"Ah Heng...... Did you really let Ling Yao take over the task of the poisoner? ”

A young man sat in the tavern and asked helplessly.

"Well, this task is also convenient for her to do things."

Xiao Heng didn't raise his head, he concentrated on eating braised meat and drinking wine, and said a little vaguely.

"No matter what, the poisoner should not let Ah Yao go, if she is really poisoned, if she is the same as Sister A, how can you explain?"

The young man looked at Xiao Heng with some displeasure.

"Yes, it stands to reason that you should give way to go, but this person has something to do with what A-Yao wants to investigate, and she will know later that I didn't give her the task, and she may bury me on the ground."

Xiao Heng drank another glass of wine before raising his eyes to look at the other party.

The young man was just about to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao Heng again.

"Qin Kai, can you stop it for a while? Besides, I've prepared several antidote pills for her, and she'll be fine. ”

Xiao Heng's expression was a little more serious.

"Well, since this is already the case, you should keep an eye on it more!"

The young man, that is, Qin Kai, the Kaiyang Star Lord of the Seven Star Tower, sighed and responded.

"By the way, A-Yao is still thinking about the situation of Sister A-in Helan Mountain, I'm too busy here to get out, and you don't have any tasks recently, go and keep an eye on the situation over there and serve a snack."

Xiao Heng saw that Qin Kai seemed to have figured it out, but he ordered unceremoniously.

"Okay, I'll leave it to my sister."

Qin Kai also poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.

This short conversation in the tavern was unbeknownst to Ling Yao, because she was already on her way to Xiangcheng.

Ling Yao was not very lucky to rush this way, it was getting late, and she wanted to find an inn to rest for the night, but there was no store in the village nearby.

But to settle on the side of the road, Ling Yao didn't feel that he wanted to overwhelm the sky, so he had to continue to travel overnight.

It was more than half an hour before Ling Yao saw some dim lights, and it looked like a small village in front of her.

It's just that at this time, it was already late at night, and most of the villages were very quiet, and Ling Yao entered the village with an indistinguishable expression.

The small village was full of relatives and neighbors, and Ling Yao had no choice but to dispel the idea of staying in a guest house. Walking to the end of the village and seeing a flower god shrine, Ling Yao's heart moved, this could be a night.

The furnishings inside the flower shrine are quite clean and tidy, and it seems that the villagers must often come to worship.

Ling Yao was very satisfied with this environment, and simply cleaned up and prepared to sleep.

But before Ling Yao could squint for a while, there was a noise outside.

On the road alone, Ling Yao was naturally very alert, and opened her eyes to look out.

The people outside looked a little haggard, and it seemed that they were also passing here, and they had nowhere to stay, so they thought of coming here to rest for a night.

Ling Yao didn't get up, but just judged by her eyesight and ear power that there were a total of six people outside, a family of three, plus two maids and a maid.

When you go out with the little girl at home, you generally don't have any malice, and it should be just a small family in a hurry.

Ling Yao's tense heart relaxed, and she closed her eyes again and fell asleep.

"A-Niang, there are people here!"

The little girl pointed at Ling Yao and whispered.

"Bao, be quiet, that sister should be asleep, don't make noise."

When the child's father had just seen the horses outside, he guessed that there must have been people inside, so the woman was prepared, but she did not expect that there was a girl resting in a corner, and it seemed that she had fallen asleep, so she immediately lightened her steps.

Everyone else did the same, no one made any noise, simply cleaned up, made a bunk, and fell asleep around.

Although Ling Yao was alert, not only did this family not do anything out of the ordinary all night, but it was also quite quiet and did not disturb herself, so Ling Yao slept well.

It's just that early in the morning of the second day, Ling Yao felt that someone had come to her side, and Ling Yao opened her eyes and swept it coldly.

It turned out that the little girl of that family looked at her curiously.

Ling Yao's heart was slightly relieved, and she didn't make any moves, just let the little girl look at her.

"Big sister!"

The little girl shouted Ling Yao crisply.

Ling Yao looked at the little girl who was still childish, didn't know what to say, and paused.

The little girl probably didn't feel that Ling Yao was a somewhat cold person, and actually nested directly beside Ling Yao.

Then start squeaking and talking, like ......

"Sister, are you going to Tancheng too?"

"Why is my sister alone, is she separated from her family?"

"Sister......

Ling Yao never thought that a child would be so familiar with it, and there were so many things to say.

"Po?!"

The woman of that family finally found out that her youngest daughter had come to Ling Yao's side without knowing when.

It's still going on and on.

"Don't make a big sister."

The woman is also worried that she and her husband are not people who like to think about broken thoughts, but this daughter is the most noisy and likes to talk.

"This girl is really sorry, my Ah Bao is a little troublesome."

The woman wasn't sure what kind of character Ling Yao was for a while, so she had to quickly apologize.

"Nothing."

Ling Yao finally sat up straight at this time, and her tone was still light.

The woman looked at Ling Yao, although she was cold, but she was not bored, but she was relieved in her heart, and took the child aside and said a few fierce words.

Ling Yao simply cleaned up and walked outside the Flower God Shrine to breathe, only to see that the rest of the family was packing up their things, and some people were boiling the broth.

After looking at it twice, Ling Yao also felt a little hungry, but if she used dry food here......

Well, it's better not to have anything to do with it.

Ling Yao turned around and led the horse, ready to hurry.

"Girl, it's still early, do you want to eat with us before leaving?"

The woman stood at the door of the Flower Shrine and shouted softly.

Ling Yao paused as she walked out, "No need, hurry up, thank you for your kindness." ”

After speaking, Ling Yao turned over and got on his horse and continued to rush towards Xiangcheng.

This small village was not far from Xiangcheng, and it was almost noon when Ling Yao entered the city.

The city was lively, but Ling Yao didn't have time to look around, so she hurriedly found an inn to live in.

Since yesterday, Ling Yao hadn't eaten anything, she had bitten two mouthfuls of dry food indiscriminately, and she wasn't very hungry, and she was a little hungry at this time.

After a simple tidying up, Ling Yao went downstairs to order.

It's just that even though she is so hungry, Ling Yao is still a picky eater, and after looking at the food brand twice, she is not very interested.

After scanning the dish brand again, Ling Yao noticed that there was beef soup, and Ling Yao was reminded of the broth that the family had boiled in the morning.

"A bowl of beef broth, two steamed cakes, and two side dishes."

Ling Yao looked at the little second brother and said.

When she ate the beef soup, Ling Yao always felt that the taste was a little worse, but it was not bad.

"Huh? Big sister, you're there too. ”

Just as Ling Yao finished her meal, a child's voice came from the door of the inn.
