Chapter 88 City
On this day in Shicheng, the raging sunlight was finally covered by layers of dark clouds. The roads were full of patrolling guards. The originally bustling streets were silent, as if shrouded in invisible terror.
Two women dressed in Central Plains led their horses into the city gate, and immediately carried silk red dates on their backs, looking like ordinary merchants.But even so, they waited for a long time in front of the city gate, and after rounds of investigations, they paid the commercial tax and allowed them to enter the city.
"problem occurs?"
One of the women asked her companion in a low voice, they had been to Shicheng, where merchants from the Central Plains and Western Regions were connected, and the interrogation had never been so strict, so they couldn't help feeling suspicious.
"Probably." The companion raised his hand and took a closer look, "Have you noticed that when we were questioned just now, the gatekeeper looked at our hands specifically, what do you think this is for?"
"Catch a thief? Could it be that the palace was stolen?"
"Perhaps. I don't know what good things King Wen has hidden in the palace. You are good at lightness. You can go in later to see what new things you have."
"We're here this time to deal with business. Now let's find Shenglan and the others first."
These two people were Xueqi and Feiqi from Shiliuqili. They heard that Fang Shenglan and the others needed help in Shicheng, so they rushed over to help.
They set off from the capital city, and it took them more than ten days to walk for half a month.There were many twists and turns on the road, and the two had to walk around until they reached the stone city before throwing off the people who followed them.
"People from Zhenbei Mansion, are you sure you got rid of it?" Fei Qi looked around anxiously, fearing that someone would find her trace.
Xueqi said: "Don't worry, the person must have been thrown away. But don't you think it's strange? Even if the emperor wants to arrest us and go back, isn't it a bit too strange to send someone here?"
Fei Qi sighed: "I'm afraid that their target is not us, but Shenglan. The people of Zhenbei Mansion guard the palace tightly, and they don't know what's going on with the emperor now, and whether he still has his descendants. trick."
The two talked in a low voice and walked along the desolate path.It was originally a morning market here, but at this time, the doors and windows of every house were tightly closed. From the shop near the street, there was a heart-piercing cry from the attic, which sounded a little scary.
"what happened?"
Feiqi watched Xueqi stop suddenly, frowned and looked at the stone road on the ground, her horse also stopped, exhaled from her nose, and stepped back two steps with her hooves.
"It smells of blood."
Xueqi squatted down and swept away the dust on the bluestone board with his hands. As expected, a drop of dark red blood appeared in front of his eyes. Xueqi touched it, then looked up at the shop facing the street in front of him, and said, "Rufei , you go to Shenglan first, I'll go and see what happened here."
People outside Shicheng are in panic, and the inns where Su Jingyun and the others live have not been peaceful recently.There are many and mixed people coming and going here, Fang Shenglan chose this place, and changed his appearance again, in order not to expose their traces.Police officer Xu from Zhenbei Mansion didn't know if he was still looking for her, and although the envoy was in Shicheng, there was no news for a long time.At first, several people knew that they needed to keep a low profile, but the Saintess and Lin Qi made a fuss, and the place exploded.
Lin Qi ignored the saint, and the saint tried every means to pester her. Lin Qi continued to keep a distance, but the saint was not so patient. She didn't dare to vent her anger on Lin Qi, and only suffered for the passers-by here. A, B, C, D.In addition, there were guards in plain clothes coming to patrol from time to time recently, Fang Shenglan was very distressed, and wished to ask Su Jingyun to pick up a brick and knock the saint unconscious, so as to make the world peaceful.
On this day, the Holy Maiden had another quarrel, Fang Shenglan managed to persuade her to study the scriptures in peace in the bedroom, and after a while, the door rang again.
Su Jingyun was upset, put her hands on her hips, and shouted to the door: "Let me tell you, my patience is limited, so what should you do? If you make trouble again, I will lock you up and stuff it in the cat's litter box. Look at you!" Do you dare to make a fuss?"
"Shenglan, it's me, Rufei."
"..." When Su Jingyun heard that she was not a saint, and still called her so affectionately, she turned her head vigilantly and asked Fang Shenglan at the table, "Who is this person?"
Fang Shenglan lazily put the pen on the inkstone and said, "Go and open the door, this is your Seventh Master Uncle."
