To Ye Qingge's surprise, those who watched the gate did not stop the carriage they were sitting in, but let it in normally.

The carriage walked in a hurry, and after a while it arrived at the gate of the courtyard of the dean, Tang Wen jumped out of the carriage, knocked on the door, and shouted loudly.

"Lord Dean, the two maids have been brought, and I hope to open the door!"

The voice fell, and after about a cup of tea, there was a "squeak", and the closed door was slowly opened, and at the same time, a very cold voice came.

"Come in!"

Tang Wen said in a low voice: "Yes!" ”

Then he drove the carriage and walked straight in.

As soon as they entered, the door was closed tightly again, and in the darkness of the night, it was as if nothing had happened.

The carriage passed through the peach blossom forest and stopped in front of a house.

Ye Qingge lifted the curtain, glanced at the scenery outside, and asked with a smile, "Senior brother, can you come down now?" ”

The voice was low, but it happened to be heard by Tang Wen.

Tang Wen said in a low voice: "It's okay." ”

Xu heard the sound of the carriage, and the old man in the house had long wanted to push open the door and go out, but in order not to startle the snake, he could only endure it aggrievedly.

Liu Chengxu took the lead in jumping out of the carriage, and then helped Ye Qingge to get out of the carriage, in this regard, Ye Qingge felt that in this way, he inevitably seemed to be too hypocritical, and he couldn't help blushing again.

After the two got out of the carriage, the three of them walked into the house together.

As soon as I entered, I saw an old man dressed in white sitting at the table, with this candle on the table, and some fruits and pastries, and four teacups next to the teapot, which I thought had been prepared in the morning.

When the old man saw the two people behind Tang Wen, he stood up excitedly, walked straight to Ye Qingge, and looked up and down carefully.

"Apprentice, you...... These days of disappearance, I have wronged you. ”

In the voice, it is full of the care of the elders for the younger generations.

Ye Qingge smiled sweetly at the old man.

"Master, the apprentice is not wronged, if the murderer can be found, it will be even better."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingge glanced at the old man a few more deeply, and a complicated expression appeared on his face.

"Master, it's not good to be a disciple, and it's worrying you."

Needless to say, just by looking at the old man's expression, you can see that he must have not rested much these days.

The old man smiled indifferently.

"Silly apprentice, as long as you can come back, I will be very happy as a teacher. Don't worry, this time, the teacher and your brother will assist you in finding the murderer together. ”

With the support of the old man, there will be more hope for finding out the truth.

The master and apprentice exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the old man noticed Liu Chengxu, who was silent on the side, and was very surprised.

"This ...... This is Yoo Chengxu? ”

Ye Qingge also glanced at Liu Chengxu awkwardly, and then nodded.

"Yes. Because my brother said that I wanted to dress up as a maid, Brother Liu and I both changed into these clothes, in order not to startle the snake. ”

was discovered, and Liu Chengxu had no choice but to bow to the old man.

"Student Liu Chengxu, I have met the dean."

The old man just glanced at Liu Chengxu lightly, and then his gaze fell on Ye Qingge, with a smile on his face.

"Apprentice, sit down and talk, there are still your favorite foods and pastries, presumably you are tired from running around all the way, you must be hungry, you must eat more, so as to make up for the loss of your body."

In this regard, Ye Qingge let the old man pull her to the table, and looked at the things on the table, and everything was indeed her favorite taste.

"Master, you are so attentive that you even wrote down what your apprentices like to eat? It's really amazing! ”

After Ye Qingge's praise, the smile on the old man's face became more and more intense, and he said very arrogantly.

"That's nature, don't look at who the teacher is? Just remember your preferences, that's not easy? ”

When he said this, Liu Chengxu, who was watching from the side, was silent, and then, his face turned black.

Ge'er's master is really too improper.

Tang Wen looked at this scene, the grievance and depression in his heart, like the water of the Yellow River, endless.

This old man is really, and the junior sister is back, and it is indeed a happy thing for everyone.

