It would be fine if there were other clues, but it happened to be about the imperial government.

Leaving aside whether Ms. Du's words are credible, if there is really an official force involved in this incident, who would it be?

Is it Liang Xun, the magistrate of Shangshu?Is it Taihe who is the deputy supervisory envoy of the Suzhengyuan?or...

Si Suitai, candle holder?

Recalling Zuo Le who acted together with Taihe in the night market earlier, Jing Zhe fell into deep thought.

If it was purely done by thieves, it would be troublesome, but it only needs to catch people, but the current situation has become complicated and confusing. Among these forces, who is plotting what?

Although Jing Zhe is a young lady of marble, she has never been interested in the twists and turns in the officialdom, and now this also gives her some headaches.

She wanted to ask Ashes for advice, but found that Ashes was facing away from her, looking towards the distant mountain.

"Mr. Yu, what are you looking at?" Jing Zhe asked, and immediately walked to Ashes and followed his line of sight to look into the distance.

"Look at the mountain." Ashes replied.

"Look at the mountains? There are three mountains and seventeen peaks in Shangshu. Which one are you looking at?"

"That one."

Ashes stretched out his finger to one of the peaks, Jing Zhe looked at it, compared it with the map in his heart, and came up with the answer.

"Take Jiangfeng? Why do you want to look at it?"

"do not know."

Faced with Jing Zhe's question, Ashes also shook his head. He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to look at that mountain peak, but felt that there were some places on it that faintly revealed things that were incompatible with other peaks, or in other words, there was a faint guidance.

"It's still early, and I just had dinner, why don't you go for a walk up the mountain?"

"Well, it's not a problem...but Mr. Yu, did you notice something?"

"maybe."

Without saying much, Ashes walked towards Qujiang Peak first, or in other words, the renamed Jiangfeng Peak, which was the place where Old Li went after being possessed by Nian's second brother.

At this time, Ashes didn't realize that in his wooden soul box, there was something more silently mixed in the sundries——

It was a wine cup, the whole body was pitch black, and the ancient giant beast coat of arms was engraved on it.

----------

The mountain is steep and the scenery is beautiful. The road up the mountain is not easy, but Hui Hui and Jing Zhe are both very human, so the mountain road of this level is naturally not difficult for them.

Along the way, you can see many people enjoying the scenery and climbing the mountain. From time to time, there are people who pick up the mountain going up and down. Ashes and Jingzhe are unremarkable among the crowd. rest.

The steps are facing the sky, walking through the clouds and fog. The higher you go, the fewer tourists you can see.

Ordinary tourists are almost at the end of the mountainside. There are many teahouses and pavilions built here. Come to have a cup of hot tea and enjoy the wonderful scenery. It is no longer something that ordinary people can walk, so most people will choose to rest halfway up the mountain and then turn back down the mountain.

And Ashes and Jingzhe obviously didn't come to drink tea on the mountainside to see the scenery. The closer to the top of the mountain, the stronger the strange feeling in Ashes' heart. Now that he was halfway up the mountain, he could already clearly feel something is attracting him.

Without staying too long, the two drank a cup of tea and started heading towards the top of the mountain again. The steep and steep mountain road did not hinder their progress too much. Ashes and Jingzhe finally reached the top of Qujiang Peak. above.

The scenery on the top of the mountain is very different from that halfway up the mountain. Living on this peak, the distance to the sky is greatly shortened, as if it is within reach.

Surrounded by vast expanse, standing on the top of a solitary high and dangerous peak, apart from the boldness that seems to have swept the world, there is also a sense of loneliness.

Unlike the pavilions and teahouses built on the mountainside, there is nothing on the top of the mountain, and no man-made things can be seen. To put it nicely, it preserves the natural scenery, but to put it badly, it is bare, except for some branches and rocks. nothing.

"There... is nothing here?" Jing Zhe frowned and looked around, "Mr. Yu, did you feel wrong?"

She stomped on the ground under her feet, bent down to pick up a broken branch, walked around a few times, and confirmed that there was nothing here.

Ashes also looked around at the bare Qujiang Peak. According to the sign on the mountainside, this place should be called Wangshuiping.

"No, there is something."

Ashes was quite sure, he believed in his own feelings, and he believed in his own flame even more.

There is definitely something around here, but it is invisible and intangible. Although it exists, it does not exist at the same time.

Just when Ashes was thinking about how to break through that plausible barrier, he felt something pulling at his trousers.

"What is this little thing...?"

Jing Zhe made a sound in surprise, it was clear that there were only her and Ashes on the Wangshuiping earlier, so where did this little thing that only reached Ashes' calf come from?

"Gah-ow!"

"A bite?"

Ashes looked down, but found that the one who was pulling his trousers was the derivative of Xi's spell, Mo Ling, also known as Ah Bite.

Why is it here?

Bending down to hug Ah Bite, looking at A Bite who was kicking the four legs in the air, Ashes asked it:

"Why are you here?"

"Gah, gah! Gah—"

Well, it seems that it is indeed difficult to understand Ah Bite, even Ashes cannot communicate with A Bite across species.

