How to solve problems when practicing the Tao
Chapter 357 The first encounter with Tang Xiaobao
The back garden is a place that only female family members of Tangjiabao can enter.From the main courtyard to the back garden, there is only a small gate for passage.Inside the gate is a path made of cobblestones.Going further in, the mountains are stacked with strange rocks, and the flowers are planted with strange flowers;There is a pavilion on the rockery called Peony, and a pair of peacocks are looking for food under the pavilion.There is a corridor under the rockery, named peony, with emerald green bamboos planted on both sides, and a few unknown birds are playing.In the depths of the willow forest, a swing is slowly swaying.
The back garden is connected to the residence of the female family members of the Tang family.On weekdays, it is absolutely impossible for Qin Xiaoying to sneak in.But today, for some reason, the defense was lax. Taking advantage of no one around, Qin Xiaoying sneaked into the back garden by climbing the wall, and hid in a hidden shadow under the rockery.Even so, he always felt that he had done something bad, and he didn't dare to look around in the backyard.
After a while, Qiuxiang arrived.
"Sister Qiuxiang, here." Qin Xiaoying greeted her in a low voice.
"Why are you hiding here?" Qiuxiang held a handkerchief and looked at him with a smile.
"Isn't this just taught by Tang Yuan, don't dare to make too much publicity." Qin Xiaoying said. "By the way, sister Qiuxiang, what can you do with me?"
Qiuxiang saw him with resentful eyes, "You promised me to find Tang's sword technique for me as soon as possible, have you forgotten?"
[Hidden task: Find Tang's sword technique for Qiuxiang, reward 200XP. 】The system prompts an untimely appearance.
Why did she seek Tang's swordsmanship?This idea was suppressed by Qin Xiaoying. After all, the most important thing right now was to survive 36 hours and find the real culprit of the Tangjiabao murder.
"This..." Although Qin Xiaoying had forgotten some things, his mind was spinning quickly. He said, "I'm looking for it. I believe that in two days, I will have some clues."
"Two days..." Qiuxiang Zhu lips bit the corner of the handkerchief lightly, and stomped her feet, "Okay, I'll wait for you for another two days."
"Sister Qiuxiang, do you know where the young master has gone?" Qin Xiaoying asked.
"What did you ask him for?" Qiu Xiang wondered.
"Young master is a genius, if Tang's swordsmanship can be learned from him, it would be great." Qin Xiaoying made up a random reason.
"A talented person? Are you serious?" Qiu Xiang's expression was thought-provoking.
"Isn't it right?" Qin Xiaoying didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.
"If it was a year ago, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the master of Zhongxing Tangjiabao. However, since he competed with the little lady of the Xie family's sword, his whole person seems to have changed. Hanging around in a ghostly place like a brothel all day long. So when you say that he is a genius, are you mocking him as an idiot?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiaoying laughed dryly. Who would have thought that Tianjian Tang Xiaobao is now a playboy who hangs around flowers all day long? "I am also deeply responsible for love. It is pitiful to think that the young master is so high-spirited, but is blinded by temporary gains and losses."
Unexpectedly, when this remark came out, Qiu Xiang was even more surprised: "Could it be that you were possessed by a ghost today?"
Qin Xiaoying was taken aback for a moment, did he say something wrong again?
"On weekdays, you look down on Young Master Tang the most, saying that he's 'average in swordsmanship' and 'deserves it if he loses'. Why do you speak up for him again and again today?"
Qin Xiaoying was anxious in his heart, for fear that Qiuxiang would see his flaws.I said too much and made many mistakes, so I calmed down and covered it up with a smile: "I also sighed because I saw him being so indulgent. If I was born like him, I will definitely surpass him in future achievements." Qin Xiaoying said.
"A good man should have such ambition!" Qiuxiang's eyes lit up after hearing Qin Xiaoying's words.Unexpectedly, Tang Niu, who is a little listless on weekdays, would say such bold words. "I asked you to find a way to steal the Tang family's swordsmanship, which also means to promote the Tang family's swordsmanship. I just don't want Tang's swordsmanship to have no successors. I think that when the Tangjiabao was first built, the old castle owner worked hard and killed dozens of people. It was only through the banditry that the Tang family’s century-old foundation was built. It’s just that the descendants of future generations are unworthy, and have offended such existences as the sword sage Cangyue Mingzhu. This Tangjiabao now looks like a fire cooking oil and flowers blooming brocade. In fact, the building is about to collapse. It's better for us people to make plans early," Qiu Xiang said.
Qin Xiaoying only felt that Qiuxiang spoke in a different way, and it didn't seem like she could say it from a maid. "Sister Qiuxiang, why do you have such a talent for writing? I can't speak as well as you."
Qiuxiang was taken aback, and pretended to be stupid: "Really? I just imitated my wife's speech. Tang Niu, you are not young. If you have the opportunity, read more books and you will be the same as me."
Hearing what she said, Qin Xiaoying was even more puzzled, but he didn't show it on his face.
