"Help...... Help!"

Lu Tao: "???"

Suddenly, the thick baritone voice from behind him made Lu Tao not even have time to call for help, he turned his head to look back, but what was so good that his spiritual power had become stagnant after a series of previous changes, and he couldn't move at all.

A small splash of water stirred up waves of ripples on the surface of the water, and then spread out with this as the center, Lu Tao was stunned for a moment, and then looked closely, the center of the splash was actually a dog.

Aren't dogs born to swim?

Lu Tao fluttered a few times, grabbed the collar on the dog's neck, and was careful not to let the dog bite him in the slightest, and then opened his mouth.

"Help! I can't swim!"

......

On the shore, four people and a dog sat on the ground, they plunged into the middle of the lake, except for Lu Tao, who could swim, even so, it still took considerable effort for the four to return to the shore.

Lu Tao was dragged back by the peony to keep himself from sinking underwater, Lu Tao also spent a lot of effort, as for the dog? Being held in Lu Tao's arms was useless, and the reason why it was also paralyzed there was that it was frightened.

"I'm going! I'm scared to death daddy!" The frightened puppy turned over, shook the water on his body, and splashed Lu Tao in the face.

Lu Tao wiped a handful of water on his face, and carefully observed the expressions of Peony Liu Ruyan and Xiao Tao, it seems that what this dog said is not something that normal people can hear.

Then, Lu Tao doesn't need to talk to the dog like a fool, you can pretend not to understand first, and see what this guy will say, Lu Tao always feels that this is a fake dog, a fake dog that can't even swim.

The dog spoke again, and Lu Tao heard it clearly: "Which bastard flew in the sky and hit Lao Tzu?!I will never spare him!"

Lu Tao: "???"

On the other side, Xiao Tao seemed to have regained some strength, and she squatted down to look at the four short-legged puppies: "Why does this dog keep barking? Is it hungry?"

Lu Tao has been thinking since the beginning, this dog has four short legs and big eyes, he should have seen it in another world, what breed is it?

By the way, it's Pug, maybe it's Pug and Corgi's skewer?

Peony stood up and shook the water on his body: "I have also had a dog before, whether it is hungry or not, as long as it likes a dog that barks, just beat it hard." ”

As he spoke, Peony reached out and picked up the skewers of Pug and Corgi on the ground, held it up and put it in front of his eyes to observe for a while.

"Lie on the grass, let go of Lao Tzu! If it weren't for Lao Tzu's lack of strength now...... Woooo

Peony stretched out his hand and slapped his head and face at Pug and Corgi's skewers: "Call again?! If you call me again, I'll slaughter you and eat meat!"

The pug and corgi skewers finally fell silent, Lu Tao was very skeptical that it could understand people's speech, he always felt that this skewer stopped after listening to the threat of Peony to slaughter it and eat meat.

"Tsk!" Peony pouted: "Speaking of eating meat, I'm suddenly a little hungry." ”

The horror in Kuan'er's eyes was about to overflow, and Lu Tao could confirm 100% this time that this pug and Corgi's Ku'er seemed to be able to understand people's words.

Liu Ruyan interjected: "Now is not the time to eat, we must catch that bastard emperor immediately!"

Peony grabbed the dog and glanced at Liu Ruyan: "Sister Ruyan, shouldn't you explain it to me? Why does a dignified northern merchant appear in the palace now?

"Sister Peony, of course I'm not a businessman, and you're not a businessman, are you? However, no matter who you are, the purpose between the two of us is the same, so don't waste time, we must find the emperor! Can't let him run away with his things!" Liu Ruyan said this to Peony-for-tat, glaring at Lu Tao.

Lu Tao: "???"

"Hmph!" Peony snorted coldly and threw the dog in his hand to Lu Tao: "Of course you and I have different purposes! It doesn't hurt to tell you, I'm a member of the royal family, and the bastard emperor in your mouth is my father! I got that thing, of course, to revitalize the royal family, what about you? If I'm not mistaken, since Liu Ruyan is from the north, I'm afraid you can't get rid of the Great Yue Kingdom, and you are the remnants of the Great Yue Kingdom! I won't let you have the opportunity to destroy the Great Qin Empire!"

"Yu Sin?!If it weren't for your shamelessness, how could you become like this?!Hmph! Great Qin is no better! Except for this imperial city, where else is under your control?!"

Lu Tao hurriedly caught the string of Pug and Corgi, watching the two of them quarrel non-stop, he felt that his head was big, he waved his hand: "Can you stop arguing? Let's find a way to find someone first!"

