Chapter 223: Funeral

Naturally, the Zhou family slept well at night. Even if there were guards patrolling the night to see the firelight not far away, they just sent someone to report to the housekeeper, and then the housekeeper also sent several family members in time to help put out the fire. The people sent out had not come back yet, and no one expected that the fire was the Xu family.

Bai Yitian and the housekeeper of the Zhou family are naturally familiar. Knowing that Bai Yitian came in the middle of the night, he came out to welcome him. Bai Yitian didn't say anything and asked sadly, "Is the third young master there?" Hurry up and invite the third young master to come out and talk.

The housekeeper grabbed his head and was still thinking about it. He only knew that the Bai family and the young master were good friends. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he came to find the third young master. He quickly called someone to invite him, and then invited three people into the room and asked someone to come in for tea.

Sanlang didn't know why when he heard the letter, but he knew that there would be a big deal and didn't dare to delay. He followed his servants to the living room and smiled at Bai Yitian and said, "Brother Yitian, I only heard that I haven't seen you for a day. It's like three autumn. If I haven't heard that I haven't seen you at this time, it's better than Sanqiu."

Hearing this sentence, Bai Yitian didn't know how to answer. He trembling at the corners of his mouth, sat down on the chair and muttered, "It's a big deal!" Sanlang naturally guessed that it was a big deal, but he didn't know what it was, which made the county magistrate, who usually laughed and scolded, so sad.

In the candlelight, Bai Yitian's face is blue and his eyes are straight.

He gently pulled the corner of Sanlang's clothes and whispered, "Three young master, I'm sorry for you. The young master and the young lady... have all gone..."

Sanlang was shocked and interrupted him: "What are you talking about? The eldest brother and sister-in-law are obviously resting at home, but you... you are talking here!"

If you don't say anything, you will take a step back almost at the same time. The two look at each other. At this time, you will be crazy. If you are hindered by your identity, it is inconvenient to say more.

"Brother Yitian, why..." Sanlang's face was always used to fooling around. He could talk nonsense about anything. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he frowned and said to Bai Yitian, "It's really too much to joke about this kind of thing!"

"Sanlang..." Where can you joke about this kind of thing? Bai Yitian was full of bitterness and didn't pay attention to what Sanlang just said, "The fire of the Xu family burned... and no one survived..."

"What? Xu family? The whole...what the hell is going on?" The more Sanlang listens, the more confused he becomes. Is this a book? Anning has always had a watchman who patrols the night. If he really loses the fire, someone will find out. How can he obediently let the V of Fire God devour the whole yard?

"I just went to see it, and it's all gone..." Bai Yitian suppressed his grief and told all the situation he knew about the scene.

Bai Yitian's sad face and choking voice also attracted Sanlang's attention. He couldn't help straightening his body and his whole ears stood up. Although the sky is dry, the Xu family has always had many taboos on fire. How can it be possible to catch fire? One of them. Secondly, even if there is a fire, it is impossible for the Xu family to sleep to death. No one will find it, right? Finally, with so many people, the fire has been extinguished in time. How can no one survive?

Bai Yitian listened and sighed gently. Who said no? The obvious loophole is there, and anyone with eyes can see it, and even thinking of the previous fire in Dongsheng Village, Damn it, there is no other way for this man to set fire?

Thinking about this, Bai Yitian suddenly felt that Xue Jianming said that the fire broke out that night. She heard someone conspire outside the window. He and Zhou Bo always thought that Xue Jian had heard it wrong. After all, they were so frightened that night. The sound of the fire was complicated, and there were also mistakes. Looking back now, maybe it's all true. I didn't even choose the right direction about the fire. It's a little too wrong.

However, who would have such a deep hatred with such an ordinary person? In the past, he only saw Xue, but now Zhou Boxue saw Xu Cong'an and never let go of him. It can never be the wife of the Liu family!

Who will it be? For what?" Bai Yitian looked hateful, "Is it because Xuejian has implicated Brother Bo and Xu Weng, or is he going for the other two people? What's the matter? What can be worth taking such a life and set fire to it so unscrupulously?

"It's not only that, prince, the whole yard said that it was burned in such a short time, and it was clear that it was poured with fire oil and other things before burning." Without saying a word.

He nodded without saying a word and said nervously, "Those people died the same. They all died in the house, and it is also suspicious that no one escaped. Is it possible that they used ecze in advance?"

"It is said that it will take more careful examination to identify the body, so the bodies of the young master and the young grandmother... will be returned to the house in two days." Looking at Sanlang's appearance, he said cautiously.

