He swallowed the roast chicken in his mouth without chewing it, panting nervously.
Yun Xiaoning comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, I don't mean any harm. It's just that the year of this iceberg snow seed should not be something passed down from ancestors. Recently, things about immortality are very dangerous, so this I only asked one more question because I was afraid it would bring you trouble."
When the young man heard this, he looked at Yun Xiaoning carefully, struggling in his heart.
After a long time, he finally said, "Grandpa brought this thing back from outside. When he came here, he told me that once he takes it, he can't take it back. Although this thing is valuable, it is a disaster."
Yun Xiaoning comforted him and said, "Don't worry, no one will know if this thing does it. Even if they want it, they will only come to the medical center to cause trouble."
Thinking of the brocade box that appeared last time.
is also like this.
As soon as I got it back, the news spread, attracting people from all walks of life.
Today's Qianshan Snow Seed is much more valuable than that brocade box, and it is also one of the medicines needed in forbidden arts.
Someone might come to seize it at some point, so be sure to send more people and be careful.
She asked softly: "What's your name?"
The young man replied thoughtfully: "My name is Xiaofeng."
He wrapped the remaining roast chicken, stuffed it into his arms, and said to Yun Xiaoning: "Sister, give me the money, I have to go home."
Yun Xiaoning said with a smile: "How can you, a child, handle so many banknotes? I'll take you back."
Xiaofeng thought about it for a while, and it made some sense, so he nodded in agreement.
Yun Xiaoning, Xiaocui and Xiaofeng got into the carriage.
After walking for a while, turning left and right, I finally arrived at a small alley, which is where beggars gather in Kyoto.
The people standing at the door were all leaning on crutches and holding a broken bowl in their hands. When they saw the gorgeous carriage coming in, they stepped forward and surrounded the carriage.
The crutch in his hand hit the ground and made a thumping sound.
Holding the bowl in his dirty hands, he moved towards the carriage door more and more.
"Okay, okay."
"Give me some reward, ma'am!"
The driver in front saw this formation for the first time and was instantly frightened.
He stammered and said to the car: "Madam, what should I do? I heard that beggars can eat people when they are hungry!"
Yun Xiaoning opened the door curtain a crack and looked at the scene outside the window, feeling worried.
Xiaofeng quickly said: "I'm coming!"
He stretched out his head and pushed the broken bowl hanging on his body towards the carriage curtain.
The eerie noise disappeared instantly.
The leader winked at everyone.
Everyone became like birds and beasts and dispersed.
The carriage continued to move forward, and the narrow alley that was full of beggars just now was cleared.
Yun Xiaoning glanced at Xiaofeng inquiringly: "You are so young, but you are actually the boss here?"
Xiaofeng scratched his head in embarrassment: "How can I be the boss of a beggar gang? Sister is joking."
He shook the broken bowl in his hand playfully and said, "They recognize the bowl but not the person. Grandpa asked me to bring it out."
Yun Xiaoning became more and more curious about this mysterious grandfather.
It seems that this grandfather's identity is very unusual.
The carriage sped away, and the smile on Xiaofeng's face grew wider.
"Sister, with money, grandpa's illness will be cured, and we won't have to suffer from hunger anymore. Grandpa said that we will buy a big yard and have delicious food."
Yun Xiaoning was amused by his serious look.
Finally, the carriage stopped.
The three people got out of the carriage.
The door was open, and a lantern with a hole in it lay quietly on the ground.
Xiaofeng's face suddenly changed and he shouted loudly: "Grandpa!"
Yun Xiaoning's heart skipped a beat.
They're late!
The three of them hurried into the yard.
It was a mess inside.
Xiaofeng ran into the house and opened the door. The earthen kang where grandpa was originally lying was now empty.
He opened things in the house in a panic and shouted in a sad voice: "Grandpa! Grandpa..."
No one responded.
After searching for a long time, there was no trace. Yun Xiaoning and Xiao Cui looked at each other and stepped forward to comfort them: "Xiao Feng, it seems that the home is not very safe anymore. How about you go back with your sister first?"
Xiaofeng wiped her tears, shook her head and said, "No, sister, I have to wait here for grandpa to come back."
Yun Xiaoning sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's not safe for you to stay here."
While talking, Yun Xiaoning looked up and accidentally saw a drag mark under the closet opposite, as if it had just been moved.
She frowned slightly, walked around Xiaofeng, walked to the closet, and checked it carefully.
The marks on the ground were very new. Following the lines, it seemed that the closet should have been moved away, and then moved back entirely.
Yun Xiaoning pushed the closet gently, but without using any force, the closet was moved away.
Then a piece of fresh mud leaked onto the wall.
The wall was still dripping with water stains.
Yun Xiaoning had an idea that even she didn't want to believe.
She desperately scraped the new mud on the wall with her hands.
Seeing this, Xiao Cui and Xiao Feng stopped talking, and Yun Xiaoning began to peel off the new mud on the wall.
After a while, I heard Xiaofeng tremblingly touching the new mud wall: "The hand...is grandpa's hand!"
The words just fell.
There was a "click" sound.
Half of a hand with five fingers missing hung down from the new mud wall.
