Poor monks do not break the precepts

After all the people who should be punished have been dealt with, everyone went back to look for the traitor Ji Deqin, only to find that he had already taken advantage of the chaos and fled. dull.So Ji Deqin escaped, which made the Ji family breathe a sigh of relief.

The situation was flustered just now, so no one might notice Ji Deqin's move, and the family's face was finally saved.

The setting sun is gradually setting in the west during the fight, and the present night is as dark as ink, and the shadows of dead branches are swaying with the wind, like ghosts and monsters released in the middle of the night.

Most of the people sitting here are martial arts people, they are used to beating and killing, but now that they have no power to fight back, and their wealth and life are in the hands of others, they still have lingering fears afterward, so they don't look very good.

Temporarily entrusting Huai Mingmo to Mr. Bian Ji, Xu Sheng rushed to Master Ku Hai, pulled out the poisonous needle in his arm, and blamed himself: "Master, are you alright?"

Relying on Xu Sheng to force out the remaining poison, Fang Youli waved his hands and said, "Amitabha, it's okay. The needle is just coated with the numbness of ordinary cartilage, you don't need to worry about it."

The poison of the sea of ​​bitterness is so clear, the other people took the pulse out of nowhere, their faces did not show, but they had plans in their hearts. Although he can use internal force to force him, ninety percent of them are not related to him for no reason, so if they go out to save him, they will do it for themselves. A good reputation means nothing.He just thought about it, but before he had time to speak, the people outside the house strode forward with windy feet, and said boldly: "It seems that I came at the right time."

Huaxinglou searched for many corpses, but found no antidote. When he was frustrated, he heard Shu Muxi's voice and thought he was hallucinating. He raised his head in surprise and said, "Why are you here?"

Shu Muxi shook the cloth bag in her hand triumphantly, and the linen exuded a faint medicinal fragrance, "Not long after you left, Wen Song sent someone to buy outside the customs, and heard the drug dealer said that he had gone to a few women from the Western Regions and bought them all." Poppylaceae on the market. After thinking about it for a long time, she was really worried about you and asked me to come."

Xu Sheng snatched the cloth bag quickly with his hand, and after listening carefully for a long time, he didn't know how to prescribe it.Thanks to the tip of his eyes, he saw the little man hiding in the corner looking at him viciously, jumped over there in twos and ones, handed over the medicine bag respectfully, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Xun, how do you use this herbal medicine? "

Xun Kewen seldom drank alcohol, and on today's occasion, he was worried that everyone would drink too much. He planned to prescribe two hangover soup and Xiaoshi San after the banquet, so he didn't drink half a sip, and he didn't think he would avoid the disaster of poisoning.He picked up the rubbing herb, crushed it with three fingers and smelled it carefully, and he came up with an idea after a while.

Steward Lin winked, and asked Wushang's maid to clear the table, and asked the servant to quickly fetch pens and ink and bring them to Xun Kewen. After he finished writing the prescription, he quickly sent his trusted subordinates to the town to buy medicinal materials.

And because he was worried that Huiji Lianxin would fall into the trap, Mr. Ji thought about it and asked Ku Hai to accompany him on the trip. Ku Hai understood Mr. Ji's thoughts and readily agreed.

After detoxifying everyone, it was Dongfang Xiwei's dew, and the Ji family had time to deal with the wounded in the mansion. Fortunately, this round of Huanzhai mainly rushed to the front yard, and the backyard casualties were not heavy, most of them were flesh and blood For a small injury, after bandaging it for a period of time, it will be fine.After getting settled inside and out, the Hermitage Villa gradually returned to its former peace, and the maids and servants in the villa gradually tidied up the messy place.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the Wanting Pavilion came to report again, Zheng Fengnian and Luo Chen, who were guarding the main house, passed out in the room, and Xin Li collapsed by the secret door.Huai Mingmo secretly thought that it was not good, so he hurried back immediately. About half a minute later, he bowed his head and went back to the Songzhao Pavilion, asking for punishment, "Please punish me, my mother, my son didn't take good care of me, and lost the Xingxiu Sword Manual gone."

It just so happened that Xu Sheng was in the Wan Ting Hall at this time, hearing the words, he said with a mocking smile: "This sound is well used, and she never let herself go back at a loss."

Mr. Ji put his hand to his lips and coughed lightly, squinting his eyes and smiling, but because of the tense cold face of his elder sister, he said solemnly: "Lian Xin Hui Ji is really difficult to deal with. Has anyone found out who did it?" ?”

