After a while, the people who were sent to the east gate to check along the road reported the news back, and the carrier pigeon that was shot was found on the road, but fortunately, the two places were not far apart, and General Han had already received the news, and immediately ordered the men and horses to march to the north gate and meet Jia Tong.

The carrier pigeon that flew to Jinling was not shot, and it fell into Ning Jiu's hands smoothly, when he took out a small note from the copper ring on the pigeon's feet and unfolded it, the face of the Ning guard, who had always been expressionless, changed greatly.

And at this moment, the prince of Chu was hanging his hands, looking at the fish pond he had carefully built for Bai Qianfan, Yu Guang saw Ning Jiu leading the horse over in a hurry, and was about to ask, Ning Jiu handed over the note without saying a word, and glanced at the words on it, Mo Rongmian's pupils shrank sharply, and without saying a word, he jumped on the horse and galloped towards the door.

His mind was blank, he couldn't think of anything, but he kept whipping his horses, and the pedestrians in the street were so startled by him that they avoided him, and before they could see clearly, they galloped away and disappeared at the gate of the city.

Ning Jiu struggled to chase after him, but he watched him go farther and farther, until he turned into a small black dot and disappeared from his sight, all the way non-stop, he finally saw the gate of Su City from a distance, and also saw the mount of the fallen King of Chu, the guard at the door shouted at him at the top of his voice: "Lord Ning, the prince is going to the north gate, you go quickly." ”

Ning Jiu looked at the horse and was taken aback, the prince's mount had followed the prince for five or six years, it was a rare BMW, and it was actually run to death like this.

His horse could not continue to be strong, so he quickly changed his horse and passed through the city, and chased all the way out of the north gate.

Jia Tong's estimate was right, he led people to chase north, and found traces along the way, along the way, he chased into the mountains, the peaks are continuous, and it is a good place for Tibetans and people to hide. However, to be able to stay by the side of King Chu as a guard, Jia Tong still has two brushes, he recognizes the truth, and his keen observation and meticulous analysis are no worse than Ning Jiu.

After a while, Han Tong arrived with people, there were many people to do things, and the dense mountains and forests were opened by them inch by inch to find them, down to the mountain stream, and then up to the peak, the peak turned around, obviously the person was going around in circles with them.

Jia Tong was very anxious, always feeling that the person was not far away, chasing his footprints, but he couldn't see his shadow.

Suddenly there was a boom, and there was a thunderclap in the sky, and the black clouds were torn apart by lightning, and the wind came and blew the branches and leaves, and the sky was so dark that it seemed to be collapsing, and the wind and clouds were moving, and the sand and rocks were flying, and it was impossible to tell whether it was day or night.

Han Tong looked up at the sky and said to Jia Tong, "If it rains, it's a bad thing." ”

Of course, Jia Tong knows that the rain will wash away all the traces, and that person will really pick the day, as soon as the clues here are broken, they will really call the sky and the earth not spiritual.

"There's no way, tell them to move faster." Jia Tong took a thin strand from a branch, which was brought down by the clothes hanging on the branch, he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, raised his chin, "Chase there." ”

Han Tong waved his arms and shouted, "Go ahead left!" ”

The tide of the crowd generally moved in the designated direction, and the sound of the rope was filled in the ears, this was the hillside upward, the mountain road was crooked, some steep, Jia Tong saw the obvious footprints on the ground, the seal was very new, it should have just passed, he was shocked, and shouted: "Quick, chase me up!" ”

The soldiers, hearing hope in his tone, rushed up the hillside, and soon someone shouted, "There! ”

Jia Tong jumped on the tree, stepped on the branches and flew towards the mountain, not long after, he vaguely saw a figure shaking, it seemed that he was still carrying something on his shoulder, and a small cry came from the wind, like a baby's cry.

He was overjoyed in his heart, chased for a whole day, and finally caught up, however, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw that the figure was short and disappeared from his sight out of thin air.

Jia Tong's toes pressed a little the tree, and his body flew out obliquely, the tiny branches scratched his face, his arms, he ignored it completely, rushed out of the woods, and landed where the figure disappeared.

Han Tong led people to catch up, and saw Jia Tong standing there from a distance, his face was covered with blood, looking hideous and terrifying, but the person looked lost and depressed, looking at his feet blankly, he had a very bad premonition in his heart, and he stepped forward with an arrow, "What about people?" ”

Jia Tong was sluggish and didn't speak, Han Tong noticed that this was a cliff, he was shocked, took two steps forward, looked at it, between the two mountains, the drop was too big, the black paste couldn't see clearly, and he threw the stone down, and he couldn't hear the echo in the middle of the sound. After sweeping the afterglow, I saw something in the grass, and when I picked it up, it was a children's playing drum.

He handed it to Jia Tong: "Take a closer look, is it Xiao Shizi?" ”

Jia Tong raised his eyes and grabbed them in his hand, "Yes, it's Xiao Shizi, I accompanied the prince to buy it on the street in person," he closed his eyes vigorously, tears slid through the corners of his eyes, falling from such a high place, there was no chance of survival, but he couldn't give up, and wiped his eyes quickly with his side face: "General, arrange for someone to go to the bottom of the cliff to investigate, to see people alive, and to see corpses when they die." ”

"That's what I mean, too." Han Tong said, called a few lieutenants to come up and make arrangements, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid the prince has received the news at this time and is rushing back, let's ......"

Before he could speak, he saw the black-pressed soldiers branching out from the middle, and a tall figure walked quickly, with a voice of uncertainty: "Have you found the princess?" ”

Jia Tong knelt on the ground with a bang, and raised the wave drum in his hand high above his head, "The subordinates deserve death, the princess and the little prince fell, fell ......" The words behind him could no longer be said, and there was a slight cry.

The blood on Murong Mian's face instantly faded clean, and he grabbed the wave drum, stared at it as if he didn't recognize it, and turned into a stone statue.

"Lord Wang," Han Tong tried to comfort him, "The last general has already sent someone to search under the cliff, the princess is auspicious, maybe it will be fine." ”

Yes, maybe it will be fine, when I was a child, I was sunk in the well and came back to life, what is this, it will be fine, it will be fine, but my heart hurts, it is like a big hole, the cold and miserable wind pours in from this end, and comes out from that end, and it soaks into the bones little by little, and sorrow and despair overflow over his head like water, and he feels fear, and even his breath is sleepy, and he is about to suffocate. Even if she hadn't died, how scared she would have been to fall from such a high place, and their children...... Just thinking about it, his heart was like a knife, and he bent down in pain, and until now, he didn't force anything, as long as they were alive, alive......
