I'm a thousand years older than you

Wen Zihe and Guan Ning's trip was a bit of luck. They had just entered the village when they saw Second Uncle Bai carrying a package, looking around, as if he was about to go out.

Second Uncle Bai had stayed in Xijing for many years, probably recognized them two, and was about to leave with a guilty conscience, but Guan Ning pulled him back by his collar.

"My lord, I've finished what I need to say at the Sanlao Pavilion, and the Sanlao Pavilion didn't find anyone for us." Second Uncle Bai was a dark-skinned peasant-looking man, dressed in a shirt so washed that he couldn't see the color. He rubbed his hands together, looking a bit bitter, "You're here..."

"Just come and have a look." Wen Zihe said lightly, "Are you going out?"

"Oh... I went to the city to do some business, and I made an appointment, so it's not good to be late..." The meaning in Uncle Bai's words couldn't be clearer, unexpectedly that person didn't understand , looking at the door of his house, turned around and smiled at him: "I've come all this way, I'm a little thirsty."

So Second Uncle Bai had no choice but to open the door and invite the two people who are not young to come in.

"My lord, let's not make any detours anymore. You came here to ask me something, right? But I've finished what I have to say..." Seeing that Wen Zihe only drank tea for a long time and didn't speak, Second Uncle Bai couldn't hold back angry.

"Did you finish? I don't think so." Wen Zihe sank into a bamboo chair at this moment, lying down enjoying himself, squinting slightly at Second Uncle Bai, "For example, you didn't say that Bai Zhi held it in the end? What did you take?"

Since the other party didn't seem to have a very good psychological quality, he simply didn't detour and went straight in.

Second Uncle Bai was really not very good at disguising himself, so he froze for a moment, and then said, "That has nothing to do with Xiaozhi's disappearance."

"That's it...but why are you so sure that Bai Zhi can't be saved? Just with those two bloody snake scales?" Wen Zihe seemed to be interested in a small box on the table beside him, and stared at it carefully. After a while, he said, "I'm afraid you don't know that everyone wants the things in her hands, right? That person is not enough to steal things, but he still wants to kill people. It's really hateful... That little girl looks weak and her eyes are clean." , should be a good obedient boy, what a pity."

When he mentioned Bai Zhi, his tone slowed down a little, and he seemed soft and soft, which sounded very comfortable, but Guan Ning saw that Uncle Bai's face was pale, and his lips parted a few times, as if breathing through his nose was not enough Like.

I don't know if Wen Zihe's words touched Uncle Bai's tense strings. He took a deep breath, and then said as if he was enduring great pain, "That thing is 'Ming Jian', my lord. It should be known that after the great war thousands of years ago, all the monster races who participated in the war have more or less benefited. "Ming Jian" is the dragon's eyes, which can reflect the original shape of monsters. What we snake race got is it. "

Wen Zihe's expression darkened slightly.

The big battle that Second Uncle Bai mentioned was called the "Fighting of Darkness". After that, the monster clan lost more than half, and their vitality was seriously injured. Several prominent monster clans died as the last living thing in their family, and there was no blood circulation from then on.

In the few days after the end of the war, miasma filled the mountains and fields, and the real fire spit out by the fire phoenix burned day and night, roasting the living and the dead. In the eyes of mortals, the karmic fire hell is probably nothing more than this.

After the demon tribe paid half the price to kill the evil dragon, they took its eyes to make a mirror, made treasures out of dragon bones, dragon teeth, and dragon horns, and then disassembled the dragon's body into several pieces and sealed it with a bronze tripod. Crack down on several hills.

At this point, the monster clans from all walks of life began to form alliances, divide jurisdictions, and for generations took the Firebird clan who contributed the most in the encirclement and suppression war as the leader.

"Xiaozhi brought it here, I... don't worry about it." Second Uncle Bai continued hesitantly, "I told her earlier, don't delay on the way, come here after registration. Although Mingjian is no better than Longyazhi It's a sword... but it's more or less a treasure, and it will always attract people's attention."

"Since it is a baby of the Snake Clan family, why didn't your family send more people to send her over?" Wen Zihe glanced at Second Uncle Bai, "Or, people in my family have no idea that such a little girl stole her away?" their stuff?"

Seeing that Second Uncle Bai was silent, he pushed him a step further: "Think about it, now Bai Zhi may be saved. You brought her from an egg to a little girl, you won't have the heart to watch her die, right? She You betrayed the family because of you, and you want to take advantage of the time gap that the family is still in the dark, what do you do?"

"No, it's not." Second Uncle Bai raised his head suddenly, his chapped lips trembled, his eyes were full of fear, "I didn't harm Xiao Zhi, I didn't know they..."

"They?" Wen Zihe grasped the key point of Uncle Bai's words very sensitively, picked up the small golden box with fine patterns carved on the table, and asked, "The ones who kidnapped your wife...'They' ?"

