Chapter 202: Devil's Creek
"It seems that this person should have won the trust of the princess, otherwise he wouldn't have been poisoned, Yichen saw that he should find this murderer quickly, lest he continue to persecute the princess when he gets it."
Hearing Yuenu say this, Rong Heng's whole heart also went up and down.
He always felt that things were not so simple.
While thinking about it while leaving the Linhua Palace, the moon slave stood in place at a loss, and then caught up with him: "Wait for me, Your Highness!" β
In the dark, there was silence.
In the midst of peace, there was only the buzz of crickets and bees.
There is silence everywhere, the wind chimes under the eaves make a crisp jingle bell with the wind, and the gentle lights seem to light up a glimmer of hope for the night sky in the dark night sky.
Rong Hengzheng was in a depressed mood, and a few crows were hovering above the eaves, and the noise was really annoying.
He hurried to Gu Tianran's residence, and before he could knock on the door, he opened the room, and in an instant, the candle that had been extinguished was lit again.
After looking around the house, it was time to rest in the dead of night, but Gu Tianran was not in the house, and disappeared mysteriously.
Walking to the couch, there is still the residual warmth of the person on it, indicating that Fang has been lying down.
But now it is empty, and the child in the cradle is gone.
The black lights outside are blind, and you can't see your fingers, what will Gu Tianran do with her children?
He vaguely felt as if something big was about to happen, and he searched around the yard but couldn't find anyone, so he instructed the moon slave next to him: "Go and check the entry and exit records of the entire house, and you will definitely find them!" β
Yue Nu knew that in fact, when Rong Heng came to Gu Tianran, he must have had a premonition, so his calculation was not wrong.
Where will the two big living people go?
In fact, not only Rong Heng, but Yue Nu is also very worried, there have always been people who want to harm His Royal Highness and Gu Tianran, he is afraid that Gu Tianran's mother and son will have another accident.
In fact, the yard is not big, but it is not small.
With everyone gathered, the moon slave searched the yard up and down.
But after looking for a long time and still to no avail, the moon slave didn't know how to explain to Rong Heng.
Outside, the lights were dark, and a woman who had just given birth and a baby were gone.
It's ridiculous......
Rong Heng couldn't sit still, pacing back and forth in the hall, and the family and maidservants were also frightened.
The moon slave finally came back, and when Rong Heng saw this, he had never stepped forward in such a hurry: "How?" β
Seeing his anxious look, the moon slave didn't know how to answer him: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't found any trace of their mother and son." β
Didn't find any traces?
Rong Heng's heart tightened, and his deep eyes were even more gloomy and terrifying: "Are you sure you haven't found any clues?" β
"Hmmm......"
How is this possible, how can two big living people disappear from the yard?
He is so anxious now, but it is also possible that he has thought too much, Shu'er is naturally playful, maybe he is taking Gu Tianran somewhere to play.
Yes, that's right, for sure!
He felt that it should be so, and he didn't know if this was the truth or if he was lying to himself, but even so, Rong Heng's worries did not disappear.
By the way, the dagger Gu Tiltan that he gave before has always been carried with him, and he will definitely feel it if something goes wrong.
But now, he hasn't heard anything at all.
Does that mean that the situation of their mother and son is safe, which is exactly what he thinks.
The more he thought about it, the more he worried, and Rong Heng's mood couldn't be calm no matter what.
"According to the opinion of my subordinates, if you can't find it in the yard, then go outside and look for it."
Rong Heng's brows furrowed, and he was thinking about the solution to the matter, Yue Nu, but this proposal is not bad.
There was a slight sound from the tiles above the roof, and Rong Heng moved his sharp and sensitive ears, and instantly noticed that there were people on the roof.
"Who dares to trespass on my territory?"
Now that he had been recognized, the man who was hiding in the shadows no longer hid and jumped off the roof.
The guards and housekeepers in the courtyard picked up the guy in their hands and looked at the man in black of unknown origin.
Yuenu recognized the identity of this man in black at a glance, and if I am not mistaken, she is a Susu person.
