Chapter 300: The Praying Mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows
At this time, the tip of the nose was fragrant, turning into a faint incense mist, Wei Junyao appeared in the hole with his hands in the ground, turned his head and frowned at me, and said softly: "Do you suspect that it is your mother?" ”
I shook my head, looked around me again, and when I found nothing, I shook my head and said, "I don't know, I feel like the song is talking about my home." ”
Wei Junyao stared at me for a long time and was silent, and only after a while did she break the silence and said: "Don't worry about it so much, it's past the ugly time, and your father will be beheaded in six hours, go to the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs first, and wait until your father is rescued, and then make plans." ”
"Then who do you think that crazy woman is, what does it have to do with me, the ballad she sang is to tell me that it was my grandfather who killed my mother, and my father has already died?"
I raised my head, looked at Wei Junyao and muttered.
Wei Junyao squinted at me and didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "Then do you believe that your grandfather will kill your mother with his own hands?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, then shook my head: "I don't believe it." ”
"Then come with me!"
Wei Junyao grabbed my hand as she spoke, got out of the tunnel and quickly came to the river, and gently waved her wide sleeve robe at the river, and saw that the river suddenly began to tumble violently, just like boiling a pot, the waves were turbulent and undulating.
I am still confused by the picture sung in the song, unable to extricate myself, but in the blurred eyes, I saw a huge shadow of water faintly appeared under the tumbling river, a little floating, the ears heard a "bang" splash, a water stained, rusty iron boat, from the bottom of the river surface, gently shook for a while, slowly sliding, sailing to the shore.
Tin ghost ship?
I was stunned, but Wei Junyao had already grabbed the soles of my hands and feet and kicked lightly, and the whole person was fluttering like a fairy flying in the nine heavens pulling me directly from the river bank to the splint, and before my heels could stand firmly, the iron ghost boat sailed to the center of the river again, gradually sinking.
At this time, the strange man in the secret room was already standing at the entrance of the cabin, bowed down and made a gesture of please, Wei Junyao took me to turn around and go down to the cabin, and entered the secret room, only to see the strange man standing there, kneeling down on one knee at Wei Junyao, and said respectfully: "Princess Wu." ”
"You two know each other?"
I was suddenly a little stunned, and looked at Wei Junyao incredulously, the timing and occasion of the two appearances of the iron ghost ship came to my mind, and I said in disbelief: "He has always been sent by you to protect me?" ”
"That day, Bai Gongzi had difficulties in eighteen miles, and it was Princess Wushan who instructed the little one to borrow the east wind for the son, and specially instructed not to expose the identity of the princess, so she kept hiding it from the princess, hoping not to be surprised."
Seeing the strange man's undeniable response, I didn't know how to speak for a while, and was silent for a long time before I said to Wei Junyao: "I owe too much love, and I don't know how to thank you." ”
Wei Junyao flicked his sleeves, smiled at me, and then regained his solemnity, looked at the strange man and said lightly: "What is the situation below?" ”
"The lord of Jiuquan Mansion, including the four adults, has all rushed to Mingquan Prison, several Yin soldiers stationed in Jiuquan have also gone there, and the Dragon King of the Ghost Gate has also arrived, only the eight-handed immortal monkey is still on the way, but before the beheading, there should be no problems."
The strange man replied respectfully.
Wei Junyao nodded, and said in a deep voice: "What about the Jiudao estuary, how is the situation?" ”
The strange man thought for a moment and replied: "The mouth of the Jiudao River is the same as usual, except that a few days ago, many Yin soldiers passed by and rushed to the Mingquan River, but they have already walked almost the same, and it can be said that the wind and waves are calm. ”
After that, he hesitated for a moment and said: "I just heard that the nine ferrymen in the Nine Springs, except for the Huangquan Ferry, have all returned to the Nine Springs Mansion, and the Yellow Springs ferryman is now missing, I don't know if it will cause trouble to the princess's plan then." ”
Second grandfather?
Thinking of the scene where the second grandfather blocked the Shura knife in Zero Rain City that day, he couldn't help but ask: "Then the Huangquan ferryman, there is nothing wrong, right?" ”
The strange man looked at me with a frown, as if he did not understand the meaning of my words, but replied, "I saw him once yesterday, and there is no mistake. ”
This time I'm even more strange, the second grandfather took action to stop the Shura knife in order to save me, even if he could fight, how could he continue to go back to be his Huangquan ferryman without any situation, is there any relationship between him and the Shura knife?
