【Lost】
53, [Lost]
Mu Zhaojiao took so many girls into the orchard in the eastern suburbs and went directly into the peach blossom forest.
This peach blossom forest is a little troublesome...... Because the peach trees are relatively low and sparse. Therefore, it is not easy to hide, so Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang can only find a place to hide in the outer woods, climb to a place where the canopy is denser at a high place, and see the situation below.
Zhanzhao squatted on the branch of a tall tree, frowning - he could see people clearly, but he couldn't hear the voice.
Bai Yutang stood behind Zhanzhao and leaned into his ear to look at it, "What are a large group of people doing in the peach forest in the middle of the night?" ”
Zhan Zhao turned his face and saw his face beside him, and by the way, he sighed that Bai Yutang's skin was so good, "Do you think that Xing'er was awake for a while just now?" ”
Bai Yutang looked at him, and sighed that Zhanzhao's skin was so good, "You mean she is not awake most of the time?" ”
"It's a little weird that this country of eyes suddenly appeared, I've never heard of it before." Zhan Zhao said, "I have heard a lot of strange things in the southeast and northwest since I was a child, but I am obsessed with flowers or something, which is unheard of. ”
"You haven't heard of it, but Master Bao may not have heard of it, and there is also the Eighth Prince." Bai Yutang reminded.
"The three of them have been mysterious since they heard about 'Peach Blossom Niang'." Zhan Zhao hugged his arms, "What can connect the three of them is probably some old things, or some things about the royal family." ”
Bai Yutang nodded, his chin resting on Zhanzhao's shoulder.
Zhan Zhao looked back at him, what did that mean?
Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows - tired, rest for a while.
Zhan Zhao was speechless, but it was rare to see him so relaxed, he was always tense, and he was quite cute at this time.
As soon as he thought of the word "cute", Zhanzhao began to shake his head - he was cranky again!
In his ears, there was a chuckle from Bai Yutang.
Zhan Zhao had never heard him laugh like this, and looked at him with squinted eyes - he was really relaxed, squinting slightly at himself, those peach blossom eyes, tsk.
The two were looking at each other, and they heard someone behind them ask, "You two have three watches in the middle of the night, it's quite emotional?" ”
……
The voice was in the ears of the two of them, but the key was that Zhanzhao Bai Yutang didn't notice that there was someone behind him at all, but fortunately he heard that the voice was familiar, so he didn't make a big movement.
When he looked back, sure enough, he saw Yin Hou squatting on the branch behind them with his arms crossed, tilting his head to look at the two.
"Grandpa." Zhanzhao was surprised, Marquis Yin disappeared after breaking up in Xizhou Mansion before, and he really came to Kaifeng when he dared to love.
"Good." When Marquis Yin saw Zhanzhao calling someone, he smiled, and glanced at Bai Yutang by the way.
Bai Yutang naturally also knew each other, and called his grandfather with Zhanzhao.
Yin Hou pounced over to hug him, opened his mouth and said, "Good ......"
But he didn't hug it, and the collar of his clothes called Zhan Zhao to grab it, and Zhan Zhao warned him with his eyes - don't take advantage of it!
Yin Hou squinted his eyes, leaned between the two and looked into the distance, and then understood, "Oh? I said you two were sneaky, and it turned out to be following a group of girls' homes. ”
Zhan Zhao was embarrassed.
Yin Hou crossed his arms and looked around for a while, wondering, "Huh? Why are those girls so stupid that they haven't woken up in the middle of the night? ”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and Zhan Zhao leaned over to Yin Hou's side, "Grandpa, what are they talking about, can you hear it?" ”
Yin Hou touched his chin, "What are you talking about, plan to change ......?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, and looked at Yin Hou together, "Can you hear me?" ”
Yin Hou pouted, "It's not very far, how can you see it and not hear it." ”
Zhan Zhao frowned, Bai Yutang also felt that Yin Hou was powerful, but it might be a problem of internal force.
"Tsk." Yin Hou smiled and asked, "No?" Wouldn't you just ask, do you want to teach a missionary? ”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a little awkward - not because they embarrassed Yin Houjiao, but because Yin Hou was too embarrassed.
