caught the eye.This dilapidated scene stimulated Le Yanzhi fiercely, he rummaged through the yard without a clue, and kept shouting: "Mother, mother - where are you, mother, please answer me!"

After bumping into Tang Yiqiu's room, the inside was just as horrible, even his own room was the same.

The inexplicable fire destroyed the entire "Talk of Words", and even Tang Yiqiu disappeared.

Le Yan's six gods have no master, and all square inches are in chaos.

Nangong Yi seemed to be in a bad situation, so he hurried forward and held Le Yanzhi tightly in his arms, forcing him to calm down.

After a while, Le Yanzhi's body stopped shaking, but what he got in return was tears streaming down his face.

Nangong Yi reminded: "Which one of the pharmacy's clerks is more reliable, go and ask about the situation, maybe my aunt is at their house."

One sentence reminded Le Yanzhi, "Old Gu's house!" After finishing speaking, he kicked open the already mutilated back door and ran out.

After running for a few streets, he came to the place where he and Lao Gu met for the first time. After bypassing the alley, there was Lao Gu's house. can be heard.

Le Yanzhi clapped and yelled, and Lao Gu ran to open the door panting from inside.

As soon as the door opened, Le Yanzhi squeezed Gu's arms, "Brother Gu, what happened? Why did the pharmacy become like this during the month I was away? Where is my mother? Is my mother here with you? Le Yanzhi widened his eyes and was terrified.

Old Gu's first reaction was to kneel down, and then he cried out recklessly, "I'm sorry for your shopkeeper, I didn't guard the drug store, and even the people... shopkeeper, take my life, I'm so sorry How come he has nothing to do with a worthless life!"

Le Yanzhi also shook Gu Gu frantically, "What the hell happened? Hurry up and say don't cry! What's the matter with crying? Tell me what's wrong!"

Old Gu still couldn't say a word.

Nangong Yi directly put a dagger on Lao Gu's neck, and Lao Gu managed to calm down, and then brought Le Yanzhi and Nan Gong Yi into the room, and after arranging the two of them in the upper positions, he knelt down in front of the hall with a "plop".

Le Yanzhi had a bad feeling, but he didn't want to guess whether it was true or not.If Lao Gu didn't say it, he would definitely not believe the truth he guessed.

"Boss, General Nangong, take my life, it's my dereliction of duty that caused this result. It's all my fault!"

Le Yanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't talk about it, tell me what happened?"

"The shopkeeper..." Lao Gu cried, "I'm sorry for you, the pharmacy caught fire overnight for unknown reasons, and I couldn't control the fire when I arrived, so I went in to save my wife, but the result, the result..."

Le Yanzhi left the seat and knelt on the ground and asked Lao Gu uncontrollably, "What happened? What happened to my mother?"

"The result, the result is already too late..." After finishing speaking, Lao Gu burst into tears.

Le Yanzhi was dumbfounded, he couldn't believe his ears, and he didn't want to believe the facts he saw, but if he didn't believe it, he couldn't think of other possibilities, "Come, it's too late? Then... where is my mother now? ? You can see people when you live, and you can see corpses when you die!" The voice was already sobbing, the face was distorted, and Le Yan couldn't feel it at all.

"The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, hold on." Now Gu Gu was scared, and he felt extremely worried when he saw Le Yanzhi's reaction, "Calm down, the shopkeeper, I will tell you the details slowly..."

Nangong Yi can't do anything at the moment, he can only stay by Le Yanzhi's side so that he can rely on him and not fall down, "Old Gu, go ahead and explain bit by bit what's going on?"

Lao Gu wiped his face, "After the fire, I reported to the authorities, and the officer came to do an autopsy, but there was no result. The yamen's investigation into the cause of the fire was also inconclusive. The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the place where the fire broke out was in the pharmacy. , the dried medicinal materials there are so easy to catch fire, but Madam was found in her house, and she was still in a state of deep sleep when she was found, but the person has...already..." Old Gu couldn't continue.

"What happened later?" Nangong Yi only controlled the trembling body in his arms, and asked for Le Yanzhi, "What did the government say later?"

"Later," Old Gu wiped his nose, took a few breaths and said, "Later, I went to the government to press for the results, but the government suppressed this matter for some reason, and even said that the impact was not good, so the wife was buried early , When I went to ask again in the future, I was kicked out, and I couldn't even get close to the gate of the yamen, and I was beaten severely when I went a few times." Lao Gu lifted his clothes, and Nangong Yi saw the whip marks on Lao Gu's body.

Le Yanzhi couldn't change his breath, and passed out directly in Nangong Yi's arms.

Nangong Yi settled Le Yanzhi in Lao Gu's house for the time being, and Lao Gu invited other doctors to have a look. He concluded that he was in a hurry, so he prescribed a few medicines to let Le Yanzhi rest, took the consultation fee and left.

