In the middle of the night, Changying came and knocked on the door.
"master!"
Qiu Mobai was suddenly awakened. He rubbed his forehead, suddenly thought of something, and quickly looked around the room.
There were no outsiders, nor were there the two figures in black.
He frowned, wondering if he was dreaming.
Changying was waiting outside anxiously and knocked on the door gently again.
"Master, Master, please wake up quickly. I have something to report."
Qiu Mobai finally came back to his senses.
Seeing Qingqing sleeping soundly beside him, he quietly got up, put on his clothes, and was about to open the door. When he passed the soft couch, he suddenly stopped.
He is a very cautious person and everything is arranged in an orderly manner.
But now, not only was the cushion on the couch tilted, but the small table in front of it was also pushed aside.
It was obvious that someone had moved it.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the ground carefully again, and found two faint footprints on the ground.
He was stunned.
He thought to himself, it turned out that he wasn't dreaming when he saw those two people last night.
He thought of the girl who looked very much like Qingqing, and the man who looked very much like himself.
Qiu Mobai was a little uneasy.
At this time, Changying urged again, "Master! Master, you..."
Before Changying could finish speaking, the door opened.
Qiu Mobai asked solemnly, "What happened?"
Changying said quickly.
"Last night, the master asked me to look after Mr. Liu's house."
"When I first went there, I didn't find anything unusual."
Chang Ying seemed to have thought of something, his face turned pale, "Later, the subordinates went to the backyard, some hidden place."
"I discovered a lot of, um, very dirty things..." He really couldn't bring himself to say those things.
"Originally, I was thinking of returning to report to my master."
"But unexpectedly, two men in black suddenly appeared in Mr. Liu's house, killing people indiscriminately, and finally set it on fire. Almost everyone inside was burned to death."
"I wanted to go up to put out the fire, but I couldn't get in."
Qiu Mobai pursed his lips and thought, it’s the man in black again.
He frowned and asked, "No one alive?"
Chang Ying was confused and shook his head. "The children in the mansion are all gone. I don't know what happened."
Qiu Mobai narrowed his eyes, "Those two men in black, can you tell what they are up to? Are they friends or enemies?"
Chang Ying shook his head. "I was afraid of being discovered by them, so I stayed quite far away. I couldn't tell if they were friends or enemies!"
"What are the characteristics of the man in black?" Qiu Mobai asked again.
Chang Ying thought about it and described, "It was too dark, so I couldn't see their faces clearly. However, I saw two people from a distance, and they should be a man and a woman. They were both wearing night clothes and didn't seem to be wearing masks."
Qiu Mobai suddenly thought of the two people who came to his room.
Could it be them?
But why?
What's going on with them? They look a lot like him and Qingqing in the future.
It can't be from the future, right?
But then he thought of Qingqing and her special abilities, and he felt that nothing was impossible.
"By the way, I don't know why, but I always feel like they look familiar..."
As soon as Changying finished speaking, the little boy rushed over quickly and clasped his fists.
"Master, just now, there was a fire in the residence of Linjiang City Governor Xue Zan and Lord Pang Long's residence."
"There were also fires in several adults' homes."
"besides……"
Qiu Mobai rubbed his forehead.
"what else?"
The boy frowned and continued, "I also found that the door of the prefect's treasury was open, and there was nothing inside."
"The same is true for the treasury of a huge family."
"It's like a robbery."
Qiu Mobai was slightly stunned.
"You said their houses were robbed!"
The boy nodded, "Because the master arranged for us to keep an eye on Pang Long, and later we found out that he went to Mr. Liu's house."
"So I followed."
"It was later discovered that the prefect Xue Zan also went to Liu Yuanwai's house. The two of them even met secretly."
"But I was afraid of revealing my whereabouts, so I didn't get too close."
But she still saw something disgusting! She really didn't want to talk about it.
"Later, we saw two people in black, probably a man and a woman. They killed Pang Long and Xue Zan, and took away the two children."
"Then they set fire to the mansion."
"I followed them quietly and went to Pang Long's house. I saw them wandering around the house, then they set a fire and ran away."
The little boy was a little confused when he said this.
"The places they went to, like the storeroom, the main courtyard, the study, the kitchen, etc., were all empty!"
"There's not even a pot or pan left in the kitchen!"
"I also heard people in Pang Long's house crying and shouting, saying that all the things in the house were stolen."
"Now I can't even take out a penny."
"I followed two men in black to Xue Zan's residence again, and it was the same thing!"
"Storage, main courtyard, study, kitchen!"
"They left nothing behind wherever they passed..."
The little boy touched his head and said, "Master, I don't understand! How did they do it?"
Chang Ying was also surprised, "What kind of bandits are they? They can rob two officials' houses so completely."
The little boy muttered, "Even if the old emperor confiscated his property, it wouldn't be so clean."
Qiu Mobai's eyes flickered slightly, and his intuition told him that it must be related to those two people. It might also be related to himself and the current Qingqing.
Because he only knew Qingqing who could collect everything quickly.
This is really a mess, it’s hard to sort out!
Qiu Mobai rubbed his forehead and said to the two, "Alright, keep watching, and report back to me if anything happens."
"Yes!" The two men quickly retreated.
[Ah, what on earth is going on? ] Qingqing suddenly screamed in her heart.
Qiu Mobai was stunned and quickly pushed the door open.
[How come there are so many good things in my secret realm? ]
[Also, where did those kids come from? ]
[Could it be that my secret realm has been stolen? ]
[Is anyone allowed to come in? ]
Qingqing had just fallen asleep and somehow entered the secret realm. She was shocked to see the things and people inside.
But before she could figure out what was going on, she was kicked out of the secret realm again.
She was confused and sat on the bed in a daze.
Until Qiu Mobai walked to her side, held her in his arms, and coaxed her gently.
"Qingqing, why are you awake now? Did you have a nightmare?"
Qingqing frowned, looking confused.
"This is scarier than a nightmare, okay?"
Both of them were stunned.
Qiu Mobai asked in surprise, "Qingqing, is your throat better?"
