  Chapter 31
  The moment he settled down, Jiang Ran couldn't help but take a breath of air.

  I couldn't help but say:
  "This is impossible!!"

  How is this possible?

  A group of people emerged out of thin air and occupied such a large foundation in Cangzhou Mansion.

  But there is no place to come from?

  So how did they live here so peacefully?

  No matter what, there must be a process of integration.

  But... according to what Master Liu said now, these people just appeared out of thin air, and everyone took them for granted.

  This... isn't this a ghost? Could it be that this family is some kind of monster?
  Master Liu's face was also full of disbelief.

  But when faced with Jiang Ran's words, he could only smile bitterly:
  "This... this... Hey, Young Master Jiang, to be honest, I'm very confused right now...

  "What on earth is going on? "

  Jiang Ran originally planned to come over and find someone who understands to ask.

  But now, he can't ask someone who understands.

  The two of them stared at each other. You looked at me and I looked at you, each of them was confused.

  In the end, it was Jiang Ran He was the first to break the silence.

  "Master Liu, I have an unkind invitation.

  "Young Master Jiang, it's okay to say so. " "

  Master Liu spoke quickly.

  Jiang Ran described the old drunkard's voice and appearance, and did not say that he was his master. He just said:

  "I came to Cangzhou Mansion firstly because of the matter between Daozhen and Zhang Dongxuan. Secondly, I came to Cangzhou Mansion. I came here to find this person.

  "It's just that I'm short on my own, and I'm new here. There's really nowhere to start in the vast sea of ​​people.

  " Only then did I shamelessly ask for Master Liu's help. "

  "This matter is easy to talk about. Master Liu

  nodded: "I'll ask the police to inquire about it soon. I think there will be news soon."

  "Then thank you Master Liu. Jiang Ran will never forget this kindness. " "

  Jiang Ran cupped his fists and handed over

  his hands. In fact, he originally didn't intend to take advantage of this matter.

  But now that the Tang family's origins are unpredictable and their purpose is unknown, Jiang Ran is really starting to worry about the life and death of the old drunkard.

  "Don't dare. Master Liu

  shook his head, and then asked,

  "Does Young Master Jiang know anything else about the Tang family?" "

  No more..."

  Jiang Ran scratched his head:

  "I only met them once yesterday, so what do I know..."

  "That's true." "

  Master Liu nodded.

  After that, the two of them chatted casually.

  Jiang Ran never mentioned anything about the Tang family. It seemed that he just visited by chance and discovered something weird about the Tang family, so he came to the government office to inform him. Just a word.

  The old drunkard lives his whole life with the words "eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, cheating and kidnapping". He

  also told Jiang Ran about it. Although Jiang Ran was unwilling to learn this thing, after all, he was influenced by it. At this time, he was pretending to be pretentious and no one could see it. There was no trace of any flaws.

  After talking about it, Jiang Ran proposed to see the case of the wanted criminal.

  Master Liu naturally agreed to this, and immediately led Jiang Ran out of the door and walked around to another place. A room.

  In this room, there are all bookshelves, divided into categories and arranged according to year and month.

  Jiang Ran looked at these cases and felt a lot of comfort in his heart.

  He just felt that there was no file here... This is the alchemy recipe. !

  Master Liu gave Jiang Ran a few words, telling him that he can read it here and that the case cannot be taken away.

  But the sea arrest documents can be... But before taking them away, he needs to be notified and asked to draw another one.

  Jiang Ran wholeheartedly agreed, then he took out a portion, sat at the table and opened

  it. Seeing that he was fine, Master Liu turned around and

  went out. After closing the door behind him, he trotted all the way to the backyard.

  He came to the previous place In front of the courtyard, he knocked on the door:

  "Sir... I have something to report. "

  Come in. " "

  A deep voice came from the yard.

  Master Liu quickly opened the yard door and heard a whistling sound.

  When he looked up, he saw the frail and sick adult of their family throwing two huge stone locks away. Just like a hydrangea.

  He threw this one out, borrowed another one, threw it again, and caught the previous one. He lifted it

  with ease, looking extremely skillful.

  While throwing the stone lock casually, he said:
  "If you have something to say, just say it. Just fart. "

  Master Liu did not dare to go forward, for fear that the stone lock would fall and hit his head.

  This one weighed more than a hundred pounds and fell on his head and body. He would be seriously injured even if he died.

  So he took Jiang Ran from a distance . As I said, I told you about the Tang family.

  "Oh? "

  After hearing this, the frail and sickly adult had a look of astonishment on his face.

  He caught a stone lock and threw it aside:
  "Is there such a thing?

  "I've asked the government officials to go and find out. I think I'll get a reply soon. " "

  Yes. " The

  adult pondered slightly:
  "Actually, there is no need to investigate... Jiang Ran has no reason to lie and deceive you and me."

  "I'm afraid that the Tang family is really empty.

  "Being like this...why does it make me feel a little familiar?

  "What did your Excellency think of? "

  Master Liu asked quickly. The

  master pondered for a moment, but did not speak. He just shook his head and smiled:
  "It's okay. Big things are coming soon. Let's put aside the small things first."

  "Go down."

  The adult waved his hand gently.

  Although Master Liu felt that this was not a trivial matter, he still agreed and bowed to say goodbye.

  After Master Liu left, the adult's expression became a little solemn.

  "The first payment of tax money was sent ten years ago, which means they have stayed here for at least ten years.

  "Ten years..."

  He shook his head, went into the study room, dipped his pen in ink, wrote a few words, rolled it up and stuffed it into a bamboo tube.

  He took out a white pigeon from the birdcage on the side and tied the bamboo tube to the white pigeon's feet.

  With a shake of his hand, the pigeon suddenly flew into the sky.

  ...

  Jiang

  Ran stayed in the government office until evening.

  During this afternoon, he read many cases and recorded many wanted criminals in his mind.

  Thinking about it, if we meet on the road in the future, we will not be strangers to each other.

  After looking at it this afternoon, Jiang Ran also discovered a problem.

  There are often some differences in the sea fishing documents. Some of them say "capture alive", while others say "no matter whether they live or die".

  He looked for Daozhen and Zhang Dongxuan and found that the four words "life or death" were included in their sea arrest documents.

  This gave Jiang Ran some clarity. The reason why he could complete the task was to carry the head to the government office.

  I'm afraid it's because of this... If he were to capture someone alive and chop off his head, the task would probably not be completed.

  "That's not possible. Just kill the wanted criminal when you see him."

  The detectives sent by Mr. Liu to find out the whereabouts of the old drunkard had no news for the time being.

  When Jiang Ran left the government office, he made an agreement with him that if there was any news, he would send someone to find Jiang Ran.

  Jiang Ran could not leave Cangzhou Mansion until there was no news about this matter.

  The Tang family's house was empty, and it was even more impossible to stay there tonight. He walked and planned to find an inn to stay temporarily.

  Not far away, I saw an inn with its door open.

  Jiang Ran was not picky and walked in directly.

  As a result, the hall was overcrowded. A group of Jianghu people were equipped with weapons. They were in small groups, shouting and drinking, drinking from large bowls and eating large pieces of meat.

  Those who knew it was an inn, but those who didn’t knew it thought it was the Juyi Hall on the mountain.

  Jiang Ran was carrying a bag and a knife. As soon as he entered the door, the group of people all focused their attention on him.
