Three days later, the sky was clear.
An inconspicuous carriage slowly drove out of the city gate.
Jiang Wuji, dressed as an ordinary knight in the world, was sitting in the front room of the carriage, holding the reins in his hand.
The Nine Tribulations of Tianmen need to be carried out in secret, and it is common for knife holders to help solve unsolved cases in various places.
Therefore, there was no one to see him off when he left Beijing this time.
On the city gate sub-tower, a large flag embroidered with the word "Li" flutters in the wind.
King Luo was wearing a long skirt, standing with his hands behind his back, letting the flowing wind stir up his black hair and belt. His pair of water-cut eyes did not know whether he was looking at the early sun or the distant streak of yellow dust.
"Your Highness clearly wanted to give Jiang Yin Dao, why didn't you show up?" Qing He Rourou asked.
"Ha..." The fat-headed fish slightly raised its jade-like chin, instantly giving off the aura of a domineering female president.
"I personally sent Yin Dao off, is that right?"
Qinghe: "Hey~"
At this moment, a figure that was indistinguishable from King Luo came from one side.
Although the visitor was wearing an ink Taoist robe, the overall look was very loose. In addition, with a pair of bare jade-like feet, it seemed that... he was really only wearing a Taoist robe...
King Luo frowned slightly: Not sure, let's have another look...
The empress walked like a cat, with slits on both sides of her robe revealing a piece of white jade from time to time.
She really didn't... King Luo couldn't help but said angrily: "This is not your imperial study... let alone your palace!"
"hehe……"
The empress took a wine gourd from her waist and took a sip.
"You know, I don't like to be restrained. No matter how well-woven my clothes and pants are, there will always be something... ahem~"
Hearing this, the corners of King Luo's ruddy mouth couldn't help but twitch: "What a shame! What a shame! Sister, those old stubborns are obstructing you because you are a daughter, so why don't you..."
"What else can I give you?"
The empress acted like a demon in her true colors, stepping forward and gently picking the fat-headed fish's chin.
"The city gate guards have been transferred. Apart from you, I am the only one here~"
Can't see me, can't see me... Qinghe didn't dare to speak.
King Luo sighed, not wanting to talk to his sister who likes to drive.
"Do you think he can find the Nine Tribulations of Tianmen?" the empress suddenly asked.
King Luo lowered his beautiful eyes slightly and did not answer.
She knew that Jiang Wuji was very capable, but things like Tianmen Nine Tribulations valued opportunities more.
If there is no chance, even if you hold the broken picture in your hand, it will be difficult to see the true appearance of the calamity statue. This is just like Ji Xinghai...
The fat-headed fish didn't say anything, and the empress thought to herself: "If he can really find the robbery statue this time, I will definitely reward him in person."
In person... Fat-headed fish suddenly thought of something and immediately reminded: "Sister, you must remember to wear the clothes you should wear when the time comes."
"Hmm~"
…
"Da da da……"
Amidst the sound of horse hooves, a small head poked out of the carriage.
"Why did you come out?"
Looking at Ji Xiaowan sitting next to him, Jiang Wuji asked casually.
Ji Xiaowan did not respond immediately, but stretched out her green onion-like fingers to block the delicate but not restless Jin Yang.
"I've never been in a carriage before, so I'm not used to it."
"Have you ever ridden a horse?"
"What are you talking about? It's because I'm riding a horse that I can't get used to the carriage."
You didn't understand my point... Jiang Wuji curled his lips, feeling that the bumpy yellow mud road was a bit ridiculous.
Several times I thought they were going to jump out...
No, men can be romantic but must not be obscene!
In order to divert his attention, Jiang Wuji forced himself to look straight ahead.
"Wan'er, how many years have you been in the world?"
Ji Xiaowan was slightly startled by the sudden intimate nickname, but she didn't resist it in her heart.
"It's been three to five years."
"Tell me about Tingshui County?"
"Tingshui County..." Beiqi bit her red lips gently, and after thinking for a while, Ji Xiaowan spoke out.
"Although Tingshui County is only a county town, because the river is rich in aquatic products and leads directly to the sea, most people in the city make a living by fishing."
"The well-known Shuiyun Villa also started out as a fishery in its early years."
Jiang Wuji nodded and said, "I heard that Shuiyun Villa has a grandmaster in charge, can you beat him?"
The reason why he refused to send the golden knife to Fat-headed Fish was because he had to take the female thief with him, but Jiang Wuji couldn't really ignore his personal safety.
However, Ji Xiaowan glanced at Jiang Wuji strangely: "Don't you know the difference between masters?"
"Huh? What's the difference between masters?" Jiang Wuji really didn't know these things.
Ji Xiaowan tightened her collar, as if she was afraid of jumping out.
"Grandmasters are divided into three realms, first is insight, then is jade bone, and the last great master is called Huayi."
Insight, Jade Bones, Transformation of Intentions... It turned out that the grandmaster had these words, and Jiang Wuji was fascinated when he heard them.
"Lin Xiushan has insight. He probably hasn't touched the threshold of Jade Bones yet, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to destroy Qi Hai with your sword."
Ji Xiaowan continued: "Yun Zhiyang of Shuiyun Villa has been a grandmaster for more than ten years. Now he should be able to touch the threshold of jade bones even if he has not yet reached the level of jade bones."
Jiang Wuji: "What about you?"
Ji Xiaowan: "Shuiyun Villa is famous for its marksmanship. I heard that this marksmanship evolved from the older generation of spearfishing and is called Duanlang."
"What about you? What level of master are you?"
"I also heard that Tongtian stick Zhou Buyue joined Shuiyun Villa a few years ago and became a guest minister. His strength is only a little weaker than Yun Zhiyang."
"Wan'er, what kind of master are you?"
"Ouch! You are so annoying! I am insight, insight, insight!"
The female thief returned to the carriage angrily, leaving Jiang Wuji alone in the wind.
How did I offend her? Okay, okay... If you really don't fight for a day, go to the house to uncover the tiles?
Five days passed in a blink of an eye.
Tingshui County is affiliated to Linhai County and is located on the border of Youzhou.
The largest number of vendors in the city is aquatic products. The streets paved with bluestones are crowded with people, and the shouts are louder than the others.
"I'll sell the fish I just caught this morning for money!"
“Braised fish, Tingshui’s century-old brand!”
"Eels, eels that can drill holes..."
Jiang Wuji first found an inn and set up his carriage and belongings, and then he and the female thief joined together, each wearing a curtain hat, pretending to be a couple and quickly blended in.
After a while, the two came to an abandoned small house.
Most of the roof rubble collapsed, and the path outside the door was overgrown with weeds.
"Is this the fisherman's house?" Jiang Wuji asked in a deep voice.
The landscape painting undulates slightly, like a bright moon rising into the sky. After calming down, Ji Xiaowan responded.
"Um."
"After I learned that my father was in prison, I came to look for this family, but it turned out that they had already run away."
Jiang Wuji: "Have the neighbors asked about it?"
Ji Xiaowan: "I asked around, but they all said they didn't know. They probably left overnight."
It is also possible that he was silenced by the Minister of Rites...
Jiang Wuji secretly added, then raised his chin.
"Let's go in and take a look."
"Um."
Ji Xiaowan followed obediently.
