In the end, Gu Anning couldn't hold back Hua Manlou's smile, and after drinking the medicine helplessly, he washed his face with the water that Lu Xiaofeng called, and sat obediently on the bed.

Lu Xiaofeng stood lazily on the side, stretched out his hand to stroke his mustache, "Can you find a way to find the fox's body?"

After leaving the fox ghost mission, it is equivalent to a different person, which has nothing to do with the cause and effect of the mission, so he can't feel the physical body like when he was a fox ghost.However, he has just become a ghost.

The soul-hunting ghost holds a booklet in his hand, and he can see the name and time of death of the deceased.He doesn't have much memory of the task target, but he still has the ability.No matter how you say it, the soul-hunting ghost is a ghost agency with a formal establishment. It is much easier to check something through it than to simply investigate as a human being.

But how to explain it to Lu Xiaofeng is a big problem.

With Lu Xiaofeng around, Huamanlou's sense of presence is not high, he is always quiet, leaving all the reasoning work to Lu Xiaofeng, occasionally adding a few words, he seems to be an indifferent gentleman.Huamanlou is so harmless, Gu Anning even felt that even if he revealed his identity in front of him, he would not ask too many questions.Lu Xiaofeng couldn't do it, maybe one time, Lu Xiaofeng strung together all his identities, and found out his old background through some corner and corner clues.

Gu Anning cherishes the present life, he just wants to cure his disease and live a normal life.

Gu Anning lowered his eyes, and was silent for a while, Lu Xiaofeng asked: "You have a way to find the corpse, but you don't know how to explain it?"

The ready-made reason made Gu Anning heave a sigh of relief, he nodded obediently, "If I say it's intuition, would you believe it?"

"The matter of ghosts and gods can't be explained, just like you can see it, but Hua Manlou and I can't see it. Maybe this intuition is also a hint in the dark? I know very little about it. It doesn't matter what the conclusion is. Besides, there is no better way, why don't you believe me?"

Gu Anning smiled, completely relieved, "It turns out that Lu Xiaofeng is also a considerate person."

Lu Xiaofeng frowned, "Hey, that's an exaggeration! After you woke up, wasn't it Hua Manlou and I who were busy? Look at the medicine you drink, and your face wash, Didn't it all come from me? I've never served anyone like this in my life, and you don't know how to be blessed, and now you think I'm considerate?"

Hua Manlou also laughed, "If one day Lu Xiaofeng stops wandering around casinos and investigating cases, and becomes a servant boy, he will be able to make a living."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Then I'll go to Hua's house to be a servant. In view of the old friendship, Young Master Hua Qi will treat me kindly."

Gu Anning was a little envious of the friendship between Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou.He has no friends, and he hasn't even been to serious school for a few days. Most of the time he stays in his small yard, playing with flowers, plants and books.

When three people are chatting, one should not exclude the other person from the topic for too long. Hua Manlou stopped in time and did not speak again.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "An Ning, what is your solution? What do we need to do?"

"The fox's bone was made into a pendant." Gu Anning closed her eyes, rubbing the soft quilt under her hand, "It's a sword pendant, which was sent to Baiyun City in the South China Sea."

"Let's not talk about Baiyun City...its bones only turned into pendants? Nothing else?"

"No."

"Okay." Although he has never seen a ghost with his own eyes, the unthinkable things in the past few days are enough to make him think and rethink the appearance of this world. Lu Xiaofeng quickly accepted this setting, and continued: "Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, He is a well-known swordsman. It seems that I have to make a trip, I just hope that Ye Gucheng can get along better."

The sword is always the first thing in the hearts of swordsmen. They practice the swordsmanship of killing people, and the sword pendant is not so important as a decoration.

Gu Anning asked: "Are you going to take me there?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "The South China Sea is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, not to mention whether your body can withstand the journey all the way, but since Eldest Young Master Gu knows that I want to take you to the South China Sea, he has to put up a list and offer a reward for my head."

Gu Anning calmly fought for a chance for himself, "You have no way to confirm which sword pendant it is."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "There may be no difference between one sword pendant and all the sword pendants to Ye Gucheng."

Lu Xiaofeng's gaze was too firm, Gu Anning felt that he saw the words "don't even think about it" from inside, and when he thought about the impression he had left on Lu Xiaofeng when he fainted a few times before, Gu Anning felt ashamed to make a fuss about it.

"Okay." Gu Anning compromised.He couldn't guarantee that the system would not issue tasks on the way to Baiyun City. Freedom was the most luxurious thing before he recovered.

Hua Manlou walked over and patted Gu An Ning on the shoulder lightly.

Gu Anning was quickly comforted by Hua Manlou, and suppressed her depression.

"I'm used to it, don't worry, thank you." Gu Anning said again: "Speaking of which, your friend named Monkey King may be able to help."

"Sikong Zhaixing?" Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, realizing the connection, "You want him to steal the sword pendant?"

Gu Anning nodded, "He said that he will do things for whoever pays him."

"That's a way..." Lu Xiaofeng was thoughtful, and after a while, he turned his head and smiled at Gu Anning: "But before I leave, I have to send you back to the village."

