Chapter 150 Speculation
The man grabbed the reins and told the horse to stop, then dismounted and stretched out his hand. The woman slowly put her hand on the man's hand, and the man exerted force to hold the woman down.
Xiao Er at the door of the restaurant had already seen such two people, no way, the man was handsome, the woman wore a veil, but her temperament was very eye-catching.
The two of them rode a white horse together, and the man surrounded the woman, his eyes full of tenderness and protection. And it's not good to be gentle when you hugged the woman down just now. Let's ask, how can such two people not attract attention.
Xiao Er immediately walked up and showed a decent smile, "Guest officer, eat." ”
The man looked at Xiao Er and nodded, and then threw a piece of silver to Xiao Er. Xiao Er nodded, asked the people next to him to pull down the horse and feed it well, and then led the two people in.
Xiao Er didn't ask whether the two people were upstairs or downstairs, and generally the little two in the big restaurants were trained and knowledgeable, so they took the two people directly to the second floor.
You may be seated. Xiao Er took the two of them to a private room by the window, just enough to see the street from the window.
The man took out a handkerchief and wiped the stool before letting the woman sit down. Then the man sat next to him.
"Guest officer, what do you want to eat?" asked Xiao Er.
"Two or three specialties." The man said.
"Okay." Xiao Er smiled and grinned, it seems that the two of them are dressed so well, and they are really rich masters, so they went down to prepare. Xiao Er closed the door very intimately when he left.
The woman took off the veil, revealing a face that fell into the city, turned her head to look out the window, and said in a relaxed mood: "This city is indeed different. Everywhere there is a thriving scene. It's no wonder that Nian'er insisted that we stay here for a few days. ”
"I'm tired of walking all the way." Jian Yuheng handed the freshly poured tea to Jian Yuxue and asked gently.
That's right, these two people are Jian Yuheng and Jian Yuxue. The two of them originally planned to play around, but then received news from Shen Nian, so they walked for a day first, one to have fun, and the other to walk slowly.
"Ah Heng, I'm fine. You're too careful with me. Jian Yuxue pouted and said. Thinking of Jian Yuheng's action of wiping the chair just now, Jian Yuxue was helpless, she was really not that weak now.
After hearing this, Jian Yuheng nodded Jian Yuxue's nose and said, "There is no maid to take care of your daily life along the way." I'm afraid that I won't be able to take care of you, and you still dislike me for taking care of too much. ”
Jian Yuxue lightly nununed her nose, put her head on Jian Yuheng's neck, and smiled: "Ah Heng, you are already very good." But I'm really healthy now. You really don't have to. ”
Jian Yuheng actually knew it, but he still always recalled that time in his mind, he was obviously protecting Jian Yuxue, but Jian Yuxue was still tricked by someone, so he was afraid of Jian Yuxue now holding it in his hand, and he was afraid of melting it in his mouth.
Jian Yuxue was helpless, buried her face in Jian Yuheng's neck and smiled sullenly, alas, Ah Heng is really.
"What are you laughing at" Jian Yuheng was tickled by Jian Yuxue's laughter, so she changed the topic and said.
"It's okay. I found out that my father was not there when I was a child, but it was Ah Heng who raised me. Jian Yuxue said.
Jian Yuheng thought about it. I remember that I was only five or six years old at that time, but because Jian Shan was not at home, Jian Yuheng had to change Jian Yuxue's diaper or something at that time, at that time, Jian Yuheng felt that this was her sister, so she naturally had to be loved by thousands of people, and she had always kept Jian Yuxue by her side since she was a child, and gave Jian Yuxue the best everything. In this way, he really raised Jian Yuxue.
Jian Yuheng chuckled, and in Jian Yuxue's ear, said in a unique voice: "I'm so good." I raised my daughter-in-law by myself. ”
Jian Yuxue's face turned red as soon as she heard this, really, she knew that she couldn't stand Ah Heng talking like this the most, and she actually talked about love. Jian Yuheng naturally saw Jian Yuxue's reaction, laughed, hugged Jian Yuxue, rubbed her head, silly girl. The eyes are dark, you have to find your father quickly, and if you can't find it, you can get married first.
Somewhere, Jian Shan sneezed.
"You're sick," an old man looked at Jian Shan with a frown. I saw that the old man's beard and hair were all white, but his expression was radiant, especially those eyes, which were shining and shining, and his body was straight.
Jian Shan rubbed his nose, "No." I guess someone is talking about me. ”
"It's been so long, you should go back." The old man said.
"No, I have to get the 'Fairy Grass'. My girl is not in good health, I have to take it back to her. Jian Shan shook his head and said.
"Hmm. Indeed, the fairy grass is indeed about to ripen. You've been here for more than three years. For your little girl, what a loving father. The old man said with emotion.
Jian Shan shook his head, "Actually, that little girl is not my child." I brought it back to fulfill my best friend's last wish, and to fulfill my son's wish. ”
"Your son" the old man frowned, he didn't understand.
"That's right. My son has been very cold since he was a child, and I don't know why this is happening. So I brought back a little girl and let my son raise him and become a daughter-in-law in the future. Jian Shan said hehe, always feeling that his decision was very wise.
