Chapter Seventy-Eight

"Didn't I tell you, those are thieves, stealing things, not debt collectors, don't listen to their nonsense, didn't you get beaten away by your father and me in the end? Do you know what it means to be a thief? They are! ”

The little kite breathed a sigh of relief, snorted slightly, and followed the man towards the entrance of the tunnel. She didn't believe her father's words, she was chased by debt collectors and moved everywhere, and every time she only relied on force to solve the problem, and now she was only worried about the safety of those who came to collect debts!

"Huh? Little kite, did you spill the broth? ”

The man's voice was a little hesitant, and Wu Jinghong guessed that he had seen the broth on the wooden board at the entrance of the tunnel.

"No, no...... Ah, this, yes, it was me just now, not me, it was Da Hei who was just naughty and wanted to eat meat, and was spilled when I drove him down! The little kite stammered and explained, and finally put all the blame on the black cat who was still squatting in front of the firewood and humming.

"Tsk, Da Hei is becoming more and more disobedient, and he dares to steal my meat? Well? The man's sharp eyes swept over the big black cat's body, and he didn't stop on the firewood and grass pile for long, but just raised his voice and continued, "By the way, I went out just now and saw two teams of infantry, you said that this imperial capital has been too peaceful recently, and the infantry patrol every day, and today I don't even let go of that abandoned house——"

Wu Jinghong's heart tightened, and there were inevitably some changes between his breathing, and Jiuzun next to him also moved, but he reached out like lightning and caught the big black cat outside the firewood and grass pile.

"Meow, meow!"

The man stopped on the ladder and said leisurely, "Little kite, what's going on?" ”

Seeing that it had been revealed, Wu Jinghong had to pull the firewood and grass out by himself, and then turned around to pull out Jiuzun, who was tightly imprisoned by the big black cat.

"You actually hid two big living people here, little kite, are you getting bolder?"

"Daddy......" The little kite cried pitifully and said softly, "Who told you to beat the debt collector half to death every time, it is a matter of course to repay debts, you have to make everyone feel bad......"

"Ahem! Little kite! How can I talk to your father? ”

Jiuzun grabbed the four legs of the big black cat fiercely, eager to free up another hand to pinch the meow's non-stop mouth, but his attention was not on the little kite and the man at all.

The man pushed the little kite back out of the tunnel, looked Wu Jinghong up and down, and didn't look at Jiuzun, "You are the Yunhuang who the Emperor is shouting to arrest now, right?" ”

Wu Jinghong's face did not change and nodded, and the little kite's eyes widened in surprise, "What? Clouds, clouds, clouds? Are you, Cloud Emperor? ”

"Thank you, girl, for your help." Wu Jinghong nodded, turned back to Jiuzun and said, "Let it go, its owner is kind to us, and we don't want to cause trouble for others anymore, it's best to change places and hide early." ”

Jiuzun gritted his teeth, and finally removed his gaze from the big black cat's big eyes, and as soon as his arm was raised, the big black cat was thrown in front of the little kite.

"Meow-" The big black cat landed lightly, and the black fur on its body stood up again, looking angry, as if it was ready to pounce again.

"Big black, go outside and keep watch." The man suddenly raised his hand and sprinkled something out of the door, and the big black cat barked and slammed out.

Wu Jinghong became vigilant, looked at the man's tone and said, "Who are you?" What are you doing? ”

The little kite also became nervous and ducked behind the man.

The man shook his head casually, waved his hand, found a random firewood pier and sat down, and said in a lazy voice, "What are you nervous about, seriously speaking, I am your senior brother, so naturally I will not harm you." ”

"Senior brother?" Wu Jinghong's heart was shocked, but he didn't get happy because of this, "Senior brother or second senior brother?" The senior brother she said could only be the senior brother on the Holy Doctor Mountain, but in the past three years on the Holy Doctor Mountain, she rarely heard the Holy Physician Father mention the matter of the Senior Brother and the Second Senior Brother, and it seems that she went down the mountain a long time ago, and she usually does not go up the mountain to visit the Holy Physician Father.

"My daughters are so old, so naturally they are big brothers!" The man seemed to have just understood the reason why she was so nervous, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, the infantry outside won't come to search, I just went out to relieve you from the siege, and they can't find anything in that old mansion, let alone find a secret passage." ”

Wu Jinghong's gaze deepened, "You really know the secret way, who are you?" ”

“…… That's it, just take it as if I repay the master, are people who are emperors so troublesome......" The man shook his head, lifted up the sleeve of his left hand, revealing an I-shaped mark on the inside of his wrist, "Look, now this is the only one that can make you detailed, I am a descendant of the Li family, this master should have said it, right?" Even if she doesn't remember the old man, the third child should always know, right? ”

In order to prevent the leakage of their own craftsmanship, the descendants of the Li family are unified in the wrist to carve the I-shaped tattoo, which is very dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will hurt the blood vessels, so only people who are hard enough can do it.

