Commander's Destiny

Chapter 35
"Mr. Tao's secret? What is it?" Yao Jingli didn't expect that the broken clue could find hope here again, so she couldn't help asking loudly.

Mr. Tao thought about it for a while, and said slowly: "Now, if you want to know, I can tell you, but you have to promise me a request."

"What request? Let me hear it first." Bai Wuyan was also interested, and wanted to ask clearly first.

"This request is actually not difficult for all of you. Aren't you all going north, why don't you escort my little granddaughter who came back from overseas to Shanxi together. She insists on going so far alone, I'm worried that something will happen."

"It's not difficult, we can promise you." Hearing Bai Wuyan's statement, old man Zhai also confessed, and he said slowly: "In fact, Mr. Tao didn't die back then. Dao, after comprehending the method of longevity, he has guarded the secrets of Taohuayuan for thousands of years, and occasionally sheltered the descendants of the Zhai family. When I was young, there was a disaster in the Zhai family. There have been no rumors about him for ten years, and I don’t know why he left Taohuayuan and where he went. However, Mr. Tao told me at the time that if he was lucky enough to meet a young man with a white jade gourd, please tell him whether Mr. Tao Death, I hope to meet him. That's why I said so much to Mr. Xiaobai."

"It seems that Mr. Tao has found something more important to do." After hearing the important message from Mr. Zhai, Bai Wuyan made up his mind and said to Yao Jingli in a sonorous voice, "Jingli, don't worry. , no matter where I go to the ends of the earth, I will find Tao Gong, ask the truth about the past, and help you find what you are looking for."

Yao Jingli listened calmly on the surface, but nodded slightly, but inside, there seemed to be a piece of solid ice that was slowly melting.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Mr. Zhai invited out the granddaughter he was talking about, and let her get to know everyone.After listening to her introduction, everyone learned that the granddaughter of Mr. Zhai was named Lingxiu. She joined the Protestantism when she was studying abroad and worshiped a priest as a teacher.Before Lingxiu came back, the teacher asked her to go to the church in Shanxi to find two lost disciples and deliver a letter.That's why Ling Xiucai clamored to go out every day, not to preach, but to fulfill her promise to the teacher.

This beautiful girl is wearing a European-style white lace blouse. Her hair is not tied up or braided. She let her hair droop naturally and spread over her shoulders. The little face is flickering, as if it can speak.Not only does she have her own ideas and opinions, she is also lively and cheerful, and she is very outgoing. After introducing herself, she tells Yao Jingli and Jiang Qianfeng about the anecdotes she saw and heard when she was studying abroad. The two began to refer to each other as sisters.

Zhai Jiaben wanted to stay with Bai Wuyan and his party for a few more days, so that they could entertain and rest slowly, but everyone had important matters in mind, and they didn't want to delay any longer.

So on the second day, the Zhai family went to prepare a carriage and sent their granddaughter to follow the benefactors.

Bai Wuyan brought back the old horse and walked in front, Jiang Qianfeng also drove the new car, and slowly followed behind with the two little sisters.

During this adventure, he did not expect that two more girls would accompany him, and Bai Wuyan didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.A group of four walked along Poyang Lake, bypassed this magical mountain, and entered the land of Xunyang, Jiujiang.

It was almost dusk when they entered the city, so Bai Wuyan and his party found an inn, asked for two upper rooms, and sat down in the lobby to prepare for dinner.

Just when Xiao Er was serving tea, suddenly there was a young man who looked like a scholar outside the door surrounded by a few burly men dressed as family servants. He was punched and kicked between pushing and shoving, and the spectators gathered more and more. The more people there are, the more they surround the entrance of the inn.

After a gust of wind and rain, I saw that the young scholar had already been beaten up, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was complaining endlessly.Bai Wuyan thought it was a local gentry bully who was oppressing goodness here again, and when he was about to meet the injustice and fight for justice, he didn't expect a flowery girl to flash up behind the group of big men, and loudly reprimanded that The scholar said: "Qin, did you steal the four white iron statues donated by my father?"

"I'm wronged, my family is not short of money, what's the use of stealing those scraps of metal?" The scholar surnamed Qin wiped the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and replied with an aggrieved face.

"Didn't you make a public statement before, thinking that the statue in front of the mother-in-law's tomb should be destroyed and removed. You said that the mother-in-law died a few years before the death of General Yue, and that Qin Hui and his wife were not the instigators of General Yue's death. It should be blamed on Gaozong who didn’t want to bring back the late emperor, not to mention that Qin Hui and his wife have knelt down to General Yue for nearly a thousand years, so why did they kneel down to their mother-in-law? Did you say these things, huh? You are the descendants of the treacherous minister Qin Qin!” Don’t look. This girl looks delicate, her mouth can be tightly closed, and a few words are slapped like a whip, instantly making the surrounding people become extremely arrogant, shouting and killing.

The scholar surnamed Qin saw that his posture was wrong today. If he didn't change his words, he might become the target of uncontrollable public anger. He might be beaten to death on the spot. I am not a descendant of Qin Hui, but I am a descendant of Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao. If you don’t believe me, you might as well put me in custody first, and see if anyone steals after the statue is restored. And if you beat people in the street without evidence, I can do it today Don't care about it, but if you let me die wronged, aren't you afraid that my family will come to settle the score on the day the truth comes out?"

That girl is also shrewd. Hearing what he said, she thought for a while and gave both parties a step down, threatening: "Okay, since you said so, we won't wrong you, you just cooperate with our investigation for the time being. But don't leave me for half a step, if it is found out that you did it, you will never be lenient!"

After finishing speaking, the girl ordered her subordinates to detain the scholar surnamed Qin, and a group of people entered the inn, preparing to have tea and have a rest.

The scholar surnamed Qin was beaten really badly. He covered his face with one hand and his buttocks with the other, and was supported by two servants to sit at the table next to Jiang Qianfeng and Bai Wuyan.It's just that he didn't expect him to look like that, and he still had time to meddle in other people's business.

I saw that Qin Shusheng turned his face to look at Jiang Qianfeng, pretending to look up and down carefully, then suddenly jumped up exaggeratedly, and said loudly: "Oh, this little Taoist leader is amazing. The big relationship that day made this life different from ordinary people. If you want to turn bad luck into good luck, avoid disaster and avoid disaster, there are still some things that are lacking. It is really not easy, really not easy."
