Chapter Eighty-Seven: Golden Yang Grass
Gu Qingxue shook her head like a rattle and said, "No." She's really gone. I've already gone to her room to find it. She's not there. Yesterday at dinner, she and I had made an appointment to come to my house today. She's just been promoted to a late-stage Qi Refining Cultivator, and I want her to guide me well. But the man was gone. ”
Zhang Feiyang heard her repeatedly mention "gone", and the doubts in his heart became heavier, but he was never sure whether Sister Qiao was really missing, but looking at Gu Qingxue's nervous appearance, she was obviously not joking.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Feiyang gently patted Gu Qingxue's shoulder and asked her to stay here to rest for a while, and then, leaving the room alone, went to inquire about the situation.
Gu Qingxue saw that Zhang Feiyang was willing to help, so she let go of the heart she had been carrying, nodded, and watched Zhang Feiyang leave.
When Zhang Feiyang went outside, the first thing he did was to go to Sister Qiao's room to have a look.
Because, he wanted to know how true what Gu Qingxue said.
If Sister Qiao has already sorted out her clothes or quilts in Sister Qiao's room, it is most likely that Sister Qiao has gone out for something.
Then it should be that Gu Qingxue is too sensitive, which is not a big deal.
When the time comes, if you ask the master to talk about your dreams, you will definitely know where Sister Qiao is.
But if it's the opposite.
Sister Qiao's room was in chaos, the quilt was not folded, or the tea was not finished, and there was such a room that was obviously left by accident, so Sister Qiao's disappearance was eight or nine points true.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang held the mentality that it was better or not the latter, quickened his pace, and came to the courtyard of Tan Mengjia.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that the girl who was guarding the door was already standing at the door again, and his heart suddenly moved, and he walked up with a smile and took the initiative to ask the girl.
"Little sister. I ask you one thing. Do you know Qiaoyun in this courtyard, Sister Qiao?"
After yesterday's incident, this girl has already known Zhang Feiyang, and when she sees Zhang Feiyang again, she naturally will not still have that cold attitude.
She smiled and nodded, two sweet dimples appeared on her face, as if she was very familiar with Zhang Feiyang, she actually jumped a little, hooked Zhang Feiyang's wrist with one hand, and said coquettishly: "Senior brother." Morning. Sister Qiaoyun, how could I not know each other. Do you have anything to do with her?"
"That's right. Otherwise, I'm looking for you?" Zhang Feiyang smiled and touched her head, rolled his eyes, and said.
The girl giggled, her face turned red, and she suddenly twisted her head, as if she was very dissatisfied, snorted, and said, "Who wants you to come and see me?" Brother. You look so ordinary, I don't want you to look for me. I only like handsome boys. Senior brother, you're still too bad. ”
Seeing her innocent and cute appearance, Zhang Feiyang's depressed mood relaxed a lot, and continued to ask her about Sister Qiao.
"Don't worry. Senior brother, I am self-aware. I won't beat you up. That's right. I just heard that Sister Qiao is out, is there such a thing?"
The girl shook her head and said, "No." Sister Qiao has been in the room all the time. Do you want me to take you there?"
Zhang Feiyang was slightly stunned, could it be that Gu Qingxue was lying to herself?
But on the surface, he still kept a smile, shook his head, and after praising the girl a few words, he entered the courtyard and went to the residence of Sister Qiao, whom the girl said was designated.
Sister Qiao's residence is on the east side, and Zhang Feiyang can see it through the huge square in the middle.
At this time, the gate in front of the courtyard was closed, and with a slight push by Zhang Feiyang, the gate was immediately opened.
It turned out that the door was not locked at all, but it was just brought up at random, and it looked like the door was locked.
This made Zhang Feiyang a little curious.
If Sister Qiao really lives in the courtyard, why is the gate of the courtyard not closed?
He shook his head, feeling a fog in his mind for a moment, unable to figure out anything, and quickened his pace and walked in.
The courtyard is not large, Zhang Feiyang crossed a rockery, and then crossed a small bridge to a small wooden bungalow.
The bungalow also has only one door, which is still closed.
Zhang Feiyang arrived at the door, and wanted to knock on the door and shout, but the experience just now made him deliberately glance at the door lock.
Really.
Got the same result.
The door was still unlocked, just hidden.
The more Zhang Feiyang thought about it, the more strange he felt.
Even if Sister Qiao really went out, then she should lock the door when she went out, right? But the girl at the door said that Sister Qiao didn't go out. Since you haven't gone out, the door in the courtyard is not closed, and the door in this house must be closed, right?
Two doors in a row are not closed.
Why?
Zhang Feiyang was a little confused, with doubts, lowered his voice, carefully pushed open the door, and walked in.
Inside the room is the hall, no different from the room where Tan Meng and Gu Qingxue are, there is a table in the middle, with various tea sets and some books on it.
There are a few chairs against the wall on either side of the table.
There is also an ordinary landscape painting hanging on the wall.
Other than that, there is nothing else.
But a hidden door in the room instantly attracted Zhang Feiyang's attention.
The door was located northwest of the house.
Zhang Feiyang checked the other rooms that had no door and determined that it should be Sister Qiao's boudoir.
But just when he was about to go over to see what was in the boudoir, the hidden door creaked, opened from the inside, and came out a young woman about 30 years old with a good demeanor.
Since Tan Meng has given up this place to Sister Qiao to live in, why did she come to Sister Qiao's room for a boudoir?
It's a pity that there is too little information at present, Zhang Feiyang still has no results after thinking about it, and he is still a little blank and slightly in a daze.
