Hesitantly, the young man still opened his mouth, "Benefactor, I wonder where you're going and if you still have urgent business to attend to?"

"Don't call it that, it sounds uncomfortable, it looks like we're about the same age, so let's just refer to each other as brother and sister."

The two of them mentioned their ages, and the man was a year older than Zhang Yunyan, so he was naturally the elder brother.

Zhang Yunyan didn't know what urgent matter he had to ask for, and said, "I don't have a certain place to go either, I'm looking for my enemy, and I don't know where he is hiding. Brother, do you know of a rich man named Feng Jiabao?"

The man shook his head, "I don t know, I have been to quite a few villages and towns, I have not heard of this person, probably not here. Benefactor ...... sister don t look for it in this county, go to other places to see it."

Zhang Yunyan sighed silently knowing that this would be the outcome.

That man frowned slightly, sighed softly, and added, "I had wanted to ask you to help with an urgent matter, but since my sister has something to do, I have no choice but to call it quits."

Yun Yan saw that he looked anxious, it seems that he really encountered something difficult, then asked, "Brother, what is the urgent matter, tell me."

"I'm a constable from the county office, and I'm checking on the case at White Heron Village."

White Egret Manor? Hearing this name, Zhang Yunyan felt that it was not unfamiliar, although she had never been here, she had heard of it.

After thinking about it, she finally remembered that in the Nine Ghost Monarch's cave, the Red-Haired Ghost King had mentioned it in his conversation with the Fire Dragon God and the Black Fiend. They had agreed to meet at the White Heron Manor, and she wondered if this was the place.

In doubt, Zhang Yunyan was puzzled, why did those demons and devils go to White Heron Manor? What was it there that interested them so much?

Yun Yan knew that the reason why the red-haired Demon King had invited the four Sai Taiyou brothers was because they were related to the Nine Hells Holy Monarch. She had always been skeptical, wondering what that old devil was up to that he still needed four demons to help him. It seemed that this matter was extraordinary and would not be good.

In this regard, Zhang Yunyan could not guess, nor could he confirm that those demons and devils were the ones who met here, and no longer thought much about it.

The young man informed that he was investigating a murder case, some signs of involving the royal family of this village, but could not find evidence, the case could not be traced for a while.

He sighed and said, "I am single and alone, my ability is limited, I have been anxious about the case, and I wanted to ask my sister to help. But ...... since my sister has something to do, I will not labor."

When Zhang Yunyan heard that it was a harmful thing, he was so annoyed that he couldn't leave it alone, so he agreed to stay.

The man was happy to see Yun Yan agree.

He then informed that the murder had been going on for a long time and had not been able to be solved, and that it was likely to have something to do with Wang Yantian, a big family in Bailuzhuang. The Wang family is a famous and wealthy family in this area with a bad reputation.

Wang Yantian! Zhang Yunyan was shocked again when she heard this name, having personally heard the red-haired Demon King mention it. That devil had asked the Fire Dragon God and the Black Fiend to go to White Heron Manor to help, and in his words, he had mentioned that White Heron Manor had a Master Wang named Wang Yantian.

Her heart fluttered, could it be that the White Heron Manor the devil spoke of was here? Was the Wang Yantian that the red-haired Demon King had spoken of the owner of the royal residence here?

Despite the village having the same name and Wang Yantian's name being the same, Zhang Yunyan still could not confirm that the place mentioned by the red-haired demon king was this place. Those demons would want to bully Wang Yantian's little madam, they wouldn't go after a rich party, it was someone else.

Zhang Yunyan's suspicions were hard to understand, even though he couldn't confirm that this was the village that the Red-Haired Ghost King had spoken of, and he was also a little worried. Counting, today was the fifth day after the agreement between the Red-Haired Ghost King and the Fire Dragon God Brothers, it was the time of the full moon, and also the day when the demons and devils met.

If this White Egret Manor was the place where the Red-Haired Ghost King met with those demons, things would be complicated, and it was very likely that he would encounter those demons and devils and get into murderous trouble.

Zhang Yunyan immediately thought of Sai Taiyou, and couldn't help but be shocked in her heart, that demon had already shown up here, seemingly foreshadowing that this White Heron Manor was the place where they had met, and that those four demons had already come here to meet up with the red-haired Ghost King.

Yun Yan did not know why those demons and devils came, whether it was for Wang Yantian's little madam or something else, and thinking about it could not confirm it, but could only guess at random.

Zhang Yunyan felt that the Red-Haired Ghost King had invited the four demons to come here to help each other, and if it was for a woman, there was no need to make a big fuss about it, so there must be something important. As for, what important things these guys had, it was unknown.

She was a little nervous about an encounter with the demons and devils, but not wanting to abandon them, she decided to stay and find out what was going on. If those evil spirits did come here and were going to do something to hurt people and kill them, they would have to be stopped somehow.

Speaking of stopping the demons from committing crimes, Zhang Yunyan silently sighed, how can they have the ability to fight with those guys ah, although they have the heart, but it is difficult to do ah.

Although the heart is not enough, Yun Yan can not turn a blind eye and a deaf ear, or to intervene. As for how to intervene, to what extent, she can only depending on the situation, must be careful, can not take their own lives.

