Chapter 224: The wolves descend the mountain
Three days later.
A black sedan drove steadily on the empty road, its wheels running over the ground and splashing a small layer of white water.
At night, the streets are quiet and silent, with a soft glow from the faint street lamps. Although the New Year has passed for more than half a month, the temperature has not changed much for many days, and it has rained, wet and cold in the last two days, and it is only 11 o'clock in the evening when there is no one on the street.
The cold wind of drizzle sleet blows, and the leaves on both sides of the street sway and rustle, and the leaves hang with crystal droplets of water and shimmer faintly.
The black car drove to the door of Xuanyi Hall and stopped next to the curb.
The two girls in the car were Wen Qiqi who was driving and Wu Luoyang who was sitting in the back seat.
A few days ago, Master Wu Leiting observed the sky at night and found that there were signs of starfall in the east, so it was speculated that the next star Libra should be about to appear in the near future.
For three consecutive days, Wu Luoyang went to the research institute for internship and work during the day, and went to the library with Wen Qiqi at night to check the materials, looking for information about the Libra star soul from those who had intersections with Zhan Yunye.
"Thank you for sending me back."
Wu Luoyang closed the laptop, reached out and picked up the laptop backpack next to him and stuffed it in, and landed one hand on the door handle, ready to push the car door and get out of the car.
"Wu Luoyang."
Wen Qiqi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, suddenly stopped her.
Wu Luoyang turned his head sideways and looked at her: "What's wrong?" Anything else? β
Wen Qiqi raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes fell to the rearview mirror in the car, looked at the smiling face at the corner of his mouth, and confirmed again: "I am really the reincarnation of Princess Changning?" β
Regarding this question, Wen Qiqi had already asked it once when he was checking materials in the library, and Wu Luoyang had also told her.
Seeing Wen Qiqi ask again, Wu Luoyang's dark eyes moved, and he replied to her with a smile: "It seems that no matter how much I say, you may not believe it." This way, the next time you see the Anemone Princess, you can verify it with her in person. β
Princess Anemone is the mother of Princess Changning, so she won't recognize her daughter indiscriminately.
According to historical records, the old emperor and the princess of Haikui, as well as Zhan Yunye and others all started from the national teacher. Wen Qiqi couldn't help but say more: "Someone once told me that you are the powerful and powerful national teacher recorded in the history books of that life. β
The simple statements and records of the coup d'Γ©tat written by later generations are all based on the conclusion that the East Palace and the national teacher joined forces to promote the coup d'Γ©tat in the court, and more speculation points to the fact that in order to consolidate the power in his hands, the national teacher did not hesitate to assist the queen to get rid of the princess of the sea anemone and the god of war Zhan Yunye, who helped the old emperor fight the world together.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Wu Luoyang guessed the person, and asked instead of answering: "The person who told you this is Hongyan, right?" β
"Yes."
Seeing Wen Qiqi smiled lightly, he nodded truthfully.
Wu Luoyang didn't know if it would bring disaster to the country, but she was sure that the old emperor's death had nothing to do with the national teacher.
Since he is a national teacher, he must be an important adviser to the emperor, responsible for giving advice to the country and guiding the monarch to govern the country, so it is naturally impossible to have two thoughts about the monarch.
Regarding what the national teacher did, Wu Luoyang could not give many answers.
The only thing that is certain is that all the people involved in that coup d'Γ©tat are inseparable from the Tree God Prayer and the Infinite Abyss.
In recent days, Wu Luoyang and Wen Qiqi have consulted a large number of relevant historical records, which can also corroborate this point.
How future generations write about the national teacher is based on speculation, Wu Luoyang sighed lightly, "Now that they have gathered in this life to reappear, they must want the truth." β
When the twelve star souls are collected and the seal is unlocked, the truth will finally be revealed to the world.
Shaking hands at the steering wheel, Wen Qiqi was a little worried: "Wu Luoyang, if the facts are really as stated in the historical records, then what are you going to do?" β
Well?