"You...... You were sent here quickly, right? Do you dare to play these little tricks in front of Your Highness, and you are not afraid of death? β
The man in black glanced at him silently, and then turned his gaze to Rong Heng: "It's rude, Your Highness, but I don't think you should do anything to me without knowing the whereabouts of Gu Tianran and the child, right?" β
Only then did the moon slave suddenly realize: "It's really too despicable, it turns out that you are doing it?" β
All of this turned out to be a ghost made by Su Su, but it doesn't make sense no matter where you think about it.
His Royal Highness didn't offend Su Su, why did Su Su kidnap Gu Tianran and His Royal Highness?
"Hehe, Your Highness, my master asked me to convey a word to you, she is waiting for you in Devil's Creek, if you don't go on time or don't go, we can't guarantee that something will be done."
Rong Heng squinted his eyes, at this time, he was thinking about how to rescue Gu Tianran and Shu'er, but he didn't have a clue in his mind.
Especially knowing that all this was a good thing for Su Sugan, he was even more puzzled in his heart.
The man in black smiled at the two of them again, jumped onto the roof, and disappeared into the night sky.
Devil's Creek, whose name is associated with the place where it is located, is not only dilapidated, but also eerie, and there are many demons and gods who have violated the regulations of the Three Realms.
It's not an exaggeration to say it's hell, and the never-ending nights make your scalp tingle even if you go there for a short time.
Even if there are demons and gods who break the rules, they would rather be wiped out than go to Devil's Creek.
What kind of purgatory is that, Rong Heng knows better than anyone else.
Now that he heard that Gu Tianran's mother and son were actually in such a place, he only felt that his scalp was numb, and he hoped that nothing would happen to them.
"It seems that this king has to go to Devil's Creek."
Yue Nu frowned: "I can completely understand His Highness's feelings, and the princess and His Royal Highness must also be saved, but I am afraid that Su Su is scheming, His Royal Highness must be careful, besides, I still feel uneasy......"
Rong Heng knew what he meant, it was nothing more than wanting to make himself think twice, after all, in a place like Devil's Creek, the road was very dangerous, let alone meeting Su Su when the time came.
"There is no need to persuade this king, since this king has made up his mind, he must go and rescue their mother and son, and ...... another"
He hesitated for a moment, then made a startling conjecture and decision: "If I have any three long and two short, they will be handed over to you." β
"No, it won't!"
Yue Nu had never dared to yell at Rong Heng like this, but when he heard Rong Heng say such words, he was really angry.
He will be fine, he is the invincible, high-spirited, courageous and heroic Highness!
The moon slave has been with him for so long, and he has never seen him gain such a frustrating word.
Rong Heng will never be at the mercy of anyone, and naturally he will not be bound by anything.
But now it's different, Gu Tianran and Shu'er are the most important people in his life, and they are also a bond.
Rong Heng and Su Su have never been familiar with each other, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, but this time he finally knew that Su Su was not a good person.
Moreover, Su Su is cunning and changeable, and he is really clever, and he actually abducted Gu Tianran from the secret guards sent by Rong Heng to protect Gu Tianran.
"The only person this king believes in now is you, remember what this king just said."
The moon slave, who has always been brave and responsible, couldn't withstand Rong Heng's toss like parting with life and death, and his eyes were full of tears: "Subordinate...... Fulfill the mission! β
Devil's Creek is indeed dark and terrifying.
It was pitch black, you couldn't see your fingers, and there was the stench of rotting corpses everywhere.
There are no plants here, there is dead grass everywhere, and even if you see one or two flowers of bewitching colors, it is fake, it is an illusion.
An isolated border, filled with the smell of death.
Gu Tianran was not familiar with this place at all, but he was sure that this was another world entirely, and the darkness was too depressing.
Shu'er was being held in the crook of her arm by Gu Tilt at this time.
And Su Su, who brought them here, stood under the moon and read the ballad, and it was difficult for ordinary people to understand the meaning of the ballad.
"Want to know the reason for tying you up?" After reading for a while, she seemed to feel a little tired, and Su Su suddenly stopped and looked at the mother and son and said with a sneer.
But Gu Tianran didn't want to deal with her: "If you like to talk about it, if you don't talk about it, I don't have time to chat with you here." β
Her tone was pleasant, and Su Su was not angry: "Don't be annoyed, girl, you didn't know me Su Su on the first day, all this is the fate between the two of us, why do you bother to show me." β
Gu Tianran didn't bother to talk to her at all, if it weren't for the sake of the child, he wouldn't want to talk to her at all.