The two of them have their own ghosts in their hearts, and they are just using each other to make use of each other.But looking at Qiu Xiang's behavior, it seems that she has a great resentment towards Tang Jiabao, so she found a servant who also had some complaints about Tang Jiabao, and asked him to find a way to steal Tang's sword technique?But with her IQ, doesn't she know that this little servant has no power or power in Tangjiabao, so how can he get Tang's swordsmanship?
At this time, I heard a few people with heavy footsteps coming in. "Tang Yuan said that Tang Niu entered the back garden, find him out."
When Qin Xiaoying heard this, he secretly complained.I just saw that no one came in over the wall, but Tang Yuan kept staring at me.In this way, the privacy between himself and Qiuxiang must be broken.The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and it was inevitable for the two of them to avoid it.
Qiuxiang looked at herself sullenly, and then made an operation that Qin Xiaoying couldn't react in time. She pulled her clothes to her bare shoulders, her hair was messed up, and then ran out, shouting to those people: "Tang Niu wants Molested me! He's over there!" He betrayed Qin Xiaoying without any hassle.
"What?" After hearing Qiuxiang's testimonial, those people did not doubt that he was there, and hurried to look for Qin Xiaoying in the direction Qiuxiang pointed.
Qin Xiaoying was shocked in his heart, and he jumped out quickly and ran in the other direction.
Those people saw Qin Xiaoying's figure, snorted coldly, and quickened their pace to catch up.
"Don't run, Tang Niu!" This sentence made Qin Xiaoying run faster.Crying in his heart, before meeting the sleepy cat and the fat man, he thought he was a pervert first, what is this?
At this moment, he was actually more agile than a rabbit, several body positions ahead of them, hiding here and there, they had nothing to do with him.
"There is a flower picker, stop him!" Several people chased him together, forcing Qin Xiaoying to a high wall seven or eight meters high.
Qin Xiaoying was blocked by them.
"Well, you Tang Niu, you are full of lust, I don't think your legs will be protected this time!" The leader is Tang Jiabao.His face showed hatred.If the news about Tang Niu molesting Mrs. Tang's personal maid got out, he wouldn't even think about doing a good job as a discipliner.
Qin Xiaoying looked at the high wall behind him, and then at the senior servants in front of him, his heart sank.If he is caught by them, he is not sure what will happen to him.He bent his knees slightly, turned and jumped.At this time, he felt that his body was as light as a swallow, and when he jumped up, he was even with the high wall.
"What's going on here?" Qin Xiaoying didn't expect that he could jump so high, panicked for a moment, and fell down quickly.
Qin Xiaoying reacted, clasped the edge of the wall with his fingers, kicked his legs up a few times, and helped his body climb up the high wall.
"Stop thieves!" Seeing Tang Niu's physical fitness, the guard couldn't help being shocked, picked up a stone around him and threw it at Qin Xiaoying, hoping to knock him off.
But Qin Xiaoying is not stupid. Seeing the movements in his hands, he climbed over the wall and went outside the market.
"Hurry up and chase after me! I'll report to the master." Several people had a clear division of labor, but there was a high wall blocking them, so they could only look at the wall and sigh.
"Tang Niu dares to tease Qiuxiang?"
"The point is not this. Judging by his skill, he must be a spy."
The second opinion became the consensus of the family servants, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Tang Niu, who was always bullied, would escape their pursuit and successfully escape from Tangjiabao.
After leaving Tangjiabao, Qin Xiaoying was a little confused.He thought that the dungeon area was in Tangjiabao. If he escaped from Tangjiabao, he should be prompted by the system.But looking back, Tangjiabao still looks the same.It looks like they really have to survive here for 36 hours before they have a chance of getting out.
The outside of Tangjiabao is different from the bleakness many years later. There are small vendors selling stalls along the street, and it looks like a thriving atmosphere.
Although the current crisis has been slightly resolved, the threat of death hangs over his head like a sharp sword.He just felt confused when he first came into contact with the characters in the plot.
After running another seven or eight miles, he came to a lush wheat field and avoided many eyes and ears, so he had time to meditate.
First of all, why did Qiuxiang find Tang Niu?
Tang Niu is just a low-level servant, all he can do every day is take care of flowers and plants.Why did she think that Tang Niu could get the Tang family's swordsmanship?
The Tang family's swordsmanship is definitely not ordinary, and it will not be as simple as Qiuxiang said that he wants to keep the Tang family's swordsmanship alive.Are there any hidden secrets in swordplay?How could Qiuxiang be so caring?
The last one, is Qiuxiang the murderer?
As for why the six members of Tangjiabao 130 died, and what was the cause of death?
There are too few clues to explain anything.
He decided to find Tang Xiaobao first.
Now Tangjiabao can't go back. According to the information provided by Qiuxiang, Tang Xiaobao should be looking for sex and getting drunk in a brothel now.Since the system has given three tasks, it means that Tang Xiaobao is also the key person in this dungeon.
