Chapter 32: The Dragon King travels, and the wind and rain follow
"That Taoist priest is Liu Xuanshi. ”
"What. ”
Ling Xiao was really unspeakably surprised, she couldn't have imagined that the person she was looking for had already met just now.
She hurriedly reacted and said, "Boss, please give me a pot of a thousand days of drunkenness." Since she knew that the Taoist priest was Liu Xuanshi, and the other party wanted wine, it was better to buy it back for a thousand days.
The boss hurriedly took out a bamboo tube and said: "The new wine has not been brewed yet, since you have to buy wine, then I will give you all the wine left from before, but I don't want your money, as long as you do something for me." ”
Ling Xiao said, "What's the matter?"
The boss said: "Don't worry, I won't let you do anything against your will, as for what it is, when the time comes, I will inform you." ”
Ling Xiao said, "Do you know how to contact me?"
The boss smiled: "Although I make wine, I never drink, and naturally I am not drunk, and my mind is very clear, so I know where you come from, and of course I know how to find you." ”
Ling Xiao listened to his words, and understood that this person should be a hidden master, and she said solemnly: "I heard that boss, your name is Di Xi, this is your real name?"
The boss said, "Yes." ”
Ling Xiao said: "Okay, I remember." I also want wine, and I agree to your conditions. ”
So Di Xi, the owner of the restaurant, handed over the bamboo tube wine to Ling Xiao.
After Ling Xiao got the wine, he said to Ji Xiao: "Uncle Ji Xiao, let's go." ”
Ji Xiao said: "You go first, I'll come to you later." ”
Ling Xiao was secretly curious, but she didn't ask more, she was more concerned about that Taoist priest now. Her body flashed and disappeared into the wind and rain.
Wait for Ling Xiao to leave.
Ji Yu said: "When will your thousand-day drunk be brewed?"
The boss said: "If you are drunk for a thousand days, you will be drunk for a thousand days, so it will take a thousand days to brew, and this new wine has only been brewed for 865 days." ”
Ji Xiao said: "It seems that I want to drink fresh thousand days of drunkenness, and I have to wait for more than four months, and you must leave me an altar at that time." ”
The boss said: "Okay, to be honest, there are not many people who are qualified to drink my wine, but you are indeed qualified to drink my wine, but I never invite people to drink, what price are you going to pay?"
Ji Xiao smiled and said, "I will keep your secret for you." ”
The boss said calmly: "What secrets do you know about me?"
"Although it is rainy in Bazhou, there is also too much rain in Yucheng. Ji Xiao paused and added: "I have heard a saying, the dragon king travels, and the wind and rain follow each other. ”
The boss took a deep look at Ji Xiao and said, "I'm not the Dragon King. ”
Ji Xiao smiled slightly and said, "I know, you are not the Dragon King yet. ”
The boss sighed: "After one hundred and thirty-five days, you can come again, and I will leave the best puree for you." ”
"Thank you. Ji Xiao said slightly.
A thousand days of drunkenness is not an ordinary wine, but an immortal brew, so Ji Yu is very interested, and his thanks are sincere.
The boss said: "There is a sword in Bazhou, maybe it is very suitable for you, since you are here, you might as well look for it, if you can find it, next time you come to get wine, you can show it to me." ”
Ji Yu said: "What kind of sword is that?"
The boss said: "A sword that can't kill." ”
Ji Xiao said: "It sounds very interesting, I'll try to find it." ”
"Well, I still can't help but ask you, how did you find out?" said the boss.
Ji Xiao said: "I have seen a real dragon. ”
"I see, thank you. ”
"You're welcome. ”
...
...
Back on the riverbank, Ling Xiao was grabbing the Taoist priest and kept pumping mana to him. The Taoist priest had a long sword mark on his chest, and he was bleeding profusely.
There were also many medicinal powders on the side of the wound, which were all healing elixirs, but they had no effect on the wound.
Ji Xiao walked up to Ling Xiao and said, "I'll come." ”
Ling Xiao was slightly stunned, and then immediately got out of the way.
Ji Xiao volleyed out his finger power and pointed it near the Taoist priest's wound, and the blood that kept flowing out stopped. Ji Xiao patted the Taoist priest's Lingtai acupoint, and the Taoist priest woke up immediately.
