Volume 1 Black and White Dream Chapter 20 Seizure
The two waited quietly for a while, there was a noise of footsteps outside the door, a team of guards pushed the door in, and Su Qing got up and was about to salute, but was pressed by the shoulders of the two guards, his hands were clasped behind his back, and he almost fell to his knees.
"We found that you have a major suspicion, and the city lord ordered that you be detained before the investigation is clear, and cooperate well, we will not embarrass you."
Gu Ku stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "Did this adult misunderstand something, just now Captain Liu asked me to wait here, why did I suddenly change my hexagram at this time." β
The guard snorted coldly: "Heh, the city lord's order is higher than that of Captain Liu." Someone came, and they were taken away. β
Su Qing looked at Gu Ku suspiciously, Gu Ku shook his head secretly, let down his guard, and let everyone take the two away.
The guards seemed relieved to see that Gu Ku did not resist.
Shu Qing was taken alone to a small room, where she was tied to a stool with a wooden table in front of her and only a half-open window above the room.
A guard came in, sloppy-looking, with a tuft of beard at the bottom of his mouth, and he looked like a leader.
The man spoke: "The contemptible man's surname is Li, and he is the personal guard who obeys the orders of the city lord, and there are some things that I want the girl to tell the truth." β
It is not uncommon for the city lord to have a personal guard, this kind of guard can be used to protect the city lord and the people in the city, especially in a city like Yanjing City, which is located on the frontier, there are many people, and the central army stationed in the border area can sometimes not deal with some problems in time.
Shu Qing nodded and said, "I don't know what the adults want to ask?" β
Li Huwei said: "Where did the snakes in the girl's house come from? β
Shu Qing was a little nervous, but when he saw this, he immediately felt a lot more relieved, and said: "It was a sudden attack on me last night, and there were a few days ago, but they are all dead things, and I have also told Captain Liu and a small guard under you about this." β
Li Huwei was half-hanging his head, and at this time, a pair of eagle eyes stared directly at Su Qing. There was a burst of hair in Shuqing's heart for no reason.
Li Huwei said: "That...... How do you explain the serpent in your cellar? β
Shu Qing was taken aback, "Giant snake? I never knew there was a giant snake in my house! β
Li Huwei didn't speak, and continued to stare at Shu Qing, as if judging the truth of her words.
"It's true, why don't you let me take a look."
Escort Li slowly spoke: "The snakes in your house are attracted by giant snakes, and it's hard for me not to suspect that you are directing and acting yourself." What do you say about the man who died near your house the other day? β
Su Qing hurriedly said: "It was that person who suddenly visited at night, and I don't know." β
"Oh? Who can prove it? We have asked the surrounding residents, and they do not know how the man died. β
Su Qing was puzzled, "Isn't it due to the red moon?" No...... No, there was a man who shot him with an arrow, saying that he was ordered by the lord of the castle. β
A hint of mockery flashed in Li Huwei's eyes: "Did the girl see how many people?" β
Shu Qing thought for a while and said, "I didn't see it, listen to the sound...... There seems to be only one person. β
Escort Li glanced at Shu Qing meaningfully, and then turned around and left, after saying "The guards in the city have always been accompanied by ten people, and the sound of their armor rubbing against each other cannot make you feel that there is only one person", and then turned to leave.
Su Qing knew that this "little action" was estimated to be when their investigation was over and the case was decided, and the ghost knew when it would be a head. She was completely suspicious.
Su Qing leaned lightly on the back of the chair and constantly relaxed herself to organize her thoughts. Could it be that the cause of death of people who inadvertently travel at night is not because of the "red rain", but because of the snake hiding in the "red rain"? Both Captain Liu and Guard Li suspected her on the grounds of snakes, and Shu Qing dared to conclude that the shopkeeper of the Wang family and Lang Zhong must have been attacked by snakes before they died.
But...... Didn't you say that the bodies of both were gone? Where did they know that? Who killed the weirdo that night?
There is also the cellar of her own home, which she rarely visits, because there are only some dry wine jars in it. The role played was only that he could hide there when he was playing hide and seek with his sister. Since the death of Sister Ah and Master, there has been no one to make wine or laugh with her, and the cellar has been deserted.
Gu Ku waited quietly in a room, this room seemed to have been cleaned up temporarily, the interior was gorgeous, but when you looked closely, it was a little old.
Gu Ku stood up and saluted, "I don't know what can Miss Gu Er meet in person." β
The woman who walked over smiled slightly, waved her hand to let the guards behind her retreat, it was the person who had helped Shuqing in the city a few days ago.
"Master Gu knows why I'm here, but I don't know why you're here?"
Gu Kumian did not change his color and said: "So my friend asked me to take care of Ling Ai, and his family suffered a snake plague, so I came to help." β
Gu Qingyu said: "It's not a secret, I was ordered to come to investigate the Red Moon at the same time, but also to arrest the traitors of the Gu family, ancient, I respect you, don't force me to do it." β
Gu Ku sneered: "You are young, you are so angry, I think that when I was playing with your father, you were still playing with mud!" β
Gu Qingyu took out a talisman with two fingers and threw it in the direction of Gu Ku, the talisman burned out from mid-air, glowing with a burst of golden light, and countless masked people appeared in the room in an instant.
Gu Qingyu moved into the distance, and threw out a few more talismans to start manipulating the masked man, Gu Ku drew out a silver knife to meet the battle, ignoring the attacks of the rest of the people, and rushed straight towards Gu Qingyu. Gu Ku's hand fell, and after the masked man blocking the road turned into black gas, it condensed and formed again to continue to block.
