Chapter 082: Lord Luo of White Camel City
"Ahh Kill! ”
The few other customers in the restaurant rushed out of the restaurant screaming, and some of them fainted in fright.
"Scorpion, you...... Are you alright? Oh! I understand! When you left for a while, you already noticed that there was something wrong with the shopkeeper, right? Na Xichen are they ......"
Ah Xiyan also said in surprise when she saw clearly that it was the scorpion armor that killed the shopkeeper and those shopkeepers.
I quickly thought of the reason.
Just thinking that his own brother and other soldiers were still on the ground, he pointed at Ah Xichen expectantly and asked.
Obviously, he also felt that since Scorpion Armor had already seen the shopkeeper's plan and had left for a while, he must have done something in secret, and he would not let Ah Xichen and his soldiers really be poisoned.
"Don't worry, Lord Valley. The shopkeeper's Kakusan was replaced by me with a normal*, and I slept for an hour and was fine. The reason why I didn't directly stop the shopkeeper from poisoning him before was to let him relax his vigilance, and after thinking that he had succeeded, he took the initiative to tell his purpose and the origin of the bracelet. Because when I left a while ago, I eavesdropped on their conversation and learned that they were killers sent by the second prince of the previous dynasty to lurk for many years, intending to poison us all. However, the specific purpose is not mentioned, and each of them has fangs in their mouths, and if they are captured alive, they will bite the fangs and kill themselves. He will keep it a secret until he dies. So I had no choice but to do what I planned, and I didn't startle the snake. After hearing him say the name of the bracelet just now, combined with the fact that they were people sent by the second prince of the previous dynasty, I quickly understood everything. Therefore, there is no need for them to stay behind those who do such hurtful things. Considering that your brother is here, and you know about this plan, you may not be able to bear to let them be stunned. In case the shopkeeper finds out, he will lose the opportunity to know about the Luanfeng gold silk ring, so I concealed it. Please also ask for forgiveness from the valley owner. ”
Scorpion Armor nodded, explaining with a complicated expression.
Speaking of the back, there is also a hint of apology.
"I'm relieved that they're okay. Thanks to you for seeing through the shopkeeper's plan in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. You're also in a hurry, how can I blame you! Let Xichen and them sleep for an hour. When the time comes, we can also go to see the unicorn snake girl with peace of mind. lest Xi Chen secretly follow us to the White Camel Mountain Canyon on his own initiative, and harm them instead. ”
A Xiyan said with a sigh of relief.
The implication is that there is no intention to blame the scorpion armor.
"Thank you Gu Ju for your forgiveness. I heard Dou Cheng tell you at the gate of the palace before, he has already greeted the major government post stations that must be passed to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons in advance, so use your position as the chief imperial physician to ask the government to help us settle your brother and them, right? I guess the government is coming soon. ”
Scorpion Armor also replied with a much softened expression.
"Stomp, stomp!"
As soon as Scorpion Jia's words fell, many footsteps were heard at the door of the restaurant, and it was obvious that the officers and soldiers had arrived.
"Someone! Completely surround the restaurant, and never let one of the people inside escape! Take it all down to this official! ”
A hoarse man's voice came in unmistakable.
"Yes! Lord Luo! ”
A crowd replied in unison.
Then, Ah Xiyan saw dozens of soldiers with spears rushing in, quickly pointed their spears at them, and completely surrounded her and the scorpion armor.
A middle-aged man dressed in an official mansion also strode into the restaurant, looking Ah Xiyan and Scorpion Armor up and down.
When he saw the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper with blood on their eyebrows, as well as the soldiers lying motionless on the ground, their faces also changed, obviously thinking that this scene was too bloody and cruel.
"You two killed these people, right? You two kill people in broad daylight, do you still have the royal law in your eyes? This White Camel City is not a place for you to do whatever you want! ”
After scanning the restaurant, Lord Luo pointed at those who were bleeding from his eyebrows, and accused with anger on his face.
"Lord Luo, right? It's not what you think. The real harm is the people who are bleeding from their eyebrows, that is, the owner and the shopkeeper of this restaurant. Others just fainted temporarily. In fact, the shopkeeper intended to poison the twenty of us, and after we found out, we just got rid of it. And the shopkeepers are not ordinary people at all, they are all killers lurking in the White Camel City. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to see that one of them is a fang. Once captured alive, he will bite his fangs and commit suicide. ”
A Xiyan explained without humility or arrogance.
After listening to Ah Xiyan's words, Lord Luo gave a nearby soldier a look.
The soldier put away his spear, walked over to one of the shopkeepers with a bloody brow, and crouched down to examine it carefully.
In addition to checking the belongings he was carrying, he also looked at the hands of the deceased, as well as the teeth in his mouth.
"Lord Luo, after the villain checked, he found that this person had a hidden weapon hidden for assassination, and the calluses on his hands also showed that he was not an ordinary shopkeeper. And there is indeed a tooth in his mouth that is inlaid backwards, and it cannot be ruled out that it is a poisonous fang. ”
After the inspection, the soldier respectfully came to Lord Luo and reported.
