() Ximen Qing turned over and sat up, looking at the familiar environment, and then he realized that he seemed to be in a dream.
However, the conversation with Zhenren Luo just now was so clear, was it really a dream?
"Master, you wake up!"
Before Ximen Qing could think about it carefully, his train of thought was interrupted by Xueer's yelling.
Beside the bed, Xue'er and Pan Jinlian were accompanying each other, with anxious and excited faces. Wu Song, Shi Qian, Yan Qing and others sat a little further away and hurriedly came over to check. Ximen Qing could see that
the concern in their eyes
"Brother Xiao Yi, hurry up and ask Dr. An to take my master's pulse!" Pan Jinlian ordered urgently: "Tell him that the master is awake!"
Yan Qing had a thankful expression on her face and flew away.
"How long have I been unconscious?" Ximen Qing looked out the window, the darkness was slowly fading: "What time is it now?"
"It's almost Mao hour." Shi Qian, the drummer, replied firmly: "Brother, how do you feel about your health?"
Ximen Qing looked at the concerned eyes of everyone in front of him and said with a smile: "I guess there is nothing serious about my health. I just didn't pay attention and used the spell too violently for a while."
After saying this, Ximen Qing was about to get up, but Xue'er and Pan Jinlian looked at each other and pressed one's shoulders and the other's feet to prevent Ximen Qing from getting up.
"Sir, let Shen Shen An take a look at it before we talk." Seeing Ximen Qing getting up in a hurry, Pan Jinlian persuaded him, "Don't leave any trouble."
Ximen Qing smiled and said: "Of course I know my body is just a dream. Why are you so nervous?"
"It's coming, it's coming!" Yan Qing reached out and pushed open the door. Behind him was the miracle doctor An Daoquan.
It seemed that An Daoquan had also been up all night. Seeing Ximen Qing sitting on the bed, he hurriedly went over to sit down. Without saying anything, he grabbed Ximen Qing's arm and took his pulse: "This time you believe me.
I told you that there is nothing wrong with my boss's health, he was just unconscious for a while. Let me take a closer look."
"Miracle doctor, didn't you say you didn't know when I would wake up from the coma?" Pan Jinlian asked: "My master has been unconscious for an hour now. The doctor should be more careful and don't leave any consequences."
An Daoquan felt his pulse and nodded: "The natural pulse is stable, there is nothing wrong with it."
"I'm fine." Ximen Qing frowned and said: "Xiao Tianqing died for me, must this revenge be avenged? Don't tell me that I have been here with you without any action."
"Second brother, where is Xiao Tianqing's body now? What is the current situation?"
Wu Song replied solemnly: "Stop in the side hall. At present, people in the village are in panic. King Chao Tian ordered that the murderer must be traced and the area was cordoned off to prevent another accident. Brother, even King Chao Tian came to visit the village in person last night.
"Back"
Ximen Qing gently pulled his wrist away from An Daoquan's hand and interrupted: "Then did you tell King Chao Tian that the murderer was Hua Rong?"
"Already told." Wu Song nodded and said, "Chao Tianwang has sent people to closely monitor Hua Rong's residence. It is said that Hua Rong stayed behind closed doors after returning home, and you are still in a coma, so he has not taken action for the time being."
"Very good." Upon hearing this, Ximen Qing patted the bed board gently: "Let me get up."
Xue'er and Pan Jinlian were worried about Ximen Qing's health, and immediately looked at An Daoquan, hoping to get an authoritative answer from the miracle doctor.
An Daoquan nodded slightly: "My boss is fine."
After De'an Daoquan said this, the two girls felt relieved and started to help Ximen Qing get up. When Ximen Qing finished dressing and was about to speak, there was a burst of bowel sounds in his stomach. It must have been an hour since he got up, and his stomach was already empty.
Ximen Qing smiled bitterly and said, "I wanted to set off right away, but I need to sacrifice at the Five Zang Temple first."
"Where to go?" Wu Song and others asked in unison.
Ximen Qing sighed softly: "Of course I carried Xiao Tianqing's coffin to Hua Rong's house! At this point, why bother covering it up?"
"Okay!" Wu Song's eyes seemed to have two flames beating: "No matter who it is, they can't stop it!"
"I'll go too!" It was Xue'er who stood up, her eyes very firm: "There are not only Hua Rong, but also Hua Yuerong!"
"Xue'er, I understand what you mean." Ximen Qing nodded and said, "Although Hua Rong is guilty, Hua Yuerong is innocent."
Xue'er nodded silently. When she was in Qinghe County, Xiao Tianqing was her sister and brother, and he was also the master's servant. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed, and Xiao Tianqing risked her own life and blocked the key moment for the master.
arrow.
That arrow was shot by Hua Rong and had nothing to do with Hua Yuerong.
Without Hua Rong to rely on, Hua Yuerong's next days can only be imagined.
So Xue'er decided to bring Hua Yuerong back. At this time, only Xue'er could do it.
Ximen Qing then ordered: "Third brother, go to the blacksmith shop behind the mountain and call back the golden leopard Tang Long and the blood-blowing soldiers. Let Liu Tuozi choose the best twenty or thirty. Can you get the weapons from Tang Long?"
One batch."
Shi Qian turned around and left without saying a word.
