The protagonists have golden fingers

At the beginning, Shen Yan didn't take the matter of Zichuan seriously. The reason why she agreed to Gu Zhuangcheng to come with him was purely because the group of people in the capital who visited the house all day long were too annoying, and they couldn't hide from each other. He might as well take this opportunity to travel far away, so as to save those people from running to him every day with high energy.

It wasn't until the people from the Zichuan branch passed the news that Shen Yan vaguely realized that this matter might not be as simple as he imagined.

The deceased was a young man, and it is said that he was a young man with a very good family background. At least few people in Manzichuan could afford the clothes he was wearing.

But his hands were full of calluses, and they were not as delicate and tender as ordinary young masters, so many people speculated that he should be the guard of a rich family.

Shen Yan frowned slightly, carefully read the things found in the branch pavilion, pursed the corners of her mouth and remained silent.

No matter how powerful the person who divided the cabinet was, he couldn't explain clearly the circumstances and cause of death of this person when he was discovered.After much deliberation, it would be more reliable to go to the Yamen.

However, they are not members of the imperial court after all, even if they go to the Yamen to ask to see the files, they will probably be rejected, so it is more appropriate to wait for the people from the Marquis of Zhennan to come before taking action.

"Any new discoveries?" Gu Zhuangcheng was less concerned than Shen Yan, as if he hadn't planned to concentrate on investigating the case from the beginning. He came back from outside with an oiled paper bag in his arms, "I bought brown sugar glutinous rice cakes. , come to have a taste?"

Chen Yan pursed the corner of her mouth, got up and moved over, opened her mouth and bit a piece of glutinous rice cake and chewed it in her mouth.

Gu Zhuangcheng observed his expression and saw that he seemed to like it, so he felt relieved, took another one, and asked while eating, "Have you still not found it?"

"Yeah." Mentioning this, Shen Yan felt a little suffocated, "There are not enough people and abilities in the pavilion, so I can't find out more. But... But judging from the information they found, I can't easily Draw conclusions."

"Normally, the Southwest is Su Lanqing's domain. Apart from the emperor, his family is the only one who dominates. Other forces have no favors here."

Gu Zhuangcheng ate another piece of glutinous rice cake, "Let's go and see for ourselves later, maybe we can find some clues."

"It's been so many days and it's raining. I'm afraid there won't be any clues left."

Shen Yan didn't have much hope for this, he ate his snacks like chewing wax, and sighed sullenly.

Gu Zhuangcheng tilted his head to look at him, but said nothing.The two of them ate a pack of snacks quietly with tea, and wiped off their oily fingers and mouth corners with handkerchiefs.

Before going out, Gu Zhuangcheng suddenly turned around, and slightly bent down under Shen Yan's puzzled gaze...

Shen Yan was taken aback by this move, she could only frown, and slapped the opponent on the shoulder.

It's just that he couldn't bear to be cruel, and the strength was light and flirtatious, which seemed like flirting.

A few people came from one end of the inn, and when they saw the situation of these two people, they curled their lips in disdain, snorted contemptuously, and walked away arrogantly.

Shen Yan squinted his eyes, pushed the person away with a little force, raised his hand and wiped the drool on his neck, looked very irritable, but had to suppress his anger, raised his chin, and said: "Follow me!" them."

"Huh?" Gu Zhuangcheng had just taken advantage of it, but at the moment he was still a little absent-minded, and his eyes kept glancing at Shen Yan.Then, he met Pavilion Master Shang Shen's murderous eyes...

Master Gu shyly withdrew his gaze, touched his nose in embarrassment, gently hooked his fingertips around the other's fingertips, and led the person downstairs casually.

Coincidentally, those people went downstairs to eat. At the moment, they were sitting at a table, ordered a table of food and wine, and chatted while eating. I was fined again, and we had a great time chatting.

Gu Zhuangcheng listened for a while, frowned, feeling a little bit dumbfounded: "So...why did we follow them? Do they know what happened this time?"

"I don't know." Shen Yan shook her head, her eyes swept over those people's faces, and said in a low voice, "However, they are related to the Xie family."

Gu Zhuang became energetic, and looked over there in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost: "Xie's family? No—you mean them? Are you kidding me?!"

Shen Yan knew why he reacted so strongly.Those few people's cultivation bases are not very good, but they are quite angry. To say that they can get involved with the Xie family is really insulting the reputation of the Xie family.

Shen Yan, as the sole heir of the Xie family's thread-drawing technique—even though she didn't do it voluntarily, she would also unconsciously protect the Xie family's reputation. Now that she saw these people at first glance, she would also have a lawsuit on her head.

He squeezed his fingertips irritably, and said softly: "The swords on their bodies have the Xie family's unique logo on them. If I guessed correctly, it should be a gift from the elders of the Xie family to the younger generation."

Not so precious, but very precious.

The Xie family is famous for its silk-drawing technique, but other crafts are not so famous.Shen Yan also followed Xie Qingming, only then did she realize that the Xie family's casting skills are in fact unrivaled in the world, otherwise how could they make such delicate and lifelike puppets?

"But what does that have to do with you?"

"The fan that the dead young man held in his hand also has the same logo on it." Shen Yan exhaled softly, and said slowly, "If I guess correctly, the murderer's next target is probably It's one of those people."

Gu Zhuang became complacent, he lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "At this time, you and I may not be able to do it, why don't we send some people to watch them, if something really happens, let us know as soon as possible, how about it? "

Shen Yan looked at the few people who were talking and laughing again, and just about to answer, she saw one of them raised his head and smiled at him with a contemptuous and condescending expression.