Was it his good luck that he was the only one who escaped the fate of being killed?Why did the murderer just let his hidden danger go?Or is there another secret?
This servant outfit was too conspicuous, and when he saw a man's jacket drying in the air not far away, he "borrowed" it and threw the jacket distributed by Tangjiabao into the farmland.
[Remaining survival time: 29 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, please find the murderer as soon as possible. 】
】
Six hours have passed, and the system prompts again.
Qin Xiaoying inquired carefully all the way, and came to a town eight miles away from Tangjiabao.
【Ink City】
Before the catastrophe, this was the first big city from Beiyan to Xirong.
Outside the city is the place where ordinary people live scatteredly. There are about ten thousand households built around the city.
The outer city of Moju City is about eight miles away, and there are two sentry posts every hundred steps above the city wall.
There is no need to check his identity when entering the city, which gives Qin Xiaoying a chance to get away with it.
Moju City is divided into four areas, and the large area in the west is the trading market, where the Three Kingdoms in Misery and Xirong trade wine, meat, supplies, etc. in this market.To the northeast is the Taishou's Mansion, and two or three miles south of the Taishou's Mansion is the [Gepingfang], where merchants love to go to have fun.
When they finish trading in the West Market, they often come here to visit orchid singing and dancing.The Western Rong dancers are different from the Three Kingdoms in the Central Plains, and are the most exotic.Therefore, the brothel and Goulan business here is the most developed.
It's just that the timing of Qin Xiaoying's visit was unlucky, it was noon, and it was cold in front of the brothels in Gepingfang, occasionally only a few pedestrians hurried past.
The doors of each house were open, but in front of one house, there were a few boys gathering together to play a certain kind of card.
Qin Xiaoying was worried that he couldn't find Tang Xiaobao.So he leaned over and asked the boy who was watching the battle: "I know Tang from Tangjiabao?"
The boy squinted at his clothes. Although he was clean, he was dressed like a farmer.He said angrily, "I don't know, why are you asking?"
"Madam Tang urged him to go back quickly."
"Who are you? Young Master Tang needs you?" The boy obviously didn't believe it.
Qin Xiaoying also knew that his attire was too simple, so he said with a naive smile: "I am a farmer in Tangjiabao. I went to Tangjiabao to deliver some daily food today. I happened to meet a maid named Qiuxiang next to Mrs. Tang. , I don’t know if you’ve heard of it?”
"I know Qiuxiang. It is said that she is fair and beautiful, no less than our oiran here. But she is lucky to be a maid for Mrs. Tang." The boy became interested and chatted with Qin Xiaoying.
"When Qiuxiang saw me, she couldn't stop sighing. When I saw this, I asked her: 'Miss, do you seem to have something on your mind?' She said: 'Mrs. Everyone in the house knows about it, but Madam is the only one who hides it from his wife. There are strict rules in the house, and ordinary servants are not allowed to go out, so I thought it would be best if someone could go and inform the young master.' I heard Seeing that she was pitiful again, she volunteered to help her inform Young Master Tang. She also told me: "You are a kind person, and you may not be recognized by others when you go there. I have something to say first. If someone helps you find Young Master Tang , you can come to me to get three taels of silver, so that in the future no one will gossip and say that I don't know the rules of the Tang family.'" Although there are flaws in Qin Xiaoying's words, how can ordinary servants tell the difference?For example, how can a countryman meet the female family members of the Tang family?
But Qin Xiaoying's words were sincere, and the servant couldn't help but not believe it.Hearing that there is still money, I feel a little more eager in my heart.So he kicked another boy who was playing cards: "Xiaosi, I heard that Young Master Tang has been staying with Miss Zhenzhen in your house for seven days?"
The boy named Xiao Si played a hand of cards, but was crushed to death by his opponent, and lost the hand and the bet money. He said in a muffled voice, "Seven days? It's almost ten days. Many real girls The regular customers are a little unhappy."
The boy pulled Xiao Si aside, and shared Qin Xiaoying's words with him, that Xiao Si had lost both cards and money, and was worried that he had no money to use.So the two asked Qin Xiaoying: "Is what you said true?"
"Every sentence is true. Besides, I don't have much money to spend on weekdays. If the two of you can help me meet Tang Shao, I won't take any of the three taels of silver, and I will give it to you. If you don't believe me, I will give it to you." You can make written evidence." Qin Xiaoying lied without changing his expression.He found that he seemed to be quite talented in this area.
The two boys looked at each other, thinking that there was a kind of honest stupidity in this countryman, most of the doubts in their hearts disappeared.So he called Xiao Si and said, "You follow me."
Qin Xiaoying followed him to a place called "Xunfang Pavilion".
He was about to step into the main entrance, but was stopped by Xiaosi, he said angrily, "You are not a guest, why go through the main entrance." However, Qin Xiaoying's actions confirmed his identity as a countryman.After finishing speaking, Xiao Si led him in through the back door.
There are two big men guarding the back door, seeing Xiao Si laughed and said: "Little Si, how much money did you lose playing cards today?"
