On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1916 This is not the work of thieves

Liu Jiulang felt that this feeling was very contradictory. The luxurious courtyard and the desolate feeling were inherently contradictory.

But it feels like that.

Until he reached the front of the house, Ding Hengshou staggered and held on to the pillar under the corridor.

"You'll know for sure if you go in and take a look."

Liu Jiulang glanced at him, ignoring his weakness, and thought that old people are really useless. A little blow can make them become like this, and they look ten years older in an instant.

When he pushed the door open and saw the situation in the room, Liu Jiulang's heart skipped a beat.

The room was empty, and when I opened the door, a gust of wind blew in my face.

This wind carries with it a sense of desolation, the kind of desolate feeling that comes after the prosperity and bustle have passed.

Really empty.

Liu Jiulang felt that he had never seen such an empty house since he could remember.

There is nothing except walls, doors and windows.

Even speaking can produce an echo.

He had seen with his own eyes how luxurious Ding Hengshou's house was.

It took me a long time to come back to my senses.

It turned out that what the constable said was true.

When I heard it at the time, I thought it was an adjective, but now it seems to be realism.

It's amazing.

"How could this happen?" he asked subconsciously.

Ding Hengshou shook his head and thought to himself, I still want to know, but can it be like this now if I want to know?

Liu Jiulang looked into the house and said, "This doesn't look like the work of a thief."

Ding Hengshou looked up and said, "He's not a thief? Who would steal if he's not a thief?"

"Stealing?" Liu Jiulang pondered. "This doesn't look like stealing. You've been an official for so many years. You've seen and heard of it. Who would steal something like this?"

"Or, does anyone have this ability?"

"According to what you said, when you went out to have fun in the yard, nothing inside the house changed, everything was the same as before. Later, when you wanted to go back to the house to rest, you found that the house was empty."

"It only takes a little over an hour."

"Who could have stolen everything from the entire house in just over an hour, right under your nose? If it was just gold and silver treasures, it would be fine, but they even stole furniture, beds, wardrobes, all of which are heavy and bulky, and you didn't hear a single sound. How is that possible?"

Ding Hengshou had been in grief and unable to think, but now listening to what he said, it brought back some memories.

"You're right, but what is it?"

Liu Jiulang pondered: "Perhaps, it is a warning from the gods, some kind of punishment."

Ding Hengshou was very excited, and the supernatural things were the most frightening.

Liu Jiulang looked him over and asked, "Have you done anything to displease the gods?"

"No, no, I'm just like before, having fun in this yard, and I don't go out to harm anyone, so how could I..."

Ding Hengshou's voice was filled with fear: "How about I go and pay my respects to the water god?"

"Don't rush for now," Liu Jiulang thought, "We need to consider this matter in the long run."

Those people have not been found yet. If we offer sacrifices to them now and something goes wrong, it will be even more troublesome.

Ding Hengshou said, "Can this... be faster? I really can't wait."

Liu Jiulang's words gave him a glimmer of hope. What if the gods were really angry? What if he could return all his things to him by offering sacrifices?

Liu Jiulang said coldly: "Why are you in such a hurry? It's just a few valuables."

Ding Hengshou's throat choked - it was just a small amount of money, it was easy to say.

He thought for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "To be honest, there's more than just these lost. There's also..."

Before he finished speaking, the lawyer walked quickly into the courtyard.

"Sir, outside..."

The master didn't finish his words, but when he saw Liu Jiulang, he swallowed the rest of his words.

Liu Jiulang glanced at him and the master immediately lowered his head guiltily.

"In that case, I'll step aside first." Liu Jiulang said lightly.

He said it, but didn't move.

Ding Hengshou glared at his advisor: "Are you mute? What are you hesitating about? Is there anything that the Ninth Young Master cannot hear? Tell me now."

The master dared not hide it any longer: "The Eighth Young Master sent someone."

Ding Hengshou choked and wanted to curse his master - what a fool! He was talking about the Eighth Young Master in front of the Ninth Young Master. Wasn't he just asking for embarrassment?

The lawyer is full of grievances. I don’t want to say it or not, but you force me to say it, and you are unhappy when I say it.

Liu Jiulang said indifferently: "In that case, call the person in. I also want to know what Bage sent them here for."

Ding Hengshou forced a smile.

Liu Jiulang was about to speak when the feeling of being stared at came back.

He tilted his head and looked over immediately.

The branches shook, and it seemed as if a black object flashed.

The speed was very fast, and at the same time as the black thing flashed, there seemed to be some bright sparkling light.

what is that?

……

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe were outside the gate when Myna came back with a recorder.

"Walk."

Yan Ruyu put the bird recorder into the space, took Huo Changhe with her and turned to leave.

Only when they reached a quiet place with no one around did Yan Ruyu take out the recorder.

Connect the headphones and each person wears one.

The sounds inside were very mixed, including the sound of the starling flying with the recorder, the sound of the wind, and the sound of leaves.

Huo Changhe looked surprised. It was the first time he heard so many voices. He heard them often but always ignored them.

It's a lot of fun.

After listening for a while, I finally heard voices from inside.

"With such a big commotion, of course I have to come."

“…I want to hear you say it.”

"No more, all gone."

The voice was intermittent, but could be barely heard. Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe looked at each other and realized that this was a conversation between Ding Hengshou and Liu Jiulang.

"It doesn't look like stealing."

"It's a warning from God, some kind of punishment."

"Shall I go and pay my respects to the water god?"

Later, there were footsteps. Someone came and said that it was sent by the Eighth Young Master.

Liu Jiulang's voice sounded unhappy; the two of them were indeed not getting along.

Yan Ruyu took off her headphones and said, "Water God, they really do believe in this."

"It seems that Hu San from the Water God Temple in this small town is indeed in cahoots with them," Huo Changhe took over the conversation, "these beasts."

"The two brothers don't get along, which is a good opportunity for us."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "Then add fuel to the fire."

……

The two of them left in a leisurely manner, but Ding Hengshou felt very uneasy.

He met the people sent by Liu Balang in the front hall. Liu Jiulang was just outside the corner door, separated by a curtain.

He secretly complained in his heart, but couldn't say it out loud.

"What's the matter, Eighth Young Master?" he asked weakly.

The visitor curled his lips and asked, "My master asked me to ask what's going on in the streets?"

"It's just... some things were stolen from the mansion," Ding Hengshou replied.

He now felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have looked for someone so openly in such a rage.

However, even if we keep the search secret, we won't be able to hide it for long, and the Liu family will find out sooner or later.

"What was lost?"

"I have nothing left in my room," Ding Hengshou made up his mind.

If you stretch out your head, it's a knife, if you shrink your head, it's also a knife.

It’s better to tell it sooner and get rid of it sooner.

"Just a few things in the house, it shouldn't cause such a big fuss, right?" The visitor said nonchalantly and full of arrogance.

Ding Hengshou was dissatisfied that a servant was so arrogant in front of him.

If it weren't for Liu Balang's sake, this servant, who is so lowly, would not be worthy to speak in front of him!