Yun Xiaoning's breath froze.
This half of the palm was hanging on the wall, which completely confirmed what I had just thought.
She yelled: "Dig quickly, maybe we can be saved!"
Xiaofeng's face was full of tears as she scratched the new mud wall, and her hands moved faster.
Soon, a human figure appeared on the wall.
Xiaofeng knelt on the ground sobbing, helplessly wailing: "Grandpa!"
Yun Xiaoning put her hand on the clay figure's nose and found that there was still a faint breath. She shouted in surprise: "There is still breath!"
Several people hurriedly pulled the clay figure off the wall.
Yun Xiaoning opened his nostrils, cleaned his mouth, took out a life-saving pill from his arms, and stuffed it directly into it.
"Go and boil some hot water!" Yun Xiaoning ordered.
Xiaofeng hurriedly went out to boil a large pot of hot water.
Soon, the old man finally breathed a sigh of relief under Yun Xiaoning's rescue.
He struggled to open his eyes and looked at Xiaofeng, who had an anxious look on his face, and burst into tears.
He raised his hand to touch Xiaofeng's face, but he didn't have the strength.
"ah!"
"Ahh!!!"
He opened his mouth wide, but only made a whimpering sound.
Only then did Yun Xiaoning realize that the old man in front of him didn't seem to be able to speak.
Xiaofeng and Grandpa communicate through sign language.
Seeing that his grandfather had woken up, Xiaofeng knelt on the ground with a pop and started kowtowing to Yun Xiaoning: "Thank you sister for saving my life!"
"Grandpa said that his end was approaching. Although my sister took precious life-saving pills, she could only hold on for a few days."
Yun Xiaoning looked at the old man in front of her in shock. Even she didn't realize the current situation.
He is actually an extraordinary person!
Seeing Xiaofeng take out the exquisite wooden box, Yun Xiaoning's heart beat faster and faster.
If she guessed correctly, this wooden box was very similar to the wooden box for forbidden books that she had obtained from bandits before, and there seemed to be some connection.
Yun Xiaoning held her breath, watching the delicate wooden box being handed to her by Xiaofeng, and turned her head to look at the old man next to her in disbelief.
Her eyes darkened, and just as she stretched out her palm on the wooden box, she suddenly saw Kunshan Shishou's expression change.
He threw himself on the ground with a solemn expression, put his ears close to it, and raised his index finger to his lips, making a silent gesture.
Yun Xiaoning quickly signaled Xiaofeng to put away the exquisite wooden box.
Tiptoeing to the window, he looked through the cracked gap and saw several unfamiliar figures outside the courtyard door moving quickly towards the door.
Yun Xiaoning signaled Xiaofeng and Xiaocui to hide, while she hid behind the door and picked up a wooden stick.
Staring nervously at the door.
Suddenly, screams were heard one after another outside the door.
"ah!"
"ah!!!"
Before Yun Xiaoning could react, he saw the slender figure of Ren's young director Zhiyuan staggering into the yard.
His body and face were covered in blood, and his sleeves were torn. It looked like he was being hunted.
Yun Xiaoning quickly opened the door and lowered her voice and shouted softly: "Come to the house quickly!"
Ren Zhiyuan heard the sound, raised the long sword that was cut in half in his hand, and waved it around in fear.
Turning his head and seeing Yun Xiaoning's anxious face, he paused, then dropped the half-length sword on the ground and staggered towards the house.
Yun Xiaoning opened the door, pulled him in, and quickly carefully inspected the bloody areas on Ren Zhiyuan's body.
After confirming that it was all someone else's blood, he relaxed and asked.
"How is this going?"
Ren Zhiyuan gasped in shock and said: "I went to the hospital to look for you, and I heard the servants say that you left with a child. The days have been rough recently, so I followed here with some personal help. I didn't expect that just now When I inquired about the door, I saw a group of men in black ambushing at the door, and they started fighting with each other."
All of Yun Xiaoning's attention was focused on the men in black at the door. She quickly asked, "Who are those people?"
"Is there any special mark!?"
She suddenly remembered the human skin mark that day, and suddenly stood up, wanting to go out and find out.
Ren Zhiyuan grabbed her: "It's very chaotic outside now. Let's wait a little longer. I won't come back."
Go, someone will come to us soon! "
Yun Xiaoning looked at Xiaofeng shivering beside him and the old man lying down, and agreed.
No one noticed that the old man's eyes suddenly showed a hint of clarity.
Only he could hear that although Ren Zhiyuan looked extremely panicked on the surface, in fact, his footsteps were chaotic and steady, and he spoke nervously and intermittently, but he made almost all the important points.
The most important thing is that he can hear Ren Zhiyuan's heartbeat, which is not fast at all. In other words, he is pretending to be panicked!
He secretly glanced at Ren Zhiyuan, but his heartbeat stopped at this moment.
The corners of Ren Zhiyuan's mouth raised slightly, and he was staring at himself with sympathy from the corner of his eyes!
The old man's heart skipped a beat!
He was indeed pretending.
At this time, Yun Xiaoning had already taken the exquisite wooden box over.
Just wanted to open it.
Suddenly a sharp voice came: "Wait!"