"..."
Anyway, there are sixteen riders in Yanyun, Su Jingyun's family has countless uncles, Su Jingyun ran to open the door, and said warmly to the woman at the door: "Uncle Seven, it's you!"
The woman outside the door was obviously stunned: "Who are you?"
"Uncle Seventh, I am Su Jingyun!"
"Jingyun, hello, hello."
Feiqi has a soft temper and doesn't like to tease people as much as Linqi does. Su Jingyun is so enthusiastic, but she feels a little embarrassed.
"Okay, we're all on our own, so the polite words will be avoided." Fang Shenglan stood up, walked over to hold Feiqi's hand, "I'm finally waiting for you, hey, where is Ruixue?"
"Stone City is under martial law today. When we came to look for you, we met a family who had a funeral and found bloodstains on the road in front of their house. Ruixue was afraid of accidents, so she went to find out what happened."
"That's it." Fang Shenglan nodded, "In the past two days, except for a few murder cases, there are guards everywhere in Shicheng, so we dare not go out. We can only study this scripture in the room. But..."
Fang Shenglan raised her head and looked out the window, then shook her head lightly: "But the saint has always been irritable, making Lin'er restless. I'm worried that something will happen, and I can't feel at ease."
When Feiqi heard that the saint was here, she also began to feel a little worried when she thought of Xueqi who had a bad temper and was somewhat stubborn.
Xueqi has always had a grudge against the surrender of the saint.In addition, after Fang Shenglan returned from Xuanyuan Tomb, seeing the abnormal reaction of the saint, she became even more wary of the saint.In her subconscious mind, she has long regarded the saint as an enemy, and she doesn't know if she can get along peacefully when she comes here this time.
The matter between the Holy Maiden and Lin Qi was not very affectionate to the rest of the people, Fang Shenglan thought, the few of them still had time to get along, in order to avoid Xue Qi's rebellious psychology, let's talk about this matter slowly.
"Did anything happen to you all the way here? I received a message half a month ago, saying that you have already set off, why are you here now?"
Fei Qi said: "No major incident happened on this road. It's just that the people from Zhenbei Prefecture followed behind. We were afraid of being cheated, so we went around in circles, so we arrived today. Now the capital is in great chaos, and the group of people in Zhenbei Prefecture are not good. Dealing with it, it is even more difficult to figure out what the emperor will do next. Shenglan, especially you, you have to be careful."
Fang Shenglan seemed to remember something, pursed her lips, and said, "I probably know what the people from Zhenbei Mansion are here for."
Fei Qi asked: "What do you do?"
Fang Shenglan said: "They are here to ask the emperor for medicine."
Fei Qi was puzzled: "Since we are asking for medicine, why do you follow us? We are not here to ask for medicine."
Fang Shenglan didn't speak, she frowned halfway, she looked a little worried, Su Jingyun didn't know what she was thinking, but couldn't bear to see her so troubled, so she called Feiqi and said, "Uncle Qi, you just came, why are you just here?" Working in such a hurry, there are a lot of novelty things here, food and play, I will let the kitchen cook some good dishes later, and clean up the dust for you."
"Thank you."
Just as Su Jingyun turned the topic to lunch, the door rang again, and Fei Qi said, "Probably Ruixue is here, I'll open the door."
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Xueqi looking angry. As soon as she came in, she saw Fang Shenglan and immediately asked, "Why is the saint here?"
"Hey, hey, why are you so angry?"
Su Jingyun defended himself, seeing that Xueqi was about to come up to question his teacher, she hurriedly stood in front of Fang Shenglan, but Fang Shenglan said: "Don't be angry, sit down, let's talk slowly."
While giving up her seat, she pushed open the window, and saw the saint standing guard in front of Lin Qi's window again. She didn't know what she was doing secretly, but at least there was no trouble, and she let go of a stone in her heart.
"She came with us to find the cheats. She is familiar with this place and has helped us a lot."
Xueqi pulled up the stool and sat down. She was also a tall girl with a high nose and raised eyebrows, looking very sharp: "Shenglan, I don't understand. This saint used to be a member of the Guangming sect. Later, you got into an alliance with the emperor, how tolerant do you have to endure her? You still treat her as a companion? Are you not afraid of being bitten by her?"
