.
And Chen Donghai also realized this. Bai Duo was no longer the little catcher that the Chen family could handle.
He is now one of the talkative people in Fenyin, and he is at the forefront in terms of status and strength.
Now everyone in the city is praising Bai Duo's great achievements. If it is not a show, it shows that Bai Duo may be a person who loves and protects the people extremely.
Calling those infected by the plague "untouchables" in front of him, isn't this causing trouble for the Chen family?
"Brother Donghai is also concerned about chaos. Brother Qing, why are you like this? I just want to see how the situation in the outer city is now, so why don't we come together."
Bai Duo still remembered what Yang Qingze said about the mass fraud of corpses in the outer city. If the plague was really under control, why would this happen again?
It seems that the Yamen is hiding something from the outside world.
Judging from the expressions on the faces of the Chen brothers, they probably didn't even know about the large-scale corpse fraud in the outer city.
Recalling what happened in Dongshan Village before, Bai Duo felt it was necessary to go and see for himself what was going on.
