Qi Wenren was speechless for a while when Bu Bull asked.
Bubule continued, "You are here to constantly sow discord between our father-in-law and son-in-law. Who is behind the scenes?"
"No, it's definitely not the case." Qi Wenren shook his head, but after saying that, he looked at the maids nervously.
Compared to Bubul's uprightness, his behavior seemed to be filled with evil intentions.
So Bubler completed three kills.
Qi Wenren also knew that he would not be able to ask anything else. It would only make him look more suspicious and even put the three of them in danger.
So he found a reason to end the confrontation in a hurry, and then left the hall in despair.
After going out, Qi Wenren apologized to Lu Jing, "I'm sorry, I should have listened to you before. I shouldn't have been so reckless and ruined a good situation."
"Sir Qi, no matter what you say, I think you have done a good job."
"What?" Qi Wenren was stunned. At first, he thought Lu Jing was sarcastic, but looking at the serious look on his face, he didn't think so.
So Qi Wenren also felt a little dizzy.
Then I heard Lu Jing say again, "Master Qi, isn't your trick of alerting the snake already effective? In the absence of evidence, this is already the best solution. Just now, you have already pointed out the divination in a subtle way. Bu Le's attack on Tong Qianxi was enough.
"If Bubler really has something on his mind, no matter how tough he acted before, he will definitely want to make sure that everything is correct afterwards."
Qi Wenren thought for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. So, his response just now was actually not that bad, or even quite powerful?
But Qi Wenren always felt that something was wrong.
Lu Jing has been getting along with Qi Wenren during this time, and he still likes this senior Si Tianjian. He doesn't know if people who are obsessed with research are relatively simple.
Qi Wenren did not know much about things other than secret power, and some aspects were just like a blank slate. For example, the fact that Lu Jing was on the Tianji List was already known to everyone in the Chen Dynasty.
This was actually the first time Qi Wenren heard about it, and he didn't even know about the other fancy things Lu Jing did.
According to Qi Wenren himself, he spent most of the past two years studying the seasonal changes in secret power at a secret realm in the Western Region, and he only came back recently.
But this time when the two came to Ganding County and learned that they might encounter a strange object, Qi Wenren stepped forward immediately and took over the matter even though he had no experience in investigating crimes.
It was also because he felt that as a senior, he would not let Lu Jing, a disciple of the academy, go first if he was in danger.
Seeing that his mentality was about to collapse, Lu Jing quickly poured him a few spoonfuls of chicken soup for the soul.
Moreover, Lu Jing was not just coaxing Qi Wenren. He really thought that he could try to scare the snake away without much evidence at hand. Otherwise, when Qi Wenren went up to confront Bubul, Lu Jing There was no reason not to stop him.
After being forcibly cleared by Lu Jing, Qi Wenren finally calmed down and began to think again after getting rid of the feeling of shame.
After pondering for a moment, he said, "Tricks like this are not easy to use, especially when dealing with a big shot like Tong Qianxi. In order to ensure success before taking action, we must conduct experiments first. We may also You can first check if anyone in the city has experienced a similar situation."
"Not bad." Lu Jing praised Qi Wenren sincerely this time.
He could see that Qi Wenren was growing up after experiencing the initial panic and talking on paper. After all, Qi Wenren was not stupid, he just lacked relevant experience.
Qi Wenren said, "Then let's divide our troops into two groups. I will keep an eye on Bubul. You can go around Ganding County to collect information on this aspect and ask Luo Yingying to follow you."
Lu Jing still wanted Luo Yingying to stay and help Qi Wenren. As for him, he could go out and hire another guide in the city. If that didn't work, he could also ask Luo Changshi to recommend someone else.
But he knew that if he didn't agree, Qi Wenren would definitely be worried about him running around alone.
So he could only nod his head and said, "Okay, if anything happens, please Master Qi, please make sure that the messenger contacts me as soon as possible."
"You too, be careful."
After Qi Wenren finished speaking, he took out a sachet and threw it to Lu Jing.
"This is a gadget I made. Take it with you. It should be able to help you a little."
"What is this sachet used for?" Lu Jing asked curiously after taking the sachet.
"Oh, this is something I researched myself. It can speed up your ability to absorb secret power from the outside world."
Lu Jing's hands trembled when he heard this and he almost dropped the sachet to the ground.
Qi Wenren was still urging, "Put it on quickly, you're welcome, remember to keep it close to your body, even if it's separated by clothing.
"Uh... Okay." Lu Jing couldn't refuse Qi Wenren's kindness.
He put the sachet into his sleeve, but placed it between two flying swords to ensure that the thing would not touch his skin.
After leaving Chief Tongtu's palace, Lu Jing immediately ran to the market, bought a small wooden box, and packed the sachet.
After that, he sold a big wooden box and put the small wooden box inside. After doing all this, Lu Jing felt a little at ease this time.
He was also a little puzzled. Aren't the pills and props that can increase the speed of absorbing secret power very rare? How come everyone he met had them on his body, and he insisted on stuffing them without saying a word. Give it to him without considering his feelings at all.
Lu Jing put away the wooden box and asked Luo Yingying on the side, "Who has the best information in Ganding County?"
Luo Yingying thought for a while, "Wuritu, he is a horse dealer, but as long as you pay enough, he is also willing to take on other messy jobs. He has many friends in the city. It is said that he is a high-ranking official and a noble, and he is willing to take on other messy jobs. There is no one among the three religions and nine schools who he does not know."
"Okay, then let's go find him." Lu Jing said, "Money is not an issue. I will definitely satisfy him."
Luo Yingying took Lu Jing to the restaurant where Wu Ritu often stayed, but the two did not see Wu Ritu there.
After asking around, I found out that Wu Ritu had just received a job not long ago and disappeared in a hurry.
So Luo Yingying and Lu Jing decided to wait for him, but Wu Ritu didn't show up until the afternoon. Lu Jing didn't want to wait any longer, so he left a message for Wu Ritu in the restaurant and asked Luo Yingying to take him. He went directly to Uritu's home.
But before he entered, he saw a group of people surrounding Wuritu's door.
Luo Yingying asked one of the old men what happened. The old man told her that Wu Ritu was dead. He didn't know why he couldn't think about it, so he hung himself in his yard.
