Volume 2 Rebirth Chapter 067 Middle-aged Taoist priest

Shang Xiaodie's rebuke attracted everyone's attention, and even the middle-aged Taoist priest next to her looked at her in surprise.

When Shang Xiaodie came in, someone had noticed her. But because everyone was talking about the tragedy of Lijiazhuang enthusiastically, everyone did not show their attitude towards her.

At this time, Shang Xiaodie unexpectedly came out, which surprised everyone, and they were a little surprised.

One of the middle-aged men burst out laughing and said, "Miss Shang, we're just here to eat and drink and gossip, and we don't have any malicious intent. Besides, then Li Qingshan has nothing to do with the girl, so the girl shouldn't be angry about this matter, right?"

Others chimed in.

Shang Xiaodie sneered: "Don't talk about the afterlife, this is the greatest respect for the deceased." There are gods within three feet, and you are really not afraid of retribution?"

A young man said with a hint of teasing: "Miss Shang, with you, we are not afraid." Oh, by the way, so many people have died in Lijia Village, there must be no grievances, why don't Miss Shang help them overtime?"

One of the old men immediately glared at the young man, and said with a calm face, "How can anyone talk to a merchant girl like this?"

The young man immediately closed his mouth, bowed his head to eat and drink, and stopped talking, but still had a smile on his face.

The old man hurriedly said to Shang Xiaodie with a smiling face: "Miss Shang, he is a stunned person and is not sensible, don't be surprised." ”

Shang Xiaodie "snorted" from her nose and ignored them, at this time, she was not in the mood to eat, so she dropped a few coins and left.

As soon as Shang Xiaodie left the restaurant, she was stopped.

Shang Xiaodie looked back and saw that it was the middle-aged Taoist priest.

Shang Xiaodie then noticed that this Taoist priest, who was about fifty years old, slightly chubby, and extremely kind-looking, was walking towards her with a smile.

Shang Xiaodie asked in surprise, "You called me?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled and said, "Yes, may I ask if the girl's surname is Shang?"

Shang Xiaodie didn't answer him directly, but asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest was still smiling, and he continued to ask, "What is the relationship between the girl and the merchant fort?"

Shang Xiaodie's face suddenly changed, thinking that he was the one who was looking for the merchant fort, so she said unhappily, "It's okay. You're looking for the wrong person. ”

Shang Xiaodie said, turning and leaving.

The Taoist priest blocked Shang Xiaodie's path all of a sudden.

This Taoist priest is so fast!

This was Shang's first reaction. Because when she faced him just now, there were still five steps between the two. As soon as she turned around, he immediately appeared in front of her. She didn't even see him move.

Shocked, Shang reflexively took a step back and looked at the middle-aged Taoist priest with ghost-like eyes.

And the middle-aged Taoist priest still had that demeanor, with a kind smile on his slightly chubby face.

"Who are you?"

Shang Xiaodie asked, her tone visibly trilling.

Connoisseurs will know if there is one as soon as they make a move. Although Shang Xiaodie's cultivation was extremely low, this did not affect her judgment of this middle-aged Taoist priest, she knew that this Taoist priest was extremely powerful.

The middle-aged Taoist priest said with a smile: "Miss Shang, don't be afraid, Poor Dao has no malicious intentions, she just wants to know something from the girl." ”

This is on the street of Xianju Town, with a restaurant behind him, and although Shang Xiaodie is surprised, she is not very afraid. But what she didn't understand was, what was this middle-aged Taoist priest going to ask her?

"What are you asking?" Shang Xiaodie looked at the middle-aged Taoist priest warily.

The smile on the middle-aged Taoist priest's face suddenly disappeared, and a pair of sharp eyes forced Shang Xiaodie.

The sudden change in the middle-aged Taoist's expression made Shang Xiaodie's heart tremble, and she couldn't help but take a step back, and hurriedly asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Do you know about the massacre in Lijia Village?"

To Shang Xiaodie's surprise, this is what the middle-aged Taoist priest asked? Could it be that this Taoist priest came to investigate this case on purpose? What is his origin? Could it be that he is from the Cloud Gate Sect?

At this moment, Shang Xiaodie's mind turned several thoughts, and finally determined that this middle-aged Taoist priest was probably from the Cloud Gate Sect and had come to investigate the killing of Li Qingshan's family.

At this time, Shang Xiaodie suddenly had an urge to tell him about Li Kun, but she finally held back, after all, she was not sure of the other party's details. In addition, there is another point that makes Shang Xiaodie quite puzzled, even if this Taoist priest wants to find out the news, why is he looking for her?

Fluttershy, who has been discriminated against since childhood, learns to read people's hearts at a very young age, and she is far more wary of strangers than any other stranger. At this time, the behavior of the middle-aged Taoist priest made her unable to guess, so she naturally wanted to have one more mind.

For this reason, Shang Xiaodie also planned to probe the other party's bottom, so she said calmly, "I know." ”

"What do you know?" a hint of surprise flashed in the middle-aged Taoist's eyes.