Xiao Si smiled and said, "Grandpa, although I lost today, I won a lot of them in the past. When I have saved enough money, I will win their underwear too!"
The two nurses scolded with a smile: "We are your grandfather!" Then they stopped Qin Xiaoying who was following Xiao Si: "Who is this?"
"This is my distant cousin who has been farming outside the city. When I was playing cards on the street just now, I saw him passing by. Our back kitchen is almost out of vegetables tonight, so I asked him to follow him to the back kitchen to chat with the chef. Let's see what food will be delivered in the afternoon." Xiaosi's words dispelled the doubts of the two nurses, and looking at Qin Xiaoying's appearance, he didn't look like a frivolous person who broke into a brothel.So he waved his hand to let Qin Xiaoying come in, and said angrily, "Cooking vegetables all day? Just cook more meat."
Xiao Si smiled and said: "Of course you two martial arts practitioners need to eat more meat, but how much is beef and mutton expensive recently? Where can green leafy vegetables make more money? I will tell the back chef to cook more The meat will be used as a tooth sacrifice for you."
After hearing this, the two nurses felt that Xiao Si was very sensible, and said, "If there is unfinished wine tonight..."
"I will secretly bring it for you, but be careful not to let my aunt know, otherwise you will not be able to eat it in the future."
"I know." The two stepped aside, letting Qin Xiaoying and Xiaosi in.
Xiaosi pointed to the Tianzihao room on the second floor. "Master Tang is right there. I won't accompany you in."
Qin Xiaoying thanked him with his hand, and said, "I will never forget your kindness." What he thought in his heart was waiting for the dungeon to end, and there is nothing left for you.
Xiao Si said: "After Young Master Tang returns, I will walk with you, lest you take it all by yourself."
"It's easy to say." Qin Xiaoying smiled.
Go to the Tianzihao room and tap it a few times.But no one responded.Qin Xiaoying was also polite, and pushed open the door directly, wanting to see if there was really no one inside.
Unexpectedly, he was meeting a girl wearing a light blue floral bellyband.The sideburns of her hair hung by her ears, a little fluffy and disheveled, but it made her oval face look just right.The eyes are bright and take the color out of the whole room.Seeing Qin Xiaoying, he hurriedly covered his chest, "Who are you?"
Hearing the sound, a young man walked out from the inner room, his shirt was stained with wine, stubble protruding from his chin, his face was pale and thin.Beneath the bushy eyebrows were a pair of hopeless eyes.Seeing Qin Xiaoying, he looked stern and asked, "Who are you? Don't you know that Miss Zhenzhen and I are resting in the room?"
Qin Xiaoying was not afraid, and said: "The Tangjiabao will be destroyed soon. As the descendant of Tangjiabao, you don't care?"
"The Tangjiabao is destroyed?" The young man sneered, "Even if you die, the Tangjiabao will not disappear. Where did you come from, how dare you speak nonsense in front of me."
[Mission 3 update: Tang Xiaobao's catastrophe.If he can resolve his knot, he can gain Tang Xiaobao's trust. 】
But what's the use of Tang Xiaobao's trust?It's useless to think about it now.The most urgent task is to see if Tang Xiaobao can find out the truth about why the murderer committed the crime.
Qin Xiaoying said adaptably: "I am Sima Wudi."
"Who sent you here?" Tang Xiaobao shouted loudly, he restrained Qin Xiaoying with his backhand
"I didn't expect that Tang Xiaobao, the majestic Heavenly Sword, would only use this method." Qin Xiaoying looked displeased.He didn't expect that Tang Xiaobao would catch him even if he disagreed with each other.
"You also said that no one sent you, what's the matter with your accent?"
"Can you believe me when I tell the truth?" Qin Xiaoying asked.
"Come on."
"I'm actually not from this world. We received the mission. In one day, Tangjiabao will be wiped out." Qin Xiaoying said.
"Tang Lang, I'm afraid." Nazhen heard Qin Xiaoying's words and curled up into a ball.There was a chill in this world that enveloped her.
"Don't listen to his nonsense! It's all lies." Tang Xiaobao added weight to his hands, and said viciously: "You still don't tell the truth, do you?"
"Everything I say is true. You disappoint me."
"Oh? How did it disappoint you?"
"I thought that after hearing my truth, you should think of a way to save yourself. But you didn't, and you are ashamed of the name of Heavenly Sword."
Hearing Tianjian Yunyun, Tang Xiaobao thought that Qin Xiaoying was intentionally humiliating him, and said angrily, "I don't care where you are from, get out!" Tang Xiaobao put more weight on his hand, and Qin Xiaoying brought a dog to eat mud .
Qin Xiaoying got up and said with a sneer, "I'll tell you the truth if you don't believe me."
"It's impossible for a normal person to believe your nonsense!" Tang Xiaobao felt that the person in front of him had an abnormal head and didn't want to entangle him.
