Chapter 513: The Queen Appears
Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the light grew wider and wider, and it seemed that it was the exit of the labyrinth.
They walked a little further, and saw several figures in the light, and they were coming in this direction.
The first person to come over was carrying a lamp, his face was dark, and he could clearly identify it as an ancient Mongolian person, and the one who followed him was also an ancient Mongolian person.
Walking in front of and behind the protection of several ancient Mongolian people was a very tall and mighty leopard-headed man.
The leopard's head, as if adorned with diamonds, was shining all the time. The leopard's head was obviously much taller than the head of those Gumeng people.
Bai Lang and Qiu Laohu hurriedly hid in a fork in the road next to them.
The ancient Mongolian people escorted the senior monk as they passed in front of them, and they didn't seem to notice it at all. When the shadows of the senior monk and others were completely hidden, they walked out of the fork in the road and walked to the stone cave door where the chief monk and others came out, and behold, the door was closed.
They pushed a little harder, and the door opened again. The two of them stepped inside with great caution and couldn't help but be taken aback.
It is an extremely upscale room, and all the equipment is silver, including tables, chairs, large vases, etc. In addition, there is a bed, which is made of polished marble, which is as bright as a mirror.
To their greatest amazement, there was a woman standing quietly in the room.
"Yes, she must be the yellow queen!" Bai Lang secretly guessed.
When the queen saw them, she turned pale with astonishment. At first, she thought it was the senior monk who had returned, but when she looked closely, it turned out to be two very strange men, and she was so frightened that she immediately fainted on the silver chair.
The two of them were also very surprised when they saw it. Bai Lang took a few steps forward, and was just about to explain to her about the hasty invasion of her room, when the queen woke up, and she asked:
"You...... Who are you...... Northland ......"
She speaks Northern Chinese and has an extremely pleasant Dongzhou accent. When they heard her ask, they were also so surprised that they couldn't answer for a while.
"Are you...... Who?" Bai Lang asked.
"I'm from the North."
They heard that the queen claimed to be a northerner, as if in a dream.
"How can a woman from the north be a king here?"
"This is a conspiracy of the great monks. He was eager to ascend to the throne, but if he became king, not only would the men of the previous kings rebel against him, but the people would not agree. So he made me the puppet king, and he held the real power. ”
"Who are you? Why do you want to act as a puppet of the front desk of the great monk?"
"I am a citizen of Dongzhou. I was kidnapped in Dongzhou, and the criminals used a special anesthetic, and I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was already on the express train. At that time, I was very hopeful that I would have slipped away, but the criminals had placed me in a state-class carriage, the doors and windows were tightly closed, and I had to obey them. And then it was sent here again. ”
"Do you know who is escorting you?"
"One Eastern European and three Gumon. It was only later that I realized that the Eastern European man was a senior monk, and that he was in disguise. ”
"Why did they kidnap you? If they were to make you king, they wouldn't have had to put so much effort into it. Isn't it more convenient to find one from Egypt or Greece where there are many Caucasian women?"
"The senior monk only told me later that he was trying to get one of my Buddhist scriptures."
"What? Sutra?...... What kind of sutra is it?"
"An old Buddhist sutra with a black sheepskin cover."
When Bai Lang heard this, he was so shocked that he almost fainted.
"So, that is the Buddhist scripture that I got from Mrs. Gu Su?"
"Strange thing, where did you know it was ......"
"Yes, you are Shi Lili, Dr. Zhong's wife!" Shirarou shouted like a madman.
"How do you know in such detail? Who are you?" The queen asked, shocked.
"You don't have to ask my name. There is one thing I must inform you, your daughter is now in a cell beneath this palace. However, I don't know exactly where she is imprisoned. ”
"My daughter? Zhong Qian? She was ......"
After hearing this unexpected news, the queen fainted again.
Bai Lang and Qiu Laohu immediately started first aid, and Shi Lili quickly woke up. She begged them earnestly to go and rescue Zhong Qian immediately.
"But we don't know exactly where Zhong Qian is imprisoned."
"I know. There is a stone prison for women, just below. Two days ago, a woman who had stolen something had been sent to the stone prison by the senior monk. I think that woman must be Zhong Qian. If I had learned that she was my daughter, I would have told him to let her go. But he said it was an ancient Mongolian woman. ”
"Does your command work for him?"
"Although I am a queen in name only, on the surface, he obeys my orders. Otherwise, many of the Gumengs would have risen up against him. Many of these ancient Mongols were loyal subordinates of previous kings, and they still hate him. The thing that the great monks and officials feared the most was the rebellion of the ancient Mongolian people, so in addition to suppressing them as much as possible, they should also be careful at all times to try not to make them rebellious.
"Just now, he came to me to report to me about the damage caused by the earthquake and the fire on the mountain. This is because, in this country, from ancient times to the present, all domestic affairs, the high monks and officials must immediately report to the king and ask for the king's will. In other words, if the great monk went to do something alone, the ancient Mongolian people would rise up and oppose it. ”
"Oh, I just came to report."
"Yes. I know the situation of the earthquake very well. I am very disturbed, and the loss of the people this time must be very large. However, I didn't know about the fire on the mountain until he said it. According to his own words, the wildfire was extinguished by a thunderstorm, and I was relieved a little. You two burst into my room and startled me. Now, please go and rescue Zhong Qian immediately......"
Shi Lili hurriedly took off the white royal robe, put on black clothes again, and walked in front to guide them.
She took a bronze lamp and led them across the door from which they had entered.
By the dim light, they came to a small stone door, which was wide open. Shi Lili was the first to walk in, and the two of them followed. It was a very small stone prison, with a kettle and food in the corner, but there was no Zhong Qian here.
"Not here!"
Shi Lili said, her face turned pale.
"That must have been in some other stone prison......
"No way, there is no other stone prison...... Perhaps, imprisoned in that little house.
As she was talking, Shi Lili suddenly saw something in the corner of the wall, and immediately walked over and picked it up.
