Who made me a peerless genius

Bo Xue named Mofo in the letter because he didn't read Ming Zongyi's letter, and what he heard was all based on Heng Kong's opening of his mouth. He was worried that he would be deceived, so he left a backhand for confirmation.

Ming Zongyi also named the Mofo in the letter, and even made it clear that Buddhism in the Western Regions needs Qu Shen. He was worried that Bo Xue would not believe Hengkong's words, so he wrote everything in the letter. Now it seems that it is really lack of consideration.. ....Fortunately, it was lost due to a shipwreck, so no one should have seen it.

【"You learn a lot from a pit, it seems that you should pay more attention to writing letters in the future..."】

Bo Xue hardly named her name in the letter, and there are quite a few guys in the Western Regions who are known as "Magic Buddhas". Unless they are very courageous, they generally would not guess about the undead Demonic Buddha who disappeared 200 years ago. I have learned a lesson and paid more attention to writing letters in the future.

"Master Ming is going to leave Ezhou, or stay in the palace for a few days?" The old steward said slowly, "If you stay in the palace for a while, it's best to avoid going out, this is what the young master meant."

Ming Zongyi can probably understand that Hengkong's coming to Huaiyu City cannot be concealed. That mysterious organization was able to break through the defense line of Buddhism in the Western Regions, and put a lot of flesh and blood into the place of the absolute heaven and earth. It is not difficult to find Heng Kong's whereabouts. During this period of time, some people may stay in Huaiyu City... Wait!

Ming Zongyi suddenly realized that, according to the middle-aged man who set up a tea stall at the gate of the city, someone had inquired about the location of Huaiyu Palace before him, could it be...

【"Wait... Then the people from this organization came too slowly, this speed can't even eat ashes."】

An organization capable of penetrating the Buddhist defenses in the Western Regions can't get a big ship. It must take so much time to cross the Ezhou Mountains. Ming Zongyi doesn't believe it. The time in the mountains is enough for the boat to run several times, so it is not possible to come here now, and if it is the second wave of reinforcements, the first element should be to reconcile with the accomplices, instead of asking where the Huaiyu Palace is, why, and want to go Kai Wushuang?

After thinking about it carefully, Ming Zongyi felt that the person who asked the way should not be a member of a mysterious organization, so... who could it be?

He cast his eyes on the old housekeeper.

The other party was a while earlier than myself, if it wasn't a mysterious organization, then it was a guest, maybe they had already visited.

After thinking up to this point, Ming Zongyi asked:

"Steward Lin... just today, has anyone other than me visited?"

In the previous conversation, Ming Zongyi had already learned that the old housekeeper's surname was Lin.

Lin Butler obviously didn't understand why Ming Zongyi asked this question, but he still responded.

"No, Mr. Ming is the only one... The last guest was five days ago."

Ming Zongyi didn't get the answer he wanted, and became even more puzzled.

【"Who the hell is that..."】

Before he could come up with an answer, there was a knock on the door. Ming Zongyi looked up and saw that the door of the living room was always open, and it was the doorman who reached in and knocked on the wooden door.

"Steward Lin, there is a woman outside who wants to see Mr. Shizi."

"..."

Ming Zongyi suddenly had a very bad premonition, because he remembered one thing, coming to Huaiyu City first, does not mean that he will definitely visit Huaiyu Palace first, just like when he was in the Ezhou Mountains, Ming Zongyi thought that The master who slaughtered the bandits must have gone far, but the reality is not a game. Without the m key to open the map, people in reality will get lost, especially in Huaiyu City. Most of the people here can only speak dialects, and it is very difficult to talk. It's not easy to ask for directions.

Lin Butler looked calm and said, "Has this girl reported her family name?"

Mending shook his head.

"No, I asked her who she was, where she came from, and what her name was. She didn't answer me a word, and only said to let Mr. Shizi go out to see her."

Steward Lin pondered for a moment, then turned to Ming Zongyi and said, "Young Master Ming, please sit here for a while."