Fang Shenglan smiled softly, and compared "three" to Su Jingyun in private. Su Jingyun understood it, hurried over, and hugged Xueqi affectionately: "Yo! It turned out to be the third uncle! I was rude just now!"
Xueqi was so angry that he choked in his throat, and when he looked back, he saw a smiling face like a trumpet flower.
"who are you?"
Su Jingyun said affectionately: "I am Jingyun, Su Jingyun, I used to belong to the second and south of the six gates!"
"Oh, it's you."
"That's right, it's me, Third Martial Uncle, did you know me before?"
"I know, I know the one who poached the corner of the emperor's wall, can I not recognize it? You did a good job, and the emperor was not pleasing to the eye a long time ago."
"Really? I don't like him too."
……
The two began to speak ill of the emperor, Fang Shenglan heaved a sigh of relief, and turned around to exchange a helpless look with Xueqi.
It's a pity that Su Jingyun's enthusiasm still failed to completely divert the dedicated Xueqi. She saw that there was no Linqi in the room except Fang Shenglan and Su Jingyun, so she asked, "Where did Lin'er go?"
"She went to the street. You are not here. I have to ask her to inquire about the news here. Jingyun, go and find out where Lin'er has gone. Call her back."
Fang Shenglan flirted with Su Jingyun. Lin Qi was actually still in the inn. Fang Shenglan was afraid that the Holy Maiden would clash with Xueqi, so she asked Su Jingyun to inform Lin Qi that Xueqi was coming, and asked her to find a way to appease the Holy Maiden. , don't come here to make trouble.
"Okay, I'll go now, you guys continue to chat. The little uncle doesn't know where she is, she's really busy these days."
"Yeah, I've troubled Lin'er these days."
The two sang together, and finally covered up the incident between Lin Qi and the saint for the time being.Before Su Jingyun went out, Xueqi suddenly said: "The investigation outside has been strict recently, when you go to find Lin'er, try to avoid the guards as much as possible, and don't show your kung fu, especially the hidden weapon kung fu in your hands."
"I see, thank you uncle for reminding me."
After Su Jingyun went out, Fei Qi asked, "What's the matter, what did you find out just now?"
Xueqi said: "After you left, I went to see the family of the family who had a funeral. The family was a husband and wife shop, and they were in the jade business. The boss and his wife were killed in the middle of the night, and their necks were broken by life. The guy next to him didn’t hear any calls for help, and only asked about the strong smell of blood the next morning, seeing that the two of them hadn’t left the house for a long time, knocking on the door didn’t answer, so they broke in.”
Xueqi said: "It doesn't look like he is looking for revenge. The murderer's hands are fast and his kung fu must be quite high. Seeing what you said, that couple doesn't know how to punch."
Fang Shenglan said: "It's really not seeking revenge. In the past few days, there have been several incidents. They were all tragedies where the neck was twisted. The neighbors didn't hear the sound, and the blood flowed all over the place."
Xueqi shook his head: "This person, it's not just a question of high kung fu, he's a super master. I'm afraid that among you and me, it's hard for anyone to beat her with hundreds of tricks."
She took out something from her pocket, Fang Shenglan took it and looked at Xueqi suspiciously: "Diamond?"
"That's right, it's a diamond. I picked it up by the bed."
This is an incomplete piece of diamond. Diamonds are produced in Persia, and the Central Plains loves jade. Diamonds are mostly used to cut and drill holes. Its hardness is definitely not something that can be split by ordinary knives and axes.And the incision of this piece of jade is obviously caused by man-made, not natural.
This person's internal strength cannot be underestimated.
Fang Shenglan gave the diamond to Feiqi again, Feiqi took a closer look and said, "I'm afraid only Master Yunqi has such internal strength to crush this diamond."
Fang Shenglan also shook his head: "Even if it's the current Jingyun, it won't work."
The three were silent, and at the same time, a cloud of suspicion rose in their hearts. There was a bloodthirsty and cruel master hidden in the border of Jingyang Country. Who is he?What are you here for?And why kill so many people?
"Shenglan, what do you think we should do?"
Fang Shenglan said: "This matter is a bit strange. It would be great if we can help find the culprit. However, we have important matters to deal with, so we should focus on cheat books."
