Chapter 36 Return, no wind, no rain, only sunny

Looking at the city after the rain, the scene is more new.

After a deep night's sleep, Su Qidu sat in the lobby of the inn, looking at the busy work of the vendors selling tofu brains across the street, there was still a lot of rain in the depressions on the bluestone pavement, the sky was extremely clear, there was no white clouds, and the occasional wisp of breeze brought dampness and coolness.

It was a refreshing morning.

Zhao Riyue was drinking porridge on the side.

She wasn't in a good mood.

Yesterday's fight was so severe that many parts of the city were affected, Wang Han hurriedly took an elixir to treat his wounds, and quickly took control of the city guards, ordering them to go to various parts of the city to relieve the disaster.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a man-made disaster.

Su Qi and Zhao Riyue, who ran to help, saw a lot of casualties, men, women, the old, and the saddest thing was that there were still children of a few years old, crying, screaming, moaning, and scolding, which brought huge confusion and confusion when they penetrated into their ears.

Sometimes, we just want all the monks to disappear.

Su Qi turned his head to look at the innkeeper, he was in a good mood today, the inn was far away yesterday, it was not affected, and no guests were injured.

"We're leaving the store today and bothering the boss for a few days, so I'm sorry. ā€

"Where is this, guest officer, you are generous, top ten guests," the boss shook his head, and asked again, "Don't stay one more day? Tomorrow is the day of the spring festival." ā€

"No, there is an urgent matter, let's go out to see some friends first, and we may come back in the afternoon to get the carriage." ā€

"Okay, I'll feed you the horses in a minute. ā€

New pavilion.

The lake is sparkling, a wild duck is swaying on the lake, followed by a string of ducklings in the back row, dumbfounded, and there are two isolated egrets on the shore, leisurely pecking.

Jiang Rui sat in the pavilion, carrying a pot of wine in his hand.

"I heard that you have reached an agreement with the Wang family. ā€

Su Qi sat down beside him.

"You're very well informed. ā€

"Last night, the little kid in white came to my inn with a handful of snot and tears, saying that you were bullying him. ā€

"Wimpy kid....... Do you really not know the name of the Feather Coat Ancestor?" Jiang Rui handed the wine jug to Su Qi.

Su Qi smelled it, the slightly spicy smell rushed straight ahead, he raised his head and took a small sip, "I've only heard that he is moody." ā€

"It's true, I heard that he wants to take you as an apprentice. ā€

"I have a teacher. Su Qi handed back the wine jug, "So that alien pupil will be brought to Wanfa Sect by the Wang family first?"

"That's right, come back to serve in our army in five years. Jiang Rui took back the flask and took a sip.

"There is such a shortage of people in the Demon Suppression Pass?"

Jiang Rui looked at the wild duck in the lake, "Not really, it's just planning for the future, after all, a different pupil is almost equal to a divine thought in the future." ā€

"Maybe in a few days, I'll go to the Demon Suppression Pass. ā€

"Come, please drink! the strongest wine in town. ā€

Su Qi touched the chessboard, and there was a crack on it, "Yesterday's head?"

Jiang Rui put down the wine jug, "I don't know who it is, I've never heard that there is a seal under Lin'an City." ā€

Su Qi carefully inspected the place where the head flew out yesterday, and found that the formation that sealed the head was skillfully fused with the ancient formation of Lin'an City, and it was buried deep underground, and he didn't notice it at all in the past few days.

"He said this is the Imperial City?" Su Qi asked again.

"There is no record that Lin'an City was once an imperial city. ā€

Su Qi was silent for a while, and then asked, "What the hell is going on with that eagle demon?"

"It should have intercepted and killed Elder Chu of the Ten Thousand Law Sect halfway and deceived the people of the Wang family. ā€

"What an eventful time. Su Qi sighed.

"It's spring. Jiang Rui glanced at him.

Su Qi was stunned, "That's right, okay, I'm leaving, see you soon." ā€

"There will be fate. ā€

Su Qi turned around and left.

"Oh yes, there's probably another show in the city today, you should go check it out. Jiang Rui shouted behind him.

Su Qi turned his head suspiciously, Jiang Rui blinked, but refused to say more, "It has something to do with you." ā€

After Su Qi left, Jiang Rui sat in the new pavilion with sad eyes, and after a long time, he poured the wine in the pot on the lakeside and said softly, "Goodbye, Third Emperor Brother." ā€

Indeed, there is a story in the city.

A large number of city guards posted notices in the city, and Su Qi leaned over to take a look.

