A few days later, Tang Jianqiu, who was busy and forgot the hour, inadvertently remembered something, and asked Lux what day it was, and Shili replied that Xiaoman.

It was such an answer that made Tang Jianqiu uncertain, and his pupils shrank suddenly after hearing this, because he realized that something bad was wrong.

He remembered the strangeness of Su Jing, as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who was ordered to go to Luzhou Chana Castle during this time period in his previous life.

Although the situation of a miserable victory was successfully resolved, I don't know who the thief was, but he had sinister intentions and let go of his calmness, causing Su Jingyu to be seriously injured.

At that time, Su Jing fell asleep for an unknown amount of time, and almost lost his life, and this time he must not repeat the same mistakes!

He won't let his brother suffer this again!

Thinking of this, Tang Jianqiu rushed to Dali Temple at his fastest speed;

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Dali Temple, two guards stopped him, and Tang Jianqiu naturally did not feel embarrassed.

He knew that these officers and soldiers were also acting under orders, so he took out the exclusive token and showed it to the two officials.

"The envoy of the Fusi of Beizhen begs to meet with Lord Su Jingsu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple."

Seeing that the person who came was Jinyiwei, the two officials changed their faces instantly, and they immediately changed their flattering smiles and said flatteringly: "Please wait outside, the little one will only let Master Su speak." ”

Tang Jianqiu didn't speak, but just watched one of the officers and soldiers run to report.

After a while, he saw the official come to him and put on a respectful face: "The Lord has been waiting for a long time, Lord Su invites you to the hall." ”

"You lead the way."

"Yes!"

Under the leadership of the officials, Tang Jianqiu saw Su Jing in the hall,

Su Jing has always been warm to his friends, and when he saw Tang Jianqiu, he immediately stepped forward to greet him, and arched his hand with hospitality;

"Lord Tang."

Seeing this, Tang Jianqiu returned the same salute and decided to express the concerns in his heart.

"Master Su, I came here to look for you this time."

Tang Jianqiu has always disliked beating around the bush, and even more so in this matter.

"Oh? Lord Tang, please speak. Su Jing didn't think much about it, but just kept a normal heart;

Tang Jianqiu struggled again and again, and then said, "Lord Su, did the emperor send you on a patrol to Luzhou?" ”

"Exactly, I didn't expect Lord Tang to be so well-informed, and he actually knew it so quickly, why? But worry about me? Su Jing saw that Tang Jianqiu was so nervous, so he made a joke.

Tang Jianqiu, as Su Jing's best brother, it is impossible to say that he is not worried, Su Jing is going to be more than auspicious this time!

"Master Su, in the name of the envoy of the Fusi of Beizhen, I applied to go to Luzhou to assist Dali Temple together."

Tang Jianqiu also took out his identity card out of necessity, and he didn't want to threaten his friends with it.

Su Jing was startled at first, and at first thought that he had heard it wrong, but when he saw Tang Jianqiu looking at him with a straight face, he realized that he was not joking with himself.

"This ...... Jianqiu, aren't you embarrassing me? The three law divisions can't interfere with the Beizhen Fusi, where are you doing this to put my Dali Temple! ”

Although Su Jing's official position was very high and above Tang Jianqiu, he was a little embarrassed in this matter.

Even though he is the second-in-command in Dali Temple, the power of Beizhen Fusi is much greater than them.

Tang Jianqiu naturally knew that saying this made Su Jing difficult to accept for a while, but he still said in a good voice:

"I know it may be a little inappropriate for me to do this, but there are some things I have to do, and I hope Lord Su will forgive me."

Su Jing was about to open his mouth to say something, but the person standing in front of him was his best friend, and he just shrunk what he wanted to say into his stomach.

He flicked his sleeves indignantly, and changed his words: "That's it, since the pacification envoy wants to intervene in me, can you stop it?" ”

Under normal circumstances, he doesn't want anyone other than Dali Temple to get involved, and he will cooperate with him unless there is a major case, and Tang Jianqiu is really embarrassed by this.

Seeing that the other party finally relented, Tang Jianqiu calmed down a little, but even so, he still did not completely relax his vigilance.

"Brother Su, be careful when you go this time!"

Hearing this, Su Jing's eyes became more and more weird when he looked at Tang Jianqiu, he looked up and down, and then said:

"Jianqiu, why are you so strange these days? It's not the first time I've been on patrol. ”

“…… If you believe me, be careful. ”

Tang Jianqiu knew that this matter was difficult to explain, and even if he said it, it would be difficult to be convinced, so he could only prevaricate with such vague words.

Su Jing didn't doubt it, so he could only prevaricate first: "Okay!" I haven't seen such a god before, I will pay attention, I still have to report this matter to Dali Siqing, you can go busy. ”

"Okay."

So, the two of them left separately to deal with the important task sent by the imperial court.

However, Tang Jianqiu's year of sewing a weak crown is also the peak of his appearance, and it is inevitable that many girls will be favored.

No, on the way to Luzhou, there were women of different ages who favored him and admired him a lot.

I still remember that in the year of the crown, how many matchmakers were about to break the threshold of the Tang family but did not come to fruition;

However, Tang Jianqiu was wholeheartedly pleased with Shen Hongluan, the daughter of the Shen family, and did not consider the matter of marriage for the time being.

