Song Yong was about to collapse, and the reason why the last wave of people was able to trick him into entering the city was because he knew that the Queen Mother would enter the southern boundary from here in the near future, and she had been guarding it.

But he had seen the Queen Mother, and the first moment he saw the girl, he recognized her as a fake, and although he let them run away, the other party didn't get any benefits, after all, there were many of them.

Unexpectedly, he met another wave of people yesterday, he naturally thought it was fake, who thought, what the hell, that's true, I didn't see that the queen mother couldn't enter the city, so she went directly to the barracks and moved this shameless person out.

He's dead, this time without a trace.

When Song Yong saw Qiu Jue, he knelt down directly, and was just about to open his mouth when Xu Chong intercepted him, "Are you scared like this?" I'm not going to sue the general, so hurry up. ”

Only then did Song Yong react that the Queen Mother's whereabouts should not be revealed.

"you, I'm just running too fast, and my legs are a little weak."

Is this an explanation?

The soldiers who came with him were a little dumbfounded, and their legs were weak? This is running down from the castle tower, you have killed the enemy in battle, just this physique?

Ignoring the opinions of others, Song Yong invited the group to their temporary residence.

"The young general Song Yong visited the Queen Mother, the mother is a thousand years old."

"This is outside the palace and there is no need to have so many courtesies, get up." Qiu Jue drank a few large mouthfuls of water, and then greeted, "Can you prepare some food for us first?" ”

Song Yong was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked people to arrange it.

When Qiu Jue and them were eating, he had been waiting outside anxiously.

After settling the others, when Song Yong went in again, there were only Qiu Jue, Skylark and a strange man left.

It is the second son.

But Song Yong didn't know him, Qiu Jue asked him directly, "I heard that General Feng is missing, do you have any clues?" ”

After all, there was a one-sided relationship, and Qiu Jue is not good to ignore it.

Song Yong didn't hide it, and took out the map directly, Qiu Jue was a little puzzled, and finally he pointed to a place, but the lark exclaimed.

"This is the Tianxiang River."

"Not bad." Song Yong and Skylark's expressions both became very serious.

Qiu Jue was puzzled, "What is the Tianxiang River?" ”

"That is the junction of the Celestial Empire and Tanglin, the river is turbulent, it is not easy to come and go, and the boat can't pass at all on weekdays."

It was the second son who spoke, telling her that the water there was very fast, and it was only possible to cross it on certain days of the month, and it was almost impossible to pass on weekdays.

"What is General Feng going to do there?"

Song Yong replied: "The general has a map in his hand, which is ready to build a bridge, and Mr. Duanmu, who painted this picture, lives on the edge of the Tianxiang River. ”

This is also the meaning of the imperial court.

He didn't say that.

"What happened to the results of the people you brought to find them?"

This General Feng Lu is not a simple character, not to mention that he still has dozens of people, how could he disappear for no reason, it must be related to that Mr. Duanmu.

"Mr. Duanmu's residence has been attacked, but no one has been found."

The lark thought for a moment and said, "Do you think they will go to the Tanglin realm?" ”

The reason why there has been no war on the southern boundary of the Celestial Empire for many years is because Lingnan has no intention of being an enemy with it, and although Tanglin is strong, it is not easy to send troops to provoke a war.

It can be said that this bridge is not only hoped to be built by the Celestial Empire, but also by Tanglin.

As for whether there will be war or peace in the future, that is a matter of the future.

"Can't you swim even if the water is good?"

What kind of river is that?

"It's located in the south, it doesn't freeze all year round, the water is so strong that no one can swim through it, and of course, the biggest danger is in the water."

Qiu Jue thought for a while and said, "You pick ten water-based ones, let's go and see them early tomorrow morning." ”

After they left, the lark was a little puzzled, "Niangniang, the most important thing for us now is to rush back, the emperor is still waiting for you in the palace!" ”

As the emperor said, part of Qiu Jue's trip to Lingnan was to find the poison saint to see if there was a way to cure the poison on his body, and on the other hand, to find out the actual situation in Lingnan, so that he could accept it in the future.

Qiu Jue shook his head, "Don't worry, it won't be of much use for us to go back at the moment." ”

"And what are you?" The lark is puzzled, even if it is useless to go back, then it will not be your turn to find someone!

Besides, there's no friendship either.

"Uradour." Qiu Jue lightly spit out a name, and without waiting for the lark to ask again, she spoke on her own, "Don't let her go to the imperial city too early, this woman is too dangerous." ”

The lark was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

After she went out, the second son knocked on the door and entered, "You are still the same as before, thinking about him in everything." ”

Qiu Jue turned around and invited the second son to take a seat, but did not respond to his words.

"Now that he has returned to the Heavenly Empire, the second prince must be busy with a lot of things, so he doesn't have to be dragged down by this little thing."

"You're trying to drive me away?"

