Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 36
[Chapter 27]
Teng Yuyi took a pill into her mouth, this medicine is sweet as honey, there is a cool fragrance, if you usually take it, you will be able to relieve pain, but at this time her throat is as unconscious as wood, and taking the medicine will not get better. 21
Gu Xian did not expect Teng Yuyi to be able to speak immediately, seeing that her expression was quiet, thinking that this medicine had some soothing use, he said warmly: “This medicine can only cure the table, and the root needs to be combined with the internal medicine, if Teng Niangzi feels better, she can carry this medicine with her in the future, regardless of whether it is morning or evening, as long as you feel uncomfortable, you can take a pill.” Teng Yuyi
nodded with a smile.
Lin Chengyou watched from the side, but did not say a word.
Gu Xian was busy with the administration of medicine, turned around to find that Lin Chengyou smiled strangely, he was scared, and was about to ask Lin Chengyou if he knew Teng Yuyi, but Unexpectedly, Lin Chengyou took Ah Zhi’s hand and took the lead in walking upwards: “The hour is not early, please come to the table.”
Gu Xian took a seat by himself: “I haven’t asked you yet, what did you do the day before yesterday when you took my Ruyi horse away?”
Lin Chengyou took the guest roster handed by the maid and said, “Let’s see if Ruyi Xiao runs fast or my Purple Wind runs fast.”
“Then who wins.”
Lin Chengyou looked up and smiled: “Joke, of course, is my purple wind.”
Gu Xian sighed lightly: “What is a round, my Ruyi horse is a little older, and we will turn back a few more times.” “Well
, that’s it, but don’t forget, my rule has always been to lose the horse.”
Teng Yuyi took the tea handed by the next person, and secretly wondered that this Gu Xian not only knew Lin Chengyou, but the relationship between the two seemed to be good.
When everyone was seated, Lin Chengyou smiled: “Sister She holds a poetry meeting every half a month, and domon poets come to help with the light.” In the past, every time the mother accompanied the sister to do the east, but since the grandmother traveled, this poetry meeting has been shelved for half a year, today the sister started to rise again, I should have been here as a companion, how can I have something important, I have to take a step first, in order to apologize, I prepared some pen and ink paper as a gift, and please look at the face of the sister and smile. After
saying this, the servants rushed in, each holding a white incense wood tray and placing it on the guests’ bills in turn.
In the tray was a set of pen and ink, all of which were of the highest quality, and the stack of paper notes was not known whether it was made of mulberry skin or ramie, the light was thick and even, extremely inky, and it was suitable for transcribing poetry.
The yan is a dragon whisker stone, and the name of the guest has been engraved with a small seal on the base of each brick in advance, so that even the guests with thin skin can take this generous gift home with dignity.
Everyone was surprised beyond words, in addition to the children of the family who came to participate in this poetry meeting tonight, there were also many poor and sour Confucian students from the cold door of the White House, this set of pens, ink and paper stones may not be anything to your households, but for the shy children of the guests, it is almost comparable to Ganlin.
At this time, the guests were happy, and everyone was impressed.
Teng Yuyi did not move the ink, but Du Tinglan was slightly surprised.
After all, the county lord was only nine years old, and it was impossible to act so thoroughly, thinking that this was arranged by The Prince of Cheng, and it was rare to give pen and ink instead of gold and silver, which greatly took care of the dignity of the lone label people. Lin Chengyou was generous and generous, and that thick note alone was enough for each person to use for half a year.
This person looked cynical on his face, and he did not expect that in order to make his sister happy, even a small poetry club would be willing to spend such a thought.
Lord Jingde was very happy to see that the little Lang Jun and the little lady invited, and also learned the tone of his brother’s speech, and instructed the maid: “Since the poets have all arrived, quickly present the refreshments, remember that the snacks that everyone likes to use are different, don’t be confused.” The
maid smiled and held up the guest roster: “The maid has checked it again and again, and she will never dare to make a mistake.”
Lin Chengyou chatted with Gu Xian for a few words, got up and walked to the top, sat down next to the old Ru who had been dozing off, and coughed: “Master?
This old Confucian is a famous Confucian of this dynasty, known as Yu Gong, a teacher specially invited by the ChengwangFu from Guozi, who will come to preside over the poetry meeting every month, and he was disturbed by Lin Chengyou’s coughing, he slowly opened his eyelids, and when he saw that it was Lin Chengyou, his expression instantly turned to panic.
