accomplice

Zuo Ji sneaked to Zuo Shicheng's study room, peeped in through the window, saw that Zuo Shicheng didn't know what he was writing, and couldn't help frowning.

Just looking at him like this now, I really can't judge anything.

Zuo Ji wanted to go in and question him directly, but suddenly someone covered his mouth and put his shoulders on his shoulders.

In the room, Zuo Shicheng heard a slight voice and immediately became alert.

In the old eyes, the pupils rolled.

He put down his pen, came to the door, opened the door and went out to check. Seeing no one around, the old man frowned.

Confused, he retreated into the room and closed the door.

Zuo Ji was forcibly taken back to Qifeng Garden.

He was very dissatisfied, and said to Li Xi: "I was just about to ask, why did you arrest me?"

"As soon as you go in, it's meat on the cutting board."

"I'm his son, if it's fake, can't he eat me?"

"Didn't you say he led you to the killer?"

This is true.

This is also what Zuo Ji couldn't figure out the most.

"After you escaped, he ordered a search of the city, but it stopped after a while. In my opinion, the search of the city is fake, but it is true that he wants your life." Li Xi analyzed: "It's just Wang Bo was hit by your anesthetic and he couldn't move. The boat drifted with the water and drifted away from the shore. He couldn't control the boat to return until the drug was gone, so Zuo Shicheng probably didn't know that he failed to assassinate you and you escaped. .”

Li Xi's analysis is reasonable.

Zuo Ji was flustered and asked, "Then what should I do next?"

Li Xi rolled his eyes, raised his mouth slightly, and said, "Come back with me."

God help him, this is a great opportunity to kidnap Zuo Ji.

"Besides, we must get out of here before Womber comes back to report."

"Once Zuo Shicheng knows that you are not dead, he will find someone to get rid of you. If you stay here again, it will only be bad luck."

Seeing that he was hesitating, Li Xi deliberately said it seriously, forcing him to make a decision: "You have no memory, and every step of the way is startling when you come back here. However, Zhong Sheng can only take care of himself most of the time, and can't do everything for you. Now even Your family members can't be your support, so you might as well stay away from this intrigue, keep yourself safe, and be at ease."

Li Xi tried to persuade him, but seeing that he was still hesitant, he softened his voice: "I will ask someone to clean it up now, and when the city gate opens at dawn tomorrow, we will leave the city immediately?"

"Okay." Although Zuo Ji hesitated, he still agreed.

Li Xi smiled.

He glanced at the servant serving beside him, the servant understood and went out.

The next day.

As planned, they set off at dawn.

After counting the time, they left the city as soon as the city gate opened.

It went so smoothly in the beginning, Zuo Ji felt that perhaps Li Xi was overthinking, and the matter was not as serious as he had guessed.

However, when he lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked back, and found that a small leader led a team to take over the city gate, he was startled, and he was glad that he came out in time.

They traveled all the way and walked for four days. After passing through a barren area, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Someone came to report that someone stopped the car ahead for help, Zuo Ji wanted to get out of the car to have a look, but was stopped by Li Xi.

Li Xi said to the groom outside: "Find two people to accompany you to ask clearly."

"Yes."

The groom went and came back soon.

He replied to Li Xi: "There are six people on the other side, one master, one young master and four family servants. I heard that they planned to go to Yicheng to seek medical treatment, but the car broke down on the way."

Yicheng?Isn't the destination the same as theirs?

Zuo Ji thought to himself, and glanced at Li Xi.

He asked, "Is their carriage really broken down?"

"Yes." The groom replied, "They only have one carriage. The little one checked it just now, and the axle of the carriage is broken."

Zuo Ji was curious, lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and saw a familiar figure, he couldn't help being taken aback.

He got out of the carriage immediately.

This made Li Xi very puzzled.

Li Xi hurriedly followed.

I saw that Zuo Ji stepped forward and patted the man on the shoulder, the man turned his head, Zuo Ji saw that he didn't recognize him, and took a step back.

"I..." Zuo Ji rolled his eyes, smiled awkwardly, and changed his words: "I heard that the car broke down?"

"Yes." The man bowed his hands politely to him, and finally explained: "The main spindle below is broken and can't move."