"..."

Gu Anning originally thought that if she didn't go to Baiyun City with her, she could happily stroll around Chang'an City after Lu Xiaofeng left, and eat some meat and desserts that were usually taboo at home.I heard that the mutton steamed buns and fat sheep stew in Chang'an City are delicious. It would be the best if you can add some chili and pepper.

All the good things were broken by Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng did what he said, and sent Gu Anning back to Gu's Village on the same day, then patted his ass and left.

Hua Manlou also came to Gu's Village together, because Gu Anning wanted to see what exactly Hua Manlou was taken away after nightfall.

Young Master Gu was not at home, so Gu Anning ordered his servants to build a bed in his room.As the sky was still bright, Gu Anning chatted with Hua Manlou about daily life, only to find that they had a lot in common.

"I didn't expect you to have six older brothers," Gu Anning sighed, "I only have one older brother, and I am so tightly controlled. I really can't imagine how you will be treated at home."

His health is not good, and Hua Manlou can't see it with his eyes. Both of them are the weakest sons in the family, so they won't get too little attention.There is always a limit to everything, like Gu Anning, who is controlled even in his actions and diet, and is bound in a small house. After enjoying freedom in his previous life, he will naturally feel out of breath.

Hua Manlou smiled, "It's not bad. My brothers are much older than me. They need to take care of the family's business. The eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother also have family backgrounds. There are many things waiting for them to do."

He has moved out of Hua's house and lives alone in a small building in the south of the Yangtze River, which is really his own place.

Gu Anning was a little envious, "My elder brother doesn't often accompany me, but Qiutang and the others won't give in on some things under the orders of elder brother." He sighed, "I finally went to Chang'an, Being under Lu Xiaofeng's control again, he couldn't even walk around."

Speaking of which, Gu Anning himself felt that this wish was a little naive, so he couldn't help laughing.

"If you tell Mr. Gu these words, he will definitely not refuse." Hua Manlou comforted him gently.

"makes sense."

The two had a light dinner, walked around the yard, and finally stayed up until night.

Gu Anning could tell that Huamanlou was a little bit out of energy.

He felt tired after traveling all day, but Hua Manlou looked even more tired than Gu Anning.

"Have you ever tried not to sleep?" Gu Anning asked him.

Hua Manlou said: "I tried...but every time I couldn't hold it for too long and lost consciousness..."

Gu Anning nodded, "Go to sleep, Qiutang and the others are here, don't worry about me."

Hua Manlou returned to the bed, and soon her breathing rate became slow, apparently she had lost consciousness.

Gu Anning yawned, opened the door, and was blown by the cool night wind, sobering up a lot.

Qiutang came over with a lantern, and looked at him distressedly, "Second Young Master, go to bed early when you are tired... Qiutang said something inappropriately, most people who are in the rivers and lakes are licking their blood, you really shouldn't get involved Come in."

"But I've already gotten involved." Qiutang took care of him for several years, and almost every time he came back from a mission, Qiutang was there to take care of him.When facing Qiutang, Gu Anning always felt at ease. He vaguely remembered that he had a sister in his previous life, and the impression he left was very similar to Qiutang.

Gu Anning could tolerate Qiutang's discipline, so Qiutang was kept by Mr. Gu's side.

Gu Anning said again: "Those things that are out of reach on weekdays also have a set of rules. Now that I have seen it, there is no way to stay out of it."

"Since the second young master has said so, this servant can't say anything more, please take care of yourself. It's windy outside, and this servant will help you back to the house."

Qiu Tang brewed a pot of mint tea to refresh Gu Anning, and the servants in the courtyard got the letter and waited inside, fearing that Gu Anning would be in danger.

Time passed very slowly, Gu Anning drank more than half of the pot of mint tea, there was still no movement outside, and Hua Manlou slept soundly.

Another half an hour passed, and it was nearly three quarters of the day when there was finally a sound outside the door.

A little girl in a plain dress walked through the door and appeared directly inside the room.

She is not tall, and her cheeks are fleshy, and she looks innocent and cute.It's just that the cyan birthmark at the corner of her eye made her face look hideous instead of being beautiful and delicate.

There was gloating in the eyes of the little girl, the moment she entered the room, she was still muttering to herself, "If you promise me, it must not count~ Come home with me..."

Qiu Tang was still standing next to Gu Anning, Gu Anning's body froze the moment the girl appeared, and instantly recovered her indifference.

He looked at the girl coldly and didn't speak.

The girl blinked, and suddenly realized that the man next to her could see her, so she turned her eyes away from Hua Manlou and stared at Gu An Ning in a daze.

When she met Gu Anning's eyes, she suddenly opened her mouth and let out a sharp cry: "Ah——!! It's you!!"

Gu Anning was taken aback by her. If he was a ghost, he must have a way to restrain the little resentful soul. Unfortunately, he is a human being now, and he can't think of how to do it for a while.

The girl pointed at Gu Anning, and took two steps back in horror. She seemed to have forgotten that she had died a long time ago, and her expression of fear was the same as that of ordinary people, "Fox!! You are a fox!"
