Chapter 202: Tracking Alone
At the door of the main hall, Xiao Bo and Xiao Tian had already returned to Xiao Juxian's side......
"Xiao Wuzhong also said that to Abo, right?" Xiao Juxian looked at the vista outside the door with his eyes, and asked Xiao Bo beside him softly.
"Senior Brother Wu Zhong still told me about leaving the villa again...... Xiao Bo responded, "It seems that Senior Brother Wu Zhong still seems to have the previous things in mind, Master, you see ......"
"No matter what he says, he has no opinion on the matter of the worship day...... Xiao Juxian asked again.
"Well, Senior Brother Wuzhong has agreed, and on the day of worship, he will definitely present the token of the gang, 'Bai Ling Fengjin', which should not be ......false," Xiao Bo responded.
"But I'm always worried, this matter doesn't seem to be so simple......," Xiao Juxian said a little worried, "Xiao Wuzhong returned to the villa without saying a word, and yesterday there was an incident where outsiders broke into the villa, and I always felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy in all this...... Xiao Wuzhong has an arrogant personality and likes to be suspicious of people's hearts, he won't just go back to the villa to talk about the worship day, we still can't let our guard down......"
"I know this, Master......," Xiao Bo replied in a low voice.
And Xiao Tian, who didn't know what to say on the side, kept his expression puzzled. He didn't know much about Xiao Wuzhong, but today Xiao Wuzhong suddenly returned to the villa, but Xiao Tian understood a lot of cause and effect. Seeing that this matter had nothing to do with him, Xiao Tian just stood aside silently.
Xiao Juxian glanced at Xiao Tian sideways, and then said with a serious expression: "What are you doing standing here." Xiao Wuzhong's affairs have nothing to do with you, what should you do!"
"Oh-" Xiao Tian replied with some frustration, he understood that the master was still "crowding" himself. still doesn't admit that he is a disciple of Xiaojia Villa. So Xiao Tian turned around and slowly left the main hall.
"Ah Tian ......" Xiao Bo, who knew the truth, looked at Xiao Tian's somewhat sad back, and then looked at Master Xiao Juxian's face, not only did he sigh a little, "Master, this is good for Ah Tian...... Is it really good?"
Xiao Juxian didn't answer immediately, but closed his eyes slightly. Then he shook his head, and after a long time whispered, "I don't know, at least...... In order to make up for the original sin. I can only be ruthless to Ah Tian......"
Xiao Bo looked at his master Xiao Juxian's hesitant appearance, and he didn't know what to say for a while......
At this moment, Xiao Wuzhong happened to come back from the back mountain. Coming to the door of the main hall, Xiao Wuzhong still responded respectfully in front of his master: "Master." The fool has returned—"
"What were you doing in the back mountain. Why is it so slow?" Xiao Juxian saw that Xiao Wuzhong did not come down with Xiao Bo and Xiao Tian, so he asked rhetorically.
Xiao Wuzhong replied unhurriedly: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't returned to the villa for a long time, and I miss some flowers and plants on the mountain, so I just spent a little more time on it......" It seems that Xiao Wuzhong deliberately concealed the truth about being in the back mountain just now, and until now, only Su Jia, who secretly followed Xiao Wuzhong, knew about it.
Xiao Bo listened, and his eyes stared at Xiao Wuzhong again.
"How's the matter going?" Xiao Juxian asked again. "About the day of worship, take back the token 'Bai Ling Fengjin' in the gang......"
"Don't worry, Master. On the day of worship, the 'Bai Ling Fengjin' will definitely be offered, but it's just ......" Xiao Wuzhong said, deliberately delaying his breath.
"But what?" Xiao Juxian was afraid that Xiao Wuzhong would play some tricks, so he asked cautiously.
Xiao Wuzhong was not in a hurry, straightened up and said: "However, in recent days, the fools have also had idle chores in Lingguan City, so I am afraid that I will not have time to personally return the token 'Bai Ling Fengjin' in the gang...... If you need to provide the token in advance, I'm afraid that other disciples of the mountain villa need to come to Lingguan City in person to get the token back before you can ......."
