Chapter 193 (1/2)

The old man made up his mind and led other farmers to escort Hao Dong to the ancestral hall. Chang San and Duan Tingxuan were relieved. Chang San told the others: ”if something like this happens, someone must go back and report it to the master. I think Liang Shou should go back. This boy is smart and young. It's also right to run errands.”

The others laughed and it was almost noon. Who loved running errands in the sun? Since the steward's ”righteousness kills relatives”, what else to say? So one after another agreed. Chang San took out the oil cake in his package and handed it to Duan Tingxuan. He told him, ”go back quickly and don't eat on the road. This oil cake was baked by your daughter-in-law in the morning, and I'll give it to you. If you're hungry on the road, you'll have a few bites.”

Duan Tingxuan seemed a little reluctant, but he didn't dare to object. He had to take the oil cake with a depressed face, and then went to the ancestral hall of Xiaowangzhuang. When they came, the horses they rode were there and entrusted two villagers to take care of them.

The others laughed and continued to go to Dongning village. After a while, they disappeared.

Let's say Duan Tingxuan ran along the official road to Suzhou after riding. However, when he passed a cliff, the horse suddenly fell down. Fortunately, he saw the opportunity early and turned over at the moment when the horse fell to the ground. Otherwise, he didn't know what to do. Rao was so. He also fell over and got disheartened.

The horse fell to the ground and gasped. Duan Tingxuan came forward and pretended to check it. He murmured and cursed a few words, so he no longer took care of the horse. He sat on a big stone and chewed a few oil cakes. His eyes wandered around and looked at the environment. This is the place where long Pingzhang was killed.

A few days later, he locked Hao Dong's eyes, which had been staring at him secretly, and checked secretly. Sure enough, the man's origin was not very clear. Anyway, he was a servant. Su Donglou didn't care much that day. Even he knew that there must be spies arranged by Lu Fengyu in the house, but he only pretended not to know. After all, spies are such things. Sometimes it's also a good communication tool. But unexpectedly, it was the negligence at that time that almost caused great trouble to Duan Tingxuan.

Fortunately, Hao Dong was extremely greedy for money, so Duan Tingxuan immediately had an idea when Chang San mentioned that there was a valuable ebony box in the ancestral hall of Xiaowangzhuang. Quietly, he dug a pit for the other party. Sure enough, there was an ebony box as bait. Hao Dong almost couldn't wait to jump into the pit, and then he was buried.

Duan Tingxuan finally got a chance to come here alone. He has strong ears and a keen sense. If someone is following him secretly, he will not be able to hide it from him. The reason why he still behaves like this is to be careful. If someone looks this way on the opposite mountain, they have to act so that even if they doubt, they can't be sure that they came to investigate long Pingzhang's death, right?

So after eating the oil cake, Duan Tingxuan went to check the situation of getting off the horse again. The big dark horse made him twitch secretly with heavy techniques. How can he recover for a while? Naturally, hem and haw said he would have to rest for a while. So Duan Tingxuan pretended to be bored and walked around the mountain. Suddenly he felt his back waist, and the whole person was stunned. Then he looked around in a hurry, as if something had fallen.

After this gesture, we are really looking for it. Just as Su Donglou said, things have changed. Where are there any clues left for him to find?

For a long time. After all, he still didn't find anything. Duan Tingxuan sighed in his heart and said to Pingzhang ah Pingzhang secretly, if you have a spirit in heaven. Just give me some guidance. What did you find out before you were killed? I know you must have found something, but what is it?
