This seat is a villain

Xue Yao also kept an eye on Wei Ziyao's movements throughout the night.He took out the Yinsi bird from his arms, flicked the paper bird's head lightly, and the bird stood up from his palm with a wag, and flew towards Wei Ziyao's room against the wall.

Almost instantly, Xue Yao saw the picture in Wei Ziyao's room.The dandy sat at the table for half the night, during which Lin Jinhuan's people brought him the fish he wanted to eat.But Wei Ziyao didn't buy it, and after sitting for a while, he was so angry that he kicked his shoes and went to bed.

Xue Yao could hear Wei Ziyao snoring faintly throughout the night, and occasionally he could hear him waking up at night.

But early the next morning, Wei Ziyao disappeared out of thin air.

At this moment, Wei Ziyao was no longer in the room, but "Wei Ziyao" in Xue Yao's Yinsi Bird was still washing and changing clothes in an orderly manner.Xue Yao raised his eyebrows, thinking that he really underestimated this dude in the past.

"We stayed here all night last night and didn't leave for a moment. This morning, I saw through the crack of the door that he had already got up, and then I went in to inform him that he was ready to leave. Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, there was no one in the room."

When Xue Yao came over, Lin Jinhuan had already arrived. In Wei Ziyao's room, there was a crowd of people kneeling on the ground, and it was Jing Lan who was speaking at this time.

"Please take care of your subordinate's crime of dereliction of duty." Jing Lan clasped his fists in salute, buried his head even lower, and the rest of the people also bowed down when they heard the words.

Lin Jinhuan neither asked Jing Lan and the others to get up, nor was he in a hurry.He turned around in the room, opened the window and looked out, finally turned around and ordered in an orderly manner: "Jing Lan takes people to the Queshan Inn to investigate, be careful, and don't miss any clues. Jing Fan is in charge. Lead people to search within a ten-mile radius of this place, and be careful to keep a low profile. Jing Yi went to the town to make unannounced visits to any Jianghu forces that have been haunting here recently. Jing Li led people to secretly watch the various entrances and exits of Xinjiang Town, and report any suspicious people immediately."

"Yes!"

Everyone in Jiutianmen said in unison.

"Go." Lin Jinhuan waved his hand, and everyone took orders to split up and act separately. Only Lin Jinhuan and Xue Yao were left in the room.

Lin Jinhuan was under the round table in Wei Ziyao's room, and asked Xiaoer to go to his room to get his chessboard.

"No wonder everyone wants to be the leader of the faction." Xue Yao went around and sat down on Luohan's bed, jokingly said: "Let the subordinates go around and play chess by themselves."

Lin Jinhuan set up the chess game and said without raising his head, "Who said I'm idle, am I guarding the most suspected person?"

What Lin Jinhuan said seemed to be true, Xue Yao laughed when he heard it, he got up and walked around the room as if he didn't care, squatted in front of a pile of seemingly irregular stone branches and looked at it for a while, and asked : "Is this the eye of the array?"

Lin Jinhuan followed Xue Yao's gaze and said, "Yes, he should have left early last night. He used these things to show us blindfolds all night."

"Although his formation is exquisite, once someone comes to talk to him, his flaws will be exposed." With nothing to do, Xue Yao simply squatted on the ground and studied the formation left by Wei Ziyao.

"So he deliberately caused you and me to doubt yesterday, and bought himself some time to be alone." Lin Jinhuan said.

Xue Yao fiddled with the formation for a while, but he didn't come up with any tricks for a long time.He stood up dispiritedly, and seeing Lin Jinhuan playing chess as if nothing had happened, he gloated and asked Lin Jinhuan, "How does the sect master feel about being pecked by a bird?"

"Isn't Xue Zuo envoy also enlightened?" Lin Jinhuan took a moment to glance at the yin bird lying on the ground in the corner, meaning something.

Xue Yao hooked his fingers, and the limp little paper bird stood up again and jumped at Xue Yao cheerfully. Xue Yao picked it up and stuffed it back into his arms, and then said, "I don't think so."

Lin Jinhuan thought so, and said, "Let's wait for news from Jing Lan and the others first."

Jing Yi was the first to come back.

Since Xinjiang Town is close to Lin'an, and at the foot of Xiaoque Mountain, a famous mountain and river, there are many people coming and going, and there are many sects in Jianghu.

The Longevity Palace, the head of the Four Great Immortal Gates, is located in Lin'an. Recently, the Longevity Palace is hosting the "Bamboo Forest Talk". "Bamboo Forest Talk" can be regarded as a flourishing event among the immortal sects. It is presided over by the four major immortal sects in turn. The theme of each year is different, but the main function is to connect the masters of the various sects, and the sects strengthen the connection and exchange information.

