Chapter 12
Leng Gongzi's words just now revealed some facts, how did the county lord come to be the official position, and everyone heard some clues.
Bai Shishan looked at this parent official who changed his face faster than turning a book, and smiled lightly.
"What should you do next, you don't need me to remind you, your crime is not small."
The county magistrate was stunned for a moment, his eyes kept rolling, and he seemed to be trying to make excuses for himself.
"Do you want me to say it a second time?"
Bai Shishan's tone was not as relaxed as before, but a little dignified.
The county magistrate hurriedly bent down and clasped his fists with both hands, and said, "The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare, the lower officials will do it." ”
Ning Sisi watched the county master walk out in a hurry, his body was a little wrong, and even his pace was hurried and unsteady.
It was the first time she had seen that this "parent official" who coveted power would look like this, and she looked at Bai Shishan with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
The man in white on the second floor just watched this scene indifferently, and suddenly turned around and walked back to the room, and the fast wind didn't stay long, following behind the master.
It wasn't until the troublemakers had left that Bai Shishan turned around and looked at Ning Sisi and the shopkeeper, who were standing there looking at her in amazement, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Bai Shishan walked over to them, his eyes returned to their usual brightness and gentleness, and he was about to ask Shopkeeper Ning if there was anything hurt, however, he saw them immediately kneel down, "Thank you, Your Highness the Princess, for saving your life." ”
Bai Shishan hurriedly said, "You guys get up first." ”
She didn't need this kind of kneeling and ritual, all she wanted was that they treated her as a guest and a friend, as she had done before.
"Shopkeeper Ning, are you injured?"
"Princess ......"
Before Shopkeeper Ning finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by Bai Shishan.
"Don't call me that, I'm just a guest officer of yours now, and I don't want too many people to know my identity, you can help me keep it a secret," Bai Shishan looked at Ning Sisi, his eyes were gentle, "Besides, aren't we friends?" ”
She was very sincere, very truthful, and very surprising to everyone.
Ning Sisi's eyelashes trembled slightly, looking at her, her heart was indescribably moved.
She originally thought that those high-ranking officials and powerful people had never been unreasonable, whether it was the county lord or the prime minister's mansion or those powerful people, but she didn't expect that in her lifetime, she would meet someone like her.
Ning Sisi nodded fiercely, his eyes slightly moist.
"Miss Ning, I'm a little tired, I don't have much appetite for lunch, I just want to take a break, can you ask the guy not to bring food first?"
As Bai Shishan said, her tone was not an order, but a question.
"yes, I see."
Bai Shishan smiled and nodded, and was about to go up the stairs to sleep, maybe it was because of the long journey, but he felt that his eyelids were a little heavy.
However, in an instant, a bright red figure broke into the corner of his eye.
Bai Shishan turned her eyes to look out of the door, and the blood-red clothes made her heart tremble inexplicably.
She didn't really like red, in other words, she didn't like red, she was afraid, she was afraid of repeating the scene a year ago.
More than a year ago, Bai Xun Candle was injured by a woman in red and infected with poison, so whenever he saw that red figure, the picture presented by the crystal ball would always be reflected in his heart.
However, when Bai Shishan's gaze fixed on her face, her whole body was almost completely stunned.
That face, she couldn't be more unforgettable!
She thought it was just a simple woman dressed in red, but if you look closely, that person turned out to be the woman in red with a crystal ball!
It's not because the woman in red has an outstanding face, but because the person who sent the candle to the Yellow Springs Road, she will never forget it for a moment, even if it is just a glance, she will not admit her mistake.
Bai Shishan hurriedly walked out of the inn to find the bright red, at this time, she no longer had any sleep, and her heart began to panic.
"Miss Shishan......"
Ning Sisi, who was behind Bai Shishan, saw her suddenly run out of the inn, her expression was more nervous and flustered than that of the county master and Leng Gongzi, and she was about to ask, but Bai Shishan had already disappeared from her sight.
Bai Shishan looked around in this crowded sea of people.
Candle is also in the capital, she is very scared, and she is also worried that Candle and the woman in red will meet again.
On the night when Bai Xun Candle was poisoned and woke up, the master told her that the poison on her body was not only ferocious, but also that it would erode the five internal organs of the poisoned person little by little, and the martial arts of the poisoned person would gradually subside, and her poison would attack from time to time in the past two years, her body would be hot, her heart would gradually ache, and even her five organs would gradually be gnawed like severe pain.
That's the price for her to live for two years, and once the poison attacks, life is worse than death.
Eventually, it came to naught.
Bai Shishan walked and ran, the clear sky also darkened in an instant, one after another dark clouds gradually shrouded the sky, a discordant wind blew, and some of the things in the stalls were blown into the air.
The sound of the leaves of the trees, the whirring of the wind, the screams of the people on the street, all the young and the old, running away from the wind, are very similar to the scene a year ago.
Wei Wei covered the wind with his hands, and said wonderingly: "Where is this strange wind?" ”
Bai Xun Candle looked at the people fleeing in all directions with a calm face, listening to the sounds around him, his eyes darkened slightly.
Suddenly, as if he felt some kind of gaze, Bai Xun Candle raised his eyes slightly and met a pair of pupils.
Wei Zuo saw her staring at the front, never leaving for a moment, and also followed her gaze.
Some panicked people ran and hid in this street, and the most striking thing in this panic was that a woman dressed in red was also looking at her a few meters away.
In the midst of this panic, she was the only one standing quietly.
It's just that the man's gaze is not kind.
Wei Zuo looked at Bai Xun Candle and asked, "Your friend?" ”
Bai Xuanzhu's tone sank, "Miss Weizhuo, stay away." ”
"What?"
Bai Xunzhu turned his eyes to look at her, "You go first, I'll arrive later, let's go!" ”
"But ......"
Before they could finish their words, they saw the red figure walking towards them.
A very thin woman, but her steps are a little heavy.
At this time, the people around him also ran about the same, and those who should have gone have gone.
On a wide street, a strong wind blew, and the clothes of the three of them seemed to be carried away by the wind.
The three thousand green silk of the white candle blew behind her, but the clothes that swung with the wind did not make her body shake.
The woman in red approached step by step, and there was no strange knife on her body, but her pupils were still red.
Wei Zuo watched the man approach Bai Xun Candle unkindly, and asked, "Bai Girl, ...... she?"
Suddenly, Wei Zuo was suddenly pushed by Bai Xun Candle, and before he could react, he saw a bright sword stabbing towards the center of them just now.
In other words, it was Bai Xun Candle who saved her!
