    Before the ugly dog ??and Xiang Li could bark, Gu Juan had already got off the bed, reached out and picked up the axe.

    He saw a brand new key emitting a pale yellow light. Not only was it free from mottled rust, but even the two parts cut off by the ax blade were connected without any cracks.

    "It's kind of interesting."

    Gu Juan thought for a moment in silence, and then he dropped the ax again, hitting the brand new key.

    There was a crisp click.

    He watched it expressionlessly shattered into countless fragments, then gradually became blurred, and quickly dissipated into the air without leaving any traces.

    Xiang Li was stunned and stammered, "Uh this is very likely to be the key to solve the puzzle, and was it destroyed by my father without hesitation?"

    However, Gu Juan didn't show any regrets, put away the ax and yawned, "This kind of so-called clue whose origin is unknown and who came to us specifically, don't mind it."

    He paused at this point, and continued in a very uncomfortable manner, "You also know that what I am most annoying about is searching for secrets and solving puzzles, so these fools who pretend to be sophisticated have pierced my heart  The softest sore spot is not as refreshing as smashing it with an ax."

    "You two clear up the table, clean the house, and rest well. We will go to Liu Qianhu tomorrow morning to find out more about the situation."

    Early the next morning, Gu Juan left the post house, took Xiang Li and the ugly dog ??with him, and followed the location Liu Yu said in his memory all the way to Liu Yu's mansion with a thousand households.

    Standing in front of the gate of the rather well-built house, Gu Juan looked at the closed wooden door, and raised his head to glance at the plaque hanging above it.

    "Beicang Liu's Mansion." He read the words above, but a strange feeling arose in his heart.

    This door plaque seems to be too dirty, covered with a layer of plaster, as if no one has cleaned it for a long time.

    Liu Yu, as a thousand households of Tiqi in the city of Beicang County, his status is not low. He is only under a few people such as the governor of Beicang County. However, Tiqi also secretly collects intelligence and investigates.  So if you count it seriously, even the governor of Beicang will sell him a lot of face. He is definitely a real big shot in this city.

    But now the gate of Liu Yu's mansion looks dilapidated no matter how you look at it, which doesn't match his status at all.

    And judging from several contacts, Liu Yu is definitely not that kind of sloppy character. How could he allow the front of his mansion to be dirty like this?

    Could it be that he misremembered the address Liu Yu said and found another rich family with the same surname Liu?

    Gu Juan stood in front of the closed door, frowned slightly, and knocked on the door knocker after a moment of silence.

    Boom boom boom.

    The metal door knocker slammed against the door one after another, and the sound was heard far away in the wind and snow.

    "Young master, who are you looking for?"

    There was a violent coughing sound from far away in the alley, and after a while, an old man in a thick cotton coat and holding an oil-paper umbrella slowly came forward.

    Gu Juan lightly touched the handle of the axe, and two red flames and green fires ignited in his eyes, swept across the old man, then turned around, showing a gentle smile.

    There was no response from the wild knife, and no abnormalities were found when the red flames and green fires came out, so it was an ordinary old man who was walking over to talk.

    Quietly, a hazy light flashed in his eyes, he looked at the old man at close range, and asked, "Old man, I am a colleague of Liu Qianhu, and I am going to visit Brother Liu when I pass by on business this time.  Is it Liu Qianhu's house?"

    The old man stared into Gu Juan's eyes for a long time, and finally sighed in a low voice, with a hint of sadness in his tone, "The old man's surname is Liu Mingbai, and he is the uncle of this Liu Qianhu. Because of Lord Qianhu's pity,  So let my family feed those horses as a meal for me"

    "Oh, this is indeed Liu Qianhu's mansion, but Mr. Qianhu disappeared a long time ago, and then his wife and other people in the mansion returned to their original places one after another. This mansion is just vacant  It's broken down."

    "Later, a guy who looked like a rascal came over and insisted that he was a distant relative of Mr. Qianhu and wanted to live in this house. The old man couldn't stop him, so he had to let him in. He was about to come back the next day.  I went to report to the officials, but I didn¡¯t expect the rogue to run out of it as soon as it got dark, running around like crazy, and finally fell down and died.¡±

    "Old and oldI am weak and a little timid, so when the official servants came to ask, I didn't dare to say anything, I just pretended that I didn't know anything"

    "Are you sure you're not telling lies?" Gu Juan frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he asked again, "When did Liu Yu disappear?"

    The old man shook his head slowly, "Everything I said is true, I dare not lie to the young master in any way."

    "If you want to say when Lord Qianhu disappeared, the old man really has some impressions. I still remember that he was also a friend. It was a general from a certain military town who came to look for him. After drinking, Lord Qianhu let me  After preparing the horses, I went out of the city with the general, and the master came back alone, and disappeared suddenly after a while."

    Gu Juan stood silently in front of the door, silently looking at the old man in front of him, and suddenly wanted to laugh.

    Tiqi Qianhu Liu Yu disappeared, and that Liu Qianhu who went to Mufu Manor with him yesterday to investigate the situation was actually said to be missing, and more importantly, he had been missing for a long time

    Gu Juan thought this was the funniest joke he heard today, and it was a joke that made people laugh so hard that they couldn't laugh anymore.

    After a few breaths, he calmed down, looked away from the old man's face, and carefully observed everything around him. He found that not only the door plaque was filthy, but other places were also covered with a thick layer of dust.  Some places were eroded by wind and snow, and they all turned into dry and hard stains.

    After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Where does the old man live?"

    "The old man lives in the two wooden houses on the other side of the alley. He always thinks that when Master Qianhu will come back, there must be someone waiting for him here, who can open the door for him and talk about what happened, so he  It never went far."

    Gu Juan nodded slightly, and instead of entering the door to investigate, he turned around and left.

    With the passage of time and the development of the incident, he found that the whole thing became more and more confusing, making it impossible for him to see the truth. Even if he went in directly, it would be difficult to find the vital point of this strange incident.  It is even more impossible to grasp the main contradiction and break it.

    Therefore, it is better to take a step back for the time being and quietly wait for the further development of the situation, and perhaps find more clues from it.

    After walking a certain distance, he stopped again, turned around and said to the old man, "I am the official who came from the capital to deal with the case of Liu Qianhu's disappearance, so the old man might as well come with me and have a glass of soju at my residence."  Warm and warm, and by the way, I can talk more about things related to Liu Qianhu."