It's just this, basically not let outsiders know, Wu Jinghong saw it by chance when she was reading the classics in the palace of Yunguo, and at the same time she also remembered that Hua Zhinian seemed to have mentioned that the senior brother was proficient in the art of the organ, but because he was victimized by his own organ, he went to ask for help from the holy doctor, and finally simply worshipped the teacher and learned some simple medical skills.

Thinking about it this way, maybe there is no one else in this world who dares to claim to be proficient in the art of the mechanism except the Li family!

"It's really cautious, you don't want to think about it, if I had the intention to harm you, you would have been caught in prison by this time!"

“…… Don't dare, it's just that you are in this situation, and you have to do it, and I hope that the senior brother will not be strange. Wu Jinghong smiled slightly and nodded, "It's just that Xiao Wu didn't expect to meet the legendary senior brother here, Xiao Wu has been on the Holy Doctor Mountain for three years, but he has never seen the senior brother and the second senior brother." ”

"That's right...... Oh, you don't understand, the two of us are much busier than the third child, cough cough, don't talk about this, our Li family is also in decline now, and the descendants are scattered everywhere, and I just pick up some small jobs to make a living. So, there aren't many places that can help you, so let's hurry up and see if there's anything I can help with, after all, it's the same thing, and I heard that Master and her old man still like you. ”

“…… I have received the wishes of the senior brother, but our current situation is really dangerous, I don't want to drag the senior brother down, the slightest carelessness may affect the family. Wu Jinghong shook his head and said cautiously, "We originally settled in the Li family house next door, but we only stumbled upon a few tunnels, so we investigated everywhere, and accidentally made some noise in the tunnels, which alarmed the patrolling infantry, thank you senior brother for helping!" ”

"Hey~ It's serious, it's just a matter of one sentence, aren't they in a hurry to catch you? I casually pointed to an alley for them to chase, those infantry, I have never seen them seriously on an errand on weekdays, but at this time they are blindly serious. The ceremonial soldier waved his hand and sighed, "That is, you are unlucky, you actually bumped into Emperor Shuo, Emperor Shuo is very thoughtful, originally there is a tunnel in the house of the Li family, and there are several houses in the tunnel, and you can also lead to the outside of the city if you turn around." ”

"Really?" Wu Jinghong said in surprise.

"You listen to me first, I have already gone to see it yesterday, although the exit is hidden, but there are also infantry stationed nearby, Emperor Shuo must be afraid that you will escape by other means, so there is also a checkpoint more than ten kilometers outside the city waiting for it!"

Hearing this, Wu Jinghong's brows furrowed even tighter, and he muttered, "Jiuzun's situation is already very serious, if I can't get out of the city within seven days, I can only think of other ways." ”

"You said the poison of this Shura King?" The soldier raised his eyebrows and said lazily, "Has he drunk my wine?" ”

"The cup in the tunnel?" Wu Jinghong reacted immediately, "Yes, after drinking, I reacted very much, my face was red, my eyes were moist, and I seemed to be in a trance, but I recovered quickly." ”

"Since you've also been on the Holy Doctor Mountain for three years, why haven't you smelled the problem with that wine?"

The soldier scratched his head as if he was annoyed and helpless, "That wine, it's my characteristic, I only dare to take a small sip at a time, it's not that the wine is strong, a small taste is just greedy for this taste, if you drink it one sip at a time, it's poisonous!" ”

These words exploded in the ears of Wu Jinghong like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, "What did you add!" ”

"Oh, don't worry, isn't he poisoned himself? Did you find out if there was poison in his body? Maybe my wine can suppress the toxicity for him! The salute soldier was not nervous, and walked lazily into the tunnel, "I just added some big things here, have you heard of the scorpion?" ”

A flash of inspiration flashed in Wu Jinghong's mind, and he suddenly became excited, "Could it be a scorpion from the Witch Kingdom?" How do you have such a thing? ”

"The Li family, you need to travel for a long time, and I got this good thing by going to the Wu Kingdom in person, but there are only two, and I will be soaked in wine when I come back." Soon, the salute soldier came up with a jar of wine again, "Listening to your tone, could it be just right to cure the poison of this Shura King?" ”

"Detoxification can't be done, but it can be suppressed so that his condition will not continue to worsen." Wu Jinghong glanced at Jiuzun, and felt a little relieved.

Jiuzun was lying on the door frame, stretching his neck to look at the big black cat strolling majestically on the beams of the house, his tall body shrunk into a ball, as careful and curious as a child.

"Look at his condition, how much worse can it go?" The salute soldier smiled, "It's not so bad that you can't speak, right?" ”

These words poked into the bottom of Wu Jinghong's heart, making her also worried about this problem, if the situation continues to deteriorate, maybe that kind of situation will really occur, if you don't say anything, you may not be able to take care of yourself.

At that time, for the proud Jiuzun in his heart, it will be the most painful torture, right?
