Chapter 32: Targeted?
Xiao Qixin held his forehead and thought for more than ten seconds, but he couldn't recall it, so he had to take out the tattered little book wrapped in cowhide in his pocket
"Yes...... A singer in his thirties who sang and danced, called ...... Qin Yun. ”
Xie Lingxu raised his eyebrows: "She is...... The people of the Sleeve Building? ”
Xiao Qixin: "Yes, it is said that this Qin Yun is not bad in Sleeve Yi Building, she is known as Yun Niang, and she can be regarded as one of the best people in that place." ”
Xie Lingxu thought that the youth of a woman in her thirties had passed away, and no matter how beautiful she looked, she couldn't resist the baptism of the years, there were countless young and beautiful girls who could sing and dance, if she only relied on singing and dancing, Qin Yun would not be able to compete with a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl at all, unless, she was doing something else.
Chu Xie turned his head and smiled maliciously: "What is it said, Lao Xiao, you don't pretend to be pretty, you don't go to the place where you go less, can you count the girl that Yun Niang introduced to you on two hands?" ”
Xie Lingxu: "So, this Qin Yun is going to introduce the girl to the guest, right?" ”
Xiao Qixin: "That's right, she is also half an old bustard, and there are many people who specifically look for her to introduce girls, and Yun Niang is very hard at the bottom of the Sleeve Yi Building." After finishing speaking, Chu Xiu counted Chu Xiu without blushing and his heart beating: "I said Lao Chu, can you be okay and don't dig into my corner, how much damage to my image in front of the little girl!" ”
Xie Lingxu thought to himself, you don't have any image to speak of.
"How did Qin Yun die?"
"Drowned."
"In the river?"
"It's not...... It is said that when a girl in Sleeve Yilou was fetching water in the morning, she saw Yun Niang's floating corpse in the well, and she was scared stupid on the spot. However, later, for fear of causing trouble, he asked Jiudumen to salvage the corpse. But the people of the Nine Governors Gate didn't pay attention to preserving it well, and Yun Niang's body is estimated to be missing now. ”
Xie Lingxu thought to himself that these Nine Governors were really a group of rice buckets, and they couldn't even protect the corpses, so what kind of case was being investigated.
"Then let's go to the Sleeve Yi Building first."
Xiao Qixin: "It's no problem for us to go, but as I said last time, this sleeve Yilou only allows men to enter." ”
"Isn't it okay to investigate the case? The Underworld Army can't enter? ”
Isn't the brand of this Evil Army so hard that it is unimpeded in the eight wildernesses, how can it be so bad that it is impossible to reach a place like Sleeve Yilou?
"The main reason is that there are many dignitaries and nobles in the Sleeve Yi Building, and it will be very troublesome to get into trouble with the people in the palace, and it is not easy for our Underworld Army to break through."
Xie Lingxu frowned: "Then what should I do?" I have to go see it! ”
"That's it, let's go to Hu Yueyi to paint your face first, and you dress up and mix in with us."
"Without further ado, let's go now!"
Hu Yueyi, as a well-known disguiser in Beishi, has passed down her skills from generation to generation, and the ancestral disguise technique is even more incisive in Hu Yueyi's hands, and she has become famous because of this, and she has become a famous generation at a young age. Although Miss Hu has peerless skills, she knows in her heart that her ability is also coveted by those who seek profit and power, if she has the slightest relationship with these people, she will become an outlaw if she is not careful, and it will be difficult to be an ordinary disguiser in this life. Therefore, after Hu Yueyi became famous, she lived in seclusion for more than half a year to cultivate her self-cultivation, and at the same time taught herself some medical skills.
Fortunately, Hu Yueyi's small restaurant is not far from the Zhishi Medical Museum, across a prosperous commercial street, and then through two alleys.
Chu Xiu and the others strode on the streets that were crowded with mountains and seas, perhaps after the violent storm last night, and because the air was particularly cool today, there were many people traveling, much more than usual.
Chu Xiu looked at the bustling streets, and couldn't help sighing: "Hey...... Lingxu, you see how comfortable these people are with the world, and when I get old in the future, I can't move my legs and feet, and I can't stay in the palace anymore, so I will come to this North Market to take root, and I can go to the vegetable market or something if I have nothing to do. ”
Xie Lingxu glanced at him: "If you can't move your legs and feet, what kind of vegetable market are you visiting?" Chu Xiu, why have you been moaning lately? ”
"Hey...... Recently, I have a feeling of seeing through the red dust......"
"Have you been to the red dust, you can see through it!"
"Lingxu, what about you?"
"Ah...... What the? ”
"Where do you plan to stay in the future? Otherwise, let's all come to Beishi to get together, and in the future, we can enjoy our old age by drinking tea in the morning and drinking wine in the evening. ”
Xie Lingxu thought to himself: ...... in the future Maybe one day you can solve the puzzle around you and go back, and there is no future here.
"Well, I'm probably not here."
King You raised his eyes lightly and looked at the person in front of him, and suddenly remembered the words written on the lantern that day.
Chu Xiu: "Then where are you going?" ”
"You can't take care of that."
"Huh...... Lingxu, you don't have a little lover somewhere else, you have to go back to find someone else to marry......"
"Chu Xiu, don't talk nonsense......"
"Yo...... Are you blushing? ”
"Which eye do you see ......?"
Before Xie Lingxu's words fell, he suddenly heard the king behind him shout, "Be careful!" ”
When he looked up, he saw a swirling porcelain vase above his head, smashing straight towards him with unstoppable force.
Xie Lingxu didn't react, he was grabbed by the arm of the king behind him and pulled back, and his feet stumbled, hitting the latter's chest hard, and the spun porcelain bottle narrowly grazed the tip of Xie Lingxu's nose, and instantly fell to the ground and splashed into scattered fragments.
Fang just hit back with some too much force, Xie Lingxu heard a muffled snort from King You, and a warm air flow went straight to the back of his neck.
It was really uncomfortable to maintain this posture, Xie Lingxu reminded him and said, "Thank you......" King You was stunned, and quickly let go of the hand holding her arm.
Chu Xiu hurriedly leaned over and asked with concern, "How is it, Lingxu, are you okay?" ”
Xie Lingxu shook his head.
"Where did this vase come from? On the eaves? Who's so careless ......"
"No......" Xie Lingxu breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down and turned over the broken remains of the porcelain vase, "This porcelain vase contains stones, it seems to be ...... Someone is trying to harm me. ”
Xie Lingxu looked up at the roof of the flat wind and calm waves, if it was just a coincidence that he was in danger in the Fengming Forest that day, and now this situation was naked for him. But why...... Do you want to do it to yourself?
"I'm thinking, the murderer hasn't killed anyone for two or three days......"
Chu Xiu: "You don't doubt that his next target is you, right?" Lingxu, don't think about it, maybe it was a bear child who had nothing to do and put this bottle on the eaves with stones, and just accidentally fell it down. ”
"I hope I've thought too much......"
Xie Lingxu pretended to be indifferent, thinking that he had somehow become a thorn in the side of several forces, but he didn't know anything about the enemy's situation.