Gu Ku put away the silver knife, and when the masked man gathered towards him, he instantly punched, and the furnishings in the house turned into powder with a "bang", and when the masked man turned into nothing and had not yet re-formed, Gu Ku's body shook and instantly arrived in front of Gu Qingyu.
Gu Qingyu's expression remained unchanged, and he took out a golden talisman and threw it into the air, protecting it with a light screen. The silver knife struck the light screen, bursting with golden light, the pillars in the house broke in response, and the floor above began to tilt, and the guards outside the door heard the sound, but no one dared to step forward.
There were spider web-like cracks on the light screen, Gu Qingyu posted a talisman to strengthen the light screen, and took out a brush with the other hand to write "painting" on the blank talisman.
Gu Ku secretly condensed his internal force, and turned to attack Gu Qingyu's waist with a short body, the light screen was broken by a silver knife, Gu Qingyu finally finished drawing the talisman and scattered it into the air, and all the power in the house was included in the talisman for a while. Taking this opportunity, Gu Qingyu pulled out the soft sword between his wrists and fought with Gu Ku.
Gu Ku was stunned for a few seconds when he saw the soft sword, then got up and retreated, trying to climb out of the window. Gu Qingyu chased after him, and before Gu Ku jumped out of the window, he threw out a talisman, and a barrier stopped Gu Qingyu's steps.
Gu Qingyu was forced to stop, touched his waist, and scolded in a low voice: "This damn old man, stealing something." β
When the guards saw Gu Ku leaving, they came one after another, and Gu Qingyu kicked the wall: "A bunch of waste!" β
Seeing this, everyone stopped one after another, "Don't kick, don't kick." It was too late, and the floor above collapsed, choking Gu Qingyu's face.
Shu Qing looked at the red moon outside the small window, and some burning shards slipped in through the cracks in the closed window. The rope was finally cut by the rusty blade in Shu Qing's hand, and she carefully stood up, moved the table to the wall, and set up the chair as well.
Shu Qing quietly leaned out of the window with half of his body, looked left and right, and saw that the guards didn't know where they went, and were about to jump down. She looked at "Red Rain" and hesitated slightly, then thought about it, forget it, take a gamble! Bet that "red rain" will not cause death.
A loud "boom" came from the floor above, and even the chair was tilted, Shuqing hurriedly stabilized her body, and saw a team of guards rushing up, she hurriedly retracted her body, the sound ...... It can't be ancient!
Su Qing saw a figure flying out of the building again, it was really ancient! Seeing this, she no longer hesitated and jumped down. But Gu Ku flew straight past her, and the formation was transferred in one go.
Shu Qing: "......"
A group of guards found the fleeing Shuqing, and the Shuqing turned around and ran when she saw this, its speed was like a string away from the arrow, picking a narrow place to drill, she was glad in her heart, fortunately, she was poor and ate less on weekdays.
The guards were in hot pursuit, and a whistle sounded, attracting a team in front, and the group in front of them was even more numerous, and pounced on Shuqing.
Su Qing Yuguang skimmed a piece of wood protruding from the eaves, ran hard, and hung himself in the air.
The two teams of guards below couldn't slow down and collided violently, and Shu Qing took the opportunity to fall and went in the opposite direction.
But a tall, armored warrior walked in front of him.
Shu Qing secretly sighed that he was unlucky, and he couldn't escape when he bumped into Captain Liu.
Captain Liu said: "Miss Shu, I won't do anything with you, follow me back." β
Su Qing froze in place, not moving.
Captain Liu sighed and raised the spear in his hand.
A whistle came from the rooftop, and Su Qing reflexively looked there.
Standing in the wind, red clothes like fire.
Captain Liu's face sank, and he quickly moved in front of Su Qing, and a fan fell from above, hitting the spear, and the spear snapped in response.
Shu Qing took advantage of Captain Liu's slight startle, and fled from the side, but the guards were approaching.
Red Guangyao still stood upright, and the corners of his mouth were hooked to look at Su Qing.
Shu Qing was a little frantic and said, "Lord Cangyi, save me!" I'll give you another boatload of pastries! β
Hongguangyao said: "You just jump up." β
Shu Qing jumped to his feet in a hurry, and the fan "snapped" on Captain Liu's face, and Captain Liu had to fight with him.
Red Guangyao chuckled: "If you don't come up again, I'll have to close the fan." β
Shuqing gritted his teeth, ran a few steps and jumped over, grabbed the edge of the eaves with one hand, and kept kicking his legs in mid-air, and finally climbed up.
She panted and ran to Hong Guangyao, Hong Guangyao closed the fan, and Captain Liu jumped up lightly.
The red light gave a fierce push to the green: "Run, run, run!" β
Shu Qing: "......" body is faster than her brain, and she feels like a donkey that is constantly grinding.
Shuqing stumbled over the roof tiles, and ran along the narrow ridge of the roof in his heart.
The red light was flying, and the figure flickered, and then he reached a high place again, and beckoned to Shu Qing: "Come." Then put a fan to stop Captain Liu.
Shu Qing glanced at the height and shouted: "No, it's too high!" β
Hong Guangyao didn't hear it, and said, "I'll withdraw the fan in three seconds." β
"Three-"
Su Qing ran like a rabbit on the ridge of the roof.
"Twoβ"
Shuqing gritted his teeth and sprinted, got up and jumped.
"Oneβ"