Lin Chengyou smiled and said, “Master sleep well?”
Yu Gong shook his sleeve, raised his hand to wipe the sweat, and said, “Good sleep, good sleep.” “Although
it is Ah Zhi who is responsible for entertaining guests today, it is the Master who presides over the overall situation, and the Master bothers a lot, don’t let Ah Zhi make a fool of himself.”
Yu Gong nodded solemnly, “Shizi and rest assured.”
Lin Chengyou looked at the two old servants behind him, and the two old servants nodded, one holding refreshments and the other holding a towel, walked behind Yu Gong, and sat down left and right.
The one on the left said, “Master, please use the apricot breast.” The
one on the right said, “Master, please clean your hands.”
Yu Gong was caught between the left and right, for a time like sitting on a needle felt, was forced by the servant to clean the handle, sleepiness suddenly swept away, he took the tea handed by Lin Chengyou himself, his face was full of helplessness: “Shizi, you can rest assured to go, there is an old man, tonight this poem will definitely be properly observed.”
Lin Chengyou let Go of Yu Gong and said to Ah Zhi, “Commander Chang is just outside the water pavilion, don’t be too naughty, if you make Yu Fuzi angry, don’t expect Brother Ah to go to the guozi to supervise the reparations for you.”
Ah Zhi muttered in disbelief, but the little head nodded.
Lin Chengyou snorted with a smile and stood up, “Everyone, please take a step first.”
When they passed by Lu Zhao’an, Lin Chengyou suddenly stopped: “Your excellency is Lu Jinshi, who won the championship in one fell swoop this year?”
Lu Zhao’an said, “Lu Mou has seen His Highness Shizi.”
Lin Chengyou smiled brightly: “Look up for a long time.” I have long heard that Lu Gongzi has the talent of young money and ten thousand choices, and when I saw him today, your excellency is indeed not bad. Forgive me for staying with me today, and ask Lu Gongzi to have a good drink another day. Lu Zhaoan was
still in a flattered posture: “Domon Shizi looks at each other with blue eyes, and Lu Mou is not honored.” Zheng Shuangyin’s
eyes drooped slightly, but he had obviously been paying attention to the conversation between Lu Zhaoan and Lin Chengyou, watching Lu Zhaoan cope with it freely, and a touch of Blush slowly appeared on his face.
Teng Yuyi looked at Lu Zhao’an with great interest, if he had not known that this person was despicable, just by looking at this unassuming appearance, anyone would have felt that he was high-spirited and graceful, and then looking at Zheng Shuangyin’s appearance, it is estimated that not only did he know that Zheng Zhao’e intended to make a kiss for himself, but also praised Lu Zhao’an.
She smiled and looked at Zheng Shuangyin, her heart was secretly calculating, Du Tinglan suddenly grabbed her hand and quietly wrote in her palm: Lin Chengyou already knows that Lu Zhaoan asked me to go to the bamboo forest, and inviting Lu Zhaoan to come today does it mean that he has begun to investigate Lu Zhaoan?
Teng Yuyi shook her head, she couldn’t figure out what medicine Lin Chengyou was selling in the gourd.
After a few words with Lu Zhao’an, Lin Chengyou resigned and left.
Yu Gong cleared his throat: “Recently, our Four Seasons Poetry Society has become famous in Chang’an because of its repeated masterpieces, and according to the old man, as long as it is held for a long time, the Four Seasons Poetry Society will become the most famous poetry society in Chang’an.” Unfortunately, when the county lord reaches the age of ten next year, for the sake of men and women, this poetry meeting can no longer be held. The
crowd looked regretful: “Why not separate the men’s seat from the women’s seat at that time?” Yu
Gong brushed his beard, “It depends on the meaning of the princess.” Today, the club reopened, there were many new friends on the table, the old man is the teacher of the county lord, he has to re-talk about the rules, and the four seasons poetry meeting is heldSo far, it has always been informal, but there are also some traditional customs that need to be known to new friends in advance. The poetry meeting is held once every half a month, and each time a question is drawn up, or five words or seven laws, and the best poem is selected by everyone after the poem is completed.
Out of nowhere, there was a strange noise, grunting, as if someone was hungry and chirping, and suddenly interrupted Yu Gong’s words.
Yu Gong coughed, and Ah Zhi was stunned: “This is a certain Shihao hungry, right?” The
crowd roared.
