Episode 29 (2)
The night outside was dark and windy, and Qing Ran saw that the time was almost up, so he changed into dark clothes and prepared to go. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Yu Zimo reminded him that it had just snowed, and it was easy to leave traces, so be careful in everything. Qingran reassured Yu Zimo, rested at ease, and waited for him to come back. After leaving the door, he disappeared silently into the night.
……
Among the things that Yu Zimo wanted, cinnabar was the most troublesome, and no one would hoard so much cinnabar at one time. Changming went to several different shops before he bought enough cinnabar. In the afternoon, he and Lu also showed the prepared things to Yu Zimo. After Yu Zimo checked it, he said that there was no problem.
In the morning, they saw that Qingran had returned, and they didn't know what to say in the house with Yu Zimo.
When they saw Zimo, they saw a map that had just been drawn on the table in the room.
"This is a picture of the situation in the Changyu Mansion based on Qingran's description. Yu Zimo said.
"You really did it. Changming was a little surprised. How did he do it? The princess seemed to know.
"I didn't expect you to have this ability. Lu also said to Qingran.
"I used to be a hunter, hunting in the mountains all year round, when hunting, if I am not careful, I will scare away the prey, so this is my hunter's instinct, the guards in Chang Yu Mansion are always not as alert as the birds and beasts in the mountains. Qingran felt that he was able to do this entirely because he grew up in a different environment from Changming and them, so he didn't feel that he was anything special. He's just using his status as a hunter.
"Not all hunters have this skill. Lu also said in a flattering tone.
Qingran smiled indifferently.
After Changming and Lu were surprised, Yu Zimo pointed to the picture on the table and said, "According to Qingran's observation, Chang Yu's mansion is mainly divided into three parts. The largest house in the front is the living room, in the back is where Chang Yu and his concubines live, and next to it are a few guest rooms, which are temporary residences, and behind the rooms are the kitchen, firewood room, and where the servants live. The three of them should be living in the middle room. There is an enchantment in the entire Changyu Mansion, and ordinary spells and spirits cannot enter. ”
"Princess, do you want these things we have prepared to break the barrier?" asked Chang Ming.
"We're ordinary people, and enchantments don't work for us. These things that you are to prepare are for the purpose of dealing with the spirits who possess them. Lingzhan and they all have some spells, and ordinary ropes can't catch them. Yu Zimo said, "On the night of the festival, if they don't leave the house, what we have to do is to go in and lure them out, and then tie them up with yellow cloth and rope and bring them back." ”
"Who is the princess going to send to do this?" Lu also asked. This matter is very important, and not many people know about it, mainly a few people in the house. But on the night of the festival, Chang Yu wanted to attend the banquet, and Qing Ran and Yu Zimo naturally had to attend, otherwise it would arouse suspicion. Qing Yao is Yu Zimo's personal maid, and Chang Ming is her chief guard, so it is difficult to get out. The rest is just yourself.
"I'll go. It doesn't mean that Zi Mo answered, Qing Ran said.
"Don't you have to go to a banquet?" said Luya.
"I won't attend the banquet held by the Shang King. Qingran said with a calm face, "I will tell him that I will accompany my mother in the backyard and will not be suspected." He continued, "And only I have entered Changyu Mansion, so I know more about the situation in the mansion, and I am more sure of finding and arresting people." ”
"I'm afraid that's not right. Changming hesitated. Although Qingran's words make sense. But his failure to attend the banquet is always out of line, and it is easy to attract the attention of outsiders. In addition, although Qingran can sneak into Changyu Mansion, investigating and arresting people are two different things. Lingzhan They are powerful wizards, not beasts in the mountains, just clear of the three-legged cat's kung fu, I'm afraid it won't work.
"Let's go. Yu Zimo said, "Qing Ran and Lu also bring a few reliable guards, if Ling Zhan and them leave Changyu Mansion, you will find an opportunity to do it outside, if they don't come out, you two will go in and lure them out, and let the guards ambush outside." ”
"How do you lure them out?"
"Let's act when the opportunity arises, Lu Ye, you will have a way, right?" Yu Zimo looked at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye blinked easily with a small eye, "Leave it to me." ”
"Princess, let me go with them. Chang Ming stepped forward and said. In his eyes, Qingran's kung fu is not good, and Lu is not reliable, so it is not reassuring to let such two people complete such an important task.
"You've got to follow me. Yu Zimo said, "Qing Ran is not going, we are the focus of the banquet, you and Qing Yao are my close attendants, and whoever is missing will attract the attention of others." We can't let Chang Yu doubt it. And we go to the banquet to monitor Chang Yu, if he leaves the table halfway back, or has other actions, someone needs to monitor and report. ”
Changming thought about it, it is true, they can't just look forward and ignore the back. It can only be arranged as the princess.
"That's it for now. Yu Zimo said, "Before the banquet tomorrow night, we will make detailed arrangements." We're going to get everything ready tonight. ”
"These things?" Lu also pointed to the rope, yellow cloth, cinnabar, and snow water on the ground.
"Lingzhan they are not ordinary wizards, whether they can trap them depends on these. ”
"What's the use of all this?" asked Qingran.
Yu Zimo asked people to bring three large basins, poured the three buckets of cinnabar into the three large basins, and then poured snow water onto the cinnabar. She handed Qingran, Chang Ming, and Lu Ye three wooden sticks. "Three of you, one for each of you, stir the water and cinnabar in the basin. Concentrate and stir in one direction, with one force. ”
The three of them took the sticks, each of them a wooden basin, and stirred it up. At first, I felt relaxed and fun, but after a long time, I felt strained and my arms were sore.
"When will this be stirred?" Lu also got up.
"Until well blended. When they were stirring cinnabar, Yu Zimo was on the side, guarding the stove, and asked Qing Yao to make him a pot of tea and taste it slowly. The room exudes the warm smell of tea.
"It's so torturous. Lu also twitched his nose vigorously and complained again, "We are doing coolies here, but you make such fragrant tea, let us smell it." ”
"Don't let go of your hands. Yu Zimo tasted it and said, "You should be glad to hear something, it can be regarded as a reward for your work." Most people can't smell it. ”
Lu also made a sad face and asked if the princess could let them take a sip of tea after finishing the coolies.
Yu Zimo refused his request without hesitation.
Changming didn't understand what Lu was also pretentious about, he smelled the princess's tea, and he only felt refreshed.
