Chapter 324: Secret Hidden Qi Courtyard Nian Xin
Shen Linfeng didn't answer, since Ling'er didn't know where her grandfather lived, and Ling'er's mother specially asked her to find this Uncle Zhao to take her to Dongling Mountain.
That is to say, except for Ling'er's father, only this Uncle Zhao knows the residence of the Dongling Divine Doctor.
If the treasure of the Seven Star Map is really in Dongling Mountain, it is really related to Ling'er's grandfather. Everything the Demon Sect has done makes sense.
They kidnapped Ling'er in order to blackmail the Dongling Divine Doctor, and they found Zhao Bo because they wanted to get the residence of the Dongling Divine Doctor from his mouth.
But there is one thing that Shen Linfeng can't figure out, that is, what kind of treasures can be hidden in Dongling Mountain. Could it be some kind of cherished herb, or some elixir of immortality?
After thinking about it, Shen Linfeng still decided to go to Uncle Zhao's house tonight. I don't know if I'll be able to get a clue, but it's better to try than to speculate here.
The two returned to the guest room after eating, because they were afraid that Ling'er would be in danger again. Shen Linfeng decided to take her with him at night, and Gan Ling'er was overjoyed when she heard the news. She turned over the bag several times, and she had to put on a night dress.
Night.
At night, the town is quiet, and the streets are sparsely populated. Shen Linfeng dragged Gan Ling'er to pretend to have nothing to do, while the latter pouted and looked displeased. It's just because Shen Linfeng stuffed a set of tight black clothes she carefully selected back into the baggage.
"Cut, people in the rivers and lakes act at night, where is there a reason not to wear night clothes?"
"You and I are not sneaking into an important place, we are just going to a private house that no one lives in, why are you so grand?"
"Then what's wrong with me wearing a black suit?" Gan Ling'er was still full of resentment.
"My eldest lady, you're only going to get more attention. Wouldn't it be more natural for you and my brother and sister to pretend to hang out like this!"
"Phew, who is a brother and sister with you, want to be beautiful!"
The two of you said a word, I said a word, and soon came to the courtyard with a seal. During the day, people gather around to watch the lively place, but at night, people are afraid to avoid it, and some even choose to take a detour.
However, this is a lot more convenient for Shen Linfeng. The two hid in the dark, and he took Gan Ling'er to perform light skills and jumped into the courtyard effortlessly.
The courtyard was a mess, with shovels and baskets everywhere. Gan Ling'er couldn't help but shudder, and one hand tightly tugged at the corner of Shen Linfeng's clothes.
The door was unlocked, allowing two people to enter easily. Shen Linfeng shook the fire fold in his hand, and the room was also in a mess. All kinds of medicinal herbs, as well as bottles and jars containing decoctions, were shattered to the ground.
The door to the back room was covered with a gray curtain covered in a layer of blood, and the pattern had long since been blurred. But compared to the mess outside, the inside of the house was much more tidy, as if the gang had never entered.
An ordinary wooden table with a neat row of books on it. Shen Linfeng cautiously picked up a book, which was densely covered with scribbled handwriting. Several of the pages are accompanied by elaborate images.
Shen Linfeng didn't understand the meaning of the book after reading it for a long time, but looking at some of the names on it, it looked like the names of some medicinal herbs.
Shen Linfeng then handed the book in his hand to Gan Ling'er.
"See what's written in this book?"
Gan Linger took it in her hand and read it seriously.
"It's a medical book!"
"Medical books?"
"That's right, it's much the same as what my father wrote! It seems that this Uncle Zhao is also very good at studying medicine. ”
Shen Linfeng remembered the books on the low cabinet in Ling'er's house.
"These are all medical books?"
Gan Linger put down the medical book in his hand, and he flipped through the books on the wooden table from beginning to end.
"Yes, it's all medical books......! There are some things that are slightly different from what my dad wrote. ”
Gan Ling'er quickly flipped through the pages, when she opened the middle book. Suddenly, a dull yellow envelope fell from it.
Shen Linfeng hurriedly bent over to pick it up, and he set his eyes on Gan Ling'er.
"Look at what I'm doing, take it apart and take it apart!"
Shen Linfeng opened the envelope, the letter paper was dark yellow, and it was obviously some years old. But there was not a word on the letter, only black lines of different lengths, like lakes and rivers.
"Could it be that this is the map to Dongling Mountain? This letter is not hidden, why didn't the people of the Demon Sect take it away?"
Shen Linfeng looked at the room that was barely destroyed.
"Why hasn't this room been destroyed in the slightest, if someone from the Demon Sect has come in, how can they not rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find it?"
He hurriedly rushed out of the door, and the blood stains on the curtain were imprinted outside the inner room, obviously indicating that Zhao Bo had been killed before he entered the inner room.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" asked Gan Ling'er puzzled.
Shen Linfeng stared at the bloodstains on the door curtain with a gloomy face, could it be ...... The man who killed Ziber didn't have time to enter the back room, and why did he have to cut off his limbs?
Is it to ask him, to ask him about the residence of the Dongling Divine Doctor?
Shen Linfeng looked at the blood stains on the ground, and pictures also appeared in his mind.
The murderer broke into Zhao Bo's house, or followed him all the way. The two had a fight in the courtyard, but it was clear that Zhao Bo was not the opponent of this person. The murderer may have pressed Zhao Bo to interrogate, but he didn't open his mouth. So the murderer cut off Zhao Bo's hands and feet, in order to achieve his goal as soon as possible.
At this moment, it may be that a pedestrian in the street noticed something unusual in the courtyard, or someone knocked on the courtyard door. So much so that the murderer left in a panic before he could get his hands on it. The reason why he wanted to kill Uncle Zhao may be because he remembered his appearance, or the murderer didn't want others to know his identity.
Thinking of this, Shen Linfeng's heart tightened. If that's what he thinks, wouldn't the murderer be back at any time?
"Ling'er, let's go!" Shen Linfeng put the letter into his clothes, and then dragged Gan Ling'er and ran out of the door.
"Whew!" a light flashed outside the door.
Shen Linfeng was shocked and quickly retreated into the house. The sword moves of the people outside the door are extremely fast, and they do not back down at all. He held a sharp sword and pressed forward, forcing Shen Linfeng to retreat again and again.
"Ling'er, go into the back room and hide. ”
Gan Ling'er's eyes were quick, and she bent her waist and hurriedly rushed into the back room, moving as fast as a tanuki.
Without Gan Ling'er, Shen Linfeng would naturally be able to let go of his hands and feet. The Qingshuang sword quickly unsheathed and stabbed towards the masked man opposite.
The masked man was obviously also surprised, he never thought that the plainly dressed young man in front of him would have such profound martial arts.
Shen Linfeng responded with all his might, and the masked man couldn't resist and could only retreat again and again. For a while, the figures in the courtyard flew over, the sword light flashed, and the fight was not lively.
