I heard Mr. Ye is a good dragon?

The smell of realgar outside the door had dissipated quite a bit. Before leaving, Ye Heng lit the incense in the house. After closing the door, he went straight to the backyard. The place had been cleaned thoroughly, and the latrine was simply closed with bamboo and cloth curtains. After covering it for a while, I also lit a handful of incense around it, and the smoke curled up, which is to vigorously remove the peculiar smell.

After Ye Heng looked around, he went to the room where the servants lived, but he didn't see Jin Bao, only Zhao Cai lying on the bed and dozing.

He walked over and gently pushed him awake, and asked, "Where is Jinbao?"

Seeing him sleepily, Zhaocai sat up immediately, wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, stretched his legs under the bed to look for shoes, and murmured: "I don't know... I'll find it for you... ..."

"Forget it, go back to sleep," Ye Heng pushed him back to the bed, "I'll see him later, let him come to see me."

Ye Heng turned around and walked to the door. Before his hand touched the door, the door opened first.

It was Jinbao standing outside the door.Standing under the lantern on the veranda, with wet hair, a white complexion and arms, holding a basin in his hand, and an extremely strong smell of pig pancreas on his body.

Ye Heng reckoned that he had used half the amount, and was afraid that Zhao Caiwen would cause problems if he went in directly, so he simply dragged him away to talk.As a result, after transferring to the new location, he was nervous, so he didn't get straight to the point, but asked casually first: "After doing so much work, have you eaten?"

Hearing what he said, Jin Bao turned his head and screamed out.

Fortunately, he had already vomited up all the bile, so this time he only retched and stopped, and Ye Heng didn't dare to talk about eating again when he saw this, so he had to turn the topic to the little Taoist priest: "The Taoist priest is gone!" ?"

Jin Bao covered his mouth and nodded lightly: "I gave him all the things the young master told me."

"Oh..." Ye Heng tugged at the small cloth bag in his hand and sighed, "Then did he leave any words before he left?"

Jin Bao shook his head: "No, he took his things and ran away after changing his clothes. He climbed over the nearest wall and didn't even leave the door."

Ye Heng sighed again, thinking that the little Taoist priest was probably scared out of his wits, so he didn't dare to stay any longer.But it’s okay to be in a hurry, this three-legged cat kung fu, and there are no spells, so let’s follow the master to practice in the temple, don’t go out to mix with goblins, he is not that material.

The two chatted for a few words, and when the breeze blew away the smell of pig pancreas, Ye Heng followed Jin Bao back to the house.

It's not that he has anything to do, but he doesn't want to go back to the house to face Bailong yet - what happened tonight has made him feel like he's in a mess, he wants to be quiet, and his quietness is to change his place and divert himself to Bailong. attention.

Before the two of them reached the door, Ye Heng saw Zhaocai stretching his neck to look there, apparently waiting for Jinbao, and seeing them coming back together, he asked curiously, "Master, do you have anything to say?"

"It's nothing," Ye Heng casually found an excuse, "A snake entered the house earlier, and someone cooked realgar wine to smoke it, and now it still smells, so come and have a sit... By the way, you dragged me earlier , what are you going to say?"

"Oh, it's the collapse of the elephant shed. Didn't you ask me to investigate it before? I went to see the injured person," Zhaocai explained the matter while getting up to pour tea for Ye Heng.

It turned out that Ye Heng's guess was correct. Among the people who clamored to refund the ticket that day, there were indeed several Bai Gongzi's companions, and the injured person was one of them.

Drawing on the experience of the black-faced man, instead of stealing directly, they decided to take the opportunity to make trouble and extort money.The interruption of the performance caused by the sudden change of weather was not in their consideration, but it became an opportunity delivered to their door.

But no one expected that the heavy wind and rain that day knocked off the tent cloth of the elephant shed, and then the thunder struck down, directly knocking down the thick wooden poles supporting the shed.

"The moment before the shed fell, Mr. Bai pushed a group of people in the opposite direction, and both of them flew out of the shed." Zhao Cai told the story vividly, while standing up and gesticulating, "In this way, No one should be seriously injured, but some people couldn't stand the thought, and obviously left the elephant shed, only to catch a glimpse of the broken silver in the shed that had not been taken away, so they rushed in to grab it again. The pole fell on his forehead..."

Ye Heng's heart clenched when he heard it: "Blood all over your head?"

Zhao Cai raised his finger and shook it: "No. The pole moved a little distance before it hit his head, and finally hit one of his feet."

"On the feet?"

"Yes." Zhaocai stretched out his finger and hooked it lightly. "A person with sharp eyes said that he saw Mr. Bai stretching out his hand in the direction of the pole and making a 'stroke' motion. But before he After confirming it, the tarpaulin was blown up into the sky, blocking his sight, and the thunder was rumbling, as if hitting someone on the top of his head, so he had to run away with the others."

Ye Heng blinked: "What about the one with the injured foot?"

