Chapter 121 Received the invitation, Xiao En Xiaohui(1/2)
"You guys go back, I'm really fine. It's just that man interrupted me to practice and suffered some minor injuries." Jiang Yuechu said.
"Yue'er, I'd better stay and protect you." Feng Che said. He had a little regret for such an accident tonight, not to mention that the words that the young man left had been in his heart since the beginning.
"At the beginning of the month, there is indeed danger in the inn, and you still have injuries on your body..." Chi Lou said.
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other disdainfully.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuechu rubbed his temples that were painful and said, "If such a thing happens, the guards of the inn will be twice as high as before. The four monsters in the grave mountain will return if they have pits. That's it, I'm a little tired."
After saying that, he closed the door neatly. As for the two people who dislike each other, let them fight.
"How did you deceive her?" Chiyou looked at Feng Che and suddenly said.
Feng Che slightly tidied up his clothes, and slowly raised his eyes when he heard this, "Lie? Do you think everyone is like you?"
Chiyou's eyes swept across Feng Che with a pointing look: "Do you betray your lust?"
Feng Che smiled and refused to deny it, just said, "Yue'er is really satisfied with me like this... By the way, why are you so nervous? What's wrong with Tushanjiang's family? Don't you care about your cousin?"
Chi You had almost nothing to say after several consecutive problems. He admitted that he had failed in Jibei City's move, and his eyes turned slightly cold, "Don't be too proud, she will not tolerate deception."
"Haha, it turns out you know it, but it's too late, although I'm happy to see it happen." Feng Che said in anger that he was not worth his life.
In the end, the two of them naturally parted in disagreement.
———————————————
The next day, Jiang Yuechu opened his eyes. After a whole night of trimming, his injuries were almost healed last night.
When I opened the window, I saw that there were more officers and soldiers downstairs, and even two rows of people standing on the street. People passing by were a little nervous.
When Jiang Yuechu opened the door, he was stunned for a moment!
Feng Che and Chi You stood outside on the left and right. If they hadn't changed their clothes, she would have doubted whether these two people hadn't left!
"You...as for it?" Jiang Yuechu really couldn't understand why they were nervous.
Feng Che knew that Jiang Yuechu was doing well when she saw her injuries. He smiled and said, "It's fine if you're fine, go down and have a walk."
He completely ignored Chiyou.
Chiyou suddenly stepped forward, cleverly separated Feng Che, and said with a smile: "Now it seems that Yuechu's excellent medical skills are really a great thing. At least he can be cured in time when he is injured.
By the way, today the county magistrate sent me some news, you should be interested. I asked the restaurant to cook some side dishes and wait for you to go."
Chi You looked at Chi You a little surprised, as if... he was particularly enthusiastic today? If it were normal, he wouldn't compete with Feng Che face to face. After all, he could not compare with Feng Che's shamelessness, and robbing hard would lose his demeanor.
He subconsciously looked at Feng Che again. The latter smiled meaningfully for some reason, but he didn't stop him.
Jiang Yuechu guessed that Chiyou brought news from Xiao He, so he nodded and went downstairs with Chiyou.
There were many people in the restaurant, all of whom were trapped here. The order to enter and not exit had not been lifted yet. These people gathered together and complained quietly.
Chiyou prepared for a private room, which was relatively quiet.
There are indeed many snacks and side dishes on the table.
As soon as the two of them sat down, the door of the private room opened slowly with a creaking sound. Feng Che walked in and pulled the chair next to Jiang Yuechu and sat down. He looked at the table full of food and said with a smile: "Oh, I feel a little hungry, I guess you don't mind being alone, right?"
Jiang Yuechu's mouth twitched, thinking that she could never underestimate Feng Che's shamelessness, and she actually came up at this time.
Suddenly, I felt a little sympathetic to Chiyou. It was not that he was not strong enough, but that his opponent did not play according to common sense and their moves were not in line with...
Sure enough, Chiyou's face turned dark, "You are not welcome here, please go out."
Feng Che said, "We are all old acquaintances. Are you missing a couple of drools? If you really can't bear to give up a table of dishes, I'll invite you ten tables, what? I'll guarantee you won't lose money."
While speaking, he had already picked up a vegetable with chopsticks and ate it.
It's obvious that I'm not leaving...
"By the way, Chiyou, what are you going to tell me?" Jiang Yuechu suddenly asked. She had to quickly divert Chiyou's attention, otherwise this atmosphere would continue to be stalemate.
Chi You took a deep breath, and ignored Feng Che. He looked at Jiang Yuechu and said, "Last night... a few more people were poisoned, and it was still the Living Dead Gu."
Feng Che was eating slowly.
Jiang Yuechu raised his eyes, "What's going on now?"
Feng Che said: "The county magistrate made preparations in advance, and they suppressed their toxicity in time. It was also a three-day period. Without the deer and live grass, they could not be saved."
Jiang Yuechu nodded, thinking that the boy who last night was the young wolf among the four monsters in the grave mountain. She had always been impressed with the giant sword. However, how could that young wolf be interested in her? Could it be that he also wanted to refine her into a puppet?
"It seems I'm lucky." Jiang Yuechu said jokingly. Although it was a bit thrilling last night, the young wolf was beaten away by Feng Che in the end. "But... it turned out that the four monsters in the grave mountain came to poison themselves, which was a bit unexpected."
Chiyou narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "No, it's a bit strange. At the beginning of the moon, the young wolf entered your room, maybe not to poison it."
