After Cui Wan and Qin Qing teased her, Yang Chaoxi had to tell everything about what happened at noon. Hearing Tang Juan's expression keep changing, she turned her head away from time to time and gave Fang Qidou a fierce look.
When it came to the charming Hu Ji, Cui Wan took the feather duster from Tan Qing's hand and slapped his butt several times. When it came to Tianzhu Dancer's stunning appearance, Cui Wan,
Tan Qing's eyes were filled with fire, and he was sure that Zhu Wuji was Bao Si, a beauty as troublesome as Daji.
After the interrogation in the three halls, Yang Chaoxi collapsed on the wooden couch and looked at each other with Fang Qidou beside him. Fang Qidou spread his hands and said: She has always been like this, I have long been accustomed to it.
Yang Zhaoxi looked at Fang Qidou with a compassionate look, as if to say: You are the one who brought it upon yourself, right? At that time, I only looked at the face, but did not understand the character, so I just wanted to pursue Sister Tang for nothing. Now I have got my wish, and I have passed.
The days are in dire straits... If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?
Fang Qidou returned the look with disdain: You know nothing! I, Fang Qidou, like this kind of woman who is cool, arrogant, and has a bit of a worldly temperament. What she likes is that she talks about it for three days and three nights.
Not finished, you are a hairless little Taoist priest, you are just envious and jealous.
Yang Zhaoxi ignored this guy who had just been punished by his wife to sleep in the guest room, and felt confused: It turns out that what the book said about treating each other as guests, raising eyebrows when raising cases, and husbands and wives following each other are all deceptive allusions! It turns out that Confucianism is the best at whitewashing peace... thinking like this
, actually fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up the next day, Fang Qidou, who was sleeping soundly on his side, had long disappeared. Yang Zhaoxi quickly finished dressing, left the guest room, and met the busy housekeeper of Fang Mansion. Upon inquiry, he found out that Fang Qidou had crossed the sky early in the morning.
Yun Cong went back to Luocheng to camp and Yingmao.
Yang Zhaoxi recalled the adventure he had when he returned yesterday, and couldn't help but sigh: "The city gate is on fire, and the fish in the pond are in trouble." Fang Qidou is so henpecked, why didn't he notice it before? He is really careless in making friends and being unkind to others.
After sitting there for a moment, the servants of Fang Mansion brought the morning meal over. After a brief meal and a few words, Yang Zhaoxi strolled into the courtyard and knocked on the door of the guest room next door: "Wan'er, Junior Sister Qin, are you up?
?”
"Is this Senior Brother Chong Lingzi? Wait a moment, he'll be here soon." Tan Qing's silver bell-like voice came from the room.
The grille on the door was covered with translucent oil paper. After a while, a shadowy outline, reflecting the oil paper, slowly came closer.
With a "squeak", the door opened, and the girl with a double-snail bun leaned out half of her body and said with a smile: "Brother Chong Lingzi, are you looking for Senior Sister Cui or me? Senior Sister Cui had a pain in her lower abdomen last night.
, I haven’t gotten up yet, why don’t I go to your room to talk?”
"Xiao Nizi, who said I didn't get up? Let him come in!" Another voice was gentle, but a little tired.
"In the past few days, let Wan'er drink less cold water and avoid eating cold things, which may relieve the pain..." Yang Chaoxi said casually as he entered the door.
"Senior brother...you even know this? I hate...why do you say it out loud?" Tan Qing turned slightly red and glared at him.
"I am familiar with Senior Brother Huang Shuo, so I know the art of dianqihuang and what Guishui is..." Yang Chaoxi explained slightly awkwardly, "I came here early in the morning to talk to you, Junior Sister Qin.
Tell me something you heard yesterday."
Cui Wan, with her long hair disheveled and not yet dressed up, was sitting in front of the small desk by the window.
I saw her holding a black pen in her hand, facing the bronze mirror, briefly swiping her eyebrows, and then stood up and came over, with a certain charm of "but she dislikes the makeup and pink color, and lightly swipes her eyebrows towards the Supreme".
Yang Zhaoxi calmed down, kept the moment of surprise in his heart, and said straight to the point: "I met Yuchi Yuan and Long Zaitian yesterday. The first thing that can be confirmed is that the culprit who killed Senior Sister Luo was a tiger.
The incarnation of a demon. And this incarnation has been subdued by a mysterious man, so..."