Just when Ashes was at a loss, he felt something rubbing against his trousers again, and looked down again, but this time it wasn't Ah Bite.

It was a small four-legged beast with a simple and unsophisticated color, and on the back of the small beast was a somewhat strange vessel.

"This is... Ah Bite, is this your friend?"

Ashes looked at Ah Yao in his hand, and Ah Yao nodded vigorously.

Yes, although it is impossible to communicate, Ah Bite can understand human speech, just let him nod or shake his head?

Just when Ashes wanted to ask Ah Bite some questions, his eyes suddenly froze.

The wind around him, the clouds beside him, and the world he was in all came to a standstill, and after an undetectable moment, this Wangshuiping changed its appearance——

A gazebo suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, and in the gazebo was a person sitting in a loose posture, drinking heavily from a wine gourd in his hand.

"Oh, come in."

When the woman saw the figures of Hui Hui and the other two, the corner of her mouth curled up and she stood up.

"My name is Ling, now, do you know how to drink?"

 

 

Chapter 661 The Drinking Brother-in-Law and Sister-in-Law

With just one glance, he knew that the woman in front of him who extended an invitation to Ashes and Duo was absolutely extraordinary.

The woman in front of her had long sky-blue hair that was almost ankle-length, with a braid behind her head and a pair of blue horns facing the sky.

The pretty and delicate face carried a dusty aura, the corners of the eyes were slightly raised, and there was a slight smile in the shallow blue-pink eyes.

She was wearing some strange clothes. The coat on the coat had an extremely long hem. It seemed to be lined with rows of bamboo slips. I don't know what it was used for. The close-fitting clothes also showed her side waist, and at the same time The hot pants on her lower body also exposed her slender and white thighs.

The woman raised the wine gourd in her hand, her whole body was full of free and easy pride, clear and clean.

"My name is Ling, now, do you know how to drink?"

When she came up, she declared her life, and directly asked Ashes and the two if they would drink.

The woman named Ling was really far from ordinary people, and Ashes looked at the diagonal corners of her head and the slender tail behind her, and then moved to her arms.

Although the arms were wrapped and covered by black cloth strips and dark bandages, some light blue patterns could still be seen in the gaps.

The horns on the top of the head, the slender tail behind, and the colors on the arms...  

These three features really have a strong sense of déjà vu.

When Ashes was contemplating, Jing Zhe didn't even dare to show his anger. Although she was from Dali Temple, she still knew some things about Si Suitai, and she also knew the information about those people whose identities were extremely sensitive.

Why is she here?

Seeing that neither of them responded to his invitation, Ling was a little discouraged, shook the wine gourd in his hand again, and said:

"It's fine, it's fine, it's fine if it's not, what do you mean by not talking?"

Ling swept his tail, and frowned slightly. Just now, she sensed some familiar aura, and found that two people had come to the top of Yanjiang Peak, which had never been visited before, so she became interested and brought them into her In the field, I want to have a few drinks with them.

"Okay, since Miss Ling said so, I will naturally not shirk it."

Ashes came back to his senses, and gladly accepted Ling's invitation.

"Haha! Alright, then please sit down. It would be a beautiful thing to drink Dukang while admiring the mountains and rivers."

Ling nodded in satisfaction, turned around and sat down, with just a flick of his hand on the table, several jars of wine were conjured up.

"Hey...how did you agree? Do you know who this person is?"

Seeing that Hui Hui actually agreed to Ling's invitation, Jing Zhe hurriedly reached out and tugged at the corner of his clothes, and whispered in his ear.

"I know what's going on, so there's no need to worry."

Ashes returned a reassuring look, and walked to the gazebo to sit down, facing the opposite side of Ling.

Jing Zhe stood on the spot, and Ling's gaze moved over to stare at her, making her soft and fluffy tail a little fuzzy, and her fingers were constantly rubbing.

"Oh? A unicorn? Interesting." Ling picked up a wine cup, and after drinking it down, he showed a soft smile.

"Don't be so frightened. I just drank alone for a long time, and I want to drink with others. I won't do anything to you. You can rest assured."

Ashes also nodded slightly, reaching out to pat her side.

Now that the two of them have expressed their views, Jing Zhe would be a little too puzzled if he stood there stupidly. In the end, she also sat in the gazebo, and kept some distance from him beside Ashes. Somewhat stiff.

"I don't know what to call my brother?" Ling asked with a smile as he handed over a wine cup.

"Just call me Ember."

Ashes did not shirk, took the wine cup and drank it. The contents in this cup were indeed good, with a mellow smell and full stamina, but Ashes was like drinking white water, there was no color difference after drinking it.

"Hehe, little brother Ember seems to have a lot of food, come on, let's have a good drink today, and get drunk."

"I can't ask for it."

The two cups collided, the spirits swayed, and then slipped into their respective throats, and the intoxicating aroma of the wine began to fill the air.

Ling was acquainted, and Ashes had vaguely guessed the identity of the other party, so naturally he would not be restrained. The only one who was a little uncomfortable, Jing Zhe, also drank a glass of wine under Ling's half-pushing, his face immediately turned rosy, and the chatterbox also disappeared. opened.