Ming Zongyi nodded.

Lin Butler took two steps forward, then stretched out his hand to call for the maid on one side, and said as he walked:

"Tai Cuu, go to the kitchen and bring some snacks for Mr. Ming. Judging by his accent, he is from Longzhou and Xingzhou, so the taste will be lighter..."

Before Butler Lin could go far, Mending's panicked voice suddenly came from a distance.

"Stop her!"

"Come here! Someone forcibly broke into the palace!"

Before Ming Zongyi could figure out the current situation, he heard a piercing whistle, and then a ghostly figure rushed into the depths of the palace at an incredible speed.

Then came a calm and somewhat cold voice.

"Bo Xue, where are you going to escape this time? If you leave quietly again, I guarantee that the world will be turned upside down!"

The ghostly figure stopped, stood in the center of the courtyard and looked around, Ming Zongyi finally saw her face clearly.

It was a woman with an extremely ordinary appearance, the kind who couldn't be found even if thrown in the crowd...it was Xiao Fan!

The rehabilitated appearance has never changed, but her aura is completely different. Her long black hair is tied with a purple bamboo hairpin, and her eyes are extremely sharp. Just standing there, she gives people an inexplicable fear. It seemed that she would set off a big war at any time and beat everything to pieces, just like the great ancestor of Tibet who walked on the waves, visited Fusang in person, and looked down on that poor and weak island country from a high position.

An extremely powerful threat, even though Xiao Fan didn't show anything other than ghostly agility, everyone who heard this sentence felt inexplicably that this woman could do what she said.

Chapter 71 A Woman Surnamed Jing

When Ming Zongyi saw Xiao Fan, the other party also saw Ming Zongyi.

Her monstrous aura swept across, Ming Zongyi didn't dare to look at her, and looked away.

"Who?! How dare you trespass into Huaiyu Palace!"

With a loud shout, an old man in black robe with white beard and hair stomped on his feet, crossed the pond, and floated into the courtyard.

At the same time, people poured out from all directions, and surrounded Xiao Fan... Huaiyu Palace was heavily guarded, and Ming Zongyi vaguely noticed it when he came in, but when he actually saw this scene, he realized that I still underestimated the Huaiyu Palace—although it was a bit rude, but Ming Zongyi felt that Bo Xue had done too many bad things in his daily life. Hearing what Xiao Fan said, it seemed that they had agreed to meet before, but Bo Xue slipped away ...But this person is really not here now, he has been away for half a month.

Ming Zongyi can figure it out, let alone Lin Butler. Seeing that the field is gaining momentum, he will naturally not allow the situation to continue to deteriorate, so he hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute... Is this girl here to look for Master Shizi?"

"That's right." Xiao Fan said calmly, "Don't say that he just went out, I'm already tired of hearing such words, let him come out, otherwise the world will be turned upside down."

"What a big tone! I want to see how you can turn this place upside down!" The black-robed old man's eyes flashed, and his whole body breathed out. He had already entered the state completely, and could make a move at any time.

"Calm down, calm down."

Butler Lin tried to smooth things over, he looked at Xiao Fan, and asked tentatively, "Is this girl surnamed Jing?"

Xiao Fan's expression is calm, it's acquiesced—Ming Zongyi knew that Xiao Fan was a pseudonym, how could a girl be called this, unless a family member was kicked in the head by a donkey.

"Miss Jing... my young master has indeed gone out, and not in the last few days, he left home more than half a month ago, and it is estimated that he will not come back within two or three months. This matter is absolutely true, everyone in the palace knows about it..."

Before Steward Lin could finish speaking, the woman surnamed Jing interrupted her. Her expression was still as calm as water, but her whole body exuded a chilling aura.

"I said, I'm tired of hearing this kind of talk, Boxue... I'm hiding in some kind of tunnel dark room at the moment, I don't want to plow through here, but if you want to hide, I can only dig Three feet on the ground, find you out."

