Chapter 224: Death Required

Outside the city, at the inn on the official road, there is a sign erected next to the gate, which reads "Today's full".

This sign has been erected for a few days, and people with a discerning eye can understand at a glance that this inn has been taken down.

At this time, the proprietor of the inn had a gloomy face, glanced at the old man who had just entered the door, and then looked through the account book by himself.

The old man of the crop looked angry, walked up to him, reached out to grab the account book, but did not grab it, and said angrily: "The belongings you left to you by Lao Tzu are about to be lost, you can see for yourself, there is not even a shadow of a person in this inn." ”

The proprietor continued to look at the account book, and his eyelids did not lift: "The innermost room on the second floor." ”

The old man went upstairs with a snort, walked a few steps, felt angry again, and came back to pick up the cigarette pouch and smack it hard on the owner's buttocks.

"Stinky boy, make trouble for Lao Tzu all day long!"

In the innermost room on the second floor, the old man was startled by the screams of a woman coming from inside before he entered the door.

"Slut, I'm going to kill you, kill you!"

"You're a bitch, old bitch!"

The old man frowned and looked at the two guards guarding the door: "There is a fight inside, and you don't care?" Aren't you afraid of having three long and two short? ”

The two guards shrugged their shoulders and said, "Old man, you can go in and take a look, it's not that we're lazy." ”

The old man glared at them, and pushed the door in with a cigarette pouch and rod.

When he entered the door, the old man knew that the two boys at the door were not talking nonsense, and there were two women lying side by side in the room, only a pillow in between, and they were cursing each other with the most vicious words, but their bodies were motionless.

"I heard you're mother and daughter? Biological? The old man looked at them curiously and said, "Yes, I heard that none of you are good people, alas, this must be your own birth." ”

"Who are you? What are you here to do? The young woman shouted, her face distorted and distorted.

"I am an old fairy, an old fairy who can treat you." The old man said with a smile.

"Old immortals?" The young woman sneered, "Just you? Do you know what disease we are? ”

"You're poisoned, ghosts, aren't you?" As he spoke, the old man took out a flat box from his bosom, which opened to reveal a row of slender silver needles.

Half an hour later, the old man walked down the stairs humming a little tune, bumping into peace and joy.

"How's it going, old man?" Ping An Joy asked.

"It's no problem to live another month." The old man said that this poison could not be solved, and he was too lazy to solve it, the kid said, as long as they lived a few more days.

The old man looked around, but he didn't see the owner of the account book, and he twisted his eyebrows and asked, "What about people?" ”

Ping An and Joy lowered their voices and said, "Miss Hua is almost here, and the fourth prince is hiding." ”

"Hide? What is he hiding? Why is it becoming more and more unproductive, and even a female doll is afraid? The old man of the crop is Yue Li, at this time he knocked on the cigarette bag and pot and raised his voice, but he didn't call Shen Xiao out.

"Hey, who's hiding?" A voice like a silver bell came, it was not Shen Xiao, it was a female doll.

Yue Li saw that there was a screen next to him, and hurriedly hid behind the screen, his old arms and legs were not very neat, and he accidentally bumped into a person.

There was another person behind the screen, the one who hid in before him.

Yue Li saw this person's appearance clearly, and was about to speak, when Shen Xiao covered his mouth.

Yue Li glared angrily, but could only see Shen Xiao's side face. From his cheeks to his ears, there was a blood mark that had scabbed, but with Yue Li's experience, he could still see that this blood mark was drawn from the bottom up.

The perpetrator should be a small man, at least shorter than Shen Xiao's.

A girl's pleasant voice came from outside: "Xiangzhu mother and daughter are okay?" ”

"Doctor Yue has shown them, and there is no problem in living for another month." Peace and joy said.

"Find two rooms and separate them." The girl said.

Ping An Xile agreed, but he didn't forget to peek at it, and when he saw Miss Hua turn around to leave, the two hurriedly asked, "Miss, our fourth son will be back in a while." ”

Hua Jingyao felt that these two little guys had a lot to say, and she said, "I'm not looking for him." ”

Out of the inn, Hua Jingyao asked Shi Jia, "Is there anyone?" ”

Shi Jia nodded, not to mention someone, their carriage had just come out of the mansion, and someone followed behind.

"Compared to the few in Sanhe, the ones who came to watch today are much more professional, and the small ones have just paid attention to them, and they are all practitioners." Shi Jia said in a low voice.

Hua Jingyao turned around and got into the carriage.

In the carriage sat a little girl who looked exactly like her.

Xiao Ai took out the prepared clothes, waited for Hua Jingyao to change, and the carriage turned a corner and stopped in front of a restaurant.

The curtain opened, and two little maids wearing pink armor got out of the carriage, and one of them said to the carriage: "You have to wait for the cook to finish frying before you can be free, we are waiting here, you send the girl back to the house first, and come to pick us up later." ”

The handlebar agreed, and the carriage walked in the direction of the outside of the city, and the two little girls jumped into the restaurant.

About half an hour later, two young men in green clothes and small hats came out of the restaurant, carrying food boxes in their hands, like small servants of a large family.

It was almost evening, and the number of people on the official road gradually decreased, and the two little guys walked on the empty official road with food boxes, and the loess was dusty, and soon they disappeared.

In the back garden of the Zhenlong Pavilion, the young man was dressed in a soft robe, leaning on the green bamboo bed, slender and pale, and weak.

"Childe, I've found a place, it's at the Baicai Inn outside the city." The person who came was through the screen, and there was a slight panting in his voice.

"Are you sure?" The boy asked.

"Sure, there are three groups of us, one followed Shen Xiao's two entourages, one followed Yue Li, and the other followed Miss Huada, and all three of them went to the Baicai Inn one after another, and the inn has been full for several days, obviously requisitioned by the Yamen." The person who came said.

The young man bowed slightly and said, "Are you sure that's Yue Li?" ”

"That's right, Yue Li often goes out alone to buy tobacco leaves in Zhangjiayuanzi, we have followed him a few times, and we will not admit our mistakes." The person who came said.

The young man snorted, waved his hand, and said, "Stand down." ”

Yue has left, which is enough to prove that the Li family is still alive and seriously injured.

However, in other words, since Yue has left, then Li's life may be saved.

The boy looked down at the jade handle in his hand, which had been raised for many years, and it was moist and delicate.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth, it was really ridiculous, in order to kill a person who should have died a long time ago, he had to kill more people to cover up, shouldn't that person die? He should have died a long time ago, and from the moment he attacked his own flesh and blood, he should have been torn to pieces!
