Chapter 137: Journey Again

"Xi'er, let me ask you, when you made breakfast this morning, except for Su Tong, there were still people in the kitchen." Although she asked, Jian Ning knew very well that they were using a small kitchen, how could someone else come.

"Well, no, Steward Zhang came to visit later, but he just said a few words, and then went back with the porridge I had prepared in advance." Xi'er shook her head and said.

"Su Tong, do you have anything to say?" Jian Ning stared straight at Su Tongdao. She believed that Xi'er would not harm her, so the only suspicious thing was this Su Tong.

"What does Miss's words mean, Su Tong doesn't understand." Su Tong still had that puzzled, overwhelmed expression.

"Okay, then I'll sue you. Just this morning, we were drugged in the porridge we were drinking, and our sense of taste failed. And the person who was preparing porridge in the kitchen at that time, except for Xi'er, is you, what do you think you should say? Or, what should you confess? ”

"Miss, do you suspect it?" Su Tong had a hurt and aggrieved expression on his face, and immediately retorted, "But I'm just like you, aren't I?" Why do you suspect that it is me? ”

"It's not a doubt, it's a certainty!" Jian Ning was also very straightforward and explained to Su Tong straightforwardly.

"Does Miss have any evidence? Why does it have to be me? Su Tong didn't expect Jian Ning to have a showdown with himself so simply, and he was suddenly a little overwhelmed.

"Because Xi'er won't harm me, then it's just you. Although you are like us, your sense of taste is out of order, but who can guarantee that this is not another ploy of yours, in order to clear your suspicions. Jian Ning said mercilessly.

"Miss, am I so stupid? Don't I know how much you trust Xi'er? If you start with breakfast. Isn't it obvious that you are suspicious of me? Why should I do this? Su Tong saw that Jian Ning had said his original plan. Again, retorted.

"No matter how you justify it. I won't trust you again this time. I'll just ask you, where is the antidote? Jian Ning no longer paid attention to Su Tong's questioning. Although there was no evidence, Jian Ning trusted her own judgment.

Besides, the most important thing now is not to find evidence to prove that this Su Tong is the one who drugged it, but to find out the antidote. Otherwise, the loss of taste is a big problem.

"I said, I didn't do it, since it's not, how can I get an antidote." Su Tong finished speaking. He glanced to the side with disdain.

"Since you don't want to hand it over, then don't blame me for being rude." Jian Ning said and said directly to Ruan Zijin, "Ah Lu, catch her." ”

"Hmph, it's not that easy to catch me." After speaking, Su Tong walked out of the house in a flash, flew to the wall of the courtyard, and said to Jian Ning who came out, "Jian Ning, I will come back one day." ”

After saying that, he flew away. Ruan Zijin just wanted to go out to chase. But he was stopped by Jian Ning.

"Ning'er, why don't you let me chase it. I'll definitely catch up. Ruan Zijin asked with a puzzled expression.

"I'm afraid there will be fraud! If she still has helpers, what if you go with you and fall into an ambush? Jian Ning frowned and looked at the place where Su Tong disappeared.

"Ning'er, what about now, our sense of taste" Liu Leshan stepped forward and asked worriedly. Today's hurdle has finally passed without danger, but they are cooks, and they can't be without a sense of taste.

"Senior brother, you go and invite the most famous doctor in Jingding Prefecture to take a look first." For now, I can only look at the doctor first.

And Xi'er is still stunned, there is no way to digest what she just heard, Miss, have they lost their sense of taste? How is this possible!

"Miss, what do you mean by what you just said? Have you really lost your sense of taste? Xi'er looked at Jian Ning in disbelief and asked. After asking, her eyes were full of hope, how much she hoped that the young lady would sue her, this qiē was not true, she heard it wrong, or understood it wrongly.

But things are often so cruel, Jian Ning looked at Xi'er, and finally nodded helplessly. I can't hide this matter, and I shouldn't hide it from Xi'er.

"How can this be, is it because of the porridge made by Xi'er in the morning? Did Xi'er hurt Miss? Xi'er looked self-blaming and guilty.

"No, Xi'er, it's not your fault. Your porridge is delicious, it's just ruined by some villains! Jian Ning comforted Xi'er.

After a while, Liu Leshan came in with a doctor.

The taste of a chef is an extremely important thing for a chef, in order to prevent some people from making a big fuss about this, thus affecting their participation in the God of Food Competition.

Jian Ning just asked the doctor to check Ruan Zijin's condition. Anyway, all of them are the same medicine, and everyone is the same.

"Doctor, how's it going? But do you know what the cause is, can it be cured? Jian Ning stepped forward and asked.

