Chapter 172
Shen Jiao herself is quite hypocritical, but that doesn't stop her from hating people like Wei Qian.
I have never done anything good in my life, but now that death is approaching, I am showing mercy.
Who knows if he is truly kind-hearted, or if he is hoping that others will relent and let him go?
Anyway, Shen Jiao always does the latter when doing this kind of thing.
With a gulp.
The lifeless man fell into the river, sinking heavily and disappearing in an instant. The little blood in the water was also washed away in an instant.
There was only a boat, a person, and a bunch of fish and shrimps left on the water.
In the blink of an eye, this person was gone.
Shen Jiao entered the water.
Two months later, she appeared in a medicine shop outside Huisheng Valley.
She had been waiting for several hours, but the owner of the pharmacy still refused to see her.
"Sister, you should leave. You know the rules of the valley. Once you leave, we will have nothing to do with each other."
"What if I re-enter the valley?"
"The Valley Master said that no one is allowed to take you in, let alone..." The man who spoke took out a piece of paper from the counter and slowly pushed it over.
Shen Jiao knew what it was without even looking.
The Five Guests of Huangmei have already spread her portrait.
"It's okay to do business! At least give me a new face!"
"The Valley Master said..."
"Stop talking," Shen Jiao said desperately, "Why doesn't he just kill me?"
"It's not that he hates you, he just doesn't want to bother with you. Besides, it's such a shameful thing for a drug slave to betray his master. It's already very good that he didn't help to arrest you. This thing was originally going to be distributed throughout the streets and alleys, but now only people in the valley know about it. Just be content."
The annoying junior brother is always the same annoying.
Shen Jiao pleaded weakly:
"Then it's okay for me to sleep here for one night, right?"
"This isn't an inn. How about you grab a handful of red dates and eat them on the way?"
"Really?" Shen Jiao was about to reach out.
But he said, "Twenty coins, thank you."
Shen Jiao slowly retracted her hand and said with a smile, "Keep it for yourself. Eat more and eat as much as you can. I'll choke you to death!"
"Don't worry, just a reminder, the people from the Demon Cult are looking for you." His voice came slowly over.
Shen Jiao really didn't want to pay any attention to this person, so she stormed out the door angrily. He hit her on the head with a knife. Fortunately, she dodged quickly and crawled back to the shop, grumbling.
"Are you looking for me? You've set an ambush to kill me!"
"It's your fault for not paying attention." He said coldly.
It seems that there is no affection between fellow disciples.
Shen Jiao couldn't bear it any longer and rushed straight to the backyard.
"What are you doing?"
"I can't tell you that! I'll go talk to Master!"
"Master doesn't want to see you!"
Shen Jiao ran even faster after hearing this: "But I want to see him, if you have the guts, just kill me!"
Wen Yan is not Zhou Boyan, so he won't attack Shen Jiao, but Shen Jiao can forget about finding someone to save her.
Shen Jiao, who broke into his master's room, only saw the spirit tablet.
Wen Yan, who had chased after her, leaned against the door, folded his arms and looked at her: "Don't cry for a while?"
Shen Jiao said bluntly: "I don't have the time..."
She paused, then turned around and asked, "Is he really dead?"
"Why don't you go and dig it out? Master won't blame you anyway."
This is true...
After hiding from the wind and rain all the way, Shen Jiao finally came back to ask for help and was obviously confused: "What should I do?"
Wen Yan smiled and spat out one word: "Get lost."
"Just get out," Shen Jiao asked before moving his master's wardrobe away and crawling into the secret passage. "When did he die?"
"…shortly after you left."
"How did he die?"
"Life will eventually end."
"He has nothing to say, nothing to leave for me?"
As the saying goes, discord between children and grandchildren is mostly due to the immorality of the elders.
Shen Jiao had a bad relationship with them because her master was extremely partial to her. Although she didn't think so, she didn't believe what he said and didn't leave her anything.
"Why do you think they didn't come in? Is it because they broke something and can't afford to pay for it? Or is it because Junior Sister beat them up, so they don't dare to come in?"
From a business perspective, Huisheng Valley is not Tongcai Villa. They don't care whether the Demon Cult causes trouble on their territory. If things are smashed, they will pay compensation, and if people die, they will pay even more.
Shen Jiao understood what he said: "Master asked you to take care of me, right? You did a very poor job."
She commented fearlessly, but still said, "Thank Zhou Cui'e for me. I forgive her for stealing my elixir when she was nine years old."
"I should have forgiven you when you tricked her with poison." Wen Yan kicked her into the secret passage without any hesitation.
Shen Jiao looked at the blocked entrance and scratched his head awkwardly: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten."
But she was still young at that time.
As for the child, it is inevitable that he would not be gentle when attacking her. Besides, if she didn't steal, the poison would not have entered her mouth.
Shen Jiao wanted to speak up for himself to some extent.
But if the master is not here, no one will listen...
If Shen Jiao had known he was dead, she would not have come.
Hugging the torn bundle, Shen Jiao had the most comfortable sleep he had had in two years in the secret passage.
Then he held a lighter in his mouth and looked at the map.
She didn't have the courage to go to Jiangnan Road, and Lingwai Road, Hedong Road, and Hezhong Road were equally unsafe. Where else could she go?
Or... go south and find a nest in the mountains where no one can find her.
But that would be so painful, and there are so many snakes, insects, rats and ants...
Going north?
No, if you can’t avoid the long river, you can’t avoid the Hezhong Road and Hedong Road.
Go west?
It’s also a good idea to go to Jiaoguo from Hexi Road.
Eastbound?
Go all the way to Yama Palace and fall into the trap?
Shen Jiao took out a copper coin with a chip on it, threw it upwards and then reached out to catch it.
Go south to Nanmao!
But before that...
Shen Jiao's stomach growled a few times, and she still had to find something to eat. Shen Jiao raised her hand and moved the wardrobe away again.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, they swept away all the offerings to the master, even the tablets and incense sticks.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find the master's money after searching everywhere. It's likely that he had already divided it up.
Shen Jiao was a little sad. No one thought of her when such a good thing happened. Anyone would be sad.
Moreover, she was such a kind person. Even though she knew where Xue Shun hid his money, she didn't have the heart to take it all. She only took a handful of loose change, which she had spent in the past few days.
Now all I have left are a few copper coins, which I picked up from dead people.
"I need to find someone to give me a ride."
Shen Jiao now regrets not having enough people when he needs them.
After thinking for a long time, I realized that no one had a good relationship with her.
But it doesn't matter. When she needs someone, she will go and find one. If she can't find one, she can blackmail them.
It was already the afternoon of the second day when she crawled out of the secret passage.
The woods were cool, and the breeze made her shiver, reminding her of the day two months ago.
She jumped into the water and went ashore quietly.
He shivered when the wind blew, and before he had run far he felt a chill all over his body, followed by a sharp pain.
She then realized that she was nailed to a tree with two feathers stuck in her shoulders...
