LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 260 Clues
Xiao Jing looked at Fang Wuyan's carefully bandaged hand and sat back slumped in the chair. Mei Aoxue stood in front of him. Seeing that his face was not good, she did not dare to speak and turned around and went out to find Mr. Mei. The old owner of Mei Village is currently investigating with several elders from the Presbyterian Church that Dragon Heart Grass is a fake medicinal material. Divine Doctor Valley is a well-known and decent sect in the world. How could it be possible to auction a fake medicinal material? They all felt that there must be other hidden reasons.
A Songshan sect disciple hurried in.
"Old leader, it's not good! Gangling Mountain sent disciples to report that they were in the Valley of Divine Doctors and their family was brutally wiped out!"
"..." The ten elders were so shocked that they were speechless for a long time. The Valley of Divine Doctors is a big gang. Although the valley is specialized in medical skills, they also have masters in charge. How could they let people wipe out the whole family?
"When did this happen?"
The Great Elder finally came to his senses.
"At least three days ago!" the disciple said, "in the entire Valley of Miracle Doctors, no chickens or dogs were left alive. If it hadn't been for the disciples sent by Lingshan to rescue the doctor today, and smelled something wrong, and secretly went into the valley to check, this would have happened. I’m afraid no one knows about the annihilation of the family!”
"Quickly, go bring the disciples of the Lingshan Sect in, and let's go see the leader together!"
Xiao Jing was shocked when he learned that the people in the Divine Doctor Valley had been massacred, and immediately asked Leng Shuanghua and Fang Wuyan to take people to check the scene of the murder.
"Damn it!" Xiao Jing's injured hand hit the table hard, and blood suddenly started to leak out of the gauze wrapped in his injured hand. The reason why the Divine Doctor Valley was wiped out must be because they had the real Dragon Heart Grass! He never imagined that those people would go so far as to kill a sect in order to kill Yuan Chuyi.
He looked at Ling Zhen and said, "I will list all the killer organizations in the world!"
Ling Zhen also knew that the annihilation of the Divine Doctor Valley was a big deal. He and the ten elders of the Presbyterian Council did not dare to disobey and immediately listed all the killer organizations they knew about in the world.
Xiao Jing looked at the more than twenty killer organizations they listed on the paper, handed the paper to Luo Feihua, and took out a soldier talisman, "Go and mobilize a dragon and tiger guard and give all the leaders of these killer organizations to This king will be brought to the capital for trial, and anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!" Luo Feihua immediately took the order and left.
Xiao Jing didn't believe that after their massive arrests, he didn't believe that the killer organization hadn't found any of the people behind the scenes.
"According to Jianghu Order, there was a severe drought in the southwest last year. The Holy Spirit twice sent people to deliver relief food to the southwest for disaster relief. However, both times, the relief food was robbed and the relief food was missing. Anyone who can provide the whereabouts of the relief food will be rewarded with a thousand silver coins. two!"
Heroes from all walks of life who came to participate in the martial arts conference were gathered in the Juyi Hall of the martial arts alliance, waiting for the hero's banquet to start tonight. The banquet has not started yet, but I have received a reward from Jianghu. As soon as everyone heard that the silver reward was a thousand taels, the Juyi Hall suddenly felt like a pot was exploding.
"A reward of a thousand taels of silver, is it real or fake?"
There are many desperadoes in the world. In order to reward money, they will do whatever it takes to inquire about information and buy and sell information.
Sure enough, not long after the news came out, someone came to the meeting hall to meet Xiao Jing.
"I met Mr. Xiao in Xiatianyu. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, can you really get a thousand taels of silver reward for providing the whereabouts of those who were robbed for disaster relief last year?"
Xiao Jing looked at the middle-aged man with a thin figure and a thin face in front of him, and saw a cunning light shining in his slender eyes. He knew at first glance that this person was not on the right path.
He waved to Lou Xingyun, who immediately took out a thousand taels of silver notes from his arms and put them on the table.
"The banknotes are right here. If you can really provide the whereabouts of that batch of disaster relief food, as soon as I confirm that the news is true, they will be yours!" Xiao Jing said.
Tian Yu looked at the banknote, and the twinkling light in his eyes became even brighter. Immediately tell him the truth about what he knows.
It turns out that Tian Yu is a gentleman from Liang Dynasty who travels all over the country. In June last year, when there was a severe drought in the southwest, he went to the southwest to visit his adopted brother. He missed his place in Sutou because it was too late, so he rushed to a posthouse to stay, but the people in the posthouse wanted to stay there because he was not a member of the imperial court. People refused to let him stay, and he didn't want to sleep in the wilderness, so he sneaked into an empty room to rest. During Haishi, a large number of people escorting grain and grass moved in, and the noise was quite loud. However, most of them fell down after dinner. A few leaders still had some consciousness and wanted to resist, but soon He was silenced by a group of men in black who had been ambushing the post house for a long time.
"Who are those men in black? Where is the food and grass?" Xiao Jing asked.
