"Your Excellency really has the Jiannan Dao map from fourteen years ago in your hand?"

Facing the restrained man sitting in front of him, Gu Youtian always had some doubts about whether the other party had come to claim the bounty.

But it's unlikely after thinking about it, after all, this is a regular bounty put up by the Demon Purification Division.

It's just that if he really has a plan, why does he seem so flustered?

Li Qingmu brewed a pot of spiritual tea by himself, folded his legs, and sat quietly with a cup.

seems to be well-behaved and quiet, but in fact, he is more anxious than anyone else to see the map.

"There really is ......," Lan Anxing blushed.

The teachings of his wife before leaving always come to mind are in his mind, to get an inch inch, and to open his mouth widely!

But it is very unreasonable to use only a completely worthless map to ask people to help treat Xiaoyu's disease.

Xiaoyu's illness is not so easy to treat, according to the words of those doctors, it is not even a "disease", but a "life".

This feeling is like holding the cap of the iced tea bottle of "one more bottle" in the later life, which could have been exchanged for a hundred yuan from someone else, but he had to open his mouth to exchange it for the entire Wanda Plaza.

For his background, naturally he has never done such a thing.

It's no wonder that he is so restrained, after all, his conscience is a little unbearable.

"Don't be nervous." Gu Youtian had to say something to remind the other party to relax.

It was as if he was interrogating a prisoner.

He glanced at Li Qingmu, who was sitting quietly beside him, and felt more and more like it.

If she is holding a pen and paper instead of a teacup, she is recording a confession.

Sensing Gu Youtian's gaze, the action of the goose saintess stopped, and after thinking for a few breaths, she took another cup, poured him a cup too, and pushed it in front of him.

"......" Gu Youtian took it silently.

Lan Anxing became even more nervous.

But for the sake of his daughter, he had to bite the bullet and say excessive conditions to the other party.

"This son, I want to ask, is it true that the map is exchanged for a hundred taels of silver?"

"Nature is true." Gu Youtian put one hundred taels of silver on the table, picked up the teacup and tasted it silently in Li Qingmu's posture, "As long as you have checked the map and it is indeed fourteen years ago, your Excellency can take these silvers." ”

Looking at the white flowers and shining silver ingots, Lan Anxing swallowed his saliva and moistened his dry throat.

Resisting the urge to just let go of the map and take away the silver taels, he stretched his arm into his arms and felt the touch of the paper scroll, and then calmed down a little.

"Childe, if I don't want silver, I just want to beg Childe to do me a favor, if Childe agrees, I will give the map with both hands, okay?"

"What if I can't help you?" Gu Youtian asked.

"Then I'll only take fifty taels of silver......," Lan Anxing replied.

Gu Youtian and Li Qingmu exchanged some glances.

"Yes, Your Excellency will tell me what you need me to help you with."

"I have a daughter, now seven and a half years old, who has been suffering from hysteria since three months ago, and she is insane all day long...... At first, the little girl could still recognize her father and mother, and she would listen to what she said, but gradually, her hysteria became more and more serious, and now she no longer recognizes us, and every day she says that there is a non-existent partner who calls her to go out to play......"

Lan Anxing looked pained:

"The little girl began to talk to herself, as if she was talking to someone next to her, but her side was clearly empty, and even one day the little girl said that her friend called her to play underwater, saying that there was a dragon palace, there was a treasure, and she almost drowned the little girl, but fortunately, the villagers found out in time......"

"Right now, we have to confine our little girl at home, but her mental state is getting worse and worse, she becomes irritable and manic, and sometimes hurts herself......"

"I really don't know what to do with her mother, I have searched all the famous doctors around, but I can't see the reason, I just say that the little girl has no physical problems, but the little girl is clearly getting thinner and thinner......"

"They all said that it was not a disease, but the life of the little girl......"

Talking about his daughter, Lan Anxing, who was very normal, also looked a little crazy.

"So, you want us to help you heal your daughter?" Gu Youtian frowned and asked.

To be honest, just for a map, the price is actually a bit big.

"No, no!" Lan Anxing hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "If Childe can really cure the little girl, it will naturally be the best, but I don't want it, as long as Childe can teach us what disease the little girl is suffering and how to treat it, we will figure out how to ...... by ourselves."

He gritted his teeth, his expression very determined.

He and his wife were very united, and even if they sold all the remaining possessions, they had to heal their daughter.

