A group of people carried Lu Sheng to the bedroom and invited a special doctor from the Lu family to come and check.

The doctor entered the room and came out soon after.

"It's nothing serious. It's just that he was exhausted, and he was hit hard on his lower abdomen. The eldest son has a strong body, so it's nothing if he didn't hurt his internal organs."

Lu Quan'an breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Sheng took matters into his own hands this time, which was a bit reckless.

As the eldest son of the Lu family, if something happens to him, what should he do in the future?

"Quan An, this is also a helpless time."

The uncle sighed.

"I plan to report the matter here to the imperial court in person, bypassing the prefect. Song Duanchi, as a city official, had previously said that he would report to the imperial court, but until now... As the deputy commander, I have asked for command several times.

I sent Yang Duanrui to write a letter, but he refused."

"Is there any inside story?" Lu Quan'an asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know...there's also that girl Qing Qing, and there's still no news about the missing people." The uncle shook his head.

The two of them stood outside the door, feeling that they had to do something, but they didn't know what they could do.

This kind of thing has exceeded their imagination.

Although I had heard of this kind of thing from other places before, when it happened to me at home, I didn’t know what to do.

"How about..." Lu Quan'an pondered, "Let's put up a list and offer rewards to recruit people who can solve such supernatural things."

"With a lot of money, there must be a brave man, maybe it can be done. Anyway, these things are making a fuss now, and there is no way to cover it up."

The uncle nodded.

The two discussed it carefully and settled on the matter.

Not long after, someone from Lu's house took stacks of red paper and posted them outside the gate of Lu's house and on the nearby public notice wall.

Red paper was quickly posted at several important places with high traffic.

It attracted many passers-by to watch.

........

A few days later.

At the city gate.

On the main road with people coming and going and fast traffic.

A caravan dragging gray cargo slowly stopped at the city gate. The leader of the caravan began to call for unloading and waited for someone to move it.

This caravan was just passing through Jiulian City, and only part of the cargo was unloaded.

While the leader was saying hello, two people, one tall and one short, jumped out of a carriage of the caravan.

The two of them were wearing Taoist robes. The taller one was a middle-aged man with a Chinese character and a rosy complexion. He carried a sword on his back and wore white cloth shoes with black soles.

The woman is also dressed in Taoist robes, but her appearance is pretty. Although she is faintly tired, she can still be seen as well-educated. In this era, this situation is only possible if she comes from a wealthy family.

"Brother Yan, this is Jiulian City."

The woman's voice was very clear, like an eleven or twelve-year-old girl who had just started speaking.

"Well, it should be the Jiuliancheng that person mentioned. Rongrong, you have worked hard all the way."

The man nodded and looked around.

Soon he noticed a red notice paper posted at the city gate.

The announcement attracted a crowd of people to watch, and even two soldiers guarding the city came over to chat with others.

Everyone had expressions of surprise and envy on their faces.

"I didn't feel too miserable along the way with Brother Yan Kai. The notice over there looks like a reward notice. Let's go take a look first. Maybe someone has already posted a message asking for help if they are in trouble."

Rongrong followed Yan Kai all over the country and gained a lot of experience in this kind of thing.

In the several incidents they encountered before, they found the person who had the accident as soon as possible through notices.

Yan Kai nodded.

"Let's go and have a look."

The two walked into the city gate and quickly squeezed towards the notice posting area.

"...It's the Lu Mansion... The city has been really uneasy recently. Even the Lu family has had trouble."

"There was someone from the Lu family who escaped before. I took a look and it seemed to be the former captain of the Lu family's guard. The whole house was in panic."

"I haven't seen Sister Yu out shopping for several days. Could something really have happened?"

The people around me were talking to each other, chatting intermittently.

Yan Kai listened carefully and looked up at the posted notice.

‘A reward of five hundred gold is offered to recruit strange people.

There have been a lot of strange things happening in the city recently, and people have gone missing from time to time.

Previously, there were the Xu family tragedy and the Wangjiazhuang man-hole case. Now there is the cry of a woman in our Lu Mansion in the middle of the night.

In order to seek peace at home, I am offering a reward of 500 taels of gold and about 5,000 taels of silver to investigate the matter thoroughly and find the missing person.’

The notice was written simply and its meaning concise and clear.

There is also a supplementary notice posted below, which tells the whole story of the incident in which Lu Mansion encountered crying sounds in the middle of the night.

The missing persons case that occurred in Lu Mansion was completely written out.

Yan Kai looked at it carefully and frowned slightly.

"That's it. Let's go to Lu's house."

Rongrong also read the announcement.

"It just so happens that we are also looking for this ghost, and we can also make some money along the way."

"We practice Taoism not for money." Yan Kai said solemnly.

"Yes, yes, yes." Rongrong stuck out her tongue and quickly shut up. She knew that Brother Yan Kai couldn't bear the idea of ​​repaying a favor.

Without saying a word, Yan Kai stepped forward and tore down the notice.

The servant guarding the road at the side lit up, and he suddenly became energetic.

"You two, please come this way!"

Yan Kai nodded.

He took Rongrong with him and went to the Ding Chaolu Mansion.

The crowd who had been watching the excitement suddenly became a little uproar, and many good people followed along.

I want to see if they really went to Lu's house.

The two men and women dressed in Taoist robes seemed to have two brushes.

Yan Kai didn't care whether there was anyone following him or not. His color did not change as he walked and he turned a blind eye. He was obviously used to being watched by people.

Rongrong took the initiative to chat with the servant and asked about the situation of Lu Mansion.

Not long after, the two got into a carriage, which turned left and right. After walking for a while, it stopped.

As soon as the two got off the car, someone led them into a large house with rockeries, flowing water, small bridges and gardens, birds singing and flowers fragrant, and the decoration was extremely exquisite and luxurious.

Yan Kai kept his eyes open and led Rongrong forward, and soon they arrived at a living room.

"Welcome welcome."

A middle-aged man with a sad face and pale face was sitting in the living room.

The man has a well-built figure, wears a moon-white robe with silver-edged copper coin patterns, and has a long beard neatly combed on his chin.

It was just the way from Lu Sheng's place to An'an.

"But the two torn-off city gate notices?" Lu Quan'an carefully looked at the two people in front of him.

Both of them are Taoists. The man has a rosy and shiny complexion, a full forehead, solemn eyes, and a straight back. If he were to wear a Confucian robe, he would look like a celebrity.

The woman's face was pretty, with a hint of innocence, and her eyes were quick to peek around. It looked like a young lady from some family had sneaked out to dress up.

"Exactly. Pindao Yankai. The color of the Yan, the beginning of the Taoist name is still Yangzi."

Yan Kai introduced himself.

"This is the poor Taoist junior sister Duan Rong. I waited for the two of them to come here because of the missing persons issue posted by the Lu Mansion."

"Please sit down, both of you. Please sit down."

Lu Quan'an stretched out his hand to signal.

Yan Kai and the two sat down, and a maid quickly served tea and refreshments.