"Go to Lingguan City in person?" Xiao Bo said suspiciously, "It's that Senior Brother Wuzhong is alone in Lingguan City, what kind of idle things will there be, Senior Brother Wuzhong, you don't even have time to come back?"
Xiao Bo's words obviously carried a suspicious attitude towards Xiao Wuzhong, Xiao Wuzhong paused slightly, and then retorted: "Hmph, I have been thinking about Xiao Family Villa for so long, listening to Abo's tone, it seems that you still doubt me?"
"That's not what I meant......" Xiao Bo also suddenly felt that what he had just said was a little too much, so he immediately slowed down.
Xiao Wuzhong continued: "It's the original brothers and sisters of Xiaojia Villa, I have been thinking about this place for so long, and I take the time to come back every year to come back, but no one has ever come to Lingguan City to see me once......
Xiao Wuzhong's words were a bit anti-guest-oriented, Xiao Bo seemed to want to say something more, but was stopped by Xiao Juxian on the side.
Xiao Juxian stopped Xiao Bo's chest with his hand, and then said to Xiao Wuzhong in person: "Okay, just according to what you said Wuzhong, two days later, we will send our disciples to Lingguan City to get back the token of the villa 'Bai Ling Fengjin'......"
"It seems that the master is still very worried about the fool, and according to the last wish of the late father, he takes great care of the fool......" Xiao Wuzhong mentioned the matter of his father and his master Xiao Juxian again, turned around and said, "Then according to what you said, Master, two days later, the fool will wait in Lingguan City in person." After the brothers and sisters retrieve the tokens, the fools will return to the villa on the day of worship. ”
"Okay, that's it-" Xiao Juxian didn't seem to want Xiao Bo next to him to interject anymore, so he responded first, wanting to end the conversation with Xiao Wuzhong as soon as possible.
"Since you have agreed today, Master, the fool will take his leave first......" Xiao Wuzhong said, and glanced at Xiao Bo, and then turned around and left the main hall and walked towards the gate of Xiaojia Villa......
Xiao Juxian and Xiao Bo continued to stand at the door, Xiao Bo was a little puzzled: "Master, I feel more and more that Senior Brother Wuzhong is a little strange, he seems to have been trying to hide from us, in recent years, he has been alone in Lingguan City, there must be something unknown to everyone......"
"How could I not know this......" Xiao Juxian sighed and said, "It's just that I've been reflecting on my original mistakes." It turns out that I was too indulgent to Xiao Wuzhong...... Now that his ambition has swelled like this, there is no way for me to force it, if he really does something excessive. I can only take one step at a time. I was in a hurry to stop you just now so that he wouldn't be too suspicious of us......"
Xiao Bo thought for a moment, and then said, "Is what you said just now okay...... Two days later, do we really want to send someone to Lingguan City to personally retrieve the token 'Bai Ling Fengjin'?"
"Of course, but you can't let your guard down......" Xiao Juxian replied with a wrinkle in his eyes, "Lingguan City is a subsidiary of Bianliang City, and it has a lot to do with Bianliang's military aircraft. When the time comes, just to be on the safe side. Maybe I'll send Abo to you personally......"
Hearing that Master might have to assign him a very important task, Xiao Bo stared and said, "I know, Master ......," Xiao Bo said. There was a firm thought in my heart......
After Xiao Wuzhong walked out of the main hall, he walked straight towards the gate. However, since he went to the back mountain, Xiao Wuzhong has not noticed that Su Jia is still closely following Xiao Wuzhong's back.
Su Jia always kept a certain distance from Xiao Wuzhong. Holding his breath and concentrating, he didn't let Xiao Wuzhong find out. In order not to make the disciples of the other mountain villas suspicious. When he came to the main courtyard, Su Jia directly performed light skills and jumped onto the tall pine trees in the villa. Su Jia came out of the Wind Chasing School, and the great feature of the Wind Chasing School's martial arts is that the disciples are very good at light skills, which is naturally not a difficult thing for Su Jia......
