Chapter 24: A Wall of Separation (Part 8)
Nalan Zhe walked leisurely and slowly, thinking at the same time.
The two maids who had just passed by the side obviously had the smell of Zi Zelan, and they had obviously stayed by Zi Zelan's side.
Looking at it this way, it must be near the south gate wing.
Approaching the south gate wing, the smell of purple Zelan became clearer and clearer, and Nalan Zhe followed the smell and stopped in front of a wing.
"It's one of the two!" Naranzhe confirmed, but unfortunately the distance was a little far, or he could use the phantom pupil to penetrate the wall and see the people inside.
Nalan Zhe hesitated, thinking that if he rashly walked into the wing, it would definitely not work, but he couldn't do anything if he stayed outside like this.
What are Qingshan doing to catch Zi Zelan?
It stands to reason that Zi Zelan is the daughter of the Cross City Lord, and in terms of power, it is far more powerful than Qingshan You, and even the Southern Heavenly King, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ghost Island, is under the control of the Cross City Lord.
Even if it's kidnapping for ransom, it seems that you have found the wrong person.
Conspiracy, there must be conspiracy!
Nalan Zhe was thinking about it, when suddenly a Qingshan Mansion guard with a knife walked over.
"Hey, you are not allowed to enter the wing room casually, are you looking for someone?" said the Qingshan Mansion guard in a rough voice, his tone was extremely unkind.
"Uh...... I'm Miss Meng's newly invited illusion teacher.,Came out to hang out.,I don't know if I can't walk around here.,I'm sorry.γ Naranzhe explained kindly.
"Well, it's okay to wander around here, but you are not allowed to enter the wing room without the permission of the guest. After the Qingshan Mansion guards finished speaking, they didn't wait for Nalan Zhe to respond. Walked away alone.
Naranzhe bit his lip, thinking that he had been here for a long time. It must make people suspicious, so it's better to go back first. With the phantom pupil, he could see that there were guards from Qingshan Mansion ambushed in all directions, all staring at him deadly, unable to do anything.
There was no way so he had to turn back first but he couldn t be in too much of a hurry so nalanzhe turned around slowly and walked around at the same time. His hair moved strangely.
Chiyuki is on the move!
Nalan Zhe let Qianxue go into a side room, take a turn in it, and then come back, at this moment he is already a skilled spirit beast master, he doesn't need words, he only needs his mind to drive Qianxue to do things.
Chiyuki came back quickly.
"Whoosh!"
Qianxue bounced on Naranzhe's neck, coiled around, and spat out the letter playfully.
From beginning to end, Chiyuki is invisible. So others can't see it, but Nalan Zhe can naturally see it because he has a phantom pupil.
"Not here. "Nalan Zhe sniffed Qianxue, and there was no smell of purple Zelan.
"Then it must be in another room. Nalan Zhe thought for a moment. I arranged for Qianxue to go on a run again.
This time, Chiyuki came back a little slower.
"That's right!"
Nalan Zhe smelled the scent of Qianxue's body, and his spirits were uplifted, and he was locked up in that room. Sure enough, it's purple Zelan!
After confirming this matter, Naranzhe's steps couldn't help but speed up. I returned to the hut where Aoyama Yume learned gambling.
"You're back so soon?" Aoyama was still in the house, shaking the dice. Practice listening to dice.
"Well, just walk around, there are many places that you won't be allowed to go. Naranzhe sat down and freed himself from the knot that bound his wrists.
"Slowly get used to it, I have already asked someone to arrange a place for you to live, in the south gate wing. Aoyama said casually.
Nalan Zhe was immediately excited when he heard this, and shouted in his heart: "Great!"
In the following time, Nalan Zhe used the phantom pupil to perform a few more hands for Qingshan Meng, and Qingshan Meng saw that his eyes were about to fall, and he greatly admired Nalan Zhe's skill in listening to dice, which was simply amazing.
Nalan Zhe modestly said that in fact, this is nothing, as long as you study it carefully, you will learn it soon, and then taught Qingshan Dream a few nonsense practice methods.
Qingshan Dream was like a treasure, and practiced seriously, Nalan Zhe excused himself to be sleepy and wanted to go back to the room to rest, so Qing Shan Meng arranged for Erniu to take Nalan Zhe to the residence of the South Gate Wing.
I don't know if Lu Dao has confessed to Erniu in Qingshan Meng, but Erniu was much more polite along the way, and asked Nalan Zhe's name almost as much.
"My surname is Lei, and Brother Erniu just calls me Xiao Lei. Nalan Zhe was also polite.
"Hey, just call me Erniu, it seems that Sister Meng is very good to you, if you change someone else, dare to play tricks on Sister Meng like this, you have already been cut by Sister Meng with a thousand knives, and you died so much that you don't even have ashes. But you can live in the south gate wing room where only VIPs can live, it's not easy. Erniu smiled flatteringly.
"Actually, Miss Dream is not so bad, it's just that she has a bad temper and loves to make her temperament. Naranzhe said casually.
"It's here, that's it, I won't go in, call me at any time if there's anything, go out and call 'come here', and there will be a guard coming out, you just say call Erniu over, and they will notify me as quickly as possible." β
"Then thank you Brother Erniu. Naranzhe nodded and walked into the room.