"I don't know who the men in black are, but when they were distributing and transporting the grain, someone said that tomorrow's lunch must arrive at the Surabaya Ferry to board the ship in batches, otherwise Mr. Pei would not let them go. .”
"Is it really Surabaya Dutou and Mr. Pei?" Xiao Jing looked at Tian Yu and asked seriously.
"Master Xiao, since I'm here to see you, how can I dare to lie to you!" Tian Yu said with a smile.
Xiao Jing held his forehead, thought briefly, and then asked: "It didn't rain that night, but the official who went to investigate the current situation reported that there were only ruts entering the inn near the inn, and no ruts going out were found. They How was the grain transported out of the inn?"
"There's a secret passage!" Tian Yu looked at them and shouted disdainfully, "There is a small forest behind the inn. The secret passage is in the grove. Seeing how they came in and out, the secret passage should be It's not small. As for where it leads, I don't know. I didn't dare to follow it to see what happened. Anyway, those people transported the food and grass out of the inn through the secret passage that night. After they left, they carefully moved the food and grass out of the inn. The ground near the secret passage has been cleaned!"
Due to the dry weather, the ground was dry, and the soil in the grove was hardened. No matter how many people walked by, it would not leave too obvious traces, and those people also cleaned up very professionally to sweep away the traces. No wonder the previous Those who went to investigate the case found no trace of the food being transported.
They were able to escape through the secret passage, which must have been planned for a long time. They should have started digging the secret passage to prepare as soon as they knew that the imperial court was going to transport disaster relief food to the southwest.
"Very good!" Xiao Jing said, placing the eight hundred taels of silver notes in front of Tian Yu, "The remaining two hundred taels will be given to you tomorrow when I confirm that the news is true."
Tian Yu picked up the banknote and bowed to Xiao Jing, "Thank you, Mr. Xiao. I'm waiting for the good news about Mr. Xiao! However, I also ask Mr. Xiao to keep my secret and protect my personal safety!"
"Don't worry, you can stay in the alliance with peace of mind these days, and wait until you feel safe before leaving!" Xiao Jing looked at him, "But I hope you won't play any tricks on me!"
"Yes, yes! Don't worry, everything I said is true. You can send someone to investigate."
After Tian Yu left, Lou Xingyun went out without waiting for Xiao Jing's instructions. After a while, he came back and told Xiao Jing that everything was done. Xiao Jing nodded with satisfaction.
"Your Majesty, the dinner party at Juyi Hall has been arranged. Please come to the banquet! Heroes from all walks of life want to meet you and Leader Ning." Ling Zhen came and said.
Xiao Jing originally just wanted to let Ning Wuying go, but he thought that the people behind the scenes also had Jianghu forces. He wanted to fight them, and he might need the help of Jianghu forces. So he got up and went out, preparing to follow them to the Juyi Hall to meet heroes from all walks of life. But as a group of people walked out of the meeting hall into the courtyard, a hail of arrows fell from the sky, densely attacking Xiao Jing and others.
Lou Xingyun and Ning Wuying swept across with their swords, and the arrows fell to the ground one after another. Lou Xingyun looked up and saw rows of men in black holding long swords standing on the surrounding rooftops, shooting arrows at them. He let out a loud roar, and a group of personal guards who had been ambushing him immediately appeared, holding long swords and attacking the men in black. After a while, all the men in black were killed.
Xiao Jing knew that these assassins were all dead men and there was no point in leaving them alive. Therefore, of the nearly forty assassins, not a single one survived. Ling Zhen and the others were stunned. They didn't expect that this prince could be so ruthless and merciless. They were also surprised that there were so many men ambushed near their Wulin Alliance, but they were not aware of it.
"My lord, how are you? Are you injured?" Mei Aoxue ran over from the direction of Juyi Hall and asked anxiously in front of Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing glanced at her lightly, said it was okay and walked towards Juyi Hall.
When Mei Aoxue saw how cold he was, she had no choice but to follow him angrily.
Capital, Yuan family.
In the past few days, Yuan Chuyi had been coming to the Yuan family to check on the injury of the man Yuan Mochen rescued. The man was very weak due to excessive blood loss and had been unconscious for the past few days. Looking at the man, she thought to herself, if she could match his blood type for a blood transfusion in future generations, he would definitely wake up long ago. But now, I can only feed him a little ginseng soup every day to let him slowly recover his energy and blood.
That night, after having dinner with Shishiliu, Yuan Mochen and the others, she came to check the man's pulse. Seeing that his pulse was becoming increasingly stable, she knew that his condition was improving and he should be able to wake up tomorrow.
As she was thinking, she saw the man's fingers on the bed moving and his eyes slowly opening.
"Sister, he's awake!" Shiliu saw it from the side and shouted happily.
Yuan Chuyi looked at the people on the bed, and sure enough, he had opened his eyes and was looking around, and finally focused on them.
"Excuse me, where is this place?" the injured person asked in a weak voice.
