After refusing to be whitewashed, the regent was madly criticized for acting like a baby and begging for favor Chapter 197 The Third Martial Uncle Escaped from the Prison and Came for Chu Ling
Chapter 197 The Third Martial Uncle Escaped from the Prison and Came for Chu Ling
The junior brother's eyes lit up when he heard that she could call out his name accurately.
He nodded repeatedly, with a look of joy on his face.
He looked at Chu Ling with bright eyes.
Gu Yechen also stepped out of the carriage. Hearing the words of this junior brother, he suddenly turned his head and stared at the young man named String String.
The young man was originally quite happy to see Chu Ling, but suddenly he felt Gu Yechen's dagger-like eyes coming towards him, startling him.
The young man stood up straight in a hurry, looked at Chu Ling nervously, and whispered: "Senior sister, is this the regent?"
"Husband, this is Xian Yue, the youngest junior disciple my master has accepted. Please stop scaring others with such ferocity."
Chu Ling held Gu Yechen's arm, and then lowered her voice, "Husband, you have to be nice and smile, so as not to scare the children."
Child?
Gu Yechen's eyes fell on Xian Yue, looking up and down.
He obviously had some doubts about the adjective "child" used by Chu Ling.
Seeing that he still had a straight face, Chu Ling tugged lightly.
Gu Yechen reluctantly raised the corners of his lips, "Well, let's talk about it after we enter the house."
Xianyue slowly realized that this was the regent and the husband of his senior sister. He hurriedly saluted Gu Yechen with the salute gestures of the Xuanyi Sect.
"Crescent Moon has met the Regent."
After all, Gu Yechen had been in the Xuanyi sect before, so he was no stranger to this etiquette. He hummed softly.
His attitude was quite mild, and Chu Ling secretly found it funny.
She pulled Gu Yechen and said, "Okay, let's go into the palace and talk. After all, we are at the gate of the palace, so it's inconvenient to say more."
The group of people followed him into the palace.
Magpie and Ye Qi walked behind.
The magpie said: "Do you think this is a coincidence?"
Ye Qi turned her head inexplicably and asked, "What's a coincidence?"
What coincidence is this girl talking about? Does it mean that the appearance of the princess's younger brother is too coincidental, or does she want to express something else?
Magpie glared at the heartless Ye Qi in annoyance, snorted twice from his nostrils, and said in a very annoyed tone: "I accompanied the princess to the market today. The princess felt a strong smell in the crowd.
The evil spirit, this little junior brother showed up just after I came back."
Evil spirit?
It sounds very strange.
Even though Ye Qi had never learned occult arts, he had heard about catching ghosts and things like Yin Qi and evil spirits.
But he never thought that such a situation really happened in broad daylight?
"You..." Ye Qi was about to say something, but was pulled hard by Magpie.
Magpie tugged on Ye Qi's sleeve and said, "You sent people to keep an eye on this junior brother. I always feel that it's not easy."
She was not really worrying in vain, she really suspected that something was wrong.
Seeing the magpie's expression as if facing a formidable enemy, Ye Qi slowly landed on his sleeve.
This little girl has become less and less measured recently, especially when she likes to pull him, and she would deliberately distance herself from him when she saw him before...
Magpie was still talking about a few different things, but she was completely unaware that she was tugging on her sleeve.
She didn't hear Ye Qi's voice, nor did she hear his reply, so she said "Eh".
She raised her head in astonishment and looked at Ye Qi in confusion: "Why do you have this expression?"
Ye Qi's face was a little red, and even her ears were red.
This is not like the usual Ye Qi who kills decisively.
Facing the magpie's mouth that kept babbling, Ye Qi said awkwardly: "It's you, tugging on my sleeve."
Magpie lowered his head and saw that he was actually tugging on the man's sleeve. He let out a sigh, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. In the end, he let go of his hand generously.
There was no special reaction on Magpie's face, he just pretended to be fierce and said: "Remember, keep an eye on my junior brother!"
…
Chu Ling asked Xian Yue: "Why did you come down from the mountain? Why are you looking for me?"
Xianyue is fifteen years old this year, but the conditions in the mountains are somewhat difficult. The child is thin and thin, and looks like a fifteen-year-old boy.
He whispered: "Senior sister, I came here specifically to tell you something important. The criminal in the secret cell has escaped."
The secret prison of Xuanyi Sect imprisons some traitors who specialize in evil practices.
To say that he is a criminal, it is better to say that he has done something that is harmful to nature and has already violated the purpose of the occult medicine sect.
Chu Ling's eyes darkened, and she looked at Xian Yue: "Who is the criminal you are talking about?"
Xian Yue said: "It's that Third Master Uncle."
"Third Master Uncle?" Chu Ling swore that she had never seen this Third Master Uncle in all her years and following her master.
It seems that none of the master's brothers were very harmonious, especially when the master took charge of the Xuanyi sect, the contradictions amplified, and they eventually stopped communicating with each other.
It turns out there is another one in the secret cell.
Xianyue dug out a scroll from his baggage.
"This is a painting I found in the secret room of Master's warehouse. I didn't expect Master to actually have the portrait of Third Uncle in his collection."
The little guy handed the portrait to Chu Ling with a curious look on his face.
Chu Ling also took it curiously.
After she took it, she immediately glanced at the people in the portrait.
Needless to say, just by looking at this portrait, she really couldn't distinguish the appearance of this person. His face was full of beard and his appearance was rougher than Chu Changning's. She couldn't tell that he was a senior uncle of the Xuan Medicine Sect.
Master Chu Ling's mouth twitched helplessly as he stared at the portrait for a long, long time.
She probably didn't expect that this was the true appearance of the third uncle.
The beard was too thick and she couldn't determine the other person's facial features.
"Xianyue, how much do you know about your third uncle?" Chu Ling asked.
Xianyue shook his head and said with a confused look: "I only know that this third uncle is very powerful and mysterious. I don't know anything else."
Mysterious and powerful, this is also the news that Chu Ling knows.
Those three uncles are very powerful in mystical arts, even better than the master.
Now that the master is dead and he has escaped from the secret prison, his purpose should be easy to guess, but it is definitely not simple.
Chu Ling lowered her eyes and thought for a moment.
Xian Yue pointed at the portrait again and said: "Sister, this uncle has a very obvious birthmark from his neck down. As long as we find this, we will definitely find the third uncle."
When Chu Ling heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly.
She looked at the crescent moon strangely, with a bit of suspicion in her half-narrowed eyes.
Xian Yue, who was talking happily and excitedly, suddenly found his senior sister staring at him, and his expression paused, "Senior sister, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Why are you so eager to find Third Master Uncle?"
"Junior brother Xianyue, tell the truth to senior sister, and senior sister will not cause trouble for you. Do you understand?"
It may seem like gentle words, but in fact, Senior Sister's words are threats both inside and outside.
Xianyue shrank her neck in fear and said weakly: "Sister, I, I really don't mean anything else. I'm just afraid that my uncle will do bad things outside."
Chu Ling's eyebrows raised higher and higher.
She also said that she didn't know much about this uncle. She saw that this boy knew a lot about his uncle.
Otherwise, how would you know that Uncle Third Master would do bad things?
