Chapter 121 Who's in the sedan chair

Seeing that he still disturbed the owner in the backyard, Yilin gave Chi Youran a reproachful look, and said respectfully to the people in the backyard, "A few guests wanted to break into the backyard, so I had a little conflict with them. "

The man came out from the backyard. When he saw someone coming, a smile appeared on his face, "I didn't expect to see you here."

Lin Yi didn't expect that the man in the courtyard was Ning Zhuang.He was wearing a simple black jacket, and his shoulder-length hair was tied into a small braid, looking simple and elegant.

"What a coincidence." Wang Ji emphasized these two words, both as a greeting and as a question.

Seeing that they were still dawdling in greeting, Chi Youran said anxiously, "I can feel it, the smell is inside."

Lin Yi tugged at the corner of his clothes, signaling him not to worry, "Palace Master Ningzhuang, we are looking for someone now, can you let us go into the backyard?"

Ning Zhuang pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, "Of course it's no problem, but you're afraid you'll get nothing... Why did the person you're looking for show up in my shop yard for no reason?"

Chi Youran keenly felt that the smell was fading away, so she didn't waste any more time, and rushed directly into the backyard, "We'll see for ourselves to see if it's there."

As soon as he stepped into the backyard, the familiar smell came over his face. Chi Youran walked around, frustrated to find that the person who emitted the smell had disappeared.

Damn, one step late.

Ning Zhuang followed into the backyard and asked knowingly, "What? Did you find the person you were looking for?"

Wang Ji looked at the sky, and a red sedan chair was about to disappear into the sky, "Why did your sedan chair fly away?"

Ning Zhuang replied, "I'm going to hang out at the Qingmeng meeting next time, so I let them go back first."

Wang Ji said in a joking tone, but there was no smile on her face, "Really? There won't be people in that sedan chair that shouldn't be there?"

Bing Ke, who had been silent since seeing Ning Zhuang, interjected, "Wang Ji, you don't doubt Ning Zhuang, do you?"

Ning Zhuang also cast her eyes on Wang Ji, as if she was waiting for Wang Ji's reply.

Lin Yi smoothed things over, "How could we doubt Palace Master Ningzhuang? It's just a coincidence."

"There was a misunderstanding, Palace Master Ningzhuang, please don't mind. We still have something to do, so we left first." Wang Ji gave Lin Yi a wink, and then politely exited the backyard.

After the four of them walked out of the flower and bird shop, Wang Ji glanced at Chi Youran, "How fast can you run?"

Chi Youran said proudly, "Among all the beasts, our Sirius tribe is the fastest, and among the Sirius tribe, no one can match me."

Wang Ji said, "Can you keep up with my speed?"

Chi Youran asked in surprise, wondering if he heard it wrong, "What?"

"We're going to chase that sedan chair now."

As soon as the words were finished, Wang Ji picked up Lin Yi and quickly flew towards the direction where the sedan chair disappeared.Chi Youran hurriedly chased after her.

Bing Ke was stunned for a second, and couldn't help cursing, "He really dares to suspect that the rhinoceros spirit is in that sedan chair." He hesitated for a while, and then chased after him unwillingly.

After flying for a while, Chi Youran from behind shouted to Wang Ji out of breath, "I heard it again, he's on your right."

Wang Ji immediately turned around and headed to the right.

Under Chi Youran's correct guidance, the four soon caught up with the red sedan chair.

Wang Ji temporarily entrusted Lin Yi to Chi Youran's care, then suddenly accelerated, stopping in front of the sedan chair with a sudden brake.

The bearer quickly stopped in his tracks and shouted, "Who dares to block the sedan chair from Yu Ning Palace?"

Wang Ji said coldly, "Let the people in the sedan chair get down."

"I want to see the people in the sedan chair, let's see if you have this life!" The two porters looked at each other, pulled out the big swords hanging from their waists, and slashed at Wang Ji with one stride.

In the blink of an eye, the outcome was decided, and Wang Ji quickly knocked down the two bearers.

Wang Ji said to the people in the sedan chair, "Are you coming out by yourself? Or shall I let you out?"

There was no reply from the sedan chair.

Wang Ji drew out her sword, and was about to cut through the curtain of the sedan chair when Bing Ke rushed over with her sword, "What are you doing? Robbing the sedan chair?"

"Then what about you, what are you afraid of?" Wang Ji didn't take back her sword, but just glanced at Bing Ke lightly, as if she had already understood his thoughts.

"What am I afraid of?"

Wang Ji stated calmly, "I thought so too, but your behavior along the way was not like this. Every time it was related to the affairs of Yu Ning Palace, you behaved nothing like that General Bing Ke."

Bing Ke was shocked by this sentence, and did not refute Wang Ji for a while.He gritted his teeth, pulled out his sword, and tore the curtain of the sedan chair into pieces, "Wang Ji, don't you just want to see what's inside the sedan chair? Then I'll prove it to you, you are wrong."

"Really?" Wang Ji looked at the rhinoceros in the sedan chair and smiled mockingly.

Bing Ke turned around stiffly and looked at the people in the sedan chair.With two horns on the head, wrinkled skin, and a huge hooked nose on the face, it is undoubtedly a rhinoceros spirit.

Angrily, he pulled the rhinoceros out of the sedan chair, "Come out for me."

Immediately, the rhinoceros fell limply to the ground, with both eyes still open, seemingly lifeless.

Lin Yi stepped forward, felt his pulse, and shook his head heavily, "We are one step too late, he is hopeless."

Wang Ji calmly analyzed, "His body is still warm, which means he didn't die long ago. He was probably killed not long before we arrived at the flower and bird shop."

Bingke glanced at Wang Ji, and he understood what Wang Ji's words implied. The rhinoceros was probably killed by Ningzhuang in the backyard, and the reason why Ningzhuang hurt the rhinoceros was quite intriguing.

Chi Youran regained her wolf form, and reluctantly carried the rhinoceros body on her shoulders, "It's really heavy, why am I carrying him?"

Wang Ji hugged Lin Yi, "I don't have time."

Bing Ke looked gloomy and ignored him at all.

The four of them flew for a while and finally stopped in Fangcun. Lin Yi didn't want the rhino spirit's body to scare Hua Jixiang and Li Hui, so he asked Chi Youran to find a hidden place to hide his body first.

Taking advantage of Lin Yi and Chi Youran's absence, Bingke walked up to Wang Ji, "Let's talk."

Bing Ke took Wang Ji to a remote wheat field, and the wind leaked in from the knee-high wheat, making a soft rustling sound.

Bingke was silent for a long time before he said, "Now you have found out the truth, you have received a public apology from the Mohua Society, and the people who spread rumors are dead enough, all of this is enough for you to deal with."

Wang Ji said, "Then, maybe I can do better, such as follow the clues to find out who is behind this incident, and then prevent future troubles forever."

"But you don't have to do this. Because for you, the gains outweigh the losses, and the entire Yu Ning Palace will be against you, including me naturally."

Wang Ji didn't show a trace of panic because of his threat, "So, if I choose to stop, will I get any benefits?"

"I can give you a promise. If you use me in the future, I will do my best to help you without violating principles."

"General Bing Ke promises a thousand gold, I don't seem to have any reason to refuse."