Qiu Jue nodded, "Never be complicit, why bother not to go the same way?" ”

"How do you know it's not conspiring?" The second prince chuckled, "Although I am my father's favorite son, but now that the emperor's brother has ascended the throne, he is the king, what do you think I will do?" ”

Qiu Jue didn't speak, and said in his heart, I'm afraid only you know what you want to do.

"Perhaps, my presence is a threat to him, but I have never had the heart to take the throne."

After the second son said this, he left.

Early the next morning, the group rushed to the vicinity of the Tianxiang River, where there were several bamboo huts, built in the middle of the water, and small boats could only be logged in.

However, they were already in a mess by then, and the second son and the Ula brothers and sisters went to inspect and leave the affairs there to them.

And Qiu Jue took the lark to the Tianxiang River, as they said, the water flow was too fast, and there were many strange stones, some of which were directly highlighted.

"What's in there?"

Qiu Jue asked the lark, and the lark calmly spoke, "Water frog, water frog that eats people." ”

It is an animal that lives in the water, and when it is full on weekdays, it is like a black shadow, sticking to the bottom of the river or floating on the water, looking as thin as a piece of paper, and has no attack power at all.

Once it wants to hunt, it will instantly inflate and become a behemoth, eating any animal that passes by it, and the small fish and shrimp will not be able to run away at all.

"It's so big, can it eat?"

Qiu Jue was very curious, after all, she had never even heard of it, and there was no such animal in the twenty-first century.

The lark shook his head, "The speed of the water frog is extremely fast, when it grows larger, it will secrete a colloid on the surface of its body, as long as it is touched by its body, it can't escape at all, it will drag its heavy body when it sees that the food is enough, dive to the bottom of the water, and start eating." ”

What the is this? The whole body has its own viscose, so you just need to wait for the food to come and eat it.

Thinking like this, Qiu Jue stayed away from the river, for fear that he would be stuck if he was not careful.

"By the way, Niangniang, what are you doing here?"

Didn't they come to find the missing General Feng?

Qiu Jue raised his hand to block the dazzling sunlight, looked into the distance, and turned his head for a while before asking, "Where can I see the whole picture of this river?" ”

The lark nodded, "The slave will take you." ”

The two climbed a mountain, and when they came to the top of the mountain, Qiu Jue was already out of breath.

"Niangniang, what do you have to do and tell the slave maid, why do you have to come up in person." The lark felt sorry for her.

The master of the family has to wait for people to even dress and wash all day long, but the master of her family, although he did not go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, it is almost the same.

Since she left the palace, she hasn't stopped for a day, and she doesn't know how many times she has experienced the line of life and death, but she is still the same unhurried.

The lark really feels sorry for her, it's not worth it for her, but he doesn't know how to be worth it.

Qiu Jue helped her, and finally breathed evenly, how could she pay attention to her question, immediately came to the edge of the mountain, looked down, and immediately retreated.

"Be careful, sissy." The lark was scared to death by her, and everyone couldn't stand on their feet, so they moved forward.

"Scared the hell out of me." Fortunately, Qiu Jue also knew that he was afraid, patted his chest, and then looked forward.

"Niangniang, what the hell are you looking at?" The lark felt that she was just a chatter now, like an old mother all day long, constantly talking about her master.

After a while, Qiu Jue replied to her, "I heard that this is the only junction between the Celestial Empire and Tanglin, but what about other places?" Is it all water? ”

The lark nodded, Qiu Jue knew in her heart, this was similar to the geography she knew, fortunately it was still composed like the earth, and if something weird came out, she would go crazy.

"No wonder Feng Lu attaches great importance to that architectural drawing, if you want to trade and exchange, you really need a bridge here."

Qiu Jue looked at it for a while, and then asked the lark to take her down with light skills.

The convergence of people on both sides really made the other people anxious for a while, and when they saw that they had returned safely, they didn't ask more.

However, Qiu Jue saw that the expressions on their faces were relatively relaxed, so he asked, "What did you find?" ”

The end result was unexpected.

Although the situation here seems to be bad, the final conclusion is that General Feng left on their own, and this scene was deliberately made.

"There should be another group of people who are also looking for this Mr. Duanmu, and General Feng deliberately created this illusion in order to protect him."

When Song Yong and Xu Chong heard the news, they didn't believe it, but after many explanations and corroboration by the Ula brothers and sisters, they were finally confirmed.

"I'll just say, the general is so powerful, how can he quietly clean it up!" Xu Chong put his mind at ease, and he was a lot more casual.

They didn't disturb anything here, they made it a little more chaotic, and then they left.

"It's the end of the year soon, and we won't be able to catch up with the imperial city of the Celestial Empire even if we ride horses."

Ula Yingyue is very yearning for the imperial city, and of course she is very curious about the outside world.

After all, I have lived in the Lingnan territory since I was a child, and I either live in a tree house or a bamboo house, or a stone house, so I am curious about everything.

"That's right, Queen Mother, let's hurry up!"

Ularixing pushed the arm of the second son, and said: "Anyway, you are also the emperor's second brother, when you get to the imperial city, can you get a carriage, the super luxurious kind, to fill the façade for our brothers and sisters!" ”