Out of the door, Xiao Wuzhong also looked around, and made sure that there were no other disciples behind him to greet him, so he hurried down the mountain. Because of what he had just told his black-clothed subordinates in the back mountain, Xiao Wuzhong seemed to be rushing back to Lingguan City to do something at this time. I saw that Xiao Wuzhong's mood at this time was completely different from the calm appearance he pretended to be in the villa just now. At this time, he seemed to be in a hurry, and quickened his pace and descended the stairs halfway up the mountain. It seems that he doesn't want others to notice.
Su Jia jumped to the top of the gate of Xiaojia Villa again, standing here overlooking everything under the mountain. Since there were no trees on the stairs halfway up the mountain, if he was still rashly following behind like just now, with Xiao Wuzhong's ability, it was impossible not to notice it. So Su Jia thought about letting Xiao Wuzhong completely get off the stairs for the time being, and then sped up his pace to rush over.
But after all, Xiao Wuzhong is also a disciple with good martial arts in Xiaojia Villa, and the jungle road under the mountain is very rugged and complicated, if Xiao Wuzhong gets down the ladder, spends up his pace or even uses light skills to leave, then no matter how powerful Su Jia's light skills are, he will not be able to catch up. Su Jia frowned and thought while looking at the dense jungle deep under the mountain.
"If you jump down directly from here and come to the bottom of the stairs first, then you won't lose Xiao Wuzhong...... "Su Jia muttered in her heart, "But the height of this half of the mountain is not small, no matter how good the light skills are, if you are not careful, it is very likely that you will die at the bottom of the valley...... No, since Xiao Wuzhong can have a relationship with Wang Dasheng, the matter must not be simple. If you don't find out as soon as possible, it may be detrimental to the entire Xiaojia Villa and even the entire Central Plains Martial Arts, and the secret of the previous kendo conference is already an example......" Su Jia remembered at this time that when he broke into the prime minister's mansion at night in Bianliang City, he found that only he knew at the moment and could not easily wear the secret of the kendo conference.
Su Jia frowned, and then said in her heart: "I can only give it a try...... Although it is a little dangerous, but when Ah Tian and I were chased and killed by Lu Huan's predecessors before, it was okay to jump from such a high mountain, and this time it was nothing. If you miss the discovery of the secrets behind these things, there may be unpredictable consequences......"
So, Su Jia still strengthened her determination and decided to jump directly from this place. I saw Su Jia spotting the ditch on the cliff, and jumped into the air. Immediately, with a condescending feeling, Su Jia saw the rock marks on the cliff, and every time he lowered his body, he immediately used his hands and feet to exert his internal force to buckle the rock wall, so that he stopped temporarily. Immediately afterwards, continuing to Xiangxia, Su Jia performed another light skill, and her body went down again, and she grabbed the rock wall once...... Back and forth, Su Jia directly stepped on the light work, climbed the steep rock wall, and slowly walked step by step. Although the speed is very slow, it is at least much faster than Xiao Wuzhong's walking down the mountain, and coming down from the cliff can also avoid Xiao Wuzhong's ears and eyes well......
Finally, we are almost at the foot of the mountain. Su Jia zuihou leaned on a rock wall and saw the height of the fall. Then the whole body tightened, and the whole person pushed back a little, and the light work under his feet suddenly rose. With the rustle of leaves, Zuihou Su Jia landed on the top of a large tree next to the staircase. Through the layers of intertwined branches and leaves, looking through the middle, the field of vision is right towards the staircase entrance, from which you can see Xiao Wuzhong's next move.
Sure enough, Xiao Wuzhong still didn't notice that Su Jia was following him, and even this time Su Jia made a prediction in advance. Descend straight from the cliffs. After Xiao Wuzhong walked to the mouth of the stairs, he realized that he had left the scope of Xiaojia Villa and breathed a sigh of relief. Then walk in the direction of the east gate of Lingguan City......
