Chapter 33 Daytime Flight
Jumping down from a beam and jumping down from a windowsill on the third floor are two completely different feelings.
What's more, the height of the Jade Candle Tower is different from that of ordinary mansions, each floor here is almost as high as Feng Yan's small building with an attic, Xiao Qi only felt that the whole person was out of balance, and the north wind outside the window instantly filled her sleeves.
Three thousand years old had already jumped out of her arms and jumped on Ji Ran's shoulder.
- If it can save some of its own strength, why shouldn't it do it?
Ji Ran hugged the girl who suddenly appeared like this, like a swooping eagle descending, and when he was about to reach the ground, he suddenly got up, stepped on the eaves of the building below, and quickly moved away from everything in the Jade Candle Tower in the wind.
When Xiao Qi came back to her senses, she felt that her heart was about to jump out.
She really didn't expect this expansion - last time she jumped into the river, this time she jumped off the building, what will she jump next time?
"To ...... Where are you going? Xiao Qi asked.
"I don't know!" Ji Ran replied loudly.
Xiao Qi's gaze crossed Ji Ran's shoulder and looked in the direction of the Jade Candle Tower, and several monks seemed to have jumped down the window, but at this moment they had already stopped standing on the eaves in the distance.
That's kind of ...... Did you pass the test temporarily?
Ji Ran felt Xiao Qi firmly holding his shoulders, and the girl's arms were a little cold from the wind, sticking to the warm back of his neck.
He couldn't help but want to laugh, and the inexplicable joy was mixed with grievance and gratitude, which made him a little sour and his eyes a little hot.
Once he realized that he seemed to want to cry, Ji Ran ran faster, letting the howling wind quickly blow away the tears.
Xiao Qi couldn't open his eyes because of the wind, and his face was also a little painful from the wind, so he couldn't help but turn his head sideways to Ji Ran's side.
The north wind swept like a tidal wave towards the two young men from a distant place.
Everything in heaven and earth is small, and the two of them are like fish swimming calmly, flying lightly in the air, leaving a continuous arc trajectory.
……
This is the second time Xiao Qi has come to the official office of Dali Temple.
Still like last time, she sat alone in the empty duty room and waited, she was not in the mood to take a closer look last time, but now she glanced at it, and there were mountains of papers everywhere.
There is a table by the window, on which there is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, occasionally the wind blows in through the crack in the window, and the brush hanging in the air on the pen stand swings back and forth like a wind chime, but there is no sound.
The three thousand years old were already curled up in a ball on the cushions of the soft pillows, probably because they had eaten too much at noon, and they really couldn't open their eyes at this time.
After a while, there was a knock at the door.
"Please come in." Xiao Qi said.
Qingshi walked in with a cup of hot tea, and she still had a thick blanket on her arm, "Master Ji has a few urgent matters for him to deal with immediately, he can't leave at this time, let me come and see you." ”
Xiao Qi laughed, "What's so good, if there's nothing else, I'd better go first." ”
"Eh, you can't go!" The tea was put on the sunny day, "Our people just went out to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to call people, today's matter in the Jade Candle Tower, Master Ji and you have to leave a confession for a while." ”
"That's it......" Xiao Qi nodded, "That's right, I'm not in a hurry anyway......"
Qing Shi tilted his head and looked at Feng Qi in front of him.
She can say that she came to spy on the news with public expectations - this is the second time this girl has appeared in front of them, coupled with the rumors that Miss Feng Fuqi jumped into the river on a rainy night to save her lover, Ding Xiao and Li Sen insisted that there must be something between this girl and Ji Ran.
However, it is impossible for them to hear the truth from Ji Ran's mouth for this kind of thing, and it is rare that Feng Qi came here again, and just happened to send Qingshi over to chat and see what the situation was.
However......
How the hell are you going to say this......
Qing Shi is very experienced in how to pry open the prisoner's mouth, but on this occasion, how to let Miss Seven take the initiative to talk about things related to Ji Ran, and not let the other party feel annoying...... It's also too difficult.
Xiao Qi noticed Qingshi's gaze, "If you have something to do, don't worry about me." ”
Qing Shi stood in place with a kind smile on his face, "Is there anything Miss Seven wants to ask us?" ”
"Huh?" Xiao Qi blinked, "What? ”
"That's it...... Anything. Qing Shi replied seriously.
If this girl also likes Ji Ran, she must also be curious about his work in Dali Temple......
In this way, it can be said that there is no trace of it, and it can also spy on the clues.
"Are you sent by Ji Ran to chat with me?" Xiao Qi asked.
"Count...... Right. Qing Shi replied - although Ji Ran's original words were, "You go and see if there is anything you need from Miss Seven, and I will come in a while."
Xiao Qi tilted his head and thought for a while, "Eh...... Then I really want to ask you something......"
……
About half an hour later, Ji Ran finally came here with a few officials from Jingzhao Yin Yamen, and he led Xiao Qi and the recorder of Dali Temple to another room to record a confession.
Before going out, Xiao Qi and Qingshi said goodbye, and the two whispered for a while, and Qingshi's expression was a little complicated.
As soon as Ji Ran walked away, Li Sen and Ding Xiao came up.
"What have you been talking to her about, for so long?"
Qingshi looked at Xiao Qi's distant back and was silent for a while.
"Xiaoqing?" Li Sen raised his hand and waved it in front of Qing Shi.
Qingshi came back to her senses, and she glanced at her companion, "Want to hear?" ”
"Hmm."
"Then let me ask you a question first," said Haruhi softly, "what do you think of my skills?" ”
"Very strong." Li Sen and Ding Xiao nodded at the same time.
Li Sen quickly added, "Xiaoqing is not only agile, but also delicate, and can pay attention to many details that everyone usually can't pay attention to, and the key personality is also good—"
"Then why are there so few female priests in Dali Temple?"
Li Sen was stunned, "...... Our line of work is not suitable for women. ”
"Didn't you just say that I was agile and delicate?"
"No, you're not another girl," Li Sen blinked, "That's the average girl is delicate-"
"We were talking about this." Qing Shi interrupted Li Sen's words, "She said that she didn't see the female officer much in it last time when she went to the Ping Demon Bureau......"
"You guys were talking about this?"
"That's right." Qing Shi shrugged, "It's quite interesting to think about it." ”
Li Sen frowned slightly—what's the point?
"So, what else?" Ding Xiao asked.
"What else?"
"It's our leader—"
"Next time you can inquire about such boring things yourself," Qingshi propped up his hands and stretched, "I'm going to work-"
……
In the blink of an eye, it was evening again, Xiao Qi carefully read his itinerary today, how did he think of going out this morning, how did he bypass the Feng Mansion guards, how did he find the abnormality next door on the Jade Candle Tower, and how did he finally make a move......
Many of the details she had forgotten came to her mind one by one under the questioning of several inquirers.
When the two finished talking about what happened, Ji Ran got up and sent these officials out, he mentioned the strangeness of this matter again, and the inquirer's eyes were also burning,
"We know the severity, Lord Ji, don't worry, even if you don't go to the Jade Candle Tower today, our Lord Xing is not so easy to get around."
"Then I'll wait for your news."
"Good. I'll come back tomorrow. ”
After greeting them like this, Ji Ran stood in place and watched them go away.
Then he turned around and looked at the girl sitting at the table—Xiao Qi had been talking all afternoon, and was sitting there resting with a dry mouthful of water.
"Miss Seven," Ji Ran said softly, "I'll send you home." ”