The diamond turned around and returned to Xueqi's hand. Xueqi was playing with the half diamond, and asked suddenly: "Shenglan, I heard that shifting and changing palaces can quickly increase a person's internal strength, but it takes blood For reference, you have been with the saint for so many days, have you ever met her?"
Fang Shenglan's heart thumped, Xueqi was unfriendly to the saint, she had known for a long time, but now it seems that this hostility is obviously much greater than she expected.
"Shifting and changing palaces* can indeed rapidly increase a person's internal strength, and it does need blood as a guide. But the saint is an exception. Her body is different from ordinary people, and she needs to use her own blood as a guide."
"Could it be that she herself used other people's blood as a lure, but kept it from you?"
Fang Shenglan recalled that day when Su Jingyun and the Holy Maiden fought each other. In terms of internal strength, the two were actually evenly matched in terms of internal strength. The Holy Maiden had always had a weird temper, could not hide her thoughts, and would not lie, except...
Seeing Fang Shenglan in a daze, Xueqi thought she remembered something: "Do you have a clue?"
Fang Shenglan recalled the situation when she saw the saint five years ago. The saint at that time was very different from now, but because her consciousness was also very vague at that time, seeing the confused appearance of the saint now, she didn't know if it was her memory. mistaken.
But no matter what, the saint's skill is far from that of this murderer, otherwise, with her temper, how could she resist being beaten down by Su Jingyun.When Xueqi asked this, Fang Shenglan told Xueqi what he saw last time.
"Last time she had a fight with Jingyun, and Jingyun obviously had the upper hand. Even if Jingyun couldn't crush this diamond, I don't think she could either."
"Is that so? Shenglan, are you sure you understand her?" Xueqi still couldn't believe it.
Fang Shenglan said: "I don't know her well. She has a very weird temper, and she has been a little weird recently. Even if it has nothing to do with these murders, it's okay to stare at her. I'm afraid she will cause trouble. And..."
Xueqi asked: "Anything else?"
Fang Shenglan hesitated, but seeing that Xueqi was not as excited as before, she decided to tell Xueqi about Lin Qi and her before she met the saint.
"That's right, Lin'er... she and the saint... well, how should I put it, it's also a bad relationship."
Fang Shenglan then told Xueqi about the matter between Lin Qi and the saint. Fei Qi was soft-hearted and sighed while listening. If I can put it down, I personally can lift it up, it is a wise choice.”
Fang Shenglan said: "I'll let Jingyun watch the saint, now Lin'er is not in a good mood, as a senior sister, you should take it easy and don't conflict with the saint, is that okay?"
"I understand, but I heard that you and Jingyun are practicing. I'll keep an eye on the saint. Don't worry, I can tell right from wrong, and I won't do anything to her."
Afraid that Fang Shenglan would be worried, Fei Qi also said: "Shenglan, your body hasn't fully recovered yet, leave this matter to me and Ruixue, you don't have to worry about it."
Linqi came back after lunch and met Feiqi Xueqi.When all the people arrived, Su Jingyun was the host at night, and Fang Shenglan went to call the saintess. The saintess felt that there were too many ugly women in her eyes, so she ordered food and went back to her room to eat.
This is a difficult and happy day for Lin Qi after he came to Shicheng. The wine table talked about the case of Shicheng. Xue Qi said that he would go out tonight to meet the murderer. Lin Qi and Fei Qi said that they also want to go together, Su Jingyun It was inconvenient with Fang Shenglan, so he stayed in the inn to rest.
Xueqi is good at tracking, Fang Shenglan said that although she dispelled her doubts, she did not relax on the saint. Before leaving, she went to the kitchen to get lime powder, and when she heard that the saint was asleep, she sprinkled it under her doors and windows. Only then did Lin Qixue ride out the door with peace of mind.
That night, the inn was calm and calm.After Su Jingyun and Fang Shenglan finished practicing, Fang Shenglan opened the window as usual, and seeing that there was no movement from the saintess and the stable, she closed the window and prepared to lie down in peace.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down, Su Jingyun ran back anxiously, holding a truncated new character in her hand, and said, "Maomao is gone!"
"What?" Fang Shenglan got up quickly when she heard that, Su Jingyun handed her the beef tendon and said, "Did it bite off?"
