Ling Yujin nodded, and pulled Yun Haoxi into the room with the closed door just now, and saw Ye Si lying quietly on the bed at a glance.Ordinarily, it was inappropriate for two young men to appear in Ye Si's room, but the appearance of Ye Si's poison last night, although the servants did not see it, but Ye Si's father and mother saw it.

Now Ye Si's father really doesn't have the extra energy to think about whether to avoid suspicion or not, he just wants to let his daughter recover quickly.After entering Ye Si's room, Yun Haoxi immediately asked Ling Yujin with his eyes if he could make a sound, even if Ling Yujin understood that Yun Haoxi already knew about it.

Ling Yujin said in a low voice: "I gave her medicine to keep her from waking up. We shouldn't have any problem talking softly."

Yun Haoxi immediately asked: "Her poison should have flared up around midnight, why did Uncle Ling stay in Ye's house until that time?"

As soon as Ling Yujin heard it, she knew that Yun Haoxi knew a lot more about this matter than herself, and immediately said: "The whole town knows that Ye Si is the girl who was sent to Yaojiazhai. She dare not enter the city during the day, so I will Wait with her until night. After we sneaked into the city, we went directly to Ye's house. Because Ye Si was dressed in men's clothes and it was dark, the servant who opened the door didn't see through it. After meeting Ye Si's father, how did I save her daughter's life? After repeating it, although his father was very grateful, he was worried about the criticism from the townspeople, so he hid his daughter. Since it was late when he sent Ye Si back, and the mountain road was difficult to travel in the dark, Father Ye sent Ye Si to thank me. I stayed at Ye's house. But when I arrived at Zi, Ye Si suddenly went crazy and described it strangely. At that time, only Ye's father and Ye's mother were present. Fortunately, I stayed at Ye's house. What happened. After I controlled Ye Si with some medicines unique to the High Heaven Pavilion, I realized that this matter must not be that simple, and I was worried about you. But I can't leave Ye's house. If I leave, no one can control Ye Si But I believe that if I don't show up for a long time, you will definitely come to me."

When entering the back door of Ye's house just now, Yun Haoxi noticed that Father Ye's arm was injured, so he asked: "The wound on Father Ye's arm is because of Ye Si?"

Ling Yujin said: "That's right, before I arrived, Ye Si injured him first, the wound was so deep that the bones were visible, it was very terrifying."

Now Yun Haoxi is very afraid that Ye Si's madness will scare the snake, and asked: "She went crazy last night, I'm afraid her shouts will be loud, how can I hide this from the surrounding neighbors?"

Ling Yujin said: "It's okay, I have already sorted out the statement with Ye's father and Ye's mother last night. They only said that Ye's mother was worried about her daughter's suffering. She was in a trance and screamed in her dream. Today they dismissed all the subordinates. Man, the silk cloth shop is temporarily closed because the shopkeeper lost his beloved daughter, and this matter should not be leaked for a while. Well, now tell me everything you know."

After hearing Ling Yujin's words, Yun Haoxi was temporarily relieved, and told Ling Yujin everything that happened after they separated.

After hearing this, Ling Yujin frowned deeply, pondered for a moment and said, "Did the people from Yaojiazhai follow you?"

Yun Haoxi said: "No, I have checked carefully."

Ling Yujin said: "This matter is complicated. Let's go to Xiao Shixiang's mansion first tonight. Wait a while, and I will give Ye Si some medicine to make sure she won't wake up for a while. Let's go to the town to see What is Xiao Shixiang's reputation and character?"

Yun Haoxi watched Ling Yujin administer medicine to the girl who was lying quietly on the bed, recalling the scene when he first met her yesterday.Although she was trapped in the wooden box at that time, at least she could talk and laugh, but today she can only lie lifeless on the bed, or scream like a ghost, which is really embarrassing.Ling Yujin lightly stuffed a small ball of cotton into each of Ye Si's ears to ensure better sound insulation.

After finishing everything, the two of them walked out of the room and found Father Ye. Ling Yujin said, "Brother Ye, Ye Si has been poisoned deeply. Never approach her room, let alone make any noise around her room. I With some measures just now, she probably won’t wake up for a while, now I’m going out with my cousin to find clues to the antidote, and try to come back as soon as possible.”

