Chapter 240: Resisting Arrest
The little white bird flew from the side of the bed to her quilt, waiting for orders.
"How did you offend the Tianlan Courtyard?" she had wanted to ask about this for a long time, but she had been groggy for the past two days. Now that Quan Shifang is on the side, he just listened to it together.
As soon as the little male duck's throat opened, Quan Shifang was startled, but he didn't expect that this was still a young monster.
"A month ago, when I was heading south, I passed by the Tianlan Courtyard in Yingzhou, and I happened to know that there was a large jade in this Immortal Sect. It glanced at Ning Xiaoxian with its mung bean-sized eyes, "You know, our favorite thing to eat is jade paste." If there is no jade paste, Lingyu is still so-so, and it can be improvised. "One of the innate instincts of the Chongming Bird is to gnaw on the spirit jade to nourish the demonic power.
Ning Xiaoxian's face suddenly darkened: "Did you really run to gnaw on other people's jade?" It turned out that it was really her side who was at fault!
This stinky boy can really cause trouble, she finally understands Changtian's feelings when he sees her in trouble.
"Hey, listen to me!" Qizai's hair stood up, "I was tired from flying, and I needed to eat something to make up for it, so I walked in......"
Did it sneak in?" she glanced at it with disdain. Raise one that can fly, and fortunately be lucky enough to pick up a snitch.
"When I touched the jade, I stretched out my mouth to peck it, but I didn't know that the place where the jade was put was empty! I searched around there for a long time, but I couldn't find where the big jade was. Then someone heard the commotion, and I flew quickly. ”
She and Kwon looked at each other.
Ning Xiaoxian frowned and said, "You mean, Yubi wasn't there in the first place. Someone has already taken the lead?"
Qizai said nonchalantly: "Probably." I'm curious, how did the Tianlan Courtyard find out that I had entered?"
Quan Shifang said: "If this is the case, you are really in trouble." Originally, there was a large mountain protection array. The Shadow Jade Bi is its array, and now it is gone, and at that time you have been arrested again, and the Tianlan Courtyard will definitely be counted on your head. ”
He coughed lightly: "Many immortal sects have causal regression mirrors, which can see the personnel changes within the territory of the sect. Maybe you're in the mirror. ”
Causal Mirror? This sounds like an otherworldly version of a surveillance camera, or an environmentally friendly one.
Therefore, if you are not educated, you must have common sense! entered other people's sects to be thieves, and he didn't know that his every move was watched by others.
"That's not right. Ning Xiaoxian stroked his chin, this action was learned from Changtian. "If the jade bi is gone, why is there only Qizai's figure in the causal regression mirror, and there is no trace of the real thief?"
Qi Zai met her suspicious eyes, and immediately said angrily: "Master, I dare to do it! How can you not admit it?"
Hear here. Chang Tian intercepted: "What Qizai said is true. I have asked it for the past two days, and if there is any inaccuracy in it, I will not spare it. ”
Since Changtian has already tried it first, then Qizai's words are not lying.
"I believe in my family. So she said categorically to Quan Shifang, "There must be an inside story about this matter." ”
Quan Shifang saw the firmness in her eyes, so he no longer bothered about the truth of Qizai's words. Since she believes so, there must be some support.
"What are you going to do about this?" the bird had followed her. She has to clean up the trouble it causes.
"One word!" she said as he listened intently. "Hide!" can't your aunt and grandmother still hide if you can't provoke it?
Quan Shifang was slightly stunned, raised one side of his long eyebrows, and looked handsome and stylish: "Hide?"
"Uh-huh!" she said bluntly, "do you want to tell me to turn myself in?"
He scratched his head, a little embarrassed. For a moment just now, he really wanted her to go to Tianlan Courtyard to make it clear, of course, he would follow, and he wouldn't let her have an accident.
Ning Xiaoxian sighed and said: "The causal retrospective mirror in the Tianlan Courtyard only shines on Qizai's figure. Presumably, the real thief made a move on this mirror and made Qizai carry the sin on the top cylinder. But we have no other evidence, and even if we are full of mouths, we can't tell the story of this public case. Rather than that, it's better to stay away. ”
"Senior Brother Quan. She said with a straight face, "My time for this trip to the west is urgent, if the Tianlan Courtyard detains me and Qizai for more than ten or twenty years, then what will I do in the future?"
His lips moved, but he didn't speak. What Miss Ning said is reasonable.
"It's a fact that Qizai went to steal jade. Even if it didn't steal, this act was still stealing, so how could the Tianlan Courtyard have a break with it? Maybe it should be caught and domesticated...... Domesticate the spirit beast of the mountain. She thought of the unicorn beast, was this holy beast also caught by the Cloud Temple back then?" Hehe, most of the people in Tianlan Courtyard will think that Qizai was under my command to steal the jade. My Lord has sinned more than it is!"
She took a deep breath: "Senior Brother Quan, I know that you are kind-hearted, and you can't bear to bear this grievance. But I am powerless to prove it now, and I would rather run away with this charge on my back than sit in the cell of Tianlan Courtyard!"
