Chapter 363: Madness
Great Wilderness Mountain.
It took three days for Ning Chen to follow Chang Yucun to roughly circle the Great Wilderness Mountain.
By the way, I also went to see the dozen or so places where people could be hidden.
Ning Chen now very suspicious that those bandits were no longer in the Great Wilderness Mountain, after all, knowing that there was a garrison in the Great Wilderness City investigating them, eighty percent of them would choose to temporarily avoid the edge.
Ning Chen is not afraid of startling the snake now, because the other party has already been frightened, but he doesn't know whether he is frightened away or "angry".
Even now Ning Chen still hopes that he can attract the other party, so that there is a lot less trouble.
Ning Chen, Chang Yucun and the others still haven't been able to figure out how the three scouts they sent before disappeared.
There was not the slightest clue, and there was no trace of them in the Great Wilderness Mountain.
is really worthy of Zhong Guanyun's description of "mysterious disappearance".
"It's just nothing. Ning Chen roasted the hare and said helplessly.
"Let the adults run for nothing. Chang Yucun's face was also very gloomy.
"You can't say that. Ning Chen shook his head: "After all, it is my Daming soldier, and there must be some reason for me to disappear for no reason." ”
"What is their motive for being arrested?" Ning Chen's brows furrowed tightly: "Or are they alive or dead now?"
"If it's dead, where is the body?" Ning Chen's series of questions let Chang Yucun know that he really wanted to solve this matter.
But now it's at a loss.
Ideals and reality are opposites and are everywhere.

"You're awake. ”
Qi Shaoshang looked at the young man and said lightly.
"Master. The young man looked at the still vague face in front of him, with a hint of surprise.
"How did you get this look?" Qi Shaoshang touched his head, and then said: "If I didn't understand some pharmacology, I'm afraid you wouldn't be alive now." ”
The young man was silent for a while.
"Now that you're recovered, let's go. Qi Shaoshang said to him.
"Where are you going?" asked the young man subconsciously.
"Naturally, it's going home. Qi Shaoshang smiled helplessly.
"Go home?" The young man's face suddenly turned pale: "I can't go back." ”
"Why?" Qi Shaoshang was a little puzzled.
"My mother is dead. The young man's eyes were blank and very dull.
"Your mother?" Qi Shaoshang was even more stunned.
"What's going on?" Qi Shaoshang frowned slightly, looked at the young man and asked, "Tell me more clearly?"
"It's my aunt. The young man said to Qi Shaoshang: "Daddy is not in the house, after I went back that day, I saw my mother being beaten by her, and I ...... the next day."
The young man paused, and then said, "After I buried my mother, I killed that slut to take revenge... Now it's homeless. ”
"This..."Qi Shaoshang's face was even more ugly.
"That's it. Qi Shaoshang sighed lightly: "Take me to see your father." ”
"Hmm..."The young man was stunned for a while.
"I killed my mother. The young man reminded.
"The man has been killed. Qi Shaoshang nodded, and then said, "This matter can't be endless like this. ”
"But..."
"No, but. Qi Shaoshang looked at the young man and said, "Also, I didn't promise to accept you." ”
Shaw House.
"Little brute!" When Master Xiao saw the young man returning, he was immediately furious, and raised his right hand, which was directly a slap.
The young man wanted to hide, but was forced by Qi Shaoshang and took the slap hard.
"Smack!"
A resounding slap in the face.
Expected and reasonable.
The young man just gritted his teeth, don't look over his head and don't look at Master Xiao.
He knew that his father was not wrong, although his mother was a concubine and he was a concubine, but he had never been looked down upon by his father.
"You dare to come back!" Master Xiao stretched out his hand to fight, but when he saw the slap mark on the young man's face, he couldn't bear it.
"You are really unfilial!" Old Man Xiao pointed angrily at the young man.
"She killed her mother!" The young man had tears in his eyes and almost roared at Master Xiao.
"That's not the reason for you to commit a crime and murder your own mother!" Old Man Xiao clenched his fists, as if he was angry: "Killing people is never a solution to things!"
"You killed your eldest mother, what will you do if you let your eldest brother?" Old Man Xiao paused again and again: "Let your eldest brother kill you again?"
