Chapter 143: The Man in the Mask

It may be because of a heavy rain last night, today's sun is unusually bright, but for the approaching late autumn season, it is somewhat unexpected, Situ Tanhua impatiently leaned on the trunk of a tree in front of the Taoist temple, and looked at the hundreds of stone stairs in front of him with blank eyes.

"Every time I have to do the aftermath, I have to do it, it's really enough for a brother."

"Young master, bear with me, it's a big deal to carry you down later." As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead for Situ Tanhua.

Situ Tanhua looked at the steep stairs, then at Qu Bu's thin body, and shook his head helplessly, "I didn't expect grandma's body to be better than mine." Speaking of which, the figure of Zhang Lihua climbing the stairs by himself just now appeared in his mind.

"Catch the thief!"

The sudden sound in the Taoist temple not only did not make Situ Tanhua feel energetic, but he became even more lost because he was troublesome.

"Bold thief, stealing things actually stole to the Taoist temple, do you know the plaque on the door of this Taoist temple, but Lord Thorn Shi personally wrote it!"

Hearing the movement, Zhang Lihua and the Taoist people of the Taoist temple all came to the courtyard.

"Crowned as a Taoist, this is..." Watching several men clamp a little beggar to the ground with sticks, Zhang Lihua was a little unbearable for a while.

"Dao Chief, this little beggar tried to steal the treasure of Zhenguan, but fortunately we found it, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

"You let go of this little brother first."

Under the order of the Taoist chief, everyone withdrew their sticks with great reluctance, and the little beggar stood up somewhat unconvinced.

"Little brother, I see that you are a talent, why do you want to do things that harm others?" Zhang Lihua asked patiently.

"What's the matter with you old woman!"

"Bold fanatic! How dare my old lady speak like this. Xin'er stood up with some displeasure.

"Xin'er, how can you be as knowledgeable as a little brother?" Zhang Lihua's anger suppressed the anger in her heart, indicating that Shang still maintained a kind and humble smile.

"Cut! I'm really good at acting! The little beggar said disapprovingly.

"This little brother, it is very rude to speak to the elders like this." The Taoist chief was a little unaccustomed to it, and reprimanded him loudly.

"An old man's family and an old woman, it's really verbose, I like to talk to people like this, you have the ability to kill me!"

"Stinky boy!" The people standing around the little beggar waved their sticks again and fought with the little beggar.

After a while, the little beggar was once again thrown to the ground by several people.

"Everyone, calm down," Situ Tan, who had been standing aside to look at the lively Situ altar paintings, stepped forward and said, "Since this little brother is so stubborn, according to the opinion of the younger generation, it is better to hand him over to the government." As he spoke, he glanced at the little grizzled beggar.

After seeing the wonderful face painted by Situ Tan, the little beggar's eyes widened in surprise.

"Situ Gongzi is right." The Taoist leader hurriedly responded, "Let's do it." ”

The rest of the Taoist temple didn't seem to be very reluctant, everyone wanted to teach this kid a good lesson with their own hands, and they dared to point the finger at the treasure of the Taoist temple, and their attitude was so arrogant, but the power of the Situ family was very clear to everyone present, even if the Taoist temple had the support of Lord Thorn Shi, how could it afford to provoke the big red man around the emperor.

"Just do as the conversation says," Zhang Lihua said to the Taoist chief with a smile, "Look at this Taoist temple, up and down, it is also very difficult, this little beggar will be taken down the mountain by us and handed over to the government, I don't know what the long will do." ”

"Of course, it's okay, trouble the old lady."

"It's a gesture."

Zhang Lihua said and looked at the little beggar with a smile, and at the same time, Situ Tanhua also looked at the little beggar with the same smile, the fear behind Zhang Lihua's smile, Xin'er was very clear, but she also inadvertently saw Situ Tanhua's smile, and suddenly began to be creepy, and looked at the little beggar with some sympathy.

