Chapter 426: Everyone
Xiao Shulun turned his head to look at the two rooms, his brows furrowed.
The house on the west side, he didn't want to go again, thinking of the cursed Gu, the third prince only got goosebumps.
Xiao Shulun walked into the east room again.
I don't know, I missed any clues just now.
There was an altar in the east room, and the middle of the altar was empty, as if something had been taken away.
Xiao Shulun carefully checked around the house and found nothing.
Finally, he stood next to the altar.
This altar was carved out of stone, and there were no mechanisms, so Xiao Shulun carefully inspected the area around the altar.
It's all around it.
But......
Xiao Shulun's nose moved, when he came in for the first time, he was dizzy and nauseous, and he didn't pay attention to the smell, but now that he has taken the medicine of the eighth day of the first month, his brain is clear, and his nose is also flexible.
The third son, he smelled the smell.
It's very light, it's light, if it's nothing.
If it weren't for Xiao Shulun's very good nose, ordinary people would definitely ignore this smell.
"Wormwood?" Xiao Shulun sniffed hard, and the smell similar to wormwood became lighter.
Xiao Shulun sniffed hard around the altar, and then in the hollow place, the smell became clearer.
Xiao Shulun found a small leaf in the hollow crevice, a small piece the size of a fingernail, still sandwiched in the stone crevice, if you don't look carefully, you won't notice it at all.
"It's really wormwood...... the third prince pinched the wormwood out of the crack in the stone, looked up and down, and couldn't help muttering to himself, "How can there be this thing?" ”
Yes, how can there be wormwood leaves around an altar? This courtyard is cramped and cramped, next to it is the cursed Gu, and here is the altar, this altar is weird and weird, but wormwood is a very common thing!
Xiao Shulun took out a white cloth, wrapped the wormwood, and carefully put it into his cuffs.
After that, the third prince checked other places again, but found nothing.
…………
…………
If you want to say that you haven't found anything, it's Gao Jingchuan.
Xiao Shulun handed over the courtyard to the shadow guard for temporary care, and rushed to find Gao Jingchuan, he wanted to tell Gao Jingchuan about the clues he had found.
When he saw Gao Jingchuan at the county office, Xiao Shulun was stunned.
"Didn't you find anyone?" He walked over.
Gao Jingchuan looked at him: "How do you know?" ”
"Your expression told me." Xiao Shulun said naturally.
Lord Shaoqing, who has always been expressionless: "......"
"The man is gone." Gao Jingchuan said, "I've asked people to look for it, but it's unlikely that they will be found." ”
"How did this Meng Zhutou get the news?" Xiao Shulun asked.
Gao Jingchuan shook his head.
"It's okay!" Xiao Shulun comforted Gao Jingchuan and said, "On our side, the progress is very fast, and we will definitely be able to find that Meng Zhutou." ”
Gao Jingchuan asked, "Where are you?" It seems that a big clue has been discovered. ”
"Yes!" Xiao Shulun said, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look!" ”
As he spoke, he took Gao Jingchuan to the cramped small courtyard.
is guarding the courtyard is the tenth year of the shadow guard.
When Chu Shi saw Gao Jingchuan, he gave him a pill first.
"Lord Wang, please take it." The first ten paths.
Gao Jingchuan took it, and for some reason, he looked at Xiao Shulun: "This is ......"
"After taking this medicine, when you enter the house, you won't go crazy." Xiao Shulun said.
Gao Jingchuan nodded and obediently took the pill.
"Let's go." Xiao Shulun led him into the room of the cursed Gu.
As soon as Gao Jingchuan entered, he was also shocked. Xiao Shulun explained the matter of the cursed Gu to him clearly.
"Where's the room to the east?" Gao Jingchuan understood the matter of the cursed Gu and asked Xiao Shulun, "The house over there, isn't it also ......?"
"It's not." Xiao Shulun said, "The eighth day of the first month said, there is an altar over there. ”
As he spoke, he took Gao Jingchuan to the next room.
"Take a look first." Xiao Shulun pressed the wormwood in his sleeve and didn't say, he didn't want to sway Gao Jingchuan's judgment, and said, "You have always been more careful than me, you take a closer look, are there any clues." ”
Gao Jingchuan, like Xiao Shulun, carefully searched the house.
In the end, Lord Shaoqing shook his head: "It's clean." ”
That means, no clue.
"I've found a little clue here, and I don't know if it's a clue." Xiao Shulun said, taking out the white handkerchief in his sleeve.
Gao Jingchuan walked up to him.
Xiao Shulun carefully opened the white veil, revealing the wormwood inside.