Huai Mingmo hurried back and forth, and before he had time to find out, he coughed twice, and hurriedly said: "Son, I'll go back and investigate strictly."

Concubine Ji was a little flustered and dissatisfied, so she couldn't help but call an old man in Huaimingmo, asking him to assist in the investigation.

Before Huai Mingmo stepped out of the house, he was stopped by Ji Nian who walked in.Putting his hands on Huai Mingmo's shoulders, he carefully observed Huai Mingmo's face, because the injury was not healed, he was still pale and haggard, and his whole body was distracted.

Ji Sushan, who was following behind Ji Nianxian, also clearly saw Huai Mingmo's face, and said distressedly: "Let Jiang Dian search the villa first, if the thief is still in the villa, then search all the way, and you can always find the sword manual. The thieves have already left, and it will take about a day or two to find them out."

Ji Nian first let go of Huai Mingmo, took two steps forward, and lovingly took two pictures of Xu Sheng as an elder, and said with a serious expression: "Take this kid, he has a specialty in art."

Xu Sheng was suddenly pointed out, he was stunned for a while, and wanted to refuse, but seeing Huai Mingmo's reaction, he couldn't get the words out of his mouth.Concubine Ji doesn't like living in vain so far, she hears that she wants to argue with reason, but she notices the reactions of her brothers and sisters, and her heart turns cold.She glanced at the old lady Ji, and found that the old lady had a slightly unhappy face and didn't say a word, which shows that the old lady's attitude has also changed a little.

Trying to suppress her temper, Concubine Ji glanced at her confidant again.

Tan Chiyan is the former deputy head of the Xuanji Pavilion, the old man next to the imperial concubine, the master gave a glance and immediately understood: "I don't think he should be allowed to investigate, in case he is cooperating with others and performing many false appearances, in order to win the trust of the Ji family , handing it over to him to investigate, wouldn’t it mean opening the door and stealing?”

What happened last night is vivid in his mind, Ji Duorui knew that the words were ordered by the noble concubine Ji, but he didn't want to say clearly whether the noble concubine was wrong, so he said with a smile: "Everyone has seen what happened not long ago, and you can clearly distinguish loyalty from inferiority. Manager Qin is too worried."

With someone backing him up, Tan Chiyan didn't take Ji Duorui seriously, and replied with a smile: "Master Ji always understands the truth that treachery is like loyalty?"

Although Ji Duorui had a kind temper, but he was ridiculed by his servants, his face was not pleasant, but because of his status as the elder sister, he could only hold back his anger and did not explode on the spot, almost crushing the teacup.

Seeing that Concubine Ji didn't reprimand him, Ji Sushan frowned, and became more and more disappointed with her. He said coldly, "How does Director Qin think this matter should be handled?"

Tan Chiyan must have made up his mind a long time ago, and said without hesitation for a moment: "According to my opinion, first lock him up in the courtyard." He laughed and said, "This is just in case, I believe Master Xu Sheng will understand."

Xu Sheng didn't care what he said, he lowered his head to play the detoxification game with Xiao Ye Yuan, when he heard this, he raised his head, his lips turned purple and gradually blackened, and his forehead was covered with bean-sized cold sweat, which really scared people.Xun Kewen immediately scolded Ye Yuan and asked him to hand over the antidote. Even Xiao Ye Yuan was a little scared, and hurriedly searched for the antidote in his secret pocket.

"Kids are very playful, what do you scold him for?" Xu Sheng raised his left hand slightly, used his internal force to urge out the poisonous blood, and used his fingertips to cut a gash in his left middle finger, so that the poisonous blood gushed out. After dripping, apply a transparent ointment to the wound.

Xiao Yeyuan gently pulled Xu Sheng's sleeves, and hid behind him, Xu Sheng cooperated to protect the little guy behind him from time to time, not allowing anyone to touch his fingers at all.Suddenly Xu Sheng felt a furry paw stepped on his palm, and in a blink of an eye, two feet stained with ink were stepped on his arm sleeves, Xu Sheng turned his head to see the thick fur fox, stood up quickly and almost fell Stumbling, he said angrily, "You brat."

"Hey hey." Xiao Ye Yuan fled Xu Sheng's arrest with the rice in his arms, he was caught within two strokes, kicked his feet off the ground, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Uncle Xu, I will let me go down, don't dare next time, really I dare not." While joking, he glanced slightly at Tan Chiyan with his eyes, with innocence still on his face.

Putting down Ye Yuan carefully, Xu Sheng still ignored Tan Chiyan, leaving him aside, chatting leisurely with Xun Kewen about medical skills.

