Chapter Fourteen Pursuit(1/2)
Not finding any loopholes in his words, Song Yuan had to find a solution from the evidence. However, after searching the medical center for a long time, he never found any clues worthy of his attention. He only came to one conclusion: this doctor
The hotel is really poor.
Fortunately, his hard work paid off, and he finally found some clues. The soil where the two garlic plants were planted seemed to have signs of fresh stirring.
"Do you mind if we dig it up?" Song Yuan asked Jiang You.
"I told you I don't mind." Jiang You pretended to be nervous, "But just help us recover after the search."
Song Yuan tried to dig up the loose soil. He quickly discovered something was wrong and picked up a bit of soil and smelled it.
"The smell of burning fabric, what did you bury underneath?" Song Yuan asked.
Jiang You smiled bitterly and said: "People always have their own secrets, right? Brother, why don't you forget about it?"
Song Yuan didn't say much, he continued digging down, and finally dug out a package at a depth of three feet.
"What did you hide? Could it be evidence that you were hiding from the light?" Song Yuan asked, but after opening the package, he discovered that there were hundreds of primeval stones inside.
"What's going on?" Song Yuan asked doubtfully.
Jiang You then explained: "Didn't I mean to run errands for that person? So I secretly received some kickbacks, thinking that after repaying the hospital fees, I could collect the travel expenses back to Jingzhou. And there is no safe place in this yard, so I just
It can be buried underground. But since it has been dug out, there is no need to bury it back. Just help me fill it with soil."
"Why does the soil smell like burning?" Song Yuan asked again.
"Is this the smell of money? Why do you think Yuan Stone has a burning smell? Why don't you analyze it for me?" Jiang You asked again.
Song Yuan gritted his teeth. Jiang You's words once again made him unable to refute, and it would be strange if he was really impoverished. In desperation, he could only fill up the soil and even replanted two garlic plants.
"Excuse me, if you have any information about that woman, please inform us. We will definitely reward you heavily." After saying this, Song Yuan was about to leave.
Jiang Youque asked: "Is there anything missing? I'm going to the county town for a visit in the next few days. How about I give the key to the uncle and aunt next door for safekeeping? You can check it as you like in the future."
"You want to leave?" Yue Lian asked warily.
Jiang You nodded and said: "Uncle and aunt are right, people can't stay in the house all the time. Now that I have paid off the medical bills, I want to go back and take a look."
"When will we set off?" Yue Lian asked again.
"After lunch, do you have any questions?" Jiang You asked, pretending to be confused.
"No problem, I wish you a good time." After Yue Lian said that, he and Song Yuan left the hospital.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Jiang You also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had dealt with it, but what should he do next? Is Lin Yan good at hiding Jiang You's identity for the time being?
Of course, he didn't forget about the uncle and aunt next door. He knocked on the door next door. Although he didn't have to pretend like before, the embarrassment was lingering.
Jiang Youzheng was about to ask a question, but the aunt said directly: "I know what you want to ask. In fact, we don't know either. We are just servants hired by Miss Nanlan. We just follow her instructions to help you when necessary."
"Then who is she?" Jiang You asked again.
"I told you that we don't know. We only know that this is the property of the Lin family. Our task is to wait here. Once Miss Nanlan or someone arranged by her shows up, we are just responsible for entertaining them." The aunt still shook her head.
.
Since the other party didn't want to say anything, Jiang You knew that no matter how much he asked, it would be in vain, so he continued: "I have to go out for a while, and I don't know when I will come back. If Nan Lan comes back, tell her, and I will definitely come back.
.”
"We will help you with the message." The uncle nodded.
"Thank you." Jiang You said and went back to the hospital to pack his things. Of course, the most important thing was to find a way to get rid of the two of them.
…
It is said that Song Yuan and Yue Lian did not go far after leaving the medical clinic. Instead, they found a private room on the second floor of a teahouse within the scope of their spiritual consciousness. While drinking tea, the two of them monitored the activities of the medical clinic.
