Chapter 556 Thank you with your life
Huo Changhe was not frightened by Li Jingyao. His attention was all on the Red Xiao Sword.
"Why is the Red Xiao Sword in your hands?"
Li Jingyao asked: "Who are you? Why do you know the Red Xiao Sword?"
"The Red Xiao Sword is the sword of General Wen. It has killed countless enemies. Who knows?"
Yan Ruyu glanced at him and gently held his arm.
Huo Changhe was filled with anger and gradually calmed down.
Li Jingyao looked carefully and said calmly: "The General Wen you are talking about has had his family confiscated and exterminated by the imperial court. This sword will be given to whoever forces it."
Huo Changhe gave a short laugh: "Okay, in that case, how about I compete with you?"
Li Jingyao narrowed his eyes slightly: "Do you want this sword?"
Huo Changhe pointed the tip of his sword: "In short, this sword has pride and cannot fall into the hands of traitors."
Li Jingyao thought for a while, stood up and said, "If you want to compete, you can, I will accept you! However, I have conditions."
"Say."
"First of all, don't tell others about the theater; secondly, we came to the city this time to find medicinal materials. We don't want to reveal our whereabouts, let alone hurt others."
Kui Xin bandaged the wound and came out. When she heard these words, she came over quickly: "Young Master!"
Li Jingyao patted her and told her not to worry: "If you do these two things, I will fight you by the lake outside the city in three days. If I lose, the sword will be yours."
"If you lose..."
"I won't lose," Huo Changhe said firmly, "Chixiao, I'm determined."
Li Jingyao chuckled: "Okay, let's decide the outcome in one battle."
Kui Xin frowned: "Young Master..."
Li Jingyao shook his head.
Yan Ruyu grabbed Huo Changhe and asked Li Jingyao: "What medicinal materials are you looking for?"
"Tian Zhu Cao," Li Jingyao's eyes deepened slightly.
Yan Ruyu raised her eyebrows slightly: "What the Master said is not honest. The Heavenly Punishment poison is never used alone. It is used together with the Earthly Evil, and it is a wonderful medicine for healing injuries."
"Could it be that you already have a Disha?"
Li Jingyao's eyes brightened: "Do you know medical skills?"
Yan Ruyu said confidently: "It's not that I have a little understanding, but I'm proficient."
Li Jingyao's eyes were filled with joy and vigilance, flowing back and forth between the two of them, and finally said: "Then I'll add one more."
He mentioned the pair of swords: "My pair of swords are made of black iron by the blacksmith master who has retired from the world. If I lose in the competition, not only Chi Xiao will lose to you, but I will also give you this pair of swords."
"Even if I win, I will give you the knife. All you ask is that you can help me see a patient."
For the last sentence, he looked at Yan Ruyu.
Yan Ruyu's expression remained unchanged as she said, "Okay, it's a deal."
"A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold!"
Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe left the theater. There were murderous intentions in the dark, but they turned a blind eye.
After leaving the theater and returning to the car, the secret guard was already waiting by the carriage.
He was at the back of the stage just now. If Yan Ruyu hadn't made the gesture, he would have stopped Li Jingyao when he appeared.
"Your Majesty, Princess, there are many agencies in this theater, including the waiters, they are all masters."
Yan Ruyu nodded: "As expected, this theater is Shuizhai's stronghold in the city."
Pulling Huo Changhe onto the carriage, Yan Ruyu held his hand and comforted him in a low voice: "My lord, don't be anxious. We have some clues now. When we beat him in the competition, we can ask him how he got it."
"If he refuses to say anything and thinks of a solution when the time comes, he is willing to put himself in danger and come to God to punish him. The sick person must have a close relationship with him."
Huo Changhe held her hand back: "I'm not in a hurry, but... I'm glad that I finally have some news, but I think that General Wen was killed and his things were used by others, and I feel uneasy."
Yan Ruyu nodded and said after a long silence, "I understand."
Huo Changhe looked at her: "Yu'er, aren't you good at comforting people?"
Yan Ruyu was rarely embarrassed.
Huo Changhe smiled sullenly and hugged her: "I understand, you don't have to try so hard to comfort me."
"It's good to be by my side."
Yan Ruyu sighed: "At least we can be sure that Li Jingyao and the county government are not a cooperative relationship as we originally thought."
"Well, this theater has been in Lincheng for so long, but the man didn't know about it. He even sent someone to contact Shuizhai. If the theater was really built for cooperation with him, he wouldn't know about it."
Yan Ruyu smiled slightly: "So, if Li Jingyao is not his partner, then he can become ours."
Huo Changhe instantly understood what she meant: "You mean..."
Yan Ruyu was about to say something when she felt the space vibrate.
She suddenly remembered and made an appointment with the abbot.
Oops! Forgot about him!
……
The abbot had already drank enough water.
After making an agreement with Yan Ruyu, he came to a small teahouse near Zhenwei Escort to wait.
Yin Ding heard that there was a teahouse across from Zhenwei Escort. It was quite large, but it was too conspicuous, so he didn't go in and found a small one nearby.
I waited and waited, but no one was there.
I couldn't wait any longer, so I sent the call message.
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, he was about to go to the toilet when he saw a person walking towards him quickly and blocking his way.
"Hey, let me tell you," the abbot opened his mouth and suddenly thought that he was a monk. He cleared his throat and said, "Donor, do you have any advice?"
Yan Ruyu blinked at him: "Let's go, find a place."
When the abbot heard her voice, he looked up and down: "Who are you?"
Yan Ruyu: "..."
"As long as you say who are you, I can accept it. Who the hell are you?"
The abbot looked around: "Isn't this a correct code? Okay, it's correct."
"Let's go, there is a small alley over there. I have checked the surrounding terrain," the abbot led her out.
When they reached the alley, there was a big tree that blocked the two of them.
"Come on, what's the plan?"
"Say it first, it will be a bit dangerous."
"Tch, you're looking down on me, aren't you? We are also people who have escaped death from a knife. How can we be more dangerous than when I was in the temple and surrounded by bandits?"
"Can we be more dangerous than when we were on the street and were surrounded and killed by so many people? Am I afraid? No way!"
"That's good," Yan Ruyu said earnestly, "What I want is your heroic spirit. Didn't you say that the eldest lady treats you very well, and you also want to do your part for her."
"That's right, the Lord of Yongchang County is really not a toy. Madam is such a good person. I must contribute. What do you think?"
Yan Ruyu whispered a few words, and the abbot's face slowly turned from red with pride to frightened white.
"No, I think we can discuss this matter in the long run."
"You regretted it?" Yan Ruyu asked.
"It's not that I regret it," the abbot said. "It's that I feel that when you vent your anger, you must vent your anger. You can't use your own life to vent your anger. My life is life, not a balloon. Once you vent your anger, you can blow it back again."
"I will die if I don't take this breath out of my mouth."
Yan Ruyu: "..."
