Chapter 767: What's the Connection?
Yin Zhige shook his head, "This person is careful and cautious, and he seems to know us very well.
There are no useful clues, and the guards are trying their best to track them down. ”
The last thing has not been solved, and now there is one more thing, which is really overwhelming.
Zhong Xiaoshu didn't ask anymore, the two of them sat outside and waited for a while, and suddenly a little eunuch ran out of the inner room.
There was also a note in his hand.
"This is found in the Ambassador's arms, please look at it, Your Majesty."
The letter paper was slightly yellowed, and there was some blood in the corners, Yin Zhige took it and opened it, and only a few numbers were written on it.
"Three days later, overnight three watches, distant mountains, there is something you want."
Zhong Xiaoshu was stunned for a moment after reading the content on the paper clearly.
"There seems to be a letter asking me to go to the distant mountains before, but I didn't go because I was afraid of fraud, could it be that they are the same people?"
Yin Zhige glanced at Zhong Xiaoshu in a complicated manner, he lit the note close to the red candle and threw it to the ground, quietly watching it burn to ashes.
"It seems that this distant mountain must be visited."
"Can't go," Zhong Xiaoshu stopped him.
"What if there is a deception, those people are in the dark, they are even more scheming, they are so cunning, what if they lie to you and set an ambush on it?"
Yin Zhige patted the back of her hand and smiled, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't be able to get the tiger."
We can't always be in a passive state, and only by taking the initiative can we have a chance to win. ”
Seeing that he couldn't change Yin Zhige's mind, Zhong Xiaoshu sighed, "Then I'll go with you, and I also received the letter." ”
"You're here to take care of the kids, I'll be fine."
Yin Zhige and Zhong Xiaoshu repeatedly. assured, only to dispel the idea that she wanted to go with her.
On the day of the appointment, Yin Zhige arranged for many secret guards to follow him secretly and went up the distant mountain alone.
As soon as I was halfway up the mountain, fog began to rise on the mountain.
The fog got heavier and heavier the higher it went, and the visibility was very poor when it came to the back, Yin Zhige didn't continue to move forward, he stood in place.
After a while, there was a sound of breaking the air behind him, and he dodged sideways, and an arrow flew past his eye.
Yin Zhige took half a step back, he closed his eyes, and after making sure that he was okay, he looked up in a random direction.
After a while, the same voice sounded behind him.
It's really a big deal, I'm afraid there are a lot of archers hidden around here, and Yin Zhige is not afraid.
He stood still, and the archers, who were hiding in the shadows, did not know what to do when they saw that he did not go any further.
The archer at the head took the arrow and pulled the bow, slowly aiming at Yin Zhige's heart, and before the person next to him stopped him, the arrow flew out.
At the moment when the arrow flew out, a dagger came from behind them, and before they could react, it grazed their necks.
Blood poured out, and the smell of blood filled the air, surging up and down.
Yin Zhige took a step back, grazing the arrow to avoid it.
The Dark Guard has infiltrated and eliminated most of the archers, leaving only a few who have escaped.
The fog cleared a little, and Yin Zhige continued to climb up, encountering many traps along the way, and even encountered a group of snakes.
After all the troubles were solved, he climbed to the top of the hill and saw a man standing with his back to him.
The man's hair was already completely white, and Yin Zhige took a step forward.
Suddenly, archers appeared in the surrounding trees, and all arrows were directed at him.
The Dark Guard stealthily waits in the darkness for an opportunity.
"Who are you?"
Yin Zhige looked at the back and asked, the man slowly turned around, and after Yin Zhige saw the person's face clearly, his expression became a little ugly.
"Don't come unharmed, the current Xichuan Emperor."
The man said with a smile, Yin Zhige pursed his lips, put his hands behind his back, and his face was surprised, "It's you?" Grandfather? ”
There was no smile on his grandfather's face, and he looked at Yin Zhige, with a strange light in his cloudy eyes.
"Your Majesty is really difficult to invite, I have already sent an invitation to the queen, but it was torn up by the queen.
There was no way, so I had to ask Ambassador Qin to send an invitation to the old man, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame him. ”
The more Yin Zhige listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and his eyes became cold, "What did my grandfather do when he came to such a remote mountain, and asked me to come out to blow the wind?" ”
Grandfather snorted, "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't seen Your Majesty for a long time, and I heard that Your Majesty's reputation has not been good recently."
So I want to ask Your Majesty, can you still use things that don't belong to you? ”
"Grandfather, I don't understand what you say, the last time I met General Yan, I wasn't the emperor." The smile on Yin Zhige's face gradually faded.
The two sides confronted each other, and others could only feel the silent coercion.
"Your Majesty, where did you say that?
The old man never talks nonsense, it's true that the old man saved your life, and now he just wants you to sober up. ”
Yin Zhige squinted his eyes and didn't speak, and his grandfather laughed strangely, "I remember, it's the old man who is wrong, and he forgot to invite His Majesty on the invitation." ”
"Presumably a lot of things have happened in the capital recently, right?
First of all, the frontier violence. Chaos, King Yan was seriously injured, and now Ambassador Qin is seriously injured, what do you think, why are these? ”
"I think? If I think it's true, then my grandfather shouldn't be standing here now, but sitting in the straw of the prison and talking to me. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the fog around him became thicker again, and my grandfather stood there, and the mountain wind blew, blowing his cloak and hunting.
He coughed twice, nodded, and walked towards Yin Zhige on crutches step by step.
It may have just rained, but the road was muddy, and the old man walked a little slowly.
He took two steps and stood still, and the dragon head crutch in his hand also emitted an eerie light.
"Your Majesty's young man is valiant and courageous, and he is very much beyond the reach of others."
He said something inexplicably, and Yin Zhige raised his eyebrows.
"Grandfather, you have been living in seclusion, and we have never met a few times, how did you learn about these things?"
Grandfather coughed again, and he smiled, the dry skin on his face wrinkled together, even more eerie in the darkness.
"You're smart, but that cleverness shouldn't be used here."
The moon was obscured by dark clouds, and the earth was instantly plunged into darkness.
Yin Zhige waved his hand, and the dark guard, who was ready to attack, immediately flew up and wiped out some of the archers.
The remaining archers opened their bows and shot arrows, and the dark guards held long swords to resist, and in the encirclement, Yin Zhige looked at his grandfather standing on a high place, with a complicated expression.
"There will be a period later, Your Majesty of Nishikawa."
Grandfather laughed, and the next second he disappeared into the darkness, and the dense rain of arrows stopped.
Yin Zhige chased forward, and there was nothing but the footprints that disappeared in place, like an oolong.
Yin Zhige's face suddenly sank.
First General Hu's grandfather, and now King Yan's, what is the relationship between all this?
