CHAPTER XX

As for why Chu Jing and Deng Si'er's adoptive father and brother's death have nothing to do with it, and why he thinks that Chu Jing and the group of cruel killers are not all the way, Zuo Idiot has some considerations in his heart.

Not only because the timing of Chu Jing's appearance is slightly lagging behind every time, whether it is when the seventeen corpses are found by Deng Si'er, or when Deng Si'er's adoptive father and brother are killed, Chu Jing's appearance is obviously not going according to plan.

What's more, since they met Chu Jing, although Chu Jing's speech was full of loopholes, as if it was not within his expectations, he did not have a trace of panic, he seemed very calm and calm, and seemed not to care about being exposed by Zuo Idiot.

In this way, Chu Jing is not an enemy, at least not yet.

However, Chu Jing's purpose can only be the treasure map on Deng Si'er's body.

However, the treasure map is not on Deng Si'er, so where is it?

Zuo Idiot shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and raised his eyes to look at Chu Jing and Deng Si'er in the inn stable not far away.

Yesterday, it was decided to go to Chongyang Academy to investigate the case first, and early this morning, the three of them were ready to leave.

The thing was prepared before, but suddenly one more person was added, which made Zuo Idiot a little unexpected.

Chu Jing even had to go with them, although according to the current situation, Chu Jing's origin is unknown, but with Chu Jing here, it must be easier to investigate the case.

After all, since Chu Jing can know what happened in Bai'an Village fifteen years ago, know Deng Si'er's identity, and know so many things they don't know, then he must also have some understanding of the mastermind behind the entire case, at least, he should have his own judgment.

Deng Si'er didn't have as many thoughts as Zuo Idiot, as soon as he heard that Chu Jing was also going to accompany him, he was awkward for a night, and he kept chattering with Zuo Idiot for a long time.

Helplessly, although Zuo Idiot and Deng Si'er are not in the same bed, they still live in the same room, and they can't listen if they don't want to.

Finally listened patiently to Deng Si'er's complaints, and Zuo's sleepiness disappeared by half, and he didn't fall asleep slowly until the second half of the night, and his spirit was not very good when he got up in the morning.

As early as when Chu Jing arrived at the inn, he came on horseback. At this time, in the stable, Deng Si'er looked at Chu Jing's jujube red high-headed horse, and was very greedy.

"Is this your horse? It's so beautiful. What's your name? ”

Chu Jing smiled slightly when he heard Deng Si'er's words, patted the horse's neck casually, and said:

"This horse's name is Hongying, although it is not a god horse, but it is spiritual, and its foot strength is good, and it can indeed be regarded as a good horse."

Deng Si'er looked at other people's horses, and then looked at his donkey, and he immediately appeared.

On that day, Zuo Idiot was going to buy a horse for Deng Si'er, but Deng Si'er read his donkey and said that it was given to him by Uncle Li, and he was reluctant to sell it.

But now, Zuo Idiot rides a horse by himself, Chu Jing also rides a horse, and only Deng Si'er rides a donkey, no matter how you look at it, it's a little awkward.

Chu Jing saw Deng Si'er holding his donkey, so he kept staring at Deng Si'er curiously. The eyes are crooked, and there is a clear smile.

Deng Si'er was awkward all night yesterday, and when he saw Chu Jing this morning, he thought that he was his own father after all, and he was embarrassed to call him by his name like Zuo Idiot, and he didn't know what to call for a while.

But seeing Chu Jing looking at him with a smile, it seemed that there was really a moment, which made Deng Si'er feel warm, and the resistance in his heart was reduced a little, and he was finally able to speak well.

Zuo Idiot also came over to lead his horse, and the three of them left the inn and embarked on the road to Chongyang Academy.

Because Deng Si'er's donkey was running slowly, Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing had to slow down to match Deng Si'er's pace, and the team of three people was very conspicuous on the official road, and it was indescribably funny, which made passers-by stop and watch frequently.