The reason why he didn't go for a long time was that he was not free to do so, as a man, it was not good for him to be alone with other girls, and if it was spread, he was afraid that it would ruin the girl's reputation, and he still had to wait until the time came.

He still thought about dealing with the matter in front of him first, and then went to find Shen Hongluan, the daughter of the Shen family, when he was done;

After a period of time, Tang Jianqiu and Su Jing had successfully led their troops to Luzhou;

At the moment when they saw a kind of officers and soldiers, all the people passing by avoided it, for fear of being implicated.

Now that the hour is still early, and the time has not yet arrived, it is natural to find an inn to eat and rest.

This is also weird, at first when I came to Luzhou, I could still see some people, but the more I went inside, the more I found that something was wrong.

Especially the people who were close to the mountain, but there were very few people who had seen it in the morning, and the doors of the houses were closed, as if they were avoiding something.

Su Jing, who was sitting in the sedan chair, lifted his clothes, looked at the surrounding scenery again and again, and then put his eyes on Tang Jianqiu, who was sitting side by side on horseback;

"Jianqiu, have you heard of local rumors before coming to Luzhou?"

"No, can Brother Su talk to Tang in detail?"

Tang Jianqiu only knows part of the matter, and he really doesn't know the specific details, if he can know all the things in the world, wouldn't it be a god?

Su Jing smiled, "Haha, if that's the case, it's better to be respectful, it is rumored that there is a fortress in this mountain, and every night there will be a woman's cry,

If someone is unfortunate enough to step into it and trigger the mechanism, it can be said that it is a life of nine deaths, and so far I have not seen anyone come out of the ancient castle mechanism alive, but it is just some rumors,

Your Majesty specially sent me to Luzhou to check the authenticity, if there are people trapped in this ancient castle and unable to escape, try to rescue them, but I think the possibility of this matter is still small,

Jianqiu, you don't need to be nervous, this hasn't happened yet, you and I just need to be careful, I remember that you just encountered a strange incident a few days ago, can you tell me more about it? ”

"How can it be another strange case?"

Tang Jianqiu thought to himself, his sword eyebrows lowered, and his eyes also changed at this moment.

Although this is not an uncommon thing, it is a little strange to think about the reason for the twists and turns in this story.

This kind of case may be much easier than the case of convicting the murderer;

Of course, this is not absolute, but I don't know the danger of the mechanism, and if I accidentally fall into it, I am worried that there will be three long and two short.

"Okay, listen to me and you."

So, Tang Jianqiu told Su Jing everything that had happened in Yongle Temple before, and Su Jing was very surprised when he heard it, and his face was full of incredulity.

"So someone is pretending to be a ghost?"

Tang Jianqiu nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Su Jing was very angry when he heard this, and his handsome face became hideous under the excessive anger, and he was upset for the local people.

"It seems that such scum should be punished! It is really a loss of conscience to kill so many innocent people! ”

"Brother Su, don't be angry, this person has been handed over to the Beizhen Fusi for disposal, and he can't be angry with such a despicable villain, but there is one thing Tang doesn't understand, and I hope to solve my doubts.

How could this Dali Temple job go to other places to investigate the case? This really doesn't make sense. ”

This is Tang Jianqiu's incomprehension, in his previous life, he only knew that he went to Luzhou to handle the case, but he didn't hear him talk about the specific matters.

Su Jing just sighed, and he was a little helpless when he thought about it, so he smiled bitterly and simply said the reason:

"This matter should have been handed over to the Criminal Department for handling, but when I went to the court, the people in the court recommended me one by one to be the investigation of Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

I was also confused at the time, this is also the first time I encountered the post of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, I wanted to refuse, but I don't know what the saint thinks, but they were allowed,

There is a way that the holy order is difficult to disobey, as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, I have to agree to come down, just take it as my experience!

Oh, by the way, before leaving, His Majesty also told me that I must deal with the affairs of this fortress, and if there is any dereliction of duty, slack will be severely punished! This time you go to Jianqiu, you have experience in handling cases, and it is relatively not difficult. ”

Even though the two are very good friends, there are some things that still need to be clearly separated in official business.

On weekdays, they could have been more casual, but now that they are acting on orders, they will naturally not be ambiguous in this matter.

"Brother Su laughed, and he will naturally do his best."

The two of them then walked forward, seeing that it was getting late and they didn't see the shopkeeper, and there was no place to stay, so they could only find a mountain village to live in for the time being.

It's just that there is an indescribable weird atmosphere in this mountain village, and the more you go inside, the more infiltrated it becomes, not that there are ghosts and gods here, it's just that this village is so quiet and terrible that you haven't even seen anyone.

It was this strangeness that attracted the attention of all the officers and soldiers, and I don't know if it was an illusion, since they entered this Luzhou, they had a feeling of hair, but they didn't say it.

Tang Jianqiu felt very strange, obviously when he arrived in Youyou, there was not even a little cooking smoke, as if the people in the village had evaporated;

Of course, this is just an exaggeration, and they can naturally see that the courtyard walls of these houses next to the road are high, and the new mud on the walls has not dried, which is obviously just reinforced.

Look at the courtyard gate again, there are so many families with very new paint, no silk and mottled signs, the above can prove that these places are still inhabited, but I don't know why they dare not go out.

"My lord, why is there no sound at all!"

Ah Fei's face was full of doubts, this place was surprisingly quiet so that he was a little unhappy, even weird, could it be some conspiracy?
