Chapter 639 Make Him Pay the Price
Chu Jian felt his nose felt much better, and then he continued speaking.
"Then I met a Taoist priest who said his name was Kong Chan."
When Xiao Xixi heard the name, she perked up and asked, "Then what?"
"Kong Chan said he knew where my mother was buried. It just so happened that he was going there too, so we went together."
Xiao Xixi: "You don't even know who that person is, yet you dare to go with him? Did you forget your brain at home when you went out?"
Chu Jian pouted and defended himself aggrievedly.
“He told me that he was our master’s junior fellow apprentice, which means he was my uncle.
I didn't believe it at first, but he told me a lot about our Master.
What he said was exactly the same as what our Master said, not a single word was wrong, so, so I believed it. "
Xiao Xixi held her forehead with her hand: "If Master really had a junior brother, why didn't he mention him for so many years?"
Chu Jian: "Kong Chan said that he had some conflicts with our master, and our master never mentioned him because he had some problems in his heart."
Xiao Xixi: "Do you believe this?"
Chu Jian: "He, what he said sounds quite like that."
Xiao Xixi took a deep breath and told herself that this was her biological junior brother, not someone she had picked up, so she couldn't beat him to death.
She suppressed the urge to slap him on the head and asked expressionlessly.
"What happened next? What did he do to you?"
Chu Jian said angrily: "He put drugs in my food and made me faint.
When I woke up, I found myself locked up, the acupoints on my body were blocked, and I couldn't use any internal strength.
I asked him what he was going to do?
He said he wanted to take me in as his apprentice."
Xiao Xixi didn't expect this to happen, and was stunned: "He drugged you in order to take you as his apprentice?"
Luo Yechen: "Is there something wrong with his brain?"
Bu Shengyan nodded: "You finally said something sensible."
Luo Yechen: “…”
Chu Jian continued, "I already have a master, how could I switch to someone else? So I rejected him without hesitation. He said there was no rush and asked me to think about it slowly, and then he left.
He put drugs in my food every day. I would fall into a deep sleep every time after eating, and every time I woke up, I would find that the environment around me had changed.
He should be taking me on a journey, but I don’t know where he is taking me.”
Xiao Xixi asked expressionlessly, "Can't you just not eat the food he gave you?"
Chu Jian said pitifully: "But I'm hungry."
Xiao Xixi: “…”
Chu Jian: "When you are hungry, don't you want to eat?"
Xiao Xixi was speechless.
Chu Jian: "I don't think this is a solution.
In order to find a chance to escape, I pretended to compromise and agreed to take him as my master.
He was quite happy and specially set up a banquet.
This time he didn't put drugs in the food, and I was still sober after eating.
On the contrary, he was so happy that he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses and then got drunk.
I took advantage of him being drunk and quietly escaped.
But I didn't get far before he caught me.
It turned out that he was not drunk at all.
He lied to me and tried to test me, and unfortunately I fell for it."
Luo Yechen smacked his lips: "This old guy is quite insidious!"
Chu Jian felt sympathetic: "That's right!
He is not only insidious, but also extremely vicious.
When he found out that I had escaped, he was so angry that he cut the tendons in my hands and feet, turning me into a disabled person.
He said that as long as I became a cripple, I would obediently become his apprentice and I would never be able to run away again. "
Xiao Xixi originally thought that Kong Chan's statement that Chu Jian was his disciple was just a lie to fool people, but she didn't expect that Kong Chan was actually telling the truth and he really treated Chu Jian as his disciple.
It's just that Kong Chan is mentally ill and does things too extreme. If he were put in modern society, he would definitely be put in a mental hospital for treatment.
Xiao Xixi was very curious: "Why did he insist on having you be his apprentice?"
Chu Jian was at a loss: "I don't know either."
Xiao Xixi: "Is he particularly interested in something or something?"
Chu Jian thought seriously, "He seemed to be very interested in our sect. Whenever he had some free time, he would ask me about our sect. I made up a lot of stories, and when he found out I was lying, he didn't get angry."
He sniffed and added.
"He took my master's token away."
The Xuanmen token is made of special materials and cannot be counterfeited.
Kong Chan must have used Chu Jian's token to package himself as a member of the Xuanmen sect in order to gain the emperor's trust.
From this perspective, Kong Chan was obviously coming for Xuanmen.
The reason why he targeted Chu Jian was because Chu Jian was a member of the Xuanmen.
She didn't know what kind of grudges and entanglements there were between Kong Chan and Xuanmen.
In short, since he dared to harm Chu Jian, she would make him pay the price.
Xiao Xixi turned her head and looked at Bu Shengyan.
"Princess sister, can you lend me someone?"
Bu Shengyan: "Who do you want to borrow?"
Xiao Xixi: "I don't know. Please call out all the servants in the palace. I want to screen them one by one."
Luo Yechen said angrily: "You are borrowing people from us, but you are so picky? Who gave you such a big face?!"
Bu Shengyan ignored him and nodded directly to Concubine Xiao.
"good."
Bu Shengyan has always been a decisive person.
She quickly gathered all the people in the mansion and handed them over to Concubine Xiao for selection.
Xiao Xixi put her hands behind her back and walked past those people one by one.
Finally it stopped in front of a young servant.
Xiao Xixi: "Look up and let me see."
The servant was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
He raised his head and gave an ingratiating smile.
Xiao Xixi stared at his face for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction: "It's you."
…
Kong Chan would enter the palace early in the morning every day and leave when the sun set.
Today is no exception.
Kong Chan walked out of the palace gate. He seemed to be sick. He kept covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and occasionally lowered his head to cough lightly.
With the help of the coachman, he got into the carriage.
The coachman drove the carriage away.
The carriage drove steadily on the street as usual.
It turned a few corners and when it was passing a narrow road, suddenly a carriage loaded with stones rushed straight towards it!
There were houses on both sides, and the carriage Kong Chan was in had no way to avoid, and collided with the carriage on the opposite side.
Large pieces of stone rolled out and smashed the two carriages to pieces on the spot, burying the people in the carriages.
After receiving the report from the masses, the officials from Jingzhao Prefecture hurried over.
They rolled away the stones and dug out the people buried underneath.
There were three people in total, two of whom died.
Only one person is still alive.
He was carried back to Jingzhao Prefecture for treatment.
After he woke up, Mei Guangtao asked him about the case.
He said he was a coachman, responsible for transporting Taoist Master Kong Chan back and forth between the imperial palace and Sanqing Temple every day.
