Rong Tan didn't sleep all night, he squinted for a while at dawn, and had a vague nightmare, woke up frightened, opened his eyes and saw Li Mu sitting next to him with his head down.

He quickly grabbed Li Mu's arm, and was relieved when Li Mu looked up at him.

"I feel better." Li Mu said.

Li Mu's body was still hot, but after taking the medicine, his body temperature dropped slowly.

This is really incredible.

"Could it be that those half corpses are not walking corpses?"

Fan Xingzhi asked.

Rong Tan then asked the beggar: "Have you ever seen these half corpses eating people?"

The beggar shook his head: "When we saw the half corpses, we all ran away in fright. Who dares to see if they can eat people or not. But they look no different from those walking corpses. They should be more powerful walking corpses, just smarter." .”

This is telling the truth. They have seen those half corpses with their own eyes. They are indeed very similar to walking corpses. Their eyes are gray and their faces don't look like living people. Could it be that they are really mutated walking corpses?

Walking corpses are all unconscious, but these half corpses can be used by people, and Rong Tan really can't figure out the reason.

They followed the beggar to the gate of the city, and they saw that the gate was heavily guarded, and everyone who passed by was checked carefully.Rong Tan originally wanted to sneak in with the beggar, but seeing the situation, he had no choice but to give up.

After the beggar went in, he came out at noon: "I gave Mr. Fan's jade pendant to their supervisor, and their staff said that they will come out to pick you up in the evening."

They waited until evening, and sure enough, they saw Fan's retainers come out.The man's name was Liu Feng, and he seemed to be quite powerful in Donghe. They hid in Liu Feng's carriage and passed the city gate smoothly. Those who guarded the city gate saw that it was Liu Feng's carriage, so they didn't dare to come in to check.

It was already dark, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they successfully entered Fan's private house.Liu Feng immediately found a doctor to treat Li Mu's neck injury.Fan Xingzhi asked: "My brother was bitten by a half-corpse, but it seems that there is no serious problem. Is the so-called half-corpse in Donghe City not a walking corpse?"

Liu Fengdao: "We are also investigating secretly. These half corpses only appeared in the last few days. They killed many nobles and dignitaries as soon as they appeared. They are well-trained. They are not like walking corpses, but killers. We also suspect that they are not Walking corpses, but someone using the name of walking corpses to kill people."

"Who do you think is most likely in Donghe City?"

Liu Feng said: "Master Rong."

"Master Rong, isn't he the one serving porridge at Caishikou?!" Rong Tan asked.

Liu Feng said: "Second Master Rong is right, it is him."

"I only know that my father has many uncles and brothers, but I have never met them. I know very little. I don't know what kind of person my third uncle is?"

"Among the Rong family, Third Master Rong is the first one to say that he is unrestrained. In the past few years, he did spend his days drinking and drinking, and never asked about political affairs. But as far as I can see, this man is thoughtful and has been cared for for many years. Hidden, it is not a thing in the pool. After Master Rong passed away, he took over the position of Patriarch of the Rong family temporarily. Think about it, everyone in the Rong family is a pillar of talent. Standing out shows his means. Moreover, most of the people killed by the half-corpse in the past few days were dissatisfied with his temporary position as the head of the Rong family, so I feel that he is the most suspicious."

After Liu Feng withdrew, Rong Tan and Fan Xingzhi went into the house to see Li Mu.Li Mu stood by the bed, saw the two of them coming in, and said, "The doctor said, brother's injury is not serious, just take care of it."

Rong Tan then told Li Mu what Liu Feng had said.Li Mu said: "According to this, my father and the others are likely to be in the hands of Third Master Rong."

"If he is really for power, then he is here for Rong Er, besides, Rong Er is the serious successor of the Rong family. Even if this third master Rong wants to make a move, he doesn't dare to make it clear, so he is in a hurry to be with us. Do it before entering the city. Tomorrow, I will invite all the prominent people in Donghe City over, and when everyone knows Rong Er's identity, that Third Master Rong will not dare to act rashly."

Although it is in troubled times, Fan's words are still useful. Donghe City heard that the son of the Fan family is coming, and all the dignitaries and dignitaries have come to Fan's private residence.Rong Tan was accompanying Li Mu in the backyard, when he heard the constant traffic and horses outside, he said, "The Fan family is really imposing, hearing the congratulations, I thought it was in the capital."

"There are almost no walking corpses in Donghe City," Li Wei said, "That's why these people dare to go out, but I just heard earlier that an official was killed by a half-corpse on the way."

"If what Liu Feng said is true, the mastermind behind all this is my third uncle. If I want to secure my position as a family member, I really have to show up before he kills all those who disobey him. OK."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Fan Xingzhi approaching, beckoning, "Rong Er, come here."

"I'll come as soon as I go." He said to Li Mu.

Li Mu nodded: "I'll go with you."

"Is your injury serious?"

Li Mu shook his head: "I don't worry if you go alone."

Rong Tan smiled and said: "Although I have always been a dude, I have been in the officialdom since I was a child. Even if I don't know the art of domination, I still have the style of Second Young Master Rong, and I won't embarrass the Rong family."

Fan Xingzhi said: "It's good for the minister to follow, sooner or later he will assist you, besides, the dignified second son of the Rong family, it doesn't look good without a retainer around him. Li Wei also follows, and I have the right to be your little attendant."

Fan Xingzhi was very well prepared. They all put on robes embroidered with peony flowers. The three of them were all handsome, and they looked more elegant in fresh clothes, especially Li Mu. The peony looks beautiful.Now that I see it again, I feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

"Are you ready?" Fan Xingzhi asked.

Rong Tan looked at the crape myrtle pattern on Fan Xingzhi's skirt and nodded.

"They are all your servants of the Rong family," Fan Xingzhi said, "don't be nervous, no matter who their heart is for, they will respect you on the surface."

"Let's go." Rong Tan said.

Fan Xingzhi nodded to the person at the entrance, and the person bowed and shouted, "Second Young Master Rong has arrived."

Fan's style was very impressive, starting from the people at the entrance to the hall in the front yard, four people yelled four times in succession.

"Second Master Rong is here!"

"Second Master Rong is here!"

"Second Master Rong is here!"

As Fan Xingzhi said, all the officials in that hall bowed to him when they saw him.Rong Tan walked among them and saw that everyone was secretly looking at him.

This is the first time he, Young Master Rong, who only heard his name but never seen him, appeared in Donghe City.

Who knew that as soon as he walked into the hall, he heard someone preaching outside: "Mr. Rong is here!"

Rong Tan immediately looked back, he wanted to take a good look at this Third Master Rong, who is so sacred.
