Gu Juan looked at the manor shrouded in wind and snow from a distance, feeling the chill from the wind, frowned slightly and said, "The wealthy businessman's family you mentioned just died for no reason, when did this happen? ?¡±
Liu Yu said directly without any hesitation, "If you go back to your lord, it must have been more than twenty years."
"Twenty years?" Gu Juan looked at him suspiciously, "Liu Qianhu, are you sure it's twenty years, not two years?"
You must know that when Luo came out of the mountain, it was only a few short years when he first discovered that the world had changed and the strange news appeared. As a result, it took Liu Qianhu 20 years to open his mouth. attention and suspicion.
"The subordinates are sure that it will be twenty years. If you are interested, there are files to check, and there are many old people in the city who have impressions of this matter. It should not be fake."
Gu Juan nodded, and suppressed his doubts first, "I see, you continue."
Liu Yu recalled and said slowly, "My lord, this matter has not ended here. Since the accident, this garden has been vacant until the only young girl left by the wealthy businessman grows up and marries the Jingbei army. The lieutenant general of Zhen Daying became a concubine, but there has been a new change in this matter."
"Oh? What's the name of the deputy general?" Gu Juan stopped and asked when he heard that he suddenly remembered a certain record in the anthology record.
"The deputy general's surname is Xie Mingkui, and he knows his subordinates well just two years ago, he suddenly came to Beicang City, and he brought a charming woman with him. The subordinates treated him to dinner as a gesture of the landlord's friendship. After drinking for a while, when he was very drunk, he asked the woman to come out to toast, and until then, his subordinates didn't know that she was a descendant of the rich businessman."
"Xie Kuiyes, it's Xie Kui." Gu Juan squinted his eyes, and he had already matched the name with the record in the Record of Strange News, and knew exactly what happened afterwards.
However, since there was a person involved here, he still listened carefully, at least he could obtain much more detailed information than the brief description in the annals collection.
"Then Vice-General Xie declined his subordinate's offer to help him arrange accommodation, saying that he came to Beicang County this time mainly to bring Xinna's third wife to pay homage to his ancestors, and he didn't need to stay overnight. After finishing his business, he would go back overnight"
"The subordinate didn't ask in detail at the time, and didn't keep them after drinking. After recalling the incident later, it occurred to me that whether it was Xie Kui or the team of soldiers he brought, there seemed to be some Something is not right, their reactions seem to be slowed down when they are drinking, and their movements are a little uncoordinated"
"Later, it never occurred to me that a group of more than ten of them, including a lieutenant general of the military town and a group of elite soldiers, were all hanged under the gate of the manor, except for his Xinna three lady¡¡"
While listening, Gu Juan walked slowly along the muddy dirt road, and from time to time asked a few questions about places of interest, and in this way, he came to the main gate of the manor not long after.
Standing in front of the gate of the manor, Gu Juan looked at the dilapidated gate wall, and glanced up at the plaque hanging above the main gate.
"Duke Mu's Mansion." He read out the somewhat blurred handwriting on it.
In front of the somewhat faded vermilion gate, there are two ligers roaring upwards. According to the information he has, the first Mu Guogong followed the Great Wei Taizu in the Southern and Northern Wars. Wei Taizu personally praised that he was as brave as a liger, so after he was granted the title of Duke, he used the liger as his family's sacred beast, and most of the children in the family also named it after the liger.
The liger on the left side of the gate has lost half of its head, and the only remaining eye part has become a big black hole, which looks a bit creepy.
Gu Juan stood at the door for a while, waiting for the Tiqi spies from Beicang City to cooperate to tear off the seal on the door, and then opened the door.

The two spies worked hard with the key for a while, their foreheads were sweating, but they still couldn't open the rusty chain lock, so they pulled out their waist knife in desperation, and chopped it off several times. .
Following the creaking sound, the vermilion door was slowly pushed open, revealing the dilapidated scene inside that had not been repaired for a long time.
Gu Juan walked slowly to the door, and before he entered, he could feel a cold and corrupt atmosphere gushing out from inside.
Behind the door is a straight road paved with bluestone slabs, leading to the pond and rockery in the distance. There are dense bamboos and various shrubs growing on both sides of the road. It looks like a vegetable field or a garden, maybe Due to long-term unmanagement reasons,?It looks rough and messy.
Behind the rockery is a gatehouse that looks quite luxurious, and behind it is a patchwork of buildings, standing silently in the whistling wind and snow, giving people a cold and gloomy feeling.
"Has no one lived here since then?" Gu Juan walked slowly into the outer gate, and stood on the bluestone road that was looming under the ice and snow.
"Returning to my lord, this garden has been idle for less than two years since the Mu family incident happened, and it was bought by a wealthy businessman for several years, and it has been idle. At first, there were some beggars, hooligans, businessmen, or People from the rivers and lakes in the past stayed here overnight, and some people disappeared from time to time, but they didn't pay attention to it"
"Until the case of Lieutenant General Xie Kui two years ago, and a year ago when a large caravan with dozens of horses and horses mysteriously disappeared inside, and only a few people escaped, no one dared to go in again."
Click!
Gu Juan stepped on a bamboo branch that fell on the road, and there was a crisp sound from the bottom of his feet, which echoed continuously in the courtyard.
He lowered his head to look at the bluestone road that had not yet been completely covered by snow, supported the bamboo hat on his head, and asked, "Liu Qianhu, did you find anything?"
Liu Yu's expression changed suddenly, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "My lord, there seem to be people living in this manor."
The snow on the bluestone road is not too thick, and the road below is exposed in many places. More importantly, the exposed bluestone road is not muddy, and there are even few dead branches and leaves on it.
For a manor that has been abandoned for a long time, this situation is abnormal. The only possibility is that it is inhabited and cleaned frequently.
But looking at the messy bamboo forests and shrubs on both sides of the road, they don't look like they are inhabited, giving people a rather weird feeling.
"Let's go, since everyone is here, let's go in and have a good time."
Gu Juan stopped in the middle of the Qingshi Road for a long time, his right hand hidden in the cloak lightly touched the warm and cold handle of the axe, and there was no change in fever, so he took the lead and continued to walk forward.
The two Tiqi scouts quickened their pace and opened the door leading to the inner courtyard ahead of them.
Gu Juan stepped over the gatehouse and looked further inside.
As far as the eye can see, the outside is covered with thick snow, while other places such as corridors, pavilions, door openings, etc., are piled up with thick dead branches and fallen leaves, as well as a layer of hardened dust, spreading everywhere. It smells of decay and decay.
"Liu Qianhu, it looks like an abandoned old house now." Gu Juan sighed lowly, took out a plaque with missing corners from behind the door, knocked off a layer of loose dirt on it, Read out word by word the blurred characters on it.