"Longing around the romantic place every day, I lost my martial arts for nothing." Qin Xiaoying returned disappointed.The boy could hear him clearly outside, went to pull him, and said disappointedly: "Why are you talking like that? You flew the duck you got."
"Why don't I say that?" Qin Xiaoying said angrily.A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he remembered the reminder in the mission to untie Tang Xiaobao's knot.So why did Tang Xiaobao linger here?Isn't it because of losing to the little lady of the Xie Family Excalibur?Could it be that the system has given a solution?
"Tang Lang, is he... is what he said true?" Zhenzhen put the coat on Tang Xiaobao's shoulders, put her face on his back, and felt the masculinity of him.
"It's all farting, don't worry about him." Tang Xiaobao snorted coldly.
At this time, the door was kicked open by Qin Xiaoying again.
Tang Xiaobao was furious: "What do you want?"
"If I were you, I'd have another match with that little lady from the Xie family, so as not to hide in the bed of a woman and cry." Qin Xiaoying resorted to aggressive tactics. "But I don't think you dare."
"Who said I dare not?"
"You say you dare, just go to the door and challenge now."
"Why should I listen to you?"
"You are cowardly, and your courage was broken by a woman."
"Can you say that again?"
"I'll say it ten times more!"
"Do you believe it or not that I killed you first?"
"You killed me first and you were a coward too."
Tang Xiaobao smiled angrily: "Okay, okay, it's the first time I've seen you so fearless of death." With a flick of the sword finger, the Tang family's swordsmanship came out in anger! "Elegy at the end of autumn!" This move is his most proud move.
The momentum climbs, and the sword and man become one.
But Qin Xiaoying just found it strange.
Because this move was too slow in his eyes!
It was as slow as if the other party was trying to make him dodge on purpose.
He resorted to the only trick he had learned: "The fire of the prairie fire!"
A flame burned to Tang Xiaobao's sword finger, Tang Xiaobao suffered from pain, and the sword move was abandoned halfway.
"You can't even beat me. You are too weak." Qin Xiaoying's words pierced Tang Xiaobao's heart like a thorn.
"who are you?"
"I'm Sima Wudi." Qin Xiaoying returned to his harmless appearance.
"I believe you are a ghost!" Tang Xiaobao covered his wounds, and sat down on the chair: "Sit down and talk, you have a unique skill, you are not an unknown person. Why did you come to me?"
Qin Xiaoying didn't expect that the problems between men could be solved by fighting.
So he was not polite, sat next to him, and said: "You can't beat that Xie family lady, it's just because you haven't found out that you are Tianjian."
"What is Heavenly Sword?" Tang Xiaobao became interested.
Qin Xiaoying shook his head: "I don't know."
"Are you trying to amuse me?"
"I can't tell what the Heavenly Sword is, but have you heard of Jian Jue Dao?"
"Of course, that's the sword god in the world." Tang Xiaobao became interested.
"He will take you as an apprentice."
"what?"
"Her daughter will still like you."
"what?"
The back garden is connected to the residence of the female family members of the Tang family.On weekdays, it is absolutely impossible for Qin Xiaoying to sneak in.But today, for some reason, the defense was lax. Taking advantage of no one around, Qin Xiaoying sneaked into the back garden by climbing the wall, and hid in a hidden shadow under the rockery.Even so, he always felt that he had done something bad, and he didn't dare to look around in the backyard.

"Two days..." Qiuxiang Zhu lips bit the corner of the handkerchief lightly, and stomped her feet, "Okay, I'll wait for you for another two days."
"Sister Qiuxiang, do you know where the young master has gone?" Qin Xiaoying asked.
"What did you ask him for?" Qiu Xiang wondered.
"Young master is a genius, if Tang's swordsmanship can be learned from him, it would be great." Qin Xiaoying made up a random reason.
"A talented person? Are you serious?" Qiu Xiang's expression was thought-provoking.

"There is a flower picker, stop him!" Several people chased him together, forcing Qin Xiaoying to a high wall seven or eight meters high.
Qin Xiaoying was blocked by them.
"Well, you Tang Niu, you are full of lust, I don't think your legs will be protected this time!" The leader is Tang Jiabao.His face showed hatred.If the news about Tang Niu molesting Mrs. Tang's personal maid got out, he wouldn't even think about doing a good job as a discipliner.
Qin Xiaoying looked at the high wall behind him, and then at the senior servants in front of him, his heart sank.If he is caught by them, he is not sure what will happen to him.He bent his knees slightly, turned and jumped.At this time, he felt that his body was as light as a swallow, and when he jumped up, he was even with the high wall.
"What's going on here?" Qin Xiaoying didn't expect that he could jump so high, panicked for a moment, and fell down quickly.
Qin Xiaoying reacted, clasped the edge of the wall with his fingers, kicked his legs up a few times, and helped his body climb up the high wall.
"Stop thieves!" Seeing Tang Niu's physical fitness, the guard couldn't help being shocked, picked up a stone around him and threw it at Qin Xiaoying, hoping to knock him off.
