Chapter 42
And the young man in front of him seemed to be more "evil" than him when he saw the ruthlessness of his hands, and the old man couldn't help but show some appreciation.

"It seems that the word evil will have a successor in the future. Hahahaha~" The old man sat on the tree and smiled wildly.He seemed to see the shadow of himself in this young man, and recalled the high spirits back then.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up his jade flute, and a deep, simple Xiao sound came out.

On the second day, the owner of the inn asked the waiter to go to the roof to check the situation, and then reported to the government.

The servants of the government, after they came, found a few people and carried the body away.

No one asked more questions, and there was no trial or arrest of the murderer.

The guests in the lobby were already bustling, and they started their journeys at dawn. Although some people occasionally mentioned what happened last night, they didn't publicize it loudly.

Zhao Ke and Zhou Zhilan walked out of the room.

Zhao Ke stood on the second floor and stretched, only to see that Li Qingwei had already got up and was drinking tea in the lobby.

"Didn't you expect the Taoist priest to wake up so early?" Zhao Ke joked.

Li Qing raised his head slightly and looked towards the second floor. Zhao Ke's face still had that yin and yang makeup.

"It's a little late for you two to get together." Li Qingwei continued to drink tea, and then said lightly.

Zhao Ke said to Zhou Zhilan: "Your brother is really a man without sentimentality. Let's see how he finds a wife in the future."

"Brother is a Taoist priest. I heard from my mother that a Taoist monk is not allowed to find a wife." Zhou Zhilan said, looking at Zhao Ke in front of her with wide eyes.

Hearing Zhou Zhilan's words, Li Qingwei spurted out the tea he drank.

Then he coughed twice. When he drank the water, he choked on the water because he wanted to laugh.

Zhao Ke shook his head with a smile and said, "I think you two are really brothers and sisters."

"Shopkeeper, arrange to come early." Li Qingwei said to the shopkeeper behind him.

After a while, a plate of steaming steamed buns, three bowls of rice porridge, and a few small dishes were served.

Zhao Ke unceremoniously picked up a bun first, and she asked while eating, "Did you hear anything last night?"

Li Qingwei used chopsticks to stir the rice porridge in his bowl. He looked at the heat coming out of the bowl and replied, "No, yesterday's small path entered samadhi, and my mind was too empty. I went to listen to the Sanqing Taoist preaching on Daluo Hunyuan Daoguo. I didn't listen." Is there any noise outside?"

Zhao Ke narrowed her eyes and stared at Li Qingwei in front of her. She noticed the wet blood stains on the corner of Li Qingwei's clothes.

But don't see through.

Since Li Qingwei joked with her, she naturally joked with Li Qingwei.

"Oh? Then what did Patriarch Sanqing tell you yesterday?" Zhao Ke asked with a teasing smile.

"The patriarch passed down the decree, saying that Miss Zhao committed a crime against Tai Sui, and there may be bloodshed in the near future." Li Qingwei said seriously.

Zhao Ke frowned slightly. If others were let go, they would definitely think that Li Qingwei, the "magic stick", was joking with her.

However, Zhao Ke was born in a noble family, and grew up in the mansion of Lord Zhao, and his mind is far more meticulous than that of ordinary ladies from aristocratic families.

She immediately recognized Li Qingwei's implication.

Li Qingwei said that the assassin last night came after her.

"Does the priest have a way to avert the disaster for the little girl?" Zhao Ke asked.

Li Qingwei took a sip of porridge, then put down the porridge bowl and said, "The way to eliminate disasters and disasters is in the girl's heart. Why should the girl ask why she knows."

Zhao Ke also heard Li Qingwei's meaning. The way to eliminate disasters is indeed in her heart. This method is very simple. As long as she finds the local army, under heavy protection, the assassin will definitely return without success.

Now as long as she takes out the Cloud Piercing Arrow in her bosom and releases it, a large number of Song Army cavalry will rush over in a short while.

It's just about his own safety, Zhao Ke is not worried.

If she wants to be safe, just ask for help, and there will be thousands of troops to send her back to Lin'an City. At that time, she will hide at home and let the other party have superpowers. It is not easy to take her life.

It's just that she is in the open, and the person who killed her is in the dark. If the black hands behind the scenes are not found out, then such actions will definitely happen again.

Because she is in the open, the enemy is in the dark, and she doesn't know when the enemy will attack.

After all, it is impossible for her to guard against it day and night, and even if she guards against it day and night, there are times when she is not careful.

This is not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves thinking about it.If you want long-term peace and stability, you have to do it all in one battle.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ke couldn't help sighing. These were all taught to her by the Xia Wang's uncle. If her ancestors understood this truth, Da Song Jiangshan would not be reduced to what it is now.

Seeing Zhao Ke's sad look, Li Qingwei put some side dishes on her plate.

"If the girl thinks the steamed stuffed bun is too bland for your taste, you can try adding some side dishes. This way you can adjust the taste of the steamed stuffed bun." Li Qingwei looked into Zhao Ke's eyes and said.

Zhao Ke understood his implication, and said happily, "Thank you, Daoist."

Li Qingwei's meaning is very simple, the steamed stuffed bun tastes too bland, so add some salt.And he is the one who puts the "pickles" for Zhao Ke.It means that he is willing to help Zhao Ke solve these problems.

Sometimes it's as simple as that when smart people talk to smart people. It doesn't need too many gorgeous rhetoric, let alone make the words too clear.

Zhao Ke ate the pickles that Li Qingwei picked up. Although it was unpalatable and didn't suit her taste at all, she still ate it.

"The taste is indeed enough, but what's next?" Zhao Ke asked.

"Since we've had breakfast, we should hurry on our way. The green mountains remain unchanged, and the green water flows forever. It's time for Xiaodao to bid farewell to the two girls." After speaking, Li Qingwei stood up.

Zhao Ke understood what Li Qingwei meant, and she didn't intend to stop him.

At this time, Zhou Zhilan grabbed Li Qingwei's clothes and asked, "Brother, where are you going? Don't you want Zhilan?"

Li Qingwei patted her head and said: "Zhilan will follow this sister from now on. This sister's background is much better than my brother's. In the future, you will have no worries about food and clothing if you follow her. My brother is a Taoist priest. Although you are young, you are a man and a woman after all. It's different. It's not very convenient to follow my brother."

After speaking, Li Qingwei turned around and left.

Zhou Zhilan watched Li Qingwei's footsteps, and was about to chase her when Zhao Ke grabbed her.

Zhou Zhilan was about to shout, but Li Qingwei had already used his lightness kung fu and walked away.

Zhao Ke took Zhou Zhilan's hand, smiled and shook her head at her.

Seeing Zhao Ke's smiling face, Zhou Zhilan stopped crying.Instead, he sat there quietly and drank porridge.

After the two had eaten, Zhao Ke went to find the shopkeeper and returned the house.

After buying some dry food, he took Zhou Zhilan's little hand out of the inn, and then walked towards Lin'an City.
