Chapter 203: Princess Xingling
Yue Ying waited for Zhao Zong's words to fall, then he slid forward and rushed forward to punch Zhao Zong's face, and at the same time, Tianxing immediately protected the jade rabbit behind him, and took a few steps back, Zhao Zong seemed to have expected everyone's behavior, and immediately turned sideways to avoid Yue Ying's fist, and then flashed to the corner of the wall to keep a certain distance from everyone, and then smiled faintly, "If I wanted to hurt you, I would have done it a long time ago, so why wait until now~!Besides, which of the three of you will be my opponent~!"
Although Zhao Zong's words are reasonable, but the three of Tianxing have always had doubts about his identity, before they don't know Zhao Zong's true purpose, it is difficult to believe his words, and he entered the prison alone, with the skills he just showed, not to mention that the three of them can hurt him, even the ordinary soldiers who captured him are difficult to catch him, thinking back to what Zhao Zong said before, maybe some of them are more or less true.
"And what are you here for?" asked Skystar first.
"Didn't you just say it in prison, in order to sneak into the city and inquire about some news~!" Zhao Zong replied.
"I guess it's more than that~!" Yue Ying continued, and Jade Rabbit nodded slightly on the side in agreement with what Yue Ying said.
"It seems that the three of you have never trusted me~!" Zhao Zong rubbed his nose, shook his head and said: "No wonder, the reputation of the people of the Zerg is indeed not very good, that is because human beings have always been afraid and curious about mysterious things, and it is the same as the people in the outside world, there are also good people and bad people, I can only tell you that we Zerg have always had ancient precepts,' If there is no disaster of extermination, the clansmen are not allowed to leave the wild land and participate in the disputes in the Five Elements Continent, otherwise they will be regarded as traitors, and the clansmen will kill them immediately~!' And I left the clan this time to eliminate the traitors. ”
"Traitor, how do we know you're not a traitor~!" asked Jade Rabbit.
"I~...."Zhao Zong thought for a moment and said, "I can't prove it~! If you don't believe me, after leaving here, we will separate." ”
"I believe it~!" Tianxing looked at Zhao Zong's eyes and said, "He can be regarded as having saved us, and he has not done anything to hurt us, so I believe in him, besides, none of us are his opponents, and he can protect us with his ability." ”
"What the young master said is extremely true, but if he doesn't hurt us now, it doesn't mean that he won't hurt us in the future, so I hope that when everyone is safe, I still ask Zhao Zong to leave, if we can help him in the future, we will also help him, and we can repay him for saving his life this time." ”
"Yes, I'm going to leave sooner or later anyway, don't worry, I'll be separated from you as soon as everyone is safe. Zhao Zong understood Yue Ying's concerns, and no longer argued for himself, besides, the purpose of his coming to the land country was not to make friends.
"Okay, let's keep walking~!" Yue Ying finished speaking, and walked towards the end of the passage with the spirit monkey.
"Slow down~!It is always a hidden danger for so many 'Breeding Stones' to stay here, I have a reluctant request to hope that Brother Tianxing will help me. Zhao Zong pleaded.
"Say it~!I'll do my best to help you. Tianxing replied.
"I see that the jade pendant tied to your waist is not extraordinary, it should be able to store items, I hope you put these 'breeding stones' into your jade pendant, if you stay here and be used by the traitors of the Zerg, it will definitely harm more people, why don't we take these 'breeding stones' away, maybe we can also come in handy in the future." Zhao Zong said cautiously.
Tianxing hesitated, "Yes, but I can't give you the jade pendant~!"
"Yes, Brother Skystar with me, I just don't want that traitor to get his wish. After Zhao Zong finished speaking, he stepped aside.
"Young master, you must think carefully, if you leave these 'breeding stones' by your side, you will inevitably get involved in the disputes of their zerg. Yue Ying reminded.
Tianxing hesitated for a moment, then took off the white jade pendant on his waist and held it in his hand, "If what he said is true, leaving these 'Breeding Stones' will breed more Gu worms for the traitors of the Zerg, and it will definitely harm more people's lives in the future, it is better to give him a fight, just bet on this Zhao Zong's character, if I can exchange my life for more people's lives, it will be worth it~!" After speaking, Tianxing pasted the jade pendant on the passage created by the 'Breeding Stone', and the full spiritual power continued to put the 'Breeding Stone' into the jade pendant.
Just as Tianxing was loading the 'Prosperous Stone' into the jade pendant, there was a burst of "click~" from the bottom of the passage
Click~click~!" Everyone stared at each other in shock, and the four of them were all here, so how could there be a sound of the door being opened at the bottom of the passage? The four people immediately looked at the source of the sound, and after seeing it clearly, they slowly took a breath, and it turned out that the golden haired spirit monkey ran to the bottom of the passage and opened the stone door hidden in the dark.
Tianxing no longer hesitated, quickly deposited the remaining 'Breeding Stones' into the jade pendant, and followed the spirit monkey with everyone into the stone gate.
After the four of them entered the stone gate with the spirit monkey, the stone gate behind them quickly closed, and before everyone could see where they were, they smelled a burst of fragrance. Tianxing and the others looked around and found that they were in a house, the tables and chairs carved from fine sandalwood were placed in the center of the room, the finely carved hibiscus flowers on them were lifelike, a few pieces of rice paper were placed on the table, two lines of delicate words were written, the delicate brushwork and the furnishings in the room were everywhere with the gentle feeling of belonging to the girl's family, the doors and windows were made of precious purple bamboo, the purple tulle swayed with the wind blowing slowly, and there were several girls' dresses on the bed.
