Chapter 88 Master, your servant has been waiting for you for so long!
After finishing his tea, Lord Liu hurriedly left the archives with his men.
According to him, the unfinished files will be left here, and he will come back tomorrow.
After Liu Xun and the others left, Zhou Yi looked at Ding Yi, his eyes red with anger.
"Ding Hai! Are you doing this on purpose?! Are you just waiting to embarrass me so you can trick me?!"
Zhou Yi pointed at Ding Yi and roared.
"Get the hell out of here, you son who's born without an anus!"
Ding Yi wasn't going to tolerate Zhou Yi, and he pointed at him and started scolding him, then said:
"If I hadn't come to your rescue, you'd be dragged out and shredded into a human skeleton by now! And you still dare to curse me!?"
"you!!"
Zhou Yi covered her face, looking at Ding Yi's cold expression. She was immediately frightened and dared not say anything more. Instead, she flung her sleeves and angrily left the place.
"Xiao Ding, you did a good job."
Old Mo slowly walked to Ding Yi's side and said with a smile.
"It was good that Elder Mo reminded me."
Ding Yi quickly smiled.
"Work hard, this will be the domain of you young people in the future."
After finishing his sentence, Old Mo swayed back to his recliner and sat down. He then closed his eyes and rhythmically patted the armrest of the chair with his right hand, seemingly waiting for his shift to end.
Ding Yi looked in the direction Liu Xun had left, feeling somewhat apprehensive. After all, he didn't know whether the pill would work or how effective it would be.
Time passed slowly, and soon it was time to finish the shift.
Ding Yi walked to the front yard, took the waist token from the wooden shelf, and was about to walk out when he suddenly heard someone call his name.
"Ding Hai!"
Ding Yi turned his head and saw that it was one of the officers who had come with Liu Xun during the day.
"Is there something you need, sir?"
Wang Mingyuan, an underling of Zhao Xuan, looked at Ding Yi and said with a forced smile:
"Lord Liu is looking for you, young Ding. I didn't realize you were so good at being a dog. Come with me."
The people of Yangyang Palace are rumored to be bisexual, and Ding Yi naturally knew what Wang Mingyuan was thinking. He sneered inwardly, secretly memorizing Wang Mingyuan's appearance, but his expression remained unchanged. Instead, he said calmly:
"Please lead the way, sir."
Seeing Ding Yi like this, Wang Mingyuan felt bored and didn't say anything more. He then led Ding Yi out of the patrol office.
As the two walked out of the courtyard, Ding Yi noticed a carriage parked at the gate.
The two horses pulling the carriage were about eight feet tall, with bluish fur and shiny coats. A red line ran along their backs to their tails, creating a vibrant red against the bluish-green coats.
As the two demonic horses waited there, their hooves pounded incessantly on the bluestone bricks, making a loud "clattering" sound on the ground. At the same time, they spewed out scorching white steam from their mouths and nostrils, appearing extremely agitated.
Since seeing the demonic image of Sun Qiao'er when she entered the city, Ding Yi was no longer as surprised as he was when he saw the demonic horse. Instead, he wondered how much lifespan he could gain if he killed these two beasts.
"Which one of you is Lord Ding? Please, Lord Ding, get in the carriage."
The coachman sitting in front looked at Ding Yi and the other man and said something.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi glanced at the officer surnamed Wang beside him, then expressionlessly lifted the curtain of the carriage and stepped onto the stairs to enter the carriage.
When Ding Yi entered the carriage, he found that the huge carriage was beautifully decorated, and there was even sandalwood burning on the wooden floor in the corner.
"That's quite extravagant."
Ding Yi thought to himself, then sat down on the soft couch in the carriage and closed his eyes to rest.
On the other side, the coachman saw Ding Yi get into the carriage, so he flicked his whip. The blue demon horse received the signal, and with a slight push of its four hooves, it slowly moved the huge carriage along.
Upon witnessing this scene, the constable surnamed Wang immediately turned his head, spat, and then left the area.
The blue demon horse ran very steadily, and Ding Yi, sitting in the carriage, didn't feel any bumps. Of course, this was also because the roads in the inner city were very smooth.
After about half a cup of tea's time, the carriage slowly came to a stop in front of a mansion.
"Lord Ding, we've arrived."
The coachman's voice came from outside the carriage. Ding Yi opened his eyes and then lifted the curtain to get out of the carriage.
The carriage stopped at a large mansion, where two maids dressed in light-colored palace dresses were standing with their heads bowed, waiting in front of the gate.
After Ding Yi alighted from the carriage, two maids moved over with light, quick steps, performed a curtsy to Ding Yi, and then one of them spoke:
"Lord Ding, please follow me."
The maids were all exceptionally beautiful and had soft, sweet voices, clearly indicating that they had been carefully selected.
Ding Yi looked up at the mansion in front of him and saw the two large characters "Liu Mansion" hanging in the center above the gate. He felt that the scene was a bit strange, but he still said something without making a sound:
"Let's go."
Upon hearing this, the two maids tacitly stepped forward and led Ding Yi into the courtyard.
The Liu family mansion was very large, a three-courtyard complex. The front courtyard not only had artificial hills and ponds, but also various exotic flowers and plants, far exceeding the level of luxury Ding Yi had ever seen before.
However, the two maids did not seem to intend to show Ding Yi around. Although their steps were light, they were not slow. Before long, Ding Yi was led to the innermost wing room of the mansion.
"Lord Ding, the master is waiting for you inside."
The two maids spoke to Ding Yi with blank expressions.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi frowned slightly.
To be honest, he would never have made this decision to come to this mansion alone if it weren't for the pills provided by the system.
But with immense wealth right in front of them, they were determined to take the gamble, no matter what.
"All in" is not just about lifespan; it also represents the courage to face death and be reborn, just like the moment we are in the high-walled red courtyard, under the flowing water and rocky hills.
However, necessary preparations should still be made.
Ding Yi quietly looked around and found that the walls of the courtyard were extremely high, more than twice the height of ordinary people's houses.
However, the stones on these walls were uneven and had grooves, so Ding Yi, with his strength at the Refining Viscera stage, could use them to climb over them, and an escape route instantly formed in Ding Yi's mind.
But one line is not enough.
Ding Yi looked around again, his gaze finally settling on the roof.
This side room is located at the back of the entire courtyard. As long as you climb onto the roof and jump backward, you will find the second escape route.
Ding Yi observed for a moment and made up his mind. Just then, the maid beside him whispered again:
"Lord Ding, the master is waiting for you inside."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi glanced at the maid, then walked forward expressionlessly and pushed open the large red-lacquered wooden door.
"Crench!"
The large wooden door slowly opened, and Ding Yi stepped inside, but did not close it, leaving only a narrow crack, while simultaneously attaching a flashbang to the bolt.
At this moment, Ding Yi held his breath and focused his attention, his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked ahead, wary of any sudden attack.
Suddenly, a scream reached Ding Yi's ears.
"Master! You've finally arrived, Master! This servant has been waiting for you for so long!!"
