Chapter Twenty-Seven: There Is Murder
Regarding Qiao Ran's words, the old man just sneered: "If you think about it, you can't do it, and it's even more troublesome." ”
"If you don't think about anything," the old man thought for a moment...... "like your fussy girl, like those fools, don't you laugh all day long?" ”
Qiao Ran shook her head: "I want to live a sober life." ”
"Then you slowly sober up!" He said and went out with the medicine bowl in hand.
Qiao Ran was silent for a while, and suddenly raised her voice and asked him, "Can this beautiful girl wake up?" ”
The old man looked up at her through the window.
Qiao Ran explained to him: "This person is very important, she may be able to save dozens of lives when she wakes up." ”
The old man snorted when he heard this: "Everyone will die horizontally and vertically, and no one can avoid it." With that, he shook his head and got back to work.
"It's good to die later, live longer, and see more of the scenery in the world." Qiao Ran said, a trace of sorrow flashed in her eyes: people who have died once still have some right to speak.
Even though her present life didn't leave her much human touch, she still began to miss that world.
The old man snorted coldly, ignored her, and continued to lower his head and tinker with his herbs.
Qiao Ran walked out and looked up: they were now on the back mountain of Qixia Mountain, and they could see the Xuanzhen Temple as long as they raised their heads slightly. I don't know what happened to them, she said to herself.
"I've already told you what I know," the viewer said, lowering his eyes, "I didn't kill Sioux City. ”
"But you're not a little suspicious." The two Jingguan Dao sitting in front of her.
"I know, you just want to take me on an errand and I have nothing to say." The viewer bowed his head and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable."
The faces of the two Beijing officials suddenly turned red: What do you mean by taking her on a business? Some words are not said to be clear, and this female crown is really not tactful enough...... No wonder Su Xun repented back then. If it weren't for the fact that the search for someone was helpless, the suspect who was a major suspect somehow disappeared out of thin air, and they would not have come here again to ask the female crown.
A question broke up unhappily, and the two Beijing officials left with cold faces.
"No one can be found." Xie Chengze walked in from outside, holding two newly posted notices in his hand, originally looking for someone from each other, for fear of attracting the attention of the other party, he didn't dare to publicize it, and now he can't find anyone for a few days and no longer covers it up, but under the wanton search of these two parties, people still let it go and disappear out of thin air, which is a little intriguing.
"Actually, it's not surprising," Xu Hexiu fiddled with a folding fan in his hand, glanced at the two new notices, and said, "Sun Gong's best thing for so many years is to hide, and it's normal to not find anyone for a while." "If it is easy to find, why would Your Majesty go out of his way to let them travel with a secret decree?
"Have you seen the trick?" The young man, who had been sitting quietly for a long time, suddenly raised his head and asked them.
Magic? Is this the time to talk about this kind of gossip? Xie Chengze and Xu Hexiu were a little surprised.
The young man only smiled and continued: "Those jugglers in Mule and Horse City like to play tricks the most, and they have searched the city many times, and instead of grabbing a person, they rub their faces and pull their beards to check if they are dressed in disguise, and if they can't find it for a long time, there is another possibility, maybe they are not in the city for a long time." ”
"It's not like I haven't looked for it outside the city! Even the neighboring Gusu and other places have already been turned over. Xu Hexiu shook his head and said, "There is no one who has found them." ”
"Sun Gong wouldn't do such a thing as a traitor, so that Miss Qiao must be good. According to those people, this Miss Qiao has a good appearance again, and she can be seen at a glance when she falls into the crowd, so if you really want to find it, these two people should be extremely easy to find. The young man thought for a moment and said, "But we still can't find it, I think we may be in the wrong place." ”
"What do you mean?" Xie Chengze was a little confused, "Is there anything else in this entire Jiangnan Mansion that we haven't turned over?" ”
"Yes." Xu Hexiu suddenly spoke up at this time, his face changed slightly, as if he had thought of something, "There is a place where no one will go to it." ”
"Where is ......" Xie Chengze frowned, and was about to ask but suddenly changed his face, "Could it be ......?"
The young man nodded and said three words: "Xuanzhen Temple." ”
Or more precisely, it should be near the Xuanzhen Temple, and it may not take more than a cup of tea to walk.
A leaf obscured her eyes, and she couldn't see Mount Tai, Qiao Ran removed the leaves that covered her eyes, and was sent to the foot of the mountain by the strange old man to collect medicine, at this time she was already a little far away from the Xuanzhen Temple, so far that a leaf could cover the entire Xuanzhen Temple.
She took the leaf in her mouth, blew a cheerful sound, grabbed a handful of herbs that seemed to be wanted by the old man and threw them into the basket behind her. Saving a person's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention not only saving but also waking up, Qiao Ran sighed: So saving people throughout the ages has never been an easy task.
She hadn't been told to run around like that. is no matter how much her father doesn't love her mother in this world, she has to suffer countless assassinations, she is also the product of a serious marriage, and the eldest lady who will hold the power of the two families in the future, no one will instruct her to run around. When I got here, although she was a young lady who was kicked out, there was such a girl as Hongdou by her side, so naturally she was never called.
This time, I met this strange old man, but I didn't expect to be an errand runner. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the mountain scenery was coated with a warm orange, Qiao Ran grabbed a handful of wildflowers on the side of the road and played with it in his hand, the herbs were picked, and he could go back.
Walking from the foot of the mountain to the flat ground halfway up the mountainside, I saw the strange old man standing in the courtyard with his head bowed as if he was in deep thought, motionless, Qiao Ran was used to this: this old man has always been like this, he can't be disturbed when he thinks about things, and sometimes he thinks about it for a long time.
She actually had a lot more things to ask him: who he was. Such a powerful healer should not be an ordinary person, and he is proficient in talisman medicine...... Could it be the legendary medicine king Sun Gong who saw the head but did not see the tail! Thinking about it like this, I laughed again: How is it possible? Where did she get such luck! She didn't know if this body was intimate, but it was true that she was not very lucky.
With a "creak", pushing open the loose wooden door, Qiao Ran walked in, pulled the basket tied to his body, and said to him, "The medicine is here, you ......"
A hand slammed into her shoulder, Qiao Ran was startled, and lowered her head to meet the old man's bloodshot eyes, and he opened his mouth, and his eyes were full of red and splashed her face.
A sticky smell of blood came to the face.
"Let's go!" Almost a word popped out of his teeth, Qiao Ran was immediately knocked out by a strong bang.
Despite the mountain weeds as a mat, Qiao Ran still gasped in pain, and a group of masked people came out of nowhere, coming violently, Qiao Ran was startled, and the voice of the old man behind him came with an angry roar.
"Let's go!"
Qiao Ran strode forward, the sound of blades clashing behind her was endless, and she stumbled forward, not daring to look back.
Let's go, let's go! Something came over beside her, she stumbled under her feet, and even the person with the basket fell to the ground, and the three willow leaf darts were inserted on the ground beside her and trembled slightly.
The masked figures in the courtyard were staggered, and the old man's figure became thinner and thinner in the staggered figures, so thin that it was almost impossible to distinguish.
What to do? After the initial panic, she gradually calmed down, got up, wanted to pass, but stopped.
She doesn't know martial arts, she can only add chaos in the past! As soon as he raised his eyes, Xuanzhen Temple stood majestically among the mountains and rocks and jungles.
"Someone! Come on! She shouted loudly and ran in the direction of Xuanzhenguan.
