(One Hundred and Four)
"Xiao Jing, come and eat."
Madam Xiong happily pushed Situ Jing's favorite dish in front of her.
Situ Jing looked at him, hesitated for a moment, made up her mind, and said, "Dad... I want to leave the Shenshui Palace."
"What are you going to do?" Madam Xiong didn't think much about it. The distant mountains were lush with green leaves and the fragrance of flowers was everywhere. He smiled and said, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Situ Jing said, "I want to find Wu Du - it is said that as long as you give him money, he can do anything."
Madam Xiong: "...Huh"
He already knew that Wu Du was Senior Brother Xiao Qingzhou, and had heard about the affairs of the Salted Fish Sect, and didn't want to have anything to do with anyone from the Salted Fish Sect.
His daughter's words shocked him: "Xiao Jing... do you want to kill someone?"
Situ Jing: "It would be best if we can kill them... but my mother might be unhappy."
She showed a melancholy look.
Madam Xiong found that she immediately understood what she meant. Situ
Jing said again: "They are both very troublesome, Dad, don't you want to drive them away?"
Madam Xiong would rather he and Xiao Jing leave the Shenshui Palace together, which is better than watching Yin Ji and Shi Guanyin fighting and getting entangled.
But Situ Jing's expression was very serious, and Madam Xiong didn't want to pour cold water on her, so she hesitated to speak.
(105)
Situ Jing went to find her mother, but didn't say that she was going to find Wudu, but just said that she wanted to go out for fun.
Last year, Jellyfish Yin Ji found out that Situ Jing had identified her as the murderer of her mother. Even if the misunderstanding was resolved, she still felt that she owed Situ Jing a lot.
Now that Situ Jing took the initiative to do something, Jellyfish Yin Ji would certainly not refuse her.
Jellyfish Yin Ji planned to arrange for her disciples to go with Situ Jing, but Situ Jing said that she wanted to go out alone to roam the world - Jellyfish Yin Ji could not accept such a reason. As a parent, she was most worried about the safety of her children, but Situ Jing's eyes were full of pity.
Jellyfish Yin Ji had no choice but to agree .
Privately, she found Xiong Niangzi, hoping that he could secretly follow her daughter.
Xiong Niangzi was entangled. Of course, he was willing to protect his daughter's safety, but Jellyfish Yin Ji did not know her daughter's purpose, and he could not say it out loud, so he was naturally entangled.
Seeing that he was slow to respond, Jellyfish Yin Ji looked at him in confusion. Madam Xiong gritted her teeth and agreed.
No matter what, Xiao Jing's wish is the most important.
Madam Xiong thought.
"You will come back, right?" Jellyfish Yin Ji said.
Madam Xiong was silent for a moment and said, "Yin Ji, I stayed because of Xiao Jing."
Jellyfish Yin Ji's expression was slightly cold: "Don't forget, the business between Xiao Qingzhou and I - you are my person now, no matter where you escape to, I will definitely catch you back."
Madam Xiong lowered her head slightly, avoiding Jellyfish Yin Ji's gaze.
(One hundred and six)
Shi Guanyin heard that Situ Jing was going to travel alone, and Jellyfish Yin Ji told her that Madam Xiong would protect Situ Jing in secret.
Lady Xiong was not happy staying in the Shenshui Palace. Jellyfish Yinji did not intend to let him leave, but she could not bear to see him unhappy.
——What a harmonious family.
Shi Guanyin felt that she was redundant. She asked Jellyfish Yinji angrily, "You have a man and a daughter, why do you keep staring at me?"
Jellyfish Yinji said bitterly, "I can't let you go, nor can I let him go."
Annoying!
Shi Guanyin was annoyed to death, but he could not do anything about Jellyfish Yinji. The two were not equal in strength, and Jellyfish Yinji made it clear that she did not want to let her go.
She was like a painting, a vase, and an object for viewing.
