After Ling'er left, the old woman sternly said to the girl, "Qin'er, the poisoning of the villagers is your masterpiece, right?"
Qin'er lowered her head and said respectfully, "Report to the palace master , the flame knights of the demon sect strictly guard the Nine Girls Spring. Otherwise, Qin'er cannot obtain the spring water secretly."
"I know your good intentions, but how can you do anything for my mere life. Do you know how many innocent people have suffered because of such an outrageous thing?" the old woman said sincerely.
"Palace Master, Qin'er realizes that she is wrong." Qin'er said and knelt down. She continued to explain, "Palace Master has been unconscious and doesn't know what happened in the martial arts world recently. A few days ago, That Master Yuxiao claimed to have obtained the Lingxiao Silver Token, held a martial arts conference, and wanted to command Lingxiao Palace," Qin'er said.
"It's impossible for senior brother to hand over the token to the Demon Cult." The old woman said firmly.
"Yes, Palace Master Cheng delivered the token to Yixingmen before his death." Qin'er said.
The old woman nodded when she heard the words, feeling that this was very appropriate. Then she said, "Young Master Yuxiao is really cunning. In order to induce me to show up, I also held a martial arts competition. If I am detoxified, I will definitely He will show up to stop him. If the poison is still not detoxified, he can find me as long as he guards the Jiu Nu Spring."
Then, the old woman asked, "Qin'er, what happened to Yixingmen after the conference?" Someone came forward to stop it."
Qin'er said, "The Yixing envoy exposed the devil's conspiracy on the spot and showed the silver token."
The old woman nodded with satisfaction and said. "Senior brother did the right thing. He entrusted the silver token to Yixingmen. I also believe that Yixingmen can take on this important task."
"Palace Master, you also want to entrust the token to Yixingmen." Door?" Qin'er asked.
The old woman said, "I have a plan in mind."
Yes, this old woman is Li Xiaoxiao, one of the two former palace masters of Lingxiao Palace. There are rumors in the world that she fell off a cliff and died many years ago. There are only a handful of people who know that she is still alive, and among them is Master Yuxiao.
Li Xiaoxiao turned to look at Qin'er and said seriously, "No matter what, Qin'er, you did something wrong this time."
"Qin'er knew how to poison the villagers. No, but I have no choice but to see Lingxiao Palace fall into the evil hands. Only you, Palace Master, can save Lingxiao Palace," Qin'er said sadly.
"If it's wrong, it's wrong." Li Xiaoxiao lowered his eyes and said.
"Please, Palace Master, take Qin'er into consideration for taking care of you for many years and give her a lighter sentence." Qin'er begged her.
"I have always treated you as my own granddaughter." Li Xiaoxiao sighed, and then said, "But the country has national laws, and the palace has palace rules."
Qin'erhan He kowtowed to her with tears and said, "Qin'er can no longer serve the palace master. Palace master, you have to take care of yourself."
Li Xiaoxiao closed her eyes sadly and let her tears fall gently.
Qin'er wiped away her tears and left the cabin reluctantly.
At six o'clock the next day, Ling'er came to visit the old man as promised.
The attentive Ling'er noticed that the girl was not at home, and curiously asked "Where is the little sister?"
"Can I call you Ling'er?" Li Xiaoxiao nodded when he saw Ling'er , then continued, "After you left yesterday, Qin'er confessed to me that she was responsible for the poisoning of the villagers, and she left on her own."
"What?" Ling'er was surprised and hurriedly explained to the girl Said, "Senior may have some misunderstandings. The poisoning of the villagers is indeed related to her, but it was done unintentionally. She didn't know it was poison at all. How could it be an unintentional mistake?"
"These are the things Qin'er said Did you say that?" Li Xiaoxiao interrupted softly.
Linger nodded.
"Ling'er, how can you be so gullible to believe that the world is dangerous, and the human heart is even more dangerous?" Li Xiaoxiao said sincerely, "You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others."
"But her" Ling'er wanted to defend Qin'er again, but was interrupted again by Li Xiaoxiao.
"Don't mention her again. Ling'er, I have something important to tell you." Li Xiaoxiao said seriously, "I am Li Xiaoxiao."
Ling'er Er was startled and said, "Senior is Palace Master Li of Lingxiao Palace."
"It seems you know me." Li Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
"But didn't Palace Master Li slip and fall off a cliff many years ago?" Ling'er raised her doubts.
"Yes, when I was being hunted by others, in order to save the Lingxiao Palace, I jumped off a cliff. All the meridians in my body were cut off, and only one breath was left. Fortunately, God has eyes, and I met him at the foot of the cliff. Dr. Gan, who collects medicinal herbs, said Li Xiaoxiao.