Sanlang was stunned, wait, wait, what on earth did he miss? At first, he thought that each of the three people was just analyzing the case, and it sounded serious, but although he didn't expect that the more he said it, the more ridiculous it became, why did he start talking nonsense again? At least Bai Yitian has a good relationship with his brother and sister-in-law. Why is it still unobstructed to joke? Anyway, can't we talk about this matter of human nature? What's more, my sister-in-law is still pregnant with six, so she has to avoid it.

"If Mr. Bai wants to play, just wait for your brother and sister-in-law to get up tomorrow morning, and then you can continue to play. Let's see if my brother can tolerate you joking about this kind of thing!" Sanlang brushed his sleeves and wanted to go.

He can no longer hear such a vulgar performance. Although the singing and speaking are good, it is too disgusting.

When Bai Yitian heard this, he seemed to suddenly wake up and grabbed his sleeve. "Wait, Sanlang, what did you just say? Zhou Bo and Xuejian, they, they, they..."

"Sir, the third young master means that the young master and the young grandmother will get up early tomorrow and finish with us. Why did we come to report the news with good intentions, and they haven't finished with us..." Obviously, he tossed around for a night, and his mind was a little unconscious. He said angrily, "I think we can only blame ourselves for the kindness in exchange for the donkey liver..."

The words were not finished, and the words were covered by Fuyan, and the following words were covered back.

Sanlang was ignorant, but he also knew that the three masters and servants really came to the door to find trouble. They really misunderstood something.

Think about it again and you will understand. When the eldest sister-in-law came back to Zhou's house, she also had a temporary intention and had no prior plans. Xiao Qi Niang looked at the epiph, which attracted Xuejian to tell a story later, and then naturally stayed. Such a thing is even a surprise for the Zhou family, let alone people like Bai Yitian, it is impossible to guess.

Sanlang is a smart man after all. He explained the situation in three sentences. Bai Yitian almost vomited blood. This oolong made trouble. No matter how good the relationship between him and Zhou Bo is, he comes to report the funeral to me, I guess Zhou Bo, a cold-blooded young master, doesn't have a good face, right? However, without seeing Zhou Bo himself, he was worried. After all, he had just seen the charred yard with his own eyes and smelled the unpleasant smell in the air.

Therefore, Bai Yitian stayed at Zhou's house to rest when he asked him to go back to explain the situation to the county magistrate in person. However, he and Sanlang can't sleep. Now I'm more worried. What is the cause of this disaster? And will the situation continue to develop because the damn man is not dead?

"Tomorrow, the eldest brother will get up early for morning exercise, and then notify the eldest brother to come." Sanlang deliberately told his servants not to inform his brother in advance. My sister-in-law is pregnant, and I don't want to be scared. Let's talk about it tomorrow.

Suddenly, he was a little envious of Zhou Bolai. Such a big thing happened, but he could still sleep well all night. He and Sanlang were here. He analyzed the analysis of Wujiyan, and he was not sleepy at all.

Unexpectedly, the next day, the rare Zhou Bo did not get up early. The little wife had just returned home. Although she could not resist the lingering, moderate love was also indispensable. Who would want to leave his wife on such a loving morning?

But at the door, Xiaomei's hurried and low voice came: "Young master, young master, get up quickly..." It turned out that Xiaomei found that Zhou Bo did not get up for morning exercise at the set time, but rarely slept late and couldn't help getting up in a hurry.

"Is there something important?" Zhou Bo thought to himself that when he heard that Xiaomei's voice was different, he knew that there must be many blessings and important things to pass on, so Xiaomei came to call the door. Thinking of this, Zhou Bo is such a calm person with three points less demeanor. Looking at the snow in her arms, she quickly let go, then got out of bed, put on her clothes, accelerated her feet, and rushed to the door.

Xiaomei at the door also looked embarrassed. At the thought that the angry young master might turn into a cold-faced killer, her heart thumped. Duofu, are you hurting me?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Bo himself said, "Is there something wrong with you?"

"Yes, young master." Xiaomei immediately reacted, "Duofu waited for you at the door of the inner courtyard early in the morning, saying that there was something important to do. Mr. Bai and the third young master were waiting for you in the living room."

Zhou Bo nodded, "I know. I'll be there right away." Although I can't figure out what's wrong, it's the first time for Bai Yitian to come to the door before dawn. Let's go out and meet him. After a simple grooming, Zhou Bo told Xiaomei to pay attention to Xue, and then left the hospital.

"Morning, young master." Out of the door, servants kept saluteing Zhou Bo all the way. Zhou Bo just nodded and went straight to the door of the outer courtyard.

At the gate of the outer courtyard, Duofu, who was sweating heavily, looked nervous. Young master, you are out. Mr. Bai has been waiting for you for half night.

Zhou Bo quickly walked to him, "Is this...?"