This year's theme is Debate.There are tens of thousands of fairy gates in Kyushu, and there are not ten thousand or nine thousand patriarchs who dance swords and swords every day and are illiterate. They can't read Buddhist scriptures, let alone comprehend the profound meaning of philosophy.Therefore, "debating scriptures" is just a pretext. As a close friend of Master Jingming, the Master of Changsheng Palace presided over the "Bamboo Forest Talk" mainly to stabilize people's hearts, and called on all the sects of immortal families to help Little Chang'an Temple overcome difficulties. In the meantime, black hands.

It implies beating to warn those who are interested, and to protect the Little Chang'an Temple.

So during this period of time, there are also many sects coming and going to Lin'an.Some sincerely want to help Little Chang'an Temple, some want to take the opportunity to establish a relationship with Changsheng Palace, and some are hypocritical and contradictory.

What is intriguing is that most of the sects that ambushed Lin Jinhuan and his party during this period sent people to participate in the "Bamboo Forest Talk" in the Palace of Longevity.According to Jing Yi's investigation results, these sects have been severely damaged by the confrontation in the past few days, and they have not appeared in Xinjiang Town in the past few days.

Finding out which one of so many sects is related to Wei Ziyao is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.

Jing Fan also came back in the afternoon, and Jing Fan's team secretly searched the main street with a radius of ten miles around the inn, but found nothing.

The last one to come back was Jing Lan, who brought something back from the Queshan Inn.

"What does he mean?"

Jing Lan glanced at the things on the table, then at Lin Jinhuan and Xue Yao, and asked.

The expressions of the two of them at this time were a little unpredictable.

What was placed on the table was Wei Ziyao's heirloom little golden lock, which Jing Lan led people to search from under the bed of a guest room in Queshan Inn today.This golden lock has a pig with a familiar big hole in its face.

There is a strange red pattern on the back of the golden lock. This pattern is not like the original one, but it seems that someone painted it later.This pattern has a gloomy coolness, which is incompatible with the festive little golden pig.

Jing Lan carefully studied this pattern on the way back. This pattern was drawn with blood and mainly composed of three rings.Three rings drawn with blood form a circle, followed by a small tail.At a glance, you can tell that it is not a good thing that symbolizes auspiciousness.

Lin Jinhuan picked up the golden lock and looked at it carefully for a while, feeling vaguely familiar with the pattern.

Xue Yao, who had been sitting on the sidelines without speaking since just now, suddenly took out an object from his arms, and threw it on the table with a "bang", which shocked Jing Lan, who was immersed in his own thoughts, with a shock.

Jing Lan held the object in front of his eyes and found that it was a small wooden sign.On one side of the wooden sign was written the three characters "Bamboo Forest Realm", under which was engraved a symbol that was exactly the same as that on the golden lock, and on the other side of the wooden sign was engraved the word "Xue Yao".

That was Xue Yao's badge.

Lin Jinhuan's gaze then fell on the waist card, but he only stayed there for a moment.He looked away as if stung by the word "Xue Yao" engraved on the waist card.

Lin Jinhuan pondered for a moment, then said, "He was taken away by people from the Bamboo Forest Realm."

"Yes, and he is asking us for help through the pig card." Xue Yao took the waist card from Jing Lan's hand and put it in his arms, thinking a little self-deprecatingly, what are you talking about "you and us" at this time.Now that Wei Ziyao is being taken away by Zhulin Jing, Lin Jinhuan is not sure how to doubt him.

Jing Lan didn't expect that Mr. Xue had such an identity, and was secretly surprised.He looked up at Lin Jinhuan's face, saw that he didn't have any special reaction, temporarily suppressed his doubts in his heart, and asked, "But he left on his own, why did he leave a signal?"

Xue Yao didn't answer Jing Lan's question, and sat aside silently alone, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Jinhuan glanced at Xue Yao, and said to Jing Lan: "Now that I think about it, going to Lin'an is just a cover for Wei Ziyao. In fact, his goal from the beginning was Xinjiang Town. He is a man who doesn't work hard. With the technique of door dunjia, it is absolutely impossible to go on the road alone after getting rid of us, he must have arranged for someone he trusts to wait here early in the morning."

"He used us to get here safely, and then deliberately designed to throw us away?" Jing Lan heard some tricks.

Lin Jinhuan nodded, indicating that Jing Lan was right.He went on to say: "He knows that we are not much better than the people who chased and killed him. We have plots against him, and we are not righteous knights who are willing to retire after delivering him safely to Lin'an."

Jing Lan felt that he admired the sect master a little at this moment, and he was able to take it for granted that he had plotted against him frankly and frankly.

