The Enemy Outside the Territory Part I, Chapter 9 The Lotus Pond Hides Ghosts
A flying insect flew around the two of them a few times before coming to a stop in a small pool of water in the lotus pond. The tentacles of the insects touched the surface of the water and rippled slightly, and in such a lonely place, any movement could attract attention.
Flying insects float on the surface of the water, standing still. Suddenly, as if something had come out of beneath the surface of the water, it bit the flying insect and dragged it into the water.
Originally, it was a very common image of fish preying on water bugs, but the strange thing is that the things at the bottom of the water make such a big movement that they do not splash, and the water surface is as solid as the ground.
Of course, such a strange phenomenon cannot escape the eyes of the law for a while. Once I walked into the small water, I bent down to see what was in the water.
As a result, this look really made him see the clues and find clues.
"Lin Chen, come and take a look. There seems to be something in this water. ”
"What else could be in this water? a fish or a toad?"
Lin Chen also leaned down and looked east and west towards the water.
"Ahh
"It's not just the light, look here, Qi Feng and Wei Ling are inside. ”
"This, this, what's going on? Why are they all in the water?"
As Lin Chen spoke, he reached out and touched the water.
"Don't move!"
Once it was too late to stop Lin Chen, as soon as the water touched Lin Chen's hand, the picture in the water immediately dissipated, leaving only a finger deep puddle of turbid water.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this......"
"It's fine. But we kind of discovered something. ”
"What did Brother Yi say?"
"You have also seen it just now, there is a light under the surface of the water, and their disappearance must be inseparable from this lotus pond. ”
Night was approaching, and once he returned to the gate of the old palace, not long after arriving, Lin Chen also hurried over.
"Brother I, I'm here. ”
"Have you written a letter to inform Qingyang?"
"I sent someone to deliver the letter, so I don't know if the county lord will help us after reading the letter. ”
"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this, I know Qingyang's personality, she will help with this. ”
Time passed slowly, the evening breeze came together, and the chill hit. Once Lin Chen and the others stood in front of the palace, they were gearing up and looking at each other.
"You say, it's been so long since the appointment was made, why hasn't the county lord come yet?"
"I don't know. Qingyang, this girl, doesn't look like someone who will miss the appointment. Let's wait and see. ”
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, a carriage came from a distance, and once recognized the person driving the horse at the front of the carriage as Miss Azhu, "Hey-Miss Pig, this way!"
Ah Zhu heard the call, and also waved his hand to Yichao, "Yichao Lord!"
Qingyang, who was sitting in the carriage, heard the name of the dynasty, immediately opened the curtain, stretched out his head and shouted "I'm here".
When the chariot was about to approach the palace of a hundred feet, the horse leading the cart suddenly fell into an evil spirit, his neck leaned back vigorously, his front hooves rubbed high and lifted up, his eyes rolled up, and he glared at the boss. He snorted and screamed and trembled, and finally stopped there and did not dare to take another step forward.
"No! The horse seemed to have been frightened by something, and stopped there. Let's go and see. ”
Once he and Lin Chen ran to the carriage and picked up Qingyang and Azhu first, "Are you all right?"
Ah Zhu looked at Qingyang's whole body, for fear that she would be injured, "I'm fine, what about you, county lord?"
Qingyang was a little dizzy from being shaken by the horse in the car just now, and wanted to go over and teach the horse a lesson, "You broken horse, you are less brave than me, begging to fight!" As he spoke, he raised his fist to wave at the horse.
"Hey, why are you hitting him?"
Once grabbed Qingyang's arm.
"This horse will not obey and should be beaten. ”
In the center of the large room, there is a table with a mirror-sized crystal on display.
The crystal side is very smooth and can reflect the appearance of a person. The crystal emitted a sparkling light, and once he raised his wooden sword and stabbed at the crystal. How did I know that the crystal mirror was like water, and the wooden sword was sucked into it like a stabbing water.
Once I touched it with my hands, I found that the mirror was as hard as a rock, strong and indestructible.
In the crystal, the face of a handsome woman gradually emerged.
Isn't that the lacquer painting, the woman?
The crystals grew in size until they reached the roof.
As soon as he stepped back, he accidentally stepped on the hem of his trousers and fell, he got up and walked backwards, only to see the crystal behind him.
In the room at this time, in front of and behind the body, there was a crystal, and the woman who was just now appeared in the crystal.
The woman slowly opened her eyes, opened them slightly, looked at her charmingly, and whispered softly: "Come on, Childe, come quickly......"
I suddenly felt some tinnitus, my head was swollen, and I began to get more and more sleepy.
Suddenly, a pair of large hands reached out from the crystal and pounced like rabbits.
Once he was still awake at the moment, he dodged in time, but unfortunately the road before and after was blocked by these two crystals.
The woman in the crystal, naked, with a long ribbon around her shoulders, spun in circles. Around her, thousands of flowers sprung up, and they also spun up, faster and faster.
Eventually, a black wind suddenly blew out of the crystal, causing pain in the eyes.
