"No, no, no," Xifeng shook his head: "The Tantric Sect in southern Yunnan does have more monks practicing the Mandala Secret Seal, but the branch that drives Taotie is a single lineage. As early as two hundred years ago, this branch of the sect was

Under the leadership of Master Basiba, he moved to Jingchao to preach... This assassin came from Jingchao!"

Once the clues involve Jing Chao, the Secret Service must fight to the death.

Chen Ji's heart tightened. If the official who drove Taotie was really Xiaoman, then who taught her the ropes? Was it his biological mother?

Xifeng asked: "How is it, Mr. Chen, do you have any clues?"

Chen Ji thought for a moment: "I heard from the soldiers and horses that the female assassin was seriously injured. Why don't Lord Xifeng search various medical clinics and also search the medicine dealers."

Xifeng sighed: "I think so too, but I haven't gained much yet..."

Chen Ji turned sideways and asked with a smile: "Master Xifeng, do you want to search my yard?"

Xifeng hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "We are all one of our own, how can I search you? Mr. Chen, please go to bed early. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

Chen Jigong cupped his hands and said, "Then I won't waste Lord Xifeng's time."

Xifeng cupped his hands and returned the greeting: "Let's go, you can sleep in peace."

The courtyard door of Mingquan Garden slowly closed. Xifeng took a few steps and looked back at the closed wooden door suspiciously.

After a few breaths, he smiled and shook his head, holding the knife on his waist and searching elsewhere.

…

…

Chen Ji closed the courtyard door and breathed a sigh of relief.

He held the door latch with both hands and listened quietly to the sound of the west wind receding, then turned and returned to the house.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Su Zhou and Xiao Man standing by the window, seemingly peeking for a long time.

Su Zhou calmly asked: "You are an apprentice in a medical clinic, why are you familiar with the eunuch? What did you just say to him, and why is he so polite to you?"

Chen Ji looked shocked and said: "What do you mean, are you doubting me? My master once treated the internal minister's leg disease. After coming to Luo City, the eunuch also came to the hospital to get medicine for the internal minister.

We have become familiar with each other after going back and forth. If I want to betray you, why are you standing here talking now? I am helping you with good intentions, but how can you judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? "

Su Zhou thought that this was indeed the case.

However, the look on Secret Agent Hai Dongqing's face when he was facing Chen Ji just now didn't look like he was facing a young apprentice, but rather...a boss.

Chen Ji timidly said: "This heroine, I don't know what your relationship is with Prince Jing, and how you plan to avenge him, but I have done everything I should do. Tomorrow the Chen family will leave for the capital, and I just need to think about it.

I'll try to send you out of the city, and then we'll go our separate ways."

Su Zhou said calmly: "No."

Chen Ji shrank his neck: "What are you going to do? We are just ordinary people and cannot bear such a fright. Looking back on what happened just now, my calves are still soft."

Su Zhou slowed down his tone and said softly: "Thank you very much for saving Su Zhou. I will thank you deeply in the future. But since you have friendship with the palace, you will be a good person and send me to the capital. How about sending me to the capital? The prince once asked me

I came to find you, but now I have no one I can trust."

Xiaoman on the side said hurriedly: "Master, don't agree to this fierce woman..."

But before she finished speaking, Su Zhou took out a copper coin from his hair and quietly stuffed it into Xiaoman's hand. Xiaoman's eyes lit up and he suddenly closed his mouth.

Chen Ji walked to the table and poured himself a cup of tea. With his back to the two of them, his expression gradually calmed down.

After a long time, he drank all the tea in the cup and made a decision in his heart.