"By the way, Jiang You is not a thief with a guilty conscience and wants to escape, right? Why don't we arrest him and torture him for questioning?" Yue Lian asked while sipping tea.
Song Yuan did not raise his head, he just sorted out the character relationship diagram by himself, and responded in his spare time: "This is the stupidest thing to do. I found that we have never considered how deep the water in this case is."
"What do you mean?" Yue Lian asked confused.
Song Yuan explained: "We ran around in this case and seemed to have found a lot of key evidence. However, the funny thing is that we don't even know how they left Huxiao Mountain under the siege of countless people."
"So what? We have to find an entry point, right?" Yue Lian asked puzzledly.
Song Yuan shook his head and said: "If you were the mysterious guide, how would you escape from Huxiao Mountain?"
Yue Lian said lightly: "Actually, there are only three possibilities. The first is that she is one of us, and it is impossible to find her by herself; the second is that she has methods that we don't know about, and she can do it in front of us.
She left in a dignified manner; the third thing is that she did not leave, but hid in the Tiger Roaring Mountain using means unknown to us."
Song Yuan shook his head and said: "If it is the first possibility, it is said that this person's background is just the Lin family. If it is the second and third possibility, it will be troublesome. You also said that she has methods that we cannot understand. After all,
We are just Qi practicing monks."
"Are you afraid?" Yue Lian asked puzzledly, "Maybe she is just a little weird in her methods. Xinghai Town doesn't even have the Lianhe Dan monks, so there is no need to worry too much. After all, we have the support of the head of the Lin family, and he is the No. 1 in Xinghai Town.
one person!"
"Look at this relationship table I compiled!" Song Yuan handed the notebook to Yue Lian and said: "This seems to be just an internal fight among the Lin family's children, but everything is weird. Lin Xu, Lin Yan,
Lin Yan's parents all have one thing in common, that is, they are involved with King Zhongwu. Needless to say, Lin Xu was an orphan saved by King Zhongwu, and his adoptive father was a soldier of King Zhongwu. Lin Yan, Lin Yan
Their parents died searching for the remnants of the Xirong. In addition, Lin Xu, Lin Yao, Jiang You, and Yan Lan were connected to the death of Tianjiwei, and the duty of the Tianjiwei in Xinghai Town was to investigate the lurking remnants of the Xirong."
"This may all be a coincidence. The Lin family is originally a retainer of the Huo family, and everyone can be related to King Zhongwu. As for the matter of Tianjiwei, isn't it finalized? He took too many supplements and went crazy and died."
Yue Lian shook his head slightly and said.
"You are right, but when all this is mixed with the mystery of the case, it becomes no longer simple." Song Yuan shook his head and said: "We can boldly guess that if the seventeenth and fifteenth outer sects who killed each other are not themselves,
Then all our speculations must be overturned! Don’t forget that there is a branch of the Demon Cult in the Western Regions that was defeated from Dahua. They are particularly good at seizing bodies. The reason why we can still stand here drinking tea is because we don’t
We just found the key evidence that the Tianji Guard has found! So Lian'er, let's give up! Now that we have become a guest of the Lin family, shouldn't we be satisfied with the fine clothes and fine food?"
"You mean Lin Xu, Lin Yan's disappearance was not because she got some treasure, but because she was taken away by the remnants of Xirong? Then why is Lin Yan still alive?" Yue Lian asked confused.
"Perhaps she is no longer Lin Yan!" Song Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "Her existence may have the same role as Jiang You, which is to assist the remnants of Xirong hiding in Huxiao Mountain and purchase supplies for them. Since Lin Yan
Yan, then there is no need for Jiang You to exist, so he chose to leave here."
"What evidence do you have?" Yue Lian asked doubtfully.