"Great!" Nalan Zhe whispered, the room that Qingshan Meng arranged for him happened to be next door to Zi Zelan.
The distance was just right, and Nalan Zhe could use the phantom pupil to clearly see that there was a girl in the next room, who was tied hand and foot, and was thrown on the bed, as if she was asleep.
What to do?
Naranzhe first checked around the room to make sure no one was peeping in the dark, then walked over to the wall and knocked softly, rhythmically one at a time.
It's a pity that Zi Zelan didn't know whether he fell asleep or was knocked unconscious, and he didn't react at all.
Naranzhe touched his lips with his thumb and came up with a solution.
......
Zi Zelan didn't know how long she had been asleep, she only felt that her face was wet, as if something was licking her face, and when she opened her eyes, she didn't see anything.
But!
It really seemed as if something was licking her face, and now Zi Zelan clearly felt it, and couldn't help but feel creepy.
At this moment, Zi Zelan suddenly saw a ...... coiled in front of her chest A snake!
"Ah!" exclaimed Zi Zelan.
Soon, a guard from the Qingshan Mansion rushed in.
"What's going on?" asked the guard from the Qingshan Mansion.
"Snakes! There are snakes here!" cried Zi Zelan in terror.
"Snake?" The guards of Qingshan Mansion looked around, but found no trace of the snake. "It's so dry here, how can there be snakes?"
"There really are snakes. And it's a pure white snake, white. Pure white!" Zelan was well frightened, and somewhat incoherent.
"White snakes, white snakes are only found in Iceland, how can there be white snakes in the Shuiyun Continent. Miss Zi Zelan, don't scream, I'm out of the city if I have nothing to do. β
"Do you know my name?" Zi Zelan's eyes widened in surprise.
"Of course, I know that Lord Qingshan Yu has confessed, and I want to treat you well. The guards of the Aoyama Mansion replied truthfully.
"Hmph, it turned out to be Qingshan You! Tie my hands and feet, is this what you call a good hospitality? Let me go!" Zi Zelan said a little angrily.
"I'm sorry. Lord Qingshan Yu just confessed that you are hungry, arrange for someone to feed you something, and I can't help you with anything else. After the guards of Qingshan Mansion finished speaking, they didn't wait for Zi Zelan to speak again, closed the door and retreated, and his voice came from outside the door, "When you are hungry, shout, someone will come in." β
"Let go of me. Let go of me, you bastards!"
Zi Zelan scolded twice, but when she saw that there was no reaction outside, she stopped scolding. Twisting desperately, trying to untie the knot by himself, but he couldn't untie it. His hands and feet were tied firmly.
At this time, Zi Zelan suddenly noticed the wall on one side. Rhythmically ringing.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Strange as she jumped out of bed with difficulty. He moved over and put his ear against the wall.
"Alain, don't make a sound, it's me!"
Zi Zelan's eyes widened instantly, although the voice was very faint through the wall, but how could this voice be so familiar?
"Who are youβBrother Zhe!"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Zi Zelan reacted instantly, and the voice on the other side of the wall was undoubtedly Nalan Zhe!
"Yes, it's me, Alain, how did you get caught here. β
"I ...... I don't know what to say, I was going to go to the water and clouds, as soon as I got out of the city, the carriage jolted a few times, and then I smelled something fragrant, and I was unconscious, and when I woke up, it was here, hey, why did you get caught here. β
"I wasn't caught. Let's not talk about it yet, I want to figure out how I can get you out of the city. Don't worry, there's a chair next to you, sit down first, I'll knock on the wall if there's something. β
"It's good. Zi Zelan sat down obediently, and then was instantly stunned, with an incredulous expression, "Hey, how do you know that there is a chair next to me?"
"Shhh, don't make a sound, you'd better get someone something to eat, eat first, save some strength, I'm trying to figure it out." β
"It's so good, but I'm so scared, there's a snake in this house!" Zi Zelan said this, and couldn't help but get a little nervous again, thinking that he was tied hand and foot, in case the snake came out again and bit himself...... Zi Zelan didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Don't be afraid, that snake is my spirit beast species, don't bite, you have to promise not to call, I'll tell it to come out to show you. β
"Okay, but stay away from me. β
As soon as Zi Zelan's words fell, something suddenly appeared out of thin air not far away...... Sure enough, it was the same snake just now, but it was no longer pure white, but purple!
Did I just read the wrong color? Zi Zelan was thinking about it, when suddenly she saw the snake change from purple to blue again!
It's amazing!
Zi Zelan forgot to be afraid, and wished that the snake would be closer to him so that he could see clearly.
At this time, the blue turned cyan again, and then the cyan gradually faded, and almost instantly, the snake disappeared out of thin air.
So Zi Zelan understood.
Because among all the spirit beast species, there is an animal that has this strange stealth ability.
And there is only one.
- Nothing!
"Hey, I can't imagine that you still have Huawu, where did you get it?" Zi Zelan couldn't help but ask.
"Now is not the time to say this, don't make a noise, someone from outside has come in, pretend to be natural, cry, and ask them to let you go. β
"How do you know there's someone in the roadβ"
Zi Zelan hadn't said the word "coming" yet, and sure enough, someone knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock!"