It turned out that after Lin Qi euphemistically reminded the two of them to remember to tie the cat during their exercises that day, Su Jingyun went to buy a tendon rope and tied Mao Mao up whenever there was a boudoir activity.As a result, when I was practicing tonight, I didn't hear Mao Mao making a fuss outside the house. After I finished practicing, I opened the door and found that the door was empty, and there was no shadow of Mao Mao.
"It keeps biting this one."
Seeing that piece of beef tendon rope, Fang Shenglan became a little anxious. Could it be that it was stolen?Such a fat cat, stewed in a pot, is enough for several people to eat.
"You sleep first, I'll go find it."
"No, let's go together."
In a short while, Fang Shenglan had put on her clothes and put on her cloak: "If you're not afraid of [-], you are just in case. Although she is also playful, she didn't even snort tonight, which is too strange."
"Okay, then let's go quickly."
Su Jingyun took the copper bell that Mao Mao usually likes to play with, and the two searched around the woodshed, kitchen, patio, and chicken coop, not to mention Mao Mao, they didn't even see other cats.
"It usually won't run out of the inn." Su Jingyun was really anxious this time.
"Jingyun, take out the flute and call it to try."
Shicheng is so big, leaving the inn, finding a cat is no less difficult than finding Mrs. Chiming's precious cat son in the capital.Hearing what Fang Shenglan said, Su Jingyun remembered that although this cat is lazy, but after following Shenglan for so long, and with Mo Qilin by his side, he must be a little clever.
She took out the flute and called twice softly, but there was no response.Fang Shenglan asked her to continue, and Su Jingyun called again. At this time, a faint, almost inaudible meow came from not far away.
"Is it Momo?"
"Yes, look for it, can you hear where it is?"
"Looks like it's in the backyard."
Su Jingyun put away the piccolo and followed Fang Shenglan to the backyard.The owner of the inn opened a field here, but after the rain was not good, it was abandoned. Usually, few people come here, and they only dry the grain when the sun is good.
Su Jingyun came here often, because she raised a cat cat and kept it in the inn. Others thought the big cat was too fierce. Su Jingyun was afraid that Pang Pang would hurt others, so she took it to the backyard. Pang Pang was obedient and had no fur So skinny, Su Jingyun didn't let it come out, so it stayed in the backyard with peace of mind, and Su Jingyun came to feed it every day.
Pang Pang is afraid of the heat, and usually comes out at night for activities. When he arrived at the backyard, Su Jingyun saw Pang Pang lying in the middle of the backyard at a glance, probably sleeping, but he didn't know if he had gained a lot of weight or he had grown hair again. He looked like a ball up.
"Is it here?"
The backyard is a flat land, Su Jingyun has good eyesight, but when he looked at them, he could only see the fat people with their eyes closed who didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Fang Shenglan said: "You call again and try again."
Su Jingyun took out the piccolo, barked twice, and heard a few more weak meows, but this time, she and Fang Shenglan heard the direction of the sound at the same time, and looked at the fat man basking in the moonlight.
"It seems to be at Pangpang's place?"
"That's what I heard."
"Let's go and have a look."
The two of them tiptoed over, and when they walked in, they realized that under Pangpang's body, a big fluffy tail that didn't belong to him was swinging back and forth.
Two women dressed in Central Plains led their horses into the city gate, and immediately carried silk red dates on their backs, looking like ordinary merchants.But even so, they waited for a long time in front of the city gate, and after rounds of investigations, they paid the commercial tax and allowed them to enter the city.
"problem occurs?"
One of the women asked her companion in a low voice, they had been to Shicheng, where merchants from the Central Plains and Western Regions were connected, and the interrogation had never been so strict, so they couldn't help feeling suspicious.

"We're here this time to deal with business. Now let's find Shenglan and the others first."
These two people were Xueqi and Feiqi from Shiliuqili. They heard that Fang Shenglan and the others needed help in Shicheng, so they rushed over to help.
They set off from the capital city, and it took them more than ten days to walk for half a month.There were many twists and turns on the road, and the two had to walk around until they reached the stone city before throwing off the people who followed them.

"It smells of blood."