“My grandfather,” Ling’er said in surprise.
"Dr. Gan not only saved my life with his wonderful rejuvenation skills, but also restored my martial arts skills." Li Xiaoxiao said gratefully, "Later, I asked Dr. Gan to keep this secret for me. "
"No wonder even I don't know." Ling'er said.
"However, a few days ago, I met Mr. Yuxiao from the Demon Sect." Li Xiaoxiao said, "I didn't expect that his martial arts skills were so high. I managed to escape after being hit in the palm."
"After that, senior came here and relied on the water from the Nine Girls Spring to suppress toxins," Ling'er asked.
"Yes. Later, the old man fell into a coma and remained unconscious. Qin'er was taking care of her, and she poisoned the villagers in order to hide her from others." Li Xiaoxiao said with self-reproach.
"Hiding people's eyes and ears" Ling'er was puzzled.
"Master Yuxiao sent the Flame Knight to guard the Nine Maidens Spring, hoping to find the whereabouts of my old age." Li Xiaoxiao explained.
"No wonder I saw many Demon Cult believers on their way from Hengshan to here, including six Flame Knights." Ling'er recalled what the two Zhong brothers said at that time, and suddenly understood, Demon Cult members were on their way here. The target of the cultists was not Luoyang, but Mount Wutai.
"Master Yuxiao is here too." Li Xiaoxiao frowned.
"What can we do?" Ling'er said anxiously.
Li Xiaoxiao turned to look at Ling'er, her brows stretched again, and she said, "Ling'er, youThe Gengan family has saved my life many times, so I won’t thank you for your kindness. Please accept this." As she said that, she thrust a golden sign into Ling'er's hand.
Ling'er lowered his head and looked at it. The sign was made of gold and was rectangular with the words "Lingxiao Palace" engraved on it. She hurriedly refused and said, "This is so valuable. There is no way that grandpa would blame me if he knew about it." He often said that it is a doctor's duty to save people and not to seek anything in return. "
"This is not a reward, but a piece of my heart. I admire Miss Ling'er's kindheartedness and her sense of saving the world, and I would like to keep this as a souvenir for you. "Li Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
"That doesn't help." Ling'er stuffed the Lingxiao Golden Token back into Li Xiaoxiao's hand.
"This thing is just for me. Only by entrusting the burden on my shoulders to you can I complete my mission. "Li Xiaoxiao said.
"Ah" Ling'er was puzzled.
Li Xiaoxiao did not explain to Ling'er, but said forcefully, "If you don't accept it, you will look down on me. "I am Lingxiao Palace"
"This" Ling'er was very embarrassed, she explained, "This junior has no such intention. "
"Then take it," Li Xiaoxiao said sincerely.
Ling'er couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded and agreed.
Li Xiao Xiao said happily, "Finally, a worry has been settled. "She has seen that Ling'er does not know that this is the Lingxiao Golden Token, and she is not in a hurry to tell him. If Ling'er knew about it, she would definitely refuse to accept it. In fact, it doesn't matter whether she knows or not. She trusts Ling'er. She also trusted Yixingmen, and she was no longer worried about the future of Lingxiao Palace.
Li Xiaoxiao held Ling'er's hands tightly and solemnly said, "Ling'er, you must protect it. Don't." Let it fall into the wrong hands."
Ling'er nodded and said seriously, "Senior, please rest assured, Ling'er promises you that he will protect it with his life. "
In the next few days, Ling'er nursed Li Xiaoxiao's body back to health. After she was fine and recovered some of her internal strength, Ling'er left and headed to Luoyang.
After a while After some investigation, Mr. Yuxiao found Liujia Village and learned about the poison of "Yushengcao". Then based on the description of the pharmacy shopkeeper who sold "Yushengcao" in Geng Town, he roughly confirmed the location of Li Xiaoxiao's residence.
After a series of searches, they finally found the cabin
"Li Xiaoxiao, get out of here!" Flame Knight shouted outside the door. Unexpectedly, Li Xiaoxiao had expected that they would find this place and had already left for a long time.
“Sir, we are a step too late. "Ge Fei reported in a low voice.
Master Yuxiao sighed softly. He ordered a thorough search of the entire hut, but there was no sign of the Lingxiao Golden Token.
"Master Don't worry, as long as she is still nearby, the subordinates will definitely find her again," Ge Fei said.
At this time, Li Yun ran out of the room and said, "Sir, there are some medical tools on the table. Something special. "As he said that, he handed over a silver needle.
Master Yuxiao took it and looked at it carefully, and suddenly found the word "Ling" engraved on the silver needle.
Maybe he will never find Li Xiaoxiao again.
