Cheng Zizai's feet increased by another three points. Linghu Changxiu's wound was stepped on and almost fainted, but she couldn't really faint because Cheng Zi's feet kept increasing their strength, and the pain made him unable to even hold back and scream!

Cheng Zizai said, "What's your name? If I don't kill you, who should I ask for money?"

Linghu Changxiu was in great pain and had lost his mind. He shouted: "My name is Linghu Changxiu. Just ask my brother Linghu Changqing for money. Let me go, I will hurt!"

Cheng Zizai was overjoyed. He didn't expect to catch someone after entering the Linghu family. He thought he had to search for it, and was ready to fight. He never expected that as soon as he jumped into the yard, he stabbed Linghu Changxiu to the ground!

At this time, a servant ran over in the front yard. Linghu Changxiu screamed so miserably. When the servants heard it, they naturally wanted to see what was going on. However, they did not realize that there might be risks. They thought that Linghu Changxiu fell and injured somewhere!

But when the servants ran to the back garden, they saw a masked man holding a long sword in his arms. The second master Linghu Changxiu was trampled by the masked man, and the servants were stunned. No one could imagine that someone would run to this mansion to act wildly. This is the outer house of Linghu Changqing, the chief supervisor of the inner court. No one in Chang'an would not know?

The servants came too quickly. They didn't take weapons. They were anxious, but no one thought about it carefully. Then they shouted and rushed up to rescue Linghu Changxiu. From this point of view, Linghu Changxiu was very touched!

But Cheng Zizai didn't care. He turned the long sword and used the back of the knife to chop the servants. Although the back of the knife was not as sharp as the blade, it was extremely painful when chopped on people. The servants did not know martial arts and were not the opponent of Cheng Zizai at all. In just a moment, they were all knocked to the ground. One servant saw that something was wrong, but turned around and ran away.

Cheng Zizai defeated the servants, and he did not waste time. Instead, he grabbed Linghu Changxiu, like an eagle catching a chicken, took him to the front yard, and said to him: "Where is the kitchen?"

Linghu Changxiu did not answer immediately. He couldn't figure out why this masked man asked the kitchen. In addition, he was sweating in pain, so he answered a little slower!

Cheng Zizai said, "You won't answer, right? Take me another knife!" He pointed the long knife at Linghu Changxiu's butt and stabbed it again. The knife stabbed it right next to the wound in front!

Linghu Changxiu screamed. He didn't expect that the masked man would really stab him again. He didn't dare to delay any more and quickly said, "You'll be there when you go left, right in the front yard!"

Cheng Zizai smiled and said, "If I ask you about your study or bedroom, it would be fine if you don't answer. If you ask you about your kitchen, you don't answer. I'm saying whether you deserve a poke, tell me, do you deserve a poke!"

"Yes, yes, I need to stab me. Please don't stab me again!" Linghu Changxiu thought that the most painful moment in his life, that is, now, he has never been frightened by this, nor has anyone stabbed his butt with a knife!

Cheng Zizai strode to the kitchen. When the servant here saw him carrying Linghu Changxiu over, he was so scared that he ran away and no one dared to come forward to stop him.

Cheng Zizai threw Linghu Changxiu to the ground, then went into the kitchen, took a few oil cans, threw it on the pile of firewood, and took a little fire. In an instant, the fire started to rise and black smoke rolled. From the outside, it seemed that it had caught fire!

Linghu Changxiu took advantage of Cheng Zizai's time to set fire and struggled to get up. Unfortunately, his butt hurt so much that he could not walk out by himself. In the end, he had to lie down again and wanted to use his hands and feet. He climbed out of the kitchen yard. He didn't climb too far. He was still a long distance away from the yard gate. Cheng Zizai had already set off the fire!

Cheng Zizai walked up to Linghu Changxiu and smiled and said, "You are so dishonest. I don't tie you up and it's my trust in you. I believe you won't run away, but you really dare to run away. You let down my trust in you, and I want to punish you!"

Cheng Zizai lifted his foot away and stepped on Linghu Changxiu's butt. He used a lot of force, and stepped on Linghu Changxiu to death. This pain is truly unforgettable for him.

However, Linghu Changxiu had already understood a truth at this time. Unless his brother came back to rescue him personally, he would not want to escape. It was because the servants of his brother's family were too weak in attacking the assassins!

Cheng Zizai picked up Linghu Changxiu and walked to the backyard again. This time he was looking for the bedroom.

Outside the courtyard, Li Rizhi saw a thick smoke suddenly popping up inside the house, and black smoke rolled. He knew that Cheng Zizai had succeeded and said to Peng Ji: "Peng Shibo, look, that house has caught fire!"

Peng Ji also saw the black smoke. He immediately turned around and shouted at the yamen runners and Wu Hou in the yard: "Whose house is that? Why is it on fire? Why are you still standing stupidly? Go and put out the fire quickly!"

As he said that, Peng Ji took the lead and ran to Linghu Changqing's house first. The yamen runners behind him immediately followed, and the large number of Wuhou did not dare to neglect and quickly ran away.

But the Wuhou were all a little puzzled. County Magistrate Peng had never been to this yard. This was the first time he came back. After entering the yard, he arrived here directly. After waiting for a while, the house of the Grand Chief Linghu Housekeeper caught fire. Then County Magistrate Peng took everyone to put out the fire. This was wrong. It felt like the Grand Chief Peng had known that the Grand Chief Linghu Housekeeper was about to catch a fire!

Although the Wuhou found it strange, no one dared to say more and could only go out with the fire!

