Chapter 51: The Soul Cage
Qiao Zimei followed the man's shadow into the alley, which was damp and narrow, and few people passed by on weekdays.
She quickened her pace and followed closely, and was still two feet away from the man, when suddenly a figure passed in front of her, and with a wave of her palm, she collected the man in front of her into a pot of pitcher plants in her hand.
She was taken aback, the man turned around, and saw that she was also slightly taken aback, and she fixed her eyes to see that this person was Hua Mantian!
Hua Mantian's face was covered with a trace of exhaustion, she held the pot of pitcher plants in her right hand, walked over, and opened her mouth first, "Miss Qiao?" Are you okay? She looked at Qiao Zimei, in the battle for the throne in the palace that day, Liu Rusu ordered her to take out the fairy ginseng on Qiao Zimei's body, she had obviously left her body, and now standing in front of her was clearly a flesh-and-blood person!
Qiao Zimei shook her head and asked, "I seemed to see Brother Hao just now." She looked at Hua Mantian suspiciously, this demon is Empress Zun's subordinate, just now she clearly saw Brother Hao enter the alley, Hua Mantian raised his hand and he disappeared, and the pot of pitcher plants she was holding in her hand, there must be something wrong.
Hua Mantian glanced at the plant in his hand, his eyebrows were full of sorrow, his eyes were red, and he choked up a little: "What you saw just now is Brother Hao's spirit." β
Qiao Zimei didn't know why, and the more she listened, the more confused she became, "Spirit? What the hell are you talking about? β
"After the battle for the throne, Brother Hao was favored by Liu Feng. Liu Feng's madman went mad and disfigured when he practiced, he killed Brother Hao, scattered his three souls and seven spirits, and took possession of his skin. Hua Mantian lifted the pitcher plant between the two of them and explained, "This is the immortal grass 'soul knot immortal cage' that I stole from Liu Rusu's palace, there are a total of ten cages on it, each cage contains a soul or spirit, I finally found Brother Hao's two souls and four spirits, and the one I just caught is his fifth soul." β
Qiao Zimei was shocked, she remembered the 'Hao Tianlin' who accompanied Ling Zixuan to the mountain for treatment, at that time she already felt that he was a little strange, thinking that he was secretly obeying Yu Zunhou, never thought that he was pretending to be Liu Feng, what did he want to do if he stayed by Ling Zixuan's side? Walking with wolves, I can't help but shudder when I think about it now.
Seeing her strange expression, Hua Mantian asked, "What do you know?" β
Qiao Zimei told her about Liu Feng leaving her by Ling Zixuan's side, and she was very worried when she heard it, "King Yong still doesn't know that it was Liu Feng pretending, Liu Feng's mana is strong, he will be in danger." β
Qiao Zimei suddenly thought of something, "King Yong came to Mu Yongcheng, I saw him yesterday, he said that he was looking for Brother Hao, I will hurry up and tell him about it." β
Hua Mantian nodded, "You can go quickly." β
Qiao Zimei said: "Aren't you going with me?" Hua Mantian shook his head, "I still have to find Brother Hao's soul, if it's too late, it will be terrible." β
Qiao Zimei said: "You go with me to see King Yong, the three of us are looking for it together, there are many people and great strength, at least it is better than you to find it, besides, Brother Hao is also our friend, we will definitely try our best to help him, you don't have to carry this alone." Hua Mantian is now helpless, a woman is running around to find Hao Tianlin's soul, it is really miserable, she suddenly thought of Hua Yingrong who was rescued by Jin Yichen to Wuwu Mountain that day, the ghost doctor said that she said that she did not say goodbye that day because she sensed the breath of Hua Mantian, and wanted to find Hua Mantian, so she asked, "What about Hua Yingrong?" β
When Hua Mantian heard her sister's name, her eyes became redder, and she couldn't help crying, "It's me who did it arbitrarily, in order to save Brother Hao, I stole the soul cage of the queen, I don't know how my father and sister are doing now, I don't know if the queen is embarrassed by them, my sister is deeply favored by the queen, presumably the queen will not punish them for a mere fairy cage." β
Qiao Zimei secretly sighed at her innocence, but she couldn't bear to tell her that her father and mother had been poisoned by the Empress for her, which was undoubtedly worse, so it was better not to tell her for the time being, but where did Hua Yingrong go? Don't...... Have you been caught by the Empress?
They didn't talk much, and when they came to the Yunlai Inn, Xiao Er immediately came forward, and said with a smile: "Two girls, are you staying in a hotel or eating?" β
"Find someone." Qiao Zimei said, "Have you ever seen a man who is about this tall," she stood on tiptoe and stretched out her arms to gesticulate, "A very tall, thick-eyed, handsome-looking man lives in the hotel?" β
"Yes, I live inβ" The shopkeeper turned around and waved his hand upstairs, and suddenly saw the guest walking down, "Na, it's really about Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived, may I ask if the young lady is looking for those two sons?" β
Two sons? They looked suspiciously in the direction that Xiao Er was pointing at, and the person who was going downstairs turned out to be Hao Tianlin, and Ling Zixuan was walking behind him with a burden.
Qiao Zimei was taken aback and shouted, "Hurry up!" β
Everyone in the store was so shocked by her shout that they all looked here, Hao Tianlin noticed that she was holding a soul knot immortal cage beside her, seven points frightened and three points angry Hua Mantian, and stopped and stood in the middle of the stairs, with an evil smile on his lips.
