Chapter 106: The First Clue

This puzzle that was still troubled asked, and Xu Qi'an regretted it in the next second.

It's not that there's anything wrong with the question itself, it's that the way he's asking questions is inappropriate........ He exposed himself.

Lina No. 5 didn't know that he was No. 3, and what Xu Qi'an told her was that she was a peripheral member of the Heaven and Earth Society. But the question just now, without a doubt, exposed his identity.

Hmm, it's all Li Miaozhen, which gives me the illusion that the identity of No. 3 has been exposed.......... It also has something to do with my current state of confusion and pain, and I am not clear and rational enough......... Xu Qi'an's expression was slightly stiff, and he looked at Lina cautiously.

"No way!"

Lina shouted and waved her arms excitedly: "I promised Granny Tian Gu that I couldn't tell this matter, and I couldn't tell others that I heard the news from her." ”

Oh, the news came from Granny Tian Gu........ Wait, she, hasn't reacted to my werewolf yet?!

Talent........ Xu Qi'an looked at Lina, his eyes were full of admiration.

"This is your freedom, and a gentleman never makes it difficult for others. ”

Xu Qi'an bowed his head, with a posture that he didn't intend to force, but after Lina breathed a sigh of relief, he said lightly: "Let's sum up the expenses of your stay in the Xu Mansion." ”

He first glanced at Lina's beautiful little dress, and said, "My sister has made you two pieces of clothing, which are made of fine silk and satin, which are given by the emperor, and count ten taels of silver each, plus labor costs, and the two clothes are a total of thirty taels of silver."

"The accommodation fee is three cents a night, you have lived at home for several days, count it as three taels. Then it's time to eat, Miss Lina, you don't need me to go into detail about your own amount of food, for for so many days, you have eaten a total of forty taels of silver from me.

"Now, please pay the expenses, a total of one hundred and twenty taels. ”

Lina was stunned, looked at him stunned, and said, "You are so powerful, you can calculate the total amount of silver so quickly." ”

Hehe, that's all my nonsense......... Do you have to be careful to fool an idiot like you? You can't figure it out anyway....... No, I was also led crooked by her.

Xu Qi'an patted the edge of the bed and said loudly: "Understand my point." ”

The little black skin in southern Xinjiang said aggrievedly: "But I can't break my trust with others, and I must abide by what I promise others." ”

"Very well, then please pay the money, or get out of my house. Xu Qi'an said fiercely.

"I ......." Lina's eyes were red, feeling that she was being bullied as a foreigner, and she was lonely, so she stomped her feet and said:

"I'll just go, I'll go to the Golden Lotus Daoist, even if I starve to death, die outside, and live on the streets, I won't betray the Heavenly Gu Mother-in-law." ”

"Wait. ”

Xu Qi'an called out to her and made a final effort: "Mother-in-law Tiangu is in southern Xinjiang, right, I am in the capital, the two places are tens of thousands of miles apart, if you don't say it, I won't say it, how can it be regarded as a dishonest person." ”

"Is that so?" questioned Lina.

"Of course," Xu Qi'an nodded solemnly: "It's like going to the church to sleep with a woman, it's a prostitute." But if you don't give money, it's not a prostitute. Right?"

Lina was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and felt that what Xu Ningyan said was reasonable.

Xu Qi'an was kind and persuasive: "Besides, you are in a foreign land, lonely and helpless, what is it to sacrifice a little credibility for survival, no one will blame you." ”

Lina hesitated and relented.

Xu Qi'an gave the final blow: "Guiyue Lou has three days of food, you can eat enough." ”

Grunt...... Lina swallowed her saliva secretly and said crisply: "Deal, but you swear, you can't tell others." ”

Xu Qi'an bowed.

Lina turned and trotted to the door, opened it, poked her head out and looked for a moment to make sure no one was eavesdropping, and then returned to the table with confidence, and said:

"It's just last time, No. 3 asked him through the fragments of the book from the ground why he has a friend who often picks up money, our Gu clan's Heavenly Gu Department, knows astronomy and geography, looks at the stars up, looks down at mountains and rivers, knows everything.

"I went to ask the leader of the Heavenly Gu Department, the Heavenly Gu Mother-in-law, and she said that the guy who picked up the silver must be himself, not a friend.......

Suddenly, Lina's voice paused, she looked at Xu Qi'an in a daze, her eyes widened a little, revealing an extremely shocked expression, pointing at Xu Qi'an, and screaming:

"You, you....... Is it number three?!"