When Peng Ji arrived at the gate, they didn't have to call the door. When they saw that the gate was open, several servants, including men and women, ran out of them, all of them were panicked. Peng Ji shouted, "Whose family is this? Why is it on fire?"

A servant saw a large group of people coming outside, and the leader was a fifth-rank official. He did not recognize Peng Ji, but shouted: "My masters, help me. This is the home of the head of the Linghu General. There are robbers who broke in, killing people and setting fires, killing my second master, begging you all to help me!"

Peng Ji was overjoyed, okay, since you invited us in, then there will be something to say from now on. Even if you can't find anything, it won't make Linghu Changqing turn against each other on the spot. We didn't want to go in. It was your servant who begged us to go in!

Peng Ji shouted: "Everyone hurry up, catch the robbers and put out the fire, hurry up, don't waste time!"

He jumped off his horse and rushed into the yard first. Behind him, Li Rizhi and the others also rushed in, and rushed into Linghu Changqing's house.

Although the black smoke in the house is strong, it is actually just the firewood in the kitchen that is on fire. In order to prevent fire, the firewood is originally placed separately and is not against the wall, so the fire will basically not spread. Of course, it will not spread in the absence of strong winds, so there is no need to panic too much. Just put out the fire step by step.

But the people rushing in outside didn't know about this, and rushed towards the direction of the fired kitchen. Peng Ji was a few steps behind. He waved at Li Rizhi and the others, and the few people did not go to the kitchen, but went straight to the bedroom in the backyard.

Several people, who were panting, went to the backyard together. They happened to see Cheng Zizai walking to the door with Linghu Changxiu. Li Rizhi shouted: "Who is this person? Is it Linghu Changxiu?"

Cheng Zizai smiled and said, "Yes, he is Linghu Changxiu. I have been caught by me. You can do whatever you should do. I have to apply some knife wound medicine to this guy so that he will die if he loses too much blood."

Li Rizhi said, "Don't apply medicine to him first. You have to ask him where Linghu Changqing hides things. If there is any evidence, Linghu Changqing will definitely not put it on the open. There may be a dark room or a secret wall. We are afraid it will be difficult to find it, so just ask him directly!"

Fu Guibao followed and shouted, "If he doesn't say it, let him bleed and die!"

This sentence scared Linghu Changxiu. There was an official among these people. Although his rank was not as high as his elder brother, he was also an official. What they meant was that they had known each other for a long time. Could it be that they came not for themselves, but for Linghu Changqing?

Linghu Changxiu made up his mind in an instant. No matter how the other party tortured him, he could not tell where the brother was hiding his belongings. He would never betray his brother!

Cheng Zizai listened to Li Rizhi's instructions and nodded. He threw Linghu Changxiu to the ground with his hands loosened, and then stepped on Linghu Changxiu's butt. With just this step, Linghu Changxiu really felt that life was worse than death. What a strong person, what a shame, what a betrayal of his brother, all of them were thrown behind his head!

Linghu Changxiu shouted: "There is a secret room in my brother's bedroom, right behind the bookshelf. Don't step on it, it hurts me so much!"

Cheng Zizai let go of his feet, picked up Linghu Changxiu and said, "If not, then don't blame me for stepping on you again!"

Fu Guibao arrived at the door of the bedroom, kicked it out, and opened the door of the bedroom. Everyone entered the bedroom together and saw that the bedroom was divided into two inside and outside rooms. There was nothing to look at in the outside rooms, and there was no bookshelves. Peng Ji was anxious and rushed into the inner room. The inner room was close to the bed, and there was indeed a bookshelves!

Judging from the size of this bookshelves, it happens to be the same size as a door, with more than a dozen sets of books neatly placed on it, but from the cover, they are all relatively common books on the market. I guess Linghu Changqing just used these books to show off, and he himself didn't read much.

Cheng Zizai asked, "How do you open this secret room?"

In these days, those who own secret rooms must be big shots, and opening such secret rooms will be more or less dangerous.

The people in the countryside definitely cannot use this kind of thing. It is useless to build a secret room. They can't put some hoes and shoulder poles in the secret room. Moreover, the rich family of the local rich man has at most a secret grid, and the secret grid is often placed next to the pillow and put some money and land deeds inside, so there will be no information about the mechanism.

But the secret room of the big man's house is different. It often contains valuable items. In order to prevent someone from stealing, there will be some information from the agency. If you don't pay attention when opening the secret door, you may be injured or even die!

Linghu Changxiu hesitated for a moment and said, "Push it to the left!"

When Li Rizhi looked at his expression, he knew that the secret door must have something in mind, and shouted: "Use him to block it, and then push this bookshelves!"

Cheng Zizai immediately blocked Linghu Changxiu, but did not push the bookshelf, just waiting for Linghu Changxiu to beg for mercy. Sure enough, Linghu Changxiu was so scared that she immediately shouted: "Push it right, you can't push it left, you will shoot an arrow!"

Li Rizhi then stepped forward and pushed the bookshelf to the right. It didn't take much effort. The bookshelf was easily pushed open, revealing the secret room inside. This secret room was not big and there were not many things inside. It must be that Linghu Changqing had just developed for a while, so there were not many things to hide.

As soon as the secret door opened, Peng Ji immediately strode in. Li Rizhi frowned from behind. This Peng Shibo was really impatient and was not afraid of the mechanism inside. He also followed him into the secret room.

There is a half-person-high copper alchemy furnace in this secret room, but it looks like it has never been used before. There are also some alchemy utensils and a small table with several boxes on the table, each box looking quite expensive.
