Chapter 1097 You are so bad!
At the other end of the tunnel is a granary in the city.
Today, this granary has been abandoned and turned into a temporary armory for the rebels. The warehouse is filled with various weapons and armor, and is heavily guarded.
When Yu Jiu brought Xiao Xixi out of the temporary armory, the rebels who were in charge of guarding the armory were all extremely surprised.
They were clearly guarding the place strictly and the doors and windows were tightly closed. Logically, not even a fly should be able to fly in. So how did these two people get in?
The rebels were about to capture these two people of unknown origin, and Yu Jiu took out the badge he carried with him.
He waved his badge in front of the group of people and asked lazily.
"Did you see it clearly?"
Yu Jiu holds a very high status in Tianmen, but not many people have seen his true appearance.
The rebels in front of them did not expect that the person coming was actually the Ninth Young Master. They immediately put down their weapons, knelt on one knee, and spoke in fear and trepidation.
"Your subordinate greets the Ninth Young Master. I didn't know it was the Ninth Young Master who came. I hope you can forgive me for any offense I caused you just now!"
Yu Jiu put away his badge: "Where is the sect leader?"
One of them answered: "The sect leader is currently living in the county government office."
Ever since the rebels killed the county magistrate's family, Zhenren Tianyan took over and lived in the county government office.
Yu Jiu took Xiao Xixi to the county government office.
Inside the county government office, Taoist Priest Tian Yan was drinking medicine.
The attendant came to report that Yu Jiu had returned and brought the imperial concubine with him.
Taoist Tianyan immediately put down the medicine bowl and said impatiently.
"Let them in!"
Just as the follower was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Taoist Tianyan.
"Wait a moment!"
The follower stopped and waited quietly for the master's instructions.
Master Tianyan had calmed down a little at this time.
He remembered that Yu Jiu took the imperial concubine away from Shengjing, and Yu Jiu could bring the imperial concubine to Youmen County in four days at most. However, the two of them arrived in Youmen County half a month later.
Where has Yu Jiu been in the past half month?
Zhenren Tianyan became suspicious and decided to act cautiously.
"Have someone check both Yu Jiu and the Imperial Concubine carefully."
The follower nodded: "I understand."
Yu Jiu took Xiao Xixi to the yard waiting to be summoned, but was taken to a small room instead.
The attendant said politely, "The Sect Master has ordered that all people who approach the Sect Master need to be checked. Ninth Master, Madam Imperial Concubine, please bear with me."
Yu Jiu was not surprised by this result.
Tian Yan Zhenren is a suspicious person by nature. He doesn't trust anyone around him. The only person in the world he can truly trust is himself.
Yu Jiu looked at the follower with a smile.
Only after he had made the follower's scalp tingle and sweat break out on his forehead did Yu Jiu stretch out his arms and speak in a sarcastic tone.
"I can't say I'm sorry, but it's not the first time I've encountered this kind of thing. Come on."
The attendant hurriedly sent someone forward to search Yu Jiu.
Xiao Xixi was taken behind a screen and searched by a maid.
After searching her body, a special doctor took Xiao Xixi's pulse and made sure that all her acupoints were blocked before he left with peace of mind.
After making sure that both people are fine, the inspection stage can be considered successfully passed.
Yu Jiu took Xiao Xixi to the room where Master Tian Yan was.
During this process, Yu Jiu quietly stuffed something into Xiao Xixi's hand.
Xiao Xixi's hands were tied behind her back. When her fingers touched the thing, she immediately hid it in her sleeves.
It was a delicate knife only the size of an index finger.
When they walked into the room where Master Tianyan was, a bitter smell of medicine immediately hit them.
Yu Jiu instantly put away his usual weird look and bowed to Master Tian Yan in a proper manner.
"Father."
Taoist Tianyan was originally lying on the couch, but was helped by the little boy to sit up.
His hair and beard were all white, and his face was covered with wrinkles. Because of his injuries, he looked even weaker and older than before.
"Xiao Jiu, you're finally back."
Yu Jiu: "There were pursuers all along the way. In order to avoid them, we had to take a detour. This took us a little longer. I hope father will forgive us."
Zhenren Tianyan didn't believe this explanation at all.
But he had no intention of getting to the bottom of it and turned to look at the woman standing next to him.
His eyes looked her over from head to toe, finally stopping on her eyes.
"Are you the legendary imperial concubine who is the only favorite in the harem?"
Xiao Xixi's body was trembling slightly, her face was pale, and she looked very frightened.
She stammered, "Who are you? What do you want to do to me?"
Taoist Tianyan smiled slightly, his tone was kind.
"Don't pretend. I know you are from the Xuanmen sect. You must know everything in your heart."
Xiao Xixi pursed her lips and said nothing.
Taoist Tian Yan said slowly.
"I know you are the Concubine Xiao who is rumored to have died.
You didn't actually die, you just changed your identity and appearance, and returned to the emperor.
Those rumors about the emperor being invulnerable and blessed by the gods are also due to your secret help, right?
By the way, the reason why the emperor was able to escape my life-changing technique was because of your interference, right?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head with red eyes: "I don't know what you are talking about, please let me go, I want to go back to the emperor."
Zhenren Tianyan stared at her eyes. The more he looked, the more he wanted her. His gaze became greedy involuntarily.
Since his life-changing technique has failed, he has to make up for it somewhere else.
Isn’t the third eye that the woman in front of him possesses the best compensation for him?
As long as he could possess the third eye, he could know the past and the future, and could see through other people's fortunes at a glance. Whether it was fortune-telling or making talismans and pills, his success rate could be maximized.
He can even use the powerful ability of the Sky Eye to turn the tide of the battle and turn defeat into victory!
Taoist Tianyan's smile became more kind and gentle.
"I have been preparing this life-changing technique for more than 20 years, but it was destroyed in your hands. You should at least give me some compensation, right? How about this, can you give me your eyes?"
Xiao Xixi subconsciously shrank back: "I really don't know what you are talking about, you must have misunderstood."
When Master Tianyan saw that she was still pretending at this time, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
"I don't like people acting in front of me. If you still don't tell the truth, I will have someone forcibly dig out your eyes."
Xiao Xixi burst into tears.
"Woo woo woo! I'm just a weak, helpless, and pitiful woman, and you actually want to dig out my eyes. You are so mean!"
Tianyan Zhenren: "..."
His expression changes rapidly, like colorful black.
Yu Jiu turned his face away silently, trying hard to tighten the corners of his mouth to prevent himself from laughing.