"But..." After Lin Jinhuan said so much, Jing Lan felt that his most puzzling question had not been solved yet.

Lin Jinhuan continued: "Wei Ziyao is suspicious and thoughtful by nature, so he has made two preparations."

Jing Lan thought back on Wei Ziyao's usual demeanor, and really couldn't agree with the door owner's evaluation that "Wei Ziyao is suspicious and thoughtful by nature".

Can a person really do such a thing?

Lin Jinhuan didn't notice Jing Lan's careful thinking, and continued, "He mentioned Queshan Inn repeatedly as soon as he arrived in Xinjiang Town. If we stay in Queshan Inn as he intended, and things go smoothly according to his plan, at this moment He should have left quietly. If the news leaks and the person who came is not what he arranged, he can turn his face on the spot. At that time, we will definitely think that it is an ambush as usual, and we will solve the team for him. People and horses will escort him all the way to Lin'an."

After Wei Ziyao arrived in Lin'an, he had to find another chance to get rid of Lin Jinhuan. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was not impossible for him to do it with his ability, and he could guarantee his life along the way.

But Lin Jinhuan did not like Wei Ziyao's intention to stay in the Queshan Inn, so Wei Ziyao repeatedly mentioned the Queshan Inn to make Lin Jinhuan suspicious, ensuring that Lin Jinhuan would send someone to the Queshan Inn to search for clues after he disappeared.

If Wei Ziyao's trip goes well, the Queshan Inn will not leave any traces, and Jing Lan will probably return empty-handed today.But at this moment, Jing Lan brought back the golden lock, which showed that things did not go according to Wei Ziyao's plan.

Who would have been arranged to take care of Wei Ziyao, and how could he have been thrown into the cross by the bamboo forest environment.

Lin Jinhuan thought about it, and glanced at Xue Yao who had been silent since just now.Xue Yao was sitting alone under the window at the moment, looking sideways out of the window with a gloomy expression.

Jing Lan didn't notice the abnormal atmosphere. He sorted out Lin Jinhuan's words and asked, "Since we now know that Wei Ziyao fell into the hands of the bamboo forest realm, where should we go to find his whereabouts?"

"Xiaoqueshan." Xue Yao turned around suddenly and said, "There is a sub-altar in the bamboo forest on Xiaoqueshan. I used to be in charge of the educational affairs of the sub-altar of Xiaoqueshan for a period of time."

Lin Jinhuan was a little surprised when he heard the words, but he was not surprised that there was a branch of the Bamboo Forest on Xiaoque Mountain.The power of Bamboo Forest in Kyushu should not be underestimated, and it is not surprising that they have their strongholds wherever they are.He was just surprised that Xue Yao told him this so easily.

"It's strange that I will tell you?" Xue Yao looked at Lin Jinhuan's face with raised eyebrows and said, "I can also tell you that Wei Ziyao ran away at night and the city gate was not open at that time, and you sent people in various places early this morning. The big entrance is waiting, as long as your man is not blind, it is impossible for him to be taken out of the city."

Xue Yao stood up, walked in front of Lin Jinhuan and continued, "It's very likely that Zhulin Jing knows that you are in Xinjiang Town. For the sake of safety, they dare not transfer Wei Ziyao away under your nose. It's really not suitable for a small body to climb mountains, so it's the best choice to hide in the nearest branch and wait for you to leave before making plans."

Jing Lan listened carefully, he felt that Xue Yao's analysis made sense.But he didn't understand what Xue Yao's position was now, whether he was an enemy or a friend, and he couldn't fully believe Xue Yao's conclusion.

"Then let's go next..." Jing Lan originally wanted to ask Lin Jinhuan for his next plan, but he glanced at Xue Yao and couldn't help but feel scruples.

If what Xue Yao said is true, then their whereabouts have already been leaked to the bamboo forest environment. If anyone can do this, isn't there a left envoy of the bamboo forest environment in front of him?

Lin Jinhuan didn't answer Jinglan's words, he looked at the golden lock on the table and didn't know what he was thinking.

Xue Yao saw Lin Jinhuan's attitude in his eyes, and he was already concerned about it.If Lin Jinhuan decides that he was the one who obstructed it, he will not be kind in the future.Xue Yao didn't want to get too entangled with Jiutianmen anymore. The connection between him and Shaoshi Xue Yao, as well as those specious future and past events, can only be explored when there is a chance in the future.

Standing at the round table, Xue Yao looked down at the symbol on the golden lock, then looked up at Lin Jinghuan, smiled calmly and said, "It's not suitable for you and me to go together now, so I'll take my leave first, whoever finds Wei Ziyao first Let’s do what we can.”

As soon as the words fell, his figure flashed towards the door like lightning.