But Qin Xiaoying is not stupid. Seeing the movements in his hands, he climbed over the wall and went outside the market.
"Hurry up and chase after me! I'll report to the master." Several people had a clear division of labor, but there was a high wall blocking them, so they could only look at the wall and sigh.
"Tang Niu dares to tease Qiuxiang?"
"The point is not this. Judging by his skill, he must be a spy."
The second opinion became the consensus of the family servants, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Tang Niu, who was always bullied, would escape their pursuit and successfully escape from Tangjiabao.
After leaving Tangjiabao, Qin Xiaoying was a little confused.He thought that the dungeon area was in Tangjiabao. If he escaped from Tangjiabao, he should be prompted by the system.But looking back, Tangjiabao still looks the same.It looks like they really have to survive here for 36 hours before they have a chance of getting out.
The outside of Tangjiabao is different from the bleakness many years later. There are small vendors selling stalls along the street, and it looks like a thriving atmosphere.
Although the current crisis has been slightly resolved, the threat of death hangs over his head like a sharp sword.He just felt confused when he first came into contact with the characters in the plot.
After running another seven or eight miles, he came to a lush wheat field and avoided many eyes and ears, so he had time to meditate.
First of all, why did Qiuxiang find Tang Niu?
Tang Niu is just a low-level servant, all he can do every day is take care of flowers and plants.Why did she think that Tang Niu could get the Tang family's swordsmanship?
The Tang family's swordsmanship is definitely not ordinary, and it will not be as simple as Qiuxiang said that he wants to keep the Tang family's swordsmanship alive.Are there any hidden secrets in swordplay?How could Qiuxiang be so caring?
The last one, is Qiuxiang the murderer?
As for why the six members of Tangjiabao 130 died, and what was the cause of death?
There are too few clues to explain anything.
He decided to find Tang Xiaobao first.
Now Tangjiabao can't go back. According to the information provided by Qiuxiang, Tang Xiaobao should be looking for sex and getting drunk in a brothel now.Since the system has given three tasks, it means that Tang Xiaobao is also the key person in this dungeon.
Was it his good luck that he was the only one who escaped the fate of being killed?Why did the murderer just let his hidden danger go?Or is there another secret?
This servant outfit was too conspicuous, and when he saw a man's jacket drying in the air not far away, he "borrowed" it and threw the jacket distributed by Tangjiabao into the farmland.
[Remaining survival time: 29 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, please find the murderer as soon as possible. 】
】
Six hours have passed, and the system prompts again.
Qin Xiaoying inquired carefully all the way, and came to a town eight miles away from Tangjiabao.
【Ink City】
Before the catastrophe, this was the first big city from Beiyan to Xirong.
Outside the city is the place where ordinary people live scatteredly. There are about ten thousand households built around the city.
The outer city of Moju City is about eight miles away, and there are two sentry posts every hundred steps above the city wall.
There is no need to check his identity when entering the city, which gives Qin Xiaoying a chance to get away with it.
Moju City is divided into four areas, and the large area in the west is the trading market, where the Three Kingdoms in Misery and Xirong trade wine, meat, supplies, etc. in this market.To the northeast is the Taishou's Mansion, and two or three miles south of the Taishou's Mansion is the [Gepingfang], where merchants love to go to have fun.
When they finish trading in the West Market, they often come here to visit orchid singing and dancing.The Western Rong dancers are different from the Three Kingdoms in the Central Plains, and are the most exotic.Therefore, the brothel and Goulan business here is the most developed.
It's just that the timing of Qin Xiaoying's visit was unlucky, it was noon, and it was cold in front of the brothels in Gepingfang, occasionally only a few pedestrians hurried past.
The doors of each house were open, but in front of one house, there were a few boys gathering together to play a certain kind of card.
Qin Xiaoying was worried that he couldn't find Tang Xiaobao.So he leaned over and asked the boy who was watching the battle: "I know Tang from Tangjiabao?"
The boy squinted at his clothes. Although he was clean, he was dressed like a farmer.He said angrily, "I don't know, why are you asking?"
"Madam Tang urged him to go back quickly."
"Who are you? Young Master Tang needs you?" The boy obviously didn't believe it.
Qin Xiaoying also knew that his attire was too simple, so he said with a naive smile: "I am a farmer in Tangjiabao. I went to Tangjiabao to deliver some daily food today. I happened to meet a maid named Qiuxiang next to Mrs. Tang. , I don’t know if you’ve heard of it?”
"I know Qiuxiang. It is said that she is fair and beautiful, no less than our oiran here. But she is lucky to be a maid for Mrs. Tang." The boy became interested and chatted with Qin Xiaoying.
