Chapter 44: The Xuanwu Cover is Lost and Recovered
"Poria, I want to visit King Duan today, I wonder if you can accompany me?"
Early in the morning, Li Changci decided to go to Duanwangfu to ask about the time of the unsolved case in the capital that year.
Because the news that Su Yueru was coming back had spread, the people in the mansion did not dare to stop Li Changci from leaving the mansion for a while, and Li Changci came to Duanwang's mansion with Poria very smoothly.
When I passed by the guest room, I happened to meet a group of people coming out of the guest room.
"It's you!" The person who spoke was none other than Zhong Zhaoran, who was trapped in a mass grave that day.
Poria was a little surprised and asked, "Miss Changci recognizes them?" ”
Li Changci looked up at Zhong Zhaoran, but he didn't expect the other party to be really here, and he thought that his Xuanwu cover was still in the other party's hand, so he said to Poria Cocos: "I'm tired of the Poria girl to talk to the princess and princess, and I met my old friend in the next place, so I said hello and went over." ”
Poria wondered why Li Changci was an old friend of the Taoist of Ziyang Mountain, but he still didn't show his face, and respectfully said goodbye to Li Changci and the others.
Seeing that Poria had already walked away, the one in the crowd looked at Li Changci and confirmed that there were traces of cultivation on his body, and his aura was extremely pure and abundant, in comparison, his eldest disciple Zhong Zhaoran was far worse than this woman.
This person is none other than Guo Zhanshan, the master of Ziyang Mountain, who is one hundred and thirty years old, and began to enter the Dao cultivation at the age of four.
Guo Zhanshan secretly wondered to himself, what sect and sect Li Changci came from, so young but extremely cultivated, how could he never have heard of such a character.
Guo Zhanshan turned around and asked Zhong Zhaoran: "Disciple, are you sure that this Taoist friend saved you?" ”
Zhong Zhaoran affirmed towards the master: "Master, it was indeed this fellow Daoist who saved me and my junior sister. Then he introduced to Li Changci: "Fellow Daoist, I am Zhong Zhaoran, the eldest disciple of Ziyang Mountain, this is my master, the master of Ziyang Mountain, this is my senior brother and sister, Senior Sister Luo Qian's cultivation was seriously depleted that day, and she is still pranayama. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhong Zhaoran scratched his head in annoyance, and said embarrassedly: "I don't know the name of the Taoist friend, where did he come from?" ”
Li Changci bowed his head to the people of Ziyang Mountain and said: "Qingyue view Li Changci." ”
Qingyue view?
I don't seem to have heard much of this place.
However, after receiving the apprentice's affirmative reply, Guo Zhanshan looked at Li Changci's eyes with some gratitude: "Thank you for saving Zhaoran and Qian'er's lives, I thank you on behalf of Ziyang Mountain, this is a little heart, please accept it." ”
Guo Zhanshan took out a bottle of Lingyuan Dan from his storage bag and handed it to Li Changci.
Li Changci glanced at it, and did not accept it, but arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the mountain master, the effort is not enough, but in order to protect the two Taoist friends that day, the Xuanwu cover in the view was used by the two of them, but after I came back, the Taoist friends were together with the Xuanwu cover..."
Li Changci didn't finish his words, but there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes when he looked at Zhong Zhaoran.
In an instant, everyone in Ziyang Mountain looked at the sky and the ground, and there was an awkward atmosphere around them.
was mentioned by Li Changci, Zhong Zhaoran immediately remembered this incident, his face turned red with shame, and he quickly explained: "Dao... Don't get me wrong, this is the thing, when Master and my brothers came that day, my sister and I were unconscious, and I didn't know where I went, Master, they waited for half an hour and didn't see you come back, so they removed the Xuanwu cover and took us back to the palace to heal. ”
Speaking of this, he took out the Xuanwu cover from his arms again, and stuffed it into Li Changci's hand together with the bottle of Lingyuan Pill: "Fellow Daoists, rest assured, this thing is intact." ”
Li Changci did not refuse, put the two things into the storage bag, and said goodbye to everyone.
Looking at Li Changci's chic back, Guo Zhanshan couldn't help but praise Tiansu's talent.
The disciples of Ziyang Mountain on the side all looked slightly stunned.
Although the master treats people gently and politely on weekdays, he never praises a person easily, but now when he sees Li Changci's side, he praises his talent, is it possible that Li Changci's cultivation is higher than that of Senior Brother Zhong.
No matter how the disciples of Ziyang Mountain guessed, Li Changci had already met Duan Shilin and Chu Lingshu here.
"Long resignation, the last time I saw you was at the queen's banquet, and the dress that day was really beautiful, very much like your mother." Chu Lingshu looked at Li Changci, her eyes were very kind.
"Thank you Princess for your careful care, thanks to the help of Miss Poria these days."
"How many times have you said it, just call me Aunt Chu, if you like Poria Cocos, I will let Poria stay with you all the time."
Li Changci rejected the offer to keep Poria by his side, because he had never wanted to live in the capital for a long time.
Li Changci stood in the center of the hall, generous, Chu Lingshu liked it the more he looked at it, and he envied Su Yueru for giving birth to a daughter, but unfortunately he gave birth to a son, which was not likable.
Knowing that Li Changci didn't like Duan Jinchen, Chu Lingshu deliberately didn't let him come over.
After Li Changci and Chu Lingshu exchanged pleasantries, Duan Shilin asked, "I just heard that Poria said that you came to me today, I don't know why?" ”
"There is indeed something I want to ask the prince." Speaking of this, Li Changci raised his eyes and glanced at the people around Duan Shilin and Chu Lingshu.
Chu Lingshu immediately understood, asked everyone else to go out, and closed the door.
Seeing Li Changci asking like this, both of them were a little curious about what she wanted to ask.
"A few days ago, a person named Wang Er died in my courtyard, involving an unsolved case in the capital fifteen years ago, I don't know if the prince still has an impression?"
"Of course I do."
Duan Shilin naturally will not forget the incident back then, and it has always been a regret in his heart that he did not catch the lawless murderer.
Li Changci continued to ask: "I wonder if the prince can tell me the time of the first and last victims?" ”
Duan Shilin shook his head and refused: "This matter is very important, you can't easily disclose it to others, if you find anything, you can tell me, if you are afraid that the murderer will come to you, I can also send a few guards to the Li Mansion to protect you." ”
had long expected that Duan Shilin would not tell this kind of information to himself so easily, Li Changci said in a deep voice: "There is no need to arrange guards, the murderer is already dead." ”
"What did you say!" Duan Shilin's heart was suddenly shocked, and he looked at Li Changci in disbelief.
"How do you know the killer is dead?" Duan Shilin asked again, this time with a little more urgency in his tone.
"A few days ago and night, I personally beat the murderer who dug out people's hearts back to their original form."
Li Changci said a sentence plainly, but he didn't know that Duan Shilin and Chu Lingshu were shocked.
"Long Ci, do you know what you're talking about?" Chu Lingshu said uneasily.
And after Duan Shilin understood what he had just said, he immediately asked: "What does it mean to fight back to the original form, and the murderer is not a human?" ”
Li Changci chuckled and said, "Isn't it true that the prince has already made a decision?" Otherwise, why would you ask the people from Ziyang Mountain to come and help? ”
Duan Shilin's thoughts were pointed out, and he was suddenly a little speechless.
Li Changci stretched out a hand in front of the two of them, and a box appeared in his hand in an instant.
This method of summoning objects out of thin air really surprised the two of them, but their eyes were locked on the box, and they secretly felt that what was inside would open the door to a new world.
