Chapter 29
The dust settled and the streets became quiet.

"Whoosh..."

Ye Jingtang was panting like a cow, put the knife back into its sheath, and turned to look at Luo Ning, who could see that Luo Ning was covering his left shoulder, with his lips slightly parted, staring at him in a daze.

"How's the injury?"

Ye Jingtang quickly walked up to him, held Luo Ning's left arm and looked at her.

Luo Ning twisted her waist slightly to avoid Ye Jingtang's touch, she didn't have time to care about her injuries, she said in amazement:

"What kind of sword technique are you doing? Why are you so powerful?"

"Did I say I was weak?"

"Didn't you never learn martial arts?"

"I practiced in the yard a few days ago, didn't you see?"

"You've only practiced for a few days..."

Luo Ning opened her mouth, then paused for a while, thinking that it is not impossible for this shameless little thief to realize the peerless sword technique in a few days...

She put away her shocked thoughts, clutched her left shoulder and said flatly:

"It's the wingless owl's unique poison piercing tendon powder. I'll seal the hole myself, and it won't cause any serious problems."

Seeing this, Ye Jingtang secretly heaved a sigh of relief, took out the 'Yulong Paste' that he got from Sanniang last time, handed it to Luo Ning, and then rummaged through the headless corpse:
"Don't help me block the hidden weapon in the future, if you can't block it..."

?

When Luo Ning heard these heartless words, her eyes were naturally annoyed:
"I am willing, can you control it? Do you think that people in the Jianghu are just like you, just watching coldly when they are unable to make a rescue, regardless of the safety of their companions?"

Ye Jingtang just didn't want the people around him to get hurt because of him, but he was still very moved in his heart, so he didn't retaliate, he just quickly groped for the corpse.

As a result, the detoxifying medicine bottle was not found, but a golden thing was found on the chest of the corpse.

Ye Jingtang took out the gold paper and looked it back and forth, knowing that it was an invulnerable Qimen treasure, but he didn't know the details, so he put it by his side and continued to search.

Luo Ning came to the back and was about to say something, but from the corner of her eye she found the gold paper next to her, and her whole body shook slightly.

Ye Jingtang buried his head in looking for things, and noticed that Luo Ning's breath was concentrating, turned around, and looked at the gold paper again:

"You know this thing?"

Luo Ning's pale face concealed the original strangeness, and she was obviously a little flustered in her heart - she knew what this piece of gold paper was, and the leader of Pingtian was also collecting "Dragon Calling Picture" and had one in her hand.

According to Master Pingtian, "Dragon Calling Picture" is a collection of nine strange secret arts, one of which can far surpass ordinary people. If you can learn all of them, you can become immortal and ascend. Luo Ning is not sure, but she is sure that you can keep your face forever.

Because from the time I first met the leader of Pingtian, the leader of Pingtian has matured in temperament, and her appearance is the same as before. She has also benefited from learning a little superficiality, and now she is as tender as Yunli...

Even if there is no magical effect of becoming a fairy, just rejuvenating and staying young forever is enough to drive countless Jianghu masters in their twilight years crazy.

When the previous dynasty destroyed the country, masters from all walks of life took advantage of the chaos to rush into the capital first. In order to compete for the "Dragon Calling Picture", scenes of brothers being stabbed in the back and master and apprentice killing each other were common occurrences, and human relations tragedies in history are countless.

It can be said that this thing is a scourge, and whoever gets it will basically have to be silenced by those who know it, so as not to spread the news and be chased and killed by people in the rivers and lakes.

If you tell Ye Jingtang, in case this little thief is greedy for the treasure, his heart will be swayed...

With this little thief's character, it shouldn't be...

Luo Ning hesitated for a while, but said euphemistically:

"It's very important that you keep this thing away. Don't let outsiders see it...or you will be killed."

Ye Jingtang blinked his eyes, looked at the picture of 'Three Mountains with Dragon's Roar' on the gold paper, and pondered for a while:
"This can't be "Song of the Dragon", can it?"

"..."

Luo Ning didn't speak, and stepped back a few steps, watching Ye Jingtang warily.

Seeing Luo Ning's expression was wrong, Ye Jingtang secretly guessed her worry, shook his head, and continued to touch the medicine bottle:
"Don't order me to block the hidden weapon for me just now, but now you are on guard, are you schizophrenic?"

Luo Ning also felt that her behavior was somewhat inconsistent, and said in a deep voice:

"I don't think you are a sinister person, so I told you. If you really don't have any morals in your heart, you will die the first day you see me."

Ye Jingtang ignored the blunt words, continued to search, and found that the snitch had a lot of belongings, not only gold paper, but also a jade pendant around his waist, and a booklet.

The pamphlet is ordinary, even a bit old. I took a look at the written content - similar to a diary, all of which are written by hand, with a hammer here and a stick, but the pen is vigorous and powerful, and you can tell at a glance that it was written by everyone Not surprisingly, it is the rumored Lu Jieyun's martial arts experience.

Luo Ning stood behind, looking at the small wooden box thrown aside.

The wooden box was very exquisite, and when I was looking for medicine, I opened it, and there was an emerald green jade pendant inside.

