Chapter Seventy-Four: Foolish Words

Seeing Hong'er's tragic expression, Lin Xixue quickly guessed that there were actually not many people around her who thought the same as her.

The reason why she said that she was the only one was because she didn't want me to continue the investigation and make everyone punish together.

"Finally, I will ask you a question, if there is a town in this world, the town does not ask about the background, the meritocracy, the drought will lead water to make canals, and the military disaster has high walls and royal robes, are you willing to abandon the identity of the slave and maid of Yunzhou Mansion and go to this city?"

"Is there such a place in the world?" Hong'er frowned tightly.

"No, it's just a matter of listening to it." Lin Xixue smiled and shook her head.

"Miss, don't make fun of slaves." Hong'er's calm voice revealed some disappointment.

Lin Xixue kept this disappointment in her heart, but did not speak again.

She does have ideas, but she doesn't want to make empty promises, she can't be sure how long she will live, so why use these unrealistic promises to give people unrealistic hopes?

After taking a bath, Hong'er waited for her to change into a blue makeup and woven gold skirt, and wore a small jacket with hyacinth purple moire yarn, which was extremely gorgeous.

It's just that Lin Xixue still prefers the torn skirt she sews herself, after all, when she draws her sword, she can go further in one step.

The banquet was prepared quite richly, Bai Qing and Lin Xixue naturally didn't move, Xu Zhiyi didn't eat much because she had lived in Xu's mansion before and was used to seeing brocade clothes and jade food.

But Niu Zhuang usually doesn't even see much meat, where has he seen so much delicious meat, he immediately grabbed his elbow, beef and began to feast, gnawing his mouth full of oil.

Two hours passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the cups and plates were in disarray, Niu Zhuang was a little reluctant to look at the leftovers on the table, scratched his head, and asked innocently: "Can these be packed?" ”

Bai Qing was talking to the Yunzhou Mansion not far away, and when she heard Niu Zhuang's words, she said lightly: "It's okay, then let's pack it." ”

Niu Zhuang smiled on his face and said, "Thank you White Immortal Master!" ”

After a while, the three of them entered the carriage, and Niu Zhuang followed closely with a large bag of food wrapped in oiled paper, and drove happily to continue to ride the moonlight.

In the carriage, Xu Zhiyi was a little puzzled: "Sister Bai, why do you want to pack it, we bring a lot of food, if we can't finish it, won't it be bad." ”

"If you encounter the siege of the homeless people again, it is good to use these scraps to send it away, so as to save the blood again, bad luck." Bai Qing turned her head away, her voice cold.

"I see, Sister Bai is really thoughtful!" Xu Zhiyi suddenly realized.

Lin Xixue saw Bai Qing's awkward expression, and thought of the fact that she had gone back to find the children who were digging Guanyin soil, and guessed her true intention of packing the leftovers.

But she didn't poke it, just showed a meaningful smile.

Bai Qing took out the previous wolf tail, tied it to the red rope, threw it to Niu Zhuang, and said, "Put this trailer on it, ordinary evils don't dare to approach easily." ”

Hearing that this thing can ward off evil spirits, Niu Zhuang naturally did it immediately.

"Sister Bai, why can you ward off evil spirits by hanging this tail?"

"You fell asleep last night, so I don't know that this tail was cut off from a mountain spirit called the Wolf Maiden last night."

"This wolf girl is also a bit of a Taoist, she cultivated two tails, and after I cut them off, she used a hundred years of Taoism to replace her death, so she left this tail."

"The meaning of hanging this tail is to tell all the mountain spirits that the wolf girls who are stronger than you have broken the way, and if you dare to venture again, you need to weigh yourself first. Therefore, when the vast majority of spirits saw this tail, they didn't dare to make it easily. ”

After all, Xu Zhiyi is a girl's heart, and as soon as she heard the story of this mountain spirit, she immediately became interested, grabbed Bai Qing's arm and asked, "Sister Bai, Sister Bai, what kind of monster is this wolf girl?" What is the origin of it? ”

"If you want to talk about the origin of this wolf girl, I don't know, but the most widely spread deeds of this demon are probably a certain time, a wolf girl mixed into the capital of Yunzhou, and then ate the family of the important members of the dynasty."

"Oh? It stands to reason that the household registration check in Yunzhou is quite strict, how did this wolf girl infiltrate Jingyun City, which is the most heavily guarded? When Lin Xixue heard this story, she was also a little curious.

"At that time, the son of this important person was assigned to work as an official in other places, so he got acquainted with this wolf girl, who was not only as beautiful as a flower, but also extremely clever in disguise, and finally succeeded in marrying the son of this important person."

"At that time, the son of this important person had completed his term of office in the field, and when he returned to Beijing to face the saint, this wolf girl, as his family, was not suspected, and it was logical that she mixed into Jingyun City."

"As a result, it didn't take long for more than 70 mouthfuls to be eaten by this wolf girl overnight." Bai Qing paused, and added, "Even the livestock at home were not spared. ”

"It stands to reason that such important cases should have caused a sensation in the entire Yunzhou long ago, but why hasn't there been any news before?" Lin Xixue was puzzled.

"This kind of strange power and chaos, the Yunzhou royal family will naturally not talk nonsense, the world only knows that the state religion of Yunzhou is a vein of the gods, but ignores the Confucianism that has long penetrated into the world."

"There is a saying, 'Zi Bu is silent and strange forces are chaotic', this is the warning of the Confucian saint to the Yunzhou royal family, so the Yunzhou royal family has always been very taboo about this kind of strange power and chaos, and it is never allowed to spread it at will."

Lin Xixue touched her chin and quickly noticed the abnormality: "No, it stands to reason that this Shenxiao lineage is also a Xuanmen, since the Yunzhou royal family taboos these strange forces and chaos things, why do you want to enshrine Shenxiao as the state religion?" ”

Bai Qing's face froze: "Ahem, when I didn't say it, these things don't have much to do with you, just listen to it." ”

"Okay, then ask something else, since the Yunzhou royal family blocked the news at that time, how did you know?" Lin Xixue changed her entry point and continued to ask.

"Hehe", Bai Qing smiled quite proudly, "Of course, it's because the bull noses of Shenxiao can't handle this matter, so the Yunzhou royal family has to ask us Qingyu Mountain to solve it!" At that time, it was my senior brother who came out of the mountain, and it only took more than ten days to capture this wolf girl. ”

When Bai Qing mentioned her senior brother, her eyes were first filled with longing and admiration, but the stars in her eyes were quickly overshadowed by a gloomy color.

"So, since you Qingyu Mountain is hidden, how does the Yunzhou royal family know about your existence? Why do you want to help the Yunzhou royal family solve the problem? ”

Lin Xixue asked another crucial question.

"Hiss......" Bai Qing gasped and wrinkled her nose, "It's really boring to talk to you, it's just gossip in the boudoir, you have to get to the bottom of it, and keep asking some secrets." ”

Lin Xixue smiled bitterly and didn't refute, who let herself not know any information?

Without enough information, she can't make effective inferences and make plans for the next step, which makes her instinctive desire to seek unknown information.

The atmosphere in the carriage fell into freezing point again, and the carriage continued to move forward, and the wheels made a somewhat piercing "creaking" sound......
