Volume 1 Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects Chapter 7 Snake Eyes Jade Slave
The Son of Heaven, the son of the Emperor, was born by adhering to the luck of heaven and earth, and is not comparable to vulgar ordinary people. Or born with a vision, wind and rain, or the forehead is grandiose, with a divine light, looking at it and fearful.
The Taizu of this dynasty, the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, was originally a naughty cattle boy in the poor countryside, it is said that when he was born, the courtyard of the old Zhu family was full of red light, dazzling, and went straight to the sky.
The neighbors thought that there was a fire, and they all rushed into the yard with buckets and basins to put out the fire, but the yard was full of strange fragrances, such as in the fairy world Yao Pond, the children in their ears cried loudly, like a dragon roaring and a phoenix, and everyone was stunned.
The Son of Heaven is called Zhu Chongba when he is faint, and it is also the meaning of Zhu Baba, this Zhu Chongba really did not live up to the spirit of the Son of Heaven, in the chaotic times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he started as a monk, served as a guard, worked as a general, and finally changed his name to Zhu Yuanzhang to restore China.
Zhu Zhe, Zhu Ye, Yuan Zhe, Yuan Dynasty also, Zhang Zhe, sword-shaped jade also. Zhu Yuanzhang destroyed Chen Youliang from then on, defeated Zhang Shicheng, and drove the Yuan Dynasty to the extreme north. Change Jiqing to Ying Tianfu, enthroned as the emperor, to the "Book of Changes" in the first hexagram of the Qiangua hexagram interpretation of the "Ming always, six times become" as the training, the country name Daming, the year name Hongwu.
Being the emperor and governing the country and leveling the world is naturally a first-class event. However, in the future, it is time to start preparing for a place to sleep permanently.
Emperor Zhu found a large number of feng shui warlocks, ran all over the world, and chose many places, but they were all unsatisfactory. Sadly and depressed, he walked around the palace, looked up at Zhong Shan, and his eyes lit up.
"I think Zhongshan is good, what do you think?"
Sure enough, hearing that the emperor who was in the power of life and death seemed to be asking casually, all the feng shui people looked at each other and praised them together, and sure enough, the vision of the Son of Heaven is not comparable to ordinary people such as me.
When the first Qin Shi Huang, he defeated the luck of Zhongshan with gold and iron, and did not want to pass a thousand years.
Emperor Zhu waved his hand, took the mountain as a mausoleum, mobilized hundreds of thousands of migrant workers, lasted for decades, and finally built a filial piety mausoleum, and the sleeping place was done, Emperor Zhu also drooped his old age, passed the throne to the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, and said tremblingly, we must let the old Zhu family inherit it for eternity, and after kicking his legs, he returned to the throne. It is estimated that he did not expect that as soon as Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, his fourth son Zhu Di, who was rebellious in the back of his head, would rebel.
Tie Lingshuang stood far away, beckoned to the guards in front of Xiaoling, and seeing that they did not react, he picked up the iron spear, pointed the tip of the spear at Xiaoling, and waved it a few times in mid-air.
Sure enough, the crime of great disrespect attracted two soldiers in the army, with spears in their hands, walking over with angry faces, and opening their mouths to be convicted.
had already raised the Jinyi Wei's waist card, Tie Lingshuang had a cold face, shook the waist card in front of their faces a few times, and saw that they had become more docile, so he asked coldly,
"This morning, someone was attacked and died next to the filial piety tomb, and whoever found it led the way. ”
Glancing at each other, a Xiaoling guard who was a little bit of a general's belly nodded,
"It was discovered by our patrol team, please come with me, my lordship. ”
The two of them walked along the mountain road for about seven or eight hundred meters, and came to the place where the twenty-third was attacked, Tie Lingshuang raised his eyes and swept it, and saw that there were a few drops of blood under his feet, and there was a large area of blood on the rocks a few meters away.
The big man pointed to the big pool of purple and black blood,
"Just lying there, with blood on his face. ”
Waving his hand, the big man made a military salute with his fists in a knowing way, turned around and strode away.
This place is at the foot of the mountain, Tie Lingshuang turned around and looked back, as long as he walked a few more steps, bypassing a slightly protruding stone, Xiaoling was clear at a glance. With a slight frown, he walked to the few drops of blood, and it seemed that Twenty-Three was ambushed here, and finally died on the pile of rocks.
Seeing a few familiar fragments of bronze smoked balls, shining with a poignant light against the sunset, Tie Lingshuang squatted down and reached out to pick up a piece.