"What to do with the soldiers blocking the door?" Wu Song asked: "With Shi Qian's skill, naturally those soldiers will not be alarmed, but Tang Long and Liu Tuozi"
Ximen Qing thought for a moment and said, "Who is the leader?"
"The Ruan brothers and Liu Tang." Wu Song replied: "At this time, the only ones the King can rely on are them. The four of them were divided into two squads and took turns patrolling with soldiers."
Ximen Qing nodded and said: "The king's choice is correct. Second brother, go out and see who is on duty. Please come in and have dinner. Don't say anything about me being sober."
"Understood." Wu Song nodded and went out.
The people on duty at the door were Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi. Although it was already March or April, it was still a bit chilly when the sun had not risen.
So they asked the soldiers to build a fire and build two benches to sit on at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Brother Liu Tang, why do you think this kind of thing happened in the village?" Ruan Xiaoqi muttered to Liu Tang: "The leaders are drinking and eating meat in harmony, who can do something secretly?"
"It's said to be Hua Rong." Liu Tang also replied in a low voice: "People are in panic right now, so don't go around talking about things that Brother Tianwang is not allowed to talk about."
Ruan Xiaoqi sighed and said: "No, I heard that Hua Rong and the concubine of the Ximen family lost in the arrow competition a few days ago, but it's not like he is so narrow-minded and hurts people with secret arrows?"
"It's not all about this." Liu Tang said mysteriously, "Think about it, who is behind Hua Rong?"
Ruan Xiaoqi thought for a while, couldn't help but shuddered and jumped up from the bench: "How is it possible that you don't say it's Song Gongming?"
"Low down!" Liu Tang quickly pulled Ruan Xiaoqi away and said, "It's hard to talk about this kind of thing until it's proven, but Hua Rong is just such a sworn brother, so he has to make people suspicious."
Then the red-haired ghost Liu Tang winked at Ruan Xiaoqi again, and then looked at the soldiers not far away: "Who knows if there are people from Song Jiang among these soldiers, it would be bad for the word to spread."
Ruan Xiaoqi looked coldly and saw one or two of the soldiers looking here intentionally or unintentionally. He coughed and threw some dead branches into the fire. He pretended to stretch out his hand to warm the fire and said loudly: "It's really him today."
Damn it’s cold. You guys, come over and warm yourself by the fire!”
Most of the soldiers responded and gathered around to warm themselves over the fire. Ruan Xiaoqi saw that the two suspicious soldiers were hesitant and slower than the others, so he knew that his suspicion was right.
Ruan Xiaoqi looked at him and handed him over. The red-haired ghost Liu Tang nodded slightly to indicate that he understood. He went up and grabbed one of them on the chest and pretended to shout: "You did a good thing!"
The soldiers around were a little surprised. The soldier's eyes were full of panic, and he was hesitating and speechless. The other soldier turned around and ran away, and was slapped by Ruan Xiaoqi. He jumped from the ground like he was catching a chicken.
He brought it up: "Why are you running?"
Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi asked their soldiers to tie them up. They knelt down in front of the bench and asked, "Why are you two birdies so worried?"
The two soldiers looked at each other, bowed their heads and said nothing.
Ruan Xiaoqi sneered twice, raised his hair and gave each of them two slaps in the face. He pointed at his nose and cursed: "The master is talking, but you two birdies are eavesdropping! Killing you is like squeezing an ant to death."
!Say, who told you to eavesdrop?"
The two soldiers were beaten till death, and there was blood coming out of their noses. One of them hesitated and said: "It was the military advisor who asked us to report the news, and then promoted us to squad leaders."
"It turns out he is Mr. Scholar!" Ruan Xiaoqi said with some surprise: "He is really a person with a deep heart. He likes to do things behind his back after studying too much. Brother Liu Tang, what do you say?"
Liu Tang did not expect that Zhiduoxing Wu Yong would be implicated at this moment, and suddenly felt something was wrong: "This matter is of great importance, so it is best to mention it to Brother Tianwang to know about it."
Ruan Xiaoqi nodded and ordered other soldiers to continue guarding, while he and Liu Tang were escorted to find Chao Gai.
At this moment, Wu Song opened the courtyard door and came out. Seeing this, he said, "Wait a minute, you two."
"It turns out it's Brother Erlang." Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi saw that it was Wu Song, and stepped forward to greet him: "How is the situation of Miao Ximen?"
"I haven't woken up yet." Wu Song got Ximen Qing's order and hid the fact that he was awake: "I just saw that the two of you were working hard, so I came in to have some drinks and food. What happened to these two soldiers, and why were they tied up?
"
"Thank you Erlang for your kindness, and we will exempt you from the banquet and meal." Liu Tang said with cupped hands: "These two birdmen have done some unclear things and are about to be taken to the king of heaven to deal with them."
Wu Song was careful. If the soldiers did not obey orders, or their hands and feet were unclean, Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi could just deal with it themselves. Why should they be taken to Chao Gai?
"I'm afraid it's not that simple, you two?" Wu Song chuckled and said, "Please come and sit in the courtyard, there are some things that are difficult to say outside."
Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi were also smart people and knew that Wu Song had something to say, but it was just not convenient.
"You guys have watched these two birdmen. If they run away, you are the only one to ask!"
Liu Tang and Ruan Xiaoqi followed Wu Song into the courtyard. Wu Song closed the door and whispered: "My eldest brother has just woken up. It's just that the situation is unclear at the moment, so I asked you two to come in and talk."
