Speaking of Yuhua Building, Yuhua Building is located in the bustling area of ​​Yunmo City. The two-story attic has a lobby downstairs and private rooms upstairs.

There are two auxiliary buildings behind the main building, the East Wing Building and the West Wing Building. The East Wing Building is for guest rooms, and the West Wing Building is for other people to live in. Baili Mo has a special room for handling things, which is located on the back of the second floor of the main building. Today,

, are receiving a special person - King Yu.

Prince Yu was the third son of the late emperor. He was close to his aunt Yunluan Changdiji when he was young, so he also maintained a good relationship with Taohuajian and others. Yunmo City was a city under his fiefdom, and he would be there whenever anything happened.

I wanted to go to Yuhualou, but Baili Mo wouldn't stop me. If I didn't, I wouldn't want to deal with it.

Prince Yu looked at Baili Mo, who kept his head down and was only doing his own thing. He couldn't help but knock on the table, trying to attract attention. Who would have thought that Baili Mo couldn't tolerate his princely temper, so he raised his eyes and looked at him, but still ignored him.

"It's not good for you to be like this. After all, I am also a prince. Isn't Yuhualou's hospitality not good for me?" Prince Yu said.

Baili Mo was writing a letter just now. When he finished writing, he put down his pen and said, "It doesn't work. The prince wants to find Qing Yan, so he will wait for Qing Yan to come back in a few days and then talk to her about the past."

After hearing this, King Yu quickly waved his hand: "No, no, that girl becomes more and more unstable as you become more stubborn. Who knows how she will feel when she comes back this time."

King Yu seemed to be afraid of something in his words, which aroused Baili Mo's curiosity and asked: "Your Majesty, is he trying to attract that girl again?" After a pause, she thought about what if Gu Qingyan knew that King Yu described her temperament as "unstable".

, then Gu Qingyan may really have to give King Yu a gentle breeze and drizzle.

Unconsciously, Wang Yu laughed so hard that his head went numb: "Asking her to do this, because Yuan Zhao has a different identity, I sent a few people to follow her. Sooner or later, she will find out. Don't look back and think that I am spying on her.

"

Since the death of the fifth prince, the new emperor has begun to change the blood of the court overtly and covertly. Yuan Zhao has become more and more low-key in the court, almost becoming invisible. I think Yuan Zhao had already had a premonition that no one else knew what happened back then.

All powerful parties will keep this in mind.

Now, using the excuse of secretly concealing his disloyalty, King Yu found Gu Qingyan and told her to do whatever she wanted, as long as she didn't expose herself.

Ever since she grew up, Gu Qingyan didn't like others to interfere in matters that came into her own hands. Prince Yu wanted to borrow a few people to accompany Gu Qingyan, but they were rejected, so he sent a few people to follow her secretly. But who was Gu Qingyan?

It is impossible to be discovered.

Baili Mo understood and said: "That girl has her own sense of propriety, not to mention that as long as your people don't hinder her, she won't do anything." To this day, I think the matter over there is over, and I haven't heard of Gu Qingyan killing him.

other people.

King Yu said: "That's true. I also left someone to finish the work, so she doesn't have to worry about it herself." This self-comfort is quite good, but this is exactly what Gu Qingyan had in mind.

While the two men were chatting, Fu Chong, the general manager of Yuhua Building, knocked on the door and came in: "Prince Yu, Third Master."

Baili Mo nodded and asked, "What's the matter?" Fu Chong handed over a booklet, which was about the inquiries or other transactions that Yuhualou received this month.

When doing business in Yuhua Building, you need to ask for a piece of letterhead from the front desk clerk, write down what you need, and then hand it over to the clerk. The clerk will sort out the letterhead and hand it over to the general manager every day. The general manager will select some valuable items and submit them every seven days.

Give Baili Mo the final decision and confirm the transaction with Baili Mo's valuation. Then the general manager notifies the manager to send someone to the door to notify the person who needs it and inform them of the remuneration. After reaching an agreement and collecting the deposit first, Yuhualou will assign the task and promise to do so within seven days.

After the results are given, the remaining reward will be collected. If no agreement is reached, it will be abandoned. At the end of each month, Fu Chongbian will take the summary and give it to Baili Mo.

Baili Mo took the brochure, saw that there was nothing wrong with it, gave it to Fu Chong, and then said: "The quantity will be halved next month. When the fourth girl comes back, we will go to Qingquan Villa and then return to Peach Blossom Stream for a while. You make your own decision.

.”

Fu Chong took the order and said: "Just now the news came from Langjiang that the four girls have finished their work and can come back tomorrow."

Baili Mo nodded, then turned to King Yu and said, "I just saw in the inventory that King Yu's transaction has yet to be completed, and the remaining remuneration has not yet been paid. Now that it has been completed, it is time for King Yu to clear the account."

