Chapter 12: The Misty Forest
Half a month has passed since the assassination, and the hidden forces of Lionheart City have already spread the news, but it seems that none of the countries have reacted, and the information that was finally sent has finally disappeared like a stone. Fang Yuning finally accepted the results of the soldiers' investigation, released all the people brought back to the prison, and gave up continuing the investigation.
In the past half a month, Phantom Shiyang seems to have changed his door and stayed at home all day long, even Fang Yuning was a little afraid that he would suffocate his son, and offered to go out to play with Phantom Shiyang, but Phantom Shiyang still didn't agree.
What did the Illusory Liberation Yang study after meditating for half a month? No one knows yet.
Tian Bo, who has been unemployed for a while, came to the front hall to visit the Phantom Liberation Yang this day, and the garden pavilion compared his tightly wrapped Illusion Liberation Yang to something, and saw Tian Bo shouting to him with a long-lost smile.
"Uncle Tian, why haven't I seen you these days. After Tian Bo sat down on the bench in the garden pavilion, Illusion Yang couldn't wait to ask.
Tian Bo smiled and said: "Master doesn't know, I can't stay in the front hall for a long time, if the master doesn't go out, it's inconvenient for me to come." "Tian Bo still lives in the middle nave, and usually enters and exits through the side door.
"Then you came here today to see me!"
Tian Bo replied affirmatively: "Well, I will rest today, so I will inform my wife in advance, and I will come to the front hall to visit my master with my wife's permission." ”
I turned around and told my mother that you should also live in the front hall, and I saw that there was a vacant wing room in Grandpa Wu's residence, and you would live there when you turned around. Phantom Shiyang was a little aggrieved and said: "Uncle Tian, you don't know that my mother is always there, no one will hold me when I go to the Hexagonal Pagoda and the Middle Temple, it's too far away, I'm so tired and tired! ”
"I heard from Madame that the master has stayed at home and never left, how can I go to the Hexagonal Pagoda for what?" Tian Bo said with some surprise.
"Oh yes, I went out once, I didn't go out again because I was too tired, my mother wasn't at home at the time, I just went to the middle hall and the hexagonal tower to check the information, and planted something by the way, and didn't do anything bad!"
"Uncle Tian, can you take me to the Hexagonal Tower!" said the phantom release Yang coquettishly, he was afraid that Uncle Tian would be too rigid and not let him leave the courtyard.
"I can promise the host, but the host has to tell me how the wine was found to be poisonous in the restaurant that day, and I can't figure it out for a long time. "Actually, Fang Yuning just wanted Tian Bo to persuade Phantom Shiyang to go out today, Tian Bo just wanted to solve his doubts by the way.
"Easy! I'll tell you on the road now. Phantom Shiyang agreed.
Tian Bo stretched out his hand and picked up Phantom Shiyang and left the courtyard of Phantom North, Phantom Shiyang found a comfortable position in Tian Bo's arms, and asked Tian Bo instead: "Tian Bo, how do you think I found out that day?"
Tian Bo thought carefully and said, "I noticed before that the master had picked up the poisonous wine and smelled it, did you find it at that time?" ”
"I'm just curious to pick it up and smell it, it has nothing to do with this, guess again!" said Phantom Shiyang dissatisfied
"No... Didn't you tell me, master?" Tian Bo was asked at a loss.
"Forget it! At that time, I asked questions, and the guy said that it was sent by the shopkeeper. ”
"What's the problem?"
Phantom Shiyang waved his little fist and said, "That's right, we've been to that restaurant a few times, as long as the shopkeeper isn't stupid, he can see the relationship between our master and servant, right?"
"I talked to the shopkeeper and told him. In order to better protect the Illusion Liberation Yang, Tian Bo felt that he needed to understand some people he was in contact with frequently.
"That's not normal, Uncle Tian, let me ask you what I usually like to eat?"
Tian Bo was a little caught off guard and said: "The master is not a picky eater, he loves to eat everything." In fact, he originally wanted to say that Phantom Shiyang was very greedy and liked everything, but fortunately he changed his words in time.
How could Phantom Shiyang not understand the meaning of Tian Bo's words, and said embarrassedly: "What do you say again!" I asked me or children of my age what they like to eat, it can be fresh fruits, snacks, desserts, the shopkeeper knows that I am the host and guest, and it will naturally not be anything else that he likes, and he will send a pot of wine to the children. ”
"Then the master can't be sure that there is a problem because of this negligence! Maybe the shopkeeper forgot what I told him, or maybe he was too dull to give a jug of wine to each room without considering that the master was a child. ”
"You're right, it all makes sense, I even thought you might be familiar with the shopkeeper, so he gave it to you, but then the guy didn't go out directly after serving the food and didn't pour you wine, but poured it for me first. ”
Phantom Shiyang said eloquently: "Your wine glass is still empty, but the guy told me to taste it first, this is very strange, obviously seeing that it is a child, he still wants me to drink, if their restaurant from the shopkeeper to the guy is doing this business, it will not be a long time ago."