“How do you write poetry when you’re hungry?” Ah Zhi instructed the maid with great interest, “Then bring the wine and food first.”
Yu Gong reminded Ah Zhi at the side: “Lord, the hour is not early, while the wine and food have not yet been served, you may wish to draw up a poem title first.”
Teng Yuyi looked out the window, only to go out in the afternoon, unconsciously it was nearly dusk, the orange-red sunset was reflected on the water, and a ripple of fine waves was glistening.
The Lord of Jingde County tilted his head and thought about it, and chong Zheng Shuangyin said, “Sister Zheng is a famous eyebrow sweeper in Chang’an City, and today Sister Zheng will draft the topic.”
Zheng Shuangyin owed his body, looked up at Yu Gong’s white hair, said in a sinful voice, and said with a smile: “‘When can you turn your eyebrows, the hair of the crane is as messy as silk’ (Note 1), it is better to take the title of ‘white hair’, without informal rhyme, to line two seven laws, and take the mood of those who fly far away as the best work.” I don’t know what the county lord wants?
Yu Gongwan did not expect to do poetry on his head, and he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Lord Jingde nodded, “Well, it’s finally no longer Shochiku Jumei, I’ve long been tired of those problems, what do you think?” Everyone was
busy echoing: “This question is very good, it is not easy to play.” The Lord of
Jingde County turned to Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan again: “Lady Teng, Lady Du, when you first attend the meeting, it is inevitable that you will be a little restrained, if you feel unsatisfactory, you can mention it to us.” What do you think of this ‘white hair’ today?
Du Tinglan owes a debt: “Historically, Yong white hair, if you are not careful, will reveal a sad attitude, Zheng Niangzi took white hair as the theme, but advocated that ‘the artistic conception of flying far away is a good work’, Yong white hair without self-harm, not falling into the mortar, quite innovative.”
Zheng Shuangyin looked at Du Tinglan with a slight surprise, and Teng Yuyi took the opportunity to wink at Zheng Shuangyin.
Zheng Shuangyin was stunned, and unconsciously Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi showed friendly smiles.
Ah Zhi saw that the three of them were like this, and became more and more happy: “Then set the title of ‘white hair’.” Now you can conceive it in your belly first, and when you have finished eating, you can transcribe it on a piece of paper. I will take the first three poems to the palace for the saints and queens to see, and the rest that are not selected will also be collected into a book. As soon
as these words came out, the ladies on the table were gone, but the young scholar was invigorated, and if the county lord could directly send the poems to the saints, he would have a better chance of participating in the imperial examination in the future. So one by one, they searched for the dry intestines, or looked out the window, or sat on the seat and meditated.
By the time the wine and food were served, the sky outside the window had dimmed a dark blue, and everyone returned to their seats to eat, still looking absent-minded.
The maids put the food boxes in front of each person in turn, because it was one person and a few, the food boxes were also prepared according to the head of the person, and when they were sent to Yu Gong, they were shocked to find that there was one box missing.
Azhiqi said, “Why is there one less?” The
maids had a different color on their faces, and when they went to the kitchen to get the food box, they had carefully checked the list with the kitchen ladies, and they were sure that there was no mistake or omission before they were relieved to take the food box, and there was one less box out of thin air, unless the list was wrong, but when the pen and ink paper was presented to each guest before, it was a copy of no more than one copy.
The leading maid pleaded guilty herself: “If you think you missed it, the maid immediately went to the kitchen to get it.” ”
Go for it.” Ah Zhi sighed and respectfully pushed his food box in front of Yu Gong, “Teacher use it first.”
Yu Gong hurriedly pushed back: “The county lord will use it first.” The
two of them pushed back and forth, and the guests did not dare to move.
Teng Yuyi looked at the maids at the door, and only felt strange in his heart, Cheng Wang and his wife had a generous royal palace, a large royal palace, everyone was in and out of moderation, the poetry club guests were only more than forty people, how could there be such a mistake.
Fortunately, the maids quickly returned with another food box, and Ah Zhi did not ask any more questions, so that they put down the food box and withdrew.
“They all blame the recklessness of the people.” Ah Zhi smiled, “Let you wait a long time, please move it.” The
people at the table began to eat, the evening breeze was blowing slowly, the lantern under the corner of the eaves made a creaking sound, Teng Yuyi had just eaten a bite of cloves, and felt the small sword in his sleeve start to heat up.
