Chapter 192 Under the Hanging Temple

Chapter 192 Under the Hanging Temple
"Master Zheng." The student with a hanging voice respectfully bowed to Zheng Nian, "I didn't know you were here, and I haven't greeted you from afar. I still hope to make amends."

"Sir, there is no need to be too polite, this trip is not official, but to find a friend." Zheng Nian returned the salute, and said in a flat voice, "I heard what the students of the academy said, it is a woodcutter in the woodshed of the tail yard, and I want to find a friend. Searching."

"Oh, you're talking about that part-time worker, right? I just paid some money, and now I should pack my luggage in the end yard. If I catch up fast, I can make it in time." The student's voice was cadenced.

Zheng Nian quickly thanked him, and took Chen Xuan'er to the end courtyard.

Zhusi Academy is very vast, and the two of them walked for a long time before arriving at the end courtyard.

Zheng Nian looked up, and sure enough, the Hanging Pagoda could be seen clearly from here. It could be seen clearly from the third floor. If a person stood on the third and fourth floors, he would definitely be able to see the people in the courtyard.

When we got to the firewood room, there was no one there, except for a student who was sweeping the floor.

"Excuse me..." The student looked a little jerky.

"Has the day laborer who just resigned left?" Zheng Nian asked.

"I will go out..." the student said.

Zheng Nian thanked him, saw that there was still a plate of roast chicken on the table, went up to grab it, twisted off the chicken leg, and hurriedly turned his head and walked out.

Outside the gate of the backyard, one street away is the Hanging Pagoda, Zheng Nian led Chen Xuan'er to the vicinity of the Hanging Pagoda without thinking.

"Brother!" Chen Xuan'er grabbed Zheng Nian's arm and pointed upward, "Look."

Zheng Nian looked up in the direction she pointed, and there was a person standing on the fourth floor of the Hanging Tower.

Taking a closer look, it was none other than Lin Changqin whom he had seen in prison.

Above the towering suspended tower, the fourth floor is already much higher than the sixth floor of ordinary buildings. Jumping from this place must be smashed to pieces. At this time, Lin Changqin stood on the tile eaves outside the window of the four-story tower with a determined face. , looking down unfocused.

"Wait for me." Zheng Nian left a sentence, and then jumped straight to the hanging tower.

Lin Changqin was chanting something silently, but he just repeated it over and over again. Standing below, Chen Xuan'er was anxious, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, so she could only pray in her heart with fear.

Zheng Nian walked fast, and when he reached the fourth floor, there was already a circle of people around the viewing window. There were passing tourists and spectators, as well as monks on the suspended tower.

Zheng Nian, who had no intention of joining them, directly pushed aside the crowd and jumped out of the window sill. Lin Changqin also immediately noticed someone behind him, and without turning his head, he sternly said, "Don't come over."

"Don't make trouble, brother." Zheng Nian said steadily, "I finally climbed out from under the guillotine, why are you jumping off a building now? I've done this before, and I just jumped if I wanted to. Why wait here."

Lin Changqin suddenly turned around when he heard this, "It's you?"

"It's me." Zheng Nian smiled and moved forward step by step.

His pace was very slow, and when Lin Changqin saw him, he stopped, not letting him notice his small movements.

"Why are you here?" Lin Changqin asked.

"I'm here to save you." Zheng Nian smiled.

"You?" Lin Changqin asked with a wry smile in doubt, "What can you do to save me?"

"Since you have already died once, why die again?" Zheng Nian asked.

"It's not that I have died once, but that I have already died, but the soul was dead before, and now it is put into the body." Lin Changqin sighed, and slowly closed his eyes, "Before dying, you can still meet old people. It's better to have no reason and no one to remember."

"Aren't you surprised why I came to you?" Zheng Nian asked.

Lin Changqin shook his head, "I don't know, and I don't want to know. It seems that there is nothing in this world that interests me anymore."

"Princess Jian'an asked me to come." Zheng Nian subconsciously lowered his voice.

"It's her..." Lin Changqin suddenly smiled, looking at Zheng Nian's face, "Okay, hearing her name at this moment, I will have no regrets in this life. If I knew that she would miss her so far, it would be enough to comfort me in this life , in this world, it doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it.”

As he spoke, Lin Changqin jumped and landed on the ground.

Zheng Nian was shocked, and immediately flew out, grabbing Lin Changqin's arm in the air.

"Are you not loving her enough, or is she not loving you enough?" Zheng Nian said angrily, "People can die, but they can't die with regrets."

"I don't regret it, it's because I don't love her enough, and she doesn't love me enough, this fate will be fine in the end." Lin Changqin tried hard to break free from Zheng Nian, "She is a princess, so how can I get away with it!"

Zheng Nian grabbed Lin Changqin and lowered his body.

Chen Xuan'er, who was below, was shocked, and hurriedly ran to Zheng Nian's position, lightly passed by the crowd, and landed under the hanging tower, only then did she see that Zheng Nian was unscathed.

Heaving a sigh of relief, he walked to Zheng Nian's side, "Are you okay?"

Zheng Nian looked at Lin Changqin suddenly.

There was blood all over his body, and his whole body was wrapped in blood.

"This..." Chen Xuan'er grabbed Zheng Nian's arm tightly.

Zheng Nian sent a few good people to the Chang'an County Yamen, but he took off his cloak and covered Lin Changqin.

Shaking his head and sighing.

"Go back." Zheng Nian didn't say anything, grabbed Chen Xuan'er's hand, and led her slowly out of the crowd of onlookers.

"He... just died like this?" Chen Xuan'er looked at Zheng Nian strangely, "But I clearly saw that it was you..."

"It's a fart, please keep your voice down." Zheng Nian knew there were people around him, and he also knew where the cool breath came from when he finally landed just now.

He could rely on the Life and Death Gu on Su Wenqing's head and use her recklessly to save himself, but Lin Changqin couldn't, so he had to come up with this method.

Chen Xuan'er frowned and looked at Zheng Nian, "What are you doing?"

"What kind of person do you think Princess Jian'an is?" Zheng Nian asked.

"Princess Jian'an? She..." Chen Xuan'er said a word, then slowly shook her head, "She is a princess, how could I know what kind of person she is."

"That's what you said." Zheng Nian waved his hand, "But I always feel that this princess is similar to what I imagined, and she may come to ask for someone soon."

"Aren't we miserable then?" Chen Xuan'er asked.

"It doesn't matter whether it's miserable or not. What matters is what kind of person Lin Changqin is to her." Zheng Nian smiled innocently, "Whether this luthier is important to her or not."

"What do you want to say?" Chen Xuan'er asked.

"I want to say..." Zheng Nian guessed, "If I'm not wrong, Dazhou will lose a princess from now on."

"Ah?" Chen Xuan'er looked at Zheng Nian in surprise, "You're going to kill..."

"Shut up." Zheng Nian dragged Chen Xuan'er straight to the Chang'an County Government Office.
