"You have all had close contacts with the traitor Wei Hao in the past. This traitor assassinated the Prime Minister and rebelled against the imperial court. He committed a heinous crime that cannot be punished! If there is any correspondence between Wei Hao and you, it is best... to hand it over!"

In the White Tiger Academy in the west city of Beiyang Prefecture, the patrolmen led a crowd to surround the academy and searched the entire academy.

All the statues, peach charms, etc. were confiscated.

"Bold! How dare you run rampant in White Tiger Academy? Who gave you the courage?"

A scholar stepped out with his eyes wide open, "Wei Xiangxiang assassinated Mr. Li Xianggong. That is Wei Xiangxiang's business. Why, you, a master of swordsman, dare to take the opportunity to use your power for personal gain?"

"Take it!"

The patrolman in black armor held a long sword with both hands and sneered, "Do you still think this is the past? Today is different from the past. Sirs, it is better not to force me to use force. If you are wise, I will give you good words and advice;

Those who are ignorant are Wei Ni’s comrades..."

While he was talking, several patrolmen pounced on him like wolves and tigers, threw out the chains and directly arrested the young scholar.

There was a longevity lock on the scholar's neck, which immediately burst into light and shook the chain open.

Seeing this scene, Xuanjia Lishi was immediately overjoyed. He knew that this must be an ancestral treasure. Normally, he would not be able to get it if he was greedy, but what time is it now?

As the country's destiny declines, the literary charm of scholars also declines. Without magic weapons to protect themselves, they are all lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Furthermore, he was acting under orders and the regulations were complete!

He acts in accordance with the law!

"I was ordered by the Second Saint to investigate Wei Ni's comrades. You don't know the country's favor, but you still resisted on your own, resisted in every corner, and resisted wildly! You must be Wei Ni's comrades! Take it down! Take it down! Take it down -"

The long knife in his hand suddenly vibrated, and the scabbard was like an arrow off the string, directly hitting the longevity lock. At the same time, the long knife broke the rope of the longevity lock in an instant.

Without the longevity lock to protect his body, the scholar was caught off guard and was directly hit by a knife on his neck.

"Boy, as I said before, today is different from the past..."

With a ferocious laugh, the black-armored warrior kicked the scholar over, and then shouted, "Take it down! Take it away -"

"yes!"

"Anyone who dares to resist will be treated as treason!"

"yes!"

The entire White Tiger Academy was immediately silent, and all the normally high-spirited scholars were as silent as cicadas.

At the same time, similar scenes occurred in the other four academies.

In addition, soldiers like wolves and tigers also broke into the courtyard walls from time to time in the east and west cities and various streets.

In just one day, the entire city of Beiyang Prefecture was as deserted as if it was winter again.

Everyone is in danger, fearing that he will be arrested next.

In a courtyard with the words "Chen Zhai" hanging on it, the one-armed Yaksha was still sharpening his ink while complaining: "The market has been a lot deserted these two days, and several bookstores have closed their doors.

, all calligraphers have lost their livelihood, can you still sell your writing for money?"

"I am a literary and romantic person, I don't sell anything for money."

After Chen Mengnan wrote hard, he stopped writing and took a rest. He drank early spring tea and ate the mung bean cake brought by Yasha from outside. He said with a contented face: "The market always rises and falls, just like the water of a spring river.

It rises when it should rise, and falls when it should fall. As a Yaksha, don’t worry too much about trivial matters.”

"..."

Originally I wanted to pick up an inkstone and cut open Chen Mengnan's head, but after thinking about it, it would be an insult to me to argue with such a slut.

"It's true. Elephant and I are as close as brothers. Why are these inspectors and demon-killing inspectors looking for scholars in the academy? How come no one cares about a great writer like me? Alas..."

Sighing, Chen Mengnan felt very lost and had a humble feeling of being despised by the world.

"Those scholars at least have the honor of being a scholar!"

"Are you looking down on my status as a scholar?"

"You? Scholar?"

Yasha curled his lips in disdain, retracted his fangs, and his expression was full of contempt.

"You 'Bao Family Immortal' better straighten your attitude, I am the head of this family!"

"snort."