Xueqi squatted down and swept away the dust on the bluestone board with his hands. As expected, a drop of dark red blood appeared in front of his eyes. Xueqi touched it, then looked up at the shop facing the street in front of him, and said, "Rufei , you go to Shenglan first, I'll go and see what happened here."

She didn't dare to vent her anger on Lin Qi, and only suffered for the passers-by here. A, B, C, D.In addition, there were guards in plain clothes coming to patrol from time to time recently, Fang Shenglan was very distressed, and wished to ask Su Jingyun to pick up a brick and knock the saint unconscious, so as to make the world peaceful.
On this day, the Holy Maiden had another quarrel, Fang Shenglan managed to persuade her to study the scriptures in peace in the bedroom, and after a while, the door rang again.
Su Jingyun was upset, put her hands on her hips, and shouted to the door: "Let me tell you, my patience is limited, so what should you do? If you make trouble again, I will lock you up and stuff it in the cat's litter box. Look at you!" Do you dare to make a fuss?"
"Shenglan, it's me, Rufei."
"..." When Su Jingyun heard that she was not a saint, and still called her so affectionately, she turned her head vigilantly and asked Fang Shenglan at the table, "Who is this person?"
Fang Shenglan lazily put the pen on the inkstone and said, "Go and open the door, this is your Seventh Master Uncle."

Xueqi was so angry that he choked in his throat, and when he looked back, he saw a smiling face like a trumpet flower.
"who are you?"
Su Jingyun said affectionately: "I am Jingyun, Su Jingyun, I used to belong to the second and south of the six gates!"
"Oh, it's you."
"That's right, it's me, Third Martial Uncle, did you know me before?"
"I know, I know the one who poached the corner of the emperor's wall, can I not recognize it? You did a good job, and the emperor was not pleasing to the eye a long time ago."
"Really? I don't like him too."
……
The two began to speak ill of the emperor, Fang Shenglan heaved a sigh of relief, and turned around to exchange a helpless look with Xueqi.
It's a pity that Su Jingyun's enthusiasm still failed to completely divert the dedicated Xueqi. She saw that there was no Linqi in the room except Fang Shenglan and Su Jingyun, so she asked, "Where did Lin'er go?"
"She went to the street. You are not here. I have to ask her to inquire about the news here. Jingyun, go and find out where Lin'er has gone. Call her back."
Fang Shenglan flirted with Su Jingyun. Lin Qi was actually still in the inn. Fang Shenglan was afraid that the Holy Maiden would clash with Xueqi, so she asked Su Jingyun to inform Lin Qi that Xueqi was coming, and asked her to find a way to appease the Holy Maiden. , don't come here to make trouble.
"Okay, I'll go now, you guys continue to chat. The little uncle doesn't know where she is, she's really busy these days."
"Yeah, I've troubled Lin'er these days."
The two sang together, and finally covered up the incident between Lin Qi and the saint for the time being.Before Su Jingyun went out, Xueqi suddenly said: "The investigation outside has been strict recently, when you go to find Lin'er, try to avoid the guards as much as possible, and don't show your kung fu, especially the hidden weapon kung fu in your hands."
"I see, thank you uncle for reminding me."
After Su Jingyun went out, Fei Qi asked, "What's the matter, what did you find out just now?"
Xueqi said: "After you left, I went to see the family of the family who had a funeral. The family was a husband and wife shop, and they were in the jade business. The boss and his wife were killed in the middle of the night, and their necks were broken by life. The guy next to him didn’t hear any calls for help, and only asked about the strong smell of blood the next morning, seeing that the two of them hadn’t left the house for a long time, knocking on the door didn’t answer, so they broke in.”
Xueqi said: "It doesn't look like he is looking for revenge. The murderer's hands are fast and his kung fu must be quite high. Seeing what you said, that couple doesn't know how to punch."
Fang Shenglan said: "It's really not seeking revenge. In the past few days, there have been several incidents. They were all tragedies where the neck was twisted. The neighbors didn't hear the sound, and the blood flowed all over the place."
Xueqi shook his head: "This person, it's not just a question of high kung fu, he's a super master. I'm afraid that among you and me, it's hard for anyone to beat her with hundreds of tricks."
She took out something from her pocket, Fang Shenglan took it and looked at Xueqi suspiciously: "Diamond?"
"That's right, it's a diamond. I picked it up by the bed."