She wondered secretly, should this little old man smell the wine on the table and start making a fuss again? It really doesn’t matter the occasion. It seems that the last time the discipline was not in place, she herself was greedy for wine, probably knowing that Xiao Ya was not happy, if she ignored it, the little old man couldn’t help but jump out.
She flicked her sleeve inside, both to appease and warn, and she couldn’t resist the temptation of a glass of wine, and how to go out with her later.
Xiao Ya seemed to be a little afraid of Teng Yuyi, and was immediately honest with her, and the sword body was soon no longer hot, but it was still a little warm.
Teng Yuyi relaxed his mind and continued to eat quietly.
At this time, the maids came in to present melons and fruits, and overheard a crisp sound, and some maids fell off the plate.
Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi were surprised by a pair of eyes, what was going on, this can be called disrespectful, and the maid was different from the others, looking like an old man in the palace.
Lord Jingde was furious, “Huan Rui, what happened to you today?” Huan Rui
panicked, “If you go back to the county lord, there are more people in this and this water pavilion.”
“More people?” Ah Zhi was puzzled, “What is more people?” Huan Rui looked around confusedly: “The
sons of have repeatedly counted the number of melons and fruits before taking someone to present them, because they have missed a wine and food before, this time they have added an extra copy, who knows that after the delivery is completed, out of thin air, there is one less!”
Yu Gong was stunned: “If there is one less copy, there is one less, why make a fuss, as soon as there are more people, it is easy to make trouble, maybe you did not pay attention, and it is not known if you sent one more copy to a certain guest.” “Absolutely
not.” Huan Rui shook her head desperately, “The sons of have just made a mistake, this time they are doubly cautious, and they will present a melon fruit before each guest to ensure that there will be no more leakages, not to mention that there are no two plates on the case, how can they be wrong.”
Gu Xianjing listened to this and put the wine cup and asked, “Did you remember the wrong number of people?” Maybe when you counted the heads before, there were guests who went to the clean room. Huan Rui
shivered, “Definitely not, the son of a has been taking people to the door since the afternoon to obey orders, and after Shizi left, there was no one in the water pavilion at all.”
As she spoke, she looked at the people in the waterhole, as if she wanted to find out who was more, but the more she looked for it, the more frightened she became.
Teng Yuyi unconsciously followed the seat to look for it, but before she could see what was going on, Xiao Ya’s sword was boiling hot again.
Teng Yuyi’s heart tightened, this was the second time Xiao Ya Sword had done so, she quietly took the sword out of her sleeve and quitLooking around, the window is already low at night, the palace lights are burned inside and outside the water pavilion, and the faces of the people are hidden in the shadows of the lights, and they can’t see anything unusual for a while.
Lord Jingde was stunned: “Since no one is in and out, why don’t you count the guest roster again?” “Exactly
.” Old Ru scolded, “Such a panicked cry, what a system!”
Huan Rui was ashamed of herself, and prostrated her head repeatedly, and immediately a maid took the guest roster and handed it to Huan Rui.
Huan Rui stooped to the side, barely fixed his mind, starting from the male guest seats on the east side, and began to compare one by one.
The crowd didn’t care about drinking and eating, they couldn’t say what was wrong, but they just felt that in an instant, the water pavilion was cold, the night wind poured in from the Xuan window, the notes on the strip were rustled, and the lights and shadows in the four corners swayed endlessly, illuminating the room brightly and darkly.
When Teng Yuyi came out, she carried a lot of charms on her body, strangely there was no movement, she did not believe that the qingyun guan’s charms would be inferior to the Dongming guan divine powers, but if there was really a demon, the charms should have been warned long ago.
The first two times only the heads were counted, but this time the maids kept their hearts, counting and matching each person’s appearance to the names on the roster.
After counting the male guests on the east side, and then counting the female guests on the west side, at first glance, there is nothing wrong with it.
Soon it was the turn of the three little ladies in the corner, in turn, Meng Situ, Wang Shiyi and Li Shuque’s family’ Qianjin…
When counting meng niangzi, the maid’s eyes widened, looked down at the roster, looked up at the front, and stammered: “Sister Huanrui, did you add guests temporarily?” The little lady on the right side of Meng Niangzi is not recorded in the roster. Huan Rui’s
face turned white suddenly: “Only three guests were added temporarily, Teng Niangzi and Du Niangzi in the women’s seat, and Lu Gongzi in the men’s seat, do you look carefully, is it Teng Niangzi or Du Niangzi?” Everyone
was shocked, and when they were discussing the title of the poem, the county lord had asked Tengdu alone, and now the two were sitting in their places in a good manner, so the only person in the corner could be someone else.