This time, not only Second Uncle Bai, but also Guan Ning was shocked.

"Don't look at me, I guessed randomly." Wen Zihe smiled at Guan Ning, "But it looks like I guessed right."

He looked at the small box in his hand, it was a finely crafted powder box with a golden border, obviously not used by Second Uncle Bai.Since the other party can make Uncle Bai betray the Snake Clan, it is possible that he has something or someone who can threaten him.

Second Uncle Bai seemed to have forgotten what to do for a moment, he looked around the room out of focus, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.This time Wen Zihe was extremely patient, and waited until Second Uncle Bai spoke again without saying a word.

"They... I don't know who they are. They robbed my wife. They said they wanted me to exchange it with Mingjian, and they said they couldn't tell anyone."

"Very old-fashioned method." Wen Zihe commented, "Then you send a letter to Bai Zhi and ask her to steal the Mingjian. It was not a powerful treasure in the first place, so the guards are not strict, let alone a little girl. Take precautions. You raise her up, and she will naturally listen to you. What happened next?"

"Xiao Zhi said that she would arrive at five o'clock at the latest...but I waited until night, and she still hadn't come. I went to Sanlaoding...Your Excellency should know what happened afterwards." Second Uncle Bai still said Trembling uncontrollably, with a look of pain on his face, "Those people tied up my wife and killed Xiaozhi..."

Wen Zihe showed him a meaningful smile, Second Uncle Bai suddenly felt his heart sink, and heard the man say: "Since you are willing to betray the snake tribe and trick Bai Zhi to save your wife's life, how could you be here?" After a few words, I explained everything completely? I believe that you are sincere to your wife and Bai Zhi, but I am afraid that the other words are all made up? Is this what they taught you?"

These words fell on Second Uncle Bai's shoulders as if they weighed a thousand catties. He heard a word, and his shoulders became a little shorter. In the end, his whole body seemed to be pulled out of his bones, and he sat on the ground slumped.

Guan Ning looked at him, and then glanced at her young master, who still looked calm, as if everything was under control.So she silently felt inexplicable sympathy for Second Uncle Bai... Wouldn't it be nice to explain everything early in the morning?You have to be asked back and forth like teasing.

"My lord... I really can't hide it from you." Second Uncle Bai seemed to have given up on all the twists and turns, and explained everything, "Xiaozhi...that afternoon, I took Xiaozhi to find them, and it was in Guanghua By the pool in the middle of the road park, according to what they said, I gave the Mingjian to the leader. But the leader suddenly grabbed Xiaozhi..."

Second Uncle Bai seemed a little excited, he gasped for breath and couldn't continue, so Wen Zihe kindly helped him pick up the words: "You see that something is wrong, run away if you want to pull Bai Zhi out, and fight with them, I guess Guess, that snake scale is yours, right?"

Guan Ning couldn't help but interjected: "Young master, how did you guess it?"

She is good at stabbing people and killing people, but she is really not the material to solve the case. I can't see the guilty conscience under the cover-up of Second Uncle Bai, and I can't see where Wen Zihe pushed out so many things.

"Because he walks with a limp." Wen Zihe said, but didn't mention the rest of the reasons.

He just felt that second uncle Bai's love for Bai Zhi, even though he tricked her into showing the truth, he would not just watch Bai Zhi being taken away by those people, and when Second Uncle Bai mentioned those people, the fear in his eyes was too real , then it is very likely that he has personally experienced the strength of the other party.

"Yes... it's mine." While speaking, Second Uncle Bai changed into his original form, his upper body still maintained the appearance of an old man, but his lower body turned into a snake tail covered with hard scales.

There was a wound about seven inches long on the snake's tail, and the bone was visible in the depth. Almost all the snake scales around the wound fell off, and there were a few sticky ones, which fell off with the swing of the snake's tail.

"My cultivation level is not high, and I can't beat my opponent. I can only watch Xiaozhi being taken away by them, but they said that they want me to go to a place within today to bring my wife and Xiaozhi back. I was flustered and reported three times. Lao Ting, later remembered that my wife was still in their hands, so when I saw my lord, I still wanted to hide it... I hope my lord will forgive me."

"Excuse me, what does it have to do with you?" Wen Zihe glanced at him impatiently, "The most important thing you should worry about now is the lives of your wife and Bai Zhi, not helping them play us, you say Woolen cloth?"

This sentence seemed to be referring to Second Uncle Bai's adulterated rhetoric just now, and it seemed to have a deeper implication. After hearing this, Second Uncle Bai moved his lips twice, but did not make a sound.

Wen Zihe saw all this in his eyes, got up from the bamboo chair, patted Second Uncle Bai's shoulder lightly with his slender hand, and said lightly: "The routine questioning is over, if you want to go to the dragon's pool and tiger's lair alone... just go Yes. But I suggest you... go in the evening."

Then, without waiting for the other party's reaction, he put the powder case that he had been playing with on the table, and went out.