At this moment, Tan Meng had already noticed Zhang Feiyang, paused, and almost didn't throw away the broom in his hand.
She stabilized for a while, then came back to her senses, regained her usual maturity and charm, smiled at Zhang Feiyang, and asked, "Zhang Feiyang." Why are you here? This is a place for female disciples to rest. Do you have any bad intentions for Senior Sister Qiao?"
Zhang Feiyang didn't think about it before he asked, he gave the other party an army first, he was a little flustered, his face was red, he shook his head and shook his hand, he didn't know how to explain, so that Tan Meng couldn't stop laughing.
After a while, seeing that Tan Meng had laughed enough, the door of the boudoir was still hidden, but it was quiet inside, and there was no sign of anyone coming out, Zhang Feiyang came to his senses, out of concern for Sister Qiao and the doubts in his heart, he stubbornly walked over, without saying a word, in front of Tan Meng, pushed open the door, and looked inside, wanting to see if Sister Qiao was inside.
Really.
There was no one inside.
There are only a piece of pink shrouded in women's boudoir items, appearance, bronze mirror, and gauze tent and so on.
Tan Meng would have thought that Zhang Feiyang dared to open the door in front of her, and his face full of smiles pulled him down, grabbed his arm, and pushed him out, and then, with a bare hand, he closed the door of the boudoir, his willow eyebrows were upside down, and he reprimanded Zhang Feiyang dissatisfiedly, as if his boudoir had broken into Zhang Feiyang.
"Zhang Feiyang! You are so bold! The female disciple's boudoir dares to break in? You are still in my way? You are so disappointed to me!"
Zhang Feiyang didn't care about her scolding.
He only cared about why Sister Qiao wasn't inside, which was completely inconsistent with what the girl at the door said.
"Master. Where's Sister Qiao?"
At this time, Tan Meng was already annoyed and angry, but when he heard Zhang Feiyang ask, he was much less angry, so he smiled faintly, pointed outside, and said that Sister Qiao had gone out.
But this is clearly false.
If Sister Qiao really went out, why didn't the girl standing guard outside know?
Zhang Feiyang heard some questions when he boarded, and he wanted to continue to ask them.
Tan Meng seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and suddenly said something unrelated: "That's right." Zhang Feiyang. Master, I happened to be looking for you for something. I won't bother with you about what happened just now. You listen. I need you to help me find some golden sungrass back now. This matter is very important, and the location of Jinyang grass is in ......"
Zhang Feiyang is not a fool, although he can't be sure what the motive for Tan Meng to suddenly mention this matter is, but Sister Qiao is already very suspicious if she is not here, and it is even more suspicious that she will meet Tan Meng here.
What's more, he saw Tan Meng come out of Sister Qiao's boudoir with his own eyes, even though Tan Meng was holding a broom in his hand, he didn't know if he was really cleaning, but this matter still made him very concerned.
Therefore, after listening to the new task assigned by Sister Qiao and the matter of Jin Yangcao, he still remembered the things he was most concerned about, and asked Tan Meng a new question: "Master." If Sister Qiao goes out, then why are you in her boudoir?"
As soon as these words came out, Tan Meng was obviously unprepared, she was stunned for a moment, fell into silence for a while, and her face became a little ugly, but she reacted quickly, and after only two breaths, she smiled slightly, returned to her nature, and showed Zhang Feiyang the broom in her hand, saying that she was here to help Sister Qiao clean the room.
Zhang Feiyang asked Sister Qiao what she was doing out.
Tan Meng didn't let Zhang Feiyang ask on the grounds that the secret mission couldn't be said.
Zhang Feiyang knew that it seemed that Sister Qiao's whereabouts could only be investigated by herself through other methods, and it was obviously impossible to go deep from Tan Meng
Because, he didn't believe what Tan Meng said.
If Sister Qiao really went out on a secret mission to talk about dreams, why didn't she go to say hello to Gu Qingxue, who had made an appointment to meet today, before leaving?
Anyway, if you carry out a secret mission, you can keep the content of the mission secret, so there is no need to keep it secret from Gu Qingxue.
Gu Qingxue is not an outsider?
What's more, when Sister Qiao went out, the girl at the door didn't know at all? Is she blind?
This obviously doesn't make sense.
Thinking of this, Zhang Fei bowed respectfully and was about to leave.
Tan Meng's face sank, and he stopped him and asked him to collect Jinyang grass to do the task.
At this time, Zhang Feiyang's mind fell on Sister Qiao, and naturally she didn't have much energy to pay attention to this kind of collection of herbs, so she casually made up an excuse to pass it on to others.
Unexpectedly, this incident actually angered Tan Meng.
"No! Zhang Feiyang! I'll tell you. You are my apprentice. The apprentice should listen to the master in everything. You put everything else aside. Now you have to fetch me the golden sungrass. ”
Seeing Tan Meng's face suddenly gloomy, his forehead was bulging, and he looked like a female demon was aggressive, how could he still have the familiarity and friendliness of the past, Zhang Feiyang was taken aback, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
He thought for a while, it seems that this Jin Yangcao is very important to talk about dreams, so don't provoke her words, he was silent for a moment, but he still hugged his fists and chose a temporary compromise.
"Okay. I know. Master, I'm ......"
It's a pity that his reaction just now has already made it difficult to reassure Tan Meng.
Seeing Zhang Feiyang's reluctant look, Tan Meng would believe Zhang Feiyang's compromise response, snorted, raised his hand, and suddenly took out a small purple bottle from his arms, stopped Zhang Feiyang's words, and said, "Don't say it." You come here. Take this bottle of medicine, and as a teacher, you will believe in you. ”