Her eyes were sparkling and sincere. Quan Shifang glanced at it, and said gently: "I believe in you." What you said, I just thought about it. ”
"So, you're not going to send me to Tianlan Courtyard, are you?" she said with a deliberately bitter face.
He couldn't help but laugh: "I won't." Even though...... Nor will it. He changed his words halfway, but Changtian speculated that what he wanted to say was that even if Qizai really ate the jade, he would not send Ning Xiaoxian to Tianlan Courtyard.
"Hmm. Ning Xiaoxian also understood what he meant, and said softly, "Senior Brother Quan, thank you." She was very touched in her heart, Quan Shifang is a fair and rigorous person, and he is willing to break the consistent principles for her.
Quan Shifang smiled and said, "Thank you for what I did, do you think I am really an old man who eats the ancients?" After saying that, he didn't know what he remembered, and actually stared at her deeply.
This glance made her feel eager. Speaking from the heart, Quan Shifang is gentle and calm like a deep pool, as the so-called goodness is like water, and he has the pleasure and ease of getting along with the spring breeze, but the long sky is like a noble and cold snow-capped mountain, the majesty is too heavy, the closer you get, the more you feel that it is cold to the bone. Although she had recently felt as if the snowy mountain was still wrapped in lava......
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little worried in her heart. She is not the heroine of a third-rate romance script, and she is ignorant of men's overtures. The affection in Quan Shifang's eyes can be seen even by a fool. If you haven't met Changtian, then Quan Shifang is really a good object who can't find too many faults. But what now?
The two chatted for a while, and she learned that after Quan Shifang collected the treasures this time, she would go to Guangcheng Palace with the master of Chaoyun Sect to watch the ceremony. Guangcheng Palace is also a number of famous sects in the world, with more than 100,000 disciples, in the seven thousand years of the establishment of the faction, a total of 17 people before and after the successful tribulation and ascension, the number of people is jaw-dropping.
Ten days later, the succession ceremony of the head of the faction will be. At that time, the sect master of the Demon Sect of the Immortal Sect in the world will come to the door to congratulate nine times out of ten.
Quan Shifang's eyes shone brightly: "Miss Ning, the opportunity is rare, do you want to go together?"
She froze. The world is full of demons and immortals, it sounds very powerful and grand, if she just goes to watch the ceremony, she is born in the spirit of gossip, she is very interested in the bottom of her heart.
"Go ahead. It's good to gain some knowledge, your Dao heart needs to be tempered. Chang Tian knew what she was thinking, and opened his mouth to encourage.
I really want to hug this understanding guy and kiss him hard.
However, "Wait a minute, the head of Chaoyun Sect will also go when the time comes?"
Quan Shifang nodded: "The master is dealing with the important affairs in the door, and he will arrive at Guangcheng Palace in seven days at most." ”
Ning Xiaoxian pursed his lips when he heard this. She knew very little about the head of Chaoyun Sect, but this person was able to send Hu Huo'er to kill her for the sake of her beloved disciple's future, which shows that she treats her disciples very well, and her heart is also extremely cold.
Quan Shifang saw that her face was unhappy, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed: "The master is a very good person, last time I was just worried that my cultivation and Dao heart would be affected, and I will not be like that in the future." He didn't dare to arrange the master's no, and he didn't want to make Ning Xiaoxian angry, so he was a little embarrassed for a while.
She didn't smile: "Don't worry, I have a lot of adults, so I don't care about him." "I have made up my mind in my heart, when watching the ceremony, stay away from the head of Chaoyun Sect, presumably he holds his identity and will not kill himself in front of everyone.
That evening, she found a reason to take the power of the ten parties and brought Tu Duan out of the god and demon prison. Because Changtian made up his mind, he would never let Quan Shifang be alone with her on the road.
As a result, when Quan Shifang came back from outside, he was really startled -- there was a big monster coming from the bamboo house! Fortunately, although she was unwell, her sharp teeth were still there, and she introduced this holy beast friend who was "an old friend and wanted to go to Guangcheng Palace together" in three or two sentences.
In these years, it is not uncommon for monks to make friends with monsters, and the Guangcheng Palace ceremony is a rare event in the world, so Quan Shifang did not think about it deeply. Of course, more importantly, although the appearance of the painted humanoid is only about twenty years old, Ning Xiaoxian's eyes are bright and open, and he obviously has no meaning in that regard.
After two days of recuperation, she was almost recovered. Quan Shifang didn't know that she was practicing the magic power of the demon clan, so he couldn't stop talking about her recovery speed.
Guangcheng Palace was not far from where she was, and at the speed of Qizai, it was enough to walk in the northwest direction for two days. However, there are many people traveling with them now, and they are riding the jade boat magic weapon of Quan Shifang, so it will be two days slower. Thinking of the peasant girl's face full of grievances in the face of Quan Shifang before leaving, Ning Xiaoxian couldn't help but look at Quan Handsome and laughed, laughing so much that his ears were red.
The only problem now is that there is a moat between them and Guangcheng Palace.
The night marsh is 9,700 li long and 300 li wide. Although it is called a swamp, it is a large river that flows quietly. Quan Shifang said its other alias, and Ning Xiaoxian let out a long "oh", indicating that he understood. (To be continued......)
