Chapter 266: Bamboo Branches Crossing the Sea

Li Zhixian heard Qiao Lin say that he went back to find his sister to find a way, and suddenly his face changed, remembering the scene when he saw the eldest princess the day before yesterday, when she showed surprise on her face, and Qiao Lin spoke in a serious tone, as if she was accusatory, could it be ...... Lee Ji-hyun shook his head and rushed to the harbor with everyone.

Seeing that the sun was in the west and everyone arrived at the harbor, Li Zhixian took the lead in jumping off the horse, and the group dismounted one after another and walked on the reins. Li Zhixian asked, "Abbot, our helper entered the house of the sweeping monk, and there was no sound at all?" Hemmer thought for a moment and replied: "At that time, Xiao Shami said to Wang Shaoxia that the sweeper had indeed picked up a few pairs of shoes and asked him to go in to identify them...... Strange, with Wang Shaoxia's martial arts, who can restrain him quietly? ”

Li Zhixian is inconvenient to say that Wang Hou's internal strength has been lost, but he also feels very strange: even if Brother Wang has no internal strength, his hearing and reaction are still there, how can he not have time to resist? He is invincible, and it is impossible for the other party to poison him, what happened?

The master of the door asked, "Did Wang Shaoxia offend someone?" "We have only been on Ceylon for a short time, and we have been on the ship all the time, that is, the day before yesterday to attend a wedding banquet, and we hurried back, who else will do it except Chen Xiong?" Zhuang Zhaoxue asked rhetorically.

Li Zhixian said: "Just now Princess Jolene said that I went back to discuss a way with her sister, and I suddenly thought that it could be a game set up by her sister, the day before yesterday, except for Tie Salo, she was the only one who talked to us...... But I thought about it that she didn't need to do this, if she really did it, she wouldn't let Jolene accompany us, and besides, the whole thing today, Jolene didn't make people suspicious. ”

Zhuang Zhaoxue seemed to think of something, and said to herself: "Could it be that the prince of Guli arranged someone to do it?" The four members of the Ruthless Gang all sighed, but they didn't think about it, Liu Hanyan said angrily: "There is this possibility, the nerd told me, and I also heard the weird prince say that after arriving in their weird country, he sent someone to arrest the nerd, and he must have done it in advance." ”

Zhou Qingzhu asked strangely, "Isn't the strange prince on Zheng Zongbing's treasure ship?" How does he move his hands? Liu Hanyan snorted coldly: "His entourage is forty or fifty people, how do you know that he didn't arrange people to our ship?" After seeing Princess Jolene with us every day, no matter how easy the nerds are, they can guess. ”

"Tang Jing has a detailed roster, we can check whether there are any envoys who are transferred to our ship with him, and if not, then it can be ruled out that it was not the work of the strange prince; If so, check their whereabouts again in the past two days. After a pause, Li Zhixian said again, "What is certain now is that the disappearance of the gang leader is directly related to Foguang Temple, so I proposed to Tie Salo that within fifteen days, he must give an explanation, although he did not answer, but according to common sense, if he can't do it, he will definitely shirk it." Because of this, I guess that the helper will not be in danger for the time being, no matter what, let Tang Jing put pressure on them again tomorrow. ”

Liu Hanyan said hatefully: "I'll go to the fairy and ask her to bring the flower mist, and we will level the Foguang Temple tonight." Zhuang Zhaoxue persuaded: "It's not time to turn our faces yet, if we are in a hurry to use force, if Wang Gongzi really wants to do it in their hands, it will bring him greater danger." ”

It's really a rat trap, so I can only wait for the news from Tang Jing's side. As a result, in the evening of the next day, Tang Jing rushed to the harbor with more than a dozen entourages, Liu Hanyan and the others were frowning, and when they saw Tang Jing coming in, they hurriedly asked, "Commander, how is it?" ”

Tang Jing's expression was solemn, and he told everyone what he learned today. It turned out that Tang Jing was also surprised when he received Qiao Lin's message last night, and informed the king of Ceylon in time. This morning, the king sent the Minister of General Affairs and Communications to lead people to the Holy Foot Mountain together with Tang Jing, only to find that Tiesaro was also missing! Tang Jing suddenly soaked his whole body in cold sweat, as the saying goes, "If you can run, a monk can't run the temple", he called all the elders in the temple to one place, and after asking, he knew that Tiesaro liked to travel, and when he was not in the temple, the second elder would be in charge of affairs; So he asked the second elder, but the second elder couldn't answer.

Later, he searched Tessaro's room, and found only a note from the room, on which a few words were written in Chinese characters: "Twenty-five days back, don't read it."

Tang Jing knew that the situation was serious, it seemed that Tie Salo was so frightened that he hid after Wang Hou was kidnapped, today is August 11, and in another twenty-five days it will be the sixth day of September, he just wants to avoid the limelight, and wait for the fleet to leave before coming back, and it is difficult to say whether he can come back on the 25th. In a hurry, Tang Jing hurriedly went down the mountain and rushed here to explain the situation to everyone.