Zhaocai spread his hands: "Everyone ran for their lives, no one cared about him. Fortunately, the thunder drifted away and didn't strike him, so he was only drenched in the rain. What happened after the rain stopped made him feel even more chilled!"

Ye Heng frowned deeply: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Cai asked: "Young master thinks who will be the first to see the collapsed elephant shed after the rain stops?"

"Those policemen that Jinbao contacted earlier?"

"No, no, of course he is the team leader of Washi." Zhaocaiyu analyzed to him earnestly, "He is the one who cares most about the collapse of the elephant shed, because he paid for the construction of the elephant shed!"

"Then he..." Ye Heng asked halfway through the question, and suddenly got a glimpse of the answer in his heart.

And Zhaocai completed the answer for him.

"When the team leader came to the scene, the first thing he did was to collect the broken silver on the ground, and then he glanced at the person who asked him for help on the ground, ignored him and left cursing, saying that the other party was unlucky."

Ye Heng curled his lips, full of thoughts in his heart.

The morals of the world are really as Bai Long said, some monsters are targeted by people and are willing to help others, but some people will not save anyone who has made money for them.

It's just that, in this matter, there was one point that he felt was a little bit out of harmony, or he said it lightly because he was avoided.

Seeing Ye Heng thoughtful, Zhaocai thought he was too emotional after hearing this, and just wanted to enlighten him, but he suddenly raised his head: "Zhaocai."

"You said earlier that Bailong was injured in the shed. Why didn't you seem to mention that he was injured by someone or by a pole when you said it just now?"

Zhaocai didn't think about this issue, because those men expressed their gratitude to Bai Long for saving his life, and they looked quite sincere, so he accepted their argument completely, and up to now, he didn't think there was a problem with this argument.

Since there is no problem with the statement, it means that his assumption is wrong, but he absolutely dare not mention the root of the wrong assumption.

So he could only say: "The one before... I actually guessed it, because Mr. Bai was scratched. Isn't it very common for the shed to be scratched when it fell down? Now it seems that I misunderstood, Maybe Mr. Bai was unlucky, he wanted to dodge the thunder, but walked with him, and ended up falling on the way to dodge the thunder and hurt his hand and jaw..."

"Lightning protection..."

Ye Heng repeated his words in a murmur, stood up suddenly, opened the door hastily and walked out.

Immediately came the sound of messy footsteps from behind: "Master, it's so dark outside...you wait before leaving!"

Ye Heng waved his hands behind him: "You all go back."

Jin Bao stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do, and looked at Zhao Cai, who had already chased him: "At least hold the lantern!"

Ye Heng took the lantern and walked all the way to the bedroom without looking back.

He had a guess in his heart, and he wanted to find Bailong to confirm it.

Ye Heng opened the bedroom door again.

It was still quiet inside the door.Under the bright light, the room was as empty as if there was no one there, except for a pair of shoes scattered crookedly on the ground, kicked by them who did not know before.

Ye Heng closed the door, opened the bead curtain with a clatter and walked towards the canopy bed.However, looking through the curtain, he found that Bailong did not sit and practice, nor peeked at the scriptures in his room, but lay flat on the bed.

Fell asleep?

Ye Heng hesitated for a moment, and walked over without making a sound. Before he opened the curtain, he noticed a strange sound when he stepped on the carpet in front of the bed.He took a step back, and by the light of the candle, he could clearly see a pool of wet stains under his feet—because the color was dark, it was too easy to hide when mixed with the navy blue fabric, so that he didn't notice it from a distance just now.

He suddenly smelled a faint fishy smell at the end of his nose, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he tore open the curtain.

Bailong lay there silently, his face pale as snow, just like the state when he picked it up in the yard the first day, the difference was that what he showed was no longer the insignificant scrape.

His tail and claws were exposed, and the scales spread to his chest. There was no scar on it, but the bedding under his body was completely dyed a green color.

He has seen such a green color twice, one is on the scales that the white dragon has pulled off, and the other is on the white dragon's finger that was bitten by him.

It was the blood of the white dragon.

Green as emerald.

Snakes cannot shed such blood.

Snakes do not have such claws either.

His heart seemed to be tightly clenched in an instant, and Ye Heng felt unprecedented pain, which even overwhelmed all the fear and fear in his heart.He held Bailong's shoulder and shook it cautiously: "Bailong! What's wrong with you? Wake up!"

There is still a little human skin on Bailong's shoulder, which feels like a piece of jelly, which is cold and soft to play with him, but he doesn't seem to move.

Ye Heng felt that it was not an option to keep shouting like this, if he attracted money and treasures and saw Bailong's real body, that would be even worse, so he gritted his teeth, stretched his hand to the back of his neck, and tried to lift him up , to give him treatment - there must be a wound that bleeds, if you can't see it from the front, it's from the back.

But Bailong was as heavy as a stubborn rock, he tried his best, but he only raised his head slightly.

Ye Heng strenuously supported his neck and refused to let go, but there was a voice in his heart——

Since his body can fill the entire room, how can you lift him?
