Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

【Hongfu】

“The young master is back, and the Second Master and his wife have sent home the news.

He said if you come back early, you can wait a while, and if you are hungry, there will be warm food in the kitchen.

Madam specifically ordered this."

The steward of the Hong Mansion was happy to see Chu Ning, as he was the benefactor who saved the Hong Mansion.

Every time Chu Ning faced this enthusiasm, he would feel extremely nervous and would quickly bow to the old butler.

"Thank you. I'll go back to the yard and wait."

Chu Ning reached out and held the old butler's arm, walked him for a distance and then returned to his own residence.

Er Hong and the maid treated Chu Ning better and better. Not only was their residence only separated from their main courtyard by a corridor, but the number of servants also doubled.

When Chu Ning came back, he was shocked again by the scene, "You all should go back and rest first, I can handle these myself.

Really, brothers and sisters, I really can. "

The maids did not force it. After hearing Chu Ning's words, they smiled and left. Suddenly, Chu Ning was the only one left in the courtyard.

A sneer came from the wall.

Chu Ning raised his head and looked up at Mr. Chen Si, who never came in through the front door.

"You... never go through the front door?"

Chu Ning asked whatever he was thinking about.

Chen Pi leaped up and landed lightly, rolling his eyes as he walked towards Chu Ning.

"I go in through the main gate? If I enter today, Lu Jianxun and Huo Sanniang will come to my dock with guns tomorrow to kill me.

If you want me to die quickly, just say so!"

Chen Pi still spoke in the same unpleasant tone. Chu Ning shrugged. As long as he didn't sense any malice, he would be close to Chen Pi.

"Hmm~ So did you get any new information today?"

Chen Pi glanced at Chu Ning, then sat down at the table and poured himself a glass of water.

Chu Ning obediently came over, took the teacup and drank, and smiled at Chenpi after finishing it.

That smile fell into Chenpi's eyes, and it was as well-behaved as it could be, just like a younger brother who was acting coquettishly and naughty in front of his elder brother.

Chen Pi turned away his eyes in panic, saying viciously, "Is it poured for you and you drink it?

You're not afraid that I'll throw something dirty into the water and poison you."

Chu Ning tilted his head, looking unconvinced, "No, I'm watching you~

Aren’t we friends anymore?”

Chen Pi didn't know if he was irritated by Chu Ning's words. He stood up suddenly with a fierce look in his eyes.

"I don't have much time. I'll leave right after I finish. It's up to you to listen or not."

Chu Ning smacked his lips. Why did this guy get so anxious?

He immediately sat up straight, looking up and waiting for Chenpi as if he was going to school to learn knowledge.

"Lu Jianxun has asked me to find the entrance to the mine. In a few days, we will have cleaned up the hole you blew up."

Chenpi said this, and then his voice suddenly lowered, as if it had been chilled by ice.

"Lu Jianxun has already gone to find Zhang Qishan."

Chu Ning raised his hand and rubbed his arms, frowning, "You mean, if he can't find out anything from Master Buddha, he will attack the people around Master Buddha?

Jiu Ye is no longer in Changsha, and Adjutant Zhang is following Master Fo again.

Then the only people he can catch are Second Master and Eighth Master!"

After Chu Ning finished speaking, he shook his head. Why did he always feel like he had overlooked something?

Chen Pi looked at Chu Ning and sneered even more viciously, making people's scalps numb.

"No, you missed one."

Chu Ning thought hard, and finally looked at Chen Pi with his big eyes, "Is there another one?"

Chen Pi moved closer to Chu Ning and pinched Chu Ning's cheek with one hand. Seeing some red marks, he unconsciously eased up his strength.

"Are you a dummy?

The person Lu Jianxun is most likely to arrest is you."

Chu Ning opened his eyes wide, full of confusion, "Me? How could it be me?

I didn't bring myself to their attention or engage with them.

I……"

As Chu Ning spoke, his voice gradually weakened. Chen Pi let go of his hand, looked at the red mark on Chu Ning's cheek, and sat down again somewhat awkwardly.

What kind of little idiot did Zhang Qishan and his master raise?

"Have you figured it out? As long as you stay with Zhang Qishan, it's impossible not to attract attention.

Huo Sanniang has sent someone to ask me about you.

You can't hide the fact that you went to the mine with Zhang Qishan, so it's better to offend my master and Qi Tiezui.

Lu Jianxun still likes you the most because you don’t have any background.”

Seeing Chu Ning not saying anything, Chen Pi coughed lightly, "Are you scared?

They can't catch you while I'm here.

If it doesn't work, I'll ask them to catch that stinky fortune teller."

Chu Ning shook his head, pursed his lips lightly, and then blinked, "Don't worry, I won't say anything to him even if I'm caught."

Chenpi...Chenpi really wanted to pry open Chu Ning's head. Was he worried about what Chu Ning would say?

Chu Ning tugged at the corner of Chen Pi's clothes with his fingers a few times, "Um... Chen Pi~ Don't be angry, I know you are worried that I will be caught..."

Chen Pi gently slapped Chu Ning's claws away and clasped his arms, "Who's worried about you?

I get angry when I see you act so silly.

In short, you must stay close to my master and Zhang Qishan, and don't be left alone.

I am leaving. "

Chu Ning's smile widened, "I know! Chenpi, be careful!"

Chenpi didn't look back, but raised one corner of his lips.

Chu Ning sat for a long time after Chen Pi left. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and then he quickly walked out of the yard.

"Are you going out, young master?

The Second Master and his wife are going to take Miss Yin home."

The little maid who followed him reminded Chu Ning that it was almost time for dinner.

Chu Ning smiled and waved, "Sister, please tell the Second Master's wife that I'm going to go find the Eighth Master and stay at his place~"

Watching Chu Ning running away quickly, the old housekeeper reminded him worriedly, "Hey! Slow down, young master. You are in good health now. Don't overwork yourself!"

But Chu Ning had already run very far away...

When they arrived at the gate of the Hong Mansion, they stopped a rickshaw and the driver ran towards the place Chu Ning mentioned.

As the lights came on, Chu Ning passed by the bustling street again and saw the soldier who had gone down to the mine with them.

Is this how much the Buddha's personal soldiers get paid? This place looks very expensive...

Chu Ning was thinking about this question and unknowingly arrived at Qi Tiezui's hall.

Qi Tiezui was waiting at the door and gave the driver some silver as a reward.

"Eighth Master~

Why do you know every time I come here?"

Chu Ning skipped to Qi Tiezui and took his arm.

Qi Tiezui put his index finger mysteriously at Chu Ning's lips and said, "The secret cannot be revealed. Just think of it as if I installed a bell on you.

I could hear you jumping up and down from a distance."

Chu Ning curled his lips, "Liar!"

Qi Tiezui brought Chu Ning into the house, "Hey~ Master Ba, I love to lie to children~"

Qi Tiezui was busy decorating the bedroom for Chu Ning, and in the end he sat directly on the bed prepared for Chu Ning.

"Xiao Ning, tell me.

Why are you squeezing into my tiny place when you can't live in the spacious place that Master Buddha and Master Er have prepared for you? "

Chu Ning rubbed his hands together, with a mysterious look on his face, "Ahem, that... Master Ba.

You told me secretly that the head of the Huo family likes the Second Master, right? "