"So, even if the Gongmen sea arrest documents were scattered like snowflakes, it would be of no use at all?" Cui Wan frowned slightly, trying to break through what he was about to say. Yang Chaoxi nodded silently.
"Who is the mysterious man? Why did he take away the incarnation of the tiger monster? Is he behind the scenes or an accomplice?" Tan Qing was indeed attentive and caught a small fishy spot, and immediately asked three questions in succession.
"I can be sure that the mysterious man has nothing to do with the tiger demon. He came here for the ghost ghost. As for his true identity, I have already guessed 70% of it. I just promised him that I cannot reveal his name."
Yang Zhaoxi is confused.
"If the incarnation is subdued, the tiger demon will definitely not give up. It will follow the trail and take revenge on my Taoist sect, right?" Cui Wan guessed, with worry in his eyes.
"Of course it's possible. Senior Brother Fang and I also thought about it, so we asked Senior Long Zaitian for some tips. Then we could lend him a few magic weapons and use them to fend off the monsters. But if we want to catch monsters, the only place in Luoyang is
Only with the help of experienced Taoists with profound Taoist skills can they be foolproof. But on this point, I am powerless." Yang Chaoxi sighed.
However, Tan Qing stood up suddenly, and the gold and jade jingled around his waist.
She smiled as brightly as a flower and said: "This is actually simple. People die for money and birds die for food. As long as they are promised huge profits, there will always be talented and bold Taoists who are willing to take action. Although our Qin family is not an official, we are from the imperial business family.
What is not lacking is money. When I get back, I will ask my father to give more incense money to the Taoist temple who is good at catching monsters, and this matter will be a sure thing."
"If this is the case, it will cost Tan Shibo a lot of money." Yang Zhaoxi said solemnly, cupping his fists.
"We, the four sisters, have been practicing Kun Dao under Master since childhood. Even if we are sisters from the same mother, we are not as affectionate as us. Chong Lingzi, you don't have to be so polite." Cui Wan's expression changed slightly.
, explained on the side.
Yang Chaoxi nodded and said: "Since this tiger demon has an incarnation, its sorcery is naturally powerful. The two seniors also advised us not to take the initiative to provoke it. If it comes to the door, we can try our best to control it. Therefore, although the tiger demon is
The culprit is also the easiest to find out who is behind the scenes, but there is no rush. After you left yesterday, Senior Brother Fang and I analyzed it and found two feasible methods, which are worth a try."
Cui Wan and Tan Qing put their chins in their hands and both looked over at them: "Don't show off! Speak quickly."
Yang Zhaoxi pressed her elbows on the case and continued: "If Senior Sister Luo was silenced because she overheard the secret conversation between Hong Taizhu and Chen Shaoyin, then only the dredging of the river can connect the two of them. So this matter
, I’m going to explore it in detail.”
"What's the other way?" Cui Wan urged.
"Several of Sister Luo's personal belongings, such as flowers, swords, and embroidered shoes, were all found near the Zoroastrian Temple. Zoroastrian people are secretive in their behavior and will not be unaware of it, so whether this is a frame-up or not,
Everyone should go to the Zoroastrian Temple to investigate and find out who did it."
After Yang Zhaoxi finished speaking his thoughts, he breathed a sigh of relief and waited for their reactions. However, Cui Wan and Tan Qing were still staring at him, as if they were still waiting for the next sentence.
"Hehe! Senior Brother Chong Lingzi, what you said to me and Senior Sister Cui is not going to be unintentional, right? What do you need us to do?" Tan Qingbingxue was smart and was the first to react and said crisply.
"Junior Sister Qin, please speak quickly!" Yang Zhaoxi praised softly, "I want to know what credible opinions the public has on the dredging of rivers in Luoyang City. Or if we go one step further, I can quietly sneak into the river by myself.
At the dredging site, let’s see what Hong Taizhu and the others have planned? What other forces have reached out? I think there will be gains.”
Cui Wan raised her eyebrows lightly: "It's more convenient for me to handle these things. Cui has always been devoted to her official career, and it couldn't be easier to find out information from the public servant or insert someone into it! But, Chong Lingzi, why do you want to commit the crime alone?
Danger? Can’t Senior Gongsun, Senior Brother Zhuo, and Senior Brother Huang, who are currently guests at Linji Temple, go explore these together?”