So I looked at it in shock, the back row was not as bright as the main hall, and in a hazy light and shadow, there sat a girl with a double beard.
The girl was looking down at the contents of the case, and she ate very slowly and carefully, as if she had been hungry for too long, and there was nothing around her that could attract her attention except the wine and food in front of her.
Teng Yuyi’s heart gushed out a sense of foreboding, no wonder Xiao Yajian repeatedly warned, the Chengwang Palace was heavily guarded, the water pavilion was surrounded by guards, when this woman appeared, no one noticed.
The strangest thing is why the little lady of the Mencius Situ family suddenly has more strangers around her, why she is indifferent.
Several young ladies next to her were frightened to leave the table, and the only Meng Xiaoniang was motionless, she looked down at the case with a smile, as if she was extremely satisfied with the wine and food, and it was like listening to others, listening to it well.
Wang Shiyi’s daughter made friends with Meng Niangzi, trembling and trembling, she went forward to pull Meng Niangzi: “Aning, the one on your right-”
Unexpectedly, as soon as she touched Meng Niangzi’s clothes, Meng Niangzi maintained a strange smile, and Mu Ran fell to the side.
This movement alarmed the girl, and the girl twisted her neck and turned her head very slowly, and the crowd was frightened and did not wait to see the woman’s face, only to hear a few pops, and the water was plunged into darkness.
All this came too quickly, and the Lord of Jingde County exclaimed, “Uncle Chang! Footsteps
came in a cacophony, and some people surrounded the water pavilion, and the clothes outside the Xuan Window fluttered, and people on both sides jumped in.
“Palm lamp! Catch the thief! It was
the voice of a middle-aged man, his voice was strong, his internal strength did not seem to be low, his speech speed was fast, and he was clearly an impatient person.
“Always lead, can’t light the lamp.”
“Nonsense! How can you not light the lamp? “Several
of the subordinates have tried, but I don’t know if the fire fold is damp and can’t make a fire at all.”
“Don’t go to the storeroom to get the night pearl yet!”
Many people on the table hid flint stones in their arms, and they also took them out, and the results were repeatedly failed, the woman was already strange, everyone was in the dark, it was inevitable that they would be afraid, even if they could sit still, hula ran outside.
Teng Yuyi had already made preparations and dragged Du Tinglan to leave the table first.
But before the two of them could take the lead in running out of the water pavilion, the students chased after them, only because they were busy fleeing for their lives, they could no longer take care of Swen, and one by one, they were as strong as cattle, and they knocked Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan down by the door.
Teng Yuyi scolded in his heart, he knew that he should have learned martial arts well in the first place, and when he fled for his life, he didn’t care about anything else, and his strength was the most effective.
She struggled to get up, and was knocked down again, the door was narrow after all, and everyone was in a hurry to flee.
Du Tinglan hugged Teng Yuyi deadly, thinking that he would not be able to get up for a while and a half, but he was afraid that Teng Yuyi would be trampled, so he first protected Teng Yuyi in a hurry.
Teng Yuyi suddenly became full of strength, groping and hugging the door leaf, and dragging both people up hard, but when he came out, he was dumbfounded, the palace lights on the lakeside were extinguished, and the whole palace was black, not to mention fleeing, even the east, west, south and north could not be distinguished.
Many people ran out of the corridor, all of them overwhelmed.
“Whoever has a fire fold, take it out and try again.”
Immediately after that, there was the sound of hitting the flint, and someone exclaimed in horror, “Still not!” How can this be good!
“And according to patience, now we can only wait for the palace guards to take us out, don’t run around blindly with black lights, and beware of falling into the lake.”
“Is that woman a human or a ghost?”
Someone whispered, “Quick—don’t say it, I’m afraid she’s in our midst right now.” The
little ladies could not contain the fear in their hearts, and screamed in horror, just at this moment, a bright light suddenly appeared on the shore, like the servants of a certain Xuantang hall looking for a fire fold and temporarily lighting the lantern under the porch.
“There’s light over there.” The crowd suddenly had a direction and rushed to the shore.