But I, as a senior brother, have no merit and hard work, and I go out to find out the news every day, and now that it is done, the old man has never even said a good word, which is really unreasonable!

After Ye Qingge sat down, he picked up a piece of pastry and ate it with relish, and after eating a few pieces, he felt that something was wrong with the situation, and after swallowing the things in his mouth, he said to the two men behind him with some embarrassment.

"Senior brother, Brother Liu, you two should also sit down and eat some together! It's been hard work along the way. ”

When the words fell, Liu Chengxu sat down next to Ye Qingge obediently, but Tang Wen didn't seem to hear it, and there was a hint of arrogance in his expression.

The old man looked up and said emotionlessly, "Okay, come and sit down and have some food together!" ”

Tang Wen pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, and was no longer reserved, walked to the old man's side, and sat down, but his face was still not very good-looking.

The old man kept staring at Ye Qingge, looking like he wanted to say something, hesitated for a while, and finally asked the doubts in his heart.

"Ge'er, do you remember what happened before you disappeared?"

The old man's question, Ye Qingge would naturally answer very seriously.

"Well, after the award ceremony, I walked with Brother Liu, and it was Brother Liu who found out that I was being followed, but we didn't see the person's appearance clearly. Originally, I was going to catch turtles in the urn, but I didn't expect that person to use a trick to stun me and Brother Liu with a poisonous fog bomb, and when I woke up again, I found that I was in a forest, and after asking others, I learned that the place was called a mass grave. ”

The old man and Tang Wen both listened to Ye Qingge's speech very carefully, and at the same time, their brains were constantly thinking.

"What about the future? The man did not kill you, so what was their purpose? ”

Ye Qingge is not very clear about this problem, but the only explanation can only be that the person thought that they would definitely die.

"When I woke up, Brother Liu was still unconscious, and a miracle doctor opened a house, so I was able to wake up Brother Liu."

After a slight pause, Ye Qingge poured himself a cup of tea, then drank it all and continued.

"As for what their purpose is, I think it may be the death-free gold medal, and when I woke up, the death-free gold medal was lost. As for why they didn't kill them all, it may be that they thought that if they threw me and Brother Liu in the mass grave, there would definitely be no chance of survival, after all, the mass grave was surrounded by wild beasts, and the forest was very large, and the number of wild beasts should be quite large, even if they didn't die, they were afraid that they would become crippled. ”

Listening to Ye Qingge's words, the old man was terrified when he heard it.

"And how did you defeat those beasts?"

Under the curious gaze of the old man, Ye Qingge licked his somewhat dry lips and said slowly.

"I didn't defeat it, Brother Liu and I stayed in the mass grave for a long time, and we haven't seen any beasts, and I have some doubts that there are any beasts there!"

These words attracted a big roll of the old man's eyes.

"If there is a wild beast, then you are finished, and it is good that the beast did not appear, and you are lucky."

This is also true, it is indeed good luck, otherwise, it would have died a long time ago.

The old man continued to ask, "What about later?" Why didn't you tell me sooner? ”

Facing the old man's questioning, Ye Qingge was obviously a little embarrassed, she didn't dare to say that she hadn't thought of this stubble at all.

"Uh, that...... That was when we were about to go down the mountain, and I couldn't wake up again, and then it was Brother Liu who sent me to the place where he used to live to recuperate, and I was in a coma for too long, so it was a little delayed. No, I woke up and only recovered for three days, so I hurried here, and Brother Liu said that when I was in a coma, I had already reported to Master and Father that you were safe! ”

Well, it is true that he has reported peace, although the old man has some reproach in his heart, but he is more happy.

He was afraid that if he was old and couldn't even protect his apprentices, he would be too incompetent.

Fortunately, the apprentice is still there, and everything can be discussed in the long run.

Ye Qingge ate Liu Chengxu's grapes with peeled skin and seeds, and his face was full of enjoyment.

"Then Master, Brother Liu and I have become your maids, so where do we sleep at night? Also, will Brother Liu always wear a maid suit in the future? This ......"

