Chapter 90: Returning to Beijing is calculated

Gu Xiaodong and Nie Yang rushed to Lingzhou all the way. They didn't care about resting, and went directly to the Shangqing Palace.

Daoist Guo Yu heard that someone was coming to the Tanji Pavilion, so he personally came out to greet him.

Before everyone could sit down, Gu Xiaodong asked, "Why did you go to Beijing to hand over the complaint to Luo Feng?" ”

Hearing this, Daoist Guo Yu sat down helplessly and said, "Elder Guan Ju has returned to the Shangqing Palace. He was one of the three elders of the Shangqing Palace. My generation is soft-spoken, but it is really ...... Hi! I don't know what happened between him and Luo Feng? ”

"Then please ask Daoist Guo to take us to see Guan Ju!" Gu Xiaodong pinched his waist and shouted.

"Are you sure you want to see him? He's a master of poison!" Guo Yu waved his hand and persuaded.

"Everything must be a 'reason' word! I don't believe he's going to bully the small! Gu Xiaodong's words were sonorous and powerful, and Nie Yang had to admire him.

"Good! You two stay first! I'll tell you to go! Daoist Guo Yu instructed someone to prepare a good guest room for Gu Xiaodong and the others.

After Gu Xiaodong and Nie Yang walked out of the living room, Nie Yang said, "Don't forget that we are going to bring witnesses back on this trip." ”

"Do it! I'm going to find that old man's theory! Gu Xiaodong didn't listen to persuasion at all. Nie Yang couldn't resist him, so he could only let him.

Gu Xiaodong and Nie Yang stayed in a comfortable room. The two bathed and changed their clothes, and then ate the delicious meal sent by Guo Yudao. A good night's sleep, nothing else.

Early in the morning of the second day, Nie Yang went to visit Li Bing. Gu Xiaodong stayed in the guest room and continued to wait for Xin'er.

In the afternoon, as soon as Gu Xiaodong was leaning on the couch and squinting, Daoist Guo Yu'er came to take him to see Guan Ju, the elder of the medicine.

Gu Xiaodong followed Tong'er to the back mountain, and saw patches of medicinal herbs, but there was no shadow of Guan Ju.

"Great Elder Herb!" Tong Er called out in a hurry.

Gu Xiaodong saw that Tong'er had been shouting for a long time and had not moved, so he shouted at the top of his voice, "Guan Ju! You come out! ”

His voice worked, and a voice came from the herb bushes, "I'm here!" ”

Gu Xiaodong walked in search of the sound, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties lying there sleeping. His straw hat rested on his chest.

"You're Guan Ju?" Gu Xiaodong blinked and asked. In his imagination, Guan Ju should be a white-bearded old man!

"It's like a fake!" Guan Ju sat up.

"Why did you sue me Brother Luo?" Gu Xiaodong sat cross-legged opposite Guan Ju and asked.

"He worships the charm poison as a teacher in the poison cave, and he also uses all kinds of poison to harm me! Shouldn't I sue him? Guan Ju asked Gu Xiaodong rhetorically.

"Impossible! We had already discussed digging through the boulder together and escaping, how could he worship the charm and poison as a teacher? Gu Xiaodong squinted his eyes and looked at Guan Ju. What he wanted to figure out was why he hadn't been poisoned.

"I have experienced it in the poison cave and heard it with my own ears, how can it be fake?" Guan Ju looked at the hairy boy in front of him and thought, "Isn't he afraid that I will poison him?" ”

"You can't be trusted!" Gu Xiaodong shook his head and said.

No one in the Shangqing Palace dared to question Guan Ju, and he couldn't help but feel angry when he heard Gu Xiaodong's words.

"How are you going to believe?"

"Unless you two confront each other!" Gu Xiaodong did not budge at all.

"Good! If you let him come here, I'll have to ask! Guan Ju patted the ground.

"He was falsely accused by you and sent to prison, how did he come? Do you dare to go to the capital? "Gu Xiaodong will Guan Ju Yiju.

"What don't you dare! Walk! Guan Ju is also a quick temper, but it meets Gu Xiaodong's appetite. The two of them came to the guest room where Gu Xiaodong lived one after another.

Nie Yang had already said that Li Bing would go to the capital to testify. Li Bing saw Guan Ju and hurriedly saluted. Gu Xiaodong and his entourage went down the mountain to look for cats that day.