"Okay, since you said that it is the fate between the two of us, it is the business of the two of us, so why bother with other innocent people? Can you send my child out first? β
Su Su lowered her eyes and looked at the child in her arms, Devil's Creek was extremely yin, and Shu'er couldn't bear the breath here at all, so she fainted temporarily.
Gu Tianran did plead with her from the bottom of her heart, but her goal was not achieved, how could she let her go?
"You are really as naΓ―ve as before, don't be delusional, none of you want to leave."
Hearing this, Gu Tianran glared angrily, it was not her son who was in a coma now, of course she could be casual, as a mother, Su Su couldn't understand such pain at all.
She really wanted to rush up and fight to the death with Su Su, but reality didn't allow her to do so, and she was now imprisoned by the spell enchantment, and without Su Su, she couldn't leave this circle at all.
"Why?"
Su Su's slender and white hand was placed on his mouth, covering his mouth and snickering: "Why, I believe you will know soon, and when Rong Heng comes, it will not be too late for you to know." β
Suddenly there was silence, and even the sound of flies in the air could be heard.
A weird smile rose at the corner of Su Su's mouth, and the evil peach blossom eyes suddenly lit up, as if he was exclaiming: "He likes you so much, he can even come alone in a place like Devil's Creek, in the end, what is he worried about......?"
Here it comes? Is it really coming?
Gu Tianran was imprisoned in place, and naturally he couldn't pay attention to the surrounding situation, and only heard Su Su talking to himself there.
It was as if there was a real sound going around, getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer......
Gu Tianran's eyes were spinning back and forth in his sockets, and his heart was pounding, he was really here.
The fresh and elegant floral fragrance on his body will never be forgotten by Gu Tianran in his life.
Gu Tianran should have known about it a long time ago.
Su Su's purpose in approaching him was to take revenge on Rong Heng.
Now, Su Su directly stopped pretending and used her and the child's lives to threaten Rong Heng.
Gu Tianran's heart was mixed.
She really wanted to escape from this ghost place with her children, but she didn't want Rong Heng to risk it for them.
Su Su didn't seem to be able to wait, otherwise she wouldn't have forced Rong Heng to show up in this way, but she must be fully prepared.
"Give you a chance, don't embarrass their mother and son." After Rong Heng landed, he calmly walked towards Susu.
"You've finally appeared."
When Su Su heard this, he stared at him intently, but in his eyes that should have been excited, he was indifferent.
"You want to see this king so much, this king has already done what you want, what is not satisfied?"
As if he had heard an interesting joke, Su Su stole a wink: "There are many places I am dissatisfied with, I don't know which one His Highness is referring to." Besides, why should I listen to whatever His Highness says? β
There is no room for negotiation at all, Rong Heng is really desperate, how can he be willing to let go.
"Your purpose? And your conditions? β
After finishing speaking, Su Sujiao smiled and pretended to be contemplative: "My purpose is very simple, that is, Your Highness, you will die." If you want me not to embarrass them, you can kill yourself by jumping from Devil's Creek right away! β
"Rong Heng, don't believe her!" Gu Tianran shouted anxiously, his head shaking desperately.
She was not familiar with the place of Devil's Creek, but looking at the surrounding environment and Su Su's tone just now, she could know that Devil's Creek must be a dangerous area.
If Rong Heng jumped from this place, he would definitely have no bones.
The surroundings were extremely dark and eerie, what kind of danger was hidden behind this Devil's Creek, Gu Tianran didn't know, but she felt that it must be even more terrifying.
Su Su's intention was to make Rong Heng die without a place to be buried.
"If you don't agree, I will let Gu Tianran and this child replace you, you die or they die, choose your own path, I don't have much patience, don't mess with me."
"And ...... Rong Heng, I know that you are scheming, and if you dare to come to see me alone, you are naturally fully prepared, but I warn you, don't try to play any tricks in front of me, I am not a vegetarian, and I don't like those bells and whistles. β
In an instant, Su Su jumped into the air and struck at Rong Heng, and Rong Heng dodged it with a quick response.
It's a pity that Su Su is extremely treacherous, and he took the initiative to send a spell attack to his waist at this time, and Rong Heng was directly bounced out.