Teng Yuyi was still a little hesitant, but at this moment, someone came out of the water pavilion again. The crowd was afraid that the strange woman would catch up, and in an instant they fell into great panic, not caring that there was water all around, and they were about to flee.
Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan were pushed and shoved, and they also went ashore along the crowd, and it was strange that the people in the provinces were waiting on the shore, and at this time they all did not know where to go.
Teng Yuyi could not find the two fake maids, he could only keep up with the pace of the crowd, and when he got closer, he knew that it was a quiet courtyard located in the garden, the courtyard door was open, and the lights inside and outside were bright.
Everyone was just about to pour into the courtyard when they heard someone on the trail behind them catch up, and when they looked at it from a distance, it turned out to be a group of palace guards.
The middle-aged man in the lead was probably the Chang Commander, and he was carrying the Lord of Jingde County on his back.
and then there was Gu Xian, Gu Xian also carried a person on his back, look closely, it turned out to be the old Dragon Bell Yu Gong, Yu Gong lay motionless on Gu Xian’s back, as if he had passed out.
Lord Jingde cried, “I want my brother, so I will call my brother back.” Chang
Tong said, “It has already made people rush to find Shizi, and the county lord is assured, but he is just a small thief, and there is already a heavenly net around him, and he will soon catch this man.”
At this time, someone caught up with him again: “Commander Chang, a few of his subordinates have searched inside and outside the water pavilion, neither the strange woman nor the Meng Niangzi, there are three guards inside and outside, it is reasonable that they will not escape so quickly, unless the woman sneaks into the water with Meng Niangzi.” Everyone
remembered the situation when Lady Meng fell down with a smile on her face, and their hearts could not help but be a little afraid. Wang and Li made friends with Meng Xiaoniang and couldn’t help but cry.
The Lord of Jingde County stopped crying: “Don’t let that thing take Lady Meng away, quickly find a way to save people.” Chang
Tong said, “This woman has divine powers, after all, she still has a Meng Niangzi with her, such a short time, she will not run too far, leaving thirty people to escort the county lord out of the palace, the rest go to seal the water pavilion around, the eyes can’t see, they listen with their ears, as long as there is movement, immediately cast a net to save people, the corner of the garden is not spared, do not let the person escape.”
“Yes.” The guards took the order and left.
Yu Gong on Gu Xian’s body suddenly moved, humming in pain.
“What happened to the Master?”
Gu Xian said, “The Fangcai Water Pavilion is too chaotic, the master accidentally injured his foot, leave here as soon as possible, and find a medical officer to diagnose and treat him.” Everyone
panicked: “I can’t see the five fingers around, I am not familiar with the layout of the house, if I run outside randomly, maybe I will be injured like Yu Gong, since there is a lamp here, it is better to go first to rest, and then go out after the woman is captured.”
Gu Xian looked up at the lantern in the courtyard, and there was some hesitation on his face, but everyone was impatient to go inside, and Teng Yuyi was busy dragging Du Tinglan.
Du Tinglan understood and shouted, “Everyone, stay!” The
crowd stopped in amazement.
The Xiaoya Sword in Teng Yuyi’s sleeve began to burn, and he hurriedly wrote in Du Tinglan’s palm: “It is dark in Manchuria, and there are lamps here alone, I am afraid that there will be deception.” Mo stayed here and left the house quickly.
Du Tinglan said accordingly, many people began to be suspicious, Gu Xian looked at Teng Yuyi, and his face showed praise: “Lady Teng is right, if you don’t believe it, you may wish to try the fire fold, if you still can’t make a fire, who lit the lantern in this courtyard?” When
the crowd tried, they could not ignite it, and they retreated in fear.
“Sure enough, it was not right, and Fang Cai was really dizzy.”
“It was dangerous, but I didn’t go in.”
Commander Chang scolded, “What a bold evil man who dared to run to the Chengwang Mansion to do evil, don’t be afraid of it, I will send you out of the palace immediately, I have been in the palace for many years, and I can move around freely without lights.” The
crowd was terrified and crowded to keep up with Commander Chang, and as soon as Teng Yuyi inadvertently looked up, he saw Lu Zhao’an next to Commander Chang and Lord Jingde.
This man was spared his life, knowing that it was safest to be next to these two at this time.
As he walked, his head darkened again, and it was strange that a large palace could not hear the sound of people walking around.
