surrogate wife

Ren Mengshan's home is not far from them, the second rank official, naturally lives in Danyangfang.

It was the first time for Xue Yi to experience the thrill of a night walker flying over eaves and walls. On weekdays, he had to move carefully to the top of the roof, and Wen Yumu had always accompanied him on the climb.

Today, his family Mu Mu casually hugged his waist, and she was able to lead him into the wall, her movements were as light as a veil.

After landing, he found that they were in the back garden of Ren Mansion, and there was no one around.

"Mu Mu, let's look for the study first. Since Mr. Ren and his wife seem to be in a relationship, it is unlikely that the secret will be hidden in the bedroom."

Wen Yumu nodded, "Okay, follow me."

They held hands and walked together in Ren's mansion. Wen Yumu's five senses are sensitive, and he can always detect whether there is someone in front of him in advance. The way they came all the way was unimpeded, as if they were walking in their own yard.

The location of the study is not difficult to find. In fact, no matter whether it is a big house or a small house, the shapes and specifications are not bad. There are only a few places for the study.

Xue Yi was also the one who drew the design drawings for his own house, and he had a lot of experience in the structure of the house, so he quickly found the yard where the study was located.

The study room has been sealed up, people in Ren's mansion are in panic recently, there is no one to look after it, and a thin layer of dust has fallen on it.

The good thing is that this means that the yard will not be visited at this point.

They simply lit a small lamp.

Holding a small lamp in his palm, Xue Yi searched carefully in the study.

Wen Yumu saw that he didn't look through the books and letters in the study, but seemed to be looking for something, so he couldn't help asking, "Ah Yi, what are you looking for?"

Xue Yidao: "After the accident, the people of Dali Temple searched through this study several times, and found nothing. I don't want to waste my efforts."

"I read the file of Mr. Ren. He is a person who is good at strange and obscene skills. He once designed several tools and handed them over to the court."

"So I think he should also be good at tricks. If he wants to hide something, it may be in a secret room or a secret compartment."

"This speculation makes sense." Wen Yumu also stopped flipping through the book, "Let me help you find it together."

"No need for now, Mu Mu, you should look through the things in the study, if the people in Dali Temple miss something, wouldn't we be misled too." Xue Yi said.

"Alright, let's do both."

They searched separately, and Wen Yumu found a stack of letters, all of which had been torn apart and roughly stacked together, obviously the people from Dali Temple were too lazy to put them back in the envelope after reading it, so they simply threw them together.

He read the letters by the moonlight, divided them according to time, and focused on the last six months.

Mostly it was a letter from his friend who was an official in other places, but unfortunately he couldn't read the reply letter. I don't know if Mr. Ren has revealed anything to the other party.

From these letters, I can't see any problems.

I don't know if Mr. Ren was extra cautious and hid all the problematic letters, or someone took these letters after Mr. Ren died.

"Found it!" Xue Yi whispered excitedly, "Mu Mu, come quickly."

He held up the lamp and shone it on an inconspicuous corner of the wall behind the Bogu rack. There was a small dot the size of a fingernail. The texture seemed to be white marble, which almost blended with the color of the wall. If it wasn't for the light Under the light, it reflected a faint fluorescent light, and it was completely indistinguishable from the surroundings.

Wen Yumu leaned over to have a look, and sighed: "Sure enough, it's hidden. Do these grown-ups have their own unique skills?"

Xue Yi smiled and said: "I don't know, but those who can achieve this level must have their own advantages."

After the button was pressed, one wall slowly moved away, revealing a secret room.

The secret room is not big, with a table and a bookshelf inside.

It can be said to be unobstructed.

"It seems that there is nothing here." Xue Yi was a little disappointed.

Wen Yumu pointed to the bottom shelf of the bookshelf, "Look here, it seems that something has been let go before."

Xue Yi looked over carefully holding the lamp, and said in admiration: "There is a circle of traces here. It should have been a small box or something."

"Mu Mu, you are so powerful, you can spot abnormalities at a glance in such a dark place."

Wen Yumu also walked over, and looked at the traces in all directions with him, "Unfortunately, someone got there first. It is not written in the file of Dali Temple that they found the secret room, and someone else wanted to take this box. "

Xue Yi looked at it carefully, and suddenly said: "Mumu, see if it's a little higher here."

Wen Yumu also looked at it, and said, "Yes, this board is a bit inclined, and this side is higher."

Xue Yi knocked back and forth on the bottom board, finally settled on a place, and lifted it lightly, revealing a small interlayer.

He laughed and said, "Your Excellency is worthy of the name of being cautious. When most people see the box on top, they will naturally think that the mystery is in the box. How could they think that the wooden board below has another mystery?"

Wen Yumu was also surprised, "Ah Yi, when did you learn mechanism skills?"

Xue Yi said reservedly: "It's just a little understanding. Earlier, I wanted to build a secret room in our house, but after thinking about it, it was a bit boring, so I gave up."

He reached out and took out a flat box from the dark compartment, which was locked with an exquisite lock.