"I found this in that place." Xiao Shulun pointed to the empty position in the altar and said, "I really don't understand, how can there be wormwood ...... here?"
"This is ......" Gao Jingchuan stared at the wormwood in Xiao Shulun's palm.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Shulun asked, "Did you find anything?" ”
"When I went to that Meng Zhutou's house, he had this thing in his house." Gao Jingchuan said.
"Meng Zhutou?" Xiao Shulun thought for a moment, "So, it is very likely that Meng Zhutou has been here before." ”
Gao Jingchuan said: "It's very likely. ”
"And ......," Gao Jingchuan looked at the center of the altar and said, "He probably took the contents of it." ”
"If you find him, will you be able to find what is missing on the altar?" Xiao Shulun asked.
Gao Jingchuan nodded lightly: "Very likely!" ”
…………
…………
At this time, Xiao Shulun and Gao Jingchuan had new clues.
On the eighth day of the first month, I have also found the Yuanxing Inn here.
He was going to go in to find Xiao Jianchu, but as soon as he walked inside, he saw Xiao Jianchu chatting happily with someone.
Chu Ba knows his master too well, and when he usually smiles brightest, it is often when he calculates in his heart.
He walked towards Xiao Jianchu's feet, turned in a different direction, and walked to the table next to Xiao Jianchu.
"Guest officer? What to eat? The shopkeeper asked happily.
Chu Ba casually ordered a few dishes, and then quietly listened to the conversation between Xiao Jianchu and the man.
…………
…………
The person sitting opposite Xiao Jianchu was none other than the owner of this inn.
He had a very happy conversation with Xiao Jianchu.
"In this way, Luo Jing is very interesting." The boss said, and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Jianchu, "If there is a chance, I will definitely go to Luojing to have a look." ”
Xiao Jianchu smiled "happily", meaningfully: "There will be a chance!" ”
"I hope so!" The boss raised his glass with a smile, "I'll toast you again." ”
Xiao Jianchu picked up the wine glass: "Dry." ”
The two drank all the wine in the cup, as if it was not enough to enjoy themselves, Xiao Jianchu said: "The taste of this wine is a little light, do you have any spirits here?" ”
"Brother Chu, do you like to drink spirits?" The boss looked at Gao Jingchuan, "It looks like you're not like it." ”
"Looks are deceiving." Xiao saw Chu squinting and smiling.
The boss paused, and then smiled: "Yes, yes, appearance can deceive people......"
"Let's not talk about that." Xiao saw Chu and said, "Is there any liquor?" ”
"Yes!" The boss said, "I have Mobei's burning knife here, I guarantee that it is strong enough!" ”
"Then bring it!" Xiao Jianchu said, "We hit it off at first sight, and we don't get drunk and don't return!" ”
"Good!" The boss looked weak and ordinary, but he didn't expect him to drink and have a bold personality.
He said, "There are a lot of people here! I have a private room above me, enough for us to get drunk! ”
"Good! Then go up! Xiao Jianchu stood up.
It is estimated that he stood too violently, Xiao saw Chu stumbling under his feet and almost fell.
Chu Qi hurriedly supported him.
"Childe ......" Chu Qi whispered, "You are a little drunk, this wine ......"
"I haven't had enough yet! Keep drinking! Xiao saw that Chu ignored the seventh day of the first month, and it seemed that he had to go to the private room to drink.
Chu Qi had no choice but to help Xiao Jianchu go.
When passing by the eighth day of the first month, the seventh day of the first month paused slightly.
Chu Ba pretended to drink tea, and he couldn't see anything from his expression, but Ying Wei only saw the code of communication, and he had already passed it to Chu Qi.
There's something important to report!
…………
…………
It is said that Xiao Jianchu followed the boss to the private room to drink.
They went up on the front foot, and Siwan led Zhao Qingyi into the inn on the back foot.
"How did you come up with the idea of coming here for breakfast?" Zhao Qingyi asked Siwan.
Siwan smiled: "The drunken shrimp here tastes amazing, I want to take you to taste it." ”
"Really?" Zhao Qingyi smiled and followed Siwan in.
As soon as I walked in, I saw the eighth day of junior high school.
Zhao Qingyi recognized Chu Ba, and when she saw him, she was slightly stunned, but Miss Zhao quickly concealed her emotions.
"There are quite a lot of people today." Siwan said, "Why don't we find a private room?" It is also convenient to speak. ”
"Okay." Zhao Qingyi nodded, everything was up to Siwan.
Siwan asked the shopkeeper to find a private room and took Zhao Qingyi up.
This private room is coincidental, next to Xiao Jianchu.
If you want to go to the private room that Siwan said, you have to pass by the private room on Xiao Jianchu's side first.