Zhan Zhao looked at Yin Hou and leaned in front of him, "Then do you teach or not?" ”
Yin Hou immediately smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed to the front of his ear near his cheek, "There is a tendon here, and the internal force can be passed, and it will be ...... You will know the effect of the road. ”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, reached out and touched their ears, and really felt that there seemed to be veins here...... The two of them are absolute prodigies in martial arts, and they quickly understood what Yin Hou meant. It's also strange to say, after the luck passed, the surrounding sounds suddenly became clear, and the sound of the words in the peach blossom forest in the distance could also be heard clearly.
She seemed to be throwing a tantrum, "What the hell are you going to do?" asked you to arrest people, and even the maids of Bai Yutang's family were arrested, and now I missed a big thing, and I don't know how to explain to the master! ”
Bai Yutang frowned - master?
The person who talked to Mu Zhaojiao was an old woman, who should have been waiting in the peach blossom forest before, dressed in black, and at first glance thought it was an old mother who was a helper, so look carefully...... It looks a little weird, it looks a bit like a pig, how ugly it is.
Yin Hou put one arm on the shoulders of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, and looked at the peach blossom forest, "I haven't been watching you for a few days, why did you get into that trouble?" ”
Zhan Zhao was curious, "What's the trouble?" ”
Yin Hou knocked on Zhanzhao's head, and suddenly reached out to rub his face, which was similar to Zhanzhao's usual action of rubbing the little fourth son, "You don't know that old woman?" ”
Zhan Zhao pressed his face and looked at Bai Yutang, what does that mean-do you know that old woman?
Bai Yutang shook his head, this old woman didn't see any major problems except that her face was a little wrinkled than that of ordinary old women.
"Ugh." Yin Hou sighed, held his chin and said, "That wrinkled old woman has some backgrounds, her surname is Zhu, her real name is Zhu Yan, and she is known as the pig face ghost woman." ”
Zhan Zhao was stunned, and Bai Yutang also frowned - they had heard the name Pig-faced Ghost Woman.
"It's the notorious pig-faced ghost woman who is proficient in spiritualism." Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Didn't you say that she was killed because she hurt someone?" ”
"This old woman has a good threshold, and she killed her head back then because there were too many enemies, and a golden cicada came out of her shell, but then she disappeared after going to the west." Yin Hou touched his chin, "This old woman also wanted to join the Demon Palace before, but she was not right-hearted, and the most important thing is that she likes to betray her friends, she is a repeated villain, and she ran away after being injured by your Aunt Hong." Your Aunt Hong almost caught her and split her body, but unfortunately she escaped quickly with cunning. ”
"Oh......" Zhanzhao nodded, I don't know if there is such a thing in Lu Dao, but even if you count the age, this ghost woman must be more than a hundred years old.
Bai Yutang was quite curious, and asked Zhanzhao, "In addition to Aunt Lan, there is also Aunt Hong?" ”
Zhan Zhao smiled, "There are a total of seven aunts in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple!" ”
Bai Yutang looked at the sky - the Demon Palace has a large population......
"Soul ......" Zhan Zhao heard some signs and asked Yin Hou, "Those girls are dumbfounded, are they also in the soul technique?" ”
Yin Hou stretched out his hands, "Soul dementorship is such a thing, unless you have deep internal strength, it is easy to be hit." However, if people are relatively strong, or simply have no distractions, it is not easy to get hit, and the most afraid is that there is something in the heart that can't be opened. ”
"Apricot is trapped by love, and it should be easy for people to take advantage of it." Zhan Zhao nodded.
Bai Yutang felt that Xing'er should be rescued, but since there was an owner behind her, it meant that Mu Zhaojiao and the ghost woman were both little minions, and they needed to lure out the people behind the scenes.
"Since Bai Yutang already has doubts about us, we must get rid of this girl." Mu Zhaojiao said to the ghost woman, "You let her do it herself, clean her hands and feet, and don't leave any trouble." ”
The pig-faced ghost woman nodded, took out a silver bell from her sleeve, and shook it lightly at the apricot, who was originally stupid, raised her head and looked at the ghost woman.
The ghost woman beckoned to her and walked forward, and Apricot followed behind.
Bai Yutang felt that it was inappropriate, and if something happened, he would follow.
