Chapter 25: The Prelude
Lord Xiaolan eventually left the imperial capital. Although her final decision was still her own choice.
"Go back, lord. The next thing is the most important thing. Ye Qing said.
King Dingxing rubbed his eyes and said, "Well, I'll go to the palace now." Let's get started as soon as possible. ”
The two separated, Ye Qing came directly to the mansion of the Shenji Battalion, and after reporting his name, the doorman also let him in directly, it seems that Chu Yun must have greeted them.
Coming to the room where Chu Yun was, Chu Yun sat at the table and dealt with some documents.
"Master Ye, why are you here?" Chu Yun raised his head and asked.
"There's one thing I want to discuss with you. Ye Qing sat down and replied.
"Oh?" Chu Yun was a little curious: "What's the matter?"
"Let's go and get Chu Qi back, she is the only breakthrough now. Ye Qing said.
Hearing Chu Qi's name, Chu Yun's face also flashed with complicated feelings, she stood up and walked in front of Ye Qing and said, "The world is so big, how can you find it?" besides, she obviously deliberately avoided us. ”
"You've probably heard of the Dragon Formation Formation. Ye Qing looked at Chu Yun with a very serious expression on his face.
Hearing the words 'Dragon Guiding Array', Chu Yun was also a little moved, she had heard of this magic circle when she was a child, it was a method to locate the position of the body according to the residual spiritual power emitted by people, if you can really use this magic circle, then it is not impossible to find Chu Qi, but I heard that it has long been lost, is it possible that Ye Qing will deploy this magic circle?
"Isn't that formation already lost?" Chu Yun asked.
"There are some records about the magic circle in the Wu'an Hou Mansion, and the Dragon Guiding Array is among them. Ye Qing said, his face moved slightly, and continued: "I don't want to use these things if I can, it's just that the current situation is special." ”
After speaking, Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's just that if you can go to the last place where Chu Qi appeared, the positioning will be more accurate." This is going to bother you. ”
After Ye Qing finished speaking, Chu Yun agreed to Ye Qing's proposal after a little thought, and told Ye Qing that he would be able to leave after handling some of the things at hand, probably around noon the next day.

After making an agreement with Chu Yun, Ye Qing thought about whether to report this matter to the emperor after walking out of the Shenji Camp, originally the emperor had clearly said that he would not let the Shenji Camp interfere in this matter, although Chu Yun was involved in another case, but so far no one knows the relationship between Chu Yun's case and the task he is currently performing.
Moreover, the information in Chu Yun's mouth has not yet been confided in Ye Qing, which makes it impossible for Ye Qing to kick Chu Yun away.
Chu Yun's matter, let's hide it first.
Ye Qing thought about walking into the palace, briefly reported the current situation to the emperor and put forward an application to find Chu Qi, and the emperor quickly agreed, and asked Gao Lie and Meng Ran to accompany them, on the one hand, the strength of the two of them is obvious to all, on the other hand, this matter has always been the responsibility of Ye Qing, Gao Lie and Meng Ran.
After getting the approval, Ye Qing went to find Gao Lie, now the time is almost noon, although it is almost winter, but the sun at this time is also very comfortable, and Gao Lie, this kid, has a bed board and lies there while basking in the sun while watching the training of his subordinates, it is simply comfortable.
Seeing Ye Qing coming, Gao Lie turned over and looked at Ye Qing and said, "Yo! Isn't this Ah Qing! Why do you have time to come to my place to wander around?"
After Ye Qing explained his intentions, Gao Lie also agreed in one bite, he was feeling that life was boring, and now he had an errand to go out.
After Gao Lie finished speaking, the next thing was Meng Ran.
Meng Ran was not like Gao Lie on his side, but he also stared at the sun and trained with his subordinates, and left the team when he saw Ye Qing coming.
As soon as Meng Ran heard that Ye Qing had brought the emperor's message, he was about to kneel down in a hurry, but was pulled up by Ye Qing.
As soon as Meng Ran heard that Ye Qing had brought the emperor's message, he was about to kneel down in a hurry, but was pulled up by Ye Qing. Ye Qing explained that this was just His Majesty's will to agree to their continued investigation, not a verbal message, so he gave up.
Gao Lie also came to Meng Ran with Ye Qing, and the specific details of some things were to be told to the two of them, and it was convenient to call everyone together.
"This operation is to go to a small village called the outskirts of Qingyun City, where the residents are the same as the people of Ling Ping before, all of them have turned into white bones, and none of them have been spared, and this matter is very likely to be done by the same group of people as Ling Ping. ”
"But we're not here to get those people out, because that was many days ago. We went there because there was another person there. ”
"Former high priest of the court, Chu Qi. ”
Ye Qing said, Meng Ran frowned, feeling that things were not simple, while Gao Lie was sitting on a chair with his chin under his mouth and didn't know what to do.