Ye's father and Ye's mother are both businessmen in a small place, and they have never seen anything in the big world. The appearance of their daughter when she went crazy last night has scared them out of their wits.At this moment, I don't know what else to do besides expressing my gratitude with tears in my eyes and doing as Ling Yujin ordered.

Xiluo Town, adjacent to the foot of Lushan Mountain, is a small town, and it takes less than a day to walk from south to north.The town's fixed population is not too large, so Ling Yujin and Yun Haoxi wandered the streets for a while, and chose two or three places with relatively dense crowds, intending to learn about Mayor Xiao from the side of these places first.

Since it was almost noon when Yun Haoxi arrived at Ye's house, and it happened to be lunch time, the two of them first went to the most famous Yunlai Restaurant in the town that they had chosen just now.Xiluo Town was not well-known at first, but due to its relatively important geographical location, there were many passers-by coming and going in the town, and the restaurants were bustling with people.The business here is very good, the food is good and cheap, Ling Yujin usually has a headache when he sees the crowds and voices in the lobby.When he went to any restaurant, he would look for the cleanest place, but today he came to inquire about news, so he had to bury himself in the crowd.

It was lunch time, and the restaurant was full of people inside and out, and Xiao Er was so busy that he kept walking around looking for voices.The celestial figures like Ling Yujin and Yun Haoxi would make people stop and watch even in a big city, let alone such a small town.

As soon as Ling Yujin and Yun Haochen entered the lobby, they immediately attracted the attention of many people, and the sharp-eyed Xiaoer also ran over immediately, and asked enthusiastically: "Guest officer, please come inside, you two are sharp-eyed." Do you still stay at the hotel?"

Yun Haoxi said, "Let's have lunch."

Looking at the description of the two people's clothes, temperament and demeanor, Xiaoer said very discerningly: "Young masters, please follow me to the second floor, where there is a cleaner place."

Ling Yujin said casually: "No need, the lobby is very nice, just help us find a seat."

Xiao Er was stunned, and quickly scanned the lobby on the first floor with his eyes, and found that a table of guests in the middle was about to check out and leave.However, being in the middle of a crowd obviously didn't fit the temperament of the two people in front of them, so they immediately said with a smile on their faces: "Guest officer, look, there are more customers in the small shop at this time, and there is only one empty table left in the lobby on the first floor." Yes, it was just vacated, how about the two of you..."

Xiaoer originally wanted to say, why don't you two consider going upstairs, but Ling Yujin cast a glance towards the middle of the lobby, and said lazily, "Let's just take that table."

When Xiaoer heard this, he immediately responded, "Okay, this way please."

After Ling Yujin and Yun Haoxi were seated, Xiao Er immediately served tea. The two of them looked at the tea in the cup, and there were a few white tea stalks floating in the clear and light color. Put the tea aside.

Ling Yujin said to Xiao Er: "Let's serve a few special dishes from your restaurant, two meat and two vegetables are enough."

Xiao Er heard this, and immediately said: "No problem, guest officer, please drink some tea first, and Xiao Er will go and place an order for you."

Xiaoer quickly ran down, and while waiting for the food to be served, Ling Yujin naturally blended into the noisy environment of the lobby, listening to all kinds of people talking about the news in the town.If you want to say that the most sensational thing in Xiluo City is how Yaojiazhai insisted on the strong and bullied the weak, how the mayor Xiao was not afraid of life and death, and fought wits and courage with the enemy for all the people in the town.It was all praises of Xiao Shixiang's merits, and the strangers passing by were also happy to listen to this incident as a story, and occasionally scolded Yaojiazhai's insanity, and praised Mayor Xiao's benevolence and righteousness.

Since Ling Yujin had limited time to leave Ye Si, and they had already learned a lot in the restaurant, they decided to go to another tea house and return to Ye's house.It was Weishi, the busiest time of the day for the tea house. I heard from a young man that there was an old storyteller in the tea house, but he didn't come because of family business.However, the number of guests who come here to drink tea has not decreased because of this. Most of the people who come here are locals, and occasionally there are a few foreigners.