Conversation, Zhang Yunyan understanding of the man, I heard that this person is a cloth, the new only recently made the county magistrate constable, can not help but be suspicious in mind.

How did an ordinary crop farmer leap to become a magistrate at the county office? Is there something unspeakable behind it?

Zhang Yunyan doubts difficult to release, very want to understand the situation of the governor, but also want to know this sheriff and the governor is what relationship, character how, so asked the original reason.

The man told him that the magistrate was a man of integrity, concerned about the people's plight, and well-liked by the people. It was by chance and luck that he was able to meet the governor and take him under his wing. He then told of his own life and experiences.

......

This man's name is Dong Fanglin. His hometown is not here. He has loved martial arts since he was a child, and has learned and practiced kung fu and weapons from martial arts practitioners in his village.

Later, he went out to learn from a master and practiced a good kung fu, not to say that his skill is high, but also not comparable to ordinary people.

Dong Fanglin's family was originally relatively wealthy, everything was managed by his parents, without having to worry about their own efforts, and lived a free life.

Later, his parents passed away one after another, and Fang Lin had to support the family alone. He didn't know how to organize his life, he didn't know how to do farming, he just left and didn't come in, the savings left by his parents were exhausted, the family's situation was getting worse and worse and the life was getting harder and harder.

Before his parents passed away, they had already fixed a marriage for him, which was the daughter of the Wang family in this village. The two of them have known each other since childhood, can be called childhood sweethearts, grew up with each other have a good feeling, a paper marriage contract to the two of them more closely, but also doubly close.

Seeing that it was difficult for him to support the family alone, Dong Fanglin wanted to get married as soon as possible so that he and his wife could support the family that had fallen into disrepair. However, the Wang family thought he was poor and unproductive, and broke off the marriage contract.

Dong Fanglin's unmarried daughter-in-law, Wang Yufen, whose parents have passed away, lives with her brother and sister-in-law.

Yufen was deeply in love with Dong Fanglin, and was very dissatisfied when she saw that her brother and sister-in-law had broken the marriage contract: "Brother, this marriage was set by father and mother, how can it be changed just like that? It is not against father and mother's wishes, and they can't repudiate the marriage."

"Brother is for your own good, the Dong family has been defeated, if you marry him, you will be worried about food and clothes, and there is no end to your poor life, how can you live? Sister wait a little longer, brother will choose a good family for you, so that you will be less tired, less suffering, and enjoy a lifetime of happiness."

"Brother, my marriage to the Dong family was finalized a long time ago, and the townspeople all know about it, so if we back out of the marriage, people will say that we are too poor to love the rich. At that time, how should we face the townspeople?"

"Sister, this kind of concern is a bit superfluous, it's better to think more for yourself, who cares about how other people talk about it, let them talk about it, what are you afraid of."

"Brother can't say that, it's embarrassing to be criticized. Besides, brother Fang Lin has a good character and is willing to work, it's difficult at the moment, but in the future the days will be better. My sister can't go against my father and mother's wishes, to follow him, is to suffer and be poor for the rest of my life, I'll accept it."

"I'm your brother, how can I let my sister suffer and be poor, don't say that, I won't let you marry him."

"No, I want to follow my parents' orders and not marry into the Dong family!"

"Sister, don't be capricious; I am in charge of this household. When father and mother are present, from father and mother; when father and mother are absent, you must listen to brother."

Wang Yufen is determined, and can not convince his brother, can only be all day in tears.

In fact, the brother is not only for her sake, but also his own little plan, parents before the death of his sister has been entrusted to him, and left a substantial dowry for Yufen, and later for her and Dong Fanglin to complete the marriage.

However, he saw the wealth and wanted to swallow the dowry and find a rich family for his sister to earn another dowry.

Yufen's elder brother's calculations are quite good, but fell through, Wang Yufen said to do, no matter what kind of family her brother found for her, how superior the conditions, just do not agree. She claimed that if she couldn't get married to Dong Fanglin, she would rather not get married in her life.

Dong Fanglin already knew Yufen's feelings and was very touched, but he could not afford to fulfill his brother and sister-in-law's conditions and was already disillusioned. He was listless and self-destructive all day long. He did not have the heart to do anything anymore, and he muddled along day by day.

Han Yude, a good friend from the same village, saw the urgency in his heart, and then pulled him up to go abroad to do business.

Leaving the sad place, Dong Fanglin's mood gradually improved and he also talked and laughed.

At the beginning, Han Yude and Dong Fanglin started a small business, making a little money by pouring money back and forth, and after accumulating some capital, their business gradually grew bigger. They bought and sold in different places, and soon earned thirty to forty taels of silver.

Dong Fanglin's heart has rekindled hope, want to wait until the end of the year to go home to marry Wang Yufen.

Unknown to him, there are unexpected circumstances, and people may suffer at any time. Dong Fanglin was unfortunate enough to become seriously ill and bedridden.

Han Yude in order to take care of him, no energy to take care of business, all day running around to ask for doctors to buy medicine, and do their best to cure his friend.

After a period of time, Dong Fanglin's condition not only did not improve, but also worsened day by day. The two of them were very anxious because there was not much money left.

Dong Fanglin knew that his condition was very serious, was in pain and despair, and no longer had any illusions.