Gu Xiaodong and the others came to Fenzhou and soon inquired about the location of the cat's house.

When the old man of the Jiang family saw that so many people were looking for cats, he thought that his son had caused some serious trouble.

Gu Xiaodong explained his intentions, and Old Man Jiang put his mind at ease and asked someone to look for the cat.

It was late at night when the cat got home. Everyone else fell asleep, only Gu Xiaodong sat at the door of his house and waited.

"Xiaodong?" The cat saw Gu Xiaodong at the door, and his eyes showed a happy look.

Gu Xiaodong explained his intention to the cat. The cat immediately agreed. They decided to leave early tomorrow morning and return to Beijing.

Mao'er's father, Old Man Jiang, allocated horses to Gu Xiaodong and others. Only then did Gu Xiaodong know how rich the Mao'er family was.

"Hey! Your father is so rich, why does he let you walk the rivers and lakes? Gu Xiaodong asked the cat right away.

"Maybe my dad is used to me!" The cat grinned.

"It's good to have a rich dad!" Gu Xiaodong pinched the horse's belly, and the horse ran quickly.

Gu Xiaodong and others rode into Yangzhou City. They found an inn to settle down, intending to rest for a while and continue their journey tomorrow.

Mao'er invited everyone to the restaurant opposite for a big meal, and Gu Xiaodong drank so much that he talked about the interesting things in the capital.

"We don't seem to order this dish!" Nie Yang looked at the last Yangzhou dish that came up.

"Don't worry! Eat more, everybody! "Cats don't care about money at all.

Gu Xiaodong picked up the chopsticks to pick up the new dishes, but was suppressed by Guan Ju's chopsticks. Gu Xiaodong's wrist was touched, and the dish had already been caught by him.

"Kill immediately if you eat it!" Guan Ju squinted at Gu Xiaodong.

Gu Xiaodong's hand didn't move. He rolled his eyes and said, "You're not joking, are you! ”

"I'm never joking!" Guan Ju took out a silver needle from his bun and inserted it into the dish, and when he took it out, the silver needle had turned black.

As soon as Gu Xiaodong's hand was released, his chopsticks fell on the plate.

Nie Yang had already gone out to find the guy who served the food, but where was his shadow? The restaurant owner said they didn't cook the dish at all.

Only then did Gu Xiaodong and others know that someone deliberately poisoned everyone and wanted to kill everyone. They have no intention of eating or drinking anymore. After the cat settled the bill, everyone returned to the inn.

Li Bing said that he would keep vigil tonight, and the rest of the people would rest. Gu Xiaodong said, "It's hard work! Then he went back to his room and went to sleep.

When he got up early in the morning, Gu Xiaodong stepped out of the door and saw the surprised eyes of Nie Yang and the cat.

He followed their gaze, Li Bing leaned against the pillar of the room and did not wake up, and beside him and on the stairs lay six people in night clothes and armed with fast knives.

"Get out of the way!" A government official led someone to push Nie Yang and the cat away to check.

"Boss! They're all dead! One of the officials shouted.

"This one is still alive?" Another official pointed at Li Bing and took two steps back.

"Brother Li! Wake up? Gu Xiaodong squatted down and called.

"Give!" Guan Ju took a bowl of water and handed it to Gu Xiaodong.

Gu Xiaodong glanced at Guan Ju, then took a sip and sprayed it on Li Bing's face. Li Bing woke up suddenly!

"Take him away!" The head of the official pointed at Li Bingdao.

"What's wrong?" Li Bing looked blankly at the officials who came over to arrest him.

Gu Xiaodong pointed to the six corpses on the ground, Li Bing glanced back at Guan Ju, and then followed the servants.

"Cats! Let's take a look! Gu Xiaodong and Mao'er followed the officials who carried the corpse and escorted Li Bing to the county office.

Li Bing said that he did not know what happened that night, so he was temporarily detained. The cat also suddenly received the news that his father was seriously ill and rushed back.

Gu Xiaodong and Nie Yang made a plan, and decided that Nie Yang would return to Beijing to try to enter the palace to explain the situation, and fish Li Bing out of the Yangzhou Mansion prison first.

Gu Xiaodong asked Guan Ju to stay in Li Bing's cell to avoid murder and killing, and he went to chase the cat.
