Chapter 141: Only Him
It's just a day's work. Mingyue returned from the south gate. The matter that Qingchen asked her to investigate has also come to fruition. And she still has a prescription in her hand.
"Landlord, please see. This is what I said based on Nightfall and Grip Yu. The results of the search at the South City Gate. What is written above is the medicine that Zhao Yan caught. Mingyue handed the prescription in her hand to Qingchen. And then said.
Qingchen took the prescription from Mingyue's hand. I looked at it carefully. The further down the look. The look in his eyes became deeper and deeper. The uneasiness in my heart is getting stronger and stronger. By the time she had finished reading all the names of the herbs on the prescription. I couldn't help frowning. A deep sigh.
"The landlord. What happened. But there's something wrong with this prescription. "Tomorrow is next to me. He also asked.
"Do you remember that I read some medical books in Huai Jin's room the other day? Qingchen didn't answer the rhetorical question.
"Yes. At that time, the landlord deliberately went to Huai Jin's room. I want to see what kind of medical books she reads. There are still some big gains. Tomorrow nodded. Said.
"Most of the herbs written on this prescription. I've seen it in the medical books in Huai Jin's room before. And they were all annotated by Huai Jin. Qingchen said. "I've said that before. The prescription written by Huai Jin is the dosage of an adult man. The prescription that Mingyue got back. Coincide with. ”
Qingchen's voice fell. Mingyue and Tomorrow were stunned. They glanced at each other. At the same time, doubts arose in my heart. Don't know what to say.
"So what to do now. Huai Jin had no reason to hurt the landlord. But she has something to hide from the landlord. Tomorrow said.
"Call the Nightshade. Qingchen thought about it. He commanded.
"Do you want Nightshade to know about this? In this way. Surely Grip Yu knows. Mingyue said.
"But this can only be done by Nightfall. It is useless for any of you to go. Qingchen said. "Because no one can do the light of the night. He was the only one who could catch up with the pigeon. ”
Qingchen finished speaking. Mingyue and Tomorrow understood what Qingchen wanted to do.
Huai Jin's current contact with Feng Xiran relies on that carrier pigeon. And that carrier pigeon was fast. can go back and forth between Feng Xiran and Huai Jin in one day. Ordinary people can't catch up. Only people like Nightfall who are good at light skills may be able to give it a try. Let Nightshade follow the direction the dove flies. You can find out where Feng Xiran is. At the same time, you can know. What is the secret between Huai Jin and Feng Xiran.
Then his subordinates went and called him. Tomorrow nodded. Then turn around and leave. I'm going to find Nightfall.
Nightshade They arrived in the capital of the Celestial Star Kingdom yesterday. Half a day off plus a whole night. The spirit is also recovered. Hear Qingchen's command. Although I don't know why Qingchen is staring at Huai Jin. But he did as he was told.
The connection between Huai Jin and Feng Xiran has never been severed every day. And the time is also very punctual. It's just that Qingchen will let Huai Jin see the letter tomorrow. So he got the letter and read it for himself. Huai Jin naturally didn't know about this matter.
The light work of the night has always been praised by everyone. And it is precisely because of his light work. So even if his martial arts are not very high. But it can also accomplish a lot of things that others can't. For example, chasing pigeons.
Huai Jin tied the written letter to the pigeon's leg. Then let go. But the next second the pigeon left her sight, she was caught by Tomorrow. After Qingchen read what Huai Jin wrote. Only then did he restore the letter on the pigeon's lap to its original state. Let it go. Let the Nightfall follow the doves. Find where the wind is.
The night did not dare to delay the matter of clearing the dust. The pigeons did not dare to relax for a moment. But he saw the pigeon flying towards the southeast of the capital of the Heavenly Star Kingdom. It happened to be near the city gate where he had seen Zhao Yan before.
But I thought about it for a while. Nightshade moved on. Because you have to follow the pigeons. So Nightfall doesn't take the usual path. Fly directly over the rooftops of every house in the capital. Everyone saw a flash of figure. I haven't seen the night dead yet. and disappeared.
After a day of tracking. Nightfall followed the pigeon to a valley to the southwest. The entrance to the valley is not a rock. It's not a tall tree either. It's a bamboo forest. The green forest and green bamboo spread out. Endless. There is no end in sight.
Just as Nightfall was about to follow the pigeon. But I saw that the bamboo forest suddenly seemed to have changed. The road that had appeared in front of him before was suddenly gone. The originally neat bamboo forest also looks cluttered. Nightfall was just a few steps. I felt that something was wrong with the bamboo forest.
Because he felt that this bamboo forest was moving. From his first step into the bamboo forest. It doesn't matter which direction he turns. The sight in front of me all looked the same. Because the bamboo forest seemed to be spinning with him. And the distance between each bamboo and the night is the same. No matter how he moves. Nothing has changed.
After discovering this phenomenon. Nightfall quickly remembered the time when he followed Qingchen to the Holy Land. Passing through the miasma forest. It seems that trees are also used to create formations. Countless formations are created using the order of the trees. There is to kill. Some are just trying to trap people who have entered the forest.
