Chapter 58: The Evil Man
While he was deep in thought, a sweet fragrance suddenly came from his nose, which was refreshing. Qin Yi didn't need to turn his head to know that the person coming was Xuan Lingyao.
He has memorized her unique fragrance.
It can be said that you know a woman by smelling her fragrance.
Turning around, he saw Xuan Lingyao looking at the sparkling water, as if in a trance, Qin Yi did not disturb her.
The bright moon shines on the beautiful woman, and her pretty face glows with a faint glow, becoming more and more pure and pure, like a banished immortal.
This scene was so touching that Qin Yi was reluctant to break it.
But it had to be broken.
Because from Xuan Lingyao's eyes, he saw a deep and lingering sadness.
Obviously, she was still immersed in the previous topic and sentimental about the lost thing.
Therefore, Qin Yi was extremely curious about what she had lost, and couldn't help but ask, "Although it's a bit abrupt, I still want to ask, did you...lost something?"
Xuan Lingyao raised her head, her eyes like autumn water concealed her sadness, with a little bit of anger, "Was that you just now?"
It turned out that she had noticed someone approaching... Qin Yi was a little embarrassed and touched his nose, "It's just out of curiosity, please forgive me."
Xuan Lingyao pursed her red lips and continued to look at the lake, her eyes a little distracted, "That is the charm given to me by my father... and it is also his relic..."
Qin Yi was stunned for a moment.
That's it, no wonder she is so sad.
It can be seen that Xuan Lingyao and her father must have a good relationship.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Yi asked, "Where was it lost?"
"Ceyuan battlefield," Xuan Lingyao's tone was a little low, "the day of the gambling battle with Chongzhitang."
Qin Yi was surprised, he didn't expect that it was lost at that time.
Maybe he was so excited that he accidentally lost this item.
He was about to ask again, but Xuan Lingyao continued, "After I found out that it was missing, I went to look for it the next day, but I couldn't find it..."
Qin Yi was silent for a moment and asked, "Why don't you report it to the official and let the police find it?"
Xuan Lingyao shook her head, "This charm is of great significance to me, but it is made of wood and has little value. It should not waste people and money."
Qin Yi frowned slightly. As Xuan Lingyao, even if it was only worth a penny, as long as she reported it to the government, the government would not dare to neglect it, and the chance of getting her back would be greater.
After all, no matter in this life or in previous lives in ancient times, high-ranking officials, nobles, and children of famous families all have privileges that common people do not have.
Xu Shi realized that Qin Yi was a little confused, and Xuan Lingyao whispered, "Father once said, don't use power for personal gain..."
Qin Yi was surprised when he heard this.
How could there be such an upright official at this time?
Immediately, he understood that Xuan Lingyao must have loved and admired her father so much that even after his death, she still followed his teachings.
Therefore, he was particularly curious, why did Xuan Lingyao's father die?
Realizing that his thoughts were drifting away, Qin Yi quickly came back to his senses and thought to himself.
Since it is a wooden charm and not new, logically speaking, there is no motive for stealing it and selling it.
So, rule out this possibility.
For a moment, Qin Yi couldn't think of any clues, but he had already made a decision. Since this thing is so precious, he would help Xuan Lingyao find it.
After all, the other party's temperament is very suitable for him. Even if he is not greedy for her body, it is not a big problem for him to be an ordinary friend and help him.
As for the lack of clues, so what?
He has a system and relies on the positioning function, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
So, he said aloud, "Let me find it for you."
Xuan Lingyao was slightly startled, looked at her with a pretty face, and slowly shook her head, "I can't find him anymore, so there's no need to waste your time."
"You don't believe me?" Qin Yi smiled.
This beauty encouraged him several times and told him to just do it, because she had full confidence in him.
But why do I have no confidence this time?
Xuan Lingyao pursed her red lips, "I've been looking for it for a long time..."
The implication is that she has been looking for it for a long time but has not found it. Even if Qin Yi is both civil and military, far superior to ordinary people, he can't find things better than ordinary people, right?
Seeing that the other party was in a bad mood, Qin Yi didn't say much. He was a little curious. After he found it, would this beauty say "fuck"?
After waiting for a while, Qin Yi and Xuan Lingyao returned to the lobby and found that many young masters in brocade clothes were leaving one after another.
After Shao Guangyuan and Shi Xinji said goodbye, Qin Yi took his car back to Ce Yuan.
Before getting off the bus, Shao Guangyuan hesitated to speak, then smiled bitterly and said nothing more.
After saying some words of admiration, he said goodbye and left.
Returning to his residence, Qin Yi did not delay. He opened the system panel and found that the exclamation point had changed from 3150 to 4650, which was a good increase.
Just thinking about the need for 20,000 exclamation points to achieve a perfect body, Qin Yi felt helpless. Now this value can be said to be a drop in the bucket, and he doesn't know when he can get it together.
Immediately, he used the positioning function and thought to himself, "Where is Xuan Lingyao's charm?"
In an instant, a picture appeared in front of his eyes. It was very cramped and dark, with almost no light around it.
Qin Yi sometimes opened his eyes wide and sometimes squinted them, but he couldn't see clearly and couldn't help but be surprised.
Where is this?
He couldn't see clearly at all.
But he didn't give up. After the screen disappeared, he used the positioning function again, and the same screen appeared again, but strangely, this time the screen was brighter.
But it was only a little bit, so Qin Yi squinted his eyes tightly before he could see the things in the picture clearly.
He was secretly surprised, why did the light change like this?
Could it be that the picture itself is moving and the light is changing accordingly, so I used the positioning function twice, so the screenshots will be different?
This should be.
Not daring to delay, Qin Yi quickly calmed down and looked at it carefully.
But as soon as he saw it, his heart suddenly trembled, and then he sank rapidly!
Yes, the items in the picture are indeed the string ornaments described by Xuan Lingyao. Although they are made of wood, they are very exquisite.
But what surprised him was that there was a paper charm affixed to the surface of this charm!
A paper talisman with a strange pattern carved with cinnabar!
An eerie, cold, and mysterious aura came to my face.
What the hell!
When Qin Yi saw it, he couldn't help but cursed angrily.
Xuan Lingyao is such a beautiful and low-key woman. She belongs to a famous family, but she doesn't have princess disease, is not arrogant and domineering, and is so peaceful in the world. How could someone put a curse on her?
Which sand sculpture is it?
Before the picture disappeared, Qin Yi hurriedly observed and found that in addition to the charm with paper charms, there was also an accessory in the picture, a jade pendant.
Although this jade pendant is engraved with exquisite patterns, it does not have any fonts and its recognition is zero. Qin Yi cannot recognize it and does not remember whether he has seen it before.
Then, he used the positioning function several times, but the screens that appeared were similar. He couldn't get any more information, so he turned to the prompt function.
Chapter completed!