The seemingly violent old man in black robe didn't speak at this moment. He heard that the other party seemed to be an old acquaintance with Bo Xue, so he decisively shut his mouth.

"Miss Jing..." Ming Zongyi felt that he had something to do with this incident. If he hadn't sent Heng Kong to Ezhou, Bo Xue would not have left here. If there was a fight, he would have Somewhat responsible, he was too embarrassed to continue shrinking in the room, so he came out and said, "Bo Xue has indeed left Ezhou, and this matter has something to do with me, it is absolutely true."

"..."

The other party fell silent. She seemed to have been deceived by Bo Xue with this method, so she didn't believe anything.

Butler Lin said slowly:

"Miss Jing... my young master did indeed leave half a month ago and took a boat. Before he left, he wrote a letter and told me that if there is a girl surnamed Jing who is strong in martial arts If you come to him, give the letter to this girl, Miss Jing might as well read the letter first, and then make a decision."

The woman surnamed Jing didn't respond immediately. She looked around and said calmly, "Bo Xue, you know the consequences of my anger. I hope you really leave."

Naturally, it was impossible for Bo Xue to jump out to respond to her suddenly, and there was a brief silence in the field.

The woman surnamed Jing withdrew her gaze and looked at Steward Lin.

"A letter."

"In the study."

"lead the way."

Lin Butler responded, and gave the black-robed old man a look, indicating that you can leave. He seemed confident and confirmed that this matter would not become a big deal, so the black-robed old man could only follow suit.

"Come along too." Just as Steward Lin was about to take the woman surnamed Jing away, she suddenly said, her eyes pointed at Zong Yi, "You and I are destined to meet each other now, I want to know who he is What is the reason for leaving... If it is a lie, it is best to prepare all the details in advance, so as not to be exposed by me in time."

There was not much indisputable dominance in her tone, no matter how domineering she was, she always had such a calm tone.

Ming Zongyi knew he couldn't escape, so he complied immediately.

The three of them walked all the way, and on the way, the aura around the woman surnamed Jing gradually dissipated, and she turned back to that little transparent woman with no characteristics...Ming Zongyi was completely sure now, she had died earlier than herself. When I came to Huaiyu City, I asked the tea stall owner at the gate of the city for directions, but she was too ordinary, too ordinary, with no characteristics in her body, no wonder the tea stall owner couldn't recall her at all.

【"She actually came to look for Bo Xue too, why did she come here?"】

Suddenly, Ming Zongyi's heart shuddered, and he remembered a sentence that Gong Yin had inadvertently said more than a month ago when he was in Yinshan.

In the last era, besides the three of them, there was another 'freak'. Judging from the context at that time, this freak was also the same age as the three of them, that is, 26, seven or eight years old.

These two words came from the mouth of Gong Yin, who wanted to challenge Tianguan. The gold content was so high that it was hard to figure out... Could it be that the woman surnamed Jing is this freak?

【"Could it be her..."】

The three walked quickly, and soon came to Bo Xue's study.

Butler Lin walked into it, took a book from the shelf in front of the woman surnamed Jing, activated the mechanism inside, and took out a letter from the hidden compartment that was opened. This was not something that should be shown to outsiders. But Lin Butler let the two see it, and his subtext was nothing more than 'this is not a letter written on the spur of the moment, it has been here for a long time'.

"Miss Jing, please take a look."

The woman surnamed Jing took the letter and scanned it in a few glances, which surprised Ming Zongyi. He thought that the other party would read it word by word, but it didn't seem to be the case.

She calmly said: "I want to laugh when I look at what he wrote. I am always looking forward to the future that I don't know when it will come, and I promise that I don't know when it will be fulfilled... You said he is not here. , then let me ask you, where is he now?"

"This..." Lin Butler blushed, "I'm really ashamed, the young master never discusses things with others, and I don't know where the young master is now. I only know that he will return within two or three months. not coming."

——That’s not true, from Ezhou to the Western Regions, across half of China, it’s still a round trip, and you have to wait for the birth of the Demon Buddha, two or three months is a conservative statement.

