Chapter 55: Attacked
It was night, pitch black, and the thick smell of the sea was everywhere in the air.
Because of the sea rage, the whole imperial city was still noisy, and the people were panicked, and the double disaster of the sea rage and the earthquake almost put their spirits on the verge of collapse.
There were also many crying sounds, the door separated the two worlds, and outside the door of life and death, there were many of their relatives, and when the panic passed, the people who calmed down began to miss their relatives.
And in such a chaotic place, no one would pay attention to the two figures that suddenly appeared.
Tang Ruyan and the palace maid Zi'er walked out of the palace smoothly, and their coarse cloth clothes quickly drowned them in the crowd. It's not that the palace guards are incompetent, it's that they're taking a secret passage.
Everything was arranged by Mama Rong, and when she opened the entrance of a secret passage to let the two of them leave, Tang Ruyan's surprise could be imagined. All kinds of speculations came to her mind, Mama Rong, the master and queen who served were all locked up in such a place, but she was guarding the empty courtyard unharmed, as if she was an outsider.
And when the queen asked her to find her, she showed her amazing ability to do things, hiding the palace maid, hiding Tang Ruyan, she didn't find the whereabouts of the child, she refused to leave, but Rong Mama said: "There is no room for you here, princess, you can leave quickly to ensure safety, and leave the affairs in the palace to the old man to do." ”
It seems to be a simple sentence, but Tang Ruyan knows how difficult it is to fulfill such a promise in this heavily guarded palace, but she believes that Mama Rong has that ability.
Even the start is so good, so how can the queen be willing to stay in such a place? Even Mama Rong has enough ability to send her away? Did she do it on purpose?
Tang Ruyan walked with his head down, thinking about those possibilities all the way, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt the seriousness of the matter. The women in the harem are really different from what she thinks, and they are all hidden masters.
The gentle and beautiful Shen Momo, the dignified and beautiful Lan Xin, and the Fu Jinxin who was tortured in the cold palace, they are like a mystery, but what about her? Although she couldn't remember the past, during this time, she intuitively felt that these three women had a great relationship with her.
Tang Ruyan frowned, all along, although she couldn't control her fate, she was still very confident in her ability, but in this place, she found that she was like a cocoon, the more she struggled, the closer she was trapped.
Hoisted by his own petard!
Tang Ruyan smiled bitterly, of course he was not cocooned, if he didn't guess wrong, it was the three women who were cocooning.
Looking up at the dark night, there was not a single twinkling star, and the black tomb, like a giant beast with a bloody mouth, would swallow it all into its belly at any time.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Zi'er saw Tang Ruyan looking up at the sky and sighing, she could see that she was divine, and had to remind her.
Tang Ruyan immediately came back to her senses, glanced at Zi'er and continued to hurry. But the alarm bell was already ringing in her heart, and when she turned around, she happened to meet Zi'er's eyes, and in her eyes, Tang Ruyan saw a flash of blood-red light.
Soul Control? Tang Ruyan couldn't help but have these three words in his heart, but then he shook his head again, his intuition was impossible. As an agent, she also learned some strange magic, and soul control is the most commonly used one, and temporarily controlling the opponent's soul is a guarantee that her mission will be successfully completed every time.
But in such a place, is there also soul control art? Thinking of the profundity of the history and culture of the Chinese nation, Tang Ruyan believes that it is not impossible, and that kind of ancient evil art cannot be traced. If it's really soul control?! Tang Ruyan couldn't help but shudder, being able to remotely control the other party's soul made it difficult for the people around her to detect it, I have to say how powerful the person who performed this technique was.
Could it be Mama Yung? When she returned to Mama Rong, where was Zi'er already there, or was she the queen? It doesn't matter if these are the two of them, because the two of them are on the same front, and it doesn't matter who performs it, the important thing is that the two of them must know about it.
"I'm a little unwell, maybe I'm too tired, let's go quickly." Tang Ruyan avoided it lightly, but she didn't ignore Zi'er's observation in a hurry, but in any case, she couldn't startle the snake for the time being.
"Yes." Zi'er readily agreed, and followed behind Tang Ruyan almost at a trot all the way.
"Whoosh." The sound of metal breaking through the air came straight in the direction of Tang Ruyan.
Tang Ruyan, who had been focusing on Zi'er, didn't realize it until the secret weapon was very close to her, but she had lost the best time to dodge, so she didn't think much about it immediately, raised her hand and waved a palm, and a force rushed towards the hidden weapon, and she just deflected the hidden weapon.
The hidden weapon landed on the ground with a crunching sound.
"Who? Come out. Tang Ruyan looked towards a corner.
After a moment of silence, a man came out of the corner, dressed in black and wearing a hat on his head.
This look is a little familiar! Tang Ruyan frowned slightly, thought carefully in his mind, and in just a moment, a name emerged - Jiahe!
The look of shock in Tang Ruyan's eyes was undoubtedly revealed, but the other party did not leave Tang Ruyan time to think, nor did he speak, and raised the weapon in his hand to Tang Ruyan.
"Master, be careful." Zi'er immediately pushed Tang Ruyan away, and it was also this push that Tang Ruyan could easily dodge, but now, she also dodged, but the sword in the hand of the man in black pierced Zi'er's body.
The man in black was stunned for a moment, but he did not hesitate to move, and with a wave of his hand, the long sword was pulled out of Zi'er's body, and blood spurted out.
"Zi'er." Tang Ruyan was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood this person's intention, not her, but Zi'er. But she still has a lot of things that she hasn't asked clearly, how could she let her die, and how can she get involved.
Things seem to be getting more and more complicated.
With a wave of his palm, a force was swung out, and the man in black was forced back a few points by the domineering internal force, but he did not stop, glanced at Zi'er in Tang Ruyan's arms, and attacked again.
Tang Ruyan immediately responded to the battle, although it was not clear who Zi'er was used for, but some people did not hesitate to face the enemy head-on, so it can be seen that she still guessed a few points correctly, and - she is becoming more and more interested, and there are really many people who are worried about her.
is in a secluded alley, but the time is different, there are also many people in the alley at this moment, because of the fight between the two, there is a mess around, afraid of being affected by the sword light, everyone hugging their heads and running away.
"Killed, killed." Frightened voices were heard from the crowd.
The two of them didn't care about those people, they only had each other in their eyes, after more than a dozen rounds, it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, the man in black had a long sword in his hand, and he had some advantages invisibly, while Tang Ruyan only had a dagger, her movements were very peculiar, but her strength was to win in close quarters, and obviously, the other party understood this.
In the distance, neat footsteps are running towards this place.
Tang Ruyan glanced at Zi'er, who was dying, and his cold gaze fell on the man in black, and the words that came out of his mouth were several times colder than that gaze: "Tell your master, if the person I want is missing, I will definitely use his blood to pay tribute." ”
Maybe it was forced by Tang Ruyan's strong momentum, or maybe it was frightened by the coldness in her eyes.
The man in black glanced at the people on the ground and put away his long sword, "This matter has nothing to do with my master, I acted privately, and I will take care of anything alone." ”
"You?" Tang Ruyan was full of surprise, "Why?" ”
"No why?" The man in black said calmly: "My duty is to protect the safety of my master, and you are too dangerous. ”
Dizzy! What the hell is this?
"I don't care what your reasons are, what I say will be done." Tang Ruyan couldn't pay attention to the thoughts of the man in black, and he didn't want to. The footsteps in the distance were getting closer, and she had to leave immediately.
"She can't live and shouldn't live." The man in black turned and left.
Tang Ruyan couldn't chase after her, so she immediately picked up Zi'er, ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around her, and flew away.