King Yu just picked up the tea, took a sip, and said calmly: "Clear it, clear it immediately, and I will ask the people below to bring the banknotes that should be sent." He couldn't forget how long ago he had to wait.

He was almost half a year old, but one day he was caught by Baili Mo, and all the people in Prince Yu's Mansion who came into Baili Mo's eyes were removed from him. Before he could say anything, he was spotted by Baili Mo.

After touching the acupuncture points, he was really unable to get angry after talking about the principle of honest trading.

Seeing that the time was almost up, King Yu was about to get up and leave. Baili Mo saw off the guests. As soon as he returned to the house, he saw Xi Jue at the door: "Third Master, the Second Master sent a message asking the Third Master to go to the deep valley bamboo forest."

The Valley Bamboo Forest is not far from Yunmo City. It is a mountain forest with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It is also called the Valley Bamboo Forest because it is full of bamboos. "Where is the second master?" Baili Mo asked. Zong Yue would return to the imperial capital every autumn this season.

I went to visit home and calculated the time. Zong Yue should be on his way back to Peach Blossom Stream now, but he ended up in the deep valley bamboo forest.

Xijue followed Baili Mo into the house and said, "Second Master is also heading there. I didn't say anything else clearly."

Baili Mo frowned. Although he didn't understand what Zong Yue was doing, he then thought that Zong Yue would always take Nan Ke with him when he went back to visit relatives. If he wanted to ask him this time, he might have really encountered something, so he ordered Xi Jue: "

Bring a few people with you and come with me." After a pause, he said, "Go and tell Fu Chong that if the fourth girl comes back tomorrow, let the fourth girl pack the things to take to Qingquan Villa first."

"Yes." Xi Jue retreated, gave orders to Fu Chong, and took four ghost guards with him to wait for Baili Mo in front of Yuhua Tower.

Zong Yue returned to Beijing to visit relatives. On the way back, he met his friend Chen Su, whom he had not seen for a long time. Seeing that he looked extremely anxious, Zong Yue asked Chen Su a few more questions and found out that Chen Su now has a son and a daughter.

He was living a secluded life, but one day his two children disappeared, so Chen Su went out to look for them. He had been looking for them for almost five or six days. All he knew was that the two children were being taken south, so Chen Su searched for them all the way.

.

Zong Yue heard that fortunately there were scattered spots in Taohua Stream and Yuhua Building, so he also arranged for people to inquire together. Later, news came that someone had seen a group of people with several children in the direction leading to the bamboo forest in the valley.

Going to the deep valley bamboo forest, there was a boy and a girl who matched Chen Su's description, so Zong Yue changed his route and went to the deep valley bamboo forest with Chen Su.

Later, Nanke, who followed Zong Yue, told Zong Yue that there were often missing children in the bamboo forest in the valley in the past two years, but some children were usually found within seven days, so the adults always thought that

The child just ran into the bamboo forest and got lost.

So the adults in the surrounding villages and towns later stopped letting the children go to the other side of the bamboo forest in the valley. Zong Yue thought about it carefully and felt that something was wrong. It seemed that there was an organization deliberately causing trouble. If it was just a small group, he and Chen Su

Just take action, but if he is someone with some tricks, he is afraid that he will have to think of another way. What's more, according to the news from the newspaper, the children there should be more than just Chen Su's children. There are children present who rely solely on force.

I'm just afraid it won't work.

Remembering that the Bamboo Forest in the Valley was not far from Yunmo City, he asked Nanke to pass the command and asked Bailimo to help.

"You said you saw several children being taken into the deep valley bamboo forest a few days ago?" Zong Yue and Chen Su first arrived at the teahouse in front of the bamboo forest. They heard from the teahouse boy that a few days ago there was a man and a woman with seven or eight ten-year-olds.

The children on the left and right went to the bamboo forest in the valley. He had reminded them that it was easy to get lost in the bamboo forest, but the children seemed very excited. The two adults also said it didn't matter. They were people nearby.

The journey was familiar, and I didn't drink tea in the teahouse afterwards. I just bought some snacks at the request of a few children and left.

Zong Yue saw that Chen Su was about to go into the forest, and hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Chen, wait a minute. According to what the waiter said, the two of them are not afraid of being seen. Combined with the performance of the children, they are afraid

Those people are not ordinary little ones. Besides, if there are seven or eight children together, we can't act rashly." Chen Su sat down again, anxious and felt that what Zong Yue said was somewhat true. The children are all together.

They must be rescued together. If they act rashly without knowing the details of the other party, the children will be the ones who suffer.

Zong Yue had asked Nan Ke to go to the deep valley bamboo forest to explore the bottom first. He thought it would be nothing to do when he returned to Beijing to visit his relatives, so he didn't bring any other ghost guards with him except Nan Ke. It was for this reason that he decided to let Baili Mo also

Come for a visit.