"This is....~" Jade Rabbit slowly walked to the dresser in front of the window, reached out and carefully picked up a purple bamboo grate, on which there were a few slender black hairs, and said in surprise: "This~This~ is the princess who was named the 'Star Spirit' princess - Guiping room, how did we come here~!"
"What~!This is the princess's boudoir~!Ordinary women's boudoir is not allowed to men to enter casually, let alone the boudoir of the princess of the golden branch and jade leaf, a few of us men entered the princess's boudoir without authorization, if it is known, it is the crime of killing the head, and before anyone finds out, we must leave immediately~!" Zhao Zong said immediately when he heard what Jade Rabbit said.
"Not bad~!Hurry up, you can't stay here late~!" Tianxing agreed.
So the four of them immediately turned around and prepared to leave, just when they saw a figure next to the bed behind Jade Rabbit, a figure suddenly flashed, and quickly rushed behind Jade Rabbit, and before everyone could react, they saw a bright dagger, which was already in front of Jade Rabbit's neck.
"Who are you, how did you come out of the secret passage in my room~!" The woman stared at Tianxing and the others vigilantly, and the dagger in her hand was even more fierce against the jade rabbit, for fear that everyone would make a move.
"Princess, don't do it~!We are just ordinary rural villagers, and we were arrested and put in prison by the city lord for no reason without breaking the law. Zhao Zong replied immediately.
"Nonsense, only the people of my royal family know how to open the secret passage built here, you came here unknowingly in a hurry, how did the few stone doors in the middle open~?
"Princess, don't worry, I'm Jade Rabbit~!They are my friends, we really escaped from the dungeon, what we said just now is the truth, the reason why we can come here is because of the path led by that spirit monkey~!" Although Jade Rabbit was restrained by the princess, she was afraid that more misunderstandings would occur, so she immediately explained to the princess.
'Star Spirit' Princess Guiping, when she heard Jade Rabbit's voice, immediately glanced at Jade Rabbit, and asked in disbelief: "Is it really you~Doctor Jade Rabbit?~!How can you mix with these thieves~!"
"This is a long story, Your Royal Highness Princess, you better put down the dagger in your hand first, so as not to hurt the Jade Rabbit~!" Yue Ying saw that the princess knew the Jade Rabbit, so he wanted to ease the relationship between them and said.
"Hmph~!Don't think~!Rebellious ministers and thieves~A nest of snakes and rats~!It must be that this jade rabbit has taken advantage of the time of practicing medicine in my palace in the past few years to secretly investigate and know the location of the secret passage, and today I want to cooperate with you thieves to steal into my palace to rebel when my father is critically ill, and you have achieved your goal of seeking power and usurping the throne, hum~Isn't it~?" Gui Ping said angrily.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't get me wrong~ If you really want to know the truth, I can tell you, but maybe even if I say it, you won't believe it~!" said Tianxing, who had never spoken.
"Who are you?~!" Keihei said cautiously.
"In the next Tianxing~!Maybe you don't know that I am..."Before Tianxing's words were finished, the sharp blade in Guiping's hand fell to the ground with a bang~', let go of the jade rabbit, his eyes were confused, as if he was drunk, his body began to shake from side to side, and he kept muttering: "Tianxing~Tianxing~ Be careful... Be careful of the 'ruins'~!Be careful... Be careful...", and then slumped to the ground as soon as he went limp.
Everyone didn't know what was going on, they stared at each other and then looked at the princess, and then it was only in this short moment that Guiping's will immediately regained consciousness, and he found himself sitting on the ground, and then immediately got up and picked up the dagger on the ground, and clasped his hands to everyone: "Dare to use demon magic to confuse me, come to someone~ Come to someone..." Before the words were shouted, Zhao Zong rushed in front of him with an arrow step, and was tightly clasped by his backhand to his throat, firmly holding out half a sentence.
Seeing that the princess was in great contrast for a moment, Tianxing was very puzzled and asked, "What does the princess mean by 'ruins' just now?"
"I don't know what you say about the 'ruins'~!If you are interested, let me go quickly, otherwise you will be captured and killed by my guards~!" The princess's throat was tightly held by Zhao Zong, and she couldn't speak loudly, but she still refused to give in.
Tianxing was stunned for a moment, and was about to continue asking, Yue Ying on the side whispered in his ear: "Young master, don't ask, she really doesn't know what she said just now, just now I vaguely felt that there was a faint wisp of soul breath hidden in her body, and she disappeared after saying that paragraph, and that wisp of soul breath did not belong to this Guiping at all~ It seems that I have been waiting here to pass you some information~ The young master still keeps it in mind, be careful that the 'ruins' are~!"
Tianxing glanced at Gui Ping in disbelief, saw his vicious eyes, and then looked at Yue Ying, feeling confused.
"Let's let me tell you~" Yue Ying called the spirit monkey lightly, and then put it on his shoulder and gently stroked the spirit monkey's slightly trembling body, and recounted the reason why he and Tianxing came here from the beginning, and after Yue Ying finished speaking, Gui Ping looked at the spirit monkey in disbelief and said: "According to what you say, this monkey has my brother's soul attached to it?"
Yue Ying nodded, Gui Ping hesitated and stared at the spirit monkey tightly, and the spirit monkey also had tears in his eyes, looking at Gui Ping quietly, Zhao Zong saw that Gui Ping no longer resisted and slowly took away the right hand that grabbed her.
Guiping looked at everyone thoughtfully, and then said to Yue Ying: "Although my brother's behavior is indeed strange now, and he is the same as before, how can you make me easily believe your words, unless you let this spirit monkey come up with some proof~!"