Wen Yumu looked at it, and said speechlessly: "This is a Qiqiao Linglong lock, Lord Ren has hidden it too deeply. This kind of lock can only be opened with a special key, otherwise it will be useless even if it is smashed."

Xue Yidao: "Let's look for the key again."

It's a pity that they searched the secret room inch by inch, but found no other secret compartments.

Instead, another mezzanine was found on the table, and there were some correspondence in it.

"It is mentioned in the letter that Mr. Ren seems to have discovered a very secret matter, a major event that may lose his head. He is afraid and hesitates because of this, and his friends are trying to persuade him."

"Unfortunately, Master Ren is still too cautious. He didn't say what happened in the letter."

They had no choice but to take the box away for the time being.

After restoring the secret room, they left Ren Mengshan's study.

In the middle of the night, there was a deep black silence outside, Wen Yumu and Xue Yi sat on the bed with only their coats on, studying a small box.

Wen Yumu said: "The box that Yu'an gave me also has a Qiqiao Linglong lock, why don't I go to him and ask which craftsman made it? Maybe that person has a way to open the lock."

Xue Yidao: "After the Qiqiao Linglong lock is made, one lock and one key, even the craftsman himself can't open it without the key. Assuming this lock was made by Mr. Ren himself, how can other craftsmen be able to open it?"

"Furthermore, with Master Ren's temper, there must be a mechanism in his box. If the lock is destroyed, the contents inside will probably be destroyed as well."

Wen Yumu sighed: "Hey, this lord hides things so carefully, why doesn't he know how to be careful about his own life?"

"People have misfortunes and blessings, no matter how cautious they are, it is useless."

Xue Yi held the box in distress, "If you can't open it, what difference does it make if there is one or not?"

"If we let the news out, say that we have found this box, let's see who comes here to find it, and then we will arrest and torture them." Wen Yumu came up with an idea from the side.

Xue Yi frowned and said: "This is a bad strategy, not only Xiao Xiami, but also a dead soldier. If you don't get any clues, it will expose your martial arts skills and make the enemy take precautions. "

Wen Yumu bent his eyes and smiled, "When a dead man comes to my place, it is difficult to ask for death. As long as someone comes, I will be able to find out."

Xue Yi was startled, "Mumu, don't you know the art of torture?"

What kind of cool official is this?

Wen Yumu imitated his appearance, nodded reservedly, "I understand."

Xue Yi: "..."

He said with sympathy: "I have to take good care of you, otherwise, wouldn't it be a disaster for the world if you let it out."

"Yo." Wen Yumu smiled, hooked his shoulders, and snuggled up like a water snake, winking like silk, exhaling like blue, and said: "This is like a monk who saves all living beings."

"Little master, how do you plan to take care of me, the devil?" He teased, and lifted his chin with his index finger.

Xue Yi looked serious, put his hands together and said: "Amitabha, the donor is fierce, and the little monk has no choice but to feed the demon with his body."

"Hahaha..." Wen Yumu couldn't hold back, and laughed on him.

Xue Yi grabbed his white wrist, leaned forward and kissed his lips, and said with a smile in his eyes: "The night is still long, why don't we abandon the secular world for a while and delve into Buddhism."

"Benefactor, are you satisfied with the little monk?"

Wen Yumu blushed slightly, and reprimanded: "He pretended to be a monk with no desires, but he was actually a little lewd monk."

Xue Yi has already hugged him up, tightly wrapped around his waist, and whispered in his ear: "If the benefactor has any dissatisfaction, you can mention it, and the monk will definitely work hard to improve."

……

After a hearty ups and downs, Xue Yi woke up the next morning, feeling refreshed.

I don't know if it was because of this reason that he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Mu Mu, Mu Mu." He shook Wen Yu Mu, "I suddenly remembered something."

"What's the matter?" Wen Yumu also woke up, lazily leaning on the big pillow to wake up, his body was shaken by him.

He said a little excitedly: "Among the evidence we got from Dali Temple, there is a large bank note, which is the relic of Lord Ren!"

"Yeah, what's wrong with the bank notes?" Wen Yumu asked in a daze while his mind was still a little dull.

"A bank note! Since Mr. Ren didn't commit a crime himself, but discovered something, then he didn't want to bribe his brother, so why is he carrying a large bank note with him?!"

"If it's a bribe, the money is too little, if it's an ordinary trip, the money is too much, so there must be something wrong!"

He was very excited and grasped the mystery for himself, "I know that big banks will provide trusteeship services for customers. Maybe Mr. Ren's bank note shows that he has things entrusted to that bank!"

He jumped out of bed, put on his coat, ran to the study to search, and found the bank note after a few times.

This is a silver ticket of 5000 taels.

Indeed, as Xue Yi said, it is not enough to use it for bribes, and it is almost the same if it is exchanged for gold.It costs too much to go out and buy things, and ordinary stores don't charge it.

Master Ren is a cautious person, such a person would not bring so much money with him when he goes out on weekdays.

He couldn't help admiring: "Ah Yi is really careful, he can notice such clues."

Xue Yi held him around in high spirits, his happiness was beyond words.

After they packed up and had breakfast, they took the bank notes and went to Bahui Bank, where they exchanged a key.