"When Qiuxiang saw me, she couldn't stop sighing. When I saw this, I asked her: 'Miss, do you seem to have something on your mind?' She said: 'Mrs. Everyone in the house knows about it, but Madam is the only one who hides it from his wife. There are strict rules in the house, and ordinary servants are not allowed to go out, so I thought it would be best if someone could go and inform the young master.' I heard Seeing that she was pitiful again, she volunteered to help her inform Young Master Tang. She also told me: "You are a kind person, and you may not be recognized by others when you go there. I have something to say first. If someone helps you find Young Master Tang , you can come to me to get three taels of silver, so that in the future no one will gossip and say that I don't know the rules of the Tang family.'" Although there are flaws in Qin Xiaoying's words, how can ordinary servants tell the difference?For example, how can a countryman meet the female family members of the Tang family?
But Qin Xiaoying's words were sincere, and the servant couldn't help but not believe it.Hearing that there is still money, I feel a little more eager in my heart.So he kicked another boy who was playing cards: "Xiaosi, I heard that Young Master Tang has been staying with Miss Zhenzhen in your house for seven days?"
The boy named Xiao Si played a hand of cards, but was crushed to death by his opponent, and lost the hand and the bet money. He said in a muffled voice, "Seven days? It's almost ten days. Many real girls The regular customers are a little unhappy."
The boy pulled Xiao Si aside, and shared Qin Xiaoying's words with him, that Xiao Si had lost both cards and money, and was worried that he had no money to use.So the two asked Qin Xiaoying: "Is what you said true?"
"Every sentence is true. Besides, I don't have much money to spend on weekdays. If the two of you can help me meet Tang Shao, I won't take any of the three taels of silver, and I will give it to you. If you don't believe me, I will give it to you." You can make written evidence." Qin Xiaoying lied without changing his expression.He found that he seemed to be quite talented in this area.
The two boys looked at each other, thinking that there was a kind of honest stupidity in this countryman, most of the doubts in their hearts disappeared.So he called Xiao Si and said, "You follow me."
Qin Xiaoying followed him to a place called "Xunfang Pavilion".
He was about to step into the main entrance, but was stopped by Xiaosi, he said angrily, "You are not a guest, why go through the main entrance." However, Qin Xiaoying's actions confirmed his identity as a countryman.After finishing speaking, Xiao Si led him in through the back door.
There are two big men guarding the back door, seeing Xiao Si laughed and said: "Little Si, how much money did you lose playing cards today?"
Xiao Si smiled and said, "Grandpa, although I lost today, I won a lot of them in the past. When I have saved enough money, I will win their underwear too!"
The two nurses scolded with a smile: "We are your grandfather!" Then they stopped Qin Xiaoying who was following Xiao Si: "Who is this?"
"This is my distant cousin who has been farming outside the city. When I was playing cards on the street just now, I saw him passing by. Our back kitchen is almost out of vegetables tonight, so I asked him to follow him to the back kitchen to chat with the chef. Let's see what food will be delivered in the afternoon." Xiaosi's words dispelled the doubts of the two nurses, and looking at Qin Xiaoying's appearance, he didn't look like a frivolous person who broke into a brothel.So he waved his hand to let Qin Xiaoying come in, and said angrily, "Cooking vegetables all day? Just cook more meat."
Xiao Si smiled and said: "Of course you two martial arts practitioners need to eat more meat, but how much is beef and mutton expensive recently? Where can green leafy vegetables make more money? I will tell the back chef to cook more The meat will be used as a tooth sacrifice for you."
After hearing this, the two nurses felt that Xiao Si was very sensible, and said, "If there is unfinished wine tonight..."
"I will secretly bring it for you, but be careful not to let my aunt know, otherwise you will not be able to eat it in the future."
"I know." The two stepped aside, letting Qin Xiaoying and Xiaosi in.
Xiaosi pointed to the Tianzihao room on the second floor. "Master Tang is right there. I won't accompany you in."
Qin Xiaoying thanked him with his hand, and said, "I will never forget your kindness." What he thought in his heart was waiting for the dungeon to end, and there is nothing left for you.
Xiao Si said: "After Young Master Tang returns, I will walk with you, lest you take it all by yourself."
"It's easy to say." Qin Xiaoying smiled.
Go to the Tianzihao room and tap it a few times.But no one responded.Qin Xiaoying was also polite, and pushed open the door directly, wanting to see if there was really no one inside.
Unexpectedly, he was meeting a girl wearing a light blue floral bellyband.The sideburns of her hair hung by her ears, a little fluffy and disheveled, but it made her oval face look just right.The eyes are bright and take the color out of the whole room.Seeing Qin Xiaoying, he hurriedly covered his chest, "Who are you?"
Hearing the sound, a young man walked out from the inner room, his shirt was stained with wine, stubble protruding from his chin, his face was pale and thin.Beneath the bushy eyebrows were a pair of hopeless eyes.Seeing Qin Xiaoying, he looked stern and asked, "Who are you? Don't you know that Miss Zhenzhen and I are resting in the room?"
Qin Xiaoying was not afraid, and said: "The Tangjiabao will be destroyed soon. As the descendant of Tangjiabao, you don't care?"
"The Tangjiabao is destroyed?" The young man sneered, "Even if you die, the Tangjiabao will not disappear. Where did you come from, how dare you speak nonsense in front of me."