Perhaps it was because Xu Sheng was somewhat similar to his adopted daughter, Xun Kewen treated him very close, and Xu Sheng was proficient in medical skills, so the old and the young could talk freely together.

Tan Chiyan didn't expect that Xu Sheng would be so rude when Concubine Ji was around, and he didn't know if he was out of control, or because his eyes were above the top, so he put down and said: "Master Xu Sheng is too guilty to answer, or he didn't take your mother's attention at all. Looking around, it's so bold and presumptuous."

Xu Sheng has been tired of Concubine Ji for a long time, and has always gone her own way, ignoring the so-called sophistication of the world, staring and smiling lightly: "Is it the concubine's intention to detain people without evidence?"

"Stupid things, don't retreat outside." Aunt Tang served beside Concubine Ji, and drove Tan Chiyan out with a low voice.

Concubine Ji picked up the tea and blew lightly, smiled for a long time and said, "Tan Chiyan is eager to grab people's attention, so it is inevitable that he will be a little reckless, I hope you don't worry about it."

Xu Sheng smiled but didn't answer. Compared to Ji Nianxian, he was much more respectful, even refusing was enough courtesy, "Uncle Ji looks highly, I appreciate it. It's just that I'm an outsider after all, so I really shouldn't meddle in this matter, lest Let’s talk about it in the future.”

"Brother, this matter can't be forced." Mr. Ji sensed his temper, and said firmly: "Ming Mo is going to be in trouble, or he has no idea, even if he thinks he won't stand idly by."

Ji Duorui said coldly, "Brother, what are you going to do with that kid from Deloitte?"

The lively atmosphere was instantly as cold as the temperature outside the house, and Ji's family members were filled with anger and shame, especially Ji Nian, who was so ashamed that he wanted to dig into the cracks in the ground. He gave birth to such a rebellious son, and the six relatives refused to admit that they harmed the family. wise.

Ji Nian first waved his sleeves and hands behind his back, and said coldly: "Second sister, if you catch that unfilial son, just follow the family rules, no! Deal with it according to the rules of the world, if you keep it in the future, it will only dishonor the reputation of the hidden world villa."

When it was time for breakfast, Bai Zhaorong and An Jingyue were watching in the small kitchen, and now Sheng Sheng brought it in person, just after entering the door and hearing the harsh words, and seeing the gloomy faces of everyone, Bai Zhaorong said with a light smile: "My nephew, Xu is There are difficulties, and I did such a stupid thing. Whether to break the family rules, or to be expelled from Ji's house, and wait for someone to find out and ask the reason, then we can make a judgment."

Mr. Ji smiled and said slowly: "Second sister-in-law is right, it won't be too late to make a decision after finding out the person and making a thorough investigation."

The breakfast has been hastily eaten, and there are still a lot of things to do in the house. After Mr. Ji assigned the tasks, everyone immediately went to work inside and outside according to their duties.Huai Mingmo was in a hurry to investigate, but he didn't even say a word to Xu Sheng when he left.

Xu Sheng accompanied Xiao Ye Yuan to play in the courtyard of the Wan Ting Pavilion for a long time, when he slowly returned to the guest room in Xi Yuan, someone broke into the empty door in the room, the thief even left a note on the table, he went up to pick it up. After seeing it, he immediately turned dark and rushed to the Wanting Pavilion.

The servants in the Wanting Pavilion were busy carrying boxes, Xu Sheng hurriedly jumped in front of people to block the way, "Where is your master?"

After Zheng Fengnian woke up, he went to take care of the courtyard. When he came out, he saw Xu Sheng was in a stalemate with the people in the courtyard, and he felt a little embarrassed.

Xin Li walked out without a word of greeting to Xu Sheng, went up and waved his hands and said, "What are you doing in a daze? Move in."

Xu Sheng stared at his big boxes of New Year gifts, "Where's the Huaiming Mo people? Just grab my things and leave, like a robber."

The owner of the pavilion suddenly became self-willed, regardless of his orders, he sent someone to move the house full of things. Now that the owner came to the door, he would never stand in the front and be scolded.Xinli took people in happily, shirked responsibility, and showed a loyal servant who obeyed the orders of the master.

The busy work in the courtyard is in full swing. The instigator is enjoying himself while listening to Tao Pavilion, holding a brush and drawing, occasionally asking Zang Li a few words next to him, and sometimes frowning and showing off his face.Seeing his appearance, Xu Sheng was so annoyed that he strode up to the desk, slapped his palms on the table, and opened his mouth to scold, but when he looked down and saw Huai Mingmo's painting, he swallowed suddenly, and remained in a daze for a long time.