Fortunately, commander Chang walked steadily and quickly, and with him leading the way, it was estimated that he would soon be out of the garden.
The night is like ink, the wind is quiet, no one dares to open his mouth along the way, the surrounding is extremely quiet, and only the sound of each other’s breathing and footsteps can be heard in the ears.
Darkness can indeed destroy people’s will, most people are already cold and sweaty, although so many people are next to each other, but their hearts are falling, suddenly someone is screaming: “Wait! The
crowd narrowed their hearts, “What’s wrong?” The
man said, “There seems to be one more person behind me, me.” This was the
voice of the little lady of Li Shi’s family, as if she was scared to the extreme, and she had gathered enough courage to send it out, and the crowd was first surprisingly silent, and then it exploded, and one by one held her head and scurried around, lest the thing be next to her.
The guards distinguished the noise and drew their swords to stab at that side, but the place was empty, not to mention the strange woman, even Lady Li was not in place.
Someone shouted urgently, “Lady Li! ”
Lady Lee! Where are you! Shouting
several times in succession, none of them heard Li Xiaoniang reply, such a short time, there was actually another person lost under her eyes.
The commander-in-chief was shocked and angry, and everyone was immediately frightened, and there was still a long way to go out of the palace, what if they encountered that thing again and again.
Next to it was the Flower Hall, and someone panicked and climbed up the steps to push open the partition door: “I will never go forward, and if I am not scared to death, I will be abducted.” Zheng Shuangyin’s heart palpitated, and he said busily: “The
flower hall is pitch black, the door is closed, I think that the thing will not be inside, it is better to find two people to check at the door, the remaining one by one to go inside, wait for people to close the door when they are together, so that there is always no worry about that thing mixed in.” “Right
, right, this is the best, when the son of the world comes, it is not too late for us to come out again.”
Before catching the thing, no one dared to rush forward again, and Chang Commander said, “We will check the gate at the door, and then release people inside after confirmation.” The Lord of
Jingde County calmed down a lot: “Uncle Chang, you were not in the water pavilion when the accident occurred, I am afraid that you will not recognize the appearance of the woman, in addition to the guards, you have to leave a person from the poetry club to help recognize people.” Unfortunately, there are no lights now, we are blind, how to tell who is who.
Teng Yuyi took out xiao ya sword, only hating that there was no moonlight tonight, otherwise there was some unique light on the sword, which could barely illuminate people’s eyebrows.
Chang Tong threw the knife across his chest, but there was no light in the ash, and he could no longer sit still in the darkness, so he asked the guards next to him urgently: “I just sent someone to the warehouse to get the night pearl, why haven’t I seen the turn?”
Gu Xian said to a guard beside him, “Take the master over.” The man only when Gu Xian was
tired, busy carrying Yu Gong to himself, Gu Xian groped in his arms for a while, and suddenly a ball of bright and shiny things suddenly appeared in the darkness, about the night pearl or something, although the light was not as good as the lamp, but at least it could illuminate the person in front of him.
He lifted the pearl of the night in front of him, and the light reflected his face clearly, his facial features were deep, and his complexion was like jade.
“If it weren’t for the constant commander’s reminder, I would have forgotten that I was carrying this thing on my body, this thing can clearly look at the appearance, and I don’t have to worry about the thief getting through the pass.” Commander Chang, you first take people in to explore the way, leaving two guards behind, and join me in guarding the door. After all, Gu Xian was
a distinguished guest in the palace, and the commander was a little hesitant, but the remaining students who were either powerless were little ladies, and the opportunity to change was far inferior to Gu Xian, heIt is no longer verbose: “Just according to the words of Prince Wen.”
So starting from the Chang Commander and the Lord of Jingde County, one by one lined up to go inside, and when it was Teng Yuyi’s turn, Teng Yuyi touched the body of Xiao Ya’s sword, Xiao Ya’s sword was warm as water, and he thought that there was nothing unclean in it, so he was relieved to go inside.
Chang Commander placed Ah Zhi well, and did not dare to leave, but he was worried about the situation outside, so he had to hold a knife and guard the door.
Everyone sat cross-legged in the flower hall, although they still couldn’t see their five fingers, but they were finally more down-to-earth than fangcai’s ghost.
Teng Yuyi sat leaning on the pillar, only to feel full of doubts, that day the lord of Jingde County did not go to the Zhenguo Gong mansion for a banquet, Lin Chengyou forced the absolute saint and abandoned wisdom to pretend to be a maid to accompany him, today the county lord opened a poetry club in the palace, why did Lin Chengyou leave with confidence?