After listening to Tang Jing's account, everyone was even more at a loss, and Liu Hanyan said angrily: "I said yesterday, step on his Foguang Temple and see how long that old monk can hide?" "Sister Liu, even if we set foot in Foguang Temple, we can't solve the problem." Li Zhixian spoke comfortingly, looked at Tang Jing, and asked, "Commander, can you bring the note?" Can you give me a look? ”

Tang Jing took out the note from his pocket, Li Zhixian took it, looked at it for a long time, and said: "This handwriting is different from the handwriting last time in Sumatra, probably not Chen Xiong's doing." Abbot Haimer said that when he met Tiesaro, he didn't have an umbrella on a rainy day, and his whole body was still not wet, which shows that he has good martial arts, if this word is really left by him, maybe he is looking for a helper. The 25th may also refer to the 25th of August, which is in line with the half-month period we said before. ”

Everyone felt that it made sense, so they decided to wait patiently for half a month, and at the same time, Tang Jing arranged for 2,000 people to search for them in Ceylon, and sent secret agents to monitor every move of Foguang Temple.

Liu Hanyan and the others later learned from Tang Jing that there was no envoy from the Guli Kingdom in the list of envoys on the "Tianzhu", so it can be inferred that the strange prince was really thrown away by Princess Qiao Lin, and went to Bang Ge with Zheng He with his entourage, and Wang Hou's disappearance should have nothing to do with the strange prince. Remembering what Tesaro said, "This calamity is a mixed blessing for him, it depends on whether he can understand what I said earlier, and if he can, it will be a good thing for him, otherwise it will be ......" Several people were anxious.

☆☆☆☆☆ Wang Hou heard the little novice say: "Donor, the sweeper said that he picked up a few pairs of shoes, and he asked you to go in and identify them." With a joy in his heart, he opened the curtain and walked into the house, and saw a red-clothed monk with his back to him, squatting on the ground and fiddling with a pile of shabby things. Hearing someone coming in, the red-robed monk didn't raise his head.

Because of the language barrier, Wang Hou did not ask, but deliberately put his steps down, walked over, and was about to lean down to rummage through his shoes, when he suddenly saw the hand of the red-clothed monk raised upward, Wang Hou found that something was wrong, how could he have no internal strength, the movement was too slow, and he couldn't dodge at all, and before he could make a sound, he was hit by the other party on the right side of the ear acupoint on the right side of the face, and immediately fainted.

The red-clothed monk grabbed Wang Hou, his body shook, and he had already rushed out of the open back window, but instead of jumping straight to the wall five zhang away, he folded to the left, swept forward quickly on the roof, quietly returned to the abbot's room, and jumped in through the open back window. When he got to the inner room, he hid Wang Hou in the closet, covered the cabinet door, leaving only a gap, then clapped his hands, removed the strip of cloth covering his face, walked to the outer room as if nothing happened, and sat down on a chair.

This person was none other than Tesaro, who had already agreed with the little novice in advance, and when he went to the room to get boiling water, he hid Wang Hou's shoes casually. When Wang Hou and the five took their leave, Tie Salo jumped out of the back window, entered the room of the sweeping monk, knocked him unconscious, and threw him into the corner. At this time, Wang Hou didn't see his shoes, so he was stunned for a while, and then asked Xiao Shami, delaying for a while. It wasn't until Wang Hou entered the sweeping monk's room that Tie Salo was unprepared, sealed the key points, and took him back to his inner room to hide it.

The effort was not great, and under the arrangement of several people over there, the abbot of Yunxiang came in again and said that Wang Hou had been kidnapped, and Tie Salo pretended to be surprised, and then pretended to search outside the wall with everyone.

Later, the monks turned the temple up and down, except for finding that the sweeping monk was knocked unconscious in the corner, they did not find anything abnormal, and they would not enter the abbot's inner room to search. How could Liu Hanyan and Li Zhixian think of this? After some questioning, nothing came of it. The four of Abbot Haimer, Abbot Yunxiang, Lord Lemen, and Qiao Lin didn't even suspect Tie Saluo, and naturally they wouldn't have thought that Xiao Shami had taken advantage of the gap between going out to get water and hid Wang Hou's shoes.

When it was dark, Tie Salo left a note, and under the cover of night, he carried Wang Hou over the wall and went straight to the northeast. Ceylon was originally an island country, surrounded by water, and surrounded by many small islands, about an hour later, Tesaro arrived at the seashore, it was the tenth day of the eighth month, the moon was bright, I saw him break two arm-thick bamboo branches tied to his feet, jumped into the water, driven by internal forces, after galloping seven or eight miles on the sea surface, came to a small island.

It is said to be a small island, but it is actually slightly larger than Ziwei Island where Wang Qiaodong is located, with a radius of two miles, dense forests, and bursts of fragrance. Tesaro seemed to be familiar with the area, slowing his pace and walking through the woods, avoiding the traps he had set up. Walking out of about a mile, under the moonlight, you can see a palace built in front of you, in front of the palace is a courtyard, a high wall, through the gate you can see the lights inside.

When they arrived at the gate, the voice of the woman inside asked, "Who is it?" Tiesaro answered: "Ruilian, open the door." The iron door creaked open, and two young women came out of it, bowed and saluted, and asked, "Why did the Dharma Protector come so late?" Tie Salo snorted and responded: "This is the person of the sect master, I just sealed his acupoint, and he will not wake up until three poles on the sun tomorrow, this son has no martial arts, but he has to be careful...... The suzerain is not there? ”

The two women replied in unison, "Back to the Dharma Protector, the sect master is not here." Tie Salo hummed again, threw Wang Hou to the two, turned to the right, and left only one sentence: "I will retreat in the Emerald Blue Cave for a few days, if it is not for the sect master to call me, don't come to disturb." The two women answered, carried Wang Hou into the courtyard, and closed the iron door again.
