Chapter 140
Master Jingxin picked up the knife on the table and showed it to Xue Chang: "Is this your knife?"

"Yes. After I was counted by Tang Tianshu, he took my knife and scabbard, killed the injured Qin Hankuan, and then deliberately discarded them at the scene." Xue Chang replied.

Meditation Master looked at the scabbard too carefully: "There is indeed a hole pierced by the sword here, and then the entire scabbard was cut, which is in line with what Xue Shaoxia you just said."

As she spoke, she picked up another long sword: "Is this Xiao Hongzhang's sword?"

"Yes." Xue Chang replied.

The meditator carefully gestured at the scratches on the scabbard with the long sword, and then said: "It is true that this sword pierced your scabbard. Xue Shaoxia, under the sudden attack of three people, can you come up with this idea?" This method was used to deal with the enemy, and it was successful, and the quick and decisive response is really amazing!"

"At that time, there was no choice but to risk the danger of back injury and survive from death. Fortunately, the Buddha blesses us!" Xue Chang recalled the scene at that time, and still had lingering fears.

"Now I believe that what you just said is basically true."

Hearing Mrs. Jingxin's words, Luo Lanmeng breathed a sigh of relief. She and Xue Chang had already discussed it and made some changes to the incident, especially omitting the fact that she was almost insulted and that Xue Chang pulled out the needle for her.

Seeing Mrs. Jingxin's peaceful eyes turned to her, Luo Lanmeng suddenly felt nervous again, but Mrs. Jingxin just looked at her, then turned to Xue Chang, and asked with a serious expression: "Xue Shaoxia, what do you think?" Xiao Hongzhang, Qin Hankuan and this man named Zhao Si joined hands to plot against you, what is the reason?"

This time Xue Chang said truthfully: "I didn't know the reason at the beginning, because everyone got along well in the scout team, and I always regarded them as teammates. Later, after Tang Tianshu plotted against me, he took me to the cave. He told I said, 'Qin Hankuan and the others wanted to kill me because they were instructed by a nobleman'.

But he didn't mention the nobleman's name, he just said that I had offended this nobleman recently.And after I returned to Chengdu, I basically stayed in the mansion to handle housework, rarely went out, and only had a conflict with a noble person—" Xue Chang stopped talking, and looked at Master Jingxin.

Master Jingxin also looked at him with piercing eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"

"It's the King of Shu from the Chengdu Mansion!" Xue Chang said cautiously, "He sent stewards to buy my restaurant over and over again, but I rejected them all. The purchase channel of the restaurant..."

Mrs. Jingxin didn't seem to be intimidated by the name of the King of Shu, she said with a serious face: "Xue Shaoxia, don't worry, I will inform Commander Jiang Shijia about this as soon as possible. Political affairs', but there is also a prohibition, 'Court officials and children of the royal family are not allowed to meddle in Jianghu affairs', if there is any evidence to prove that this noble man was instigating behind him, and he has his own organization to handle this matter, don't worry, he will never escape punishment. "

"Junior understands, thank you, Mrs. Xue!" Xue Chang heaved a sigh of relief.

"About the incident you just mentioned about Tang Tianshu plotting against you, using ten thousand ants to torture you, and forcing you to speak out about the martial arts you know, do you think this was done by him personally, or...inspired by others?" Meditation Master When Tai talked about Tang Tianshu, he was obviously more cautious.

Xue Chang didn't have such scruples, he said bluntly: "After Tang Tianshu captured me in the cave, I used words to test him. He didn't worry at all about the incident being exposed in the future and that the inspector would hunt him down. Unscrupulously hurt Miss Luo—"

Xue Chang stared at Mrs. Jingxin, and said emphatically, "Obviously he has nothing to fear, so I asked him tentatively if he was ordered by the Tang Sect? He didn't answer, but suddenly started to activate the Ten Thousand Ants Biting Heart Needle... Besides , I still have a doubt and would like to ask my wife, why are there three people in my scout team who are against me, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, who arranged them to be on my team?"

Listening to Xue Chang's forceful questioning, Mrs. Jingxin lowered her eyebrows, and after a long silence, she said solemnly: "Xue Shaoxia, I can't give you a clear answer until the matter is clarified, but in the war It is really not a trivial matter that such a thing happened during this period. The inspector will definitely investigate thoroughly, and you will get a clear answer in the end. But before that, I hope that the few present here can strictly keep the secret and do not tell this matter to avoid it. Some unnecessary gossip and commotion."

