CHAPTER XXIII

The three of them took the rescued Du Qingyan to the nearest town to Tuzhou.

After Chu Jing arranged to escort Du Qingyan, the three of them settled in an inn.

After dinner, before going to bed.

"It seems that this Chongyang Academy is also a place of right and wrong."

The three of them sat at a table, staring at each other with big eyes, and Deng Si'er sighed as they watched.

"Could it be a little too coincidental?" Zuo Idiot asked with a frown.

"How?"

Although Chu Jing was asking, he himself had such feelings, which made him uneasy and wanted to see what Zuo Du had to say.

"Didn't you notice? The treasure map that was supposed to be in the box suddenly disappeared, but it was replaced by this blue potion, so we had to go to Chongyang Academy, and we just happened to save Du Qingyan, who was studying at Chongyang Academy. ”

When Zuo Idiot said this, he stopped to look at Chu Jing and Deng Si'er, but only Chu Jing was listening carefully to what he said and analyzing it, on the other hand, Deng Si'er looked like a hanger, and Zuo Idiot was not sure if Deng Si'er heard what he said clearly?

"Lord Zuo, what are you doing looking at me?" Deng Si'er was plucking his ears with his hands, and in a blink of an eye, he met Zuo's dissatisfied eyes, but he didn't care at all.

Sure enough, the wise and martial Lord Zuo and the ghostly Deng Xiaoren are the nemesis.

It's just that Deng Si'er can restrain Zuo Si'er, but Zuo Idiot doesn't have the emotional intelligence to restrain Deng Si'er, alas

"What you say makes a lot of sense, and I've always had a vague feeling like something is guiding us."

After Chu Jing listened to Zuo's words, he determined his inner thoughts.

How dangerous would it be if someone deliberately walked in front of them?

"Why do you want to do so much? When you get to Chongyang Academy, don't you know everything? Anyway, I can't think of anything useful right now, so I might as well go to sleep. ”

Deng Si'er stood up as she spoke, and was about to go to bed and lie down.

"You were tired from your vigil yesterday, so rest early, I'll just watch here."

Seeing this, Chu Jing turned his head and said to Zuo Idiot.

Zuo Idiot nodded, glanced at Deng Si'er, opened the door and walked out, and returned to his own guest room.

Deng Si'er is the most important party in the whole matter, and Deng Si'er doesn't know martial arts, although he himself is smart and clever, but Chu Jing and Zuo Idiot can't rest assured that Deng Si'er will spend the night alone.

When Chu Jing didn't appear, Deng Si'er and Zuo Idiot had always lived in the same room.

So, Chu Jing and Zuo Idiot discussed it, and the two of them took turns to come, and they could both have a good rest.

"Uncle Jing, what did you do before?"

Deng Si'er saw that Zuo Idiot had finally left, turned over and sat up again, glared at Chu Jing and asked.

A few days ago, he stayed in the suburbs, even if Zuo Idiot slept, he stayed by his side, and there were some words, Deng Si'er wanted to ask Chu Jing alone, and now he finally had a chance.

Chu Jing turned his head and looked at Deng Si'er with a smile when he heard this, it turned out that Deng Si'er was going to sleep so early, and he was waiting for him here.

"Jianghu people, what else can you do, go to the rivers and lakes." Chu Jing said with a smile.

"Look at how old you are, what about your daughter-in-law? You're out there every day, and she doesn't mess with you? Deng Si'er asked again.

"Daughter-in-law? Where do I have any daughters-in-law? What, I look very old? Chu Jing continued with a smile.

Deng Si'er said in his heart, you just pretend!

"How do you know what happened fifteen years ago? Do you know me? Deng Si'er continued to ask.

"Well, it's very simple, I was also one of those guards, you were very young at the time, and the situation was really dangerous, I escaped with your serious injuries, and I couldn't continue to take care of you, so I put you at your adoptive father's door."

Chu Jing thought to himself, this idiot has been asked many times, why is Deng Si'er still not giving up?

Deng Si'er's eyes rolled, and he continued to ask:

"What if my dad hadn't picked me up that night? If it had been the next morning, I would have died. ”

"I knocked on the door and saw your father come out and carry you in, so I left." Chu Jing lay on the bed with one arm behind his head and replied.

"My blood will merge with your finger bones!"

Deng Si'er shouted suddenly, see if you say it or not.

Chu Jing paused at this time, only to see Chu Jing lay down while spreading out the futon, and said lightly:

"How do you know that the phalanx is mine?"

"You"

Deng Si'er looked at Chu Jing, who was already lying down, opened his mouth but finally swallowed his words back.

Are you really not my dad?

However, Deng Si'er was not disturbed by such thoughts, and he could almost determine in his heart that Chu Jing was his father.

Why else did he know everything? What's more, the palm of the severed finger is irrefutable evidence!

If it really isn't under the sky, how can there be such a coincidence?

However, if Chu Jing is his father, why, until now, he doesn't recognize him as a son?

Deng Si'er couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she was very uncomfortable and a little out of breath.

Deng Si'er pulled the quilt and wrapped himself in, his eyes were dark, and he wanted to shed tears without fighting, but Deng Si'er endured it and was very aggrieved.

That's right, if the father doesn't recognize his son, will there be anything more aggrieved in the world than here?

"Alas"

Chu Jing's internal strength was deep, and he could vaguely hear the sound in Deng Si'er's quilt, and the sigh was almost inaudible.

After getting along for so many days, Deng Si'er's character, Chu Jing thought it was very interesting, and he liked him very much, but there were some things that Deng Si'er didn't understand, he couldn't say it, he really pitied this kind-hearted child.

And Zuo Idiot, without the initial vigilance against him, although he has not completely let go, but Chu Jing looks at Zuo Idiot, and unconsciously has the meaning of treating his son and nephew, Chu Jing's original purpose is still ongoing, but his heart is inevitably shaken.

Zuo Idiot hasn't rested yet, sitting at the table and drinking tea.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the window, like a lap on the window paper.

Zuo's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and walked over quickly to open the window.

There was a "flutter", and it turned out that a pigeon took the opportunity to fly in and stop on the table.

Zuo Idiot walked over and took the note from the pigeon's leg, and sat down at the table to read it.

The pigeon seemed to recognize Zuo Idiot, tilted its little head to look at him, a pair of dripping eyes turned around, and finally, seeing that Zuo Idiot ignored it, he flapped his wings and flew out of the window.

Zuo Idiot looked at the words on the note, his face looked a little complicated, and he felt a little regretful as expected.

Since Chu Jing followed him and Deng Si'er on the road together, Zuo Idiot sent a letter to his father, An Guohou, asking him to ask about the king of Yue back then.

An Guohou has met Chu Jing, the king of Yue, and on this note, there is Chu Jing's information, which is very comprehensive.

Zuo Idiot looked at the last line of small words on the note, and was already able to confirm that Chu Jing next to him was not Chu Jing, the king of Yue, and of course, it would not be Deng Si'er's father.

Let's hide it from Deng Si'er first, Zuo Idiot thought.

Zuo Idiot stood up and walked to the window, looking at the bright moonlight, as if muttering:

"Chu Jing, the king of Yue, is dead."

A gust of wind blew a thin cloud, and under the thin cloud, there was a shadow.

The left idiot didn't see it, in the shadows, it was a person.
