Lu Jing didn't know why the topic suddenly turned to solving the case.
Moreover, I heard that the other party did not just want to have fun, but intended to establish a stable and long-term cooperative relationship with him.
But the question is, does solving these cases mean anything to Granny Sugar? It's not like she works in Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment. It's understandable that she can play around once or twice and get a taste of it. What's the purpose of always thinking about solving the case?
As if she could see the doubts in Lu Jing's heart, Granny Tang then added, "Anyway, I have lived in the capital for so many years, and I have feelings for this city. Naturally, I hope that this place can become better."
Lu Jing was noncommittal.
So Granny Tangren continued, "Don't worry, I will only come to you for cases related to weird objects. You are from Si Tianjian, and investigating cases related to weird objects should also be within your scope of responsibilities." , and once the case is solved, Si Tianjian will distribute rewards.
"You want those rewards?"
"No, no, no, those rewards are all yours. I just hope that the place where I live can always be safe. What do you think?"
"Why choose me?"
"Because of my identity... I can't contact Si Tianjian directly." The reason given by Granny Tangren is quite good. "I can be responsible for collecting intelligence, just like when we first met, I told you where there is something strange. It’s a weird thing, and you just need to rush over and deal with that weird thing.”
"Sorry, I'm not interested in this matter. You should go find someone else." Lu Jing shook his head, waved to Amu who was standing aside, and prepared to get off the carriage.
And his answer also stunned the sweet man's mother-in-law.
"Don't make a decision so quickly. Why don't you... go back and think about it first."
"There's nothing to consider. Please help me tell Granny Sugar that if she really wants to cooperate with me, she can do it herself and find a stand-in to pretend to be her. It's hard not to doubt whether her so-called cooperation has ulterior motives."
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he walked out of the carriage without waiting for another reply. After Amu also got off, he closed the door politely.
The astonished "Candy Granny" was left alone in the carriage.
…………
After a lot of work, he still couldn't get Amu to speak. Lu Jing felt very unhappy, and even the joy of breaking the ice with Yan Yun was washed away a lot.
But no matter how unhappy it is, life must go on.
Especially on the way back, Amu patted Lu Jing's back with his short hand, which also dispelled a lot of the haze in Lu Jing's heart.
So in the next two days, Lu Jing took Amu with him to Baima County to look for the sword.
At the beginning, Lu Jing's main scope of activities was still within the county town, but as the county town was cleared out, he later ran outside the city.
Now he is running further and further, and has reached an inaccessible place.
However, on the second day after taking Amu with him, Lu Jing finally recovered. In the evening, the Si Nan in his hand had a reaction.
He followed the direction indicated by Sinan and finally found a dry well.
Lu Jing walked around the dry well and found that the handle of the spoon on Si Nan also turned around.
I suddenly felt happy, it seemed like this was it!
This place is not easy to find. It is already a hundred miles away from Baima County, and it is still in a dense forest. No wonder both those who came to search two hundred years ago and others who bought information to try their luck later are looking for it. Less than.
If it weren't for Si Nan who had this one in his hand, Lu Jing would never have been able to find it.
And when he looked down, he only saw a thick layer of fallen leaves at the bottom of the well, and no shadow of the flying sword.
However, Lu Jing was not in a hurry. He first tied the rope he brought to a big tree, then grabbed the other end of the rope and jumped into the dry well.
The moment he landed, his legs were immediately submerged by fallen leaves.
Fortunately, after reaching the waist, Lu Jing's body finally did not sink any further.
Then Lu Jing reached out and started groping through the pile of fallen leaves.
After a while, he felt his fingers hit something hard. When he picked it up, he found it was a rusty dagger.
Although it was a bit regretful that it was not Feijian, the unique eye of Si Tianjian on the back of the sword also reminded Lu Jing that he was getting closer to his target.
So Lu Jing continued his efforts, groped for a while, and caught something hard again. This time, it felt much rougher. When he lifted it up, he found it was a bone.
Judging from the shape and size, it should be human.
"Is this the remains of senior Xin Daofu?"
Unfortunately Bones would not answer.
But judging from the dagger from Si Tianjian that Lu Jing found earlier and the position of Si Nan, this bone most likely belonged to Xin Daofu, the third-level supervisor of Si Tianjian more than 200 years ago.
The opponent was Senior Si Tianjian, and it was Xin Daofu's flying sword that Lu Jing came to find this time.
Since you have inherited the kindness of others, it is also your duty to collect and bury the bones that have been exposed in the wild.
So Lu Jing didn't throw away the bone, but threw it into the well.
He just touched the willow branches in the moonlight in that dry well, and then fished out all the bones in the well. As for the small bones such as finger bones, he couldn't get enough, so he had to give up.
In addition, a small gray-black sword also appeared in Lu Jing's hand.
He glanced at the blade of the sword in the moonlight. There were two small characters engraved on it. They were unmistakable.
But it is in line with the old saying, there is no place to be found if you step on the iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get it.
Lu Jing successfully found this flying sword that had caused countless people to break through their iron shoes.
And he only spent a total of six Si Tianjian copper coins before and after, plus more than ten days.
This business couldn't be more profitable!
It also made Lu Jing make up his mind that when there are copper coins in the future, he must buy all the information related to Feijian from Shopkeeper Jin.
With the sword-seeking Sinan in his arms, is he still worried about not being able to find those flying swords in the intelligence?
Of course, this is all a thing for another day. For Lu Jing now, having the fourth flying sword means that he has more time for free activities, and he basically no longer has to worry about running out of secret power in his body.
It greatly relieved his secret power anxiety.
Lu Jing didn't hesitate and immediately sacrificed the stubborn stone.
Looking at the new sword spirit appearing in the bridal palace, I felt refreshed.
Then Lu Jing's eyes moved to the pile of bones. He picked up most of Xin Daofu's bones, and Lu Jing even put them together to roughly create a human shape.
I was planning to wrap it in cloth and take it back to the academy for burial.
But the next moment, his hand stopped in mid-air, because Lu Jing discovered that there was a scratch on one of Xin Daofu's back ribs that looked like a sharp weapon.