Jellyfish Yinji was not like Shi Guanyin's servants who obeyed her every word. The emotions were similar, but the choices were different.
Is she going to stay here forever?
Shi Guanyin regretted that she had met Shuiyun Yinji in the past, and even more regretted that she chose to come to Shenshui Palace when she entered the Central Plains. If they had not met again, there would not have been so many troubles.
(107)
Situ Jing packed her luggage and left Shenshui Palace in a dignified manner.
The purpose was very clear, to find Wudu and ask him for a favor.
But there was a very serious problem in front of her - how to find Wudu.
Now the Salted Fish Sect is famous, and the stories related to them are circulating in the world, but no one knows where the Salted Fish Sect is.
This is a very serious problem.
(108)
The Prince of Taiping, the Ninth Prince, is absolutely lost.
He had no shortage of subordinates, and he brought a few very useful men with him when he left Bian Jing. However, for a road-chi, getting lost would happen accidentally.
The Ninth Young Master was a martial arts expert and silent, so when he got lost, no one realized that he had disappeared.
At this moment, Gong Jiu was waiting to be found.
Opposite him was the disguised Xiong Niangzi, who was handsome and looked like a young man from a respectable family, but she was always paying attention to the boy at the other table.
Gong Jiu looked at him for a while, then glanced at the "boy" - a boy dressed as a man.
(One hundred and nine)
The people in the teahouse were discussing salted fish pie, and Situ Jing joined in and asked a question.
"Where is the Salted Fish Pie?"
"How would we know?" someone answered, "They are elusive and hide very deep."
"I think it's better to go to the Evil Valley or the Ghost Valley and wait - at the very least, go to the South China Sea and wait. You will always run into someone from the Salted Fish Pie. If you are brave, you can just ask them directly! Hahahahaha."
Situ Jing was silent and pondered.
She was seriously considering the feasibility of this suggestion. Even if the other party was joking, it made sense.
The urgency of wanting to drive Shi Guanyin and her son out of the Shenshui Palace made Situ Jing reject this option. She continued to listen attentively to the conversations of others, hoping to get some useful information from them.
"I heard that Liushenmen - the cold-blooded head of police - went to the Salted Fish Sect in winter -"
"After all, the Salted Fish Sect has caused so many troubles, and Liushenmen can't just ignore it... But it's already spring, and there is still peace between Liushenmen and the Salted Fish Sect... Does it prove that they have some kind of cooperation or agreement?"
"Who knows, but in general, Liushenmen should be very confident in the Salted Fish Sect."
This proves that the Salted Fish Sect is different from organizations such as Youling Mountain Villa and Wuyamen.
Situ Jing seriously considered the possibility of asking the Six Gates about the location of the Salted Fish Sect.
——Basically impossible.
Although Wu Du was paid to do the job, he was known as a killer. Situ Jing really wanted to get rid of Shi Guanyin and Wuhua. If he asked Leng Xue, it would be like walking into a trap.
"Little brother, what do you want to do by finding the people from the Salted Fish Sect?" Someone saw that Situ Jing was very concerned about the Salted Fish Sect.
"I'm curious about what kind of people they are." Situ Jing didn't tell the truth. "I know people who have been helped by them, but I haven't met them myself."
But what she said was not a lie. Sending her father, who could only see her once every five years, to her indirectly allowed her to meet her parents - wasn't that helping her?
Situ Jing did have some gratitude towards Xiao Qingzhou, but there was nothing more.
Because Xiao Qingzhou also brought two very troublesome people, Situ Jing often felt that it was because Xiao Qingzhou was too lazy to care about the mother and son of Shi Guanyin that he was able to make a deal with the Lord of the Yin Palace - her mother.
So Situ Jing always felt it was a pity.
(110)
Madam Xiong heard her daughter's words clearly. After realizing what Situ Jing meant, his expression could not help but twist slightly.
He did not want to see Xiao Qingzhou again.