Yang Chaoxi couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Actually, I am going down the mountain alone this time, and I have some secrets that I have to tell you in advance to avoid embarrassment in the future. In fact, I have officially escaped from Shangqing Temple, and now I can be regarded as a wandering Taoist priest without any sect."
"Chong Lingzi, you...why is this? It turns out that what Senior Gongsun said that day at Linji Temple was true!" Cui Wan said in surprise.
"I won't mention the reason... In the past few years, I have gradually felt that although the Tao emerges from the mortal world, it is not separated from the mortal world. As long as the Taoist heart is strong, one can practice Taoism anywhere. So I thought that maybe I should travel to this mortal world.
Ichiban, or be a ranger, or be a soldier recruiter, or be a sackcloth fortune teller...
The master of the temple naturally refused, but I had already decided to go, so he left a Taoist book for me and let me go down the mountain. He also specially asked me to help with the matter of Senior Sister Luo."
When Yang Chaoxi said this, his expression was a bit sad. Thinking of everything he had experienced in the past month or so, it felt like a lump in his throat. When Cui Wan and Tan Qing saw him like this, they didn't rush him, but just looked at him quietly.
After being lost for a moment, Yang Zhaoxi raised his head again and said slowly: "So seeking justice and the truth on behalf of Senior Sister Luo has been a friendship for many years between you and me, but for me, it is a matter entrusted to me by the Master.
It is a mission. If you cannot fulfill it perfectly, not only will your Taoism be damaged, but your conscience will also be guilty."
After hearing this, Cui Wan and Qin Qing both lowered their heads and remained silent. On the one hand, they were guessing in their hearts what changes had happened to him that caused him to change his mind. On the other hand, they were worried about gains and losses, wondering how they should get along with him next.
will be alienated by him.
Cui Wan pondered for a long time, and slightly opened her red lips: "Chong Lingzi, even if you are extremely talented, you will still have some ill-thoughts. Why not...come to my Cui Mansion as a guest, dad and the others have recruited some staff, who are the best at planning,
Make a decision, I can ask them to help you with the details."
Tan Qing also smiled and said: "Sister Cui is right. Even if you want to investigate, you must first find out the situation and know yourself and the enemy! My father has said that the water in Gongmen is the deepest, and there are most people with keen minds and all-round skills.
.
Also, Senior Brother Chong Lingzi! You haven’t taught me the lightening technique of ‘crossing the river with a reed’ yet! So no matter what happens, you must save your life and come back in good health.”
"Yes! If you don't come back in good condition, Junior Sister Qin will not be able to learn the light skill of 'crossing the river with a reed'. Junior Sister Cui said five years ago that her wish to surpass you in swordsmanship will come to nothing!"
"Tang Juan suddenly appeared outside the guest room door, looking at the three of them with a playful expression.
Hearing this, Cui Wan and Tan Qing's pretty faces suddenly turned red.
Cui Wan said angrily: "Sister Tang, who wants you to talk too much! At that time, I was arrogant and arrogant, so I said some unreasonable words. Why do you mention it?"
"But, if Junior Sister Qin and I both want to see you subdue Chong Lingzi with Cui's swordsmanship, how can you bear to disappoint us two?" After Tang Juan finished speaking, she burst out laughing.
Tan Qing also quickly switched sides, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Senior sister is unparalleled in her grace, and I am eagerly waiting for you!"
Cui Wan became angry with embarrassment. He stood up suddenly and reached out to grab Tan Qing. He wanted to teach this little girl a lesson, but Tang Juan stepped in and blocked him in front.
Cui Wan kept attacking, and even grabbed Tang Juan's towering peak with one claw. Then he couldn't help but giggle: "Senior Brother Fang is not at home! My Master Cui just happened to try his wife..."
"Bah! A woman who has not yet left the court said such shameless dirty words!" Tang Juan scolded, and without stopping, she slapped Cui Wan on the butt, "Oh! It's so big, it's easy to give birth to.
Woman, Junior Brother Yang, you are blessed!"
Yang Zhaoxi left early and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw the three girls playing and having fun. However, the three girls' voices were cute and charming, and their smiles were like silver bells. They were like a vivid picture, and he couldn't move away.
pace.
When I was lost in thought, I was suddenly teased by Tang Juan, and suddenly I remembered the misunderstanding when I first met Cui Wan. I felt ashamed and ran out of the guest room as if I was running away.
The laughter came from behind again, coincidentally.
