Chapter 12: The Unbelievable Crow
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little more relieved.
At night, when I fell asleep, my mind tossed and turned, I thought a lot, and in my thoughts, I fell asleep. In the middle of the night, there was a sudden "Ah! Yes! The scream woke me up from my sleep.
Although life and death have long been put aside, when I hear this incomparably penetrating voice, I can't help but feel a chill in my back. So, I hurriedly shouted: "Moyu, Moyu!" ā
Moyu lived outside my dormitory, and after she heard me calling her, she quickly put on her clothes, and in a few moments, she came to my side, her eyes were full of wariness, "Girl, what's wrong?" What's going on? ā
"Did you hear the crow of the crow?"
After listening to it for a while, Mo Yu heard the oozing voice just like me.
Mo Yu's brows couldn't help frowning tightly, and she replied, "Girl, I did hear it, but this voice is strange. Sounds like it's sending some kind of code! ā
I couldn't help but be surprised, "What did you say?" In this palace, could there be anyone secretly transmitting signals? ā
"The slave doesn't know this very well, but we can go out and check it out!" Mo Yu ti yƬ said.
"Okay, I'll go with you!" I know that this palace does not seem to be so peaceful on the surface, and there must be some secret hidden in it, otherwise the Queen Mother would not have sent us.
The palace in the middle of the night is extremely quiet, so quiet that it seems that a needle has fallen can be heard. It is precisely because of this that the sound of "ah~~ah~~" is particularly harsh.
Mo Yu and I followed the sound of crows chirping all the way to a ruined palace.
The palace looked like a cold palace, and the whole thing looked empty. There were hardly any guards or maidens to be seen all the way, the ground was covered with withered leaves and flowers, and the sound of the rope was heard when stepping on the ground, which showed that no one had cleaned it for a long time, and a gust of wind blew, rolling up the leaves and scattering them everywhere, making this desolate palace even more dilapidated and mysterious.
Fortunately, there is a rockery in front of the palace, which allows us to hide in the back for a while and watch the scene in front of us.
After observing for a while, she said to me, "Girl, you wait here first, and the slave will go over the wall to check it out!" You might be able to find out something! ā
Although I don't doubt Moyu's martial arts, after all, this matter came in a strange way, and I am afraid that I will fall into unknown danger if I climb over the wall and enter it inexplicably.
I hurriedly stopped Mo Yu and whispered, "Don't act rashly! Now we don't know what's inside, and if you go in like this, you're doing a lot of harm and not benefiting. ā
Mo Yu is still quite confident in her martial arts, but she is definitely not a useless reckless man, after she weighed the pros and cons a little, she understood the truth. She nodded and replied in a low voice, "What the girl said is reasonable, let's wait and talk about it first!" ā
After a short time, we saw two figures, coming this way, in this palace, the bright immortal heaven was lit all night long, and it would never break. So, we looked at the figures of those two people very carefully.
The purple clothes under the night sky exuded a charming atmosphere. In this mansion, who else can there be besides Liu Ruyue, who is named the right lady?
Looking at her again, there is a woman carrying a lantern to light the way in front of her, don't think about it, it must be her personal maid Cuiyun.
"What are the two of them doing here in the middle of the night?" Mo Yu frowned and asked questions first.
I thought about Liu Ruyue's attitude towards Moyu before, and I felt that she would not be a fine work sent by the Queen Mother, otherwise, why would she embarrass Moyu? Or am I guessing wrong, they're acting at all? But after I thought about it carefully, I felt that this possibility was very small, even if the Queen Mother sent a fine work, after having me and Moyu, she also sent another Bo Mei'er, isn't this enough?
"I think the reason why the two of them came here is probably because they were awakened by the crow's cry like us, and they came here after following the sound!" I spoke softly and spoke my thoughts.
However, the bird's call is clearly a kind of code, although the slave and maid do not understand the meaning, but they also know that it will definitely not be understood by ordinary people! Girl, is this Liu Ruyue also a person with a background? ā
Mo Yu expressed her doubts, my eyes rolled slightly, I thought about it carefully, and said: "What is her identity, or what is her background, we just need to test it and come out!" Moyu, do you want to take revenge for your previous revenge? ā
Mo Yu was slightly stunned, then understood, she smiled lightly, and said, "Girl, if you can take revenge, the slave is naturally willing." ā
When she said this, we both understood what each other meant. I picked up a small pebble on the ground and handed it to Mo Yu's hand, smiling evilly, "Can you throw this pebble on the vermilion lacquer gate that has faded?" ā
"Don't worry, girl, this kind of thing is a piece of cake for slaves!" After Mo Yu finished speaking, he just raised his hand slightly, and the small stone smashed right on the vermilion lacquer gate impartially.
Although the stone is small, Moyu also uses full strength, so when he touches the vermilion lacquer gate, "Peng! There was a loud bang!
In this dark night, the whole palace seemed silent, and in addition, there were crows fluttering their black wings on the walls of the palace and constantly chirping, and from time to time, black feathers flew down and fell at the feet of the two, there was a creepy feeling.
"Cuiyun, what's that sound? Did you hear that? When the black feather of the faint crow fell at Liu Ruyue's feet, her whole person felt messy in an instant, screamed, kept jumping her feet, and grabbed Cuiyun tightly, her face was already full of panic.
Cuiyun is just a little girl in the end, and the reason why she was so arrogant a few days ago was because of Liu Ruyue behind her. And now, after she saw her master so panicked and lost, she was even more masterless, and her whole body trembled, "Master, don't scare the slave and maid, the slave and maid didn't hear anything!" ā
"Didn't you hear anything?" Liu Ruyue seemed to have regained her momentum at this moment, after all, in front of her subordinates, she was not good at pretending to be too timid.
"The slave just heard it, it came from the vermilion lacquer gate! Master, do you want to go and see it? Cuiyun pointed to the vermilion lacquer gate; Although the other hand held the lantern, it was obvious that the faint orange light was also trembling slightly.
