Chapter 80: Night Search
In the evening, the door of Zhou Rong's palace in Qucheng was closed.
In front of the door, three black lacquered wood food boxes remained intact.
Guo Ruoxue and Zhou Ziyi leaned on both sides of the door with their arms folded.
"It shouldn't be!" Guo Ruoxue whispered: "Brother Prince doesn't look like a person who can go on a hunger strike!"
Seeing that Shen Mingyan was kidnapped by Jimo Huaijin into the fire, Guo Ruoxue was really stunned. Although she didn't like Shen Mingyan very much in her heart, Guo Ruoxue was still very sad to see her die like that. In addition, Zhou Rong looked grief-stricken again, and Guo Ruoxue felt even more sad.
"Yes!" Zhou Ziyi Zhou frowned: "Since he came back, he hasn't come out!"
In the twilight, Bai Liwei, who was wearing a gray brocade robe, walked over quickly: "Your Highness is still silent?"
Others don't know, but Bailiwei knows, it wasn't Shen Mingyan who died in the fire at all, Zhou Rong showed sadness and reasoned, but it was not normal to not go out or eat for a few days.
"Yes!" Zhou Ziyi sighed: "I have known His Highness since childhood, but he has never been like this. ”
"Knock on the door!" Bailiwei gritted his teeth.
"Okay!" Guo Ruoxue hurriedly jumped over: "We should have done this a long time ago!"
Three people in one!
The doors of the temple opened in an instant.
Guo Ruoxue trotted all the way into the hall, the hall was empty, the bedroom was empty, and even the clean room was empty!
"When did he leave!" Guo Ruoxue stomped her foot: "Brother Prince, it's too much! Bailiwei, you say, where did he go?"
Bailiwei spread his hands: "You two have been guarding the door, why do you come to ask me!"
"Aren't you the prince's personal guard?" Guo Ruoxue raised her eyebrows upside down: "Say!Where did he go?"
Bai Liwei smiled bitterly: "I really don't know!"
The sky was about to darken, and Zhou Rong, who was wearing a black power suit and a black mask, jumped off the horse in the north of the pillow mountain.
In the twilight, the grass under the hillside could be seen trampled and clumped.
A few days ago, the army of Chu State escaped from here, and traces of panic were still visible.
Everywhere was quiet, and Zhou Rong blew the bamboo spoon in his hand.
Soon, a black-clothed hidden guard ran over: "Your Highness, we have been guarding, and there are our eyeliners within a radius of several miles." There is nothing out of the ordinary. Except for the hungry Sun Zhiyuan, there was no one else in this radius. ”
"He hasn't left yet?" Zhou Rong didn't expect Sun Zhiyuan to be obsessed with this.
"He sat there crying, and when he was tired, he slept for a while, and when he woke up, he cried. Later, it seemed that he couldn't bear it and passed out. While he was unconscious, we dropped him off in a nearby village and watched as someone rescued him. ”
"Okay!" Zhou Rong said as he slowly walked into the mountain, following a rugged path in the mountain in the direction of the fire.
That day, seeing Jimo Huaijin rushing into the fire, Zhou Rong was also shocked. However, Zhou Rong soon realized that it was impossible for Mo Huaijin to do this, unless the retreat route was arranged in advance. Therefore, Zhou Rong left the hidden guard to check.
Jimo Huaijin had written to him before, and the military industry here was very large, and then the villages and towns on the ground did not find anything abnormal.
If there is, then it's underground!
Therefore, as soon as the fire was extinguished, Zhou Rong rushed into the fire and checked the ground one by one. No anomalies were noted.
"Your Highness!" the hidden guard followed Zhou Rong's footsteps: "There was a heavy rain here yesterday, and the ashes of the fire ground washed away a lot, but the subordinates didn't find any caves or anything like that. ”
"Then keep watching!" Zhou Rong's feet quickened: "I don't believe he can stay in there all the time." ”
As he was walking, Zhou Rong suddenly stopped: "Our number has been counted?"
"We send messages to each other every day. ”
"Is there a change in your position, but someone can leave!" With Jimo Huaijin's outstretched hand, he was able to rob Shen Mingyan under the nose of the hidden guard, so what was the difficulty for him to escape alone?
"This ......" the hidden guard hesitated for a moment, "the only change was the one that sent Sun Zhiyuan! ”
"Okay!" Zhou Rong slowly turned around: "You keep it for another three days, and if there is no other situation, you will withdraw to Qucheng!"
"Yes!"
Under the starry night, Zhou Rong slowly turned the horse's head.
On the late summer nights, there was a slight cool breeze.
Zhou Rong rode on the horse and let out a sigh of relief. Sooner or later, he would find Shen Mingyan, but the news of losing her like this would be torturous for him every day.
Not far away, there seemed to be a white shadow getting closer and closer, and Zhou Rong rode up to meet him.
The white shadow didn't seem to expect that there would be someone, and in the darkness, he suddenly raised his hand, and a thin black needle struck Zhou Rong.
With the experience of the last time, Zhou Rong flew to avoid the thin needle, and the short sword in his hand stabbed at the man's neck.
Soon, the white shadow slapped a cloud of fragrant powder at Zhou Rong again.
Zhou Rong hurriedly closed his snort, and his figure turned and fell to the tree on the side.
At this moment, the horse that Zhou Rong was riding had fallen to the ground.
Zhou Rong stabilized his figure on the tree, only to see the white-clothed shadow on the horse, pull the reins tightly, and ran.
Zhou Rong shouted at the white shadow, "Is Gu Ling you?"
Sure enough, the shadow stopped, and his voice was soft: "Lord?"
Zhou Rong let out a breath and jumped down: "It's only been a long time since I saw it, and the disciples of the Holy Hand are about to become killers!"
"Lord!" Xie Guling hurriedly jumped off the horse: "I didn't hurt you!"
Zhou Rong smiled: "If I hadn't dodged in time, I'm afraid I would have ended up like a horse!"
"Gu Ling brings the antidote!" Xie Guling said, quickly took out the antidote from his sleeve pocket, and walked quickly to the fallen horse.
Taking advantage of the night, Xie Guling broke the horse's mouth, stuffed a pill of antidote into the horse's mouth, and shook the horse's head so that the horse could swallow the medicine.
Seeing Xie Guling's careful treatment of the horse, Zhou Rong stood aside and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to go to Shu Kingdom! If it weren't for the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flower Sample you provided, our army would not have a chain bow and crossbow." ”
Xie Guling patted his horse and stood up: "If Gu Ling had known earlier that they had a heavenly maiden scattered flowers, the Lord would not have encountered a poisonous hand that night." It's all Gu Ling's dereliction of duty!"
"How can this be blamed on you!" Zhou Rong paused and said, "Have you heard the news of the Divine Sword Tang Bi in Shu Kingdom recently?"
Xie Guling slowly shook his head: "Gu Ling has never heard of it. When he arrived in Shu, Gu Ling spent most of his time in the palace. Little is known about the outside world. ”
"Then you are familiar with Liu Jin?"
"It's a coincidence!" Xie Guling's voice was a little more naughty: "Gu Ling was entrusted by his mother this time!"
"Here?" Zhou Rong pointed to the pillow mountain in the dark.
"Hmm!" Xie Guling nodded: "There is a world of theirs underground!"