There were a lot of people in the teahouse, Ling Yujin and Yun Haoxi sat in the center, and the tables around them were also full of people.The two ordered a pot of Liu'an Guapian, because they couldn't drink the tea at lunch, and they felt that it was a kind of enjoyment to drink this not-so-superior Lu'an Guapian.

While drinking tea, the two listened to all directions, and when they were about to drink their second cup, they heard a table not far away discussing the screams from the Ye family last night.In fact, the voices of the three people at this table were very low, and only those at the same table could hear them. In the bustling tea house, they would not attract the attention of others at all.But first of all, the two of them have good internal energy. Although Yun Haoxi is still young, his internal energy is very pure, let alone Ling Yujin.Secondly, these two people came here to inquire about news, so they naturally listened to the voices that they thought were useful.

Ling Yujin withdrew her lazy gaze and turned her head to look at the table not far away. The person who was talking at this time was a strong man in his 30s.At the same table as him was a young man with the appearance of a scholar with greasy hair and a pink face, and an elder who was over fifty years old and dressed as a businessman.

I only heard the elder among the three, who was called Uncle Yu, said: "The woman's screams last night were too horrific. Boss Ye's family are all good people, but it's a pity that good people don't get rewarded."

The strong man surnamed Li also said: "Yes, if you say that the Ye family is really unlucky, Boss Ye and his wife are honest people, and there is only such a daughter under their knees, and they were forced to give it to bandits.

The scholar surnamed Zhou said: "Brother Li, don't talk nonsense. Although those girls were sent to Yao's village, no one saw the bodies. It can't be concluded that they all died."

The strong man surnamed Li said: "Not dead? Impossible, if not dead, how come it has been almost three years, and I haven't seen any of them come back. Bandits kill, and you can see the corpse , maybe just throw it somewhere. Didn’t you listen to the mayor, how abominable those bandits are.”

The scholar surnamed Zhou frowned slightly, and said, "It's strange to say that the Yao family village was not established just now. Why did it live in peace with our town three years ago?"

Uncle Yu said: "In fact, Yao Haotian, the owner of Yaojiazhai, can be regarded as a hero in the world. As a bandit, he never robbed his house, and he always helped rob the rich and help the poor. Five years ago, when I went out to buy goods, I was arrested when I returned home. A group of gangsters followed me. They probably wanted to find a secluded place to attack, so they followed me into Lushan. At that time, the master of Yao Village saved my life and taught those gangsters a lesson. Don't try to do evil here. After all, he saved my life. I took out a lot of silver taels to express my gratitude, but Village Master Yao didn't accept it. So three years ago, when we heard what Mayor Xiao said, I can't believe it."

The strong man surnamed Li said: "Uncle Yu, you know people, you know the face, you don't know the heart, don't let the village owner deceive you, besides, it is also possible that the original village owner died, and the new village owner said no." Right thing."

The scholar surnamed Zhou said: "Speaking of the mayor, I think of something, and I find it very strange."

The strong man surnamed Li immediately became interested, and urged, "What's the matter, tell me quickly and listen."

The scholar surnamed Zhou said: "The year before last, my aunt's daughter was drawn in the lottery, and my uncle died early. Their mother and daughter have always depended on each other. This news is like a bolt from the blue to my aunt. My aunt was so sad that I begged me to go to the mayor. Please ask him to go to Guangyun City, which is the closest to our town, and seek help from Wuyingmen, a martial arts family there, and ask them to send masters to destroy or surrender Yaojiazhai. At that time, the mayor of the town listened to my words and thought about it for a long time. Finally, I decided to go to Wuyingmen in person. My aunt was very happy when she learned about it, and said that if there were no accidents and the trip would not be delayed on the way, my cousin would not have to be sent to Yaojiazhai. Later, the mayor did as scheduled I came back, but the people from the Wuyingmen did not come. The mayor said that they were a famous sect and would not participate in such things as killing bandits. No matter how much the mayor begged, they would not send anyone. In the end, my cousin was still Sent to Yaojiazhai, my aunt was also hit hard because of this incident, and she has some mental problems."

