Chapter 143: A princess is not a princess
After negotiating with the monks guarding the temple, Chu Yu walked in with Yue Jiefei and A Man, and the corpses of several monks killed by Jianke were neatly placed side by side on the ground in the main courtyard.
Chu Yu instructed Yue Jie Fei to come forward to inspect the body, and then asked the monk next to him about the situation, according to the monk who saw the assassin killing, the assassin was wrapped in black clothes, wearing a hat, and half of his face was also covered with black satin, so he couldn't see his appearance at all, but every time the assassin swung his sword, he would let out a sharp and sharp whistle that made people palpitate, like a crane.
"It's a crane, absolutely yes." After Chu Yu asked, Yue Jiefei also finished checking the corpse, returned to Chu Yu, took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood stains from his fingertips, "The few corpses left behind are his usual killing methods, stabbing straight to the throat, a fatal sword, vicious and sinister, and the crane has another well-known characteristic, that is, every time he is about to take out the sword, the sword will scream like a crane, which is also the origin of his nickname." ”
Chu Yu nodded and said, "In this way, the assassin is a crane, and it is absolutely true. "But why did he kill Silence? Was it by chance that the person he was going to kill was what she was looking for, or did she come to find Silence and what did it have to do with him?
Crane? How can it be a Crane?
What does he have to do with Wang Yizhi's silence? What does it have to do with what Wang Yizhi wants to tell her?
Chu Yu intuitively felt as if he had overlooked something, and the truth shouldn't be like this. It shouldn't have been the end of it, but the more anxious she became. The more she can't remember the elements she has overlooked.
Why Tsuruju? Her whole mind was now drawn to this question.
****************************
Standing in front of Rong Zhi, the man in black took off the black clothes he was covering outside, revealing a bright red inside.
Hua Cuo pulled off the mask and slapped the wind next to his face to sweep away the stuffiness on his skin: "It's not good for you to let me pretend to be someone?" Do you want to pretend to be that nasty ghost to kill people? ”
Rong Zhi smiled leisurely: "You two are really children, it's just a trivial matter a few years ago, and you can make trouble until now." No one bows their heads and admits their mistakes. "Let Hua Cuo do this, because Hua Cuo understands that the two of them used to be close friends, whether it is the way they use the sword or the sound of the crane when the sword is out, Hua Cuo can be vividly simulated.
Hua Tout pursed his lips disdainfully: "Don't compare me to him." I'm not the same as him, I'm done, I'm done, the princess won't find it, I'll go back and rest. ”
Rong Zhi nodded slightly, his body leaned on the bluestone platform, and the bamboo forest also looked a little bleak in the autumn, and the bluestone platform was cold and cold, and the autumn mood seeped into the clothes from the stone. Invade his body again. But Rong Zhi didn't feel cold, his gaze was soft and calm. It doesn't look like he just ordered to kill people. Only a folded piece of paper was taken out of the sleeve and unfolded to look at it. The ink on the paper is like this: between heaven and earth, I am free to see the words, and I don't have to send them.
Looking at the last remnants of the sunset, the pinholes on the paper were combined into a single word "ran", Rong Zhi sighed and said to himself: "I didn't expect Wang Yizhi to leave such a hand before leaving." ”
Fortunately, this morning, Hua Cuo caught a glimpse of Chu Yu after going out, looking at the paper with a strange expression, taking advantage of the period when he returned to the house, he told him the ins and outs of today's life, and stole the paper from Chu Yu's clothes according to his explanation.
When he saw the wisdom of hiding words in the words, even if he thought through a lot, he didn't ask about the cause and effect at all, and he didn't need to go to Lonely or Wang Yizhi to verify anything, he simply said to Hua Wrong: "Kill." ”
Then he added: "Pretend to be a crane." ”
So sharp, so decisive, so ruthless, so meticulous.
And no mercy.
The only pity is that it took the wrong party to come back and report and did not succeed in killing Silence, and he escaped by him at a critical moment, but he left a deep wound for Silence, and if no one rescued him for a while, he would be bloodied and died.
Hengzhi is not allowed to let the princess see the loneliness of being alive, since the fundamental purpose has been achieved, there are some deviations in the process, and tolerance does not care very much.
"Wang Yizhi's ......" Rong Zhi slowly crumpled the paper and carefully withdrew the crumbs in his arms, and couldn't help but smile, "Don't you have to send it away?" You can see that even if you see that the princess is not a princess, you ignore her, and only treat her as a Zichu who knows you. ”
Wang Yizhi's freedom is far beyond his reach, but he does not envy or yearn for it, he clearly understands in his heart that he and Wang Yizhi are two completely different people, this is their own choice, sober and rational, and will not regret it.
After carefully calculating the various routes in the future, the role of the chess pieces he had in his hands, the effect of all aspects, and the intersection of influences in all aspects were very heavy and trivial, but he was still not in a hurry, and the ones were combed smoothly as if they were peeling off the cocoon, as if there was a powerful steel hand invisibly, and these things were steadily integrated and concentrated.
I don't know how long it took, he felt a little tired, so he slowly closed his eyes, and fell asleep in the embroidery forest.
When you close your eyes, twilight falls, and darkness falls.
*********************************
In the next few days, Chu Yu was sending people to look for Silent Ran, she still had the last glimmer of hope in her heart, and if she didn't see Silent Ran's body, she couldn't say for sure that he was dead.
To live to see a man and to die to see a corpse.
In addition to looking for Silence, Chu Yu also wanted to find Wang Yizhi, but this aspect seemed to be more difficult to find than Silence, Wang Yizhi left the day before she saw the words, until she knew that Silence was dead, it had been more than a day, and she had already gone away, and she didn't know Wang Yizhi's goal, and she was even more reluctant to look for it with great fanfare, lest Wang Yizhi had already been killed before she saw Wang Yizhi.
In addition to sending people inside and outside the city to search for Silent Ran's whereabouts, Chu Yu would go to the slum where Wang Yizhi lived every day, hoping to learn from the surrounding population about Wang Yizhi's words and deeds before leaving, hoping to deduce some clues from it.
After several days of disappointment, Chu Yu finally showed a clue, a resident across the street from Wang Yizhi took Chu Yu to a dirty and old wooden house, only to see a big hole leaking in the roof of the wooden house, and the door and wall were covered with rotten damage, as if the weather-beaten house would collapse with a little push.
The house was inhabited by a lame man who made straw sandals, but a few years ago he had been a guard in the inner garden of the princess's house.