According to Xiao Yujing's statement, when she was boiling medicine in the kitchen last night, she was suddenly knocked unconscious, and when she woke up, she found herself tied up in a dilapidated house outside the city.

Although Xiao Yujing came back safely, Situ Chenfeng felt very happy, but who wanted to rob Xiao Yujing? What was the purpose of her abduction? Last night, the men in black, no matter what method they used, couldn't get a reason out of their mouths.

Cheng Manfu had been in the room for four hours, and the people outside the room were starting to get a little anxious.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of illness does that little sister of yours have?" Situ Shaoqi finally asked.

Xiao Yujing shook her head, "I've never seen my junior sister become like that, in fact, I don't often stay in the Divine Doctor Valley, and I don't know much about the affairs of my junior sister, when I first met her, she had been in the Divine Doctor Valley for a year, and I only knew that my senior uncle sent her over." ”

"What's with the scar on her face?" Situ Shaoqi began to become serious.

Seeing Situ Shaoqi like this, Xiao Yujing was a little scared, and quickly took a step back, "It seems to have been there since birth." ”

Situ Shaoqi didn't speak, Gu Yu'er's face appeared in his mind, and Feng Yumo looked at Situ Shaoqi from the side, as if he thought of something.

At this time, the door opened, and the people hurried up.

"Senior sister, how is junior sister?"

"It's okay already," Cheng Manfu said and glanced at Feng Yumo, and continued to say to Xiao Yujing, "Senior sister doesn't often stay in the Divine Medicine Valley, so she may not know, this is a stubborn illness of the little junior sister since she was a child, it seems that she was poisoned when she was three years old, and the toxin has always been in the body, like this, if you don't take the antidote prepared by the senior brother for her, it will be like what you see." ”

"Poisoned? Can it be completely healed? Xiao Yujing asked with some concern.

"It will take a long time, junior sister, when Yu'er wakes up, tell her not to stay outside for too long, and go back quickly."

"Senior sister, are you leaving?"

"I still have some things to deal with, I returned to the Divine Doctor Valley a few days ago, and I heard that the senior brother said that the senior sister is here, so I was a little worried about her situation, so I rushed here, and now I have to hurry back."

"Then senior sister be careful all the way, after my senior sister wakes up, I will tell her."

Cheng Manfu nodded lightly, "Now Yu'er needs to rest, you better go back first, she may not wake up until noon tomorrow." After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Yujing and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

When Cheng Manfu walked past Situ Chenfeng and Feng Yumo, the two subconsciously glanced at her with their spare eyes.

After Situ Shaoqi gave the eviction order, Feng Yumo and Huangpu Ye left Situ Mansion with uneasy hearts, but in Ni Mansion and Huangpu Mansion, what awaited the two of them was even more uneasy news.

Tonight's night is in stark contrast to last night, through the moonlight, you can see the faces of people standing within five meters in front of you, the air still has the smell of earth emitted by last night's heavy rain, located in the suburbs of an exquisite courtyard, at this time surrounded by a cloud of dim lights, for those who are lost in the wilderness, this is undoubtedly a life-saving dawn.

"It's really worthy of being the senior brother of the 'Gentleman of the Night', and he was able to rob people under the noses of those two people." The masked man said with a smile.

"Hehe... It's over. The man in the fuchsia coat poured himself a glass of wine as he spoke, and drank it all in one gulp, "I just didn't expect to see you here." Saying that, his delicate and somewhat seductive lips raised a hint of arc.

"How's your investigation going?" The masked man's tone became a little serious.

"Feng Yumo is really difficult to deal with, and his meticulousness is far beyond my imagination."

"Hmph, that's true."

"But," the man said and looked at Gu Yu'er who was lying on the bed, "I took such a big risk to help you bring people out, you should tell me the reason, I don't think you will fall in love with this woman." ”

"She's related to Ning'er."

"Hey," the man said and shook his head helplessly, "then I won't be able to ask again, there are your secret guards all around here, so I'll take my leave first, I haven't been back to my nest for a long time," the man said, stood up, stretched and walked out.
