Chapter 637 Junior Brother
Taoist Tianyi: "Yes, it's pitiful. His disciple has a mental problem and is always crazy. His legs and feet don't seem to be very agile. In order to avoid disturbing others, Kong Chan usually locks the door when he is not around to prevent his disciple from running around."
As he spoke, he took out the spare key and opened the door easily.
Xiao Xixi followed him into the house.
In the main room there are portraits of the Three Pure Ones, as well as an incense table, incense burners and candles, and a cushion on the floor.
The room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.
Xiao Xixi went to push the side door next to her, but found that it was locked.
Taoist Tianyi was very surprised: "I remember this door was not locked."
Since this guy didn't have a lock originally, it means that the lock on the door was added by Kong Chan later.
Xiao Xixi asked: "Can you pick a lock?"
Taoist Tianyi laughed, "You are such a joke. I am a proper Taoist priest. How could I sneak into a house and pick the lock?"
Xiao Xixi went around to push the window, only to find that it was also closed and bolted from the inside, so it couldn't be opened.
The doors and windows are locked. What treasure is hidden in this room?
Xiao Xixi was really curious.
She ignored the Tianyi Taoist's obstruction and jumped onto the roof.
Lift up two pieces of green tiles and look down through the hole.
I saw a handsome young man lying on the bed in the room. He was wearing a blue-gray Taoist robe, his face was pale, his eyes were closed, and his feet were chained.
As soon as Xiao Xixi saw the young man, her expression changed immediately.
This is actually Junior Brother Chu Jian!
How come he is here?
What did Kong Chan do to him?
Thinking about what Taoist Tianyi had just said, she felt terrified and her back went cold.
Xiao Xixi lay on the roof and shouted a few times into the house.
"Sword!"
Chu Jian still had his eyes closed, motionless and unresponsive.
Xiao Xixi jumped off the roof.
Taoist Tianyi advised: "You have seen it all, it is time to go back, right?"
Xiao Xixi ignored his dissuasion and kicked the door open with his internal force.
The door slammed down with a loud bang.
But Chu Jian, lying on the bed, still did not respond.
Taoist Tianyi was horrified: "Hey, Madam, what are you doing? This is Kongchan's residence. You broke his door. How can I explain this to him when I get back?"
Xiao Xixi strode in, grabbed Chu Jian's collar and shook it hard.
"Xiaojian, wake up!"
Taoist Tianyi was stunned when he saw this, and asked in doubt, "Madam, do you know Kong Chan's disciple?"
Xiao Xixi wanted to curse.
What apprentice? This is clearly her junior apprentice!
She called Shang Kui, who was waiting outside the door, in and asked him to use the sword he carried with him to cut the chain on Chu Jian's ankle.
Taoist Tianyi then noticed the two chains and couldn't help but mutter.
"What's wrong with Kong Chan? He actually locked up his own disciple. Even if his disciple has a mental problem, he shouldn't do this."
Xiao Xixi asked Shang Kui to carry Chu Jian on his back.
Taoist Tianyi hurriedly asked, "Where are you taking him? He is Kong Chan's disciple, you can't just take him away."
Xiao Xixi said with a gloomy face: "I'm going to take him to see a doctor."
Taoist Tianyi: "I know medical skills, I can help him."
Xiao Xixi was skeptical.
"real?"
Shang Kui reminded quietly: "Tianyi Taoist's medical skills are very superb, and many people know about this."
Only then did Xiao Xixi agree to let Taoist Tianyi treat Chu Jian.
Taoist Tianyi first took Chu Jian's pulse, then checked his wrists and ankles, and finally said.
"He must have been drugged with a large amount of drugs, so he won't be able to wake up for a while. In addition, his tendons in his hands and feet have been cut. Even if he wakes up, I'm afraid he will be a useless person."
Taoist Tianyi was not stupid. On the contrary, he was knowledgeable and experienced. After taking Chu Jian's pulse, he immediately realized that this young man was definitely not Kong Chan's disciple.
No master would drug his apprentice.
Xiao Xixi asked coldly, "Does he have any other injuries?"
Taoist Tianyi: "I need to take off his clothes for inspection."
Xiao Xixi had no choice but to turn her back.
Shang Kui helped Chu Jian take off his clothes, and Taoist Tianyi helped to check him.
"My lady, this young man has no other injuries on his body."
Hearing this, Xiao Xixi felt a little relieved.
They definitely couldn't stay in this place any longer, so she asked Shang Kui to carry Chu Jian on his back.
This time, Taoist Tianyi did not stop them.
Taoist Tianyi even took the initiative to suggest: "Don't go through the main entrance, so as not to be seen by others. Go through the side door, there are not many people there."
He personally escorted everyone out of the Taoist temple, and only closed the gate after everyone got on the car.
The carriage carried Xiao Xixi and Chu Jian down the mountain.
She couldn't bring Chu Jian back to the palace, and the General Zhongwu's Mansion was not suitable either.
After much hesitation, she finally decided to send Chu Jian to the Prince of England's palace.
King Luo Yechen of England refused without even thinking.
"No! I don't even know this guy, why should I take him in?!"
Xiao Xixi: "His name is Chu Jian, he is my junior fellow apprentice."
Luo Yechen: "And then?"
Xiao Xixi: "You already know who he is, which means you already know him. Can you take him in now?"
Luo Yechen rolled his eyes angrily: "You are dreaming!"
Bu Shengyan couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Luo Yechen on the back.
"Speak nicely and don't be rude to the queen."
Then she said to Concubine Xiao, "It's just taking in one person, which is not a big problem for us, but we know why you put him in the Prince of Ying's mansion? Are you in any trouble?"
Xiao Xixi thought that it was a good thing that she had a British princess, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to communicate with the British king.
She said quickly, "My fellow apprentice brother was murdered. His tendons in his hands and feet were all cut. He needs someone to take care of him. I don't trust anyone else, so I sent him to you. I won't hide it from you. The one who murdered him is Kong Chan, the Taoist priest who has been favored by the emperor recently."
Bu Shengyan was stunned: "How could your junior brother be harmed by him?"
Xiao Xixi: "I don't know about this either. I can only wait until Junior Brother wakes up and ask him."
Bu Shengyan has always been quick and efficient in doing things, and this time is no exception.
She thought for a moment and said, "Okay, leave the man with us and we will take care of him for you."
Luo Yechen was not convinced: "Why should we help her?"
Bu Shengyan: "Do you remember our three rules? You promised me that you would listen to me on all the small matters at home. Now you have to listen to me. I can help you if I say so."
Luo Yechen: “…”
Xiao Xixi cannot spend the night outside the palace.
After settling Chu Jian down, she took a carriage back to the palace.
In the evening, Kong Chan returned to Sanqing Temple, but found that the door of his room was broken and the person who was supposed to stay in the room was missing.
Kong Chan immediately went to find Taoist Tianyi to ask the reason.
The Taoist priests of Tianyi pretended to be stupid.
"I don't know."
Poor little junior brother, pat his head.
Please give me a monthly ticket~~