"My eldest brother came to me to avenge my mother's murder, even though he came... It's a big deal to give this life to the eldest brother!" the young man said stubbornly.
"You two are killing each other so much!" Master Xiao kicked the young man to the ground and scolded angrily: "You two are happy, and you will take revenge for killing your mother... Who will Lao Tzu go to for the revenge of killing his wife? If the two of you die again, who should Lao Tzu go to for the revenge of killing his son?"
"Confused!" Master Xiao was a literati, and now he completely exploded: "It's stupid!"
"But... She killed her mother!" the young man had thought about it so much, and at the moment he was in tears, and he had no confidence when he spoke.
"Kneel!" Master Xiao was the most uncomfortable one at the moment, he had already foreseen the situation where their Xiao brothers turned against each other and father and son became enemies.
The young man subconsciously knelt on the ground, and his father's deterrent power to him still existed.
"Whew!" Old Man Xiao sighed, and then said to Qi Shaoshang, who brought his son back, "I haven't asked Your Excellency for your honorable name yet." ”
"Don't dare to be. Qi Shaoshang saluted with one arm and said, "Under Qi Shaoshang." ”
"Lianyunzhai chief scoop handle?" Old Man Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
"False name. Qi Shaoshang didn't expect that Master Xiao would still know about himself.
"If all the cottages in the world are like Lianyun Village... There will be a lot of peace on the rivers and lakes. Master Xiao was quite embarrassed.
Liao praised it. Although Qi Shaoshang said this, his expression said that what you said was not wrong at all, and I accepted this compliment.
"I don't know how the owner of the village knows Xiao'er. Master Xiao asked Qi Shaoshang.
Master Xiao is still a little self-contained, and after venting on his son for a while, he is now much calmer.
"I taught a few blind thieves, and it happened to be seen by Ling Lang. Qi Shaoshang looked at Master Xiao and said, "This kid wants to worship me as a teacher and learn some martial arts." ”
"If I had simply agreed to him that day. A hint of apology appeared on Qi Shaoshang's face, and then said: "He can also return home earlier, maybe his mother won't die, and things won't get to such a point." ”
The owner of the village said that the old man was really embarrassed. Master Xiao also secretly scolded himself: "Although the two of them don't talk much on weekdays, I didn't expect that the old man would do this after just going out for a few days." ”
"The root of everything, in the final analysis, is still in the old man's body. "Master Xiao is a sensible person, and when he saw Qi Shaoshang taking this matter on himself, he couldn't bear it.
"There is also a big prince outside the staff?" Qi Shaoshang then asked.
"Hmm. Master Xiao glared at his youngest son, and then said: "These brothers are not like their mothers, they can be described as having a deep relationship... Now it seems... Alas~"
Master Xiao let out a long sigh, and there was still a bit of a desolate feeling.
The so-called revenge of killing the mother is not shared.
These two boys, this feud can't be solved.
Such an unfortunate thing happened to me, even though I was familiar with the books of the sages, but the books of the sages did not tell me how to solve the problems in front of me.
If he could use his life to stop the slaughter between the two brothers, he would definitely not skimp on his life.
Qi Shaoshang can also see at this moment that this Master Xiao is not a "bad person", and his degree of understanding of things is even higher than the average.
Speaking of which. Qi Shaoshang pulled his lips and continued: "I don't know Ling Lang's name yet." ”
"A single name is a straight word. Master Xiao paused again: "But if you look at what you do, where is it worthy of the word 'positive'?"
"It's happening, it's irreversible. Qi Shaoshang looked at Master Xiao and said, "For now, let's think about how to solve the matter in front of you." ”
Qi Shaoshang's ears moved slightly, and then said, "If I heard correctly, the eldest prince will come back." ”

Northern Swallow.
"Why?"
Li Linyu looked at his father, who was wearing prison uniforms and being locked in a prison car and parading on the street, and asked Gu Xichao beside him, "Why my father?"
"Why?" Li Linyu's expression was a little crazy, he didn't understand why his father ended up like this.
Just the day before, his father was still the head of the household, and overnight, everything went wrong.
Daddy was imprisoned, the Li Mansion was sealed, and he still escaped with the help of Gu Xichao.
"Because your dad is with the wrong person. Gu Xichao looked at Li Linyu and said.