About half an hour later, Nanke returned to the tea house: "Second Master, there is a small courtyard deep in the bamboo forest. There is a jar for boiling medicine. It must be boiling something. It doesn't taste like our regular medicine. The door is

There are two people guarding the courtyard, and about four people take turns in the courtyard. The bamboos all around have been cut down, making it impossible to hide. The subordinates can only take a look from a distance."

Nan Ke explained the basic situation and then said: "The subordinates waited for a while and saw a woman, who must be the woman the clerk mentioned. The woman came out from the courtyard with two children and gave each person a bowl.

, let the child drink it.”

Nan Ke told what he saw. Chen Su became even more anxious after hearing this, while Zong Yue frowned and said nothing. In the evening, Baili Mo came, listened to the general situation, and said to Chen Su: "Chen Su

How old are the brothers' children?" "The daughter is eleven years old and the son is eight years old."

Although Chen Su didn't know Baili Mo's intention, he still told the truth. Baili Mo looked at Zong Yue and saw that he only had Nan Ke with him. If he had to take care of a group of children and get rid of these people, he

There are some difficulties for the three of them, not because of their martial arts skills, but because they cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof.

"How many people did you bring?" Zong Yue asked.

Baili Mo said: "With the four ghost guards Jia Xijue, you plus Nanke and Brother Chen, it should be no problem for them to successfully bring out the child."

"Well, that's good. I'll attract their attention. As long as Brother Chen and the others can bring out the children, you'll have no problem taking care of those people." Zong Yue said.

Baili Mo nodded. Seeing the sun setting, Zong Yue ducked and went into the bamboo forest, followed by several other people.

In the small house, several children drank the decoction in the afternoon, and now they are all drowsy after eating. Chen Su's daughter, whose nickname is Yiyi, is also leaning against a corner with her younger brother in her arms. The man and woman see the children

After everyone fell asleep, they left the hut and whispered: "If we can't find the person the master wants among these children, our lives will be in danger."

The woman said, with a hint of helplessness in her tone. The hall in their mouths asked them to find nine children who could carry the poisonous insects. They gave the children some soup as an antidote, and the poisonous insects were added to the dinner. If these children

If an abnormal reaction suddenly occurs during the process, the children will be given another decoction to expel the poisonous insects and then let the children go home. If there are no abnormalities after seven days, the children will be taken to a place and handed over to the hall leader.

This year, they only found five children. Seeing that the children around them basically didn't go near the bamboo forest, the two went out to find the children.

On that day, Yiyi and her younger brother went to the street to be separated from Chen Su for a while, so they were spotted by the two and brought back. While the two were talking, Zong Yue had already arrived at the open space pretending to be lost.

The two people guarding the door saw Zong Yue from a distance, but they didn't know what he was going to do, so they kept observing. Zong Yue, who was handsome and harmless, stepped forward and cupped his hands, pretending to be polite and asked: "How dare you ask me, brothers?"

, do you know the way down the mountain?"

The two guards looked at Zong Yue, pointed to a road, and said, "Just go that way."

Zong Yue looked in the direction of the man's finger while oohing and ahhing, "Huh? It seems that I went in that direction just now, but I still couldn't find the way. I wonder if my brother has a more detailed explanation."

As Zong Yue was talking, the man in the courtyard came out. He only looked at Zong Yue without saying anything. Zong Yue added: "Oh, I am a famous traveling doctor. I was passing by and heard that there is a herbal medicine in this forest that can cure falls.

, I thought about going up the mountain to have a look during the day, but I couldn’t find it after searching for most of the day. It’s already dark now, and I’m not familiar with the road down here. I saw a small house here, so I thought I’d come and ask about it.”

After hearing this, the man said: "I have lived here for several years and have never heard of such a thing. Since you haven't found it, sir, just follow this road and go down the mountain."

As he spoke, he took two steps forward, and when he approached Zong Yue, he suddenly took action. Zong Yue dodged for a while, but he stopped pretending. He started fighting with the three people at the door, and took advantage of the situation to lead the three people out of the open area. Baili

Mo took advantage of the situation and went straight to the hospital. There were four guards and a woman left in the hospital. Hearing the fighting outside, he wanted to leave the hospital, but was blocked by Baili Mo. The woman wanted to go back to the house and control the child, but Baili Mo couldn't.

After letting her go, they entangled and fought until they reached a certain place. There was no energy left to take care of the children. Chen Su, Nan Kexijue and others came from behind, picked up the sleeping children one by one and rushed into the bamboo forest.

Within three-quarters of an hour, the small courtyard returned to quiet. Zong Yue, Baili Mo and the others stood in front of the courtyard. Ignoring the people lying around, Zong Yue went into the house. They came suddenly. There were still a few medicines in the house.

Bao, Zong Yue took one, smelled it, and said: "I'm afraid these are some herbal remedies I prepared myself. I'll take them back and have a look." After saying that, the two of them didn't stay any longer and left the valley bamboo forest. (To be continued.
