Chapter Ninety-Seven: Some Traditions Must Be Observed
Shi Qing panicked.
No matter how much he screamed on his lips, the old woman and the old woman screamed, he still relied on Xiya very much in his heart.
At this time, he found that his biggest backer may have fallen.
I can't calm down anymore.
Countless chaotic thoughts appeared in his mind, stirring his heart upset, and people subconsciously walked back and forth, like beasts falling into the pit, irritable and restless.
Calm down, I want to be calm, Master won't die so easily, how could a Taoist master of her level die without making any noise.
The lack of movement is likely to be trapped by human design.
As soon as the possibility of death was ruled out, Shi Qing calmed down a lot and thought along the train of thought.
If you're trapped, where do you start?
On the way, the odds are extremely low.
There is a high probability that the street was ambushed before.
Perhaps the main target of the enemy's ambush was not him, but Xiya, who was following him.
The man and woman were abandoned sons thrown by the enemy, so they didn't know that Xiya existed, so they dared to come forward to confirm his life and death.
No, it could also be that he wanted to do something insulting to his corpse to make Xiya angry and lose her mind.
If this is the case, there must be other people in ambush around.
Shi Qing thought about it again, Master is a cunning person and will not be easily fooled.
In order to induce the master to be deceived, the enemy is afraid that he will arrange for a few outcasts to be sent to death, so as to lower the master's vigilance.
To confirm this suspicion, he must go back to the street where the attack was carried out and ask the nearby streets if anyone had died in a bizarre way.
He figured this out, and stopped in his footsteps, letting the viscous blood seep into his shoes, "Your Royal Highness, there is something I want to ask you for help with. ”
He doesn't understand the language, and he can talk to the upper echelons of Gulatun, but not the lower echelons, and those people don't understand the language of the big merchants.
Aiyi listened to his conjecture, raised her hand on his shoulder, and said solemnly, "Leave it to me." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she continued, "Before that, please let me read a eulogy to these dead people, so that their souls can return to the bosom of the earth. ”
Shi Qing refused in his heart.
But he didn't want to criticize the other party's customs, so he could only nod his head and agree.
Aiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
She understands that this is a bit excessive, and she understands that time is pressing.
However, the customs of the Guradon must be observed.
A eulogy must be recited within six hours of a person's death in order for the soul of the deceased to return to the bosom of Mother Earth and receive eternal rest.
On the contrary, the soul of the deceased will forever hover between heaven and earth, like rootless duckweed, suffering eternally.
She couldn't tell if it was true or not, but what if it was true?
Some things are better to do than not to do them.
Aiyi crossed her fingers, raised it to her chest, and recited the eulogy with a reverent face.
Because it was Guradun's language, Shi Qing couldn't understand a word, and the only thing he could hear was that the eulogy seemed to be similar to a song.
It's still a song that is sad in the first half and hopeful in the second half.
"#" When the last word fell, crystal tears slowly flowed from the corners of Aiyi's eyes, she opened her arms, and the wind swept across the ground, rolling up all the flesh and blood, and restoring the ground to its original color.
Then there was a great tremor, and a crack suddenly emerged from it, and the ground seemed to open its mouth, and the wind swept the flesh into the crack.
Boom, the ground closed, and raised more than twenty meters, forming a hill-like tomb.
Then the tombstone was raised, and no name was written, and she planned to wait for the matter to pass.
"Alright, let's go." Aiyi put down his hand, and his expression was no longer sad, only perseverance.
On the way back to Shenghan, the two discussed while running, exchanged information by the way, and finally came to the conclusion of dividing the troops out of time.
Ai Yi gathers intelligence.
Shi Qing went to the barracks and called out three of her cronies to help.
Of course, he must hold Aiyi's personal token.
Before dividing their troops, the two returned to the street where they had been attacked, and everything was almost recovered.
At the entrance of the custom shop, young ladies gathered in flowers, smiling and talking to each other, and sometimes some young ladies threw flattering glances at the single passing men, and vaguely extended invitations.
The owner of the fruit shop sat listlessly behind the door, waiting for the guests to come to the door.
The streets are crowded with pedestrians, and the scene is harmonious, and there is no chaos at all.
When Shi Qing saw this scene, he was in a trance, he finally understood why there were always Taoist masters and nobles who thought they were different from ordinary people.
At this moment, he looked at these pedestrians, and there was also a kind of estrangement, I and they are not from the same world.
Immediately, he shook his head to dispel that thought, and said, "I was attacked here, and the rest is up to you." ”
"Hmm," Aiyi nodded, pulling out a delicately crafted gold token and handing it over.
Although she is in prison, nothing on her body has been searched, after all, she is a royal family, and being in prison is treated differently from others.
Shi Qing took the token and jumped onto the roof, ignoring the stunned eyes of the passers-by, he used the roof of someone else's house as a main road and ran away.
According to Aiyi's description, her three cronies and generals should all be in the barracks ten miles north of the palace.
The people behind the scenes should not mess with them.
Those three generals are the pillars of the country, and once they fall, they are bound to attract the attention of neighboring countries.
In this case, it would not be conducive to Faerun's plan to quietly annex small countries.
Shi Qing didn't want to make much of a comment on Aiyi's threat theory of Faerun, and he couldn't confirm the life and death of the three generals.
According to common sense, if Dahl really wanted to be a king, he would definitely not kill three generals.
You must know that Guraton is a small country, and the total number of Taoist masters is six, except for the three royal families, the remaining Taoist masters are those three generals.
If killed, Guraton's power on the surface will be almost wiped out.
However, Dahl's brain circuitry may not be normal.
Shi Qing thinks that the second prince cannot be guessed with ordinary people's thoughts.
That brain is probably a little wrong, there is such a beautiful sister who is the younger brother control, as the accused younger brother, how can he still have the crazy idea of killing his sister?
In addition, if it is related to the free teaching, it is impossible for the brain to be normal.
Based on the above thoughts, he could not be sure that the three generals were still alive, so he could only go to the barracks with the attitude of trying.
Ten miles beyond the palace, he saw the military camp built on the hillside, enclosed by a wall three meters high, with the gate closed and the noisy voices coming from inside.
He could be heard from twenty meters away, not an argument, but more like the cry of some movement.
He rushed forward, jumped directly over the gate, and landed in the barracks.
In front of him was a playground, and the soldiers were in a circle, red-faced and shouting, and he had just glanced into the circle when he was in the air, and the soldiers were playing football.
By the standards of an athlete, this sportsmanship deserves praise.
By the standards of a soldier, it is too dereliction of duty.
An outsider barged in and stood there for a while, but not a single soldier noticed him!
The defense was too lax.
From this laxity, Shi Qing can also confirm that the three generals have not had an accident yet, otherwise they would not be in the mood to play football.