Ling Xiao said: "Who hurt you?"
The Taoist priest's nose moved, and he said, "Wine, give me wine." ”
Ling Xiao glanced at Ji Xiao, and Ji Xiao nodded.
She gave the bamboo tube containing the wine to the Taoist priest, who pulled the stopper and took a sip.
"If there is wine in life, you must be drunk, and a drop has never been to Jiuquan. The Taoist priest sighed with satisfaction, and then said to Ling Xiao: "Thank you for the wine, you must also know that I am Liu Xuanshi, I know that you want to ask Qing Pingzi about it, you don't need to ask me how I know, because the people who have come to me recently have asked about this." ”
Ling Xiao said, "Can you tell me Qingpingzi's whereabouts?"
The Taoist priest said, "He's dead." ”
Ling Xiao asked in a deep voice, "Where did he die and where was he buried?"
The Taoist priest said: "Die in the temple and be buried in the temple." ”
"What temple?" Ling Xiao continued.
The Taoist priest suddenly burst out laughing, and then his face turned red, as if someone had stuck his neck. He sticks out his tongue and his face is distorted and looks oozing.
After a few breaths, the Taoist priest no longer breathed.
"He's dead. Ling Xiao also tried to rescue the Taoist priest, but Ji Xiao came up with a sentence.
Ling Xiao controlled her breath, and she said to Ji Xiao: "Uncle Ji Xiao, I heard that there is a soul conjuring technique in the world, even if he is dead, there should be some souls left now, can you summon souls to him?"
Ji Xiao squatted down, checked the pulse of the Taoist priest, and then said, "He has lost his soul." ”
Ling Xiao was silent for a while, and then said, "He said that Uncle Qingpingzi is dead, I don't believe it. Even if he dies, I will find his body. Now we will deal with the aftermath of this Liu Xuanshi. ”
Ji Xiao said: "You are calmer than I thought. ”
Ling Xiao said: "Things have happened, and regret and unwillingness are useless. ”
"Very good, where are you going to bury him?" Ji Xiao said.
Ling Xiao said: "Go to the government first, if he doesn't have a family, choose a cemetery for him." ”
Next, they went to ask the government, and Liu Xuanshi was indeed a local, but he had no family. And he is actually one hundred and thirty-five years old this year, which is simply human.
So the government wanted to make a fuss about Liu Xuanshi's corpse, but as soon as they thought about it, they couldn't find Liu Xuanshi's corpse and the pair of young men and women.
Liu Xuanshi's body and the young men and women disappeared in plain sight.
It is rumored that Liu Xuanshi has become an immortal, and young men and women are immortals in the sky.
...
...
In the barren mountains, in a steep place, Ling Xiao buried Liu Xuanshi, and at the same time sprinkled some medicinal powder that tends to avoid poisonous insects, snakes and ants and can cover the breath, I believe that Liu Xuanshi can sleep in this place.
Although Liu Xuanshi was already out of soul according to Ji Xiao's statement, Ling Xiao still followed the rules of the world and let him be buried in peace.
Before she knew it, she had already seen two dead people when she went down the mountain.
And they should all die because of Qingpingzi's affairs. It's just that one died at the hands of Ye Qi, and the other didn't know who did it.
Ling Xiao doubted Ye Qi, but Ji Xiao said no.
She trusted Ji Liao's judgment.
It seems that besides Ye Qi, there are other people who are preventing her from tracking down Qingpingzi's matter, and not even stopping her, but also preventing others from tracking down this matter.
"Uncle Ji Xiao, I will still investigate, but I will be more cautious. Ling Xiao didn't choose to back down, let alone recklessly continue to investigate, she wanted to find out who assassinated Liu Xuanshi first.
The clue to this answer may be found from the boss who sells a thousand days of drunkenness.
After all, there were four groups of people who had gone to the boss before to buy a thousand days of drunk for the Taoist. She wondered who those people were, and that the killer might be among them.
Ling Xiao repeatedly made sure that no one was following him, and only then did he arrive at the restaurant.
But the restaurant has closed, and it says that the owner will be out for a while and will not come back in two months. In the liquor store, the thousand days of drunkenness that were being brewed were also gone, and I think the boss took them away together.
With Ling Xiao's ability, he can't find the whereabouts of the boss.