Su Jia saw it in his eyes, and his heart was still uneasy: "It seems that like this, Xiao Wuzhong wants to go back to Lingguan City directly." However, I heard him say in the back mountain just now that he wanted to talk to Wang Dasheng in person. If the location is Lingguan Castle. It is estimated that it is very likely to meet Wang Dasheng. After all, Lingguan City is a subsidiary city of Bianliang City. Moreover, it is also an important military location in Bianliang City, not far from Bianliang, and it is reasonable for Bianliang guards to come over to inspect every once in a while. If Wang Dasheng is also in Lingguan City, then I will have to be extremely careful......
Su Jia was nervous, and then quietly followed in the direction where Xiao Wuzhong left, still showing no traces of being discovered......
In the main courtyard of Xiaojia Villa, Xiao Tian, who was "driven out" by his master, walked aimlessly and silently alone. Today's arrival of Xiao Wuzhong made the whole atmosphere of Xiaojia Villa a little tense. However, his master Xiao Juxian and senior brother Xiao Bo deliberately avoided themselves, and seemed to be hiding something from themselves. For this. Xiao Tian's heart was also full of doubts.
Xiao Tian felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, so he wanted to talk to Su Jia. However, thinking of the conversation between himself and Su Jia in the courtyard last night, as well as some of his mother's "estrangement" from Su Jia, Xiao Tian also felt a little confused about his relationship with Su Jia.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tian went everywhere to find Su Jia. However, I didn't see Su Jia's figure early this morning, and the whole courtyard went around, and I didn't find Su Jia herself. On weekdays, when Su Jia is alone, she always plays the flute by herself to relieve her worries, but this morning Xiao Tian went directly to the back mountain, and when he came back, he didn't even hear the sound of the flute.
"Jia'er-" Xiao Tian couldn't help but call out in the courtyard, but there was no answer. Xiao's Villa is not too big, if it weren't for going to the back mountain, Xiao Tian really couldn't think of where Su Jia would go at this time. But today, there are only himself and Senior Brother Xiao Bo and Xiao Wuzhong who suddenly arrived in the back mountain, and he didn't see Su Jia. Thinking of this, Xiao Tian couldn't help but be a little worried.
Xiao Tian continued to walk along the stairs, still not seeing Su Jia's figure, but he saw Xue Cui working alone by the door.
Xiao Tian thought about it, and maybe Xuecui knew Su Jia's whereabouts, although the relationship between the two of them was a little delicate. So, Xiao Tian ran to Xuecui's side in two steps, and asked anxiously, "Xuecui, Xuecui, have you seen Jia'er?"
Seeing that Xiao Tian was in such a hurry, Xue Cui was stunned for a while, looked at Xiao Tian with some surprise in her eyes, and did not speak.
"I asked if you saw Jia'er?" Seeing that Xue Cui was a little dazed, Xiao Tian continued to ask, "I haven't seen her for a few days and mornings, where will she go at this time?"
Xue Cui's eyes wrinkled slightly, and then replied, "Sister Su told me just now...... She went to quietly follow Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong to the back mountain, Ah Tian, weren't you there just now?"
"What, why is Jia'er following Senior Brother Wuzhong?" Xiao Tian was a little surprised when he heard this, "Even if that's the case, I didn't see her in the back mountain just now, but now that we're all down, and Senior Brother Wuzhong is also gone, Weishenme still hasn't seen Jia'er?"
"I don't know too much about this, Sister Su shouldn't ......" Xue Cui said with some horror, "Sister Su shouldn't still be following Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong......"
"Wouldn't it?, what is Jia'er doing this for......" Xiao Tian's tone was mixed with doubts and worries, "Jia'er came to Xiaojia Villa, she is not familiar with the place, in case she follows Senior Brother Wuzhong and something happens, what should I ......do?"
"Sister Su, she ...... Something can't happen, right?" Xue Cui was also very worried when she learned about the situation.
Xiao Tian stood in place and thought about it, and then said to Xuecui: "Xuecui, you wait here first, and then I'll go to find Jia'er, maybe the other people in the villa will know something......
So, Xiao Tian immediately turned around and ran in the direction of his house first......
Xue Cui looked at Xiao Tian's back as he left in a hurry for Su Jia, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable sour feeling in her heart...... (To be continued......)