Wu Luoyang was stunned.
She hadn't thought about it.
While the two were talking, a figure walked out of the door of Xuanyi Hall.
Wu Luoyang and Wen Qiqi turned their heads at the same time, only to see a man holding a big black umbrella, lowering the edge to resist the wind and rain, they couldn't see each other's faces, they could only see him wearing a long black tunic coat, unhurriedly passing by the side of the car.
The man took a few steps forward and stopped suddenly.
The position of the edge of the lowered umbrella did not change, and the man seemed to lean down slightly, glanced at the position of the license plate, and the next second took a step to continue walking.
Black umbrellas disappeared into the night, and the dimly lit streets were once again empty of pedestrians.
"It's late, you can go back first."
Wu Luoyang pushed the car door and came down, and said more to Wen Qiqi in the car: "Drive slowly in the rain and be careful on the road." β
"Okay."
Wen Qiqi smiled, "See you tomorrow." β
"See you tomorrow."
Wen Qiqi drove the car away.
Wu Luoyang stood on the side of the road, watching Wen Qiqi's car turn around the corner, the red taillights disappearing into the rain and fog.
Holding the umbrella in his hand, he turned around and went into the house.
Wu Luoyang closed the big wooden door of Xuanyi Hall with his backhand, and the footsteps passing by the door of the study paused slightly, Master Wu Leiting was still in the study, and she walked in.
"Master, why haven't you slept so late?"
Hearing Wu Luoyang's voice, Master Wu Leiting turned around and looked at her.
Well......
The master sighed heavily, and his tone was a little low: "The mayor of Nancheng Town came to visit. In the past few days and nights, the town has not been very peaceful, it is said that the livestock in various villages have been repeatedly attacked by wolves, causing a lot of complaints, he suspects that the newly dug road of the town's Tongcun project has broken the feng shui, and wants to ask me to come over to help take a look. β
"And you agreed?"
Wu Luoyang walked over and stood beside the master.
"Wolves, wolves coming down from Nine Immortals Mountain......"
Without answering her words, Master Wu Leiting just nodded his head and muttered in a low voice.
Hearing the word "wolf pack", Wu Luoyang chuckled in his heart.
I remembered that when they went to Jiuxian Mountain to strengthen the Boundary Eye Seal a few days ago, they encountered wolves on the mountain, but the wolf king who led the way that night had already been killed by Wu Luoyang, how could they go down the mountain in groups to disturb the people?
Could it be that the wolves they encountered have been controlled by evil spirits again?
Wu Luoyang frowned.
"I suspect that Libra is falling here."
Master Wu Leiting raised his hand and pointed lightly at the top of the gossip mirror: "Luoyang, look here." β
Following the sight of Master Wu Leiting, Wu Luoyang looked at the gossip mirror and showed that the sky above Nancheng had just condensed into a mist the size of a black sesame seed, and it was obviously not yet a climate.
If the wolves coming down the mountain to disturb the people were really caused by the Libra Star Evil in the present world, then it was necessary to go to the Libra Realm Eye Seal to take a look.
Ahem β
Master Wu Leiting raised his hand to cover his mouth, coughed lightly, and his wheezing voice was a little heavy.
Every rainy day, Master's cough would become obvious.
"Master, if you are not feeling well to go out, you should not go to Chengnan Town."
Wu Luoyang hurriedly raised his hand, and the lightly held hand fist landed on the back of Master Wu Leiting and slapped it, his eyes swept over the black line on his master's hand, which had already passed through the palm of his hand and had already extended to his wrist, his eyes were full of worry: "The day after tomorrow is the weekend, I will call Du Surui with my senior brother again, and we will go to Nancheng Town to understand the situation first." β
Although Xuanyitang also helps people look at feng shui, the Du family of Maoshan is more sophisticated in this, and Du Surui is a disciple of Du Hongyuan, so there will naturally be no problem with him.
"It's fine."
Master Wu Leiting eased his breath and nodded lightly.