Xue Chang was about to respond, but Gu Shijing's face was already full of frost, and she shouted in a deep voice: "You don't need to say, we will keep the secret, after all, this involves the reputation of my disciples of the Goddess Palace, but if you think my Goddess Palace is easy to bully, then think about it." Forget it, if you don't give me a satisfactory answer in the end, our Goddess Palace has its own channel for the emperor to come and ask about this in person!"

Master Jingxin raised his white eyebrows too, and said in a flat tone: "I am just a monk, but I am temporarily appointed to control the martial arts people in the barracks. Palace Master Gu, you should wait for Commander Jiang to return and tell him these words in person before you kick in."

Gu Shijing snorted heavily, but did not speak again.

Mrs. Jingxin went on to say: "Xue Shaoxia, Miss Luo, you two saw through the conspiracy of the rebels today, notified the barracks in time, and joined forces to kill Jin Anran, Zhao Chen and others who rebelled against Tiejianmen. He also severely injured the Wulin people in the rebel army, which can be described as a great achievement. I will report this matter to Commander Jiang, and I believe that the imperial court will reward you both generously."

"Thank you, Master!" Xue Chang cupped his hands again to thank him.

Luo Lanmeng didn't care too much about the rewards, but she was still very happy to receive the rewards with Xue Chang.

Mrs. Jingxin continued: "Master Gu, the martial arts people in the rebel army have suffered heavy losses, and we have also discovered hidden dangers in the camp. The military camp should be safer than before. In view of the lack of manpower caused by such incidents in your scout team, you can Reduce the number of patrols, and the patrol route is only around the barracks, what do you think?"

Although Master Jingxin showed goodwill, Gu Shijing still responded coldly: "I will consider it."

After watching the maiden and Xue Chang leave, Mrs. Jingxin showed a bit of worry on her face, and she couldn't help sighing: "Oh, there may be troubles in the Bashu martial arts!"

"Master, are you referring to the Tang Sect and the Yindu Sect?" Lingyu asked curiously from the side.

"Lingyu, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, and feed me everything you heard tonight. You are not too young, and you should know the severity of some things." Said seriously.

"The disciple understands."

"It's getting late, hurry up and go back to rest. Tomorrow you have to take a few disciples with Xue Chang, go to that cave to investigate, and then bring back Tang Tianshu's body. Be careful, don't let others see it!"

"Yes."

..........................................................................................

The moon hangs in the sky, the night is dark, and the fighting and noise before have long since returned to silence.

Xue Chang walked in the front alone, while Luo Lanmeng, Gu Shijing, and Zhou Wanyao fell behind side by side. The four of them walked silently without speaking.

Their accommodation is not far away, and they will arrive soon. Seeing that Xue Chang is about to enter the yard belonging to the fifth scout team, Luo Lanmeng finally couldn't help shouting: "Xue Lang!——"

This shout made both Gu Shijing and Zhou Wanyao change their expressions.

Xue Chang turned his head quickly, looked at Luo Lanmeng's figure, and said softly, "Lanmeng, you go back and have a good rest, tomorrow I will formally visit your master and uncle."

"Yeah!" Luo Lanmeng nodded knowingly, feeling relieved.

Xue Chang didn't care whether Gu Shijing and Zhou Wanyao looked good or not, he bowed respectfully to them, and then walked into the courtyard.

The three people from Goddess Palace also walked into the next yard, and Lu Lingyun, who was still waiting in the yard, hurried up to greet her, and kept saying, "Why did you come back so late?! I'm almost sleepy! Where did you hide, Senior Sister? It made me look for you for a long time! You must have participated in the fight in the baggage warehouse, how about it, isn’t it very enjoyable? It’s a pity that Master won’t let me go—”

"Lingyun, hurry up and go to bed!" Gu Shijing interrupted her with a straight face.

"Master, I still want to talk to my senior sister—" Before Lu Lingyun finished speaking, Gu Shijing shouted: "Go!"

"Oh..." Lu Lingyun had no choice but to obey, and when she walked to her room, she muttered dissatisfiedly: "You must have something to hide from me..."

Gu Shijing and Zhou Wanyao took Luo Lanmeng into another room and locked the door.

