Text Chapter 56 Chance encounter, the old thing has a bit of a history
Seeing that she was just listening, the uncle coughed again and said seriously: "This is good, you should do what you should do, just come and listen." ”
Even though he said this, Leng Qiqi still heard a trace of loss from his voice.
This made her who was drinking with her eyes down, and couldn't help but doubt, although she couldn't believe all of this person's words, she couldn't believe it.
"Lao Zhitou, you don't scare other girls, she is so young, how can she hear you scare like this." One of them saw Leng Qiqi bowing his head and was silent, and hurriedly laughed and comforted.
But Leng Qiqi looked at the old man with a curious look and asked, "Uncle, what about later?" Can the missing women be found? ”
It was impossible to find it in her guess, and what she called it was the bones.
Lao Zhitou didn't expect her to continue to ask, and she asked very seriously, this question also made him worry, they pooled money together, looked for someone to find it, but in the end they didn't bring anything back.
He shook his head, looking lost: "No, nothing was found." ”
That is, she didn't even find the bones, and she didn't want to see such a result.
"Okay, now that the story is over, shouldn't you go back to your house, little girl?" Lao Zhitou glanced at Huang Hao, who was sitting on the other side and didn't come over, and that look seemed to tell him to take Leng Qiqi back, stay alive, and don't run around.
Leng Qiqi said as if he hadn't heard enough, smashing his lips and saying, sitting on the empty chair next to him with a hand supporting his head and saying: "Uncle, your coaxing skills are not good, I don't believe it, if those women are gone, and there is no news, then it must not be in the world, otherwise it will not be safe for the family for so long." ”
The implication is that she didn't believe what he said, so there would be no such boring things in this world.
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Lao Zhitou's face was a little embarrassed, because the mercenary group they invited was not regular, and ten years ago, the mercenary group angered the royal family for some reason, and was uprooted by the current emperor's national teacher.
Only some of those who were on mission escaped the catastrophe, but in the end, they were always included in the list of fugitives, so the people he was looking for couldn't stay in the capital for too long.
So when Leng Qiqi showed an expression of disbelief, he had no choice but to shake his head helplessly: "It's normal to not believe, this is an unconvincing thing, but pity those missing girls." ”
"Old Zhitou, you drank too much and lost your words." A middle-aged man beside him interrupted his words with a calm face, then got up and hugged his fist at Leng Qiqi: "Lao Zhitou has drunk too much, and he is a little vain, so please don't mind the girl." ”
His expression was solemn, and Leng Qiqi couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore, so he got up, nodded at him, and smiled sweetly: "Big brothers, you go on, I won't bother." ”
The implication was that no matter what they said, she wouldn't come back, and, no matter what they said, she was supposed to hear a story.
Returning to her seat, Huang Hao poured her a cup of tea: "Drink saliva first." ”
He heard their conversation clearly, and he didn't have much suspicion about the master invited by the old Zhitou, but he was a little puzzled about this and that.
"Senior brother, what do you think?" Leng Qiqi, who drank two sips of tea, held his chin in his hand, propped his elbows on the table, and asked casually.
Although there are many doubts about this matter, the old Zhitou's words will not be false, because she can tell that he is not lying.
The liar's heart beats faster, and she didn't hear his chaotic breath just now, only heard the suppressed resentment and unreleased anger in his tone, which made her guess the identity of Lao Zhigao, and the people at that table were obviously Lian Jiazi, but they were all very good now, and there was no murderous aura on their bodies.
"There are a lot of people here, and you're almost drunk, so I'll send you back first." Huang Hao saw that someone was listening to their conversation, so he couldn't help but step forward and help her up.
"I hate it, I haven't had enough of it!" She got up, leaned on his arms, raised her hand, and wanted to get the wine jug, and even her tone had a hint of muttering, and the listener knew that it was before she was drunk.
It seems that this little girl should be bored and want to hear the story after asking so much.
Leng Qiqi, who was a little staggering in his footsteps, walked out of the wine shop and returned to his residence.
"Senior sister, are you better?" Huang Hao, who thought she was really drunk, saw her leaning against the door frame and bowed her head silently, so he couldn't help but stay and asked nervously.
Leng Qiqi, who was thinking about something, heard him call like this, and immediately woke up, shook his head, and raised his hand to signal him to come in: "Senior brother come in and talk." ”
There are some things she wants to figure out as soon as possible, otherwise they will arrive in Shangjing, if they don't understand the whole story, then they will fall into passivity.
Just when Huang Hao was hesitating whether to enter, Zhang Wen suddenly hurriedly walked over from outside, and when he saw them, he was very happy.
"Senior brother, junior sister."
"But what's the matter?"
Seeing that he looked a little hurried, Leng Qiqi immediately asked him to come in and speak.
"The master has sent a letter." After entering the room with Huang Hao and closing the door, Zhang Hao took out a token from his arms and handed it to Huang Hao.
