Hou's daughter, she is cold and sassy

Chapter 198 Honorary Elder

Rong Zhaohua fastened all the buttons on her collar, and the tenderness in her eyes was flooding: "In my eyes, you are just a baby who won't grow up, and you need me to take care of you."

Yun Qingxiu couldn't help but blushed when she heard this, and said angrily, "I'm really not ashamed."

Suddenly, Jinghong broke into the door and shouted: "Miss! That honorary elder is back, and he said he wanted to see you in front of the gate of Wuyuan!"

The honorary elder of Lingyi Valley, Shen Zhizhou.He is young, only in his twenties, and his background is a mystery, but he has heard that his medical skills are superb.But because he often doesn't see people and doesn't ask about things in the valley, he only has a false title.

This sudden return, I don't know if it is also because of the owner of the valley.

Yun Qingxiu's sharp cold eyes were full of inquiry, but his expression was as cold as usual, and he walked to the main entrance with delicate and elegant steps.

Then I saw a handsome man in dark blue Chinese clothes and black sable fur.But in winter, she was holding a white folding fan with purple tassels. From the edges and corners that glowed with the light of a cold weapon, she knew that it must be an improved weapon.

He actually had a pair of willow-leaf eyebrows, but those dark brown eyes were hazy with an unpredictable magnificence.

Yun Qingxiu stepped forward and said: "The elder came, but for the sake of the teacher?"

Shen Zhizhou smiled indifferently, but didn't pay attention: "Yes, and no. In general, I just came to the appointment on time. Besides, I'm just a name, so it's good to call me 'Mr. Shen'. You just called me called old."

Hearing this, Yun Qingxiu probably had an idea in her mind.The little old man used to be able to do some strange tricks, maybe he had figured out something vaguely, and kept a back hand.

Yun Qingxiu nodded slightly: "Then can you invite Mr. Shen to go and investigate the place where the teacher lives?"

"I'm so happy." After that, he didn't wait for her, but went to the owner's residence first.

Rong Zhaohua was on the side, looking at Shen Zhizhou's distant figure, his eyes gradually dimmed.He murmured, "Is your surname Shen?"

The two walked into that room, and the corpse in the dormitory had disappeared, but the remaining bloodstains were still there, mottled scarlet on the white walls and the bed.

Shen Zhizhou stared at the dark red blood stain and asked, "This is it?"

Yun Qingxiu explained unhurriedly: "Someone pretended to be Master, and I dealt with it."

When Shen Zhizhou heard the words, he stopped asking too much, but searched around the house, and finally saw some crimson broken flower petals at the bottom of the bed.

He squeezed some of it out, brought it close to the tip of his nose, sniffed it lightly, and said, "This is Zhu Dixiang."

"What?" Yun Qingxiu had never heard of this name at all, and was a little confused for a while.

But Shen Zhizhou did not explain too much, and continued: "This incense has no smell when applied to the body, but it will emit a strange aroma when it encounters an open flame. Your master asked us to use this incense. Find him."

Yun Qingxiu nodded slightly, then went to find a bunch of torches, and moved slowly along the bed.In fact, she knew that Master had a secret early in the morning, because she had secretly flipped through the note in Master's book, the name of the medicinal material on it was something she had never seen before, and she could not find it even after reading countless ancient books on medical techniques.

The more spices in the place, the more intense the smell. The two searched for the fragrance all the way, and when they reached a certain place in a house, there was no such strange smell anymore, and the two stopped.

Looking at each other, Shen Zhizhou squatted down slowly, and slowly pushed the edge of the fan against the ground until there was a small "click".

There was a cold light reflected in his dark brown eyes, and the next moment he stabbed the sharp fan edge towards the tiny gap.After the strong aftermath, there was a "click" sound, and Shen Zhizhou shoveled it up with a fan, and a wooden board flew a few feet away.

Under the wooden board, a secret passage appeared in front of him instantly.

Shen Zhizhou walked down the steps first, without turning his head, he said: "Girl, follow me."

"En." Yun Qingxiu responded softly, following his steps closely.

Still holding the torch in her hand, as she gradually entered the secret room, the aroma became more intense.Yun Qingxiu looked around, scrolls of medical books were neatly arranged together, the ink was fragrant.

This should be a place for collecting books.

"Girl, put out the fire." Shen Zhizhou stopped suddenly.

Yun Qingxiu chopped off the head of the torch, and the remaining firewood burned out in a short time, without any light.But I could vaguely hear someone's conversation in the distance gradually approaching.

Shen Zhizhou pulled Yun Qingxiu's sleeve robe, and the two left and right leaned against a stone wall in front of them.

Her eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, Yun Qingxiu looked at the outline of the wall, and her slender fingers stroked the irregular shape at the corner of the wall.Almost instantly, she understood everything.

She lowered her voice and said: "Mr. Shen, look at this outline, it was broken by life. It means that this was the end of the secret room, and it was also the place where Master often came here to store and retrieve books.

But someone must have known the location of Master's secret room and dug a passage to connect with it.When the master came to store the books as in the past, he took the opportunity to arrest him without being noticed by anyone. "

Shen Zhizhou looked at the cold and arrogant woman who was young but had an unimaginable gap beyond her peers, and was a little surprised: "She is a shrewd girl."

The sound of footsteps in the distance almost reached his ears, and Shen Zhizhou stopped talking.

"There is indeed a noise here"

"I said, you must have misheard. This is a dead end, and the entrance above has been sealed. How could someone speak?"

The patrollers happened to pass by the irregularly shaped doorway made of bricks, but they didn't see the two people hiding aside.

They walked to the opposite end and continued their conversation. "I said you heard it wrong, there is no one here at all."

"Let's go then, let's go back."

The moment before the two were about to turn their heads back, the poisoned dart in Yun Qingxiu's hands pierced the necks of the two of them, and the patrolling people were instantly killed.

"You can go." Yun Qingxiu's phoenix eyes dimmed, and she made a gesture to continue to explore, but was pulled back by Shen Zhizhou.

Shen Zhizhou's indifferent voice sounded from behind: "Do you want to save someone?"

Yun Qingxiu turned around, her tone was as clear as an iceberg after it melted, and her tone was firm and resolute: "Is it because I am not obvious enough? Master is in their hands, the longer the time is in their hands, the greater the risk, and the torture will continue.

Now that the place where the people are located has been found, what if they killed all the people here today?You are afraid, I am not afraid, just take care of me. "

After hearing this, Shen Zhizhou smiled and said: "Afraid? Girl, you are too naive. Not to mention whether you can save people in a short time, you can't finish killing so many people, but you don't know How long is this passage and where does it lead.

At that time, if it is quickly passed to that person's ears, the enemy is dark and we are clear, have you thought about the consequences? "
