Peerless Protégé [Rebirth]

Chapter 19 Cloud Opening

When Luo Jiening and Zhong Zhili rushed to the crippled man's room, the man was already gone.Luo Jiening kicked the door open and cursed: "You bastard!"

Zhong Zhili looked inside the room, it was the same as when they came, the table had been cleaned up, the room seemed to be very big, and there were two other rooms inside which were locked, Luo Jiening just walked up He didn't kick it open, Luo Jiening kicked it a few more times, and finally cracked the door, the wooden door fell down with a bang, and the scene inside made Luo Jiening's eyes shine.

A few small tables were put together, with a few candles and a bed on it. It looked like the room where the cripple lived. Luo Jiening walked in, and there was a musty smell inside. Instead of sleeping, Luo Jiening frowned, stepped forward and kicked the bed board over.

Zhong Zhili: "..."

As soon as the bed board was lifted, a black jar with a lid was revealed inside, Luo Jiening pulled out his sword to lift off the lid, and leaned forward to look while holding his breath.

Zhong Zhili asked: "What is it?"

"It should be poison | medicine." Luo Jiening took it out and poured a little on the table, like water, but with a slight pungent smell.

He put down the jar, looked at the table, opened the drawer, and found that there was nothing in it, but there was no dust. He lowered his head and said, "Something was taken away."

Zhong Zhili went out to look at another room, and opened it with a push of his hand. He looked inside and said, "This is where Young Master Lan and Nan Wang live."

Luo Jiening went to the kitchen, and found that there was still a flour bag on the stove, and the flour in it was almost gone, Zhong Zhili asked from behind: "Did he put poison in the dough?"

Luo Jiening lifted the lid of the pot, and there were uncooked steamed buns on it, which were already cooked and exuded a tempting aroma. They were of different shapes, some were like rabbits, some were like frogs, and some were like tigers. lifelike.

Luo Jiening casually picked up one and stuffed it into his mouth, and handed the other to Zhong Zhili. Zhong Zhili asked, "Not poisonous?"

Luo Jiening shook his head and said, "I don't think it's possible to poison all of them."

Zhong Zhili lowered his head and took a bite. Luo Jiening walked around the kitchen half a circle, reached out and took a bun and gnawed on it. Seeing that Zhong Zhili had only eaten two bites, he couldn't help saying: "Hurry up and eat, we still have to catch up." He's going."

He turned around and came to a conclusion: "I don't think it's the steamed stuffed bun's problem. Nanwang must have stolen the wine. There's nothing wrong with the wine for Lan Mulin, but there's something wrong with the wine for us."

Zhong Zhili finished eating one, nodded and said, "Why did he run?"

Luo Jiening took two more buns casually, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I went out and haven't come back yet."

Zhong Zhili was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses. Just as he thought of leaving the kitchen, he heard a voice shouting: "My old lady, is this a thief?"

Luo Jiening hid behind the kitchen door, glanced at Zhong Zhili who was at the door, and both drew their swords out of their sheaths at the same time.

The lame man walked to the door of the kitchen, and just about to push the door open, Zhong Zhili stabbed at him with his sword. The man reacted so quickly that he dodged him. Luo Jiening kicked the wooden door open, and the man backed away A few steps surprised: "What are you two doing?"

Luo Jiening didn't talk nonsense with him, and stepped forward to stab at his left foot. The man stepped back sensitively, and kept firing: "Aren't you two young masters too rude?!"

Luo Jiening smiled and said, "Uncle, Mr. Lan was poisoned to death by you, do you have anything to say?"

The man was really surprised for a moment, and before he could speak, Zhong Zhili stabbed forward, the move was fatal, the man finally couldn't pretend anymore, he picked up the bamboo stick with his left foot to block forward, Luo Jiening slashed at him with a sword, the bamboo The outside of the stick was cracked, revealing a slender iron rod inside. Luo Jiening slashed at his left hand, as if holding a kitchen knife. Behind him, blocking his way back, he stabbed at his back, the man's iron rod blocked Zhong Zhili's sword, and before he could dodge in time, Luo Jiening stabbed him fiercely in the back, but the stab missed, his face His smile couldn't hold on any longer, he noticed the flour he had just bought, and immediately squatted down and threw the flour bag at Zhong Zhili, who quickly backed away.

Before Luo Jiening could react, the man had already turned around and hit him. Just as Luo Jiening wanted to fight back, the man flew along the wall and onto the roof. The iron rod poked a hole in the roof, and then flew up .

Luo Jiening jumped on the table and climbed up to the roof with his backhand and went up. Looking up, the man had disappeared. He was about to kick two feet, but found himself standing on the roof, so he gave up and jumped off.

As soon as he got off, he almost broke his leg——

That Zhong Zhili, dressed in black, has been dyed into a fairy by flour, and his black hair has turned into snow, he looks like a snow doll, he is wiping his face, Luo Jiening is almost mentally ill by his innocent smile, his legs can't stand still He leaned on the door frame and pointed at him and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, you are so similar to that so-and-so, that protégé who had a grudge against me in my previous life haha!"

"It's like a fairy coming down to earth!" Luo Jiening stopped laughing after being stared at by him, and said seriously, "Why are you so good-looking."

As he spoke, he stepped forward to help Zhong Zhili pat off the flour on his body, and said, "He ran away. I knew he must be not simple."

Zhong Zhili asked, "Why?"