"There is no problem with this young lady's tongue coating and taste buds, and the old man really can't see what is causing the taste failure. Miss, please be smart! The doctor shook his head helplessly, and walked out directly. I didn't even take a penny of the consultation fee.

"Ning'er" Ruan Zijin glanced at Jian Ning very uneasily.

"Forget it, now it seems that I can only go to Kyoto and seek medical treatment at the same time, but I hope I can be cured when I arrive in Kyoto." Jian Ning had no choice but to say lightly.

Now she really regretted why she didn't learn a little more medicine, poisons and other things, so that she wouldn't be helpless now.

Early in the morning of the second day, Jian Ning and his entourage said goodbye to Steward Zhang and headed in the direction of Kyoto.

Since it was still early, Jian Ning had not seen the scenery of Yuan Chu, and they still had to visit famous doctors, so it could be said that they were traveling along the way.

But now that there is no Feng Yang and Su Tong, Jian Ning always feels that something is missing. Although Su Tong betrayed her in the end, she had long been accustomed to the situation of too many people.

And Jian Ning seems to be slowly adapting to the carriage after this period of time, and now even if she drives the carriage a little faster, she will not be uncomfortable anymore.

"Ning'er, from now on, we are going all the way north. It's almost November, so be careful to wear extra clothes so you don't catch a cold. Liu Leshan reminded while driving outside the carriage.

"Senior brother should also pay more attention." Jian Ning replied with a smile. The strange warmth in my heart, how long has it been since I experienced this feeling of family. It doesn't seem like it's a bad thing to cross over, at least once again it makes it feel like I'm cared for, and I'm not alone anymore.

"Miss, where are we going next?" Xi'er was also looking out through the car window. This is the first time Jian Ning has seen the scenery of Yuan Chu, and naturally it is also the first time for Xi'er.

"Well, I'll see." Jian Ning said and took out a map and looked at it carefully.

"Now we are still within the scope of Jingding Prefecture, out of Jingding Prefecture, there is a mountain three hundred miles to the northwest, called" Jian Ning's voice said lightly.

But before he could identify the name of the mountain on the map, Ruan Zijin, who was walking next to the carriage, suddenly spit out a faint sentence: "Tianhua Mountain." ”

"Yes, Tianhua Mountain." Jian Ning also nodded and said. Suddenly, I noticed that it was Ruan Zijin's voice. Turning his head to look at Ruan Zijin, he could clearly see Ruan Zijin's slightly sad face from the car window, as well as the sadness that was unconsciously revealed in the words just now.

"Zijin, I never asked you, where is your home, can you sue me now?" Jian Ning leaned against the car window and looked at Ruan Zijin with a sincere expression.

Jian Ning knew that Ruan Zijin rarely exuded this kind of sad atmosphere, although she had hatred, hatred, and hurt in her heart, but she had always controlled it very well, and she had an optimistic attitude. Unless she encounters something or a place that reminds her of something.

"Tianhua Mountain, that's my home." Ruan Zijin looked in the direction of Tianhua Mountain, pulled out a smile, and said proudly to Jian Ning, "A very beautiful place." ”

Jian Ning was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that the place in front of her was where Ruan Zijin grew up, she originally just thought that she and her senior brother had been there before! It turned out to be their home.

"Zijin, is there still your family on Tianhua Mountain now?" Although Jian Ning asked like this, she guessed a little, if she really had a family, how could Ruan Zijin never mention it.

Sure enough, Ruan Zijin shook his head and said to Jian Ning: "Senior brother and I are both abandoned babies picked up by the master. Master was originally living in seclusion on Tianhua Mountain, and apart from the three of us, there was no one else living on this mountain. ”

"Although there are a few villagers living under Tianhua Mountain, we live on the top of Tianhua Mountain, the cliff is steep, and we can't go up without light work, so no villagers will come. And the master has arranged a mechanism and formation on the top of the cliff, and ordinary people can't get in. Ruan Zijin said lightly.

"In this way, Zijin's master is still a master." Jian Ning pondered and said, "Zijin, your senior brother had an accident, you didn't go back to Tianhua Mountain, and you didn't go to your master, could it be that something happened to your master?" ”

"Master, Master has been missing for almost a year. Later, my brother was really worried, so he began to go down the mountain to find out the whereabouts of the master, while I stayed on the mountain to wait for news. Later, the senior brother found out that the master was very likely to have been killed by Ai Gaoyi's people. I didn't believe it, so I followed down the mountain to find my brother. ”

"We once grabbed a guard beside Ai Gaoyi and forced him to find out that the master was indeed arrested by Ai Gaoyi, and the guard also gave me a piece of jade pendant, which the master carried with him and never left him" When he said this, Ruan Zijin's eyes flashed with hatred, and he could hardly restrain himself.