Nightshade thought for a moment. His own martial arts are not high. He was also the first to be injured in the miasma forest before. Facing such a strange bamboo forest. Don't dare to break in easily. So he had to settle for the next best. Go back and ask Qingchen for help first. After all, Qingchen knows more about these.
Maybe this bamboo forest is just trying to trap someone else. There was no killing. Maybe it was because the night died and didn't dare to act rashly and didn't touch the killing array. Anyway, when the night goes out. It's still not as difficult as it seems. Although he doesn't understand any of this. But after the last time I passed through the Miasma Forest. I still learned some fur from Qingchen.
He knew that some things were actually tricks. He closed his eyes. Hard-headed, he performed light skills and rushed outside. There was a master and some branches in front of him. I didn't have time to do anything in such a deadly way as the night death. So he let the Nightshade break out.
Naturally, Nightshade was wounded. Because these are not ordinary bamboos after all. But fortunately, he didn't go far when he entered the bamboo forest. Just a few steps away. Even the injuries weren't serious. It's still enough to support him back in the house.
Qingchen and others are a little anxious. Because she didn't know what would happen to Nightfall. If the Nightfall is discovered by the wind. Then Nightshade must not be able to find anything.
Just when Qingchen was worried about the night. I heard some messy footsteps outside. Qingchen was taken aback. Get up from your chair. Look outside. But I saw tomorrow walking in with the night dead. And there were still blood stains on the corners of Nightfall's mouth that had never been wiped clean.
"Something happened. You're hurt. "Qingchen saw the night. Immediately asked. Reach out and feel the pulse of Nightfall.
The pulse is slightly disturbed. There seems to be true qi running around. I think I had internal injuries. Fortunately, it's not serious. Qingchen had a judgment in his heart. And he stretched out his hand. Attached to the back of the Nightshade. Deliver true qi to the night to heal wounds.
Nightshade wanted to refuse. But the dust removal action is too fast. It's already begun. If this time resists. I'm afraid that Qingchen will be injured by the backlash of internal forces. Therefore, Nightshade can only accept Qingchen to heal himself.
Tomorrow, I will stand by the side of the two of them and protect the Dharma for the two of them. I don't know how long it took. Qingchen felt that the internal breath of the disorder in the nightshade's body began to slowly stabilize. When the chaotic true qi was gradually suppressed. Only then did he slowly collect the internal force. Pranayama for a moment. Then open your eyes.
"The landlord. Subordinates are incompetent. The pigeon was lost. "After the night recuperation. Then he said to Qingchen.
"It's not that easy to know about it. I thought it would be better to send you than anyone else. Because only you can do it. Qingchen said. "But I didn't expect you to get hurt. ”
"This little hurt doesn't get in the way. Nightshade said. The subordinate followed the pigeon all the way. All the way to a valley southwest of the capital. The valley is not very far from the capital. I think that's why the pigeons are able to go back and forth in one day. There was a bamboo grove at the entrance to that valley. It seems to be a formation as well. Much like the last time we encountered it in the Miasma Forest. The subordinates don't know how to break the formation. This injury was suffered when he broke out of the formation. ”
"It's good that you're alert. Didn't break in. If you find something wrong, come out in time. Only suffered such a minor injury. Qingchen sighed. "There are many formations in this world. And most of them are very subtle. Even me and Ning Chen. I don't dare to say that all of them can be cracked. If you rush in. I'm afraid it's not like it is now. ”
"But the landlord. Isn't the back of the bamboo forest the owner of the Wind Building? Could he have sat idly by while he watched Nightfall get hurt? "Tomorrow I don't understand.
"He won't. That's why he didn't let the bamboo forest start the killing array. Let the night die and never return. Qingchen said. "Looks. It's not a small matter for Brother Feng to hide from me. He actually used the bamboo forest array created by Mo Senior. ”
"The landlord knows what this array is. Nightshade asked. "So. Can it be broken. ”
"It can be broken. But I don't know. When I broke the formation. Walk into the valley. What will be seen. Qingchen said.
"Today I trespassed into the bamboo forest. Will the owner of the Wind House be aware of it? If the Wind House Lord finds out. Then transfer. It's not like the landlord can't find anything. Nightshade asked.
"You have a point. Qingchen nodded. "I'll go to the valley outside the city now. Brother Feng must not have imagined that I would kill the horse pistol so quickly. Even if he wants to transfer. I can only be blocked outside. ”
"The landlord. I'll go with you. Tomorrow said.
"I'm with that, too. Nightshade spoke.
"Nightfall. You don't have to go. Take care of your injuries at home. You've just returned. Just let you hurt. Shake Yu may not know how to blame me. Qingchen said. Rejected Nightshade's offer. And then with tomorrow. According to the route of Nightfall. Head towards the valley on the outskirts of the southwest.
The bamboo forest outside the valley has returned to its previous appearance after the night died. Feng Xiran didn't notice anything wrong outside. Because he was dealing with the medicinal herbs that Zhao Yan had bought back.
