Chapter 117: Please enter the urn
Xiao Shi chased the figure, out of the East City, out of the city gate, all the way south, into a willow forest five miles outside the imperial capital. At this time, the new sprouts were emerging, and the forest was verdant, and the man was wearing a goose-yellow robe, which was very obvious among the shadows of the trees.
But he is very good at light skills, and he is always in front of Xiao Shi, deliberately tempting him. If Xiao Shi is slow, he will wait for him slowly, and if Xiao Shi is faster, he will speed up his pace, so that Xiao Shi can't even touch the edge of his clothes.
Although Xiao Shi secretly warned in his heart, he must not be anxious at this time, that is really a trap.
The two of them chased a stick of incense in the woods for an hour, and the man led him to a bamboo hut.
There is a stone table and stone bench outside the bamboo house, and on the round stone table is a plain dress that looks like the one Xiao He is wearing. Xiao Shi's heart was furious, and as soon as he put his hands down, two water splitting stabs fell from his sleeves and stabbed into his palms.
He leapt into the air and struck the man.
The short knife that the man made was more than a foot long, and it was inseparable from Xiao Shi in a few moments. But this person's martial arts foundation is not pure, there are obvious loopholes hidden in the moves, and within twenty moves, Xiao Shi has seen through it, and he is empty when he takes advantage of a gap. Xiao Eleven's fake move deceived him into making a false move, and a backhand stab went straight into his shoulder, and the man hurriedly took a knife to block it.
The force was so great that his short knife was knocked out of his hand, and the tiger's mouth was also shocked and bloody.
One side of the weapon has landed, and it is clear which is higher and which is lower. Seeing that Xiao Shi's water thorn was about to pierce into his flesh and blood, he smiled lightly, "It is worthy of the Ten Palaces Yama, who makes a move to kill and loses the wind in Xiagan." ”
Xiao Shi stabbed him in the throat with a split, "Say! Who are you? Where to take her? ”
The man took a pill from his sleeve and handed it to him, "Eat it, and I'll take you to her." ”
Xiao Shi took the pill, smelled the smell of Shixiang cartilage, frowned, this move is to unload his weapon, the only means of survival to protect himself.
"You can not believe me, but that girl, if you don't hurry up, my master has already ...... Hehe, you should also know how a man will be treated when he gets an interesting woman. The man spoke unhurriedly, as if he knew he would be obedient.
Xiao Shi stuffed the pill into his mouth, swallowed it, and put away his weapon, "Can you take me now?" ”
Although that person was ordered to lure the enemy, before he swallowed the pill, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, the Ten Palaces Yama was famous, and the Qinglong Hall was a killer. The so-called heavenly absoluteness is the meaning of extinguishing nature and surviving for the purpose of killing. Not to mention that he had already stained his hands with blood before he became a heavenly peer, and he had killed countless people.
Now he is actually for a woman, giving his life to others so rashly. is so stupid, isn't he stupid, if it weren't for his skills really can't be faked, that person is still a little disdainful, almost can't believe it.
I can only sigh that the master is clever and clever, and he has tried his best to support the people.
Xiao Shi was blindfolded and taken into the carriage. He is a little familiar with this set, but this person is definitely not from Qinglong Hall, but he should indeed have an inseparable relationship with Qinglong Hall.
At the hour of half a pillar of incense, they arrived at a small farm yard built against the mountain.
When Xiao Shi was brought in, he saw Xiao He sitting in the room with a neat body, but the veil was missing. knew that he was calculated, but he was relieved to see that she was intact.
And when the man had sent him in, he closed the door.
"Are you alright?"
"Why did you get caught too?"
As soon as the two met, they asked each other in unison.
When Xiao He heard him ask himself, he suddenly realized that someone must have used her as bait to lure him into the bait. She sighed, she was really careless this time. When Xiao Shi was about to comfort her, she saw a girl dressed as a maid coming over, and Ying Ying was blessed, "Two, my master is invited." ”
Take things as they come. So they followed her, and went round into the inner room, and saw what mechanism she had set in, and the stone wall moved, revealing a secret door. After passing through a section of tunnel, there is a cave inside.
They arrived at a chic garden, with lotus ponds, rockeries, a flower and a scene seem to be random, but they have their own pattern, even the courtyard is not as elegant as the ink bamboo, showing the owner's noble taste.
At the end of the garden is a bamboo house, a pair of sparring at the door, the pen is strong and resolute, it seems to be upright, but it hides the universe, just look at the content of this practice, it makes Xiao He laugh at his arrogance to the extreme, the upper link is "I am for the common people", the lower link is "heaven and earth bend the knee", no horizontal criticism.
The maidservant stopped at the door with them, and then reported to Litong: "Master, the guest has been invited." ”
A male voice came from inside, "Please let them in." ”
The handmaid smiled and stretched out her hand to invite them in.
