When she woke up again, Gu Qingling found herself lying on a "flower bed".
It is said to be a flower bed, but it is actually a bed board covered with flowers. It has been floating in the river for an unknown period of time and has now reached the shore.
Gu Qingling: "..."
Suddenly I remembered last night...
Just when she was preparing to be bitten by a dog in order to "survive", the space that had been quiet for a long time suddenly issued a red alert: [Alert! Alert! Red alert!]
What?! Gu Qingling, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly woke up.
[A strange poison invades and the host’s life is in danger. Should I use the ‘Spiritual Spring’ to cut the bones and wash the marrow? 】
Is God playing tricks on her?! She finally accepted the fact of "travelling" and was ready to accept her fate and become this old lady. However, she was kidnapped in the middle of the night because of a rouge prescription. In the middle of the kidnapping, she was kidnapped by another person.
The Bo people were confused and their innocence was lost for no reason.
Forget it, now she is still poisoned to death because of "this kind of thing"?!
Damn, she is just a "tool" for detoxification!
"Can I choose not to use it?"
[You can. Turn on the ‘death countdown’, 100, 90, 60, 10, 9...]
How can the countdown still be dancing like this?!
Gu Qingling's mouth twitched, not daring to joke with his own life, and chose "save". Although the spiritual spring is very precious, and it takes only a month to save a spoonful, but there is nothing after death, so life is more important.
After detoxifying, Gu Qingling was about to get up when she suddenly found a jade pendant hanging around her waist.
The jade was carved into something like a dragon, forming a circle with the word "安" in the middle.
"What does this mean? It's not the man who stayed here, right?" Gu Qingling was surprised. This was simply "evidence". Could it be said that he still felt "guilty"?
fart!
If you really feel guilty, why don't you die yourself and have someone else die for you?
Gu Qingling threw the jade pendant into the space with a look of disgust:
"If you weren't the proof, I would feel dirty!"
Fortunately, the transportation in ancient times was not very developed, and there were kidnappings and horse-drawn carriages. Even after a whole night of trouble, she was not too far away from Ningshan Temple.
After a while, she saw someone and used some scraps of silver to ride on their bullock cart and sent her to the foot of Ningshan Temple.
Because Ningshan Temple is located in a remote place, even though it is almost noon, there are not many people coming to offer incense. After all, compared to the Jing'an Temple that suffered a big fire, it is less famous and is further away from Yunyang City.
Of course, it was only a little further than Jing'an Temple, but it was actually quite close, otherwise Gu Qingling wouldn't have chosen it in the first place.
There was a carriage parked next to the temple. She would not have noticed it normally, but what happened last night made her very sensitive to the carriage, so she subconsciously took another look.
At this glance, I actually saw a very familiar person - Mr. Zhou?!
Gu Qingling: Why is he here?
"No?" Mr. Zhou heard the servant's report and had a guess in his mind.
Just when he saw the gang of servants running around in a panic looking for someone, he knew that something must have happened.
Sure enough, when he asked someone to test him, they didn't shirk the "missing" person. He must have disappeared and didn't want others to know.
--only……
——It’s strange. The person who kidnapped the person has been tied up all night, but he didn’t see anyone. Why is the old lady here still missing?
——Could it be that, in fact, they successfully kidnapped him, but they didn’t want to hand him over immediately and wanted to raise the price, so they hid him?
Master Zhou was immediately unhappy. He knew that only two hundred taels of silver was too little, but it was just because they wanted to spend it easy.
If he had known this, he shouldn't have saved this money. Now it's fine, he doesn't even know where he has gone.
"Master, do you think the old lady would carry such an important thing with her?" At this time, Master Zhou Cai's cronies came closer and whispered, "Instead of waiting for those unreliable kidnappers, why not?"
How about we make other preparations."
"What's the meaning?"
"Ningshan Temple." The confidant pointed to the temple not far away.
Mr. Zhou suddenly reacted: Yes, the old lady is not here, isn't it a good opportunity to make a move?
There are just a few servants, and the master is not here, what can they do?
He asked his cronies to come over and explained this in his ears.
Not long after, when Chen Ma and the others were still anxiously looking for someone, a monk knocked on their courtyard door: "This pilgrim has lost a cat, and it seems that it has entered your courtyard. I want to go in and look for it. Is it safe?"
Can you allow me a convenience?"
Looking for a cat? Mother Chen thought to herself that now that the old lady is not here, she should pretend to be "normal" and not let anyone see it.
So without any hesitation, she nodded.
However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as the other party came in, he pretended to search in the yard for a while, and then went straight to the old lady's house and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets.
Seeing this, Chen Ma immediately realized something was wrong: "Master, if you are looking for a cat, you are looking for a cat. How can you still go through the box?!"
"I saw my master's cat running in with my own eyes. I can't find it now. It must have been hidden by you. Let your master come out. I want to talk to your master..."
Chen Ma was terrified: "Why are you looking for our master? I can make the decision on this matter. If I say I haven't seen your cat, I haven't seen it. It's just a cat. Why would we covet your cat?"
"That's not necessarily true." The man raised his chin slightly, looking arrogant, indicating that his master's cat was an extraordinary creature, but was "rewarded" from above.
The things that were rewarded from above will be "lost", which is a big deal.
"Then you can't let them search like this. It doesn't look like they are looking for a cat. It just looks like they are rummaging through things."
"What should I do if I can't find it? They are also in a hurry. The cat is just that big," he gestured and said, "Who knows where it went. If they don't search carefully, what if they miss it?"
…
When Ma Chen heard the maid yelling that someone had taken the old lady's dressing box, she was immediately startled and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them: "What are you doing? Robbery. This is the old lady's thing, you can't take it..."
"Nonsense, who took your stuff? This is the cat we just brought in..." The man opened his eyes and told lies. He pointed directly at Lu Qingling's dressing box and said it was a "cat nest".
Not only that, but he also signaled two thugs to stop Chen Ma and others in case anyone came to rob them.
As for himself, he was holding the dressing box and wanted to leave in a swaggering manner.
Chen's mother was extremely anxious. Just when she didn't know what to do, a group of government officials armed with knives and sticks suddenly rushed in and captured the man.
Why are the yamen servants here?!
Chen Ma was stunned for a moment, and then she was happy: "You came just in time, it's them, they are all bad people, they are rummaging through the old lady's things everywhere, and they don't even know if they have lost anything. If this is really lost, wait for me
When the old lady comes back, what will I do to a servant like you..."
The man suddenly felt bad and quickly argued: "Don't listen to her. She's talking nonsense. The villain is here to find the cat, and he has the owner's permission. If you don't believe it, you can ask the owner to come out and follow her."
The villain confronts me."
Mother Chen was anxious: It’s over now, she doesn’t even know where the old lady is!
