Chapter 274: Wandering Soul
Chapter 274 Wandering Soul
Jiang Sheng looked at his palm. His fingers were slender and the three lines on his palm were clear. It was his own.
She stretched out her hand in the direction of Jiang Xian, and felt the soft touch of her skin, which was no different from ordinary ones. But as she stretched her hand farther and farther, the skin color became more and more transparent from her fingertips to her wrists, until finally her forearm completely passed through Jiang Xian's.
Sorry, no traces were left.
Jiang Sheng:……
Thinking of something, she quickly ran to the bronze mirror outside. Her position was reflected in the mirror, but there was no shadow of her.
Jiang Sheng was a little confused. After a while, he slowly remembered
——That body is not hers at all.
Even if he has the same appearance as her, he is not her.
Jiang Sheng woke up completely and had a vague understanding of his current state, which he accepted well.
She floated in front of Jiang Xian and poked Jiang Xian's face: "Sister, stop watching, I might not wake up."
"Even if I wake up, it won't be me."
"Did you hear that?"
Naturally, this was in vain. She sighed and muttered: "Have you sent someone to investigate the collapse of the pavilion?"
"Where is the kid I rescued now?"
While thinking about it, Jiang Xian suddenly raised his head, almost touching the tip of Jiang Sheng's nose.
Their eyes met, Jiang Sheng's eyes were unblinking, as if his sister could see him.
But she soon realized that this was just an illusion.
Because Jiang Xian quickly got up and left the bedroom.
Jiang Sheng hurriedly followed, her disembodied lightness allowing her to easily control her speed.
She saw Jiang Xian get on the carriage and walk towards the outskirts of Linyi.
It was too tiring to float like this, so Jiang Sheng walked through the curtain and entered the carriage.
Seeing the small table in the center of the carriage, Jiang Sheng subconsciously felt hungry. She wanted to take off the lid of the porcelain dish. The slightly rough bamboo lid felt familiar, but she couldn't pick it up.
Jiang Sheng quickly gave up in disappointment.
But the next second, a hand as white as jade lifted the bamboo cover.
——The plate was empty, without any pastries.
Jiang Xian frowned and didn't understand why he wanted to get the lid.
Jiang Sheng, who was in a wandering state next to him, was also thinking a little slowly. It took him a while to realize that his sister didn't often eat snacks, and the food on the small table was all prepared for her.
And she has been sleeping for so many days, where can she find food?
Jiang Sheng sighed and sat down obediently.
Three or four quarters of an hour later, they got off the carriage and transferred. Soon they arrived at their destination. Jiang Sheng looked around and recognized that this was Jinghe Temple.
Jiang Xian seemed to have made an appointment with someone and went directly into a dormitory.
There was a woman in her twenties sitting on a bamboo chair in the dormitory. Her neat attire was exactly the same as that of Ling Ying and Ling Yue who had stayed in the capital.
Linggui stood up and clasped his fists: "Master."
Without waiting for Jiang Xian to ask, she had already told the results of the investigation in the past few days: "...The other people who came to the temple to worship with the girl at that time went to see Luozi's tricks elsewhere. Only the girl and the other two girls were going to go
We were resting in the pavilion. When the pavilion collapsed, the girl was standing outside less than a step away. Fortunately, she had not yet entered the pavilion."
Jiang Xian nodded.
This is consistent with what Qing Jijiu and Qiao Zhi described.
"As for why the pavilion collapsed..."
Linggui continued: "Jinghe Temple was damaged by floods a few years ago. The repair money was allocated by the central government and the Su family contracted to do it. The existing evidence points to the Su family shoddy and cutting corners, causing the building to fail.
question."
"But we still can't completely rule out the possibility of deliberate action. Mo Qi and others are still continuing to investigate..."
Jiang Xian was silent for a while before asking: "Is there any news from over there?"
The reference of Jiang Xian's words was unclear, but Linggui naturally knew what his master was asking, and shook his head: "I went to see him last night, but I didn't find out."
Linggui frowned: "Is it just a coincidence?"
Jiang Xian sneered lightly: "Coincidence?"
If it was just a matter of the pavilion, she could still reluctantly believe in the word coincidence - but with too many coincidences connected together, it would inevitably appear to have ulterior motives.
Jiang Xian stood up and prepared to take a look at one of the places where the incident occurred.
She sent people to the temple that night when Jiang Sheng fell into coma and promised that as long as the results of the investigation were released, they would bear all the costs of subsequent repairs. Therefore, everyone in the temple, from the abbot to the monks sweeping the floors, were very cooperative.
The wreckage of the pavilion after its collapse has not yet been cleaned up, and the original appearance of the collapse has been retained. Jiang Xian looked around from beginning to end, but found nothing, and gave Linggui a few more words before turning and leaving.
"Master..." Linggui hesitantly called her.
Jiang Xian stopped and turned around.
Linggui's expression was solemn: "When I met Mo Qi last night, she mentioned that when her brother was seriously ill and couldn't find any doctor, in the end it was a barefoot doctor who's weird earth recipe had some effect."
Although Qing Mo Qi, her only relative, left her in the end, at least her brother stayed with her sister for a few more years.
Jiang Xian almost subconsciously heard the implication of Linggui's words. She said the word "good" without any change in her expression, but her voice was slightly hoarse.
"And..." Linggui lowered his head slightly, "Mo Qi said that Ji Jiu might plan to collect the punishment after returning to Beijing..."
In five days, they saw with their own eyes how their master forced himself to calm down, desperately suppressing his eagerness and worry, while searching Linyi to find the doctor, and thinking clearly, he ordered things one by one, so that all investigations could be carried out in an orderly manner.
.
They knew very well how important Jiang Sheng was to Jiang Xian.
Even so, Jiang Xian did not punish Qing Jijiu.
Linggui said: "Mo Qi guessed that Ji Jiu may have felt that he was not in a position to protect himself..."
Qing Jijiu has the highest martial arts skills among them, and it is precisely for this reason that he was sent to Jiang Sheng.
Jiang Xian's thoughts returned to the paper she saw two days ago. After a few seconds, she raised her hand and rubbed her temples with her middle finger.
"'Maybe'?" she asked.
"When you get back to the capital, let Mo Qi come find me."
The corners of her lips were hooked, but it added a hint of exhaustion to her entire face.
Jiang Xian knew what Qing Mo Qi meant.
Although Jiang Xian did not punish Qing Jijiu on the surface, no one knew whether Jiang Xian would exclude him from subsequent actions.
Qing Mo Qi and Qing Ji Jiu seemed to be at odds with each other, but in fact the two of them were close, so she naturally had to plan for her friend.
So there is no "possibility of Qing Mo Qi——", it's all just Qing Mo Qi's temptation.
Linggui said no more and just agreed.
Jiang Xian turned around and went down the mountain.
Jiang Sheng, who was listening in a fog, yawned lazily, floated on his sister's back, crossed his arms, and rested his head on the back of Jiang Xian's neck.
So sleepy.
But she did not fall asleep. Although she was groggy all the way, she could still sense the outside environment.
Until Jiang Xian stopped near the foot of the mountain.
This is where Jiang Sheng went down to pick up the child.