Yasha was too lazy to pay attention to him, snorted softly and continued working.

The situation has become very complicated these days. When Yaksha walks at night, he often sees the precious light dissipating from many houses.

The mortal eyes cannot see the treasure light of these houses. Usually, only treasures passed down from ancestors, or if there is a fortune in the family, will the treasure light grow.

If the precious light is strong, it means great wealth; if the precious light is weak, it means small wealth.

Although he looks ugly and has a bad temper, because of Chen Mengnan, the "Guardian Demon Immortal" of Beiyang Mansion is still willing to chat with Yaksha for a while, and occasionally reveals some information.

Just like humans, elves have long-lasting feuding among their parents.

Whose family found the ancestral cornucopia, whose family gave birth to a unicorn, whose daughter-in-law had a prosperous husband... The elves knew about it much earlier than the neighbors.

Yaksha knew that there were several households nearby. They were just ordinary people. There were no scholars in their families. They either worked as drivers or helped people wash clothes.

But even for such residents, the precious light in their homes is also scattered.

The reason why they dispersed was that the patrolmen came to the door, and then it became like this.

In a bad mood, Yasha went out for a walk in the evening and looked back at "Chen's House". There was no trace of Baoguang, but the evil spirit was quite strong.

There is no way, this "Chen House" lives in Yaksha...

For a moment, Yasha didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Anyway, the people patrolling the Heavenly Prison would probably never come.

Even though Chen Mengnan has a close relationship with Wei Hao, Chen Mengnan is well-known and can be called the number one ladybug in Beiyang Mansion. If you want to torture this guy for information, you will definitely get nothing.

However, some legends are still very important to the people who patrol the sky, so they also have spies around, as well as spiritual pets to monitor the people's sentiments.

Several owls that were completely different from Jianghu night owls, with either snow-white or ink-black feathers, stood on the walls and eaves, staring at everything going on in Chen's house.

After Yaksha saw it, he didn't say much. Occasionally, some beasts with strong authority would come to block the road and ask questions. They didn't even speak with the same accent. They had five or six accents for three days in a row. They asked Yaksha about Chen Mengnan being rescued by Wei Hao.

details.

There was a beast among them, who looked like a dragon but not a dragon. He was from the side of "Nan Bohou", and he was a big monster with seven or eight hundred years of cultivation.

Yasha is not afraid of this, so he can say whatever he wants...

Can't beat it.

If he could survive the fight, how could he allow such beasts to interrogate him?

Nothing to be ashamed of.

"well……"

After the disgraced Yasha finished his walk, he went back to sit under the eaves of Chen's house. The market was not good these days. Bookstores, tea shops, taverns... were all closed.

The days when there is no progress are sad.

"Don't sigh outside."

"..."

Chen Mengnan was not at all panicked or anxious, as if having no money coming in every day was not a problem.

But as the "protector of the family" of Chen Zhai, Yaksha is still thinking about how to make Chen Zhai prosperous.

However, Chen Mengnan was just a pile of mud, with no hope of being able to climb up the wall.

"Look at your potential..."

With a creak, Chen Mengnan pushed open the door and walked out. It was a dark and windy night, and he actually wanted to go out.

"Are you going out in the middle of the night?"

Yasha was shocked. Is this going to open up new business and create a new career?

"If you don't have money, what are you afraid of? If you don't have money, think of a solution. Don't you already have the money?"

"Are you going to steal money from your father?"

"..."

Chen Mengnan's face turned green. "Baojiaxian" was really not interested in making a yaksha.

"I made a vow after I started my own business! I will never take even a penny from my father in the future!"

I swear to God, Chen Mengnan's fingers are straight and his momentum is still very strong.

This made Yasha appreciate it somewhat, and then asked: "Where can I steal it?"

"How can I, a noble man like Chen Mengnan, commit theft? You are a green-faced and tusked thing. It's really bad luck that you can't spit out ivory from your mouth!"

"You don't have much, and you don't have much ability. How can you make money if you don't steal or rob?"

"Fuck you, who said I have nothing to offer?"

After giving Yaksha a sideways glance, Chen Mengnan cursed and ignored him, holding a lantern and running leisurely towards the north of the city.