Xu Qi'an arched his hand in his heart, and said expressionlessly: "Yes, I am the number three, but I promised the Golden Lotus Daoist that my identity will not be revealed." Okay now, we're not trustworthy, so it's not a big deal. ”

Lina looked at him blankly for a long time, and finally accepted the fact that Xu Qi'an was the number three, and felt that everyone was untrustworthy, and the guilt in her heart suddenly eased a lot.

"Granny Tian Gu said that twenty years ago, two thieves stole very valuable things from a large family, and some of the big families have reacted, and some have not yet noticed.

"Granny Tian Gu also asked me, where are you. I said that you were in the capital, and hearing this answer, Granny Tian Gu was incredulous, and seemed to think that you should never be in the capital. ”

"You wait first. ”

Xu Qi'an interrupted Lina, leaned on the high pillow, was silent for a cup of tea, and said slowly: "You continue." ”

"Later, before I left southern Xinjiang, Granny Tian Gu told me that one of the two thieves was her husband. There is a legend in our southern Xinjiang that one day the Gu God will wake up from the abyss and destroy the world, turning the world of Kyushu into a world with only Gu.

"This legend has been deduced from generation to generation by the prophets of the Heavenly Gu Sect, and it is a future that will definitely happen. In order to change the future, Ah Gong came up with a way and left southern Xinjiang. Then he never came back.

"The natal Gu he left in the Gu clan was depleted, which heralded his death.

"Granny Tian Gu also told me that that thing was about to be born, and she foresaw that I would also be involved in it, so she asked me to come to the capital to seek opportunities. ”

After Lina finished speaking, except for the existence of the Seven Absolute Gu, which was not revealed, everything else was said.

The Seven Absolute Gu was entrusted by the Heavenly Gu mother-in-law to give it to someone who was destined, and Lina thought that it had nothing to do with Xu Qi'an, so there was no need to reveal it to him.

"I see....... Lina, you go out first, I want to be alone. Xu Qi'an instructed: "Today's conversation cannot be leaked to anyone. ”

"Hmm!"

Lina nodded vigorously, walked to the door of the room briskly, opened the door, and turned around and said, "I'll take Lingyin to Guiyue Tower first, and you remember to settle the bill later." ”

“?”

Even when he was in such a bad mood, a question mark still appeared in Xu Qi'an's mind.

He looked at Lina in amazement: "No, it's just after lunch, right?"

"Later, I'll take the bell and take a horse step, won't my stomach be hungry? Lina waved her hand and left the room.

Beg the bean sack, do you two want to eat me in one go? Can I withdraw my promise......... Xu Qi'an opened his mouth, feeling distressed and unable to breathe.

Lina happily ran out of the room, thinking about the dishes in Guiyue Building, and quickly put the matter of dishonesty behind her.

As for the truth that Xu Qi'an is the number three, her thoughts are that it doesn't matter who the number three is, it has nothing to do with her, just be happy, why think so much.

Replaced by No. 4 Chu Yuanzhen, he must be in the process of brainstorming now.

Passing by the east wing, I heard the mother of the Xu family whispering to her eldest daughter: "Lingyue, have you heard strange sounds at night recently?"

"No, I don't. ”

But my mother always felt that at night, there were people whispering outside the window, and sometimes there was the sound of tiles turning on the roof. Do you think the house is haunted again? ”

"Mother, you are talking nonsense, people will be scared and can't sleep at night. Then I'll go to my eldest brother tonight and ask him to accompany me at the door of the room. ”

"Mother is not talking nonsense, you don't know, Suzuyin will go to the yard alone for a while after dinner every day, and ask her what she is doing, she said that she saw a lot of ghosts and wanted to fry them, but she couldn't catch them. I heard that children's eyes can see unclean things. ”

"Mother, are you here for the menstrual period, suspicious. There is a father, an eldest brother and a second brother in the family, what the hell dares to come to our house to make trouble. Besides, the Holy Maiden of Tianzong is at home, what are you afraid of. ”

"Makes sense. ”

This was reasonable, and the aunt was convinced, and then said: "Lingyin also told me that Susu girl is a ghost." ”

"Suzune is really rude and will offend the guests. ”

"yes, so I beat her up. ”

Lina thought about it and decided not to tell the mother and daughter the truth, they were afraid, she walked around the house and found the apprentice hiding in the flower garden and sucking chicken leg bones.

"What are you hiding here for. Lina pinched her waist and said angrily, "Do you want to be lazy again?"

Xu Lingyin glanced at her, silently threw away the chicken leg bones, then covered her stomach and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?" said Lina.

"I ate a chicken leg from an unknown source, and I'm poisoned now, and I can't take a horse. Xu Lingyin announced loudly.

