The tiger roars in the mountains and forests, and the beasts rise and move.

There were still hours before dawn, and at the darkest and quietest time of the day, the whole forest was stirred by the roar of the tiger, full of unknown dangers.

He He was awakened, got up and saw Yunqi facing a certain direction, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The voice traveled far away, actually some distance away from them, Yun Qi narrowed his peach blossom eyes, and said uncertainly: "Like a beast tide?" ”

He He walked next to him, and the black eyes in the distance were out of reach, and he said to himself: "It's strange." ”

"What's strange?" Yunqi turned his head.

He He frowned slightly, "In the past, I only dared to collect medicine on the periphery of the forest, because there are usually big beasts inside, but I haven't seen any animals in the past year, and even the hunters in the village say that they can't catch good prey." ”

She looked up as hard as she could, but only the forest covered the sky and the sun, and the darkness condensed there, "Why did they all run out again all of a sudden?" ”

The ground trembled, and the trees shook with it.

They couldn't see it, but they could feel the huge herd of beasts roaring past with the power of the withering and decaying, and the earth was terrified.

"That direction......" Yun Qi flipped his wrist, grabbed the jade bone fan behind his back, and his handsome face was slightly solemn, "Long Ling." ”

—

At the same time, Zi Sangjin felt more deeply than Yunqi and He He, and he personally experienced the shocking scene when a herd of beasts attacked.

Rushing like the wind, the ground shook the mountains, and the huge beast herd rampaged like crazy, and the big trees hugged by several people were directly crooked, stepping on the dusty sky, and the wind shook wildly, almost suffocating people.

Zi Sangjin lay down in the pit, waited for this group of beasts to run away and wiped his face, his hands were full of dust, and his right hand waved in mid-air, "Where did the beasts come from?" ”

Spoon Shui jumped to a high place, searched everywhere, and met the eyes of a man on the other side of the herd, who had a vicious and sharp gaze, and his fierce face slowly pulled a smile, and turned and ran.

jumped down and said to Zi Sangjin: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Redbeard is on the other side, he must have chased the beasts and took the opportunity to escape." ”

Zi Sangjin clenched his fist and pounded it in the air, his face was full of chagrin, and after thinking about it again, he felt that it was wrong, "When did so many beasts come to the forest?" "It just so happened that Redbeard got together.

Spoon Shui also didn't understand, "When my subordinates waited in the forest for the past few days, they never encountered any wild beasts. ”

"Blockade Diqiu County, strictly guard all exits, and be sure to capture Redbeard. Also, check what happened to this beast tide. ”

Spoon Shui received the order, and the other leader ran back and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's not good, look at the direction of the beast herd, it's Longling!" ”

The next day, Lu Anran got up and found that Guanyue and Mo Yan were not in the mansion.

Qiu Cicada brought a basin of water to wash her, and when she saw that her face was not good, she hurriedly asked, "Is Miss sick?" ”

Lu Anran washed her hands and wiped her face with a handkerchief, she woke up several times last night, shuttling through all kinds of bizarre dreams in the middle, and she didn't remember anything when she woke up, but her head was dizzy.

Qiu Chan put breakfast on the table, "I'll ask my father to ask a doctor to come and show the young lady when I go back." ”

"No, I'll just rest." Several times during this period, I looked at the opposite room from the window, and the window and door were closed, not like the owner had returned.

After eating a meal, she remembered something, and took out from the drawer the Jinpa she had used to wrap things last night.

Open and there is only some crushed mud inside.

"Autumn cicadas." Lu Anran called the little girl who was cleaning up the table, "Have you ever seen such mud?" ”

Qiu Cicada put the dishes and chopsticks on the tray, leaned over to look at it, and said with a smile: "Isn't this the red clay of Monkey Mountain, there is also a large patch of azaleas there, and I have picked it before." ”

Lu Anran raised his eyes: "Is it only that piece of soil near that there will be?" ”

"That's right, the old people on our side all said that the mountain was overturned by the Taishang Laojun alchemy furnace, and the leaking flames smashed on the Monkey Mountain, so the soil was burned red, and it turned into red soil in the future."

Lu Anran folded the veil again, and Qiu Cicada packed up and went out, only then did he remember and ask, "Miss, did you go to Monkey Mountain last night?" It's just when the azaleas are blooming, did the lady see it? ”

"Nope." I don't know if the answer is the first or second question.

Qiu Chan doesn't hide things in her heart, and she won't grasp the problem of digging roots, which is completely different from Chunmiao, in the end, she is a girl taught by Yunwangfu, she looks very arrogant, but she actually guards her proportions tightly.

The door was open, and the early summer wind was still a little cool in the morning, blowing the fragrance of roses in the courtyard, and it was far away and quiet.

Lu Anran closed the drawer, thinking about whether she and Wufang should go to Monkey Mountain or wait for Yunqi to come back and then discuss, as well as about the Zhou family's corpse stored in Yizhuang, she still has something to discuss with Yunqi to negotiate with the county office.

Just thinking about this, a green shadow flashed, and there was already an additional figure opposite her.

Lu Taotao squatted on the chair, tilted his head, squeezed his eyes, and said mysteriously: "Little sister, something is wrong." ”

Lu Anran understands Lu Taotao's character of always coming and going in the clouds and rain, and he doesn't care much about her words.