Yin Hou waved his hand lightly, signaling them to continue to keep an eye here, and he just went to save people.
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao nodded, and Yin Hou disappeared.
Zhan Zhao patted Bai Yutang on the shoulder, "Don't worry, grandpa can not only save Xing'er, but also sneak the ghost woman back." ”
Bai Yutang nodded, of course he believed in Yin Hou.
The two continued to listen, and then they saw that they had their hands behind their backs and looked at the sky, "The hour is almost up, and at this time, there are two other women dressed as attendants, holding a big black bag, and put it in front of the girls, and put it down.
As she unwrapped the baggage, the girls walked over and picked up the contents of the black baggage.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at it carefully—like a black night robe.
Then the girls began to change their clothes as if no one was around.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned and turned their faces - they really fell for the soul dementorship.
When the girls finished changing their clothes and went to the baggage, one of them drew a dagger.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang in surprise - can you do kung fu?
Bai Yutang frowned and shook his head - Anyway, Xing'er won't, these few, I don't know what to do, but it doesn't seem to be either.
With a wave of her hand, the girls scattered in all directions and went their separate ways.
"...... who went separately," Bai Yutang wondered.
Zhan Zhao was also puzzled, "Seeing that they are moving slowly, it really doesn't look like they will have high martial arts, what are they doing with knives in the middle of the night?" ”
Bai Yutang spread his hands, there were only two of them with so many people, so naturally he didn't know who Lu Dao was staring at, so he had to stare at Mu Zhaojiao.
But Mu Zhaojiao seemed to be waiting for the ghost woman to come back, and he couldn't wait left and right, so he frowned, "Why is it so slow, it takes so long to kill a girl." ”
The attendant whispered, "Imperial envoy, let's go back to the pavilion first, if we don't go back for too long, it will be easy to arouse the suspicion of Song Bing." ”
Mu Zhaojiao sighed, nodded, didn't wait for the ghost woman, and left with his entourage.
Zhan Zhao smiled, "It seems that the relationship between each other is not very good." ”
"Normal." Bai Yutang said in a low voice, "That eye looks pretentious, and the pig-faced ghost woman is notorious, so she shouldn't be able to get into her eyes." ”
As he was talking, he heard a voice not far away, and when Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang listened carefully, they heard it, "Spare your life, Marquis Yin's life...... I'll get out of the Central Plains and don't take half a step, spare my life......"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other and jumped off the tree.
In the moonlight, I saw Yin Hou walking over with his hands behind his back, followed by Xing'er who was patting his head, and the pig-faced ghost woman who begged for mercy while following.
Xing'er's expression was a lot clearer at this time, she patted her head, it seemed that her neck was still hurting, and when she looked up and saw Bai Yutang, she was stunned.
"Young Master!" Apricot screamed.
Bai Yutang nodded, it seems that this girl is awake.
"It hurts." Apricot rubbed her neck.
Bai Yutang looked at the back of her neck, there was a red dot, which seemed to be injured.
"It's okay, is it?" Bai Yutang asked.
Xing'er hurriedly shook her head and glanced at Yin Hou, "I almost jumped off the cliff just now, thanks to him for saving me." ”
Bai Yutang nodded, no matter how familiar Yin Hou was with him, but after all, he should thank him for saving his girl.
Yin Hou waved his hand so that Bai Yutang didn't have to be polite, glanced back at the ghost woman, and smiled lightly, "Your life is really long." ”
The ghost woman was lying on the ground trembling at this time, begging for mercy, what kind of eyes and beads, I don't know if the Marquis of Yin Dao is coming...... In short, all the New Year's greetings have been said, just begging Marquis Yin not to kill himself.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang stood silently aside, although the pig-faced ghost woman had a bad reputation, she was also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, and it was really ...... to see that Yin Hou was afraid of becoming like this
Yin Hou tilted his head at Zhan Zhao, what does that mean-ask.
Zhan Zhao asked the ghost woman, "Who are you and what is your purpose?" What is it to confuse those girls? ”
The pig-faced ghost woman flattened her mouth and said in a low voice, "Actually, after I was expelled from the Central Plains Martial Arts, I have been living in the southwest, and my life has been difficult...... So I went.