The above list counts the sins committed by the Qi family in the past few decades, a full eighty-one.

There is other news, Qi Daowu has been ambushed, Lin'an City will soon join the Dali Dynasty, and the taxes will be reduced by one percent.

The most interesting thing is that it is also written below that Qi Rujun will be executed in the city today.

"Let's go over and have a look?" Zhao Riyue asked.

Su Qi nodded.

A wooden platform was erected under the bronze statue in the city, and Qi Rujun knelt on it, looking depressed, and there were already many good deeds watching from the sidelines.

Several soldiers were loudly recounting Qi Rujun's crimes.

ā€œ....... Just a few days ago, Qi Rujun also teamed up with Zhao Sheng and others to frame the monks! Reversing black and white...... We bring the witnesses today, so that everyone can see Qi Rujun's hypocrisy!"

The middle-aged man was pulled onto the wooden platform, looking terrified, and knelt on the ground tremblingly.

"I—I was blinded by lard, obeyed Qi Rujun's words, framed a young monk and bullied me, I, I don't want to! But Qi Rujun is powerful, what can I do......"

He cried pitifully.

Another woman with a graceful posture came to the stage, and Qi Rujun, who had been quiet, saw her and struggled, and the surprise and anger in her eyes could not be concealed.

The woman stared at Qi Rujun for a while, her expression was complicated, and she turned to the crowd and saluted, "My name is Yuan Yuan, I am the daughter of a small family in Dongcheng, six years ago, my father died in the prison of the Qi family, I had no choice, I entered the flower building, a few days ago, Qi Rujun and a group of friends discussed how to frame a monk, and it happened that I accompanied the wine ......"

Qi Rujun looked at the woman's back and listened, but suddenly let go, lowered his head, and was silent.

"This Yuan Yuan is actually a member of the Wang family......"

Su Qi had heard her name, and Qi Rujun held the top card in one hand.

"The world is unpredictable. ā€

Su Qi looked at it for a while and said to Zhao Riyue, "Let's go, let's go back and get the carriage." ā€

"Don't you see him beheaded?"

"What's the point?"

Zhao Riyue turned her head to see that there were several monks in the crowd, she remembered their faces, and they also went to the inn that day, looking at their blank or ashamed or questioning looks, and said, "It's really not interesting." ā€

On the top floor of a restaurant not far away, the old Taoist and Li Fuyao looked at Su Qi's back.

"Why don't you go down and see you?" the old Taoist changed to a new wine gourd.

Li Fuyao shook his head, "It's still early." ā€

"I had a funny idea. ā€

Li Fu squinted his eyes, this uncle is full of black history, "What?"

"How about getting him on the list?"

"On the list?" Li Fuyao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "It's worthy of being an uncle, and he can make trouble!"

"How do you speak! It's not big or small!" the old man glared.

He took a big sip from the flask and continued with a mouthful of wine.

"Hmph, it's reasonable anyway, killing a big demon is already qualified to be on the list!"

Zhao Riyue drove the carriage, the door curtain was rolled up, and there were a lot of things piled up in the car, the books he brought, the specialties he bought, the materials he cheated from the Qi family, and a large bag of snacks that Zhao Riyue bought.

rushed to the dilapidated house in Xicheng, without even knocking on the door, Su Qi shouted a few times.

Bai Tang came out, he had nothing to clean up.

I only brought the packet of medicine.

Su Qi glanced at it and didn't say anything.

"Where are you going?" Bai Tang looked at the carriage, thought about it, and also sat on the carriage, next to Zhao Riyue.

"I'm going to pick up two people first. ā€

-------------

It was Wei Qi who opened the door, his eyes red.

"Where's your sister?"

"She's packing her things. ā€

When I came yesterday, the saddest thing to cry was Wei Wan, who was in a hurry on weekdays, but Wei Qi, who had always been cowardly, grew up overnight, took over the sword left by his father on the long street, listened to Su Qi's story about what happened, and promised to consider Su Qi's proposal with tears in his eyes.

Wei Wan came out of the room, only carrying Wei Jue's sword.

"We didn't take anything with us, and Grandpa Chen said he would stay and take care of the house, and maybe one day, my father would be able to come back. ā€

Su Qi nodded, "There is always hope." ā€

Wei Wan walked over, she looked up at Su Qi, "Can you really teach us to cultivate?"

"It's not me, it's my senior brother. ā€

"Then ......." Wei Wan hesitated a little.

Su Qi understood her gaze.

"That's right, from today onwards, call me Uncle Xiao. ā€