Bronze fragments the size of a fingernail, there are traces of blood on it, there is no trace of depression on the surface, the cracking boundary is quite even, rubbing the edge, Tie Lingshuang looked at Zhongshan from afar, only to see the ridge like a dragon, fighting and snakeing up, on both sides are barren grass and trees, lush forest, blocking the sunset, black holes in the woods.
The master, the strength is mellow, the true qi into the inside, from the inside out, shattering the smoked ball in one fell swoop, thinking that the bone bird inside is also torn apart, fortunately the bone bird has a short-term instinct to gather the soul, but it is also difficult to escape death.
People with such skills probably don't bother to hide and hide, thinking that they have followed them all the way to this point, and when they saw that twenty-three was getting more and more people, they shot and killed.
There should be two shots, the first time knocked down in the back, and the second time killed in front of you, this is not a professional killer, but like a humble gentleman, the prophet will say "I'm going to kill you", and then kill you.
Sven brute, scolded secretly, raised his leg and was about to walk along the path, planning to bypass Zhongshan and go to Linggu Temple to see if he could find a trace. There was a buzzing in her ears, and the bone bird flew around Tie Lingshuang twice, stopping on her shoulder.
Stopping, Tie Lingshuang reached out and picked up the bone bird, and asked softly,
"Any news?"
The little bone bird stood in the palm of Tie Lingshuang's hand, nodded first, gently pecked Tie Lingshuang twice, flew up again, and drew the word "human" in the air. Then it gently fell into Tie Lingshuang's palm.
Frowning, unscrewing the bronze hydrangea, the bone bird flew in lightly, and thoughtfully ordered the smoked ball to remind the owner to close the door.
"Someone to match me? Who's that? Is it surveillance or discipline?"
Looked sideways at the sun that was already a big red cloud, hanging far away in the sky, seeing that it was about to fall under the mountain, Tie Lingshuang was angry in his heart, his face was about to condense into frost, he turned around Zhongshan and walked all the way, ready to quickly investigate, and went back to ask the lackey Zhang Tie, whose idea was this.
Walking all the way along the Zhongshan trail, the sky is getting darker and darker, squinting phoenix eyes along the way and searching carefully, except for some weasels scurrying around, a few phoenix tail butterflies were alarmed, flying chaotically, and did not see anything abnormal.
Looking up at the top of the mountain, there is a dark shore trail, straight to the top of the mountain, from which you can go up to the top of Zhongshan Toutuoling. Shaking his head, now is not the time to go to the top of the mountain to look at the imperial city at his feet and express his body and mind, and was about to continue walking, when he suddenly turned his head and looked at the sky in the distance.
A sound arrow flew straight into the sky with a red tail, particularly dazzling in the already dark sky, a sharp chirp came, the hidden guard arrow signal, red, the demon trace, the earth guards who saw it must gather.
The corners of his mouth sneered, he was a guard, not a heaven and earth Xuanhuang, naturally he didn't need to go, turned around and walked two steps, and turned back suddenly, the location in that direction was Qingliang Mountain, could it be?
Gritting his teeth, anger flashed in his eyes, he carried an iron spear and rushed straight away, regardless of whether there was a road or not, he ran and jumped all the way, and the small animals hiding at the foot of the mountain were running around.
At the foot of Qingliang Mountain, next to the dilapidated small thatched hut, a few figures gathered, Tie Lingshuang ran all the way, and saw Zhang Tie holding a torch from a distance, carefully looking at the big man lying on the ground, it was the beekeeper Wang Long.
Ran to the side, took a deep breath, and was about to look down, when a charming and hoarse chuckle came,
"Xiao Shuang'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, my sister wants to kill you. ”
The root of the tooth is very sour, uncomfortable, unconsciously took two steps back, raised his eyes to look at the person who spoke, emerald green cloud brocade, scattered embroidered with a few roses, plump, round cheeks, a pair of clear big eyes, glowing with a faint gold, the corners of the eyes leisurely charm, staring at himself, a looming majesty, the bridge of the nose is straight, plump and fleshy, the mouth is slightly wide, slightly provoked, like a tigress.