The old man frowned slightly, and asked with some puzzlement.

"What's wrong with this? I see that your brother Liu, wearing the clothes of a maid, is also quite good-looking, at least not ugly. ”

Ye Qingge flattened her mouth speechlessly, and smiled helplessly.

How is this not ugly? This hasn't been smeared with rouge gouache, it's already a national fragrance, if you smear that rouge gouache, maybe you will fascinate a large piece of boy!

Hmph, that's confidence!

However, Brother Liu has been wearing the clothes of a maid, and using the identity of a maid is not a long-term solution!

I don't know how many times I have to be exposed to the toilet during the day! What about other things? ”

"Master, how about this? I've learned some disguise techniques, and Brother Liu shouldn't be a maid, how about being one of your guards? I promise you, my disguise will never make people recognize him. ”

Seeing Ye Qingge's determined face, the old man couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded with a smile and said.

"Okay, then do as you say. If you're going to be in the evening, just make do with the floor at the door! ”

I thought that no matter how bad the old man was, he would let himself sleep in a bed, right? I didn't expect it to be a floor? That's too much, isn't it?

Seeing Ye Qingge's shocked look on his face, the old man patiently explained.

"If I'm too nice to you two, won't the people in the shadows find something boring? Wouldn't that expose the fact that you have returned? ”

After the old man's dialing, there is really a little bit of truth, and Ye Qingge no longer has any other opinions on this.

"Apprentice, Wen'er and Liu Chengxu, how do you think this matter should be investigated, it will be simpler?"

After the old man's words fell, the three of them fell silent.

In this matter, judging from the current clues, that person must know what the reward is, and then step on the spot in advance to recognize the person, waiting for the opportunity to snatch the death-free gold medal, but why did that person take the death-free gold medal? Is it to save people?

If the person who was following was in the same group as the person who had done the Gu technique before, then the main breakthrough point would be Ye Qingmei's side, after all, she had a deal with that mysterious person.

Other than that, there's basically no clue.

The three of them all thought of this, Ye Qingge glanced at the two men, and found that they didn't mean to answer, so she replied stubbornly.

"Master, I think we should first keep an eye on Ye Qingmei's every move recently to see if she has any sneaky conversations with someone. If we're lucky, we'll be able to get something else. ”

Hearing this, the old man was very satisfied.

"Okay, this method is feasible, then your next task is to keep an eye on Ye Qingmei's whereabouts."

At this time, Liu Chengxu, who had been peeling grapes next to him, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Dean, if I remember correctly, every subject in the academy has been preparing for the test recently, and Ge'er and I are currently missing, if we don't take the test because of this, what will happen to our grades?"

After all, this thing is about whether or not you can graduate from Tanghua Academy and whether you can leave here early.

So, this is a relatively important question.

The old man glanced at Liu Chengxu lightly and said slowly.

"This problem, old man, I have already thought about it, and when the time comes, let you re-test, or directly delay the time of the test, after all, the current school is not very peaceful, and it is not suitable to organize any tests recently."

No matter what you say, that's okay, anyway, there are many things in His Majesty's palace, and there is no time to meddle in the affairs of the academy at present.

All this is clear, Ye Qingge and Liu Chengxu came all the way, they were indeed exhausted, if it was an ordinary person, they would have been lying down comfortably a long time ago, of course, it is naturally impossible for ordinary people to perform light skills.

Tang Wen stood up and bowed to the old man in a proper manner.

"Lord Dean, rest as soon as possible, Wen'er retires!"

The old man waved his hand, Tang Wen swaggered out, and then disappeared into the night.

The cakes and fruits on the table were also eaten, and the tea was drunk.

The old man yawned, and his eyes were almost open.

"Hmm...... Ge'er, you guys rest early, I'm old, I can't do it anymore, I'm going to sleep. ”

Liu Chengxu: "......"

Ye Qingge: "Master, be careful, don't bump into the table!" ”

After Liu Chengxu helped the old man to lie on the bed, the two looked at the mattress spread at the door and fell into deep thought.