"Nonsense, this chicken leg bone was hidden during your lunch. Lina wittily dismantled her.

Xu Lingyin was taken aback, she didn't expect her plan to be seen clearly by the master, she was worthy of the master, and she was indeed smarter than her. So he had an idea, and suddenly said:

"It's the leftover chicken leg that the eldest brother eats, and there is his saliva on it, and the eldest brother's saliva is poisonous, so I can't tie the horse step. ”

"Your eldest brother's saliva is not poisonous. Lina demolished her again.

"You haven't eaten your eldest brother's saliva, how do you know that his saliva is not poisonous. Xu Lingyin was not convinced.

Lina was stunned and didn't know how to refute, so she beat Xu Lingyin.

It is only natural for the master to beat the apprentice.

This apprentice is a bit smart, if he doesn't fight now, he won't be able to control it in a few years!

..........

In the room, Xu Qi'an endured a headache, sat at the desk, and wrote four words on rice paper: Twenty years ago.

He didn't want to do analysis and reasoning in a very bad state, because it would cause too many mistakes and omissions, but it was about his biggest secret, and Xu Qi'an didn't want to wait for a moment.

Rubbing his eyebrows, he took a deep breath and wrote down the second sentence: Two thieves.

After a few seconds of silence, he wrote the third sentence: There is only one left.

There should be no need to doubt this, it is impossible for the Heavenly Gu Mother-in-law to make a mistake in judgment, as the current leader of the Heavenly Gu Department, this Mother-in-law will not make a mistake in this kind of matter.

One of the two thieves has already died.

Finally, he wrote on rice paper: Gu God, the end of the world!

He got up and walked to the round table, poured a glass of cold water, drank it slowly, and after drinking, he returned to his desk and wrote five words behind "Twenty years ago":

Battle of Shanhaiguan.

"On the official ship returning to the capital from Yunzhou, when I woke up, I dreamed of the battle of Shanhaiguan and saw Wei Yuan when I was young........ This is very unscientific, because I was born 20 years ago, and it is impossible for me to experience the Battle of Shanhaiguan, so it is impossible to have relevant memory fragments. ”

Xu Qi'an's eyes flashed slightly, and behind the "two thieves", he wrote the word "luck".

"Granny Tian Gu insisted that I was the one who picked up the silver, and thought that I was related to the two thieves back then, and what was the biggest secret in me?

"So, back then, the two thieves stole Dafeng's luck? In the ancient tomb, the monk Shenshu said that the luck on my body was refined.........

Xu Qi'an dipped in ink, and after "there is only one left", he wrote: "Yunzhou Warlock?"

The reason for the question mark is because of uncertainty.

"Dean Zhao Shou said that the three forces related to luck are Confucianism, warlocks, and dynasties. First of all, excluding the dynasty, I am most likely not from the royal family. Secondly, excluding Confucianism, the strongest part of the Confucian system is to follow the law, rather than using luck.

"Warlocks alone are experts at playing with luck. I suspect that the first and second rank of Warlock are luck-related professions. ”

So who stole Daebon's luck and refined it and hid it in his body?

Xu Qi'an used to think that he was a prisoner, because he was clearly arranged by the prison, but now he has doubts.

Could the prison be a thief? No one in the entire dynasty is better at playing luck than him, he really wants to steal the luck of the Great Feng, and he needs to conspire with the people of the Heavenly Gu Department in Southern Xinjiang?

That's too much to look down on this first-class warlock.

"Compared to the prison, I suspect that it is the warlock who appeared in Yunzhou, the mysterious warlock who is at least a third grade. He conspired with the previous leader of the Heavenly Gu Department to steal Dafeng's luck.

"It was precisely because of the conspiracy between the two that they briefly concealed the luck stolen from the prison 20 years ago, and the major event that happened 20 years ago was only the Battle of Shanhaiguan, a large-scale battle that involved all forces in Kyushu and invested as many as one million troops.

"I saw the Battle of Shanhaiguan in my dream can also be corroborated, although I did not participate in this battle, but it is likely that this is not my memory, but the picture brought by the recovery of luck?

"Why is luck on me, I'm just an ordinary Xu family lang. There's no reason to give me luck.......

"Such an important thing was given to me, but it has been silent for twenty years, and it was really given to me for nothing?"

Suddenly, Xu Qi'an's body trembled, his pupils contracted violently, he stood squirting for a long time, and his arms trembled slightly and wrote three more words on the rice paper:

"Tax and silver case!"

.........

PS: I'm sorry.,The leader of the alliance who thanked me yesterday was "right-handed".,What's going on.,It's all ghosting when I look at the computer lately.。