Huang Hao took the token, this is a spiritual sense, and it needs to be injected with spiritual power to open and read.
At the moment, he urged the spiritual power with Leng Qiqi and read the letter.
After reading it, he and Leng Qiqi glanced at each other, and the color in their eyes was very heavy.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know."
Both of them were puzzled, saying that they didn't know.
"Senior brother, little junior sister, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Wen was anxious and curious, but he didn't dare to ask.
After the two glanced at each other, Huang Hao was silent for a while before saying, "We have to go to the capital quickly." ”
"To the capital?"
"Well, go and investigate the disappearance of the girl and help the current emperor, if you can't help, you will be trapped." Leng Qiqi said the information she had read in confusion, which made her very puzzled, was this a way for the Immortal Cultivators to directly intervene in the human world?
But there is one thing worth making her happy, that is, Drunken Wangwu is also rushing in the direction of the capital to join her.
"This?" Zhang Wen was stunned, his expression was more dignified than Leng Qiqi, he looked at Huang Hao, very uncertain.
Although he knew their mission, was it a bit early to return to their positions now?
"Since Shizun said so, it means that the matter is serious, we have to go to the capital to prepare well, Zhang Wen, you take people first, gather all our people, and we will definitely use it then."
"Yes." Zhang Wen was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded and got up to leave.
Seeing him get up and leave, Huang Hao raised his head, stared at him, and said in a deep voice: "I'm going to work hard for you." ”
"It should." Zhang Wen turned around and was very respectful.
Leng Qiqi couldn't understand where the respectful meaning between them came from, but he could guess that they would be very strict with their experience when they came out this time, and Ouyang Yan said that these registered disciples would help Huang Hao in the future, that is, Huang Hao would lead those registered senior brothers to stay in the world together, and would not continue to practice with her.
This experience is really important to them, looking at Huang Hao's nervous expression, Leng Qiqi couldn't help but guess like this.
However, Huang Hao did not leave, but stayed in her room, looking at her without saying anything.
"Senior brother, do you have something to say?" Leng Qiqi asked softly.
Huang Hao nodded at her with a little embarrassment, originally he thought that going to the capital was just a simple trial, but he didn't expect it to be such an arrangement, that is to say, if the royal family really can't protect the right anymore, then the next thing will be related to him.
Although he always wanted to go back to Beijing and go home, he didn't expect it to be this way.
Seeing her worried, he shook his head lightly, pursed his lips, and said, "It's okay, it's late at night, little sister, you should rest early." Tomorrow we're going to get on our way. ”
If he didn't say anything, then she didn't want to ask too much, and nodded: "Then senior brother should rest early." ”
"Hmm." Huang Hao, who nodded in response, took a deep look at her, pursed his lips, and left.
Leng Qiqi didn't quite understand the look in their eyes, but her intuition told her that this past might be a very difficult experience for them.
Although she had such mental preparation, when the ending was in front of her, she was still shocked for a moment, she didn't expect it to be like that......
The next day, they got up early and rushed straight to the capital.
The more you go to the capital, the more and more rumors like that, but they have all been suppressed by the recent election of the old emperor's concubine.
"The old emperor has been choosing concubines all year round, what is he thinking?" Huang Hao was puzzled and discussed with Zhang Wen and others.
Leng Qiqi also knew about this matter, but she didn't know much, and there was no evidence to prove whether the women who were taken to the palace were still alive, so she didn't dare to draw conclusions easily.
The closer she got to the capital, her heart became inexplicably clear.
"Senior brother, tomorrow you will go to Beijing, and I will wait outside here for worry," she could now feel the breath of drunken hope and worry. This may be the charm of the Supreme Contract.
Although Huang Hao really wanted her to go with him, he knew that he still had a lot to do after entering the city, so he could only nod helplessly: "Then you be careful." ”
"Don't worry, I will stay in the village or sleep in the wilderness without disturbing the world."
"Master said that you can ignore your identity when this matter is necessary, little junior sister, you,"
Leng Qiqi interrupted Huang Hao, who was still worried about her but was anxious to go to the city first, playfully circled around him, and jumped and said, "Don't worry, I know the measure." ”
Although she had never entered the mortal world to catch evil demons in her previous life, people in the world were evil, and they would definitely leave traces, so she had to look carefully outside, whether it was the emperor's choice of concubine or the disappearance of the girl, she felt a little strange.
Seeing her so calm, while the city gate was not closed, Huang Hao led the others into the city.
Two days ago, Zhang Wen sent a letter to him, saying that the identity of the person who talked to him in the wine shop that day had been clarified, and it turned out that he used to open a wine shop, but it was specially used to entertain the mercenary group, but ten years ago, the mercenary group offended the current emperor for some reason, and the group was wiped out, and no one who was connected with the mercenary group was allowed to enter the imperial city.
He had to hurry into the city, meet Zhang Wen, and ask what was going on.