But no matter what, after learning that the second grandfather was fine, the stone that had been hanging in my heart finally fell to the ground, but the crazy woman had already escaped, and the ghost baby of the Yellow River was also snatched away by a mysterious person.
When there was silence, Wei Junyao was silent for a moment and said, "In other words, now that the masters of the Nine Spring Rivers, including the Nine Prison Cities, are all concentrated in the Mingquan Prison, and the entire Nine Prisons and Nine Springs garrison is empty?" ”
Wei Junyao had something to say, not only me, but even the strange man's face changed, and he looked at Wei Junyao and hesitated: "Princess, what do you mean?" ”
Wei Junyao let out a sneer, waved the long sleeve in his hand and said, "Inform General Wu that everything is going according to plan." ”
The strange man was stunned, but he still answered, turned around and left the secret room.
After the stranger left and closed the door, I looked at Wei Junyao suspiciously, and said, "What plan?" ”
Wei Junyao smiled: "Don't worry, I won't do stupid things, it's just that Jiuquan Mansion has been too quiet over the years, and it will be easier for us to have some fun for them." ”
I nodded, and didn't continue to ask, Wei Junyao's control of the situation is far from being comparable to me, a half-person, turned over the doom in his hand, and recalled the scene before he fainted, although I don't know who the mysterious person who snatched the ghost baby of the Yellow River away was, but I couldn't help but think of a sentence in my mind: The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.
With the situation at that time, Jin Peng and the others did not make a little movement when they disappeared, they should not have fought with the mysterious man, no matter how strong the mysterious man was, it was impossible to kill everyone inside and outside the house in an instant, and he couldn't even make a sound, and judging from the breath movement at that time, he rushed in from outside the courtyard, and killed decisively, and left without the slightest hesitation after taking the target, but the palm at that time could not only knock me unconscious, but also kill me, but why did he keep his hand again?
Decisive killing, clear target......
The mysterious man's style of acting reminded me of a person's name, but after a brief appearance in my mind, I forcibly waved away, not in disbelief, but in disbelief that if that person was really him, and things were really as I imagined, this shrouded the overall situation of the entire Sancha Bay, maybe before I realized it, it had already begun......
After a slight shaking of the tin ghost boat, a strange voice came from outside the door: "Princess, Bai Gongzi, the Huangquan River has arrived." ”
Wei Junyao nodded, then looked at me, and said softly: "Don't think so much, there will be a day when the truth will be revealed." ”
Leaving the cabin, time seemed to go back to the first time I went to Jiuquan Jiuquan, and the first time I came to Huangquan Ferry, but it was not the red carp standing next to him, but Wei Junyao.
The two of them stood at the foggy ferry, watching the iron boat slowly sail away, I saw Wei Junyao appear here in such a grand manner, and said with some hesitation: "Aren't you afraid that someone will recognize you?" ”
Wei Junyao smiled: "The entire Nine Prisons and Nine Springs have seen no more than five of my true faces, and these five people are all in Mingquan Prison at this time, what are you afraid of." ”
I nodded, looked at the slowly flowing Huangquan River, and was thinking about how to get to the mouth of the Jiuquan River, when I saw a gently swaying yellow light appear in the mist.
Is it the second grandfather?
My heart trembled, and I clenched Wei Junyao's hand unconsciously, watching the yellow light swaying, gradually driving in front of me, and couldn't help but speak: "Second grandfather! ”
"Huh!"
As soon as a small boat and a figure appeared, a familiar voice echoed in my ears.
The second grandfather slowly docked on the shore with the canopy boat, looked at me and then at Wei Junyao, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, this is my grandson who brought me my granddaughter-in-law." ”
My old face was red, and I didn't dare to look at Wei Junyao, but I saw her bow down to the second grandfather and said, "I've seen the second grandfather." ”
The second grandfather nodded and smiled, stroked the beard on his chin with his hand, glanced Wei Junyao up and down, pondered for a moment, and said, "I don't know how many people the princess brought with her this time?" ”