Song Yuan still shook his head and said: "No, it's all based on speculation, especially because of Lin Xu's rapid improvement in strength and Lin Yan's rise from obscurity to brilliance. Perhaps it can only be understood by seizing the body. So I think it's better to invite Lin
The clan leader asked people from the Tianji Guard to come over and investigate. If we rely solely on our strength, even self-protection will be a problem."
"Are you scared after all?" Yue Lian said lightly.
"No, I'm just worried about you." Song Yuan explained.
"No need." Yue Lian shook his head and said, "Don't you think this is an opportunity? Once you feel it is true, once we find the definite evidence of the remnants of Xirong, don't you think this is an opportunity to reach the sky in one step? Don't
I forgot how high the rewards for the remnants of Xirong are!"
"But after all, we know nothing about our enemies. What if the Lin family has been invaded by Xirong? This is the gateway to the Hua Dynasty, and Xirong may have set up here a long time ago. Now that we have become guests of the Lin family, it is very likely that we will be invaded by Xirong.
Implicated." Song Yuan advised again.
"Isn't that a greater credit?" Yue Lian asked.
Song Yuan was also stunned, then shook his head and said: "Lian'er, you haven't changed. I find that I can't understand you more and more."
Yue Lian shook his head slightly and said: "I haven't changed, I know it very well in my heart. I have always felt that I can go further on the road of cultivation with you hand in hand. I don't want to live my life in an ordinary way, and I don't want to regard foundation building as a lifelong goal.
Pursuit, I want to go further and further, you know? I have no background. If I want to achieve my goals, I must seize every opportunity and make more efforts and sacrifices than others. Brother Yuan,
do you understand what I mean?"
"So you think I'm holding you back?" Song Yuan asked.
"That's not what I meant. I really don't want to lose you. I hope you can cheer up and move forward side by side with me." Yue Lian explained, "Actually, I never told you that I was born in a suburb of Liangzhou City.
I am a second-level small family. I have the Xuanshui Spiritual Root and I was once a genius in that family. However, during an operation to help the family resist bandits, I accidentally injured my main meridian. Although I can still practice, it requires more resources than others.
. So my family gave up on me, and I was even ostracized by the family. My father had no choice but to take me to Liangzhou. So can you understand my thoughts? As long as I can return to the family like a king, I can
Pay whatever it takes!”
"I can understand, but I can't accept it." Song Yuan shook his head and said, "You look like you are going to be possessed. In fact, we can encounter other opportunities. Trust me, we will do it step by step!"
"I can't wait! It's been more than ten years since I broke through from the eighth level to the ninth level. I'm really anxious. If there is hope for me to form a pill and return to my family like a king, I can't wait to sell my body to
Devil." Yue Lian shook his head and said, "Brother Yuan, if you really can't accept it, you can go back first. Anyway, I won't give up. I wish you can find your favorite partner!"
"Forget it!" Song Yuan let out a long sigh and said, "I'm willing to risk it all, and I also want to know what methods they used!"
Yue Lian's expression gradually relaxed, and she continued: "If our speculation is correct, the guilty Jiang You will definitely find his accomplices before leaving, and maybe we can find a new breakthrough point. But also because
The enemy's position is in the fog, so we should not tell outsiders about our progress if it is not necessary in the future."
Song Yuan nodded, but did not speak any more. He just stared in the direction of the medical center, wanting to see when Jiang You would come out.
However, they didn't wait long. Jiang You walked out of the hospital with a bag on his back. When he locked the door, he didn't forget to look around, and finally cast his eyes on the teahouse.
The two hurriedly retreated to the window sill, and Song Yuan asked, "Has he discovered us?"
"It shouldn't be." Yue Lian shook his head and said, "This place has exceeded the range of our spiritual consciousness, and he is only at the first level of Qi training. Even if his spiritual consciousness is taken away, it will be suppressed within a reasonable range."
What they didn't expect was that Jiang You locked the door and started cleaning the outside. He slowly worked his way to the backyard, and finally never appeared at the intersection again. You must know that this is the only way out of the town for the medical clinic, and Jiang You is not too worried.
