Chapter 12: The Army Divides into Three Ways
Bihua Village. The sound of wind in the cold streets is still there, and the strong smell of blood spreads in the air. The dead branches and leaves are dull, and the moonlight is cold.
Underground in the village, the oil lamp was dimly lit and the dark room was turbulent. Lian Chiyuan frowned and looked at Lu Xi in front of him, "How many people are here?" His tone was cold.
Lu Xi was only in his early twenties, slightly tall, with fine facial features and bright eyes. He opened his mouth and said, "More than five hundred people."
Bai Zhu came in from another dark room, "Nearly a hundred more came."
Lian Chiyuan pursed her lips, "Can you come on the 7th?"
"No one led by the Raikage must have found the girl."
"How could we catch that kid so easily? Forget it, where have the other innocent people in Bihua Village been moved to now?" Lian Chiyuan smiled.
"The darkroom leads directly to a mountain outside the city. Over the mountain is the Dongpu River. There are some unknown small villages along the river, which are safe areas. Why does Your Highness still spend so much effort to protect these Fengtian people."
"Everyone in the world is the same. Since No. 7 didn't come, just let them make trouble up there. The darkroom has been sealed. The rest is left to you. Lu Xi is coming with me." Lian Chiyuan's delicate face could not tell.
The expression is lazy and casual with a little smile.
Seeing Lu Xi following Lian Chiyuan triumphantly, Bai Zhu couldn't help but rolled his eyes and muttered, "Your Highness is partial. Why don't you leave Lu Xi here to clean up the mess?"
Lu Xi's handsome face had an even more unscrupulous smile, "Zhuzi, His Highness is using you so much that he made you familiar with the darkroom and knowledgeable. In case I don't handle it well, I leave some clues for Fengtian people to search the darkroom.
Well, wouldn't that ruin a big thing? Don't be disrespectful and do your best." Lu Xi has always been full of ruffianism and is very immoral, at least compared to Baizhu.
Lian Chiyuan looked back at them, and Lu Xi immediately stopped smiling, "The Dongpu River has been so troubled in the past few years that in recent years the gang of pirates on the river have been rampant. The rich can be the enemy of the country, and they are extremely cruel. If we stop and return, we will
During the day, we must pass by the Dongpu River. We can walk faster than her from the dark room, so we can prepare a few things in advance."
As soon as Bai Zhu heard about the pirates, he understood why he wanted to lead Lu Xi. He stopped getting emotional and nodded obediently.
But at this time, Su Gurong, who was guarding the red building in the city, was extremely annoyed. Except for some livestock, all the people in Bihua Village disappeared. They turned upside down and disappeared without a trace. He ran very fast.
"A bunch of trash." Su Gurong's mole glowed with bloodthirsty light under the candlelight, and his handsome face was extremely cold.
No. 7 came in from outside the door, holding in his hand a woman in white and brocade robes covered in blood. The woman seemed to have been severely tortured and was dying. There were wounds of varying depths all over her body, and the strong smell of blood spread rapidly.
Su Gurong frowned.
"This is one of the prisoners captured from Qishan, named Hua Song. As she said, the tips are with the girl named Su Zhi. Su Zhi has practiced the Qishan Royal Girl Sutra and is proficient in the use of medicine.
Poison's only characteristic is that she has a unique soul-locking stone in her hand. The subordinates seemed to have some impressions of her last time they fought against her, but they didn't expect that the small red stone on her hand was what everyone in the world wanted.
Soul Locking Stone."
"Su Zhi." Su Gurong read the name softly. His tense brows relaxed slightly. He was willing to take a gamble, Su Zhi was hiding in the only Ishihara motorcade leaving the city. If he was really there,
Killing all the stone fields in Suzhi. Killing two birds with one stone, wouldn't it be great?
When Hua Song heard this name, her bruised body was not as painful as the pain in her heart. It was as if someone had dug her heart out deeply, and it was bleeding.
'Ah Hua, let me teach you to sing. One of my favorite songs.'
'Sister Ahua, don't tell Master about my secret drinking. I know you are the best. Come and give me a kiss.'
‘Don’t you like Brother Asi? I made this for you a few days ago. In the place where I used to live, this was called a couple’s accessory. I wish you a happy marriage soon, haha.’
My eyes were burning, and two lines of tears poured out. Ah Zhi, I am not betraying the master, I want to save Xiyue. Just your name can exchange for Xiyue's life, I have no choice.
"Did you ask about anything else?" Su Gurong's mood improved greatly and she said with a smile.
"I can't ask anything about Qishan. I've tried it on other people, but when I couldn't bear to talk, I would be poisoned and died. I can only ask about Su Zhi. She only told Su Zhi to save his sweetheart.
This name."
Su Gurong stood up, her uniform fluttering. "That's enough." He walked up to Hua Song and gently raised her chin. There were still some scars on Hua Song's face, but they still couldn't hide her delicate appearance. Su
Gu Rong bent over and said softly, "From today on, you will be my personal maid. Tell me everything about Su Zhi, down to the smallest detail. Otherwise, I will chop your sweetheart into pieces, piece by piece."
Feed the dogs.”
Hua Song had never felt such a strong cold air, and it was so cold that her back felt cold. Su Gurong's eyes were narrow and cunning, like a wolf or a tiger, which made people look away.
Jian Hua Song was so frightened that she smiled softly and said, "Are you afraid of me?"