Tian Bo suddenly realized that he was in the same perspective as his buddy at that time, and in the eyes of adults, it was naturally not wrong to pour wine for the master first, but it was not that he still couldn't drink.
Tian Bo, who was opening his mouth, listened to the illusion of Shiyang again: "Of course, this is not inexplicable, it is possible that the shopkeeper and that guy are both stupid geese, what makes me really suspicious is that when I picked up the wine glass, I saw a little strange expression from the guy who was originally calm, it was nervous with a trace of excitement." ”
After looking around, he whispered, "The expression on my face is exactly the same as when I lied to my grandfather and mother. ”
"Then it's nothing, I guess if there's a problem with the wine, I'll let you feed it to him, and the guy spit on the ground and burp directly! It's disgusting, but the good thing is that even if I guess wrong, it's just a drink for the guy, and it's not a trouble. At this time, the smiling illusion of the release of the sun made people can't help but have the illusion of immortality, as if it was not him who was poisoned by someone half a month ago.
Tian Bo seemed to have adapted to these often unreasonable ideas of Phantom Shiyang, but he was amazed by Phantom Shiyang's amazing observation, and the two walked for a long time, and Tian Bo suddenly stopped.
This is already the apse, and in front of Tian Bo is a misty forest, Tian Bo did not dare to continue forward, and asked: "Master, have you informed the Sixth Elder of the communication jade slip, and told him to come and pick us up." ”
"No, I know that Grandpa Zhao doesn't need to pick us up, you just need to move forward. Illusion Yang replied naturally.
"But the misty forest is full of free-range spirit beasts, as well as the phantom family's clan beast flame lion, which is really a bit dangerous, and I am afraid that I will not be able to protect the safety of my master at that time. ”
"I know them all, they're cute, don't worry I won't let them attack you. Phantom Shiyang grinned.
"I think it's better to wait for Madame to come back and inform the Sixth Elder before picking you up, and we'll go to other places first. Tian Bo still said uneasily, there are nearly a thousand spirit beasts raised by the Phantom Family in the Misty Forest, but simple domestication will not get out of the Misty Forest, but retaining the beast nature will still take the initiative to attack humans.
"Uncle Tian, you have a lot of nonsense today, I walked by myself last time, don't worry! Take me in. Illusion Shiyang pointed to the misty forest in front of him with one hand, and wrapped his other hand around Tian Bo's neck and urged
Tian Bo knew that he couldn't resist the Illusory Release, so he gritted his teeth and headed towards the Misty Forest, only hoping that the Illusory Releasee Yang didn't deceive him, otherwise the two of them would become the food of the spirit beasts in the Misty Forest.
Tian Bo, who was holding the Illusory Liberation Yang in the misty forest, walked slowly and tremblingly, he had already noticed that several pairs of vicious eyes had been staring at him, and suddenly Tian Bo felt that his shoulder was touched by something, and hurriedly dodged and moved two steps to the other side, but when he turned his eyes and looked back, it turned out to be the hand of the Illusion Liberation Yang.
Tian Bo, who was relieved, heard his master smiling and asked him, "Tian Bo, are you afraid?"
Tian Bo replied weakly: "I'm not afraid, I just subconsciously hid just now." After speaking, he continued to walk forward, his pace still slow and steady.
"But Uncle Tian, the sweat on your forehead has flowed down to me, are you okay?" said with a concerned expression on his face.
"The forest is too hot, and the clothes I wear are thicker, so they don't get in the way. Tian Bo continued to hold on, as if facing a great enemy, he thought that he would send his master to the hexagonal tower desperately.
"Go away, you scared my uncle. After shouting a few times at the surroundings, Illusion Shiyang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Tian Bo is afraid that you will say it, I will protect you, I said that I know them." ”
Tian Bo began to gradually feel that the hostility around him was slowly decreasing, and looking around at the fog forest seemed to have returned to its previous peaceful state, he was scared half to death, and he did not complain, but added a little sigh to the master's magic,
But then again, if Tian Bo can fully trust Illusion Shiyang, he doesn't have to be scared like this.
"I didn't lie to you, right!" Phantom Shiyang said proudly, Tian Bo didn't say anything and walked forward faster, but Phantom Shiyang didn't care, he knew that Tian Bo was not good at words, and he wouldn't admit that he was really scared by the spirit beast just now, and he wouldn't admit it, Phantom Shiyang thought that this was normal, and felt that Tian Bo must have been more identified with him as a master at this time, and couldn't help but feel a lot more proud.
After passing through some dense woods, the two finally came to Hantan, and after being put in the open space in front of Hantan by Tian Bo, Phantom Shiyang ran to Hantan, and before he could see clearly how he touched the mechanism, a stone staircase passage leading to the middle hexagonal tower appeared on Hantan.
The illusion of Shiyang, who opened the passage, turned around and wanted to pull Tian Bo into the tower together, but Tian Bo refused: "I can't enter the tower with my identity, if I violate it, I will be severely punished, and the master can only go in by himself, so I will stay here and wait for you." ”