Without waiting for the woman surnamed Jing to make the next round of harsh words, Steward Lin said slowly:

"Although I don't know the whereabouts of the young master, Mr. Ming may have some clues. The two of you seem to know each other. Why don't you two talk first?"

Chapter 72 Map Fragment

(PS There is only one chapter today)

Ming Zongyi believes that people should have a basic sense of shame.

Even a rice worm like Mu Ling, after eating the sugar used for cooking as a snack, will show off her cuteness with teary eyes, trying to get away with it—of course she will fail in a few seconds. Instead, he lay on the ground and said, 'That's right, I just ate it, so kill me'.

Even a grievance like Qu Chen, when he spends money in various places and fails to purchase enough supplies, will seriously review his mistakes to everyone, and then in the meeting between Shi Qinghuan and Li Huaisu Under duress to swear an oath or something... Although he has never been able to keep the oath, at least he had that attitude at the time.

People have to have a sense of shame. After doing bad things, they should at least show some embarrassment.

Like... using fake names to trick people.

Ming Zongyi very much hoped that the woman surnamed Jing could show some embarrassment on her face, after all, her use of a pseudonym was confirmed.

However, the woman surnamed Jing looked calm, without any superfluous look.

Ming Zongyi was a little unwilling to give up. He probably had some talent for killing, so he asked politely, "What's the girl's name?"

This question is more or less ambiguous, but Ming Zongyi didn’t show it in his tone, and the yin-yang ambiguity reflected in his tone is the lowest level—of course, yin-yang ambiguity, it doesn’t matter whether it is low-level or not, lethality High will do.

The woman surnamed Jing said calmly: "Jing Fan, Xiao is my mother's surname, and it was used as a pseudonym earlier."

"...?"

Ming Zongyi really couldn't stretch himself anymore.

【"I want to brighten you, I want to brighten your teeth!"】

【"You woman, do you think I'm a fucking fool?! It's so irritating! Can't you just change the name a little bit! If you change Fan into any other word, I'll believe it! How can you make me believe you! You fucking did it on purpose, absolutely on purpose!"]

Jing Fan put his hands on his chest and said lightly:

"What's the matter? With your expression, do you have any comments or advice on my name?"

Ming Zongyi immediately put on a smirk and went into business.

"Ah... I think it's a really good name. When it comes to thorns, it reminds people of thorns. It's a surname that brings hardships to people's roads. But, your parents named you a Fan The character, I think it is to neutralize the surname, it is really well-intentioned, a good name, a good name!"

"..." The other party probably didn't expect Ming Zongyi to respond like this, so he hesitated for a moment before responding.

"good."

Good for your size...Ming Zongyi slandered endlessly in his heart, and then he opened his mouth to strike first.

"I do know the whereabouts of Bo Xue, but he is going to an inconvenient place to do an inconvenient thing. You see, even Steward Lin doesn't know his whereabouts, so how can I just take him away?" Tell someone about your whereabouts, unless... I think you should know about it."

Jing Fan shook the letter in his hand.

"Is that not enough?"

"Of course not enough." Ming Zongyi said, "This can only prove that you really know each other, but if you entered the Huaiyu Palace like this, I think your relationship should be enemies rather than friends. You should at least show some other evidence. For example, some secrets about Bo Xue, to prove that you are friends, or other...Of course, I will not listen to other people's secrets, just let Butler Lin confirm it."

Jing Fan was stunned for a moment, she folded her hands on her chest, as if lost in memory.

Ming Zongyi thought she was recalling the past related to Bo Xue, to see if there was anything to prove her identity, but Jing Fan thought for a while, and thoughtfully said: "You say that... He and I are really not friends, at least not now, unless he gives me back what he should have given me."

Ming Zongyi's heart beat inexplicably. Could it be that what Jing Fan was talking about was the Tianguan Rumeng Token?

He tentatively asked: "May I ask, what does Bo Xue owe you?"

"...a fragment of a map."