"You finally woke up! Don't worry, my surname is Yuan, this is my home, it's safe." Yuan Chuyi said.
The man looked around again and looked out the window, "Is this the capital city?"
Yuanchu nodded, "Yes, my brother met you in the suburbs a few days ago and brought you back."
"How many days! How many days have I been unconscious?" The man was very surprised. He sat up in excitement, but the pain on his body made him fall back on the bed. He screamed out in pain. He looked at Yuan Chuyi , with a sad look on his face, "I, I have to find someone!"
"Sir, he is seriously injured and his breath is still weak. Please drink something first before reasoning. Don't rush this moment!"
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, someone brought ginseng soup and millet porridge to serve him.
The man looked at the ginseng soup with surprise in his eyes. He thought to himself that this Yuan family should be a well-off family, otherwise such a precious ginseng soup would be given to a stranger to drink.
"I wonder what your name is, sir? Where are you from? Why are you so seriously injured?"
After he was full and energetic, Yuan Chuyi asked him questions.
"My surname is Shangguan, and my given name is Nanxing. I come from... the Martial Arts Alliance..."
"Martial Arts Alliance!" Yuan Chuyi was surprised, interrupted him, and looked at him, "You are so seriously injured. Could it be that something happened to the Martial Arts Alliance?" she asked eagerly. Xiao Jing had set out for the Martial Arts League before. If something happened to the Martial Arts League, I wonder if he would be involved.
Shangguan Nanxing looked at her in surprise, "Madam, do you know about the Wulin Alliance?"
Yuan Chuyi nodded slightly, "I heard it from someone. In the past two days, someone from our family went to the Wulin League to participate in some kind of auction! Mr. Shangguan, may I ask what happened to the Wulin League?"
Shangguan Nanxing suddenly looked sad, "I..." He looked at Yuan Chuyi and hesitated to speak.
"Sir, there seems to be something that is difficult to explain!" On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he saw that Shangguan Nanxing seemed to be in a dilemma. "Sir, he just said that he wanted to go out to find someone. I don't know who he is looking for. You might as well say it, maybe I can help!"
Shangguan Nanxing looked at Yuan Chuyi. Although the woman in front of him had a kind face and extremely beautiful appearance, he also understood the reason why she didn't know her face.
"Sir is injured. He must have encountered something serious. I wonder if Dali Temple can help you?" Yuanchu didn't say anything when she saw him, so she had to put forward her own ideas. Xiao Jing was not at home, so she did not dare to announce her name as Prince An's Mansion rashly. After all, the other party was also a person of unknown origin. She did not want to bring trouble to Prince An's Mansion. If Nangong Yu could help, everything would be fine.
"I wonder who the lady knows in Dali Temple?" Shangguan Nanxing also didn't know the identity of the woman in front of him, but she could tell that she asked people from Dali Temple for help. She must be a relative of the imperial official, but she didn't know who she was. relatives.
"Master of Dali Temple, may I?"
Shangguan Nanxing thought for a moment and nodded, "I'd like to introduce you to you, Madam!"
"It doesn't matter, he's staying as a guest now!"
Yuan Mochen suddenly came back after rescuing a dying stranger. Yuan Chuyi was also afraid of causing trouble. Although people from the government came to see this person and said that he was not a major criminal, she still sent Xuan Yue just in case. Go and tell Nangong Yu about this.
Nangong Yu was also very concerned about this matter. He came over every day to ask about the situation. Knowing that he was having dinner here on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty these days, he also wandered over during the meal and had a delicious meal. After dinner, I am still drinking wine with Yuan Mochen outside. As soon as Jiang Xue heard that the gentleman was awake, he and Yuan Mochen put down their glasses and rushed over.
"Sister-in-law!" Nangong Yu called.
In the early Yuan Dynasty, he was introduced to Shangguan Nanxing, "Mr. Shangguan, this is Prince Yu of Dali Temple! Whoever you want to find, he can help you find him!"
Nangong Yu showed his official badge. Shangguan Nanxing looked at Nangong Yu, and for a moment he didn't know who King Yu was.
"Mr. Shangguan, King Yu is the younger brother of the Holy Emperor. If you have any questions, you can feel free to tell him." Yuan Mochen said from the side.
Shangguan Nanxing thought for a moment and finally said: "I want to see Prince An!"
"Oh!" Everyone in the room was surprised, "I wonder what Mr. Shangguan wants from Prince An?" Nangong Yu asked.
Shangguan Nanxing sighed heavily, "To be honest, I am the eldest disciple of the Divine Doctor Valley. I was ordered by my master to bring a dragon heart grass to the martial arts conference for auction. Unexpectedly, my two junior brothers and I just arrived at the martial arts league. I was kidnapped when I wanted to put the Dragon Heart Grass in Zhenke Pavilion. My two junior brothers were brutally killed by them, and I had to narrowly escape before I could escape."
"What happened?" Yuan Chuyi asked eagerly, "Is this what happened to you related to the Dragon Heart Grass?"
