Chapter 158
After Lu Ling got used to it a little, Xu Qing led her and began to walk back.
Along the way, Lu Ling asked some questions from time to time, while Xu Qing answered patiently.
These incognito informants are worthy of respect.
Risking his life, but not half paid, even if he has it, he can't take it out and use it.
Moreover, most of the informants exist in remote areas, and the living conditions are quite miserable.
Like Lu Ling, it can be considered good.
Therefore, Xu Qing's attitude was very good, and he did not have impatient thoughts because Lu Ling talked too much.
After a long time.
The two followed a path back to Xianzhou City.
On the street, from time to time, a group of people in colorful clothes were running, obviously still inquiring about Xu Qing and the two.
Fortunately, although Xianzhou is remote, some merchants come to buy catch.
Therefore, Lu Ling's new appearance did not attract the attention of others.
Lu Ling led the way, and the two walked quickly towards the witch's house.
Xianzhou was not large, and soon reached the other side of the city.
As soon as he walked out of the alley, Xu Qing saw the house at a glance.
Without him, it is too conspicuous.
Outside the house hangs two pink lanterns with the words "soft fragrance" written on them.
From far away, Xu Qing could smell a faint fragrance.
This aroma has an indescribable feeling.
At first smell, it is indeed a fragrant smell, or a sweet smell appears.
But if you smell it carefully, you feel sweet and greasy, fragrant and disgusting.
As an eight-rank martial artist, Xu Qing's five senses have improved a lot, and at this time, he felt it even more profoundly, frowned, and used true qi to filter the wisps of aroma.
Suddenly, sweet and normal air poured into the nasal cavity.
He took a deep breath and felt much less nausea in his heart.
Lu Ling's brows frowned slightly, and she was also very uncomfortable with this smell.
However, she did not notice the abnormality, but instinctively had a physiological nausea to it.
The opposite of Xu Qing and the two.
At this moment, dozens of people were gathered around the door of the house.
Their expressions were intoxicated, and they looked like they had smelled something wonderful.
And at this time.
A man walked out of the house, striding meteors, his face was rosy, and he looked very good.
The people around him were envious, and when he walked out, someone immediately walked in.
Xu Qing's gaze locked on the person who had just walked out, and at a glance, he could see the void of his inner body, and his qi and blood seemed to be vigorous, but in fact it was close to exhaustion.
If you don't immediately use the big supplement to make up, you probably won't live for half a year!
Even if someone now intervenes to heal him, his foundation is damaged and his life expectancy is greatly reduced.
A body that could have lived to be seventy years old, but living to forty is considered to burn high incense.
"This is it." Lu Ling said in a low voice.
She didn't dare to look more, for fear that others would notice the strange appearance of the two, and looked at passers-by suspiciously.
As everyone knows, her behavior is suspicious.
Xu Qing turned his head and whispered, "Take it easy, no one will recognize who you are now."
Lu Ling nodded slightly, and her expression relaxed slightly.
Xu Qing immediately took Lu Ling forward and walked around, and found that there were nearly fifty people outside the courtyard.
He immediately dismissed the idea of doing it.
Looking up at the sky, it was still early, so I simply looked at the terrain in Xianzhou City.
Lu Ling just followed honestly.
Naturally, after she knew that Xu Qing was a Jinyiwei Baihu from the capital, her heart was a lot more secure.
Now it's good to be a good leader, as for other things, naturally Master Xu will consider it.
In the process of wandering around, the two met many people who were searching in the city.
They were imposing and armed with weapons, but most of them were agricultural tools.
Xu Qing's thoughts moved, and he asked aloud, "Is there no official mansion in Xianzhou City?"
Lu Ling hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, it's just that he died of illness some time ago, and the new one has not taken office."
Our Xianzhou City is so big, and there were only a few people in the Yamen before.
After the original adults died, they all slacked off and did not care about things in the city.
Moreover, in places like ours, those respected clan elders often speak heavier than official officials..." Xu
Qing nodded and did not ask again.
This is not uncommon.
In remote areas, the functions of the government will be much reduced.
In order to reduce trouble, local officials will not work against the local people, so they have formed a situation where the well water does not interfere with the river water.
Xianzhou City was very small, and Xu Qing remembered those roads in his heart, so he casually found a restaurant to eat.
Lu Ling obviously hadn't eaten for a long time, and at this time, he couldn't care about his image, and ate several bowls of rice in a row, causing the restaurant owner to glance at this side several times.
"Great... What do we do next?
Lu Ling wiped her mouth and asked in a low voice.
Xu Qing said lightly: "Wait until it gets dark, you don't want to make it like I'm going to kill someone, just go to listen to the corner of the wall, see if there is any information..."
Lu Ling took an embarrassed sip of tea and remained silent.
At this time, on the street on the side, a group of people in colorful clothes passed by.
Several of them were talking about something.
Xu Qing raised his eyebrows and listened carefully.
"That woman was so lucky, she was saved by a vicious thief!"
"Where do you say they can run? It won't go into the mountains, will it?
"That's better, save trouble, you don't know in the mountains, there are highly poisonous miasma everywhere, and poisonous snakes and poisonous insects are everywhere, after the two of them go in, maybe they are all dead now."
"It's also said that our Xianzhou is so big in total, if they were in the city, they would have been discovered long ago."
"Okay, don't talk about this, the sacrifice is like this, the river god is furious, we have to hurry to find the witch and ask Niangniang's instructions, if Niangniang is angry and cancels the opportunity to go to the island as a guest later, it will not be good!"
"Yes, yes, let's go to the witch quickly!"
Several people hurried towards the witch's house.
They were afraid that they could not imagine that their words fell into Xu Qing's ears.
Xu Qing thought a little, looked at the sky, the twilight was getting late, and the big sun in the sky had already fallen to the horizon.
"Let's go, I'll find a place to wait for me later, I'll go see the situation."
Xu Qing stood up.
Lu Lingzhen nodded and followed his footsteps.
Within a few moments, the witch's house appeared on the opposite side of the alley exit.
The pink lantern was already lit, reflecting a pale pink light in the doorway.
And those people in colorful clothes happened to walk in.
"Just wait for me here."
Xu Qing whispered, and then his figure shook, and he suddenly disappeared from the alley.
A fresh breeze appeared, and his whole person seemed to turn into a breeze, blending with the cool evening breeze at dusk, and under the cover of dim light, he appeared silently in the house like a ghost.