[Mission 3 update: Tang Xiaobao's catastrophe.If he can resolve his knot, he can gain Tang Xiaobao's trust. 】
But what's the use of Tang Xiaobao's trust?It's useless to think about it now.The most urgent task is to see if Tang Xiaobao can find out the truth about why the murderer committed the crime.
Qin Xiaoying said adaptably: "I am Sima Wudi."
"Who sent you here?" Tang Xiaobao shouted loudly, he restrained Qin Xiaoying with his backhand
"I didn't expect that Tang Xiaobao, the majestic Heavenly Sword, would only use this method." Qin Xiaoying looked displeased.He didn't expect that Tang Xiaobao would catch him even if he disagreed with each other.
"You also said that no one sent you, what's the matter with your accent?"
"Can you believe me when I tell the truth?" Qin Xiaoying asked.
"Come on."
"I'm actually not from this world. We received the mission. In one day, Tangjiabao will be wiped out." Qin Xiaoying said.
"Tang Lang, I'm afraid." Nazhen heard Qin Xiaoying's words and curled up into a ball.There was a chill in this world that enveloped her.
"Don't listen to his nonsense! It's all lies." Tang Xiaobao added weight to his hands, and said viciously: "You still don't tell the truth, do you?"
"Everything I say is true. You disappoint me."
"Oh? How did it disappoint you?"
"I thought that after hearing my truth, you should think of a way to save yourself. But you didn't, and you are ashamed of the name of Heavenly Sword."
Hearing Tianjian Yunyun, Tang Xiaobao thought that Qin Xiaoying was intentionally humiliating him, and said angrily, "I don't care where you are from, get out!" Tang Xiaobao put more weight on his hand, and Qin Xiaoying brought a dog to eat mud .
Qin Xiaoying got up and said with a sneer, "I'll tell you the truth if you don't believe me."
"It's impossible for a normal person to believe your nonsense!" Tang Xiaobao felt that the person in front of him had an abnormal head and didn't want to entangle him.
"Longing around the romantic place every day, I lost my martial arts for nothing." Qin Xiaoying returned disappointed.The boy could hear him clearly outside, went to pull him, and said disappointedly: "Why are you talking like that? You flew the duck you got."
"Why don't I say that?" Qin Xiaoying said angrily.A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he remembered the reminder in the mission to untie Tang Xiaobao's knot.So why did Tang Xiaobao linger here?Isn't it because of losing to the little lady of the Xie Family Excalibur?Could it be that the system has given a solution?
"Tang Lang, is he... is what he said true?" Zhenzhen put the coat on Tang Xiaobao's shoulders, put her face on his back, and felt the masculinity of him.
"It's all farting, don't worry about him." Tang Xiaobao snorted coldly.
At this time, the door was kicked open by Qin Xiaoying again.
Tang Xiaobao was furious: "What do you want?"
"If I were you, I'd have another match with that little lady from the Xie family, so as not to hide in the bed of a woman and cry." Qin Xiaoying resorted to aggressive tactics. "But I don't think you dare."
"Who said I dare not?"
"You say you dare, just go to the door and challenge now."
"Why should I listen to you?"
"You are cowardly, and your courage was broken by a woman."
"Can you say that again?"
"I'll say it ten times more!"
"Do you believe it or not that I killed you first?"
"You killed me first and you were a coward too."
Tang Xiaobao smiled angrily: "Okay, okay, it's the first time I've seen you so fearless of death." With a flick of the sword finger, the Tang family's swordsmanship came out in anger! "Elegy at the end of autumn!" This move is his most proud move.
The momentum climbs, and the sword and man become one.
But Qin Xiaoying just found it strange.
Because this move was too slow in his eyes!
It was as slow as if the other party was trying to make him dodge on purpose.
He resorted to the only trick he had learned: "The fire of the prairie fire!"
A flame burned to Tang Xiaobao's sword finger, Tang Xiaobao suffered from pain, and the sword move was abandoned halfway.
"You can't even beat me. You are too weak." Qin Xiaoying's words pierced Tang Xiaobao's heart like a thorn.
"who are you?"
"I'm Sima Wudi." Qin Xiaoying returned to his harmless appearance.
"I believe you are a ghost!" Tang Xiaobao covered his wounds, and sat down on the chair: "Sit down and talk, you have a unique skill, you are not an unknown person. Why did you come to me?"
Qin Xiaoying didn't expect that the problems between men could be solved by fighting.
So he was not polite, sat next to him, and said: "You can't beat that Xie family lady, it's just because you haven't found out that you are Tianjian."
"What is Heavenly Sword?" Tang Xiaobao became interested.
Qin Xiaoying shook his head: "I don't know."
"Are you trying to amuse me?"
"I can't tell what the Heavenly Sword is, but have you heard of Jian Jue Dao?"
"Of course, that's the sword god in the world." Tang Xiaobao became interested.
"He will take you as an apprentice."
"what?"
"Her daughter will still like you."
"what?"