"I know. Go down. ”
Lord Luo's face softened a little and replied.
looked at Ah Xiyan again and continued to ask: "Even if what you say is true, this official can't just listen to you. There are still many questions that need to be investigated. Therefore, before the investigation is clear, I am afraid that the two of you will have to follow the official back to the palace. To be honest, I know the owner of this restaurant and have been in this restaurant for many years. Therefore, the official still feels that there is one thing that is unclear, that is, they have kept to themselves for so many years. Why do they poison you when twenty of you come? How do you explain this? This can't help but make this official doubt the purpose of your coming to White Camel City. ”
"Lord Luo, we are just passing through the White Camel City, and we plan to leave here after eating for a maximum of an hour. As for why the shopkeeper has endured it for many years, the reason why he only made a move today is also very simple. That is, he didn't wait until he met us for what they were trying to steal. And this thing is in my hands, which forces them to snatch it at the expense of revealing their identities, but this thing is too important to tell you publicly here. And we still have very important things to do next, so we can't go back to the government with you to investigate slowly. Thank you for your understanding. ”
A Xiyan replied patiently.
"No matter how important your things are, no matter how important things you have to do next, you have to cooperate with the official to return to the government for investigation. Otherwise, you won't want to leave the White Camel City. After all, this is a big case with human lives at stake, and you can't do what you want. Someone's coming! Bring everyone here back to the government! ”
Lord Luo insisted disapprenorovingly.
also directly ordered to take away Ah Xiyan and them.
"Wait, Lord Luo. I wonder if you received a notice from Prime Minister Dou? Before I came, Prime Minister Dou Cheng said that the government along the way would fully cooperate with me. My name is Ah Xiyan. This is my identity token. You must know who I am, right? ”
When Ah Xiyan saw that Lord Luo handled it impartially, she had no choice but to reveal her identity.
"Chief Physician! It turns out that Prime Minister Dou is talking about you! All of them retreat, don't be unreasonable to Miss A, and see Miss A! ”
When Lord Luo saw the purple-gold token in Ah Xiyan's hand, he exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly stopped the soldier from pointing his spear at Ah Xiyan, and then knelt down and saluted.
"See Miss A!"
The other soldiers also knelt down and saluted.
"Get up."
Ah Xiyan put away the token and said.
"Miss A, please forgive the official for the crime of disrespect just now. Prime Minister Dou Cheng specially flew a pigeon to pass a letter to the lower officials, Miss A's actions are related to national affairs, and the emperor attaches great importance to them, so you must fully cooperate with all your affairs. Please also ask Miss A to do what she asks. As for these killers who have been lurking for many years, they actually dare to assassinate the chief imperial doctor, which is really ill-intentioned and extremely evil! Even if they hadn't died, the lower officials would have beheaded them. ”
Master Luo asked respectfully after getting up.
"Lord Luo, those who don't know don't blame. You don't have to blame yourself too much. Then I'll take care of everything here. The other nineteen temporarily unconscious were all royal guards escorting me, and one of them, Admiral, was my younger brother, who was also the person in charge of this escort mission, and asked Lord Luo to help take care of it. Scorpion Armor and I will go to the White Camel Mountain Canyon first to have some things to deal with, and when we are done, we will send arrows to inform them, and they will rush to the White Camel Mountain Canyon to join us. During this period, everything is bothered by Lord Luo. ”
Ah Xiyan replied without the slightest hesitation.
He informed Lord Luo of his request, and introduced Ah Xichen, who was lying on the ground beside him, to Lord Luo.
"Xia Guan understands and will definitely take care of them. Please rest assured, Ms. A. ”
Lord Luo glanced at Ah Xichen and reassured.
"Good! Lord Naro, Scorpion Armor and I will go first. ”
After Ah Xiyan took one last look at Ah Xichen, she left the restaurant with the scorpion.
"Xiaguan sends Miss A!"
Lord Luo saluted respectfully again.
When Ah Xiyan and Scorpion Jia walked out of the restaurant, they quickly got into the carriage and rushed to the gate of the White Camel City leading to the canyon.
After exiting the city gate, when he came to the entrance of the canyon, the scorpion armor stopped.
"Gu Master, since I learned that the bracelet you are wearing is a Luanfeng gold silk ring, and the shopkeeper is a person sent by the second prince of the royal family of the previous dynasty, I think it is necessary for you to understand the origin of this Luanfeng gold silk ring, and then go to talk to the Qilin Snake Girl, it will be more certain. I didn't know this was the Luanfeng Golden Silk Ring before, so I couldn't tell you some other secrets I knew about the royal family of the previous dynasty. And at this point I feel compelled to tell you that it is. I'm sure you also want to know what this Luanfeng gold silk ring is at this moment, right? It was unexpectedly possible for the second prince of the royal family of the previous dynasty to send people to guard the White Camel City for so many years. ”
Scorpion Armor suggested straight to the point.
And after Ah Xiyan heard the words of the scorpion armor, she also became extremely curious......