Pavilion Master Shen took a deep breath, and said with a sneer, "No need, I care about their life and death." After saying that, he walked out of the inn with a chill all over his body, without looking back.

Gu Zhuangcheng was stunned for a moment, then looked over there blankly, and saw the young man who had just provoked Shen Yan smiling brightly, like a young master who had just left the house not long ago, innocent and innocent.

Gu Zhuangcheng was chilled by his laughter, quickly looked away, and chased him out.

The smile on the young man's face froze, then his face turned red, and he couldn't get down from the stage.

The person at the same table laughed loudly, and pulled him to persuade him: "Little brother, don't be angry! There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, why hang yourself on this tree?"

"What do you know?" The young man gritted his teeth and said contemptuously, "I'm going to fix that man!"

Thinking of how obsessed that person would be with him in the future, the young man couldn't help feeling hot all over.He licked his lips, drank the cold tea, and lowered his eyes to cover up his ulterior thoughts and desires.

-

Su Lanqing was brought into a strange place in a daze.He was injured too badly and was hit again. He was in a coma for more than half of the time along the way, as if he wanted to use this move to avoid all the bad things in reality.

However, no matter how painful the reality is or how beautiful the dream is, we must wake up.

Su Lanqing woke up to a burst of light singing, her nostrils filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers.

He felt light all over his body, and the surroundings were warm, as if trapped in a mass of soft silk, under the afternoon sun.

When he opened his eyes, the scenery in front of him was still blurry, and the green eyes full of green made him shake slightly, but he soon regained his vigilance.His vision gradually cleared up, and he could see the surrounding environment in full view.

He was lying on a deck chair, his body was wrapped in a silk blanket, his head was covered by a tree shade, and his whole body was exposed to the sun.

Su Lanqing looked around, all he saw were towering giant trees, thick vines, and unknown flowers all over the mountains and plains.

"You're awake." The light and misty singing stopped at some point. The person who spoke was a short and short girl. Her face was still childish, but her eyebrows and eyes were extremely beautiful. It was not difficult to see that she would definitely be an alluring beauty when she grew up.

Su Lanqing blinked and stood up from the reclining chair calmly.It was such a simple movement, but it gave him a pain in his chest.Then, something warm came down from his body.

The little girl's face turned pale with fright, and she rushed over and pressed him to lie down on the couch again: "Don't move around, I finally got your life back, don't just toss yourself to death casually! "

As she said that, she grabbed Su Lanqing's skirt in a very invisible way, and pulled her hands to the sides vigorously——

Zhennan Hou has lived for more than 20 years, the first time he saw such a shameless girl, he was immediately angry and annoyed, his face flushed red: "You, you..."

"What? Does the wound hurt?" The little girl asked casually without thinking, while quickly opening the medicine bag beside her, took out a small jar from it, and applied the strange thing in the jar to the wound.

Strange to say, the sharp pain from the wound gradually disappeared, and even the bleeding slowly stopped.

Su Lanqing touched her chest in surprise, and couldn't recover for a while.

The little girl had already arranged his clothes, and stood aside obediently again, quietly waiting for Su Lanqing to recover.

Zhennan Hou has a lot of experience, even if he encountered such a strange thing for the first time, he was only absent-minded for a moment.

He turned his head and looked at the little girl carefully. After a while, he sighed and said, "I'm Su Lanqing, Nanhou of Daxiang Town. Thank you for your help."

"It's okay, it's okay, don't be so polite." The little girl waved her hands again and again, and the silver bracelets on her wrists collided lightly, making a crisp sound, "You are too seriously injured to travel long distances. I have no choice but to take you away first." Come back for treatment, and when you recover from your injuries, you can leave at any time!"

The little girl was very understanding, she blinked her eyes, and smiled awkwardly, "However, until you recover from your injury, it's best not to run around. The people in the village... don't welcome you Han people very much. Don't embarrass me."

So you just let me fend for myself?Su Lanqing thought strangely, but didn't ask.

He just nodded kindly and agreed without hesitation.He himself doesn't like to argue with others, not to mention that there is no way to repay someone's life-saving grace, so how can he embarrass his benefactor?

Seeing that he was obedient and obedient, the little girl also heaved a sigh of relief.God knows how much the people in the village objected when she brought her back to the village!Even if she is the leader of the holy religion, she can't convince the public at any time.

Just when the two looked at each other in embarrassment and didn't know what to say, a burst of panicked footsteps disrupted the stiff atmosphere between them.

The person who came was a tall man wearing a strange costume. He ran over in a panic, staggered and knelt down: "Teacher, the leader is not good! Over there...the people over there are calling again!"

The little girl frowned, and her pretty face tensed up.She turned and walked outside, and ordered as she walked: "Have someone close the door, and everyone gathers at the gate. Oh, by the way, send a few people over to protect this person. He is a distinguished guest of my Holy Cult, and he must not be allowed to be imprisoned." Hurt, understand?"

"Yes, this subordinate obeys!" The man took the order, nodded and ran away.

The little girl turned her head, smiled at Su Lanqing who was lying on the couch and couldn't move, and comforted: "You wait for me here for a while, I will be back soon!"

Su Lan quietly watched the back of her walking away, and after a while, she slowly turned her head to the side and raised her hand to cover half of her face.

A few birds jumped onto the low branches around the deck chair lightly and nimbly, tilted their heads, stared at the reddish ears of the human in puzzlement, and chirped suspiciously.
