Chapter 144: Being Peeped at (1st Update)
Xue Zha and Le Xiang sighed that although they still saw a lot of hungry people and fugitives along the way, on the whole, people still have the motivation to live.
Although Xue Zha and the others did not explore the entire Three Kingdoms region, it has to be said that only a few places they went to left a deep impression on Xue Zha.
If war is an important means for rulers to gain power and resources, for ordinary people, they spend their days in dire straits.
The last people who want to fight are ordinary people.
And the only people who can shake the position of the ruler the most are the common people.
Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this truth is clear to Xue Zha, and the ruler is also clear.
But in war, there are no innocents.
Xue Zha walked into this Golden State City with a heavy heart and a happy step, and when the two walked in, for some reason, Xue Zha suddenly felt like being targeted.
"Strange? Is it my delusion?"
Xue Zha turned his head to look around and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he continued to walk forward.
Instead, he noticed the changes in Xue Zhe and asked.
"Brother Xue, what's wrong?
Xue Zha didn't speak immediately, but shook his head and frowned.
Then he turned to look at Le Xiang, glanced around, and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he spoke.
"Lao Le, do you feel that something is wrong? Just now, I always felt that there was a gaze staring at me behind my back, and I felt very uncomfortable. ”
It was the first time for Le Shen to see Xue Zha's face with such a solemn expression, even when he was participating in beast hunting activities, he had never been so nervous.
Yes, Le Shen felt nervous in Xue Zha's body, and in his impression, the man in front of him was very calm or indifferent to all problems at mysterious times.
The expression of nervousness, in Le Shen's opinion, should not appear on Xue Zha's face.
At first, he thought that Xue Zha was joking with him, because Xue Zha had stared at him more than once before, but after staring at him carefully for a few seconds, he was convinced that what Xue Zha just said should be true.
However, Le Shen closed his eyes and felt it carefully for a long time, and he didn't feel the feeling of being spied on as Xue Zha just said, and he didn't feel any threat at all.
"Am I feeling wrong?"
Le Xiang was also afraid that he would make a mistake in judgment, so he felt it again, but still didn't find anything.
At this time, his eyes when he looked at Xue Zhe also changed a little.
He took Xue Zha to a secluded place and said in a low voice.
"Brother Xue, I don't know what you just felt, but I want to say that it may be your delusion. ”
Xue Zha's expression changed a little when he heard Le Shen's words, but just as he was about to speak, Le Xiang replied directly.
"If it's not an illusion, then the other party is a very terrifying existence, and all our current actions are under each other's noses. ”
Xue Zha handed the teacup to his lips, tossed aside the tea leaves floating on the surface of the cup, and took a sip gently, and suddenly, a warm tea soup poured into his body down his throat.
But in the next moment, Xue Zha felt that the tea soup activated every cell in his body as if it had life, so that his previous fatigue was swept away, and even the spiritual power that had just been lost by releasing the idiom was slowly recovering.
The tea soup flowed through his body, and he squinted his eyes as if he were soaked in warm water, and he wanted to moan with relaxation.
But the tea soup is only a sip, and this feeling only exists for a few breaths before disappearing.
"What kind of tea is this?"
Xue Zha opened his eyes and blurted out his first sentence directly.
"Hehe, I thought you were going to ask the question you wanted?"
Zhao Shi didn't look up, but still looked at the book in his hand quietly.
"This is Qingshen tea, but it is a relatively high-grade one, which has the effect of clearing the mind and condensing qi and restoring and increasing spiritual power. ”
Zhao Shi directly explained Xue Zhe's problem very clearly, and at the same time explained the role of this tea.
Xue Zhe glanced down at the teacup in his hand, and his eyes lit up.
"It seems that this kind of tea is unique to the Holy Temple, and I have long heard that the Holy Temple specializes in a kind of tea, which is very precious, and when I see it today, it is really so. ”
Xue Zha raised the teacup again and took a sip, this time, he didn't close his eyes again to enjoy it like before, but just took a deep breath and seriously felt the changes in his mental power.
"Okay, don't enjoy it, you must have a lot of questions to ask me, hurry up and leave after asking. ”
Zhao Shi seemed to be a little impatient, he pressed down the book in his hand, and raised his eyes to look at Xue Zha, but there was an expression of crying and laughing on his face.
Xue Zha also knew that his current behavior was not very good, so he put the teacup back on the table and got up and saluted Zhao Shi.
"Master Zhao, please bear with me if I offended the sea before, I really don't understand a lot of things when I first arrived at the Holy Courtyard, I hope you can help me answer them." ”
Seeing Xue Zha so respectful at this time, Zhao Shi finally put down the book in his hand, slowly stood up and walked in front of Xue Zha.
"Since I'm here, I'm here to help you solve the questions in your mind, and your time is limited, so you only have three questions to ask, think about it. ”
Zhao Shi turned around and returned to his seat again, but this time, he didn't read or drink tea again, just looked at Xue Zha quietly.
Xue Zhe frowned, since there were only three questions, then he couldn't ask any more casually, and besides, what did this person mean when he said that his time was limited.
But Xue Zha knew that he couldn't let Zhao Shi wait for a long time, so he asked his first question.
"I want to know, where is Pan Xiaolian now?"
Xue Zha asked the question he most wanted to know the answer to.
But after Master Zhao heard Xue Zha's words, he stroked his beard and smiled, and then spoke.
"That's the purpose of your visit, but I won't answer this question right away, and I'll tell you the answer to the two questions when you ask them. ”
Zhao Shi looked at Xue Zha with burning eyes and motioned for him to say his question again.
Xue Zha didn't expect that Zhao Shi didn't answer him first, but answering immediately and answering later was not much different from him, so he didn't get angry, groaned slightly, and asked himself a second question.
"I want to know, what is Pan Xiaolian's state at this time?
Xue Zha's tone raised a few points, he was afraid that Zhao Shi would not answer his question like before.
After hearing Xue Zha's words, Zhao Shi really froze, and then laughed.
"Haha, you kid is really interesting, and the Holy Courtyard will definitely become more interesting because of you in the future. ”
When Xue Zha heard Master Zhao's words, his face, which was still tense, immediately twitched.
"Why is this style of painting not right? Shouldn't it be the answer to my question? Also, what does it mean?"
But without waiting for Xue Zha to think, Zhao Shi withdrew his smile, patted the arm of the chair lightly and said.
"Pan Xiaolian is in a good state at this time, but I can only say that I am not sure if she can wake up, it all depends on her personal will, not external forces. ”
Zhao Shi's voice was a little low, but he finally gave Xue Zhe a complete answer.
When Xue Zha heard Master Zhao's words, the expression on his face also changed a little.
"If it's really like what he said, it's unknown whether Xiaolian can wake up, this old guy, who seems to be seriously answering my question, is clearly avoiding something. ”
Xue Zha calmed down and thought about it, only then did he find that Zhao Shi's answer was very problematic, but he couldn't help it, who let him just come, one has no confidence, two has no identity, and third, people are not familiar with you.
"Okay, I've given you the answer to the second question, ask the third question, and I'll tell you the answer to the first question. ”