"Shuiyunjiantan Zhou family's heirloom 'Longtan tourmaline'... I heard that the wingless owl has been to Shuiyunjiantan, but the Zhou family didn't move, so it was lost."

Ye Jingtang wrapped the incomparably precious booklet so that it would not be soaked by the rain, and asked:

"Is this jade pendant very precious?"

"It's just an ordinary jade pendant. It was picked up by the ancestors of the Zhou family, and it was offered by the Zhou family as a family heirloom. Losing this thing is tantamount to slapping Shuiyun Jiantan in the face. No wonder the Zhou family didn't say anything."

Ye Jingtang wasn't interested in these nonsense, so he didn't answer the conversation. He carefully touched the waist of the corpse for a long time, except for some sundries, he didn't send anything else.

"There seems to be no antidote."

"In order to escape, most of the snitches will put the antidote elsewhere, let the poisoned pursuers get it, and wait for the opportunity to escape. You kill people too fast, you forgot to ask."

"Uh……"

Ye Jingtang's expression froze, he stood up, and looked at Luo Ning, whose face was getting worse and worse:

"What should I do?"

Luo Ning was not very worried: "The poison won't kill me, I sealed the acupoints, just get the poison out. Quickly clean up the mess and send me back to Shuanggui Lane."

Ye Jingtang was not a gangster, and it was impossible to throw the body on the street after killing someone. After the loot was collected, when he was about to hide the headless body, horseshoes sounded from the street in the distance.

stomping on...

There was so much commotion just now, it seems that bandits are making trouble in an important area of ​​the capital, it is not uncommon for people from the government to rush over.

Seeing this, Ye Jingtang hurriedly asked Luo Ning to hide first, and then waited on the street, but after a while, more than ten riders came galloping from a distance, dressed in black and green robes, and they were the arresters of Heiya.

Ye Jingtang was afraid of causing a conflict by mistake, so he took out the arrest warrant issued by Hei Ya from a long distance, and called from afar:

"The Tianshui Bridge shocked the hall at night, and the thief was captured by the order of the black yamen."

The Hei Ya arrester who was galloping over quickly got off his horse and came to the front. The general flag who took the lead, checked the arrest warrant from Ye Jingtang, and after confirming that the seal was correct, he put away his strong bow and crossbow, and said:
"Young Master Ye is a good planner! You are the young man who competed with Master She a few days ago?"

"Exactly."

The general flag showed respect when he heard the words, and bowed his hands again:
"Thank you Ye Shaoxia for your help. Are you sure it's a wingless owl?"

According to the rules, the 'bounty hunters' helped to catch the bandits, except for the stolen goods recovered by the imperial court, everything else belonged to the bounty hunters.

Naturally, Ye Jingtang would not be foolish enough to confiscate his martial arts experience and the picture of calling the dragon, but just threw the jade pendant to the police:
"This seems to be 'Longtan Tourmaline'. I hope that some adults will bring the body and things back to the Yamen and report to them. I just finished a fight and I have to rest for a while, so I won't go there."

The Hei Ya arrester quickly saw that the house was full of ruins, so he knew that the beating was very fierce just now. Fortunately, Ye Gongzi in front of him had no obvious injuries.

Among them, the head of the General Banner asked his subordinates to carry away the corpses and heads, and at the same time handed Ye Jingtang a sign:
"Old Doctor Wang at Wende Bridge is a miracle doctor in the capital. Anyone who is injured in Hei Ya due to official duties can come to see him. If Mr. Ye has an injury, just go there with a sign."

"Thank you."

Ye Jingtang informed several police officers of the place where the wingless owl was found, and asked them to check the aftermath, and then left.

After he got out of the sight of the black yamen catcher, Ye Jingtang turned back again, and came to a dark alley under the guidance of Niao Niao.

Luo Ning waited in the alleyway, her face turned slightly pale, and when Ye Jingtang came back, she hurriedly said:

"Let's go... Huh?"

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Jingtang came to him and carried her on his back.

Luo Ning lay on her back, clutching her shoulders, being hugged by her thighs, her eyes were annoyed:
"My arm is injured, but my leg is fine, why are you carrying me?"

"Don't talk nonsense, just got a sign, I'll take you to see the doctor for your injury."

Imperial physician?

Luo Ning probed Heiya for a long time, knew who it was talking about, and said helplessly:
"I'm a thief. The old doctor Wang in the capital city deals with the six evil spirits all day long, so his eyesight must be vicious. Did I fall into a trap in the past?"

Ye Jingtang paused, thought about changing lanes and then ran to West Market.

Seeing that he was so enthusiastic, Luo Ning felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't really refuse to be carried by the thief, but soon realized that she was running in the wrong direction:

"Where are you going? This is not the way to Yanfang Street..."

"Go to the inn. Shuanggui Lane is half a city away from here, and you will be cold if I run there. If you want to force drugs, can you force them in the inn?"

"...?"

Luo Ning didn't know why, but her attitude was very firm:

"I'm not going to the inn! You put me down, and I'll go back to Shuanggui Lane by myself. Little thief! Did you hear that?...you talk..."