"Muzhaoguo asked you to be a national teacher?" Yin Hou sounded fresh, "That king has a strong taste." ”
The ghost woman muttered, "The king of this Zhaoguo wears a mask all day long, but her martial arts are extremely high and cunning, she has recruited many strange people, and it seems that she has a plan, and I am just one of them." ”
"What are you plotting?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"Then I don't know what to do, but neither of us is directly under the orders of the king, but another person." The ghost woman frowned and shook her head, "That's also a strange person. ”
"Who is it?" Zhan Zhao asked, his heart said that you are refreshing, ask a sentence and say a word to death.
"I don't know her real name, she is a young girl, but she has extraordinary ability, everyone calls her ......" The ghost woman said this, and paused, "Peach Blossom Niangniang." ”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other - isn't it such a coincidence?
looked at Yin Hou again, squatting and pounding the ground, "Peach Blossom Niangniang...... Ha Lu Ha. ”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also understood that Yin Hou was so happy to laugh, it was indeed quite funny.
"By the way, what is the purpose of you arresting so many girls who are trapped in love and using the soul dementorship to manipulate them?" Zhanzhao looked at Xing'er and asked the ghost woman.
"It was Mu Zhaojiao who asked me to do it, I listened to her, she originally planned to assassinate the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty."
"What?" Zhan Zhao was taken aback, thinking of the girls in black just now, "Those girls just left with their blades, didn't they enter the palace to assassinate?" ”
The ghost woman shook her head, "No, I originally planned to take it by surprise and leave a few girls in the palace, but I didn't expect it to arouse suspicion and almost delay the big event, so the plan changed." ”
"What has changed?" Zhan Zhao asked.
The ghost woman frowned, "Yes...... Let those girls go to the negative man to take revenge, and then kill themselves. ”
was said by the ghost woman, Zhanzhao immediately remembered Cao Jian and Huang Ruiyun who stole the beams and changed the pillars, didn't the two of them know what to say? I came up with this trick.
However, if these girls commit murder with a knife and then commit suicide without realizing it, it is too innocent, and this is ruthless enough.
Zhan Zhao patted Bai Yutang and signaled that he wanted to go back to Kaifeng Mansion to bring more people to find those girls, and Bai Yutang nodded and wanted to go back with him.
At this time, I heard Yin Hou say leisurely behind him, "What, Yutang, your master is also here." ”
As soon as Yin Hou's words fell, Bai Yutang's footsteps stopped and looked back at him, "My master is here too?" ”
Yin Hou touched his chin and looked at the sky, "He entered the Kaifeng City Gate with me in the afternoon." ”
"Tianzun is here too?" Zhan Zhao was very happy that he could finally meet this strange man, "He didn't come with you?" Did you go to Baifu? ”
"Ahem." Yin Hou muttered, "I was indeed with me just now......"
Bai Yutang gasped, "He's lost again?" ”
Yin Hou snapped his fingers and pointed at Bai Yutang, "That's right." ”
Bai Yutang held his forehead, "Here we go again." ”
Zhan Zhao wondered - could it be that Tianzun is like himself, a direction idiot?
Bai Yutang patted Zhan Zhao, "You go to find those women, and I'll go find my master." ”
Zhan Zhao saw that he seemed to be very worried, so he comforted, "Don't worry, Kaifeng is very safe, even if you get lost, Tianzun should find an inn to stay in for a night, and I will send someone to help you find it at dawn." “
Bai Yutang shook his head vigorously and sighed, "You must find it within an hour." ”
Zhan Zhao was slightly stunned, "What are you doing?" ”
Bai Yutang was powerless, "If he gets lost for more than an hour, then the consequences are unimaginable." “
Zhanzhao opened his mouth wide, "What will be the consequences?" ”
On the side, Yin Hou scratched the back of his head and sighed, "In short, it is a very serious ......."
……
At the entrance of the palace, a man in white looked up at the closed gate and the carved eaves, and touched his chin.
The evening breeze blew the silver threads on his head, and he heard him speak quietly, "The inn in Kaifeng is really magnificent!" ”
I touched my waist - I didn't bring any money.
I thought about it - let's sneak in and live first, and let Yutang pay for it tomorrow morning.