Nangong Yi entrusted Le Yanzhi to Lao Gu, and ran to the Yamen by himself when he was not awake.

Nangong Yi dared to go directly to the sixth grade of the county magistrate's official position. The yamen in the capital is not at that level.

However, something unexpected happened to Nangong Yi.

After he handed over the name tag, the prefect immediately invited him to the back hall as a guest.

The magistrate also has his considerations. It is said that the news between the officials is well-informed. After the magistrate learned of Nangong Yi's record in the battlefield, he knew that taking the opportunity to win over this young man would definitely be beneficial to his future official career. If his estimation was correct, this young man would definitely be favored by the emperor, because in a very disparate battle, he not only turned defeat into victory, but also brought envoys from the Kingdom of Jin to seek peace.

This young man has a bright future and extraordinary abilities!

When the magistrate saw Nangong Yi, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "I don't know if General Nangong's visit will be greeted at a distance, or at a distance."

Nangong Yi cupped his hands, without turning corners or beating around the bush, "The magistrate is very polite, the students are here to ask questions."

A trace of displeasure flashed across the prefect's face, but he still reluctantly invited Nangong Yi to sit down, "I don't know what General Nangong wants to ask?"

Nangong Yi was not polite, "I only heard about the fire in the commercial street 'Yanzhitang', and I want to ask how it turned out?"

The prefect showed a look of embarrassment, walked around the hall twice with his hands behind his back, hesitated and said: "Since General Nangong asks this question, I will not go around in circles. The general is a smart person, so I can't handle this matter too much. I can't say anything more. I can only say that there are people on top who are suppressing me, and I really have no choice but to hope that the general will not embarrass me."

Nangong Yi frowned, tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, and asked after a while: "Then what news do you know now?"

"This..." the magistrate stammered, covered his mouth with his hands and coughed twice, "There's something wrong with this fire, General Nangong, everyone is from the court, I hope you don't make things difficult for me! I've said everything I can say, This can’t be said, I’m afraid of losing my head if I say too much!”

Nangong Yi sighed, got up and said, "Thank you, the magistrate, for telling me, the students will leave first, and I will come to the door next time to thank you."

"No delivery!"

Nangong Yi left the government office and hurried back to Lao Gu's house, but Le Yanzhi disappeared, and Lao Gu also disappeared.

75. The Calamity of Le Yanzhi ([-])

When Le Yanzhi woke up, there was only Lao Gu beside him.

"My mother...where is she buried?" Although she no longer cried uncontrollably, it was obvious that she hadn't slowed down yet.

"It's just outside the city in a cemetery. I borrowed some money to buy a cemetery there. Otherwise, I would be thrown into a mass grave. You are kind to me. Madam passed away miserably. I can't make her miserable after she leaves. .” Lao Gu said as he raised his hand to wipe away his tears.

Le Yanzhi's face was expressionless and his eyes were dull, "Thank you, Brother Gu, I'll return your money to you later, and now you take me to my mother's grave."

"Hey." Old Gu quickly supported Le Yanxia, ​​and then went to the back to get some burnt paper and food.When Tang Yiqiu was buried, Lao Gu bought a lot of burnt paper, and he used the rest when Le Yanzhi came back.

Lao Gu supported Le Yanzhi and walked out of the city step by step.

Le Yanzhi was sluggish along the way as if he had lost his soul, and he kept muttering, "She is not just my mother to me..."

Lao Gu hurriedly agreed, "Yes yes yes..."

"Without her, I would probably die directly when I came to this world."

"Yes, yes, every mother is the greatest!"

"When I was helpless, she was the only one who accompanied me and supported me..."

"Yes……"

"Let me come to this strange environment without fear or hesitation..."

"The shopkeeper's..."

"Without her, I would experience such incredible things, my heart would be dark, I might be rebellious, I might grow crooked..."

"The shopkeeper?"

"But I grew up normally, and in my heart she is my own mother..."

"The shopkeeper's? The shopkeeper's!"

"My only support and concern in this world..."

"The shopkeeper's shopkeeper!" Lao Gu shook his head frantically, "Wake up, shopkeeper, we've arrived at Madam's tomb, wake up, shopkeeper!"

Le Yanzhi turned her head and looked at Lao Gu, "But she's gone, what should I do? Who should I rely on?"

"With me, shopkeeper, you can rely on me, isn't there the third son of the Nangong family?"

Le Yanzhi withdrew his gaze, pressed his forehead against the mound of dirt, "Hey..." he let out a long sigh, and didn't speak again.

This cemetery is in a forest outside the city. The forest is only surrounded by a circle without any trees in the middle. There are piles of soil piled up here in an orderly manner. The board in front is marked with