The master was dressed in soap, and stood in the middle of the hall with his hands on his back, and a silver mask was attached to his face, covering most of his face. When Xiao He saw it, he sneered and smiled, and said coldly: "This is Your Excellency's hospitality, no wonder you don't dare to show your true face, and no wonder there are such arrogant couplets hanging at the door, laughing at people!" ”
"Everyone has their own secrets, but how do you know that you are not sincere enough?" The man smiled indifferently at Xiao He, "Isn't Lord Xiao not showing his true face on weekdays?" ”
When Xiao He heard this, he was slightly surprised in his heart, it can be said that the enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. He knew who I was, and I didn't know anything about him.
She pretended to be calm, "If you are sincere to others, at least the exchange of names is the most basic." Inviting people to the door will not use some indiscriminate means. ”
"I made this decision only because neither of them was an ordinary mediocre person, and if I had made friends rashly, I would never have been able to listen to me calmly as I am today. Have a seat. The man waved his sleeves and asked them to take their seats and speak.
Xiao He glanced at Xiao Shi, now that both of them have been drugged, they won't be able to leave for a while, so it's better to sit down and listen to what he has to say.
"I don't go around in circles in the next place, it's good to get straight to the point. I would like to ask the two of you to help me get up and pull Mu Churan off the throne. As soon as he said this, Xiao He was slightly stunned. This open-door mountain is also a little too big, which makes her a little difficult to digest for a while.
"Lord Xiao, you should know Mu Churan the most, in order to achieve the means, he did not hesitate to sacrifice the innocent, and the lives of more than 40 members of the regent's family were killed by him in one night. Such brutal methods are to ask him how can He De still occupy the position of the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, and do he have to wait for him to poison the people one day? That man said justice and awe-inspiring, but he couldn't make Xiao He believe it.
"Your Excellency knows so many things, but the people of the court?" Xiao He doesn't have much affection for a person who conceals his identity.
"It's not a secret, it's the old prince of the first prince, and the surname is Murong. At that time, the emperor had an edict, and after the death of the first prince, the prince succeeded to the throne of the prince, but the edict was stolen and has not been whereabouts. His lifelong wish is to help the prince regain the throne and avenge the former crown prince and princess. He said it clearly.
Xiao He vaguely recalled that Mu Yunjing had told him that the emperor did seem to have an edict, and this person also mentioned the edict, even if he was not the Murong he said, he must be the one who knew the inside story of the year.
"Now we are people in the same boat." Murong smiled lightly, but it made Xiao He a little suspicious.
"How long have you been spying on me?" Xiao He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at him.
"If you say that you have been an official since the day you entered the court, can you believe it?" After Murong spoke, Xiao He was a little shocked, and before she could come to her senses, she continued to say the facts that surprised her even more, "Now that Mu Churan already knows your identity, I'm afraid that you won't be an official for a long time." ”
Xiao He was a little skeptical about what he said to him, "If he really knows, why didn't he kill me and keep me until now?" ”
"This is also my curiosity, so I invite you to cooperate and fight our common enemy, a win-win situation." Murong said easily, as if Mu Churan had already washed his neck, just waiting for them to fall with a knife.
"If you already have so much information, and you have so many capable people under your command, you can make your own trouble, what's the use of looking for me? It's just a trivial nobody, and it won't help you much. Xiao He spread out his hand and said half-truthfully.
"Now that the incident is up, I still owe some time, I need you to persuade the prince for me, let him set up ambitions, and compete with Mu Churan. The second copy of the treasure map of the dragon vein of the former dynasty is also in your hands now, but there is no key to open the box. I have already found out the whereabouts of the key, it is in Mu Churan's hand, and I need you to find an opportunity to check it closely. If he succeeds in the future, the feudal kingdom and the king will be with you. Murong only opened his mouth and told all the secrets, as if what he said was not a major murder to usurp the throne, but such idle things as a few pennies and a pound of cabbage in the market today.
Xiao He was a little stunned for a long time, she glanced at Xiao Shiyi, Xiao Shi didn't expect that there was such a connection in the middle, her brows were also tightly locked, and she looked dazed.
But at the beginning, the copper box was stolen by the two of them from the Queen Mother's cold and light Chaolu Palace, if the key was in Mu Churan's hand, then why didn't they open the copper box and take out the treasure map earlier.
How true and false what Murong said, Xiao He really didn't know how to tell the difference.
"With incense, take the guests down to eat." Murong crossed them and called the maidservant, turned to the two of them again, and said in a sloppy manner, "You are also tired, it is better to eat something and think slowly." ”
The maidservant who had brought them in just now heard the sound and said to the two of them, "Two guests, please come with me." ”
Now that Xiao He is already a fish on the case, there is no other way, so he just takes one step at a time. The environment here is not bad, she simply thinks that she is here to play, it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, since this person still needs to help herself, she will not kill herself so soon.
After she stepped out with her front foot, Xiao Ten followed. I don't know when it began, his heart was drawn by this woman, she was his direction, and her smile became the whole meaning of his existence.