"Hehe... Hehe..."Li Linyu showed a trace of sadness on his face: "It's just that Brother Gu has been affected." ”
Gu Xichao was also stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that at this time, Li Linyu would still take him to heart.
"I'm sorry about Ling Zun. Gu Xichao arched his hand at Li Linyu, and then said: "My ability is limited, and I can only save you alone." ”
"Brother Gu is talking about something. Li Linyun watched the prisoner car go away, looked at Gu Xichao and asked, "If I want to take revenge, how sure can I be?"
"If you hit a stone with an egg, you will die. Gu Xichao told Li Linyu about this cruel reality.
"Is that really the case?" Li Linyu naturally knows that he can't write or martial arts, and he is typical of waste materials.
"What should I do now?" Li Linyu asked as he looked at Gu Xichao.
"Live. Gu Xichao said to Li Linyu: "Ling Zun's crime does not constitute a capital crime, if you don't want Ling Zun to be released from prison, no one will pick him up... Just live honestly. ”
"I'm afraid I'm going to be exiled. Li Linyu said to Gu Xichao.
"It's easy to exile. Gu Xichao smiled slightly, and then said: "I still have some friends in the rivers and lakes, no matter where Ling Zun is exiled, there will always be something to say, and when the time comes, you can reunite your father and son." ”
Gu Xichao did not have any special opinion on Li Shangshu, it can be said that the reason why Li Shangshu was not convicted of capital crime was due to his son Li Linyu.
You must know that Gu Xichao has a task, and his task is to remove Li Shangshu from power.
If there is no Li Linyu here, according to Gu Xichao's temperament of doing things without leaving trouble, I am afraid that this Li Mansion may not be able to stay alive.
But the current situation is different, the criminal information of the Li Mansion and Li Shangshu is from Gu Xichao's intelligence, it can be said that Gu Xichao wants the three princes and the general to get something, they can only get something.
It's just this, Li Linyu, who led the wolf into the room, didn't know.
At this moment, Li Linyu also regards Gu Xichao as his savior.
Li Linyu couldn't see the light, and with the assistance of Gu Xichao, he changed his face and has been in the rivers and lakes since then.
General's Palace.
"It's a pity. The general looked at Gu Xichao with a smug face, and said: "I didn't expect you to just go to the Li Mansion for a few days and get him out of power, and now the prince has a headache." ”
"After all, the book of the household department is a big fat shortage. The third prince who came in disguise also nodded, looked at Gu Xichao and was even more satisfied, thought for a moment, and then said: "I don't know which one the new Hubu Shangshu will be." ”
"Eighty percent are still on the prince's side. The general looked at the three princes and said, "After all, the manpower of the household department is basically the prince's party..."
"There's an idea in the next. Gu Xichao looked at the third prince and said.
"Hear what you think. The third prince looked at the third prince.
"If the third prince surrenders his identity, he will not be able to take the post of secretary of the household department in person. Gu Xichao said his idea.

Great Wilderness Mountain.
Ning Chen and Chang Yucun's faces were not very good-looking.
Because they finally found the three scouts who had disappeared before.
To be exact, it was discovered by Xiaoqing~
This is a hidden place that Sanyu has never found, and it can hide about more than ten people.
And the bodies of the three missing Great Wilderness City scouts are here.
His clothes had been stripped naked, his chest and abdomen had been cut open with a sharp blade, and his internal organs had been hollowed out.
It's just that the expressions on their faces are not a trace of hideousness, but there is some enjoyment in them.
It's weird.
It makes people's backs break out in a cold sweat.
Ning Chen and Chang Yucun were better, and the three who came with them had already subconsciously stuck together, and their expressions were also very vigilant, constantly patrolling around.
"I was dead for five or six days. Chang Yucun checked it and said resentfully: "It's not enough to kill people, they are so cruel!"
"The technique is clean. Ning Chen examined the bodies of the three people side by side, and then said: "Judging from the strength, angle, and length of the wound of the knife, the wounds of the three people are basically the same, what does this mean?"
It shows that this is a group of repeat offenders. Ning Chen paused, and then said: "They didn't do anything less about this kind of thing, but this time they might be pointing the finger at the Great Wilderness City." ”
"They must have a criminal record elsewhere. Ning Chen paused, and then said, "Let's go back first, and bring their bodies back as well." ”