Luo Jiening smiled and said: "When I saw him for the first time before, I saw that his hands were full of calluses. It couldn't be that he took out a bamboo pole. He should be using some kind of weapon that needs to be held in one hand. Sure enough, it was Iron rod."

Zhong Zhili thought about it for a moment, but he didn't expect him to observe so carefully, and then asked: "Is there any poison on him?"

Luo Jiening stretched out his hand to gently pat the flour off his hair, and said: "I think the one in his drawer should be the formula of poison|drug, he carries it with him."

Luo Jiening took pictures of him for a long time, but his hair was still half white, he couldn't help laughing and said: "That's it, it looks pretty good."

He walked into the room he entered before, filled a jug full of poison with the wine jug on his body, then took the jar out, sprinkled all the poison on the haystack in front of his door, and lit it. After turning on the fire, Zhong Zhili stood behind him and said, "It won't light if it's wet."

"Oh."

Luo Jiening said: "We bring it to someone to study the antidote, even if that person runs away, I'm afraid he will create other poison|drugs, let's go to Nan Wang first."

Zhong Zhili paused for a moment, then asked, "Why is that man pretending to be lame?"

Luo Jiening shook his head, took out the two buns he took from his bosom, handed one to him, and said, "I'm afraid it's hard to know."

Just as he was about to eat buns, he saw a dog galloping towards him in the distance. When he took a closer look, he realized that it was the dog that barked at him in the morning, and a thought occurred to him.

He waited for the dog to come to him, and threw the bun near his mouth, the dog immediately jumped a few times and bit the bun, Luo Jiening led it into the room, he ran into the room, kicked him just now The overturned bed board was grabbed back, and the quilt on it was picked up, and the dog sniffed it.

Zhong Zhili understood what he was going to do, and stood at the door waiting for him, Luo Jiening led the dog outside, and said: "Go, get that uncle back, I'll give you buns."

The big dog seemed to understand what he said, and ran out immediately.Luo Jiening sighed, "I didn't expect that he and I are quite destined."

Zhong Zhili glanced at him, and said silently: "They are quite related by blood."

Luo Jiening was not angry when he heard this, and leaned against him with a smile, looked at the bun in his hand and said, "If you don't want to eat it, let me eat it."

I thought he would not agree, but Zhong Zhili didn't hesitate and reached out his hand to him, which made Luo Jiening a little astonished, and said with a smile: "Are you so kind to me?"

Zhong Zhili just turned around and said, "Let's go find Nanwang now."

Luo Jiening followed behind him while eating, looking at his half-white hair, with a warm smile in his eyes, thinking to himself, if he really reached this age, would they still be able to have a leisurely relationship like this? What about walking together?

The two of them agreed with Nan Wang to be in a valley not far from the pond they separated from. When Luo Jiening and Zhong Zhili arrived, Nan Wang had already dug a hole and was just about to place Lan Mulin in it. Seeing that the two of them had arrived, Luo Jiening was about to ask Zhong Zhili what happened to that white hair, "Nan Wang, did you drink secretly?"

Nan Wang was momentarily stunned by what he said, not knowing how to answer.

Luo Jiening asked again: "Did you steal your uncle's wine? At noon today."

Nan Wang lowered his head and said, "I just took a sip."

Luo Jiening looked at Zhong Zhili with "what did I say" in his eyes, Nan Wang seemed to realize something, and immediately defended: "No! I drank secretly every day a few days ago, it's nothing question."

Zhong Zhili said: "The wine he poured us today was poisoned."

When Nan Wang heard this, his eyes widened immediately, his expression was full of disbelief, and he said, "How is this possible!"

Luo Jiening held the sword in his arms and said softly: "Your uncle, his lameness is fake, and the bamboo stick in his hand is an iron rod. Also, he hid a large pot of poison under his bed. Just now we In the past, he ran away."

Nan Wang took a few steps back in disbelief, and took off the kettle on his waist in a daze, Luo Jiening asked, "Is there wine in there?"

He said so on the lips, but secretly said in his heart, this Nan Wang is exactly the same as him when he was young, except that he is worse, it is no longer a matter of one or two kettles.

Nanwang Mulen nodded and said, "When I came out, I pretended secretly."

As he said that, he seemed to want to see if the wine was really poisonous, and when he opened it, Luo Jiening said coldly: "If you drink any more, no one can save you."

Nan Wang shook his hand and almost knocked off the kettle. Luo Jiening picked up a stone at his feet and kicked it over, knocking the kettle in his hand to the ground. All the wine in it was spilled. , Luo Jiening frowned.

Nan Wang suddenly knelt on the ground and murmured towards Lan Mulin's body: "Master told me not to drink alcohol, but I still drank secretly..."

Zhong Zhili glanced at Lan Mulin, feeling a little uncomfortable, and helped to cover Lan Mulin's body with soil. Lan Mulin's eyes were closed, and his expression was very peaceful, as if he was asleep. After waking up, Luo Jiening walked to Nan Wang's side, comforting him softly: "It's not you, but the person who made the poison."

Nan Wang looked up at Luo Jiening for a while, then shook his head and said, "I still don't believe that Uncle is such a person."

Luo Jiening sighed, and said, "Then, can you tell us how you ended up living in his house?"

Nan Wang glanced at Zhong Zhili who was covering Lan Mulin's body, wiped his tears with his sleeve, nodded vigorously and said, "Okay."