However, Ye Qing didn't plan to explain it to Gao Lie, for Gao Lie, he only needed to tell him where to go, and he couldn't remember anything else.
"I thought before when I was in Ling Ping, no matter what, Chu Qi couldn't let her go, there were too many things in her mouth that didn't tell us. It's a pity that she was allowed to run in the end. This time, after we find Chu Qi, we must bring her back, and we can use force under special circumstances. Ye Qing said
"It's just that with Chu Qi's strength, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to forcibly bring her back. Meng Ran voiced her concerns.
"You don't have to worry about that. Ye Qing said: "This time, there is also the second deputy position of the Shenji Battalion, Chu Yun. ”
"Chu Yun......" Meng Ran muttered in a low voice.
"In short, the general situation is like this, time is pressing, Your Majesty's side has already agreed, then what we have to do now is to explain all the things at hand in the shortest possible time, and gather at the city gate early tomorrow morning and set off!"
......
After explaining to the two, Ye Qing also went back to his dormitory, in fact, Ye Qing had almost nothing on his hands, and this night's time was handed over to Chu Yun and Meng Ran, Gao Lie's virtue, it would be strange to be able to do things by himself. Among the nearly 10,000 people in the Royal Forest Army, that is, Meng Ran's subordinates were the most relaxed. He likes to do everything himself, and this is what the Commander of the Imperial Forest Army appreciates the most.
......
Early the next morning, Ye Qing suddenly woke up from his dream, and after sitting up, he found that his clothes were wet again.
It's that dream again......
Ye Qing didn't know why, since he came back from Ling Ping, that dream had appeared more and more frequently, and it was not pleasant for a nightmare to be haunted all the time......
When he got up, Ye Qing washed his face and swept away the irritability in his heart, at this time, the sky was not yet bright, and the sun only had a trace of brilliance sprinkled on the world. After getting dressed, Ye Qing came to the cafeteria and found that the canteen had already begun to move buns outside one by one.
Ye Qing approached, and the old king in charge of the canteen saw Ye Qing at a glance, and he greeted Ye Qing with a smile: "Lord Ye, why is it so early today!"
Ye Qing stepped forward and looked at the steamer in front of Lao Wang and said, "Give me two bean paste buns." ”
"Gotcha!" Lao Wang agreed, opened the corner of the steamer, grabbed two buns, put them in a bowl and handed them to Ye Qing.
After eating the buns, Ye Qing drank a sip of water, and then seemed to remember something, so he walked towards the outside of the palace, and came to the Wu'an Hou Mansion along the way.
At this time, the Hou Mansion was already empty, but there was a feeling that the Chinese were walking for tea.
Taking out the key from his pocket, Ye Qing opened the door and walked directly to the room where he had hidden the ancient books.
It was a pretty large bookshelf, but this one had two layers, separated by a wooden board in the middle, making it difficult to spot.
Pulling out the wooden board, Ye Qing took down the ancient book that had been put in it from the back layer. I rolled it casually, but I still couldn't understand a word.
Ye Qing wondered if he should hand this thing over to King Dingxing...... After thinking about it, forget it, King Dingxing already has part of the content of the copy given by Zhang Lin, if you want to take these books, you should take them with you, maybe when you can encounter something with the same handwriting on it.
When he came out of the Hou Mansion again, the sun had gradually risen in mid-air, and those people must have been waiting for them at the city gate. So Ye Qing also hurriedly walked towards the city gate.
......
"You said, where can Ah Qing go, I heard Lao Wang say that he went to eat steamed buns early, and we didn't find him when we went to his room. Gao Lie sat bored on the ground and asked Meng Ran.
Meng Ran didn't take care of Gao Lie, but glanced at Chu Yun beside him.
Although Chu Yun himself also knows a general idea, the two of them have nothing to do with each other, either at work or in private. What puzzled him the most was that His Majesty had always let the Shenji Battalion handle any case alone, and there had never been any such thing as a joint case, so how could he let the second deputy of the Shenji Battalion perform such an important task with him this time......
While thinking about it, a shout dragged Meng Ran's mind directly back to reality.
"Ah Qing! here!" Sure enough, it was Gao Lie, with such a loud voice, Meng Ran didn't have to think about it, there was no one else but Gao Lie.
Looking in the direction of Gao Lie's shout, Ye Qingzheng walked over.
"I'm sorry, I'm late. Ye Qing apologized.
"Hey, what's the matter!" Gao Lie put his arm around Ye Qing's shoulders and said.
Ye Qing's gaze swept over Chu Yun and Chu Yun didn't stop, but simply said, "Since everyone is here, then let's go." Target, Qingyun City!"
When Meng Ran came, he brought four fast horses, one by one, and galloped towards Qingyun City on horseback.