Xiao Yajian repeatedly warned three times, that thing was most likely evil, recently the demons of the Cai Feng Lou broke out of the array, Lin Chengyou could not not fortify inside and outside the palace, even the Qingyun Guan’s formation could not stop the evil Yu, what was the origin.
She took the embroidery from her cuff cage, covered the sword with it, and then wrote on Xiao Ya’s sword: “Come out, I have something to ask you.”
Xiao Yajian lay quietly under the embroidery, without the slightest reaction.
Teng Yuyi then wrote, “Oh, I know, you’re scared. Xiao
Yajian suddenly began to burn, expressing great disbelief.
“Not afraid? So why don’t you dare to come out.
Although
Du Tinglan already knew that this jade sword had a good understanding, he couldn’t understand Teng Yuyi’s actions and whispered, “Ayu, what are you doing?” Call
it out to help.
She waited patiently for a while, only to see the embroidery pad arch upwards, and something stood up inside, it was the little old man.
The little old man hid under the embroidery paw and walked along the body of the sword, and Teng Yuyi continued to cover up with the veil, writing: What is the woman?
Xiao Ya sat down cross-legged and wrote in Teng Yuyi’s palm, “I don’t know, neither a demon nor a demon nor a ghost.”
Teng Yuyi was a little surprised, and even Xiao Ya didn’t know its origin.
Why did this thing break into the Chengwang Mansion tonight? What the purpose is.
Xiao Ya: For you.
For me? Teng Yuyi almost dropped his jaw in shock.
Xiao Ya quickly wrote: This thing is another thing pressed under the Cai Feng Lou Formation, before that it broke out of the formation, somehow stared at you, I guess either it is related to the illusion you saw on the second floor, or blame you for hitting the gold-clad boy twice.
The Man in Gold? That handsome male demon with the flowers?
Going around and around, it is still related to the night of the Cai Feng Lou.
Teng Yuyi tried to calm his mind: That day the Absolute Saint said that this thing was most likely a corpse evil.
Xiao Ya was stunned: It turned out to be a corpse evil, no wonder I can’t guess her origin, this thing has clearly jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements.
Teng Yuyi: Although I only glanced at it once, I could also see that the thing was clearly in the form of a young girl, saying that she was transformed by a flower demon, which looked like a corpse evil.
Xiao Ya: Lady Teng, you don’t understand this, the corpse is not a demon, it looks lifelike, it can eat and drink, and it can walk in the sun, if you don’t probe its sniffles, you can’t see that it is a dead thing. Lady Teng, you are finished, the corpse evil is entangled in you, and you can’t hide from it.
Teng Yuyi’s scalp exploded: Don’t you tell me, no matter where I go in the future, this thing will come to me?
Xiao Ya’s pen is heavy and powerful: exactly what you think.
Teng Yuyi’s body was suddenly half cold.
Xiao Ya: If you don’t want to sit still, you can only think of her.
Teng Yuyi: Don’t laugh, the blind ancestor of the Eastern Ming Temple, how advanced his Daoist deeds were, in order to suppress this corpse evil and the golden-clad prince, he even lost his life. Now that this thing has broken through the ground, even the formation of the Chengwang Palace can’t stop her, what can I do?
Xiao Ya: Do you remember what I told you that day, I guessed that most of the time, you can reincarnate, most likely borrowed life. That night in the bamboo forest to deal with the tree demon, in order to save your cousin, and then in the Cai Feng Lou encountered two demons, unlucky is unlucky, but perhaps it is also your creation, after all, it is the big demon sent to the door, really can get rid of it, maybe you can break the curse of life.
Teng Yuyi: What do you mean by that, I will encounter demons later, just with a small sword? I don’t have the strength to bind the chicken, and when I encounter such a monster, it is impossible to give me a magic weapon.
Xiao Ya: Yes, you only have one Xiao Ya sword, but you are cunning and wise, this is not yet the beginning, how did you concede defeat in advance?
The two of them were silently communicating here, and the others in the flower hall were also whispering, when suddenly there was a strange scratching sound outside the window, as if something like a claw was slowly scratching the window edge.
Xiao Ya was shocked: Lady Teng, you ask for more blessings, that thing has been found, and then it is up to you.
