Chapter 174: Planning
There is a specialization in the art industry.
This kind of thing to find out from the mouths of people from all walks of life is simply commonplace for these shopkeepers, even if the target is an experienced court official.
Soon, the second child who ran the hall came back with food.
While placing the dishes and chopsticks on the table, he whispered: "Guest officer, those two guests are not good at stubble, and the little ones don't dare to ask more, but they found out that they came from the capital to find people." ”
"Looking for someone, looking for whom?"
"They took the initiative to ask if they had seen a girl with silver hair, a young man about seven feet long, a blind and disabled old man, and a girl with pigtails," Xiao Er said, licking his lips, and continued, "but they didn't seem to be able to figure it out, or maybe two people, or three or four, or alone." ”
Although Yintao couldn't be sure if the young man they were looking for was Chen Yin, the silver-haired girl was sure that Qi Yingli hadn't run away.
"Did they say why they were looking for these two?"
"No, after the little one said that he hadn't seen it, he was chased away by the old guest officer," Xiao'er blinked at Yintao, for fear that the other party would ask him to return some silver taels, and quickly added, "Those two are indeed different from ordinary guests, the little one has tried his best, and he doesn't dare to ask more." ”
"Well, thank you, they didn't find anything. ”
"No," Xiao Er immediately shook his head, "As soon as the little one said a word, they took the initiative to ask the little one, and I heard from the shopkeeper that almost everyone in the store asked, and they only ordered a few meals, and it seemed that they would leave soon." ”
After Xiao Er finished speaking, the shopkeeper called him outside the lobby.
"So, ...... Does the guest officer have any other orders, the little one has to go to other things. ”
Yintao buried his head in thought, but nodded absentmindedly.
The shopkeeper exited the room with his front foot, and as soon as he closed the door, the window was suddenly pushed open. When Yintao came back to his senses, two figures were already standing in the room.
Yin Tao was shocked, and hurriedly ran to the door, hearing that Xiao Er had already walked away, before turning his head to look at the two of them.
"Senior Brother Silver. ”
Chen Yin and Yingli coincidentally greeted each other.
Yin Tao looked nervous, and said in a low voice: "Why did you get here?" Wen Zuyu and Fang Fan are downstairs, looking for you. ”
"We just followed them all the way here," Yingli said, "We all heard what the shopkeeper said just now, and looking at this appearance, the two of them will definitely find them all the way to Dinghua Mountain." ”
"If it was to look for you, it must have been to Dinghua Mountain before stopping, but why would they look for you along the official road?"
This matter is a long story, and Chen Yin still told Yintao everything in detail - from the changes in the capital to the head of the family asking them to leave Beijing and return to Dinghua Mountain, the deaths of Chen Moling and Gong Shuangting were naturally not omitted - it's just that Chen Yin hasn't thought about whether to let more people know about the matter of soul jade.
For Yintao, it was as if he had been isolated from the world for several years, but in fact it was only a few days. Everything Chen Yin said was difficult for him to accept at once.
"Senior Brother Mo Ling and Senior Sister Gong—" Yin Tao closed his eyes for a moment, "It's my fault, I shouldn't have acted so separately." ”
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister's matter, it has nothing to do with Senior Brother Yin, don't blame yourself," Ying Li said with relief, "There is one more thing at the moment, this morning, I sensed that there are a lot of strong forces that are also moving to the south, but they are only gone for a moment, I estimate that it should be a retreat, and there are quite a few people, I am afraid that they are also going to Dinghua Mountain." ”
"If it weren't for the aura of Senior Brother Yin here, Yingli and I would have rushed to Dinghua Mountain first," Chen Yin added, "However, now that we confirm that Senior Brother Yin is fine, I believe that the head of the sect and Senior Sister Jiang Yuehua can also breathe a sigh of relief." ”
Yin Tao knew that now was indeed not the time for pain, so he eased his mind and asked, "That pile of Yanli is from the official road?"
"No, from inside the forest. ”
"Since Yingli can sense it, then Wen Zuyu must also be able to perceive it," Yin Tao said while thinking, "As an important member of the imperial court, now is the time to ensure peace, there is such a group of Yan forces, Wen Zuyu does not go after it, then there is only one possibility-those people he knows-since it is a retreat technique, there are many people, it will only be people from the Chengshan faction." ”
"That's good, the Chengshan faction is also in the south, and most of them have withdrawn to Chengshan, so at least ......"
Seeing Yintao's solemn face, Yingli didn't say any more.
"If they return to Chengshan, they will escape back along the official road, and walking in the mountains and forests at night is nothing more than to avoid people's eyes and ears," Yin Tao suddenly had a moment, he had to confirm one thing first, "Senior Brother Chen, Senior Sister Qi, you said that he followed Wen Zuyu and Fang Fan all the way, why didn't he find you?"
"I hid my own derivation," Chen Yin said, "Yingli is originally a perceptual derivation, if Wen Zuyu senses her, she will also find out, but nothing happened all the way, presumably he thinks that we have been in front of him and have not focused on his back, as long as we don't use the derivation force, out of his enchantment range, it is even more difficult for him to perceive." ”
"That's fine," Yintao continued to ask, "But is there anything missing from what the junior brother said before?"
"Why does Senior Brother ask that?"
Yin Tao said thoughtfully: "I still can't find any reason for this, so I have to let the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Front and the head of the Guards Department go out to find you." ”
Yin Tao definitely couldn't find the reason, and he naturally wouldn't have thought that Chen Yin had something to hide from him.
Chen Yin and Yingli glanced at each other, Chen Yin was a little hesitant, he was thinking about whether he should tell Yintao the truth.
Yingli felt that Yintao was quick-thinking, and if he told the truth, it might be beneficial.
Yin Tao sensed the hesitation between the two: "If there are some things that are inconvenient to tell me, then I won't ask, but you have to be very cautious——"
"That's right," Ying Li said, no longer entangled with Chen Yin, "We have a few soul jades that the imperial court asked us to escort to Beijing at the beginning—the real ones—we have to bring them back to the Dinghua faction to destroy them—I'm afraid they're chasing them." ”
Yin Tao's surprise was beyond words, and after being silent, he didn't ask Chen Yin why they wanted to destroy the soul jade, but only nodded: "Understood, does the head know about this?"
"I didn't mention it, but the boss knows what we're doing, and I don't know what it is. ”
Although Yue Fengfeng had never openly talked to Chen Yin about this matter, Chen Yin guessed from some of his words and deeds before he was in charge of the sect that he knew more or less.
"Anyway, since the head of the sect told you to go back to Dinghua Mountain first, then we will go back first," Yintao opened the door and looked down, the two of them were eating and drinking in the hall, "Wen Zuyu They are looking for four people, but only the two of you are walking, and you are willing to follow them all the way, so the soul jade is there for Miss Tian?"
"Yes, Chanyu and Sun Yao's predecessors went to Dinghua Mountain one step earlier. Yingli nodded in response.
Yin Tao suddenly thought of an idea: "This is easy to do, after you say this, in fact, what they are looking for is not you, but the soul jade, since the soul jade is not on the two of you, you can take advantage of this." ”