This is an incomplete piece of diamond. Diamonds are produced in Persia, and the Central Plains loves jade. Diamonds are mostly used to cut and drill holes. Its hardness is definitely not something that can be split by ordinary knives and axes.And the incision of this piece of jade is obviously caused by man-made, not natural.
This person's internal strength cannot be underestimated.
Fang Shenglan gave the diamond to Feiqi again, Feiqi took a closer look and said, "I'm afraid only Master Yunqi has such internal strength to crush this diamond."
Fang Shenglan also shook his head: "Even if it's the current Jingyun, it won't work."
The three were silent, and at the same time, a cloud of suspicion rose in their hearts. There was a bloodthirsty and cruel master hidden in the border of Jingyang Country. Who is he?What are you here for?And why kill so many people?
"Shenglan, what do you think we should do?"
Fang Shenglan said: "This matter is a bit strange. It would be great if we can help find the culprit. However, we have important matters to deal with, so we should focus on cheat books."
The diamond turned around and returned to Xueqi's hand. Xueqi was playing with the half diamond, and asked suddenly: "Shenglan, I heard that shifting and changing palaces can quickly increase a person's internal strength, but it takes blood For reference, you have been with the saint for so many days, have you ever met her?"
Fang Shenglan's heart thumped, Xueqi was unfriendly to the saint, she had known for a long time, but now it seems that this hostility is obviously much greater than she expected.
"Shifting and changing palaces* can indeed rapidly increase a person's internal strength, and it does need blood as a guide. But the saint is an exception. Her body is different from ordinary people, and she needs to use her own blood as a guide."
"Could it be that she herself used other people's blood as a lure, but kept it from you?"
Fang Shenglan recalled that day when Su Jingyun and the Holy Maiden fought each other. In terms of internal strength, the two were actually evenly matched in terms of internal strength. The Holy Maiden had always had a weird temper, could not hide her thoughts, and would not lie, except...
Seeing Fang Shenglan in a daze, Xueqi thought she remembered something: "Do you have a clue?"
Fang Shenglan recalled the situation when she saw the saint five years ago. The saint at that time was very different from now, but because her consciousness was also very vague at that time, seeing the confused appearance of the saint now, she didn't know if it was her memory. mistaken.
But no matter what, the saint's skill is far from that of this murderer, otherwise, with her temper, how could she resist being beaten down by Su Jingyun.When Xueqi asked this, Fang Shenglan told Xueqi what he saw last time.
"Last time she had a fight with Jingyun, and Jingyun obviously had the upper hand. Even if Jingyun couldn't crush this diamond, I don't think she could either."
"Is that so? Shenglan, are you sure you understand her?" Xueqi still couldn't believe it.
Fang Shenglan said: "I don't know her well. She has a very weird temper, and she has been a little weird recently. Even if it has nothing to do with these murders, it's okay to stare at her. I'm afraid she will cause trouble. And..."
Xueqi asked: "Anything else?"
Fang Shenglan hesitated, but seeing that Xueqi was not as excited as before, she decided to tell Xueqi about Lin Qi and her before she met the saint.
"That's right, Lin'er... she and the saint... well, how should I put it, it's also a bad relationship."
Fang Shenglan then told Xueqi about the matter between Lin Qi and the saint. Fei Qi was soft-hearted and sighed while listening. If I can put it down, I personally can lift it up, it is a wise choice.”
Fang Shenglan said: "I'll let Jingyun watch the saint, now Lin'er is not in a good mood, as a senior sister, you should take it easy and don't conflict with the saint, is that okay?"
"I understand, but I heard that you and Jingyun are practicing. I'll keep an eye on the saint. Don't worry, I can tell right from wrong, and I won't do anything to her."
Afraid that Fang Shenglan would be worried, Fei Qi also said: "Shenglan, your body hasn't fully recovered yet, leave this matter to me and Ruixue, you don't have to worry about it."
Linqi came back after lunch and met Feiqi Xueqi.When all the people arrived, Su Jingyun was the host at night, and Fang Shenglan went to call the saintess. The saintess felt that there were too many ugly women in her eyes, so she ordered food and went back to her room to eat.