Shang Xiaodie pursed her lips and said, "Didn't you hear that just now?" the restaurant is talking about this, if you are interested, you can go to them and ask, I just heard from them." ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest snorted coldly and said, "The little girl is very dishonest. ”

Although Shang Xiaodie knew that this middle-aged Taoist priest was quite powerful, she believed that in broad daylight, he should not do anything to herself, so although she was a little scared at the moment when she was suddenly stopped by him, she quickly settled down, and instead had the idea of testing the other party's details.

Shang Xiaodie pretended to be naΓ―ve and asked, "Why am I not honest? Do you think I should know something?" The massacre of Lijia Village, whether it is a vendetta guessed by drunkards or a crime committed by a bandit, is a tragic and bloody incident. How can I know anything about a little girl? Could it be that you still suspect that this girl has committed a crime?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest sneered: "What a little girl with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, poor Dao will not shed tears when he sees you when he sees the coffin." You have obviously been to the scene of the tragedy in Lijiazhuang, but why did you hide the facts from Poor Dao?"

Shang Xiaodie was taken aback and blurted out, "How do you know I've been?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest sneered again, then took out a strand of silk thread from his arms, and said, "The girl should know this, right?"

Shang Xiaodie saw that the silk thread was exactly the same as the decoration of the Huizi inlaid on the edge of her backpack, and she immediately realized that the silk thread must have been accidentally torn off when she was cooking Li Kun at that time, so she left it at the scene for the Taoist priest to pick up. It can be seen that this Taoist priest is really investigating this matter, and he has already been to the scene.

What is his origin? Could he really be a member of the Cloud Gate Sect?

Shang Xiaodie was secretly suspicious in her heart, but her face looked disapproving, so she had to admit: "This girl did go, and it was already a month after the tragedy. Even so, what can you do? You are not a yamen catcher, why should this girl tell you?"

The middle-aged Taoist priest's face sank suddenly.

Shang Xiaodie realized that the majesty of this Taoist priest was also very scary, which shows that the previous kindness was an illusion.

For this reason, Shang Xiaodie was inevitably a little timid in her heart, but she stubbornly said, "Who are you?

The middle-aged Taoist priest even admitted very simply: "Not bad. Now the girl should know that the poor road has the right to ask, right?"

Shang Xiaodie's heart suddenly became complicated, and she couldn't get an idea whether to tell him about Li Kun. However, in the end, it was decided not to say it for the time being. However, since he has admitted that he has been there, there must be a valid reason, otherwise, it is normal for the other party to suspect him.

For this reason, Shang Xiaodie said very calmly: "Since you are a member of the Cloud Gate Sect, you naturally have the right to intervene. However, you are looking for the wrong person. This girl did go to the scene of the tragedy in Lijiazhuang, and that was almost a month after the tragedy. You should have heard what the drunkard said. I won't hide it from you, this girl likes to deal with ghosts, and often does things that go beyond the wrongs. Hundreds of people in Lijia Village were killed, and there were countless unjust souls, and this girl naturally didn't want those unjust souls to be left without rest, or even harm the world, so she deliberately went to do that transcendent thing. ”

Shang Xiaodie observed the middle-aged Taoist priest's expression as she spoke, and when she saw that the other party's complexion eased slightly, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and continued: "The silk thread you found in your hand is indeed the thing left behind by my backpack. However, you should also know that the tragedy has nothing to do with me. I heard that when the tragedy happened, it rained for a day and a night, and all the tracks were washed away by the rainstorm, and you found this thread. This is enough to show that I went to the scene of the tragedy after the fact. ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest frowned, his attitude suddenly calmed down, and asked, "What did that girl find at that time?"

Shang Xiaodie sighed, her face showing unbearable expression, this is not pretending, and said, "This girl only saw that the village was full of scattered white bones, and there was not a single intact corpse. After all, Lijia Village was too remote, and few outsiders set foot in it, so after the incident, it was reported to Xianju Town. For a month, those corpses naturally became a delicacy for the beasts. It'sβ€”"

Shang Xiaodie said this, her face was unbearable, and she couldn't go on.

Naturally, the middle-aged Taoist priest had already seen these scenes, and there was no need for Shang Xiaodie to say more.

At this point, the middle-aged Taoist priest fell into silence. Because, with his years of reading people, he believes that what Shang Xiaodie said is basically the truth.

Seeing that he was silent, Shang Xiaodie naturally didn't know what he was thinking, and after some thought, Shang Xiaodie decided not to divulge Li Kun's affairs for the time being. Because, after all, she didn't know the origin of this middle-aged Taoist priest, and she couldn't believe him just by his own words. There is still a sense of security for self-protection.

In addition, Shang Xiaodie also felt that if the Cloud Gate Sect was really investigating this matter, then there would definitely be a real big move in the future, and it would not be too late to hand over Li Kun after they could really confirm their identities at that time.

"Can I go?"

Shang Xiaodie deliberately made an impatient look and asked.

The middle-aged Taoist priest immediately showed a kind look on his face and said, "Of course, thank you, girl." However, if necessary, Poor Dao may go to the girl. ”

"Whatever. ”

Shang Xiaodie said in her mouth, but thought to herself, "If you are really from the Cloud Gate Sect, even if you don't come to me, I will go to you." ”

After Shang Xiaodie finished speaking, she walked away.