Jiang Yuechu: "Hmm?"
Feng Che's chopsticks paused.
Chi You continued, "Among the four monsters in the grave mountain, the other three are good at making and refining Gu, but the young wolf practiced sword skills. Moreover... there were more than a dozen people who were poisoned last night, and their cultivation was not weak, and their identity was not simple. The most important thing is that none of them were in this inn!"
Jiang Yuechu subconsciously raised his eyebrows, "Will that be a waste of time to guard the place strictly, the county magistrate would prevent it?"
"Actually, it's not a surprise. I just learned yesterday that all the deer grass in Xichuan County had been bought out. I should know that this matter is not simple. Sure enough, more than a dozen people were poisoned last night, and the poisoned people chose people with some influence. It's just one or two, but there are too many people, and it will be troublesome." Chi Hao said.
That's true, just like the person who was poisoned yesterday, the disciple of Xuanyuan Gate. Xuanyuan Gate is one of the seven sword sects of the five countries in Zhongzhou, and it is undoubtedly a heavyweight!
If the disciples of the sect died here for no reason, the master would be furious.
"Did it be that all the four monsters in the grave mountain were dispatched last night?" Jiang Yuechu said.
"This possibility is not ruled out, but one thing doesn't make sense... The grave mountain is a shameless place. Although it acts cruelly, it has never been so high-profile. At the same time, it offended so many forces. If it is united and encircled, the grave mountain will not be able to take advantage of it. I don't know why they did this." Chi Hao said.
Jiang Yuechu couldn't figure it out, and finally shrugged, "Is it really a poison from the grave?"
Chi You seemed to know what Jiang Yuechu meant, and said with a smile: "The Living Dead Gu is a poison that is prohibited from being refined in the Jianghu. If it is discovered, it will be punished by everyone. Only evil places like the Tomb Mountain can be found. Over time, the Living Dead Gu will naturally be the iconic poison of the Tomb Mountain."
"If so..." Jiang Yuechu was about to say something.
Feng Che touched her with his arm, "Yue'er, don't just talk, eat something."
Jiang Yuechu looked down and saw a lot of food piled up in her plate. The small river shrimp was peeled. She looked at Feng Che, picked up the chopsticks and ate...
As for what she was about to say, she forgot after she finished eating.
"Xiaohe's auction is approaching, and the county magistrate is more nervous than others, especially after what happened last night." Chiyou said again, "He made a decision early this morning to summon all the strong men to the city lord's mansion to protect Xiaohe. Until the day of the auction, all the expedited invitations had been sent."
It seems that the county magistrate was forced to do something urgent. The Living Dead Gu has suffered a lot. He can't give up so much energy. If Xiao He makes any mistakes, he will be angry to death!
So, let’s just have an open invitation to ask high-level monks to protect Xiao He. No one who receives the invitation should be unwilling to do so, right? After all, this is the first opportunity to approach Xiao He!
"It's also a good idea." Jiang Yuechu said.
Chiyou smiled, "It's good news for Yuechu."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Yuechu looked at him.
Chiyou quickly took out a gold-burned blue base invitation from her sleeve and handed it to Jiang Yuechu, "This is what I want for you. If you hold it, you can enter the county magistrate's mansion at any time. Isn't that good news?"
Jiang Yuechu took it and saw that the invitation had indeed written her name. This time, I was a little surprised! "What kind of strong man am I? I have to protect Xiao He, right? How did the county magistrate agree? Haha, Chiyou, you have too much face, right?"
After the words came, Feng Che's teacup hit the table and made a crisp sound.
Jiang Yuechu turned around and glanced. For some reason, Feng Che's expression was a little dissatisfied, but she didn't take it to heart.
Chi You smiled and said, "Listen to me, if there is any accident, you don't have to charge in order to protect Xiao He. You are an alchemist, and the county magistrate's mansion must have an alchemist on standby at all times. Even if you look at Xichuan County, there is no other person who is more suitable than you."
Jiang Yuechu suddenly felt that the invitation in her hand was a bit heavy, and she didn't expect Chiyou to make such arrangements for her!
After this meeting, for Xiao He, her attitude towards Chiyou has always been lukewarm and treated her with the idea of using each other. Now Chiyou is so dedicated that she feels a little ashamed...
After a while, Jiang Yuechu said: "Thank you."
Chiyou said, "You don't have to be so polite between you and me."
After that, the two talked about something else, all around Xiaohe, and Feng Che didn't care at all about drinking tea and acted as the background board.
After the three of them came out of the private room, they saw that the soldiers from the inn were evacuating in an orderly manner, and soon there was no one left!
"Have you caught the poisoned person? Did you just sleep with us for a day and a night in vain?"
"That's it! Even the county magistrate's office is too much!"
"I heard that the county magistrate's office is going to prepare for major events recently! That's why he is so cautious, guarding day and night, just to prevent people from causing trouble!"
"What's so exaggerated? Could it be...that rumor is true?"
"What rumor?"
"Xiao He... I heard that the dwarves repaired Xiao He and were bought by the county magistrate..."
"Stop talking! If there is Xiaohe, then I will be the Medicine Ancestor. Come on, give me Xiaohe back!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The people who were freed were making noise.
Jiang Yuechu heard the word "Xiaohe" and was about to listen carefully, but everyone started to make a fuss. The topic was too far-reaching and no longer mentioned it.
No one believed it.
Jiang Yuechu walked out of the inn, no longer delayed, and identified the direction and headed towards the county magistrate's mansion.
To be continued...