Hua Song's body was trembling, and her lips were trembling so much that she couldn't speak. There were tears on her delicate face.
Su Gurong laughed even louder, "You are so scared, but you know that Su Zhi wanted to eat me when she saw me. She was seriously injured and threatened that it would not be too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years. What kind of person is she?
Gentleman?"
Hua Song knew Su Zhi's character. Although he had been in Qishan for a long time, he was far less courageous than Su Zhi. Even Chi Yuan had a headache for her and had nothing to do, let alone the others.
The more Su Gurong thought about stopping, the more he felt that the person in front of him was boring. He waved his hand and said, "Go and clean it up. You have to be elegant when listening to stories, right?"
"Do you still want to investigate the city?"
"No need to waste your energy. Lian Chiyuan is interfering with her. Even if Su Zhi is in the city, we can't catch her."
"Lian Chiyuan?"
Su Gurong was surprised when he saw No. 7, "Who do you think has the ability to play with me so much? I'll sweep him to open the mountain, and he'll sweep me to defend the city. It's interesting."
"If Su Zhi meets Lian Chiyuan and hands over his sperm vesicle, wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain?"
"No. Even if Lian Chiyuan meets Su Zhi, the kit is not something he can take. Just catch her before Su Zhi finds Tomorrow Tongzhao Jun Mo Wen."
Su Gurong was in a good mood and walked around the room. With a smile on his face, he suddenly turned his head and said to No. 7, "Why are you hanging around? Go clean it up. I'll have fun on the carriage later."
"Carriage? Where is His Royal Highness going?"
"Ishihara congratulates me on my birthday. Let's leave immediately."
No. 7 was sweating on his forehead and disappeared into the room with a flower ode in his hand.
For two whole days, Su Zhi was exhausted from traveling. There were some peaceful-looking small villas located on the upper reaches of the Huangpu River. Just like a very hungry person seeing red plums, Su Zhi took a breath and looked towards them.
Walk to the village.
The scorching sun was beating down on her head. The sweat all over her body made her frown slightly. Her throat was dry and itchy, and due to the drugs, her mouth sounded like a dull bell.
There was a simple thatched house at the entrance of the village. The old man who bought tea poured tea for passers-by with his hunched back. The big men on the way sat in a row in twos and threes, shouting for another bowl.
Su Zhi found the nearest seat, stretched out his arm and waved to the old man, "Old man, here's a bowl of tea."
"Okay." The old man was old but agile. He poured tea for Su Zhi and started chatting with the big man next to him.
"It's so hard to drive on such a hot day, so why not take a short break."
One of the big men gulped down the tea and said with a simple smile, "How can we delay this? The pirates on the Huangpu River are making such a big fuss. A large group of caravans came yesterday. We have to follow that caravan.
Protect yourself.”
"Don't pirates specialize in robbing caravans?"
"What you don't know is that this caravan is the goods of Shiyuan No. 1 Villa. The escorts are all top-notch experts. How could they be robbed by mere pirates?"
"That's right, this pirate on the Huangpu River is named Wudu. He specializes in robbing the royal family and the powerful. In the past few years, goods from various countries have been lost in the Huangpu River. Especially last year, the Wudu pirates were severely defeated by the people of the next day. Since then,
After that, they even unleashed their hatred on the large caravan, which was even worse than before, and no officers and soldiers from all countries could suppress it." The young man sitting next to the big man also participated in the conversation.
The sweater's expression changed, "So, the more you follow them, the less safe it will be."
"That's right. The Wudu pirates are targeting royal dignitaries. I think you only have some small goods, so it's better not to get involved and wait until the caravan has left before continuing on your way."
They discussed in a few words and listened word by word. They gently raised the tea in their hands and poured it into their mouths. Liu Yuan suddenly came to mind. They put down the money on the table and left in a hurry.
By the time Su Zhi arrived at the ferry, it was already half a step too late. The huge merchant ship had already left, leaving a faint shadow on the blue waves. After asking for a long time, no one came to ferry her across the river, and she had no choice but to spend all her money.
I just bought a small boat, hid some food in the boat and drove it by myself.
She had never been on a boat before and it took a lot of effort to get the boat to move slowly. Her posture was funny. On the crystal clear river, Su Zhi was dressed in Tsing Yi, her black hair was flowing lightly, and she was wearing a
The halo was slightly visible. The slender fingers held the oar hard, using all their strength, eager to catch up with the huge merchant ship.
Until dusk, when she almost slipped and lost her hand, she was still far away from the merchant ship, keeping a distant view. The sweat from her forehead dripped down her cheeks and fell on the ship's deck, making a crisp sound.
Su Zhi was a little discouraged, so he went back inside the boat to light the candle, stuffed his mouth with some food to satisfy his hunger, and sat on a stool, squinting his eyes and thinking of a solution. Suddenly, the hull of the boat shook a little, and a damp air rushed into the room.
The boat curtains were lifted by the wind, and the candles were blown out. Su Zhi gently raised the corners of his mouth in the darkness, his big eyes sparkling.
Although the Dongpu River is a river, it is larger than the ordinary sea. It is extremely vast. The waves that originally seemed peaceful became ripples at this moment. The amplitude of the vibrations was not large, but it was enough to overturn her boat. The small vibrations became
It shook, and the decorations in the boat fell down.