Hua Mantian was frightened by his smile, hugged the soul knot fairy cage and turned around and ran.
Ling Zixuan was blocked by Hao Tianlin in front of him, he heard the shout and turned around to look down, and saw that it was Qiao Zimei, his face darkened, "What are you yelling about?" He really shouldn't have told her where he was staying, this guy who didn't know how to follow the etiquette was doing something embarrassing.
"Brother Ling, danger, come down, that person is not Brother Hao!" Qiao Zimei was so anxious that she stomped her feet, and suddenly felt that she couldn't speak, and looked next door, Hua Mantian left without knowing when, and disappeared.
"What a mess," Ling Zixuan had already strode up to her, grabbed her wrist and walked out the door, "Go outside." β
Qiao Zimei looked back at Hao Tianlin, who was slowly walking towards them, with a smile on his face, which was very mad. She grabbed Ling Zixuan's hand with her backhand, pulled it and ran out.
Ling Zixuan didn't want her to be like this suddenly, so he ran with her for a while before stopping her, "Qiao Zimei!" What the hell do you want to do! β
Qiao Zimei glanced back, and Hao Tianlin was also walking this way.
"It's too late, let's go to a safe place first." As she spoke, she wanted to hold Ling Zixuan's hand again.
Ling Zixuan got rid of her hand and asked with a serious face, "Qiao Zimei, what are you doing?" If you want to hold my hand, just say it, I'll let you hold it enough. β
Qiao Zimei's face turned red, this bastard was still poor at this time, she glanced at Hao Tianlin, who was getting closer and closer, and said hurriedly: "That is not the real Hao Tianlin, but Liu Feng, the younger brother of the empress!" β
Ling Zixuan was in a fog, frowned, and said, "What are you talking about?" β
Qiao Zimei couldn't explain clearly for a while, Hao Tianlin had already arrived in front of them, his smile was as warm as ever, it seemed to be kind, but in fact, it contained evil intentions. She opened her hands to protect Ling Zixuan behind her, glaring at Hao Tianlin, "Liu Feng, what do you want to do?" β
Hao Tianlin's eyes rolled, and he smiled and said, "Who is Liu Feng?" Miss Qiao, I'm Hao Tianlin, but I haven't seen you for half a year, so you don't recognize me? β
Qiao Zimei said angrily: "Of course I recognize Brother Hao, but you are not, Hua Mantian has already told me everything, don't pretend anymore!" β
Hao Tianlin laughed, "Flowers? She uses Xia Chun's skin to live with me, and she has been deceiving me, do you believe what she said? β
Ling Zixuan said impatiently: "Okay, okay, can you believe the words of that goblin?" Miss Qiao, if you don't have anything else to do, we'll go first. As he spoke, he strode away.
Qiao Zimei couldn't say clearly, Hao Tianlin smiled at her with a smile, "Miss Qiao, let's go first." β
Qiao Zimei glared at him angrily, "Where are you going?" β
Hao Tianlin said with a smile: "King Yong wants to live in Hao's house for a few days, I heard that he wants to sneak into the palace to rescue those relatives who are still detained in the cold palace. β
Qiao Zimei was startled and secretly entered the palace? Since this matter is known by the face wolf in front of him, there is no chance of success, and there may be no return!
Her sharp gaze stared straight at Hao Tianlin, "What do you want to do?" β
Ling Zixuan turned around and saw that they were still talking, so he shouted, "Hao Tianlin, what are you still talking nonsense about her?" β
Qiao Zimei looked at Ling Zixuan, this damn stupid, she's saving you, stupid!
"Don't worry, I will help him enter the palace to save people." Hao Tianlin smiled at her, turned around and left.
Damn flowers, damn stupid Ling Zixuan! What should I do now? The thought of that Liu Feng staying by Ling Zixuan's side made her feel creepy. She suddenly thought of Zhu Zhu, he has great powers, and there will definitely be a way.
She quickened her pace and walked back to Qiao's house, looking around along the road, but she still couldn't find the figure of Hua Mantian. She returned to the wing room, threw herself down in front of Zhu Zhu, and panted: "Zhu ...... Zhu Zhu, you have to help...... Help me! β
Zhu Zhu was so anxious when she saw that she just came back from going out, and said angrily: "First take a good breath and then talk well, I don't have the appearance of a woman." β
Qiao Zimei took a sip of tea, and almost choked to death when she heard her say that she 'didn't look like a woman', in his eyes, she was not a woman? Hey, what a sea pig's vision is really bad! However, she still had something important to ask him for, so she swallowed this breath first, and said, "Zhu Zhu, I'm looking for you to save your life!" β
Zhu Zhu understated: "Oh? "Yes.
She explained, "I have a friend who is entangled in a goblin and is very dangerous, you can help me figure it out." β
Zhu Zhu asked, "Entangled by a female goblin?" β
Qiao Zimei shook her head, "No, it's entangled by the male goblin." β
Zhu Zhu nodded, "Oh, it turned out to be a broken back, if you get entangled, you can do it." β
"It's not what you think." Qiao Zimei told Zhu Zhu the ins and outs of the matter, and at the end, he said, "Ling Zixuan plans to enter the palace to save people, with this goblin by his side, there must be no return!" β
Zhu Zhu said: "But you said that your friend trusts this goblin very much and doesn't let him get into trouble, and he doesn't know that he believes the wrong person." β
She was anxious, "This is a terrible thing!" β
Zhu Zhu said with a smile: "You care about him so much, do you like him?" β