"Before dawn today, a large group of beasts rushed into Longling and overturned the entire dojo, haha." Lu Taotao clapped his hands happily, "I just went to see it, and the platform is half collapsed, and the ground is full of mourning and screaming stinky Taoists." ”

Lu Anran's eyes shrank slightly, and he stood up suddenly, "Really? ”

"Cut, I don't believe it."

No wonder Guanyue and Mo Yan went out early in the morning, she thought that the two of them were going to find Yunqi.

No, Yunqi is also in the mountains.

At this moment, Qiu Cicada hurriedly ran over, "Alas, Miss, the doctors of the entire county are out of the city, I heard that something happened in Longling!" ”

Although Lu Anran said no, Qiu Cicada still went to the medicine hall, and after running a few in a row, he ran out of sight, and only after asking in confusion did he know.

"Not only that, but all the disciples of Jixia Palace who are studying medicine have also called out."

Lu Taotao took a pastry to eat from the plate on the table, and pouted disdainfully: "What else do you say about the real people of the earth immortals, even a few beasts can't deal with it, pretending to be thunderstruck, look, even God can't look past it." ”

"Miss, where are you going?" The autumn cicada chased after Lu An.

Lu Anran stopped, "Let Zhongbo set a carriage and park at the side door, and I'll go to Longling to have a look." ”

Qiu Cicada blinked: "But, Miss, you're not a doctor." ”

"I'm going." A pair of eyes are clear and sharp, pure black and deep, and when looking at people in silence, there is an indescribable momentum.

Qiu Cicada's heart sank, "I, I'll go right away." ”

Lu Anran lowered his eyes and walked to the side door, his steps were hurried, the corners of his skirt kept flying, and there was only one thought in his heart-

Could Yunqi have encountered a beast riot so coincidentally?

The carriage drove out of the side door on the way out of the city, and as soon as she bent down to get in, Lu Taotao jumped up on her hind feet, "Hey, is the young lady going to the scene to pick up the corpse?" ”

Lu Anran pursed his lips, raised his eyelids and glanced at her.

Lu Taotao covered his heart, "Hey, don't look at people like this, people are afraid." ”

"Let's go." Lu Anran whispered to the coachman.

—

At the other end of the county, Yunqi took He He and Xunqing and just came in from the city gate.

The common people in the city still live their lives, except for a few chats in their spare time, they know very little, but they heard that the Longling Dojo was attacked by fierce beasts, and many people were injured.

"Even Dongyue Zhenren is not working?" A certain person who witnessed Zhang Tianshi being skinned sighed.

Others said:

"It was Dongyue Zhenren who was able to pinch and calculate, and saw this disaster, so he put the dojo there and took this disaster for our Diqiu people, otherwise where would the beast herd attack be bad, but it was aimed at the dojo?"

"It just shows that the Tao is boundless, eliminating disasters and solving difficulties."

"Yes, yes, Dongyue Zhenren sacrifices himself, it is true cultivation, true compassion."

……

Yunqi walked over and listened, smiled and didn't speak, his peach blossom eyes moved slightly, and a figure flashed quickly under his eyes.

"Childe, I heard that there were quite a few people injured in the scene." He He led Xun Qing and said with a look of pity.

Yun Qi turned his head casually, and said without knowing whether it was true or not: "The Emperor Qiu Dao Fa is originally for the purpose of removing disasters and relieving misfortunes, and this difficulty is written in the merit book and counted as the creation of their cultivators. ”

Upstairs, the spoon flashed back into the room, and reported: "The subordinates have listened to it, and the bad remarks among the people have gradually been eliminated, and everyone now thinks that the beasts originally attacked the city, and Dongyue Zhenren sacrificed his life to solve the problem for Diqiu." ”

Zi Sangjin exhaled lightly, the expression on his face was still not very good, "You pay close attention, if there is a heresy, be sure to uproot it." ”

As the crown prince, no one knows better than him the influence of folk speech on people and things, but he knows better how to keep public opinion in his hands.

Therefore, as soon as something happened, Sang Jin asked Spoon Water to arrange people to pretend to be the people, and spread the deeds of Dongyue Zhenren who sacrificed himself for others everywhere.

"Yes." Spoon nodded in response, and walked out of the room again.

Hua married in the back and said worriedly: "Your Highness, it's a pity that you didn't catch the red beard this time." "It fell short.

Zi Sangjin held the teacup in his hand, and the tea in it shook lightly, "It's not a problem with the red beard anymore, the first consideration of this palace now may be how to inherit the thunderous wrath of my father." ”

Hua Marriage's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked at the young man sitting straight in front of her with a cold face, trying to maintain her composure, but not as weak as the crown, revealing unbearable sadness in her heart.

In the eyes of others, the prince is in a high position, the pride of the sky, but only close people understand how difficult it is for the prince, walking step by step is like stepping on the tip of a knife, and if he is not careful, he will be crushed.

The status of the crown prince is not so much a gift as a bondage.

But Hua Marry can't say anything, because of her identity, and because the five-year-old prince in her memory told her with a tearful stubborn look: "Hua Marry, this palace must be strong, and no one can be bullied or humiliated when the time comes." ”

The young prince became one with the one in front of him, he seemed to sigh and said softly: "Flower marriage, this palace can't do anything well." ”

Hua Marriage's eyes were sour, she turned her head, and choked up: "No matter what Your Highness does, the slave maid and spoon water will accompany you." ”

The negativity spread in the room here, and the three of them just walked to the front of a medicine hall downstairs, and were just about to pass through the gate, and with a bang, a person was pushed down in front of them.