Xiao Qingzhou was a rare beauty, but Madam Xiong would never forget the cold look he showed in the dim night.
Recalling that look, Madam Xiong could not help but pick up the teacup beside her, suppressing her surprise and calming her heart that kept beating when she thought of Xiao Qingzhou.
——This was definitely not a look that she admired Xiao Qingzhou. Madam Xiong was very sure that she would rather admit that she was afraid of Xiao Qingzhou.
(111)
The young man opposite was shaking with his hands, and when he picked up the teacup, some of the tea even spilled out, spreading dark water stains on the table.
Gong Jiu looked at him silently.
After hearing about the Salted Fish Pie, this man's emotions were quite exposed - he was both disgusted and afraid of the people from the Salted Fish Pie.
Then, Gong Jiu and the young man made eye contact.
(112)
Situ Jing was still listening to the conversations of the people in the teahouse, but they were still talking about the same few sentences.
She couldn't help but reveal a look of disappointment on her face.
Madam Xiong was relieved.
Although Xiao Jing's wish could not be realized, it was naturally great that she didn't have to meet the people from the Salted Fish Pie.
He put down the teacup, and at the same time noticed the young man opposite with a cold temperament, and Madam Xiong looked at him.
When he sat down, he knew that this man was extraordinary, and there was something unusual
about him. But the other party kept staring at her, so Madam Xiong had to pay attention to him.
So Madam Xiong smiled and said, "Are you also curious about the salted fish pie?"
The young man in white didn't say anything, but showed an ambiguous smile.
Madam Xiong's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly felt uneasy for some reason.
He suppressed the subtle emotions that arose in his heart, laughed awkwardly a few times, and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jing.
At this time, Situ Jing had realized that he could not get any useful information, so he stood up, paid the money, and planned to leave. On the way, he passed by Madam Xiong's table.
Lady Xiong stared at the young man in white in front of her, wanting to say something, but before he could open his mouth, a man walked into the teahouse and stopped beside the young man in white. His silence revealed a sense of hostility, and he looked very loyal.
Behind him, outside the teahouse, there were several people with similar temperaments.
(One hundred and thirteen)
The young man disappeared again.
The loyal subordinates were looking for their omnipotent but always lost ninth young master.
There was a tacit understanding between them that did not require words. If the ninth young master got lost, he would definitely find a way to leave clues. Even if there were no clues, he could ask passers-by.
When getting lost in such a relatively prosperous town, the ninth young master would mostly stay in a place where he could rest - a restaurant, teahouse, or tea stall.
This time they easily found the ninth young master in a teahouse. From a distance, his white clothes were very conspicuous.
They immediately went forward to greet the Ninth Young Master.
Before the leading subordinate could open his mouth to greet them, the Ninth Young Master ordered, "Take these two away."
The Ninth Young Master was referring to a young man sitting opposite him and a "young man" passing behind the young man.
The young master's words were absolute. The Ninth Young Master stood up to leave. Without saying a word, the loyal subordinates immediately stepped forward and kidnapped the two people who looked puzzled and seemed to have no idea why.
"You -"
Without waiting for anyone to question them, they blocked the two people's mouths, took them with them, and followed the Ninth Young Master.
Loyal subordinates are more reliable than loyal dogs, and can satisfy their masters more.
(One hundred and fourteen)
Situ Jing was very confused.
She knew that it was not easy to get along in the underworld, but how could she be kidnapped so soon after she came out?
The young man who was kidnapped with her was taciturn. The two of them were locked in a room together. The wind was howling outside, and the room was silent.
They were thrown into the room for a while, and before they had time to talk, the young man in white who had ordered them to be kidnapped pushed the door open.
"I know where the Salted Fish Sect is." The young man in white said straight to the point, "Tell me your relationship with the Salted Fish Sect."
Situ Jing was very surprised, but immediately felt hesitant. In the underworld, you can't trust anyone easily.