The corners of the old man's mouth twitched, he had never seen a father who was looking for a daughter-in-law for his son so early.
Jian Shan ignored what the old man was thinking and continued, "It's almost over. I'm about to go home. Jian Shan closed his eyes, pillowed his arms behind his head, and slowly relaxed his breathing.
But the old man looked up at the stars in the sky, there were stars hanging in the dark sky, touching his beard, for so many years, it was always like this, but recently there were a lot more stars, the old man smiled slowly, and he didn't know what happened to his juniors.
"It's coming soon." The old man nodded and said. So I continued to sit with my heart facing the sky and slowly closed my eyes.
Carriage.
Gao Lingyu looked at the sky outside, "Sister Fairy, the weather is so good today, there are no clouds." ”
Shen Nian also looked at the sky outside, only to see that the sky was very blue, with a few white clouds floating lazily in the air. "It's very good, indeed." The weather is good, and even the mood is much better.
"It is estimated that Xue'er and Yuheng have also arrived in Hecheng now." Shen Nian counted the days and said.
"Hmm. The two of them are a horse, and fast. Mu Bai nodded and said.
"Nian'er, do you have any thoughts about the ghost temple this time?" Chu Yan said with a chess piece.
Gao Lingyan sat opposite and looked at the chessboard, thought about it, and then landed.
After Shen Nian and Mu Bai finished playing chess, they didn't expect Mu Bai to lose by half a child. So Mu Bai asked Chu Yan to help him avenge him. But as he played, Shen Nian found that he was not suitable for playing against Chu Yan, because Chu Yan's chess style was very sophistry, he had played too much with Mu Bai recently, and his brain thinking was somewhat fixed, and Shen Nian was also tired, so he didn't want to play, and he would probably lose if he continued to play. So Shen Nian directly asked Gao Lingyan and Chu Yan to go down. The chess style of both of them seems to be a maze, killing machines everywhere and trapping everywhere. And when two people play against each other, they also find that they are real opponents, so they don't know how many games they play. Mu Bai and Shen Nian watched from the sidelines, and they were also very enjoyable.
Shen Nian flipped through the booklet in his hand and said, "Actually, I suspected that this Jiuqu Mountain was a maze before, and this has now been proven to be correct." But some are weird. ”
"What's strange," Mu Bai asked.
Shen Nian looked at Mu Bai and said, "Do you remember the fruit that Xiao Ion brought down from Jiuqu Mountain last time?"
"Yes." Mu Bai said. Bai Li heard that he had also seen it, and then said, "I remember that the master said that those have the effect of making people hallucinate."
Shen Nian nodded, "Xiao Ion is right. ”
"What's wrong with that," Mu Bai asked. Jiuqu Mountain itself is a maze, and it is normal for the fruits on it to make people hallucinate.
Shen Nian looked at Mu Bai and said, "Jiuqu Mountain itself is a maze, there are fruits like that everywhere, which can make people lost, so it does look dangerous."
Mu Bai nodded and looked at Shen Nian.
"But," Shen Nian continued, "Setting up Jiuqu Mountain and arranging fruits are all for deterrence, right?"
Mu Bai nodded again.
"But the problem is, those fruits are not deadly." Shen Nian said
"Not fatal" Chu Yan stopped at the hand where he was about to play chess, looked up at Shen Nian, and asked rhetorically.
"Yes, even if you really eat those fruits, you will recover even if you don't take the antidote. It doesn't really hurt people. It's a big deal, it's scary, but it's not going to be very serious. ”
Everyone did feel that something was wrong in their hearts, since those fruits actually had a general effect, wouldn't it really only serve as a deterrent, but it was only a deterrent, and it was more of a scare.
"So what Nian'er means" Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian.
"I don't think it's too dangerous in fact. The danger of Jiuqu Mountain should be only in the middle, the closer to the ghost temple. And the periphery is actually not dangerous. Shen Nian said his guess.
"But what about the word from the ghost temple." Bai Li asked.
"Come to think of it, all we have been finding is 'supposedly'." Shen Nian said.
"It means that someone is deliberately spreading the danger of the ghost temple," Mu Bai said.
Shen Nian nodded. "I do, too."
"In that case, it should be spread to protect the ghost temple." Chu Yan said again.
Gao Lingyan looked at the place where Luozi fell, pondered, and said at the same time: "Those who can be arranged to protect the ghost temple should not be far from the ghost temple." And that time, we found out that the Qingcheng faction was actually on Jiuqu Mountain at the beginning, but it was moved. ”
"Hmm." Shen Nian nodded, "And when I asked Zhizhou Ah Liang the reason, they said they didn't know." But I think the current head Qingchengzi should know. And Qingchengzi has not returned for many years, but he came back at this time, which also makes me suspicious. ”
"So little witch, your guess is that the Qingcheng faction is asked to protect the ghost temple." Mu Bai concluded.
"Hmm. And the state doesn't know about these things. So if this is true, it is possible that only the head of the family knows about it. Shen Nian said.
Gao Lingyan's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he reasoned out these in this way, which is worthy of Nian'er.
"It seems that this Qingcheng faction is not simple." Mu Bai touched his chin, his eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