This person was about the same height and shape as Mo Jia.

Just now, Zuo Ji just looked at his back and thought he had met him.

It was a little embarrassing to admit the wrong person, Zuo Ji asked him again: "What's your name?"

"I'm Bai Mayan."

Li Xi, who approached, raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the name.

He looked at the man.

Sword-browed and star-eyed, tall and tall, the clothes are exquisitely tailored and the fabrics are fine.

He knew it in his heart, smiled lightly, and said, "Good name."

Bai Mayan listened to Li Xi's praise, and bowed respectfully to him. Li Xi returned the salute, and suggested to him: "We have three carriages here, and we are also going to Yicheng. If you don't mind, you can go with us and have mutual respect along the way." What do you think of it?"

Bai Mayan was overjoyed, and just about to agree, he heard the old man in his carriage coughing and panting.

He hurried over, concerned: "Father."

After the intense coughing, an old man's voice came from the carriage and said, "Let's not bother you two gentlemen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Ji suddenly lifted the curtain in front of the car, and he was shocked.

Zuo Ji was curious.

This carriage is tilted,

The old man still stays on the top and won't come down, isn't he afraid that he will fall upside down with his car later?

Bai Mayan didn't expect him to be so impolite, so he hurried over and put down the curtain in his hand.

Zuo Ji was pushed away by him, he was not embarrassed, but still curious, asked: "Did you go to Yicheng to see a doctor?"

"Yes, my adoptive father is unwell and has been ill for a long time. I found out that there is a famous hidden doctor in Yicheng named Zhang Xian, so I specially took my adoptive father on a long trip to seek medical advice from him."

Zhang Xian?

Zuo Ji thought about it, and said to Li Xi, "Is it..."

"Yes." Li Xi nodded, and finally, to Bai Mayan: "What a coincidence, I know him as an old man, so I can introduce him to you."

"Oh?" Bai Mayan was very pleasantly surprised when he heard that.

He asked Li Xi: "I don't know what to call Xiongtai?"

"Li Xi."

"So it's Young Master Li."

Bai Mayan bowed his hands to Li Xi: "My adoptive father is going to take care of you, brother, and Baima will definitely thank you."

"It's a trivial matter, thank you so much that you don't need to mention it." Li Xi said: "It's just that this old man does things as he pleases. Between you and him, I only recommend him, and the rest depends on your medical relationship."

"It's natural."

Just as Bai Mayan responded, the old man in the carriage coughed again.

Everyone's attention was drawn again.

I just heard the old man say: "Ah Yan, cough...cough...we still don't...cough...please trouble these two gentlemen...cough..."

"But foster father..."

"Not troublesome, not troublesome." The old man pushes and hides like this, which makes Zuo Ji very curious.

He was playful, smiled slyly, put his arms around his chest, pretended to be indifferent, bypassed Bai Mayan, and said to the old man in the carriage, "Why are you always so polite?"

As soon as he stepped forward, the old man became nervous.

Sure enough, he was full of thoughts and wanted to lift the curtain again.

As soon as he made a move, he was caught by the sharp-eyed Bai Mayan.

He froze slightly, turned his face away, and Bai Mayan was staring at him with dissatisfaction, and the two of them just looked at each other for 0.01 second, when his face suddenly moved towards Bai Mayan.

Bai Mayan was suddenly puzzled, and frowned: "What are you doing?"

"I think you look familiar." As soon as Zuo Ji said it, Li Xi pulled him away.

Looking at Li Xi's eyes, he was very unhappy, Zuo Ji was quite innocent, and finally asked him in a low voice: "Don't you think this person is a bit like Mo Jia?"

Therefore, Li Xi glanced at Bai Mayan.

At the end, with a faint smile, he said to Bai Mayan, "I'm sorry."

He turned to the old man in the carriage: "Old Baima, he is ignorant and offended you, please don't mind."

The old man laughed, and immediately coughed again.

After finally recovering his breath, the old man said, "...it's okay."

"But...cough...cough...my surname is not Baima, but Huang."

Hearing this, Li Xi knew what he was doing, the corners of his mouth lightly raised, and he cupped his hands: "Yes, old man Huang."