Especially a guy like this who lets his men kidnap people without saying a word.
Situ Jing's eyes were very alert, and she was wondering who this person could be.
The young man in white looked at her coldly, and then looked at the taciturn young man on the other side.
Situ Jing realized belatedly that he was asking about "you guys".
In other words, the young man was also related to the Salted Fish Pie.
(One hundred and fifteen)
Madam Xiong was very upset.
He was just glad that he didn't have to deal with the Salted Fish Pie, but then a strange guy popped up who knew where the Salted Fish Pie was.
Madam Xiong glanced at Situ Jing. Her daughter was looking at her seriously, her eyes flickering, with a bit of surprise - she was probably guessing his identity.
He looked at the young man in white again, and the other party didn't say a word, with an indifferent expression.
Madam Xiong said, "I am her father, and I have nothing to do with the Salted Fish Sect."
The White-clothed Young Master did not believe it: "You are most closely connected with the Salted Fish Sect, and she does not know the people of the Salted Fish Sect at all."
Madam Xiong's eyelids jumped.
Situ Jing said loudly, "I want to find Wu Du and ask him to help me do something!"
"What is it?"
"Get rid of the people who stand between my parents and her son."
Situ Jing glanced at Madam Xiong and said so.
"..."
The White-clothed Young Master did not seem to be able to accept this reason. He remained silent, his eyes were calm.
But Situ Jing was not afraid, because she was telling the truth.
Madam Xiong bowed her head in grief.
If the White-clothed Young Master in front of him knew about the deeds related to the Salted Fish Sect, he might have guessed his identity.
(116)
Gong Jiu decided to bring Madam Xiong and his daughter with him.
——Just as Madam Xiong guessed, Gong Jiu combined the known information and analyzed his identity.
The fact that Jellyfish Yin Ji and Madam Xiong had such a big daughter was not shocking compared to what the head disciple of the Salted Fish Sect did.
There was no special reason to bring this father and daughter along - as a little meeting gift and a client who came to the door, Wu Du would definitely be happy.
(One hundred and seventeen)
Situ Jing and Madam Xiong were no longer tied up, but they were not free either. The young man in white wanted to take them to the Salted Fish Sect.
In addition to being happy, Situ Jing couldn't help but doubt whether what the other party said was true or false.
"Dad, why did he take us there?" Situ Jing was puzzled. "What use are we?" Madam Xiong hesitated.
Sometimes, people are not useful because they have it, but because others think they have it.
"Xiao Jing... no matter how much you think, you can't do anything. Why don't you see what the young master is planning?" Madam Xiong said, "He is willing to give us a ride, which saves us a lot of effort." Situ
Jing still frowned.
Madam Xiong diverted her attention: "Xiao Jing, your disguise still makes people see something wrong. The young master has always known that you are a girl - I will teach you some more skills."
"Okay!"
Situ Jing's attention was diverted, and she happily agreed.
(One hundred and eighteen)
"What are you doing?"
Yu Luocha asked.
He saw Bu Zao walking down the mountain early in the morning, and followed Bu Zao all the way. He saw Bu Zao beating drums and drums at the foot of the mountain, easily setting up some complicated traps.
Yu Luosha didn't hold back on his questions, and asked directly.
Bu Zao clapped his hands, looked at him happily, with a bright smile and eyes full of the morning sun: "To welcome some people who have come from afar."
"A guest"
"No."
Bu Zao tilted his head slightly, gave a negative answer, and at the same time showed Yu Luosha a look that said "Do you know what you are asking?"
Yu Luocha thought so too. If he was a guest, why would he set up a mechanism?
But the leader thought about it again and said quietly:
"Even if he was a guest, you would set up a mechanism."
The head of the sect applauded and praised: "Yes!"
Yu Luocha: "..."
He felt that he was already a jerk, but there are people in the world who are more jerk than jerk.
