Chapter 672: Confusing Behavior
It was late at night, and there were only one or two dead wind lamps left in the huge courtyard, and the light was dim, and it was impossible to see anything clearly if it was far away.
It was pitch black in the room, and the two maidservants were on guard outside for the night.
Lin Ruan lay on the bed and summoned a few rats with her abilities, and the rats quietly burrowed out of the newly opened hole, bringing her a few crumpled pieces of paper and a few pieces of charcoal of varying lengths.
He got up and unfolded the paper, wrapped it in charcoal in a piece of silk cloth, and began to write quickly on the paper.
There was no light in the room at all, and she couldn't see her fingers, but Lin Ruan's writing speed was not slow at all, and she had a special ability, she didn't need to use her own eyes to see at all, but more eyes to look at everything she wanted to see for her.
After writing down the content to be written, Lin Ruan folded the paper, stuffed it into a small cloth bag, and handed it to the big rats, letting them carry the paper out of the hole to the outside of the house.
In the cave outside the house, there was already a nightjar waiting there.
When the mouse came out of the hole with the sack, he ran straight to the feet of the nighthawk and tied the bag to the nighthawk's talons with two short front paws.
If anyone sees this, they are guaranteed to drop their jaws.
When the bag was tied, the mouse immediately turned around and ran, and Nighthawk flapped its wings and flew into the sky with a kick of its feet, and soon disappeared.
Yongqing House.
Liang Twelve Xingse hurriedly ran into Xiao Jingchen's temporary study, "Master, Jiayi and they came, saying that they didn't find the whereabouts of Ye Wei and the others on the road. ”
Xiao Jingchen frowned, and asked someone to bring Jia Yi and them in.
As soon as several people entered the study, they knelt on the ground in unison: "My subordinates are derelict in their duties and fail to protect the county lord, please ask the prince to surrender." ”
They chased after them all the way, but they didn't find the Dire and the others from beginning to end. They didn't dare to hide it, and on the day Lin Ruan was taken captive, they flew pigeons and passed the book to Xiao Jingchen. So Xiao Jingchen has been looking around for the traces of Nightmare and others these days.
Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Xiao Jingchen's body was full of violence, but he desperately suppressed it, "Remember the sin first, and after you get your master back, this king will slowly punish you!" ”
Several people bowed their heads and said yes.
Xiao Jingchen asked a few people to rest first, turned around and sent people out to find Lin Ruan's whereabouts, and after arranging these manpower, he went to the city tower of Yongqing City alone, standing on the city tower and looking into the distance.
It has been seven days since Lin Ruan was taken captive, and there is still no news at all. Although he knew that it was not a problem to protect himself with Lin Ruan's ability, he still couldn't help but worry, afraid that King Chu would be unfavorable to her.
He knew the King of Chu very well, and his abduction of Lin Ruan was definitely not just a threat to himself.
If the King of Chu really used some dirty means against Lin Ruan......
When he thought of this possibility, he couldn't wait to screw off the head of the anti-Chu king.
However, after the fall of the Gu family, the old fox and the cunning rabbit of the King of Chu, he received the news that he arranged the eyeliner in Yongqing Mansion, but he did not find out at all when the King of Chu slipped out of the mansion with his family and disappeared.
The king of Chu has a large number of troops in Yongqing Mansion, and in the past few days, they have all been collected under his command and firmly controlled Yongqing Mansion. But the core forces of King Chu secretly have no clues.
And now the king of Chu has taken Lin Ruan away again, which makes him even more anxious. This gave him the first time he felt the heat of burning.
Xiao Jingchen thought of the fruitless search for Lin Ruan in the past few days, and his heart was bored for a while, and the hand on the city wall unconsciously used his strength.
With a "click", the brick he grabbed suddenly became smashed.
The soldiers standing guard next to him were so frightened that their faces changed.
Xiao Jingchen turned around and was about to go down to the city tower to send additional people to investigate, when he suddenly heard an eagle's cry in the sky.
My heart moved, and I looked up at the sky. At this time, it was already late at night, and Xiao Jingchen couldn't see the scene in the sky, but soon, the sound of the nighthawk flapping its wings became obvious.
Xiao Jingchen hurriedly walked to the top and raised his hand high. The soldiers defending the city had no idea what he was doing, and they all obsquinted vaguely at everyone to observe.
The nighthawk flapped its wings and circled in the air a few times before landing on Xiao Jingchen's arm.
Xiao Jingchen saw the cloth bag tied to the eagle's claws at a glance, and he was overjoyed, so he reached out and took it down, opened it and pulled out the note inside, and suddenly there was a look of ecstasy on his face.
Ah Nguyen! It's her!
After quickly browsing the information on the note, Xiao Jingchen looked dazed, held the nighthawk in his arms, and quickly went down the city tower with the note in his hand.
The soldiers defending the city looked at each other, what the hell was this prince doing? I didn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran to the castle tower to catch the nighthawk? What a crazy smoker!
As soon as Xiao Jingchen came down from the city tower, he saw Liang Twelve rushing towards him like a gust of wind.
"Master, good news, there is a clue. Just now, our people found out that in the northwest direction of Yongqing Mansion City during the day, they found traces of the Nightmare and his party. Those bastards must be hiding in those mountains in the northwest, so let's send someone over to find out. ”
"Senju Mountain."
Liang Twelve was a little confused by this headless sentence, "Huh? ”
Xiao Jingchen picked the corners of his mouth, "The King of Chu is hiding in the Qianzhong Mountain, where is the general rudder of the Dark Pavilion, and the tens of thousands of elite troops of the King of Chu are also hidden in the mountains near the Qianzhong Mountain. ”
Liang Twelve was confused, could it be that his grandfather still had clairvoyance and ears?
Xiao Jingchen didn't explain anything to him, he hugged the eagle and walked into the study, he wanted to reply to Lin Ruan first, let her know that she had received her letter. Then immediately increase the number of troops and prepare to attack the Thousand Mountains.
Liang Twelve only then realized that he was holding a nighthawk in his hand. His grandfather ran upstairs in the city in the middle of the night to hunt eagles, did he want to make supper?
Before he could figure it out, Xiao Jingchen threw down an order: "Go catch two rats, they want to live." ”
Liang 12:???
Xiao Jingchen returned to the study and wrote the reply, put it back into the cloth bag, and then tied the cloth bag back to Nighthawk's leg.
Liang Twelve came in with a cage and put the cage on the ground with a disgusted expression: "Master, you are an eagle and a mouse at night, what are you going to do?" ”
Is it difficult to stew some kind of eagle and rat soup? Isn't the taste a little too heavy?
Xiao Jingchen ignored him, walked to the cage, and used a long tongs to clip out the mouse in the cage and send it to Nighthawk's mouth.
Nighthawk ate the two rats with a very appreciative face, and then flapped his wings.
Xiao Jingchen walked to the courtyard with the nighthawk in his arms, threw it into the air, and the nighthawk flapped its wings and flew away.
The more Liang Twelve looked, the more confused he became, what was his grandfather doing?
The king of Chu doesn't catch it, Lin Ruan doesn't look for it, and he feeds the eagle here in the middle of the night? Is this idle?