Although Chu Jing was dressed as a Jianghu person, his face was majestic, and his eyes were also bright; Not to mention the left idiot, he is dressed in a black official uniform, the god is cold, and his handsome appearance is extraordinary at first glance.

Only Deng Si'er, although he has changed some clothes, he still looks like an ordinary person, thin and small and riding a donkey, except for Deng Si'er's face is delicate, the expression and movement of the whole person are like a small person in the market.

The three of them, in the eyes of outsiders, are a big man, a handsome man, plus, a servant.

Chongyang Academy is the most famous and influential academy in the entire Xining Dynasty, and it has cultivated countless handsome figures, even today's saints, who have lived in the academy for half a month, learning and asking for advice.

The emperor was like this, and other wealthy dignitaries also followed suit, sending their children and grandchildren to study in the academy, so that the fame of Chongyang Academy gradually rose, and it became the most unsurpassed in the entire Xining Dynasty.

Along the way, Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing both ate three meals a day, and they ate very regularly, and they never saw them eat more.

But Deng Si'er is different, along the way, his mouth basically didn't stop, eating melon seeds, peeling peanuts, is he eating two pastries with different flavors, seeing that there is not much left of the food snacks he bought before departure, Deng Si'er is not happy now.

"Lord Zuo, I said, how long will it take to go? If you don't have a store in the village or behind it, you won't be sleeping in the wilderness again, right? ”

Deng Si'er looked up at the sky that was getting west, frowned and said, his tone obviously unhappy.

Zuo Idiot just turned his head and glanced at Deng Si'er, but he didn't pay attention to him, and Chu Jing on the side also ignored him, and he didn't even bother to look up.

Along the way, whenever they missed their accommodation, they were sleeping in the wild, Deng Si'er complained like this every time, and the two of them were already surprised.

Chu Jing saw a small river in front of him, so he pointed there with a horsewhip and said:

"I think it's good here, let's pitch a tent here tonight, right?"

The left idiot nodded in agreement, then jumped off the horse and went to the river to let the horse drink water and graze.

The same is true for Chu Jing.

Deng Si'er saw that the two of them would ignore him, so he angrily went to the next tree, and the donkey didn't care, so he let it stand there.

This donkey has been getting along with Deng Si'er for a long time, and he must have gotten a little bit of Deng Si'er's temperament, so he gnawed on the turf on the ground with a very leisurely expression.

Deng Si'er was even more angry at this time, and when he saw a small pebble, he hit the donkey.

No, the donkey turned his head away and ducked, still grazing there.

"A stupid donkey!" Deng Si'er scolded and didn't care.

Zuo Idiot walked over and just heard Deng Si'er's sentence, he was stunned for a moment, and then his brows furrowed again, thinking that Deng Si'er was talking about him.

Deng Si'er was looking up at the little birds in the sky, when suddenly a shadow shrouded him, which frightened Deng Si'er to sit up straight.

"Oh, Lord Zuo, can't you make a noise when you come over? Scared the hell out of me. ”

It turned out to be Zuo Idiot, strange, why is Zuo Idiot's face dark and gloomy? You didn't provoke him, did you?

Deng Si'er saw that Zuo Idiot looked at him but didn't speak, he couldn't help but feel empty, and hurriedly stood up and walked towards his donkey.

"Did I really mess with him?" Deng Si'er muttered to himself while pulling his stupid donkey towards the river.

Chu Jing also happened to come over from the river at this time, saw Deng Si'er and said:

"The grass in front is very good, you can lead the donkey over, let's get it here."

Deng Si'er thanked him, and walked around Chu Jing.

Chu Jing walked up to Zuo Idiot, and when he saw Zuo Idiot's gloomy face, he felt funny in his heart, Deng Si'er did it again?

The two of them were preparing to set up a tent with fire and water, when they suddenly heard Deng Si'er's panicked shout:

"Ahh

Immediately, a group of startled birds in the woods flew out, Chu Jing and Zuo Idiot were startled, glanced at each other, and immediately ran towards Deng Si'er