"Are you painting... me?" Xu Sheng was not quite sure, because the person in the painting resembled him, but his expression was quite different.

Huai Mingmo happened to finish the last stroke, and said with a smile, "Isn't it like that?"

The person in the painting has a peaceful and quiet face, not as thorny as himself, Xu Sheng smiled wryly: "How can I be like this."

Huai Mingmo put down his pen and said with a smile, "It will be like this in the future."

Following Huai Mingmo back to the main house, Xu Sheng's face was warm, his eyes soft like spring, "Sometimes I really suspect that you are pretending to be a pig and a tiger, pretending to be blind."

"Some people look at the flowers with their eyes in the fog, but I look at the bright light in the dark with my heart, but it is clearer." Huai Mingmo replied lightly. She stretched her arms around Xu Sheng's shoulders, "Let's go, go and see your new house."

The so-called new house is actually the vacant room on the other side of the main house. Huai Mingmo asked Xinli to open a warehouse, find a whole set of chicken wing wood furniture, and choose the furnishings according to his own preferences.Xu Sheng entered the room and took a closer look, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, only the four pots of bare wooden branches on the flower stand were rather abrupt.

Xu Sheng walked to the nearest flower stand, leaned forward to take a closer look, he was astonished beyond words, "This..."

Huaiming Moping retreated the others, leaving only Xinli, and said with a light smile: "I asked Xinli to find an experienced gardener and go to Wuwangya. The gardener dug for a long time and found these four roots. They were still well preserved, or they could be fed, so Xin Li decided to bring them all back.”

Xu Sheng was moved for a while, and then thought of the lonely grave for a long time, his face was a little gloomy and he said: "Thank you."

Knowing that he was sad, Huai Mingmo hurriedly changed the topic and said with a smile: "Let's just say thank you verbally? You have to give something in return, so that you can be worthy of my hard work, right?"

Seeing the smirks on the faces of the master and the servant, how could Xu Sheng not guess the twists and turns in their stomachs, he helplessly pushed Huai Mingmo, "Go, go and see the secret room where you hide the sword manual." After falling, he found a way out for himself: "Let's talk about it first, I will only accompany you to look at the upper eye, but I may not be smarter than you, and I can see why."

Huai Mingmo thought this fox was too cunning, but said in his mouth: "It's better to have you by my side than to fumble around by myself."

Xu Sheng stood outside the secret passage door in silence for a moment, he already knew what he knew, he grabbed Huai Mingmo and said: "From last night to now, four or five hours have passed, it is too difficult to catch up with this bastard. I am afraid that the sword manual Send it to Huiji Lianxin as early as possible, if you still remember the content in the book, you might as well take precautions earlier, so that you can go and retrieve the Xingxiu sword manual."

After hearing this, Xinli was not as indifferent as Huai Mingmo, he jumped up and raised his eyebrows and said, "Really did it with empty hands?" Before Xu Sheng could respond, he was full of doubts again, "This is the authentic way that Lu was invited by the owner of the Hermitage Villa back then. Ben, how could that master's painstaking masterpiece be broken so casually."

"That's really a coincidence, this master Lu Ban's direct descendant and grandson, Master Qin's beloved disciple who has been around for a long time, naturally gave him all he has." Xu Sheng shrugged his shoulders and replied, seeing the two people around him getting darker and darker. face, grinning unkindly.

Although Xu Sheng helped him heal his wounds, Huai Mingmo's face was still a little pale, and he gasped heavily when he spoke urgently, "Do you have a way to find him?"

Xu Sheng slightly shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, helped Huai Mingmo to lie down on the imperial concubine's couch by the window, "I never take the initiative to look for him, usually he comes to provoke me more." Touching his chin with his fingers, he hesitated and said: "You can Send someone to visit Qingzhou Prefecture, Zhu Ling once mentioned to me that she occasionally saw him in the gambling houses of Qingzhou Prefecture."

"You immediately send someone to find Miaoshou Kongkonger, remember not to embarrass him." Huai Mingmo ordered again: "The main thing is to return to the sword manual and find out where Lianxin Huiji is."

The long eyelashes fluttered, and Xu Sheng said with concentration: "Actually, there is no need to go to Qingzhou Prefecture."

Huai Mingmo seemed to have a sympathy with him, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "Send Luo Chen and the others to help Guard Jiang guard the lake prison."

Xinli thought about it carefully, and immediately replied clearly: "Don't worry, Pavilion Master, not a single mosquito or fly will be put into the lake prison."