This is a difficult and happy day for Lin Qi after he came to Shicheng. The wine table talked about the case of Shicheng. Xue Qi said that he would go out tonight to meet the murderer. Lin Qi and Fei Qi said that they also want to go together, Su Jingyun It was inconvenient with Fang Shenglan, so he stayed in the inn to rest.
Xueqi is good at tracking, Fang Shenglan said that although she dispelled her doubts, she did not relax on the saint. Before leaving, she went to the kitchen to get lime powder, and when she heard that the saint was asleep, she sprinkled it under her doors and windows. Only then did Lin Qixue ride out the door with peace of mind.
That night, the inn was calm and calm.After Su Jingyun and Fang Shenglan finished practicing, Fang Shenglan opened the window as usual, and seeing that there was no movement from the saintess and the stable, she closed the window and prepared to lie down in peace.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down, Su Jingyun ran back anxiously, holding a truncated new character in her hand, and said, "Maomao is gone!"
"What?" Fang Shenglan got up quickly when she heard that, Su Jingyun handed her the beef tendon and said, "Did it bite off?"
It turned out that after Lin Qi euphemistically reminded the two of them to remember to tie the cat during their exercises that day, Su Jingyun went to buy a tendon rope and tied Mao Mao up whenever there was a boudoir activity.As a result, when I was practicing tonight, I didn't hear Mao Mao making a fuss outside the house. After I finished practicing, I opened the door and found that the door was empty, and there was no shadow of Mao Mao.
"It keeps biting this one."
Seeing that piece of beef tendon rope, Fang Shenglan became a little anxious. Could it be that it was stolen?Such a fat cat, stewed in a pot, is enough for several people to eat.
"You sleep first, I'll go find it."
"No, let's go together."
In a short while, Fang Shenglan had put on her clothes and put on her cloak: "If you're not afraid of [-], you are just in case. Although she is also playful, she didn't even snort tonight, which is too strange."
"Okay, then let's go quickly."
Su Jingyun took the copper bell that Mao Mao usually likes to play with, and the two searched around the woodshed, kitchen, patio, and chicken coop, not to mention Mao Mao, they didn't even see other cats.
"It usually won't run out of the inn." Su Jingyun was really anxious this time.
"Jingyun, take out the flute and call it to try."
Shicheng is so big, leaving the inn, finding a cat is no less difficult than finding Mrs. Chiming's precious cat son in the capital.Hearing what Fang Shenglan said, Su Jingyun remembered that although this cat is lazy, but after following Shenglan for so long, and with Mo Qilin by his side, he must be a little clever.
She took out the flute and called twice softly, but there was no response.Fang Shenglan asked her to continue, and Su Jingyun called again. At this time, a faint, almost inaudible meow came from not far away.
"Is it Momo?"
"Yes, look for it, can you hear where it is?"
"Looks like it's in the backyard."
Su Jingyun put away the piccolo and followed Fang Shenglan to the backyard.The owner of the inn opened a field here, but after the rain was not good, it was abandoned. Usually, few people come here, and they only dry the grain when the sun is good.
Su Jingyun came here often, because she raised a cat cat and kept it in the inn. Others thought the big cat was too fierce. Su Jingyun was afraid that Pang Pang would hurt others, so she took it to the backyard. Pang Pang was obedient and had no fur So skinny, Su Jingyun didn't let it come out, so it stayed in the backyard with peace of mind, and Su Jingyun came to feed it every day.
Pang Pang is afraid of the heat, and usually comes out at night for activities. When he arrived at the backyard, Su Jingyun saw Pang Pang lying in the middle of the backyard at a glance, probably sleeping, but he didn't know if he had gained a lot of weight or he had grown hair again. He looked like a ball up.
"Is it here?"
The backyard is a flat land, Su Jingyun has good eyesight, but when he looked at them, he could only see the fat people with their eyes closed who didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Fang Shenglan said: "You call again and try again."
Su Jingyun took out the piccolo, barked twice, and heard a few more weak meows, but this time, she and Fang Shenglan heard the direction of the sound at the same time, and looked at the fat man basking in the moonlight.
"It seems to be at Pangpang's place?"
"That's what I heard."
"Let's go and have a look."
The two of them tiptoed over, and when they walked in, they realized that under Pangpang's body, a big fluffy tail that didn't belong to him was swinging back and forth.