Treating such a thing, Gu Youtian naturally couldn't do it, so he set his eyes on Li Qingmu's side.

The holy woman holding the goose still maintained the posture of drinking tea, but the tea in the cup was not missing a drop, obviously her heart was not here, but she had been listening attentively to the conversation between the two.

She nodded at Gu Youtian.

Naturally, she can't cure diseases, but the "view" of the Yuan infancy, if she wants to see the symptoms of mortals, it is still easy.

"Okay, I can promise you." Gu Youtian drank all the spiritual tea, "Not to mention curing your daughter, I will definitely help you figure out the crux of her." ”

Lan Anxing was overjoyed and thanked excitedly: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you." ”

"However, you have to take out the map first and let us inspect the goods." Gu Youtian reminded.

Lan Anxing swore that "this is nature." ”

He took out a bundle of paper from his bosom.

When he saw the knot, his expression was slightly strange.

Is this a knot tied by yourself? It doesn't feel like it......

Nervously, I opened the paper roll.

The three of them read the contents of the paper scroll.

Bang, Li Qingmu put down the teacup heavily, his earlobes were slightly red, and he spat a few times and turned to leave.

Gu You stared at Lan Anxing with an unkind expression:

"Are you playing a trick on us?"

Lan Anxing's face turned blue and red for a while, and he naturally saw the paper scroll spread out on the table, on which were clearly painted disheveled and springy maids.

This is a map of Jiannan Road, which is clearly an inferior spring palace painting.

Lan Anxing almost didn't suck it in one breath, clenching his fists.

How could it be......

Before he came, he had confirmed it again and again, this was the map of Jiannan Road drawn by his father fifteen years ago, how did it suddenly become a map of the Spring Palace?

He suddenly remembered the sharp pain in the back of his head when he rushed to the Zhendong Inn.

Could it be ......

Why?

No one should know that he was carrying a map and wanted to collect the bounty.

Who exactly!

Lan Anxing's heart was filled with boundless anger, remorse, self-blame and other complicated emotions, and turbulent waves were surging in his mind.

"Childe, I'm ......"

"I don't know why it's like this...... My father served in the staff department of the Dali Military Department, and he was specifically responsible for drawing maps, so he didn't dare to deceive his son! ”

"I was attacked on the road just now, someone must have robbed me of my map!"

"Childe Mingjian!! If someone comes to receive the reward with a map with the words "painted by Lan Heng of the Dali Staff", it must be the villain! ”

"I still have a lot of old Jiannan Road maps in my house, if you don't believe it, you can go with me to see it!"

He knew that he had lost his faith now and had no way to convince Gu Youtian and Li Qingmu.

He could only pat his chest, repeatedly assured that there were still more ancient maps hidden in his home, and invited Gu Youtian and Li Qingmu to check on his home.

Just when Gu Youtian decided to refuse, Li Qingmu, who had been paying attention to this side, quietly communicated to him:

"He's not lying, maybe we can go and see."

She has already entered the infancy stage, and she is not afraid of what Lan Anxing will do.

Finally, there are clues to the map, you should always try it, and it is important to get the map first.

At Li Qingmu's insistence, Gu Youtian agreed to the plan of going home with Lan Anxing.

……

The two followed Lan Anxing to his home.

As a second-generation official, Lan Anxing's family has a large house, but judging from the furnishings, they have indeed sold a lot of things, and now they are living in a very poor situation.

His wife was busy and brought out the only fine tea in the house for guests.

Lan Anxing took Gu Youtian and Li Qingmu to his father's library, took out those long-sealed maps, and showed them to the two.

"These are all maps drawn by my father in the past, and they did not deceive the son, but were really taken away from him......"

Just as Lan Anxing was explaining to Gu Youtian why there was a spring palace map, a thin but sharp roar suddenly came from the courtyard next to him:

"Hoh!! Let me go! ”

"Mother's ......"

"Daddy......"

The voice sounded very poignant.

Gu Youtian stopped and turned his head to look at Lan Anxing.

"That was your daughter just now?"

"Yes......" Lan Anxing replied with a distracted look in his eyes, his wife bowing her head.

The two of them were obviously not surprised by this kind of voice, but every time they heard it, their hearts were still like knives.

"Let's go see your daughter first."

"Childe, go this way."

Lan Anxing took Gu Youtian and Li Qingmu to the side courtyard at home.