Luo Lanmeng was a little nervous by these actions of the two of them, and couldn't help asking: "Master, uncle, what are you doing?!"

"Lanmeng, tell Master—" Zhou Wanyao sat in front of her apprentice, stared at her, and said with a tense and dignified expression: "Did that villain named Tang Tianshu...did... insult you?!"

When Luo Lanmeng heard that she was asking this, she felt relieved and immediately shook her head: "No!"

"No?" Zhou Wanyao was a little disbelieving: "Where is your Taoist robe? You are wearing men's clothes now, and it is Tangmen's attire. Not only we can see it, but Master Jingxin can also see it, but she is embarrassed. Just asking."

"Really not! Yes, that villain tore up my Taoist robe and wanted to..." Luo Lanmeng was a little anxious: "But Xue... Xue Chang unlocked the acupuncture points in time, killed Tang Tianshu, and rescued Tang Tianshu. me!"

"That's good!" Zhou Wanyao breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Shijing continued to ask with a sullen face, "Where is that kid named Xue Chang? Didn't your whole body... be seen by him at that time, what did he do to you?!"

Hearing this, Luo Lanmeng felt ashamed, but more angry: "Xue Lang is upright, he will not take advantage of others' danger to do such evil things! If you don't believe me, I can let you check!"

Of course Gu Shijing and Zhou Wanyao understood what Luo Lanmeng meant by the inspection. Since she dared to say that, it should be fine.

The two looked at each other, Zhou Wanyao considered her words, and asked cautiously: "Lanmeng, of course Master believes in you. Your uncle and I are completely relieved that you can come back safely! Uh, tell Master To be honest... That young man named Xue Chang... Is it because he saved you that you have some special affection for him? If so, when he comes to the door tomorrow, we can have a good talk with him .”

A trace of blush appeared on Luo Lanmeng's delicate cheeks like beautiful jade. Facing the gentle and amiable master, she really wanted to express her heart, but she caught a glimpse of Gu Shijing with a serious face next to her from the corner of her eye. She was smart and immediately realized that this was the master. Just saying what she said, she immediately stood up and stretched her waist: "Master, I'm really sleepy and I don't have the energy to talk, so I'm going to bed first." She walked out of the house after saying that.

Gu Shijing wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Zhou Wanyao, until the sound of the door opening and closing of the next room came, Gu Shijing asked in a low voice: "Junior Sister, why don't you let me ask you clearly?!"

"Senior Sister, it's not that you don't know Lanmeng's character. If she doesn't want to talk about it, no matter how much you force him, she won't talk about it. Instead, she will quarrel with us!" Zhou Wanyao persuaded helplessly.

"It's not all about you!" Gu Shijing pointed at her junior sister and reprimanded in a low voice: "It's because you spoiled and spoiled him since she was a child that she developed the disobedient problem she is now! She and that boy There must be an affair! What should I do now?!"

"Senior Sister, no matter what, Lanmeng's body is innocent, so we have nothing to worry about." Zhou Wanyao persuaded patiently: "Since that young man will come to the door tomorrow, let's have a good talk with him."

"Hmph, we need to have a good talk with him!" Gu Shijing said coldly, with a bit of anger evident in her words.

..............................................................................

Xue Chang returned to the small courtyard belonging to the fifth scout team. He was the only one left in the room where four people lived originally, but he didn't feel any sentimentality. Instead, he felt quite at ease. He threw himself on the bed and made a sound of comfort He groaned, and then his mind entered the system in his mind. He didn't want to practice, but to test the results: the user killed Jin Anran and gained 50 prestige points.

After reading this message, Xue Chang was stunned for a moment: Jin Anran's martial arts is obviously stronger than Tang Tianshu and Xiao Hongzhang's, but the prestige points gained are less than them, why?
After thinking about it, he immediately understood: probably because his martial arts had improved significantly, Jin Anran became weaker compared to his current self, so the prestige points he gained were naturally much less.

From this point of view... Xue Chang hurriedly opened the next message: The user gains 5 prestige points for injuring Zhao Chen.

There are only 5 prestige points!That's right, Zhao Chen was mainly fighting against Lanmeng, and I just succeeded in a sneak attack... Thinking of this, Xue Chang was relieved, and then looked at the next message: The user defeated Miao Haojun and gained 65 prestige points.