When Zhao Qingyi walked by, it was a coincidence that Xiao Jianchu didn't close the door here.
Miss Zhao glanced inside, and then was suddenly startled!
This! The people inside are...... Be......
Once when the Son of Heaven traveled, she had seen it from afar, and the saint was handsome, and she could be impressive with just one glance.
Therefore, Zhao Qingyi recognized Xiao Jianchu at a glance.
Oh, my God! Why is the prince here!?
Zhao Qingyi, who was still calm when he saw the eighth year of junior high school, was a little out of shape when he saw Xiao Jianchu.
"What's wrong?" Siwan followed Zhao Qingyi's gaze, and when she saw Xiao Jianchu inside, she paused slightly.
"Nothing." Zhao Qingyi came back to his senses, a little shy, and whispered, "I thought that Lord Shaoqing was a first-class beautiful man in the world, but I didn't expect ......."
Siwan also slowly came back to her senses and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that there would be a face that could compete with Lord Shaoqing." ”
"Let's go." Zhao Qingyi said, "It's rude to stare at people." ”
"Hmm." Siwan said, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Jianchu.
At this time, Xiao saw Chu coming over, his eyes met, Si Wan's face was slightly red, and then he seemed to be angry with his gaffe, and hurriedly took Zhao Qingyi away.
…………
…………
Walking to the private room between the two, Siwan slowly calmed down.
"Guest officer. Eat something?! The voice of the shopkeeper brought back Siwan's senses.
"Drunken shrimp." Siwan said, looking at Zhao Qingyi, "Do you still want to eat?" ”
"Let's have some light side dishes." Zhao Qingyi said.
"Good!" The shopkeeper made a note and went down.
At this time, Siwan had completely lost her mind just now, and after she calmed down, she thought about it.
The man in the private room next door...... Speaking of which, it seems to be somewhat similar to Gao Jingchuan......
Zhao Qingyi didn't want to think about it too much, and hurriedly said, "You asked me to come to dinner today, is there something wrong?" ”
"yes." Siwan replied, "I want to treat you to drunk shrimp." ”
Zhao Qingyi smiled, shook his head and said, "I know, it's not just eating. If there's anything to say, let's get straight to the point......"
She paused and continued: "I have already told Lord Shaoqing what you told me before, he caught the master who made tea, and asked a lot of things, so ......"
Zhao Qingyi looked at Si Wan, and the words behind him paused.
"So what?" Siwan looked at her.
"So, have you decided to be on our side?" Zhao Qingyi asked this sentence.
Siwan smiled: "If, I say yes, will Gao Jingchuan believe me?" ”
"I'll trust you." Zhao Qingyi said, "Lord Shaoqing, I don't know. ”
Siwan sighed: "You are really Shen Guiyan......"
"What?" Zhao Qingyi was stunned and asked, "What's wrong with me?" ”
"It's nothing, I just think that what I just said looks like something you would say." Siwan said.
Zhao Qingyi smiled, and for a while he couldn't grasp Siwan's thoughts, and Zhao Qingyi didn't dare to speak rashly.
"Actually, I'm telling you this just to show my heart." Siwan said, "I like Gao Jingchuan, you know? ”
"Yes."
"If you like someone, you want to be with him, you can understand that, right?"
"Understood."
Siwan smiled and said, "I've thought about it for a long time, instead of going against him and making him jealous of me and hate me, I'd better stand on his side." Let him thank me. ”
Zhao Qingyi said: "That's why you told me......"
"Yes." Siwan said, "I" can tell you everything I know, but ...... It must be Gao Jingchuan who came to tell me in person. ”
"I see." Zhao Qingyi nodded, "I'll tell Lord Shaoqing." ”
Siwan smiled.
"Guest! Your meal is coming! The shopkeeper came in happily and interrupted the conversation between the two for the time being.
"Here's the drunken shrimp you ordered! This is the light side dish you ordered......" The shopkeeper enthusiastically introduced the dishes while distributing the dishes.
"Alright, you go down first." Zhao Qingyi said, "I'll do the rest." ”
The third junior high school told her that Shen Guiyan is not used to being served, so she usually goes to the restaurant to eat and does not bother the shopkeeper to eat dishes.
Zhao Qingyi is Shen Guiyan at this time, so he naturally wants to play to the end.
She sent the shopkeeper down and made the dishes by herself.
Siwan looked at her and believed even more that the person in front of her was Shen Guiyan.
"Hey......" Siwan suddenly sighed softly.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Qingyi asked her.
"Nothing." Siwan said, "It's just a sigh that the world is impermanent." ”