Unlocking the door, he pushed open the heavy, visibly reinforced door and reached the room where their daughter was.

A seven-and-a-half-year-old girl is tied to the bed with hemp rope.

When he saw someone coming, he struggled hard and tried to break the hemp rope on his body.

She had a strange look on her face and muttered strange tones.

I even want to cut my face with my fingernails.

Her mother trimmed her nails every day so that she wouldn't hurt herself.

This kind of scene makes anyone's scalp tingle when they watch it.

Li Qingmu's sword finger crossed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw clearly the black resentment entangled in Lan Anxing's daughter.

"Your daughter is not ill."

"Huh?" Lan Anxing was stunned for a moment.

"Where did she go three months ago? This is the nightmare of some kind of demon beast. ”

"Nightmare? ……”

"That's right, and because she hasn't been treated for a long time, now these nightmare techniques have penetrated deep into her brain, making her subconsciously accept that her imaginary partner is real."

"Immortal-sama!" Lan Anxing pounced and pulled his wife to kneel down for Li Qingmu.

"Immortal Lord, please save the little girl!"

"The Jiannan Dao map you want, I will definitely send it to you!"

Li Qingmu looked embarrassed, so he had to help the two of them up:

"It's not that I don't want to save it, it's that the nightmare has entered my brain, and forcibly treating it with my strength will only make her brain damage worse."

"But I can teach you a cure."

Lan Anxing hurriedly asked: "Please also ask Lord Immortal for advice!" ”

"Find the demon beasts that can hallucinate, take their true blood, dilute it, and feed it to your daughter with other auxiliary medicines."

"The true blood of this kind of demon beast is born with the ability to resist the Nightmare Technique, and to a certain extent, it can eliminate the influence of the Nightmare Technique, and with a little more time, it can be completely eliminated."

"Thank you, Senshi-sama!"

Although Lan Anxing had never heard of any demon beast true blood or anything like that, at least he knew a way to heal his daughter.

Then there is a direction to work towards.

Gu Youtian naturally saw Xiaoyu's terrifying appearance, sighed, took out the hundred taels of silver, thought about it, added another hundred taels of silver, and stuffed it into the arms of the woman who couldn't cry.

"Brother Lan, I believe what you say."

"These silver taels should be regarded as the bounty of Yutu."

Lan Anxing looked at the silver shining silver and was stunned, and asked blankly:

"Childe, my map has been taken away from ......"

Gu You smiled and said:

"I have just seen the map of Brother Lan's house, so I naturally believe that Brother Lan still has a way to get a new one."

"These silver taels should be regarded as deposits."

Lan Anxing was stunned for a moment, then reacted and hurriedly thanked Gu You.

……

In the distance, Liuli is looking at this place from afar.

She still held the map she had taken from Lan Anxing in her hand, and she was going to secretly give it to her master at night, but she didn't expect the master to follow this person to his house!

She naturally also saw the abnormality of Lan Anxing's daughter.

also saw Gu Youtian's actions.

Her heart suddenly began to hesitate a little, snatching this map and giving it to her master for free is indeed something she can do for her master.

But if the master knows that he has obtained the map in this way, will he really praise himself?

Looking at the appearance of the owner, he may not be happy.

Maybe you'll hate yourself because of it.

Although it would make her feel happy to be disgusted by her master, she didn't want to upset her master because of herself.

Liuli clenched the map in her hand, and decided in her heart that she would return it to the man later......

……

On the way back to the Zhendong Inn.

Li Qingmu and Gu Youtian walked side by side.

The goose-hugging saintess turned her head and asked:

"Daoyou is generous, what if people can't come up with a map?"

Gu Youtian shrugged:

"Gu is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either."

"Let's assume that Gu is gambling, if he can really find the map, then Gu has won the bet."

The corners of Li Qingmu's mouth rose slightly:

"Then what if the Taoist friend loses the bet?"

"If Gu loses the bet, Brother Lan's daughter will be able to live a little longer, and Gu Mouren will be considered to have fulfilled his righteousness, isn't it?"

Li Qingmu was noncommittal.

She just silently turned her head away, looked at the street behind her, and muttered:

"Actually, Qing Mu has a way to cure the nightmare that Xiaoyu suffered."

Coincidentally, there are ready-made demon beasts that can spell illusions in Yongze Town.

It's just that she keeps calling Gu Daoyou's master and calling her own mother......

Liuli, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to the heavenly spirit cover.