The strong man surnamed Li sighed: "I know about this. Your cousin is the second girl to be sent. After this incident, the mayor of our town has been taking care of your aunt, which is really rare." good man."

The scholar surnamed Zhou said hesitantly: "It is indeed the case, but there is one thing that is very strange. A year later, I went to Guangyun City for business, and accidentally met a disciple of Wuyingmen through friends. Only then did I learn that Mayor Xiao had never been there. I also felt that something was wrong, so I checked again and again. The disciple said with certainty that Mayor Xiao had never been there. Later, I wanted to ask Wu Ying personally through the introduction of that disciple. Sect Master, but at that time, it was a troubled time for Wuyin Sect, so this matter was left alone."

Uncle Yu frowned and said, "You mean the mayor promised you to go to Wuyingmen for help on the surface, but he didn't actually go?"

The scholar surnamed Zhou said: "I'm not sure, I don't know if that disciple remembered it wrong, but I know that the mayor did not show up in Xiluo Town during that period of time. If he didn't go to Guangyun City, where did he go?" Now, why would you lie?"

Uncle Yu sighed, and said, "I just don't think Yao's village is full of heinous bandits. I always feel that this matter is a bit strange, hey."

The strong man surnamed Li said: "I think no matter what, at least so far, everyone in our town is safe and sound, so we should thank the mayor. But after listening to you say these things, I also think of one thing, this I have never told anyone about this matter, and you must keep it a secret."

The scholar surnamed Zhou asked curiously: "Brother Li, tell me quickly, what is it?"

The strong man surnamed Li said: "Three years ago, didn't I help the mayor's house to deliver food for a while? One day after delivering the food, I suddenly felt sick to my stomach and was anxious to go to the toilet. The manager took me there. .Maybe I stayed in there for too long. When I came out, the person in charge had already left. When I came here, my mind was on my stomach, and I didn’t pay attention to how I got there, so I got lost. I hit by mistake When I walked to the garden of the mayor’s house, I found a secret passage. Out of curiosity, I walked in, but within a few steps, I heard a shrill woman’s cry from inside, which made me turn around and run away. Go out. Later, the steward found me near the back door, reprimanded me a few times, and let me leave."

The scholar surnamed Zhou asked: "Brother Li, when did this happen?"

The strong man surnamed Li said: "Probably three months before the first girl was sent to Yao's village."

Uncle Yu asked, "And then, did you enter that secret passage again?"

The strong man surnamed Li said helplessly: "No, I don't know why the mayor stopped letting me deliver food to their house, and I never went into the mayor's house again."

Ling Yujin estimated the time, the effect of the medicine was almost over, and Ye Si might wake up at any time, so he winked at Yun Haoxi, and the two left the tea money and left the tea house.

On the way back to Ye's house, Yun Haoxi said, "What do you think, Uncle Ling?"

Ling Yujin smiled evilly and said, "Isn't it very rewarding, let's go on a secret road adventure tonight."

Seeing Ling Yujin's expression, Yun Haoxi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and said: "I feel that after leaving Yuncang Sword Sect, Uncle Ling has become more and more alive."

Ling Yujin gave Yun Haoxi a sideways look, and said, "Instead of studying me, why don't you think about what's in the secret passage of the mayor's house."

Yun Haoxi thought for a while and said, "There are still five people in Yaojiazhai in the town. Should we notify them of our actions tonight?"

Ling Yujin said: "No, tonight's action must not startle the snake, not to mention whether their martial arts are good or not, even now there is no accurate conclusion on what is right and what is wrong. Letting them know in advance will only cause bad things."

Back at Ye's house, everything was as usual, and everything was very quiet. Seeing Ling Yujin, Ye's father immediately asked, "Young Master Ling, have you found the antidote?"

Ling Yujin comforted: "Brother Ye, don't worry, there are already some clues about the antidote. After a while, you will definitely be able to find it."

The two then walked to Ye Si's room, and there was silence around them. Yun Haoxi gently pushed open the door, and as soon as they entered, they saw Ye Si walking unconsciously in the room.Just looking at her face, she was no different from an ordinary girl, but her big black and bright eyes were now only dead white.