Seeing that she was carrying a moon-like scimitar in her hand, Tie Lingshuang pursed her lips and returned sullenly,
"Tie Lingshuang has seen Lord White Tiger. ”
"Hahaha"
That day, Wei Baihu looked up to the sky and smiled domineeringly, and was about to come up, Zhang Tie, who was squatting on the ground, frowned, stood up, glanced around, and said coldly,
"Rouge, don't make trouble, come with me, Kui Wood Wolf, Kang Jin Long, Dou Mu Hedgehog, you also come. ”
As he spoke, he threw the torch in his hand to Tie Lingshuang, pointed to the corpse on the ground with his chin, and turned to the side.
He pursed his lips, held his torches, and watched a few people walk to the edge of the pond and whisper earnestly. Tie Lingshuang was slightly strange, this tigress is okay, the three groups of Kui Wood Wolf, Kang Jinlong, and Dou Mu Hedgehog can be said to be the top six people in the ground guard, plus although I have never seen a shot, but the fierce tigress, the general demon can escape a trace of scum when he sees it, even if it is blessed by the Buddha.
Seeing Zhang Tie glancing at himself, as if he was guarding against himself from eavesdropping, Tie Lingshuang snorted coldly and looked down at Wang Long, who had turned into a corpse.
The complexion is iron-blue, the eyes are wide, looking at the sky in horror, the mouth is also wide open, there is no blood around it, it is quite strange, is it scared to death?
Rounded the head of the king's dragon, squatted down, stretched out his hand and pressed carefully, there was still a little heat, not long after he died, the skull was not broken, there were no holes, and there was not the slightest trace of blood.
Just as he was about to turn him over, his eyes swept the black snake tattoo on Wang Lung's chest, which was originally a scarlet snake eye the size of a soybean, and it was scorched black.
Approaching the torch, I saw that along the snake's eye, the faint black lines spread throughout the chest, Tie Lingshuang stretched out his fingers and gently pressed the snake's eyes, soft and hard, like jade and stone, and then along the faint black lines, gently pressed, and the inside was gently crisp, as if it was dry and cracked.
"There was an old fairy who helped me open the red eye of the snake on my chest. ”
Thinking of Wang Lung patting his chest proudly, speaking of the old immortal, Tie Lingshuang remembered the blood sword that played the old Taoist by the Qiantang River, and remembered the insect-like mark on his chest, he couldn't help but lower his head again and look at the snake eye carefully.
The length of the rice grains, narrow, suddenly look at it is indeed like a snake's eyes, squint and look at it for a while, see the clues, it is a snake eye, but it is a coiled thin snake, the layers of fine and tight lines, in the firelight, the small scale armor like a hair flashes with a faint light, delicate, with a trace of poisonous breath, it is really a good craft.
Jade slave.
It's a jade slave again, but the mark on Wang Lung's body is much more obvious than that of the blood sword, but it is cleverly hidden, and he didn't even find it, which is really negligent.
Standing up and looking at the small pond, Zhang Tie seemed to be arranging something in a low voice with the white tiger, Tie Lingshuang held the torch, the iron gun in his hand was clenched, and his feet accelerated, sweeping towards the cave he found in the afternoon.
It was still far away, and I saw that I moved over to block the hole and the boulder rolled aside, and the shrunken turtle now rushed out of the hole, Tie Lingshuang accelerated under his feet, turned over and landed next to the boulder, and looked carefully, only to see that the back of the shrunken turtle stone, a circle of slime, has not dried up.
Sniff lightly, the fishy smell is tangy, and look at the slime all over the size, the hole is about the same, and the bucket is thick snakes, or Jiao. The iron spear swept up a stone and smashed it into the hole, and the water was plopped, and it was empty and lonely. I have a gut feeling that this time the things in it are no longer there.
Glancing around, the bone bird on his waist did not move at all, there was no demonic energy, and he kicked the shrunken turtle on the stone, kicked it over, turned it around, and swept back.
Next to the thatched hut, everyone else was gone, only Zhang Tie was alone, holding the handle of the knife, standing beside Wang Lung, seeing the flickering firelight, he turned around and looked at Tie Lingshuang who turned out from behind the stone.
Nodding, Zhang Tie pointed to the corpse on the ground and said softly,
"When the Kang Jinlong group came, the people died here, and there was no demonic energy around, this case is also for you to investigate, your helper should arrive tomorrow. ”
Shaking his head, Tie Lingshuang had a cold face and said coldly,
"I don't need a helper, you can keep it for yourself, and, what is a jade slave?"
Seeing the words, Zhang Tie's brows furrowed, and Tie Lingshuang sneered,
"Don't say it, check it out for yourselves. ”
As he spoke, he threw the torch to the ground, carried the iron gun, and walked along the path outside.