Liu Ruyan and Peony really stopped arguing, and they glared at each other. Liu Ruyan was the first to ask: "I always thought you were a person who could be trusted! I didn't give you any benefits along the way! Who are you on now? Is it her or me?!"

Lu Tao: "What?!"

Peony also spoke: "Okay! I said Lu Tao, why are you so distracted every time you are with me, I am so good to you, you actually let me down! It turns out that it is because of her! Finally, I will give you a chance, and say! Are you on her side or on my side!"

Lu Tao: "??????"

In the end, of course, Lu Tao didn't go to anyone's side, and he was not stupid, so to put it mildly, Lu Tao asked the two of them to agree, first of all, to find the emperor's secret passage, and then talk about the rest, otherwise everything is in the air, and there is no meaning at all.

That lake is the Yao Pond in the Imperial Palace, and it is some distance away from the Star Picking Pavilion, and it has to be said to be a miracle in human history to fly so far from the Star Picking Pavilion on an iron and stone platform.

Of course, for the world.

When the four of them and one dog rushed back to the Star Picking Pavilion, it was already full of people, including the Ouchi guards who belonged to the palace, the black-clothed people who still didn't know where they belonged, and a large number of eunuchs with sticks, and a delicate balance was reached between the three forces.

The Pavilion of the Stars had been reduced to ruins by the shaking of the previous dance, and the buildings that had been able to pick up stars had turned into unidentified lumps of various colors.

Seeing Lu Tao's four people and a dog appear near the left, there was some commotion among the three people, and after a while, the second prince Hongxi, who had just rolled on the ground for an unknown number of circles, walked out of the group of people in the inner guard, he glanced at Liu Ruyan, and twitched at the corner of his eyes: "Have you found your father?"

Lu Tao glanced at the second prince and found that the second prince Hongxi only suffered a small injury on his forehead, and he had no injuries on his body, whether it was his arms or legs, he didn't know how he survived from the collapsed Star Picking Pavilion.

Peony shook his head: "No, what about you, brother?"

"Hmph! I haven't found the secret passage yet, it's all these people!" The second prince pointed to the other two groups of people: "Sedum! You still don't arrest these people with me! My father is still buried under the rubble! I'm going to rescue the driver!"

"Why do the miscellaneous families listen to you?!" Jinggong Jinggong Jingtian poked his head out of the eunuch pile: "The miscellaneous family thinks that Your Royal Highness the Second Prince is not a good person, so everyone is still in such a stalemate." Also, do you think I don't know? Your Majesty temporarily went to a safe place through the secret passage below, and when His Royal Highness mobilizes the troops outside the palace, I will see if you have anything else to say to the second prince!"

The second prince, Hongxi, wiped the blood on his forehead: "Sedum, haven't you seen it yet? This is all a scene between me and my father, just to lure out those ghosts and ghosts in the palace! I have my father's secret decree here!"

"Cut!" Sedum scoffed: "Do you think I don't know? Your father's private seal has already been secretly used by you! I'm afraid that your secret decree can only be believed by yourself, right? Hahaha! It seems that Your Royal Highness the Second Prince is in a hurry! The boys are fine! As long as we protect the ruins of the Star Picking Pavilion! When the time comes, glory and wealth will be at your fingertips!"

Peony pulled Lu Tao: "Let's go, let's go quietly, it's not okay here." ”

Lu Tao nodded, and took advantage of the fact that the second prince Hongxi and Jinggong Sedum were attacking each other non-stop, and quietly retreated, of course, Liu Ruyan and Xiao Tao also followed behind the two.

It's just that Liu Ruyan and Xiao Tao have been looking for the masked people who were with them before, but of course they found nothing, so they looked a little depressed, Lu Tao looked at their expressions, and said comfortingly: "Even the second prince can survive, maybe they have all survived, but it is possible to hide for the time being, after all, there are people everywhere just now, and there is no room for you to move those people." ”

"Really?!" Momo's eyes widened in surprise: "They're all good people!

"Hmph! Will a good person dress like that and run to the palace?" Peony pouted: "If they are good people, then there are no bad people in this world!"

"Of course they are good people!" Liu Ruyan also joined the conversation: "The ancestors of your Great Qin Imperial Family are despicable and shameless, making I don't know how many people are homeless and causing misery in the world, so your Great Qin Imperial Family can't last long! So they are good people!"

"Look at it!" Peony pursed her lips again: "Let's see if there is any logic in what you said? So the remnants of your Dayue Kingdom are taking revenge in this way? Hahahaha!

"You!"

"I, what's wrong with me, I'm at least my IQ is still online! It's not like you! I don't even have an IQ!"

Lu Tao: "......"

I'm so tired......
